"Just, a little over to the left... if you don't mind that is." a soft voice asked sweetly.
"How's this?"
A hum, then a reply. "Maybe just a little bit to the right."
A groan, then shifting noises. "Better?"
"Yes!" the female voice cried, though it was more of a whisper. "Now shove it in, as deep as you can, okay?"
"I don't think it's going to fit Fluttershy."
She titled her head at me. "What do you mean?"
"Its too big!" I told her, gesturing to the length of what I was grasping onto. "And the hole's too small."
"I'm sure it'll fit, you just have to wedge it in." She spoke in a soft whisper, sometimes she was too quiet but I had not the heart to tell her such.
With a resigned sigh, I was going to go back to the task at hand before extremely loud laughter broke my train of thought. Dropping the pole I was holding onto, Fluttershy and I looked around for the source and found it coming from a cloud up above. Lo and behold, I saw a rainbow tail hanging off of it.
"What are you laughing at?!" I yelled up at her, making Flutters flinch from the volume of my voice.
I saw magenta eyes peek out from the cloud cover, belonging to a face with a massive grin. "Dude! did you seriously not hear yourself just now!" She laughed, clutching her stomach and tumbling off the cloud as she flared out her wings, catching herself before she fell to what would no doubt be a painful injury. "Freakin hilarious!"
Tilting my head in question, I thought back to what me and Fluttershy talked about. A moment passed... then another... my eyes widened before I sputtered out a reply. "S-shut up Dash!" I crossed my arm and looked at her pointedly, leave it to Dash to stalk me and Flutters and make wisecracks.
Not my fault I unintentionally talk dirty.
With another guffaw Dash took off towards Ponyville, leaving both me and Fluttershy behind. That mare, I swear. I sighed, followed by a chuckle. That rhymed.
"Um... Lee." a dainty voice spoke up from behind me. Turning around I saw Fluttershy standing by her broken fence with a sheepish expression on her face, which is pretty much her neutral face all the time. I rarely ever see the shy fragile Pegasus with any other kind of expression. "The fence? if you don't mind that is." She quickly added, scuffling the ground with her hoof.
With a smile, I turned back to the fence and grabbed ahold of the pole before lifting it up and attempting to drive it into the ground. Helping Fluttershy build her new fence?
No problem at all.

I... was a very imaginative child when I was younger, I used to imagine being sent to other worlds through a magical portal and stuff like that. But, in this case it wasn't so much as a portal... my arrival in Equestria was, probably the most embarrassing thing to ever happen to me. Instead of it being a... clean sort of portal kind of thing you see in shows and fanfictions, I was uh... taking a shower at the time, just washing my hair, then the water stopped.
Of course this brought up the question, what happened to my water? The most sensible course of action is to open one's eyes and check the shower head. This wouldn't be the first time my shower head has conked out on me, as well as the crap water pressure as the apartment I lived in was a shite one. But as of now, my face was covered in delicious bubbly watermelony suds, so I had to rely on blind-grabbing everything. Once I reached out to grab my shower head... it felt... furry... wet and furry.
This brought up another question... just what in the heck had gotten into my apartment? New York, while a big place didn't necessarily have many critters that would waltz right into one's home and into their shower... let alone be this big. Naturally I freak out, and by freak out I mean stumble backward until I end up almost drowning.
Turns out where I somehow ended up in Canterlot's Royal bathhouse... as Princess Luna and Celestia was using it... and the furry wet thing I grabbed was Celestia's face...
Yeah... first contact with humanity, and I practically grab her face while I'm butt naked. How nice, amirite?
So, after a week of being confined butt naked in a tiny cell, I was set free and guarded for a bit. Eventually though, after some testing by Twilight Sparkle, several interrogations, a strange party thrown by a pony named Pinkie Pie and being guarded by a weird Bat Pony mare named Swift Flight who kept asking me... personal questions about my wang. I was allowed to be set free full on, of course Princess Celestia apologized for putting me in her dungeon after learning how I came to be in this world.
We never spoke of that day again... unless the teasing by Princess Luna is anything to go by. I swear, she's such a goober sometimes. Don't mean I don't love her any less. She's a cool princess to be around, when she's not using the Royal Canterlot Voice. Anywho, it's been two years and I live in Ponyville, occasionally helping out with the town with odd jobs here and there, protecting it from attacks from supernatural beasties and such, and hang out with my six best friends. The Elements of Harmony.
But I mostly hang out with Fluttershy, I don't hate the others, I love em to death. Fluttershy I just hang out with mostly, she's calm, a bit on the quiet side, but she's sweet, and nice. And come on, have you seen her? She's frigging adorable, even when she's not doing anything my heart feels like it's getting an overdose of sugar.
It should be illegal to be that cute, legit man, seriously.
So here I am, today fixing up her fence. Broken by none other than the rainbow mare from earlier, crashed right into it after trying to perform a Sonic Rainboom, kinda like a sonic boom, only more colorful and awesome.
Kneeling down I picked up a hammer I brought with me and positioned the pole in the hole I dug as Fluttershy watched. "Please don't hurt yourself, Lee." she whispered, good thing I have good hearing, otherwise I may have not have been able to hear her right.
"I've done this before, remember I used to live on a farm remember?" I reassured her. Back before I moved to the Big Apple I lived in the south, always had to work on the farm fixing things. So I had experience rebuilding fence posts and the like, when I overheard Fluttershy's fence was broken I hopped on board to help her. She was hesitant at first, thinking I'd get hurt, but I told her it was no problem at all.
Looking back down at the pole, i managed to wedge it in so it'd stay put. After I made sure it was going to stay, I motioned for Flutters to back up a little bit, she did so reluctantly. Looking at the hammer in my hand, it was a simple old thing. An iron handle with a heavy looking head, and a weird tassel at the end. It served its purpose well for smashing things into the ground, such as poles for example. Taking a stance I lifted up the hammer, and with a grunt of effort I hit the pole, sending it deeper into the ground. The ground shook from the hit and, to no surprise on my part scared Fluttershy. She was always scared of just how strong I was, couldn't help that I'm afraid.
A few more hits on my part and the pole was halfway in, dang, what is this ground made of? I wondered, taking hold of the pole and holding it steady for my next hit. My hammer wasn't all that heavy, of course I was proven wrong when I hit the pole again...
... and smashed my finger.
Now... all manner of things rushed through my head at that particular moment. Fluttershy's shocked and teary face, Angel Bunny's snickering, a weird boob shaped cloud, that tree that had a weird bark imprint of Discord on it. Oh! And the searing burning pain in my finger from where I hit it...
Oh sweet buttery ballsacks... the pain... I should probably yell shouldn't I?
Yep...
"HOLY CRAP ON A STICK!" I screamed, dropping my hammer and falling back onto the ground, clutching my finger. It throbbed in pain, it felt like fire was eating it alive.
It felt like...
I hit it with a danged hammer.
"Oh my goodness! Oh my goodness! Oh my goodness!" Fluttershy flew over to me, her eyes misty as she inspected my hand. I however was taking it like any man should.
I was biting my lip, fighting back unmanly tears, and stopping myself from crying like a baby... of course.
"It. Doesn't. Hurt... that much!" I moaned through clenched teeth, holding onto what felt like my broken thumb. i didn't want to look at it, not at all. I had a horrible image of it looking all flat... I shuddered, looking the pegasus in the eyes. Her blue orbs were looking into my own, and I could tell she didn't believe me. "Okay okay it hurts like balls, what do you expect?"
Fluttershy moved my hand aside and got a good look at my thumb, I for one was getting a good look at the sky. I hated looking at newly acquired wounds, it was always something that made me cringe regardless of whatever injury it was. I was tough and all, but even I had my limits. "Oh dear, this might need a cast." She muttered, checking every inch of my finger by moving it with her hoof. She had such a delicate touch. "How does it feel, Lee?" Fluttershy looking back up at me, her eyes showing nothing but concern.
"Well, let me see..." I tapped my good finger against my chin in fake thought. "It feels like I smashed a hammer against it like the idiot I am." I grinned, wincing shortly after from a sharp pain in my finger.
Making a Tsk tsk tsk noise, Fluttershy let go of my hand and turned around before trotting over to her cottage with me in tow. "Alright, come with me mister and let's get your hand all fixed up!" She said, a warm smile on her face that radiated kindness.
Yep, best friend.
Being led to Fluttershy's cottage, I decided to think back to when I became good friends with this pony. Back when I first came here, Flutters was, understandably afraid of me. I mean, wouldn't you if you met a six foot tall Asian/American with jet black hair and wild blue eyes? I was a decent build I mean, but I wasn't exactly strong enough to battle a pony...not that I've tried I mean... I wouldn't last against a pony like Big Mac, not at all.
Okay enough about fighting ponies, I'm injured dang it!
After going inside her cottage the pegasus flew into the kitchen leaving me in her living room. Her home was pretty big, and had the cutest decorations in it. Bird feeders and plants, and it smelled like the vets office back home. And of course that brought back memories of when I had to take my pet Bubbles to the vet... good times.
"So Fluttershy." I started, sitting down on her couch as Angel bounded over to me and tapped his leg on the floor. I ignored the little bugger and asked. "How long will this take?"
Fluttershy came flapping back into the living room with a medical kit held to her chest, she tilted her head and thought for a moment. "Not too long, it'll only take a few minutes." She informed me before sitting down next to me and gesturing for me to hold out my hand. I complied as she set the box aside and gingerly took my hand in hers and looking at my thumb which had begun to swell, and I'm pretty sure it was turning purple.
"Holy jeebus." I cringed, just looking at it hurt... oh wait, maybe that's because it's a part of me, and is probably broken. You moron.
And so I sat there, patiently waiting for Fluttershy to finish wrapping my thumb up. I could see in her eyes how careful she was trying to be, she was so motherly, it hurt. I didn't hate that about her either, she truly cared for her friends and family, as well as anyone really. Didn't matter who or what you were, she'd do her best to help you out.
Actually, now that I thought about it... even though Flutters was scared of me when she first met me, she helped me out. Fighting her fears of the strange six foot tall monster, and helped him out. I sure do owe her for helping me.
Now maybe you're wondering, just what was it that she was helping with. Well... a while back, maybe a year or so the Cutie Mark Crusaders, or the CMC as I have taken to calling them, (as well as everyone else, as saying the full name is a mouthful) had ran into the Everfree Forest during an attack by some kind of weird black shadowy thing called a Voidling as me an the mane six had tried to fight it off to no avail. After the fight, and I saw Rarity and AJ looking around for the three fillies, I heard Bon Bon say they had run into the Everfree.
That was all it took for me to run in there blind as a bat. Ever since I came here, I had grown accustomed to the ponies, mostly the mane six, and a little filly named Scootaloo. She was a little orange pegasus filly, who to my surprise lost her parents a long time ago. My heart went out to the kid, because I knew what she felt. I lost my parents to. I thought of her like a little sister, and always hung out with her if I had the chance. So when I knew they were in the forest, I ran in there to save em.
Of course, I knew what was in there but I didn't care. Luckily I found them before the voiding could do much, but as soon as I found them the damn thing came out of nowhere and attacked. Opting to attack me instead of the three fillies, I told them to run, which they did albeit reluctantly. And that left me with fighting off some interdimensional being that has the powers to suck out my soul and crush it in its hands...
I totally had this in the bag.
So I tried to fight it off, using my amazing powers of human awesome to fight em off with...
... why are you looking at me like that?
... Okay fine I screamed like a little turd and threw whatever was on the ground at it, mud, rocks, sticks, and a I think a raccoon. I had no idea, but somehow I managed to actually injure it, from what Twilight told me anyway after the fight. But I had gotten seriously hurt, it hurled these weird dark balls of lightning at me, and they stung like nobody's business. Half of my ribs were broken, my arm was shattered and my lung collapsed. I was dying actually, and when they brought me in... I heard everything they said.
"He's not going to make it, I'm sorry."
"He's going to make it!"
"We have to let him go, he's too badly damaged, and we know next to nothing about his anatomy! It'll be merciful to let him go now."
"Let me do it! I'm not letting him die!"
"Fluttershy, I can-"
"GET THE BUCK OUT OF MY WAY!"
Everything after that was hazy... all I know was, I was hurting something bad when I woke up in the hospital, which I originally thought was hell...
What, with my track record back on earth, I didn't expect anything less. But I was surprised to find out I was in the hospital, and that I was in a coma for a month from a surgery that Fluttershy of all ponies performed... saving my life, despite not knowing a thing about humans. I owed her my life, and then some for saving me.
She's done so much for me... I should return the favor. Watching as Fluttershy gently bandaged my thumb and placed a small plaster around it, I thought. But what do I do? This would take some serious thinking, planning, and scheming...
-ooo000=+=000ooo-
"Heeeeey Twilight!" I yelled, hanging from a small rope that was tied to her castle's balcony. I had borrowed the rope from Pinkie, who had some stashed away in case of castle scaling emergencies, and using my supreme human skills, I began climbing the castle. Why not use the door? Because it was locked and I'm kinda in a hurry.
I could see Twilight poke her head out and look around, "Lee?! Where are you?" she called out.
"Down here!" I yelled up at her, chuckling to myself.
Despite being so far away, I could see her eyes widen in both fear and annoyance. When she propped herself up on the balcony and looked down at me, I could smell the shock from down here. "Lee?! What in the world are you doing!?" She practically screamed, jumping off and gliding down to me.
Now, Twilight's castle is pretty big, and tall. And with me climbing it, I was a good fifty feet off the ground, with another forty left to go before I got to the balcony. So yeah, if I fell, I'd probably die... I wasn't exactly known for making smart decisions.
"I need your help with something, and needed to do something stupid to get your attention." I explained, feeling my grip on the rope loosen. I was about to say something but Twilight cut me off, scowling slightly and using her magic to pull me up onto the balcony. I couldn't help but laugh.
"Keep laughing and I'll drop you."
I shut up... never anger an Alicorn, especially when it's a lovable Alicorn nerd who's more powerful then all of the Princesses of Equestria combined.
Being set down onto the balcony, I followed Twilight into her castle study where I got a good look around. Tons of books sat on the shelves, hundreds of them I bet she reorganizes daily... don't ask how, she's a monster when she was to fix up her books. She reminds me of Smeagol from Lord of the Rings, cept instead of a ring its books. I saw her actually pulling a Smeagol once with a book... it was both scary and funny at the same time.
A couple of purple couches sat nearby, and to my left I saw a large desk with several quills, papers and other items sitting on it. Looking closely I saw a letter being written to Celestia, guess she was writing her about some friendship report. I found the idea strange at first, but eventually I go used to it. I mean, I'm in a world where there's a Pink Pony who plans Particularly Awesome Parties and defies all laws of nature, physics and life itself by just existing.
I saw Twilight sit down on one of the couches and took a seat on the opposite side. "Okay, what did you want that invovled almost kiling yourself?!" She scolded me. "You could have come in through the front door ya know."
I crossed my arms, pouting. "Your guards are mean to me, obviously."
"Well if you didn't put itching powder in their beds and shrank their armor... somehow then maybe they wouldn't be angry at you." Twilight nodded with closed eyes, crossing her forelegs over her chest in a know it all manner.
"Hey! They started it when they tried to shove a spear up my butt when I was chased that one time." I defended, narrowing my eyes. It was true, the day I was released, I was chased around by several newbie guards who hadn't gotten the word I was released until it was too late. By then I was trying to escape from them, narrowly missing getting a spear up my butt. So, naturally I wanted payback, and I got it.
Of course, it just so happened that those particular guards became Twilight's personal ones... and the war continued between us.
Twilight sighed. "I give up." She looked me in the eyes, her violet eyes staring into my own blue ones. "Just what is it you needed help with?"
Oh right! I came here for help, herp derp. "Okay so... I figured, what with Fluttershy helping me out over the past two years, and being a good friend to me, I'd do something nice for her, ya know?" I told her, hopefully she doesn't think I'-
"Awww, I think that's very sweet of you." She told me, smiling sweetly before a thoughtful frown crossed her features. "But what do you need me for?"
I grinned. "I was wondering if you knew of anything I could do for Flutters," I shrugged, swinging one of my legs over the other and leaning back. "And as you know, I'm clueless as stuff like this." I sighed, sometimes being clueless was fun.
Putting a hoof to her chin in thought, Twilight looked up to the ceiling. As she thought I opted to look at one of the books sitting in front of me, instantly I wished I didn't as my eyes scanned the title.
A Mare's Guide to Stallions: How to Wow Him in Bed.
I swear I never had to stifle a laugh so hard in my life, I felt like I was about to explode. I had to bite my lip and I tasted blood. Oh god why? HAHAHAHA!
Twilight seemed to notice my red face and stifled laughter, tilting her head she looked at me. "What's so funny?" I answered her question by flicking my eyes down to the table in front of me and on the book. When her eyes caught sight of the book. her eyes widened and she magicked the book away with a blush on her face, clearing her throat she said. "Uh, Pinkie Pie wanted that... yeah... uh, anyway you wantedmyhelpwithFluttershy?" She quickly said, throwing the book out the window.
"...Normally when you throw something out the window, you do it when someone isn't looking... and I was looking the entire time." Shaking my head at her sheepsih expression, I uncrossed my legs and said. "And yes I do need help... got any pointers?" I hoped she did, legit I needed a little bit of help.
"Well, no I don't know anything actually, hehe." She rubbed a hoof behind her head, blushing again. "I mean, Fluttershy would like anything to be honest, there's nothing to it really."
I don't want to do just anything, With a sigh I stood up, straighting out my pants an heading to the door. "Well. thanks anyway Twilight. I'll go see if i can't scam one of the others, hehehe." I cackled as I exited out the front door. Immediatly, I came across the guards... they eyed me, spear in hoof.
"Well well well, if it ain't the human~"
"My enemies..." I narrowed my eyes, scowling. "We meet once more..."
Unmanly screams sounded... and they were all mine.

Third Person
As Twilight watched Lee leave her study, she squee'd silently. Flapping her wings in excitement as she flew over to her balcony, expecting to see Lee exiting her castle from up above. She did see him, but he was sprinting away as two guards tossed several things his way. When will those three stop this nonsense? She groaned, shaking her head in amusement.
As she watched Lee run down the street, she smiled.
I know whatever he does, Fluttershy will be happy...
-ooo000=+=000ooo-
Lee's Perspective
Hmm... what was the pink blur that shot by me? Obviously it must have been Pinkie, she's the only pony I know of who can move at light speed. She's even got Dashie beat for speed on the ground, sky, water... regardless, that mare is fast as balls.
Seeing how Twilight couldn't help me think of anything, I decided to ask Rarity. She was good at thinking of stuff, maybe she could help me out. She knew a lot of fancy shmancy stuff. Thankfully the trip to her boutique was short, and didn't take long. I arrived there after being chased by two of Twilight's guards, I think their names were Tor and Loi, brothers or something from some really old city from the east called Nasguard or something.
As I made my way to the front door, I saw that pink blur shoot by me again with a crack of sound and a burst of wind. Pinkie? What on earth are you doing that requires you to break the sound barrier? I didn't have any clue what she was up to, but I'll find the time to ask her later. Walking up to the front door I knocked on it three times, then four times, then five times... then burped loudly, followed by an armpit fart.
"The vulgarity, I swear." I heard Rarity murmur from behind the door before opening it. "Why hello darling!" She greeted me with a million dollar smile, though behind it I could see the disgust in her eyes from my actions.
So I burped again. "Morning babe, how's it goin?" I asked, scratching my armpits. I loved doing this, just so I could see her squarm.
She rolled her eyes, thought I could see some recoiling there. "And whatever does a gentlestallion such as yourself need?" She asked me sarcastically, raising an eyebrow.
"I asked Twilight, and she didn't have nothing so I'm coming to you about this." With another sigh I said. "Fluttershy, she's been really nice to me lately and putting up with my crap, and I wanted to do something nice for her." Looking around I added. "So i figured I'd ask one of the girls about it, Twi didn't know anything, so here I am in your beautiful presence~" I said as I quickly leaned down and, to her surprise and possibly mild disgust, licked the side of her face.
Somewhere, I felt slitted eyes spelling bloody murder towards me.
What a weird feeling. I mused.
Rarity squeaked and fell back, quickly producing a hanky and wiping the side of her face. "How rude! You should not lick a lady's face unless you have bought her dinner first." She scolded me, wiping her cheek like it was covered in filth.
In her defense, my mouth is probably full of germs and stuff.
"Anyway, can you help me out? I'd rather not play this like it's one of those games where I have to go all over town to find something nice to do only to come up empty every time, that's ridiculous." I laughed. I remember playing games like that, where I had to go all over town to find something, only to be told it was somewhere else... this resulted in me attempting to kill the mission giver, only to fail. So I quit the game and went to Chuck E Cheese, got me some snackies, but sadly seeing how I had no kid I was kicked out.
Took my food though, hehehehehe.
Rarity seemed to sfrown thoughtfully and forgot all about my spit assault on her face as I said that. "Oh darling, are you really? O-of course I can help you out, come in come in." She ushered me in, dragging me by the hem of my shirt with her magic before closing the door. "Do tell me darling, whatever do you need?" She asked once we were seated in her planning room. A room that, not many would enter, as it was a disaster zone of clothing, fabric, and other things thrown all willy nilly.
"I need something to do, I'm planning on taking Flutters out to repay her for all she's done for me, and I need something awesome. I was hoping you had something I could do, any ideas?" I asked her, I hoped she did, otherwise I had to settle for like... a crap dinner or something.
Thankfully Rarity nodded, a slight smile on her face. "I do believe I may have something for you Lee." she told me, getting up and trotting over to her desk. the one covered in crap tons of cloth and sewing materials. I saw her open one of the drawers and reach inside, pulling out a mall black box covered in a bluish hue. "I recall Fluttershy's desire to witness this particular event, and I planned on taking her... however," a sad frown crossed her features as she opened the box. "Something has come up that requires my attention in Canterlot, so..." She looked up at me, her sapphire blue eyes boring into mine. "I want you to take her instead." Rarity told me, her horn lighting up as two golden laced tickets floated out of the box.
I took a moment to look at the tickets, my eyes scanned the writing and my mouth fell open in shock. "These are tickets to the Rainbow Fly migration." I breathed, "How did yo-"
"I have friends in high places Lee, I thought you knew that by now." Rarity giggled at my kerflustered expression.
Now, maybe you're wondering, what's so great about Rainbow Flies? Well. They're not flies, like the kind that you wish would burn up when you set eyes on them, I'm talking like Butterflies, and they're rainbow. These are a peculier breed of Butterfly, they leave trails of rainbows wherever they fly, and they glow and stuff. Its pretty amazing. Now, I've only seen pictures, crappy crsappy pictures of the, but I knew they were cool. But I could never get any tickets, nor could Fluttershy.
This is perfect! Looking up at Rarity, I smiled. "Thanks Rarity, these are perfect!" I told her, quickly grabbing her into a hug, who hesitantly returned it.
"It is no problem at all dear." She said, pulling away and looking me in the eyes. I saw something in them... sadness? Why would she be sad? "Anyway, you should go and get ready, the migrations starts at sundown."
"Oh dang, thanks again Rares, I'll be sure to make it up to you somehow." I assured her and ran out before she could say anything in return.
If only I had looked back, I would have seen Rarity's heartbroken expression.
-ooo000=+=000ooo-
With Fluttershy, third person
Fluttershy was reading a book on animal care when a knock sounded at her door, looking up from her book she closed it and placed it to her side before trotting over to to the door. "Uh, who is it?" She asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
*Chitter chitter chitter*
"Oh, its Mr. Gopher!" She smiled, opening the door and looking down at her small friend. "How are you doing today?"
The gopher looked up at her with a smile, running up to her leg and rubbing his head against it. "Chitter chit."
"Oh my, is that so?" She asked, leaning down and nuzzling the little creature on the head. ""Well, congratulations Mr. Gopher, I hope your newborn will be healthy, if he's ever feeling sick just bring him to me, okay?" She offered, getting a swift nod in reply. She giggled. "Okay then." She said, walking back inside as a parrot named Bill flew onto her back. "Oh, hello Bill." She greeted again, smiling.
The bird on her back chirped her way, and began telling her stuff... in bird tongue... because... bird tongue.
Fluttershy's eyes widened. "Lee is doing what?!" She practically yelled, scaring the bird and severa animals. The bird had just told her Lee of all ponies was going to be taking her out. How did Bill know that? And why would Lee be taking her out?! "How do you know that?"
The bird told her, in detail.
-ooo000=+=000ooo-
A Few Minutes Ago, with Bawb... I mean Bill.
The parrot had flown over to Rarity's house late in the day, why? To spy on her of course, for he had a odd feeling he had to be here for something... and that something involved his nemesis... Ted. A black parrot with a white beak, Bill himself was red, with a black beak. He was staring down the parrot, his beady black eyes staring into the other's.
Face me in battle you coward. He wished, suddenly he heard the human he knew as Lee talking to Rarity.
"I need something to do, I'm planning on taking Flutters out to repay her for all she's done for me, and I need something awesome. I was hoping you had something I could do, any ideas?" the human questionend the mare, making Bill tilt his head in thought.
Interesting... FLY YOU FOOL! He flapped his wings once, twice then took off, leaving the foul beast that was his brother behind.
"~Prick!~" Ted called out to him, flying away.
"~Ass!~"
-ooo000=+=000ooo-
With da poni
For obvious reasons, Bill left out why he was at Rarity, only that he was there at the time Lee arrived.
"Oh... oh my." Fluttershy flushed red, she had never been on a date before. "Why, why, why." She asked quietly, looking up at the ceiling. He's really going to take me out? why would he want to? I mean, I haven't done anything special. Fluttershy shook her head, dispelling the thoughts. She couldn't lie to herself she did like Lee. He was kind, and sweet to her and her animals, and to her friends and everypony he met. He... maybe be vulgar sometimes but he's very sweet... She found herself thinking of Lee and all the times they've shared. The picnics with the girls, saving Equestria a few times, and the thing with Blueblood's private pantry.
I do want to get to know him better... maybe even love him.
A smile made its way onto her face... then a frown... then a slightly shocked expression.
Did... did i really just think that? Fluttershy never thought she would think that about her friend. Do I... really like him that way? She didn't have time to think as a knock sounded at her door.
"Hey Flutterbutt, aight?" Lee's slightly southern voice called out.
Only... one way to find out. Taking a deep breath and exhaling, she smiled and turned around to greet her human friend. She saw Lee standing in her doorway, leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed. The sun was setting closely behind him, giving him a breathing appearance. Wow... her mouth fell halfway open, but she didn't try to stop it.
"Fluttershy? Herro~" He asked, waving a hand in front of her starstruck expression. She shook her head and smiled.
"Yes Lee?" She asked, looking him in the eyes.
Lee coughed, sniffling then saying. "Um... I got these tickets and stuff, and I was wondering... if you wanted to go with me." He said, pulling out the pair of tickets and showing her them. "I know how much you wanted to go to this, and I managed to find them thanks to a friend."
Fluttershy looked at one of the tickets, She smiled wider. "These are tickets to the Rainbow Fly migration!" She cried, flapping her wings in excitement and squealing silently. Lee chuckled, watching her display of happiness with a grin.
"Sooooo, I take it that's a yes!"
"Its a date!" She smiled so wide she felt like her cheeks were going to split. "When is it?"
Lee looked at one of the tickets, frowning and furrowing his brows in thought. "Sundown, so... in an hour or so." He looked up and smiled. "We gots time to get there, if we hurry that is."
"Oh well we should hurry then!" The pegasus said, dancing on her hooves. She was happy to finally be able to see the migration for once.
With a chuckle, Lee turned about face and said. "Auto-Ponies, let's roll out!"
-ooo000=+=000ooo-
The two had gone down a path leading to said migration, as it was a fair walk away. Lee was jogging at a fast pace with Fluttershy trailing behind him, he carried both tickets in his pockets so they would not get lost. He would have been very angry if he lost them. Fluttershy meanwhile, was too busy inside of her mind to pay attention to much. She was wondering how he truly felt about her human friend, did she love him as a friend, or something more?
I guess... when we get there I'll find out.
The run there was short, thankfully and they came across a pony guarding a gate leading to a large field. He eyed the human and pony approaching and said. "Halt, ticket?"
Lee reached into his pocket, pulling out both. "Boom baby." Lee smirked, no one would deny him multicolored awesomeness.
The pony looked at both tickets, rubbing his chin and scanning them with his magic, when he was done he nodded. "Alright, go on in." He said, opening a small gate for them to walk through, only to see that Lee had hopped over the two foot tall fence and was walking away. "Or just hop over the fence, not like there's gate or anything."
The two ignored him and kept walking as the sun was nearing its set... sunsetting... shut up and read.
Lee found a nice secluded spot to sit and pulled out a small blanket for them both to sit on, once he sat down, Fluttershy sat down next to him. Just a foot away, still in deep thought. Lee had leaned back, unbuttoning his jacket at the top and letting the cool breeze wash over him, with a sigh he looked up into the sky, a smile on his face. What he didn't know though, was that Fluttershy was watching him intensely. Trying to decipher her thoughts.
Where did he get these tickets? She pondered, looking down at her forehooves and rubbing them together. Nopony has ever done anything this nice for her... ever! I wonder... does he like me? Looking back up at Lee, she noticed his carefree expression and smiled. He looks so happy... Fluttershy loved seeing him happy, seeing him this way always made her heart flutter.
Seeing him period made her smile, no matter what.
"Hey Fluttershy." She heard, she hadn't realized she'd been staring. She hoped he didn't notice. "look." He said, the sun setting as he pointed out ahead. She followed his finger and saw something, several hundred something. And once the sun finally set, Fluttershy saw an amazing sight.
Flying high above, the yellow pegasus spotted what she had been wanting to see for years... The Rainbow Flies. Large beautiful rainbow hued wings, medium sized bodies and elegant flight patterns, they were quite the sight to see. Fluttershy sat in awe at them, they were so beautiful in her eyes, they way they glided with the wind, leaving a trail of rainbows behind them that blanketed the skies. "Its... so beautiful." She spoke softly, holding a hoof in front of her mouth. They were so graceful, and so...
Wait... is one of them coming their way?
Oh my goodness!
She saw one of them flying over, and it landed in front of both the human and the pegasus. It was big, almost as big as a pony. Its body was a bit pudgy but well built, its wings were massive and were flared outward, showing off the mesmerizing designs on its wings, intricate swirls and lines all merging together in a perfect combination of color. Its pink eyes looked at Fluttershy, chittering softly before hopping over much like a timid rabbit would.
Fluttershy smiled softly as it came over to her and nudged her with a wing, as if to see her reaction, she giggled softly as the Rainbow Fly suddenly sat down next to her, wrapping a wing around the pony and nuzzling her cheek in a show of friendship. She in turn gently laid her own wing across its back, accepting its friendship.
"We're so lucky, aren't we Lee?" She asked, looking away to look at Lee, who was... in a bit of a jam as it seemed.
Lee, not only had a Rainbow Fly near him, he had several. One was on his head, perched there like a bird with a blue body and purple eyes. Another on his shoulder with a pink body and yellow eyes, and finally on sitting in between his legs looking up at him with an almost excited expression on his face, it had a purple body and bright red eyes. "Oh yeah, so lucky." He chuckled, reaching down to pet the head of the one in his lap, it chittered softly and leaned into his hand. "Does this normally happen?" He asked.
Fluttershy shook her head. "They're incredibly shy, I don't know why they decided to make an exception for us." She answered, truthfully she had no idea. Nopony has been able to see one up close before, and this was a once in a lifetime kind of thing, and she was happy to have been able to share it with a loving friend. I... I do love him... don't I? She said. I love him. She said, feeling a spark of joy in her heart at the thought, this seemed to have had an effect on the Rainbow Fly next to her, as its wings started to glow, gently getting brighter, the same happened with Lee's.
"This is... so awesome." Lee couldn't believe he could see these things up close, they were so cool in his eyes. But to his dismay, the Rainbow Fly in his lap hopped backwards, flapping its majestic wings and taking flight. its friends followed shortly, leaving behind a trail of sparkly rainbow goodness. "Aww..."
"Its alright Lee." Fluttershy flapped over to him, nuzzling his cheek and sitting next to him. "They coudn't stay forever ya know."
"I know, but still... that was so cool, that they just came up to us like that." The human grinned, never before had he ever seen something so epic. Looking down at Fluttershy, he noticed she was looking down at her hooves, almost fascinated by them. "Hey, you alright?"
What do I say to him? I love you Lee? I really like you? She sighed, not noticing Lee snapping his fingers in front of her. Maybe I coul- She also didn't notice when he was right next to her.
"Heeeeeey Flutterbutter?" He asked finally, getting in so close his mouth brushed her ear.
She eeped, turning to face him and fell backwards, and in a comical twist of fate and slight clicheness, brought him down with her. Lee tried to stop himself, but her grip was strong, and it ended up with his face falling near hers, being only inches away from what would have been an awkward moment.
Fluttershy opened her eyes, seeing blue ones staring right back at her sheepishly. Lee was on top of her, on his elbows and her forlegs wrapped around his shoulders. She felt a blush come onto her face as he stared into her eyes, she felt so many thougths and feelings at the moment. Horror, for having pulled him down, embarrassment for being in this particular position, and sadness for the possibility of hurting him. But she also felt drawn to him, they were so close, and she felt the warmth of his chest on hers and that made her heart pound.
"Crap I am seriously sorry ,you were kinda out of it an-" He didn't get to finish as he felt a pair of lips on his own, silencing him. He saw Fluttershy had kissed him, she was kissing him! And... he was not hating it. It wasn't much of a kiss, more like a peck on the lips but it was enough to shut him up and leave him speechless.
Fluttershy smiled shyly. "Its alright..." she whispered, still looking into his eyes. "I don't mind, Lee..."
It took Lee a moment, and the pegasus was afraid she had broken him but he spoke, thankfully. "Did... did you just...?"
She nodded, suddenly feeling very self conscious. "Yes," she replied quietly, but loud enough for him to hear. She was glad no pony else was around to see or hear this. "Lee... I uh... I love you." She told him, feeling his breathing hitch. "I... I hope you don't mind, that I do... its just that you're so... so..." She fumbled, looking away and trying to find the right words to say to him. "Sweet," Flutteshy said, looking back at him. "And kind, and..." Her eyes grew misty, and a small whimper escaped her lips. "Please don't hate m-"
Lee cut her off, the same way she did him. Kissing her lightly, she looked shocked for a second but relaxed into it. Lee suddenly sat up, pulling her with him. Fluttershy forgot how to breathe, but she didn't care. All she knew was that Lee, her Lee was kissing her back, and she knew what that meant. She pushed her lips against his, deepening the kiss.
Lee then pulled away, much to her sadness only to say. "I love you too, Flutters." He told her, smiling softly as he kissed her again. One that told her just how much he did, he ended the kiss and held her close. Nuzzling her mane as she hugged him tightly, no longer sad. "I love you to."
Both pony and human sat in each other's warm embrace, continuing to watch the Rainbow Flies. Unaware of the four that had visited them earlier were flying over their heads, leaving their trademark trail of rainbows as they headed in the opposite direction of the migration. These trails however... were glowing more brightly than any others in the skies.
-ooo000=+=000ooo-
Lee's eyes-a-ma-balls.
How long was it? I think... two weeks since that day me and Fluttershy got together? Yeah... two weeks. I always loved Fluttershy, I guess I just didn't know it until that night we kissed, and damn it... it was glorious. It was only made sweeter by those cool Rainbow Flies we practically made friends with!
Now... Me and Fluttershy have been dating, and its been going well. Her friends were happy to finally see us getting togethe,r apparently they had a running bet going on... the jerks
So now w-
"Lee! Come see this!"
One second.
Walking over to Fluttershy, I noticed she was hopping around like a little filly. "What's going on?"
"Look out in the backyard!" She giggled, she looked so happy it made me smile.
Looking outside, I saw something that made this day, only more awesome.
Those Rainbow Flies that visited us that night... they were outside waiting us... with a bunch of others.
So... that was the day me and Flutters made ten new and extremely unique friends.
What a tale huh?
