The Belle tolls for love

THE BELLE TOLLS FOR LOVE

ONE DRINK TOO MANY

A white unicorn sat at her desk listening intently to her teachers words as she always had as Cheerilee taught the class basic mathematics today and the dark purple earth pony was nearing the end of her lecture as she turned to face the class now.

“Now remember class, this evening is the annual summer sun celebration school party. If you haven't done so yet, please give me your permission slips to attend the event before you leave the classroom or I’m afraid you won't be able to attend.” Cheerilee said in a chipper tone she always had when she spoke just before the school belle rang.

“What do you mean you won't be able to come to the party tonight?” Sweetie Belle said incredulously to her two friends who looked at her with dismayed expressions as they left the school building.

“Sorreh Sweetie Belle, but Applejack needs meh to help her get ready for the summer sun celebration and since we are in charge of the food and all, she needs all the help she can get.” Applebloom replied in a matter of fact tone.

“Don't even get me started on trying to get my parents permission...” Scootaloo replied in a annoyed tone.

“Then I won't go either. No point in going if my two best friends aren't with me.” Sweetie Belle replied with a warm smile.

“Ya miss the train to smartville or somethin? That thar party is one of the most fun a filly our age can go to! You'd be plum silly to shrug it off like that!” Applebloom exclaimed in a semi-shocked tone.

“Yeah, I heard that last year, they had a Pegasus pony there doing magic tricks and that's way past cool since unicorns are usually the only ones able to do that stuff!” Scootaloo exclaimed chiming in after Applebloom.

“You sure?” Sweetie Belle asked in a unsure tone. She didn't want to go to a party without her friends but if they were okay with it she wouldn't mind as much.

“Ah'm more than sure. Go on and have fun!” Applebloom exclaimed with a wide grin.

“Just make sure you give us all the details when you get back okay?” Scootaloo said as she waved to Sweetie Belle and walked down the path to her home as did Applebloom.

“I sure will!” Sweetie Belle called back and gave a small squee of excitement. She was very happy she could still go and that her friends were okay with it to boot.

THAT NIGHT...

Sweetie Belle walked into the school now and was taken back by the sudden change in scenery. Instead of the usual lines of desks, there were snack tables filled with drinks,sweets, and party favors. Ribbons now hung from just about every part of the classroom now and fillys and colts alike were talking and dancing in the middle of the room as upbeat pop music roared throughout the room.

“Wow!” Sweetie Belle exclaimed as she looked around. This was nothing like she expected it to be. The unicorn now could see why her friends insisted she go now and boy was she glad they did!

“And then I said, is that a cutie mark or a tar stain?” An all too familiar voice asked aloud to which Sweetie Belle scowled as she looked to her left to see Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon talking so loudly they could clearly be heard over the music. She decided to ignore them however and went over to see Cheerilee whom was sitting in a corner watching the fillies and colts dance.

“Hey Cheerilee! Why aren't you dancing and having fun?” Sweetie Belle asked in a curious tone which snapped the earth pony from her gaze to look at the filly.

“Oh, I never dance at these parties. I'm a terrible dancer anyways.” Cheerilee replied with a nervous smile.

“Nonsense! Come on, dance with me! Have some fun!” Sweetie Belle exclaimed enthusiastically taking Cheerilee by the hoof to the middle of the room and began to dance with her.

“Oh dear, I'm not sure I can Sweetie Belle. This is so embarrassing.” Cheerilee said as she looked around herself blushing.

“Embarrassing? Your in a school surrounded by fillies and colts. What's so embarrassing about that?” Sweetie Belle asked as she continued to dance with the dark purple earth pony.

“It's not as simple as that Sweetie Belle.”Cheerilee replied in a slightly quieter tone.

“Not sure i'm getting the big picture here.” Sweetie Belle replied in a confused tone.

“I'm parched, could you get me and you some drinks?” Cheerilee asked making a quick attempt to change the subject.

“Okay. Go take a seat miss Cheerilee, i'll be right back!” Sweetie Belle exclaimed as she rushed over to to punch bowl and scowled upon seeing Diamond Tiara and Silver spoon in front of it.

“What do you want blank flank?” Diamond Tiara asked with a sneer.

“I was going to get a drink for me and my friend.” Sweetie Belle replied still scowling at the two fillies with a subtle wink.

“Humph, then take these. We don't need your blank flanky hooves touching the punch bowl.” Diamond Tiara said with a wink of her own as she handed a cup carrier to the filly with two cups of punch in it with her mouth.

“Thanks...I guess.” Sweetie Belle replied through gritted teeth as she carried the drinks over to the table she saw Cheerilee at.

You think she suspects anything?

Not a chance! This is going to be the best prank ever!

Sweetie Belle sat down at the table and took a drink out with her hoof as did Cheerilee and both began to drink from them taking small swigs at first. “So why did you say it was embarrassing to be dancing in front of everypony?” Sweetie Belle asked curiously.

“It's nothing, really.” Cheerilee replied with an uncomfortable look and took another drink from her cup.

“Well it must be something. Oh I got it! Your afraid that the fillies and colts with tell their parents if they see you dancing badly?” Sweetie Belle asked as she took another drink from her cup.

“Yes, of course, heh.” Cheerilee replied forcing a lighthearted laugh at first which turned into a full one much to her own shock. “Hmm, that's odd. I'm feeling a little dizzy. Must be all the flashing lights and music. I'm going to go outside for some fresh air.” Cheerilee replied and downed the rest of the glass before walking towards the door but she seemed to be having trouble making it there as she stumbled slightly which caused Sweetie Belle to give a worried glance, down her own glass, and follow her.

The wind felt great against the unicorn's face as it blew past. Though now she was starting to feel a little dizzy herself and for some strange reason, in a very goofy mood. “Wow, what was in that punch Cheerilee? It's making me feel funny. Hehe!” Sweetie Belle called out to the dark purple earth pony whom turned around and looked at her behind the school now.

“I suspect somepony spiked our glasses of punch with alcohol.” Cheerilee replied as she stumbled over to Sweetie Belle.

“Is that what as in there? Wow, I want some more! Haha!” Sweetie Belle exclaimed as she stumbled along and fell to the grass laughing loudly. “I wonder where those two snotty fillies got that stuff?” Sweetie Belle asked with a light hiccup a few moments after laughing.

“Sn-Snotty phillies?” Cheerilee asked as she slurred slightly now. She was beginning to regret downing the entire glass of punch now though her mind was quickly becoming cloudy.

“Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoony! Who the hay else would I be talking about?” Sweetie Belle replied with a smirk as she rolled onto her back and looked up at the night sky.

“I'm going to marchin in there and...” Cheerilee began to say only to trail off as she looked at Sweetie Belle now on her back with her underside showing.

“March in there and what? Thank them?” Sweetie Belle replied with a smirk then noticed Cheerilee staring at her. “Why you staring at me like that for? Do ish got something on mysh belly?” Sweetie Belle asked as she slurred her words.

“No, I was justsh admiring you is all.” Cheerilee replied as she stumbled over to Sweetie Belle and fell haphazardly onto the grass next to her.

“Admiring me? Ha, you are a sillysh pony missh Cheerilee!” Sweetie Belle replied with a giggle.

“Maybe ish am, but that doesn't make you any less good looking.” Cheerilee replied with a smirk.

“Not so baftish looking yourself.” Sweetie Belle replied with a smirk as she scooted over next to Cheerilee and began to run a hoof along her underside much to the earth pony's shock.

“Wh-what are youish doing?” Cheerilee asked in a unsure tone as the filly's hoof ran along her underside.

“Something ish always wanted to try ever since I saw my sister doin it with Applejack.” Sweetie Belle replied with a giggle as her hoof traveled lower and lower until...

Cheerilee's eyes shot wide in alarm as the unicorn's hoof ran over her mound and began to part her lips, but between the cloudiness of her mind and the waves of pleasure surging through her body now as Sweetie Belle's hoof began to probe her, any and all resistance she had was lost as she arched up and moaned out. “F-Faster Sweetie Belle...” Cheerilee managed to moan out to which the filly began to thrust her hoof in and out of her now soaking wet slit at a much faster pace much to Cheerilee's delight.

“Wow, I've been hoofing you for less than a few minuets and your soaking wet.” Sweetie Belle remarked as she continued to pleasure her teacher.

“H-How do you know so much?” Cheerilee managed to ask between moans. Her climax was coming on quickly and she was finding it harder and harder to maintain a conversation now.

“Twilight's library.” Sweetie Belle replied simply as she began to lower her head towards the earth pony's wet treat and began to lap at her clit as she continued to hoof her which drove Cheerilee wild and over the edge as she arched up and humped into the unicorn's hoof as her vagina clamped down on Sweetie Belle's hoof, began to spasm, and gush all over filly's hoof, and the grass.

“Me next!” Sweetie Belle exclaimed as she climbed on top of Cheerilee and stopped just short of her chest,turned about face, lifted her tail, and lowered her dripping cunt down within reach of Cheerilee's mouth.

Cheerilee's first instinct was to give her the same treatment but realized far too quickly that her hoof would rip the filly's cunt apart. So instead she put a hoof on each side of the filly's hindquarters, and dove her face into the Sweetie Belle's wet treat earning a high pitched moan from the filly.

Unlike the earth pony, this unicorn didn't hold back in letting it be known she was enjoying herself as she gave loud moans and hugged Cheerilee's underside hard. “N-Not so loud. Somepony might hear us.” Cheerilee's said in a panicked tone as she ripped her face away to say this before she returned to feasting on the filly's puffy white pussy lips and inner walls.

Try as she might, the unicorn couldn't contain her cries of pleasure so she looked for something to fill her mouth with so-to-speak so she couldn't be heard. Due to her size difference with the mare she couldn't reach Cheerilee's slit, but she could reach her teats. Upon locking her lips onto a single teat Cheerilee moaned into Sweetie Belle's slit and continued to eat her out feeling her own pleasure rise up again as the unicorn sucked her left teat and even bit down hard on it as she continued to moan loudly but was muffled thanks to her mouth being around Cheerilee's teat.

Being the inexperienced filly she was it didn't take Sweetie Belle long at all to reach climax at which point she bit down as hard as she could on Cheerilee's teat which caused the earth pony's own climax to hit her due to the stimulation from the unicorn's teeth and mouth.

By the time both ponies had rode out their respective climaxes, Cheerilee's chest and face was soaked and the grass between her legs had a decent sized puddle in it. But neither could move to clean up their messes as the two passed out on the spot nearly simultaneously and snored the night away unknown to anypony as the party went on and ended that night.

THE NEXT MORNING...

Cheerilee and Sweetie Belle's eyes opened about the same time as the two somehow managed to snuggle one another in their sleep. At first nothing happened, then as if the two had been zapped by a bolt of electricity the two let out a panicked scream as they jumped away from each other looking panicked and scared.

“Wh-what the hay happened last night?!” Sweetie Belle asked in a panicked tone as the images of last nights events passed through her head like a blur. Though a blur it was more than obvious what the two had done.

“Dear Celestia, what have I done?! I've slept with a filly!” Cheerilee exclaimed in a panicked tone as she stood to all four hooves and began to pace back and forth.

“How the hay could this happen?!” Sweetie Belle exclaimed in a panicked tone.

“I-I don't know!” Cheerilee exclaimed in the same panicked tone until it came to her. “Wait, you said that Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon gave you those drinks last night right?” Cheerilee asked still looking panicked and trying to figure out what happened.

“Y-Yeah! Do you think those two had something to do with it?” Sweetie Belle asked in a worried tone.

“Y-Yes, I think they spiked our drinks with Alcohol. And judging by how drunk the drink got me, I’d assume they were a very strong brand.” Cheerilee remarked then looked at Sweetie Belle with a panicked expression. “Are you feeling okay? Nothing is wrong?” Cheerilee asked in a concerned tone as she looked over Sweetie Belle now.

“I-I'm fine. What's wrong now?” Sweetie Belle asked in a fearful tone thinking something worse had happened.

“I was just worried about you. After all, if that alcohol was strong enough to get me drunk, then it was clearly strong enough to do a number on you and possibly worse sense you are much young and smaller than me.” Cheerilee said in a concerned tone as she continued to look over the filly.

“I-I'm fine. Really!” Sweetie Belle stuttered at which point Cheerilee stopped looking over her, took a deep breath and sighed loudly.

“I-I can't believe I slept with you though. I thought I had control over my urges...looks like being drunk taught me otherwise.” Cheerilee remarked then let out a sigh.

“Wait, so that's the real reason why you were embarrassed and nervous around the others at the party last night?” Sweetie Belle said in a shocked tone upon realization of this statement.

Cheerilee looked at Sweetie Belle and sighed. “Yes. I've always been attracted to those younger than myself. Listen Sweetie Belle, you can't tell anypony about what we did last night. It could cost me my teaching license. I'm not supposed to have relationships with students.” Cheerilee replied and looked about herself.

“Duh! I'm not even a full grown mare and I know this. Don't worry. I won't say a word.” Sweetie Belle replied and sighed as she looked about herself. “I wonder what time it is.” Sweetie Belle remarked thoughtfully as she looked up at the sky which shown the sun just rising into the sky now.

“I'd take a guess and say sometime around six or seven in the morning.” Cheerilee replied looking up at the sky now as well. “I guess I better take you over to your sister's house. Otherwise questions will arise as to where you were last night.” Cheerilee said after a few moments of her initial reply, stood to all four hooves and began to walk away at which point Sweetie Belle go up herself and followed her.

“So umm, just how much of last night do you remember miss Cheerilee?” Sweetie Belle asked with a blush.

“Enough to haunt me for the rest of my life.” Cheerilee replied simply.

“Was I that bad?” Sweetie Belle asked in a depressed tone as she flattened her ears.

“N-No, you were great, I mean, ugh, I can't believe I’m being asked by a filly how well she performed during sex.” Cheerilee replied with a facehoofing gesture as they continued down the path towards Rarity's house until she came to a dead halt at which point Sweetie Belle did as well. “Wait, why are you so curious anyways?” Cheerilee asked as she turned to look at the unicorn.

“Well, umm, even though I was sort of out of it, I kind of enjoyed it. Is it bad that I enjoyed it?” Sweetie Belle replied with a blush.

“Well, no. after all, all fillies and colts experiment at one point with each other in their lives. It is after all how we learn when not in the classroom.” Cheerilee replied, sighed, and scratched the back of her head nervously.

“So umm, can we do it again sometime?” Sweetie Belle asked in such a meek tone with a cute, yet innocent expression that would give even Fluttershy a run for her money.

If Cheerilee's jaw could physically hit the ground, it would have at this point. “Of course not! Do you realize just how much trouble I would get in if we were caught?” Cheerilee replied after a few moments having managed to recover from her stunned state at the filly's outlandish question.

“If we are caught!” Sweetie Belle countered with a mischievous grin.

“If? If is good...” Cheerilee replied thoughtfully until she shook her head in an attempt to shake the idea from her mind. “No,no,no! I won't succumb to this! I'm taking you back to Rarity's and we will pretend this never happened, is that clear young filly?” Cheerilee replied in a stern tone.

“Okay...” Sweetie Belle replied in a depressed tone. True as it was that she was tempted to blackmail her teacher into this, she didn't have it in her to do such a thing.

The two ponies we now just outside of Rarity's home and by the looks of it the mare wasn't awake as of yet. “I'll do the talking Sweetie Belle, you just sit back and agree to whatever I say, okay?” Cheerilee said as she rose a hoof to knock only for the filly to stop her. “Something the matter?” Cheerilee asked curiously though she had a good idea of what it was.

“It's just that, well, your the first pony to take an interest in me like that. What is only because you were drunk that you even did anything with me or was it...?” Sweetie Belle said trailing off feeling her words falter.

Upon hearing this Cheerilee gave a heavy sigh, knelled down, and placed a hoof on the filly's cheek looking into her eyes. “Listen, It's hard for you to understand I know, but what a pony does when they are drunk is not always what they would do if they weren't. I would be lying my flank off if I said I didn't enjoy last night, but we can't do this again Sweetie Belle. Maybe in a few years when your older, but for now, lets just pretend this never happened okay?” Cheerilee said in a soft tone.

“Okay.” Sweetie Belle replied followed by a sigh.

Cheerilee then stood back up only for Sweetie Belle to tap on her leg again which caused the earth pony to look down at her again.

“Umm, can I at least get a kiss?” Sweetie Belle asked in a meek tone that would once again give Fluttershy a run for her money.

Cheerilee looked at her for a few moments longer before she looked at the door again then back to Sweetie Belle, then back to the door again and once again at Sweetie Belle. “Oh, what the hay...” Cheerilee remarked thoughtfully, knelled down once again, and locked lips with the filly.

From the moment the earth pony and unicorn's lips locked a flame ignited between them and it took every fiber of Cheerilee's willpower not to tackle the filly here and now as she broke the kiss, gave a soft smile, and knocked on the door. “Why the hay did I just do that for?” Cheerilee thought to herself in a annoyed tone. She didn't expect the filly to kiss her so passionately though, but regardless, she now found herself tempted to take the filly up on her offer. The temptation vanished though like a gust of wind blowing a pile of test out of sight as Rarity's face emerged from within the door frame.

“Sweetie Belle! There you are! I was so worried about you!” Rarity exclaimed as she hugged her younger sister tightly.

“I'm fine, really! Stop hugging me so tightly! Your going to smother me to death!” Sweetie Belle's muffled voice could be heard exclaiming from behind the mare.

“You see, Sweetie Belle wasn't feeling well and so I took her to my doctor to get cheeked out.” Cheerilee explained just as she had rehearsed it in her mind.

“Why didn't you bring her back home after that or at least contact me?” Rarity asked in a curious tone as she looked over at the earth pony.

“Well I would have of course, but speaking as by the time we got out of the doctors office it was well past two in the morning, I felt it would be best to let her stay with me for the night and contact you in the morning.” Cheerilee replied quickly having expected this kind of response.

“I see. Well thank you for taking care of my little sister Cheerilee. I certainly hope she wasn't any trouble.” Rarity replied with a warm smile.

“No trouble at all.” Cheerilee replied with a warm smile of her own.

“Well, thank you again.” Rarity replied then looked at Sweetie Belle. “Lets get you inside and make you some breakfast.” Rarity said to her little sister as she turned around and walked inside.

“I'll see you in a few hours Sweetie Belle.” Cheerilee said to the filly who nodded silently as the door closed behind her.

“Which is just enough time for me to get these nonsense ideas out of my mind.” Cheerilee remarked quietly to herself as she headed back for the school.

So what's next?

Next, I make you into a full grown mare with this little toy right here...

Oh Cheerilee...

Oh Sweetie Be-RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!

Cheerilee's day dream was cut short by the ringing of the school bell as she mentally kicked herself for allowing herself to slip into such a day dream in the first place. Fillies and colts filed into the classroom along with Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle and Applebloom who seemed to be arguing as they walked in.

“I already told you. Nothing happened. The party was fun, but nothing special happened.” Sweetie Belle insisted in an annoyed tone.

“Ah beg to differ, ah've been hearin all mornin about the stuff that happned during the party last night and you have been actin a might odd since we met this mornin. Ah'm beginnin to wonder if ya went at all” Applebloom replied in a curious tone.

“Yeah, just what were you up to last night if you weren't there?” Scootaloo chimed in at which point Sweetie Belle's face went slightly pale as she gave Cheerilee a passing glance before once again insisting she went to the party and nothing happened that was too grand.

Cheerilee then stepped up to the three fillies and put on her best smile. “Listen up you three. Lets not get into any fights now. Sweetie Belle was at the party last night and I can vouch for this since I was there as well.” Cheerilee said trying to keep a strait face as she said this.

“Hey Miss Cheerilee, where did you go last night? Last I saw you left the party followed by Sweetie Belle.” A colt said at which point Cheerilee's chest turned ice cold.

“Wait, you two left the party? Why?” Scootaloo asked curiously.

Sweetie Belle and Cheerilee both gave each other a fleeting panicked look before the earth pony regained her composure. “I simply left to get some fresh air and Sweetie Belle was a dear and followed me to make sure I was alright. We came back in though later that evening I assure you.” Cheerilee said after a few moments trying her best to keep a strait face once again and then recalled why she had done so in the first place.

“Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, front and center!” Cheerilee exclaimed in a stern tone at which point the two fillies walked to the front of the classroom.

“Y-yes miss Cheerilee?” Diamond Tiara asked in a worried tone with an expression to match it.

“You two fillies are in serious trouble. You spiked Sweetie Belle and my punch last night. Thankfully Sweetie Belle was alright, but I will be having a stern talk with your parents after school.” Cheerilee said looking at the two with a glare whom were now looking pale and worried.

The rest of class went on as normally as any could despite the awkward start to it.
Sweetie Belle however could not help but stare at Cheerilee in a dreamy kind of fashion. Something had changed in her. Though she wasn't quite sure what it was yet, she knew it had something to do with Cheerilee. The young filly couldn't help but look at her teacher now in a whole new light. Every move she made, the way her flanks swayed as she walked to one end of the chalk board and to the other, her smile, it was enough to drive the filly crazy though she somehow managed to keep it together despite the unfamiliar feelings she was now feeling towards her teacher.

the school bell had once again rung signaling the end of class at which point all the fillies and colts filed out of the classroom with the except of three fillies.

“I'll be right behind you guys, I just need to ask Cheerilee a few things okay?” Sweetie Belle said in a chipper tone.

“Alright, see you in a little bit.” Scootaloo replied and ran out the door followed closely by Applebloom.

“Is something the matter Sweetie Belle?” Cheerilee asked curiously.

“Ever since that kiss you gave me this morning, I can't stop thinking about you...” Sweetie Belle said in a sad tone as she looked at the earth pony whom was now sitting down on the floor in front of her.

Cheerilee gave a heavy sigh and motioned for the filly to sit down next to her. “I'm sorry, I shouldn't have kissed you. I should have known it would give you the wrong idea.” Cheerilee said in a soft tone as she felt the guilt swelling up inside her.

“Is it? I don't know what I’m feeling, but it doesn't feel wrong. I just...” Sweetie Belle began to say but trailed off trying to find her words before continuing. “Whenever I’m close to you, I feel safe. Like I know nothing bad will ever happen to me when I’m close to you...” Sweetie Belle said in a soft tone as she nuzzled against Cheerilee's side.

“Sweetie Belle, I think you might be jumping the fence a little. You can't possibly feel this way after one night of messing around and a kiss.” Cheerilee replied trying to figure out the best way to let the filly down easy.

“Well, maybe it's been a little longer than that...” Sweetie Belle admitted as she shifted herself slightly in a nervous fashion.

“Wait, you've been feeling this way about me a lot longer?” Cheerilee asked in a stunned tone.

“Y-Yes.” Sweetie Belle replied with a slight stutter.

“How long?” Cheerilee asked curiously.

“S-Since last summer during that pool party.” Sweetie Belle replied in a soft tone.

Upon hearing this Cheerilee gave a heavy sigh. “Listen, I know how you must be feeling right now, but the feeling will pass. You're young and you're growing up, but we can't be a couple Sweetie Belle, surely you understand why.” Cheerilee replied in the kindest tone she could muster.

“But I want to be! I want us to be a couple, I want us to be together! I thought that if I asked Diamond Tiara to spike the drinks it would-!” Sweetie Belle exclaimed on as she began to ramble on only to cut herself off mid-sentence, gasp in shock realizing she had just blurted out something hadn't meant to, and slam both hooves over her mouth as Cheerilee's expression went wide with shock.

“You asked Diamond Tiara to spike our drinks?! Sweetie Belle, how could you even do such a thing?!” Cheerilee asked in a shocked yet upset tone as she looked at the filly who was now cowering slightly.

“I didn't know that would happen! She told me that it would just make a pony act funny and tell the truth! She never said it would make me and you act like grade-A goofballs! I just wanted to know how you felt about me!” Sweetie Belle exclaimed defensively in a panicked tone.

Upon hearing this Cheerilee's expression lightened greatly as she let out a sigh. “So, you never intended to get me drunk?” Cheerilee asked in curiously to which Sweetie Belle shook her head.

“I wasn't even supposed to drink the stuff. She told me before the party that mine didn't have any of the stuff in it.” Sweetie Belle replied and let out a sigh.

“Well at least I know you didn't get me drunk on purpose, but Sweetie Belle, you should know better than to trust a filly who has a track record of picking on you.” Cheerilee replied in a gentle yet scolding tone.

“I know, but I just had to find out ya know?” Sweetie Belle replied and nuzzled against her again.

“I understand, but Sweetie Belle, don't make me say this like a broken record. You know we can't be together.” Cheerilee replied though the more she said it, the more she wanted to say the exact opposite. That kiss she gave her now haunted her thoughts and just like a ghost every time the memory came to mind, it sent a shiver down the earth pony's back along with feelings she was constantly trying to fight off.

“We could keep it a secret, no pony has to know.” Sweetie Belle replied in a soft tone as she nuzzled her affectionately once again only for the earth pony to stand up and look down at her.

“Sweetie Belle, we've been over this! If we were caught, I would stand to lose a lot more than my teaching license!” Cheerilee exclaimed dramatically.

“I know, but if we were smart about it, we could keep a secret.” Sweetie Belle replied with a half smile.

“And prey tell, how would we do such a thing? Not that I’m agreeing to anything.” Cheerilee replied in a mildly curious tone. “ I wonder if this could work? She may have a point, if we are smart about it we could-What are you doing Cheerilee?! Why are you even hearing her out? You should just send the filly on her way and be done with it!” Cheerilee thought to herself dramatically as she mentally kicked herself as the proverbial angel and devil argued on her shoulders as the earth pony waged war within her mind unknown to the filly.

“Well, summer is coming up. You could tell my sister that you are keeping me over for summer school to help me keep my grades up.” Sweetie Belle said in a suggesting tone.
“That just might work.” The proverbial devil said to her.

“No! If she is caught with Sweetie Belle, it would cost her more than her teaching career!” The proverbial angel countered.

“Can we at least try? If things don't change by the end of summer we can call the whole thing off.” Sweetie Belle said with a puppy dog look that would give the mare a heart attack if it were psychically possible due to how cute she was at the moment.

Both the proverbial angel and devil stared at her, gripped their chests and fell on each of her shoulders. “You can't fight that much cuteness...” The proverbial devil said in a strained tone.

“She wins, she wins! Just make her stop being so cute!” The proverbial excitement in a strained tone.

Cheerilee gave a heavy sigh, facehoofed, and groaned upon seeing this look. “Fine...you win.” Cheerilee said in a defeated tone at which point Sweetie Belle hugged her tightly.

“Thank you, thank you! You won't regret it!” Sweetie Belle exclaimed with joy and ran out the door.

“What in Equestria have I got myself into?” Cheerilee asked herself dismally as she shook her head slowly, walked to her desk and began to grade papers...
