Celestial’s sun was setting on the horizon as 2 Pegasus watched in awe of its beauty. fluttershy, a beautiful small Pegasus like a flower late to bloom had decided today was the day, she would ask her marefriend to stay over for once. it has been 4 months since she finally confessed to rainbow dash, sadly her timid nature has kept the relationship at a slow pace.

"um...uh...dashie?" she barely asked ending in a squeak. rainbow dash held the delicate mares hoof and replied "what’s up fluttershy?" she looked at the nervous mare who was stumbling with what she wanted to say. 'come on fluttershy, you've made her wait long enough' she thought, knowing rainbow had been more than patient with her. fluttershy could see the longing in dash's eyes, always holding off knowing how easily startled and frightened she was.

"uh...well, I um...was wondering if you would..."she squeaked as she spoke the last of it "spend the night?" at this fluttershy hid behind her mane, turning rose red as she tried hiding from embarrassment.

"if...um...you don’t...you know-mind" rainbow smiled hearing the question, finally seeing her delicate flower opening up to her more if only a little. "of course I would love to, it will be more comfortable anyways" rainbow replied with a wink making fluttershy blush harder, her eyes wide in surprise.

rainbow dash was enjoying the sunset with her marefriend fluttershy,  thinking back to when her beautiful flower confessed  and asked her out. it was now as she remembered fluttershys panicky expression when she was brought back to the present. "um...uh...dashie?" she  heard fluttershy say. "what’s up fluttershy?" the wild beauty asked, preparing to give her timid flower time to say what she wanted, as she saw her struggle to get it out. she had to admit though, seeing her fluttershy like this was adorable. getting back to reality rainbow listened patiently "I um...was wondering if you would...spend the night?" rainbow smiled wide, her gentle flower finally secure  enough in the relationship to have her over for the night. though rainbow  not only enjoyed the idea, but had looked forward to it a while. "you know-mind" she heard fluttershy say, feeling like she missed something but dismissed  it. knowing her fluttershy, it was likely the 'if you don't mind' that came after asserting herself.

she had wanted to spend the night from day one, but knowing timid the small Pegasus was she thought it best to allow the yellow mare to set the pace. rainbow decided to tease the young mare a little with her response. "of course I would love to, it will be more comfortable anyways" throwing in a wink for good measure, and reveled in the reaction that soon followed. she watched as her marefriend eeped at the suggestive tone blushing hard as her eyes widened like dinner plated as she realized what rainbow was getting at.

she had her fun, rainbow now decided to calm fluttershy down. "come on shy, let’s get inside before it’s too dark"

she said, hoping the notion of being outside when the sun was gone would get her inside quick.

fluttershy was knocked back to reality when the untamable Pegasus she loved said it would be dark soon. there was no way she was going to be caught outside when that happened, so she decided it was time to go in.  um...ya-lets go, I um...I want to wash up" the last words barely audible to anyone but the colorful mare who knows to listen hard. knowing rainbow knew her well, she tried to hide behind her mane again knowing too well that dash heard every word. fluttershy ran into her cottage to avoid any further embarrassment. she went straight to the bathroom to bathe before bed, feeling a little bad leaving rainbow like that so suddenly. able to calm down in a fragrant bubble bath, she tried to get her confidence up. 'don’t take no for an answer fluttershy, don't give in till she agrees to keep you company in bed' she thought to herself, not wanting to offend rainbow and have her sleep on the couch.

not wanting to keep the energetic mare waiting, she washed up quickly admitting she really just wanted to be with the one that made her feel safe and loved.  "sorry...uh...for making you" feeling nervous  knowing what was next, she got quiet saying the last of it. "wait" as she exited the bathroom saying this, she saw rainbow lying next to bed in wait. fluttershy made her way over to her, hoping to  relax and convince dashie to get on the bed instead.  "err...dashie?"  she managed "hm?" was the only response from rainbow. "I...uh...would prefer if you sat on the ...uh bed" she blushed a rose red at this as she drew closer to the awaiting Pegasus.

but soon as she was close to rainbow she got up and headed for the bathroom, reappearing moments later with a brush. fluttershy, sitting in the bed asked "um..what’s the uh...brush for dashie?" she asked knowing the answer, but surprised dashie would do so. “your hair of course, silly filly" said rainbow as she sat on the bed next to a blushing fluttershy. fluttershy watched as rainbow brushed her mane, gently and with loving care. as a first to having somepony else groom her like this, she was nervous, but excited as it was her dashie doing. 'guess this is what pinkie would call nervoucited' she smiled at her friends silliness.

Rainbow didn’t take long till she finished fluttershys mane and began on her tail. Fluttershy who had relaxed, eeped slightly at the brush going through her tail suddenly "uh...I can do my tail...dashie?" she said. a little embarrassed at somepony else fixing her tail. She was ignored, as rainbow finished brushing the timid mare’s tail leaving the brush on the dresser next to the bed.

Surprising her, making her eyes wide again rainbow had begun to preening her wings. Which were still lightly damp from the bath minutes ago. fluttershy was taken back at rainbows forwardness, as preening another Pegasus' wings was one of the top 3 most intimate of gestures for pegasi done in private. Mainly because like birds, wings were very sensitive parts of a Pegasus body, heightened as if nerves were exposed.

"wha-" was all she could get out before rainbow stopped her with a hoof over her lips. Still confused at rainbows sudden assertiveness, she watched as dash continued preening her wing. Fluttershy stayed silent the rest of the preening, eventually liking the idea of somepony else doing this. she noticed how gentle, and slow paced her dashie was being. Wondered how she was able to be so calm and still…when done with the first wing, rainbow asked for the other one to be opened to full glory.

as she did fluttershy saw the eyes of her wild marefriend, and was mesmerized at the longing she again saw in them. she felt bad, knowing how much rainbow wanted to do more than this.

on more than one occasion she thought she  saw rainbow stop herself from losing control.. it was in these times  fluttershys saw hunger in those beautiful magenta eyes. once or twice rainbows hands had neared some personal areas before quickly withdrawing, she was most of all how dashie had restrained herself this long and wanted to reward her dashie for being patient with her.

Fluttershy wanted more than anything to shuffle closer to her dashie, and enjoy the comfort of her closeness as they slept. "Uh...dashie I...um...was wondering if...maybe uh...we could" squeaking the loudest that night she finished in a quiet tone even rainbow strained to hear "cuddle?"

Dashies p.o.v

she watched as fluttershy ran inside, clearly embarrassed at having put the thought of her bathing in rainbows head. Rainbow had to admit, her shy had unintentionally teased her with that sentence and she liked it. She decided to follow suit and walked in, to the kitchen for a drink before going upstairs. Having got her drink of water to ensure she wasn’t dry lipped for later, she headed upstairs to wait. Rainbow knew she would like startle her marefriend when she kisses her, but she was willing to be a little assertive in hopes it would get fluttershy used to the idea.

rainbow headed up stairs next to the bed and lay on her belly in wait. “hope she forgets to groom her wings…what I wouldn’t give to be able to preen them for her” blushing at the thought knowing such a gesture was of upmost intimacy for a Pegasus. Few minutes had passed when she saw fluttershy heading out of the bathroom “sorry...uh...for making you wait” she heard her say, she smiled not minding the wait as she noticed how the angelic creature she was seeing forgot to not only preen but brush her mane and tail as well. Happy at her luck, she dashed to the bathroom for a brush intent on satisfying even a little of her hunger by brushing and preening fluttershy.

"um..what’s the uh...brush for dashie?" Shy asked as rainbow sat on the bed next to her. Rainbow smiled at her marefriend, and began brushing her mane enjoying the feel of her silken hair in her hooves. Seeing fluttershy relaxing while she brushed was reassuring. a couple minutes later she finished, and decided to do the mares tale as well. As she started fluttershy declined her attempts to groom her tail "uh...I can do my tail...dashie?" Rainbow almost didn’t hear her, nearly tuning her out as she continued to enjoy it. Rainbow decided to take advantage of fluttershys comfort zone, and begin to preen her wings while she was relaxed.

As time went, fluttershy relaxed as dashie groomed for her. Rainbow enjoyed the quiet calming affect the timid mare had on her, she was the only pony rainbow ever slowed down for. Without realizing it she would be slowing herself to match fluttershys pace or to enjoy a moment with her. She had finished with shy’s tale and, looking to fluttershy, saw she had relaxed enough to not notice she had stopped brushing. She took the opportunity to put the brush on the dresser, before turning her attention to her angel.

‘just start, that’s all it takes rainbow. Shell like it, just be gentle and she won’t mind’ she told herself. Rainbow dash then leaned over and began on the wing closest to her. Fluttershy panicked slightly being brought back to reality as she felt something on her wings. “wha-“ was all she said as rainbow silenced her. When fluttershy stayed quiet, she continued unaware fluttershy knew what she was doing. Trying to channel her hunger for physical attention in any way possible as she personally groomed her marefriends wings.

Rainbow blushed a bit as fluttershy closed her eyes halfway through, her head resting on the pillow. Clearly fluttershy was finally used to it, something rainbow saw as progress.

“I’ll need the other wing now beautiful” she said hoping fluttershy heard her. She did, as the other wing spread open shinning beautifully in Luna’s moonlight which only made it more striking. She felt closer to fluttershy as she continued her work, hunger at a stalemate.

Neither decreasing nor increasing, she about finished when she pulled fluttershy in close and gently placed a warm kiss on her lips. She saw as the orange blossom was  stunned by the kiss.

Fluttershy just sat there frozen in surprise as rainbow dash gave her a kiss on the lips so gently a snowflake wouldn’t break. in the few seconds the contact lasted fluttershy was overjoyed, yet left craving more, her hunger growing ever so slightly. when it ended, she opened her eyes wondering why her moment of bliss came to an abrupt sudden halt. She found her Oleander holding her close in her hooves. She blushed fiercely when she realized rainbows wings wrapping around her delicately, slow and protective, yet something else. Something she reveled in, she realized it was warm in this kind of hold. Fluttershy felt warmth at her core, a sense of security that nopony else gave her. she nuzzled tightly into the protective wings holding her, relishing the strong scent of the mare holding her. Her every breath slowing to normal as she welcomed the comfort. Tears of joy gently and slowly falling onto the rainbow colored mane. Relishing in the cyan Pegasus' loving embrace wishing for it to last forever, the gentle mare was happy a wide soothing smile crossed her face as she sighed in contentment. As peace claimed the angelic Pegasus, she fell asleep in the strong hooves. any embarrassment or worries of being like this were lifted in the warmth of her guardian angels protective wing embrace.

rainbow dash couldn't resist any longer, she needed to be close to her delicate  flower. to feel the warmth of her embrace that she had waited a long time for. She leaned in and gave fluttershy a gentle kiss on the lips before holding the smaller, frail Pegasus in her forehooves. enjoying the warmth of her special somepony so close she couldn’t help but envelope the shy one with her wings, most intimate of gestures for a Pegasus. resting her head gently on her better half's, she reveled in the wondrous scent of nature as it brought peace of mind. listening to the calm breathing of her companion, she felt the rhythm make her eyes droop. didn't take long before she fell asleep still embracing the love of her life.
