Part 1 - "An Affectionate Cleansing"

There you sit, nose to the grindstone. The thick disk of stone continues spinning about as your foot taps the pedal. Scraping sounds fill your ears as the blade of the sword meets its spinning surface.

“That’s fifty-six,” you speak aloud, lifting the blade from the stone.

Grabbing another scabbard, you carefully sheath the finished weapon and nod, placing it beside several of the others. Life in Equestria has been good. Even more so than you would have imagined, as you recall that fateful day when Princess Celestia visited you on Earth and offered you a chance for a new life.

You head over to the dwindling pile of unsharpened swords, securing another in the leathery confines of your gloved hand. Returning to your wooden stool, you sit back down and resume spinning the sharpening stone. As you begin sharpening the next sword, you pause for a moment.

Looking around your partially enclosed work area, you smile. After laboring in various factories and warehouses on Earth, you would have never thought that you’d find so much joy in working at a blacksmith’s forge. Let alone end up becoming one of the owner’s most valued employees here in the bustling town of Canterlot.

Just as you thought before, Life is good. You would have never guessed that your love for collecting medieval and fantasy swords would grow into something more than a hobby here in Equestria. You take a deep breath and smile, thinking how it also played a pivotal role in improving your love life. It was more than a happy surprise when you discovered that Princess Cadence had a fascination for swords and how they were forged. Thus, it was all the sweeter when she visited your stall at the Summer Sun Celebration, while you took care of things for your boss, Pike. The princess was positively spellbound as you showed her various crafted items from the forge, which included several you made personally.

A snicker rolls off your tongue, as your cheeks grow warm. And then, what happened next was unbelievable. She asked you to accompany her to watch Princess Celestia raise the sun to start the first day of summer and kick off the height of the festival.

“What a mare.” You sigh, thinking about Cadence. True, after living in Equestria for nearly two years, you were no stranger to the fairer pony sex, but like most humans, you just hadn’t found the right pony after opening yourself to dating the local mares. But Cadence, she was different. Sure, she was and still is fascinated from your being a human, but more than that, she’s been happy getting to know the real you. And that’s made things all the sweeter.

“Ah, you’re still here, lad,” the familiar voice of your boss calls out.

You shake your head, realizing you got carried away thinking and ended up daydreaming instead. Looking up from the sharpening stone, you see the older stallion standing there. His pale orange coat looks even duller in the shadows of the partially enclosed roof of the forge as he stands there staring at you with his lavender eyes.

“Yes, Pike. I wanted to finish sharpening these swords.” You point to the finished pile of sheathed blades resting along the nearby wall.

“Good, good work as always, boy. I just thought I’d let you know I’m going to head out. The others helped clean up and have already left.” Pike chuckles under his breath. “Seems they’re always eager to leave at the end of the day. But not you.”

You blink up at him, not entirely sure what to say, other than, “Just doing my job, sir.”

The ends of a particularly large smile peak out from around his gray moustache, which matches his mane and tail. “And a fine one you’re doing, just as always.” Pike sighs. “Seems the age old saying is true, “Good help is hard to find.” Hey.” He turns his head. “I see you took care of the fire.”

“That’s right.” You nod, while keeping the sword held tightly in your hand. “It’s been a hot one today and once I knew the others were done firing any metal, I saw no need to keep it burning. Besides, why waste the charcoal, and I can’t speak for the others, but when it’s hot out, I like to do my smelting and shaping in the morning.” You smile, glancing over at the furnace.

“Ha, ha, ha, ha. I can’t say I blame you there. Of course we could always order more charcoal. Nya, ha, ha, ha.” Pike just waves a hoof and says your name. “Forgive me, lad. I sometimes find myself amused at the oddest of things.”

You smile and shake your head. “Don’t worry, it’s one of the things I’ve always liked about having you as my boss.”

Pike nods, still snickering a bit. “Well, all right then. I’m on my way out.” He starts for the door, then stops. “Oh, and I can’t forget. You don’t need to come back in till Monday. Things are slowing down a little and I doubt I’ll be here long tomorrow.” The stallion scratches his chin. “There are just a few things I want to work on.” Then, he gives you one more look. “Once you’re done with those, just close up shop. Everything else it done. And don’t push yourself too hard.”

“Don’t worry, Pike. I won’t.”

“Oh, and be sure to say, "hello," to that lovely mare of yours.” He looks back at you a faint glint of jealousy in his eyes. “Give Princess Cadence my best, won’t you?”

“Of course. Have a good evening.”

“I will. And…heh, heh. I’m almost certain that yours will be quite memorable you lucky dog. Bwah, ha, ha, ha, ha!” Pike trots off laughing boisterously.

You just shrug your shoulders and refocus on your task, bearing a serious look as occasional sparks fly off from the sword, while its blade resumes brushing the grindstone and continues to sharpen.

Now that another sword is ready, you feel a delightful sense of accomplishment. And as you raise the sword to sheath it, you note how firm your arm muscles feel. Working at the forge has been a great way for you to tone up and get in shape. Lifting the heavy hammers and shoveling charcoal for the fire, not to mention working the bellows to stoke the furnace are all great cardiovascular and muscle building activities. A slight grin forms on your face as you note just how many of the items you yourself forge here such as: weapons, armor and even everyday items, which are used in the Canterlot Royal Palace. This gives you an even greater sense of purpose, knowing that you can do something to help repay Princess Celestia for her kindness in bringing you to this world.

You finish a few more swords and come to the final one. Walking it over to the grindstone, you sit down. “You’re the last one.” You prepare to step onto the pedal, just as you hear the back door of the shop open and close. Halting your actions, you notice a distinct set of hoofsteps approaching. “Pike?” You call out. “Did you forget something?”

Taking a moment to give a proper listen, you notice something familiar about them, something elegant. You shake you head. “It couldn’t be.” Glancing at a nearby clock, your eyes widen as you notice the time. “Then again…”

“Hello,” you hear a gentle voice ring out your name. “Are you here, sweetheart?”

You feel a rush of exhilaration as you realize it must be her. “I’m out here at the forge.”

You hear the hoof beats hasten, as she nears your position in the forge. Her steps are louder now, but still very delicate. Looking up from the grindstone, you see her. “Cadence,” you call to her.

Her face lights up as she catches sight of you. “There you are.” She hastens her gait as she eagerly rushes over to you.

You stand to greet her, wiping some soot from your cheek as you give her a loving smile. “Honey, what are you doing here?”

Cadence giggles, before playfully smacking her hoof into your shoulder. “I’m here to see you, silly.”

A grin forms on your face. “I gathered that, but I didn’t think I’d see you till I got home.”

She bats her lovely lavender eyes at you and smiles. “Well, my afternoon meeting ended much sooner than I expected. Once I took care of a little paperwork, I happened to notice the time.” Cadence giggles again. “So, I stopped by the house to freshen up a bit and thought I’d surprise you here at the forge. This way we can walk home together.”

You feel a strong pull in your heart. “Aww, Cadence, that’s really sweet of you.”

Her eyes sparkle. “I knew you’d like it.”

“Of course.” You walk over to Cadence and she draws you into a loving hug. Just as you go to place your arms around her, you stop. “Oh no, Cadence.”

Not caring about a thing, she rests her head on your shoulder. “What is it, sweetheart?”

“I’m still wearing my apron, it’s filthy. Aww man, I’m gonna get you all dirty.” You groan somewhat angrily for forgetting yourself.

Cadence pulls back, leaving her hooves hooked along your shoulders, still all smiles. “Relax, I knew the risks when I came here to see you.” She laughs, and then her cheeks begin to blush. “Besides, I’m about to get a little dirtier.”

You look at her and blink for a moment. Then, you see the look in her eyes, just before they close. A smile briefly curls up on your lips as you lean in to share one of her enticing kisses. Cadence’s loving lips met your own, filling you with a sense of calm and wonder. She immediately pushes her lips against yours as she moans sweetly for you. “Mmm…” You relish her loving kiss, wrestling your lips tenderly with hers, and leave care to wind. Just like every kiss you’ve shared with her since your very first, you feel the sincerest of love pouring out from her. You quickly lose your work gloves and move to embrace her, wanting to return every ounce of love she’s giving you.

The kiss continues a while longer and you never know how she does it, but every time Cadence kisses you, you feel almost like you’re melting inside and happily she seems to melt as well.

Finally, your lips part. Cadence pulls back slightly, her eyes glowing with love as a fresh smile forms on her expressive face. “Hmm, I don’t think I’ll ever tire of kissing you.”

“Yeah, I feel the same. Oh, your cheek.” You lightly pat Cadence’s cheek.

She giggles, her cheeks blush a little brighter. “Yes well, I knew I was going to get dirtier. And you know something?”

“And what’s that?” You ask, looking at her fondly.

“I guess you’re not the only one that’s going to need a shower when we get home now.” Cadence grins, before she runs a gilded hoof through your hair.

Knowing there’s no point in trying to keep your mare from getting dirty, you reach out and caress her beautiful mane. “So, that was your plan all along?”

“Maybe,” she replies, giving you an adorable look.

“Mm-hmm. Oh, before we go home. I need to finish sharpening this last sword. It’s part of an order the princess placed for five dozen of them. Apparently these will be for a bunch of new recruits in the royal guard.”

Cadence nods, continuing to smile. “All right, not a problem. Oh and when we get home…do you think I could interest you in some company in the shower? Hmm?” She leans toward you and gives you a suggestive wink.

You chuckle as you put your gloves back on and return to the grindstone. “Of course, you know I enjoy a steamy shower. Besides, I’ve got to help clean a dirty mare like you some how.”

Cadence lets out a long sigh as she stands there contently waving her tail, while watching you work.

A warm rush careens throughout your body as you catch sight of her standing there. As the blade continues to sharpen, you feel grateful beyond words to know that such a treasure is patiently waiting for you to finish and then will be walking home with you.

Your smile grows as you see Cadence continue to keep her eyes glued to you while you run the blade back and forth across the spinning stone. After checking it over, you stop the wheel and return to your feet. Taking the last scabbard, you ensconce the sword, placing it with the others.

“There, my love. All done for the day.” You nod turning to look her way.

She smiles and stands tall. “Wonderful.”

“I just need to put my tools away. I already doused the fire earlier and the others were kind enough to help clean up before they left.” You note, while walking over to your workbench.

After removing your apron and gloves, you put them away and return to your beloved. “Sorry to keep you waiting, my lady. Shall we go?”

Cadence leans up against you, nuzzling you affectionately. “Yes. And don’t worry, I didn’t mind waiting, not for you.” She coos softly, you can certainly tell she’s been missing you.

The two of you head out, now that the place is secure and closed up for the day. You place your arm around Cadence as the two of you make your way into the streets of Canterlot, bound for home.

* * * * * *

It’s a little after 4PM, and the sun is still well above the horizon as the two of you arrive at your Canterlot residence. Despite the oppressive heat, the two of you enjoyed a pleasant stroll from forge.

Cadence wipes a hoof across her forehead. “Phew, you can certainly tell that it’s still summer.”

You chuckle as Cadence walks up to the front door with you. “You aren’t kidding. It’s definitely a scorcher today. Makes me glad I did all my metal working in the morning.”

“I’m sure. Ahh, now to go inside and cool off.” The princess grins as she waits for you to dig out your key.

Unlocking the front door, you slowly open it and a refreshing breath of cool air greets you. “Mmmm, I’m so glad Equestria has it’s own type of air conditioning.” You muse.

“Me too.” She chuckles.

Yes, it’s no secret to you or anyone in Equestria. Prominent businesses and the homes of the more wealthy and well off, have unique devices much like the air conditioners humans have on Earth. Only, instead of using a refrigerant like Freon, the ponies discovered a special type of crystal in the far northern tier of Equestria. There, caverns of these crystals, which are typically referred to as “cold crystals” are collected for use in these devices. Unlike ice, these crystals never melt. Some ponies believe magic or a magical being formed them long ago. Regardless, they have helped to revolutionize cooling appliances, seeing as the crystals aren’t harmful to the environment and all they need to operate is an electrical current.

Standing aside, you allow Cadence to enter first and then follow closely behind her, before shutting the door. The cooled air welcomes you both and banishes the heat and humidity from outside, offering you a wonderful refuge.

Looking around, you feel even better now that you and your mare are home. And what a nice home you two share in Canterlot. A solid gray brick structure with a shingled roof. It’s a nice size and has everything you could want on two modest but surprisingly roomy floors.

Cadence turns to you, smiling once again. “It’s so good to be home.” She sighs, leaning against you.

You run your hand along her velvety pink barrel. “I couldn’t have said it better myself.” You sigh, giving her an affectionate pat. “Well, I don’t know about you, but I’d like to get that shower. I feel all grungy.”

“Well, we can’t have that.” Cadence giggles.

She shares a brief nuzzle with you, then you smile lovingly as the two of you make your way upstairs. You enter the bedroom, followed closely by your loving alicorn.

Heading over to the closet, you gather some more casual attire, for the evening. Then, after fetching some socks and underwear from the dresser, you take a seat on the bed.

Cadence parks herself beside you and lets out a happy sigh, resting along your shoulder. “Good, I was hoping you’d want to take a little breather.”

You chuckle, running the back of your hand gingerly along her gorgeous locks. “Of course, honey. It was a busy day.”

She snickers a little. “I can imagine. You had all those swords and I had that meeting and paperwork. But it’s all worth it.” She lets out a dreamy sigh. “Especially now. I missed you.”

You lock an arm around Cadence and pull her closer. “I missed you, too.” Your cheek comes to rest along her silky hair. “Ahh, Cadence,” you sigh.

She coos softly, a faint giggle slips past her lips. “I love it when you hold me.” Cadence leans a little harder into you.

Your turn slightly, so you can fully embrace her. “Good, then I’ll never let you go.” You chuckle, taking a lengthy stare into her eyes. “I was thinking about the day we met, before you arrived at the forge.”

A thoughtful smile morphs onto her face. “Oh, you were?”

“Yeah, while I was working on those swords. I was just thinking how much better my life became, after I met you.”

Cadence closes her eyes, still all smiles. “And hard to believe that was over two and half months ago. Where does the time go?”

“I know what you mean.” You nuzzle her tresses a bit more. “I’m so glad you were single when we met.”

She sighs softly, leaning against you. “So am I.”

You continue to count your blessing and feel more than lucky to be with Cadence. Originally, she had been dating Shining Armor, the proud captain of the royal guard. You never would have guessed that close to eight months before you met Cadence, that she had ended things with her former stallion. As you came to learn, Cadence had been happy with Shining, but after he proposed to her, well, that’s when things started to change. The princess didn’t take his offer of marriage lightly, but she told you that after giving it some serious thought, she just didn’t see him as the stallion she wanted to be with forever. You still don’t know all the reigning details, but perhaps there were qualities Shining Armor lacked as a lover.

Phasing back to reality, the nuances seem even less important to you. Besides, had Cadence stayed with Shining Armor, you never would have gotten this once in a lifetime chance to be with such an amazing mare.

You give Cadence a loving squeeze and take a deep breath. “Mmm, you smell so nice.”

Your mare giggles. “I put on more of my perfume when I freshened up earlier. I know how much you like it.”

“Of course. Sniff.” You inhale another whiff of her intoxicating scent. It’s the smell of roses and just a suggestion of honeysuckle combined with her normal perspiration.

Cadence adjusts slightly, partially burying her muzzle along your chest. She sniffs you and sighs. “Oh, you smell nice too. The smell of sweat and soot from my hard working man…mmm, and that wonderful cologne I got you.” She sniffs you again. “The perfect combination of spice and musk.”

“What can I say, it’s become my scent.” You chuckle, rubbing her back.

“It makes me happy that you still wear it. I wasn’t sure at the time I bought it, if you were going to like it.”

“It’s was and still is a great fragrance, besides it was a very thoughtful gift form you.”

Cadence looks up at you cutely. “Mmm, you really know how make a mare feel touched, don’t you?”

You pull her close again and savor the sweep of her mane. “I always try my best.” Closing your eyes for a moment, you rest your chin on her forehead, minding her horn. “So, you ready for that shower?”

“Mm-hmm. Did we want to use the shower in here or shower in the tub out in the hallway bathroom? Not that it matters to me.” Cadence rambles a little, then runs her hooves up your back and pulls affectionately on your shoulders.

“The one in here is fine.” You kiss her forehead, just before you both get up off the bed.

* * * * * *

The two of you make your way into the bathroom. Even though there is one in the upstairs hallway, you’ve always been glad to have a nice size one right in the back of your master bedroom.

You breathe a relieved sigh, while you remove your soiled clothing and toss it into the hamper. Turning to Cadence, you give a happy nod and see that she has already taken care of removing her regalia before she left the bedroom.

Cadence saunters over to you, shamelessly swaying her flanks and flipping her tail as she beams you a loving smile. You share her smile and brush a stray lock of hair out of her face. “What?” she asks.

You chuckle. “I’m just glad we’re together again. And you know I love it when you’re in a playful mood.” Cadence smiles, while you caress her cheek. “It’s also nice to just savor the moment, standing here, the two of us about shower.” You shake your head. “I probably sound foolish.”

Cadence moves closer to you and places her hoof on your shoulder. “Nonsense. You’re just speaking from the heart.” She eyes you up form your toes back up to your face, her cheeks turn red as her smile reflects the exhilaration in her eyes. “I still feel giddy whenever I stand naked with you. It gives me chills.”

You caress her mane with the back of your hand and share her affectionate gaze. “I’m glad you do.” Then, draping your arm around her, you lead her to the shower. Partially sliding back the door, Cadence watches you intently as you turn on the water. After you adjust the knobs, you dangle your hand into the falling water. “Yeah, that should do. Nice and cool with just a hint of warmth.”

“Sounds perfect.” Cadence smiles, resting her head on your shoulder.

You lean your cheek against the side of her head for a moment, before you slide the backend of the shower door open. “After you, my sweet.”

“All right, dear, if you insist.” Cadence giggles as she steps over the short lip of the shower and turns back giving you a “come hither” look.

You waste no time going in after her, sliding the door shut behind you. Then, you happily turn back to meet your loving princess.

Cadence moves under the shower’s torrent, sighing as the cool water soaks her fur and hair, falling from her elegant form.

“Come on over, my love. The water feels great.”

You join her under the gentle cascade – the shower’s cool water is soothing on your tired back and shoulders. “Ahh, that’s nice,” you sigh. Cadence brushes against you and coos softly. Her presence invigorates you and starts to drive the fatigue from your body.

The two of you step away form the water, it only partially falling on you now. Cadence moves closer to you and places her hooves around your back and rests her head on your shoulder.

“Feeling relaxed already?” You ask, while slipping your arms around her.

“Yes,” she whispers her voice just a little louder than the raining shower.

“Good.” You reach for the cleaning sponge and hold it under the shower. Then you grab the bottle of body wash. A new smile decorates your face as you pop the top, inviting its refreshing and clean scent into the shower. You were very delighted to learn that manufacturers in Equestria have already come up with soap that both humans and ponies can share in the tub or shower, not mention they also developed shampoo as well. It certainly makes showering with your special somepony a lot more convenient.

You squeeze some of the blue gel onto the sponge and work it into a nice lather. Placing the sponge against Cadence’s shoulder, you start washing her beautiful pink fur, working the sponge around her rough, over to her other shoulder, and then as her eyes meet yours, you carefully clean her face and neck, before you run it down each of her forelegs.

Glancing up, you can miss the sight of Cadence’s slender horn. Smiling, you place the sponge at the base of her horn and start cleaning her magical conduit.

She sighs softly as you work your way up her horn. “Be gentle,” she whispers in an angelic tone.

“Always,” you reply softly, applying the greatest of care as you finish lathering her lovely horn, before you look her sweetly in the eye and move on.

Cadence chuckles as you start working the sponge along her back. “Well, at this point, I guess we don’t have to debate who goes first.”

You snicker softly, gently scrubbing the sides of her slender barrel. “Yes well, you seemed so content, and you know I usually like to let my lady go first.”

Her cheeks redden. “Yes, I know. That’s one of the many reasons I love you.”

“Wings.” You speak softly. Cadence smiles, carefully unfolding her aerial appendages. You lean in close to her ear. “And I love you, my sweet Cadence.” She coos at the sound of your thoughtful words.

As you begin cleaning her wings, Cadence moans faintly and speaks your name in a shivered whisper. “Ohh…you never let me forget that my wings can be quite sensitive at times.”

Shaking your head, you continue your loving ministrations. “Of course not.” You try not to grin too obviously.

Moving to her side, you reach under and suds up her chest and belly, making sure to get any spots on the back of her forelegs you might have missed. Returning to her barrel, you lather back to her beautiful cutie mark, the multifaceted light blue crystal heart with gold laces. You’ve always found her mark to be one the loveliest you’ve ever seen.

Deftly, you clean the fur around her mark, giving equal attention to both flanks. You grin a little as Cadence starts to lightly flip her dripping tail, while you start down her gorgeous hind legs. After finishing them both, you start on her rump, making little circles with the sponge.

Cadence moans slightly as she looks back at you. Then, her mouth opens partially as she shivers and moans in a tone that’s almost silent, her eyes close and she sighs contently, while you tenderly clean her marehood, lightly rubbing the sponge across her delicate nub, before probing just inside her enticing folds.

Unable to help yourself, you trace her folds with the fingers of your free hand until you brush across her protruding clit. You give it a firm but very tender squeeze, eliciting an extremely pleasant moan from Cadence. She coos and whimpers softly as you slip a single finger inside her and swirl it a few times, making sure she’s been properly lathered within.

She leans against you, whimpering in soothing sighs as you finish tending to her crescent. Turning back, you smile. “There you are, Cadence. All clean.”

“Already?” she speaks softly, her eyes still closed.

“Yeah.” You remain beside her and run the back of your hand along her wet mane.

Cadence sighs, sounding half entranced. “Oh, you can be so evil at times.” Her eyes open and a playful smile curls up on her lips.

“Evil, I’m not sure about that. I just thought you’d like a thorough cleaning, along with a little preview of later on.” You smile a bit suggestively.

She turns around to face you, soap trailing down her cheeks and neck. Cadence places her hooves on your cheeks and pulls you in for a loving kiss.

You nearly drop the sponge as your mare takes you a little by surprise. Placing your free arm around her, you try not to let it slip on any of the soap as your lips continue to push against hers in a very amorous display.

She pulls back, her warm breath falling softly along your face. “It was a wonderful preview. Though, I’m sure the real thing will be even better.” Cadence giggles.

You can’t help but chuckle. “You know it will.” You smile, sweeping the back of your hand along her cheek. “You can wash off now.”

Cadence giggles again as she steps back into the cool torrent. “Just you wait till we’re done in here.” She muses, giving you a sinister look, one you know she doesn’t really mean. Although, Cadence does tend to be playful when she’s in the mood, this makes you eager for later tonight. After all, you relish any chance to make love to your sweet princess. But, just what did she mean, when she mentioned waiting till you were done in here? You ponder her words for a moment, but lose your focus as you watch her rinse off, and are still half beside yourself from being with such an amazing mare like her.

After rinsing the suds from her body, Cadence steps back over to you. You hold up the sponge and she happily takes it from you. “All right. Your turn.” She grins holding the sponge aloft in the pale blue of her magic.

Cadence adds some fresh gel to the sponge and renews its lather. Her face softens considerably as the love blooms back in her eyes. A jubilant smile adds to her façade as she steps up to you. Cadence kisses your lips briefly, then decides to follow your lead and start with your shoulders.

Happiness and love mirror in her lavender eyes as she washes you. You close your eyes for a moment, savoring the movement of the sponge along your upper back and shoulders. Then, as she sweeps it across your chest, you notice drips along your arm. Looking over at her, you smile. “You’re not using your magic?”

She shakes her head. “Uh-uh.” The sweetest look is on her face as she runs the sponge in circles along your chest and belly. “I’m really enjoying washing you this way.” Cadence chuckles. “Besides, I seem to recall you finding it cute whenever you see me doing something with my hooves.”

You nod as she motions you to hold up your arm. “I really do. You know me so well.” Cadence looks at you fondly, before continuing with your arm.

A happy chuckle leaves your mouth as she reaches your hand. Cadence pauses, a half-unnerving expression on her face. She runs her other hoof over your hand and sighs. “Before we met, I never would have guessed I’d end up with one of you humans. One thing’s for sure.” She cocks her head to look at you. “I’ll never tire of these.” Cadence rubs her hoof over your extended fingers.

You smile at her as you move your fingers along the end of her foreleg, then turn your palm to line up with the end of her hoof. “And one thing’s for sure, my princess.”

Cadence blinks her eyes, leaving them partially closed as she looks at you. “Yes?”

You clutch her hoof and pull her closer. “I’ll never tire of you.” Taking your soap free hand, you caress her cheek. Cadence leans into your palm. “You’re such an amazing pony.”

Cadence coos softly and looks up at you, all smiles. “And I know, in addition to your hands, I’ll always be glad I’m with you. Even if the waters get rough.”

“Same here.” You nod, pulling your fingers away from her cheek, very slowly.

She sighs one more time as she finishes with your hand, then moves on to scrub your other hand and makes her way up your arm.

Her smile shows no sign of fading as Cadence finishes under your arms. “Close your eyes now, I’m going to do your face quick.”

“Okay.”

You happily do as she asks. A big smile curls up on your face as she cleans the dirty spots off your cheeks and forehead. “Would you turn around, please? I want to get your back, before I do your legs.” She giggles. “Or before I go any lower than I am right now.”

You chuckle, turning around to give Cadence easy access to your back. You peer over your shoulder, stealing another glance at her calming countenance. Returning your eyes to the back of the shower, you take a deep breath as she scrubs your back. Your cheeks tighten in response to your growing smile, once you hear Cadence start to hum. Her muffled vocalizations are sweet and soothing, just like her tender motions as she cleans your back.

She takes care of washing your rear, before tapping your shoulder. “You can turn around again.”

You rest your gaze on her and smile, while reaching out your lathered arm to caress her dampened mane. “Cadence.”

She smiles and lightly blushes, her normal reaction when she knows your budding with affection.

Cadence sighs happily, before she runs the sponge over your legs, first one and then other, making sure to soap them thoroughly front and back. Then, she smiles, as she starts to scrub around your groin. The proximity of her touch to your manhood sends jolts of anticipatory pleasure up your back, and as soon as the sponge passes along your sack, you feel your masculinity rise to the occasion. Your cheeks grow a little warm, not from embarrassment, but rather from the exhilaration of Cadence’s touch.

The alicorn giggles as she looks up at you. “I guess I’m not the only one feeling relaxed.”

You grin briefly. “Yes well, I’ve always found your touch to be very soothing.”

Cadence smiles as she starts to work the sponge along your manhood. “I remember and I can certainly see that.” She giggles, while savoring her work. “It has been a while though, hasn’t it?” Cadence muses.

You nod without a moment’s hesitation. “Yeah, well, not that long. A couple days at least…maybe…um more.” You hang your head. “Longer than I wanted.”

She gives your shaft one more quick going over. “I suppose it couldn’t be helped.” Cadence lets out a wry chuckle. “It’s been a tiring few days for both of us, hasn’t it? The work you have at the forge…and.” She sighs heavily. “We know my crown doesn’t come without its weight.”

You pat the back of her head sympathetically. “I know, honey. I know.” You move your hand to cup her chin and ease her eyes up to look at you. A hopeful smile forms on your face as you reply, “But I suspect tonight, we’ll more than make up for it.”

Cadence smiles and speaks confidently, “I know we will.” Then, she gives you a quick looking over. “You’re good to go. Oh…” She runs her hoof along the underside of your spire, tickling your flesh, before she gingerly fondles your sack.

Your eyes close and a pleasant moan slips past your lips. “Mmm, Cadence.”

She giggles again, giving your mast a few more tender swipes. “There, my preview for you, for later.”

You take in a deep breath and sigh. “I can hardly wait.” Looking Cadence in the eyes, you move closer to her and plant a loving kiss on her lips.

As your lips part, she looks at you, half in a daze. Then, she shakes her head and chuckles. “Go on, you. Rinse off already. Then we can shampoo and finish up.”

You laugh as you step under the shower’s torrent and rinse off all the suds. A playful smile forms on your face as you reach over and grab Cadence, pulling her close. “Your mane’s not wet enough. Come here.”

She smiles seductively at you, joining you under the showerhead as it pelts you both with its cooling rain. Your lips lock again, while you both allow the water to properly soak your hair.

Pulling back, just a little, you keep Cadence in your loving grip. She blinks her eyes at you and continues to give you an endlessly loving smile. “You know something?” she asks.

Shaking your head, you respond, “No, what?”

“It may have been several days since we last made love, but if you stay this affectionate, I’m even more confident than I was before that we’ll make up for it.” Cadence runs her hoof under your chin. “Besides, if memory serves me. We always do.”

“Yeah, since the first time we made love…we’ve always made it memorable.”

She smiles. “We really have, and it’s made our time together just…wonderful.”

“My love,” you whisper, finally letting her go. Turning to the small shelf, you grab the shampoo. “Here.”

Cadence smiles as she grips the bottle in her magic and pops the cap. She takes a deep breath and sighs. “Ooh, you grabbed the mint shampoo.” You nod happily. “Well then.” Cadence squeezes some of the shampoo on her hoof and onto your hand. Then, after setting the bottle down, the two of you begin lathering each other’s hair. She employs both of her hooves and covers your head with white suds, while lightly scrubbing your scalp. You in turn deftly work the shampoo throughout her lovely tresses.

“It’s refreshing, isn’t it?” You ask, as you continue scrubbing her mane.

Cadence nods. “It sure is.” She sighs. “It tingles a bit.”

“So does mine.”

She grins, giving you playful eyes. “Are you tingling anywhere else?”

You chuckle. “Not at the moment, but I’m sure I will be later on.” You wink at her.

Cadence blushes deeply. “I’ll be more than happy to make that happen. Oh…” Now, that her mane has been properly tended to, Cadence notices you turning your attention to her lengthy tail, making sure to get every lovely inch, and while there, you shamelessly indulge a loving look at her gorgeous crescent.

After the shampooing is complete, you stand beside Cadence. “There, I think that should do it.”

She smiles. “Did you enjoy shampooing my tail?”

You place a hand on her shoulder. “I always do.” You wink.

Cadence blushes and pats your chest. “I’m glad.”

The two of you step back under the shower and rinse off all the shampoo from your hair. The combination of water and suds plummets from your bodies and smacks the floor of the shower filling your ears with its sound, until you both step back.

“There, I think we got all of it.” Cadence looks over her mane and tail and then eyes your head. “Yeah, I don’t see any suds.”

You run your hand through her wet locks, and check her over, then run a lone hand through your hair. “Yeah, looks good to me.” Cadence smiles as you turn off both knobs, making the shower fall silent. Sliding back the door, the two of you exit the shower and step out onto the towels you placed on the floor.

Part 2 - "Passion and Tenderness"

Cadence snags your drying towels in her light blue magic and removes them from the towel rack. “Here,” she says, offering you one of the two towels.

You gaze at her fondly. “So, like we usually do when we shower…dry each other?” You flex your eyebrows and hold up your towel, giving it a light shake.

Your mare smiles back, a rosy blush still clinging to her beautiful cheeks. “Of course.” Cadence holds up her towel. Then, the two of you begin to vigorously run your towels over one another, and in a few minutes you both finish toweling off.

You place an arm around Cadence as you prepare to grab her towel. “I’d say we’re good to go, just let me…”

She shakes her head. “No, I’ve got them.” Cadence takes both towels in the grip of her magic and carefully returns them to the towel rack. “There. I have a feeling your workday was more physically draining then mine.”

You nod. “Yeah, I suppose it was. But still.” You pull your alicorn close. “I’m always happy to do my part…well, most of the time.” You grin a little sheepishly.

Cadence giggles. “Oh don’t worry. I tend to give you some leeway on those few times you’re less than enthused when it comes to doing things around the house.” She then gives you a seductive smile. “Besides, you always make it worth my while.”

“Yeah, I do.” You chuckle, while briefly giving her your bedroom eyes. “But you know something?”

“What?” Cadence watches as you go to get dressed. After pulling on a pair of underwear, she stops you. “Uh, just the underwear for right now.”

“Okay.” You look at her a little funny, wondering how she expects you to go to dinner in nothing but your underwear.

“And, you were saying.” She smiles at you, rubbing up against you; the lengthier side of her mane is still a little damp.

“I may sound crazy, but there are times I like it when we just cuddle in bed or I do something nice for you. You know, like the times I take you to a fancy restaurant or we have dinner at the castle or head out to a nice area to picnic. And there’s also the times when we just go for a walk and watch the sun rise or set.” You snag her in your arm again, running your hand along her nearly dry pink fur.

“Hmm, I love it when we do all of those things too. They make for some unforgettable memories.” Cadence sighs as the two of you walk airily back into the bedroom. Passing the vanity, she spies her hair. “Oh goodness. I’d better brush my mane.” She giggles, reaching for her hairbrush. Then, she smiles turning her head to look at you. “Unless, did you want to do it?”

A big smile forms on your face, and you almost grin, graciously taking the brush from her. “I’d love to. Though, I must say.” Eyeing her up, you can’t help but notice how she looks. “The partially wet mane look is rather sexy on you.”

Her cheeks nearly turn scarlet. “Oh, you really think so?” She leans against you giving you yet another of her adorable looks.

“You bet I do. Of course, I do love running my fingers through your mane when it’s dry. It feels even silkier then.”

She nods. “All right then. I’ll leave my hair in your capable hands.” Cadence giggles sweetly as you join her in sitting on the bed. She sits with her back to you, so you can have easy access to her lengthy locks.

“Now then, after I finish with your mane, I should really finish dressing. That way we can decide what we’re doing for dinner.”

Cadence looks back at you and nods. “Of course, darling. Mmm, I’m just glad we have some time to spend together. We have this evening and then all day tomorrow.”

You take a portion of her mane and start to gently run the brush through it, starting at the ends and working your way up. “Just tomorrow, what about Sunday?” you ask.

She sighs for a moment, enjoying your long and even brush strokes along her colorful yellow, violet and rose tresses. “Celestia and Luna need me to do some function or presentation, I forget what it’s for exactly. But, it will probably cut my Sunday in half, and not leave much time for us.”

“Oh?” you speak mindlessly, focusing on your loving task. You pull the brush through another section of her soft and enchanting mane. There have been times that you’ve almost felt you could lose yourself when nuzzling your cheeks against it.

Returning your thoughts to what Cadence just said, you ponder for a moment. “Is this thing taking place somewhere other than Canterlot?”

Cadence stretches her back a little, then turns her head your way. “It’s in a small town west of the White Tail Woods.”

“Hmmm.” You scratch your chin in thought for a moment, mentally recalling your Equestrian geography. “If I remember correctly, that’s not too far from here.”

Cadence nods. “It’s southwest of Ponyville, so like you said, it’s not too far.”

You continue your brushing, wondering if you should make a suggestion or not. Noting how distraught your princess seems from the prospect of being apart smack in the middle of one of your weekend days, you figure there’s nothing to lose.

“Well, what if I go with you? Do you think your aunts would mind? I don’t have to be back at the forge till Monday, and besides Pike said things are slowing down. So, how about it, my love?”

She places a hoof to her chin for a moment to ponder your idea. A big smile blossoms on her face as she looks back at you. “You know what, why not? I’ll check with my aunts later this evening or sometime early tomorrow. But, I don’t see why you couldn’t come along.”

“Splendid. And if all goes well, that will give us even more time together.”

“That sounds good to me. Ooh.” Cadence sighs as you continue brushing her mane. “That feels nice. I never would have guessed that I’d have a very special somepony that would enjoy doing this for me.”

A happy chuckle slips past your mouth as your cheeks blush in response to Cadence’s kind words. “Yes well, you know I enjoy doing this for you, and brushing you is incredibly relaxing. And once I’m done, I’ll be able to nuzzle those lovely locks of yours.”

Cadence can’t help but giggle. “You always find such thoughtful things to say.” She leans aback a little, staring at you with loving eyes. “It’s no wonder I fell in love with you.”

“I know, and it’s been a wonderful two-way street. In the short time we’ve been together, I can hardly imagine my life without you, Cadence.”

She closes her eyes and sighs. “Ahhh, I feel the same way. That’s why I’m glad we’re together.”

“Same here. And it looks like your mane is good to go.” You smile looking her mare over. “Yep.”

Cadence peers over into the mirror and lightly shakes her head, making her hair flutter. “Yes, it looks lovely, and thankfully the ends always curl back up once they’re dry.”

“They sure do. Now…” You run your fingers along her messy tail. “For your tail, my lady.”

She blushes and nods, happiness still beaming from her eyes. “All right, kind sir.” Cadence giggles, then she moves a little, lightly whipping her tail.

Setting the brush down, you lift her tail and straighten the end, leaving it flop along your leg. Picking up the brush, you secure a portion of her messy hair in your free hand and begin slowly working out the tangles along the end, making sure to be just as gentle as you were with her mane.

Cadence sighs softly as you gradually work your way up. “Yeah, that’s just as soothing.”

“Good, I’m glad,” you speak in almost a whisper, moving on to another section of her tail.

Cadence remains silent as you continue working the brush through her once lightly matted and tangled hair. Little by little, her tail regains its original beauty. As you brush, you start to hum a familiar tune.

Turning her head back, Cadence gasps quietly as you continue humming. Then, as you get lost in the rhythm of both your brushing and the song, you hear her start to hum with you, until finally she begins to sing, “Together forever and never to part, together forever we two. And don’t you know…”

You take over singing, “I would move Heaven and Earth, to be together forever with you.” Finishing the last strokes of her tail, you set the brush down and see Cadence looking back at you, her eyes glistening.

“I love that song.” She smiles, turning around to draw you into a loving hug.

You place your arms around her and rock her in your arms. “Me too. Even if it’s an older song from my world.”

She chuckles and grunts as she tightens her forelegs around you. “They call things “classic” for a reason.”

You run your hand along her freshly brushed mane and notice you are in the perfect position to nuzzle her cheek with your own. “You are so right, my love.”

She nuzzles you back. “Oh, honey, that was fun. But what made you think of that song right now?” Cadence pulls back, her eyes still a little glassy.

“Being here with you, and just feeling so at ease while I was brushing you.” You can’t help but feel a little misty-eyed yourself.

She sits there and stares at you, an unending expression of love on her face. You smile and run your fingers under her velvety chin. “I love you, Cadence.”

Cadence closes her eyes and whimpers faintly, then she responds, “I love you, too.” She speaks your name with reverence and hugs you again, nuzzling you amorously.

You happily reciprocate, loving every moment, until your both move apart. Then glancing back at her tail, you smile. “Your tail’s done.”

She grins as she glances back and flexes it a few times. “Oh, sweetheart. It looks so lovely.”

Running your hand along its smooth texture, you smile. “It always does.” Cadence just smiles, then you gingerly fluff the shorter side of her mane. “Hmm, this could use a little touching up.”

Cadence is still facing you and runs her hoof along your chest. “All right.” She closes her eyes and lightly sways her head quietly and resumes humming the same song.

Reclaiming the brush, you start working it along her hair. It only takes a few more strokes to finish this last bit of her mane. “Yeah. That should do it…argh.” You groan, shrugging your shoulders. “Ooh that smarts.”

Cadence opens her eyes, alerted from your painful grunts. “Oh, dear, what happened?”

You lightly grit your teeth. “It’s just some muscle cramps in my shoulders. I’ll be fine.”

The alicorn’s face fills with concern as she reaches toward you. “Are you sure? I could rub your shoulders if you want. I’d be more than happy to.”

You smile at her, running a hand along her freshly brushed hair. “Thank you, sweetheart. That’d be great. Ooh.” You grimace a little as your muscles continue to cramp.

Concern remains on her face, but her eyes still glisten with love as she smiles at you. “Good, I’m glad you’re not being stubborn.” Cadence giggles. “Like you sometimes do when you have sore muscles.”

“Well, there’s no point. Like most guys, I don’t want to seem weak, but I also know how much you care about me.” You manage a smile, “Besides, we did just express our love, didn’t we?”

She smiles. “Yes, we sure did.” Cadence moves behind you and positions herself with her legs to your left, near the center of the bed. She places her hooves on your shoulders and continues to smile. “Ready?”

“Yes.” You nod, knowing that this isn’t the first time she’s helped massage one of your cramping muscles. It’s just another thing you’ve come to love about Cadence. You discovered that she always paid close attention to the royal masseuses and often asked them questions about what they were doing for her or other members of the royal court at the castle spa.

Cadence lightly pushes her hooves into your aching shoulders, applying light pressure to start easing the tension you’ve built up. “How’s that feel so far?”

You grimace a little from the pain. “Hurts a little.”

She adjusts her hooves and their pressure, carefully working around the front and back of your shoulders. “And how about now?”

“Errr,” you grunt, then you notice the pain begin to lessen considerably. You sigh and nod. “Ahhh…That’s better. Must have been that stubborn metal I was working earlier this morning for those axe heads.”

Cadence giggles as she continues massaging your shoulders. “Is that so? I’ll also bet sharpening all of those swords didn’t help either. You certainly like to put your heart into your work.”

You nod as her hooves begin to banish even more of the fatigue from your muscles. “Of course, what’s the point of doing something if you’re only doing it half way?”

“I couldn’t agree more. I’ve known for a while now that it’s yet another thing that we share in common.” Cadence smiles adjusting the pressure she’s applying.

“Yeah.” You gaze happily at the reflection of you and her in the vanity mirror. “We both don’t hold back and like to pour our hearts into whatever we do. I’ve seen it too.” You lean back against Cadence and give her an amorous look. “Thank you, honey. I’m feeling a lot better. Mmm, yeah, the spasms are gone.” You flex your shoulders now that they stopped cramping.

Cadence runs her hoof through your hair. “I’m so glad I could help.”

“You did, just like you have in the past. Now, come here.” You turn and throw your arms around her, pulling her down beside you.

“Whoa.” Cadence gasps, letting out a slight yelp of surprise. Then, as she realizes she’s in your loving arms, her eyes partially close while she runs a hoof along your chest. “You must be feeling better. So, what’s your plan from here?” A seductive smile morphs onto her lips.

“Just this,” you reply in a hushed voice. Leaning in, you draw Cadence into a deeply loving kiss, letting out the softest loving moan for her, pulling her closer in your arms.

Your mare embraces you in her forelegs and holds you tightly as she presses her lips firmly yet tenderly to yours, moaning in a soothing tone that’s candy to your ears. You reach out your hand and run it through her long silky mane. Then, just as you contemplate deepening the kiss, you discover that Cadence has already opened the way allowing your tongues to tickle each other in a deeper extension of your growing affections.

The two you kiss a while longer, before your lips part, leaving you to stare lazily at each other. Cadence’s eyes partially close as she rubs her hoof along your chest again. “Another wonderful kiss, sweetheart.”

You nod, while looking at Cadence half-lidded. “It was heaven.”

Your arms loosen around her as you prepare to sit up, only you discover she isn’t going to let you go. “What’s your rush? It’s not that late.”

“I know, but didn’t we want to decide on where we’d like to have dinner?” You’re more than a little eager to get dinner out of the way, seeing as you’re looking forward to tonight.

“We can, but, would you mind if we started with dessert?” Cadence blushes deeply, a welcoming smile on her face.

You mirror her smile, reaching out to dance your fingers through her mane. “You don’t want to wait till tonight?” you ask, but are fairly certain what she’s about to say.

Cadence shakes her head. “No. After all the loving gestures, that shower, you brushing my hair…ohh and that brief but wonderful preview you gave me…” She moans softly and partially lolls her tongue at you. “I don’t think I can wait till later, and for that matter, I don't want to.” She kisses you deeply again and squeals happily in response to you wrapping your arms back around her.

You hold her tight and return her loving kiss, then smile at her as you pull back. “All right, it’s fine with me.” You notice that she’s still completely naked and all you have on is a mere pair of underwear. “So, this was your plan from the start?”

Her blush deepens. “Would you be mad at me if it was?”

Shaking your head, you whisper, “Of course not.” You lean over and nuzzle your cheek against her fluffy mane, sighing deeply as you run your hands along her furry pink back. “Hmm, Cadence”

“Ohh, good,” she whimpers as she speaks your name and rubs her hind leg along yours. “I want you so bad…oh, my darling.” She sighs, a faint but lustful moan in her voice.

Her words give you a rush of excitement and make your crotch tingle, causing you to give her a loving squeeze in response. “My sweet, Cadence.” You kiss her cheeks and then plant a long loving kiss on her lips, while your passion and desire for her continues to grow.

She giggles approvingly, then gives you a single kiss on the lips. “Tell me you want me?”

An endearing smile forms on your face as you stroke her mane. “I don’t just want you, my love…I need you.” You let out a grunting sigh knowing that it always puts her deeper into the mood. Then as you cuddle with her, you brush your lips softly along her ear. Cadence shivers in your arms as you whisper, “I’m yours.”

Cadence draws you into another lengthy kiss and runs her hooves all over your bare back. The two of you moan amorously, then you reach your hand down and start caressing her lovely leg. She lightly jerks her head, keeping her lips pressed firmly to yours.

You both gasp as the kiss ends and you lay there panting with her. Cadence strokes your cheek, then moves her hoof down and runs is along you chest. She blinks her eyes and smiles thoughtfully. “Roll on your back, my love.”

“All right.” You smile, turning onto your back and adjust your head along your pillow. You gasp softly as Cadence crawls on top of you. The velvety texture of her fur on your mostly bare skin is beyond amazing, and her added weight makes you sigh longingly. She rubs herself against you just a little and gazes deep into your eyes. Her hot breath falls along your face as you stare up at her lovingly and realize your own mouth is agape, while you vent your warm breath along her muzzle.

Cadence rubs her cheek against yours and sighs. “Hmm, what do you think?” She giggles through her closed lips, gazing at you with her bedroom eyes as she accompanies them with a very enticing smile.

You reach up and comb your fingers through her hair. “I love it.” Placing your arms around her shoulders, you pull her close, and bring her into another passionate kiss.

“Mmm, mmm.” Cadence moans sweetly with you, while she runs a hoof through your hair, before snaring you in her grip. The two of you savor the kiss before your lips part and she starts to nuzzle you.

You nuzzle her back, and feel more than elated while she lightly shifts and flexes her hips on you. “Uhh,” you shiver as your manhood sprouts to life along with your growing desire for her. Cadence is so close to you that her marehood is all but rubbing against you. “Mmm, Cadence.” You sigh, reaching down and placing your hands on the incredibly soft fur of her cutie marks.

Cadence sways her hips and looks at you seductively. “Mmm, yes…touch me.” She speaks your name and sighs deeply. “I want to feel those fingers of yours.” She giggles playfully. “You know where.”

“Mmm, of course, my sweet Cadence.” You massage her flanks, knowing this is where she likes you to start. Not that she minds your hands pretty much anywhere on her, but you know where she likes to be touched the most. The mere thought makes you chuckle, while you smile seductively and continue working your hands on her cutie marks.

You grunt as your manhood continues to push against your underwear, almost making you wish you hadn’t bothered to put any on.

“Everything okay, dear?” Cadence looks at you and notices the change in your expression, then rubs against you again. This time her warm crescent brushes against your newly formed tent. “Oh. I see.” She giggles playfully again. “This is why I wanted those left on.”

You nod, suspecting she wanted the pleasure of freeing your imprisoned member herself.

Cadence raises her rear a little, and as you look up at her, you see her horn light up with its pale blue glow. There is a firm but gentle tug along your underwear as she slides them down in the front, freeing your diving rod from its cramped holster. “Ahh,” you sigh feeling more relaxed.

She lowers herself back down. Her cheeks turn red and she smiles seductively as her marehood lightly brushes the tip of your manhood. “Mmm, that feels nice. I should have guessed you’d be…ready.” Cadence wiggles her rump, and turns a little, so she can reach her foreleg back. “There.” She smiles as her hoof makes contact with your spire and she starts caressing you.

“Ohh, Cadence, your touch…I love it.” You resume kneading her cutie marks, while she lightly sweeps her tail along the inner side of your legs.

“I knew you would.” Cadence begins stroking your smooth underside, adding to your desire.

You moan quietly. “That’s wonderful. Oh, what am I thinking? Here, darling…” you sigh, moving your hand under her flexing tail to Cadence’s waiting crescent. She shivers and sighs as you place your fingers on her folds. You run them along her slit, and stop to tenderly rub her protruding nub.

Her body trembles from your loving ministrations. “Uhh, those fingers of yours…mmm, so good.” Cadence twitches and lets out a calming sigh followed by a lustful moan as you give her clit a gentle squeeze. Sweeping your fingers along her crease, you notice them quickly coat with her dampness. Smiling at her, you slip your index and middle fingers into her marehood. She softly moans your name and nuzzles your cheek, filling you with a calming serenity. You moan faintly as her hoof continues caressing your flesh.

“Cadence….” You can barely say her name as your fingers slide a little deeper inside her. “Oh wow, Cadence you’re really…”

“Wet…I know.” She looks at you and blushes deeply. “I’m a bad mare.”

You run the fingers of your free hand back and forth along her cheek. “Why would you say that? You’re a wonderful mare.”

She blinks at you, before taking a deep breath through her nose. “But I wouldn’t even wait till after dinner for…”

You cut her off, placing a finger over her lips. “Hey, it’s all right. I told you it was. And you don’t need to feel bad for being horny.”

Cadence nods and smiles at you. “I know, darling, but I want to make love to you, I don’t just want you to rut me.”

Your free hand moves to stroke her silky locks, while you stare deep into her eyes, as far as you possibly can, before you notice her eyes looking right back at you, nearly unnerving you in the process. “I’ll never just rut you, my love. I can’t quite explain it, but with you, it always feels like so much more than something physical.”

She cocks her head and her expression softens even more, adding to her smile. “I’m so glad you understand. Ever since we feel in love, sex has become deeper. It makes me feel closer to you every time we’re together now. And I just want to savor that feeling as long as possible.”

Overcome with passion, you place your hand on the back of her head and lean front to kiss her, before returning your gaze to meet her eyes. “Of course I understand. In the past with others…it never felt like it does with you. Cadence…my love, I’m happy to make that feeling last as long as possible too.” You resume stroking her mane and start to massage her longing walls.

“Mmm,” Cadence moans, and speaks your name in a loving whisper. She looks back, and resumes running her hoof along your manhood. As she moves it up further, it brushes against your tip. “Hey, is that a damp spot on you?”

You chuckle as you continue flexing your fingers inside her. “Well, you aren’t the only one that’s wet.”

Cadence rubs her nose to yours, giggling at your sheepish expression. “So, it’s not just me.”

You shake your head. “Nope. And while you may not want me to rut you…you know things can get a little rough from time to time.”

Her blush deepens. “I know, sweetheart. And that’s perfectly fine. I like it a little rough now and then.” Cadence kisses you again, then partially closes her eyes. “Mmm, are you ready to move on?”

“You bet I am.” You nod, while playing with a lock of her hair.

Cadence rests her hooves on your shoulders and smiles as you wrap your arms around her waist. “Ahh.” She sighs as her wings unfold and stand up proudly. She rubs her body against yours a few times, and her marehood teasingly sweeps across your manhood, making your loins burn with even more desire.

You reach down and steady your staff, before positioning it against her folds. Cadence moans contently as you rub the head of your member along her wet slit. “That feels nice, but stop teasing…” She sighs deeply. “I want you inside…please.”

You caress her cheek. “Anything, my love…” You push against her flower, parting her delicate petals as you ease yourself into her. Cadence flexes her hips, bringing you deeper into her hungry marehood.

“Ohh, sweetheart.” Cadence moans and rolls her tongue over her lips. Then she squeezes her wet walls around your solid rod.

You move your arms to embrace her as a flood of bliss and affection surges through you. Your alicorn locks you into another kiss, a very deep one as she starts to buck her hips on you. The pleasure grows as she adds just a little speed to her movement. “Cadence…mmm,” you mumble through your locked lips, just before the kiss ends. You push up as her hips fall on you, adding to her pleasure as well as your own. Her walls give you another firm but loving squeeze as you move your hands to her cutie marks.

Gradually, the two of you work into a blissful rhythm. Cadence adds a little more speed as you secure your grip on her flanks, allowing you to help guide her motions and share the loving burden.

Cadence tilts her head back, and casts out a series of heavenly sighs and passionate moans, while her hair flutters and dances at her side. You know she wants to make this last, but just as you feel pressure building in your loins, you can feel her body tremble more and more as you both draw closer to the brink of ecstasy.

Countless minutes whisk past and Cadence begins to gasp and pant. You keep your hands firmly on her cutie marks as she starts to moan more frequently. Her back arches slightly and she whimpers. “With me…p-please…” she squeaks and sighs as her body trembles. Cadence finally lets out a long heavenly moan and cries your name.

At the loving sound of your name, you grip her flanks tightly as the last of your restraint crumbles to dust. You grunt softly and let out series of moans as you lead up to one long pleasurable one, moaning along side Cadence as you burst several times within her, filling her with your love. She casts out a shuddered moan and spurts her own warmth against you, driving you wild as your blissful union ravages both of you.

Your mind grows a little hazy as you throw your arms around Cadence, holding her tightly while her hooves pull on your shoulders. She lies there on top of you, as you pant heavily together attempting to regain your breath. Her wings fall around you like a feathery blanket. As you near the point of overload, Cadence joins you as the two of you nuzzle your cheeks and remain nearly lost in a perfect moment of pleasure and emotion.

Gradually, your breathing calms, while the two of you continue to lie there, lightly trembling. You’re still thrilled having Cadence on top of you. Her weight doesn’t hinder your breathing in the least, and leaves you overjoyed to have her so close in your arms.

Your eyes meet and you both smile. “Cadence.” You sigh. “That was incredible.”

She kisses your lips. “It was. Oh, so heavenly…and you did it. We made it last quite nicely.”

You run your fingers through her soft hair. “I’m glad. I was hoping things didn’t go too fast…ohh.” Your words collapse as Cadence gives your mast a loving squeeze.

Cadence giggles. “Yay! I caught you in time.”

A calming moan leaves your mouth as her marehood gives your divining rod a few more hugs, before letting it go.

“Ahh…the perfect ending to something so beautiful.” You smile, caressing her blushing cheek. “Like the sight of you laying on top of me. Love and happiness…you’re positively glowing with them.”

Her blush deepens and she sighs, moving to rest her head on your chest. “You just love to make me blush, don’t you?”

“You’re so beautiful when you do.” You continue to trail your fingers through her mane, while she nuzzles your chest.

Cadence lifts her head briefly, looking at you again, and then she eases her head back onto you. “Looks like I’m not the only one glowing.” She chuckles softly and places a hoof on your shoulder. “Oh, there it is. Mmm, your beating heart.” Cadence giggles. “Seems you’re calming down, but it’s still there, beating strong.”

You move your arms to embrace her again. “As corny as this may sound, every beat is for you.”

She whimpers and sighs contently. “Corny…never. I love it when you’re like this. Having a very special somepony like you, makes me happier than ever to be the Princess of Love.”

Securing your arms around her, you pull Cadence close, brining her head to rest on your shoulder. Now, that her chest is resting so close to yours, you smile brightly. “Cadence…”

“Yes?”

“I can feel your heart beating, my love. And I pray it never stops.” You cradle her close. “I love you…so much.” And while your eyes had been dry, the emotion of the moment gets to you and tears quickly crowd your eyes, spilling down your cheeks as you nuzzle her.

The sound of soft sobs fill your ears, your incredibly thoughtful words have moved Cadence to tears. She nuzzles you back, choking back a couple happy sobs as a few of her warm tears drip onto your chest. Cadence shakily speaks your name and wraps her forelegs around you. Then she lifts her head and moves so she can look you in the eye again. Her lips plow tenderly into yours. You savor her kiss for a few minutes, almost wishing it could last forever, before your lips part. Cadence’s eyes are still a little glassy as she clears her throat. “And I love you, just as much, my dearest one.” She sniffs again.

You take a portion of her mane and run your thumb along its silky texture. “I’m sorry, Cadence. I’m not sure what came over me.” You sniffle.

Cadence shakes her head, choking on another sob, then she smiles. “It’s love, silly. And it’s nothing to be sorry about.”

“You’re right. I’m just not used to having someone I can truly be myself around.”

Cadence rolls off of you, then she coaxes you to face her as she nestles beside you. “Well, you do. Now, why don’t we cuddle?”

Placing your arms back around her, you nod happily. “I’d love to.”

Cadence rubs her nose against yours, then starts to nuzzle her cheek to your cheek, while your fingers resume their dance through her beautiful coiffure. She places her hooves along your chest and kneads them against you. “Now, this is perfect. I love, love, love it…”

Caressing her cheek, you smile at Cadence. “And I love, love, love you, Mi Amore Cadenza.”

She smiles and giggles briefly, before kissing you again. “I love, love, love you, my very special somepony.”

You hold her close as the two of you continue nuzzling and cuddling close. Then, feeling at peace, you notice a wave of drowsiness pass over you. “Mmm, this is really nice.” You let out a yawn. “Oh, I kind of feel sleepy.”

Cadence sighs and squeaks out a lengthy yawn. “Wow, so am I. But, we should go eat dinner now.”

Adjusting your arms around her, you nod faintly, your body is totally relaxed at this point. “You’re right. Maybe we should go have dinner at the castle…or something.”

“Yeah, or we could just stay here and take a little nap…well maybe j-just rest our eyes…eyes for a l-little…” her words trail off as she nuzzles you again.

“Mmm, t-that would work. Y-yeah, just a quick p-power nap.” Then, before either of you can debate the matter any further, your eyes join hers in falling shut.

“No, no,” Cadence mumbles half asleep. “We gotta get uhh…” She attempts to get up, but barely even manages to twitch a wing.

Your raise your arm in a vain attempt to sit up. “I’m…right behind…yeah…” Your arm falls back down and like Cadence, you didn’t make it up either.

She nestles closer to you, her hooves resting against your chest, while you adjust your arms and keep them enfolded around her as the two of you drift off into a peaceful slumber, never happier that the two of you are together and finally have some time you can share.

Author's Note

I've been going through some sad and troubling times since the end of last year. Cadence has been a really big help to me, especially since I moved back home in April. As my fondness for her grew, I started looking for human x Cadence stories, but I have only found a few that are any good. Most of them don't flatter her very well, and in just about all of them Cadence becomes a rather vulgar slut in the bedroom. I wanted to find something more sweet and loving, a story where Cadence makes a connection with her human companion. Not to mention one that doesn't have her cheating on Shining Armor. I have nothing against their canon relationship, but as a writer of Human x Pony love stories, I just wanted something that shows Cadence in a positive light with a human companion and makes the reader feel good. That's why I wrote this and I hope I hit the mark with it. I put a lot of love and care into this.

If you enjoyed reading this and want more of Cadence and her human (you), then all you need to is let me know, post a comment, give a thumb up and favorite it. I know I'd enjoy doing more one shots about Cadence.

Oh and lastly, for those of you that were wondering about the song you and Cadence were humming/singing, here's the link: Rick Astley - "Together Forever"
