Pony Friends With Benefits

Applejack had been working on the farm all day as well as helping her siblings out. She finally finished with time to spare. With nothing else to do she tried to see about hanging with the girls, but the only one available at the time was Fluttershy.

Normally a day with her yellow mare friend was calm and relaxing, but not today. Everywhere they went stallions were trying to hit on them. They had just barely gotten away from some more suitors when they found themselves back in the orchards of Sweet Apple Acres. The two caught their breath and just laughed at how ridiculous things had been.

"Well Ah ne'er thought hang'n out with you could be this crazy!" AppleJack chuckled leaning against a tree. Ah mean this ain't a normal 'currence for yah is it?" She looked to Fluttershy who was still catching her breath.

"Not normally." She composed herself after a few moments. "It is that time of year though." After receiving a quizzical look from her friend she reminded her of the upcoming holiday. "This happened last year too. I think we were with Rarity that time? You know, when we hid in Pinkie's party cave? You and Rarity accidentally ki-"

Blushing AppleJack stopped her. "Ah think Ah remember now Fluttershy! No need to remind me of THAT!" She huffed, feeling rather upset now. She remembered the three of them falling clumsily down a slide. Fluttershy had flew out of the way leaving Rarity to fall on top of her. It was then that they had first kissed.

Fluttershy stared at AJ who was deep in thought. "Is everything alright? You seem upset about something?" Thinking she had said something wrong she gasped and apologized profusely to her.

Shaking her head AJ calmed her down. "It's not your fault Sugar Cube. Ah was just think'n 'bout what happened back then." She paused and looked to her friend. "Can Ah tell you something if you promise not to tell anyone else?"

Nodding and moving closer Fluttershy prepared to listen. "I promise whatever you have to say will stay between us." She waited patiently beside her as AJ prepared herself to speak up.

"It wasn't an accident... that kiss." AppleJack bit her bottom lip. "Rarity hadn't collapsed on me like that. Ah leaned up and kissed her." When Fluttershy didn't say anything she continued. "Ah had a small crush on her and we had spent so much time together recently that Ah thought maybe she liked me too? So when she fell on me and Ah saw her lips so close..." Her eyes began to water a little.

"Did you tell her why you kissed her?" Aj only nodded. "Was she mad?" AppleJack shook her head 'no' and continued to stare at her own hooves. "What happened after you told her?"

Taking a moment to herself she cleared her throat. "We talked about it and she said she needed a drink so we went out to a bar. She had a few too many drinks. Ah was so happy we were able to be friends still that Ah didn't think anything of it when she asked me to sleep over after bring'n her home. Rarity waited for me in bed and kissed me. Ah was so confused, but went with it. We... we ended up do'n more than just kiss'n. When we woke up she apologised and asked me to forget about that night." Tears streamed down her cheeks. "Its been a year and Ah still think about her Fluttershy!"

Her heart ached for her friend. She understood what rejection felt like after Discord had turned her down a few months back. She inched closer to her friend wanting to comfort her. "Its going to be okay AppleJack... I will help you forget about her..." Before Applejack could say another word Fluttershy kissed her. The kiss was soft and deep.

AppleJack's head was spinning in confusion. Fluttershy was kissing her! Even more shocking than that was that she herself had instinctively kissed back, deepening the kiss. She felt the soft tip of her tongue graze her lips and without much thought opened her mouth. What am Ah do'n!? Is this really happen'n? Ahm kiss'n Futtershy... Fluttershy! But doesn't she love...

As she continued to kiss AJ she brought a hoof forward between the orange mare's legs and began to rub between her thighs. Things were heating up and getting more passionate until AJ pushed her hoof away. "Is something wrong?" She worried she had overstepped the line of everything being okay.

"What about M'Ah brother? I know you two were close after Discord rejected you." She began looking sad again and feeling guilty about kissing the mare her brother may be courting.

A sigh left Fluttershy's lips and she smiled at her. "That's because he was a mediator between Discord and I. He made it so we could go back to being just friends. After that I hung out with him so I could see you more often. " Fluttershy was now very noticeably blushing and returning back to her shy self. " I have liked you for a while, but I didn't think you were gay so I tearned to Discord. Should I not have done that?"

Apple's cheeks were burning with embarrassment and excitement. "Ah don't know what to say to that." She laughed a little, but was relieved and happy to hear her friend's confession. "But Ah want to be with you Fluttershy, if ya think ya might want me?"

Instead of saying anything Fluttershy kissed her again. This time AJ didn't resist, instead she pulled Fluttershy closer to herself, unable to hold back any longer. They spent the whole evening in the orchard under the tree just making love and finally leaving their past romances behind them.
