Shameful Actions

"So, what did you want to tell us, Twi? Why'd you bring us all to your library?" Applejack was panting, as well as Rainbow Dash (who was flying), and Rarity who'd trotted as fast as she could when Twilight asked them to come.

"Hold on, girls. Pinkie Pie isn't here yet."

"Tell her later, we're…" Rainbow began, but was interrupted by the pink pony arriving.

"Hey! Sorry I'm late but Mr. and Mrs. Cake wouldn't let me go until I was finish with a birthday cake for a costumer! It was for Lyra; did you know that her birthday is tomorrow? Anyway, she wanted a choco…"

"Alright, we get it, Pinkie! Now that we're all here, Twilight, will you tell us what you got us all together for?" Rainbow asked with an impatient tone.

"Rainbow Dash, don't be like that! Apologize to Twilight and Pinkie now!" The farmer pony said, hitting her marefriend on one of her hooves.

"Alright, alright! I'm sorry… Please continue…"

"No harm done, Dashie!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed as she hugged the cyan pegasus.

"I say the same, Rainbow Dash. Now, about the news…"

"Wait, where's Fluttershy?"

"I'm glad you asked, Rarity! Fluttershy, you can come in now!"

Fluttershy walked in from the kitchen with Spike at her side, smiling. She was wearing the engagement necklace, which Rarity was the first to notice. She shouted out in happiness and trotted towards her best friend, hugging her immediately.

"Congratulations, darlings! I am so happy for you! I couldn't help but cry when I saw the message in the sky last night!"

"Woah, woah, woah, woah… One thing at a time! What message? And is that necklace what I think it is?" Rainbow Dash questioned incredulously.

"You mean you didn't see the message, dear? And since when do you recognize jewels?" The fancy unicorn turned to see the cyan pegasus.

"Well, I fell asleep as soon as I found a nice cloud to lay on... I've always recognized different jewels, but I didn't think it was important to tell you." Rainbow crossed her hooves over her eyes.

"So, you're…engaged?" Applejack said, ignoring them.

"Oh, yes! Twilight proposed to me last night. It was so romantic; I didn't expect it at all!" Fluttershy was standing right next to her fiancée, nuzzling her cheek when she finished speaking.

"Congratulations, girls! I'm super happy for you! Wow, I have lots of parties I need to throw right now... I should start working on them soon!" The party pony put her hooves on her head.

"Why don't you mix Trixie's party and our engagement party into one?" Said the lavender unicorn.

"That's a great idea! Would you mind if I make yours after tomorrow? I have to do Lyra's birthday party first!"

"We don't mind, Pinkie. Don't worry!"

"Okie dokie lokie!"

"Congratulations! You two will be so happy together, ah' know it!" Applejack said while hugging her friends.

"Yeah, but I'm warning you, Twilight... If you break Fluttershy's heart, I'll break you!" The cyan pegasus said seriously.

"Thanks, but I wouldn't do that Rainbow. I'll treat her the way she deserves-with love."

"Group hug!" Pinkie shouted, pulling all of her friends together.

When the hug was broken, Twilight spoke again.

"And... We have another announcement to make! Honey, mind telling them?"

"Sure, love. Twilight and I have decided to live together, in my home!"

"R-Really?! When are you moving?" Rarity exclaimed in surprise.

"Right now! Would you mind helping us with moving?"

"We don't mind, sugarcube. We'll help you with the movin', right, Dashie?"

"Do I have to?" Applejack gave her an angry look. "Okay, okay… I'll help!"

"Me too!" Rarity said with a wide smile.

"Oh, oh, and me!" Pinkie Pie jumped with a grin.

"Wait, just one thing, Twilight… Are you going to leave me here alone?" Spike asked worriedly.

"Of course not, Spike. You're coming with us!"

"But what about the library?"

"Well… I hope you get used to waking up early."

"Earlier? Oh, come on!"

Everypony giggled.

"Now, come on, I've already packed. It's just a couple of boxes." Said Twilight.

"Just that? You sure?" Applejack questioned.

"Well, I really don't need much, and Fluttershy has everything at her cottage. I'm not taking anything from the kitchen since I am still coming here to work."

"I see. Well, let's get movin'!"

.

.

.

"Alright! Thanks for the help girls, see you later!"

"Come visit us later if you want. Once you're finished with the moving, I would love to see you! Oh, and tell me what you think of Lyra's cake!" Pinkie Pie said with her usual smile.

"I'll stop by later!"

"Yay!" She said before, quite literally, disappearing. Twilight always wondered how she was able to do that.

"Oh, before I forget..." Rainbow Dash began, "I'm about to go with the other weather ponies-it'll rain tonight!"

"Oh, good... So we'll actually get some sleep this time. And at least you warned us!" Rarity gave her a glare.

"Hey! I said I was sorry!"

"I was just walking out of the beauty parlor!"

"As if that place could help you…" The cyan pegasus whispered, but she was still heard.

"What did you say?!"

Their muzzles were only just inches away as they stared at each other angrily.

"Alright, that's enough! Dashie, apologize to her!" Applejack said, separating them.

"But, but…"

"Rainbow Dash, either you apologize, or you'll sleep outside with the rain tonight!"

The pegasus sighed and looked at Rarity. She spoke reluctantly, barely moving her lips to show her teeth.

"I'm sorry, Rarity… Can I go now?"

"Sure, sugarcube. Ah'll see yer later!" The cyan pegasus flew off at a high speed. "Sorry about that. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go apple bucking before it gets dark!"

"Alright, see you all later!" Said the lavender unicorn waving at her friends.

Twilight entered her new home and saw Fluttershy in the middle of the room.

"Welcome to your new home, Twilight! I already put your stuff in its place, but for one thing..."

The pegasus picked up the crystalline figure of them with her mouth from one of the boxes.

"I know the perfect place for it!" The unicorn took it with her magic and put it on one of the tables in the living room. "There. So, now everypony who comes in will see its beauty!"

The timid pony nuzzled her cheek.

"It's official. We're living together!" She looked at the gift she'd given to her fiancée.

"Yeah, I couldn't be happier! I'll write a letter to Princess Celestia and my parents. After that, we'll go out!"

"Okay!"

Twilight called Spike and had him write two letters. She put him in charge of the house and told him to look after Angel.

Twilight and Fluttershy walked into the the woods with their tails intertwined. It was so natural to do it now, since they'd done it for over a year. The timid pegasus decided to feed the animals while the bookworm pony, predictably, brought a book. Twenty minutes had passed when Spike came running, holding a piece of parchment.

"Twilight, you received a letter from Princess Celestia!"

"Really? Let me see!"

Twilight took the letter with her magic and read it with interest.

"Oh, that sounds great!"

"What is it, honey?" Fluttershy appeared from behind, surrounded by birds and squirrels.

"The Princess wants to visit us!"

"Really? Princess Celestia, here? When is she coming?"

"She just says soon; apparently she's too busy right now. She says that she will be sending me a letter before coming."

"Oh, I see… Well, I have to make sure to clean my house before she comes. I don't want her to come to a dusty place."

"Any letters from my parents, Spike?"

"Nope, I didn't receive any from them… Sorry, Twi…"

"That's strange… Why aren't they writing to me?"

"I'm sure they have an explanation, love… Don't worry, they'll write you soon…" Fluttershy put a hoof on her fiancée's shoulder.

"Yeah… I hope so…" Said the unicorn, putting her hoof on Fluttershy's. "It breaks my heart that I haven't hear from them in so long…"

Twilight hugged her soon-to-be wife, starting to cry in the process. "Why aren't they writing to me...? Why…?!"

Fluttershy just embraced her, crying a bit. The animals tried to comfort them, and Spike hugged them, too.

.

Meanwhile, at Twilight's former home…

Two unicorns, a stallion and a mare, were sitting in front of the fireplace. They watched how the piece of parchment was burning. The only visible part was the start of the letter, which read:

"Dear mom and dad…"

However, it soon turned into ashes.

"That pony keeps calling us mom and dad… How dares she address us like that after what she's done?!" The stallion spoke in rage.

"I don't know, dear, but I don't want to see her face again!"

"The Princess denied correcting her, so we have to fix this by ourselves. She's ruined our family tree-no member of our family has ever been with somepony of the same sex. She's ruining everything!"

"If she sees her mistake and apologizes, I might consider letting her back home, but if she doesn't… That's it!" The mare expressed her rage, too. "But how are we going to bring her to the right path again?"

"Where is the son of your best friend? You know, the one who once asked for Twilight's hoof."

"He's on a trip, but he can't communicate with anypony; he'll be back in a month."

"Then in a month we are going to visit her and make her realize the bad decisions she made."

.

.

It was nighttime when Twilight got back home. She told Fluttershy that she was going to visit Pinkie Pie, and was planning on telling her about Trixie.

"'Shy, I'm home, and glad that I made it before the rain!" Fluttershy came in from the kitchen.

"Oh, Twi, I was starting to get worried!" She gave her a quick kiss and hugged her before looking into her eyes. "What took you so long?"

"Well, you know Pinkie Pie… And I decided to pay Trixie a visit…"

"Oh, Trixie! I was thinking about visiting her, but I didn't know what to bring her…"

"You don't have to bring her anything, honey, just go and talk to her!"

"You know I'm not good with talking…"

"Then I'll go with you!"

"Okay… If it isn't a bother…"

Twilight kissed her. "You aren't. I wouldn't marry you if you were. You prepared dinner?"

"Oh, yes, I hope you like it! I made it especially for you…"

Fluttershy flew into the kitchen and brought three plates to the dining room. One of them had gems that Twilight had brought from the library, which was obviously for Spike. After that, she went to the kitchen again and brought vegetables, putting them on Angel's plate. Then, she went upstairs and came back with Spike and Angel following her.

"Yummy, time to eat. I'm starving!" Said the baby dragon as he sat at the table. "This is delicious! I've never tasted anything so good! Oh, I mean, besides your cooking, Twi!" He added after he saw Twilight looking at him.

"Thanks, Spike. I'm glad you like it."

After dinner and the dishes, the couple headed to their room while Spike headed to his bed in the living room. It started to rain while they were finishing eating.

"You know, Flutters… I was thinking about giving Spike his own room… I think he deserves one…" She commented on the bed while Fluttershy was about to accompany her.

"Twilight, I think so too, but I there isn't an extra room… When Sweetie Bell and her friends came here, I had to give them my room while I slept on the couch…"

"You ever considered adding a room to your house?"

"Our house, and now that you mention it… No… I never needed one until now, but it's very expensive to expand the cottage…"

"I have been saving for a while… I think we can afford it, I just need to check prices and my savings!"

"Really?"

"Yes, I did it in case of emergency… But Spike needs a room."

"That's nice of you, Twilight!" She said before yawning. "Now, I could use some sleep… And a better pillow..." She added before embracing her fiancée.

"You know… This also happened an year ago…"

"Another Déjà vu?" The pegasus giggled into Twilight's fur.

"Yeah… Strange, huh?"

But just as she embraced her back, she heard a sound coming from downstairs. It was a little like a knock.

"You heard that, Twi?"

"Yeah, who could it be at this hour, and in the middle of the rain?"

Both mares headed downstairs, seeing Spike rubbing his eyes, about to get up. Angel was sleeping with him, but didn't seem to notice the knock.

"Go back to sleep, Spike. We'll handle this." Said Twilight. The baby dragon nodded and went back to sleep.

When they got to the door, Twilight gave her partner a look, motioning for her to stand behind her. The unicorn opened the door and saw a pony that she couldn't recognize from the dark.

"Who are you and what are you doing here so late, especially in this weather?" The bookworm pony questioned. But before the mysterious visitor could speak, lighting flashed behind her, and for a brief moment the couple recognized the visitor.

"Rainbow Dash?" They said in unison.

"Please help me… Applejack and I got into a fight…" She said sadly.

Finally we got to see Twilight's parents and they have a plan, and will Rainbow Dash and Applejack make up? Find out soon! ^_^
