Honestly im not sure how this chapter turned out. I hope it is satisfactory though. Honestly there's just a lot of after parties consequences in this chapter like the title suggests but the next few chapters is just Starfall enjoying his time before the grand Galloping Gala which would most likely end up with him inside the lab...but that depends on what comes to my mind when I start writing it XD
Like always ENJOY!!!

The after-party found Starfall waking up in an unfamiliar bed with a pink maned pony laying on his chest and snoring lightly. He couldn't help but smile seeing Pinkie Pie in this position, as she looked very cute and peaceful unlike her usual quirky self.
The unicorn brushed some oh her fluffy hair away from her face and sighed in contentment. This was one of his favourite ways of waking up, seeing his beloved girls snuggled into him. It was practically as great as waking up to a blowjob... although he wouldn't put the two in the same categories of happiness...
He laid back on the pillow, lightly stroking the pinkish mane with his hoof while thinking.
And his first thought was obviously, "How the hay did they ended up here?!..."
The answer soon came to him as the hazy memories of the previous night returned to him.
'...Huh...Did I get so drunk that I mounted Pinkie in the middle of the party?...Well...She didn't seem to mind though... and everypony were too drunk to notice anyway, most of them passed out all around the barn... Where did Applejack found that Cider?!' Thought Starfall while remembering The Mare taking out a large old barrel of Cider with a rainbow staple'...oh...an aged Zap Apple Cider...That might explain it...' He realized, having previously studied the magical apples and learned of their tendency to be much better at everything in comparison to regular apples...which apparently includes getting ponies drunk...
"Nnn...Starfall...Is it morning?..." Pinkie lightly moaned and snuggled into his chest even tighter.
"I'd say it's midday... But you can sleep. I don't mind having you like this." He whispered soothingly to which the pink mare mewled cutely in response and hugged him tighter.

They finally got up an hour later and walked down the stairs of, as it turned out to be, the Apple family farmhouse.
Funnily enough, they found Big Mac sitting by the table holding his head in his hooves in what Starfall could only assume being a massive headache. The Zap Cider clearly wasn't just extremely good at getting you drunk, but it also increased the hangover... A double edged sword so to speak but...It's so delicious that it's still worth a try...
Granny smith greeted them with a knowing smile.
"Ah! Hello, Ya two Lovebirds! Yer finally up! Ah heard ya know some magic ta help Mac Starfall. I would trouble ya..." Said the aged mare in her heavy accent and Starfall smiled.
"Of course Granny." He replied.
In a way they were a family through Applejack, so he didn't have to be formal.
A quick spell to dispell the Hangover and a few glasses of water later, Big Mac looked ready for the day.
"Thanks Fall. I owe ya one." Said the red Stallion and Starfall laughed.
"It's nothing Bro. We're almost family anyway." He replied making Big Mac grin.
"And speaking of family...Do you know where's Applejack? I wanted to ask her about that Cider..." He said, but his words caused Granny to snort in amusement.
"Ah Remember seein' her behind the barn Sweetie. If ya go now , ya might catch er in an embarrassing position." She laughed before leaving the kitchen to take care of somethings.
Starfall watched the older mare leave and couldn't help but smile. He liked this family very much. He was just about to start contemplating stuff when Pinkie Pie shook his side.
"Hey, stop contemplating family and let's go catch Applejack. I am curious of what Granny Smith said." Pinkie said and Starfall nodded.
"Alright."
The duo soon departed and a few minutes later arrived behind the barn...
"Woah..." Starfall exclaimed while Pinkie Pie burst out laughing.
There on a pile of hay, lied Applejack, Rarity and Rainbow Dash snuggled into each other as if they were recovering from a wild threesome...
"Ugh...Where am I..." Rarity muttered as apparently The laughter woke her up from her slumber.
"Huh...What...?" She then said realising the hooves wrapped around her as her face flushed red.
Yeah this was going to be a funny morning...

"I'm never drinking again..."Said Twilight as she looked into the mirror. There on her forehead was inscribed Swollright Spunkel with a black marker and she didn't even remember how it appeared there...
"Here let me.." Starfall took her cheek and carefully placed his horn on her forehead before cleaning the words with a spell. He then followed it with a quick kiss to which she responded with a smile.
"Well, you can't disagree that we had fun, do you?" He asked after a few seconds and she snorted in derision.
"Well, if by fun you mean forgetting the entire night and waking up with a headache then..."
"I'm pretty sure you are the only one who forgot everything. And I also remember you being the most drunk which might have had something to do with the drinking contest which you won by swallowing the entire barrell..." He said remembering the party.
"Ugh..." Twilight facehoofed." Did u really do that?' She asked and Starfall grinned.
"Yep. And it seems like we once again find ourselves in this situation, haha! You really need to work on your Alcohol resistance Twi." He said in amusement as she bonked her head on the mirror...almost breaking it with her horn...

After the eventful party, Starfall finally had some time to himself, so he decided to take care of some things that he held off for far too long.
A quick teleportation had him arrive in the Appleloosa where he instantly went to look for Little Strongheart. It was high time they met as he owed her at least a few dates. Writing letters could only take them so far after all.
It didn't took him long before he found his target, or more precisely she found him, as the petite Buffalo almost crushed into him the moment she saw him.
"Starfall! You're here! I was missing you so much!" She cried out as a few tears started to fall from her eyes. Even she was unaware how much she missed him even though they briefly saw eachother a few days prior. But now he was there really for her and she didn't have to restrain herself...
"I'm here Lil. I told you I'll see you soon." He said warmly while embracing the girl.
"So what is it you wanted to tell me so urgently?" He asked and he could see Little Strongheart becoming a bit worried and happy at the same time...
"Not here..." She said looking around before pulling him towards her camp.
They soon walked into her tent where she closed the flaps and looked at Starfall in trepidation.
"Starfall...c-could you kiss me?" She asked suddenly and Starfall looked at her confused.
"Uh...sure...but why?" He asked moving closer to the girl.
"Do I need a reason?" She asked and Starfall snorted.
"I guess not." He said before kissing her deeply.
Their kiss continued for another while before they separated, Strongheart looking much more relaxed than she was before.
"So...About that thing I wanted to tell you..." She looked at Starfall with a bit expectation...
"I'm pregnant..." She said and Starfall promptly passed out...not...
"You're...what?" He asked confused. This shouldn't be possible right?
"I'm pregnant." She repeated with a small smile. "You're going to be a Daddy Starfall." She explained and Starfall's world turned upside down.
'He's going to be a daddy?...' The thought itself felt so surreal, but despite everything, he didn't fell scared but rather excited...While it was certainly unexpected... somehow it made him happy and excited. Although he was worried about the reaction of the others...
He must have been a while as he went through a lot of different expressions, because Lil had to wake I'm up from his musings.
"Starfall... Please...Say something..." She said a bit pleadingly and he realised that she was really worried about his reaction to the news.
"I'm sorry Lil... I was just not expecting that..." He said apologetically before smiling and cupping her cheek.
But...I'm actually very happy!" He said and Little's face lit up when she heard his words.
"Really!? You mean that?!" She asked and Starfall nodded.
"Yeah. It's certainly unexpected, but I'm not against it. Although I am even more considering snatching you away from your tribe now." He said with a wink while Lil giggled.
"I think my father wouldn't mind that, although I can't say the same about the others. I am as much their family as they are mine..." She said and Starfall nodded, knowing well that separating her from the tribe wasn't really an option...
"So, what now?..." He asked and he quickly realised that it wasn't really a good question as Little Strongheart wasn't sure herself. On one hand she wanted to be with Starfall, but on the other she didn't want to leave her family.
"Actually, you know what?... Leave everything to me! I'll figure out a way to satisfy everyone." He replied giving her another kiss before leaning down to the side and kissing her belly.
"Are you sure? I can also think of a way..." She said thankful in her heart for having such a reliable lover.
"It's alright. I already have an idea. Just give me some time." He explained and little Strongheart nodded.
"Now I'm just worried how to Tell the others..." He muttered.
"About that... Twilight already knows..." She said causing Starfall to perk up.
"She does?! How? When?" He asked and Lil smiled wryly.
"That time when I talked with her after our night together. She figured it out and promised to keep quiet untill I tell you myself." She explained, but Starfall had something else on his mind.
'That minx! And I had to suffer for a week when she was withholding such information the entire time?! I'm so gonna punish her now. Maybe by strapping her to the bed and having fun with the others while she watches helplessly?...Yeah... That feels about fitting...' He thought.
"Um...Starfall?" Lil asked and he realised that he was again brooding.
"Sorry, Sorry...So she knows, Huh? Well that leaves only the others then..." He said but Little Strongheart suddenly had an idea.
"What about you keep it to yourself for now?" She asked and Starfall looked at her confused.
"Huh? Why?" He asked confused.
"Well. Buffalo pregnancy usually takes around a year and a in case of it being a mixed species...Well...there was only one other example, but the pregnancy actually lasted for a while three years!" She explained and Starfall was shocked.
"Three years?! That's...wait...did you know from the beginning that we could have a baby?" He asked and Lil became red...
"I...I just wanted to have something to remember you by...I wasn't sure I would ever see you again..." She said a bit sadly and Starfall felt like he couldn't really blame her.
"I see...Well if it's going to take that long, I think we can keep it a secret for a while, but I'm going to speed up my project anyway so that the problem of distance doesn't hinder us in any way..." He explained with a smile before smirking."Now I think there is something we could do." He said and Lil looked at him curiously.
"What is it?" She asked and Starfall approached her with a grin.
"I never made love to a pregnant woman. I think it's time to show you how I feel." He explained by whispering into her ear making her shudder. Her crotch instantly starting to moisten...
It was going to be a long night....
