Snowy Night

>You stroked Twilight's horn, the mare cuddling into your chest.
>It was a clear night, the moon shining through the window and onto the both of you.
>It should have been snowing, but the weather system moved just slightly north of Ponyville.
>That was fine.
>Still plenty cold enough to make the mare snuggle closer to you.
>Her teeth were actually chattering from being outside, Twilight having to run out to check on some commotion.
>It was just Pinkie causing problems. Again.
>Another stroke to her horn caused the mare to groan, and a soft smile lit your face.
>"S-stop...too fast..." The mare grunted with a small smile. "Wait for Spike to go to bed..."
>Her teeth met your shoulder, gnawing on you playfully. You returned the gesture, nibbling just hard enough for her to feel it, not hard enough to leave marks.
>She stopped, looking over your shoulder and out the window.
>"Ooooh..."
>You looked as well, and saw what she was 'oooh'-ing over.
>It was snowing.
>Flitter had told you that the system was being moved north, so why it was here now was beyond you.
>It was an excellent surprise though.
>Twilight kissed you on the cheek, before amorously nuzzling your neck.
>"I'm going to make some hot cocoa, want some?"
"Extra marshmallow, please!" You replied, like an excited child.
>"Of course."
>She went downstairs, and you opened the balcony to set chairs up.
>The tree naturally kept the balcony free of snow or any other downfall, short of those heavy storms where it came down sideways.
>You sat outside, listening to the silence as the snow drowned out the natural sounds of the nightlife.
>Judging by how light the snow was, it wouldn't leave more than a few inches at best.
>Twilight joined you a few minutes later, handing you your mug.
"You had something to do with this, didn't you?" You asked, amused.
>"I, uh, well...maybe?" The mare said, blushing. "I just asked that a few clouds be broken off from the main storm, Canterlot won't miss an inch or two of the stuff."
>Twilight looked back out to the Ponyville streets.
>"I know how much you like the snow, so I figured I'd give you a gift for being such a great boyfriend."
>She gave you a nervous, wide smile, and you just laughed.
"Thank you Twi, it's a great birthday gift."
>You watched the mare's eyes go wide and her ears flatten.
>The most obvious expression of 'Oh shit' you had ever seen.
>"I...I thought it was tomorrow...?"
>You laughed, then gestured to the clock.
>The clock read 12:49 AM.
"Twi, sweetie, it *is* tomorrow."
>You watched as a wave of relief spread through the mare, even making her wings ruffle a bit.
>"Oh, good...I didn't miss it." The mare replied with a sigh.
"You never do."
>"I've just been so busy lately, I...thought I had."
>You reached over and picked the mare up, letting her settle into your lap.
>You both took a sip of your hot drinks after she had settled in, relaxing with one another as the snow blanketed everything in its chilly, white embrace.
