Chapter 1: The First Day

The mare rolled off the top of her partner, her back falling softly to the mattress. She was panting heavily as she looked up at the ceiling, her red and pink mane disheveled from the activity she had just partaken in. She glanced over at her coltfriend, who was also quite winded.

“Damn…” he panted. “You’re good… I wish your parents would go out of town more often, it’s been weeks since we’ve done this.”

Giggling, the mare turns to him resting her head on the pillow. “Yeah,” her voice gathered its normal tone. “It has been awhile since we have done that.” Her eyes focused on him as she relaxed in his forehooves. “Hey, Rock,” she said to the young stallion

He responded in his deep voice, strong and stable. “Yeah, Eve?”

“Thanks for being here for me. You know, whenever I’m lonely and such. You’ve been the best coltfriend I can imagine,” her red eyes close as she lays down in his embrace.

As she lay there with her eyes closed, she thought back on the relationship that these two had. They had known each other from practically the day they were born, which was the same day. They grew up together and became best friends, being practically inseparable.

As she climbed off the bed her tail was grabbed by the stallion. She turned to face him. His dark brown coat, lead to his hoof, was wrapped around her tail. She made eye contact with his green leaf-like eyes. “I love you, Eve.”

With a gentle smirk she smiled at him saying the message they’ve said each other since the beginning of high school. “I love you too, Rock.” With a flick of her tail she left his grasp and walked out of the room and to the bathroom. The warm water starts as she steps into the shower.

As Rock watched her leave the room, he rolled onto his back, placing his forehooves behind his head. He thought about Eve - like he always did - and their relationship. He thought about how their bond had strengthened over the years. They used to be best friends, now it was more. He would do anything for her, and he had always stuck by that since they were foals, when he protected her from bullies. He sighed as he thought about how he would have to leave to train to join the Royal Guard. Right now, he cherished every second he was with Eve.

“Hey, what do you want to do now?” She came back with a towel wrapped around her head. The steam leaving the bathroom as she finished her shower.

“I was thinking about just laying here with you,” He grinned a bit watching the mare return to the bed. “ Like we normally do when we’re alone.”

Her wings spread at the idea. He’s always known how to excite her. Not that difficult considering she was a pegasus. Without a word she climbed back in bed with him and wrapped her hooves around his neck as they kissed. The couple laid there and drifted into a dream as time went on. Next week school would begin, and their summer would be over.

The two young lovers continued kissing for awhile. Before long, it was late and sleep overtook the pair, and they fell asleep in each other’s embrace.

One week later…

Eve’s eyes shot open as her alarm clock went off. She lifted a hoof and brought it down on top of it. Today was the first day of her senior year in high school. She sat up in her bed and stretched her forelegs up, letting out a yawn. Eve then threw her blanket off and got out of bed, walking into the hallway and downstairs to get some breakfast.

“Morning, Eve!” Her mother exclaimed, always a morning pony. The ruby red maned pegasus stood at the stove preparing the young pegasus’s favorite breakfast. “You excited for day one of your final school year? I’m making your pancakes and sausage like you asked.”

Still sleepy, she walked to her chair and sat at the table. The scent of her meal waking her a bit. “Yeah, I suppose. Just not looking forward to ending it.”

“Why is that, sweetie?” Her mothers voice always caring. The gray coated pegasus walked over and placed the golden brown pancakes on her plate, the two sausage links sitting next to them with a bottle of syrup fresh from their maple trees in the backyard.

“Well, after this year Rock is off to join the Guard and defend Equestria,” Eve said. “I won’t be able to see him for years. I’m not really looking forward to that day when he leaves for the cadets.”

“Hmmm, I see. You know I was the same way,” her voice changed, now a calming tone. “When your father left for the guard I was a wreck. Everyday I went to the train station hoping for him to return and hug me like he did everyday.”

Eve remembered in that moment, her mother dated a guard for years. He left for the Crystal Empire and was injured in battle, but being the stubborn stallion he was he returned a few days later. Her heart raced at the thought of Rock going into a fight. That armor doesn’t protect knees from arrows.

Eve finished the rest of her breakfast and headed back upstairs to get her saddlebags. After she made sure she had everything she would need for her first day she went back downstairs and to the front door.

“Bye, Mom!” She shouted to the kitchen.

“Goodbye, sweetie! Have a great day!”

Eve walked out the door, where she saw Rock outside, waiting to walk to school with her.

“Good morning, sexy,” he greeted her, giving her a peck on the cheek.

“Morning,” she pecked him back as they began walking their normal route. She didn’t mind walking every morning, but the view was much better from the air. However, Rock was an earth pony and didn’t have the ability to fly.

The couple separated as they entered the school. The large amount of ponies walking broke them up as they went to their first hours of the day. Rock giving his “warm welcome” to the new hoofball players; Eve greeting every friendly face. Being the more popular of students certainly has it’s perks as the other students stare at her making a path. Her long legs stride through the halls. Her hair flips out of her face as she winks at a few cute first year ponies. Her body toned perfectly from the workouts she does with her lover. The young stallions took notice of her body as she passed by..

The day passed quickly, and soon, Eve found herself already in her last class of the day. As she scanned the room for any of her friends that she may share this class with, she paused when she noticed a blue unicorn mare sitting alone in the corner of the room. Eve knew who most of the ponies in her class were, and it was obvious that this mare was new. She figured that she could use somepony to talk to, judging by the nervous expression on her face.

‘Hello!” Eve said in her cheerful voice. She walked up to the new mare and sat next to her. “My name is Evening Breeze. I haven’t seen you around here before. What’s your name?”

Shyly looking away the mare’s blue and frosted mane covered the her face gently. Her mouth opens as speaks softly. “My name’s Winter Freeze, I’m new to school. I’ve heard you in the halls all day.”

She chuckles a bit. “I have that effect. I’m a very friendly mare.”

“Yeah, you seem to be. Any reason that you are talking to me?” She asked raising an eyebrow. Thinking to herself, why would a popular, pretty mare be talking to her? The new mare to school, that barely knows her way around canterlot let alone the school.

“You seemed lonely, so I thought I would make a new friend. So Winter, you looking for something to do after day one? My coltfriend has hoofball practice and I have cheerleading.”

“I guess I could do something, but I never cheered before. I’m not that loud…”

“You’ll do fine. Nopony thinks they can cheer until they try. Come on. I can get you an outfit to try out in from my locker.”

“Okay, that sounds nice,” Winter said, feeling a little more confident now.

The two mares stand up as the bell rings. The school day ends and the students, flood the hallways, meeting up with friends before they disappear from the campus. The stadium was as busy as ever. The cheerleaders stand on the sideline chanting and making noise while the hoofball players practice some plays. The whole time Rock and Eve watch each other. Winter’s focus is on the mare thats been so friendly to her on her first day in her new school.

Her purple eyes glimmering as she watches in awe at the mare. Her body elegant and tone moves graciously as she leads the routine. The more she watched her, the more interested she became in joining the squad.

Eve talked with the group of mares and they all dispersed. She left the field and went to Winter, speaking as she approached. “Hey, so any thoughts? Did you like it? Interested in it? We need a mare to top off the pyramid.”

“Sounds nice, I will gladly join the squad.” The unicorn said with excitement.

“Wow,” Eve responded in shock. “Most mares don’t want to join after day one. Very well, then. You’ll need a uniform. Come with me, we have extras in the coach’s office.”

The two friends go inside, the long day finally over. They walk out of the front door saying their goodbyes. Rock meets up with Eve as she turns the corner. Winter begins walking home with a smile on her face, happy to have made a new friend on her first day at a new school.
