Kiss by Ragabash

Incredulously, Sunset Shimmer stared at the little girl beside her. She just asked a question, but Sunset couldn't quite believe what she heard. It was a simple one, but highly unexpected.

“I'm sorry, could you repeat that?” She asked. Surely, she was just hearing things.

“I asked if you could kiss me,” Sweetie Belle replied, in a matter-of-fact way.

...So, she heard right. Sunset wasn't sure what to make of that. After the events of the Battle of the Bands, she was forgiven by pretty much everyone, including Sweetie Belle. Not only did she stop avoiding her, but thanks to Sunset's advances, the two began to hang out with each other and got quite close after a while.

But not that close. As much as Sunset wanted to.

The situation was good, though. The two sat beside each other on Sweetie's bed and aside from her sister, nobody else was home. If Rarity were gone, things would be perfect. Except for the fact that they aren't in that kind of relationship, where they would kiss each other. Which raised questions about her request.

“Sweetie,” Sunset began, “why do you want me to kiss you?”

“I'm kinda curious what it feels like,” Sweetie Belle answered innocently. “And you have experience with it, don't you?”

She was probably referring to Flash Sentry. Sure enough, Sunset kissed him quite a few times, when they were together. But he was the only one and while she had others in Equestria, it wasn't the same as a pony. Albeit very similar.

“...Not really that much,” Sunset replied. “If you just want to try it out, you should better ask someone who is more versed in it. Like your sister.”

Sweetie made a gagging motion at that suggestion, which made the older girl giggle. “Are you serious?” Sweetie asked. “I can't do it with my sister! That's just... weird!”

Sunset shrugged. “I wouldn't say that. You're close enough that it wouldn't be too awkward. And since you'd just do it to try it out, it wouldn't mean anything. Of course,” she smirked, “if you want to kiss someone for real, you'd be better off with someone else.”

“Like you?”

Sunset blushed. “That's not what I meant!”

Awkward silence followed. After a while, it was broken by Sweetie.

“I can't ask her for that,” she said. “It'd be embarrassing and she'd just say that I should wait for my first love or something like that.”

That actually sounded a little like she already tried that, Sunset thought. But she decided not to dwell on it.

Again, there was silence, in which Sunset quarreled with herself. She really wanted to kiss the younger girl, but exactly because of that, she shouldn't do it. For Sweetie, it would be just practice or something like that. But for Sunset, it would be more, even if she knew that nothing would come out of it. It shouldn't matter much, but she feared that she wouldn't be able to control herself properly. That she surrendered to the temptation. That she might take things too far. Being inexperienced, the little girl might tolerate quite much, but at some point, even she would notice that something was up. And if that happened...

“Please? Just a small one?” Sweetie just didn't give up.

“...Fine.” On the other hand, Sunset found it hard to resist her.

Without even giving the older girl time to prepare, Sweetie turned towards her, leaned forward with closed eyes and pursed her lips. Sunset was taken aback for a moment. She didn't expect her to act so rashly. But now that she agreed, she had no choice but to go through with it.

Sunset placed her hands on Sweetie's shoulders, which made the little girl twitch in anticipation. Hesitating, she slowly moved her head closer, pursing her lips too. When they were about to kiss, she felt Sweetie's breath on her lips, which made the temptation even stronger. For a moment, Sunset considered backing out, out of fear that she wouldn't be able to control herself. But she wanted it too much.

After she hesitated a bit more, Sunset finally closed the gap and pressed her lips against Sweetie's. First lightly, but she soon pushed firmer against her. She tried not to get into it too much, but now that she felt the soft lips of the younger girl, she found it hard not to get lost in them. Her hands moved from the shoulders of the little girl behind her neck and Sunset gently pulled her towards her, their lips never parting.

It wasn't quite what she imagined. It was silly, but she thought that Sweetie's lips would taste... well, sweet. Naturally, she found that this wasn't the case and she didn't taste anything special. This didn't deter Sunset at all, though, and while she knew that it was enough, she was unwilling to stop.

Her heart beat faster the longer their lips touched. It shouldn't mean much and yet, Sunset couldn't help but fill her passion into the kiss. Getting lost in it, she slowly opened her mouth...

...Only for Sweetie to push her away. Snapping out of it, Sunset was annoyed at first, but then felt relieved and embarrassed. She nearly did something that she might regret later.

The little girl must have felt awkward too. She was blushing heavily and looked away. "T-That's enough," she said.

"R-right," Sunset simply answered.

After that, they just sat there in silence. Several times, Sunset thought that she should say something, ask Sweetie how she felt. But she thought that she should give her time for now. Maybe she was also afraid of the potential answer.

It shouldn't be a big deal, but somehow she knew that this kiss was changing things between them.
