I had no idea what time it was when I next woke up, but when I did, I was covered in sweat and sandwiched between two pairs of breasts on either side of my body. Not exactly the worst way to wake up, admittedly. I looked about carefully, having a feeling that Chocolate Surprise and Shining Abyss may just be the type to sleep in rather sensitive ways. The two seemed relatively content with how they held onto me, though there were certain parts jabbing into me that managed to make me feel as though they were expecting another round. Not that I couldn't keep up with them, it's just that I wanted to be myself instead of anypony else during the day.

Carefully, I started to slink my way out of the bed and tried heading out to the bedroom, where I could then wash all the sweat and all manner of other smells stuck to my body. Unfortunately though, there were two pairs of arms and someone's third leg keeping me from moving in a rather comfortable manner.

"Come on, girls, let me go" I whispered as silently as possible, Chocolate and Shining both simply holding me tighter then, almost as if to spite me. I struggled and squirmed a little bit more before Shining eventually scowled and accidentally jabbed me in the horn before settling back to sleep a second later, and the sheer pain it gave me had me practically fighting back the tears in my eyes before suddenly remembering that I was a unicorn. I hadn't forgotten something like that since the first time I had gotten drunk in my life.

I soon flared my horn-ignoring the severe pain Shining unintentionally inflicted-and soon teleported out of my bed and into my bathroom, closing the door and sighing as I could finally return my body to normal, smiling at the mirror when I managed to see my reflection in it. I think that constantly being someone else was actually starting to make me prefer being me even further. I actually had a pretty face to begin with too, so that sort of made things a little bit weird.

I went over towards my shower and started up the warm water, needing to scrub the stink of sweat, sex, and other females out of my coat. It wasn't necessarily bad, but I'm pretty sure that my friends would raise some questions if they suddenly smelled unusual odors coming off of me.

While I let the warm water cascade down my naked body, I started to think a little bit more. I've been thinking a lot lately, and it's really starting to feel like the only thing that's really me is my mind. My whole body on the other hand....Well, it's simply that I'm starting to feel like I should be being myself more often, just to make sure that I don't lose sight of who I actually am. I looked down towards my cutie mark and gave it a smile, knowing for certain that no matter how I changed the way I looked, no matter what color my coat became, I would still be me in the end. I would still be Moondancer, and this cutie mark of mine would always be proof of that.

"That's right, I'm Mo-oooooohhhnnn!" I suddenly moaned out as I felt a pair of hands suddenly start caressing my breasts, smaller now but more sensitive than when I enlarged them. I peered around and found Shining standing behind me, looking as though she had her eyes closed as she sighed peacefully, rubbing along my sensitive nipples until suddenly frowning.

"Aw....Where'd you put your boobs?" she asked, her tone unusually slurred and slightly tired sounding. Was she sleeping? Even worse, was she sleepwalking? I looked back to her with a great blush on my face as I worried about her discovering my entire secret, so in a small panic, I tried to flare my horn and do something to make her feel more familiar. I couldn't do my entire body at the moment, it would take too long and she'd feel something was off, so I focused on expanding my chest until it filled out enough to match my alter ego's. It seemed to calm her down a little as she then smiled peacefully before resting her head on my shoulders.

"Oh, there they are, hehehe" Shining giggled, amazingly still asleep as she kept on groping my chest. I gave a small sigh of relief as it sounded as though she would remain asleep a little while longer, even with her body being sprayed by warm water. If anything, she would've woken up, she should've woken up. I'm not entirely certain how it was possible that she was still asleep here, but for the time being, I'm just going to write this down under 'unexplained miracles' and call it a day.

Shining kept on groping me for a moment before eventually snoring slightly, leaning her head down on my shoulder even further, snorting then as a little bit of water suddenly seemed to get into her nose, making her suddenly awake, and of course, it had to be right after I had opened my big mouth.

"Whoa....Where did I...?" Shining asked as she looked around, suddenly looking towards me as the gears in her head started turning. I myself was completely silent the whole time, thinking to myself just how I could possibly explain such a situation. Unfortunately though, with the way her eyes suddenly shot open, I wouldn't be able to think for much longer.

"Okay, who are you, and why am I in the shower with you?" Shining suddenly asked as she let go of me and gave us both some space in the tub, glaring at me as she demanded an answer.

"Oh, I'm....Moondancer...Cupid Moon's little sister. I'm kinda having some issues with the water at my own place, so I came here to take a shower while she went out for coffee" I lied, thinking that if I had managed to get this far with her buying my load of obvious bullshit, maybe I could get a little bit further with it. Shining just shot me a skeptical look as she openly eyed my entire body over, processing everything as her expression softened a little bit.

"Well, you two do have pretty familiar faces, and considering your boobs and all, it would make sense to say you were sisters....Still kinda weird for you to be doing this though" Shining eventually answered, setting my mind at ease as she suddenly stepped out of the shower and grabbed a hairdryer. While she dried her own fur off, I was finally left alone to shower in peace. It'd be so much worse if she had managed to figure things out for real, but thankfully for me, Shining didn't seem all that bright, despite her name. Obvious irony jokes aside, I wanted to make sure that I was as careful as could be with the rest of them, there was no telling what could happen if I was too careless today.

By the time I had gotten finished washing up and getting dressed in something basic, I had to change into something else altogether and then heading out to get some coffee with the small amount of time that I had, change my appearance into Cupid Moon again. Frankly, after last night and today, I had been considering staying as just myself instead of Cupid, and maybe for at least a couple of days. Thankfully, if Shining or the others had wanted to call me, I'd still be able to talk to them since my voice was the same as it originally was.

Walking in, I put on a smile as I saw the others all dressed and cleaned up and sitting around the living room watching TV, this time being something rather sensible as opposed to the porn that they were watching last night.

"Hey, look who finally showed up. After that weird encounter with your sister, I thought you were gone" Shining greeted, being the most friendly out of all of them from my studies.

"Yeah, I'm kinda early to rise and all. Just takes me a little while to properly get my coffee from the best place in town is all" I answered, giving a cute little giggle as things finally seemed to die down a little. For once, it actually managed to feel as though I was starting to live a slightly more regular life again as I sat down in my favorite recliner and took a sip of my coffee. I'd have to remember to really thank Bean Grinder later on.

"So, you're probably not gonna like it, but your sister decided ta use your shower while you were out" Shining then said, surprising me only a little as I had to suddenly give a fake scowl.

"I really do worry about her sometimes, I think she's having a little difficulty with money right about now or something. Either way, it's a problem" I said, thinking that I may have actually convinced her of what was actually true or not. It seemed as though she was certainly convinced, but I was starting to have some doubts.

"Interesting how you have tons of photos of her in your room, too. Not many with you in them though" Shining then said, making my blood suddenly run cold down my spine. Of course, I would leave some major flaw in my plan after everything else had managed to go so right for so long.

"W-Well, she has a ton of pictures of me at her house, so I guess it must just be something weird about the family habits or...I dunno, it's just how things seem to be" I answered, already feeling as though things were going even further away from the way I wanted them to be.

"It does seem weird, but I don't really think you should be prying into her life so much either, Shining" Chocolate suddenly said, making Shining roll her eyes.

"I'm not doing that, I'm just a little curious about it all" Shining answered, explaining herself and her actions in ways I probably should've been paying attention to.

"Maybe, but to me, it sounds like you're making her uncomfortable by asking so much about her" Chocolate then added, making me want to praise her even further than I already had been. Shining just sighed and then pinched the bridge of her muzzle, giving an annoyed scowl before silently returning to watching the TV without any worries. I didn't need to have this much anxiety about keeping a part of myself hidden, I only wanted to relax for the day and give Cupid a chance to rest. Maybe I should've been thinking a little harder before creating an entirely new identity for myself....

*knock-knock-knock*

...Or maybe I should've been considering making my usual hours at different times. I quickly stood up and awkwardly worked my way over to the door, hoping to myself that it would be something that I could genuinely handle. Unfortunately though, when I looked through the peephole and found Minuette and the girls standing there, I gave a heavy gulp and prepared for what would easily be the single most stressful day of my life.

Author's Notes:

Sorry for the random cliffhanger, I've been busting my ass to try and get these chapters out with how much of a block I've been having about this story.
