Busy Days to Peaceful Nights

The first act of the stunt performance had not been the best for the watchful audience. However, for Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash, it had been the epitome of splendor. They began with small tender little kisses soon followed by much forceful embraces that lasted long into the second act. Finally, out of breath and starry eyed, they stopped to say a few words.

“Dashie…” Fluttershy squeaked almost inaudibly. “…I…”

With a face more red than a ripe tomato, Dash cleared her throat before covering Fluttershy’s mouth. “Sh…Whatever it is you want to say…it’s ok. You don’t have to say anything.”

She nodded. “…But I have to….There’s something I really want to tell you.”

“…Well…sure, go ahead. What is it?”

“It’s something I should have told you a long time ago…Something that you need to hear.”

Uh-oh…This couldn’t be good. Fluttershy sounded very serious. Was she ashamed for what just happened? Was she felling remorse for letting herself get carried away? Dash couldn’t help but feel like their long time friendship had just been ruined.

“…I’ve…never told this to anypony…and…” She started to choke up. “…you might hate me…but you have to know that…I love you.”

Dash covered her giggle. “That’s what you needed to tell me? Really?”

It appeared to Fluttershy that Dash was taking this surprisingly well, although not how she had hoped. “…y-yes…”

“Uh…thanks?” Dash could feel tips of her ears tingling so hot that a match could be lit against them. “If it…makes you feel any better…I love you too.” Wow, that was painfully dispassionate and lame to say. Dash instantly wanted to take that back and replace her words with something more fitting for the moment.

With those reciprocated words, although not as tasteful as she liked, Fluttershy could not have been any happier. “Y-You…do?”

“Sure!…” Dash cleared her throat. “…I mean…yeah. Sure I do…Why wouldn‘t I?”

“You mean it?…You’re not just saying that…cause…you feel sorry for me?”

“Why would I feel sorry for you?”

“…I don’t know…I just thought…maybe you’re saying that…so you won’t hurt my feelings.”

Dash laughed. “Geez, Fluttershy. Come on! That would be the meanest thing ever! I would never say I love you just because I feel sorry for you. That’s gotta be the un-coolest worst thing to ever say to somepony.”

She smiled sheepishly up at her before quickly hiding her face behind her mane. “…You…mean it?”

“…Yeah, I mean it…” Dash tilted her chin up to her. “…and I mean this too…” She gently placed her lips against hers and kissed her. When they parted, Fluttershy’s eyes took a couple seconds to open. “…See? I love you too…a lot…”

“Dashie…” She felt like tearing up from joy. “…I’m…so happy…”

Dash quickly gave her a hug, squeezing her uncomfortably as hard as she could. “Me too…”

Fluttershy wrapped her hooves around her neck before planting her lips below her ear and sucking hard. Her yellow wings unraveled slowly as her Dash hugged back with as much force as she could muster.

“W-Whoa, hey now!” Dash went stiff as she felt a strong tickling sensation below her ear as Fluttershy pressed herself against her. “Oh…geeeeeezzz….that’s…heh…pretty good.” She tried to gently push her back, but that only made the little mare double her efforts. When the sensations began to intensify, Dash’s wings twitched against her sides. “F-Fluttershy…N-Not here…” With the biggest most pleading eyes, Fluttershy looked up at her, and Dash brushed her mane back with her hoof to admire that pretty face. “…You…really want to…huh?”

Fluttershy simply nodded, letting her wings come back down to her side. “…I do..”

“This…really isn’t like you.” Dash rubbed her back with her hoof. As much as she wanted to lose herself to Fluttershy’s touch, it wouldn’t be right of her to do so without wondering why she was acting so out of character.

“I’m sorry…” Fluttershy sighed heavily as her ears drooped. “…I guess…I’m just…” Her face grew very dark red. “…pent up…”

Dash began to laugh before covering her mouth. “Did you just say…pent up?”

Fluttershy quickly let go of her and turned away. “…Sorry…I shouldn’t be acting like this…I just thought…you wanted to…maybe…”

Dash began to giggle louder, making the little mare a tiny bit angry. This was a serious issue for her, and all she got in return was laughing. “Aw, come on, Shy.” Dash quickly stopped. “I’m sorry. I’m not laughing at you. It’s just kind of…funny.”

“What’s funny?” She asked, confused.

“I never thought you of all ponies would ever say something like…you know, pent up.” Dash bit her lip hard to keep from breaking out into more giggles. “It’s kind of funny.”

Feeling rather silly, Fluttershy sighed. “…I’m sorry…I’m acting so stupid…”

“No no no, hang on. I didn’t mean it like that.” Dash suddenly felt bad and began to rub her back. “I get it. I really do…The whole living alone thing…is tough sometimes…Am I right, or am I kind of off base here?”

She nodded. Dash had nailed it perfectly. “…It is…You‘re right.”

Dash wiggled her nose against her ear before gently biting on the tip. This caused Fluttershy to giggle hard. “There it is! That’s the cute little smile I want to see.”

She turned to her, showing off that adoring smile she had been praised for. “…Thank you, Dashie…”

With a kiss to her forehead, Dash smiled down at her. “You’re welcome.”

With her hooves now squarely wrapped around her tummy, Fluttershy squeezed as hard as she could before nuzzling her face deep into her neck. “…I love you so much…”

Dash hugged her back while gently moving her hoof across the surface of her wing. “…It’s killing me how cute you are right now.” For a response, Dash felt her bite down gently on her shoulder. “…w-whoa…S-Shy…” Her eyes wandered up towards the ring of flying colts that were making a figure eight around cloud pillars. “…You really weren’t kidding…” She gently pushed her back. “Listen…can we wait…you know, til later? Right now isn’t really…the best time.”

She nodded before wiping her mouth. “Of course…We should probably watch the show.” She looked up to see a flyer pass by. “You did pay a lot for these seats…”

“Thanks.” Dash gave her a quick peck on the cheek. “I promise we can continue later.”

The rest of the show was very impressive. With two separate teams flying at each other, it looked like the flyers might collide with one another. Instead, they zoomed passed each other to create a checkered pattern in dozens of different colored trails. However, neither mare could completely focus on the spectacle. Fluttershy kept stealing glances up at Dash with more anticipation and giddiness than she had ever experienced. Dash was marginally focused, but a part of her wasn’t quite ready to leave Fluttershy alone. Every now and then, she would give the little mare a quick kiss on the cheek. After the third kiss, Fluttershy couldn’t take it anymore.

As they sat next to each other on the cloud bench, Dash suddenly felt a tickling nibble on her neck. “S-Shy?” She glanced down only to look right into the mass of her pink mane. The warm wet tickling suddenly intensified through her entire spine. “Geez…that’s nice….How are you doing that?”

Fluttershy looked up at her and asked, “It is…ok? I know you said to wait…but…”

Dash sighed. “It’s fine…But…can I still watch the show? I think the final act is coming up.”

“Of course.” Fluttershy nodded her head before going back to suckling on her neck, and she giggled with great delight each time Dash shivered or let out a funny little moan. Now pressing her side against her, she bit down firmly on a sensitive spot below her chin before blowing cool air against the teeth marks.

“W-Whoa, Shy!” Dash nearly jumped back. “…Where did you learn to do that?”

“Um…” Shy looked down, remembering how she would ready raunchy magazines late at night when all her critter friends were asleep. “…I’d rather not say…”

Dash smirked devilishly. “Oh yeah? Don’t tell me you have a collection of magazines or something.”

“No…nothing like that.” She let a small laugh escape her mouth as she tried to think of a different explanation that didn't make her feel so embarrassed. “…Your mom and dad…used to do that…when we all would go out to dinner sometimes…”

“Heh…” Dash choked back a laugh as hard as she could. Her parents had been very memorable and embarrassing for being so affectionate to each other when she was growing up. “…You have a really good memory.”

“…Sorry…”

“Don’t be. That felt…pretty awesome.”

“Um…can I…do it again?”

Dash looked away and blushed just as hard as before. She wanted to say no because of how embarrassed she felt. There wasn’t anypony around anywhere near them, but for some reason, she just a little bit more hesitant than her dear little Fluttershy. It was, to say the least, different. Finally, after deciding she would rather be fondled instead of left alone, she said, “…Sure.” A dirty mind can easily win over logic.

Instead of just leaning in close, Fluttershy wrapped her hooves around her neck before biting down harder on the same spot which caused Dash to gasp. Her tongue flicked against her blue coat, and with a loud squeal, Dash jumped back. “Ok ok ok! That’s too much.”

“Oh…” Fluttershy pulled away. “…I’ll stop now.”

Dash sighed before quickly standing up. “Come on…” She groaned.

“Huh?” Fluttershy asked as she cocked her head.

“I get it. I can take the hint...the really big hint…Let’s go.”

“Wait…are you sure? What about the rest of the show?”

“There’s always next year.” Dash laughed. “Besides…It's almost over and I think you and I both would rather do something else right now. Even if we did stay, I don‘t think you would let me focus either.”

With a wide smile, Fluttershy got up and hugged her tight. “Thank you thank you, Dashie!”

“Yeah yeah yeah…” Dash rolled her eyes before kissing her cheek again. “Whatever…let’s just go.”

They made their way to the cloud stairs and descended while walking side by side. Dash put their new scarves around Fluttershy’s neck before giving her a wet wiggle of her nose against her cheek. When they exited the stadium, there was not a single pony else around the ticket booth, which was refreshing since the line that early morning nearly suffocated them.

At a leisurely pace, they walked across the surface of the clouds, each mare full of butterflies in their stomachs. The small flight to Dash’s home took only a few minutes, but it had felt like ages since they were back in each other’s hooves.

When Dash had opened the front door, Fluttershy already began to kiss the back of her neck. When she turned to face her, they stood in the threshold with the door wide open. Dash giggled before tilting her chin up so she could gaze into those beautiful coastal green eyes. Each time she got a good look at Fluttershy’s adorable features, she felt a part of herself melting away in her gaze. As if she had read Fluttershy’s mind, Dash planted her lips firmly against hers before closing the door behind her.

A tiny squeak escaped Fluttershy’s mouth before she leaned farther forward. The overwhelming flavor of the inside of Dash’s cheek was driving her curiosity and desire to higher levels. This earned a small gasp from the yellow mare whose eyes opened very wide in surprise.

It was no use trying to slow anything down. That strange little switch that resided in Fluttershy’s mind had already been flipped. What she wanted right now was going to be hers and that was final. Dash thought for a second before settling on the notion of letting the little yellow mare have her fun. Besides, it was pretty cute when she got like that. Maybe a little different from what she was used to, but definitely cute.

A loud giggle escaped Dash’s mouth as she felt herself being pushed back onto the floor. Without missing a step, Fluttershy began trailing little kisses down her neck to her upper tummy.

“Ok, Shy…You got me.” Dash giggled harder as she felt warm wet kisses being places against her sides. She began to stroke Fluttershy’s mane and added, “Do you want me to just sit here?…This feels pretty one sided, you know?”

She stopped, quickly sporting an even darker shade of red. “I am…s-sorry…I should probably stop. You’re probably tired, and I didn’t even ask….I’m probably making you feel uncomfortable right now…and I‘m getting too carried-”

Dash laughed hard and pulled her gently by her mane so their faces were less than an inch apart. “Fluttershy, if I get to come home to this everyday, then you can do whatever you want.” She emphasized the word ‘whatever’ in long drawn out syllables.

Without hesitating, Fluttershy returned to kissing her tummy and neck. Each little giggle, moan, and squeak Dash made were reaffirming tones of her success. She wanted desperately to make her dear Rainbow Dash happy, and she understood that one of the best ways to do that was give Dash all the pleasant sensations she could hope for.

“W-Whoa…” Dash closed her eyes and laid her head back on the floor. She could feel a new suckling pull against her shoulder, and it was glorious! Her hooves wrapped around Fluttershy’s head, pulling her hard against herself. “Geez, Shy….” Trailing her tongue from her navel all the way up to her neck gave Fluttershy the reaction she was hoping for. Dash shivered hard while gasping before trying to catch her breath. “Oh my gosh…that’s too much…”

She stopped and looked up at her. “I’m so sorry…are you ok?” Fluttershy asked.

“Whew…” Dash exhaled slowly. “Y-Yeah….Just…wasn’t expecting that…” She titled her head forward to kiss her little mare’s nose. “Um…can…you keep going?”

“Yes…of course.” Fluttershy smiled bright at her before nuzzling her nose deep into her neck. It tickled, and Dash giggled hard while kicking her hind hooves around in the air.

“Heehee…S-Shy…that…oh gosh…that tickles!” She squirmed around on her back hard enough for Fluttershy to stop, but before she was given a second’s rest, she felt a gentle little bite on her tummy. “Aw yeahhhh….” She sighed as a big smile spread across her face. “Just….like…that…”

Obediently, Fluttershy did as she was told. Her smile bite had moved up to the base of her neck before moving back down against the middle of her tummy. Her teeth gently grazed the surface of her coat before sinking down hard on one soft spot just above her hips. When Dash felt this, her whole body trembled, her voice quivered, and she arched her back.

“Oh my gosh….Seriously, Shy…I can’t even think.” Dash whimpered most brashly between words. Her hooves covered her face as her breathing became more labored. With Fluttershy positioned herself between her legs with her head hovering over her tummy, it was hard to look at her. When she felt as if she should look down, she both saw and felt wet little kisses against her inner thighs. “Shy?…..S-Shy!”

She looked up, her head between her knees. “Um…..Yes, Dashie?” She asked, clearly focused on something else.

“What are you….Why are you….” Dash choked on her words that were only made more obsolete by her crackly voice. She certainly had not expected little Fluttershy to be so eager, but far be it from her to refuse such treatment.“….Nevermind….just please keep going.”

Without responding, Fluttershy pressed her nose right above Dash’s labia. A musky sweet erotic aroma assaulted her nose as she stared with wide eyes at what lay before her. A line of something wet was already making its way down Dash’s thigh, so she stuck out her tongue to catch up to it before it got away.

With a loud groan, Dash arched her back as far as she could. That probably wasn’t meant to feel like a tease to her most intimate spot, but it sure was almost painful in a way to have to bear such an unsatisfying rush. “Fluttershy…you’re killing me!” She squeaked.

That had not been her intention, but now understanding the error of her mistake, she obliged by sticking her nose right up against the swollen clit. She felt Dash’s knees hug her ears and watched as her body jerked. To have such power and control over another pony like this almost scared her, so she decided to move quickly to not cause Dash anymore unnecessary grief. Her tongue abruptly slid forward, and Fluttershy could feel the twitching wet folds of Dash's pussy lips slide across the surface. The taste was surprisingly pleasant, but she couldn’t care less. Dash seemed to be very much enjoying herself, and that was all that mattered. She just wanted her blue marefriend to feel happy.

And happy she was. With her hooves pulling on her own mane, Dash squealed hard up at the ceiling. It was embarrassingly brazen of her to do so. Forget what might happen if somepony could hear her. The fact that Fluttershy was nearly assaulting her in a such an inexperienced but powerful manner was enough for her to keel over in embarrassment. Her mind raced, and if she didn’t finish soon, she was be stuck like this for longer than needed be. The sensations that clouded her mind were becoming too unbearable without a release soon.

Dash brought a hoof over her mouth, bit down as hard as she could, and threw her hips up. Something overwhelming just happened to her, as if a big wave just swept over her. Her body fell limp against the floor, and before she knew it, she began to roll onto her side panting like she had just got punched.

In a dazed stupor, Fluttershy raised her head and tried to blink. Her eyes had instinctively closed when her cheeks felt a splash of something hot against her face. She brought a hoof to her face, wiped her eyes, and realized what had happened. Her entire face and the cloud floor was covered in clear fluid that reeked of a candy like smell she couldn’t identify. As the reality of her actions became more clear, her face turned stark red.

Dash wheezed one last time before looking up at her. “Geeeeez, Shy…whoa…” She coughed.

“Oh…my goodness!” Fluttershy began to panic. “I am so so so so sorry! Are you ok?” It looked to her like she had wounded Dash somehow.

With a heavy sigh, Dash slowly sat up and nodded her head. “Yeah…I’m ok…I think…” Her mind was slowly coming back to normal senses.

“Dashie, I’m so sorry. I didn’t know what I was doing!”

“You…got carried away. That’s what you were doing.”

“I did?” She honestly didn’t know what she was doing. This was still very new to the both of them, and neither had any experience other than how they assumed this kind of thing worked. “I’m….sorry…”

When Dash heard the shame in her voice, she quickly wrapped her hooves around her and squeezed. “Hey, no none of that crying. It’s totally cool. I’m fine, see? No harm.”

“Are you sure? It looked like I hurt you.”

Dash laughed. “Hurt me?…That’s…one way of putting it.” She gave her wet nose a kiss. “Whoa, Shy…you’re face…is…uh…Hang on.” She slowly licked her own juices off of her cheek to give them a taste. “Meh…”

“It’s ok. Don’t worry about me…” Fluttershy covered her face quickly. “I can go…um…wash up…” She was about to get up from the floor to go to the bathroom to wash herself off, but Dash wouldn't release her from her hug.

“You’re not leaving.” Dash said in a matter-of-fact tone. “You can’t just start something like this out of the blue and not let me have my fun with you.”

She gasped. “W-Well…I…um…”

Dash licked her face a few times and smirked. “C’mon, Shy. You got to play with me, now it’s my turn.”

“If…you say so…”

“I do say so.“ She began to lap up her wet face. “Let me clean you up.”

Fluttershy leaned back away from her, but Dash just pulled her closer. With rough force, she began to slide her tongue up and across her cheek before doing the same thing on her shoulder. Tight little gasps came from the little mare, and Dash smirked as she gently nudged her to her fluffy cloud bed. She laid her down on her back on her big rainbow blankets.

With wings spread out wide, Dash straddled on top of her before planting a wild wet kiss on her lips. As soon as she felt contact, she forced her tongue deep inside her cheek. Fluttershy’s hind hooves wrapped around her waist as she felt Dash slowly bring her hoof down to the base of her tummy. She wanted to squeal, but almost unable to even breathe, the little noise she made was almost completely muffled.

Dash began rubbing her outer thigh as she broke the kiss. A line of mixed saliva connected their mouths as each mare panted. “Holy hay…” Dash laughed. “…I never thought kissing would be this much fun.”

Fluttershy tried to shield her face with her mane. “…me too…”

With a firm bite, Dash latched onto her shoulder while gently tugging. When she heard Fluttershy squeak, she gripped both of her thighs with her hooves before spreading them open wide. This sudden exertion was very surprising for the little mare. She didn’t know what to think as Dash quickly positioned her head inside her inner thighs.

Dash didn’t even take a second to dive right in. Her tongue circled her outer lips furiously as she gripped Fluttershy’s knees before placing them on her shoulders. Her nose mashed gently through her labia lips as she exhaled hot air.

With her back arched and her eyes tightly closed, Fluttershy gripped the blankets with her hooves as hard as she could. She could feel a powerful rush of heat envelope her body, but before she could even get used to her new position, Dash had already started grinding her chin with her tongue flicking up and down.

“A-Ahhhh…Ahhh!” Fluttershy nearly screamed up at the ceiling.

Feeling almost winded, Dash came up for air and looked up with a wide grin. Her entire nose was sparkling wet. “Easy there, Shy. I’m still getting warmed up.”

“D-Dashie…” Fluttershy stuck out her hooves wide towards her. “Please…just…kiss me…”

She laughed. “Ok, sure.” After moving up forward, she gave Fluttershy a small kiss on the cheek before roughly sucking on her lower lip. Her hoof began to grind up and down between Fluttershy’s legs as she pressed herself against her.

Each little moan Fluttershy breathed into her mouth became longer and louder. If Dash didn’t time her approach perfectly, she might miss her window. Once she was sure Fluttershy was at her peak, she broke the kiss before aggressively pulling her hind hooves over her shoulders again. Fluttershy felt her lower body being completely raised up straight into the air, and Dash buried her muzzle between her thighs.

Fluttershy’s body trembled violently, only steadied by Dash’s hold on her hips. After pulling a pillow over her face, Fluttershy screamed as loud as she could, which really wasn‘t all that loud. Dash could barely keep Fluttershy's body from shaking too much as she held her breath. Then, all the sudden, the yellow mare reached her peak.

As abruptly as she had pulled her up, Dash let her go. Fluttershy felt herself plop down onto the bed with happy blue mare in front of her. Her entire face was not only covered and dripping down her chin, but even her mane was darkened wet and sticky. Fluttershy's climax had been so intense that Fluttershy coughed when she gasped for air.

“Whew!” Dash exclaimed with a triumphant expression, cum covered face. “That was…more…than I thought it would be.” With her chest heaving up and down, Fluttershy closed her eyes to focus on her breathing. When Dash realized how much she had been affected, she asked, “Are you ok?” A simple nod was all she received.

Very slowly, Fluttershy sat up. She buried her face into Dash’s chest and felt her mane getting stroked as she finally caught her breath. “…T-Thank you…Dashie…” She said as she panted for breath.

“It’s, you know…only fair, right?” Dash laughed, trying to angle her wet face away from Fluttershy’s mane. “…You…really surprised me today…”

Whatever she was saying to her, Fluttershy could just barely understand. Her whole body still tingled and radiated from the most intense climax she had ever experienced, and right now, she didn’t wanted anything to ruin her afterglow. Her eyes slowly fluttered open, and she looked up at her. “…I love….I love you…”

Dash cocked her head and smiled at her before gently laying Fluttershy down on her back. “I know…I love you too." It was strange, but it felt surprisingly easy to say that. "Here, lay back and try to breathe, ok?”

She did as she was told, raising her hooves over her head to allow more air to pass in and out of her chest. Physical exertion was not something she was accustomed to. Dash was used to it, but it was clear Fluttershy was not that type of mare. Feeling kind of guilty for pushing her to her limits, Dash made a mental note not to be so rough. She was relieved to see her returning to her normal self after half a minute of fanning her with her wing.

They spent the next half hour cuddling in quiet on Dash’s bed. It had been years since Fluttershy relaxed on a bed in the clouds, and she had forgotten how incredibly comfortable it felt. With Dash on her back and her hooves behind her head, Fluttershy lay with her head on her shoulder.

There had been this rather irking question in the back of Fluttershy’s mind that persisted to bother her as she lay on her love’s shoulder. What were they now? Surely they were still friends, but was there perhaps something more now? Did Dash see her as more than something other than friends, or was their relationship nothing serious? She certainly saw themselves as marefriends, but did Dash?

She hoped that it was the former rather than the latter. A great enduring love had grown quickly in her heart for her blue energetic best friend. There was also a pitted hole in her life that she desperately wanted to fill with the love of somepony else. For many years, she had resisted the urge to find somepony, anypony really, to love her. She wanted her first real relationship to mean something so much more than just a mutual understanding.

Did Dash feel the same way? As much as she wanted to ask, she also felt afraid and scared to dare contemplate the question. If she did ask, it might ruin what they already have going.

Before she could muster up the courage to ask, Dash opened her mouth. “Hey…Shy, there’s something…we should talk about.” She sounded hesitant like they had just met each other. Regardless of their hoof-wrestling only a half an hour prior, coming back to reality to discuss important issues still makes things awkward.

She nuzzled her face deeper into Dash’s neck. “…Yes?”

“Well…Are we…like, you know…” She trailed off as she began to pet Fluttershy’s mane. “…together?”

Fluttershy gasped before looking up at her, quite surprised to be beaten to the punch. “W-What?”

“I’m…I’m only asking…because…you know, I‘m just sort of curious.”

“…I love you.” Fluttershy quickly blurted out.

“T-That was…random.”

“I love you…”

“…I…love you too, Shy.” Dash gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead.

Fluttershy sighed as she tried to formulate what she wanted to say. “…Dashie…I…I do…want us to be together…”

With near gleeful excitement in her voice, Dash asked, “Really? You mean it?”

“Of course I do.” They both sat up as Fluttershy brought their hooves together. “…I was really hoping you do too.”

“Totally!” Dash quickly cleared her throat. “I mean, yeah…sure. I want us to be…like that…if you want. Sounds…cool. I mean, if that‘s how you feel, then yeah…I feel the same way…”

Fluttershy leaned against her, nuzzling her cheek against her chest. “Oh Dashie…I could die right now and be happy forever…”

“Whoa, hey now, don’t say stuff like that.” She tilted her chin up to her. “…I know you’re just joking, but seriously. Don’t say that kind of thing.”

She looked down ashamed. “…I’m sorry…”

“It’s ok…” Dash quickly hugged her tight. “…I just…care about you too much…and-” Fluttershy started to cry out of the blue without any warning whatsoever. Instead of building up to tears, she burst. Dash quickly began to rub her back. “Come on, Shy. Why are you crying? What’s wrong?” Fluttershy adamantly shook her head before pressing her face into Dash’s neck. “That’s a load of ponyfeathers. Something is bothering you. Please just tell me. Please? You’re sort of scaring me. What did I do?”

Fluttershy shook her head again. “No…You didn’t do anything….” She sobbed. “…If…I told you…then you’d hate me.”

Dash pushed her away and tilted her chin up to her before kissing her firmly. This instantly stopped Fluttershy’s crying. After a couple seconds, Dash finally pulled away from her. She could feel her lips starting to go numb for the first time that day, but her kiss was meant to comfort the poor mare, nothing more. “Fluttershy…I promise that I will never hate you. Whatever it is, you can tell me. That’s what I’m here for.”

She sighed as she wiped her eyes and slowly nodded her head. “…Remember…a couple days ago when you came by…and there were too many animals at my home?”

“Yeah.” Dash nodded. “It was crazy. Why? Did something else happen I didn’t notice?”

She shook her head. “…That day…was…a very…bad day…”

“Well, yeah it was.” Dash cocked her head to the side. “I don’t see what that has to do with anything.”

Fluttershy buried her face into Dash’s neck again to cry even harder. Content to wait it out, Dash hugged her and rocked her back and forth for a long while until she calmed down. “Shh….it’s ok…I got you…I won’t let anything bad happen to you. Take your time…” At some point in her life, Dash had been told by somepony about how emotional the after-sex moment could be. However, this was a lot more than what she could have imagined.

Fluttershy nuzzled herself deep into Dash’s embrace before she felt ready to continue. “Dashie…There’s something I’ve been…thinking about…for a while now…”

“Thinking about?” Dash picked her up and placed her in her lap. “…What were you thinking about?…Is it bad?…Is it-” Dash gasped, eyes growing as wide as dinner plates. “No…Fluttershy, tell me you’re not serious….”

“I’m…so…sorry…” She squeaked.

“Fluttershy!?” Dash began to panic. “Really?”

She slowly nodded while staring down. “…Yes…”

Dash hugged her as tight as she could. “…Why didn’t you tell me sooner? We could have worked this out together.”

“I…didn’t want to worry you…”

“Oh my gosh, seriously?!” Dash fell backwards onto the bed, pulling her down. “I’ve always been you’re best friend. How could you even think that that?”

“I’m so sorry…” Fluttershy curled up on her tummy and covered her face.

Dash sighed. “It’s ok…we don’t have to talk about it anymore. I don’t blame you or anything. Don’t worry…I’m here now, and we can work on this together.” She tried to choke back a tear of her own as she ran her hoof down Fluttershy’s back. “I’ll see you through this…I promise.”

“Dashie…I’m so sorry…I know I should have told somepony sooner. I’m so stupid…I can’t even take care of myself…All my little animal friends should hate me…”

“You stop talking like that right now!” Dash turned her face towards her own, and Fluttershy saw an angry tear in the corner of her eye. “If you ever say something like that again, I will take you to the best restaurant in Manehatten and order everything on the menu. I’m not kidding!”

Fluttershy wiped her eyes and nodded her head with small giggle. “…Ok…for you, Dashie…for you…”
