I..I am a p..princess?

Flurry: I... I am a p-princess?
Cadance: Yes, my little heart. And soon you will have your own kingdom.
Shining Armor: Well, technically you will take your mother's place when you'll get old enough to-
C: Shining!
S: What?
C: But for now, you will be the Empire's new sweetheart! So many ponies are coming from all Equestria just for-
F: Mommy?
C: Yes, my love?
F: W-why I should be a princess?
C: W-what do you mean?
F: Can I be a normal pony like my friends?
C: Well, of course you can, but...
S: ... well, you are born an alicorn. So... they may see you.... hmm... differently from other ponies, but...
C: I'm sure they will accept you like any-
F: Mommy?
C: Yes?
F: Was it the same when you went to school? I-I mean... did they... accept you as other ponies?
C: Uh... I can't say... I didn't went to school at your age. I lived in a more rustic town. Furthermore, I wasn't born a alicorn like you. I was born a pegasus.
F: *gasp*
S: It's true. She earned her wings and became a princess. A princess that I fell in love with the first time put my eyes upon-
F: Mommy wasn't born a alicorn like me?
C: Indeed.
F: So, am I a better princess than mommy?
S: Huh? What do you mean by that?
C: Flurry! Being born this way doesn't mean you may be worth of governing over a nation! You have to win their trust, show what you are trustworthy, have the qualifications to be a real princess!
F: Oh. You mean like aunty Twily?
C: Twily?
S: Uh....
C: Shining! I told you to not let get her use that name!
S: Hey! I did nothing wrong!
C: Well, I'll leave you explaining that to... TWILIGHT! It's aunt Twilight! The next time she'll come to visit.
S: Yeah, yeah. But, I'm sure she'll think it's fine.
C: Hmph!
F: So... I'm born a alicorn.... a alicorn is a princess... I'm a princess but... I have to prove that I can be a real princess?
C: Exactly.
F: B-but what I don't want to be a princess? What if I want to be a... a... student like aunty Twily?
C: *facehoof*
S: Twily.... er, I mean your aunt Twilight was a student of your great aunt Celestia. She was a unicorn like me before she became a princess. I'm sure her destiny would have been different if she was born a alicorn. Or even more if she wasn't princess right now. Who knows? Maybe she would have turned.... a... a teacher?
F: Can I be a teacher too?
Both parents looked at each others?
S: W-w-well... if that's what you-
C: What daddy mean is that you can be what you can, do what you want and live the life you decide. But, you will remain an alicorn and eventually become a princess like me.
F: *sigh*
C: What's wrong?
F: I don't want to stay inside all day and writing on papers and tell to the servants and guards what to do. It's boring.
S: Huh? And the turn of the guards with daddy?
F: Hmm. Slightly better.
S: What?!
C: Uh... What do you think that we go visit your great aunts next week?
F: Why not now? I want to go now!
C: Uh.... We have to plan everything before leaving, my love. We can't leave abruptly and let the ponies here without a chief executive!
F: But I thought you were the princess...
C: Remember what I told you about the qualities of being a princess? Taking care of our subjects is part of it.
S: I know it bothers you, but you'll have to wait.
F: *sigh* Okay.
She removed the royal attires.
F: Can I go play with my friend or I need to plan for it?
S: *scuff*
C: Uh.... uh.. n-n-no you can go now. But be safe and come back for dinner.
F: Okay, mommy.
She galloped out of the room.
C: *sigh*
S: What's wrong? Worried about her future of being a princess?
C: Yes. And no. I know she'll be a very fine princess.
S: Maybe even better than her mother.
C: Shining! *sigh* Maybe even better than me since she got a loving mother who will take good care of her.
S: The best one. The princess of love herself.
C: And... her dorky father.
S: Hey! Maybe, but I'm a very loving father too.
C: True. But what she just said... about not becoming a princess...
S: She's young. She'll understand when she'll be of age.
C: You're maybe right. Just... promise me one thing, then.
S: Depends.
C: Depends of what?
S: What's the promise.
C: Can you promise me or not?
S: I'm listening.
C: Promise me... that she won't end up.... like Twilight?
S: ...... Uh... you mean as a recluse, a bookworm, friendless until something grand happen to change her entire existence?
C: Just.... the part of reclusion, bookworm and becoming a teacher.
S: What's wrong with that?
C: Promise me?
S: *sigh* Alright. But promise me something in return... I mean other than never telling her I made this promise...
C: Yes, yes. What is it?
S: Please... don't tell her about the... Twily name?
C: Shining.
S: Yes?
C: She would eventually find it out by herself.
She walked toward the door.
S: *sigh* Yeah. I'm dead.
C: Well mister dead pony, call Starbust to keep a eye on Flurry. And Flash, just in case.
S: Yes, m'mam!

Beautiful work.
