Nothing Better

This was unexpected to say the least. You had awoken a few moments ago only to find a cyan wing draped over your torso. The pegasus it belonged to had his head resting on your neck and legs wrapped tightly around you. It was pleasant to be completely honest. His feathers were incredibly soft and really warm. This along with the sense of security the situation gave was comforting, like holding onto your favorite stuffed animal as a kid.

Nice as it was you still found some humor in the situation, seeing as Rainbow was the big spoon. That was alright though this kind of stuff was nice no matter which end you were on.

All of this did raise the question of how the hell he ended up cuddling you. Blitz never did this any other time the two of you went out drinking. What made him have a sudden change of heart? That was the million bit question.

Maybe he would wanna talk about it over some breakfast. Rainbow was always more relaxed with food in his system.

Very slowly you try to slip out of bed. As you started to slip out of Rainbow Blitzes grip he suddenly doubled his efforts and was holding you like a vice.

“Please don't leave Anon... I'm sorry I know this is weird but please don't leave.” Blitz sounded like he just got kicked out of the Wonderbolts. It wasn't just sadness in his voice, he hurt, more than you thought possible for the pony. Immediately you stop moving, hoping that will calm Rainbow down a bit.

“Don't worry, I was just gonna make us some breakfast. But if you want me to stay in bed longer I won't object.”

Blitz calmed down enough to loosen his hold on you. Seizing the opportunity you roll over and scoop the pegasus into a hug. He instantly reciprocates the gesture, burying his head in your neck as well.

“I know you wouldn't leave Anon, sorry. I'm just scared you know?”

“Actually Rainbow I don't know, you never told me anything like this. I'm not mad I just wanna help my Rainbro is all. But I can't do anything unless you tell me whats buggin you.”

Blitz was silent for a moment. Then he let go of you and sat up, looking for a place to start. Waiting patiently didn't offer much of anything. Rainbow still sat there looking more and more upset. It was obvious that this was gonna be hard for him. Thinking on it you decide on the best course of action. Sitting up against the headboard of the bed you pat your lap and Rainbow clues in. He sits between your legs and you wrap your arms around him. Letting out the breath that he had been holding it was time to start.

“Alright well, I guess it started before you got here. I got tickets to a Wonderbolts show in Cloudsdale, with a backstage pass too. I was pumped, the shows there were always the best. Their hometown got the best of the best. So Flamethrower and Sora would be center stage.”

“At the time I had a thing for Flamethrower. He was, still is, the leader of the Wonderbolts. Top of the line flier with a ton of skill and experience. I kinda got hooked on him when I was looking at some photos... for stunt references. Oh don't give me that look, you ass! You wanna hear the rest or not?”

Looking down at Rainbow with a shit eating grin it was hard to seem sincere. “Of course I do, so you saw some 'reference material' and got hooked.”

“Yeah.”

“So was it the wet mane edition?”

“I freakin hate you sometimes Anon.”

Damn. Can't let the train go off the tracks now. Planting a small kiss on his head you speak softly. “I'm sorry Blitzy I'll shut up. Please keep going.”

“Uhm, right, yeah so I was looking forward to meeting him and actually getting to talk. When I got there the show went off without a hitch. The whole team was awesome and in the finale Flamethrower and Sora did this supersonic double helix maneuver. It was so freakin sweet.”

“Anyway after that I went backstage and the team was there congratulating one another. Flamethrower was by himself on a couch in the corner so I went over there and told him how awesome the show was. He seemed nice enough, said thanks and all that. Then he gave me this, look, and invited me back to his room at their hotel.”

“I didn't even think about it, I was just so pumped that he thought I was cool enough to hang out with. When we got there he suddenly grabbed me and stared right into my eyes. Said 'I saw how you were looking at me backstage. You want all of this, don't you.' I couldn't even get a fucking sentence out. When he brought me over to the bed and threw me down I didn't know what to do. It was the first time in a situation like that with a stallion.”

“It wasn't great, kinda hurt to be honest, and he definitely wasn't gentle at all. But he got off and that made me happy. Knowing that Flamethrower enjoyed his time with me. The next morning though, I woke up and he was gone. No note, no message, nothing. It hurt, he was my hero, my fucking idol and he used me! Like some cheap whore, like a toy he got sick of after using it for the first time. I let him have me... all of me. It meant nothing to him, I meant nothing to him. Made me want to cry and I did. I sat in that room for Gods know how long bawling like a foal.”

“By the time I got my shit together I flew home as fast as possible. When I got there everything related to him was ripped, torn, burned, or some combination of the three.”

Suddenly a loud crack of thunder grabbed your collective attention. The sudden downpour outside was looking fierce. Glad to be inside you look back down to Rainbow. He was starting into the rain, seeming lost in thought.

No, not gonna let him go any farther down. Making up your mind you stand and sling Rainbow over your shoulder.

“Hey what are you doing? Put me down Anon!”

“Nope, I'm not just gonna sit there while you sulk Blitz. We're gonna go have some breakfast and I'll show you why you don't need to worry about that twat.”

“I'm not worried I'm just...”

“Concerned this, whatever it is, we got going on will turn out the same.”

“Maybe a little.”

“Well no need to fear because Anonymous is here.” Putting Rainbow down on the kitchen Floor you kneel and look him strait in the eyes.

“Rainbow Blitz, I want you to listen to me closely okay? I will not now or ever do something like that. You are my best friend and the most important pony in the world to me. Just hearing that story made me want to find this guy and beat the unholy shit out of him. I can't guarantee what will happen if we continue this except for one thing: I will stand by you and protect you no matter what stands in my way. Be it hell hounds from Tartarus or the Princes themselves.”

Having said what needed to be said you stood up trying to gauge Rainbows reaction. For a few moments he simply stood there, dumbstruck. Then tears started to well in those magenta eyes, a smile slipping onto his features. Slowly closing the gap between you, Blitz stood and wrapped his fore hooves around your torso.

“Thanks Anon, I know you mean every word.” Letting go Rainbow looked down and started to make a circle with his hoof. He looked so freakin adorable, it wasn't often the awesome Rainbow Blitz got shy.

“So Anon... you said something about breakfast right?”

Laughing lightly you walk by and pat the pony on the head. The gesture earning a glare.

“Yeah I did dork. So what'll it be? I went shopping so I have pretty much anything.”

The pegasus walks to a chair at the table and takes a seat. “Well I don't know. Oh! Did you get that confetti pancake stuff?” He sat up eagerly waiting for a response. You swear these ponies and their sugary treats. It was a shock that diabetes wasn't a thing here, weird.

“Yeah I got some want anything else with 'em?”

“Nope, that should do it.”

“Alrighty, one stack of confetti pancakes coming up.”

“You wanna know what makes you so awesome Anon? It's not the stunts or anything like that, it's all the food you make me. Anytime I ask you always feed me.”

“Gotta keep my Rainbro fat and happy don't I?" Seeing Blitzes expression change so suddenly called for an amendment. "It's an expression dude calm down. Besides I'm no master chef I just like to eat.”

“Still I appreciate it.”

“Good to know.”

As the pancakes sizzled on the flat top grill Blitz seemed to mull over a question in his head. After the first batch was done and Rainbow started to dig in he decided to ask what was floating around his head.

“So Anon when did you find out that you were into guys?”

“Ha, sorry dude if you were hoping to be the first one I'll have to pop that bubble right here.”

“No you freakin dork. I don't care about that, I was just wondering since you always seemed cool with this. I mean we've been friends for awhile and then there was the uhm, kiss. You know last night.”

“So you want to know why I would kiss you out of the blue and how I came to be comfortable with this kind of stuff?”

“Pretty much, I mean it might help to get to know how you came to terms with all this.”

Finishing the last pancake you pile your plate high and sit down by Blitz. Where to start? It would probably be best to tell him how you found out you were into guys first.

“Well I was still in high school when I found out. Around then and right up until I came here I was chasing tail nonstop. During school I was chasing girls mainly because I just liked sex you know? The human world is a lot different that Equestria, not a fun or happy place. Then whenever you do manage to find something that gives you some sense of joy it's hard not to cling to it. That's what sex was for me, an escape to a better place. With no hardship and no worries.”

“Then this one time I was chilling with a friend and we got fucking trashed. We were sleeping in a tent on his families land... stuff just happened. Next morning when we came to seemed like we were both fine with it. After that we started dating, nothing too serious. It didn't take long for me to fall hard for the guy. We were insufferable for a couple of months. Shit went downhill after that, I'll spare you the details since I really don't want to get into it. Suffice it to say we split up.”

“Even with all the things that happened between us, I went after guys exclusively. Reason being that I never got a connection with any chick that I did with him. Eventually I stopped trying to look for 'the one' and settled for finding people that just knew how to enjoy themselves. I figured that when that 'one' came by I would know.”

“As for why I kissed you goodnight Rainbow, even though we were just friends at that point. I've had the thought for awhile that you and only you are the one for me. Didn't really know how you would react if I told you so I just kept it to myself until I thought you were ready. Although when I just saw you laying in my bed, so peaceful, so beautiful, I couldn't help myself. In my defense I thought you were out cold.”

A coy grin graced your features. “That do the trick or should I go in depth and describe my feelings. I've been hanging out with Elusive a bit so I could add a dramatic flare if you want.”

Rainbow shook his head vehemently at that, poor dude looked like he was giving himself whiplash. “Oh Gods no, this is mushy enough as is.”

While you could agree to that there was no need to let Rainbow in on it. You turn your eyes down to the table putting on a hurt puppy look. “I was just trying to be helpful, didn't mean for it to make this weird.” Wait for it.

Blitz sprung up from his seat and flew over to give you a hug. “No, no, I didn't mean it like that I just meant... why the hell are you laughing?”

Being unable to hold it in any longer you burst into a fit of giggles. “Just messin with ya dude, I really just wanted a hug from my Blitzy.”

And now he was red, damn, why did ponies have to be so freakin cute when they blushed? Shit was powerful enough to bring a tyrant down from his throne. Holding the pegasus close you take a moment to enjoy this. He smelled like fresh rain on a cool day. His fur was soft and his mane was even more so. It was little moments like this that made everything worth it. Being able to hold someone you cared so much for, at the time nothing seemed like it would ever top this.

“Hey, thanks for telling me all of that Anon. You really do know how to make me feel special.”

“The feeling is mutual Rainbow, but now I have a question for you.”

He looked up at you with a little glimmer of curiosity. “What is it?”

“Since we're kind of a thing now did you wanna do some couple stuff?

“Like?”

“Spoon while watching scary movies on the couch.”

To his credit Blitz didn't turn totally red this time although his cheeks did get a little rosy. “That, actually sounds really nice.”

“Awesome but this time I call the big spoon, you got it last night.”

He rubbed the back of his head while trying to avoid your gaze. “What can I say? You're really warm without a shirt.”

“Don't need to tell me. Now come on and remember if you get scared I'll be there to hold you.” Sticking your tongue out got the same response from Rainbow.

“Ha, I'm not some scaredy pony. I can handle the horror.”

“We shall see, my feathered friend, we shall see.”
