A Night To Remember

Twilight continued to walk around the library and ensure that everything was all set for Rainbow’s return.  The popcorn was popped, the drinks were cold, the stories were prepped; it was all there and ready, and Twilight couldn’t help but beam at her work.  She couldn’t get too ahead of herself though, for there was still some last minute tidying to do.  For starters, Spike had sent a letter saying that he would be staying with Rarity for the night and it had been left unattended on the floor as Twilight went about attending to other things.  She gathered it up, along with a few other scattered and unimportant papers, and tossed them in the garbage can; she made sure to give herself a little cheer for each toss she made.  Then there were some things in the kitchen that had been left unattended, such as the jars of peanut butter and jelly, and the spilled popcorn and kernels.  They were dealt with promptly with a little magic, and then Twilight returned back to the main room for a little alone time.  Perhaps she could settle down with a book whilst she waited for Rainbow Dash to arrive.  Before she sat down though, Twilight shot a glance across the room and saw her reflection in the mirror.  Oh but she looked like a mess!  She must have gotten this way from all the preparation.  There was no way she could greet Rainbow Dash like this, let alone spend an entire night with her.  She ran up the stairs and headed towards her bathroom where she grabbed the brush with her magic.

Just as she was about to run it through her mane though, she heard the door downstairs open and close.  “Twilight!” she heard Rainbow Dash’s familiar voice call, “Hey Twilight, I’m here!  Where are you?”

“Darn it!” Twilight cursed under her breath and dropped the brush.  She ran back into her bedroom, but then swiftly flipped back around and went back into the bathroom to check her reflection in the mirror, unsure if she should groom herself or just leave it alone.  The idea quickly struck her that it would be something for them to do at the sleepover, so Twilight ran back into the hall and slowed herself down before she got to the stairs.  “Be right there!” she called as she turned the corner and proceeded to walk down the stairs.

“Hey Twilight,” Rainbow Dash casually greeted as Twilight came down the stairs.

“Hi Rainbow Dash,” Twilight replied and smiled as she descended the stairs.  She noticed the bag around Rainbow Dash and offered, “You can go ahead and take that upstairs if you want to, unless there’s something you need in it.  Make yourself at home,” she smiled once more and walked off towards the kitchen to fetch the popcorn.

“Sure,” Rainbow Dash said and quickly smiled in appreciation, “I’ll be right back.”  She ascended the stairs and went into Twilight’s room where she found a place at the foot of the bed to place her bag.  She turned around to leave, but not before Twilight came in on her.

“So I was thinking we could start off watching some movies,” Twilight suggested and indicated the projector setup in her room.

“Sounds good to me,” Rainbow Dash replied.

“Great!” Twilight said and went for the box that she kept the film canisters in, “What do you want to watch?” Twilight said and began to start naming off titles.

Rainbow Dash listened as each title was called, but she only recognized a few of the titles, and then there were an even fewer number that actually caught her interest.  She decided it would be best to let Twilight pick.  “It doesn’t matter to me,” Rainbow Dash said as she situated herself comfortably on the bed, positioned just right for a movie viewing, “put on what you wanna watch.”

“OK then,” Twilight said and sifted back through the titles to find one that she really liked and hoped that Rainbow would like as well.

Whilst she was sifting, and sitting down in front of the box in the process, Rainbow Dash couldn’t help but notice Twilight’s features once more.  As before, she tried to refuse herself the temptation, but was powerless to do so.  From her position on the bed, and the distance away from Twilight, Rainbow Dash was able to observe Twilight’s fine figure once more.  True, it was in an “innocent” enough way, but deep down Rainbow Dash knew that she secretly liked what she saw.

Her eyes scaled up Twilight’s body in silence, and this very much excited Rainbow Dash; she bit her bottom lip in ecstasy.  Seeing as how she was able to observe Twilight for a longer amount of time, she couldn’t help but become aroused.  She knew that it was wrong, especially in Twilight’s own house, but aside from that she seemed to have no regrets or second thoughts about it. Rainbow Dash wanted so much to touch herself, and she came close to doing so, but she didn’t dare.  She could only imagine what would happen if Twilight suddenly turned around and discovered her.  Her bodily desires got the best of her though, and she found herself moving her hoof down her body and towards the middle of her hind legs; she was a mere inches away from her sweet spot when Twilight stood up and turned around.  Luckily enough, she was able to move her hoof away and place it back down on the bed.  Had there been any questions, Rainbow Dash could have merely played it down as a simple scratch.

“How does this one sound?” Twilight said and showed the title to Rainbow Dash.  It was a noire thriller, older in black and white, and one that Rainbow Dash actually liked.

“I like that one,” Rainbow Dash commented and smiled casually at Twilight’s decision.

“Me too!” Twilight said gleefully and went to ascend the stairs to the loft so that she could place the film in the projector.  As she stepped aside though, the ends of her tail swung around and collided with Rainbow’s face.  It was obvious that she didn’t feel it though, for she didn’t turn around and apologize or anything, but just continued to climb.  Rainbow Dash didn’t mind though, and as a matter of fact she was rather glad that it had happened.  Finally, she got a whiff of Twilight’s magnificent fragrance.  It was like nothing she had ever smelled before; it was a beautiful, sweet scent.  Then there was something different in that brief, gust of air.  It was a scent that Rainbow Dash was far more familiar with herself, especially around bath time; this scent had made the experience all the more fulfilling.  With that one swish of her tail, Rainbow Dash had been granted the scent of Twilight’s ecstasy; it was obvious that luscious, sexy Twilight was in heat.

An idea or two popped into Rainbow’s head, but she pushed them away quickly as Twilight came down the steps.  That was all she needed right now, arousal that would lead to either more strange behavior and questions, or worse yet, a stain on the bed sheets.  With this worrisome scenario in her head, Rainbow Dash decided it was probably best to lay down flat on her stomach instead of sit down; not only would it prevent staining, but it would be a good deterrent to masturbation, should the urge to do so arise once more of course.  “Good,” Twilight commented with a little smile as she came down the final steps, “it looks like you’ve made yourself at home.”

Rainbow Dash smiled as casually as she could back and replied, “You bet,” she chuckled, with a slight, but luckily unnoticeable shake.

“Well,” Twilight said as she grabbed the popcorn with her magic and climbed onto the bed beside Rainbow Dash, setting it between them, “the projector’s warming up and the movie should start any second now.”

“That’s good,” Rainbow Dash said as she looked ahead, trying not to take notice of Twilight any more than she had to in order to restrain herself.  It didn’t help that Twilight laid down flat on her stomach, her hind legs outstretched exactly like Rainbow Dash and their bodies making contact.

Rainbow Dash tried inconspicuously to adjust herself so that they weren’t touching, but was forced to stop when Twilight took notice of her fidgeting.  “Something wrong?” she asked and looked down between their bodies.

“Thought I felt something crawling on me,” Rainbow Dash lied and smiled innocently.

“Oh,” Twilight said, “you’ll get used to it.  You know, I think it’s these new sheets.”  She picked up a small piece of the comforter that was sticking up and shuffled it around with her hoof, “I forget what it’s made of,” she commented and continued to observe the sheets, “I don’t think our coats are as used to it, but it’s supposed to be thirty percent more efficient at warming.”  Rainbow Dash sighed under her breath once more as Twilight went into her percentages; at least she bought the story.

The movie started a few seconds later and the two of them settled down to watch the movie.  They shared the bowl of popcorn and sipped on their drinks in silence as the movie continued on.  They were quiet, partly because the movie was a good one and it was a bit difficult to follow at times, and then because there was nothing that they could think of to say.  It was Rainbow and Twilight’s first time of sleeping over with one another, so a few kinks were to be expected, though Twilight was sure that they would iron out as the night progressed on.  Rainbow Dash on the other hoof, was actually too nervous to say anything.  She worried that if she were to say something, any little thing, she might accidentally stray off and alert Twilight to her feelings.  “Wait… feelings?” Rainbow Dash muttered absentmindedly.

“Hm?” Twilight asked and looked over at Rainbow Dash.

“O…Oh, nothing,” Rainbow Dash glanced over at the movie, “I was just thinking out loud,” she stretched the truth; she hoped with every inch of her being that Twilight wouldn’t ask about what.

She caught a break though, as Twilight didn’t ask about what but merely said, “Oh,” and went back to watching the movie after she popped a few pieces of popcorn into her mouth.

Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash looked away from the movie as she went back to thinking what she had uttered.  “Feelings?” she thought silently this time.  What did that mean, and more importantly, where did it come from.  Surely it wasn’t some way of telling herself that she loved Twilight.  It troubled her deeply, and it did for some time as the movie rolled on until she eventually was able to brush it off.  “Still…” she thought and glanced over at Twilight.

Lost in her thoughts, Rainbow Dash failed to notice Twilight blowing her forelocks out of her eyes and constantly adjusting it, so she was surprised when Twilight turned towards her and asked, “Hey Rainbow Dash, will you brush my mane for me?”

“Uh… sure,” Rainbow Dash said and prepared to stand and get the brush, but Twilight stopped her and retrieved it with her magic.  She wondered why Twilight wanted her to brush her mane.  Could it be that Twilight had “feelings” for her as well?

“I was going to do it before I came downstairs but I decided it could wait,” she chuckled under her breath, “I guess it got messed up while I was getting ready.”

Her clarification both relieved and hurt Rainbow Dash.  “Oh,” she said and gave a quick smile as she sat up and got in a good position behind Twilight.  “Oh,” she repeated just a little quieter and frowned as she took the brush in her hoof; she proceeded to brush Twilight’s mane silently.  As she brushed though, she couldn’t help but notice Twilight’s fragrance return to her nostrils; she loved it even though she tried so hard to resist it.  After a few moments, the fragrance calmed Rainbow Dash so much that her frown actually turned into a gentle smile.  She had no idea that brushing Twilight’s mane could be so relaxing.  “You smell good,” she complimented as she moved around to reach Twilight’s right side, “Are you wearing something?”  Rainbow Dash blushed hard and almost dropped the brush when she realized what she had just asked.

“Oh,” Twilight replied with a smile and a blush, “Do you like it?”

Rainbow Dash heaved a mental sigh of relief; she was worried for a second there that Twilight was going to grow suspicious.  “Yeah,” Rainbow Dash replied and worked on getting a tangle out, “Yeah of course,” she said as she pulled the tangle out, “What is it?”

“It’s a little something that Spike got me for my birthday.  It’s called ‘Spring Blossom’,” Twilight replied.

“It smells nice,” Rainbow Dash complimented and went over to Twilight’s left side to resume her brushing, almost done with it all.

“Thanks,” Twilight said, her blushing returning.

“No problem,” Rainbow Dash said and resumed her brushing.  All was quiet for a few moments after that as Rainbow Dash proceeded to put the finishing touches on Twilight’s mane.  As he brushed on though, Rainbow Dash’s eyes couldn’t help but look back towards Twilight’s midsection and body.  Normally, she would have felt some level of guilt, but this time, she didn’t.  As a matter of fact, she felt rather gratified with a slight sense of curiousness.  So it was only natural that she would  say, “Twilight, can I ask you something?”

Twilight looked up at Rainbow Dash and replied, “Sure you can Rainbow Dash.  What is it?”

“I was just wondering,” came the reply, “how do you stay so beautiful?  So… in shape?” Rainbow Dash asked as she stared into Twilight’s beautiful mane and continued to brush.

Twilight blushed deeply and looked straight down at the ground.  “Oh,” she said and waved her hoof, “I’m not beautiful.  I’m certainly not fit… not like you anyway.”

“Aw, now don’t feed me that,” Rainbow Dash countered, “Twilight, you’re one of the most beautiful mares I’ve ever seen.  Don’t let anypony ever tell you any different.”

“That’s… very sweet of you to say Rainbow Dash,” Twilight said, her blush glowing even brighter.

Rainbow Dash heard her words, but she knew that Twilight still didn’t believe her.  “No, no,” she said softly and put the brush down, “I mean it,” she got back to eye-level with Twilight.

“But it’s not true,” Twilight mumbled with an embarrassed tone as she looked away.

“Yes it is,” Rainbow Dash said firmly, “Look at yourself,” she said and gently took Twilight’s head in her hooves where she then gently guided her head towards the nearby mirror.  “Now tell me,” Rainbow Dash ordered, “who is the prettier one?  Me, or you?”

“You,” Twilight simply said.

In honesty, Rainbow Dash hadn’t been expecting that, so she tried her hardest to hide her blush.  “W…wrong,” she said with an embarrassed tone.  “Don’t you see it Twilight?  I mean, look at your face compared to mine, and look at how much nicer and well-kept your mane is compared to mine, and then… there’s your body…”

“My… body?” Twilight asked as she continued to observe herself in the mirror.

“Yes,” came the reply, “your body.  See how curvy you are?  Heck, I do nothing but exercise and I still don’t look anything close to what you look like.”

“Stop it Rainbow Dash,” Twilight ordered and swatted her hoof, “you’re making me blush.  I don’t like to blush.”  Twilight had never been complimented this way before and it was getting the best of her.

“Well that’s too bad, you know, that you have to blush at the truth,” Rainbow Dash countered sweetly.  They were quiet for a few more moments as they looked in the mirror, but then Rainbow Dash beseeched, “Tell me Twilight, how do you do it?  I wanna know.”

Twilight, with a blush still on her face, looked away from the mirror and over towards Rainbow Dash.  “I… I don’t…” she tried to say, but was cut off as Rainbow Dash swiftly planted her lips on Twilight’s, made all the more surreal by the fact that the kissing scene in the movie occurred at the exact same time.  Twilight wanted to fight it, but she couldn’t, she loved it.  Rainbow Dash opened her eyes, in shock at what she was doing, but went back to it when she noticed that Twilight’s eyes were closed and she had a look of passion upon her face.  Rainbow Dash kissed Twilight one more time and then pulled her lips away; she had never been more nervous for something in her whole life.

“Twilight!  I… I…” she tried to explain herself, but Twilight hushed her and placed her hoof upon Rainbow Dash’s lips.

“I understand now,” Twilight said, “you’ve never been after a stallionfriend, you’ve been after… a marefriend.”
