Some while after Scamps had fallen asleep again, Airy also got very very tired again without actually noticing it. He did not move away from his very special somepony's side, he wanted to be there for Scamps whenever she needed him...

But his tired eyes eventually won the fight, and somewhen his head ended up next to Scamps' one on his bed.

 

The next day Airy woke up from a voice whispering words to him. But... that had to be a dream, he had a room just for himself, and who would ever try to wake him up on this cruise?

Airy still felt quite tired and stretched out his fore hooves for his pillow to hug it. There was something he was able to pull closer, but... it wasn't his pillow. That object was fury abd... warm.

Airy opened his eyes and saw that his hooves were wrapped around a pony - Windy Scamper. Within a second he embarassedly let go again. "Oh... hi Scamps... I... I'm sorry, I... I must have..."

((We should probably start moving into the next day within a few posts))

 

Finishing his drink, Windy tossed the cup into a nearby trashcan. "Swish! Two points for Windy! And the crowd goes wild! Woo Hoo! You're really conceited, you know that Windy? Aw, how can you say that brain? I'm not arrogant, I just have a lot to be proud of! And here we go again... Look, before you go through the 'Why I'm awesome' speech again, how about we start moving on? It looks like Bolt is finished with her drink, so you guys shouldn't sit here idle, she'll get bored! Right you are brain!"

 

Standing up, Windy said, "So Bolt, what do you want to do now? I'm not super hungry, and not feeling like going to the dining hall for food. Unless you are hungry too, I suggest we start heading back to our cabin." Windy gave pause as he realized that he had referred to Bolt's cabin as 'ours', implying both of them would be in it. Deciding to continue before Bolt took note, Windy resumed talking, "I mean, we could always get some room service for some snackage later on if we get hungry, but I'm not up for a full meal right now. What do you think, should we head back now?"

((Alright. Also: Internet is up for now. Hopefully for more then 3 minutes. :3))

 

"Uh. Sure. We can go back now, if you want. I mean, I'm not hungry either. But I'm rarely hungry." The mare said with an awkward smile. Sometimes, awkward was attractive. But this awkward smile was far from that. 

 

Heading back to the cabin, Firebolt stopped at the door. "Uhm. Shouldn't you be returning to your cabin yourself? I didn't realize how late it was... I think I'll be going to be soon..."

Scamps smiled a bit at his nervousness. It's kinda cute when he does that. But that's just me.

 

"It's fine, Airy. Really, I don't see what all the big fuss is about.Besides, I'd rther have you beside me." She slowly sat up abd stretche dher wings out, trying to get out some cramps she woke up with.

 

((Not going to progress this much unil other people start the next day. And I'm going to bed now.))

((Hope you like reading inner monologue!))

 

Pausing at the door to Bolt's cabin, Windy stood still, as the rusty gears and circuits in his brain struggled to fire cohesively, leaving him staring for a few moments with an empty gaping look in his eyes. However, believe it or not, Windy was doing some serious thinking under that clueless look!

 

The ever-unreliable, ever-ignored rusty alarm bells in Windy's brain were going off again. However, this time, he decided that his brain might be onto something. There was something wrong, and his brain might actually be right about it!

 

"Equestria to Windy. Repeat, Equestria to Windy Runner! Yeah brain, whatsup? You're chances with Bolt are what's up! Up in the air that is! ......... You don't know what I meant by that, do you? Um... yes...?? Look here Windy, you may have missed it, but I can tell that Bolt is growing cold on you again! I mean, she's acting withdrawn, isolated, distant, and various other synonyms! Point is, you've gotta give her something! Something good to go on, not empty charm and fluff! What do you mean brain? Look smart guy, think about it like you're Bolt. All you've shown her recently is a bit of affection, no substance, and certainly no kindness! Even worse, you've been acting like a royal jerk all day long! Mares do NOT like jerks, despite what all those garbage tabloid things claim! You're not normally a jerk around your other stallion friends, so what's the deal now? I don't know... Bolt has a... a strong personality, and I need to measure up! Being a pain in the flank to everypony isn't how you measure up Windy! If you don't sort yourself out soon, you're gonna be alone for the rest of this cruise, and you'll have three ponies giving you dirty looks while you drown your sorrows in whatever that delicious drink that Bolt gave you earlier was! Do you want that? Well, no... I SAID DO YOU WANT THAT?!!! No, no I don't. I don't want to lose her. Good, then you need to show her that you care. Your insensitivity has driven more than one mare away before. Do you want to have that happen again? NO! Good, so the first thing you need to do is stop gaping like an idiot, bid your fair lady goodnight, and set your mind to thinking of how to rekindle the flame of her care! Thanks brain, you're the best!"

 

Shaking his head for a moment, and rubbing his temples as a burst of pain rocked them from all the stress he had just put himself under, Windy sighed lightly before turning to face Bolt again. "Uh, sorry Bolt. Lost in thought for a moment. But yeah, you're right, I should probably be getting back now. Good night, and sweet dreams Bolt." Windy said softly, lightly brushing his lips against Bolt's for just a moment. Opening the door for her, he asked, with a note of hope in his voice, and a small grin on his face, "So, I guess I'll see you tomorrow then?"

@,

 

At Windy's silence, Firebolt remained blank herself. The voice of her mind, for once, began again. "Crap. I said something wrong. What? Did he want to stay with me here? Not sure about that much. Y'know, for obvious reasons. Wait. Wait. Wait. He's seeming to click back in to the real. That's good, right?" Focusing back on what was happening herself, Firebolt smiled a bit nervously. "Of course!" She said, happily, before turning to go into the cabin.

Windy stood at the door until Bolt shut it before turning to leave. Not feeling tired, and still wracked with internal worry, he decided to take a flight. Trotting back up to the main deck, he spread his wings and took to the sky above the ship. Even the wind whistling in his ears and the cool breeze of the evening on his face did nothing to loosen the painful knot of nervousness in Windy's gut.

 

"Well, I suppose I should be happy. I kissed her, and she didn't push me away or hit me! That's good, right brain? Might be, might not be... It all depends Windy... Depends on WHAT?! How should I know? I'm a brain, not a supercomputer! That's what I'd have to be to understand mares! Be thankful for what I can do! Yeah, I guess you're right. But I just don't know what to do! I'm sure I'm losing her! What did I tell you earlier at her door? Uh, I dunno...? You doofus! I told you to do something or say something to PROVE that you're not just a self-centered jerk, because I know you aren't Windy! You're, inexplicably I might add, acting much more jerky than usual to try and be an alpha male for Bolt, or something stupid like that, aren't you! Well... She IS more domineering of a mare than I'm used to, I didn't know how to take it, and the last thing I want to be is a pushover! Windy, there is always a balance in life. Remember that necklace Fon gave you for your birthday last year? The 'Inner Zen' one? I'm sure he was half-baked when he gave that to me, but what's your point? Remember the symbol on it? The cool swirly thing? Yeah, I remember! Well, that thing says that life is all about balance, and keeping things stable. In fact, I think you accidentally packed it the morning you left in your rushed packing job. You should wear it from now on just to be a constant reminder to keep the balance. You know what brain, I think I'll do that! You're the best! Uh, Windy? Yeah? Why are your eyes closed while you're flying? What are you talking about? I'm plenty high above the ship! I won't hit any-" 

 

*WHAM*

 

Windy hit one of the ship's funnels with a resounding crash, before sliding down onto the boat deck. Moaning painfully, he tenderly felt the beginnings of a nasty bruise across his face and jawline. "Great... Just what I need, to look like I got hit by a bale of hay tomorrow. I'm sure Bolt is gonna LOVE that..." He muttered in annoyance, before pulling himself to his feet, looking around to make sure nopony had seen his embarrassing collision, before limping towards his room. On the way, however, something caught his eye. In the window of one of the small stores on board the ship were a set of earrings. They (To Windy's uncouth mind at least) perfectly matched the necklace Bolt had been working on, and weren't extremely expensive! Windy's heart soared as he rushed into the shop and impulsively bought the earrings. Heading back to his cabin feeling very smart, Windy mentally patted himself on the back for his good eye. Opening the door to his cabin, he carefully set the package on his nightstand before throwing himself tiredly onto his bed. As sleep began to overtake him and weight down his eyes, he looked over at his saddlebags, and reached inside one of the pockets. Sure enough, he quickly found the Yin and Yang necklace he had thought of earlier. Slipping it around his neck, Windy rolled over and quickly fell asleep, full of optimistic thoughts for the next day.

 

"I'm sure tomorrow will be better... I'll show Bolt how much I care! That I really, truly lo- er, I mean like her! She'll love the earrings, and she'll love the real me even more! Goodbye Jerky McMule, hello regular nice ol' Windy!"

 

((All set for the the next day, so whenever Bolt is ready I'll move onto the next day))

"Welllll... today was eventful. More eventful then yesterday, or about the same? Tomorrow will surely be a bit duller. And by surely, I mean with luck. I'd hate for things to be so exciting again tomorrow. It would be nice to just have a quiet day with Windy, right? Oh dear. And now I'm caught up in him. I swear that's the last thing I want..." 

 

Firebolt's mind whirled, thinking of different scenarios for the next day for at least a half hour. Then she remembered her reminder that it was late. "I should get to bed..." The mare groaned, laying on the bed, though she looked a bit excited. It took awhile for her to calm down enough to fall asleep. But, when she did, the slumber was a good one, with no dreams at all.

 

((Good night, actually.))

Ocean smiled. "Yea I suppose that's true..." She said, sipping her tea. She sighed and looked away from the horizon to look at Nightfall...who in her mind was much much nicer than the horizon. *Oh Celestia he's so cute...wait, I'm staring, I shouldn't stare.* She thought, looking down at her tea.

He sipped his cola, then looked around. He glanced at Ocean before finishing his own drink.

"It's strange... There are many things like that in this world. It'd be interesting to one day see a few of them, or at least a few, from both perspectives... You know, to know the experience."

Like Neighagara falls. Or going to see the crystal kingdom. But not all...I would love to get a bigger potion's shop...Or get some friends." She muttered the last part and sighed. "Anyway, enough about my life...if you could go anywhere in Equestria...where would it be?" She asked.

Airy needed a minute to calm down. He was kinda embarassed, even though Scamps told him she didn't mind it. She stretched her wings after she had gotten up while Airy only stretched out his fore hooves and his neck. He hadn't actually slept in a comfortable position, but still his bones didn't hurt that badly.

When he looked out of the scuttle he saw that it still was dark outside. Obviously they hadn't been sleeping that long, and Airy had forgotten to switch off the light last evening. Well, that didn't really matter.

"Well, it's nice to see you're feeling well again. It's still quite early, do you already wanna get some breakfast or rather go a little later? Honestly, I'm not really hungry at the moment, but I leave this decision all to you."

Nightraxx had been shedding tears now as well, tears of joy, tears of relief and tears of salvation from the all the pain, which wrenched his heart over the the last years...

 

He gently stroke throught her soft and beautiful blonde mane...enjoying her warmth and closeness...she laid on his lap and had curled herself up into the ball, which Nightraxx had seen so many times before, but now...it was a ball of comfort and warmth, instead of fear and anxiety...

 

That's when he was finally able to say the words...the words which filled his heart out like a soft cloud...

 

He took a very deep breath and gently said "Sorrow...I...love you...i love you more than anything..."

Right when Sorrow started to relax in his lap, Nightraxx admitted that he loved her... He loved her... That thought rang out through her head for a while...

 

The only way she could show her affection for him was by nuzzling his stomach, sighing softly and contently.

Nightraxx felt really relieved and blissful, afte he had finally made his confession to her. He hoped, that he didn't confuse or upset her in anyway with it..., Sorrow seemed to take in these words for a while...

 

But this worry was unjustified, because Sorrow then responded to his confession by gently pressing her muzzle onto his stomach and nuzzling it. She let out a gentle sigh. Nightraxx felt all the emotion behind the nuzzle and the sigh. "T...thanks..." he said softly.

 

Nightraxx was now sunken in thoughts about Sorrow and that he had to tell her about why he had been reacting this way and what happened to him in the past as well, as it would be only fair for Sorrow to know everything, he didn't want to keep it a secret from her. But not now...not in this moment of peace, kindness and bliss...

"I don't know... Staying in Canterlot may be what I do for the rest of my life, but- but even so, there are some places around it that are wonderful... There are a few waterfalls that I know of that are generally unknown... But to be honest, I don't know where I would go..."

Ocean shrugged. "Well, if you're ever bored and in need of something to do, you're welcome to stop by my place." She said, smiling. "It's off farther into the mountains, maybe a half hour walk from Canterlot. Then there's my shop...which is near the edge of the city." She sipped her tea.

"Right, right... Forgive me if you've already told me, but what do you do at your shop again?"

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure she told you... meaning you're pretty stupid for not remembering what she does for a living."

He blushed, and looked back out to the small patch of ocean.

Ocean chuckled. "Its near the edge of Canterlot. Where no pony really goes. Basically. Go to the empty part of Canterlot...where there isn't a soul in sight." She chuckled. "Not the best place to have a shop I know." She chuckled again before sipping some more of her tea. A few ponies started making their way from the pool...up to the bar...after Swimming. Ocean noticed this and, trying her best to make it casual, moved around to sit on the other side of Nightfall so she could be a little farther away from the two ponies.

Sorrow seemed very content with Nightraxx, still enjoying the warmth of his stomach and lap... This was all that she wanted in her dream, just to be right next to Nightraxx and to enjoy the warmth of a friend... And a best friend at that...

 

"Nightraxx... Thank... You... Best... Friend..." were the words that emitted softly from her mouth...

"Ok... But... What do you do, Ocean?"

He noticed that she had moved to his other side, and glanced to his other side. He noticed the wet ponies, and blinked.

"She had a hooficure, but she doesn't want to get wet period... Otherwise, she wouldn't have moved... I'll have to ask her later."

My favorite would be a color changing potion. I had a bit of a mix up a while back and somepony came in looking for a pain killer...they broke their leg.

Nightraxx stroke through her mane and held her close to himself, enjoying her closeness and affection...And then she said something, which moved and touched him very much..."Sorrow..." he said softly. "...I'll always be with you and stay by your side...i am happy you called me that..."

 

"I am happy...with you by my side...you make my life complete...and brought back the light into my life..." his expression now full of bliss and gentleness. He started humming a song, it was their song...but he hummed it slowly and very gently...

"So from my coat color to a lime green, hmm? That had to be interesting."

He chuckled.

"Can you control which color the coat of a pony will turn; I mean, can you make a potion that will make the coat of a white pony into, say, a black coat, or a red coat?"

"Don't get deep, Nightfall..."

If you were to pour it into a bucket and dip something in...like a flower, wherever the potion touched the flower would change color. With a pony, it eventually wares off. But with random objects it is permanent...unless you use another potion to reverse the effects. Anyway, I can make one any color you can think of." She said, smiling.

"Sounds like a good prank potion... That is, if there are no harmful side affects. But with a potion like that, I doubt that there would be any harmful side affects."

I wonder what would happen if I were to mix the potion with that other one...poison joke..." She trialed off and quickly reached into her bag, pulling out a notepad a few moments later. She flipped through the pages until she found a blank one and began to scribble something down...in some strange language.
