A breeze blew through the bustling streets of Ponyville. It carried the scent of freshly bloomed flowers and the promise of warm days to come. It was the first whispers of spring, and all of Ponyville was reacting to it. Winter had been wrapped up a week ago, and now it was officially time to shake off the last vestiges of the frigid season and move on to the season of giving life.
Most would be happy about that.
Applejack was not.
The orange farm pony trotted through town in an awful mood. Her eyes were narrowed in annoyance, her eyebrows above them knitted tightly together in a stern expression. All of Ponyville gave her a wide berth, knowing full well that while a mad Applejack was rare, and it was very dangerous.
Applejack would not bother the good ponies, though. Her anger was not aimless. In fact, it was rather well channeled and directed. Whether or not who it was directed at was healthy or not was another question, mainly because it was all focused on Applejack herself.
She had let it get this far, she had been the one to let this problem interfere with her work and now she was furious at herself about it! Applejack had been too damn stubborn to seek real help, and now she was regretting it.
“Ah always hate bein’ in season…” Applejack grumbled almost inaudibly to herself. All being in heat did was put a hold on AJ’s routine and stop her from getting any work done. That was the most grievous sin, not being able to do work like she was supposed to.
AJ had tried everything to relieve herself of the burning in her stomach that prevented her from working; first she ignored it, then she used her own hoof, finally she caved and used some more conventional aides that Rarity had recommended. After all of those failing, now she had to take Granny’s advice and just bite the bullet.
She had to find a stallion.
That was a bitter pill to swallow. AJ had never needed a stallion to sate her urges, she had been able to deal with her cycle the way she liked and get on with her life. This was the first time in her life that she had to go through with this the way nature had intended, and it was already an agonizing affair.
First she had tried to go to Rarity for advice and any possible suggestions for discreet partners. Well, it turned out that the fashionista had taken an emergency trip to her shop in Canterlot to deal with. So with that plan a bust, Applejack had to default to her second choice for matters of such a personal matter.
“Rainbow Dash!” Applejack shouted into the sky, annoyed of walking around with her eyes glued to the sky.
Sure, Rainbow may not be the most discrete pony, but AJ trusted her with her life. Plus, a few drunken nights had lead to Applejack hearing stories about Rainbow’s intimate encounters. So at least AJ knew that Rainbow had experience with stallions. Hopefully she would be willing and able to point the farmer in the direction of a willing and nice stallion.
There was a pause between AJ shouting and a polychromatic blur passing by. Maybe the earth pony wouldn’t have seen where she went, but a pair of frightened magenta eyes poked out over a cloud overhead. All Applejack had to do was make eye contact, and the pony’s eyes disappeared over the cloud.
“Y’all better come down here right now, or so help me ah’m comin’ up there.” Applejack leveled her tone to a normal speaking volume. “Trust me, y’all don’t want none’a that.” Again, there was a moment of hesitation. A thick tension hung between the ground and the clouds, making the air heavy and dangerous.
“O-Okay…” Rainbow Dash came over the cloud and slowly flew down. The cerulean pegasus hung just out of Applejack’s reach, probably in case she found a reason to bolt on the meeting. “S-So, what’s up, Applejack? You doin’ alright?” Rainbow let a nervous chuckle escape, one that AJ catalogued away for later. It was the chuckle that meant Rainbow had done something wrong and knew it.
“Y’all come all the way down here. I got somethin’ personal to ask you.” The stalwart earth pony couldn’t remove the edge of frustration from her words, at this stage of her predicament it was near impossible not to be constantly annoyed. The ache in the pit of her being for something inside her was just that infuriating!
“Alright...but I just want you to know that you’re my friend and I whatever I did, I didn’t mean it.” Rainbow reluctantly landed, still keeping her distance from Applejack. There was a few seconds of silence. “So…” Rainbow started, rocking on her hooves. “...whaddya need?”
There was a very simple four letter word that Applejack initially wanted to respond with, but she held back her vulgarity in favor of something more diplomatic and civil. She took in a deep breath and attempted to soften her gaze. She couldn’t tell if it had worked, though.
“Rainbow…” Applejack started as she exhaled. “What do y’all notice about me right now?” She decided to see if Rainbow could interpret the problem on her own and offer a solution so AJ wouldn’t have to say it out loud and embarrass herself.
Applejack knew it wasn’t anything to be ashamed of. Mares went out and looked for a good rut when they were in season, that was just nature. AJ just felt like she had a bit more self-respect and control to just go around offering it to every passing stallion.
“You’re angry.” Rainbow stated, just a little too quick for the farmer’s taste. The cocked eyebrow let Rainbow know she was not on the right path. “Uhhh… You're not angry at me, are you...?” Applejack’s scowl returned. “What do you want from me? I don’t know!” Dash threw her hooves into the air and matched AJ’s glare with her own. “Your hat’s a little crooked, it looks like you’re missing a freckle, your tail is between your legs and…” Dash’s eyes went wide. “Oooohhhh.”
“Yeah.” Applejack confirmed with a nod. “Ah need your help with it.” Rainbow’s blush and stammering made AJ realize that those were not the right set of words. “Not like that, gutter-brain!” She reached out with a hoof and smacked the pegasus upside the head. “Ah mean…” Applejack lowered her voice and leaned in close. “Ah… Celesita, this is awkward… Ah need to know if ya’ know any stallions that could help me out…”
“That’s all you need?” Applejack noded, affirming Rainbow’s question. “All you had to do was ask! No need to be all nervous and stuff about it!” The smile that Rainbow shot was not returned nor appreciated. Applejack just wanted this to be over as quick as possible, and no amount of niceties would help with that.
“Just tell me who ah can go grab, Sugarcube.” Applejack’s affectionate name for her friends did not carry the same amount of jovial friendliness that it usually did, AJ made sure of it. “Ah wanna get this over with so ah can go back to work.” The questioning look that Rainbow gave was dropped with a shrug.
“Well… Time Turner’s out of town, Noteworthy is gay as the day is long, Filthy Rich is talking with Twilight…” Rainbow rattled off name after name, explaining how each one wasn’t available. Applejack impatiently tapped her hoof and brushed her tail against her aching opening, hoping for even a modicum of relief that she knew wouldn’t come. “...I guess it’s Thunderlane’s day off, he might be available.”
“Alright, Thunderlane it is then.” Applejack stated, latching on to the only name that sounded the least busy and most bearable to be around. “Know where he is?” Aj was ready to go hunt him down, drag him to the barn and get this nonsense over with right about now.
“Uhh… I think he’s at home.” Rainbow thought aloud. “But that’s up in the clouds, so I don’t know if you would be able to get him.” Another roadblock. It only served to piss Applejack off more. Rainbow obviously caught on and amended her statement. “I could go get him for you, like, I could just tell him to meet you at the barn and you could explain it to him there?”
“That’s a good idea, Rainbow.” Applejack nodded in approval. “Y’all go get him real fast-like, and I’ll be at the barn.” Applejack shot a glare at her friend. “Make it snappy, please.” Deep down, she could tell that Dash knew that was more a demand than a request.
“R-Right!” Rainbow stammered as she sped off, leaving AJ to head back to the barn and wait for the stallion.
-----
Applejack sat in the barn, impatiently waiting for Thunderlane to arrive. The growing urge to stick her hoof between her legs and try to get herself off was becoming a lot more hard to resist by the minute. Only the promise of something more satisfying coming soon kept her from doing so.
She had made explicitly clear that none of her family, that included the extended family that was her group of friends, were to come anywhere near the barn for the rest of the day. Applejack was unsure of how long this was going to take, but she cleared her schedule in case it took longer than she thought it would.
Her ear twitched, searching for the sound of wings approaching but found nothing. AJ grit her teeth and threw her hat across the room, letting out a low growl. She had told Rainbow Dash to make it fast, and this was NOT fast! How hard was it to fly up to a cloud and say ‘Meet Applejack at her barn right now?’
Apparently, it was too hard for Rainbow to accomplish.
Now Applejack knew she didn’t really mean any of the things she said or did today. It was all just hormone induced reactions, and she would apologize to RD profusely later. But for now she was legitimately pissed at the wannabe Wonderbolt.
“Applejack?” The voice came from outside the barn, it’s muffled tones signalling the arrival of her ‘date’. Applejack had only met Thunderlane a few times before, and she never remembered his voice sounding so deep. She could’ve sworn he was more of a tenor than a baritone. “Are you around?”
“I’m in here.” Applejack called out, adjusting herself so that she looked a tad bit more presentable on the bale of hay she was using as a seat. All of a sudden, nerves were starting to creep in on her annoyance. She questioned why, but then the realization slowly sank in.
This was going to be her first time with a stallion, or any pony for that matter. This was something that she had hoping to save for marriage, or at the very least somepony she trusted more than life itself. She was just going to have it taken by a stallion because she couldn’t focus through it.
That was terrifying.
Maybe she could call it off.
Maybe she could tell Thunderlane to leave.
Maybe she could-
“Hey Applejack, what’s up?” Thunderlane’s voice snapped her out of her slight panic and brought her back to the reality that was her sitting in a barn waiting to be rutted. She blinked at the charcoal pegasus waiting at the door, trying to think of the words to say. “Rainbow Dash said you needed me for a special project?”
“Ah-uh….” Applejack shook her head free of the nervous cobwebs that coated it and focused on the task ahead. She needed to get this done, for the farm. With that in mind, she took a deep breath. “Yeah, ah do.”
“Well I’m always happy to help.” Thunderlane said proudly with a smile. “So, what do you need?” Applejack bit her lip in response. She suppressed the urge to tell him outright, she resisted the urge to tell him that she needed him to mount her and rut like there was no tomorrow. She didn’t want to scare the poor fella off.
“Well, it’s a mighty big favor…” Applejack could feel a traitorous blush on her face and that familiar need build up in her most private of places. “Ah…” She rolled her eyes, annoyed at herself for being so sheepish. “Ah’m in heat.” The stallion’s eyes widened. “Ah need your help with it.”
“R-Really?” Thunderlane perked up immediately. Applejack could’ve sworn even his two-tone mohawk perked up even higher. “Yeah! Alright! I-I can do that.” Applejack should’ve figured that any stallion would jump at the opportunity to get some flank. It was their nature, but that was just what Applejack needed, a little nature.
There was an awkward and uncomfortable silence that took over the barn. Both of the ponies there were waiting for the other to make the first move. Thunderlane out of respect, and Applejack out of naivete.
“Ah’m sorta new to this, so if ya’ have some experience…” Was it embarrassing to admit you were ignorant to a totally normal biologic function? Yes… Yes it was. Applejack knew that now.
“You’ve never done this, really?” Thunderlane cocked his head to the side, a smirk emerging. Applejack frowned in response.
“Now, listen here, just ‘cause ah never went handin’ it out to nopony doesn’t mean y’all can treat me like some kinda fool.” Applejack stood up from her hay bale and advanced on the stallion. “Now, ah don’t mind a little talkin’, but ah ain’t gonna have ya’ thinkin’ poorly of me.” When they were face-to-face, muzzles almost touching, the stallion gulped.
“R-Right...” Thunderlane responded, his wings splayed out wide. “Any other… rules?” Applejack thought about it for a second and decided that yes, there would be more conditions. It would be best to get that out of the way now.
“Yeah.” She started out, still not backing away from Thunderlane’s face. “No kissin’. We ain’t no item, and I ain’t your fillyfriend.” Thunderlane nodded. “No goin’ ‘round braggin’ ‘bout how ya’ bagged an element of harmony neither. Ah ain’t a prize ya’ won, ah asked ya’ to help me.” Again, a nod. “Last, y’all ain’t sewin’ nothin’ here today. We ain’t propogatin’ no family trees and we ain’t breedin’. So no releasin’ inside, got it?”
“Really? Isn’t that the whole point-” Thunderlane didn’t get to finish his sentence because a hoof found it’s way upside his head. “Ow!” His ears flattened and he rubbed his now-sore skull. “Alright, alright. I get it… No cumming inside.” He grumbled sourly. “Can we just get started now?”
“Ah reckon we can.” Applejack nodded.
Initially she was confused when Thunderlane fell back on his haunches. After all, this ordeal was meant to be done from a standing position. Her confusion was cleared when he spread his legs and revealed his flaccid black member.
“You wanna help?” Thunderlane asked, getting a look from AJ. “Listen, I’m not a teenager anymore, just the promise of sex can’t get me hard. I gotta have some motivation and attention.” Applejack knew what he was hinting at and didn’t like the thought of it, but if it had to be done...
Applejack got down to Thunderlane’s level, kneeling so that her mouth was on the right level to service him. Never before had she been this close to a stallion’s member. Sure, she had used a toy or two before, but those were just phallusies compared to the real thing.
The first thing that her hormone-addled mind compelled her to do was inhale deeply and take in the musk of the stallion. She closed her eyes, letting the scent fill her nostrils and swirl around in her head. It smelled surprisingly good in her present state. In fact, it was downright intoxicating.
Applejack gave in to her base desires and gave the soft phallus in front of her a drawn out lick. That elicited a little pleased moan from Thunderlane, one that made AJ give his member another elongated lick, this time she drew her tongue from the base of the shaft all the way to the tip. As she passed the medial ring, the member twitched and began to stiffen and grow before her very eyes.
“You can use your hooves, too.” Thunderlane urged her, prompting a glare from Applejack. “J-Just a suggestion...” The stallion said nervously, obviously afraid of another hoof to the head or somewhere worse.
The farm pony brought a hoof up and stroked Thunderlane’s cock, drawing another moan from his lips. It took a few more strokes until he stood at full attention, the head of his member starting to flare out. Applejack took the opportunity to take the next step and took the now flared head into her mouth.
It was almost too big to fit comfortably in her mouth, and even just taking it made her jaw ache with how wide she had to open it. She let her tongue poke around the intrusive object, taking in its curves and ridges. Each little poke and stroke with her tongue made Thunderlane shift under her ministrations.
“It’s been awhile…” The pegasus moaned out, a pleased sigh following the statement. Applejack didn’t care about how long it had been for him, she barely knew anything about the stallion other than he worked with Dash. That’s all she wanted to know for the time being.
Applejack attempted to take more of the length of his shaft into her mouth, but she felt the tip hit the back of her throat and start to trigger her gag reflex. That was as far as she was going to be able to take it, and as far as she would like to. She closed her eyes and imagined the feeling of Thunderlane inside of her. The thought of the oral sex alone made her moan and blush harder than ever before.
The earth pony removed her hoof from the side of Thunderlane’s cock and moved it between her legs. The urge was too much for her to resist now. This session was for her, after all. Her hoof rubbed against her slit, the soft edges of her appendage moving between the folds and going as deep as she could make it.
That didn’t mean she was ignoring Thunderlane. She was still bobbing her head, taking as much of the stallion as she could, but she was much more focused on her own pleasure. She was rubbing against her hoof with renewed intensity, the thought of getting fucked by Thunderlane pushing her forward.
“A-Alright...” Thunderlane pulled his dick out of Applejack’s mouth. He was breathing heavily, his cock throbbing with every exhale. “I think I’m ready.” Applejack looked up, the hoof between her legs stopping itself. She saw that his golden eyes were focused on her wet hoof and the prize that lay between her rear legs. “I think I’m ready…”
He thought he was ready, while Applejack knew she was ready. For the past few days this had been the only thing on her mind, it had been the thing stopping her from getting anything done and she was finally ready to get it over with.
Breathlessly, Applejack stood up and turned around, and she lifted her tail up, presenting her rear for Thunderlane in a way she felt natural. A pair of strong black hooves rested on her barrel and a pressure pushed against her dripping slit. Applejack moaned for it, for a final release. She just wanted it, she needed it.
His engorged head pushed past her outer lips, eliciting a gasp from Applejack. She braced herself on her front legs as Thunderlane pushed his cock deeper into her. As his medial ring pushed past her lips, Applejack’s legs nearly buckled. Never before had she felt so… full or… complete.
“D-Deeper…” Applejack moaned out as the foreign member filled her insides. She tried to keep her tongue from rolling out of her mouth, but she was failing at that task. Applejack started to back up instinctively, pushing Thunderlane deeper inside of her.
The only response she received from her actions was Thunderlane grunting and starting to thrust into her. Every thrust from Thunderlane only added to the pleasure melting her thoughts. This is what Applejack had been missing out on, what she needed all along.
The wet, slapping sound of the stallion’s balls hitting her slit was music to her ears, in her lust-drunken state. Applejack closed her eyes and fell into a realm of sexual bliss.
Like an excited heartbeat, Thunderlane forced his meaty shaft into Applejack’s slit with a punishing ferocity. Any doubts or fears she had before were long gone, replaced by a hunger that only achieving her climax could satisfy.
“Ap-pplejack…” Thunderlane’s voice cracked cracked like an immature colt’s, telling the farm pony that he was experiencing a similar experience. “Y-Your so… t-tight…”
By the sound of his voice, Applejack could tell Thunderlane was arriving at his peak, the climax of their session. She could see the end of the tunnel, her ultimate goal. Applejack could feel the pressure building between her flanks. She was so close… Just a little… longer...
Her lips parted, and a loud moan escaped in a cry that could probably be heard from Ponyville. At that very same moment, Thunderlane let out a beast-like growl and forced his member into Applejack’s slit one final time, flooding her womb with his creamy seed.
In an instant, Applejack’s mind was clear. The fog that had kept her thinking about rutting had parted. Then, Applejack’s eyes widened with horror as the realization of what she had done, what Thunderlane had done, dawned on her.
Years of bucking trees clicked, and Applejack’s rear legs connected with Thunderlane’s legs like two hammers striking hot iron. Once they connected AJ made sure to follow-through, extending her legs fully.
The sheer force of the act sent Thunderlane careening across the barn and into a bale of hay. Applejack turned when he impacted, a fire in her eyes. She advanced on the stallion, her nostrils flaring in anger.
“What in the hay was that?!” She practically screamed at the pegasus. “What did ah tell ya? Ah said NO doin’ that!” Applejack didn’t even want to think of the possible ramifications of what had just transpired. They were too great and far too terrifying to even contemplate at the moment.
“I think you broke one of my fucking legs...” Thunderlane groaned out from the bale of hay. He was trying to sit up, but Applejack went over to his fallen form and placed a forceful hoof on one of his splayed out wings, grinding the feathers into the soiled wood beneath. “O-Ow! P-please don’t do that!”
“Funny, thought ah asked y’all somethin’ similar a few minutes ago.” AJ’s temper was taking control now, far more than before. The warm feeling of his seed in her innermost depths prevented her anger from subsiding. “What’s wrong with ya, huh? Y’all achin’ for a foal or somethin’?” Applejack ground her hoof, feathers breaking and bending beneath her most powerful tools.
“N-no!” Thunderlane wimpered, tears appearing in his eyes. His wing twitched and tried to move, but Applejack made sure that wasn’t an option. “I-I just-it felt so good!” Thunderlane managed to get out between breaths. “I-I just sorta forgot. I’m sorry!”
“Sorry ain’t gonna help us here!” Applejack fired back. “Ah swear, if ah get pregnant from this yer gonna be in a whole cartload of trouble.” Applejack finally withdrew her hoof, her furious glare never leaving the young stallion.
“Y-you asked me to do this!” Thunderlane cradled his wing close to him as he attempted to stand. His rear left leg was not even touching the ground, probably in too much pain from her bucking. “This is your fault too!”
“Get outta my barn.” Applejack growled out. This wasn’t her fault! This was his fault! This was nature’s fault for making her take such drastic measures! This was anypony’s fault other than hers! “Right now.”
Applejack took a threatening step towards Thunderlane, causing him to flinch backwards and hobble out of the barn as quickly as possible. Once he left the building, Applejack fell to her rump. All of her anger was exhausted now, only disappointment remained.
“Ah really screwed up this time…” She lamented, knowing that only she was listening. This was now her burden to bear, her stress to manage until she found out if this resulted in something.
This was not going to help Applejack keep her focus on her work. In fact, she might have to take a few days off to just deal with this mess.
Most ponies might be happy to take a few days off on account of a possible pregnancy.
Applejack was not.
Author's Note
So yeah, I felt like writing a bit of clop and this happened.
I know it's not a traditional mindless clopfic, but I still felt the need to structure it like a traditional story. It might work, it might not.
Also this is my first real 'clopfic'. Advice, feedback, etc. is all much appreciated!
Also I might continue this, not sure yet. I have some ideas.
Thanks for reading!
