A New Nightmare Awakens

Nightmare was undressing herself in the bathroom, about to take her shower. She was admiring her new body through the mirror in the bathroom, after all Ryan did say she had the body of a super model, and she so wanted to test out the effect of her new body on someone. Then Ryan's warning came forth in her mind, reminding her of how it was considered indecent to show yourself naked to someone.

An idea then form itself into her head, she could not show herself naked but she could bent the meaning of Ryan's warning. She started looking around for something that which she could use to 'cover' herself with, she spotted a bathrobe but deemed it too modest for her intention, then she saw the towel she use to dry herself with. What if she were to wrap herself with the towel and exit the bathroom completely wet in front of Ryan. 'I do wonder what his reaction could be, after all he does need a little reward for helping me. That's it I am going to do it!' It is with that thought in mind that she took her shower, when she exited the shower she just wrapped herself in the towel. Still wet and dripping she exited the bathroom.

Ryan look up from the stove, at the sound of Nightmare exiting the bathroom, where he was making his and Nightmare's breakfast. What he saw made him choke on his spit and made all the blood in his body flow to his head. Because before him stood Nightmare Moon, dressed only in the bath towel, bearing her moon cutie mark, he bought for her yesterday, and she was winking at him in a sly manner that made him realize that she was messing with him. He opened his mouth to say something, but the only thing that came out was incoherent noise born from his flustered state, which only made Nightmare laugh in merriness in return, seems like her plan was working.

''Is something wrong Ryan?'' She asked with false innocence tilting her head to the side while raising her eyebrow in fake confusion. ''Does my outfit distract you? If that is the case I can change?'' As she was starting to unwrap herself Ryan coughed which gathered her attention.

Ryan coughed a little more to clear his throat, making sure he regained as much calm as he could in his immediate situation. ''Nightmare please, go back in the bathroom and wear something proper?'' Unable to believe that he said all of this without stuttering even once.

''Why, don't you find me attractive anymore?'' She said while making her lip quiver with false tears in her eyes, in a fake pout.

Normally on a little child Ryan would find this cute and unbearable to look at, but since she is a grown women, which is taller than him, it just made it annoying that Nightmare would try something like this. ''Stop it Nightmare it's not gonna work on me, if you had been younger maybe? So just go and change while I finish the breakfast.'' He said as he returned his attention to his stove.

Nightmare huff turned around and left to return to the bathroom, disheartened that her little reward/joke did not work fully as intended, but it left her pretty happy to have been able to get that reaction of pure unease out of Ryan.

Ryan meanwhile was stuck with Nightmare's alluring figure in his head, those lovely curves, that wasp waist... Enough, but no matter what he tried it will probably haunt him for awhile, in a good kind sort of way.

The smell of something burning brought him back from his reverie, he looked down to see his bacon was about to become charred black. He quickly took the pan out from over the stove and deposited it on the counter, at least the bacon wasn't terribly burnt, in fact it just perfect. ''Damn you Nightmare and your perfect body! I almost had to redo the breakfast.'' He thought angrily, half at Nightmare and half at himself, at his lack of attention at what he was doing.

Nightmare came out of the bathroom, this fully clothed with black jeans and a purple shirt with effigy of the moon on hit, and could not miss the strange smell that came from the kitchen. Curious she walk to the kitchen and say Ryan setting the breakfast on the table, all ready to be eaten.

''Ryan?'' She ask making Ryan jump,not having heard her coming in, ''what is that strange smell?''

''Strange smell? Oh you mean the bacon, sorry it's just that when you cam in earlier it almost burnt because of your distraction!'' He said, trying to make Nightmare feel at least a little guilty.

Nightmare look at him her dragon like eyes, with her head tilt to the side, not understanding what bacon is. ''And what pray tell is bacon Ryan?''

''Well bacon is...'' and that's when his thought came to a abrupt halt. 'Wait didn't she say she was a pony before, so it probably means that she is, like her kind, vegetarian.' His skin soon turned pale at the realization that Nightmare might beat him up, the image of her kicking him in the ribs resurfacing, if she were to learn that humans eat meat. Not able to think of any excuses, he decided to go with the truth. ''Well bacon is, oh god this is awkward, bacon his meat to put it simply.'' He close his eyes and brought his arm in front of his face for protection, awaiting for something unpleasant to happen, when nothing happened he opens his eyes and saw Nightmare looking at him with slight amusement. ''Y-you aren't disgusted by what I just said?''

''Oh please Ryan why would I be,'' she said with an amused expression plastered across her face, being thought as someone weak to the point to shriek in horror at the only mention of meat always infuriated her in a way, but Ryan action are, in some way, amusing to her. ''Back on Equestria I was the only pony with fangs, and trust me when I say this they were not just for show Ryan. I am Luna polar opposite, and not just in the way we think, but in everything, even eating habit, of course I can eat vegetables like any other pony but I largely prefer meat, that is the reason why Luna was always in control while with others.''

''Oh, hum, okay I didn't expect that honestly but I guess it's fine, I wont judge because you eat meat.'' He said with total surprise and honesty, why would he judge some for what they eat, it would be total hypocrisy.

Nightmare for the first time did not know what to say, for the first time someone didn't judge for the way she eat, of course why would he judge for eating meat he is omnivore if she saw him eat through out her stay here is anything to go by. So instead she only say what truly matter, ''thank you for understanding Ryan.''

Ryan nod in understanding, and motion for the breakfast waiting at the table and they both promptly sit and begin eating. Once the breakfast is over and the plates have been rinsed does Ryan speak, ''Okay so today I have to go to work today, which begin at ten o'clock and I'll return somewhere in between sixteen thirty and seventeen o'clock. Until then, well I guess the house is yours just don't destroy, it's the only rule,'' he said while rubbing the back of his in uncertain of what Nightmare will do while he is away.

''Do not worry Ryan I shall take care of your house while you are gone.'' She said with a little smirk.
