The Midnight Dance 3

Daughter Of The Sun

Button stirred out of his sleep and saw the lovely sight next to him, every day since their marriage, it made him happy seeing her there sleeping next to him, before, this was a moment he always dreaded, had it been another princess he was forced to marry, especially since he came that close to marrying Diamond Tiara, he shuddered at the memory and instead replaced it with the happy memories he had of courting Sweetie Belle, proposing to her, and reuniting with her when he thought she was gone forever, up till now, he was officially married to her, he finally had his princess, his wife, soon, she would be his queen and they would rule the kingdom with the lessons they were taught during the princesses tests, he leaned his muzzle forward and kissed her in the cheek, that got a giggle out of her and she slowly woke to face him 

Button Mash smiled: Hi 

Sweetie Belle smiled: Hi  

He touched her cheek 

Button Mash: I still can't believe it's really you, what have I done in my life to deserve such happiness 

Sweetie Belle: Oh, Button, you always deserved it, you have a good heart that will help you rule a kingdom, I'm the one who's lucky to be your wife, because I was just a girl with no parents and had to serve the royal family, but that all changed the day I got adopted and later met you, you took me a chance on me and loved me, just as I loved you, it should be me questioning how I deserved all this 

He shook his head, brought her closer to him, and stroked her hair 

Button Mash: I say we're both lucky enough to have each other 

Sweetie Belle: You're right 

Then with a mischievous grin, she used her hooves to start tickling him 

Button Mash: Hey 

He started laughing 

Button Mash: Cut that out 

He kept laughing, then, she quickly jumped off the bed and made for the door 

Button Mash: Oh, no you don't 

He quickly went after her, she giggled as he chased her and they dodged the servants that were doing their morning routine, they passed the other bedroom doors, and once they went past, Scootaloo opened the door, looking cranky 

Scootaloo angerly: Hey, some of us are trying to sleep here 

She huffed, went back to her bed, and groaned 

Rumble: Just calm down 

Rumble soothed her and started rubbing her back 

Scootaloo: Ugh 

She shifted her heavy weight 

Scootaloo: I feel like a hippo 

Rumble: No way, you're much more beautiful than a hippo 

He kissed her forehead 

Scootaloo: Will this never end, I've been lying around the castle for over six months now, and when my due date does come, I'll still be pregnant 

She gave out an frustrated sob 

Rumble: Honey, you're overreacting again 

Scootaloo: Well, I have a right to be 

Fury filled her eyes 

Scootaloo angerly: You did this to me 

She sobbed again, Rumble cringed, as much as he blamed himself for putting her through this emotional turmoil, he knew he had to wait it out and hope that she'd start acting happy again, he also hoped that when their baby did get born, Scootaloo would be herself again before this all started, thankfully, he heard her say in a cheerful tone
