Strong mumbled to himself as he anxiously paced around his room, glancing to the clock as it lingered around 10. His thoughts were running through his head without any notion of stopping, and his heart practically trembled in his chest.

I was straight up told to have sex with Twilight by the princess. She... she loves me... but what in Tartarus do I say?! Jeez, how do I even apologize for bringing that back to her mind?!

He groaned loudly and sat on the floor, running his hooves through his mane in aggravation. Sighing to himself, he chanced a look at the clock; just in time to see it turn a minute past ten. He felt surprise, anxiety, and hesitance all surface up at once. There was nothing that he could think of to try and work through the situation at hoof. Nothing prepared, nothing rehearsed, and nothing to guide him into a drivel of an apology. Or the... other matter.

He glanced up the clock once again, grimacing as he realized another two minutes had passed. Without another thought, he left his room and then the inn. It was near the center of Ponyville, so he would have some time to gather whatever logical thoughts he had left. There was barely anypony out on the street, save for a few partiers on their way to a good time. Strong chuckled as he amused the thought of joining them. Why wouldn't he? He had one giant mess he was on his way to deal with, and he always partied to forget everything.

...

...

He always partied... to forget everything.

...

It wasn't to forget everything... just her.

Strong's pace slowed, and he lowered his head to stare at the ground.

So that's what I've been doing with my life... trying to forget all that junk. Heh, who wouldn't... who wouldn't...

His hoof knocked into something, and he glanced down to see what it was. It was a charred piece of wood that seemed old and brittle. He knew where it had come from, and he picked it up gingerly. His home wasn't the first thing that popped to mind. No... he imagined the piece of wood when it had been burning. A danger to anypony on the receiving end. Just like he had been many years ago.

I can leave... I can just hop the next train out of here and forget this ever happened.

He slowly smirked, then chucked the piece of wood as far as he could.

Too bad I can't do that to her... jeez, am I screwed.

Before he did anything else, he galloped into Ponyville and searched through the market for a certain shop. Once he found it, he bolted to the stallion closing it.

"Lens! Mr. Lens!" Strong said loudly. The old stallion glanced to him and rolled his eyes.

"Did ya damage those lenses I gave ya last month?" he questioned angrily. "Now I told ya to be-"

"I have them on, Lens. Listen! I need a pair of glasses." Lens squinted before raising a brow.

"I thought you were a prettycolt, Strong. What do ya need 'em for?" Strong laughed and shook his head and handed Lens a small pouch of bits.

"Call it a change of heart," he smiled. "They cost the same as these contacts, right?"

Twilight sighed as she peered up at the clock above her door. It was nearly ten minutes past ten, and still not a single knock on her door. She'd sent Spike to stay with Applejack for the night, knowing how the night was supposed to end, and now she waited on her couch. She'd already sped through over a hundred books over the day, even a few special novels, and as the minutes ticked on she only felt more and more anxious. Luna never said when Strong was supposed to come, or if he was going to at all.

She just said she wants me to have sex with him... at night. Am I supposed to go look for him? Or wait? Ugh.

She thought back to what Luna had said about Strong. She knew his brother, and their family seemed to be nobles of some sort. On top of that, she said his heart had been broken before. She'd always read about stories with the concept, but would he really come to her after what she did? And after what happened to him?

*Knock Knock

Twilight froze, holding in her breath to keep silent. She waited for another knock, unsure if it had really happened.

*Knock Knock

She scrambled out from the mess of novels laying on her sofa and used her magic to organize them quickly. The most she could do was pile them up and out of the way. Taking a deep breath, Twilight walked over to her door and held the handle, but she couldn't find her voice. Until a particularly hard knock startled her.

"Who is it?!" she practically yelped.

She heard a familiar chuckle, then, "Who else?"

His voice sounded... at ease. Actually, it was like he was standing in front of her and smiling. She opened the door at last and, sure enough, there he was. Smiling like an idiot.

Like he always did...

Except...

...

"Why are you wearing glasses?" she asked softly, grinning at the sight of him.

He laughed nervously, then rubbed his head. "Well, reason one is: I knew it would be a good way to break the ice." Twilight rolled her eyes playfully, and Strong laughed again. "Reason two: I kinda need them."

She rose a brow, but he gestured towards her couch. "Oh! C-Come in!" Twilight exclaimed, smiling sheepishly as he walked in.

He sat on her couch, then watched as she followed after and sat at the opposite end. For a short time, they kept silent, awkwardly glancing around.

"So... why do you need those?" Twilight asked, looking over to him.

Strong sighed and took them off, staring at the lenses to picture himself in high school. "I can't see without them," he admitted, cleaning off a smudge. "I wasn't always like this. I wore glasses, I was scrawny, a nerd... the opposite of what I am now."

Twilight couldn't imagine what Strong looked like without... everything that he had now. "Really?" Twilight giggled. "You act like you've always been this way. What changed?"

She noticed Strong's smile dim, but he still held it. "There was this... filly, back in highschool. I thought she... loved me." He fiddled with his glasses as old wounds ached once more. "Turned out... she just need a ticket to college... and I was a geeky, rich sucker. I never wanted to feel that ever again... so I changed myself until no one could hurt me again."

He felt her hoof touch his shoulder, and he placed his hoof on her's. "You didn't deserve that, Strong," she whispered. "I know you didn't."

He shook his head softly and wiped his eyes, clearing up any moisture. "I was scared of letting another mare close, so I tried sleeping with mares left and right... but then you came along," he laughed, looking up at her. "I didn't want to take you home and bed you. I wanted something real... something I lost. But... I couldn't tell you."

She nuzzled his cheek, receiving a weaker one from Strong. "I've never loved somepony before," she told him. He glanced up at her, incredulous to hear such a thing. "I've never been interested in any of that, so when I met you it was kind of weird."

She fiddled with his hoof, her cheeks glowing a gentle pink. "Well... you're Celestia's Student, after all," he reminded her.

"Still," she smirked, "I didn't know what to do. I didn't know if it was because you're the first stallion I met by myself, or if it was just a crush... it kind of is, actually."

Strong laughed with her, watching her press their hooves together. "I guess it is."

She settled beside him, then lost her cheerful mood. "After... after what happened... I was scared of any colt or stallion," Twilight quietly said. "I could only trust my dad, my brother, and Celestia's guards. I practically ran home every day."

Strong held her hoof firmly. He could see the suffering she'd gone through just by watching her. She struggled to keep her tears at bay, but eventually a droplet found its way down her cheek. He reached around and gently guided her close, causing her to gasp silently. It wasn't a powerful grip... it was a gentle embrace. And just the feeling of it made her tears fall freely.

"He used me... like I was some... thing," she sniffled. Strong nuzzled her cheek, hoping she could overcome her pain. "He ruined everything I think about stallions... that's why I didn't want you."

She pulled away from him, putting a hoof on his cheek. "Twi... I won't let anypony wrong you like that... not anymore," he told her. "I... I love you... I love you, Twilight."

Her heart raced just from hearing those words, and her smile made him grin equally as happy. "I won't hurt you, Strong. Ever." She leaned closer, looking into his hazel eyes without fear. "I love you, too."

Strong's smile grew until he was sure he couldn't smile any bigger. And she laughed. As if they didn't spill their guts out to each other, they laughed softly. When they stopped, only one thing remained for them to finish. Strong moved closer to Twilight, and she did the same until there was no space between them. Their lips touched, gently pressing against each other with a subtle passion.

It wasn't hungry and sloppy like Strong was used to, but it felt much more satisfying than any kiss he'd had. Twilight pulled away slowly, her eyes lingering shut for a moment until the exhilarating feeling died down. She met Strong's eyes, and she smiled as he looked at her... lovingly.

"That was... interesting," he laughed, earning a playful nudge.

"Yes, it was," Twilight smiled. Before she said anything else, Luna's request popped into her mind, and her cheeks flared bright scarlet. "So... did the Princess say anything... other than my-"

"Yeah," Strong cut in, hoping to keep the mood upbeat. "I... take it that Luna said something about it to you, too?"

She nodded quickly, and Strong smiled as he put a hoof to her cheek. "We don't have to if you-"

"I want to," she interrupted, startling Strong. "I don't want to be afraid anymore. And if I'm going to get over this, I want you to do it, Strong."

His own face burned with embarrassment, and he laughed nervously. "So, how about we finish your lessons?"

She rose a brow at first, but then her expression changed and she smiled knowingly at him. "Where were we?" Twilight asked seductively, giving Strong her best bedroom-eyes.

"Somewhere around... here." He connected their lips once more, guiding her deeper while running his hooves along her sides.

Twilight shivered under his caresses, gently pressing against his broad shoulders and up his neck. She grinned as his tongue poked at her lips, asking for entry before she met it with her own. He teased and pleased with his technique, which still made her head spin.

"Now... you wanna... take him somewhere... comfortable," Strong panted between each kiss.

Twilight pulled away, giving him another grin. "Follow me, then." He took her hoof as she guided him eagerly up the stairs.

Strong grinned at her bravado, then noticed something... interesting. With each step,her flank swayed to either side, her tail giving teasing glimpses of her holy grail. lt was better than the last time, and he only drooled over the sight of her supple rear's hypnotic trance.

"Guess you remembered to tease," he murmured. She peered over her shoulder and flashed an innocent smile, just before riding her tail up to his chin.

Her scent filled his nostrils, along with a more... welcoming smell. They reached the top of the steps, and Twilight led him into her bedroom. Strong wasn't surprised to see it surrounded with bookshelves. She sat on the bed, and Strong moved over her as they locked lips, resuming their battle of tongues. Twilight toppled them over, feeling his hooves reach down to her flanks again. She squirmed slightly, and Strong noticed. He slowly moved his hooves, but her magic pushed them back down.

"It's okay," she huffed, pushing herself against his crotch. "It feels nice."

Complying with his mare's wishes, he kneaded her plump flank meticulously, earning sighs with every grope. She pulled away and voiced her pleasure, moaning quietly as she grinded herself harder into him. He grunted with every sway of her hips, handling her flank a bit rougher with every groan. His shaft was working it's way out of its sheath, and Twilight squeaked when she felt it slide past her marehood.

Strong sighed at the feeling of his member rubbing against her warm lips, but he looked up when he noticed her body had frozen. "Twi... maybe you should let him take the lead," he whispered. "He probably knows what to do."

She smiled through the pleasure and fear, then let him roll them over so that he was on top. He nibbled on her neck fervidly, tasting every inch of her lavender coat. Her pleasured sighs urged him on, taking attention away from his shaft laying on her nether lips.

"I-It... feels big," she moaned, moving her head to the side as he kissed her neck lovingly.

"Maybe for you... but trust me... it's normal," he said. His journey ended at her lips, savoring her taste as her tongue danced with his.

He pulled away from her, then placed his hoof over hers. They panted breathlessly as Strong looked down at her, then lower to her marehood. Twilight stifled a moan as he slid it along her dripping lips, grunting audibly as he imagined being buried in her. But he pushed that aside and waited for her.

Twilight could feel his pulsing shaft tirelessly slicking over her entrance, but she only grimaced at the familiar feeling. She clenched her eyes shut, resisting the urge to cry as an unwelcome voice popped into her head again. Strong could easily bury himself in her and she would be too stunned and pleased to stop him. It was just a matter of waiting.

"We don't have to." She opened her eyes and looked up to him. There wasn't a menacing grin, or lust-crazed eyes. It was just Strong... just a concerned stallion that wouldn't dare force her into something like this.

"We can try when you're ready," he told her. He went to move away, but Twilight wrapped her hind legs around him and pulled him in.

They both gasped as his head poked into her entrance, just barely spreading her. "I am ready, Strong," she said in her most assuring voice.

He gave her another grin and nodded. "Okay... just... let me know," he grunted.

Her grip tightened as he pushed into her, and she cried out when his mast penetrated. Strong groaned with her moans, then slowly pushed deeper. Twilight moaned louder with every inch that entered, and she prayed he wouldn't stop.

"Is... that it?" she questioned. He answered with a sharp thrust, and sheathed the other half into her waiting marehood.

She practically yelled at the ceiling, reaching a sense of euphoria a hoof could never bring. His member lodged to the base in her only brought one word to mind.

Full.

Blissfully, deliciously, full.

"T-Too much?" Strong panted, groaning with every twitch of her fiery walls.

Twilight wrapped her hooves around his neck, then forced herself to say, "Move."

He smiled goofily, then pulled out of her. She squealed softly with his slow thrust, then moaned into his ear as he worked up a pace for her. Strong's mind swirled with every pump. Her needy snatch gripped him desperately, begging him to keep himself hilted in her. And stars above, was he planning on doing just that.

"Don't hold back," she mewled, gasping as he hilted himself again.

With her consent, he let go of his previous concern and focused on one thing. Bucking her to the moon and back. He picked up his pace and slammed himself into her, their thighs slapping louder and louder, but her voice drowned it out. Twilight cried out in ecstasy, clinging to her stallion as he drove into her. Her horn lit at the tip, sparking erratically as she let out her moans.

"I'm... getting close..." Twilight squealed, feeling an alien sensation building. "Am... am I-"

"Yeah," Strong grunted, his nostrils flaring as he continued humping her. "I'm... I'm almost there..." Twilight squeezed her legs to keep him buried deeper than before, then guided his gaze to her.

"Don't... don't move," she gasped, moving her legs to his front. Strong eyes kept glued to her ass as she turned, with him still hilted, and presented herself to him. "Rarity... told me it's... better like this."

Strong felt himself throb as he stared at her modest flank. Then, he climbed over Twilight and planted his hooves firmly on her bed, his front snuggling up to her back. He placed a hoof over hers, then resumed his pace. The wonderful sound of his waist smacking her ass only fueled him to keep going, and Twilight gasping underneath him brought him closer to the edge.

The buildup was at its peak, and Twilight didn't know how much more she could take. "Strong... don't stop!" she screamed, moaning sharply to each pump. She slammed herself into him, pushing his shaft deeper than ever.

He couldn't hold it any longer. "Twi... I'm gonna... cum..."

With one final thrust, Twilight screamed into her covers as she let loose. Her walls spasmed wildly, covering Strong in her marecum. He finally tipped over the edge, and slammed himself into her as his head flared. Twilight moaned when his hot seed shot into her womb, filling her to the brim without any sign of stopping. She quivered as it overflowed and trailed down her legs, pooling with her own fluids on the bed.

When they fell from their orgasmic high, they fell forward, Strong supporting himself to keep from squashing her. Twilight panted harder than ever before, feeling Strong's breath on her ear as he did the same. She craned her neck back and pecked his lips unexpectedly, then sighed contently.

"That was amazing," she said to him, holding his hoof.

Strong smiled and nuzzled her cheek. "I'm glad," he panted. He groaned as he pulled himself out, letting their concoction of semen and marecum flow out of her.

"Mm." She knew just how much of a mess they'd made, but it felt too good to complain. "N-Now what?" she asked playfully.

He grinned once more, then guided her to the head of the bed. She snuggled up against him, and he pulled the covers over them.

"Now... you sleep with him, and think about keeping him or not," he instructed, kissing beside her horn.

Twilight dreamily giggled and yawned. "I'll keep him... and never let go."

Strong closed his eyes, and rested against her head.

And neither will he.

Present

Strong sighed softly as he remembered the best love session he'd ever had. Aside from the fact that this was his only love session. The sun rose high in the sky, beaming light into his eyes and into his lover's. Twilight murmured softly before waking up, stretching her hooves out and glancing to Strong. He smiled down at her and kissed her lips, just as they tasted their morning breaths.

"Aw, gross," Strong laughed.

"We're never doing that again," Twilight told him, giggling softly.

The two sighed, then snuggled for a while before they decided to wash up. Before Twilight did, he grabbed her and said, "Wait! Don't move."

He reached down beside the bed and grabbed his glasses, then gestured for her to come closer. "What?" she laughed.

He put his glasses over her eyes and moved back, staring at her with an enormous smile. "You look cuter with those on," he chuckled.

Twilight blushed crimson and looked off to the side. "Come on, we need to shower," she reminded him. He nodded and moved around the side of the bed, but something caught her eye. "Strong... your Cutie Mark!"

"Twi, you're kinda killing the mood," he deadpanned.

She shook her head, then fired up her horn and turned him to look at his flank. The scars had vanished. His Cutie Mark was no longer hidden by the mark of his past. He could see it, and just examining it made him laugh.

A shield in the shape of a heart.
