//-------------------------------------------------------// Of Sky and Apples -by steel soul- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// One and only Chapter //-------------------------------------------------------// One and only Chapter The Apple and the Sky By Steel Soul The warm summer breeze wafting through the apple orchard did little to quell the heavy feeling that was within Applejack’s heart. She paused in her trek to the barn, her gaze shifting towards the sky in hopes of finding some form of inner strength in Luna’s beautiful stars. There was none to be found for what she was about to do however. She needed to do it after all. No… She wanted this. The farm mare sighed heavily before pressing forward. Her destination; the old barn a ways away from the Apple Family home. She couldn’t help but reminisce at the fond memories, both old and new, she acquired from the old structure. Applejack’s head hung low just as she reached the door to the barn. With unsteady hooves she gently pushed upon it, a soft creek cutting the otherwise quite air of the orchard. Slowly, she stepped with in the barn, the glow of the moon her only source of light. Just as she did so, she felt something latch around her frame, quickly pulling her into a tight embrace. She gasped as the feeling of hot breath tickled her ear, sending so many familiar shivers down her spine. “I missed you so much Jacky…” A gentle whisper would muse, pleasing her ear further. It didn’t help that the pony had used the pet name he would always call her. “Sorry for being away so long. It was just one race after another. I barely got any rest during the tour…” “S-Soarin’.” Applejack said in a soft voice, a deep blush forming on her face. She could see his light blue fur wrapping tighter around her, imposing both fearful and longing emotions within in her. She had longed to feel his embrace again. She had thought of nothing else but feeling his course fur, the warmth of his frame against her own. It was almost too much to bare. She slowly turned her head to face the one behind her, emerald green orbs met emerald green orbs as her gaze locked onto his own; the excitement within the stallion’s own eyes could clearly be seen, even in the dim light of the Luna’s moon. She shivered again as she rested her head against his chest, her hat falling off into the dusty floor beside her. It had been weeks since she had properly seen him, posters and fliers not included. She couldn’t help but let her hooves move to grasp his own, the warmth of his body far out classing the summer air. If only she had to power, she wouldn’t allow this time…this moment… She loved him. There was no denying it. No matter how silly, or how much of a jokester he claimed to be, she loved every bit of the Wonderbolt behind her. She chuckled inwardly, remembering what she had remembered of him during their first few dates together. Sorin’ had been quite the nervous wreck when he had approached the farm mare. He looked as though he was a colt giving his first filly crush a Heart and Hooves day card. With Quaking legs and sweaty brow, he had declared his feelings for her, in front of her friends no less. If she was being honest with herself, she had really found the way he was shaking as he told her he wanted to court her, to be more than a little adorable on her end, an adjective she had never thought she would use for a stallion. Still, he was just that, adorable to no end. It was even more so when she had, for some strange reason she couldn’t place at the time, said yes. He had flown into the air, doing a double back flip before cheering like a bloody fool. And that is what she loved about him the most. From his childish naivety to his valiant brashness, Applejack knew that a pony who could display such affection shamelessly was indeed a good pony in her book. She recognized that no matter what any other pony may say about them, he was the one for her and her alone. Oh, and seeing the look on Rainbow’s speechless face was pretty great too. It’s why she needed to do this with him here…Now… “S-Sorin’…” She began again, hoping to Celestia that she could say what she needed to. She was interrupted as he placed a kiss upon her cheek a soft shudder of delight escaping her as he did so, “I brought you something, Jacky.” The stallion mused before letting one of his hooves free of her; He had reached into a small satchel that he carried. It had barely ever left his side the second Applejack had given it to him. It was a good luck gift that the Apple mare had hoof stitched herself, just before his first race back when they started being together. She knew that when it would get worn and shoddy looking, he would take it to Rarity to it fix up, making look as good as new. Despite Soarin’ asking her not too, the white unicorn mare had gushed to Applejack, the lengths he went to make sure it was kept it tact. Rarity was bad at keeping secrets that weren’t Pinkie Promised related. She felt him shift against her again, her eyes widening as she finally caught a glimpse at what his hoof holding. A single glass flower shimmered gently within the light of the moon, a rainbow hew shimmering from the reflection of the glass. Her hoof gently rose towards it, not daring to touch the magnificent object. “Soarin’…Its beautiful…Ah love it. I really, really do.” She said softly before gazing up at him. “Ah but that’s not the best part.” He giggled in a giddy fashion before gently grasping one of her hesitant hooves towards the object. She resisted only a little before allowing him full control of her actions, something she had slowly grown accustom to in their time together. The hoof pressed gently into one of the petals leaves, a gentle gasp escaping her as she felt the glass leaf bend against the pressure of the hoof. “Soarin’…What…Where did you get…” She began to ask, her voice slightly quivering. “How is it…?” “There used to be this amazing earth pony glass maker back in Canterlot.” He said gently turning the mare around to look at him. Applejack watched with shimmering eyes as Soarin’ placed the flower in-between her ear, the feeling of glass strangely absent within the make of the gift. “He used to make the most amazing stuff before he went off the map suddenly. This was prize that we won back in my last race. We had quite the argument over who would keep it but I convinced Fleetfoot to let me have it in the end.” “What? You whined and begged until you got your way?” She asked with a raised eyebrow, smirking. “Hey!” Soarin’ gasped a tone that screamed indignation in his voice. “I only whined.” He finished as he held his head up and away from her. He couldn’t keep that pose up long before cracking an eye and smiling at her. Both ponies erupted into a fit a gentle giggles before settling down. The farm mare brushed a bit of her mane out of her eyes as she looked up to the Wonderbolt. “Sorin’…I think ya kindly for it. I really do…” She gently stroked the flower before allowing her hoof to press into his face. “You’re always too kind ta me…ya know that partner?” She blushed as he pressed his cheek into the warmth of her hoof, his muzzle edging closer to her’s as he did so. “You deserve nothing but the best Jacky, and as your coltfriend, It’s my job to get if for ya. You are my special somepony after all.” “S-Special somepony…” Apple jack repeated before closing her eyes. “Ya dork…” It was always weird to her to hear those words come from anypony, especially if it was directed towards her. Yet the stallion in front of her would always say those same words to her without hesitation. And she knew them to be true. Soarin’ chuckled before nuzzling her cheek pulling her from her thoughts. He pulled away from her, making his way towards the barn doors. “So to celebrate my recent win streaks, what say I take you out for dinner tonight eh? I know a great place not too far away from Sugar Cube Corner that’s opened late.” He smiled wide and said. “It’s fancy too so I’m sure you and I can cause enough of a ruckus to get kicked out. I say...twenty minutes tops! That’s just enough time to get their bread I heard ponies rave about.” Just as he was about to make his way to the door, Applejack tugged at his tail, causing the stallion to nearly stumble. He look back, watching as the farm mare spat his tail from her maw. Applejack gave Soarin’ a soft sultry look before moving to grip his hoof in her own. With hesitant stallion in tow, the mare guided him, leading him to a mound of hay not too far away from the pair. Stopping in front of the hay pile, Applejack turned to face him, not once releasing his hoof from her grasp. She closed her eyes, gaining some hidden strength within her, before she slowly took off her hat, and laid it upon his head, causing Soarin’ to stare up at it with a confused look. “Applejack? You okay? What’s going-” A shaky hoof pressed into Soarin’s mouth silencing him. With a quivering look, the farm mare gently pressed her lips into his own, earning a widening of the stallions eyes and the sound of his wings shooting out in both directions in response to her actions. The kiss was hesitant at first, mostly on the mare’s part, but as they continued, it became more passionate. Soon Soarin’ raised hooves to wrap around her frame, drawing the mare as close as he could as both ponies drunk each other in. Soarin’s tongue flicking against her own as he began to explore the inside of her mouth, tasting every bit of the apple on her breath. Applejack, for her part, was giving it all she got, though her inexperience was painfully evident to her. Where she would just close her eyes tight and wrap her hooves around him, he would move his own up and down her body, sending shivers up her spine at certain spots, eliciting a moan or two. The kiss lasted for only a few moments before the mare and stallion pulled away from each other, Applejack’s half laden eyes staring back in to Soarin’s surprised ones. The light blue stallion adjusted the hat that sat upon his head before giving her bright smile. “Okay…That was kinda hot.” He mused. “Is that all y’all have ta say?” She asked with a deadpanned look. “Well…what else was to say. I think being kinda speechless and slightly breathless from the best bucking kiss my marefriend ever gave me is more than enough proof that I loved every second of it.” He chuckle as he nuzzled her cheek gently. “You do know that I’m always the one kissing you, right?” Applejack gave a sheepish smile at his words, knowing them to be true. Though they had been dating for quite some time, and while she did love him, the farm mare was never one to be overly affectionate with him, rather it was public or not. Sure there was a kiss here and a hug there that she would give him outright, but he would always be the one to initiate the snuggling if there was to be any. “Ah know…” She said softly before nuzzling into him. “But…W-Well…Ah think that it’s time for a change.” “A change eh?” He tapped a hoof under his chin. “Not sure how my psyche will cope with such a drastic stab at my daily routine.” He chuckled at his own joke, receiving a cuff upside his head for his trouble. “Hush ya dork.” She said with a deadpanned look before pecking his lips once more. “You’ll ruin the mood.” She pulled the stallion towards the hay pile, her back nestling into it. There was a certain satisfactory sparkle in her eyes when she noticed the stallion’s pink cheeks turn a brighter shade of red. “Woah…ah…A-Applejack…” Soarin’ gulped, his body automatically pushing into hers. “What are you…?” “Ah said hush Sugar Cube…” She said softly as she wrapped her hooves around his frame, gently rubbing the back of his head and just above the stallion’s wings. He shivered at the feeling, his face changing an even deeper red than before. “T-Take me Soarin’…P-Please…” Soarin’s jaw would have it the floor if he didn’t have the kiss the mare quickly planted on his lips to occupy his time, giving him extra incentive. She was asking him to take her. HER! Yeah, they have been dating for a while now, and yeah while he know that she loved him, her being this affectionate was completely…well….Weird to say the least. Still… The stallion gave a giddy giggle inwardly before nodding to himself. Take her he did! The warmth of his underbelly pressing down upon her own began to heat the air around them. The stallion gave her a kiss upon her lips, savoring the taste and scent of the Apple Farmer gave him before pulling away to look into her emerald eyes with his own. He could feel a stirring down below, his member slowly slipping from his sheath as a growing need filled his eyes. He gave the mare a sly but gentle smile as he let the tip push into her, the head of his flared stallion-hood pushing into her lower lips. He felt the mare jump in response under him before shutting her eyes tight, an action that he wasn’t use to with a mare like her. “Applejack…” He said as he brushed a hoof across her cheek. The farm mare epped at the sound of her own name before she snapped her eyes opened fully, seeing a concerned look upon the stallions face. She gave a not-too-reassuring smile as she responded. “Ah…Yeah Soarin’ …A-Aren’t y’all gonna start?” He raised an eyebrow to her before gently pushing his still hardened saber into her, eliciting another squeak of surprise. He could fell her joints lock up around her as if trying to curl into a ball for protection. With such a reaction heavy in his mind, the stallion pulled himself away from her slightly, causing the mare to look up towards him in a panic. She reached up, trying to pull the stallion back down upon her. “Soarin’ what are y’all…” “You’ve never done this before…have you?” Applejack’s eyes widened by degrees as she looked up to the stallion, a look of pure terror etched upon her face. She stuttered over her words as she tried finding some way to refute what he had just asked her. You never had a good poker face, did ya AJ? Soarin’ tried to pull away from the mare but was stopped by her hooves clamping down on him tighter than before. “No!” Applejack cried. “Ah-Ah’m okay! Really!” “But you have never done this before…have you?” He repeated the question. Unable to lie, Applejack looked at the stallion before answering. “I…I have…A long time ago.” “Oh…” Soarin’ said looking away. “Um…Do I know him?” “No…I reckon ya don’t. It was back when I was a teenager. A stupid mistake on ma part really. Soon as we had done it, he up and left me.” She said the last part with a bit of spite on her tounge. “Never really trusted another stallion after that…until…well…you…” It took some time before Soarin’ was able to fully process that information. “So…why do you want to do this now? Are you in heat or something?” “What!? No!?” She said, pulling the hat on his head over his eyes. “Ah wouldn’t be doing this otherwise!” She paused before adding. “Ya dork. Always ruining the mood…” He lifted the hat back onto his head, emerald meeting emerald once again. “Then…Why?” Applejack closed her eyes before opening them once again, though they were half laden. “Because…You…You never once pressured me into doing…well…this. I can tell when your lying and saying that you’re okay when I can clearly see that you wanted this.” “Well…Not to be a Buzz Killington, Celestia knows he knows how to ruin a good party. I mean, how can a pony with a top hat and a monocle be boring?! It doesn’t make any-!“ “Soarin’! Mood!” Soarin’ blinked and smiled sheepishly. “Oh ah…sorry. Um…As I was saying, rather I’ve been waiting for this or not matters little to me. I’m willing to wait as long as it takes to be with you.” “And that’s why we are where we arn now” Applejack said as she looked away. “We’ve been together for a while now and I see the way you look at my flank as I pass by.” She smiled as she saw the blush that popped onto the stallion’s cheeks. “Don’t worry, I’m not mad or anything…its just…well...Ah’m flattered really. Ah know a lot of stallions do the same, believe me, you’re not the first to try and court me. “The difference between them and you, Soarin’, is one simple fact. Ah love ya. What else can I tell ya but Ah love ya. Ah love that goofy smile. Ah love your silly personality. Ah love ya with all of ma heart Soarin’. And Ah know you wouldn’t break it, no matter how much ah make ya frustrated.” She blushed deeply as she looked back into his eyes. “And…Just kissing or hugging won’t express how much ya mean ta me. You never saw me as a rough and tumble earth pony mare, even though ah gave ya no examples ta disprove that.” Applejack gently pressed a hoof into his chest. “Well what can I say…When a Pegasus devotes himself to something…” Sorin’ nuzzled her gently. “They never let it go…Besides, a pony would have to be a fool to not fall for a mare like you. Beautiful, charming, quick witted. Just hanging out with you is a ride all in itself Jacky.” Applejack blushed deeply, the feeling of his muzzle against her neck causing a stirring within her. “S-So…Ah want ta do this. Cause Ah love ya Soarin’, with all of ma heart. Ah want to give you this chance.” She looked up at the stallion with hopeful eyes. “D-Do you?” She was answered with a passionate kiss planted upon her lips, the stallion wholeheartedly showing the mare just how much he did indeed love her. She was surprised at first, but soon sunk herself into the bliss that was the stallion’s lips, cooing softly as she wrapped her hooves around him. The kiss lasted for a good while before Soarin’ lifted himself up off the mare, the need for air proving too great for either of them. Both ponies panted heavily as they stirred into one other a sliver of saliva connecting from one mouth to the other. With an embarrassing epp, the farm mare quickly raised a hoof to her mouth, wiping the offending sliver away before blushing deeply. “Eh-hehe…Ah…Think we went a bit too far with that one?” Soarin’ chuckled as he gave the mare a wink. “Oh don’t worry none about that little miss. You’ll know if I go too far. Still, what I have in store for you will be more than enough to prove myself and tenfold.” He gave a toothy smile before adding in an accent. “I reckon.” Applejack raised an eyebrow at the stallion above her a look that she gave him whenever he was trying to be funny. After a second she gave him a sly smile, to which he gave her, in return, a confused look. To his utter surprise, in the most eloquent of pronunciations she asked him. “And what, pray tell, that is if you don’t mind me asking, do you have in mind good sir?” Soarin’ eyes widened at the fluent Canterlot-isk way she spoke, his wings twitching before standing erect again. To him, her voice was more beautiful than Celestia herself. “Oh…wow…Well,” He began and he kissed her lips gently keeping the country accent up. “I’m gonna show y’all how we do it down here in the country little miss.” Before she could every respond with a sassy retort, she felt the stallion slide down her body, planting gentle kisses upon the nape of her neck as he did so. Her body shivered with pleasure she had never known as the stetson wearing Pegasus slowly pecked, licked and nipped his way down her body. The earth pony mare instinctively pressed her hooves gently upon his head and spreading her legs wider, urging him downwards as he led her into the bliss that was euphoria. He moved past her chest, cause to mare to shudder. He moved best her belly, causing the mare to gasp. He moved past her navel, causing the mare to moan. Soarin’ smiled as he noticed the two small mounds, her teats erect with arousal. He gave a giddy giggle as the nuzzled one, making the mare above him gasps in surprise. Applejack looked down at him as best she could, her eyes shimmering with uncertainty. Seeing her, he gave her belly a gentle kiss before lowering himself again, pulling the hat down, obstructing her view. Once again, anything that she had on the tip of her tongue was cut off as a wet sensation pressed into her beast, running from the base all the way to the tip of the nipple. One back leg kicked out involuntarily as she felt it again, the wet sensation repeating past actions over and over again. It stopped suddenly, only to be replaced by a gentle sucking. The mare blush deepened as the stallion below her rubbed his hooves along her cutie marks, adding the already pleasurable experience he was administering to her. She felt a hoof play with the end of her mane, letting the tie loose and allowing her hair to become unrestrained. Her long locks scattered across the hay below her, picking up bits and pieces here and there. “Ah~” Applejack moaned softly doing her best to keep up the eloquent accent. “S-Soarin’ ~Hummn~ d-don’t stop…P-Please…” She panted as she closed her eyes, allowing herself to fall victim to his ministrations. Soarin’ really didn’t need any encouragement in that regard however. The apple farmer felt his lips clamp around one nipple, gently sucking before moving towards the other one, repeating his action. At times, much to her surprise (And delight) he would nip one of her tits gently with his teeth, making the mare jump. After a while, she heard a pop as he released one of her breast from his mouth, licking the tip gently before he pulled himself further down. The mare’s whine of protest was caught in her throat as she felt something brush into in to her most sacred of areas. She tried to looked down at him but found that the hat she had given him still obstructed her view. “S-Soarin’ I-I-Ahhahhh~” Her words were lost as the same wet appendage pressed into her lower lips, caressing the length of her marehood before flicking against something practically sensitive to the touch. Applejack essentially melted as she felt the same sensation again, repeating what it had done before, adding to the growing wetness of her marehood. Moans and gasps of pleasure racked her throat as he continued his ministrations, a probing sensation sometimes accompanying as she felt what she could only believe was his tongue slipping into her winking folds. All train of thought left the mare as pure bliss took over. Soarin’ had stopped his licking to press his lips at the top of her lower lips, creating a seal around the sensitive area. “Oh~ah…S-Soarin’ …that’s my…Its…” All form of her upper crust accent was gone as she pushed her hips up to his mouth edging him on, her hoof pressed in to either side of the stallion’s head, pushing her further down upon her thoroughly wet marehood. Her body shivered with pleasure and she released soft moans and gasps, sometimes whispering the stallions name over and over again. She could feel a pressure build within her, a pressure that she knew she could not hold for long when it came to a head. “S-Soarin’ ~ah~ I…I can’t last much longer…” Applejack could see the stallion’s ears flick at her words before slowly moving south, eliciting a gasp from the mare. He had kissed her lower lips as would reserve for their lover, before pulling her by her hips and keeping her still. She could feel his tongue gently sweep upwards along her marehood before slipping into her folds, penetrating her. Instantly her soft velvety insides compressed around his tongue, making the stallion slip more and more of his pink appendage within her. The mare seethed with pleasure as he began to lick her flower, taking in her sweet nectar. “Buuuuccckk~” The apple mare moaned, her hooves pulling him close to her flower as she could. Her penial tail inadvertently lifted upwards, pressing it into the stallions throbbing member. The silky fibers of her tail caressed his stallionhood, edging the building pre that was slipping from the tip to drip gently onto her tail. Having thought that he had warmed her up enough (And having his saber stroked in such a fashion that was making him go stir crazy), the stallion began to pull away, but not before planting one more kiss upon her wet marehood. He lifted himself so that he was eye level with the mare, his tongue lapped up his wet lips, making the mare blush deeply as to what he was licking clean. “You taste amazing Jacky…” He said as he gently kissed the base of her neck. “Think I found my new flavor of pie.” “D-Damn’it Soarin’ …” She said in a slur, her body still barely coming down from the high she was on. “Can’t go one second without a joke…” Before she could even start, the stallion began to twist the mare around. Forcing her to lie upon the grass, belly down. The mare’s tail instinctively lifted up of its own volition and her lower lips winked, already grasping at what was to come. Applejack felt Soarin’ press into her, his stallionhood barreling breaking past the wet barrier that was her flower. She felt his breath tickle the nape of her neck before feeling his tongue gently lap at it. The farm mare shuddered, pushing herself back to push him further into her. She groaned in annoyance as she felt the stallion push her hips back down, stopping her. “Tisk, tisk…Now AJ…What’s the magic word?” Sorin’ teased as he let the tip slip into her, causing the mare to gasp. “Ah~ I…I need this…Please Sorin’” She pleaded as she began to push against his hooves. “Say Pretty Please.” He mused, kissing her neck. “P-Pretty please…Sorain’…” “Now say Pretty please with a-“ “Ah will buck you clear across the orchard if you start fucking me right now ya dork!” The farm mare couldn’t help but smirk as she heard an audible squeak emanating from behind her. She felt her cutie marks grasped in a vice like grip, epping as the stallion pulled her close, his tip parting her wanting lower lips. Already her insides compressed around it, trying to pull the stallion further within her. He stopped just as the head slipped inside before leaning into her and whispered two simple words. “Hold on…” “H-Hold on? To WaaaaaAAAAAAAHHHH~” Before the mare could even fathom what he had asked her to do, she felt a powerful force push hard and fast into her, filling every inch of her sensitive insides. An audible slap come be heard reverberating from off the ceiling of the barn. Applejack, for her part, had nearly lost her hoofing when he had dived into her. She had struggled agatins him alittle but the look on her face said she’d never felt anything better in her whole life. Her marehood clenched around his member, already hard at work milking the stallion before he even rightly got started. It was like that for a few moments before the stallion pulled back, only to thrust into her, making the farm mare moan heartily. Soon a rhythm was formed as he pull back and pushed forward, pushing the mare into the hay she laid upon with each slap of his hips into her flank. She could hear the stallion moan as well behind her, mostly notably each time he would pull away. Her hot insides would instantly compress around his saber, as if to pull the stallion back to her. After a few more thrust, the stallion would lean into her, his teeth pulling at her mane as he slowed his thrust speed. He laid upon her, his hips moving back and forth against her rear in an almost sensual rubbing motion. She could feel her insides squeeze and compress around his stallionhood with each movement he made, building up to the pleasure she was feeling. He was being gentle with her and she was loving it. Applejack couldn’t help but whimper his name as she pushed her rear into his soft movements, making the stallion tighten his hold on her hips with each push. “Heh…” The stallion huffed, letting her hair fall from his mouth. “Getting into huh Jacky?” All he got in response was a whimper of an “Mhm…” from the mare. He pulled back, gripping her hips with both forehooves. “Good...Bet your close too...ah...I know I am...lets finish this up…” With his words came in increase in speed; every thrust becoming more powerful than the last. Her head swung upwards as his actions and she stop herself from releasing a moan of pleasure. “Ooooohhh, yeeeeaaaaahhh...F-Faster...Harder!” Both she and Soarin’ pants of breathlessness could be heard but neither would stop, not until thier dance was finished. Applejack gripped the hay under her tight as she just laid there, her rear raised while her tail moved further to the side, signaling that she was ready to burst. With one hard powerful push she could feel the stallion, her stallion, grunted, filling her womb with hot warmth, a feeling that made the mare scream out in ecstasy as she felt her pressure release, sending her into a euphoria that she doubted she could ever get to on her own. After a few moments of pure pleasure and enjoyment caused by one another, Applejack could feel Soarin yanked himself out of her tainted flower. Almost immediately, she fell back onto the hay, having raised her up for the climax. Applejack felt the stallion move beside her, pulling the mare close and kissing her neck gently. “Heh...I think I fell in love with ya Jacky.” “A-As oppose to how you already felt about me…” She shot back, wrapping her forelimbs about her lover and coltfriend. Soarin’ only chuckled lightly at her remark, his hoof gently stroking her mane. “What can I say? I calls em as I sees em.” Applejack sighed before nuzzling her muzzle into his neck, kissing it gently. She could feel herself slipping away into dreamland but allowed one last thing to mutter from her lips. “Ah love ya too...ya dork…”
