The chariot landed outside the train station, as Twilight had spotted the rest of our friends waiting on the platform and asked the guards pulling us to land there. As we did I leapt out of the chariot and kissed the ground.

"Solid land!" I exclaimed happily. "It is so good to feel you again!"

"Oh come on." Twilight giggled. "Chariots aren't all that bad. I didn't have any problems with it. Then again... you are taller than me, so I can only theorise that your centre of gravity is different than mine, which is why you kept sliding around in there."

I shrugged and kissed the ground again, only to stop when several shadows converged over me. I looked up to find John, Ace and the girls looking back at me with bemused looks on their faces.

"Oh sorry, Geo." John said. "Is this a bad time? Would you like us to leave while you make out with Mother Nature?"

"Very funny, John." I laughed sarcastically as I stood up and dusted myself off. "But after spending nearly an hour sliding around a cramped chariot a few thousand feet above the ground... I think I've earned the right to make out with the dirt."

John cackled and slapped me on the back as everyone else gathered around.

"So how did it go?" Ace asked. "Was Twilight's family pleased with the news, or did the sudden bombshell obliterate their minds?"

"Oh hell." I said. "Where do I begin? Well first of all, Twilight's brother took an instant dislike to me. And when we told everypony about the engagement her parents passed out and he smacked me upside the head, knocking me onto my arse."

Everyone gasped.

"But after I came to we managed to convince him, with some help from his wife, that I was a good guy. Then we woke the parents up and pretty much told them the same thing. It took a while, but I won 'em round in the end."

"... Then I got interrogated about wedding plans for over two hours. I was thankful to leave, because my arse was numb from sitting still for so long. But to my surprise we weren't done, as Twilight dragged me off to the Castle to see the Princesses and tell them the good news as well!"

"They appreciated it, and I got to talk to Luna about some stuff for a while as well. And then we came back here... and I think I can safely say that you know the rest."

Silence greeted me as I finished talking. Eventually John burst out laughing. He waved a finger at me as he spoke.

"Nice one, Geo." He said. "You almost had me there. You're just playing another joke on us, like you did this morning. Now seriously, what actually happened?"

Twilight and I groaned.

This is going to take a while.

It took half an hour, but eventually we got everyone to believe what I was saying. Rainbow Dash burst out laughing at Shining Armour's impromptu punching party, while Pinkie Pie seemed more interested in the fact that the wedding was going ahead. She rattled off page after page of ideas which I eventually just tuned out, although I did notice Ace listening to her with rapt attention.

Rarity was ecstatic about making a dress, but seemed upset when Twilight said that she would just wear her Gala dress instead. After a bit of cajoling, Twilight eventually agreed to let Rarity be her manestylist and her Mare of Honour.

The rest of the girls were told they would be bridesmaids, which pleased them immensely. Since I didn't want to choose between them, I told Ace and John that they would be my Best Men.

With everyone content, Twilight and I said our farewells and headed back to the library after a busy day. Spike was happy that the wedding was going ahead but declined any major role, saying that he'd simply prefer to watch.

I got undressed and flopped onto the bed next to my fiancée. She kissed me tenderly and we both snuggled up together.

"I can't wait for our big day." I said eagerly. "Being married to you is going to be fantastic."

"Mmm, yes." Twilight replied. "I just hope we can get everything organised on time! There's the catering, the decorations, my dress, your suit, the invitations, the entertainment, the—"

I put a finger to her lips to silence her before she went off on another checklist rant. I gazed deep into her eyes and smiled, hoping to reassure her that everything would be all right. Thankfully she understood and nodded.

"Sorry." She mumbled. "But you know how serious I am about my organisation. I just want our perfect day to be... well, perfect."

"And it will." I replied. "Our friends are helping us, Twi, and they're not going to let us down. Our big day will be the best one we've ever experienced, I promise."

"I know it will." Twilight paused for a moment before she grinned, her eyes going half-lidded while she bit her lower lip. "I just hope that the honeymoon is even better."

"Oh that?" I waved a hand dismissively. "That's a given. But if you're not sure... why don't we get some practice in?"

"Sounds good to me." Twilight giggled. "They say that you shouldn't rush perfection... so let's take it easy, shall we?"

"We've got all the time in the world, my dear." I said as I pulled the covers over us. "All the time in the world."

For the rest of the evening no more words were said, as we were once again united in love.

How many Geoverse stories don't end with sex?

Seriously, I genuinely want to know.
