Pinkie giggled out of sheer happiness, despite her efforts to remain quiet. Twilight had fallen asleep in her embrace. She looked sooo cute this way. She was really warm, and she had a little snore that made Pinkie laugh. The party mare was sure she'd never been happier in her whole entire life--even when she got her cutie mark.
She couldn't help thinking that she was forgetting something, though.
Pinkie dismissed the thought and nuzzled Twilight's neck instead. She let out a giggle as a particularly naughty thought went through her mind, and she let her hoof slide down her marefriend's back, resting it on her flank. The pink pony giggled a little bit louder as she realized how much of a pervert she was being.
However, after making sure everything was perfect earlier, she couldn't help herself from a little reward. Guilt got to her quickly, and she moved her hoof back up to Twilight's mane.
I hope I never have to let Twilight go... Pinkie thought, her smile dipping down ever so slightly. I want to be with her like this forever. She pulled Twilight in closer, almost protectively.
"I love you, Twilight..."
Twilight was floating in a completely dark abyss. She felt at peace for some strange reason, and she liked it. Not a single thought ran through her mind as she remained completely still, her eyes opening and closing every once in a while.
However, the sense of tranquility didn't last long. For some reason, Twilight's heart started beating faster. She opened her eyes blearily, confused. She didn't see anything, and that made it all the weirder.
She let her eyelids lower once again, ignoring the pounding in her chest. But then, she felt something touch her. Twilight looked towards the contact, but nothing was there. She felt a gentle tapping on her shoulder, and beyond afraid, she whirled around.
"Wh-Who's there?!" She exclaimed. Her eyes widened when she saw who it was. Or, rather, what she was doing. Pinkie Pie was standing right in front of Twilight with a sad little smile, but what surprised the unicorn the most, was the fact that the earth pony had a hoof resting on her chest. She'd never touched her in a dream before.
The mare's calming touch caused Twilight to relax, her heartbeat slowing dramatically. Pinkie leaned in and, strangely, kissed her. It didn't feel right, but the unicorn still returned it. The pink mare's hoof never moved from Twilight's chest, even when she deepened the kiss. But then...
It happened. Suddenly, Twilight's heart started going a little too slowly. The unicorn's eyes snapped open as she felt her limbs numbing. She tried to pull away, but found she couldn't move at all.
Pinkie did end the kiss, staring into Twilight's eyes. Her hoof remained on the lavender mare's chest, though. The unicorn felt afraid as she locked her gaze with Pinkie's cerulean eyes, and even more so as she felt her heart's beats take even longer to come about.
The pink pony frowned, and her hoof pressed even harder into Twilight's chest. The unicorn felt everything within her freeze as her heart beat one last time. Her eyes slowly started to close, but she could still distinguish Pinkie's saddened expression.
"You're too late," she said quietly, "You can't change this."
Twilight's eyes snapped open and she jolted up. Her heartbeat felt like it had actually stopped.
"Twilight!" Pinkie exclaimed, immediately at her marefriend's side, "What's wrong?!"
The unicorn was breathing hard, and she barely looked at Pinkie. That dream hadn't been like the others--this one had terrified her. It felt like she'd actually died. She raised a hoof to her chest, closing her eyes in relief when she felt her heart's pulse.
