Pinkamena and Cheese Sandwich

Pinkie woke up next to Cheese in a small bed in a strange place. She jumped up, but then realized that she was in Fluttershy’s house, in her spare bedroom. She looked at Cheese and saw that he was still fast asleep. She closed her eyes and tried to go back to sleep, but she just wasn’t tired.

She carefully got up from the bed, trying not to wake Cheese, and walked down the stairs to the living room, where Fluttershy and Discord were sipping tea and watching the animals play around together.

“Oh, hi Pinkie. How was your nap?” Fluttershy asked, putting her tea cup down on a floating platter.

“It was good. Cheese is still sleeping though.” She said.

“I’m guessing you couldn’t get back to sleep?” Discord asked.

Pinkie nodded. “There’s something I’d like to do before Cheese and I leave Ponyville forever.” She said, taking a seat on the couch next to Fluttershy.

“What is it? Could I help?” Fluttershy asked.

“I want to leave a note for Gala Amour in the wrappings of my favorite knife, Barry.” She said. “I just need to get the knife, write the note, and leave it somewhere she might find it someday. If you can possibly help with any of that, it would be great.”

“Ahem.” Discord coughed. Pinkie looked over at him, he was holding Barry in his claw.

“How did you…” She began to ask. He stopped her by looking at her strangely. “Never mind….” She said awkwardly.

“Here, for your precious daughter.” Discord said, handing the knife to Pinkie.

“Thank you.” Pinkie said, taking the knife graciously.

“Do you need a piece of paper? And perhaps something to write with?” Fluttershy asked.

“That would be great, thanks Fluttershy.” Pinkie said.

Fluttershy left the room to get a piece of paper and a quill for Pinkie to write her note with. While she was gone, Discord said, “I’ll tell your daughter all about you and Cheese when she’s all grown up.”

“What if you don’t know her?” Pinkie asked.

“Then I’ll find her and befriend her of course.” He said, like it was obvious.

“And you’ll tell her or show her how to find Barry if she hasn’t already? And you’ll tell her that his name is Barry?” Pinkie asked, holding Barry close to her.

“I’ll visit him every day and sharpen his blade if it will make you happy.” Discord said. He had obviously learned the concept of true friendship after being with Fluttershy for so long.

“Even visiting him every other day would make me happy, Discord.” Pinkie said, smiling, with tears shining in her eyes.

When Fluttershy returned she had a piece of parchment and a quill in her mouth. She put them down on the table near the couch so Pinkie could write the note, and then she sat back down next to Discord. Pinkie went and sat down on the floor next to the table and put Barry down on the table next to the paper.

Fluttershy and Discord quietly watched her as she picked up the quill in her mouth and started writing the letter.

“Dear my sweet Gala Amour…..” Pinkie started writing. When she finished the letter she folded it up as carefully as she could with her hooves and she put it inside the wrappings. She kissed Barry on the handle and handed him back to Discord.

“Could you put him back in the basement of Sugarcube Corner somewhere?” She asked.

“Sure I can.” Discord said, taking Barry and snapping. Somehow magically teleporting him back to where he came from.

“Thank you.” Pinkie said. She sat back down on the couch next to Fluttershy and just as she did, Cheese came down the stairs.

He let loose a big yawn, “Hi guys.” He plopped down on the couch next to Pinkie.

“Hi sleepy head. How was your nap?” Pinkie asked.

“Nap? I thought that was full on sleep.” Cheese said. “Anyway, it was great. That had to be like, the softest bed I’ve ever slept on.” He said, stretching his legs slightly.

Pinkie laughed slightly and looked out the window. The sun was setting and it was getting dark. “Cheese, we need to leave soon.” Pinkie said, suddenly getting more serious.

“Right.” Cheese said, nodding. Pinkie and Cheese got up, said their goodbyes to Fluttershy and Discord and then left right at nightfall. Pinkie was feeling much better despite the torturing she had endured earlier, so she could walk by herself. Cheese was still slightly sleepy, but he walked on.

“Cheese?” Pinkie asked as they walked in the shadows in the darkness.

“Yes, Pinkie?”

“What if Princess Luna really is after us? What if Princess Celestia is taking care of all her duties, like she did when Luna was banished to the moon, and Princess Luna is after us right now?” Pinkie asked.

“That’s highly improbable.” Cheese said, handing Pinkie a black cloak he pulled out of somewhere. “Now, put this on so we’re not seen by someone who possibly wants to kill us.” He said, throwing another cloak over himself.

Pinkie sighed and put the cloak over herself. Cheese looked at her and flipped the hood over his head. Pinkie did the same and they continued walking. After a mile or two of silence Pinkie spoke again.

“Cheese?”

He sighed softly. “Yes, Pinkie?” He was obviously enjoying walking in silence.

“Oh… Nothing, I just miss snuggling in bed with you. And I miss all those nights we spent together.” Pinkie sighed dreamily.

“Oh, Pinkie.” Cheese said sweetly. He stopped walking and turned to face her. “I miss all those things too, but we’re on the run now, from murderous princesses. We can’t afford the luxury of staying in bed together all night.” He said.

"Do you know what I miss the most?" Pinkie asked him.

"No, what?"

"I miss our baby, Gala Amour. Oh, I hope she's alright." Pinkie said sadly.

"I'm sure she's fine. Someone we know and love is taking care of her and she's happy. I promise."

"Pinkie Promise?" Pinkie asked, her voice cracking slightly.

Cheese smiled. "Cross my heart, hope to fly. Stick a cupcake in my eye."

Pinkie smiled and closed her eyes. A single tear slowly crawling out of each of her eyes. “Cheese, I love you so much.” Pinkie said, her eyes still closed.

“I love you too, Pinkie.” Cheese said. He leaned in and kissed her lovingly. Pinkie kissed him back and he quickly broke the kiss. “We don’t have time for this, we have to go, now.” Cheese said, seriously.

He turned around again and they began walking again, slightly faster than before. The stars shone bright in the night sky; the full moon, even brighter.

“Cheese, have you figured out where we’re going?” Pinkie asked. Before he could answer, she added, “Please don’t tell me we’re just wandering around aimlessly until we find someplace we can live happily.”

“Uhhhh…….” Cheese said awkwardly. “Yeah, I know where we’re going, but….. It’s a surprise. I’m not telling you until we get there.”

Pinkie rolled her eyes, suppressing a small smile and giggle. “Well, I’m starting to get a little sleepy. How about we keep ourselves awake and trot a little bit?” She asked, picking up speed and trotting ahead of Cheese, swishing her tail in his face as she passed.

Cheese smiled slightly and trotted up to her, keeping pace with her. She giggled and sped up to a gallop. Cheese followed, both their hoods falling off from the force of the wind blowing at them.

Pinkie started slowing down, “What, are you giving up already?” Cheese asked, slowing down with her, while staying slightly ahead of her.

“No.... I just…. I’m so tired.” Pinkie said through shallow, hurried breaths, a smile still glowing on her face. Cheese smiled at her, breathing heavily as well. He sat down on the ground next to where Pinkie was hunched over.

After they had both caught their breaths, Pinkie began laughing hysterically. She rolled over on the ground, holding her stomach with her fore hooves and she lie on her back with her back hooves in the air. Cheese looked at her awkwardly.

“Pinkie, are you ok?” He asked, trying to hold in his own laughter. “Why are you laughing?”

Pinkie mumbled a few half words through bursts of laughter. Cheese held his hoof over his mouth as he tried not to laugh. He giggled slightly until Pinkie finally stopped laughing. She rolled back over and sat on her haunches. She took a deep breath and explained to Cheese why she was laughing so hard and so randomly.

“I just, I thought this was so funny. This situation we’re in. I don’t know why, it just struck me as funny and so I started laughing and I just couldn’t stop.” She said, holding in small giggles.

Cheese chuckled at her explanation. “Come on, we’ve got to keep going.” He said, standing up and pulling the hood back over his head. Pinkie did the same and they continued walking through the barren wasteland they had found themselves in.

They walked until the sun had begun to rise once more. They looked around for somewhere to stay during the day, but they didn’t see anything.

“Cheese, where are we going to stay?” Pinkie asked. “Oh, being on the run is such hard work.”

“You know what.” Cheese said. “I’m pretty sure I saw an uninhabited cave a little while back. If we hurry, we can get there before the sun comes all the way up.”

“Ok then, let’s go.” Pinkie said, turning around and trotting in the other direction. Cheese followed her. When they got to said cave, they walked in. Cheese hollered into the cave, and to their delight, no sound came back except for his echo.

The duo walked as deep into the cave as they could stand and they curled up together to sleep through the day. Before they fell asleep, however, Pinkie started a conversation.

“Cheese, what if we stayed here? It’s not so bad.” She said, kicking an animal bone away from her. “But, you said you already had a place planned, right?” She asked.

“Well…..” He started. “I did kind of have something planned… But…. I suppose we could stay here for a little while. For food, and rest and such.” He said.

Pinkie yawned and leaned her head on Cheese. “That sounds great, Cheese. I love you. Good night.” She closed her eyes and fell asleep quickly.

“I think you mean good morning.” Cheese said, chuckling to himself. “Pinkie?....” He waited. “Pinkie Pie?” He asked again, looking at his sleeping lover. He listened to her soft breathing and soon fell asleep himself in the comfort of the dark, damp, cold cave.

When Pinkie woke up, it was still nighttime. She stood up and stretched. She looked at the night sky and realized she had fallen asleep early in the morning, not at nighttime. So she had slept all day. She looked around, but Cheese was nowhere to be found. Pinkie told herself not to worry and that he would show himself any minute.

“I’ll only start panicking if I don’t see him for at least 10 more minutes.” Pinkie thought. She sat down near the edge of the cave, waiting for her beloved to show himself. A few minutes later, Cheese approached the cave carrying his cloak in his mouth like a sack.

“Cheese! You’re back!” Pinkie said happily, hugging him as he neared her. He set the cloak/sack down on the cave floor. It popped open, and inside was food. “And you brought food! You’re the bestest.” Pinkie said, kissing his cheek and hugging him again, tighter.

“I know.” Cheese said, smiling and hugging her back. Cheese and Pinkie sat down and ate what food he had brought back with him. When they were done eating, they relaxed for a little bit.

“Cheese?” Pinkie asked as they sat at the mouth of the cave, watching the grass blow in the breeze and small animals frolicking together.

“Yeah?”

“What are we going to do every day? We don’t have to work, or take care of anything. The only thing we really need to do is find food, and food is everywhere out here.”

Cheese was about to answer, but he stopped and looked up at the sky and the clouds. He thought, and he thought, but he couldn’t think of anything productive they could do. “I’m not really sure, Pinkie.” He finally answered, shrugging his shoulders.

“Are you absolutely, positively sure that you can’t think of anything? Anything at all?” Pinkie asked, scooting closer to Cheese.

“Its obvious she’s thinking of something, but she wants me to say it. I hate it when she does that, but it is pretty adorable sometimes.” Cheese thought. Cheese just shook his head again, not taking his eyes off Pinkie’s eyes.

Pinkie sighed and looked away. “Fine…” She started. “I have an idea, but I don’t want to say it.”

“What do you have to be embarrassed about, Pinkie?” Cheese asked. “We’ve been together for nearly 5 years now.”

She sighed again. “Well, umm…. What if we…. You know…..” It seemed like she was too nervous to say what was on her mind.

“Pinkie, you really can tell me.” Cheese watched her struggle as she tried to force herself to say it. He started thinking to himself as he waited for her to spill it. Then he remembered he had seen her act like this once before, the very first time they had slept together. After all, she was the one who had made the first move, and what she was doing now, it was the same thing she had done to try to let Cheese know that she wanted him.

“Pinkie, is it that time of the year again?” Cheese asked, guessing that she was in heat.

Pinkie looked at him, slightly surprised and then she nodded shamefully.

Cheese smiled while she wasn’t looking and then said. “Pinkie, that’s ok. I don’t mind doing…” He paused, “you know what, if you really want to.”

Pinkie knew what he really meant was that he wanted it too. She smiled slightly, but then her smile faded. “But, Cheese…” She started.

“What?” He replied, his smile fading.

“What if I get pregnant again? What if we live long enough for me to give birth? I mean, I’ve done it before and it’s not that bad, but how are we going to explain to him or her when he grows up why we’re living here in the wilderness?” She asked.

“Pinkie,” Cheese said smiling, “That’s not going to happen, you worry way too much.”

Pinkie nodded. “You’re right. Let’s just go do this, I want you so bad right now.” She begged, sounding needy but also somewhat seductive.

Cheese smiled, “Yeah, let’s.” They walked to the back of the cave to perform the dirty deed.
