Fluttershy's Cottage

We were almost home now and I could see somepony waiting out front. Fluttershy saw her, too.

"Hel-lo, anypony there," she said knocking on the door, "I'm here, where are you ponies?" The pony looked through the window.

As we approached the mare from behind, Shy said quietly, "Um Pinkie, we're behind you."

"Dah there you are," the pink mare said after turning around to face us, "I've been knocking for like...30 minutes straight."

"Why didn't you just leave and come back," I asked smiling at her.

Pinkie giggled, "Because silly, how would you know who it was if I did walk away once you opened the door...if you were here to begin with."

I just raised an eyebrow and something else had caught my attention anyway. I saw the boat parked on the side of the cottage on its trailer. Perfect.

"So what cha got in the bag Fluttershy, smells really good," the pink mare asked catching a whiff of the fresh food's aroma.

"Um this is our breakfast, Tommy and I are going on a picnic," the pegasus said, "...speaking of which I better go get a picnic blanket from inside, I'll be right back."

Fluttershy went inside to get that blanket while I checked the boat out. It was about 9 feet long and 5 feet wide. It had a smooth dark oak wood finish with 2 matching oars. There was a built in wood bench for the rower of the boat to sikt when steering the wooden vessel. It sat firmly on the matching oak wood trailer. There were also 3 lanterns; 2 on wooden poles at each of the back corners of the trailer and 1 more on a wooden pole that curved up then outwards in the front of the boat.

"This is a really nice boat, Pinkie," I said admiring it.

Pinkie bounced over to me, "Ah huh, I told you Ol' Tug would pull through," the pink party animal said happily, "...he really loves his boats. He has big ones, little ones, long ones, short ones, blue ones, green ones, red ones. He has all kinds of ones and did you know his cutie mark is a tugboat."

I shook my head no and pulled the trailer out to the front of the cottage. Pinkie jumped in. Fluttershy had stepped out and was about to say something until she saw the wooden boat, so instead she asked, "Okay I have th-ah wha...why is there a boat here?" She looked at her pink friend who was fooling around in the boat, "Pinkie did you bring this boat?"

"I sure did, Tommy wanted me to," She said popping her head up out of the boat. The yellow pegasus gave me a questioning look.

"Well ta da I wanted to surprise you," I said using my arms as if I was presenting it to her, "Me and you, we're going to head up stream and have our picnic on the boat, sound good to you."

"Um...I think so," the timid pony said not really agreeing, "...but couldn't we just have our picnic in the backyard where it's safe and close to home," she said with a big smile hoping to change my mind.

My arms fell to my side, "But..bu-but why? I thought it would have been fun going up stream," I said. What's so bad about going up stream that made Shy not want to go?

Fluttershy looked down, "Well...I suppose-" It looked like she was going to agree with me without me having to further convince her until Pinkie opened her mouth cutting her off.

"Did you say it was going to be fun, of course it's going to be fun," Pinkie excitedly said then she sat in the back of the boat on the rowers seat. "First you're going up stream entering the Everfree," she said looking forward, "then you start going faster and faster avoiding the sides so Timberwolves wouldn't get cha," Pinkie said leaning forward speaking a little bit louder, "and when you see the jagged rocks ahead you have to dodge 'em left or right," she said swaying left then right making the boat rock in the direction she leaned toward, "and soon at the same time the water starts to thrash rapidly making you bounce and lose control of your steering," the energetic mare loudly said pretending the boat made her jump up and down and side to side, "and finally the best part is at the end, surviving the waterfall, WEEE," Pinkie yelled with her arms in the air as she imagined and simulated the whole ride, "It'll be like a scary, wild, but fun ride."

"Not helping Pinkie!" I said as I saw the shocked pegasus with her mouth wide open.

"What, did I make it sound too fun," Pinkie said before seeing her friend scared, "Whoops my bad."

I kneeled down in front of the slightly quivering mare. Now knowing that it was going through the forest or mainly the terrifying ride Pinkie made it sound out to be scared little Fluttershy. Snapping my fingers in front of her face I said, "Fluttershy, hey."

She began to stutter at first but became clearer as she spoke, "I-I don't want to go," she cried out sitting on her hunches about to cover her face with her forehooves, "Please T don't make me go. Why can't we just stay here where it's safe?" The shy pegasus sat there, I wasn't sure if she was going to cry or not.

I stared at Pinkie and whispered, "Really, you had to scare her." I wasn't mad at the pink pony. I knew she didn't do it purposely.

"Sor-ry," she whispered back.

I lowered the shy mare's hooves so I can look into her glossy eyes, "Shy you know I wouldn't purposely put you in danger, right."

She slowly shook her head and said quietly, "N-no."

"Look I'm not going to pressure you into going if you don't want to," I said considerately. Shy smiled knowing I took her feelings into account. Although I did wanted to go on this boat trip with her, but if entering the forest scares her then we won't go. I thought of one last thing before completely dropping it all together. "Wait what if we um...go the opposite way? Would it be more safer heading aw-ay from the forest? If not we can just have our picnic here than," I asked her.

"Well...actually I have been down that way," Fluttershy said brightening back up, "It leads to a beautiful valley, oh you'll love it."

I smiled as I thought to myself, "There's still a chance that we can go on our adventure."

"Ok then, it's settled we'll have our picnic going do-wn stream instead of up stream," I said.

Shy smiled warmly feeling much better that she didn't have to take the dangerous route. I leaned in to kiss her but she pushed me back and said quietly, "Pinkie's watching, you don't want her to find out do you?"

I glanced over to the party thrower. She was staring at us happily resting her chin on her hooves leaning off the edge of the boat. I gazed into the yellow mare's eyes again and said softly, "She already knows about us."

Fluttershy face brightened up even more, "Yo-you told her we were together," she said happily.

I nodded my head and said, "I told her that I'm in love with the most precious mare throughout Equestria." Pinkie was aweing and when Shy heard that she was going to joyfully kiss me but our kiss didn't land on each other's lips. Pinkie had jumped in between us hugging us so we ended up kissing her pink cheeks instead.

"Where did she come from? I didn't even see her jump out of the boat," I thought,"...never mind," I sighed thinking to myself. Pinkie is Pinkie, gotta get use to that.

"Of course I knew silly, and I could never be happier for you Fluttershy," the pink mare said excitedly.

The timid pegasus blushed and was a little embarrassed for accidently kissing her friend, I on the other hand just smiled at Pinkie and glanced back at Shy who was looking into my eyes. I saw she was a lot happier knowing I may be ready to tell the rest of her friends, well maybe.

The earth pony let us go, "Today is going to be so much fun, come on what are you waiting for?" she questioned jumping back in the boat.

Without Pinkie in the way I pulled Fluttershy close and kissed her. This time our lips met and we shared a gentle kiss. I looked up at Pinkie and said as nice as I could, "You know it's just going to be ahh...just the two of us."

"Just the two of us," Pinkie repeated, "...but aren't you taking Fluttershy, too?" The frizzled maned pony must have thought I meant me and her.

Me and Shy looked at each other then back at the pink mare, "Pinkie, I meant it as Shy and I are going, I mean...I'd like for you to join us but...," I looked into the timid pegasus's eyes and said, "...I need to spend some time with this lovely mare alone."

"Oh right, you two are going to be the ones bonding," Pinkie said, "Oh I love it when two ponies are in love. I remember when Cranky was reunited with his true love, Matilda." Pinkie smiled remembering when she brought Matilda to Cranky because he was looking for her all his life.

I picked Shy up and placed her in the boat with her saddlebag next to Pinkie. "As always thank you," I said thanking the party lover.

"Your super welcome," the poofy pink maned pony said before jumping out, "...now when you're out there make sure to have loads of extra fun for me, okay."

I told her we would before heading to the front of the trailer, "Well Pinkie goodbye, we'll see you later."

"Bye you two and have a great time," she said her goodbye before turning to depart. Fluttershy waved a hoof goodbye to her friend and as did I before I pulled the boat with my mare in it to the stream near the forest.

A little down the way Fluttershy asked me excitedly, "Does that mean you'll tell my other friends?" I turned my head looking over my shoulder, "I've been wanting to tell them ever since." The timid little pony gleed.

"I ah I trust Pinkie, she..I felt safe letting her know about us," I said, which was true because I did talk to Pinkie about my love for the yellow pegasus, "I'll come around to tell the others ah..later perhaps. I'm ah not quite ready to let them all know yet."

Fluttershy didn't look too glad anymore but she still happily said, "Oh okay then, whenever you're ready. At least I can finally tell somepony about me and you. So much things to tell Pinkie and I don't have to keep our relationship in the dark anymore, um sort of." Fluttershy wished she can tell all her friends but she was still a tad happy that I told one.

"Yeah, you don't have to keep it in the dark," I said quietly to myself. When will I bring it to light? Definitely sooner than later that's for sure. I just want to talk to Shy about my baggage first before telling everypony that we are together, that way nopony can say something that I haven't confess that would surprise Fluttershy.

The Everfree Forest

I walked along side of the outside of the Everfree Forest pulling Shy in the boat until we reached the stream of water. I back the trailer up and pulled the front of the boat off then the back. The little shy pegasus helped me carefully maneuver it to the water. Before putting the vessel completely in the water I had moved the empty trailer to the side and pushed it in between some bushes to hide it. "Nopony should mess with it, I hope."

Shy flew and landed inside near the front of the boat and I went inside sitting in the rowers seat. I grabbed each oar placing each one through the little hooks on the sides of the boat. Just in case I leave the oars unattended they won't fall into the water and float away. With that I began to paddle away down the stream.

I watched the critter caretaker nose in her bag pulling out a red and white polka squared blanket and unfolded it laying it between me and her. She then placed each item in her bag setting it up on the cloth liner. The box with the breakfast was placed in the center with the bottles of cider, one for her on her side and mine on my side. The box with the pie was left on the side of us for later. She had paper plates and forks set as well.

It was close to noon and my stomach was gurgling, "Boy am I hungry," I said as Shy bit the tab off and the lid opened revealing a mouth watering entree.

"Oh I hope this satisfies you," Shy said, "...I got us a big belgian waffle with all the works," she started to point out all the toppings, "...peaches and strawberries with whip cream and strawberry syrup and chopped nuts and a cherry on top, mmm mm looks so delicious."

It was like an ice cream sundae on a waffle without the ice cream. It was a little messy for being in the bag but it was pretty big so it should fill us up. "Can't wait to dig in...oh let me help you," I said as Fluttershy was trying to divide the waffle into proportions. I stopped rowing and allowed the flow of the water to take us, that way I could help her cut the waffle in half.

"Thank you T," the little pegasus said ,"without being able to use magic I sometimes don't know how I do it with these hooves." The yellow mare stared at her hooves. Sometimes I don't know how you ponies do it with hooves, either.

"There we go," I said putting half on her plate while I took the other portion. Shy started to eat only using her mouth as I used my fork. We started to enjoy our meals down the calm water bed.

"What a wonderful mare to have?" I thought to myself, "Anypony could have had such a loving, caring, kind and gentle mare like Shy." I took another bite as did she and our tummies were being filled. "And I was the lucky one to be with her. I knew I didn't deserve her and I wish I could start over from day 1 knowing I wouldn't have secrets or skeletons in the closet to begin with," I continued to think, "I love Shy and I always will and I'm glad to have such a mare loving me back. Heh loving me back...did she truly? Of course I believed that but with this "strange feeling" going around there was one question I needed Shy to answer. It was left unanswered when I asked it before." Close to finishing our meal I went ahead and asked, "Fluttershy," I said watching the pegasus finish chewing.

"Yes," she said softly after she swallowed.

"Um...," I started to fiddle my thumbs before I could say what I was about to ask, "...you love me right?"

Fluttershy looked up at me, "Of course I do with all my heart," she said placing a hoof on her chest where her beating heart was.

I didn't want to ask this, I was afraid of what the answer may be, but I went ahead and asked, "Um why? I mean what is it that ah...what made you fall in love with me?"

The pony with the butterflies on her flank looked away before answering, "Well...um..."

Here it comes, this was what I was afraid of, the "Um's", "Ah's", and "I don't know's". Just like Applejack when I asked her and she had no clue why she loved me. I sighed and slowly shook my head looking down. "I guess it was true for Shy, too, but what's this," I thought speaking too soon. I opened my eyes looking straight into hers as I listened to the rest of Fluttershy's answer.

"Tommy I love you because you are the most sweetest, kindest, caring, nicest pony I've ever met," she said honestly, "...you're considerate and you never force anything on me. You stand up and protect me and you wouldn't allow anypony to harm me in any way. You think of my feelings and you're concerned for me because I mean something to you. You never say mean things to me or treat me poorly or badly like you didn't care for me. And I know you'll take care of me and wouldn't leave me behind. I know you love me truly and deeply as do I for you. You are everything to me T, my lover and soul mate. I'll always love you." The yellow pegasus then leaned over the food and kissed me.

I smiled happily knowing and hearing what she said was true, it had to be. I felt much happier, too as I grabbed her cheeks and pulled her in for another long kiss. I even had a few tears of joy.

"What's wrong?" the shy mare asked when the kiss was broken.

"Oh nothing, knowing that just brings joy to my heart," I said.

Shy smiled and said, "What I said is true and you did make me a very happy mare." she nuzzled my cheek.

We gazed at each other as two would gaze at a beautiful sunset or sunrise before we went back to finishing up on our meals. After we licked the plates clean and the mess was picked up and put away in the saddlebag we drank the cider washing down our breakfast and the two empty bottles found their way next to the trash in the bag.

I felt so good inside I was getting into a playful mood. Shy watched me as I grabbed the pie box and placed it in between us.

"You want to try a piece of this pie?" I asked smiling opening the carton letting the fresh apple scent fill the air.

The little pony placed a hoof on her belly debating, "Well I guess one more little bite wouldn't hurt."

The pie was pre-sliced so I scooped a slice and fed it to the awaiting mare with her mouth slightly opened. Fluttershy closed her eyes expecting the piece to find her tastebuds in her mouth, however I smushed it on her muzzle, in a joking manner. Shy opened her eyes and quickly scrunched her face not expecting that. Apple bits and crust decorated her muzzle as she sat there listening to me playfully laugh.

"Hahaha uah," my laugher ended with a pie to the face. The pan was removed and I wiped my eyes so I could see. Fluttershy pretended she was angry but she had a smug look on her face. "Well...looks like somepony's bold," I said playfully.

Shy then said, "You mess with the Shy, you get the pie."

"Easy there don't get all assertive on me now ha ha ha," I laughed.

We looked at each other's messy faces and started giggling. We both washed our faces clean on the side of the boat using the stream water.

I looked down at our reflection, "Aren't we the couple?" I said wrapping my left arm around her withers. Our heads tilted and our foreheads met as we stared at the mirrored pair in the water. Shy didn't respond, in fact, she seemed to be fixed staring down at the reflection.

Another image had appeared behind us and he looked down upon us smiling. I quickly looked over my shoulder and nopony. He only reflected in the water and I didn't want to see him at all, not now, not today.

"Now what, now what do you want?" I asked angrily.

"Ponies these days," Discord muttered under his breath, "couldn't a simple "hello" or "how are you doing" would have done?" he asked me.

"Yeah, like you deserve to be welcomed in opened arms especially after what you said to me and Pinkie last night, fuck you," I said and also realizing that Fluttershy stood still blankly staring at the reflection in the water with the same expression, "Hey what the hell did you do to her now," I yelled after shrugging the stiff mare.

"Haha don't hate me for telling you two the truth and I froze her so she wouldn't listen to our conversation," he answered, "...that is if you want me to unfreeze her..." the tall drac said ready to snap his talons.

I gestured him to stop, "Ah no no just don't." I don't want Fluttershy knowing about Discord until I told her personally.

"Maybe I should, because I really don't like your tone with me, so maybe Fluttershy here should be let in on the little secret," the conniving draconequus said thinking out loud.

"Come on Discord don't do it," I practically begged. It'll be all over if Shy found out.

Discord scratched his chin thinking to himself, I didn't know what that brain of his was thinking but by the looks of it he had something planned. "You know what Tom boy, I won't," the Lord of Chaos said.

I wanted to get rid of this guy so I can continue my day with Shy, "Discord what do you want? If its ruining our day then that isn't going to happen," I asked hoping to cut to the chase.

He pretended to not be guilty, "Me, I wouldn't do that," he said as if he wasn't going to do anything wrong. I gave him a look. He saw that I wasn't buying then admitted, "Alright, alright I was so what. You're wasting your time spending it with her anyway, just a waste of a day."

"Say whatever you want you're not going to discourage me," I said crossing my arms around Shy's hard body making sure she didn't fall in the water. She was a literal statue, she felt like a smooth slab of stone and it was fucking weird.

Discord rolled his eyes and tried something else so he said, "Shouldn't you be doing else things like I don't know figuring out that "weird feeling" you think the mares have-"

"NO, I don't think so, if you're implying for me to go to Twilight's to figure that," I cut him off, "I'm staying away from her." He inner growled to himself. I saw that and I don't know why he'd be upset if I didn't went. "Look if you want to go and figure it out you can come back and tell me if Twilight can fix it," I asked turning it on him.

"Me," the tall drac said pointing to himself, "First of all I'm not the one with the problem. I'll even demonstrate."

Before I could say that wouldn't be necessary Discord vanished from the water and appeared in front of me all dressed up in a dark brown tuxedo that had red polka dots that enlarged and shrunk, purple stripes that zig-zagged around him with colorful light bulbs on his shoulders. His dress pants were light blue with yellow rubber duckies quaking all over and his top hat was odd shaped with a jack in the box clown popping out of the top. He also wore a green spin bow tie that squirted milk when he squeezed the little pump in his sleeve. It was...odd but he was a chaotic overlord so his wardrobe must have crazy colorful clothes.

The multi colored drac had poofed a light bluish gray pegasus in his arms. The pegasus blinked a couple times before realizing she was being held. She wasn't sure what was going on or why she was taken from where she was previously doing.

Discord cleared his throat, "Why isn't this a lovely day?" he asked the confused pegasus with a toothy grin.

Her apple green gamboged colored eyes stared up at him and she flinched, "Please don't hurt me," she said scared.

"I wouldn't hurt you," the draconequus assured stroking her blonde mane, "...care for some flowers, their scent is whatever you'd like, blueberries, strawberry pie, a banana split, or even hay, you ponies like hay." He had made some funky looking flowers appear.

The pegasus nose resisted when Discord tried to put the flowers up to her nose to smell. She looked away from him and the crossed eyed pegasus looked down at me pleading to help.

I looked at her and said to Discord, "You don't need to do this, just put her down." But he ignored me.

"No flowers, okay what about compliments?" Discord asked then complimented, "...your eyes shine brighter than the stars at night."

"Let me go," Derpy begged trying to break free, "...you're creepy." The walled eyed pony finally did and flew behind me hiding.

"Fine be gone with you then," he crossed his arms and pouted. His efforts were useless and he looked like a clown no wonder she was afraid.

I faced Derpy who smiled at me before asking, "Um can you help me get back home sir? I don't want to stay here with him," Discord just stuck his tongue out at her.

"Uh yeah just head up and follow the stream back that way and when you get close to the Everfree just head to the right and you'll be in Ponyville," I directed.

"Okay, thank you sir," the bluish gray pony said and clumsily flew off. She had notice Shy and scratched her head, but she didn't question the odd stationary of the yellow mare because she wanted to get away from the weirdo that poofed her there.

Discord called out to her, "Bye call me."

The blonde mare turned her head to see a waving Discord blowing her a goodbye kiss, which actually chased after her so she went as fast as she could before the floating lips got her.

I just scratched my eyes saying to myself, "This guy."

"You see, Twilight Sparkle wouldn't have anything to diagnose on me," Discord explained, "and on top of that we don't quite see eye to eye (one of his eyes popped out of his head and stared into the other one before poofing back in his socket) so you would have to go because you're the mare magnet."

"I'm not fucking going. I saw what I saw and I'm not going to deal with Twi and her lustful feelings, shit so forget it," I shouted, "so if you don't have anything important to tell me or give me I'd like to be on my way...and unfreeze my marefriend." We glared at each other for short moment.

Discord finally said, "Oh you two get going then but I will see you, Tommy, later." He transformed into a shark and swam angrily away.

Fluttershy was also warming up indicating she wasn't going to be a life sized stuffed animal anymore and she responded to what I said before Discord arrived, "Oh yes we do make a nice pair."

I was thinking to myself, "Mare magnet, why me? If I was such a mare magnet why didn't Derpy get all seductive over me. In fact she didn't give me googly eyes or any indication she wanted to screw me," I thought some more as I felt a light bulb turn on, "Berry Punch, Carrot Top, Bon Bon or any of the other mares I've bumped into or waved at in town or even at the party saw me and they all didn't seem to want to share an orgasm with me or even chase after me for sex."

Fluttershy kissed my cheek and laid her head on my chest. My thought process got interrupted for the mere second but I continued thinking, "Well there was Lyra but she only wanted my hands. It only seemed to be just Fluttershy's friends. Why only them? Then again Rarity didn't seem to be sex orientated she just found me appealing, I don't know." I shook my head dropping the thought because I was here for Shy. All I wanted to think about is just me and her at the moment. I'll worry about all that later.

Fluttershy's Valley

Shortly after I was back to rowing while the little mare sat on my lap humming a lovely tone with that angelic voice of hers. We continued down the stream for another half an hour before Shy happily pointed out, "We're almost there, just around the bend and we'll be in the valley."

The stream was more like a creek now and it began to get wider until we ended up traveling on a small river that ventured into the valley Shy was talking about. There were lots of hills with lush green grass and the river cut through the middle. We felt a cool breeze as we entered the hills and I rowed near the bank so Shy and I could walk on the dry land.

Fluttershy bounced happily out and took a deep breath taking in the fresh air. I dragged the boat unto the shore and left the bag and oars in it. "You're right, Shy, this place is great."

"Oh you think so," Shy said spreading her wings, "I want to take you to my most favorite spot here," she said as she flew up the hill and gestured for me to follow her. I followed close behind her as we were reaching the top. Shy waited for me to get to the top before saying, "You see that hill over there?" I nodded my head as I squinted my eyes to see the hill in the far distance. "It's just on the other side." From the hill we currently stood on to the hill in the distance wasn't too bad of a stretch.

I looked at the yellow pegasus and smiled saying, "Well let's get going then. I want to see this location of yours, oh wait, look! What's that over there?" I pointed at nothing inparticular behind us.

"Huh," Fluttershy turned and looked at where I was pointing at, "I..I don't see any-"

Before she could finish her sentence I said and tapped her shoulder, "Tag your it," and ran down the hill as fast as I could.

Fluttershy had turned around and saw that I was close to halfway down the hill before chasing after me, "Oh T."

Running down the hill gave me a little more momentum so I was able to go faster, but after reaching the bottom and started up hill that was a different story. I made my way up the hill slowly but tried to push myself to go as fast as I can cause I saw the pegasus shortly behind me and she had already reached the bottom. The shy pony was making her way up the hill after me and because she had wings, she was able to fly and catch up to me a lot quicker.

I looked over my shoulder to see her catching up quick but unlike Rainbow Dash or a jet that would pick up speed extremely fast, Shy just gradually caught up to me and with no real effort by the looks of it. She just smiled happily and flew up the hill with ease while I climbed the hill huffing and puffing.

Once I reached the top I had kneeled down to take a breather. I soon felt two hooves push me forward, "Tag," and I lost my balance causing me and the mare behind me to roll down the hill. We were like two kids rolling in the grass on a little hill at the park. We were laughing as we tumbled down the hillside and finally halting with me laying on top of her.

Fluttershy looked into my eyes with her magnificent teal orbs. I smiled down at her before sitting up. I looked around and saw that we were in a meadow with flowers, tall grass, and butterflies around, lots of them. This must be her spot.

Shy stood to her hooves, "Isn't it peaceful?" she asked me as I gazed around.

"Yeah it sure is," I acknowledged, "...hey Shy aren't you forgetting something?"

The yellow pony quickly remembered that I was it, "Oh right, you're it." She galloped away and I got up and took chase after her. She happily ran away from me but I was gaining on her. We ran through the tall grass passing by various flowers and hovering butterflies.

As I drew near the runaway pegasus I yelled, "I'm going to get you Fluttershy." Tagging her would have been my trophy but when she looked back at me she spread her wings flying away taking my flawless victory of a tag with her. I was losing her as she was getting away, eventually I slowed down to catch my breath.

The little mare ahead turned around and hovered back to me. She saw how tired I was, "Was I um going to fast? I could just jog or um run slowly, if you'd like me to," the shy pony said thoughtfully.

I sat on the ground and said, "No no that's okay."

Fluttershy landed and sat in front of me, "N-no, no it's not, I shouldn't have used my wings, it wasn't fair because you don't have any."

I sat up on my knees and hugged her, "Oh stop, Shy, you're a pegasus how could you not use those beautiful wings of yours." She smiled unfolding her feathery wings looking at them with a blush. "Besides I have another game in mind," I said before scanning the area, then back at Shy to tell her what to do, "Close your eyes and count to ten."

"Oh um okay," Fluttershy closed her eyes and cover them with her forehooves and started to count. At that moment I got up and took off through the meadow. "One...two...um three...f-four...five..." As soon as she hit 5 I dropped to all fours and started crawling on my belly. "..six...ah seven...eight...ni-nine...ten," Shy finished counting and looked around, "T, where did you go?" she called for me.

I was crawling slowly and as far away as possible. Good thing this side of the hill had this entire field to work with. "Shy would have to search all around just to find me," I thought to myself. I could hear her back there.

"T...where are you T," she said skimming through the grass.

I continued my crawl slowly so the teal eyes wouldn't see the rustling of the grass. For a couple minutes I was not found yet, so I would peek over the grass tips and scan for Shy. Then if I didn't see her I would proceed getting away from where I started.

I started to get bored because of the waiting so I sat there picking flowers. They smelt nice. I decided to make a circlet out of them so I can give it to my mare. I placed it on my head and started to pluck more to make Fluttershy hoof bracelets, next was her tail. I made it to where I could tie it to the base and near the end of her tail. The colors of the flowers were purple, blue, pink, and red. I placed them all on my wrists and lastly to make a necklace and I was done.

In the middle of making that, "T um what are you doing?" I heard a voice say. Uh crap she found me and on top that I was wearing this flowery girly shit.

"You found me," I said surprised and a little embarrassed.

The yellow pegasus was hovering behind me, "Oh I'm sorry was I not supposed to," she quickly apologized and covered her eyes.

I quickly said, "That's okay, you're supposed to its Hide n Seek but um..," I started taking everything off, "..I made all this for you heh heh." I passed a smile trying to hide my embarrassment.

Fluttershy slowly lowered her hooves to see what I made for her, I don't think she cared that I wore flowers. She landed next to me that way I can put everything I made on her. "Yo-you made all this for..for me," the yellow mare said.

I nodded my head as I first placed the circlet on her head. Then the necklace, next was the bracelets, one on each forehoof. I plucked a flower and placed it near the bottom of her mane and another plucked for the part of her mane that went down her neck.

Fluttershy notice the remaining ones and I told her that those go on behind her, so I told her if she could turn around. "Oh okay," she responded and did just that. The kind hearted pegasus watched me as I lifted her right hindleg up so I can slip the last bracelet on, well actually it was more bigger and it went on her thigh like Betty Boop's. Next were the flowers that went on the tip, not quite at the end though, of her tail.

Finally, in order to get the last flowers on I asked, "Shy I'm going to need you to lift your ah...tail so I could um..tie the two stems together."

She had a deep blush now and she responded with, "Oh u-um su-sure," Fluttershy looked away lowering her head knowing if she did so, she'd be revealing her marehood to me. And because it was me she didn't hesitate too much when the pink tail slowly lifted up and set off to the side.

As I tied the 2 flower stems together at the base of her tail I couldn't resist not to look at that precious pussy glistening in the sunlight. Shy felt my palms resting on her flank causing her asshole and pussy to constrict. I could feel myself getting hard especially thinking about what we did at bath time the other day. "Oh I could take Shy right now, she's such a fine mare," I thought licking my lips. I had to take my eye off her vaginal lips before Hide n Seek became Seek n Fuck. Maybe later me and her can be more intimate.

"Um T," the shy mares voice snapped me out of it.

I quickly shook my head and answered, "Oh yeah I'm done."

Fluttershy turned around and looked at all the flowers on her that I placed and said looking back at me to kiss my cheek, "They're really pretty, thank you," she thanked me.

"Now my lovely little flower," I said romantically, "why don't you go and hide that way I can go find you. It is my turn, after all."

The now flower scented mare responded, "Oh I better go hide then." I closed my eyes and began counting. I could hear two wings flapping and felt a small gust of wind saying that Fluttershy had taken off.

1 through 10 I counted before setting off to find my mare full of beauty. I headed in the direction I thought she may have taken off to. I cut through the meadow keeping my sight keen to where Shy may be, most likely ducking in the tall grass.

I walked for a bit longer thinking about Tina, "I know I told Discord I was going to stay away from Twilight, but I need that kiss from her and Dash, too. I don't want to totally forget about Tina because bringing her back would be great."

I sighed not knowing what to do once she does come back. I also don't want to do anymore things behind Fluttershy's back to bring her back. Figuratively speaking, I had to slap myself in the face, "Dah I'll talk to Pinkie, she'll know what to do." Once we head back into town, I'll stop by the little party animal's place to get some advice. Until then I had a pretty little pegasus to find.

And because my sense in direction was correct I saw a bit of pink in the midst of the grass. I knew it was part of her tail. I crept up slowly step by step until I was a few feet away then I got on all fours and prowled towards my prey like a hungry lion.

Shy's back was turned and she was laying on the ground covering her face with her hooves and her eyes were closed tight. I slowly approached her until I was directly behind her. My left hand made it to the side of her then my right. I grinned down at her as I lowered my head breathing on her neck. Fluttershy instantly tensed up perking her ears up and gasped loudly with a squeal. She turned over to her side with her tail tucked between her legs before realizing it was me.

My ears felt like they were bleeding, that was a loud scream. Note to self: Don't scare Shy up close, her screams will bust your eardrums. My pinkie finger was digging in my ear. I don't think I'll do that again.

"You, you scared me," The recovering mare said starting to relax.

"Oh I'm sorry baby girl," I said softly starting to nibble at her left ear. I then laid down next to her wrapping my left arm around her lower back, making our bellies touch, kissing up and down her neck.

I stroke the timid pony's mane with my right hand when she said, "You know I don't like being scared, T." The mare had a shade of pink on her yellow cheeks as I planted kisses along her long soft furry neck.

I just muttered a, "Uh huh," through the kissing I did. Fluttershy had turned her head and placed only her left hoof over my shoulder that way I can get all of her neck. I removed my hand from her back and started to feel up on her by rubbing her inner thigh.

The little critter caretaker liked what I did and moaned. Her blush was deeper and she wanted to kiss me. I had stopped to meet her yellow muzzle inserting my tongue to meet hers. We made out while I massaged her inner flank and my hand that stroked her mane was now caressing her wing joints.

Those yellow wings started to unfold and stiffen. "Oh ha T," she moaned in my mouth. Next I placed my hand on her lower belly on her teats and began to squeeze them before trailing down to her moistening marehood. I made a "V" with my hand with two fingers on each side of her twat teasing the shy mare playing around her pussy on the sides, not necessarily on or in it.

Shy moaned out, "Hah ha oh ha T you-hah you're going to um ha ah oh make me oh my ah ha ha um feel oh ha hah all ah ah oh hah um naughty." I barely heard her say, "naughty", but I did stop taking it that she didn't want to make love right now, which was okay with me. If she didn't want to, she didn't want to.

"O-kay I'll sto-p," I said retracting my hands from her sensitive spots. I laid on my back and Shy laid in towards me closing her legs and I put my arm around her. The yellow pegasus was breathing a little heavy. "Sorry for getting you all work up there, Shy," I apologized.

"That's okay I was actually um...," The shy pegasus said looking nervous, "...well I ah..," I then stared at her awaiting for whatever she was going to say, "...um nevermind."

"Oh okay then," I said resting my head on my hand. I didn't catch the dissatisfied look on the shy mare's face. Instead of saying she did want to she just cuddled with me. I guess it wasn't in a timid ponies nature to ask for sex.

After a short quiet minute I piped up saying, "So gotta alot of butterflies here."

"Ah huh and this whole valley is filled with them," the shy mare said, "...and these are more unique than normal ones."

"How so?" I asked staring at the fluttering insects above.

Fluttershy pointed a hoof up at the various colorful butterflies and explained, "You see the markings on the wings? Well each color has a different shape pattern."

I focused and saw what she meant, like the blue ones had a triangular pattern, the red ones had a squarish like pattern, and the green ones had a circular pattern.

"The blue one is my favorite. Which one do you like?" she asked me looking at the flying bugs.

I gazed at the gentle mare next to me and said dreamily like, "The yellow one next to me."

Shy looked at me looking at her with bedroom eyes, "M-me."

"Well yeah I always tell you you're my darling little butterfly," I responded making her blush and giggle.

"Oh T," Shy said before kissing my lips. I planted my lips on her soft ones smooching once again, but without all the handiness this time.

"I really like your valley, Shy," I said placing my hand on her cheek.

"I'm glad you like it here as much as I do," She said joyfully, "..and you're the only one I ever brought here. I haven't even brought my own friends."

"So it's like your secret get away," I figured, "..well I'm glad you're sharing your secret place with me."

"Of course," the yellow mare said nuzzling me, "we're one now and whatever secrets I have I know I can trust you with them."

I thought to myself, "Yeah and my secrets... (sighs) I'll have to eventually tell her."

After sharing a passionate kiss we watched the butterflies and the clear sky cradled in each other's arms.

Meanwhile

A very not so happy shark swam upstream back to Ponyville. Discord was speaking to himself.

"Sure, go be with a mare that you think loves you back," The gray shark said, "I can't wait to see the look on his stupid human face when I tell him what's the real cause of that "strange feeling" hahaha that the mares have for him. That way Fluttershy can tell him that it's been fake all along."

Discord stopped swimming when he thought of something that would be harsh to Tommy when told, "That gives me an idea, but first I need him to see the last two mares before I do that, especially saying that Rarity was a waste."

He continued to swim away saying, "Oh I'll get you to see dear Twilight, but in order to do that I am going to need to talk to a certain pony. With her, Tommy boy would have no choice but to seek a solution, which would be useless, but that'll get him to go to the princess of magic and that's all I care about."

"Oh this will be grand," Discord said happily, "I love being the Spirit of Chaos." He jumped out of the water like a dolphin. "Until they get back I'm going to have to kill some time." As he swam a wheel with cutie marks appeared and spun stopping on a cutie mark that had a sun on it. "Looks like I'll be raining on Celestia's parade today. I've been meaning to see her anyway. Time to get a little payback for formally imprisoning me in stone. " the discolored shark laughed evilly, "Oh Tommy, this is not over."

As the shark swam to ready his master plan the two lovers had fell asleep happy to be together on this wonderful day, but with the shark on the loose will it stay that way?
