Coming Clean

I sighed, the only thing I could hear was the ground crunching beneath my feet as I walked down the dirt path, the sun was almost down over the horizon as I walked back to my home. The orange and purple sunset was nice to see, except for the dark clouds that were rolling in, the expert work of Rainbow Dash. She told us there was going to be a storm tonight, so I was hell bent on getting home. I was beat, not just tired, I felt like falling down and taking a nap right in the middle of the road. It has been about four months since I arrived in Equestira. Went to sleep one day, woke up in the hospital here. The mane six, as I called them, said they found me at the boundary of the Everfree Forest. After I stopped freaking out and got settled in, I started doing odd jobs, mostly hard physical labour, and worked to the bone.

I'm no pony, only human, and humans weren't meant to be able to do all these things. Although, I did get quite a lot of bits working how I did, I guess having hands here makes a lot of job easier. But I was still paying Twilight back after she tried to teach me to cook, and I managed to almost burn the library down. Though alicorn magic is really strong and easy for her to do, I insisted to pay her back in full through some heated debating I convinced her to accept the bits. I arrived at my hand built home, just a bit past Sweet Apple Acres. I bought the land off Applejack, even though the was about to give it to me, I convinced her to take my money as she would anypony else. I paid for everything, never once taking advantage of my friends.

As I approached my house, I felt a little uneasy, knowing I was going home alone. I put my hand on the door knob, tears running down my face as this was the one place where I could let my emotions go. I was lonely, terribly lonely, I only ever had a couple girlfriends in my life, not to many friends, but I managed. But some nights, I laid there in my bed, wishing that somepony was in bed with me, somepony who I could cuddle with as we both fell asleep.

But I craved for companionship, a girl to hold in my arms, her head on my shoulder as I ran my strong fingers over her back, gently kneading them into her. But her skin wasn't there, instead it was a layer of fur, soft to the touch. Being surrounded by ponies, you learn that they are much like humans, the key difference, is that they have a coat of fur, walk on four legs, and some have wings and others, horns. Some may call me a sinner, but... I found these ponies to be... Slightly attractive.

Their colourful coats, styled manes, and beautiful eyes. And they walked around naked most of the time, the only thing covering their privates was their tails, and their flanks as they call them, they were something to look at. I licked my dry lips, a gentle clicking in my mouth as I accidentally ran my tongue piercing against my teeth. But I'm getting ahead of myself.

My name is Nick, Nick Stotes. At only sixteen, I am quite a few years younger then the mane six, but I don't show it. Nopony has managed to guess my age, I have kept it a secret and all the guesses are in the twenties. Anyways, I have a medium length auburn hair, something that has gotten me some stares from a couple mares. I am built, for my age, doing physical labour for months is hard on you. In a hoof wrestle, I could almost beat Applejack, but Big Mac, hell I ended up with a splint last time. I am six feet tall and a pretty shy guy. I have a little facial hair, just a chin strap nothing too special and bright blue eyes. My tongue piercing is a full metal barbell and matching metal balls. Something I got for a girlfriend, that is, if I could ever bring myself to ask a girl out.

I am a more shyer guy, most kids my age, from back on earth are all about parties, drugs, drinks and sex. I would say I completely different. I'm more reserved, play some music from time to time, and have never had sex, not even close. I'm not ugly by any means, heck, I've been hit on already in my time here, but after learning from Twilight what the Equestrian culture is like, that's not surprising. Here, a single stallion is very prized, most are bedding almost every night. But me, not so much as I opened the door to my quiet home. It was cold, the air temperature was starting to drop as it neared the end of fall, and went into winter. Or whatever Equestrian equivalent there is, I just always called them by the four seasons I was taught.

I walked over to the fire pit, putting in some kindling and a bit of fire starter. I lit a match and threw it inside and it lit up. I smiled, heading over to the kitchen to see what I could scrounge up. I had made this little shack all by myself, with a little help from Applejack, but managed to get by just fine. It was not that sturdy, and in heavy winds, I thought it would tear off the ground. As I looked around for something to eat, I frowned at what I could find. Some spoiled food, and some rice.

I sighed, having another lousy meal was not doing well for me. I grabbed a pot and went over to a bin full of water, scooping some up and walked back to the fire place. I sat down, putting the pot over top the burning flames and I poured some rice into the pot. As the water was brought to a boil, I remember back to when I first came here, having nothing but the clothes on my back. The six girls, my closest friends had gotten me up on my feet and I always felt guilty, so I insisted to pay them back. It wasn't always money, as I often did favours for them.

I walked over to my bed, picking up the most important thing that I had here. I picked up my acoustic guitar, something that reminded me of my past life, and it was good to unwind with a little music for time to time. But the only down side, it cost me a fortune, but was well worth the price. I even got a couple hundred bits off because the owner saw I could really play it. I was pretty good, arguably the best in Equestira, seeing how only unicorns can play them, and fewer are centred around music, so there wasn't much competition. I got a chair up next to the fireplace, the dull warmth coming over me as I started to play.

This was my ultimate stress reliever, and it got some attention from others as I would occasionally go out to the park and play. I never once accepted bits, even though some offered. I was just playing music, and others seemed to enjoy it. That included one mare, who took quite and interest in me, Lyra Heartstrings was her name, and true to her name and her cutie mark, she played the lyre. She was also quite the conversationalist, wanting to know a lot about my own world as I sat there, Lyra laying beside me as we spoke, my playing never stopping.

My attention snapped back to reality when I heard a light knocking on my door. I grumbled, standing my guitar next to the fire place. Who the heck is out here this time of night? When I went to the door and opened in, standing in the pouring rain, with thunder and lightning, was none other then Twilight Sparkle. I felt my cheeks get a tad warmer, I had always had a crush on her, from the day I met her. I always had a thing for smart girls, and she was as smart as they come, even though sometimes she lets her book knowledge get the better of her. She curved in all the right places, even though I assumed she didn't mean it, she was just naturally beautiful.

“N- Ni- Nick... Can I come in?” Her teeth chattering voice snapped me back, my eyes trail down to her again, I quickly stepped aside and she trotted in, literally soaking. I rushed to my bathroom, grabbing a couple towels and when I got back to the main room, she was shivering next to the fireplace, placing a couple bigger logs inside.

“Here, let me dry you off.” I felt my pulse quicken, hoping she would say yes and allow me to touch her. She slowly nodded and I kneeled behind her and wrapped one of the bigger, custom made towels for my size around her. As I got to work, drying the alicon off, a question was burning inside me that demanded to be let out. “What brings you here in the middle of a storm Twi?” I barely managed to keep my voice straight as I dried her soft fur, her body, tensing at my touch a little before she relaxed.

“I just wanted to check up on you. This is a big storm, and I wanted to make sure you were ok.” I looked a little, her gaze set to the fire and I noticed she was blushing a little as my hands made their way over her back, and around to her front. She must of looked into the pot, noticing what little food I had. “Is this your supper?” She gently laid back into my arms, letting me get a bit further down, but I didn't go too far, not wanting to offend her and ruin my... Heck, I didn't have a chance with a princess.

“Yea, I don't really have anything else...” I didn't meet her gaze, instead I kept my attention where my hands were going. I was about to head back up when her hoof stopped me, gently resting on my hand.

“Nick, would you like to come back to my place for the night? I have plenty of food there.” My stomach growled at the mention of food and I licked my dry lips. I looked up, my arms warped around her stomach, her gorgeous lavender eyes looked into mine. “Nick.. It's ok, I don't mind.”

“But how? It's pouring rain outside.” She just giggled and rolled her eyes.

“I can teleport, remember?” I smirked, that had completely slipped my mind. I moved my hands back, bringing the towel to dry her mane. She leaned it a little closer, letting my completely dry her off. Once I was done, she wrapped her hooves around my neck, hugging me tightly. “Thanks...” I was caught off guard, but soon wrapped my arms around her back. She hummed lightly and pulled back, sitting back and her horn started to glow. “Alright, hold on.” She closed her eyes as her horn glowed brightly and I felt myself get pulled hard as we teleported.

I fell to the ground, she teleported us to the entrance of the library, she was under the front awning but I landed onto the ground right in a puddle. “Great...” I huffed as I got to my feet, my shirt was soaked, my pants weren’t as bad as I got next to Twilight. I quickly stripped my shirt off, a little grumpy as Twilight opened the door.

“Sorry, sorry, sorry... I've never tried to teleport a human before, I guess I was off a little.” I just smiled, knowing she meant well.

“It's only a shirt, it will dry.” I felt my pants, and thankfully the only wet parts were the shins. Her horn glowed as she took my soaking wet shirt and it floated away, presumably to be hung up. My stomach growled, my hand going to rest on my abs and I felt really hungry. She trotted off towards the kitchen, her horn glowing as everything started to turn on, stuff coming out from cabinets, and worked together. I took a seat on a couch, though it was small for a couch. I felt the back of my pants soak my skin and I stood up. “Umm, Twilight?” She glanced over her shoulder, my hand going up behind my head to scratch the back. “M- My pants are... Well a little wet as well...” I noticed a feint blush as she tuned back.

“You can hang it up next to your shirt, I'll get you a blanket you must be cold.” I nodded and walked off, finding where she had hung the soaking wet cloth, and removed my pants, socks and shoes as I hung the clothes up, setting the shoes next to the fireplace she had. I was getting cold, my mostly hairless body couldn't control it's temperature that well with out something on me, so I was starting to shiver. I felt a blanket wrap around me and I looked down at the purple alicorn, she smiled a little and offered me bowl of soup. I took the bowl, setting it down as I moved a couch over to the fire pit and got on it.

Twilight followed me, laying on the other side with a book near her face, her magic controlling her spoon as she fed herself. I was always intrigued by unicorn, or in her case, alicorn magic. She must of noticed me staring at her because she raised and eyebrow. “What's up?” I blushed, my gaze going down to the bowl of soup in my hands.

“I... I just wanted to thank you, for everything.” I took a spoonful of soup, the taste was so divine, that I dove in, eating spoonful after spoonful. “Man, Twi this is fantastic!” She smiled and turned back to her book. After a couple minutes, I finished, putting my bowl onto the floor and looked around, the library was sure quiet tonight. “Where is Spike?” I didn't see her dragon assistant around. He gave me a bit of trouble when I first arrived when I was helping Rarity, and I made him, and I think everypony that I wasn't interested in ponies. Yea, big mess up there, surrounded by them twenty four seven and they all think I'm not interested. Anyways, Twilight just chuckled at my observation.

“He went to help Rarity collect gems, and I assume he stayed there for the night.” She shifted a bit closer, and I laid back, the warm fire was helping my heat stay in, but I still felt a little cold. After a couple minutes, Twilight put her book down and ran her hoof gently over the blanket, trying to get her hoof under it. Eventuality she spoke in a quiet voice. “Nick, do you think I could have some blanket?”

I looked over at her, she was doing that adorable smile, her ears flayed to her head as she look up at me. Even if I didn't want to, there was no way I couldn't give in to that. I just smiled and unwrapped myself, putting some over her but she surprised me by getting over and laying on my lower body, pretty much laying in my lap.

Although I was here for four months, I still didn't understand all their cultural differences. I once got a good buck to the mouth from Applejack, what I thought was a friendly pat on the back, seemed to be a little too low. I discovered later, that I was pretty much telling her I wanted to mount her. After learning from Twilight what that was... Man, did I feel like an ass hole after that. I shook that old memory away, and looked down at Twilight. She had her eyes closed, laying on my bare chest as she blanket came up around her neck. At first, I didn't know what to do so I just laid my left arm over her back, making to keep it up but away from her wings because they were apparently sensitive, a smack to the mouth from Rainbow assured that wouldn't happen again.

I left my other hand to rest on the side of the couch, my heart beating a thousand times a minute as her soft coat rubbed my skin. I heard the tell tale sign of her using magic, my eye opened a little and I noticed she was looking up at me, a purple flower that was quite pretty was in front of my face. “What's this?” I took it instinctively and her eyes widened, a very deep blush on her face as she looked at me.

I looked at the small flower in my hand, it looked fresh and still had some water on it, leading me to believe she got it right when the storm hit. But what happened next, I never saw coming. Twilight leaned up and put her hoofs on my shoulders before locking lips with me. My eyes went wide, my hands going to her sides, trying to push her a little, but it felt so good, so intoxicating as her lips started to move. She tilted her head, her flat tongue licking against my lips and I relaxed my jaws, letting her tongue inside. She wasted no time in driving her tongue inside my mouth, her smaller flatter tongue rubbed against my own, stronger human tongue.

But once she felt my piercing, she melted in my grasp, her body going a little limp as I started to respond to her and closed my eyes. I moved my right hand to the back of her neck, gently holding her to me. After a minute or so, she pulled back, her breathing was quicker as was mine. She smiled and sat down, my heart skipping a beat as I felt a wetness on my crotch. “So you do want to.” She said, but I gave her the most confused look ever.

“I wanted to do what? You were the one that kissed me.” She seemed very taken back by this and flayed her ears to her head, sniffling slightly.

“Bu- But the signs were all there! And you took the flower!” I looked at the discarded flower and looked back at her. “That means you want me to be your first mare!” She was on the edge of tears, but I was more confused the ever.

“What... Wait... What does this mean?” She seemed to turn a bit angry at my reaction, obviously hearing something she didn't like.

“When a mare courts a stallion, she presents him with a flower of her own coat colour. If he accepts, that means he takes her in his heard!” After piecing together what she was saying, my face instantly flustered. She pretty much wanted to bed with me. “You took the flower, but now you say you don't want to!” I gulped, I hated seeing her this hurt.

“Twilight, I'm not from around here.” She sat back a little, allowing me to be a bit more comfortable and I started to explain how human relationships work. “And it's usually the guy who asks the girl. But I guess it is backwards here, so I'm sorry if I don't completely understand your courting customs.” She seemed to be on the brink of tears, her lips lightly quivering as I spoke. “I just thought it was a little gift, maybe a sign of friendship, or you wanted to date.” She intently nodded, wiping her face with her hoof as she sniffed.

“So that's why you took the flower, you thought it was a sign of friendship.” I nodded, her expression that followed hurt me deeply. “Oh...” I put my hand on her shoulder, gently rubbing it and came a bit closer.

“But now that I know you love me... I think it's time I came clean with my own feelings.” With that, I leaned in for a gentle kiss, just a short one, but I kept on going, kissing her over and over. Her body tingled with these foreign actions of mine. I guessed they were almost all about the sex, and nothing about the foreplay. My hands roamed her body, running along her sides and I pushed a little harder, not pulling back this time as I started to move my lips.

She clearly was not used to the male being the dominant one as she shivered but soon pushed into it. I rolled her over, my manhood starting to stir from the intense feelings. I pulled back, my crotch pressing against hers and she looked down, a scared look on her face.

“A- Are you going to... Put it in?” She nervously asked and I just smiled, trying to keep cool on the outside as I shook my head.

“Haven't you heard about foreplay?” She blushed, licking her lips as she fidgeted lightly. Her hooves were tucked into her chest and it turned me on all the more.

“That is really only something mares do with other mares...” I grinned, she was going to love what I was about to do to her. I kissed her neck, leaning in, letting my erection poke her moist nether lips as I made my way down her body.

“Well, you are in for one heck of a ride.” I kissed my way down her body, feeling her muscles tense each time my lips made contact with her soft fur. “But if you want me to stop, just say so...” I trialed off as I found myself, face level with her teats. I ran my hands up her chest before bringing them back down and gently cupped both them in my hands.

“Ohh...” She lightly moaned as I gently squeezed with my fingers before I leaned down to her left nipple and gave it a test lick. She shivered when I did that and took in a sharp breath as I twirled my tongue around her sensitive nipple. I then took it into my mouth, gently biting it then I started to suck on it. Her body was twitching, every time I sucked, she tensed. She stretched herself out, her lower body quivering as I changed nipples. “Oh Nick... That's... Strange...” I smiled and let her nipple out of my mouth, both standing proudly at attention and I looked down, my face flustering as I noticed her wetness on my belly.

I took a deep breath, her mare scent wafted into my nose and sent out surges of testosterone, my cock was fully hard now, eight inches and fairly thick. I kept going south when I found her nether, pulling back to look at it in all it's glory. Having been raised near a farm, I was faintly familiar with horse anatomy, and being a teenager with access to the internet, I was familiar with human genitalia. Hers was a mix, it was nice and tight looking, her love bud was covered with the small layer of skin. I smiled, looking up into her eyes, which had a look of arousal, and uncertainty.

I gently touched her inner thigh, trying to set the mood and spoke. “It's ok, this will feel amazing, trust me.” And with that, I leaned in and breathed on her lips. She gasped and tried to clamp her hindlegs shut, but I put my hands on them and forced them open, her lips lightly spreading, her excitement was evident as her juices were stringing across her lips. I leaned in, staring deep into her lavender eyes and placed a slow, luscious lick up her cunny. Her head fell back, her body was nothing more then a quivering mess as I licked her again, then again. Each time, she moaned softly and breathed a little harder. I licked her clit a little, her body arching off the couch and I did it again as she moaned even louder.

“Oh Nick! That's amazing!” I pulled back, a thin strand of her juices connecting us still and I chuckled. I moved my right hand off her inner thigh to pull the thin layer of skin off her love nub. She looked down as I did that with the most pleasured look I have seen, and then leaned in then kissed it before taking the little nub between my lips and sucked. She started to buck her body off the couch, making whimpering noises as she couldn't get anything out. I flicked the little nub with my tongue before I flicked my piercing against it. I then brought my right hand just below my chin and inserted my middle finger into her. Her walls clamped down hard, pulling it deeper inside her tight warm love tunnel. “I- I'm.... Cumming!”

She tensed and I removed my fingers, putting my entire mouth over her lips and started to suck. Her juices spilled into my mouth, they tasted really good so I flicked her clit, again and again to keep her pleasure at an all time high. She convulsed, her body wracked with pleasure as she stifled a yell. I then drove my tongue deep inside her, searching for her G spot. I wiggle my tongue all around, and when I hit it, that instantly sent her into another orgasm. I focused my attention on that spot, her hips grinding into my face as I drank her juices down. After a couple minutes, and five orgasms later, I stopped, cleaning her lips before I pulled back, her half lidded eyes staring blankly at me. “Oh... Sw....”

She could barely talk as was about to wipe my mouth but she pulled me into a deep kiss, licking any traces of herself she could find. After about ten seconds, I pulled back and cuddled beside her, holding her as she calmed down. I felt my manhood push into her thigh, but it didn't matter, as long as she enjoyed it. She took a deep breath as she rolled over, her eyes going down to my throbbing member. “I guess I got a little riled up.” I sheepishly said as I proceed to scratch the back of my head.

Twilight just smiled, her tongue licking over her lips and I had a feeling where that was going to be. She rolled on top of me, her look was a little playful, still aroused as she shimmied down my body. I winced, my erection was throbbing, a little bit of pain the blood pumped it up to the biggest it could be. I whimpered as her hoofs trailed over my lower belly only to have her shush me quietly. “It's ok, let your princess take care of you.” With that, her hooves met up, gripping each side of my manhood and she squeezed. I stifled a groan, my pre was already leaking and the tip of my underwear was wet with my own arousal.

She smelled my scent and leaned in, taking a test lick over the top and I shivered. She licked her lips and smiled. “Tasty...” With that she began to swirl her tongue over my boxer clad tip, leaving me nothing but a shivering wreck at the sensitive attention I was receiving. She soon put her mouth down, latching her lips onto the shaft and she went up and down, gently sucking at my cock.

It felt amazing, I thought I would of busted before, but my orgasm was seemingly far away. “Oh Twilight...” She smiled and let go, grabbing my waist band in her teeth gently and pulled my underwear down, letting my cock spring free and boop her on the end of her muzzle. She first went to my balls, inhaling my scent before she placed a long, slow lick up my shaft, from base to tip before swirling her tongue around the tip before opening her mouth and slowly took the head inside.

I was in heaven, her mouth was warm, wet and... Words cannot begin to describe the feeling of it, my eyes rolled up as she rotated her head and took a couple more inches inside. She was inexperienced, but she made up with boat loads of enthusiasm, so much so that she tried to take me all the way inside. Once the tip hit the back of her throat, she gagged on it, her throat muscles clenched around the head and I gasped when she pulled back, coughing a couple times.

She shook her head, looking up into my eyes, her hoofs laying over my hips, keeping my lower body down and she leaned in again. “I guess I need more practice...” With that, she took my cock into her mouth again, taking in as much as she could in one go, a couple inches left outside. I put my hand on her head, scratching right behind her ear and she let out a little moan, her sweet voice sending vibrations through my shaft. She then took a deep breath and pushed down, taking me further into her amazing mouth, her tongue dragging against the bottom of my cock.

I pushed her down as well, and before I knew it, she took me to the roots, her tongue coming out a little to lap at my balls. I groaned, my orgasm fast approaching as her tight throat constricted against the tip, the amount of pleasure was crazy and left me shivering. She pulled up until just the tip was left inside and then she locked eyes with me, smiling a little before she once again took me to the roots. There was no teasing this time as she quickly came back up and pushed down, closing her eyes in concentration as she bobbed on me.

I was in heaven, my hand still resting on her mane, occasionally I would scratch behind her ear, but my body felt numb, my cock throbbing as it prepared to let loose all I had.”T- Twilight... I- I'm gonna cum soon.” I grunted out, her efforts doubling and my eyes went wide. There was no was she could possibly want it in her mouth... Right? Regardless I started to pump my hips, grinding her muzzle to my groin each time she reached bottom. “Oh Twilight... It's coming!”

I thrusted up, pushing her down and my vision blurred into a whiteness as I felt my cock throb and my seed shot up and into her mouth. I felt limp, her lips still sealed around my cock, her tongue swirling around the shaft as I shot rope after rope onto her tongue. She almost purred, she must of liked the taste of my seed because she let it all in until I stopped, she then started to swallow. My body randomly twitched, that had to be the most powerful orgasm I had ever experienced in my life.

After she could coax out no more, she straddled me, lowering her body to mine and whispered to me. “Were not done yet...” She nipped my shoulder, seeing how that was about as far as she could reach when I felt something wet on my cock. I opened an eye, she had a look of need in her eyes, her body trying to line my still hard cock to her slick entrance, but as my body was must different from hers, I decided to help the poor alicorn. I reached down to help her, grabbing my saliva slick cock in my hand and felt for her entrance, pushing the tip against it. I leaned down and kissed her on the nose as she lowered herself down, just the tip entering her and she yelped.

Her cheeks were flustered as she pushed more in, her mouth hanging open and she panted as her incredibly tight walls spread for my invading member. She was so tight, it almost hurt. But in the same breath, it felt so amazing. So amazing in fact, that I struggled for breath as I lost it all. I rested my hands on her hips, urging her to continue and she did just that. It took a minute or so, but soon, our groins met and she panted hard, laying against me. “Oh wow... It's soo big... I... I can't move...”

She struggled to sit up so she could raise and lower herself onto me, but her hoofs were too shaky and she fell against me. I just smiled and rolled over, keeping myself buried in her and put my hands over her shoulder, being face to face. “Just focus on yourself, I will handle everything else.” I leaned in and kissed her before I pulled back and gently pushed my hips back to hers. She moaned, breaking the kiss as she put her forelegs over her head and I smiled, gently rocking my hips against hers.

I sat up, grabbing her hind legs and started to push a bit harder, making her squeal a little, her inner walls clenching against my cock each time I almost left, trying to drag me back inside when I did just that. Our hips met with a dull wet smack, her fluids were leaking over my groin, her butt and a bit onto the couch. But we didn't care, we were in our own little world. Her tight insides felt like a velvety vice as I kept pumping, never stopping or slowing, but ever so slowly I sped up. “Geez Twilight, you are so tight.” I grunted as I moved my hands to her sides, pulling her back as I pushed forward.

She just lightly punched me in the shoulder, her face flustered as I continued to make love to her. “Well it's because you are really big.” I grinned, having her say that made me feel a little pride as I pleased the mare I loved. “Do you think you could go a little faster?” She asked, her breathing coming in a bit quicker and I just smiled, leaning in and nipper her ear.

“Absolutely my love.” With that, I fucked her a little harder, making each thrust inside made her moan out. I felt my orgasm coming up again, her own orgasm over taking her at she moaned out.

“Ohhh” She pushed her rear towards me, her walls clamping down on my cock, the tightness was incredible, almost unbearable. I just put my hands on her flanks allowing me more force to pull back with, and then thrust back inside, bottoming out each time inside her vagina. She was completely basking in pleasure, her forehooves were pushing the blanket around, her body wracked in pleasure as I continued to pound her poor little pussy. “Oh Nick, I'm.... I'm cumming again!” I was amazed as she came again, her vagina clamping down hard and her hooves shot around my neck.

It was about to happen, my cock throbbed, preparing to shoot my load. I was going to pull out of her, but she nipped my ear. “I... I'm gonna shoot Twi!” She breathed deeply, panting in my ear and whispered the thing I wanted to hear.

“Inside, squirt your seed inside me, please.” That was all I could take, having her beg for it made me ready to explode and I fucked her with abandon, the air filled with my grunts, her squeals and the wet slapping of our privates. I shivered and buried myself deep inside her and then kissed her deeply. I drove my tongue inside her mouth, my cock twitching deep inside her and I felt it. I moaned in her mouth as my hot sticky load shot up inside her.

She melted under me, I guess the feeling of my seed filling her completely sent her over the edge again. I was super surprised that she could cum so many times, but then again, she was a pony. It only lasted about ten seconds, but it was the best ten seconds of my life. I collapsed against Twilight, both our sweaty bodies pressing together. We both panted, my head just over her shoulder, both of us panting to regain our breath.

“Twilight...” Was all I could muster, my length still buried inside her, my warm seed and her own juices seeping around it and out of her. She had her forelegs wrapped around my back, hugging me as we both came down from our highs.

After a couple minutes, I pulled back, staring into her eyes and she yawned and whispered. “I love you...” I smiled at her, rolling her on top of me and put the blanket over top both of us. We laid there for a long time, the warmth of our bodies and the fireplace was amazing, her soft fur felt nice on my skin as I slowly drifted off to sleep, the last words I heard, made me smile.

“I love you too...” She spoke softly, gently moving her hips, my length was still buried inside her and I felt her walls give me a good night squeeze before I fell asleep.

The Prequel

Author's Note

Here is the Prequel I promised you. It took about three hours of writing to completely finish the chapter. Anways, I strived to capture Twilight's character, and I think I did a pretty good job. There will be a "legit" Chapter two later, but I just wanted to post this for now.

This is a Prequel to the first chapter, hope you enjoy!

The Prequel

I sighed, my hooves were tucked underneath myself as I levitated the book in front of my eyes, quickly reading line after line as I took it all and stored the information away inside my brain. The library was quiet, it was a beautiful Sunday morning, most ponies spent the day outside so the library was more quiet then ever, the only sounds were the faint sound of my magic, and the page turning. “Hey Twi!” I tensed, my heart skipping a beat as I heard his voice, quickly stuffing the book under my pillow and I took another laying next to me and opened it up and faked reading as I heard him climb the stairs. “There you are! What have I told you about staying inside for a day, it's not good for ya egghead.” He smirked, that smile always made the butterflies in my stomach go wild.

“Well it's rude to interrupt a lady trying to read Nick.” I retorted with a smile on my muzzle, putting the book down onto the bed as he came closer, trying to keep my cool. He then shrugged his shoulders, holding his arms up a little and tried not to grin himself.

“Well excuuuse me, princess.” I smirked and rolled my eyes, his humour was something I really liked about him. He then looked at the book that I laid next to me. “The Complete History on Equesrian Weather?” I felt my cheeks flare and I mentally facehoofed. Nice choice Twilight. “Going to help Rainbow Dash and the weather team?” He asked and I lit up, a prefect lie forming.

“Yes! I am going to try and help Rainbow plan the weather for next year.” I gave him my most convincing smile and he returned it, before narrowing his eyes at my teeth.

“You have something in your teeth Twi.” I froze, hopping off the bed and ran to the mirror I had beside my dresser. I barred my teeth, looking around for anything in my teeth, before my fear turned into a little bit of anger. There was nothing in my teeth, the snickering coming from Nick pointed to the conclusion that he was lying. I felt my face fluster, gritting my teeth and I took a deep breath.

“Jerk!” I spun around and he bent down as I walked over to him, my anger quickly dissipating as he smiled at me, his arms out and he tilted his head.

“Sorry Twi, it's just fun to tease you sometimes. Will a hug make up for it?” I felt my heart skip a beat, my head moving on instinct as I nodded and came closer to him, putting my left foreleg over his right shoulder, and my right forehoof under his left and I stood on my hindlegs. He put his arms over both my own shoulders and ran down my back, making sure to steer clear of my wings. Usually he would make a fist with one hand and cover it with the other, but this time he let both hands open, gently rubbing his fingers into my lower back. I felt weak for a second before I regained my composure, this was a welcome change to the usual hugs he gave me.

I nuzzled into his neck, lost in the moment before my eyes snapped open and I pushed away from him, his hands leaving me. “Well I should get back to studying the weather patterns. How about we get dinner later?” I looked at him and he smiled, my heart melting as he ran his fingers through his hair and nodded.

“Sure, sounds good. I'll be round later to get you?” I resisted the urge to let out a squee, and just nodded slowly as he took his leave. A couple seconds after the door closed I started hopping up and down.

“Yes yes yes yes yes!” I was so excited, but I knew I had to look up more about what I needed. So I got back into my bed, my horn lighting up and the book came out from under my pillow, my eyes going over the title. How to Court a Stallion. I opened it back to the page I left off on. “If a stallion is interested, he will give off specific signs, some of which are listed here.” I looked down at the little list and read them off. “He may tease you occasionally. He might make excuses to be close to you. He might stare at you more. He may threaten others males who try and court you, and show his dominance.” I felt my heart pick up in speed as I thought of that situation.

I imagined myself at the Gala, Prince Blueblood was standing next to me, hitting on me. His hoof reaching towards my face, his own getting closer to my own and I felt scared. When all of a sudden, Nick pulled him back, yelling something at him before Blueblood retorted and Nick hit him, right in the snout and looked at me. I felt the same feeling as he dropped to his knees before he leaned forward, locking lips with me passionately kissing me, but his lips tasted like paper...

I opened my eyes, Spike was staring at me as my lips were locked to the page, his look was one of questioning as he walked back down the stairs. “I will leave you two alone.” I pulled back, licking my dry lips and felt so embarrassed.

“Spike! I was just... That never happened ok!?” I was nervous, hoping to Celestia he didn't tell anyone I was making out with a book.

“Sure, whatever.” I took a deep breath, my face was burning hot and I put the book down, I needed a break. I decided to get a shower before he came and picked me up, so I could look my best for him. I bit my lip as I made my way to the bathroom.

“But he said before he wasn't interested in ponies.” I said to myself. Yea but ideas can change Twilight, and that might of been directed at Rarity. My brain argued with me. “Yea but...” No buts. You see the way he looks at you, he spends most of his time around you. Now you get in there and look your best for him. I lowered my head a little. “Yes ma'am...” I turned on the water, the steam soon filling the room and I got inside, closing the glass door to the shower behind me. I stepped under the hot water, closing my eyes as it wet my mane and my face. I stood on my hind legs, letting the water cascade down my whole body when I went off a little into dream world.

I felt his hands touch my sides, my body relaxing in his touch as he moved them over my sides, before rubbing my back. He nipped my ear with his soft lips, his thumbs pressing into my lower back. He was gentle but firm, kneading his hands into my muscles, feint mewling noises coming from my mouth as I shivered in his touch. He then ran his fingers over my wings, both shooting open at his touch. “Sweet Celestia... I love you Nick... I love you so much.” I pushed back to him, but felt nothing, his touch leaving me and my eyes shot open in alarm. I looked over my shoulder and my heart sank. Nothing was there besides the detachable water head spraying hot water onto my wings where his hands 'were'. I felt sad, I yearned for his touch, he made me feel amazing, even being close to him was almost enough to melt in pure bliss.

I felt a warmth bloom in my lower body, my eyes closing again as I tried to imagine his hands move lower on me, rubbing my thighs as he teased me, his delicate fingertips touching my slick fur, nearing closer and closer to my most sacred area. My legs spread open for him, my breathing getting a bit shallower, his breath was on my neck as he whispered into my ear, telling me everything was alright. Just as he was about to touch me where I have never been touched before, a knock at the door startled me, the shower head still spewing hot water out, but it was in between my legs now. “Twilight, just wanted to tell you I'm going to Rarity's.” Spike... I growled a bit in frustration, just a couple more minutes and I would of been fine.

“Ok Spike.” I said flatly, putting my forehooves back onto the tiled floor of the shower. I felt my loin ache, I wasn't in heat, that was in Spring. I have never been so turned on by anypony before. I sighed, I needed him. “Would a spell work?” I asked myself as I started to soap up myself. Twilight, earn his love the true way. “But I want him so badly, he makes me feel like a princess.” I know, but you don't need a guilty conscience Twilight, and if he truly loves you, it will be all the better if you get him fair and square. Now get out there and get him! I smiled as I washed the soap out of my hair and off my body. “Yea!” I felt amazing, I will tell him how I feel, I just know he will want me! I turned the shower off, levitating a towel over to me and I dried myself off, making sure all my primaries were in place, and none of my feathers were out of place. Once everything was one hundred percent ok, I left the bathroom, my head held high when I noticed somepony across the library, deep into a book. Once he looked up, I debated about going back into the bathroom.

“Have a nice shower Twi?” I felt that feeling come back inside me, my new found confidence went down the drain as he stood up. Nick... I love you. My mind said but the words didn't come out, just a slurring mess. “What?” He cocked his head to the side and I blushed.

“It was good.” He smiled and I looked at his clothes. He defiantly showered before coming here, he smelled like I imagined he would, it was a little hard to explain but it was manly and almost intoxicating. He wore a pair of black jeans, with white shoes. He also wore a black undershirt and a nice white over shirt, half way buttoned up. And I daresay, he looked sexy. I bit my lip and trembled a little as I looked him over.

“I didn't know what to wear, so I just put these on.” He noticed I was staring at him and I snapped back to reality and shook my head.

“No no no. You look good.” I smiled and noticed he faintly blushed, scratching the back of his head as he usually did when he was embarrassed of nervous. I trotted up to him, my eyes scanning his entire body for other signs of body language. His nostrils flared, most likely smelling me, his blush deepening and he turned and motioned for me to follow.

“Shall we?” I nodded and we left the library and set off. The sun was down a bit, leading me to guess it was around five pm. We walked for a couple minutes before he spoke again. “I got us a reservation at a very nice place, want to guess where it is?” He glanced down at me and I didn't even try and shrugged my shoulders as best as I could. “Well let's just say, I think you will be very surprised.” His smiled made my stomach flutter and we turned the corner and my jaw dropped.

“Nick.. You didn't...” He rested his hand on my shoulder, before he chuckled.

“Yup, a table for two at the Little Slice of Canterlot.” I stood as still as a statute, not knowing how to react. Nick got us a table at arguably the best restaurant in all of Equestira. “Well, are we going to stand here, or are we going inside?” I shook my head, trying to get my brain back and focus.

“Yea, let's go.” I started walking towards the entrance with Nick by my side the entire time. Once we reached the main doors, he opened them for me, my cheeks getting a tad warmer as I entered and took a look around. It was quiet, the tables were spread more so then any other restaurant I ever went to, and frankly it reminded me of my fillyhood. Once he was beside me, the mare that I assumed was a waiter frowned as we walked up.

“I'm sorry sir, but we are booked full right now.” Nick just smiled and put his hand around my neck a little.

“I actuality have a reservation under Nick Stotes.” She then looked down before flushing red and looked back at us with a sheepish smile.

“Oh, but of course. I must apologize for my behaviour Mr. Stotes, right this way.” The mare picked up two menus in her magic and we followed her as she walked to our right. “And your table, I will be around in five minutes or so to take your order.” Our table was a small booth on the far most corner of the restaurant.

“Thank you, could you get us a bottle of Chteau La Mondotte Saint-Emilion, if you would please.” Nick said, almost stunning the waitress before she nodded and trotted towards the kitchen. “Your seat.” He motioned for me to sit down and I smiled, putting my hoof in his hand as I sat down. Once I was seated, he sat across from me and I brought the menu up just enough so I could steal a peak at him if I wanted to, and I did want to. “Order anything you like, tonight is on me.” He put his menu down, leaning back a little and I felt my cheeks flush.

“Nick, I'm a princess, I can pa-.” He leaned forward, putting his finger on my lips. I so desperately wanted to kiss it, perhaps give it a little taste but he pulled back before I could say anything.

“Nonsense, I want to thank you for everything you have done for me, as well as being the first friend I had in Equestria.” This news sent sad chills through me. Friend... I then remembered back to when we met. With only the clothes on his back and no where else to go, I was quick to take him in. I never thought I would develop feelings for him.

“Thank you.” He returned my smile and I looked down at the menu again, looking for something that appealed to me. I quickly found what I wanted and put the menu down just as the waiter started coming over.

“Have you decided what you would like to order?” She asked as she set the bottle of wine as well as two wine glasses onto the table. We both nodded and Nick spoke first.

“First off, a couple Caesar salads for an appetizer, and I would like the tortellini pasta.” He then looked over at me and I smiled.

“And I would like the Al Forno Conchiglie with Five Cheeses please.” The waiter jotted down my order and smiled before trotting off towards the kitchen. I turned back to see Nick taking the cork out, before he poured us both a half glass of wine, then he replaced the cork back into the bottle to keep air out.

“Here you go.” He said as he offered me my glass, my horn lit up and I took it from his grasp. “To our friendship.” He put his glass forward for a toast, and my heart sank to the depths. Friendship. I kept back tears as I lightly clinked my glass against his before taking a small gulp of wine and he did the same. It was such a divine taste as it cascaded down my throat once I swallowed. A warmth blooming through my upper body made me sigh and relax a little.

The rest of the night went extremely well, the dishes were delicious, but not very filling. But just being in the company of Nick, on a 'date', was good enough for me. Once we finished, he paid the bill and we began the walk home. It was dark, more so then it should of been as the clouds obscured the light from the sunset as they started to roll in. We walked home in silence, my heart screaming inside me to tell him how I felt, but I couldn't bring myself to tell him at all. Once we arrived at the door step, he bent down and hugged me. “Thank you for tonight Nick, it was wonderful.” He then pulled back, looking as though he was going to kiss me. In that lingering moment my hopes were dashed as he stood back up, the weather starting to take a turn for the worst.

“I better get home, I will see you later Twilight.” And with that, he hopped down and took off jogging towards his house, the wind picked up and the words burst forth from my mouth.

“I love you!” But it was too late, he was gone off in the distance, the rain starting to come down as I sat there on my doorstep, watching Nick disappear into the evening darkness. I felt a tear run down my cheek as I sniffed, trying to hold it in. “I... Love... You...” I said between shudders and I clenched my eyes shut as I started to cry a little. After about a half hour I opened my eyes and stepped inside to the quiet library. I walked to the kitchen and made myself a hot chocolate. I had the best night of my life, but the worst end to one ever. Once I was at my bed, I noticed the book from earlier. I laid down, the mug floating next to me as I started to read again.

After a couple hours, that nagging voice in my head came back. Twilight... I am disappointed in you, you let him go without saying anything? “But what was I to say?” I then read the next line, before stopping. I re read it aloud to myself, to make sure I read it right. “If a mare presents a stallion with a flower that is the same colour as her coat, it is a sign that she loves him and want's to either be his mare, or be in his herd, depending....” I dropped the book, putting the mug down on the bedside table before I galloped down the stairs and outside, looking to the left of the stairs.

I noticed a single purple flower, blowing in the breeze.

Burned Down

Here is the next "proper" chapter. Did some basic editing by myself, so if you spot any major mistakes, feel free to point them out to me so I can fix them. I might try and get an editor, but I like how things go now, but plans could change. Anyways, hope you enjoyed!

Burned Down

I felt a small mass shift atop me, a weird pleasureful feeling in my groin area, my arms wrapped around something moving, and soft. I struggled to open my eyes, my body was a little sore from... The memories of last night came flooding back as I saw her own purple eyes. They were wide open, a faint blush on her face as she looked at me kind of sleepily. “You... You stayed...” She smiled and leaned in to kiss me.

Twilight... My long time crush, turned lover... I leaned forward myself, allowing our lips to contact mutuality. Her lips had a faint taste of salt, along with her own unique taste. We held the kiss for a minute or so, before she laid back down, her hips shifting and I felt a squeeze around my manhood. I rocked my hips, promoting her to sigh, her vagina was not too slick, so without some extra help, I wasn't getting my member out of her anytime soon, so I just continued to rock my hips gently, letting little pleasureful tingles to shoot across my body. “Of course Twilight, I couldn't leave my mar-...” I stopped myself. Her ear twitched, her blush getting a bit deeper.

“Marefriend? You want me to be your marefriend?” She spoke with excitement, with a hint of nervousness, like a filly talking to a colt she had a crush on. I just hummed a 'yes', in my throat, her soft coat felt nice against my skin and she tried to snuggle closer into me. “I never had my own special somepony before.” I just smiled, a warm happy feeling coming up through me as we cuddled, the morning sun coming just below our necks, making the experience much better.

After a half hour maybe, I moved a little, Twilight looking up at me and smiled. “Mind if I get a shower?” She shook her head and sat up, her body now in the light and I noticed how jetlagged she looked. Not saying anything against her, but we both had a rough night. “And I think you could use one too.” She pushed with her hindlegs, my soft member finally slipping out of her, my groin felt gross, and I assumed hers did as well.

“Well it was definitely worth it Nick.” She gave me a sly smile and I just grinned as she hopped down and stretched herself out. I put my feet on the floor and grabbed my boxers and headed towards the bathroom. Twilight eyed my body, her gaze not really lingering on anything for too long, just getting a nice look.

I grinned and looked down at the ogling alicorn. “See something you like Twilight?” She instantly flushed red, her eyes going to look at the far wall as she followed me towards the bathroom.

“Hey, Nick...” I paused to looked at the purple alicorn, her gaze still set onto the wall. “I was wondering, if I could join you.” She smiled, looking up at me and I just raised my eyebrow, making her blush and start coming up with more. “W- well, you can wash my back better then I can.” She looked at my fingers and I just smiled, moving out of the way and let her inside the bathroom.

“You just want to get a free back rub.” I gently squeezed her side and her muscles twitched under my hand. She spread her right wing and slapped me on the behind.

“You bet, and you're going to give me one.” With that, she walked into the bathroom, leaving me to stand there in the doorway. As she turned the water on and got the shower nice and hot, I couldn't take my eyes off her. Not on her rump, but her whole body, remembering back to the day I really saw her as something more then just a friend...

It was a warm summer day, about five months ago. I was still living in the library at the time, trying to get settled. I was just getting used to living here when, one day it all came crashing down on me. My past life coming back to me. All my memories of my family, friends and everything else came on me suddenly. I locked myself in my room for almost two days, until Twilight broke the door down, her angry expression changed to one of shock and concern. I couldn't look at her, I was ashamed at what I did to myself.

My left forearm was almost covered in cuts, blood stained on my arm and hand, some fresh cuts were still leaking crimson blood down my arm, and a pocket knife was at my throat, tears running down my face. I was moments from ending it all, but I just couldn't, looking into her eyes made me drop the small knife and I buried my face into my hands. She came over and held me, shushing me over and over again, her hoof running down the back of my head as I clutched to her and cried for a couple hours. She then sent Spike to get Fluttershy, opting not to take me to the hospital at my request. When Fluttershy arrived, she turned white as she saw what I did to myself, my tears now coming from how ashamed I was at myself.

After wrapping my arm up and after I calmed down, I tried to fall asleep, but Twilight carried me in her magic to her own bed and I slept beside her. I couldn't sleep, my eyes going over to Twilight, new feeling coming up in me. She saved me... She cares about me... I'm sorry Twilight for what I did. I then rolled over and draped my arm around her body, her back pressed into my chest. I felt so good, her scent filling my nose, and I was so relaxed that I quickly fell asleep.

When morning came, I awoke first, cuddling with Twilight, a smile spread across my face. She stirred, her forehooves tucking over my arm and she snuggled back into me. We both laid there in the morning, just enjoying being next to each other when I slowly rubbed my hand over her belly. She leaned her head and nuzzled my cheek before she slowly opened her eyes before gasping loudly and falling off the bed. Let's just say, in the awkward conversation moments afterwards, I had to lie, saying I moved in my sleep and was very sorry. And, to my dismay, she accepted it, and we never slept in the same bed again.

But here she was now, standing here, all mine. My right hand ran over my left arm, some of the cuts turned into scars. “I love you Twilight...” I whispered to myself, her ears twitching a little and she turned and tilted her head.

“Did you say something?” She asked, a small smile coming over me and I walked over to her, getting on my knees and I hugged her, her warm fur felt nice on my bare skin.

“I said, I love you Twilight. Never forget that.” She took a moment before returning the hug, a deep breath came from her and she whispered into my ear.

“I know, and I love you too Nick.” I smiled, my chin resting on her shoulder. A single question burned deep inside me, and she had the same one as she said it. “How long?” Two simple words, the answer was already in my heart.

“Since that night Twilight, after I almost ended it all.” She tensed up a little, nuzzling her face closer to me. “What about you?” I barely had the words out of my mouth before she answered.

“When I first laid eyes on you. At first, I shrugged the feelings off, but there was always something there.” She then gave me a sweet smile. “But enough about the past, lets get a shower.” Twilight then let go, and I stood up and motioned for her to get into the shower. She did just that, stepping into the glass walled shower, the steamy water soon drenched her mane and face.

I stepped in beside her, taking the detachable shower head and directed the water over her back and wings. She had her eyes closed as I rinsed her down, before doing the same to myself. As I did that, her horn flared up, grabbing a bottle of coat cleaner and she gave it to me, a small smile on her face, her eyes big as she cutely look up at me. I just grinned and took the bottle, replacing the shower head to its rightful place, away from her. She stood up, putting her forehooves onto the wall and she stood up as best she could. I put some coat cleaner on my hands and put them to her back.

She lightly jumped when my hands touched her, her muscles were twitching under me, her tail swishing back and forth as I continued to work the soap into her coat. I smiled, my fingers pushing into her back and sides, her wings twitching before I ran a single digit up between them. She stifled the cutest yelp, her wings spreading wide before I pushed my hands into her back.

I moved both hands, one to a wing a started rubbing my thumbs over them. Her mouth was open, her cheeks were flushed deep red and her eyes were closed. She was panting lightly, a sense of excitement came over me. I leaned towards her head and nipped the top of her ear before I traced it with my tongue. She pushed her body back against mine, to which I moved my hands to her front and worked the soap in there. She leaned her head back onto my shoulder, her breathing was a little heavy as my hands went over her chest and to her belly.

“Nick...” She trailed off, whispering not really to me, but just whispering to no one. “Nick I love you so much...” I smiled, she was lost in her own little world and I dipped my hands down and felt her small teats. Now I have seen bigger, not that I was looking, ponies walk around naked all the time anyways, but she had a decent size ones. Her tongue came out and licked my ear lobe, her tail pressed flat against my chest, flicking back an forth as her haunches pushed back towards me.

Twilight was in heaven, she kept her body pressed to mine, my manhood was starting to react from her soft moans as I moved my hands back to her wings, pushing away from her a little. A scent soon caught my nose, at first, it was hardly noticeable over the smell of the soap, but soon it over powered it and I knew it was her. I washed the soap off my hands, before I trailed down her back, going towards her flanks. “Are you turned on Twi?” She let out a muffled whimper, and a small nod. I just grinned as my hands made their way to her round plot. “You naughty filly.” As I gripped her plot, she quivered under me, a small smile coming over me.

“Well I can't help it when I have a hunk like you, hovering over me.” She nuzzled my neck, my own cheeks flaring up and I felt my heart skip a beat.

“You mean that?” I asked her, my hands going back to her lower back, my thumbs pressing into her muscles.

“Mmm hmm. You are very attractive Nick, but I didn't fall in love with you for just your good looks.” I stopped, looking into her lavender eyes. “You are a sweet, caring guy.” She then smiled. “But words can't really describe you in full Nick...” She bit her lip and looked deep into my eyes. “I'm glad you came to Equestria...” She then kissed me, not very hard, but it was full of passion. I got lost in the moment and wrapped my hands around her midsection and returned her kiss.

After a couple minutes, I broke it and smiled and moved away from her. “Alright, now I need to get cle-.” I was cut off as Twilight put her hoof on my lips, her horn lighting up and she smiled a little.

“Leave it to your princess Nick.” And with that, I immediately got doused with water, the shower head moving to coat my entire body in the warm liquid. She then brought some body wash and started to work it in with her magic, what would of taken me minutes, she did in a couple seconds and soon I was covered in soap, from the neck down.

“Wow, efficient Twi.” She then washed my body off and at the same time, put shampoo in my hair and started to work it in. I closed my eyes, not wanting to get any soap in them, I know how that feels... As soon as she washed my body completely off, she washed my hair out.

“Hold still!” She said as I clenched my eyes tight, moving my hands to my hair to try and get the soap out faster. Once I was done, she turned the water off and stepped out, hoofing me over a towel. I dried my face, then my hair was next as I opened my eyes and looked around. Twilight was already working on drying her coat off and I did the same, only with my own body.

“That feels better, I haven't had a nice hot shower in a while....” I trailed off, remembering my house and... The storm... “Twilight, I need to go.” She looked over at me as I got dressed, a brush in her magic as she brushed her mane and tail at the same time.

“What do you mean?” I put my shoes on, looking her in the eyes.

“My house... I need to see if it's...” I got cut off by a knock at the door.

“Hello? Anypony home?” I recognized the voice, it was none other then Applejack... My heart sank and I left the bathroom and she spotted me as she walked inside. “Hey, Nick... Got a minute?” I breathed a bit deeper and swallowed, my throat felt tight as I walked down the stairs. Once I reached the bottom, she hugged me tightly, her earth pony strength apparent as it kinda hurt a bit. “Ah'm glad to see ya here.” She then pulled back and look up at me.

“What's wrong Applejack?” She closed her eyes and sighed.

“Sugarcube... Ah... Ah don't know how to say this but...” My heart skipped a beat and I shook my head.

“No... Please don't...” She looked me right in the eye and nodded. “My house...” It couldn't be real, I backed up a couple steps and shook my head. “E- Enough playing around Applejack, come on now.” She took another deep breath.

“Ah'm sorry Sugarcube, but it's gone. Ah'm just glad you're ok. When I saw the charred remains of it, I was worried about ya. There wasn't much left either.” I pushed past her, and ran at the door. “Where ya goin?” I didn't answer as I opened the door and left the library.

It didn't take too long to reach the spot where the remains of my house stood. I was shocked, it was burnt, and practicality torn down. I moved into the charred building, finding the location of my bed. It was mostly still there, not much of a bed anymore, but I wasn't looking for that. I reached underneath and pulled out my backpack, my heart sinking as I looked at the condition of it.

It was burnt, but I ripped what was left open and looked inside, for the one thing that I had left from my home world that meant something to me. It was a picture of me and my family. I pulled out the charred picture, tears welling up in my eyes as I looked at it. I couldn't even tell what the picture was of anymore, it was warped and half melted. I dropped it and closed my eyes tight as my shoulders started to heave a little.

“Nick!” I barely registered Twilight's voice as I lost the last thing I had to remember home with, aside from my memories. “Nick?” She was closer, her hooves coming over the wooden floor, or what was left of it and she sat beside me, putting her hoof on my shoulder. We sat there in silence for a couple minutes, aside from my sniffles. “I'm here for you Nick.” She said softly, breaking the silence and I practicality threw myself at her. I hugged her tightly as her hooves went around my shoulder as I buried my head in her chest.

We sat like that for a couple minutes when I calmed down, taking a deep breath. “I'm sorry Twilight... You shouldn't of seen me like that...” She rubbed her right forehoof over my back and nuzzled my head.

“It was a little odd for how old...” She stopped, my heart skipping a beat. “I... I don't think I even know how old you are.” She pushed me back a little, looking me in the eye. “I always thought you were twenty four or so. How old are you?” I gulped and avoided eye contact.

“Sixmhmh.” I mumbled and she tilted her head, putting her hoof on my chin and made me look at her.

“I won't be mad if your a couple years younger then me, just tell me.” She smiled and I took a deep breath.

“I'm sixteen.” Her eyes went wide, her mouth open in a small gasp. Her head shaking to the side a little before she smiled and put her hoof on my shoulder.

“I don't think I heard you correctly, you say you're sixteen?” I nodded, her eyes getting smaller, almost pin sized and she repeated it again. “Sixteen....” I bit my lip, before I put my hand on her shoulder.

“Twilight? Are you ok?” She blinked, her eyes returning to normal and she started to sweat a little, her shocked expression turned to one of mild anger and she hissed at me.

“You're only sixteen? Nick, I'm eight years older then you! You're a minor, and I'm an adult... And we... We....” Her left eye started to twitch a little. “I had sex... With a minor...” Her breathing picked up, a little as she started to have a little panic attack. I put my right hand on her cheek, calming her down as she looked at me.

“Twilight, nopony else knows my age. Besides, it's not like I care.” She licked her lips nervously. “Twilight, listen to me. You had no problem when you thought I was much older. Besides Twilight, I love you, and nopony, not even Princess Celestia can forbid me otherwise.” Her eyes got a little wider at my last statement. As I looked into her eyes, a question burned deep inside me. “You... Still love me, right Twilight?” I was a little scared, that this revelation might change her mind.

She blinked a couple times before she leaned closer. “Of course I still love you Nick. I'm sorry for over reacting.” She closed her eyes in guilt and I just leaned in and kissed her on the lips, a nice feeling flaring up in my chest.

“Woah nelly!” My eyes shot open, as did Twilight's, our lips still locked as we looked over at Applejack. “Well, well, well.” We broke the kiss, both me and Twilight were equally flustered. “It's bout time you two got together.” Me and Twilight stared at her and said the same thing.

“What?” Applejack giggled, putting one hoof to her lips in a failed attempt to stifle it.

“You two have been beatin 'round the bush for far too long. All of us knew you two were perfect for each other, but you were both too darn shy to actuality admit it.” She grinned and me and Twilight just flustered a little more, glancing over at the other. Applejack's grin then fainted. “But it's a shame what happened to your house... We can build you another if y'all want.” I pondered it for a moment before I glanced at Twilight, she was smiling, but I could see it in her eyes what she wanted.

“Actuality, I think I will be staying with Twilight for a while.” My eyes then scanned the empty room, before I spied a burnt piece of wood, with metal stands laying on it. I got up and walked over, nudging the remains of my guitar with my foot. “Well, that sucks...” I took a deep breath, that was my most prized possession, besides that photo of course.

Twilight walked up beside me, her horn flaring up as the remnants did as well. And before my very eyes, the charred remains turned back into the guitar, looking better then I have ever seen it. “Ahh, there.” Twilight hovered the newly fixed guitar into my hand.

I was kinda dumbfounded. Magic was still something I couldn't really wrap my mind around, but I didn't care at the moment as I put my free arm around Twilight. “Thank you... Thank you so much Twilight.” She blushed but nuzzled my left side all the same.

“It was nothing, just a simple spell.” I closed my eyes for a second, just letting everything sink in, my stomach growling, bringing me out of my thoughts.

“Man... I'm famished, how about we get some food?” I looked down at Twilight and she smiled.

“Sure!” I smirked and stood up, walking over to my bed again, bending down to pick up the picture before I stuffed it into my sweater pocket. I then moved the bunt backpack aside, a small, but heavy door was right underneath. I opened the latch and opened the little compartment. I reached in and picked up my savings... All one hundred bits. I smiled, although it was a small amount, it was all I had left. I tied the bag to my belt, before I closed the door again and walked back over to Twilight and Applejack, both mares idly talking.

“-lately, Big Mac an me have been bustin our hides gettin through this season.” Applejack then sighed. “I dunno if we're ganna make it Twi, Apple Bloom has been helpin all she can, but she needs to get through school and have a life, she is only a filly.” I noticed Twilight was deep in thought, my left hand going to my bag of bits... When an idea came up.

“Applejack?” Both mares looked at me, a little smile coming over Applejack's muzzle.

“Don't fret none Sugarcube, ah just over exaggerated everythin...” She then mumbled under her breath while looking towards the ground. “Maybe I should ask Braeburn for some help....” I then bent down to look at her on her own level.

“I can lend a hand for as long as you need Applejack.” Her eyes snapped back to me, her mouth opened but nothing came out.

Twilight then smiled, looking over at the shocked look on Applejack's face. Applejack blinked before she shook the shock off. “Are ya sure Sugarcube? Ah told ya last time you didn't have to work for me.” I just smiled and touched my bit bag.

“I want to. I might need the money, and you can use the help I assume.” I grinned and she smiled, her green eyes twinkling a little.

“Thanks bucko. Ah know me and Big Mac could really use the help.” I stood up, taking a deep breath as I noticed the sun was still coming up over the horizon.

“Well, it's about time to start now right?” Applejack looked at me like I had two heads, as did Twilight.

“Umm.. what?” Applejack said, lifting her left forehoof off the ground.

“We should be working soon, am I right? I know it's been a while, but since I came here, I gotten a lot more physically fit. So let's start.” Applejack chuckled and put her hoof on my leg.

“You want to start now? Well, ah cant' say no.” She then fidgeted with her hat, getting it comfortable on her head before she walked towards the barn. I then looked over at Twilight, bending down to her and I hugged her.

“I will see you later.” She put one foreleg around me, nuzzling her cheek into my neck.

“Ok, take care.” She then pulled back. “And don't over work yourself.” I smiled and nodded before she kissed me on the cheek before she trotted off. I stood up, staring at the purple alicorn as her horn flared and with a pop, she teleported.

“Alright lover boy, come on now.” I shook my head, getting back to the task at hand. I turned back to Applejack and followed her as we walked across part of the orchard. We walked in silence, my acoustic guitar strap was slung over my shoulder as we walked, both of us in silence.

“So... How is everything anyways?” I asked, trying to break the silence when Applejack sighed.

“Not so good partner. Me and Big Mac have been working sunrise to sunset everyday, only taking Sunday as a day to recuperate for the next week. Apple Bloom helps when she can, but she needs to get good grades in school, and have a life. I could never work her too hard, she's my little sis...” I nodded, putting my hand on her shoulder.

“I know Applejack... You have a lot to worry about.” I knew her parents were gone, having never seen them before and seeing all the duties Applejack had. “I will help you in anyway I can, I assure you.” I then paused once we reached the barn, putting my guitar against the wall as Applejack got a bunch of bushels. I picked up a bunch of them.

“You remember what to do right?” She asked and I nodded. I would go out, placing two bushels under each tree and once I was done, go back and dump them, repeating the process until we were done.

“Yea, I do.” I then walked towards the door as Apple Bloom came out of the house. “And if you ever need someone to talk to, I can lend an ear.” And with that, I walked off, leaving Applejack to stand there, looking at me as I walked off into the orchard while she took Apple Bloom to school.

I set down the last bushel, walking back over to where I put the first two, and found both full. I picked up the shoulder bar that I could hang the bushels onto so I could carry both back to the barn. I hooked them both on, straining slightly under the weight but I managed just fine.

We both worked for a couple hours, only catching glimpses of each other, barely any words were said aside from her saying where to place the next ones, and me acknowledging it. Soon, the sun was above us and as I picked up another pair of bushels, I noticed Applejack walking towards the barn, glancing back at me. “Lunch will be ready soon Nick, just place them in the barn and wait there.” I nodded in response and did as I was asked.

The bushels made a small sound when they dropped to the ground, my back and shoulders were a little strained as I stretched. I then walked over to my guitar, sitting atop a bale of hay and started to play around as I liked to do when I was lost in thought. I wonder how AJ's doing... I sighed, remembering the look on her face when she told Twilight she might not make it this season. I couldn't let that happen, not to any friend of mine as long as there was something I could do.

A knock at the barn door, snapped me out of my thoughts to see Applejack with a tray, a couple sandwiches on it and a couple apples as well. “Hey...” She said, walking in and I put my guitar down, getting off the bale and I pulled another one right beside it, letting her put the tray on one side of the bale I was sitting on.

I picked up one sandwich, and she picked up hers and I inspected it before I took a bite. Thankfully, she remembered I couldn't digest grass, at least I wouldn't try. So mine was lettuce, tomato, mayo and pickles. Better then eating grass and daises. I took a bite, and it was really good. As I chewed, Applejack spoke very quietly. “N- Nick? Would y'all mind if we talked?” I looked over at her and swallowed what I had in my mouth.

“Of course not, go ahead.” She smiled, downing her whole sandwich in a couple more bites and taking a drink of water before she spoke.

“Ah just need somepony to listen, and since you offered.” She took a deep breath. “Ah won't be able to pay you right away. Listen, the farm in in trouble, and at the rate we were going, we would have to sell off a huge amount of land to Filthy Rich, and as much as ah hate to admit, ah don't like him. Besides...” She looked out the window close to us and sighed. “This farm has been in mah family for generations, back when Granny Smith was mah age.”

I just listened to the orange farmmare, letting her continue. “It's been tough. Apple Bloom is right around the age where she learns who she's supposed ta be. Being the last to get a cutie mark is tough, but ah know she will come out on top...” She trailed off, leaving a couple moment's of silence. “She asked about ma and pa the other night.” The air was thick, it seemed hard to draw in a breath. “She asked what happened to em...” Applejack then buried her face in her hooves as she broke down. “Ah can't tell her... Not yet. She's only a filly, ahm kinda glad she don't remember.”

I was kinda shocked, Applejack was never like this. I just got down and wrapped my arms around her, trying to comfort a friend. “It was horrible... The fire Nick... The fire... It burned into mah memories. Ah still remember their screams Nick... Almost every night I dream about it.” She took a couple minutes to regain her composure, taking a shaky breath and she continues. “Ahm scared...” These words hit me deep down, Applejack was one of the bravest ponies around, even facing Nightmare Moon for Celestias sake. “Ah don't think ah can raise Apple Bloom right ya know? She needs a loving mother and a caring father.” I thought about it for a moment, my right hand caressing her shoulder a little.

“Applejack, you are all family. Apple Bloom, aside from having a cutie mark is one of the happiest fillies I have ever seen!” Applejack sniffed, looking over at me. “You, Big Mac and Granny Smith have made her life content. What more could she ask for? The best sister and brother in the world, and a, albeit sometimes loony, but lovable grandmother.” Applejack stopped and looked at me.

“Y- You mean that?” I nodded and smiled, making her do the same.

“Of course.” I then frowned. “I know it's hard losing your parents at a young age, but Apples stick together right? No matter what happens, you will have each other, even in memories.” Applejack let this sink in and I continued. “It will be hard to tell her what happened. I'm not even sure how she will react, but she does deserve to know, just try and leave out any details that a filly should never hear.” I kept on holding her, I knew how important it is to have a friend you can lean on. “Besides, she has you and Big Mac, you two will always be there for her, even acting like parent figures for her, much more then sister and brother from what I seen.”

Applejack hugged me, her hat falling off in the process, but she didn't seem to care, her strength was amazing for how small she was. “Thanks Sugarcube, ah... Ahm glad ah have a friend like you.” I just smiled, my hands moving over her upper back before we broke the hug.

“It was nothing Applejack, but I think that should be enough for one day. I'll be around before sunrise tomorrow ok?” Applejack nodded and I stood up, picking up my apple from lunch and my guitar, putting the strap over my shoulder and I took a bite of the apple.

We both walked out to the front of the barn. “Well, I'll see ya tomorrow Nick. And thanks again.” I looked down at the orange earth pony and smiled before I headed back home.

It didn't take me that long to get home, but when I walked up the front steps, my heart started to pump adrenaline as I was still a little nervous about dating Twilight. I opened the door and a voice came into my ears. “-terrible! I would gladly make him some new ones.” As I walked in, both Twilight and Rarity looked over at me. “Hello darling, I heard what happened.” Rarity frowned. “And I am so terribly sorry that such a misfortune befell you. Listen, tomorrow morning I will have a couple sets of clothes for you to wear, and will make some more later on.” I smiled before walking over to both mares.

“Thank you Rarity, although I don't have many bits, I can still try and give you something.” Rarity then grinned and flicked her hoof down.

“Oh, I'm sure I can figure something out.” She said, that little seductive grin still on her face and I flushed, as did Twilight. But Twilight seemed ready to retort but I managed before her.

“Actuality, I'm taken.” Rarity went wide eyed before gasping, a small flare of anger flicking across her eyes.

“Oh please do tell! I was beginning to wonder if you would ever have a special somepony.” I smiled and sat down beside Twilight.

“How about I show you instead?” I smirked, knowing full well this would be the one way to get her off my back. Twilight flushed and fidgeted a little when Rarity smiled.

“But of course.” I then wrapped my arm around Twilight before I leaned down and kissed her deeply. I always knew Rarity had a small thing for me, but I think it was the fact of how endowed I was.

Anyways, as I passionately kissed my Twilight, our lips moving against the other, I heard a gasp come from Rarity. When I pulled back, Twilight seemed to be in a daze, my eyes going over to the white unicorn. She was blushing, her mouth lightly open and her tongue snaked out to lick her lips.

“My, my, my...” She breathed, her eyes set on Twilight as she blinked a couple times to regain her senses. She swallowed, her cheeks still a little red. “So this is the dashing gentlecolt who stole your heart Twilight? I would of never of guessed...” Then under her breath she muttered something that was unintelligible.

“Yea, sorry Rarity. But I actuality had my eye on her for a while.” Rarity flushed even more, looking around the room a little.

“Really? Well... That seems why you... Never mind that, congratulations you two!” She faked a smile and I could tell as she cleared her throat and stood up. “I had better get back to the boutique, Nick, would you be a dear and accompany me? I need your measurements, seeing how much you filled out.” I shrugged and nodded, standing up and we both walked towards the door.

“I'll be back later, ok Twi?” Twilight nodded and smiled. “Love ya.” I returned her smile and her own got wider.

“I love you too, I'll cook supper for you.” And with that, she went towards the kitchen and me and Rarity went out the door.

We started walking towards the boutique, in relative silence aside from some small talk about my old house and where I would be staying. Once we reached her shop, she quickly ushered me inside and closed the door behind me. “Alright darling, if you would be so kind as to strip for me.” I knew what she meant and removed all my clothes beside my boxers. Trying to keep some dignity. She was quick, levitating several measuring tapes around me, getting all my measurements down quickly. “So, how long have you and Twilight been together?” She asked, I assume to make small talk.

“Not even twenty four hours, but we both liked each other for months.” I blushed and resisted the urge to rub my face. “But we were both too nervous to admit it.” Rarity giggled, before putting her hoof up to stifle it.

“That's an understatement. Twilight would sometimes go on about some stallion that caught her eye, but always flustered when we suggested she go talk to him about it. Saying something along the lines of, 'but he's different then the rest.' I never knew what it mean until now.” She then got a little closer. “But something different is always good now an again, hmm?” She smiled and I frowned.

“Rarity, I'm not stupid.” She blushed a little and took a step back.

“Why, I never said you were darling! Quite the contrary, you are really intelligent, and not too bad on the eyes, I might add.” She looked me up and down, her eyes lingering a little too much on my crotch.

I stepped down, moving to my discarded clothes. “Rarity, I know what you're doing. And the answer is no.” She took a step back, her eyes darting to the door and she gulped.

“B- But I am the most sophisticated mare in all of Ponyville! Stallions would do anything to get the chance to let alone date me!” I sighed, I seen this coming from a mile away. Ever since she measured me... Naked I might add, she has been almost drooling over me. The was she stares, flicks her tail, and those bedroom eyes . It was almost too much to resist.

“Rarity, I am flattered that you feel so highly of me, but I'm with Twilight now.” Rarity stood there, with a look that said 'yea, and your point?' “Rarity, I am with... Twilight... Does that mean nothing to you?” I asked and she smiled.

“But of course. Are you busy Friday night?” I facepalmed, this fucking mare was pissing me off.

“You are fucking stupid sometimes Rarity. I love Twilight. You are a great friend, nothing more.” Rarity looked at me with wide eyes, before she looked pissed.

“I understand that Nick, that is why I am asking you on a date, to perhaps get closer.” I was about to just say fuck it and leave, but she gasped and facehoofed. “Oh my gosh, I am most terrible sorry.” I grinned, finally getting through that think skull of hers. “You must not be familiar with courting customs here hmm?” I felt my heart skip a beat, remembering back to that conversation me and Twilight had. “I am so sorry, that's why my behaviour makes no sense to you.” I raised an eyebrow before she continued, getting closer. “You see, there aren't many stallions around. As you could of probably could tell. So, in order for there to not be as many lonely mares, almost every stallion has a herd. Mostly just a couple mares in it, nothing too serious. So that is why I am courting you. I wish to be part of your herd.”

It was then silent, the clock on the wall slowly ticking by the seconds as I processed what she said. She, wanted to have sex with me. She wanted to have sex with me, while I was still with Twilight... And this is normal. “Rarity...” I looked down at the white seamstress. “I- I dunno.” She just smiled and put her hoof on my leg, tugging at the clothes in my hands and I bent down.

“Take your time, I know this is out of your comfort zone, but it's just the way things are her in Equestira.” She smiled and leaned up, kissing me on the cheek. She pulled back, my cheeks flaring up and she giggled. “I always wanted to know how your skin felt on my lips, thank you.” She whispered and got back onto all fours, my hand going up to the spot she kissed.

“I uh... I should get going...” I quickly dressed myself and was soon at the door.

“Wait... Can you please give my idea a thought. Please?” I stopped, my hand on the door knob. “Please Nick?” I glanced back at the unicorn, a small smile crossing my face.

“I will. Good night Rarity.” And with that, I left as she waved me off. I closed the door behind me, before turning around and almost bumping into Twilight. I flushed. How long was she there for? “Uhh... Hi Twilight.” I said, biting my lower lip.

Twilight just smiled, her eyes watering up a little and she threw her forelegs around my waist, hugging me for all she was worth. “Thank you.” Was all she said. I bent down and picked her up, letting her four limb hug me as I walked back to the library. “Mmm, this is great...” She whispered as she continued to hug me as I walked.

“So, how long were you there?” I asked, her cheek nuzzling my neck a little.

“Right when you freaked out at her.” I smiled, as did she. “But...” I dreaded the but. “She does have a point you know.” I then reached up and scratched behind her ear, making her body almost go limp. “Oh sweet Celestia...” I continued to scratch the alicorn, who was practicality melting under my fingers. As we neared the library, she kissed my neck. “I'm glad I have you, but Rarity makes a point Nick. I- I wouldn't mind if she could have you a night a week or something.” I blushed, walking into the library and I set Twilight down.

“I dunno Twi, it kinda goes against what I was raised to believe in.” I sighed. “I'll think about it, but enough of that. Is supper done? I'm kinda hungry.” I put my hand over my belly and Twilight giggle.

“Alright then, come on, let's eat.” Twilight smiled and we both sat down, what seemed to be rice, some hay for her, and... I was speechless at what was on my plate. A fish, cooked seemingly to perfeciton.

“Twi... Did you really?” I looked at her and she gave me a funny smile.

“Yea, I know you like meat, and fish is the closest thing I could get you. It was easy to cook, but I had to place a spell on the air, it smells pretty gross. Cooking it was easy, just looking over in the Griffin section to find a cook book.” I was speechless. Twilight cooked me a fish, and it looked perfect.

“Twilight... Thank you so much.” I felt my mouth almost watering at the sight. “I haven't had fish in so long.” Twilight then giggled, taking a spoonful of rice into her mouth.

“Well don't plan on me making more, that was almost too much.” She smiled sweetly and I nodded.

“I... I don't even know what to say Twi, but thank you.” I then cut a piece off and stuffed it into my mouth. It had to be the best fish I ever had, cooked and spiced to perfection. It melted in my mouth, my body shivering as my taste buds tingled.

“So I assume it's good huh?” Twilight's voice broke through to me, making my eyes open wide as I swallowed the fish in my mouth.

“No, it's not good.... It's fantastic!” She giggled and took another spoonful of rice and brought it to her mouth.

We ate in relative silence, and when we both finished, I picked up the dishes and started to do them. Once I was finished with them, it was dark out, the major light coming from Twilight's room. As I ascended the stairs, my heart beat faster as I neared the top. Once I reached it, I noticed Twilight laying on the bed, her legs tucked in to her body, a book being held in front of her muzzle and she let out a cute, little yawn. She looked over at me and smiled, closing the book and placed it onto bedside table.

“Ready for bed?” I yawned myself and nodded while walking towards the bed. I noticed Spike's bed was missing. “I moved him into the guest room so we could be alone.” Twilight smiled and I did as well.

“Well them, let's get into bed.” I pulled back the covers and Twilight was quick to scurry under them, her head poking out the top as I removed my shirt, pants, socks and shoes. With everything off, besides my boxers, I sat down, laying back as Twilight touched my side.

“Nick, could we... Cuddle?” I looked over at the alicorn, giving me that same smile that I couldn't resist even if I wanted to, and I rolled over, draping my arm around her midsection and tucked my hand underneath her. She wiggled her back as close to me as she could before letting out a little sigh of content and tucked her forelegs over my arm, making sure I wouldn't let go. “Good night Nick.” She kissed my cheek as best she could from her position and I smiled, placing one behind her left ear.

“Good night princess...” I laid my head behind hers, her soft coat once again felt nice against my chest, her mane still smelled amazing like last night, and even months ago. I hugged her a little tighter before I took a deep breath, letting my tired body relax and sleep to over take me.

Working the Farm

Author's Note

Hello again! Here's the next chapter, and a little over 10,000 words. It also has a clop scene involving Twilight, shower, and a little back door action. *Eyebrow wiggle* I hope you guys (and girls maybe?) enjoy it, I know I enjoyed writing this chapter. Ending was a little meh to me, it was late at night and I had barely any sleep when I wrote it, but whatever.

But anyways, I will be working on a short one off Coco Pommel x Sweetie Belle clop fic that someone suggested before. I already have how it will happen, just have to write it.

Also, if anyone would like to pre read any new chapters for me, point out some mistakes or things I should change, just PM me and we will try and figure something out. (Still trying to figure how this site works fully)

Working the Farm

As I slowly awoke, I felt something move in my grasp. I was warm, and whatever was pressed against, my chest was warm as well. I wrapped my arm tighter around it, and it stopped moving. “Good morning Nick.” I smiled. Twilight... I could wake up like this everyday. I let out a small yawn, slowly opening my eyes to see Twilight looking back at me.

“Good morning beautiful.” I said in a quiet, raspy voice, a small blush spreading across her cheeks. I was on my back and she was on top of me, her right hoof over my left shoulder, her left hoof went over my other side and her cheek was resting on my shoulder. I leaned in and pecked her on the tip of the nose, electing a small giggle from the alicorn. “I'm going to love it here, waking up everyday next to you.” I said again in a quite voice.

Twilight smiled, nuzzling into my shoulder and neck, her horn lightly brushed the side of my head. “Mmm, me too.” I closed my eyes and gently rubbed her lower back with my left hand. After a couple minutes or so, when I was more awake, I remembered the promise I made to Applejack.

“Sorry to cut this short Twi, but I promised Applejack I would be at the farm by sunrise.” Twilight sighed, wiggling a little and let out a cute noise while shaking her head to the side a little. I smiled and, using my right arm I pushed myself up, but Twilight clung to me, refusing to let go. I just stood up and she grabbed harder.

“Noooo.” She said in a cute little tired voice, much like a child would say and I sighed, putting my left arm around her back and picked up the only clothes I owned with my right hand, then walked down the stairs into the main room of the library. “Nooo go back to bed, please?” Twilight said, moving her hoof off my shoulder and pointed behind me, lightly flicking her hoof as if trying to reach the bed.

I just chuckled and shook my head. “No can do Twilight, I have a promise to keep, besides, Applejack needs me.” Twilight sighed and hugged me tightly while sighing.

“Ahh, fine...” I smiled and walked over to the small sitting/laying area. Once there, I pulled Twilight and put her down on it before I sat down myself. Twilight sat there, looking a little grumpy. “You owe me mister.” Was all she said and I glanced over at her, noticing a small blush on her cheeks.

I put my pants on, then my socks and went for the shirt, putting it over my upper body, making sure I put it on the right way. “There we go.” I picked up my left shoe, slipping it on, then put on my right shoe. “Well, I'll see you when I get home Twi.” I grabbed my sweater then I looked over at her and she just smiled at me.

“Have a good day.” I leaned over and gave her a little kiss on the lips before I stood up and headed for the door. I opened it and stepped out into the dark, early morning. It was a little cold so I put my sweater on, zipping it up to around my sternum, then pulled the sleeves halfway up my arms before I set out towards Sweet Apple Acres.

The walk was nice and quiet, the sun just started coming up over the trees as I first stepped foot onto the property. As I neared the barn, I noticed Applejack step out of the house, her eyes going over to me and she smiled, waving a hoof in my direction. “Howdy Nick!” I smiled and waved back, coming up closer towards the barn as she headed there herself. “Again, thank ya so much for comin along.” She opened the door and I followed her inside.

“It's not a problem Applejack, anything to help a friend in need out, heck, I know you would of done the same for me.” As my eyes adjusted to the little light that was inside the barn, I noticed a cart with a bunch of bushel for apples, stacked onto the back of it. It seemed to be modified slightly, instead of fitting over say Applejack's back, it looked like it could go over my shoulders. “I'll be pulling thins huh?”

I walked over and examined the modifications, there even seemed to be pads where the wooden parts would go over my shoulders. “Yea, I had Big Mac modify one of our carts...”

“And ah helped too!” A little fillies voice spoke up behind us, making me turn around to see Applejack's little sister, Apple bloom. I smiled and bent down as the little filly galloped over to me.

“Hey Apple Bloom, long time no see!” She then jumped at me, knocking me over onto my back. “Oof! Man, are you getting bigger? You've grown a lot since I last saw ya.” I smiled and she giggled before hopping off me. “Trying to get your cutie mark in cart modifications?” I asked and Apple Bloom sighed and nodded, hanging her head a little low.

“Yea, ah didn't get it though...” The little yellow filly pouted and I smiled, putting a hand on her shoulder.

“Don't worry, you'll get it one day. I know it.” I smiled as the filly looked up at me and smiled a little herself.

“Y'all mean it?” I nodded, noticing Big Mac enter the barn behind Apple Bloom.

“Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake, in my eye.” I kept eye contact with her as I did the moments that accompanied a Pinkie Promise. Apple Bloom smiled and hugged me as tightly as she could.

“Not wantin ta ruin the moment, but ah need to get y'all ta school li'l sis.” Big Macs deep voice broke Apple Bloom out of her little trance and she looked back at her brother, before glancing up at me.

“Uh, Mister Nick? Do you think y'all could take me to school?” She asked in the cutest little voice, her pupils getting huge, her lower lip quivered as she begged. I still don't understand how they can do that...

I smiled and nodded. “But of course, as long as Applejack and Big Mac say it's ok.” I looked at the two older ponies, both glancing at the other before smiling.

“Sure sugarcube, just head on back here when you're done.” Apple Bloom gasped and started to lightly hop on top of my chest.

“Yes! Ah'll get my stuff!” With that, the little yellow filly hopped off me and ran over to grab her saddlebags. I got to my feet, brushing off the small amount of dirt that I got on the back of me and shot a smile at Applejack.

“I'll be back as soon as I'm done.” Applejack returned my smile, nudging her head towards Apple Bloom.

“Come on Mister Nick!” I chuckled and jogged towards the door where the small filly was lightly hopping in excitement. Once I reached the door, she started to gallop away and I felt a nice, happy feeling as I started after her.

I could of easily out run her, she was really tiny compared to me, but I didn't run, only a slow jog and I kept up with her. Taking a glance around, we were getting closer to town, the school house was across from us on the other side of town so we would be sure to bump into... I looked right, noticing the Carousel Boutique and out stepped Sweetie Belle and... Rarity. Crap, I forgot all about that... I gave her proposal a little thought, and Twilight agreed to it too.

“Hiya Sweetie Belle!” Apple Bloom galloped over to her fellow classmate and friend. The white filly's eyes got a little wider, a grin spreading across her face.

“Hey Apple Bloom” Her voice cracked a little and she raced towards us, closing the gap between the two friends even quicker. “Have you seen Scootaloo?” She asked when they were a couple feet from each other, both slowing to a halt.

A small buzzing noise then started to fill my ears, and I knew only one source for the sound. I turned my head and smirked as the orange, purple and blue blob came over the horizon. Scootaloo came quick, her little wings flapping hard behind her, the scooters wheels rolling over the smoothed dirt quickly. Once she seen us, she crouched down a little more and speed up, most likely trying to impress all of us.

She came quick, jumping with the scooter and then spun the deck around before landing back on top of it. After that trick, she jumped off before landing back onto her scooter. I was shocked a little, that was impressive to say the least, considering how easily it would be to mess it up. She then skidded to a halt right in front of us and leaned on her handlebars. “Sup?” She grinned and I did the same.

“You got some guts girl.” I crossed my arms. “But jumping off the scooter?” Scootaloos ears then dropped a little and I smirked. “How about doing a flip too?” Scootaloo perked up at that.

“Wow, that would be harder! Doing a mid air flip!” Her grin got wider as she pondered the possibilities of doing a front flip.

“Ahem, if you're done giving her advice to hurt herself, it's almost time for school.” Rarity reminded us and I resisted the urge to face palm.

“Da-- rn.” I cut myself off from giving the three fillies any words that they would repeat. I then looked down at Apple Bloom. “I gotta get you to school then head back to the farm.” At these words, Rarity jumped a little as if an idea came to her.

“Oh, you're working on the farm?” She looked at my current clothes and a frown went over her face. “Oh no, those won't do at all!” Her eyes then met mine. “If you take Sweetie to school and stop back here, I can have a set of work clothes for you.”

I opened my mouth to protest, and say what I had was fine but I kept it shut and nodded. “Sure, I can do that.” Rarity then closed her eyes and tilted her head to the side.

“Splendid! I shall get to work right away! Taa Taa~” She waved a forehoof before entering the Boutique. I then turned my attention back to the three fillies.

“Well, let's get going.” We all then set out for the Schoolhouse, the three fillies talking about their latest plans to get their cutie marks. It was quite amusing to listen to the adventures these three get up to on a daily basis, some of their antics were pretty tame, but there would sometimes be the odd one where they went a little overboard.

Once such one was how they tried water skiing. They built a small boat and got Scootaloo to propel it with her wings like she does with her scooter. Let's say it ended before it started, Scootaloo didn't have enough power to bring the other two up to enough speed, so when the ropes around the others went tight, Sweetie Belle got flung into the shallow water, Apple Bloom as an earth pony is much heavier then Scootaloo so the boat went up and over. They stayed away from anything like that from then on out.

Soon enough, we arrived at the Schoolhouse, other fillies, colts, some with parents and some just playing or talking to others. “Alright then, there you go. I'll catch you girls later.” The three of them waved me off and I did the same, my mind set on heading back to Rarity's place.

After about ten more minutes of walking, my eyes fell onto the Boutique. I sighed as I approached the door and knocked. “Come in!” I opened the door and stepped inside, making sure to duck as I came in. The door was about a foot and a half too short, thankfully most ponies had tall ceilings. “Ah, there you are darling! I finished your clothes for work, here!” I looked over at Rarity as she levitated me over the garments she made.

A red plaid shirt, blue jeans? What next? Cowboy boots and a- I got cut off from my thoughts as boots were place on top of what I had, and a hat was placed on my head.. “Rarity, don't you think this is a litt-”

She cut me off and smiled, moving a changing screen in front of me. “Nonsense! You will very much look the part of a cowpo-er... Cow... Uhh...” She trailed off and I sighed.

“Cowboy. Fine, I'll wear them.” I started to remove my old clothes and quickly got dresses into the new duds she made me. It felt right to be in clothes like these again as I pulled the boots on, they even had spurs on the back, each making a little noise as I stepped in them. The blue jeans were a little tighter then what I was used to, I usually dressed in a little more baggy clothing, but it fit all the same. I even had a length of rope attached to my side with a little clip. I rolled the sleeves up near my elbows and put the Stetson atop my head. It was a white hat, with the edges slightly curved up, with a two little dips on the very top. I tightened the black belt I had on, admiring myself in the mirror. “Now all I need is a sprig of wheat.” I smirked at myself and ran my fingers on my left hand across the brim of my hat.

“Oh wow...” I turned around to see a blushing Rarity. “I knew it was going to look good, but not like that.” I just smiled and put my thumbs in the sides of my belt.

“Well little lady, I'm gonna have to thank ya'll for these here duds.” I tipped my hat and spoke in my old accent. Rarity trembled a little and bit her lower lip.

“Oh wow, you speak just like Applejack does.” I just nodded and stuck my hands in my pockets leaving the thumbs out.

“Well lassy, I was raised in a little ol country town back home.” I then stifled a chuckle before I cleared my throat. “Man, I haven't spoke in that accent in a while. But anyways, thanks Rarity.” Rarity smiled and I bent down, putting my hand on her shoulder. “I thought about what you said last night.” Rarity tensed up a little as I continued. “And, I should be free Friday night.” I added a smile to the end, her beautiful azure eyes lit up and she hugged me.

“Thank you so much, but you must get back to work now, I will talk to you later ok?” I broke the hug and nodded before I headed out the door leaving with a wave. As I crossed town, I got quite a couple of looks and stares, murmuring and whispered filled my ears.

I then passed a aquamarine unicorn who was looking me over. “Mornin.” I said, tipping my hat downwards a little. Curse you brain... Her gamboge eyes snapped to my eyes and her mouth opened a little. Her mane was a light cyan colour with white highlights, and her cutie mark was a lyre.

“M-morning...” She managed to squeak out, and she stopped walking as I passed her.

That was odd... Oh well, I better get back to the farm and fast or Applejack 'll have my hide... Dammit brain! I soon found myself at the opening of the farm again and was quick to get onto the property. “Can I help you mister?...” I heard Applejack say from my left and I turned around, making her jaw drop a little.

“Howdy Applejack.” I smirked. Whatever, roll with it. Her emerald green eyes looked at me from my boots to my hat before she smiled.

“Woo whee! That is some nice getup y'all got there!” She trotted closer, getting a better look at my clothes. “Well, anyways, me and Mac got the fields, but there are some things that need a fixin, here.” She trotted over towards the barn and I followed her, the spurs on my boots lightly clicking as I walked. Once inside, she was already writing out a list and soon finished it before passing it to me. “Just do everythin on the list ok? That should keep you busy for quite a while.”

I nodded and looked at the somewhat hard to read words. “Alright then, I'll get started I suppose.” Applejack smile and nodded, trotting out of the barn, giving me a slight look out of the corner of her eye as she left.

I smiled to myself a little, looking at the first thing on the list. “Arrange the tools. Easy.” I walked over to a corner of the barn and found the tool rack. It was a little bit of a mess, they usually didn't use anything over here but when they did, it was important.

First thing I did was remove my hat and hang it on a small nail before I set to work. I then removed all the tools off the wall and the table and out from the drawers. I then arranged them and began to put them back, pairing screwdrivers together, making sure to keep star head and flat head separate. Then I put up all the bigger tools, saws, hatchets and a big axe, most likely meant for Big Mac to use.

Once I put all the tools back, I burnt like an hour or so, picking the list up again and I put my hat back onto my head. “Alright, what's next?” I looked down and read the next thing I had to do. “Fix broken axle on cart.” I took a deep breath and put the list into my pocket before I went outside to inspect what needed to be done.

Right outside, I noticed that there was a cart with the right wheel laying on the ground next to it, a half an axle laying next to it. I lifted the cart and took a look underneath. “Easy enough.” I then headed back into the barn to get some tools.

It took me about two hours to get the new axle onto the cart and made sure everything was greased. Once I was satisfied, I wiped the sweat off my forehead, the hat I had on really helped with blocking the brunt of the sun. I then took the list out and read the next thing. “Get Rainbow out of “her” tree.” I smirked and looked over the fields. If she didn't change trees, it should be... ah ha! I quickly noticed the blue mare against the brown, red and green of the trees.

I walked over to the tree the rainbow maned pegaus was currently napping in. She had a small pillow behind her head, her left hindhoof was hanging a little and it twitched occasionally as she snored quietly through her nose. Seeing how I was much bigger then most ponies, the branch was almost at head level. I reached up and pinched the end of her nose shut. I felt her try and breathe before she snorted a little then opened her mouth and woke up, moving a hoof to her nose. “H- hey?!” She said in a sleepy voice.

“Come on Rainbow, time to get out of the tree.” I paused for a second, letting her wake up a little more. “You're lucky I didn't yank you out of that tree, I did consider it.” I smiled and she looked at me, her eyes looking over my clothes and she smiled a sleepy smile.

“Hey, if a stud like you is going to wake me up, then so be it.” I rolled my eyes as she sleepily flirted with me. I then grabbed her hindhoof and pulled making her yelp and wrap her forelegs around the tree. “Hey! I was kidding!” I just chuckled at Rainbow and stood back a little.

“Sorry, couldn't resist Rainbow. Besides, I'm kinda taken already.” This revelation made her stop trying to scramble back onto the branch and she snapped her head towards me.

“What?!” She looked me in the eye to see if I was lying, and I just smiled and nodded while rubbing the back of my head a little.

“Yea, me and Twilight are together.” Rainbow looked.... Well, let's just say, I could almost see the crushing in her eyes.

“Wha? A- are you serious?” I winced slightly before nodding, she just blinked a couple times, her magenta eyes getting wider and wider. “What?....” She said softly, almost in a squeaky voice.

I sighed. “I'm sorry Rainbow, I don't have time to explain my relationships right now, I have work to do, so could you please go nap somewhere else?” Rainbow closed her eyes and wiped her face a little.

“Y-yea. I'll get going.” And with that, she grabbed her pillow before zooming off, leaving a small rainbow trail in her wake. I felt a sinking feeling in my chest.

“Man I sure can fuck things up.” I sighed again and shook my head, getting back to the task at hand. I took the list out of my pocket. “Clean the wind-.”

“CATTLE STAMPEDE!!!” Applejack's voice rang across the orchard and I looked up, Applejack and her dog, Winona were running aside a huge group of cattle. She looked over and noticed me, moving her head in a way that said 'help me!'

I dropped the list and took off, I pushed my hat down snugly onto my head, the metal spurs spinning slightly as I moved, running at an angle so I would be at the front when I met up with the mob. “Applejack!? What the hell?” I said as soon as I reached the other side of the cattle.

“Ah don't know! They must of gotten spooked again!” She then glanced forward before smiling. “And y'all have a fence to fix now.” I wanted to groan but I just focused on running, not wanting to get run over by a bunch of cows.

“So what's the plan?” I asked Applejack as Ponyville came up over the horizon. “We ain't got much time left.” I glanced over at the orange farmpony.

“Winona! You make sure none get lose ok?” Her dog barked in acknowledgement. My feet started to hurt, these boots weren’t broken in yet so running like this was starting to hurt. “Alright, Ah need you to cross over here, make sure none make it into town while I move them away.”

“Got it.” I wasn't sure if I could run much faster and keep up, if I went all out, I would of exhausted myself to much. But thankfully there was only one cow in the front and I started to come into her side before I jumped over the small cow, almost losing my balance as I hit down again. “Jesus! There!”

Applejack got up beside me. “Alrighty now, ah'm gonna try and move them off.” We were getting ever closer, I could start to make out ponies in the small crowd that stopped to look at us.

“Get out the way!!” I yelled at the top of my lungs, and the ponies moved out of the way just in case something went wrong. “Go for it Applejack!” Applejack then rammed one over and over, and slowly but surely they all started to turn.

My heart sank, the lead cow did not turn with the rest and Applejack had to keep with the rest, so it was my job to get this one. As I tried to gain on it, I felt tired, my legs were a little numb, my lungs burned for oxygen and I knew I wouldn’t catch it. The an idea came into my head. “No you fucking don't.” I said between breaths and took the rope I had attached to my side off and, to my luck it was already in a loop. I then tied a smaller one on the other end so it could wrap around my forearm as I didn't want to let go.

Once I secured it around my arm, I wound up and started spinning the rope, slowly the cow got more ground on me, almost at the bridge and... I noticed a purple pony standing in the square, staring wide eyed at me. Twilight! I grit my teeth and threw the lasso. Time slowed as the rope wobbled in the air, slowly making it's way down, lower and lower before... I pulled, the rope was right around the cows chest and I stopped running, digging my heels into the dirt.

I was only a couple feet from the cow and we hit the bridge and I got a quick idea. I ran as hard as I could and at the apex of the bridge I jumped and.... I grunted as me and the cattle hit the ground, thankfully it didn't roll onto me, and I landed away from the cow, tumbling from the momentum but I soon rolled to a stop. “Nick?!” I opened my eyes, my breaths were quick and I noticed my hat was laying on the ground away from me. The cow shook its head before getting up and headed over to all the others, the rope already was off her.

I got rolled onto my back as hooves went to me. I felt the rope around my arm be taken off and I smiled as I see Twilight. “Howdy.” I gave her a goofy grin and she gave me a smile mixed with a frown. “You come here often little mare?” Twilight then lightly punched me in the shoulder and I let out a little chuckle. “Ow, that's a bruise.”

Twilight then gasped a little and put a hoof to her lips. “Ohmygosh, I'm sorry.” I sat up, putting my right arm behind me to help push me up.

“Ah, it's fine, I've had worse I assure you.” I felt a little sore for the tumble and this would be something I felt in the morning. I heard magic flaring up and my hat was floated over to me. I took it from the purple magic. “Thanks.” After putting the hat back atop my head, Applejack galloped over.

“You ok sugarcube? That was a nasty fall y'all had there.” I just smiled and nodded.

“Yea, I'll be a bit sore, but I should be fine.” It was then that I looked around as a dull thudding noise filled my ears. The ponies were stomping their front hooves onto the ground. “They're... Applauding?...” I asked in disbelief when Applejack smiled and nodded.

“Sure are, y'all helped save the town Nick.” I blushed and shook my head, glancing around slightly at all the mares, a couple stallions here and there mixed into the crowd.

“No, you and Winona did most of the work, I just caught one.” Twilight was sitting on my left, her right hoof wrapped around my shoulders and Applejack rubbed her face with a hoof.

“Nick, stop bein modest. If that lose cow got into Ponyville, who knows what kind of damage it could of caused.” She then swung her hoof towards the sky and I pondered what she said.

“Y- Yea, I guess you're right Applejack.” I then stood up and wiped some dirt off my pants and shirt. Once I was standing, a tan mare with grey hair trotted over to me, one I recognized as Mayor Mare. She smiled and stuck her hoof out to me and I grabbed it and shook it. She then shook Applejack's hoof.

“Nick Stotes, Applejack, on behalf of Ponyville, I would personally like to give you two our thanks. Thanks for, the second time for Applejack, saving the town for a stampede.” The tan mare then smiled and I felt my cheeks warm up from being in the centre of attention.

“It's all in a days work Mayor Mare, but I really couldn't of done it with out ya Nick.” Applejack said, looking up at me from the side. I just scratched the back of my head with my right hand.

“Shucks Applejack, it was nothing.” Applejack stifled a giggle and lightly pushed my hand.

“It was something! I never see somepony who never threw a lasso, do it like they knew what they were doin, let alone while running with a moving target!” She exclaimed and I pondered that for a moment, before I shrugged my shoulders.

“It was in the heat of the moment.” Applejack then gave me a sly grin, her eyes glancing over at Twilight. My cheeks warmed up, I knew what she was getting at. “Anyways, I have a fence to fix, so how about we get back to the farm huh?” Applejack nodded and headed towards the cattle herd on the other side of the bridge from the town square.

I turned to Twilight and bent down. “Thanks.” Was all she said, whispering it as she put her forelegs around my neck and gave me a small kiss on the cheek.

I smiled and put my own arms around her. “No problem, just dong my job.” I then broke the hug, looking into her purple eyes. “Well, I have to get back to work, I'll see you at home ok?” Twilight nodded and I stood back up before giving a little wave as I followed Applejack.

Once I crossed the bridge Applejack was waiting there for me. “Alright lover boy, let's get these her cattle back to the farm.” I nodded in agreement as Applejack started for the farm, the cattle following her.

I wonder what spooked them? I thought as I made we made our way back, Applejack on one side, I was on the other, and Winona was behind the herd, making sure none broke away. We soon made it back and while Applejack found a temporary place to put the cattle, I went and checked out the fence that housed them.

As I approached, I saw that there was one hole in the fence, but the fenced in area was not too far from the forest. This doesn’t look good, this doesn’t look good at all. As I approached the area, looking at the broken planks of wood, I had a feeling something was watching me from afar, just a nervous feeling deep down really. “Everything look ok?” I jumped a little and spun around to see Applejack walking up behind me.

I let out the breath I was holding. “Yea, I was just looking as to what could of spooked the cattle.” I then turned my attention back to the fence, looking around to see if I could find anythi-... What the hell? I picked up one of the broken planks of wood, it was cracked, but on the edge, there was a small indent on it. “Applejack, check this out.” I moved the piece near her and she eyed it.

“What in tarnation could of did tha-...” She trailed off, her eyes going up and they became like pin pricks. I felt a cold chill come over me and I slowly turned my head.

“Mother fuck-!” I pushed Applejack away and I jumped back myself as the stinger lander right where we were. I rolled to my feet. The best was a light gamboge with what seemed to be a red lions mane. It had bat like wings and a scorpion stinger for a tail. “Manticore!” I yelled out and his eyes came over to me. He let out a roar and swiped a paw in my direction.

I jumped backwards, landing on my butt. “Nick!” Applejack said and charged the Manticore. The Manticore looked to his left, just before he got a buck to the side that sent him tumbling. “Get Up!” She said and I scrambled to my feet getting a couple feet away from him.

It was then that I knew he was coming after us. A snarl and then the sounds of his feet hitting the ground. As we ran by the barn I grabbed a shovel that was leaning against it. I then turned around and swung, a loud twanging sound came, then a thud as the shovel hit the Manticore, then he hit the ground a little dazed. I then turned and ran again, but I got tripped. I turned onto my back as the Manticore's tail came back behind him, he then pounced on top of me. “Crap!”

This was now a fight for my life as I put my hands on his shoulders, trying to keep him from tearing me open like a wet paper bag. I knew it would of been in vain, as he was much stronger then I was, but I managed to push him up away from my chest, he was almost fully off me when... “Get off him ya varmint!” Applejack then kicked him right in the face, sending the feline hybrid off me. I then got to my hands and knees as Applejack took off, the Manticore was going to go for her soon and I had one idea. I took the rope off my belt and started to spin it. Thank you so much Rarity! Then as soon as he got to his feet and headed for the farmpony, I threw it.

The lasso went around the Manticore's tail and I pulled it hard, and the roar he let out was ear splitting. The beast fell down, it's tail laying on the ground and I knew we had it. It must of been a very sensitive spot, much like how other animals have sensitive tails.

I then moved quick and tied the limbs of the fallen beast, making sure he couldn't attack us again. Once I was done, I stepped back, in case he tried to use his tail. “Applejack, you ok?” I looked over to the right to see her panting, but otherwise, she looked alright.

“Yea.” She said in a shaky voice before shaking her head from side to side. “Nick, you single handedly took down a Manticore.” She said in almost disbelief. She then looked up at me, her usual smile was gone, her mouth open slightly. “Y'all saved my life.” I just smiled and shook my head.

“Come now, you got him off me, he almost ripped me open.” Applejack shook her head and I was a little confused.

“Sugarcube, you almost threw him off you, I just kicked him when his balance was over the tipping point.” I then looked back to the fallen beast, breathing heavily.

“Did I? Did... Did I really? Well, in desperation, the body can do crazy things.” Was all I could think to say when I noticed a yellow Pegasus come over the horizon. She looked around a little, but when she saw us she bolted.

“Oh my gosh! What happened?” The usual timid pegasus named Fluttershy said, more concerned with the Manticore then us.

“Hey Fluttershy, we're ok, no need to worry.” Applejack said with a small frown. “And just what the hay was that beast doin attackin us like that?!” Fluttershy winced as the farmpony raised her voice.

“Easy AJ, everything is fine now.” I then bent down to be at eye level with the butter yellow pegasus. “Right?”

Fluttershy looked down at the Manticore, and... Pet him? “Mister Manticore, why did you attack my friends?” The beast then said something that was nothing more then a couple growls and mewls. “Oh, really?” I still couldn't understand how she did it, talking to animals? And she could understand them too! “I'm sorry, but this place doesn’t belong to you, it belongs to Applejack, so if you would be so kind as to go back into the woods and find a different place to call home, that would be great.”

The Manticore nodded and she undid the rope around his legs, both me and Applejack took a step back, afraid that this would end badly. But, to our surprise, the Manticore only nuzzled Fluttershy, purred a little then took off into the forest. I opened my mouth to say something, but then closed it. Somethings are better left un-

“Now what in Equestira was that all about?” Damn Applejack. Fluttershy, who was looking where the beast entered the forest again giggled and turned around.

“He just thought he could come here and take the land as his own. I just told him no, it was yours.” Me and Applejack looked at each other before turning back to Fluttershy.

“I think that's enough for one day Applejack, I don't know how much more I can take.” I took my hat off and ran the fingers on my left hand though my hair. Applejack stifled a giggle and nodded beside me.

“Yup, ah hafta agree on that one. I'll see ya in the mornin. Night Nick. Night 'Shy.” She then turned and trotted into the house, the wooden door creaking slightly behind her as it closed.

I took a deep breath, the smell of apples, sweat, and the general outdoors filled my nostrils. “Well, I should get back to the library.” As I headed for town, Fluttershy followed me, walking on my right.

“Umm.... Nick... If you don't mind me asking... But um... Why are you going to the library?” She asked in her usual quiet voice, one that was a nice break from the norm.

I put my hands into my pockets as we continued towards Ponyville. “Well, let's just say, I'm living there from now on. That rickety old shack I lived in, is nothing more then firewood now.” Fluttershy let out a small gasp.

“Oh no, are you ok?” She asked, generally concerned about my well being. I just smiled and nodded.

“Yea, thankfully, I wasn't there at the time. I was at the library.” I felt my cheeks warm up as I remembered just what I was doing there. “I'll just come clean. Me and Twilight are together.” Fluttershy let out a small gasp. I looked down at her and she was blushing slightly.

“Wow... I had no idea....” She whispered and I raised an eyebrow. She noticed me looking at her and she meeped. “Sorry.... I... I was just never sure if that could work... Y- you know?” Fluttershy snapped her mouth shut and let out a little noise. “I-I'm so sorry! I di- didn't mean it like that!” Her legs were shaking a little as she cowered bit.

I looked down at the pegasus, then just smiled and shook my head. “It's fine Fluttershy.” I sighed. “Heck, even I wasn't sure it could work.” I thought back to that moment, the first kiss me and Twilight shared. My cheeks flushed, her words still clear to me as when she first told me she loved me. “But I now know true love is something that can't be controlled, something you can't decide on.” I smiled a little bit as we just entered Ponyville, knowing that I would soon be with her again.

“Oh wow.... That's sweet.” The timid mare gave me a small smile, a feint blush coming over her face. I just smiled a little and nodded.

“Yea, and now...” I looked up and we were at the library, my heart beat a little faster as I imagined Twilight waiting for me, jumping into my arms the moment I stepped inside. I breathed a little shallower. “I'll talk to you later Fluttershy, unless, you would like to see Twilight?” Fluttershy looked at the ground, lightly kicking it with her hoof.

“Umm, no... I'm good....” She then glanced back at the ground, a small blush coming over her face and I just smiled and waved a little.

“Well then, good night Fluttershy, sweet dreams.” She bit her lower lip a little, her body slightly shook, probably from the cool night time air.

“Good night Nick.” The then trotted off in, I assume was the direction of her cottage. I turned my attention back to the library's front door, I stepped up the front steps and slowly opened the door. It was a little dark inside, a couple lights were on inside, my eyes scanned the room looking for the purple book worm.

“Oh Nick! You're home!” I noticed Twilight sitting at a small desk, before she got up then spread her wings, knocking over a couple books in the process. She flew right for me and clung to me, her hooves gripping to my shoulders, her hindhooves wrapped around my belly as she nuzzled into my chest with her cheeks while her wings went around me, making me quite warm.

“Hey Twi, how are you?” I put my arms around the alicorn, heading more inside and away from the door. Twilight then pulled back, letting me put her down onto her hooves.

“I'm good, how about you? I missed you.” She then nuzzled my belly with her cheek. I smiled and removed my hat that I had on, before I moved away and sat down so I could take my boots off.

“Ok, as can be expected.” I let out a sigh. “Crazy day, first the cattle stampede, then a Manticore came onto the property.” Twilight did a double take, her jaw opening wide.

“What!? You're not hurt are you?” She rushed over to me, looking me over quickly and I chuckled and shook my head. “Oh thank Celestia, Applejack kicked his butt right?” I blushed and shook my head again.

“Not really, this is how it went....” After I explained it to her, she was a little shocked, stuttering a little, trying to find words.

“Wow... That's about it.” I smiled a little, Twilight was at a loss for words. “Anyways, are you hungry?” As soon as she said that, my stomach growled, I hadn’t eaten all day.

“Yea, I kinda skipped lunch.” Twilight smiled, closing her eyes and tilted her head to the side, and I noticed Spike walk down the stairs behind us.

“You guys going to make anything? I'm hungry.” The little drake put his hands onto his belly, his eyes looking at me and Twilight.

“I have some stuff on as we speak, do you think you could finish it Spike?” The purple dragon sighed and headed into the kitchen. “I'll make sure to get you a nice sapphire for your trouble Spike.” He lit up and nodded, a big grin coming over him as he put his pink little apron on and got to work. Twilight then turned to me with a seductive little smile. “Now then... You, me, shower.” She said in a quiet voice then kissed me on the lips, then on the chin and onto my neck.

I felt the fine hair there touch her lips and I made a mental note to shave that off. “Sounds like a plan beautiful.” I smirked and she hopped down, trotting towards the stairs, her rump shaking from side to side more so then it usually did but... Not that I would know....

But I was a little mesmerized by her swaying hips, and followed silently, trying hard as I could to tear my eyes from her rump. “See something you like?” She said as she hit the stairs, looking back over her shoulder at me. I blushed, looking away a little before she giggled and headed up the stairs, with me right behind her.

Twilight walked into the bathroom and I noticed couple neatly folded stacks of clothes for me on our bed. I walked over and picked up a new pair of boxers, a white t shirt and white pj's with black musical notes on it. Sweet. I smiled, taking the new clothes with me to the bathroom as I heard the water turn on.

I stepped inside the bathroom, the steam from the shower quickly filled the room and I noticed Twilight look over her shoulder, giving me a sly grin. I closed the door and locked it behind me, putting my clothes down onto the counter and I started to strip. Twilight bit her lower lip as she watched more and more skin become revealed to her praying eyes. The shirt was now off and I was about to undo my belt when she put her hoof on my hand. “Allow me.” She then fiddled with my belt in her mouth before she managed to get it off, using her magic to undo the button, she fidgeted as she was almost at her prize.

Then she took the zipper in her mouth before slowly, painfully slowly pulling down, her warm breath touching my boxers and onto my groin. Once it was down, she put her forehooves onto my hips and pulled, taking just the pants down, I was starting to think she was having fun with this. “Mmm, almost there Nick.”

She eyed my package, her hungry eyes made me want to rip those off so she could play, but she was a little tease and nuzzled her muzzle into it, taking a deep inhale of my manly scent. I closed my eyes, letting the alicorn do her thing. She then kissed my half hard member though my boxers, placing a little lick up from the tip to about half way, making it twitch. She giggled a little and took the waistband into her mouth, blood flowing south as she pulled it around my growing manhood and right down to my ankles.

She attacked, going under my cock and stuck her nose against my balls, making me tense up a little as she smelled again, letting out a small sigh and then, to my surprise, she licked my balls. She was gentle, her tongue gliding over the skin and the sensitive orbs underneath. “Twilight..” I whispered and she took one into her mouth, gently sucking and I shivered. After a second or so, she let it out of her mouth and did the same to the other before taking a step back.

My cock bobbed on it's own, waiting for attention. “Alright, shower time.” With that, she trotted into the shower and I stood there for a second before joining her. But she was turned away from me, doing her thing, leaving me to stand there. “Could you pass the shampoo?” She asked, in a very clam, nonchalant voice.

I just smirked and passed her the shampoo, letting her take it in her magic before I bent down and placed my hands on her rump. Making her jump a little then shiver under my touch. Her tail lifted out of the way, letting me look at her soaking wet marehood. She must be really turned on... I moved my hands closer, spreading her outer lips, her pink insides looked delicious, I went slowly, letting a couple breaths out onto her lips before I traced them with my tongue. “Mmm.” I moaned a little in my throat, her juices were tasty, making me want more. I heard a noise and her wings spread wide, making me smile.

Once I made my way back to where I started, I circled her clit a couple times before I took it into my mouth, making a U with my tongue, I sucked a little, wiggling my curved tongue, the tip of my piercing flicked it, making her let out a sharp cry. “Ahh!” I grinned as best I could before I released her nub and stopped for a second. Twilight wiggled her hips, trying to push back to my mouth. “Nya?” She let out the most adorable noise and I gave in, plunging my tongue deep inside her.

She was divine, her walls tightened around my tongue, trying in vain to pull it deeper as I moved back then right back where I began, tongue fucking her for about ten seconds before I pulled back. “Ready for the main show Twi?” I stood up and lined my cock head up to her pussy when she put a hoof back to me.

I looked up into her eyes, a heavy blush was on her face and she smiled. “Could we try it...” She then moved her body down, my cock went between her cheeks and I felt the warmth of her tail hole on the head of my member. “There?” She breathed, her mouth now open and I put my hands on her rump, spreading her cheeks wide, allowing me to see where I was sticking it better.

I lined it up to a T, then slowly, oh ever so slowly I pushed. Twilight mewled lightly, her body was shaking more at this point, her breathing became a little harder as her tight tunnel clamped to my manhood. “Easy Twi, relax ok?” I said quietly to her, and she nodded, her eyes were closed and I felt her muscles relax and I eased more into her. She let out a small hiss and I immediately stopped my advances, thinking I hurt her. “Are you ok?”

Her tail hole clamped a couple more times before it stopped, and I waited for a couple seconds. “Yea, I'm good now. Please continue, put it all inside me.” She said, pushing back herself and I complied, my cock sinking inside her better now and soon, I was as deep inside her as I could be. She ground her rump to my groin, biting her lower lip and I rocked my hips before I pulled out and then... “Ohh!” I pushed back inside, a small slap coming from the connection of fur and skin. I pulled out and repeated, keeping a slow rhythm.

Each time I went back in, she either moaned or let out a grunt. And each time I pulled out, I went a little further out, and the cycle repeated until I was going from balls deep, to just the tips inside. I locked my fingers into where her hindlegs were attached to her body, and pulled her to me as I fucked her. “Oh man Twi, your so hot inside.” I could feel her insides clamping down when I went all the way inside, her warmth was amazing and it urged me on more as I pounded the poor Alicorn's tail hole.

“Oh Nick, harder please, I- I'm close!” I knew she was going to go off before me and soon her insides clamped to me harder, clenching tightly around me. “Ohh....” Her front legs gave out, and she was soon face laying out on the floor, her hindlegs staying locked letting me still pleasure her through her orgasm.

I grit my teeth, the extra tightness was amazing, the warmth from her body was almost too much, but I held out, wanting to pleasure her more. I pulled out for a minute or so, letting her come down from her high. “You ok there Twilight?” I asked, as she panted hard and slowly as best she could, nodded.

“Y-Yea... Did you... Finish?” I just smiled and dipped my left hand to tease her clitoris, making the pleasure ridden pony shudder.

“No, I was going to show you how long we humans can go on for. Would you like more?” Twilight looked over her shoulder, her mouth open in amazement and nodded furiously. I smiled and pushed inside her cunny this time, her wetness coating my cock.

I didn't waste anytime, and set to an aggressive rhythm, pulling her back as I pushed forward, reaching her innermost depths. “Oh sweet Celestia...” I smiled, the pleasure I felt was only surpassed by the content feeling that I was giving Twilight all that she could ever dream of, and hopefully more. She started to push her hips back to me, her eyes closed and she barred her teeth, I took that as a signal to increase my tempo. “I-I can't hold it.... I'm cumming again, oh geez!” She flexed her hips, her juices soaking my crotch, her walls squeezing my member, trying to milk it for my cum. I pounded her harder, carrying her through orgasm and working towards my own.

“Twilight, I'm getting close....” I said under my breath, focusing on trying to hold it back, but it was proving in vain as pre practically squirted out of my cock. She didn't turn around, just pushed her hips up and I looked down at that small hole.

“Do it... Inside my ass.... Please...” She panted out and I pulled out to fulfil her wish, before pushing it back in balls deep inside her tail hole and let it go, squirting my seed deep inside her. I felt the gooey strands shoot out, going deep inside her. “Ahh, it's.... So warm....” She ground her hips to me, a small smile coming over her as my semen coated her insides. I felt it fill her up, soon coming back over my cock.

We sat there for a minute, basking in post orgasmic bliss, connected in one of the most intimate things two lovers could do. “I love you Twilight...” I said, gently pulling out of her, cum came with me and once I was fully out, the whiteness started to run down her back end. I smiled, her back end still locked in place. I sat down on the floor, the water was still going a little behind us and I pulled her onto me, her hindlegs finally letting go and she laid on my lap. She was panting a little, a silly smile on her face and her eyes were closed.

“I love you too Nick... We should get cleaned up....” She said quietly, and I chuckled, running my hands over her back, her wings laying limply on the tiled floor. I moved my left hand to her damp mane, running my fingers through it.

“Leave it to me, I'll wash you...” She cracked open an eye and smiled, placing a kiss on my belly.

It took me about twenty minutes, but soon we were both clean, Twilight even casted a spell to remove all my seed from inside her. Once we were out of the shower, I dried her off, her coat was a little fluffy, and her mane was straight and needed a brush. “Hey, you mind if I brush you?” I asked, it was something I only dreamed about before, having her in my lap as I brushed her,

Twilight blushed a little, sending my heart rate a little quicker. “Sure, that sounds great.” She smiled and I did the same, putting on my white T shirt, standing up as I looked at my new pj's. They were a perfect length, going slightly over the tops of my feet, but not enough to get caught underneath them.

We then left the bathroom and Twilight's horn flared as two brushes came over from her dresser, one for her mane, and one had a little place where I could put it over my hand. I took both from her magic and we both went down stairs into the main room. Once there, she hopped up onto the couch she had there and I sat on the other end, letting her lay in my lap.

My heart skipped a beat, she started to brush her mane, counting each stroke under her breath and I put the coat brush on my hand and put a single stroke down her spine. She shivered and stifled a gasp, but I continued, brushing her coat into the incredibly soft one I knew. She was soon finished with her mane and tail, and I finished her back. “Let me turn over...” She said and she did just that, laying on her back now so I could brush her chest and tummy.

I purposely avoided her belly, opting for her chest first, and once I was finished that, I brushed her little belly. She smiled, laying her head on my side and I cradled her neck in my left arm as my right brushed her. Brushie, brushie, brushie. I smiled myself, her little sighs of content made me happy.

“Hey! You guys done over there? Dinners done.” Spike's voice snapped us out of our little world and she rolled off me before trotting over to the kitchen, with me right behind her.

Dinner was amazing, mashed potatoes, corn, carrots (I even fed Twilight a couple when Spike wasn't watching. Man she's adorable.) And a salad with some nuts in it. Spike was the first to finish and retire to bed, while Twilight did the dishes, I decided to look around the cupboards so I could get more familiar with where everything sort of was.

It was then when I saw the little jar in the back, filled with... Sugarcubes? I then got a plan and reached inside and took a couple out of it. “Hey Twi?” I closed the cupboard and she looked at me as I held one between my index finger and thumb. Her eyes got wider as she seen what I had.

“Oh my gosh! Where did you find that?!” She ran over to me, putting her forehooves onto my thighs and trying to reach up. “Is it for me? Please?” She eyed the white cube and I smiled before nodding and she took it in her magic before popping it into her mouth and smiled while crunching the cube. “Mmm.” She closed her eyes and smiled, putting all four hooves back onto the floor. Once she was finished she opened them back up and looked at me expectantly. “Is there more for me?”

I smiled and pulled out the other one I had and she smiled a little more. “You have to work for this one.” I then put it between my lips and bent down to her, lightly biting it and she quickly locked lips with me, her tongue trying to get the cube from my grasp.

She seemed to get a little frustrated and she tried harder, the sugary cube starting to dissolve in our mouths. She then tried a new tactic, using her adorableness. She sat on her rump and put her forehooes flat on my chest, tilting her head to the side, her tongue now trying to get past the gap in my teeth to play with my own. Damn Twilight... I gave in and opened my mouth to allow her inside, but she snatched the cube with her tongue and took off, literally trotting a couple feet away where she munched the cube with her forehooves near her mouth.

“You win this time Twi.” I felt the sugar that dissolved still on my lips a little and I walked over to the alicorn. She then turned and hugged me tightly, before pulling me down into a kiss, her tongue seeking out any more sugary goodness. After a couple seconds, she broke the kiss, looking at my hands for anymore. “No more tonight.” She pouted a little and I just smiled, picking her up, cradling her in my arms. “Let's go to bed now.”

“Yea, and thank you for the Sugarcubes, I love them.” She kissed me on the cheek and then nuzzled into my shoulder, making me roll my eyes, turning off the light to the lower level then I headed up the stairs. My tired, worn, and slightly sore body made me feel like sleeping right there, but I knew it wouldn't be good in the morning.

Once I made it to the top of the stairs, I walked over to the bed, placing Twilight onto it then removed my shirt. Twilight scurried under the blanket and soon, her head popped out the top, waiting for me to get in. I pulled the blanket back on my side and climbed in, Twilight immediately shimmied over to me, playing her head on my right shoulder, her hindhoof draped over my right leg and her hoof went across my chest as well as her wing.

I ran my right arm down her back, running right in between her wings. “Twilight? What's up with the wing thing? Not that I mind, it's quite nice.” I asked her, she seemed to like doing it and I felt her cheek warm up on my skin.

“Well, according to Rainbow, it's a sign of trusting, or a sign of love. It's kind of like trying to wrap yourself around the other pony, or person, to protect them from the cold.” I smiled, that was sweet. I rolled onto my side, her wing and hoof now over my side.

“Well, we have something like that.” I then pressed my chest against hers, putting my head atop her own, making sure her horn was no where near my face, I did not want to wake up without an eye. She nuzzled into my chest with her nose and I ran my left arm around her back, while my right arm went under her head and I rested my own on my shoulder. “I love you Twilight.” I whispered then kissed her forehead and she sighed.

“I love you too...” She yawned a little before she gently gave me a couple licks on my chest. That made my heart skip a beat, I would assume that was another sign of affection. But, after four, she stopped and I soon fell asleep cuddling with my Twilight.
