private Life in Canterlot

@@Delernil, 

"Th-thank you... I won't be a bother..."

She quietly trotted to the bed. Slowly getting in. It felt a little awkward, but the feeling soon passed.

She lay down, trying to get comfortable, and wrapped her arms around Traveller.

She took a few, deep breathes, as sleep finally met her.

It had been a long while, and sweet rest met her at last.

She shivered a little, and mumbled in her sleep.

Traveller felt awkward at first when the mare wrapped her arms around him, but got used to it. He closed his eyes thinking about the day. [i/]I lost everything, hurt myself , nearly slept on a bench, messed up a mares plans, but also gained two great friends. Good enough. he thought to himself. He realized she had fallen asleep way before he did. [i/]She must have been really tired... he thought. He heard a small mumble and felt her shiver next to him.

@@Delernil,

The sunlight peered into the room. The day had started. Ambiance opened her eyes, slowly, unsure about what had happened the previous night. She felt warmth between her front hooves, to see Traveller, resting soundly.

"Wh-why am I..." She looked at the mounted clock in the room.

3pm.

She shook Traveller around, trying to get out of the bed. She poked at him repetedly.

"We should probably getup..."

'Wh...huh?' Traveller mumbled as Ambiance shook him awake. 'W...why are you holding me?' he said, looking around and then at Ambiance. He looked at the clock mounted on the wall. 'Oh jeez, it's already 3!' He exclaimed as he jumped out of bed. 'Oh man, in really sorry Ambiance. We need to go find Quill and set up and...' He said, fumbling to make Ambiances bed and Quills. 'Whete is Quill anyway?' He asked himself.

Missy had fallen asleep next to a window, she had gotten up in the middle of the night, she had nightmares.

She had found a pillow to sit under her head, her hoof was now twitching, still in a dream-like state.

"D......don't......" Missy mumbled. "I..." She was slightly sweating, feeling uneasy.

Architectural Dream was awake in the night, his eyes focused on the large sheet if paper before him. A protractor, a ruler, all sorts of tools were next to him. He didn't need a lot of sleep, he usually wakes up irregularly to do something. A 180 degree arc, twenty-eight feet. Numbers. And he sat back sighing. A sketches city was now imprinted on the sheet of paper. Each object was drawn to a value that was exact as possible. Then he opened his door and walked to his kitchen to make a small cup of tea for himself.

"I-i don't know. Wh-where could he be. Also... um..."

She sjot out of bed, confused, her cheecks were swolen and red.

She smiled sheepishly.

"Ummm... about last night. I-i'm sorry... I'm really sorry for that... please forgive me..."

She got up from the bed, and sighed. Looking guiltily at Traveller.

Missy appeared to be pulling some kind of cart, it was very heavy, she looked into the distance and she was walking towards Ponyville, but no matter how much she walked she couldn't make her way home.

 

Missy shifted in her sleep and groaned uneasily, slightly whimpering.

'Oh, it's ok Ambiance. Anything for a friend.' Traveller smiled. 'I really didn't mind. It helped you sleep.' He added. 'Quill probably went out when we didn't get up. I'm sure he'll come back, or maybe we'll run into him.' he said as he tidied up the room. 'Did you sleep well? I hope I didn't bother you.' Traveller asked as he looked around the room, smiling with his work.

Regal sat on his bed. His bag was hanging over the bed. Laying down on his bed, he closed his eyes. He enjoyed his walk under the moonlight, but he wished he could have enjoyed it with somepony.
"Goodnight" he said to no one and quickly drifted off. waiting for morning to come.

"Th-thank you... If it was weird, I-i'm really sorry... I-i was just so sad... I just... Listen I'm sorry..."

She stood against the door, she hadn't noticed that he had cleaned the whole room. She laughed a little.

He cares about you Ami. You don't deserve him, Ami. You're a failure, Ami. Nopony loves you, Ami.

She cried again, shaking her head, trying to get rid of her hateful thoughts.

"I-i'm sorry... just... I'm sorry. Please don't hate me..."

She opened the door, and slowly crawled out of the door.

Traveller smiled. 'Hey, you don't need to be sorry. It helped you! That's all I care about. Making people happy.' He said as he turned towards the door. When his friend began crying again he rushed after her and covered her with his wings. 'Whats wrong Ambiance? Obviously there's something *really* wrong. You were so cheerful yesterday.' He said with worry in his voice, emphasizing the word 'really'.

After drinking the tea, Architectural Dream got up and started walking up the stairs. On the way to his temporarily room, he heard noises from Missy's room. Opening it slowly and entering, he noticed that Missy was shifting around in bed. Probably from nightmares.

[The Ponyville Critic 304]

Missy eventually collapsed from fatigue, she couldn't go on, and she passed out.

 

Missy woke up in the real world with a slight scream. She was breathing quite fast and she was sweating again.

"Architectural? Sorry if I woke you, I was just having a nightmare, again, I'm sorry." Missy said.

"M-my... I-i just... y-you see... I~i-i-i..." She choked on her words. She didn't want to talk about it, but she did.

"My family kinda kicked me out of the house... And I kinda stole their permit, their train tickets, their hotel key, and a lot of their bits..."

She cried more. She hated herself. She didn't want this. But it happened.

"I just want to die. I have no friends. My family hates me, and I still don't really care about anything. I thought they might forgive me if I did thier work for them."

She was silent now. She sat there for minutes on end. 

"I don't think I'll ever be able to face them again... or anypony for that matter..."

Traveller just stayed silent. He wasn't sure what to make of it. He just hugged Ambiance closer. 'You have me Ambiance. I promise.' He said as he hugged her. 'We all mess up.' he said quietly. ''Ive messed up... I almost got my only friend killed. He hated me and left.' He whispered. 'Please don't cry. I care. Quill cares. Everypony cares.' he added as her got silent.

[Demirari 454]

"No need to apologies for having a nightmare," Architectural Dream replied as he took a seat on the bed. Then he continued, "I wake up at irregular hours so you didn't wake me up." Then he spoke after noticing the condition Missy was in, "Mind telling me what was the nightmare about?"

[The Ponyville Critic 304]

"Uh....I was carrying a cart of some kind, a heavy cart, I couldn't see what was on it." Missy began to speak. "It was dark, I was on the path to Ponyville, walking towards the town, I could see it. But no matter how much I walked, I just couldn't get there. I knew I was walking, but it just wasn't getting any closer... do you think that means anything?"

[Unicorn Coffee 204]

@@Delernil, 

"Y-you still think me a friend. Thank you... thank you..."

She felt better, but not quite. She had stopped crying, and felt.

She went in, and gave Traveller a hug.

"At least I have you. I still don't think I deserve it... but thank you."

She realized how selfish she had been, trying to panw off her problems on one of her few friends.

"Y-you almost killed a friend... that's horrible!"

'Yeah.' Traveller said, looking down to the floor. 'We were traveling together. My clumsiness got us falling off the path. We fell down to a cave, which of course with my luck, had an Ursa Minor in it. It attacked us and my wings shot out, knocking him closer to it. His magic saved us, but he stunned me and for two hours I sat next to the path. I've never seen him since.' Traveller said solemnly. 'I messed up.' he whispered.

[Demirari 454]

"There are many things that the nightmare could be trying to tell you," Architectural Dream spoke thinking, "The heavy cart could be a heavy burden. The distance could mean that the heavy burden will never be lifted. However, I'm not too sure if that was the nightmare's message."

"Maybe the heavy burden is taking care of myself through my whole life and it's never been lifted, and it never will, I've always had to do things for myself, so it's quite difficult for me to accept the help of somepony else, I'm guessing that's what it is, the nightmare's only started recently though." Missy said, trying to sit herself up against the window.

[Demirari 454]

"Only recently?" Architectural Dream raised one of his eyebrows, "Did anything happen to you recently? And I'm assuming this is in the timeline of a few days?" What was the nightmare trying to tell. He doubted that this was just a random nightmare that just happened in a streak.

[The Ponyville Critic 304]

"This is something I didn't think I would have to tell somepony else, but..." Missy took in a deep breath. "My adoptive mother is ill, I guess it's just me being scared of losing her and going back to the way things used to be... I don't want to lose anypony else... you know?"
