Rainbow sighed as she gazed at the cloud filled sky resigning herself to the fact that she was going to miss her lunch date with Twilight. Again. With a resigned sigh, Rainbow flew into the air and began her tedious job of bringing the cloud numbers down to the regulated number for that day’s forecast. As she worked, Rainbow felt none of the usual thrill she got from flying, and she got irritated at the fact she was working, when she could be off doing her training for the Wander Bolts, or something more fun like going out with Twilight.
By the time Rainbow had busted the last cloud it was well past noon, and Rainbow trudged up to the library’s front door preparing herself for the earful Twilight was going to give her about proper scheduling and planning. Rainbow gave the library’s door a quick knock with her hoof, and sat back on her haunches staring at the ground as she waited for the Alicorn to answer the door.
After five minutes of waiting Rainbow was about to leave when the front door opened revealing a very annoyed looking Twilight. “It’s not fun waiting around for ponies to show up is it Rainbow. But five minutes is nothing compared to an hour of waiting. I waited an hour for you Rainbow, I was going to wait some more but I had responsibilities I needed to take care of... Rainbow are you alright?”
While Twilight had been lecturing her, Rainbow’s ears and head drooped until her nose was practically touching the ground, and unspilled tears were glistening in her eyes. “I’m sorry I keep stuffing up Twi...” Rainbow sniffled trying her best to keep her tears unshed, but it was a loosing battle and tears slid down her cheeks. “I try to get better work hours, but I need the extra bits and...MMPH?!” Rainbow was cut off as Twilight pulled her into a soft but sincere hug and kissed her deeply.
Rainbow felt the stress of the last few days melt away at her lover’s touch, and wanted nothing more than for this moment to last forever, being held like this by Twilight. Unfortunately the moment passed too fast as Twilight pulled back, and gazed at Rainbow with a mixture of sympathy and concern.
“What’s bothering you, Rainbow?”
Rainbow wiped her eyes and stared dejectedly at the ground. “I’ve just been under a lot of stress lately, Twi. I’ve been pulling double shifts, and I can’t concentrate on my job properly, I keep messing up our date plans, I’m not sleeping that well, except when I’m holding you of course...”
Twilight’s horn glowed and Rainbow gave a small ‘eep’ of surprise as Twilight used her magic to lift the pegasus off the ground and carry her inside the library. “Why didn’t you say anything to me sooner, Dashie?” Before Rainbow could answer, she was deposited on the couch, and Twilight sat down next to her nuzzling her cheek. “You do know you can talk to me about anything, Right?”
“I know Twi,” Rainbow muttered, “I just don’t feel right laying my problems on you.”
Twilight extended a wing and pulled her pegasus into a tight wing hug. “That’s why I’m here Dashie. I’m your marefriend, and that makes your problems, my problems. So, want to talk about it?”
Rainbow hesitated than relaxed into her marefriend’s embrace. She had held Twilight like this countless times, but it wasn’t very often Twilight had held her the same way, and Rainbow had to admit it felt really good. “It’s my job Twi, I just don’t seem to enjoy it anymore, I used to love busting clouds it was fun, but these days everything is just so boring.” Rainbow sighed and looked down at the ground.
Twilight rubbed Rainbow’s back comfortingly with her wing, causing the pegasus to giggle softly. “How long has it been since you’ve had a vacation?”
Rainbow pursed her lips thoughtfully and shrugged. “Don’t know.”
“Well that’s your problem Rainbow, you’re becoming burnt out. It’s not healthy working so hard without taking a break once in a while.”
“Well it’d be nice if I didn’t have so many responsibilities for a while.”
Twilight shifted so she was facing Rainbow. “No responsibilities, huh?”
“Well that’s not exactly what I meant...”
“I know, Dashie. But I’ve been studying...certain things...and I think I can help you de-stress over the next few days.”
“What kinda things?” Rainbow asked looking quite interested.
Twilight blushed, and looked away from her marefriend. “Well...what do you know about...pet play?”
“W-what?”
Twilight took a deep breath trying her best to work through the next few minutes with the right amount of tact and persuasiveness. “Pet play Rainbow. It’s when...”
“I know what it is Twi. It’s just...you want to treat me like a pet?”
“Rainbow, I know this seems strange, but I’ve read pet play if done right, is very therapeutic and relaxing. All it is, is you placing yourself in my hooves for me to take care of you. You don’t have to worry about any responsibilities or anything, it’s just me taking care of you.”
“I don’t know Twi,” Rainbow muttered.
“How about you think about it for a while?” suggested Twilight. “But before you make a final decision, I’d like to have at least one ‘pet’ session with you...”
“I’ll do it,” Rainbow said causing Twilight to look at her with surprise.
“But you didn’t even think about it.”
“Well this is clearly something that would make you happy Twi, so I’m willing to give this “pet play” thing a try at least once.”
“O-okay, well I’d have to get a few things ready, so why don’t you go make yourself something to eat and come up with the pet name you’d like me to call you by.”
Rainbow bit her lip thoughtfully. “How ‘bout something simple like ‘Pet”
“‘Pet’” Twilight said approvingly. “Very well, Pet, go make yourself something to eat and when I come back from my errands we’ll begin.”
Rainbow walked into the kitchen, and by the time she had made herself a couple of daisy and daffodil sandwiches Twilight was already gone, so Rainbow pulled a Daring Do book from the shelf to read while she ate her lunch.
----------------------------------
“Rainbow, I’m home,” Twilight called out as she walked through the library’s front with several bags in her magical grasp. “Rainbow?” Twilight paused mid step when she walked into the lounge room, and smiled when she saw Rainbow sleeping soundly with a book laying open on her chest.
Resiting the urge to nuzzle her adorable looking marefriend, Twilight placed her bags down and levitated a collar and leash from one of them and placed them on Rainbow. Once she was done, Twilight took the second bag to the bathroom, and the third to her bedroom, and walked back into the library nuzzling her marefriend awake. “It’s time to wake up Pet,” Twilight muttered softly.
“Twi, that tickles,” Rainbow mumbled tiredly before turning over. Twilight’s horn glowed and she tugged softly on the end of Rainbow’s leash. “What the...” the pegasus muttered, opening her eyes and following the leash up to where it was being held in Twilight’s magic.
“It’s time for your bath Pet.”
“Bath?” Rainbow repeated, rubbing her eyes, wandering why she was wearing a collar and leash, and why Twi was giving it a patient tug.
“Yes Pet, I’m going to give you a bath. You’re still a bit ripe from busting all those clouds.”
Rainbow sniffed under her foreleg and winced at the body odor. “Heh, I guess I could do with a bath.” Twilight began walking to the bathroom, and when the leash tugged at the collar Rainbow began walking with her. “So Twi, when’d you get the leash and collar.”
“Oh, that’s what I went on my errands for, I also got a few extra surprises I thought you might like.”
Rainbow’s ears perked up at that. “What kinda things.”
Twilight secured the leash around one of the taps in the bathroom and nuzzled Rainbow’s neck. “You’ll find out soon enough Pet, but for now let’s get you cleaned up.” Twilight gestured for Rainbow to step into the shower, and the pegasus gave a sigh as warm water began pouring over her body. Twilight levitated a bottle of shampoo and a bottle of conditioner form the bag, and Rainbow hummed contently as Twilight began massaging the shampoo into her fur. “Feeling better Pet?”
“This feels great Twi,” Rainbow purred.
“I thought you might like this. It’s a special kind of shampoo designed to relax muscles after a hard day’s work.”
“Hmmmmm.......I wish I had this shampoo at home.”
Twilight gave a little chuckle. “Don’t worry Pet, you’ll always have the best treatment from me.” As Twilight said that, she used her magic to massage two pressure points under Rainbow’s wings causing the pegasus to relax her feathered appanages, and moan with with pleasure. “Rainbow,” Twilight said with concern, and breaking her role playing. “You’re carrying a lot of tension, why didn’t you come to me sooner?”
Rainbow was taken off guard as she heard the concern in Twilight’s voice, and saw the worry in Twilight’s eyes. “I’m sorry Twilight, I just didn’t want to lay my problems on you.”
“I’m your marefriend Dashie! Your problems are my problems, when will you learn and accept that?”
Rainbow sighed and her ears drooped downward. “Sorry I keep upsetting you Twi...”
“Just promise me if you ever have any other problems, either mental or physical, you’ll tell me.”
Rainbow nodded. “I promise Twi.”
Twilight went back to massaging Rainbow’s wing joints causing her lover to coo approvingly and her tongue to hang out of her mouth. “You’re a good pet Dashie,” Twilight whispered lovingly in Rainbow’s ears. “And good pets get rewarded.” Twilight’s magic slid down Rainbow’s back and under the pegasus’ tail to message her warm wet spot of pleasure. “But good pets need to be obedient, so no cumming without my permission.”
Rainbow whimpered as Twilight’s magic slipped inside her pussy and began vibrating softly inside her, but only fast enough to provide a little stimulation, and not provide the relief she would soon be needing. “Let’s get you rinsed off and conditioned Pet,” said Twilight who levitated the shower head from its holding and began directing its spray over her lover’s soapy body.
“Nnnngggg...stop teasing me with your magic Twi.” Twilight directed the shower to Rainbow’s marehood, and the pegasus gasped as the water tickled her clit.
“Don’t worry, if you continue to be a good pet, you’ll get your reward.” Twilight turned the water off, and levitated a towel from the rack and used a heating spell on the towel before wrapping it around Dash’s body. “Comfortable?”
“Mmmmmm...” Was Rainbow’s only response.
“Come on, let’s get your wings preened.” Rainbow shivered in anticipation and Twilight’s eyes widened. “You’re not cold are you, Pet?”
“N-no, just a little excited. I love it when you preen my wings.”
Twilight smiled and tugged on the leash to lead Rainbow to their room. “Well, like I said before, I’m going to take the best possible care of you, which is why I got you this.” Twilight pulled a small bottle of liquid from a bag on her bag and Rainbow gave it a curious gaze.
“What’s that?”
Twilight pulled the lid off and a sweet aroma filled the room. “It’s a special preening oil, it can be applied directly to the feathers, or the preener can hold a small amount in their mouth applying it to the feathers while they preen. The oil also acts as a stimulant to enhance the experience, and provides excellent extra protection. You ready Pet?”
Rainbow ruffled her feathers in preparation for their preening, and Twilight tied the leash around one of the bed-legs, she was about to take a sip of the preening oil when she saw the disarray that Rainbow’s wings had become. Even after the shower there were flecks of dandruff in Rainbow’s wings, and several loose and bent feathers that had no place being in the speedster’s wings.
“Rainbow, when was the last time you preened your wings?” Twilight asked, walking back in front of Rainbow.
The pegasus scuffed her front hoof nervously on the floor and looked anywhere but her lover’s gaze. “I-I try my best to keep them clean, but with all the double shifts I’ve been pulling, I just haven’t had enough time, and when I do have some time, I’m usually too tired.”
“Don’t worry Pet,” Twilight said, kissing Rainbow on the lips, “I’m going to make your wings perfect again.”
Rainbow shivered in ecstasy as Twilight spread a generous amount of the preening oil one of her wings, and she moaned quietly as the oil began taking effect.
“What’s in that stuff?” Rainbow asked, “it feels sooo-gah!-amazing.”
Twilight’s horn glowed and she began using her magic to gently massage the oil into Rainbow’s wing almost reducing the pegasus to a drooling mess. “It contains several different chemicals and natural oils all designed to stimulate the nerves in a pegasus’ wings making them extra sensitive.”
Once the oil was evenly spread over Rainbow’s wings, Twilight began softly plucking the damaged and dead feathers out and placing them to one side, before moving onto removing the dandruff and other foreign debris.
Rainbow for her part was in a realm of orgasmic bliss, each tongue stroke or feather plucked sent an electric tingle of pleasure through her nerves down her back, and into the special fun spot beneath her tail. Twilight sensually and methodically licked every and cleaned every feather on her wing, and by the time Twilight was done, it was all Rainbow could do to stop herself from dropping to the ground, and tipping herself over the edge with her hoof.
“I forgot to mention,” Twilight whispered seductively in her ear, and giving it a small nip. “The oil also contains a powerful aphrodisiac.” Rainbow’s eyes widened and she looked desperately at her lover pleading silently for relief. “Don’t worry Pet, I said I’ll take care of you. Lay back.” Twilight instructed.
Rainbow did as she was told, and Twilight kissed her softly on the lips and lingered there for a moment, before moving down to her neck and giving it a small nip beneath her collar. Rainbow gasped in pain and Twilight’s eyes shot open in alarm. “I’m so sorry Dashie! I swear I didn’t mean to hurt you.”
Rainbow ran a reassuring through Twilight’s mane. “It’s all good Twi, it actually felt kinda nice, could you do it again.”
Twilight blinked at her. “You want me to do it again?” Rainbow blushed and nodded. “O-okay. But promise me you’ll tell me if I hurt you too much.”
“Will do babe, keep going.”
Twilight moved back down to her lover’s neck, and gave it another nip earning a little gasp from Rainbow. She gave the area she nipped a small comforting kiss, before moving to Rainbow’s collar bone and began nipping and kissing her way to Rainbow’s un-preened wing.
Rainbow squirmed under Twilight, and with each nip and kiss the Alicorn gave her, Rainbow felt the fire in her marehood grow brighter and brighter. “Could you get me off first Twi?” Rainbow pleaded. “I’m dying here.”
Twilight looked into Rainbow’s magenta eyes, and when she saw the desperate need for release reflecting back at her, all of Twilight’s plans of teasing her marefriend evaporated from her thoughts. “Okay Pet.” Twilight said, before running her tongue down Rainbow’s chest and stomach to her dripping marehood. Twilight stopped at Rainbow’s erect clit and Rainbow gave a loud gasp and arched her back as Twilight licked the small nub.
“More Twi!”
Twilight was only too happy oblige, and she moved further down running her tongue over the entrance of Rainbow’s pussy causing her lover to gasp loudly and thrust her hips forward trying to get more of that sweet release she was so desperate for. Twilight began drawing numbers over Rainbow’s pussy with her tongue, and the cyan mare threw her head back in pleasure, breathing heavily as she felt herself about to tip over the edge. But just as she was about to get the release she so desperately wanted, Twilight pulled away, and Rainbow gave a small mew of disappointment.
“Why’d you stop Twi?”
“Because Pet, I want you to understand how much I love you.”
Before Rainbow could say anything else, Twilight kissed her deeply and passionately on lips, before returning to her work on Rainbow’s pussy. Twilight’s tongue thrust deeply into her lover’s juice filled hole, and began mercilessly assaulting it with everything she had.
“Don’t stop Twi!” Rainbow pleaded, “it feels so good, keep going, please don’t st...” Rainbow’s back arched as pure electric pleasure coursed through her body, and she let out a deafening scream as Twilight’s magic enveloped her clit and began vibrating violently. “Keep going Twi!” Rainbow said wrapping her hind legs around Twilight’s head and locking the Alicorn’s muzzle over her pussy.
“MMPH?”
“Just keep going Twi.” Rainbow pleaded gyrating herself against her lover’s mouth.
Twilight was quite happy to get more of her lover’s sweet and intoxicating juices, and she began flicking her tongue over Rainbow’s clit, as the pegasus continued to use her face to pleasure herself. Twilight’s tongue made its way back into Rainbow’s marehood, and she began lapping up the sweet nectar that freely flowed into her mouth.
Rainbow was in orgasmic heaven, the aphrodisiac in the preening oil was still affecting her, and she wanted nothing more than to fall back into the mind numbing world of pleasure only Twilight could take her to. Twilight’s tongue began exploring deeper into her cavity, and Rainbow began thrusting harder against her lover’s face. “I-I’m so close Twi, harder!”
Twilight’s horn glowed, and she began using her magic to massage several sensitive pressure points in Rainbow’s wings and it was enough to push the pegasus over the edge. Rainbow screamed, and she held Twilight’s head in place as she rode out her orgasm. Extreme tingles of pleasure coursed through Rainbow’s body like lightning, and her mouth opened in a soundless scream of ecstasy. An explosion of mare juice covered Twilight’s muzzle, but it didn’t stop her from hungrily licking up the result’s of her Rainbow’s orgasm, and continuing her assault on her clit, before Dash released her, panting heavily.
“Well Pet, enjoy yourself?”
Rainbow smiled and pulled Twilight into a deep kiss, moaning as she tasted her sweet juices on the Alicorn’s tongue. “I can’t wait for the rest of my vacation, babe.”
Rainbow knew she was a horrible marefriend, that fact that she was standing on a cloud on the outskirts of Ponyville instead of on her date with Twilight proved that she was a horrible marefriend. Everything had been fine three months ago when she had started dating the librarian, but that was until Twilight had started trying to get closer to her, and closeness was something that scared Rainbow.
“Stupid Rainbow,” the pegasus muttered to herself kicking the cloud she was standing on. Rainbow tried to think of a way to fix this situation, but nothing she could think of would be enough to fix the royally bucked up situation she had created with Twi. But Rarity should be able to help, the unicorn had all kinds of romantic and crazy advice.
With a goal clear in her mind, the pegasus shot off towards Ponyville and landed in front of Rarity’s shop a minute later. She hesitated a moment before knocking on the door. There was the sound of several things crashing, and a unicorn muttering some extremely unladylike words before the door was flung open.
“What is it Rainbow, I’m extremely busy at the moment.”
“Sorry Rares, I-I just need some help with something.”
“Oh, okay, well, I suppose I could spare a few minutes.Why don’t you come on in darling?” Rarity stepped aside holding the door open for the pegasus to step through. “Now then darling, what seems to be the problem?”
Rainbow sighed and sat down on her haunches. “I messed up Rares, I messed up big time, and Twilight’s probably going to break up with me now.”
Rarity blinked at her friend. “Okay, well, can you tell me what you did.”
“It’s more of what I haven’t done.” Rainbow sighed once more and scuffed the floor with her hoof. “Twilight keeps wanting more intimately from me, but...for some reason...”
“You’re scared of commitment, aren’t you darling?”
Rainbow nodded. “But not just the commitment, it’s the intimacy, you know? the snuggling, the staying up late at night talking with each other, communication. I’m just no good at this stuff, and Twi wants that from me. I don’t know what to do.”
Rarity pursed her lips, and tapped her chin thoughtfully. “Well darling, there’s really only two options I can really think of to fix this situation. One, you break up with Twi and save yourself future heartache, or two, you face your fears and tell Twilight what you’ve just told me. At least that way you both can work on a way to fix this together.”
Rainbow shook her head. “I can’t loose my marefriend Rarity, but I’m afraid of opening myself up to her at the same time...”
“Then say that to her darling. At least that way she knows you have fears of intimacy, and she won’t be thinking you’re not interested in her.”
Rainbow’s eyes widened and she suddenly knew what she had to do. “Rarity, you’re a genius!” Rainbow shot out the door and flew towards the restaurant where Twilight was waiting for her.
---------------
Twilight sighed dejectedly as she pulled the last petal off the bouquet of flowers and watched it drift slowly down, just as her heart was. She had been waiting for half an hour for the pegasus to show up, but past experiences and statistics should have told her Rainbow wasn’t going to be there for their date. Twilight stood and was about to leave, when a multicolored blur shot through the air and landed in front of her.
“Twi, wait, I’m here!” Rainbow panted. “Please let me explain.” Twilight was tempted to just leave Rainbow like the pegasus had left her but decided to give her marefriend one more chance, for the sake of their relationship. “I know I’ve been a terrible marefriend, and I know you deserve better than me, it’s just...” Rainbow’s throat suddenly felt very dry, and she felt as though the entire restaurant was staring at her. “It’s just...I’m afraid.”
Twilight was about to say something but Rainbow held up a hoof to stop her. “Please don’t interrupt, this is really hard for me.” Twilight nodded, and gestured for Rainbow to continue. “I really want to be with you Twi, you’re an amazing friend, and an even more amazing marefriend. It’s just, I find it really hard to open myself up to you... I-I can’t do this.” Rainbow muttered turning to walk away.
Twilight started to walk after the pegasus, but Rainbow came to sudden stop, and turned around with a determined look in her eyes. “Twi I’m just going to come out and say it. I’m scared of commitment. But I’m more scared of losing you. You’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me and I don’t want that to end.”
Rainbow extended a wing, and Twilight’s eyes widened. “Rainbow What are you?...” With a loud whimper, and a visible wince, Rainbow tugged on one of her main flight feathers and pulled it free from her her wing, before placing it on the table in front of Twilight.
“Twilight. Will you be my special somepony?”
