I awoke the next morning to the sun's bright rays beaming through her window. I groggily stumbled over to her window and threw the curtains covering them open. My eyes shifted to the view of the lush forests that surrounded her home. A dense forest, a crystalline lake in the front of it, and the pearlescent orange sun blazing behind it all. I stared at the view few more minutes before making her way downstairs. "Goodmorning guys." Solaria and Aurora smiled as she walked downstairs. "Good morning Luna." They said in response. As I continued walking downstairs I took notice of my "Friends" facial expressions. Solaria had a constant blush whenever she looked over toward my direction, and as for Aurora, her crystalline purple eyes tried to avoid my gaze as I passed her in the kitchen. "Have I done something wrong?" I thought as I sat down to eat breakfast. "So, Solaria about what happened last night... Did you mean that?" I asked as I half heartedly looked down at my plate. Solaria nodded as she looked at me, "Of course I did, though you may wanna key Aurora in, she looks rather upset." I glanced over towards Aurora, she looked at me as if to say "What are you not telling me?" I beckoned her to come sit with us and she did so, although it was reluctant. We all ate in a awkward silence before Aurora finally decided to speak, "So what am I supposed to be knowing that you so desperately want to keep from me?" I glanced over towards Solaria and she nodded. I breathed in and stood up, "Aurora get dressed then we'll go for a walk, and I'll tell you Everything." Aurora came back downstairs after a few minutes and we left promptly after. It was a rather warm day outside, the birds fluttered as they moved between trees, the breeze moved calmly as we walked along the stone path that lined the neighborhood we lived in. "So, what's up?" Aurora after a moment of awkward silence. "My throat felt dry, as if I swallowed sand from the desert. "Aurora, you know my mother right?" I asked her after mustering the courage to speak. "Yes, she's the draconic moon goddess, she's where you get your tough skin and sharp predatory eyes from right?" I nodded, "She told me a prophecy when I was a kid, a riddle technically, it's the explaination for my love life failures." I stared at the sky, hoping to get courage to talk to Aurora about this. I breathed in heavily and spoke, "In simplicity, I'm supposed to fall in love with you and Solaria, or else my powers will kill everyone on the planet because my emotions with rise too much." I breathed out and then stopped and faced her, "My mother told Solaria, and she confessed to me and kissed me last night." I paused then spoke some more, "So what I ask you is, do you want to date both me and Aurora?"
