Chapter 4: A day indoors

Right after Fury said one word, the day and life for Rose just got better. Now Fury had a good use for that extra room instead of storage. Rose helped when she could to make room and clean it up.

“Well, here is your room.” Fury says after finishing up.

“Thank you Fury.” Rose responded happy.

“No problem. You want a blanket and pillows from my room?” Fury asked.

“Um, sure thank you.” Fury nods as he leaves to get the needs. Rose goes and sits on her new bed to wait and think. ‘Hmm’ thinking about the small stumps on his back, ‘I need to ask what those are.’

After they got the room squared away and cleaned, they just sat on the couch thinking about what to do next.

“Well, we can’t go outside.”Fury starting the conversation.

“Well duh.” Rose replies while rolling her eyes playfully. She than remembers the stumps on his back. What are those things on your back?” She asks pointing a hoof.

Fury looks at what she is pointing at. “Oh, those? those are my wing stumps.” Rose just looks with a look that says ‘What?’ Fury laughs inwardly at this face. “I was never a Pegasus, born an earth pony, always an earth pony. It's just a little creation I made.” Rose is dumbstruck but quickly shakes out of it.

“Why are they not on now?”

“Well, they can’t fold in at rest only can bend so I can fly and I have trouble getting through doors. I usually take them off indoors,” Rose just stares with wonder at the things, she suddenly realizes she is staring.

“Sorry, I Didn’t mean to stare.” she says quickly after turning away with a small blush of embarrassment. Fury looks at her and he just wraps the hoof around her to try and comfort her. The result was her squeaking softly in surprise from the contact and her blush growing in greatness.

“Hey it’s alright to stare, I’m used to it by now.” he says.

Rose turns to look at him their noses almost touching. Her eyes wide, she smiles red faced from her blush. Fury returns the smile in kind.

"Uh...this is awkward." she says still blushing.

"Oh, sorry about that. Just want to see you happy." he says as he

Rose was bored and recovering from her blush happy time, and Fury was just simply reading. Fury looks over in time to see Rose snuggled adorably into a ball in the corner of the couch like a cat.

The sight to him is so great that he can’t help saying, “Adorable”. She hears this and looks up at him with a large blush growing on her face and pouts cutely.

“Hey!” the face she makes after just makes him laugh like it’s the funniest thing ever. Her face reaches the top level of red and says, “I am not adorable!”

Fury stops and looks back at her with a smirk, “Ya sure bout that Rosey?” and keeps laughing.
Rose gets fed more fuel to her blush and reaches its max by the nickname and pouts. Rose can't help but look at her face a reflection on the window. It was in fact, rose colored.

After calming down, they played some chess, which Rose beat Fury many times at. The beating of Fury in chess, had him owing her many bits. Later they moved some more things out of her new room and cleaned the apartment more. Rose then after became drowsy and sleepy as a drunk at days end, she lays into Fury’s shoulder as he reads on the couch. He stiffens at the contact unsure of what to think of this. Due to any movement he makes she nuzzles him like she doesn't want him to leave. Sighing quietly, she drifts off into sleep at his breathing and heart. Fury figures out shortly after that he can’t move anywhere but the couch without waking her up, so he just sits there with Rose. He then tries to lay down a time later and Rose just follows him down as well. Him laying on his back with Rose in between the couch back and him, Rose holding on to him and asleep on his chest, breathing softly. Figuring he can't do nothing else, he makes his way to sleep.
