Beauty and the Meek

The sound of a hoof at the door startled Fluttershy. She ruffled her wings and took a deep breath to calm herself. She was nervous; it had been almost a week since the "incident" (as she'd come to call it in her mind) in Rarity's bedroom, and she'd not seen her friend since. Scheduling conflicts, the unicorn had explained, but Fluttershy could not help but think she'd overstepped her boundaries. Certainly Rarity had been a willing participant, and 'Shy had no explanation for what had come over her that night. The need, the lust, the desire to lead her friend out of a dark place... The memory brought back shivers of pleasure. She shook her head to clear it.

"Coming!" she called, rising from the sofa and trotting to the door. She pulled it open to reveal a smiling Rarity. "Oh, you're early," she said, returning the smile. "I'd just finished putting the pets up. Angel was so cross."

Rarity beamed, inviting herself in. "Oh, you magnificent pegasus, you!" she gushed, gracing Fluttershy with a soft kiss on the cheek. Fluttershy blushed. "Thanks to you, my patented diamond fabric is all the rage in Manehattan!"

"Really?" Fluttershy asked, eyes wide.

Rarity nodded, setting the saddlebag she had arrived with down on the sofa. "Yes! Anypony who's anypony wants to sparkle and shine in my designs!" the unicorn beamed. Her azure eyes were glowing. "Without your..." Rarity felt her cheeks warm, “ah, your kindness, my mind would never have had the focus to finish."

"I... I just like to see my friends happy," Fluttershy replied, looking down bashfully. Rarity took a step towards her and lifted her chin with a tender nudge of her horn.

"I always repay a kindness, darling."

Her tone was soft, sultry, and her words hung in the air like dewdrops on a spiderweb. Fluttershy's heart beat rapidly in the pregnant silence. Rarity beamed.

"And that's why I wanted to come tonight! To show you my gratitude!" the unicorn continued, going to her saddlebag. She flung the latch open and retrieved a white sheet, spreading it out over the living room floor with a flourish.

"W-what's that for?" Fluttershy asked, raising one forehoof in uncertainty.

"All in good time, my dear," Rarity replied. Her aura summoned several candles from the saddlebag and arranged them artfully around the perimeter of the sheet, the cornflower blue magic coaxing the wicks to life. "Can you do something about how bright it is, darling? It positively kills the mood."

"M-mood?" Fluttershy stammered, beyond nervous now. The situation was rapidly spinning out of her control. Rarity eyed her, one eyebrow arched elegantly.

"For the massage, silly pony."

"Oh! Oh, of course!" Fluttershy laughed, blushing furiously. She obliged her friend, pulling the window shades, and returned to the living room, where Rarity now sat on the white sheet. The flickering candlelight cast dancing shadows on her ivory coat, and Fluttershy was once more struck with how lovely her friend was. The opalescent cast of her horn was enchanting. 'Shy remembered the feel of its smooth hardness against her hot tongue, the slick feel of between her thighs on ‘Shy’s hoof. Did Rarity taste as good there as she looked?

"Come, lay here," Rarity instructed, patting the center of the sheet with her hoof.

Fluttershy nodded and did so, settling down with her wings folded at her sides. Rarity moved to sit at her haunches, taking care not to step on her friend's long tail.

"Now, you tell me if I'm pressing too hard... it isn't enjoyable if it hurts too much," Rarity winked. Fluttershy laughed, blushing.

"Ok..."

The pegasus closed her eyes as Rarity began to knead between her shoulder blades with the tips of her hooves. Oh, the relaxation! A shiver traveled down Fluttershy's spine and caused her tail to twitch. Rarity saw, and smiled. Down, down, Rarity moved her hooves, gently easing the tension and the knots from the muscles along either side of her friend's back, to her haunches and back up, easing her hooves against the base of her skull, using her magic to run the teeth of an invisible comb through Fluttershy's thick, pink mane.

"It's wonderful Rarity," Fluttershy sighed. "I could fall asleep..."

"You know," the unicorn said, moving to straddle the softly contoured haunches of her friend. "I want to try something else." Rarity placed her muzzle against the velvety lining of Fluttershy's delicate ear. "Apparently, pegasi find it quite... pleasurable... to preen one another..."

Fluttershy's left wing snapped open with a feathery *pompf!* Her cheeks turned bright red and she nearly bucked Rarity off her back.

"Oh! Oh my! Oh, Rarity! I'm so... I'm so sorry! How embarrassing!" she gushed, trying bring the errant appendage under control. The unicorn nipped at ‘Shy's ear.

"Hardly, darling... it was just the reaction I was hoping for..."

Fluttershy gulped.

"Would you let me? I've never, but it's the only way I can think of to repay what you've done for me."

"I..." the pegasus began. Her heart hammered in her chest. She knew Rarity could feel it. How could she tell her? How could she confess to her friend? How intimate of an act this was? How, since she'd left Cloudsdale, she had never...?

"Oh my... would I be your first?" Rarity asked suddenly, as if she read Fluttershy's thoughts. The pegasus nodded slowly, her cheeks on fire. Rarity felt her eyes fill with tears. Yet, she was happy. She nuzzled ‘Shy's neck tenderly. "Spread your wing for me, darling, if you trust me... and I will be gentle. Please... may I?"

Slowly, shakily, Fluttershy extended her left wing again, nodding her consent. Rarity slid off her back and rested at her side, keeping their bodies touching, and looked at the feathers.

"They shimmer so pretty in the candlelight, Fluttershy," she told her. "I know that these..." She touched the primary flight feathers with the tip of her hoof. "The pennae volatus, are the most important ones. So you must keep them cleanest of all."

Fluttershy took a deep breath and held it as Rarity lowered her head. A moan escaped her lips as she felt the unicorn's warm tongue touch her wing. The delicate lick that tickled her feathers made her gasp. All the way along the edge of her wing, Rarity's lips danced. Fluttershy's leg trembled.

"Rarity..." she managed to groan, feeling the insides of her thighs tingling with heat.

The unicorn did not reply verbally, instead adding a soft nibble to the preen, making Fluttershy squeak. When she reached the tip of her wing, Rarity worked back up the edge, nipping each soft, small feather, supporting the important appendage with her hooves. Fluttershy bit her lower lip and watched her friend with lidded eyes, feeling a rising urgency grow within her. Her coat was now utterly soaked between her thighs, and she fought the urge to place her hoof there.

"What's this?" Rarity murmured, tonguing something hard in the midst of the feathery softness.

"It's... it's a pinfeather..." ‘Shy gasped. "You have to... bite... and break... the keratin sheath... to expose... the new growth..."

"Hmmmm," Rarity replied, testing the pinfeather with her teeth. Fluttershy shivered, panting. Rarity bit down gently. The sheath gave way with a soft crack.

Shy swallowed a scream, that urgency boiling to a head, rushing into every extremity, filling her existence with warmth. Her eyes closed for a moment in ecstasy.

"Did that hurt?" Rarity asked, hearing her friend's labored breathing.

The pegasus smiled innocently, though her eyes were anything but. "A little... but... in a good way."

"Oh my," Rarity laughed, blushing. Fluttershy joined her in laughter as well, embracing her friend tightly with forelegs and wings. The pegasus nuzzled the unicorn.

“I… I need more,” Fluttershy surprised herself by saying. Rarity met her eyes, and their cast was submissive, lustful, looking up at her friend from beneath thick lashes.

“I know,” the unicorn whispered. A soft glow began to emanate from her horn, and Fluttershy whimpered as a firm sensation pulled her legs apart. “Let me?”

“I want you to…”

Rarity moved silently to Fluttershy’s rear. She gazed down at the sight exposed below her friend’s gorgeous tail–pink and wet and inviting. The unicorn placed a hoof on either side of ‘Shy’s aching cunt, and ran her tongue from clit to just below the tightly puckered rose of her ass. The pegasus moaned.

“You taste–” Rarity began.

“Again,” Fluttershy interrupted, lifting herself up into Rarity’s muzzle. The fashionista obeyed–why was she so driven to this sudden desire to please?–and repeated the firm, deliberate lapping. Fluttershy moaned loudly, both her wings extending in a display of pleasure. The feathers positively glowed in the candlelight. Rarity’s muzzle was soaked with the moisture of ‘Shy’s arousal, but the normally prissy unicorn did not care. All that mattered was bringing her friend to climax, pleasing the pegasus and earning her praise.

Why does that matter so much? the unicorn wondered in the back of her mind as her tongue danced in and out teasingly. Because you need it… her subconscious answered.

“Rarity…” Fluttershy moaned, bucking back against her friend’s muzzle again. “ I think… I’m…”

“Please, darling,” Rarity murmured against the pegasus’ delicate dripping folds. Her tongue worked feverishly now–it ached where it connected to the bottom of her mouth but she did not care. All that mattered was this moment, this taste, this–

“Ahhhh!” Fluttershy cried, rising up on her back hooves. Rarity buried her tongue and muzzle as deeply as she could between ‘Shy’s legs. She could feel her friend twitch and quiver. It filled her with joy.

As the waves of ‘Shy’s orgasm ebbed, she turned to face Rarity. Throwing her front legs around the unicorn, she embraced her tightly, covering her mouth with a passionate kiss.

“I can taste myself on you,” the pegasus whispered huskily. “Good girl…”

The unicorn blushed furiously, her heart pounding.

Good girl… I’m a good girl...

"That was wonderful, Rarity.... thank you," Fluttershy continued with a sigh. Rarity winked.

"Don't thank me," she smiled, still bashful, her eyes lowered. 'Shy sensed a change in the dynamic between them she could not quite put her hoof on, but they were more than friends now–lovers? "I was only making sure you felt as good as I did. It seemed the right thing to do. Besides..." She looked up at last, eyes twinkling, "I only found one pinfeather so far..."
