I am going to change Davis into a pony BUT there is something very very very special that comes along with it just bear with me okay? thanks :)
taz2723 : Don't listen to PS3concerned do what you want with the story it is yours, after all. Write for yourself not for the readers, write it as you see it not how others do, sure take advice from people that will help you get better but don't change the story completely just to make one person happy.
Thanks for that review, I was about to go out this morning for my first day in 4th year high school and reading this review made me calmer. Thanks taz :)
Luna and I sat there together, watching the fishes in the water swim. After a while of watching them, Luna stood up and said "Lets get back inside, you still owe me a performance." She winked and walked to the direction of the ballroom. "P-performance?" I mumbled and got up. Luna stopped and looked at me. "Oh yeah!" I remembered the promise I made to Luna.
Luna and I were now in the ballroom. Luna was surrounded by many ponies as soon as she stepped in. She was flooded with questions and I was pushed aside and eventually I pushed out of the crowd and just walked to Twilight and her friends who were now chatting away.
"Hey Davis! Where were you?" Sam greeted, a empty cup in her hand. "I was in the garden with Luna, why?" I replied. Sam snickered and continued "I gave Vinyl my iphone. She will play the songs when your ready."
"What songs?" I scratched my head in confusion, trying to remember. "You know! The songs in the playlist. You said that they were your favourite." My mind opened. "Oh yeah!" I knocked my head a few times. I think I am starting to become short term memory lost.
"Well? What are you waiting for? Vinyl's waiting!" Sam pushed me to stage. "W-wait!" I yelped nervously. I was now on stage. I sighed and walked over to Vinyl and I tapped my way to the playlist and I told Vinyl to play it upon my signal.
I grabbed the mic and the lights dimmed. Everypony now has their eyes on me. "Good evening everypony. How is everyone doing?" I asked and waited as the noise settles down before continuing. "Okay I am about to put out a performance and this first song is dedicated to the princess of the night!" I shouted pointing at Luna who was shocked at what I just said.
Everypony clapped and cheered and looked at Luna who was now smiling sheepishly. "This song is about how I wish that back in my world, I would have stayed up all night to admire the beautiful night sky." I smiled at Luna who was now blushing. I nodded at Vinyl and the song began to play.
(Ha! You guys should know this, I listened to it the previous chapter!)
You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep...
'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare...
I closed my eyes and placed my left hand on my chest.
I'd like to make myself believe...
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems...
Then I opened my eyes and continued. And when it came to the chorus the looked up and shouted...
I'd like to make myself believe!
That planet Earth turns slowly...
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep...
I opened my eyes and looked at Luna.
I'd like to make myself believe...
That planet Earth turns slowly...
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep...
I then help the mic with both hands and looked down and said more softer...
I'd like to make myself believe...
That planet earth turns slowly...
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep!
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams...
The music stopped and everypony cheered. Sam was in the front and shouted words of compliments. Luna was smiling at me. I smiled back at her. Then the next song began to play... Secrets.
After a few songs, Luna ran up to the stage and hugged me. "I really love you Davis!" She cried out loud, everypony heard her and there were awwwws and cheering in the ball. I smiled at blue eyes and kissed her on the forehead.
Luna and I went down the stage and to the food table I took a plate and cutleries and I asked Luna, who is standing beside me, looking around the table. "What do you want princess?" Luna giggled and pointed out to the foods on the table. I took some pieces and placed them on the plate.
I sat with Luna on a chair and watched everypony dance I put my right around around Luna as she chowed down on her food. I began patting her shoulder to the beat. I saw Twilight approach me. "Hey Davis. Having fun?"
"Best night of my life." I smiled. "Glad your having fun." She said, sitting down and leaning back, relaxed. "It was sweet what you did there." She whispered, her eyes focusing on the ceiling.
"Luna sure is such a lucky mare." She whispered, this time looking at me. I turned to Luna who was not listening and turned back to Twilight, "She deserves it." I brought Luna close to me, but she still continued eating, her cheeks were puffy from all the food in her mouth. I smiled at the cuteness.
"Anyway, being trapped in the moon for a thousand years IS heartbreaking and lonely." I whispered, looking deep into Twilight's eyes. Twilight nodded. "You know, back in my world I has this one girl who reminds me of her."
Twilight now had her ears up and now she was listening with full attention. I continued, "She was pretty and smart, but that did not make her popular in school. Even thought she looked so pretty, boys called her nerd and no girls want to hang out with her as she was always taking all their attention from the boys."
I leaned back and continued my story, "Well until I stepped in, we became very very good friends, she always used me as a shoulder to cry on, someone to rely on, someone who would take time to listen to her."
"You two were together as well?" Twilight asked, sitting up . "Well no, but we were like the bestest friends in the universe. I kind of have a liking on her, she was not like what they call her, she was not like a nerd, she looks like any normal girl, only prettier and smarter."
Twilight smiled, "Wow your such a friend to be with." I patted Twilight's head and continued, "I felt the pain that Luna feels, I always have this sense that makes me feel how other people feel. I feel the loneliness, the sadness of not having someone to talk to for a thousand years." I closed my eyes as they turned watery from what I just said.
Twilight nodded, "I know how it feels too... I am glad she met someone like you. Maybe that's why she is your partner."
Luna stood up and I stood up too, taking the plate from her mouth. "Let me, princess." I placed the plate on the tray of dirty dishes. "Thank you." Luna nuzzled me and I held my hands out and asked. "Wanna dance?" She blushed and put a hoof on my hand and we walked to the dance floor. Everypony stopped and looked at us.
I did not care and I just held Luna and danced with her, never taking my eyes off hers. Luna laid her head on my shoulder and we continued dancing. "Everypony is looking at us." Luna said nervously. I pulled her and looked at her in the eyes. "I dont care, as long as we dance together."
Luna smiled and we held each other tight and danced. The gem began to shine strongly against the dark surroundings and everypony gasped as they saw the glow of the gem.
I did not take my eyes off of my partner, we just danced long into the night...
Thanks for reading!

Ps I recommend you guys to read Trip of a Lifetime, that story, along with many more, inspired me to write this story but I did not copy exactly EVERYTHING! And if you guys want to see the story I told Luna at the castle, read Getting Even, it is also an awesome story.
