Just another Pony.

Just another pony – Chapter 2 – It isn’t what it looks like!
Authors note: not sure on what to do now, I’ll probably just wing it.

There WILL be awkwardness in this chapter. I was surprised even when i wrote it. Anyways, I have chap 1-8 pre wriiten, so expect an update a day until 7 or 8; then 1 every other day. Cheers!

I slowly opened my eyes to the bright light of Twilight’s window. I flipped over and saw Twilight sleeping next to me. She slowly yawned and opened her eyes. Cute. When she saw me she immediately opened her eyes wide and sat up. What the hell?

She slowly spoke, “Oh no, what did we do last night?” THAT’S what she thought? Oh god.

“Whoa, calm down. Nothing happened last night. At least none that I was aware of. Why?”

“Oh, no reason. Just remembered the bathroom scene though.” She looked away blushing.

“Oh. I just wanted to forget that, that was REALLY embarrassing to me.”

“Don’t be! I mean, we can look past it right?”

“I guess so…”

“Spike, you up little bro?”

“Yup. Been up all night.”

“Why is that?”

“You were moaning too loud.”

“…”

“Kidding! Can’t you take a joke Ty?”

Thank god...

“All things aside Twilight, shouldn’t you be getting me to Apple Jack’s?

“That’s right! Just let me make some breakfast and we’ll get going!”

We had a light breakfast of a bowl of hay (where do they come up with these things?), but not before Spike gave me a playful punch and a wink.

“Come on Ty, don’t keep her out TOO long.”

“Come on Spike, you know I wouldn’t try anything like that.”

“Come on guys, it’s time to meet Applejack Ty.”

I still can’t believe she is calling me Ty. I’m not complaining though.

We started walking down a dirt road. I wonder if Apple Jack works at a farm.

Speak of the devil. After another 5 minutes of walking Twilight said, “Well Ty we're at Sweet Apple Acres.”

“So she works at a farm? I should have guessed it.”

“She’s probably out bucking trees.”

I snorted, trying to hold in a laugh. “Bucking trees?”

“Yep. Bucking trees. What’s so funny about bucking a tree?”

I was full out laughing at this time which for some reason made her blush and mad at the same time. “Stop it! Stop it! You’re killing me!” I was literally rolling on the dirt holding my sides.

Then for some reason I thought of last night before I fell asleep. Wouldn’t you believe it, my wings shot STRAIGHT OUT. RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER. You’re going to pay for that body.

“Uhh, Ty?”

“Yes? WHUP. S-sorry about that!”

“D-don’t worry about it.”

“Our little secret?”

“Deal.” Her blush only grew brighter at this. I think I’m really starting to like this girl. Err, mare.

“Soo, should we see Apple Jack?”

“What? Oh yes, she’s this way.”

We walked down a LOT of apple trees before seeing an orange earth pony bucking (lol) trees. I saw something standing next to her, and mentally screamed HOLY SHIT.

“Well howdy Twilight. Ah didn’t expect to see ya today, not that ahm disappointed that is. I was just out bucking trees (LOL) with John here. Ah wish Ah had known that yah had a new friend, Ah’m not sure if he’ll take John so well.”

I saw another FUCKING HUMAN. Standing nearly twice as tall as Twilight, he was the only human I’ve ever seen here!

“Sup uhh…”

“Tybalt. Though Spike and Twilight call me Ty. Sort of a nickname Spike gave me.”

“I see. Good to see another male here on the farm. I only have Big mac to talk to.”

“Nice to meet you John.” I was excited to find a human! I extended my hoof and did an awkward hoof-hand shake.

“Hey girls, mind if I talk to John in private?”

“Nah.” “Not at all.” “I don’t mind.” Apple Jack, Twilight, and John said respectively.

Me and John walked into the apple trees, not knowing the girls had followed us, out of sight.

“So John. I see you are… Different.”

“Yes, I hope it doesn’t bother you though.”

“Oh! On the contrary…”

“Yes?”

“Where are you from?”

Both the girls gasped, no one dared ask John that question. They both knew he came from a violent world.

“Does it matter?”

“Yes. It does more than you know.”

“I come… I come from a really violent world. One filled with death, disease, and poverty.”

The girls looked over to Tybalt, expecting to see a pained face. Instead, they saw only determination.

“Tell me something I don’t know.”

“What???”

“You’re from Earth, aren’t you?”

“…”

“Don’t worry. That’s something we both have in common.”

“…”

“I came from Earth too. Like you wouldn’t believe.”

“I don’t believe you. I’m the only human here.”

“You want me to prove it?”

“Yes, tell me an example of war in ‘our’ world.”

“I was in the 22nd swordsmen regiment of the royal army. Marching towards the French for a battle on a massive scale. I was out in charge of my regiment. In charge of 50 young men ready to give their lives to me without a second doubt. We met on the battle field. Steel was everywhere. I saw my men cleaved in half right in front of me. Their blood and guts were spilled on my body as I sliced through the enemy ranks. I Was shot with an arrow, blacked out, and ended up here where I met Fluttershy.”

John didn’t know what to say. He just silently stared at the ground. He knew Earth was bad, but not that bad.

“Are you a brony too Ty?”

“The hell’s a brony?”

“So, that’s a no then?”

“Correct.”

“Damn. I was looking forward to meeting another one.”

“Oh well. Let’s get back to the girls. They might start to worry.”

The girls quickly gasped and quickly went back to the tree Apple Jack was bucking.

“Hey Twilight!”

“Y-yes Tybalt?”

THAT one hurt. She was used to calling me Ty. This can’t be good.

“I think it’s time to go home, I just got done talking with John.”

“A-alright then.”

On the way back to the library I had to find out what Twilight had on her mind.

“Twilight?”

“Y-yes Ty?” Thank god, she was back to calling me Ty.

“Would you mind it if I called you Twi like Spike does? Or is that just an assistant thing?”

She seemed to perk up at this. “Oh, I wouldn’t mind at all! I’m surprised you haven’t already.”

“Thanks. Now what is bothering you? I can see it in your eyes.”

“N-nothing.”

“You sure? It would help a lot if you told me, but I won’t force you to.”

“Thanks Ty.”

We had arrived at the library now.

“Ladies first, Twi.”

“Thank you, my gentlecolt. Let me get dinner ready and I’ll call you down. Spike! I’m going to make some Pizza topped with Grass, for ALL of us, Ok?”

“Sure!”

“Well Ty, talk to Spike, read a book, or get comfortable and I’ll make dinner.”

“Thanks Twi.” Damn it, another blush. She’s so cute when she does that.

“Hey Twi?”

“Yes Ty?” (Damn rhymes.)

“Tomorrow I’m going to see Rainbow to see if she can help me get a job as a weather pegasus. Is that alright?”

“Only on one condition.” Ok, now I’m scared.

“What’s that?”

“Only if you use your first paycheck to take me out on a nice date.”

“So we’re dating now? YES!” Whup. Said that out loud.

“If you don’t I’ll have to keep you in bed all day.”

“Can I have both?”

“Only if you’re good.”

I think I just squeaked.

Spike spoke up from upstairs, “Well, Somepony’s happy.”

I then said, “Not happy, in love.”

“Whoop.”

“All right you two, dinners ready!”

“I can’t wait!” Me and Spike said in unison.

“We made small talk while eating the pizza that Twilight made. Delicious!

“So Twi.” I said, only to be interrupted by Spike.

“Woah, you call her that too? Should have guessed. Nice bro.”

“So Twi, tomorrow I was thinking of visiting Rainbow and asking her that favor. How much does a weather pony pay anyway?”

“The last time Rainbow told me, it was 30 bits an hour.” Bits? Must be like money here.

“I really hope I get that job now.”

“You remember our deal, right?”

“Wouldn’t forget it for the world Twi.” God I love calling her that.

After I showered All 3 of us went to bed, Spike curled up. Twi and me in our usual position. I still felt awkward putting my hoof around her, but I still managed it. She still managed to scoot closer still to me, my hot breath in her mane thanks to the way we were cuddling. Please let this moment last. That was when Twilight unexpectedly said, “Oh!”

“What is it Twi?” I knew the answer almost as soon as I said it. FUCK. Forgot self-control. I am NEVER going to live this down. Yep, I was ‘poking’ her. So many fucks were going on in my head.

“SHIT!” She jumped at this language. “Really sorry Twi, first the bathroom incident then this! I’m really sorry, I don’t care how cold it is, I’m going to sleep in the guest bed tonight. Really sorry.”

She tried to stop him but he was too blinded by his embarrassment to listen.

She nearly followed him into the guest room, intent to listen on what he had to say about her behind her back. She was flattered about what happened, but also thought it was too soon. They hadn’t even gone on a date yet! Then again, he isn’t like most stallions. He didn’t pressure her into trying to do it like so many other stallions did before. He was… very different to say the least.

“Son of a BITCH Tybalt, you just messed up royally in front of the only girl you’ve ever liked. She was smart, pretty, and LOVED books. You just HAD to mess it up, didn’t you? At least enjoy your last day here. She will definitely be kicking you out tomorrow for this. You better hope Rainbow can get you a job, because you’ll most likely be on the streets tomorrow. I just hope she can still be my friend. Even if it isn’t my mare-friend.

“Uhh, Tybalt?” Oh god please don’t have let her heard that speech. Just kill me now before she does.

“Oh, Hi Twilight.” I turned to face her. “I’m REALLY sorry about what just happened, my body lost control there. I really hope that we can still be fri-“

My speech was interrupted by her pushing her lips up against mine.

“Twi? What are you doing? I thought you would be furious!”

“I sort of was, but then I felt flattered that you would think of my like… that. Also, you exhibited a certain trait – Self-control. Instead of pressuring me to do something I didn’t want to, you controlled yourself and ran out of the room. I don’t know what you told yourself about that, but to me it showed a lot of control.”

“T-thank you Twi. Can I still go find a job tomorrow?”

“Is our deal still on?”

“Yes.”

“Then you can.”

“Thank you!” I gave her another peck on the cheek where she quickly blushed and looked away from me.

“Now, let’s go back to bed my prince.” Oh god. She’s giving me the ‘bedroom eyes’.

When we got to her room I gently pulled her into my embrace so that we were effectively cuddling. She buried her head into my chest, gently nuzzling me all the way. The situation was WAY too cute for me to get a boner this time. Thank god.

I was pulled into a restful sleep, with images of Twilight Sparkle all in my head all night. (NOT LIKE THAT PERVERTS.)
