Going around the castle as I followed the maid I couldn't help but steal glances at some maids and guards walking around together or talking as they worked, cleaning and guarding respectively. "The princess is very lenient in her safety." I looked at the maid I was following as she spoke with a smile on her face. "If asked she allows the guard patterns and the maid cleaning areas to be with loved ones. About one fourth of the guards and maids are couples." I felt slightly saddened.

Nopony in their right mind would want to get together with a pony with eyes like mine… I quickly put a smile on my face as the maid looked behind me as we stopped in front of a room. "This is where you will be staying. Every hour guard positions and maids move around. They should be changing right now." I nodded as I walked in and started to look around the room. There were some magazines on a bookshelf which said bookshelf held one of every known category of books such as comedy and adventure. There was a window that could be opened and it showed the royal garden. Seeing it from the window made me smile sweetly as I sat down on the bed and looked towards my broken wing with a saddened look.

Being unable to work… would mean that my water and electricity bills would pile up with me not being there. I would need to find a job that I could do here in Canterlot but even then most of the nobles here own the shops and I'm not… very good at cooking. I'm able to clean slightly… I couldn't stand still to save my life…

And seeing all the couples…

I couldn't help but continued to feel saddened about everything. I've tried speed dating with the help of Rarity, never going to do that again, but once they see my eyes… they leave immediately leaving me to eat the food alone and to pay for the food already prepared for the speed date… soon hearing a knock at the door I grew a confused look on my face as I walked over to the door and opened it and I was stunned to see Fancy Pants here. "Mr. Fancy?!" he glared as I gave a sheepish smile. "I mean Fancy." He gave a loving smile.

"How are you doing?" he asked as I let him walk into the room. "I heard about what happened and getting conformation from the princess I figured I still might as well check on my wife and I's dear friend." I gave a small smile.

"I'm doing alright… worried about the small monthly bills as they pile up at home in Ponyville but I'm alright." Kind of alright.

"I feel like you're lying to me slightly Derpy." He closed the door as he led me over to the bed as we sat down. "What's wrong?"

"It's just… on the way here it brought up memories of my past… dating experiences between guard and maid here." He gave me a saddened look as he wrapped a hoof around me.

"Don't worry Derpy… my wife and I are behind you if you ever need some assistance. But now I have some good news to the bad news you must have heard." I looked at him confused as he gave a smile that told that I would love what he would tell. "Would you like to be our foal's godmother?" My eyes widened as my face turned into a fish imitation as he gave a short chuckle before getting slightly serious. "So… will you?"

"But why me? I'm not a good choice. I'll just botch up every time I have with the foal." He gave a sigh.

"It will help you for when you decide to settle down and have a foal. It would also mean you would have another reason to visit us more." I blinked a few times before hugging Fancy Pants as he chuckled. "So I guess that this is a yes?"

"Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!" I said as this was possibly one of the best moments in my life.

"Fleur will be happy to hear that you said yes. If you didn't her pregnancy hormones might of acted up and she would of hunted you down and asked why herself." I couldn't help but giggle a little at the thought. Her running around all red faced just looking for an explanation. After hearing of when Fancy forgot to tell her he was going on a business trip and coming back a week later I had no doubt that that's what she would do.

Hearing it from Fancy though… made it sound like they were still a couple as they had makeup sex after only 10 minutes… that part I heard from Fleur as it still caused me to blush. Soon another knock was on the door. "Uh Derpy?! It's me your boss!" I was confused as to why he was here. Fancy opened the door as he walked in. "I heard what happened from the princess. Then heard it again from the guards assigned to you. Not many Pegasus are able to walk after a tree collapses onto them." He said. "You were always one of the more lucky ones."

"Maybe it's because it's an everyday… occurrence?" he gave a laugh as I searched for the right word.

"Yes it is. I came to let you know that well… I will have to find a temporary Pegasus able to take your route… but me and the princess had come to an agreement. To still at least earn some income on every morning train at 6 the mail for Canterlot will be sent on it and left with the guards posted there for when you come and get it soon." I gave a nod. "When I arrive back in Ponyville I will keep an eye on your home."

"What about the bills?" I asked.

"I will pay for those for now. This just means it comes out of your injury payment while you heal as it had built up for a long time." I gave a smile as I nodded. "Well today has been a long day and you need your rest Derpy… the princess will have a maid wake you up tomorrow for your Canterlot route."

"Yes I must be leaving to notify Fleur of the good news." Note Sender smiled as they both left the room as I looked out the window to spot the sun starting to go down… giving a sigh I closed the window and prepared for bed. Slightly happy to still be able to earn some income tomorrow… but the memory of the couples still playing out through my mind.
