Set Up

Chapter One: Setup

Applebloom lifted the rather heavy crate full of apples and loaded it into the cart. Once it was resting comfortably on the bed, she pushed that crate to the back so there would be more room. However, she found she couldn’t push the crate back any further, as there was no room left in her family’s travel cart.

She chuckled, “Well AJ, I guess we’re full!”

Her older sister Applejack smiled proudly, “I reckon we are Applebloom, good work.”

“Thanks sis,” Applebloom smiled.

Applejack made a quick inspection of the cart before walking back to her sister. It was a clear, sunny, and particularly warm day in Ponyville. The Apple family, at Sweet Apple Acres, was preparing for their annual trip to Baltimare to make some important apple deliveries. Granny Smith and Big Macintosh had already gone, and now it was time for Applejack to leave. The trip was going to take a good three days there and back, so someone was going to have to stay behind to take care of the farm. And that job fell once again to Applebloom. The last time this had happened, Applejack’s overprotectiveness led to Applebloom getting in trouble with a Chimera. This time however, Applejack had full confidence in her youngest sister.

Taking a deep breath to calm her nerves Applejack turned to her sister, “Alright, sis, I’m ready to go. Are you sure you’re up for it this time?”

“Applejack,” Applebloom moaned, “You said I could!”

“I know I know AB, but- look, taking care of the farm for an afternoon is one thing. But you’re going to be taking care of the farm for three days, are you really sure you want to take this up alone?” Applejack asked.

“But I won’t be alone, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo are gonna hang out with me during those three days,” Applebloom smiled.

“Did you clear…?” Applejack started.

“Yeah, I did. Rarity’s cool with it, and so are Scoots’ parents,” Applebloom replied.

Applejack begrudgingly nodded, “Well alright then.”

Applebloom beamed as Applejack boarded the cart. Then Applebloom remembered something important, “Oh AJ, you promise not to come back and check on me like last time?”

Applejack chuckled, “I promised already didn’t I, Sugarcube?”

Applebloom scowled, “You said that last time, I want you to Pinkie Promise me!”

Applejack sighed, “Alrighty then, Sugarcube. Cross my heart, hope to fly, and stick a cupcake in my eye.”

Satisfied, Applebloom nodded, “Mighty thanks, sis, I won’t let you down!”

“I certainly hope so,” Applejack said, “Well I’m off; see ya in three days Applebloom.” And with that, Applejack started the motorized wagon and was off.

Applebloom waved as she watched her sister head off until she was out of sight. The moment Applejack was out of sight, Applebloom raced off to gather her two best friends. She wasn’t lying when she told her older sister that the Cutie Mark Crusaders were gonna be with her, she just hadn’t told them that yet. As she ran, she felt a gentle breeze brush against her grayish olive coat and through her cherry red hair.

Certainly she wasn’t surprised at the sensation; she had her pink tank top tied up over her still developing chest and her shortest pair of ripped jean shorts on. It was certainly impossible for the farm girl not to be feeling a gentle breeze. At least she knew that this was going to be a fun weekend.

Meanwhile, across town, sitting at her favorite coffee shop, Cheerilee sipped at her caramel macchiato in somber silence. She had only gotten the drink about a minute ago but she felt like she had been holding and drinking it forever. Despite her outward calm, inside she was a complete wreck.

She was dressed in her business suit and skirt, having just come from a meeting of the Ponyville school board. The meeting hadn’t been very long, nor was it important enough for her to meet with any of the high level officials. But it was important for her; she had accumulated far too much vacation time. Shows what dedication can give a woman: no sick days and no vacations, just work ‘til you drop.

And it wasn’t like she hated her job; she loved being a schoolteacher. It was one of the few things in her life she actually enjoyed. The only other thing she enjoyed was staying in Ponyville, the one town in Equestria that was as lively as Las Pegasus. There was just one major problem with living here: she couldn’t get a date. The fact was the very teaching gig that she enjoyed so much also relegated her to un-dateable status. Single parents usually avoided her because she might be teaching their kids, and non-parents left her alone because they tended to be ex-students. And there was the more basic problem that teachers usually made for bad dates.

She had no idea why, it just was. As she sat there, moping over her coffee, she gently rubbed her pale, greyish rose hair. The minimum she could take was a three day vacation, three days with no date and a minimal social life for a woman of thirty. Lyra and Bon Bon were out of town on a trip to the Griffon Empire and Derpy was too busy traveling with her doctor friend. Cheerilee resigned herself to the fact that these would be three very lousy days.

But just as she was about to take another drink of her coffee, fate handed her an interesting proposition.

“Miss Cheerilee?” asked a very familiar voice.

Cheerilee looked up to see the purple alicorn Twilight Sparkle. She gave a confused smile, “Oh Twilight, what are you doing here?”

Twilight laughed, “Just picking up a small coffee from this place. These guys have the best mint coffee in town.”

“Well, I won’t deny that,” Cheerilee said.

“What are you doing here?” Twilight asked after a short pause.

Cheerilee sighed, “Trying to wash down a bad day.”

Twilight raised an inquisitive eyebrow, “Wouldn’t a stop at Changing Times work better for that?”

“It would, but it also wouldn’t be professional,” Cheerilee sighed before she motioned for Twilight to join her.

Twilight sat down across from the teacher. “So bad day in class or bad day at the board?”

“The outfit’s kind of a giveaway, don’t you think?” Cheerilee replied tiredly, “Yes, I was summoned by the Ponyville school board today. I’ve got too much vacation time.”

“Oh that’s great!” Twilight beamed, “What are you planning on doing?”

Cheerilee sighed in response. “Well, that’s the thing. I don’t have anything to do.”

“Really,” Twilight stated in surprise, her eyebrow rose again. “No date, no plans nothing?”

Cheerilee shook her head, “Everyone’s out of town, and as unbelievable as it seems I’m probably the only woman in town no one wants to go near.”

Twilight snorted, “One of two, actually, but I see your point.”

“Oh, sorry, I keep forgetting of your new title.” Cheerilee said sheepishly.

Twilight waved her hand, “I don’t mind. Anyway, it’s a shame you don’t have anything to do. I mean, what’s Big Mac doing?”

Cheerilee gave her an unamused smile, “He and the rest of the Apple Family are out of town for the weekend. Besides, Mac’s nice but he’s not my type anymore.”

Twilight gave her a sympathetic look. “Oh, I’m sorry.”

“It is okay, blame that damn love potion spell,” Cheerilee grimaced. “Anyway, enough about poor old me, what are you up to, princess?”

“Well,” Twilight said, not too keen on leaving the original topic so easily, “I’m packing to go away for a few days. I’m sorry if that seems mean given the circumstances.”

A pause took over between the two. Twilight obviously looked uncomfortable even talking about vacation plans in front of Cheerilee. And Cheerilee knew why, but honestly she just wanted to have conversation so she pressed forward.

“Oh, I see, where too?” she asked.

“A town just outside of Tall Tale called Holmesdale; it’s a gated vacation community right on the west coast,” Twilight answered.

“A weekend trip,” Cheerilee stated.

“About that yeah,” Twilight answered, “I’ve never actually been to the place, but Vinyl recommended it to me a while back.”

“Oh, how is Vinyl? I hear she and Octavia Melody are an item now.”

“So the tabloids would have you think,” Twilight giggled, “Yeah she’s doing fine. Her career’s kicking off and she’s really happy with things.”

“She’s still in Canterlot, then?” Cheerilee asked.

“And proud of it,” Twilight smiled.

Cheerilee nodded. “So this place you’re going to, is it fun?”

“From what Vinyl told me,” Twilight said, “Like I said, I’ve never been there before.”

“When are you leaving?” she asked.

“Tomorrow morning,” Twilight answered.

Cheerilee nodded. “What about Spike?”

“He’ll be visiting the Crystal Empire. They love him there, you know,” Twilight replied.

Cheerilee nodded. “Okay, I’m sorry for prying about your vacation plans, Twilight.”

“No, no, no you have every right to ask,” Twilight assured her. There was another pause from Twilight as she seemed to ponder something. Really ponder, so much so that Twilight actually scratched her head. Cheerilee knew that meant Twilight was seriously debating an issue but just didn’t know how to address it. Finally the princess seemed to come to a conclusion. “Look, why don’t you come by the library later tonight.”

“Oh, Twilight, I don’t want to impose,” Cheerilee replied.

Twilight waved her hand, “It’s no problem. We can talk more then.” As she slowly got up, she said, “Does seven work for you?”

Cheerilee smiled, glad to have something to do other than mope around her house. “That works just fine, Twilight. And thank you.”

Twilight nodded and departed. Cheerilee returned to her drink with a warm smile. It may not be a three day dinner, but at least it was a nice gesture from a good friend. As she took another sip, she idly noted the Cutie Mark Crusaders in the corner of her eye, running out of Sugar Cube Corner.

“Are you serious?” Scootaloo cheered as they all ran, “Are you serious?”

“Three days?” Sweetie Belle added just as enthusiastically, “You got the farm to yourself for three days?”

“Exactly!” Applebloom cheered. “Ain’t it something great!?”

“Oh, definitely!” Sweetie Belle responded.

The three girls ran from Sugar Cube Corner as fast as their legs could take them back to Sweet Apple Acres. Their first stop was going to be the CMC clubhouse and then to the farm.

“Wait a minute, what’s the catch?” Scootaloo asked catching up with Applebloom.

“There’s no catch this time, I get the farm to myself for three days and three nights.” Applebloom explained somewhat smugly.

“Oh come on, AB,” Sweetie Belle shouted from behind them, not buying Applebloom’s misinformation. “Even I know Applejack wouldn’t let you off the hook that easily.”

Applebloom didn’t answer until the girls reached the CMC Clubhouse. When she did, the trio was already out of breath. Hopefully this would allow her to convince them without any argument.

“Well, the only thing is you two have to be with me those three days,” Applebloom answered, grinning.

“Ha! I figured there was a catch,” Scootaloo declared triumphantly.

“Does that mean we have to do chores?” Sweetie Belle groaned.

“Yeah,” Applebloom admitted sheepishly. “But it honestly ain’t that much, girls.”

Scootaloo looked at Sweetie Belle. “Could be a good way to get our cutie marks.”

Sweetie Belle rolled her eyes. “I figured you’d go there, Scoots. Well, I think Rarity would enjoy a weekend without me, she’s got a big order coming in.”

Applebloom beamed, “Oh girls, thank you. I promise it won’t be boring. Plus, we get the entire farm for ourselves this weekend.”

Scootaloo snickered, “Can’t imagine what we’d do.”

Soon enough the girls were off towards Sweet Apple Acres. Applebloom went over the rules of the farm: No drinking, no parting, and no funny business with the animals. Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle took the rules easy enough. They honestly didn’t want to ruin Applebloom’s best chance at becoming independent. And they worked hard at getting the farmhouse cleaned, trees watered, and pens cleaned out.

By the time the sun had set, the three girls were flopped on the grass, exhausted.

“Boy, I didn’t realize that working on a farm was actually this hard,” Sweetie Belle said, wiping her brow.

“I have to agree,” Applebloom sighed, “I keep forgetting how tough it gets without Applejack or Big Macintosh.”

Scootaloo shrugged. “At least this is one heck of a workout.”

Both Sweetie Belle and Applebloom nodded in agreement. Pulling out the checklist of chores, Applebloom checked the last item. “Alright Crusaders, one last job: we gotta clean out the food troughs.”

Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle looked at each other awkwardly. Applebloom smiled as she led the trio over to the troughs. They were pretty decently sized troughs, able to feed five pigs at a time. Lifting them on their own would be next to impossible for Applebloom and her friends. Thankfully, the Apple family had thought ahead when they built them: the troughs were hooked up to rollers that allowed them to roll over easier. Moreover, a small channel was built on the opposite side of the troughs to allow the food to flow away easier.

It was all part of the cleanup system Big Mac designed in case he was never around to do any of the heavy lifting. And Applebloom was thankful that they had built it.

“All that we gotta do is push it?” Scootaloo asked.

Applebloom nodded. “Yep, it’s that easy.”

“Okay, that doesn’t seem too hard,” Sweetie Belle said.

“Once we do, step on that pedal and the slop will just flow away.” Applebloom explained, pointing to a pedal at the end of the channel.

“Okay, Cutie Mark Crusaders, let’s do it!” Scootaloo declared loudly.

The trio took hold of the trough and began to push. But the thing wouldn’t move. So they pushed harder, and harder, and harder. But despite all their best efforts, the trough wouldn’t budge. Finally the CMC gave it their all. But still the trough would not move. Breathing heavily and extremely frustrated, Applebloom took a jab at the metal trough.

“Darn it, move will you!?” she exclaimed, flopping onto the ground again.

“Not so easy, huh?” Scootaloo snarked.

“Shove it, chicken, I ain’t happy,” Applebloom snapped at her friend.

“I’m with her,” Sweetie Belle said. “I didn’t expect it to be this tough.”

Applebloom righted herself and looked the trough over. Nothing was blocking it and all the nuts and bolts were in place. So why didn’t it move? Scratching her head, Applebloom then gently leaned on the trough and found out what was wrong. Unfortunately, the Crusaders had failed to notice the channel by their feet. In short, they were pushing the wrong way. And poor Applebloom found that out the hard and disgusting way.

The poor girl fell forward, thankfully not hurting herself on the trough or the channel, as the trough rotated beneath her weight. Before she could land, the through tipped over and dumped its load of slop all over her, dirtying her clothes, hair, and big bow. All this happened within a quarter of a second, so fast that none of the girls had time to react. The only thing Applebloom could do was yelp when she landed on her chest.

“Oh goddess,” Sweetie Belle yelped.

“Applebloom, are you alright?” Scootaloo shouted.

The youngest member of the Apple family groaned as she pulled herself out of the mess she was in. She wasn’t hurt, thankfully, but she was sore. When she managed to pull herself back onto her feet, her two friends were thankfully there to assist her. But the damage had been done: not to the trough, the channel, or the food, but to her clothes. They were, simply, ruined.

“Well this sure is nice,” Applebloom groaned, looking over the mess.

“You’re not hurt are you?” Sweetie Belle asked a note of worry in her voice.

“Just mah pride,” Applebloom sighed, “This ain’t anything a good shower can’t clean up.”

“Good, because after that little show I think I’m going to get a hernia. I’m sorry, Applebloom, but that was too perfect,” Scootaloo snickered, clearly struggling to keep her laughter contained.

“Oh, sure, laugh it up, Scoots,” Applebloom said in exasperation.

Scootaloo waved her hand as the laughter subsided. “Oh come off it, aren’t you farm girls used to getting dirty?”

“Yeah but not this dirty,” Applebloom snapped back.

“Alright, fine, but you still have to admit the comedic value of what you just did,” Scootaloo chuckled. “And it’s even funnier since you came out of it unharmed.”

Behind Applebloom, Sweetie Belle burst into light giggles. “Yeah, thinking about it, it is pretty fun. Sorry, AB.”

While Applebloom did want to laugh, the situation didn’t call for it. The last time she had gotten into a mess with her family not home, Applejack hadn’t let her out of her sight for a month. Thankfully, AJ was nowhere to be seen and Applebloom was in the clear. Though she still felt yucky.

“I’m gonna go take a shower,” Applebloom said.

“Probably a good idea, you’re gonna stink soon,” Sweetie Belle said.

“Hey Sweetie, that should give us time to go get our things,” Scootaloo said, “I think we can let Apple-klutz to clean up.”

“That’s mean, Scoots,” Applebloom complained.

“Payback for the chicken comment,” Scootaloo grinned, sticking out her tongue.

That at least made Applebloom smile. But not in the way Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle thought, well not entirely. She was happy her friends cared enough about her when she fell, though the fact she was covered in stinky and dirty pig food was a source of great amusement for them made her less happy. And that was something that Applebloom figured she’d pay them back for.

The duo walked off to get their sleeping bags and a change of clothes. Applebloom, meanwhile, headed inside. Instantly shedding her clothes she put them in the wash and set the washer on. Then she wrapped a towel around her to cover her still developing body and headed up to the shower. It didn’t take long for her to get the water temperature right and step in.

“Ah, that feels good,” Applebloom sighed as the water ran over her.

She grabbed the soap and began to clean herself up. Thankfully, she had gotten inside rather quickly after the accident so the dirt and muck simply slid right off. As she cleaned, Applebloom ran through a number of scenarios to get back at the girls. None of them were hurtful, those were reserved for Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, but they would be playful acts that would even the score card. Or at least get an apology.

But when she finished her shower, she couldn’t think of anything. She grabbed a clean towel and began drying herself up. All the while she continued to think of some way to get some payback at Scoots and Sweetie Belle. Nothing came to her that was fitting enough. She could get the two in a similar muddle by having them drain the water tower, which was always a messy process even when Big Mac did it. But the tower was simply filled with water, and just didn’t feel quite enough.

Once she finished drying herself off, Applebloom exited the bathroom and began walking to her room. As she walked, she gave a soft chuckle. She was planning revenge against the Crusaders as if Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon were responsible. This was Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle, something extremely innocent would be enough. Though she didn’t know what she’d do, she knew she’d do something to embarrass them.

Then her thought process was interrupted when she heard a knock at the farmhouse door.

“Darn it,” Applebloom sighed, “they got here faster than I thought.” The youngest of the Apple clan made her way down to the main floor and up to the door when she noticed something off.

She couldn’t quite put her finger on it until she looked around and noticed the reflection in a nearby mirror. “Oh, right, I’m naked.”

She had forgotten to wrap the towel around her. It was for decency’s sake, for herself and for the others in the household. But today, and for the next three days, the house would be mostly vacant of family. And with that fact present, Applebloom had simply forgotten to cover herself. And now she was standing near her front door completely exposed, a simply embarrassing position. However an embarrassing position that she could use to her advantage. It was definitely a worth reply to the earlier laughter, and that’s what Applebloom was going to do.

“Alright,” she said softly, “I won’t put my clothes back on. That should freak out the girls enough to give me an apology for earlier.” She grinned evilly as she put together her plan. Another knock came at her door, and Applebloom took a deep breath as she placed the towel on the chair near the door.

“This shouldn’t take too long,” she muttered to herself. And with a deep breath of courage, she opened the door. “Hey, girls!”

“APPLEBLOOM!” Scootaloo shouted as she averted her eyes, “WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!”

“You’re Naked,” Sweetie Belle squeaked.

Applebloom faked shock. “I am?” she said innocently. “Are you sure? I could have sworn I was wearing something.”

“Yeah, yeah, real funny, Bloom,” Scootaloo said bringing her gaze back to Applebloom, though trying really hard to keep her eyes locked on AB’s face.

Both Sweetie’s and Scootaloo’s faces were beet red as they tried to keep their gaze focused on Applebloom’s face. Applebloom meanwhile did everything she could from not looking smug; her plan had worked.

Finally, she let her self-control slip. “Oh, well look at that, I am naked. Guess I forgot to put clothes back on after I screwed up with the pig trough.”

“Wait a minute,” Scootaloo said, “Was this your payback?”

“Yeah, for you girls laughing at me,” Applebloom said stepping back and grabbing the towel and wrapping it around her. “You girls caught me coming out of the shower and I didn’t have much time to think of something so I went with it.”

Sweetie shook her head as she and Scootaloo walked into the main living room. “Pretty lame AB, if it was me I would’ve milked it for the three days we’d have this place.”

“Yeah,” Scootaloo said, “I’d pay to have that happen.”

Then an idea hit Applebloom, one that hit Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle got as well a second later. “Like, a bet?”

“Yeah, that’s not a bad idea. Applebloom, I bet you that for the three days we have this farm to ourselves, you cannot wear any clothes!” Scootaloo said.

Applebloom bit her lip as a sudden wave of nerves struck her. She had been fine welcoming her friends to her home naked as a prank. But having to do so for three days and nights actually scared her and made her feel a little self-conscious. She felt the towel constrict a bit around her naked body. She couldn’t really say no for, pride’s sake if nothing, but if she said yes… well, who knew what might happen.

She was about to say no outright when Sweetie Belle chimed in, “That’s it Scoots? We can’t have poor AB run around this place nude alone.”

“Yeah, that’s right!” Applebloom hastily agreed. “If I gotta do it you girls do it with me.”

Now it was Scootaloo’s turn to be self-conscious. “Wait a moment; wouldn’t that be a little….weird?”

“Oh, yeah,” Sweetie Belle blushed, “I just realized that. We’d all be naked in front of each other.”

“What, it’s not like we’re gonna screw each other,” Applebloom said dismissively. “That would make things too weird. Tell you what, Scoots, we got three days to ourselves, let’s do this: Day one it’ll be just me.”

“I’ll join you on day two then,” Sweetie Belle said, nodding.

“And you’ll join us on day three,” Applebloom nodded. “And all we gotta do is house chores, after that we can put our clothes back on. First one who either refuses to strip or puts their clothes back on without finishing loses.”

Scootaloo thought about it. “Okay, I like the sound of that.”

“Deal!” the other two shouted.

Cheerilee sighed as she wrapped a towel around her hair. The shower was barely done and already the teacher was feeling depressed again. Her apartment was quiet, too quiet. The entire place was an unwanted reminder that she had nothing better to do this weekend. She stepped out of the shower, her modest body covered by a grey towel.

For these reasons, Cheerilee was looking forward to tonight. It had been a while since she’d actually had dinner with Twilight; in fact the last time they did was the night after the big talent show. It would be fun to have dinner with Twilight. After walking into her bedroom, she shed the towel and began to pull out a comfortable set of clothing for the dinner. It wasn't anything too fancy, just a pair of jeans and a T-shirt; this wasn’t a date, just dinner.

Soon after she walked out of her house, right on time. The sun was setting to the west and the twilight sky looked rather beautiful. A gentle breeze gusted over her as she walked from her house to the library. By this point in the day things were winding down in Ponyville, most of the shops had closed up and every pony was sitting down for dinner.

Cheerilee walked past the coffee shop, the outside tables occupied by several couples enjoying their dates. The romantic scenes reminded the school teacher of her loneliness. Brushing it off, Cheerilee resumed her walk towards the library with haste. As she arrived at Golden Oaks, she could see that Twilight had the interior completely lit up.

The faint scent of cooking food entered her nostrils and Cheerilee smiled. Pressing upon the door, Cheerilee made her way into the library. She knew Twilight and Spike were expecting her so there was no real reason to ring the door. Plus, this was a library; it was public property, so she didn’t feel guilty for not ringing the doorbell.

When she entered the main floor, Cheerilee couldn’t find either Twilight or Spike. Cheerilee then made her way towards the stairwell that led to the house portion of the library. As she drew nearer, she heard a soft hum in a feminine voice. That gave her all the clues she needed to know that Twilight was in fact home.

However, as she was now entering personal living quarters, she had to announce herself.

“Twilight, Spike,” she called up, “I’m here.”

“Come on up!” Spike called back in reply.

Cheerilee walked up the stairs. Then when she hit the top step, she turned pale.

“Oh Sweet Celestia!” she yelped. In front of her, lying on a couch reading a book was a very nude Twilight Sparkle.

Twilight gasped the moment she spotted Cheerilee and threw a blanket over herself. “Oh Cheerilee! I’m so sorry!”

“No, no,” Cheerilee said, “If I’m interrupting something…”

“Oh dear Celestia no,” Twilight said as she sat up, her cheeks flushed “That was just one of Daring Do’s books.” She held the book up to prove it. “Daring Doo and the Kingdom of Lost Compass,” Twilight said.

Just then Spike walked in. Thankfully he was fully clothed.

“Spike,” Twilight glared, her wings flaring despite the blanket covering herself. “Why didn’t you tell me Cheerilee was here?”

“I thought you heard her,” Spike said, “Besides, she is on time.”

“Still a little reminder would’ve been nice. You know what I like to do in my spare time,” Twilight said, her tone reproachful.

“Oh right, I kinda forgot you do that,” Spike said awkwardly. “Anyway, dinner’s ready.”

Cheerilee smiled at that, though she still felt very awkward. “Oh, that’s good. Shall we?”

“Yes, lets,” Twilight said. “Spike will show you to the dining room. If you’ll excuse me, I have to put clothes on.”

Cheerilee meekly nodded and followed Spike into the dining room. Spike had set out a lovely dinner of hot pumpkin soup with cheese and wine, and in no time at all Twilight walked in dressed in a shirt and pants.

“Oh, Spike, this looks delicious,” Twilight said a delighted tone in her voice.

“I completely agree, Spike, did you cook this yourself?” Cheerilee asked.

Spike nodded before taking a bite of one of his gems. After a moment of chewing, he swallowed enough to courteously talk. “The only thing I’ll legitimately complain about Twilight is that she can’t cook.”

Twilight gave a grinned sheepishly. “And whenever I try things really go badly.”

“So I had to learn how myself. Can’t really complain, because when I do well I really do well,” Spike boasted.

Cheerilee laughed and then took a spoon full of her soup. Amazingly, it tasted as good as it looked. The trio continued to eat in silence for another moment or two, but as they did Cheerilee felt a little uncomfortable. No less than five minutes ago she had seen Twilight naked and reading Daring Do. While she was uncomfortable asking about it, she couldn’t get that fact out of her mind. Plus she did feel bad for intruding on whatever it was Twilight was doing.

“Um… Twilight, I do want to apologize for what happened earlier,” Cheerilee said.

Twilight waved it off. “Oh, don’t worry about it. I get so wrapped up in books sometimes I completely forget what’s going on. You didn’t interrupt any major scenes, so it’s fine.”

Cheerilee was taken back for a second by Twilight’s comment. “Well, if you don’t mind me asking, if the scene wasn’t anything important why were you reading it nude?”

Twilight blushed slightly. “Oh well… you see… um…”

“She’s a nudist,” Spike said, like he was talking about the weather or the price of apples.

Cheerilee gasped slightly. “Oh my, Twilight, I didn’t know. I hope I’m not making you uncomfortable right now by keeping you…”

“It’s okay, seriously,” Twilight sighed, waving a hand. “Besides, I would’ve put something on for dinner anyway.”

Cheerilee nodded. “Okay, that’s good, and are you a, uh, nudist Spike?”

Spike shook his head no. “Tried it for a few weeks, just not for me.”

“I see,” Cheerilee answered. She then turned to Twilight, who was in the middle of sipping some wine. “May I ask when you became a nudist, Twilight? I only ask because the last few times I’ve stopped by here you weren’t so…” Cheerilee trailed off, vaguely indicating with her hand.

“Clothing free?” Twilight finished, “Well actually Fluttershy got me involved in this about a year ago when she took me to the Soft Sun’s Pool Party over in Stableville. To be honest I was nervous at first, but after a while I came to enjoy it and I haven’t looked back since.”

“And all your friends are comfortable with it? Besides Fluttershy I mean,” Cheerilee asked ignoring the fact that she just learned that Fluttershy of all people was also a nudist.

Twilight’s eyes shifted, “Well… not all of them know about it, only Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy.”

That gave Cheerilee a bit of shock. “Really, I always assumed you were so open with your friends.”

“It’s not that I don’t want to tell them as there’s nothing wrong with nudity. It’s not about sex, more just living your life without clothes. And that’s….well look at it this way: Rarity is too cultured to really be comfortable with it and Applejack and Rainbow Dash are too hardheaded to differentiate.” Twilight explained. “Pinkie only found out the same way you did, coming in when I was undressed, only she did it by appearing behind a bookcase.”

The trio chuckled at Pinkie’s expense. Cheerilee then sighed, she could see Twilight’s predicament. Hell, even she was uncomfortable even sitting across from Twilight despite Twilight being fully clothed. She glanced at Twilight, with curiosity this time.

“Is it fun?” Cheerilee asked absentmindedly after taking another spoonful.

Twilight looked up. “Well that depends on your immersion, really, but for me I find it completely relaxing.”

“So you spend your entire days around this library in the nude?” Cheerilee asked.

Twilight nodded, “Only time I’m clothed is when I go out, deal with customers, or have friends over. And once a month I go with Fluttershy to her nudist party in Stableville.”

Cheerilee gave a very accepting nod. “Okay, well that’s certainly a weird life you live, Twilight, if you don’t mind me saying.”

Both Twilight and Spike gave a chuckle. “That’s nothing,” Spike said, “You should hear where Twilight’s going this weekend.”

“Yeah, you mentioned that when we met earlier,” Cheerilee said, “Holmesdale was it?”

“Yes, actually, and since you now know my secret I feel I should add that it’s a nudist vacation spot,” Twilight said, waiting for a reaction.

Cheerilee merely looked on inquisitively. “So what will you are doing there?”

What Cheerilee was expecting was a completely lewd answer from Twilight, either for laughs or seriousness. It would just fit with the oddity of this whole conversation. But what she got was something different.

“Well, Vinyl’s gonna be performing there on Saturday and Sunday so I’ll be attending her concerts. Other than that, maybe take a run at the beach, try their tennis courts, and maybe the theme park,” Twilight answered, “But they also have wine tasting, antiquing, and one of the best spa centers in all of Equestria that’s not in Manehattan.”

Cheerilee gave a shocked look. “That… actually sounds like a normal resort. And they do all this…?”

Twilight nodded with pride, “Yup. I was supposed to go with Fluttershy but Angel got sick and she had to cancel. So I actually have a ticket open.”

“Who were you going to invite?” Cheerilee asked, taking a big sip of her wine.

Twilight grimaced as Spike silently got up and left the dining table after finishing his meal. She gave Spike a passing glance before looking back at Cheerilee. “Well I was going to ask Pinkie Pie…”

Cheerilee nodded. Then a thought popped into her head. Whether it was the wine or her loneliness that made her ask the question she was about to ask, Cheerilee didn’t know. But it happened.

“Well, I have nothing important to do over the weekend…” she started. “Maybe I could come with you.”

Twilight gasped in surprise. “Really? Are you sure?”

“Do I have to be nude?” she asked.

“Well…not really, these guys don’t require people to be nude, but… you might enjoy the experience a bit more if you were,” Twilight answered. “But I won’t force you.”

Cheerilee nodded, “Well, if nothing else, it’ll give me something to do over my vacation.”

“That’s a good attitude to take,” Twilight smiled. “Now let’s finish this meal.”

Cheerilee nodded and began to eat again. At that point she began to realize something: she was going to be around other naked people, possibly thousands. It was a bit unnerving, especially considering that nudity was a bit of a taboo in Equestria. But then again, when she was a teenager she was into some weird stuff. Maybe a good trip of exposure might be a nice experience.

Plus Twilight said she’d experience it better if she was naked. Cheerilee wasn’t self-conscious; in fact she was proud of her body. Maybe actually joining the others would be a great boost to her confidence. And who knows, maybe that could help her find some romance. So right then and there, she told herself she would spend those three days nude.

Author's Note

I honestly got this idea, as you see in the discription, from two different sources for two different stories. Reason why i made them one big story is becasue doing two seperate would be rather boring really, becasue when it comes to nudist stories, its the same damn setup. So i decided I might as well combine the two just to make it interesting.

Day One (Part Two)

Day One (Part two)

The Cutie Mark Crusaders made their way to the zip line as the sun was starting to set. There was just enough light in the day for them to actually use the zip line, but it was also dark enough for Applebloom to move about freely without being clearly seen. And just in case, she had kept her nightgown close in the backpack that also held the gear. All the while she felt the enjoyable rush of running around outside in the nude.

Once they reached the zip line, Scootaloo went into the trees to hook everything up. Sweetie Belle turned to her friend, who was pulling the gear out.

“You look like you’re comfortable,” Sweetie Belle stated.

“Oh I totally am. You have no idea how fun this is,” Applebloom replied, a wide grin on her face.

“By the looks of it, it must be pretty amazing,” Sweetie Belle said, a thoughtful look on her face. “By the way, are you gonna hook yourself up or do you want me to help?”

“Nah, I got it,” Applebloom responded. “Besides, it’d be weird.”

“It’s not like I’m gonna feel you up, AB,” Sweetie Belle said, frowning slightly.

“True, but honestly, despite how fun this is I’m still fighting my nerves. Not to mention this is still awkward and I don’t want to push it,” Applebloom grimaced as she handed Sweetie Belle her gear.

“Well, uh, awkward as it is, I think it’s actually kinda brave of you, Applebloom,” Sweetie Belle smiled with pride.

Applebloom felt some of the tension in her shoulders ebb, though not all of it. “Thank you. And don’t worry, you’ll be joining me tomorrow.”

“Oh, definitely,” Sweetie Belle said. “Can’t let you have all the fun.”

“Hey, if you two ladies are done down there,” Scootaloo shouted from above them. “Could you toss me up a harness?”

“No problem!” Applebloom called up, tossing the aforementioned item to Scootaloo. That done, she began to hook herself up to her own harness. The straps felt a little rough against her bare fur, but not, she concluded after a few experimental tugs, rough enough to chafe. Once it was tight enough, Applebloom then climbed up the ladder with Sweetie in tow. Soon enough, Scootaloo had all of them hooked up to the zip line and they were ready to go. Just one more question to ask.

“So do you guys want to go down all at once or individually?” Scootaloo asked.

“I don’t know about the rest of y’all,” Applebloom answered. “But at least for my first run I’d like to go down solo.”

“Okay, that’s cool,” Scootaloo said, nodding. “What about you, Sweetie Belle?”

“I’m with AB, solo first please,” she answered.

“Right, well, AB, you ready?”

Applebloom had already been attaching all the buckles, and was quickly hooked up. “Ready.”

Scootaloo put her hands on her friend’s back, tentatively at first but then with more firmness. “Here goes.” And with a gentle push, Applebloom was off.

She had ridden the zip line dozens of times over the years, and each time it had been a thrilling experience. This time, however, was the first time she was doing it nude, much like everything else she had done that day. The wind blasting against her body, swirling around her and rustling her fur unimpeded by clothing was a thrill. She felt the straps catch her weight and rub against her exposed body, but even that felt somewhat enjoyable as it didn’t catch any clothes in the usual uncomfortable way. Plus, she felt much lighter and faster as she raced to the ground.

Applebloom cheered and whooped like a little kid going on a thrill ride as she flew. Finally the ride came to an end and she touched the ground.

“Oh wow,” she exclaimed. “That was amazing!”

“Heads up!” Sweetie Belle shouted as she came down.

Quickly Applebloom disconnected herself and then moved to catch Sweetie Belle. Sweetie came in fast, but Applebloom was ready and caught her without a problem.

“Thanks,” Sweetie said, panting slightly. “Nice catch.”

“No problem,” Applebloom replied as she helped her friend disconnect.

Scootaloo came rushing down next just in time for Sweetie Belle to catch her. The trio soon went on their second run, this time as a group. Applebloom still found it enjoyable, but considering she got stuck in the third spot behind Scootaloo, it wasn’t as fun as the first run. This continued for about an hour, the Cutie Mark Crusaders’ gleeful screams filling the forest, and only stopping as the sun set and it got too dark to see clearly.

Applebloom grinned, wobbling slightly from adrenaline as she took off the zip line gear. “That was awesome! What do you girls want to do now?”

Sweetie Belle let out a tired sigh from where she was sitting against a nearby tree, her harness lying on the ground next to her. “Honestly, Applebloom, I think it’d be nice if we just went back to the house to get some rest.”

“I’m with Sweetie Belle, it’s late and we’ve had a bit of a day,” Scootaloo agreed. “So if it’s all the same to you we’re gonna go to bed.”

Applebloom was about to protest when she remembered the farm work they still had to do tomorrow. “Right, the farm work,” she muttered to herself. “Alright, we’ll head back in.”

The three girls set to work collecting up the zip line gear before they walked back home. Soon enough they were back at Sweet Apple Acres and getting ready for bed.

“Even bits says you’re gonna sleep nude tonight?” Scootaloo asked Sweetie Belle around her toothbrush. “Since your day is tomorrow and all.”

“I’ve been thinking about it,” Sweetie Belle responded. “But I think I’ll do what Applebloom did, stay clothed until chore time and then get naked.”

Scootaloo nodded as she put away her toothbrush and slid into her sleeping bag. “What about you, AB, you gonna sleep naked?”

“Might as well,” Applebloom shrugged. “I just hope I don’t wet the bed.”

That prompted a round of giggles as they all tucked in. Soon enough, they were all asleep. Applebloom, however, didn’t stay asleep. She tossed and turned for a while before finally waking up. It was barely night as she slowly sat up in the bed. Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo were totally asleep. But Applebloom was still awake and still wanted to do something. She had enjoyed this day so much and really hadn’t wanted to end. After all, there was still something she wanted to do.

At the edge of the farm there was a small pond, just large and deep enough to swim in. There had been several times when she had wanted to just strip off everything and swim in it after a hard day’s work. And yet she never got that opportunity, even when she wore her bathing suit under her clothes, because Applejack would never allow it. Okay, maybe that wasn’t true, Applejack did allow for swims, but only if she could keep an eye on her.

Applebloom thought at first that a deadly animal lived nearby, but she later found out it was that Applejack had a fear of drowning and didn’t want anyone she cared about to get hurt swimming. It was an admirable trait, which was why Applebloom always worked hard in swimming classes during gym. Still, it was annoying, especially on hot days, and even after easing up on the protectiveness Applejack still didn’t allow her to swim in the pond. But now that Applejack was away for three days maybe Applebloom could risk a swim without supervision.

And yes, there were risks. She could get hurt, but then, that was true about practically anything she did. She could also be spotted by any creatures or people wandering the woods at night. And lastly, Princess Luna guarded the night and was known for keeping tabs on people through her moon, so there was a chance Luna could see her.

But they all were moot next to Applebloom’s sheer desire to try it. She had done her chores, eaten, and zip lined nude; she wasn’t going to give up now. So the young farmer softly climbed out of bed, careful not to wake her friends, and walked out of her room. Making sure to grab a towel and a spare article of clothing, Applebloom snuck her way out of the house and to the swimming hole. Luna’s moon was bright and illuminated the path before her, as well as the rest of the forest. Applebloom knew the path to the swimming hole very well and it didn’t take long for her to get there.

But when she did get there, her hopes for a peaceful swim vanished. The moon hung right over the swimming hole, making it almost certain that Princess Luna would in fact see her.

Applebloom sighed as she slumped up against a tree; she had really wanted that swim. Taking a glance around, Applebloom saw that no one was within sight.

“Well,” she whispered, “I guess I could take a gander over to the water. So long as I don’t swim I don’t think Luna will see.”

She gently walked over to the pool, crouched down, and looked in. The clear water reflected her image as perfect as a mirror. Applebloom smiled a bit as she looked into the water, her pride and her own confidence swelling. She was outside naked. Maybe it was at night, but that didn’t matter. No one in her family had dared do this before, and she’d probably have a tanned hide if she was caught by either Applejack or Big Mac. But that didn’t matter either, she wanted to do something, so she did it.

Mostly, there was still the matter of taking a swim. Luna’s moon wasn’t going anywhere, and Applebloom could slowly feel her body wanting to go into the water. So Applebloom bit the bullet; if Luna did catch her, so be it. Standing to full height, Applebloom dipped her toe in the water. It was cold to the touch, but that was expected. So she sunk her whole foot in, and then her leg, and finally waded in slowly.

The feeling of weirdness hit instantly, as usually her bikini bottoms would protect her lower half from the cold water. Now that it wasn’t there, the sensation was a bit odd and sent a shiver up her spine. Applebloom breathed deeply, and after a moment it was just like wading into a normal pool. Once she was confident enough, she dove in.

Cheerilee had enjoyed body surfing in the ocean as well as sunning on the beach, but after a while it had grown old and she wanted to do something more. And apparently so did the others. Celestia’s sun had already disappeared behind the horizon and Luna’s moon was slowly rising as Cheerilee was led back from the car towards an arcade joint.

“An arcade,” she stated flatly. “Is this really where we’re going?”

“Of course, what’s better than a little fun and entertainment after relaxing most of the day?” Vinyl replied.

“I’m actually quite surprised there’s one in a nudist resort,” Octavia said thoughtfully.

“Well we can’t just sit around all day and talk,” Vinyl shot back.

“Good point, but I do hope the racing games have sterile seats.”

“Oh you worry too much, Octy,” Vinyl admonished.

“She does make a valid argument,” Twilight pointed out.

“Look, girls, I’ve been here before and I know the owner. Trust me when I say he keeps a clean place,” Vinyl said, an edge of annoyance in her voice, just as the girls walked in.

“I’ll take your word for it, Tables,” Cheerilee said.

As it turned out, Vinyl was true to her word; the arcade was, in fact, very clean. The seats were covered with replicable plastic and the floors were spotless. The quartet walked up to the front desk and Vinyl tapped upon it.

“Hey, Vinyl, what’s going on?” a voice said from behind the counter. Cheerilee was surprised to see a good looking, blonde coated man walk up to the back of the counter.

“Sheppard, how are you?” Vinyl smiled. “This is Octavia Melody, Cheerilee, and Princess Twilight Sparkle.”

“A pleasure to meet you all. So! You all here for some fun?” Sheppard asked.

“Of course, why else would we be here?” Vinyl said, her tone playful.

“Oh, he’s cute,” Cheerilee muttered under her breath.

And he was well built, tall, and very well…

“Hey, is that a racing game?” Twilight asked, interrupting Cheerilee’s thought process.

“Yeah, High Speed 7,” Sheppard responded. “Let me just get some coins out for you girls.”

That got Cheerilee thinking. “Um, question: where do we put them?”

Vinyl held up a small pouch with a string tie. “You put the coins in this and tie it around your arm.”

“Oh, that’s clever,” Cheerilee said as she examined the pouch in Vinyl’s hand. She walked back over to the counter, picking up one of the bags of tokens Sheppard had placed there.

Pretty soon the quartet was playing away. First it was the racing game Twilight had pointed out, which she amazingly came in first in. Then Octavia and Vinyl played in a shooting game, though Octavia backed out pretty fast. Finally it was the coup de grace: Rock Band.

“Which song do you guys wanna start with?” Vinyl asked, taking a seat at the drums.

“Oh man, I don’t know, do you want to play difficult, medium, or easy?” Cheerilee asked, holding the lead guitar.

“How about ‘Free Bird?’” Twilight asked, holding the microphone.

“Skynyrd, really?” Octavia groaned as she took the bass guitar.

“What’s the matter, Tavi, think you can’t do it?” Vinyl teased.

“Don’t test me Vinyl,” Octavia sniffed. “I’m just not a huge fan of Lynyrd Skynyrd.”

“Sorry, Octavia, but I really want to play this one,” Twilight said, an apologetic smile on her face.

“Same here,” Vinyl and Cheerilee said in unison.

Outnumbered, Octavia relented and got ready to play. A few clicks of Cheerilee’s guitar later and they were playing. Surreal as it was that four girls with no clothes on were playing on Rock Band, the fact they were playing on ‘Free Bird’ made Cheerilee give an ironic smile. She hit all the notes with the precision that came from lots of practice. However, the more impressive performance was Vinyl tapping away on the drums. She hit the rhythm even better than Cheerilee expected, but that must’ve come from Vinyl’s incredible rhythm talent. Octavia handled herself well, despite missing a few notes here and there. Then Cheerilee heard Twilight start singing, and there was only one way to describe her voice: magnificent.

A small crowd began to gather around the girls, watching in impressed awe. Cheerilee looked around briefly during a guitar break and spotted Sheppard, still at the counter. He was watching her, looking right at her. Cheerilee blushed and went back to playing the game. The song reached its climax and soon they brought it to an end. The crowd was silent for a moment before breaking into thunderous applause, applause that only redoubled when the girls bowed in respect.

Cheerilee was about to walk over to Sheppard to talk when she spotted a Pegasus walk up to him and turn him around. He seemed to respond well to her, and the nail went into Cheerilee’s coffin when he put his lips on the Pegasus.

“Damn,” Cheerilee muttered under her breath.

She felt a nudge from Twilight. “She’s cute.”

“Yeah,” Cheerilee muttered.

“You’ll get the next one,” she smiled.

Cheerilee looked at Twilight, who simply returned a knowing smile. As did Octavia and Vinyl.

Author's Note

What's this? what's this? an update here and here? What's this? What's this? An Author's note with an appology:

First one is this: Sorry for taking so damn long I had a brutal College Semester and a bad creative writing class (shitty teacher don't get me started) which pushed me off writing for a bit

Day Two (Part One)

Day Two

Sleeping while being naked was something Cheerilee had never considered before this trip. Now she couldn’t have imagined living without it. No waking up in the middle of the night to kick off sheets because she was too hot, no having to remove undergarments in order to feel comfortable before bed, and no having to worry about messing up some clothes by tossing and turning. For the first time in years she finally had a good night’s sleep.

Rolling out of bed, Cheerilee stretched her arms and legs out. She looked around the room and saw Twilight was still fast asleep. The alicorn princess looked beautiful as she lay in the bed, covers wrapped around her.

Cheerilee smiled softly, “Be quiet Cheerilee, let her sleep.”

The sun was barely off the skyline and its light was filling the room. She walked around the bed before making it nice and neat before walking into the shower. Soon as she walked in she found the next reason why nude sleeping was awesome: nothing to take off before showering.

She turned on the shower, let the water get hot, and stepped in. As she showered, Cheerilee began to wonder what today’s plans were going to be. Yesterday’s beach trip was fun and even better with the trip to the arcade, so what was today going to be? Maybe they’d visit the theme park Vinyl was talking about. Maybe they’d go to the mall, or hit up some diners. Maybe she’d finally meet a single guy. Sheppard was a good target, but the fact he had a girlfriend deflated Cheerilee’s chances.

But now she knew that Twilight, Octy, and Vinyl were on her side. At least they would help her look for a guy to fill her life. Regardless, today was going to be another good day. Then she heard the bathroom door open.

“Cheerilee are you in here?” Twilight asked.

“Yes I am,” Cheerilee said poking her head from out of the curtain.

“Did you sleep well?” Twilight asked, beginning to run a comb through her hair.

“Surprisingly better than I have in years.” Cheerilee answered as she continued to wash up.

“I know, I will admit though I wrap the blankets around me more than I used to.” Twilight giggled as she pulled out a toothbrush.

“Cold much,” Cheerilee answered as she shut off the shower.

“I don’t think it’s just that, but probably.” Twilight answered, “Spike told me I’m so used to sleeping clothed I guess I subconsciously do it. However I don’t think I’ll ever go back to sleeping normally again.”

Stepping out of the shower, Cheerilee couldn’t help but nod. “After one night of this, I think I can completely agree.”

Twilight nodded as she brushed her teeth. Cheerilee, after drying off, pulled out the blow dryer to start to dry her hair. After giving her hair a long comb and blow drying session, she finished with her hair just as Twilight was about to step into the shower.

“So where do you wanna go today?” Cheerilee asked.

“I’m not entirely sure, but I know Octy wanted to try out that theme park.” Twilight said.

Cheerilee giggled, “I can’t see Octavia being the type whom enjoys high speed roller coasters.”

“You know,” Twilight said, “I completely agree but we’ve been proven wrong before.”

“Good point, do you know if those two are up?” she asked putting down the hair dryer and wrapping a towel around her.

“Beats me,” Twilight answered as she turned on the shower.

“Alright I’ll go get breakfast.” Cheerilee said and walked out of the bathroom. She made her way through the bedroom, towel still wrapped around her. Once she reached the door, she checked her fur to see if it was fully dried. One of Cheerilee’s greatest pet peeves was being dripping wet, so she always made sure she was fully dry before putting clothes on. Now that she was, at least for the day and day following, naked she didn’t want to drip on the floor.

She rubbed her hands all over and still found some wet patches, so she put the soaking wet towel in the hamper and grabbed a second one. This one was considerably shorter, as it was a towel provided by the house, but it covered enough of Cheerilee and the wet patches that she was content. Exiting the bedroom, she made it a point to ask Vinyl why the towels were so small here.

It didn’t take her long to find the duo.

“Oh hey Party-lee good morning,” Vinyl’s voice came in from the kitchen.

Cheerilee turned a corner and saw the duo in the kitchen, Vinyl working her way through a small stack of pancakes and Octavia, wearing an apron, cooking up some more.

“Indeed good morning, and perfect timing too I just finished my full batch of pancakes.” Octavia said.

“I’m taste testing!” Vinyl said with almost the tone a young child would say.

“I can see that, are they good?” Cheerilee giggled as she walked in.

Vinyl nodded like a bobble head being pushed too hard. Cheerilee almost was worried some of the food would slide out or worse down her throat, but Vinyl surprised her again by resuming munching on her food just after stopping. Walking in, Octavia handed Cheerilee a small stack of five pancakes on a plate.

“Thank you Octy that was so nice of you.” Cheerilee said.

“You’re welcome Cheerilee.” Octavia said.

“I hope these pancakes won’t affect your condition?” Cheerilee asked.

Octavia smiled, “Oh no don’t worry about that, and I made these gluten free.”

Cheerilee smiled brightly, “Well then I best go eat.”

“Coffee machines almost ready,” Vinyl said before stuffing her face with another pancake.

“Oh good, I could go for that.” Twilight said appearing from the bedroom, towel wrapped around her body and hair.

Cheerilee smiled as she sat down. As she did, she noticed that Vinyl was the only one who wasn’t wearing anything. Cheerilee and Twilight had towels that at least covered their modesty, and Octavia’s apron did cover much of her front half though it left little hidden on the back. But then again that was always Vinyl’s famous trait: standing out from the crowd.

Twilight walked over to the coffee machine and began to press buttons, “Cheer you want any?”

Cheerilee nodded, “Yes please, black.”

Twilight looked at Cheerilee, “Ain’t that going to be bitter?”

“That’s how I like them.” Cheerilee smiled.

Twilight shook her head, “Okay, no problem. I’d just never thought I’d meet anyone whom liked it straight black.”

Cheerilee chuckled for a bit and went back to her pancakes. After taking two small bites of a piece she cut out, she was instantly hooked and began to eat away at the pancakes at her plate. She stopped only once, when Twilight brought her the coffee. Once the pancakes were finished, she looked up to see that Octavia had finished cooking breakfast and now had joined the trio, apron still on.

“I see you enjoyed them, I told you she would Octy.” Vinyl smiled.

“Alright Vinyl, no need to rub it in. I just wasn’t sure whether.” Octavia responded.

“They were good,” Cheerilee said.

“Yeah, you really cook well.” Twilight said, “You’re a natural.”

“Oh I’m no natural, Chief Gaston taught me. He was the family’s personal chief and when I was a little girl I would always sneak into his kitchen to see how he prepared my food.” Octavia blushed.

“Well he taught you well.” Cheerilee complimented before helping herself to another batch of pancakes.

“So what do you two want to do today?” Octavia asked, cutting another triangle out of her pancake.

“Vinyl told me she wanted to go to the Theme park we talked about.” Twilight said.

“Oh yeah I forgot, Today’s swim with the fish day.” Vinyl said.

“That sounds like fun.” Cheerilee said.

Octavia bemused for a moment, “I hope the water isn’t freezing cold.”

“I wouldn’t doubt it,” Vinyl sighed, “But I do know we can ride in a small boat if we don’t want to get frost bite.”

“What about the roller coasters?” Cheerilee asked, “How good are they?”

“I know they got nothing on the coasters out at the Gardens but I hear they’re a worthy contender.” Vinyl answered.

Cheerilee chewed her food for a moment, “Well I guess we should find out now shouldn’t we?”

Vinyl cheered, “That’s the spirit Party-lee.”

“Alright then let’s finish up and get ready for the day.” Twilight said with a smile on her face.

The other girls nodded and went back to eating their breakfast.

Applebloom slept well that night, after getting home around three in the morning. She still had just enough time to bank a well nights rest before waking up the next day. The morning had preceded much like the previous one with one major exception, she was still naked. There really was no explanation Applebloom could find, she just didn’t have a desire to put her clothing back on. Yeah she was exposed in front of her friends, but by now they seemed to be perfectly okay with it, more so she didn’t seem bothered by it either. But now was going to be another trial, as this day was Sweetie Belle’s time to be naked.

However, unlike Applebloom’s tormented morning the previous day, Sweetie Belle seemed to be taking this all rather well. She stayed in her pajamas even after showering but Applebloom could tell that was all she had on. She sat at the table for breakfast and really said nothing within regards to how she was feeling today, though both Applebloom and Scootaloo tried their hardest to get Sweetie to talk.

But she didn’t and the other two bit their lips and moved on. Soon enough, it was time to go back out for more chores. Approaching the front door, Applebloom once again faced the nerves she felt the day before but this time it was minimalized compared to what she was feeling the day before. She wasn’t shaking and she also wasn’t feeling any draft, so Applebloom was now comfortable. She reached for the door handle to go outside when she heard Sweetie Belle descending the stairs.

“You ready to go AB?” Sweetie asked as she reached the bottom step.

“Yup, are you?” Applebloom nodded before turning around, half expecting to see Sweetie going through the same problem she had yesterday.

But to Applebloom’s remarkable surprise, Sweetie Belle was already naked and looking completely comfortable, “Oh yeah, I just hope it’s not cold outside.”

Applebloom’s face scrunched in complete shock as she saw Sweetie walking over to her. The fact that Belle was completely comfortable in her own skin, better more in front of Applebloom, was stunning. Applebloom had to push her way through a torrent of emotions to try and go outside naked; Sweetie seemed to be very willing to just do it.

“Something wrong Applebloom?” Sweetie asked.

Applebloom stammered for a moment, but then found the words she was trying to convey. “Um, you seem rather comfortable there Sweetie Belle.”

Sweetie looked at Applebloom oddly, “Yeah why wouldn’t I be?”

“Well, I mean you….you kinda are….” Applebloom started.

“Naked, and in front of you, who is also naked.” Sweetie Belle finished.

“Uh, yeah,” Applebloom nodded.

Sweetie shrugged, “Well, to be honest I was kinda nervous about doing this yesterday, but after seeing how well you handled it yesterday…it kinda gave me confidence to try it.”

Applebloom took a step back. On the one hand she was still very shocked at how comfortable Sweetie Belle was, even more so now that she learned Sweetie had drew inspiration from Applebloom herself. But on the other hand, Applebloom was completely honored. Here she was yesterday, and a little bit today, going through an emotional rollercoaster and yet she had managed to overcome that to become a source of inspiration for a friend. That actually made Applebloom blush a little.

“Aww thanks Sweetie that actually means a lot.” Applebloom said.

Sweetie giggled, “And besides, part of me was enjoying the prospect of doing this ever since we made the bet. You won’t believe how tightly Rarity runs the house, it’s almost like I can’t enjoy anything this…uncouth.”

Applebloom giggled along with Sweetie Belle, “Yeah, she might faint just upon seeing us.”

“I wouldn’t be surprise, come on let’s get out there!” Sweetie Belle said.

Author's Note

So let me tell you about problems, My comp broke! And right now its been extremely long since i wanted to put this out so I wrapped up the first part and get it out here right now just to stop the suspense and get this out there. Part two is gonna take a while cuz i gotta get my other story "Razgriz" Act One out.

Day Two (Part Two)

If you told Cheerilee on Thursday she would be riding around in a convertible on Saturday, she’d believe you. Now add on the fact that in that convertible would be Princess Twilight, Octavia Melody, and Vinyl Scratch, she might believe you. What would be completely inconceivable would be she would be in a convertible with those three, and naked. But even better was, she was enjoying it. The wind blowing against her fur felt amazing, and the fact her breasts and body were getting the full of it without any clothes made it all the more special. Yesterday she was amazed by the experiences, today she was hooked. And the other girls knew it mostly because it was written all over her face.

Vinyl had taken the convertible onto the highway running through town with the promise that the theme park was only an hour long drive. The roof was of course down and the quartet loved every minute of it. Twilight leaned forward to talk with Vinyl while Cheerilee looked out towards the sky. She wasn’t really a theme park type of person, as when she was younger a rather large roller coaster ride scared her pretty badly. With the help of Carrot top and Derpy she had managed to overcome her fear of coasters, but she still didn’t like them.

Still that didn’t mean she couldn’t enjoy herself. She did like the water as well as dolphins and whales, which this place provided, so it wasn’t a total loss. Plus she was surrounded by friends, which were always a benefit.

“So how long have you been looking for someone?” Twilight asked.

Cheerilee looked at Twilight and then realized that it wasn’t the first time Twilight had asked that question. She blushed, “Oh well… It’s not that I’m…I’ve just been…”

“Oh don’t worry Party-lee,” Vinyl said, “This place is full of nice guys and girls ready to find other people.”

“That’s funny,” Octavia smirked, “I always thought families and couples went to something like this.”

Vinyl shushed Octavia and whispered, “I’m trying to make her feel better.”

“I know Vinyl, but honestly we’re not going to find any nice guy for her at an amusement park. Why don’t we hold off on finding Cheerilee’s love until the party tonight?” Octavia smiled.

Cheerilee giggled, “Thanks guys but I’m honestly here to enjoy this new life.”

“Oh don’t lie to me Party-lee,” Vinyl smiled.

Cheerilee smirked but said nothing as they made their way to the park.

“Oh my Celestia,” Cheerilee exclaimed, “This Park looks fantastic!”

And she was right on the money. Amphitrite Water Park was stunning to look at. Filled with at least fifteen water park rides, twenty slides, and four pools including a lazy river, a petting zoo, and finally a small beach zone to tan.

“Wow,” Twilight said a little off put, “This is a lot bigger than I had planned for.”

“Still we won’t go bored here,” Vinyl chuckled, “Where should we start?”

Cheerilee bit her lower lip trying to think, “Why not look around first, and if we see any ride that’s awesome enough we’ll hop on it.”

“Oh a smashing idea,” Octavia said, “But may we get something to eat first, that smell is driving me crazy.”

It wasn’t until Octavia mentioned it that Cheerilee noticed the smell as well. The entrance to the park was lined with food shops each with vendors hawking their wares. And each one smelled better than the last.

“You know that’s not a bad idea,” Twilight said, “But let’s get something to walk around with.”

“Great!” Vinyl exclaimed, “I vote churros!”

The other three laughed and they walked into the park, towels resting over their arms or shoulders. Much like the three of them, the rest of the park’s patrons were nude. In fact, Cheerilee noticed, most of the park employees were nude too. Of course the food vendors wore clothing to cover them from getting burned or having something horrible happen while preparing the food. But as for everyone else, naked as the day they were born. It also wasn’t Equestrians either, many others were present too. And they all seemed very comfortable which calmed any nerves Cheerilee might have been having.

There was one major down side though. Most, if not all the men present, were accompanied by someone. If she was going to find a date here, it was going to be next to impossible. Not as if any of the other girls weren’t going to try and help, but that being said the other three were more focused on getting food. However Cheerilee did sigh slightly, it was going to be a tough but fun day.

The first few rides were gentle ones, nothing with the flips and turns that Vinyl had been actually begging for. But they were good enough to allow the girls to get settled into the park first. They also made great use of the lazy river as a transportation device, as the river flowed to pretty much every part of the park. For most of the early day, they didn’t use the floats handed out and just free swam through it. Soon enough though; it came time for the more intense rides.

Twilight and Cheerilee handled the first set well enough, but after the fourth intense ride; a rather nasty ride called the Cthulhu, the duo wanted a break. Something Vinyl and Octavia weren’t going to stand for since they were now pumping with adrenaline.

“You really want to stop right now?” Octavia asked, a little dismayed, “But that Cthulhu was so much fun!”

“Yeah come on you stick-in-the-muds!” Vinyl smirked, “You wanna be fillies forever or earn your rider stripes?”

Cheerilee dismissed both of them, “It’s not like we don’t want to, but we’re a bit spent.”

“Yeah,” Twilight panted, “I think I’ve had enough for right now.”

“Oh come on!” Vinyl whined.

Cheerilee straightened out, employing all the traits that made her a great teacher to make Vinyl see sense. “Well, if it would be okay with you two, you guys can take a few more rides for the thrill. However if you cannot come to that, would you like it better if we just left and skipped all the rest this park had to offer?” she said evenly but sternly.

Vinyl’s mouth dropped, the wind clearly taken out of her sails, “Well when you put it like that.”

Octavia was clearly defeated too, “Alright, where would you like to meet us?”

“How about in the café area, we’ll get coffee afterward.” Twilight smiled.

The two nodded and headed off. It was nearly mid-afternoon and Celestia’s sun was starting to hang low while Twilight and Cheerilee headed back to the lazy river. When they got there the life guard asked, “Would you like two singles ladies?”

Cheerilee shook her head no, “I’d rather have one double please.”

“Really,” Twilight asked, “Why?”

“Those singles are so hard to control sometimes, and I’d just rather like to relax. Besides we can share it and talk easier.” She said with a smile.

Twilight sighed, “Alright good point, come on.”

They were then handed a double, rested it in the water, and then headed off down the lazy river. Cheerilee lay on her stomach, resting her arms in the water. Twilight meanwhile lay on her back, decided it better to sink slightly into the hole of the tube.

“I didn’t think those rides would wear me out so much,” Twilight sighed.

“I know right,” Cheerilee agreed, “I think my stomach is still churning from that last one.”

“Well at least we can ride this thing all the way around, maybe that will calm us down.” Twilight said.

Cheerilee giggled, “I’m just gladder my teacher shtick payed off, I didn’t think Vinyl and Octy were going to back down.”

Twilight laughed, “Yeah that was good of you.”

Cheerilee lifted her head and looked at Twilight, “You know this has been a good day. Just wish I could find someone interesting.”

Twilight pondered for a moment, “Why not one of the guards?”

“Nah, they’re on duty. Besides I dated a lifeguard once, not all that fun.” Cheerilee responded.

“You could try latching on to someone who is alone,” Twilight added, “Try the hunter approach.”

“That only works when you have something of notice to talk about, like a dress or shoes. Look around Ms. Sparkle,” Cheerilee giggled, “Best I could do is mention package size, and that’s not something I wanna get smacked with right now.”

Twilight laughed, “Well, you could always show off your assets, make the men come to you.”

Cheerilee laughed, “Maybe. But I’m no siren. And if the guys don’t come I’m sure I could grab one girl or two.”

Twilight laughed, “With what you got, any mare or stallion would be lucky to have you.”

Cheerilee nodded. Before slumping back over to relax she took one good look at Twilight. Cheerilee couldn’t put her finger on what it was, but there was something about the alicorn that made her look rather stunning while she rested in the raft. Shaking off the idea, Cheerilee rolled onto her back and went into a gentle snooze.

Author's Note

Huh what's this? what's going on? am i writing? what? when? why? How?

So day two done, time for our intrepid nudists to go into their second night! and trust me, things are going to get a bit interesting.

Night Two (Part One)

Night Two (Part one)

“Ready and heave!” Applebloom said as she gave the hay bale a mighty push.

She, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo gave the bale a push down the bale slide. With a gentle forward momentum, the bale went down the slide and landed on top of the stack the trio had spent all day making. To say all of them had worked up a sweat was an understatement, the trio was practically glistening. Only Scootaloo showed it though, as her clothes were soaked. Sweetie Belle and Applebloom however, were still nude and now being very thankful for it. Yet none of that mattered at the moment, the job was done and the sun was hanging low in the sky. It was a good day.

Despite Scootaloo giving Sweetie Belle some weird looks for taking to the whole nudity thing very, very easily; Scoots had gotten over it rather fast. And that made Applebloom rather pleased. Plus side, no one came to visit the farm today so the trio was left pretty much to do as they pleased. Now the CMC rested just outside the barn, their backs against the wall. Applebloom had brought over bottles of water before they began the job, now they were working through the third set of them.

“Man this is one hell of a work out.” Scootaloo said.

“Yeah no wonder you’re so strong Applebloom.” Sweetie Belle agreed.

Applebloom flexed her arm in pride, “Yeah, I’m proud of them myself. But really you should see Big Mac or Applejack. They’ve got at least twice the strength I got.”

“Well gotta be glad for what you got right now,” Scootaloo said.

Applebloom downed another swig of water, “Got a point there Scoots.”

Just then a soft buzzing caught their attention.

Scootaloo blushed slightly, “Oh that’s me.” She reached into her pocket and pulled out her cellphone, “Hello. Oh hey Rainbow Dash! No I’m actually staying over at Sweet Apple Acres. Yeah with, uh, Sweetie and AB. Really! Yeah I would love to!” Then she paused before grimacing, “Oh actually can I meet you there? No….no reason just want to.” She then giggled before hanging up.

“What was that all about?” Sweetie Belle asked.

“Rainbow’s gonna shoot off some fireworks near the lake.” Scootaloo explained, “Well her and Pinkie. She asked if I could come along, you two interested.”

“Nah I think I’m just gonna shower and go back to bed,” Applebloom said.

“Yeah me too,” Sweetie Belle agreed.

“Alright I’ll be back later,” Scootaloo said, “Just gonna go back inside and change.”

Applebloom and Sweetie Belle wanted to get up, but they remained there for a while as Scootaloo got ready. She then came back to the duo and waved goodbye.

“I’ll be back late, don’t wait for me!” she shouted.

“And don’t forget, it’s your turn tomorrow!” Applebloom shouted.

“I know and I won’t tell anyone!” they heard Scootaloo shout as she ran out of view.

Applebloom soon rested her head on the barn wall, taking a deep breath. The setting sun felt really good against her skin, especially since she was now drying off. Maybe she had found another good thing about being naked; sweat was drying her off much faster. But before she could focus on that, Sweetie Belle started giggling.

“What’s so funny?” Applebloom asked her friend.

Sweetie took one look at Applebloom and broke down laughing. Applebloom looked at Sweetie Belle awkwardly at first, and then Sweetie’s uncontrollable laughter began to make her giggle.

“Seriously,” Applebloom laughed, “What’s so funny?”

“You,” Sweetie Belle choked, “You’re naked.

Now Applebloom was confused, “Yeah, so are you.”

“I know, and we just completed an entire days’ worth of chores. Naked,” Sweetie Belle giggled.

Applebloom at first didn’t get it. But then she did, “Oh my Celestia, this is so embarrassing.” Soon she began to laugh, “It’s amazing no one saw us.”

“Yeah, could you imagine the scolding you’d get?” Sweetie asked.

“Oh I don’t think Applejack would ever leave me alone in the house again!” Applebloom snorted, “But let’s not forget old prim and proper.”

“Yeah Rarity would have a cow.” Sweetie Belle laughed, “But I’d think she’d hate this line more.”

“What line?” Applebloom asked.

“Despite the fact that two of us were naked all day, in the sun, with extreme risk of getting caught, I actually enjoyed it.” Sweetie Belle explained.

Applebloom stopped laughing, though a smile stayed on her face, as she took a drink of her water. She then looked at Sweetie Belle, “I hope the reason ain’t something I’m gonna regret asking about?”

Sweetie shook her head no, “Well as naughty and rebellious as this would be for me, I just felt…I don’t know really…”

“Free…” Applebloom murmured.

“You know what, yeah,” Sweetie Belle said, “Makes me kinda glad that we made this deal.”

Applebloom lowered her head a bit, “Yeah, I think I can agree with that. Kinda makes you wonder too you know.”

“About what,” Sweetie asked.

“About doing this more often, no clothes to wash after a long day of work, actually thinking about that: no clothes to get wet during work, and not having to worry about whether you’re wearing the most fashionable outfit.” Applebloom sighed, “Might actually give us an even keel back at school you know.”

“Would be actually kinda cool, in a rebellious kind-of-way,” Sweetie Belle said in a matter of fact tone.

“Jeeze I think Miss Cheerilee would have more of a cow than Rarity would.” Applebloom laughed.

Then an idea popped into Sweetie’s head, “Why don’t we go?”

Applebloom looked at her, “Go where?”

“To school, like this,” Sweetie grinned.

“Are you kidding, did you not just hear what I said?” Applebloom asked.

“No silly not during school time, I mean right now.” Sweetie smiled.

“And do what?” Applebloom asked again.

“Don’t know, haven’t thought that far ahead yet,” Sweetie answered, “But come on don’t you’d think it’d be cool to walk around Ponyville Middle School naked?”

Applebloom took a moment to think about it, “Wouldn’t that be kinda illegal?”

“If we get caught, come on schools on vacation and I highly doubt Miss Cheerilee is going to be there at this time of day. And if she is we leave before she spots us.” Sweetie said.

“I don’t know…” Applebloom sighed, rubbing her shoulder.

“Oh come on AB, haven’t you ever wondered what it might be like?” Sweetie asked.

“I find it scary that you have,” Applebloom answered looking at Sweetie Belle with a raised eyebrow.

“Like I said, in a rebellious kind of way,” Sweetie smiled, “Besides its late enough that no one would be walking that way to school regardless. And if any are we’ll just dive behind a bush for cover.”

Applebloom continued to rub her shoulder. She really couldn’t find a way to dissuade Sweetie Belle besides the arguments she already used. Plus, just only a night ago she had ventured out to the lake for a swim naked. There was also the fact that going to school naked might actually be fun, especially if they don’t get caught. So she relented.

“Alright Sweetie let’s try it, but if we see anyone on the road we dive for cover. No flashing anyone okay?” Applebloom said.

Sweetie smiled, “Don’t worry; I don’t think my psyche can handle even attempting that.”

And with that they were off to school. Applebloom was somewhat okay with the path they took, as Sweet Apple Acres did have its own pathway to Ponyville Middle and High. The path was surrounded mostly by trees and brush, but it wasn’t owned by the Apple family. So people would take the path to talk. Thankfully Celestia’s sun had already set behind the tree line, which made spotting the two naked girls much harder. Yet it was also a double edged sword, as it was also tough for them to see where they were going. Still, Applebloom was taken back by what they were actually doing.

“This feels so surreal,” She whispered to Sweetie Belle.

“I know right, kinda feels fun.” Sweetie giggled.

Onward they walked, down the road towards the school. No one was out tonight, probably either home or going to watch the fireworks Scootaloo talked about. And this eased Applebloom. She still couldn’t stomach the risk of being seen. It was fun when Carrot Top and Derpy walked close by her, but then she had the assured cover of the corn crops and the kart. This, it was just the bushes. Anyone saw them walking down the road might go and investigate. And if they did, the two of them would be caught. Soon they caught sight of the schoolhouse.

There was a light on, yet it looked like no one was home. Regardless, the duo ducked behind a brush to plan their next move.

“Still want to do this?” Applebloom asked.

“Well we did make it all the way here, no turning back now.” Sweetie Belle sighed.

Applebloom nodded, “So what do you want to do, walk around inside or go play on that jungle gym?”

“Let’s see if we can get inside.” Sweetie said.

Before Applebloom could protest, Sweetie was off. She ran across the gap between the bush and the schoolhouse faster than Applebloom had ever seen her run before. Shaking her head, Applebloom stayed right where she was. The chances of two of them getting caught were far greater than if Sweetie went alone. Plus, in case someone was around, she could avoid getting caught. Still, this was kinda fun. It had been the most daring thing Applebloom could do since she took the apple pie cart alone. She was actually hoping they could find a way inside.

Her hopes were soon fulfilled. Sweetie called over, “Hey I found an entrance!”

Beaming, Applebloom made her way over. The entrance Sweetie had found was right by the gym, which made sense as the cleaning crew usually entered and exited through those doors. Thankfully they were long gone, as their equipment were nowhere to be seen. So the doors were open and the two girls walked in. Being at school when there was no one around was weird. But doing it when no one was around and they were naked was even weirder.

And Sweetie wasted no time in acknowledging it, “Wow this is weird.”

“Yeah,” Applebloom said, “I can feel the tiles beneath my feet.”

“Yeah me too, they’re cold.” Sweetie shivered, “I guess there are some benefits to wearing socks and sneakers.”

“Hey lets head to our lockers.” Applebloom said.

“Why?” Sweetie asked.

“Well we’re in school and I can’t think of anything to do right now.” Applebloom grimaced.

“I’ll buy that; let’s treat this like a normal day then.” Sweetie smiled.

“Normal as in normal/normal or normal except we’re naked,” Applebloom asked.

“I don’t know which would be more fun?” Sweetie asked.

Applebloom thought for a moment, “Straight normal, it’ll be like everyone else doesn’t even notice.”

Sweetie nodded in agreement, “Alrighty then let’s go.”

The duo made their way to their lockers, which were located just outside Miss Cheerilee’s class room. Applebloom plugged in the combination to her lock and managed to open it up. Inside were the books she had left in their back on Thursday before the weekend started, untouched since then. Until now, she pulled out two of her notebooks and closed her locker. Only to find Sweetie admiring herself in a small mirror she had in her own locker.

“Nice dress Sweetie Belle,” Applebloom joked.

“Like it? It’s something I’ve had for years but never got a chance to try it out before.” Sweetie told her while fixing her hair.

“What brought it on?” Applebloom asked.

“Just a spur of the moment decision,” Sweetie answered and turned around to face Applebloom, “Though I love what you have on.”

“Ah shucks, it’s nothing special.” Applebloom said, “Yours is much prettier.”

“Oh don’t be like that; you should be proud of what you got. Come on let’s get to class before Diamond Twit and Silver Splatoon show up.” Sweetie said closing her locker.

“I don’t think they’ve got class with us today,” Applebloom smiled.

The two girls shared a laugh as they walked inside Cheerilee’s classroom, which was also surprisingly unlocked. The duo made their way into the classroom and looked around. Thankfully no one could be seen within the room or around the windows, so they were still safe. Then they took their seats.

“Eeeek,” Applebloom jumped after sitting down.

“What?” Sweetie asked, suddenly alarmed.

“The chairs are cold!” Applebloom giggled, “That caught me off guard.”

Sweetie giggled, but then she sat down and knew exactly what Applebloom was talking about, “Oh you’re right!”

The duo then laughed as they both soon got used to the sensation. They sat around the room for a while, pretending to be students within Cheerilee’s class room before finally getting bored and moving back around the school. Applebloom soon realized she was having the time of her life. She was doing something that many could see as illegal and immoral but she didn’t care. This was fun. She was, so far, getting away with something she’d never do with anyone around: walking around School naked. Plus side, she wasn’t alone, she was with Sweetie Belle. Somehow, having someone to share this experience with was all the more fun.

But soon enough the night sky was telling them that it was time to head back home. The duo made sure they locked up everything and headed out of the school.

“Man I can’t wait to tell Scoots about this!” Sweetie Belle said.

“Yeah, she’ll be so jealous she missed this.” Applebloom agreed.

Sweetie giggled, “You know it’s gonna be her turn tomorrow, I wonder how she’s gonna take it.”

“Probably something between how you or I took it. I mean I was scared stiff and you were accepting, so she’ll either be one of those two.” Applebloom pondered.

“Well we’ll just have to see.” Sweetie said.

Applebloom was quiet for a second but then turned to Sweetie Belle, “Hey Sweetie?”

“Hmm,” Sweetie answered.

“Thanks for recommending this, this was fun.” Applebloom said.

Sweetie didn’t say anything, she just smiled as the duo walked back home.

Author's Note

So i got a bit of a confession to make, i actually hate writing Slice of Life stories sometimes. Why? because i'm an action/adventure writer and most of my fics usually have grand explosions or fight scenes galor. Slice of Life stories really don't, and at times i find them to be boring. Which is why it takes me awhile to write stories like this one. I've had other Nudist themed stories kicking around in my head but of course my boredom and ADHD always force me from planting my big fat ass down and getting work done.
Hence why i don't put up a set schedule anymore, so anyone PMing me asking for chapter release date you'd better do something else cuz your going to get the generic "its on its way" answer.

Now that i got that out of my system let me close by saying i was centimeters, mere centimeters, away from making this section an Apple/Belle ship but i passed on it. Why? honestly because it's too easy so take those shipping Goggles off!

Day One (Part One)

Day One

Applebloom awoke the next morning just at the crack of dawn. Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo were still half-asleep in their sleeping bags as she crawled out of bed and made her way to the bathroom. Upon entering she tossed off her pajamas, grabbed her tooth brush, and turned on the shower. Stepping in immediately, she let the shock of the cold water wake her up completely.

Soon enough the water became hot and she began to clean up. As she did so, her mind ran through its mental checklist of what the day’s chores were going to be, at least for her. Today she was supposed to clean the house, take in some of the corn crop, and mow the lawn for the cows. Simple chores that were made a lot easier with Scoots and Sweetie Belle present.

A smile crept onto Applebloom’s face; this was going to be a fun weekend. As she reached for the loofah to begin washing her body, she remembered that she was going to have to do all those chores naked. Applebloom gulped a mighty big gulp as she washed herself down. She was young, there was no denying it, but she wasn’t a little girl either. She was filling out, though her body was still in the early development stages. Unlike Sweetie Belle, who’d popped up like a weed when she’d first hit puberty.

But that being said, she was going to have to go outside, with the possibility of being seen by other people, naked, on full display. And if even a hint of this got sent to her family, or worse Diamond Tiara…

That made Applebloom quiver with fear. Her nerves got the better of her as she began to think of the myriad ways she could be shamed or punished. So much so that she forgot how long she was in the shower. Applebloom was only woken out of her horrified trance when Sweetie knocked on the door.

“Applebloom, are you still in there?” she asked.

“Oh,” Applebloom squeaked, “Oh, yeah. Hang on a second, I’m almost done.” She then quickly wrapped up her shower and got out. Grabbing a towel she wrapped it around her and opened the door. “All finished.”

“Thanks AB,” Sweetie Belle replied sleepily, rubbing her cheek to help her wake up.

“You’re welcome, water’s all nice and hot for ya too,” Applebloom said very shakily.

“Something wrong?” Sweetie asked.

“Oh no, just a little sleepy,” Applebloom lied. “I’m gonna go get dressed. Is Scootaloo up?”

“She’s in the master bathroom so you don’t got to worry,” Sweetie Belle smiled, “Though really, Applebloom, I don’t see the need for you to worry.”

Applebloom bit her lower lip. “Well, I kinda do.”

“What’s the matter, are you nervous?” Sweetie asked.

Shifting her eyes, Applebloom took a moment to answer. “A little bit,” she admitted quietly.

“You could always back out, and save us the trouble as well,” Sweetie said softly.

“Yeah, but something tells me Scoots would never let me live it down, especially considering my display yesterday,” Applebloom said.

Sweetie Belle nodded. “Yeah, good point. What are you going to do, then?”

Applebloom took a deep sigh. “I guess I’m gonna have to go through it. Besides, it’s only for chores, right?”

“Yeah, so nothing to worry about, really. Plus your family is away, so no one’s gonna approach the farm. You’ll be fine,” Sweetie Belle reasoned. “And if things really get tough, I’m sure Scoots will relent.”

Applebloom nodded as she conceded that point. It was comforting, to know that her friends would still be by her side no matter what. And that did make her feel better.

“Okay, thanks Sweetie, I needed that,” Applebloom said gratefully. “Anyway, I’m gonna head over to my room and get dressed.”

Sweetie nodded and then headed into the bathroom to clean up. Applebloom, meanwhile, walked back to her room. All the while Sweetie Belles words stuck with her. Scootaloo was compassionate and could easily forgive bad bets, in fact Applebloom was sure Scoots was hoping she’d pull out because of what day three was supposed to entail. Then again, maybe she’d accepted this deal for a different reason.

What that was she wasn’t sure of yet, whether it was bravado or the fact that she still hadn’t gotten an apology from either of them. And yet, despite her misgivings, there was something else driving her. She had always heard rumors in her class about kids streaking around their houses naked when the parents weren’t home, and it always eaten at her that she never did. Now her family wasn’t home, and she’d finally check that off her “to-do” list in life. It would be exciting, maybe, if she got over her fears.

Walking into her room, Applebloom looked around for something to put on. Sweetie Belle was also right in another regard: why would she put on clothes if she was just going to take them off again? Then again, it probably wasn’t a good idea to be naked during breakfast. So she grabbed one of her old pajamas, which was nothing more than an old style nightgown Granny Smith had given her. It was pinkish in color, though the color had faded a bit, but more importantly it was easy to get on and easy to get off.

Shedding the towel, Applebloom took a deep breath to calm her still-frayed nerves. Sliding the garment on, she suddenly felt weird wearing only that. She finally understood the value of undergarments, as the cloth of the old nightgown itched slightly. But this also reinforced to Applebloom something else: this garment was the only thing between her and complete nakedness.

She was really going through with this.

“No turning back now, Applebloom, time to be brave,” she said to herself.

Then she turned and headed out of her room to breakfast. Each step she took felt different now. She had walked around the house barefoot before, so the feeling her feet was getting against the wooden floors wasn’t anything new. But the sensations the rest of her body felt was completely different. The nightgown swayed with each step, as if trying to reveal the farmer’s fur and body underneath. She gave the nightgown a gentle tug and that seemed to straighten everything out. Descending the steps, Applebloom saw Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo sitting at the dining table.

“Good morning, Cutie Mark Crusaders!” she announced with a smile.

“Good morning, Applebloom,” Scootaloo replied. “Sleep well?”

“Meh, I’ve had better nights,” she said walking over to the cupboard to grab some cereal and milk.

“Yeah,” Scootaloo chuckled, “I hear ya. Sleeping bags are fun and all but not when it’s on a hard floor.”

“I don’t, know I slept fine,” Sweetie Belle commented.

“Maybe it’s just me,” Scootaloo shrugged.

“Guess you’re still not comfortable sleeping in sleeping bags,” Applebloom agreed.

“Hey, that was only because I was scared of those ghost stories Rainbow Dash told us,” Scootaloo said defensively.

Applebloom smiled as she poured herself breakfast and then joined the girls at the table. “Oh before I forget, everyone know their jobs today?” Applebloom asked.

“Yeah, I still got the list you gave me,” Scootaloo said. “Can I just ask, I’m supposed to bale the hay in the barn, do you also want me to move the hay bales?”

Applebloom shook her head. “Absolutely not, Big Mac always takes care of that job. All you gotta do is just clean up the barn.”

“Okay, good,” Scootaloo said. She then took a bite of her breakfast before looking back at Applebloom. “By the way, I take it the deal is still on?”

Applebloom froze midway through putting the spoon of her cereal into her mouth. She looked at Scootaloo, who had a small smirk on her face. For a few moments, Applebloom had almost hoped Scoots had forgotten about the deal, but then again she hadn’t any other time. So Applebloom finished taking a bite of her food before answering.

“Of course, Scootaloo, you know we Cutie Mark Crusaders never back away from a challenge.” Applebloom said.

Oddly, that didn’t make Scootaloo look any happier. “Oh, uh, I was actually kinda hoping that you’d back out, to be honest.”

“Why’s that, Scootaloo? I mean, yesterday you seemed all to determined to have this thing go through,” Sweetie Belle asked slyly.

“That was my ego talking,” Scootaloo said dismissively.

Applebloom smiled, “Well, we made the bet anyway. And none of us have backed out of a bet yet.”

“But you’re not, you know, nervous?” Scootaloo asked.

“Oh, unbelievably,” Applebloom answered quickly, remembering how jittery she had been. But she steeled herself. “But, now that I think about it, maybe it would be rather fun to actually do it instead of backing out. I mean no parents, no older sister, and no older brother even. Maybe running around this place naked would be kinda refreshing.”

Scootaloo sighed. “Well I’ve got two days before I have to even worry about it. Hopefully that’s enough time for either you or Sweetie to forfeit.”

“Maybe,” Sweetie grinned.

“Okay then, it’s settled for reals this time,” Applebloom said. “Let’s finish breakfast and head out to work.”

The airplane landed softly at Las Pegasus International Airport after a long flight from Canterlot. Cheerilee eased herself out of the chair she was in the moment the plane reached its gate. She had always hated flying ever since a flight to Zebrica she had been on as a girl had hit extreme turbulence. She was a bit envious of Twilight Sparkle, who was much more comfortable flying. Despite having wings Twilight was still too inexperienced to fly herself intercontinental distances safely. So she rode with Cheerilee on a commercial flight over.

Cheerilee sent a silent thanks Celestia for Twilight’s company, as the other mare had kept her mind completely off the flight and on random trivia about Equestria. The other passengers probably would’ve complained if Twilight hadn’t informed the flight crew of Cheerilee’s fear. Still, it was nice to be on the ground once again. The duo grabbed their carry-ons and walked out of the aircraft through the gateway to the terminal.

Twilight was dressed in a pair of blue jeans and a very nice blouse that probably came on loan from Rarity. Cheerilee, however, was dressed in a long blue dress with hot pants underneath, just in case any gust of wind got curious. That being said, she hadn’t worn a bra or panties, as she wanted very little to get in her way when she had to strip. Twilight had voiced her unease about Cheerilee being so daring, especially since she had never done this before.

But Cheerilee told Twilight that doing this was like going into a pool for the first time. Either dive in fast to give you little time to back out or wade in slowly and really think about it. And Cheerilee wanted the former over the latter. So Twilight bit her lip and continued on. But that hadn’t stopped the alicorn from informing Cheerilee about all the rules and regulations as to nudist conduct.

When they got into the terminal and recovered their luggage, Cheerilee turned to Twilight, who seemed to be looking for someone.

“So, Twilight, how exactly are we getting to this place?” Cheerilee asked.

“We were supposed to be picked up by someone, but I can’t find her,” Twilight grumbled.

“Twilight Sparkle!” shouted a voice.

Cheerilee looked in the direction of the voice and saw two women approach her, one unicorn and one earth. The unicorn had yellowish white fur, blue hair, and red eyes. She was wearing a white t-shirt with a pink double eighth note on it and tight black jeans with a blue stripe down the side. Her blue hair was cut short and very spikey. The earth had goldish grey fur, black hair, and purple eyes. She looked a lot more formal than her companion, despite only wearing a nice shirt and long skirt.

It took Cheerilee a moment to recognize the unicorn. “Oh my goodness, Vinyl Scratch! How have you been?”

“Cheerilee!” Vinyl screamed as she ran up. A split second later Cheerilee was nearly knocked off her feet by Vinyl’s jump hug. “Oh my god it’s been so long, what are you doing here?”

“I’m on vacation from my teaching job for three days and Twilight invited me,” she answered.

Vinyl gave Twilight an odd look, but before she could ask Twilight flashed a knowing nod. Vinyl grinned, turning back to Cheerilee. “Well thank Celestia she did, it’s been too long since I last saw Party-lee.”

Cheerilee laughed, “Too long, Turn Tables.”

Vinyl laughed at the old nickname, then turned around again to address her partner. “Octavia, this is my old college roomie Cheerilee. Cheerilee, this is my friend Octavia Melody.”

“A pleasure to meet you Miss Cheerilee. Forgive me for asking, but you’re the schoolteacher, right?” Octavia asked, extending a hand.

“Yes I am,” Cheerilee answered taking the hand and shaking. “And don’t worry, Vinyl’s such a social butterfly it was hard even for me, and I knew her before she was DJ.”

Octavia smiled in response. “Very good,”

“Good, we’re all introduced.” Twilight smiled. “I take it we’re ready to get going?”

“Oh, yes, we’d best get going,” Octavia replied.

With that the four girls walked out of the terminal. None really spoke up until they got to the parking lot and out of public eye.

“Wow, Twilight, I’m actually quite shocked no one came up to us,” Cheerilee said in an amazed tone. “I mean two of Equestrian’s most famous people just walked out of the airport that has got to make some sort of news.”

“Meh, if you keep your nose clean the press eventually gets bored with you,” Twilight answered, rolling her eyes.

“And besides, it’s daytime, none of the tabloid writers care what we do doing our day lives,” Vinyl added as they reached Vinyl’s car, a small four door vehicle. She then opened the trunk and began to help load the luggage in. “By the way, Twilight told you exactly where we’re going, right?”

“Comp D’ Ace,” Cheerilee answered. “She told me all about it last night.”

Vinyl looked at Cheerilee oddly. “Did she really?”

“Yeah, it’s a nudist place,” Cheerilee answered.

“Okay, ease off, Vinyl. She’s clearly informed,” Octavia chided.

They climbed into the car with Vinyl in the driver seat. Twilight and Cheerilee climbed into the back seat. Soon enough the car began to drive off towards the coast.

Cheerilee leaned back in the seat. “So, Vinyl, I never knew you were a nudist. Did you become one after we graduated?”

“Actually, been one all my life. But back then I was actually unsure of whether or not I was going to continue the tradition,” Vinyl answered. “I got back into it a few years after graduation when I went with my parents to this place for a friend’s wedding. But I will admit I got real close to keeping my clothes on.”

“Really, Vinyl, I never thought you would be the conservative type,” Octavia teased.

“And when did you become a nudist Octavia?” Cheerilee asked.

“Vinyl got me hooked about a year and a half ago,” Octavia answered. “When I moved to Canterlot I moved in with Vinyl. One thing led to another and I soon discovered this wonderful lifestyle.”

“And you became a nudist last year Twilight?” Cheerilee asked again.

“At the Soft Sun’s party, yeah, that’s also where I met Octavia,” Twilight answered.

The car soon got off the highway and began to drive along a road hugging the coast.

“So Vinyl, you’ve been here before, right? How is this place?” Twilight asked.

“Very wonderful, it’s actually a living community with shopping malls and even a school,” Vinyl replied. “Kinda like Spirit’s Maximus County in Unalando. I honestly love the golf courses and the beach they have, but Cheerilee I think you and Twilight will love the theme park.”

“Please tell me it’s not nudist themed,” Octavia sighed.

“Nope, it's ocean themed. Marine World, I think it’s called. From what I remember they have a lot of great rides there and even some great exhibits. Haven’t been there in a few years, though, so I might be a bit off,” Vinyl answered.

Twilight snorted. “A marine-themed nudist theme park Kinda doesn’t fit the aesthetic, if you ask me.”

“Well Twilight, what theme would you have picked?” Cheerilee asked innocently.

It took a moment for Twilight to think about an answer. “Well if it were up to me, I’d probably make it a fantasy themed park.”

“Aren’t there, like, five of those in Horsica?” Vinyl asked.

“And none in Equestria, which only validates my answer,” Twilight smiled.

“I don’t know, I would love to go to a music themed place,” Octavia replied dreamily. “Just think, being able to ride on music sheets, take a run on roller-coaster version of one of Bach’s creations, or maybe even a spin on a DJ turntable.”

“I spin those already, Octy, and let me tell you, it ain’t that impressive a thing to ride,” Vinyl snorted in reply. “I’d love to go to a space themed park. Just thinking about the rides they might put in is freaking awesome.”

“Space, wouldn’t you want to expand on the idea and just make it technology in general?” Twilight asked.

“Nah, then it’d be Tomorrowland,” Vinyl laughed. “So, Cheerilee, your turn what would you pick?”

Cheerilee thought about it for a moment. “I honestly would go to a comic book themed park.”

“That’s an interesting choice,” Octavia said carefully. “Were you into comics growing in?”

“Party-lee, are you kidding? She was the biggest nerd imaginable,” Vinyl laughed.

“Hey, being into comics doesn’t make you a nerd!” Twilight snapped.

“Don’t worry about it, Twilight,” Cheerilee said airily. “Vinyl’s a nerd too, she was big into Darkhorse. I was a Marvel kid.”

Twilight looked between Vinyl and Cheerilee. “Really, Well, Scratch, I’m learning more and more about you every time I see you.”

“Speaking of,” Cheerilee said, changing the subject. “Are the tabloids right about you two?”

Both Octavia and Vinyl laughed really hard for a moment. As the laughter subsided, Octavia answered, “No, no, no, we’re not a couple. We’re just good friends.”

“Yeah, the tabloids are only going crazy because of a prank the two of us are pulling on them. Just a little revenge for all those stupid articles,” Vinyl added.

Cheerilee laughed, “Same old Turn Tables always loves to have fun with the media.”

Twilight stretched her arms out and then adjusted her shirt, “So Vinyl, how long until we get there?”

“Not too long, just about another thirty minutes,” Vinyl replied

“By the way, Vinyl, you never did mention this, but are we renting an apartment or a condo?” Octavia asked.

“Neither, I managed to get us a house!” Vinyl replied with a smug grin.

“Are you kidding me?” Octavia yelped. “How were you able to afford that?!”

“Believe it or not they’re actually giving us this house as a thank you for me preforming there. Yup, turns out I’m actually getting them a lot of sales on resort tickets,” Vinyl smiled.

“So, essentially, we’re going here for free?” Cheerilee asked.

“Yep, and you’ll thank me even more when you find out normally the cost would run up to five hundred bucks,” Vinyl said.

“Wow, Vinyl, that’s really generous of you,” Twilight said in mild wonder.

“You’re welcome, Twilight.”

Soon enough the car arrived at Comp D’ Ace. From the outside it looked like a normal resort. But soon enough after they entered the town and both Twilight and Cheerilee saw what it really was. It was a normal town, but everyone in the town was completely naked. Cheerilee took a deep breath as the sight set in. Suddenly being so brave and bold seemed much harder. But a reassuring nod from Twilight bolstered her resolve again.

The car turned down a side street and then pulled up into the driveway of a one story house. The four girls exited the car and looked upon the house. It was a quaint dwelling with a very light pink front and reddish roof. The lawn was neat and some sunflowers were up by the windows.

“Well this is nice,” Twilight said, grabbing her luggage.

“Indeed. Is this a four bedroom place?” Octavia asked.

“Well, technically a two bedroom place, but they got four beds so we don’t have to double up. Oh, and they have three bathrooms so we shouldn’t have much trouble on that front,” Vinyl answered.

“Oh, okay. Well, that should be nice,” Octavia said as they walked in.

Much like the outside, the interior was quite quaint, nothing too important about it at all. The girls walked into the living room and Octavia closed the door behind them.

“Okay ladies, let’s get to our rooms, get unpacked, and then get these clothes off,” Twilight said

“Vinyl and I shall share a room. Cheerilee, do you mind bunking with Twilight?” Octavia asked.

“Oh, not all,” Cheerilee replied.

“Less talking, more unpacking,” Vinyl said, running into her room.

And the four girls headed off into the respective rooms. When Twilight and Cheerilee entered their room, they saw that indeed there were two beds.

“Well, at least Table’s wasn’t lying,” Cheerilee said.

“Okay, I take left you take right?” Twilight asked.

“That’s fine,” Cheerilee answered, heading to the right-side bed.

Twilight looked at the school teacher. “Last chance to back out, Are you really sure you want to do this?”

“Twilight, we’re here already, I don’t think I can just call it quits right now,” Cheerilee replied, shaking her head.

“I’m just making sure.”

“Thanks, but I don’t want to think about it too much,” Cheerilee answered. “It’s helping me cope.”

Twilight nodded. “Well, okay. Whatever works for you?”

Then with a flash of her magic, Twilight stripped her clothes off. Cheerilee took a step back from her bed in modest shock. Twilight was actually pretty nice to look at, a good set of hips and small breasts, but nothing about her was ugly in any way. Even her wings and tail looked cute, freed as they were from her clothing. She was actually pretty beautiful standing there in the buff.

When Twilight felt Cheerilee’s eyes upon her, she looked back. “Is there something wrong?”

“No nothing, just adjusting,” Cheerilee answered. “You got naked pretty fast.”

“Magic, it really helps sometimes. Would you like me to leave the room?” Twilight asked.

“Oh no, no, it’s okay. Here goes nothing.”

Cheerilee closed her eyes, gripped her dress, and pulled it off in one smooth movement. With her chest and C cups now exposed it wasn’t long before the shorts were off too. She felt a gentle breeze brushed against her but it quickly faded. All of this happened so fast that Cheerilee’s emotions didn’t have time to process what happened, which left her in a very calm state. Taking a deep breath, she opened her eyes.

Twilight was giving her a warm smile. “How do you feel?”

Cheerilee pondered the answer as she stood there. “Little cold, but I think I’m adjusting.”

“Good. Well welcome to the club, I guess,” Twilight said. “You…uh…you look good.”

“Thanks, you too Twilight,” Cheerilee replied back warmly. “Well, shall we go join Octy and Tables?”

“Yeah, let’s go before you change your mind,” Twilight teased.

“Yeah,” Cheerilee said, unable to really reply.

Then she and Twilight walked out of the room. Cheerilee kept her mind focused and away from the fact that she was now naked. Sure enough, when they exited the room they found Octavia and Vinyl waiting for them in the living room, nude as ever and with their purses.

Vinyl had great hips with breasts smaller than Twilight’s, while Octavia had the biggest chest but slim hips. Still, the two of them and Twilight looked very comfortable in their nudity, while Cheerilee felt incredibly stiff. Though, to be fair, they had been nudists a lot longer than she was.

When Vinyl spotted Cheerilee, she smiled. “Well you’re looking nude. How do you feel?”

“Chilly,” Cheerilee answered honestly. “And a bit, uh, edgy, but I’m ready to go. Where to first?”

“Well, I’m up for some exercise. Want to head over to the sports complex?” Octavia suggested.

“Actually, why don’t we just take a walk around, see the place?” Twilight added.

“Are you kidding, a place like this is so big it’d take us a day to see half of it by walking. No, let’s go get something to eat first. I’m starved.” Vinyl said.

“Okay, I’m game for that, how about the mall afterward?” Cheerilee said. “It would give us a good walk too, Octavia.”

“That actually does sound rather nice. Alright, we’ll do that. I’ll drive,” Octavia decided.

The four nodded and headed for the door. That’s when Cheerilee felt a bit uneasy. Being nude indoors, in front of friends, was one thing, but outside? That was something else. But she had to do it now, no turning back. So once Vinyl opened the door, Cheerilee was the first one out.

Applebloom shook with nerves. Earlier she had been sure about doing the bet. Now that the actual time had come, nothing told her to do it save for pride. But even that part of her was cautious about doing this. She was going to walk outside naked, do chores naked, and work the farm butt naked. Breathing heavily, Applebloom looked at the dress she still had on. The nightgown was itchy, yes, and a bit uncomfortable without underwear, but it was still the only thing protecting her innocence. Yet she had to remove it.

Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo were already doing their chores and out of the house. Applebloom was standing by the door with a cart filled with empty baskets outside waiting for her. The baskets were for the food crops that Applebloom had to pick so the family could have meals. Picking corn and apples was her first task, and then she was to return home to clean the house with the other girls.

Applebloom bit her lower lip. All the thoughts she’d had during her early morning shower came back. What if someone saw her, what if Applejack or Big Mac came home early, what if Silver Spoon or - Celestia forbid - Diamond Tiara caught her, or what if she got lost out there and couldn’t find her way back in? She could keep the nightgown in the cart, but what if the cart rolled away? Then again having the nightgown might raise more questions than if she was outside naked. What if it started to rain? What if she got really sick?

As she reached for the door handle, everything in her head told her to open the door and shout to Scootaloo that she wasn’t going to do it. But then something crept into her mind: her pride. If she said no, she would probably regret it later on. Included in those what if thoughts from earlier was the knowledge that other kids had done this, so why hadn’t she? Applebloom right now had the best opportunity to perform this task. And nothing but her fears stood in the way. And maybe she could get her cutie mark in bravery. It was a valid idea; if she did this it would be one of the bravest acts she had ever done. And who knows, it could be fun.

That sealed it; she was going to do this. Taking a glance out the window, Applebloom saw that no one was within sight of the house. So she was alone and knew that neither Sweetie Belle nor Scootaloo were gonna pull a fast one on her. This was it.

Applebloom took a deep breath. “Here goes nothing.”

She grabbed the hem of her dress and pulled it off. Folding up the dress, Applebloom left it on the chair near the door in a neat square. A gentle breeze then brushed against her fur, making the poor girl jump in shock. But the breeze passed quickly and Applebloom straightened out. She walked back to the door and gripped the handle. The nerves returned, this time stronger, because she was now naked as the day she was born.

With a very uneasy breath, Applebloom turned the handle and opened the door. To her relief, the outside was still vacant of life. And to her surprise, she felt the heat of the day hit her in force.

“Wow,” Applebloom muttered, “I’m actually glad I’m doing this, this heat is unbearable.”

It was a sarcastic comment at best, as Applebloom had a soft tremble as she walked outside. Her fur rustled a bit as the breeze caught her again, this time from the wind. It felt weird, very weird at first. For Applebloom it was hard to describe going out to the outside word naked. The feelings she usually got on her arms and legs, which she often had exposed due to her short pants and shirt, were now being felt all over, even on her breasts and special place. That was the surprising shock, and it felt extremely unnerving.

But at the same time, there was an element of fun to it as well. None of the feelings she was getting felt bad, just different. Her nerves began to subside, but only just. After standing out on the front porch getting used to the new sensations she had felt, Applebloom took a look around. It was a gorgeous day. There were few clouds and barely any wind, and the sun shone on Equestria just strong enough to make being nude comfortably warm.

Applebloom walked off the porch and grabbed the cart. Soon she began to walk towards the corn fields and it didn’t take long for her to arrive. That’s when she remembered her first fear, being spotted. The corn field, much like the apple orchard, was very close to the main road. Anyone walking down the road could see her from the first two rows of crop. Worse still, once she was done with the corn, she had to cross that road to go into the orchard.

The chances of being seen scared Applebloom. But she couldn’t turn back; she was outside already and in the corn field. So she began her work. Much to her surprise, nothing had changed. Picking corn was the same as she had always done; there was nothing unusual about it. The only difference was her, she was naked. And that was it. As she picked the crop Applebloom thought about her situation: she was naked and picking food, nothing indecent about it. There was no one with a camera recording anything for lewd purposes, and furthermore she felt more nervous than excited, at least excited in other ways.

As she reached the end of the first road, she realized she was actually having fun. Granny Smith had a rule about being indecent, a rule that Applejack enforced severely. Now she was breaking that rule.

“Wow,” Applebloom muttered, “This is actually pretty fun. I never knew it.”

She turned onto the second row and began her work. Soon she was half way down and totally absorbed in her work. The fact that she was doing the working nude had gone from a horrid abomination to a point of amusement.

“I don’t know why ponies hate this so much,” Applebloom smiled, “It’s actually very helpful, especially on hot days like this. And plus no clothes to get wet from my sweat. That means very little to wash later!”

Just then she heard two people talking. At first she thought it was Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo talking. But then as the discussion became clearer she realized it wasn’t. Now her nerves returned as exactly what she had feared had come about. Applebloom, midway through plucking a cob off the stalk, began to panic.

“Oh sweet Celestia what will I do?” she gabbled. “What am I gonna do, I’m gonna get caught!”

The conversation got louder; it was only a matter of time before she was caught. She began to hyperventilate as she spun around looking for a way to get out. Then she spotted the cart, and quickly dove behind it. Holding her breath, Applebloom kept her body hidden and head down. It didn’t take long for her to realize who it was that were walking past.

“Oh, it’s Carrot Top and Derpy,” she sighed in relief. “They must be socializing.”

Carrot Top and Derpy Hooves were too busy talking to notice Applebloom, who was invisible behind the kart regardless. Soon enough they had walked past and were out of earshot. Applebloom sighed with relief. Her heartbeat began to even out and she took a welcome breath of air. The adrenaline still rushing through her was still going; she had actually gotten some enjoyment out of getting nearly caught.

A warm and yet devilish smile appeared on her face. “This thrill might actually make this all worth it.”

But pretty soon that rush went away and she had no more close calls. Applebloom managed to get the food picked and shipped over to the house without any clothes. Finally she managed to clean the house before days end. All the while, she began to enjoy her time naked and completely forget that she was nude. Sure, she had some reminders whenever a gust of wind blew by, but even then she became used to it.

By the midafternoon the chores at Sweet Apple Acres were all over. Meeting up with the other Crusaders in the living room, Applebloom was kinda surprised to see them quite cheerful.

“Howdy guys how were your day?” she asked.

“Not bad, AB,” Sweetie Belle said. “Those chores weren’t too tough.”

“Yeah, I actually had an easier time than I thought cleaning out the farm. I got done so early I helped Sweetie Belle with her chores,” Scootaloo said.

“Yeah, I did alright, too,” Applebloom said.

“Did you run into anyone?” Scootaloo asked.

“Nope, Derpy and Carrot passed by but other than that, nothing,” Applebloom said.

“Oh that must’ve been torture, did they see you?” Scootaloo asked again.

“No, I leapt behind the cart before they could,” Applebloom answered sitting down in the chair.

“How did it feel?” Sweetie asked.

“Very weird at first,” Applebloom answered honestly. “I was really scared to do it at first and then again with Derpy and Carrot Top passed. But as I got used to it, I really forgot about it. I have to admit, it’s quite comfortable.”

“So, you passed day one, I guess that means I’ll have to join you tomorrow,” Sweetie Belle said with no trace of nervousness.

“Great,” Applebloom said. The trio sat there for a moment before she spoke again. “So what do you girls want to do now?”

“Shouldn’t you be putting your clothes on first?” Scootaloo asked quizzically.

Applebloom looked down for a moment. She actually thought about that question as she had gotten used to being naked. And the thought of putting something back on actually made her sad. Besides, she was going have to get nude tomorrow and Sunday. So maybe it would be a better idea to stay naked.

“Well, I actually thought I might stay this way,” she said, shifting in place.

“Really,” Sweetie asked. “Why?”

“Yeah Applebloom, bet’s over for today. You can get dressed now,” Scootaloo added.

“I know that’s true and all, but...” Applebloom started still shifting in her seat. It took her a moment to choose her words, but before she could Scootaloo spoke up.

“You can’t tell me you’re turned on by this.” Scootaloo said with a mild tone of disgust in her voice.

“No, it’s not that!” Applebloom hastily denied. “It’s just that…I’m comfortable.” Silence fell over the trio for a moment. After a few moments, Applebloom continued, “I know it’s weird and ain’t exactly natural, but that’s how I feel. Although, if you girls want me to put my clothes back on I will.”

Sweetie looked at Scootaloo. “Well, she will just have to get naked again tomorrow, what would be the point of putting the clothes back on?”

“Yeah, but what if we have to go into town and get something? What if someone comes?” Scootaloo countered. “She nearly got caught with Derpy and Carrot Top today. Who knows what tomorrow or Sunday will bring.”

“I will admit though, it was kinda fun dodging those two,” Applebloom muttered. “Kinda like sneaking around the house with an arm full of candy you swiped.”

Scootaloo looked back at Applebloom. “Okay, that’s kinda weird. And yet cool at the same time.”

“So it’s okay with you Scootaloo?” Applebloom asked.

Scootaloo was silent for a second before answering. “You know, that zip line we built way back when is still hanging in the forest. You girls up for another thrill ride?”

Both Sweetie Belle and Applebloom whooped an affirmative.

Cheerilee smiled ear to ear in pure enjoyment. The quartet sat in the outside of an ice cream parlor enjoying the perfect day. The sun was shining, not a cloud in the sky, and the breeze had all but stopped. She was enjoying a lovely strawberry sundae with a milkshake. Twilight was gently eating a pomegranate yogurt with a soda. Octavia and Vinyl each had a gluten free chocolate frosty soft cone. Nearby was the Comp D ‘Ace beach and Godiva Cove.

The girls had planned to go there after eating their food, but for right now they were enjoying themselves. But what made Cheerilee smile brightly was that they were still naked. What an absolutely naughty and yet lifting experience. During the drive over, Vinyl had gotten lost and they had pulled up to a couple to ask directions. The couple was extremely nice in giving directions and they even struck up a conversation, and to Cheerilee it was the most sincere conversation she’d had in years. Twilight summed it up well when they left the couple to hit the parlor.

“You see, the most genuine thing about nudists is that they’re very open people. Since no one wears clothes, there are no restrictions, no limitations, and best of all complete sincerity. You’ll get your bad apples here and there, but again that’s true with everything.” She had explained.

And Cheerilee believed every word of it now. The teacher took another spoonful of her sundae and looked out towards the beach. There were plenty of hot guys there, though the single ones were a dime a dozen and even then she wasn’t sure that they were alone. That saddened her a bit, but only just. Vinyl was going to be performing tomorrow and there was sure to be single guys there.

So Cheerilee looked back at her meal. “This isn’t half bad.”

“Indeed, I must admit this is the best ice cream I’ve had since I was a little girl,” Octavia agreed.

“Well usually beachfront ice cream parlors are pretty good, and they kinda have to be,” Twilight replied.

“True that, Twilight,” Vinyl added.

“Vinyl, I thought you were aiming to amend your alliteration annoyance,” Cheerilee said, giggling. Noting the looks Octavia and Twilight were sending her way, she explained, “She did that in college all the time.”

“Hey, honey, I haven’t had this habit in a while.” Vinyl smirked.

“Oh believe me, I know. And it gets even worse when you hear her do it in her sleep,” Octavia groaned.

“Oh really,” Cheerilee asked slyly. “Are you two sure you aren’t a couple?”

Octavia shook her head. “Goodness, no, Vinyl’s nice and all don’t, mistake me. But she’s not my type.”

“Octavia’s straight Party-lee, and my boy and I are quite happy right now,” Vinyl smiled.

“Wait, you have a boyfriend?” Twilight gasped in surprise.

“Yeah, met him a few months back in Manehattan,” Vinyl answered.

“Then why isn’t he here?” Cheerilee asked, puzzled.

“They had a fight; he couldn’t get out of a booking,” Octavia answered for Vinyl.

“Hey!” Vinyl snapped, before subsiding. “Yeah, he’s a standup comedian, name’s Sikes.”

“Oh I’ve heard of him, he’s actually pretty funny. Although I didn’t know he was into nudism,” Cheerilee said. “But I guess he’s hiding that, too?”

“Yeah,” Vinyl sighed. “Shame about the taboo, but hey, that’s for another time, right?”

“Indeed. Now shall we finish up and then go for a swim in the waves?” Octavia asked.

“Yeah I’m down for that,” Cheerilee said, attacking her ice cream with renewed vigor.

Author's Note

To those who favorited this because they thought they might see a Vinyl/Octavia romance, i do appologize right now. Honestly i found some amusement when people were favoriting this because of that because i had yet to even directly mention the two as a couple asside from that tabloid bit. So if you're gonna wait for that i do appologize. i will also rule out that there will not be an OC in this story that will be a romantic opposite for Cheerilee but that is all i will say right now.

Part Two comming soon with Applebloom trying someting she always wanted to do and now might have the chance. Cheerilee meanwhile might get her first possible lead.
