No means no
Chapter 13: Time to think.
Previous Chapter Next ChapterLooking up at Celestia while I sat down. "You know you're really putting me on the spot here." I said.
"I realize this, I know that you and I have had a lot of differences. I respect any decision that you come up with."
"I don't like being forced into a decision, god only knows how much my brain has been fucked up already." I sighed.
"What do you mean?" Celestia asked.
Shit I thought to myself I had to let it slip. "You might want to take a seat, because this is going to be a very emotional story."
"What is it?" Celestia asked.
"Before I start can I at least talk to the real you? Not Sunny something or another?" I requested.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Celestia said and changed back into her alicorn form. "Is that better?"
"Much, thank you." I took a deep breath before I continued. "I know I might seem elusive, off-putting, and practically an asshole all around but there's a reason for that."
"Why is that?"
"Because I have a hard time trusting people, or ponies, pretty much anything that talks to me. I've had my trust broken before, and it's not fun. I've been.............. I've been the victim of sexual abuse, or more specifically rape."
"What?" Celestia was shocked. "H-how did this happen?"
"It was a long time ago, back in my world. When I first lost my parents, I had nowhere else to go and I was put in a foster home." Taking another deep breath I continued. "I thought that the family was nice at first and I honestly trusted them. They had a daughter, I couldn't remember her name for the life of me. It doesn't matter, anyways one day when the parents left I was home with their daughter and she said she wanted to play a game in her room. I was young at the time and was gullible, I didn't even know what sex was. She said she wanted to play a game where I was tied up to her bed with my clothes off. She then proceeded to.......Rape me." I finished and proceeded to break down and cry. Celestia rushed over and hugged me, I was the shell of what my shield was the shield that I put up so that I would never be hurt like that again.
"Shh, it's okay no one will ever hurt you like that again." Celestia comforted me. "I'm sorry that ever happened." Her hands wrapped around my head smothering me in her huge as hell boobs. If I would make a guess at the cup size it would be at least triple X, but that didn't matter to me right now. She wasn't being a princess she was being a friend, she was being Celestia.
"She-She, just used me." I bawled. "I told everyone still they didn't believe me." I continued.
"I'm sorry you had to experience that, and I'm sorry I put you in an uncomfortable situation. She can't get to you anymore."
I brought myself together as quickly as I could and wiped my eyes. "Listen I just don't know if I can give you an answer without consulting my herd mates first. You understand right?" I asked Celestia.
"I understand Mickey, I'll agree with whatever decision that you and your mates reasonably come upon." Celestia squeezed me.
"I gotta ask though, what made you realize that you were in love with me?" I asked.
"Do you want the honest truth?" Celestia asked and I nodded. "It's because you don't treat me like a princess, you treat me like an equal. It's something that I haven't seen in a long time." I just started to chuckle. "What is so funny?" She asked.
"It's funny because of the history that forged my country raised me to treat everyone as an equal."
"Could you explain?" Celestia asked.
"It's a document called the Declaration of Independence, it goes a little something like this. When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." I said proudly.
"That's certainly a mouthful, how on earth did you memorize that?"
"The internet mostly, it's a worldwide system of information that anyone on the planet could access." I said. "It makes life a lot easier but still books are better in my opinion."
"Do you mind if I take some of the ideas that you have just stated?" Celestia asked. "The last part more specifically, the part where everyone is created equal?"
"Why?" I asked.
"I didn't want to bring this up, but you told me your secret so I'll tell you mine." Celestia took a deep breath. "I just don't want to be the princess anymore."
That certainly piqued my interest. "How come?"
"Thousands of years doing the same old thing gets pretty boring after the first century." Celestia said."The subjects have the best intentions for my sister and I but it has been many years since I've ever had some down time."
"I get it, you can drive yourself insane doing the same thing over and over again." I nodded still wiping the remaining tears from my eyes.
"I don't want to be the princess anymore, I'm not going to make this decision for Luna. This is a personal decision, in truth I was training Twilight to take my place. Then when I see her with you, I can see the spark of love in her eyes. It's something I've sorely missed, then you come along with your take no shit from no one attitude and you made your home in one of the most dangerous places in the world and make it look like it's nothing."
"When we first met it was a bad day for you, when I decided to do what I did you hated me for it. What changed?" I asked.
"I hated it because there was so much about you, and I couldn't control or try to manipulate to get it in my favor. It was like facing the god of stubbornness, there was absolutely no way to convince you that I was right. That's when I realized that I was in love with that fact about you, I hated it at first. Then I took a moment to look at it from your perspective. If I were lost in a strange land with no one wanting to help me and just use me like a tool I would be pretty pissed too. That's what changed, Mickey I may never hold a special place in your heart for all the things I've done. That's okay, I wanted to let you know that no matter you decide I will always be in love with you."
"Wow, I- just wow. That what you really feel about me?" I asked and she grabbed my hand pressing it against her heart.
"This heartbeat that you feel, will forever be yours. I've been courted before and I lusted after my suitors, but I have never felt like I loved them. Then you came along and almost every time I think about you my heart skips a beat. I have always been waiting for this feeling of love." Celestia brought me closer to her, "How do you feel about me? Please don't beat around the bush about this." Celestia looked me in the eye.
"When we first met I didn't know what to think, considering I was still confused and didn't know what to think. I thought that you were going to be my saving grace, I may have been strange looking and different but it looked like that you were going to be that light at the end of the tunnel. Then we had our falling out, it took me some time to carve my place in the forest. I realized that you were trying to help your race but I knew that there was a better way of doing that." I took a deep breath. "To be honest when we made up I thought that we were going to be great friends, you were someone that I could trust. Then you come here and you confess these feelings for me and I just get confused even more." I looked at my hand still over her heart. "I feel your heartbeat I can tell that you have those feelings and that you mean what you say." I smiled and took her hands in mine. "I can't find it in my heart to hate you or love you right now. I just need some time, please." I said and she nodded.
We both stood up and I showed her to the door before she left Celestia said something. "Mickey I know this probably won't sway your decision, but I want you to know that Twilight isn't the only one that can grow a stallionhood." She winked.
"Good night Celestia." I said and closed my door, locking it once more. I went back up to my room but I didn't sleep a wink. I was to buried in the thought of having a princess as on of my herd mates. I just stared at my ceiling and the Hawkeye's bird nest, "I don't know if I can sleep on this, all of the power of royalty within my grasp." I reached my hand up. "She doesn't want to be royalty anymore though, she wants the chance at a normal life." I turned my head and looked off into the distance of the crumbled castle. "I......I just don't know."
