ONE MONTH LATER:

“C’mon Twilight… It’s your coronation. You should be happy!” Spike said enthusiastically, hopping up into my lap.

I smiled and hugged him. “I am, it’s just a lot to take in.” I said.

“They’re waiting for you to give a big speech. You uh… have a speech prepared right?” Spike asked.

“I’ve had a month to prepare, don’t worry about me.” I laughed.

The door to the room cracked open and Dash peeked in. “How much… longer…” She said, seeming as if she was straining.

I raised an eyebrow. “You okay Rainbow Dash?” I asked.

“Great… I’m just… holding back…” Dash grunted.

“Do you have to pee?” Spike asked.

Rainbow Dash shook her head.

“Tell us what’s wr-” I was cut off as Dash fell into the room as Cadence forced her way past. My face lit up with joy the moment I saw her. I jumped up and hugged her, the two of us giggling and laughing in excitement.

“I’m so happy for you!” Cadence said.

“I am too… Just a little nervous.” I chuckled quietly.

“Who wouldn’t be? I know you’ll ace it though.” Cadence smiled. Her arms wrapped around me and embraced me tightly.

“I know… thanks for being here.” I said.

“I wouldn’t miss it for the world. Your brother is here too… somewhere.” Cadence rolled her eyes.

“If I know him he’s probably at the food court.” I laughed.

“That man eats like a horse, but makes up for it with all the work he does.” She sighed. “He’s so sweet… and strong.”

“If you’re going to delve into your sex life… I’ll just step out now.” I joked. I waited for a moment, just staring at Cadence, waiting for a laugh or something. “Y… I’ll just… go.” I mumbled.

“Are you sure? Did you know your brother’s favorite fetish i-”

“NO NO NO NO NO NO!” I shouted, sprinting out of the room with my hands over my ears. I made it a ways out before I uncovered my ears. I could hear Cadence cracking up in the distance and sighed. I turned my head back and realized I was in the throne room… and everyone was here, and staring at me. “Oh um… hi.” I waved slowly.

“About damn time.” Dash said, tapping her foot on the floor impatiently.

“Now now Rainbow Dash… she only gets coronated once. She simply had to look her best!” Rarity said.

“Yeah yeah…” Dash rolled her eyes.

“C’mon now, she’s been through a lot. It’s only right that she takes ‘er time.” Applejack said, elbowing Dash in the arm.

I was about to say something when I felt someone jump onto my back, clinging tightly to me. “This is the best day ever!” Pinkie cheered happily.

“Pin… kie… I didn’t… get… physically… stronger…” I grunted, my legs shaking as I lost the strength to stand, tumbling to the floor. All I heard was Pinkie giggling as she rolled off of me and into Applejack, sending her to the floor with Pinkie. I sighed and stared up at the ceiling.

“It’s going to be hard to give your speech down there.” A familiar voice said. My attention shifted immediately to Shining Armor, who was standing over me with a hand extended.

“BBBFF!” I shouted, teleporting myself into a hug.

“You sure… you’re not… stronger?” Shining grunted. I released him and started laughing.

“Sorry.” I smiled.

“I’m so proud of you little sis…” Shining smiled. His arms wrapped around me in a warm, brotherly embrace.

“I’m so happy you’re here… you’re all here. I don’t know if I could do this without you.” I said, looking up at Shining, then over to everyone else.

“We wouldn’t dream of missing this.” Red said, putting an arm around Cecil.

“Nngh… yeah.” Cecil groaned from the obviously painful grip around him. Cecil grabbed Red’s arm and twisted it around his back.

“You wanna play?” Red challenged. He fell backwards, forcing a grunt from Cecil as he hit the floor and landed on top of him.

“They okay?” Shining asked.

“Yeah… they just fight a lot. Not like… hate driven or anything. They’re a lot like Applejack and Rainbow Dash… always competing.” I chuckled.

“I’m stronger… I should… be winning this…” Red grunted in a strained tone as his leg was forced into a leg lock.

“Strength has nothing to do with leverage.” Cecil stated.

“You’re like a… worm…” Red groaned loudly, struggling violently against Cecil’s hold.

“Why don’t we stop before someone get’s too hurt…” Fluttershy suggested.

“I’ll be fine sweetie. Just d-” Cecil was cut off as Red twisted him around and pulled Cecil into a headlock.

“Sleeper hold. I win.” Red said.

“Crph...tpgkr… Bnnglphg…” Cecil sputtered.

A purple aura illuminated the two of them and pulled them apart. “That’s enough.” I stated.

“But I was winning…” Red mumbled.

“Honestly… you two are like little kids sometimes.” I sighed, shaking my head.

“Princess Twilight.” A guard said as he approached me.

“Yes?” I asked, releasing Red and Cecil, allowing them to slam back against the floor.

“Princess Celestia and Princess Luna are waiting for you on the balcony.” The guard said.

“Thank you… come on girls, lets go.” I said.

About an hour passed. I gave a speech, and in my opinion it really meant a lot. My friends were there, this was a momentous occasion but… It just wasn’t complete. Like a 500 piece puzzle, and you only have 499 pieces. There was a disappointment that had been looming along side me the entire time that I had grown to live with. I made my way back to my new chambers in the castle, leaving the party behind. I just wanted to lie down.

“Hey Twilight! Where you off to?” Celestia’s voice echoed down the hall. I turned to see her, striding towards me in her usual decorum.

“I just need some time alone is all. I won’t be gone the entire party don’t worry…” I said with an almost forced smile. It would have been fully if it hadn’t been for the soothing and warm aura of the Princess filling the corridor.

“I just wanted to see if you were alright. You seem a little distracted.” She said caringly. I could tell she was worried about me, but there wasn’t anything anyone could do.

“I’m fine Princess. I just need to think about a few things. I’m a princess now remember? No matter how much time you have to get used to it, it just always has a way of… surprising you.” I shrugged.

A smile filled Celestia’s face, seeming to brighten the entire room. “Alright. Just know that I will always be here if you need to talk.” She said. “Oh, and you forgot this.” She handed me the crown I had tried as hard as possible to dismiss. I sighed and took the crown, looking back up at her beaming expression.

The smile seemed to spread to me, making me feel a little better. “I know… and I’ll always be grateful. Thank you.” I said, exchanging a hug before she walked back out into where the party was taking place. I continued to walk down towards my room, spotting the door moments later. I wonder how much rest I can get in before Pinkie bursts in and drags me back. I let out a small chuckle from the thought alone before I pushed the door open. My expression changed to utter shock, my eyes widening. I heard a metallic clanking, now realizing that I had lost the grip on the crown and it had fell to the hard floor of my chambers.

---------------------------------------------------

The Hive: Sam’s POV

“The breeding pods are ready my king.” The changeling said.

“That’s great! Make sure the younglings are well fed.” I instructed. The changeling nodded and flew off down one of the many tunnels. I turned back to the bedside that Chrysalis was lying on. It hit me that something was off about her. She seemed sad. I don’t know if it was purposeful, but she was facing away from me. I approached the bed and sat down.

“What’s wrong?” I asked, tenderly rubbing my hand across her arm. My touch seemed to only make the tension in her grow.

“I’m fine…” She mumbled.

“You’re not fine.” I stated. She looked up at me, almost looking depressed.

“No matter how hard I try… I always fail in the end.” She said quietly.

“What do you mean?” I asked curiously. She stayed silent for a few moments.

“Have you noticed anything different around here since last month?” She asked.

“Like what?” I questioned.

“Like the changelings making a lot of trips out of the hive.” She said.

“What about it?” I asked.

“They’re searching for food.” She said quietly. I paused for a moment as the information processed.

“But I’m here… so why…” I mumbled.

“It’s hard to feed off of love, if there is none in the first place.” She said.

“No no no… I love you I swear, I just ne-” I was cut off by her hand.

“Stop… just stop.” She said, closing her eyes. “You might love me… but you love her more.”

I stayed absolutely silent, staring down at the floor.

“Sam…” She said, sitting up and looking at me.

“I’m so sorry…” I said apologetically.

“Don’t be…” She sighed, wrapping her arms around me tightly.

“What will happen to the hive?” I asked worriedly.

She shook her head and smiled. “We’ll get by. We always do.” She cooed, grabbing my hand gently. “Don’t worry about us. But you…”

“I?” I questioned.

“I love you. And I only did what I did because I was afraid that you wouldn’t want to come back. But it seems now that it doesn’t matter.” She sighed.

“Chyssie.” I started.

“There’s no point in you being here if you aren’t happy. And I know you’ll be happy with her… as much as I disapprove, and am boiling with anger.” She stated. “I want you to be happy…”

“I can be happy here too.” I said.

“No you can’t. Just please… don’t make this any harder than it has to be.” She said in a pained tone, looking away from me. Her attention was snapped back to me as I pulled her into a hug.

“I love you.” I said softly.

“I… I know…” She said.

“Thank you.” I smiled, pulling back and looking her in the eyes. “I mean… I’m sad this is happening and… no not… Can I un-thank someone?”

Chrysalis chuckled and shook her head. “Just shut up.” She said. I gave her a kiss, one that lasted longer than it should, but not at all inappropriate. I stood up and started walking towards the door, pushing it open and stopping. I’m going to be with Twilight again… Will she even want me back? There’s only one way to find out… “Don’t think I won’t visit. This place is my home t-” I stopped mid-sentence when I looked back. Chrysalis was looking down, a hand rubbing slowly back and forth along her stomach. She had a large smile on her face.

“What are…” I mumbled. Before I could say anything else, I was blinded by a bright green flash, forcing my eyes shut. My eyes opened to find a rather lavished and well furnished room. A bed with silk sheets, a desk with a journal, inkwell and quill. And many stacks of books lined around it. “I…” I started.

CLANK.

I turned my head to the sound of the metallic clatter. On the floor was a… crown? My gaze shifted slightly to see a foot next to it. Not only was it a foot… but there was a leg attached to it. I followed the slim figure’s body up until I saw.

“Twilight?” I exclaimed, wide eyed and full of both surprise and happiness. I stood up and smiled. “I’m glad you’re here. Where is here by the way? Oh I’m getting distracted again… I do that a lot. There was something I wanted to ask y-” I was cut short by my own ears, hearing soft, barely audible sobbing. It was then that I noticed the tears rapidly covering her cheeks. I quickly rushed over and embraced her, seeming to have timed it perfect as she collapsed into me, bursting into tears as I felt her face press into my chest.

“Hey hey… I’m right here…” I said softly.

“Sa… Sam…” She sputtered between whimpers.

“I’m never going to leave again… never…” I stated, my whole body beginning to shake.

“What… about the hive?” She sniffled.

“Everything is fine. They don’t need me anymore… I just hope that… you… haven’t moved on…” I said, nearly cringing as I spoke. “If you don’t want me back I… I’m fine with that… I just wanted you to know that… no matter what you choose… I will always love y-” I was cut off as her lips unexpectedly made contact with mine. I stood there, eyes wide open and frozen in place. She pulled away just in time to see the water brimming in my eyes slide down my face.

“I’ll always... choose you…” She smiled through another wave of tears.

“I love you…” I stammered shakily.

“I love you too…” She said, our lips touching once more. The tears on our faces mixed as we left the world behind us, reality simply slipping to the side as our fates were solidified by a kiss. A simple, meaningless thing… But at this instant, this single solid sliver of time ... Was the most important moment of my entire life.

“I want you…” She panted as she pulled away.

“I need you…” I stated, pulling her against me and pressing my lips to her neck, enticing a moan from her. She quickly slid her clothes off and continued to exchange kisses that were each more passionate than the last. As soon as I hit the bed we were both completely naked, falling onto the bed in each other’s arms. Her hands were all over me, unable to make up their mind.

“I want…” She mmumbled.

“Shh…” I said, putting a finger to her lips. “We have all the time in the world.”

She gasped as my dick slid eagerly into her dripping slit. “I love you…” She said.

“I love you.” I said. We both moaned in unison as I slowly pushed into her. A heat that I had almost forgotten about immediately engulfed my body. “W… wow…” I grunted.

“I… I’ve been… so lonely… without you.” She groaned as I continued to slide the first half of my length into her hungry depths.

“You don’t deserve… to be alone…” I said as I hilted the rest of myself into her in one thrust, her back arching from pleasure alongside the loud moan. I reeled back and started to thrust at a slow but steady pace, our pleasure mixing through the room from the scent of our sexes. Each thrust only grew easier as the pre-cum my dick was spurting only increased, coating her walls in torrents of lubricating pleasure.

“You… must really… have missed me…” She panted.

“More than you can imagine…” I grunted. My hands slid down to her hips, sliding between her and the sheets before massaging her ass gently.

“Oh Sam…” She moaned. Her hips bucked away from my hands almost reflexively, slapping our hips together noisily. This only seemed to drive me to rut her harder. I held her down as my thrusts grew in strength, roughly hammering into her every time.

“Twi...light… I have to… ask something…” I said in an almost strained tone as I halted my thrusts, my balls visibly swelling as they were denied.

“What is it?” She asked, staring up at me with a confused expression on her face. Her hips started grinding back and forth, nearly pushing me over the edge before I forcefully held her still.

“There’s a reason you… haven’t gotten pregnant… all the other times we’ve had sex…” I started.

She looked at me with an almost curious gaze, waiting for me to speak again. I took a breath in as I finally cooled down slightly. “If you don’t want to… then it won’t happen…” I said.

“How does that work?” She asked, seeming a little more intrigued.

“I don’t have enough time to go into details right now… it’s getting really… hard to hold back…” I grunted as I felt her pussy tighten a little.

“Okay…” She said.

“I want to be with you… for the rest of my life… and as strange as marriage proposals go… I don’t have a ring. And I… I want…” I panted.

“What is it Sam?” She questioned, her face flushing a bright shade of red as she already knew the answer.

“I want to have kids… I want you so bad… I love you… I need you… Let’s start a famil… ly…” I smiled.

Twilight looked away for a moment, seeming lost in thought. “Well… Dash and Fluttershy are starting families… I don’t see why we should be left out.” She said, sharing the same smile that only made mine grow more, along with certain other parts. She gasped loudly. “Sam I… Oh god…”

It was that moment that I realized my dick had grown unconsciously, the head now kissing her cervix and filling her womb with the profuse amounts of pre drooling out. “Sorry!” I said apologetically. She pulled me down and I lied overtop of her. Her breasts pressed into my chest. I could feel her breath on my face before our lips touched one final time. That was my cue, my hips now beginning to thrust once more.

Twilight’s wings extended as I felt her pleasure rippling around my member, desperately milking it and drawing me in more and more, the pressure of my head against her cervix increasing. “Twilight… I’m going… to fill you so full of babies…” I moaned, pressing my face into her neck after pulling away from the kiss. My thrusts increased in speed, pounding her depths roughly as the entrance to her womb weakened. She shook violently with each thrust. Twilight’s head fell limply and her eyes rolled back. Her tongue lolled out and she started looking more of a mess, which only encouraged me to pump her full.

“SAM!” She screamed, her entire body tensing up. Her arms tightened around me the moment I felt her second orgasm hit, spasming around my dick as it pierced into her womb. I felt my release quickly making it’s way out as the virile, hot, frothy seed engulfed the head of my dick, drowning it inside her own womb. I could feel her stomach pressing against mine as her midsection slowly ballooned out.

“Oh Sam…” She gasped.

“All for you… My Princess.” I smiled.

“My Prince…” She mumbled, her hand sliding tenderly against my cheek. It was at this moment that I knew, we would never be apart again. Whether it was the fact I was still cumming, or that I loved her more than life itself… I wouldn’t ever leave her.

“Sam… I th- Guh!” She groaned as her stomach lurched forward from my last load.

“I love you too.”
