"Is Fluttershy okay?!" Rainbow Dash demanded to Discord. He stared at her with a look of exaustion on his face.

"Fluttershy did all the work, why are you so tired?" Twilight Sparkle asked him.

"She's very weak and the doctors aren't sure yet if she is going to make it..." he trailed off as he looked past the mares.

"Sugarcube, I'm sure Fluttershy will be fine, did she have a draconequus?"

"No, a pony, I mean I haven't really seen her yet but..."

"HER!!!! FLUTTERSHY HAD A FILLY!!!!! OOOOOOH!!! CAN I SEE PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!!!!!"

"Rarity!!! Calm down, Discord is dealing with a lot right now, I think we need to go in and see Fluttershy."

"The doctors wouldn't let me in, what thinks they will let you in!" Discord snapped at Twilight

"I'm a princess they have to let me in, I can do some evil things." She went up to the door and went into the room with the doctors bowing to her. She said something that Discord didn't catch and the doctor shook his head.

"I'm sorry Princess Twilight Sparkle, but we aren't allowed to let anyone in."

"But you're letting me in. Why can't you let Fluttershy's husband in?"

"HUSBAND!!!!"

"Well, yeah, they've been married even since she's known about her foal."

"Oh, in that case, he can come in, just make sure he doesn't touch anything!!!"

"Will do! Come on Discord!!!" Discord's eyes lit up and he gingerly followed the purple alicorn into the room. Everything was so crampd in the room, but his eyes never left his beautiful wife, even asleep she was beautiful, so peaceful looking. The only time he left her out of his sight was when he saw the crib right next to her. An earth pony, a light pink earth pony at that. White and purple hair, kind of like Pinkie Pie's rolled up next to her. My sweet little Screwball has come back to me, I loved her until she left me and never came back, but seems now instead of completely chaotic, she's kind too, I'm going to have to get her, her cutie mark, somehow... She's not created by my magic so I'm not sure how she'll get her... Why am I thinking about this now?! Fluttershy's eyes were open when he looked back to her face.

"Dis-" her voice faded when she tried to finish his name.

"Hush now, my dear, I'm here now."

"Why wer, not here." she fought for breath.

"They didn't know I was your husband," he rolled his eyes then put up his paws,"No more comments from you, save your beautiful voice." Fluttershy rolled her eyes then motioned for him to come to her.

"What my dear?" He walked over to her and she pulled him on top of her and kissed his head.

"You know what I should do to you for that?" She nodded and pressed her lips against his. Twilight stared at them in awe then looked out the window. I just wish Flash and I didn't break up, and over something stupid too. Why did I have to mention marriage, he told me he wasn't ready.

"Twilight? Is something wrong?" Discord asked her.

"Only a little."

"We've got time."

"Well, me and Flash broke up last week over me mentioning marriage, which made him uncomfortable and we broke up also, because of another argument over..."

"Over..." Discord pressed

"Over you and Fluttershy!!!!"

"What about?"

"Well he started talking about how you guys look so weird as a couple and as your friend, I was defending you, then he started yelling at me and well, we kind of quit talking after I stormed out."

"You needn't defend us Twilight. I am perfectly fine with that job."

"But-"

"Ah, ah, ah young princess, no buts, as I said, that's my job, and I'm fine with doing it."

"How could you be fine with it?"

"Because I'm used to it, the flinching, the stares, this, that, and the other."

"Well, that makes since but-"

"What did I jst say Princess?"

"Nevermind then,"

"Very well," Discord turned his attention back to Fluttershy, even in her sleep she looks so beautiful, so calm and peaceful, just like me, or so she said.  He shook his head and smiled at his thoughts.
