Still levitating Free n' Clear along with the basket of cookies the filly had brought with her; Celestia stepped back into the bungalow, and then quietly closed the front door in my Equestria dreamscape. Through all of this the filly remained motionless and silent. Upon securing the door the princess looked over at the unexpected guest.
"I'll be with you in just a moment dear. Please be patient. Understand?"
The filly stared wide eyed at the alicorn. After a second she nodded her head a tiny bit.
Happy with this response Celestia headed toward the kitchen with the levitating filly and basket of cookies in tow. Depositing the cookies on the counter the Princess of the Sun filled a kettle with water and placed on the range top. Fortunately the bungalow had been recently set up for gas so the process of getting water on it's way to boiling for coffee was a quick affair. With further use of her levitation talent the alicorn soon had the French Press coffee maker prepared for accepting hot water.
Through all of this Free n' Clear continued to float silently. With the immediate task completed Celestia lifted the cloth covering the basket's contents. She peered inside then looked back at the filly.
"Did you make these yourself, dear?"
The pastel pink filly nodded her head.
"May I have one please?" Asked the princess.
Once again the filly nodded her head.
"Thank you dear." Celestia then levitated a cookie from the basket and took a bite and then chewed for a couple of seconds. Arching an eyebrow she looked at the filly.
"You appear to be a filly of many talents. Well. Let's confirm a suspicion I have." Celestia then proceeded walk into the living room with the still levitating filly and her recently acquired cookie bobbing along like a couple of balloons. In the time that had pass Heartbreaker had begun the process of regaining lucidity. Although not completely since the mare didn't immediately notice the levitating filly. Stopping at the edge of the sprawling collection of pillows and cushions Celestia addressed the hungover Scale Bearer and Mare-in-Waiting.
"Heartbreaker dear can you answer a question for me?"
The milk chocolate brown mare groaned. "Wut? Eh? Wutz that Sunny?"
Celestia levitated Free n' Clear up close to Heartbreaker. With a very motherly tone of voice she addressed the mare. "Is this the filly. You've been talking about so much, and have been referring to as your student?" The alicorn took another bite of the cookie she'd brought with her. "You failed to mention that she's a talented baker."
Heartbreaker's squinted at the floating unicorn and scowled at her. "Yeah, yeah that's her, but where? How? I mean how did ya run to her?"
Celestia took another bite of her cookie. "Well Heartbreaker. Along with baking she appears to be very adept with a variety of tools. I found her after she'd succeeded in picking the lock on the front door here." Celestia finished her cookie before speaking further. "Students often surprise their teachers, but still this seems like an oversight on your part dear."
Heartbreaker glared at the filly for a few seconds. After a very pregnant pause Free n' Clear spoke with the best smile she could muster. "Um, good morning. I brought you cookies."
Heartbreaker stared at her for a second then rolled onto her back and draped a her left front leg across her eyes. After a moment she muttered.
"Fucking great."

To be continued.
