Today's Horoscope (Virgo): Today is a good day to be with the person you love the most.
Daytime
It's Christmas Eve.
Canterbook is back online. Twilight, Pinkie, and I spend most of the morning checking in on our friends. Everyone seems to be enjoying being with their loved ones...
Velvet and Cadance are busy in the kitchen. The rest of us are in the lounge. Night Light and Shining Armor are playing chess, and Pinkie and Maud are talking quietly in a corner.
For most of day, Twilight stays by my side, snuggled up against me. A little while before dinner, Cadance takes a break from working in the kitchen. Twilight stands up suddenly. "Cadance? Can...can I talk to you, alone? For a little bit?"
Cadance nods. "Let's go over to the apartment," she says.
"Wonder what that was all about?" Shining Armor muses once they're gone.
"Girl talk," Night Light answers. He eyes me speculatively.
Twilight and Cadance don't return until dinnertime. Twilight takes Pinkie aside and speaks to her for a minute, then heads to the dining room. Pinkie has a silly little smile on her face...
What's going on?
Evening
After dinner, Twilight spends several minutes going up and down the stairs.
Velvet and Cadance go to bed early so they can get up early to cook. The rest of us watch a couple of Christmas specials until past nine. Pinkie wants to stay up to wait for Santa, but Maud tells her she should go to bed early so we can all get up early to open presents.
"Ooh, presents!" Pinkie zooms to the stairs. "Goodnight everybody! Come on, Maud!"
Maud smiles slightly. "Goodnight, everyone." She heads upstairs with Pinkie.
At around ten, Shining Armor and Night Light say goodnight and head over to the apartment.
Twilight fidgets. "Flash? I...I have something important to talk about...when we get upstairs." She stands and heads up to the third floor. I turn off everything in the lounge and follow her.
Twilight is sitting on my bed, fidgeting. I sit down next to her and put an arm around her. "What's up?"
"I...I have something I wanted to give you," she says. "It's...a little silly, but..." She hands me a small box. I open it; inside is an old, yellowed library card.
"That's my first library card," Twilight says. "It was issued when I was five years old. I've kept it all this time...it's always been one of my greatest treasures." She smiles at me. "I want you to have it."
"Twilight...why?"
Twilight looks out the window. "Before...before you came here, I hardly had any friends. I mean, I wasn't really close to anybody but my family. Pinkie Pie went out of her way to be my friend, and I'll always be grateful to her for that, but..." She looks at me, then looks down at her lap. "Until you...until you came...until you told me you wanted to be my boyfriend..." She blushes. "All I cared about was reading and studying...but having you in my life changed all that. You've...you've really changed me. I'm more comfortable around people now...I enjoy having friends and spending time with them." She leans into me. "And...for the first time in my life, I feel like I really have something to look forward to." She blushes. "When...when you go back to Seaddle...you're coming back to me, right?"
"Of course I am," I say. "As soon as I graduate, I'm leaving Seaddle forever. I want to be here with you..."
Twilight smiles and kisses me. "Thank you..." She ducks her head. "You know, I...when you first came here, I wasn't sure I even wanted to let you into my life..." She takes a deep breath. "Watching the way Cadance would...would just go off and..." She looks down. "Seeing how Shining Armor just...resigned himself to that...I didn't want to risk...you know...getting hurt like that. And..." She looks at me. "There have been times when I've doubted you. When...when I've thought that you might..."
I cut her off with a kiss. "The last thing I want to do is hurt you."
"I know that now," Twilight says with a smile. "And...you even helped fix Cadance and Shining Armor's problems...Mom and Dad really like you too. You're...the best thing that's ever happened to me, you know? The best thing that's ever happened to my whole family." She looks into my eyes. "I love you, Flash. I really love you..."

Twilight smiles shyly at me, hand on my chest. "Flash..." She takes a deep breath. "Make love to me?"
What...?
I swallow. "You...you mean it?"
She blushes. "Yes," she says. "I...I want to make love to you."
"Twilight..."
She walks over to my desk; there are a couple of things there I hadn't noticed. "I...I talked to Cadance," she says. "I knew about the condoms in your sock drawer..." She picks up two wrapped condoms lying on the desk, then puts them back down. "And...she gave me this." She picks up a little bottle full of some kind of raspberry red gel. "She said...it's a good idea to use something like this the first time."
She walks back over to me and wraps her arms around me, burying her face in my chest. I tilt her chin up and kiss her; she returns the kiss hungrily, passionately. After almost a full minute, she takes a step back, then slowly, shyly begins undressing. She takes the time to carefully fold her clothes up on my desk chair. Her panties are the last to go...
This is the first time I've ever seen Twilight completely naked. My heart skips a beat as she turns and looks at me coyly.
I take Twilight into my arms and spend what feels like forever just exploring her body with my hands and lips. She cranes her neck back and moans softly as I fondle, caress, and kiss her all over. She's trembling...
I look her in the eyes. "Are you sure?"
She takes a deep breath. "Yes."
I undress and fling my clothes into the corner. Twilight runs her hands all over my chest and abdomen and shoulders and back, kissing me passionately. My heart is pounding...
Twilight pulls back the blankets, then grabs the condoms and the bottle from the desk and lies down on her back on the bed, spreading her legs. A fearsome blush has overtaken her entire body. She stares at my cock, eyes wide. "Wow," she says softly. "That's really just five and five-eighths inches?"
I blink. "Huh?"
Twilight giggles. "Rarity told me she measured it."
"Gah."
"I was surprised and a little mad, but then she measured my..." Twilight takes a deep breath, and an embarrassed, naughty look crosses her face. "Pussy," she says with an adorably nervous little giggle.
I stare at Twilight's sex, the sparse patch of violet pubes there.
Twilight swallows. "So, umm...you're going to...come over here, right? I'm getting a little cold here..."
I approach the bed. Twilight unwraps one of the condoms and hands it to me. I've never put one on before, so it takes a minute of fiddling to get it on. She hands me the bottle. "Umm...you'll need to use your fingers and...." She blushes furiously. "Rub some of this inside me..."
I open the bottle and squirt some lube out onto my fingers. It's cold and smells like raspberries. I kneel on the end of the bed between Twilight's legs and bend low, using my un-lubed hand to tease apart her nether lips. She gasps and shudders at my touch. With her inner folds in view and my cock throbbing and every impulse in my being telling me to dive right in, it's a struggle to hold back; I press my lube-slick fingers into her sex. She lets out a loud, sharp cry. "That's cold!" she squeaks.
"Yeah, it is," I say. "Are you alright?"
Twilight nods. "Just...just hurry," she says. "Hurry so you can...so you can..."
The simple act of lubing Twilight's sex is thrilling and amazing. She trembles and quivers at my touch, letting out sharp hisses of breath that make me want to come. Once I feel like I've spread enough of the cold, fruity lube inside her, I put the bottle aside and cover her with my body, rubbing the latex-covered tip of my dick against her slit. "Are you ready?" I ask.
Twilight nods. "I'm ready," she says.
I probe her pussy lips with my dick, teasing her gently open, then slowly push myself into her. She cries out raggedly, balling up the sheets with her hands.
"Are you alright?"
"Yes..." Twilight takes a deep breath. "It...wow..." She closes her eyes. "More," she says.
I push further inside her. The lube makes it easier to enter, but not much; her pussy is incredibly tight, squeezing my dick so hard it hurts.
So this is the difference between a virgin and...
I can't make it all the way in, so I pull out and thrust again, slowly. This is my first time with Twilight, and her first time ever...I'm going to make it last as long as I can.
Twilight cries out softly, her breasts bouncing slightly with the motion of my thrusts. I keep up a slow, steady rhythm, keeping my eyes on hers, holding onto her hips as I make love to her. I want this to last all night...
My body has other plans. Pressure is building, and the only way to release it is to go harder and faster. It takes everything I have to take it slow, gradually speeding up instead of going all out and frantically fucking her.
"Aaaah...! Ahh...AHHHH!"
Twilight's crying out; her breathing and moans are getting faster, sharper, more ragged. It's exciting, it's making me want to come...
"Ahh...AHHHH! AH! AH! AAAAAHHHH!"
With one last, shuddering thrust, very nearly hilting, I come. Twilight lets out a scream, back arching.
I sag against her as her pussy releases me and I pull out. "Are you alright?" I ask.
"Yes," she says, voice cracking and hoarse. "That..." She pants, wrapping her arms around me and pulling me down on top of her. "Thank you," she says, kissing me.
"I love you, Twilight." I kiss her back, wrapping my hands around her and holding her close.
I let out a loud, explosive fart.
Twilight's eyes widen in surprise.
"Umm..." Oh wow, that was embarrassing.
Twilight's nose crinkles. "Flash," she says flatly.
"Umm...excuse me?" I offer sheepishly.
She shakes her head. "Goodnight," she says, rolling over on her side and nestling into the bed.
I chuckle, running a hand through her hair. I get up long enough to get rid of the used condom, then I lay down beside her, pulling the covers over us.
