Chapter 4
While she was watching a few more episodes, I kept on drawing her in the state of beauty that she was in. She looked great from every angle that I have seen her; she’s fit but not overly fit. There was one thing I still couldn’t get over though, and that was that she still didn’t have her cutie mark. (And before you got assuming, no I was not looking at her ass or looking over her entire body, I SWEAR I WASN’T!) I was getting ready to ask about it but she looked happy watching the show, and I didn’t know whether it was a touchy subject or not so I decided to leave it alone and get back to drawing.
After about four straight hours of watching the show I was starting to get a little hungry as it was around time for dinner. “Scootaloo are you hungry?” I asked her sitting down my sketch pad. Then as if to answer for her, her stomach growled like a freaking lion. She looked over with a hit of red on her cheeks and smiled. “I’ll take that as a yes.” I said, laughing afterwards. There was plenty of stuff in the house to make but I was in no mood to make anything, but I did anyways. While she was still up in my room watching the show I made us some salads, but before I went back up I made myself a quick ham sandwich and destroyed it in about ten seconds flat. (LOL, had to use it, DON’T judge me.)
After I had my quick serving of meat I went back up stairs with our salads, I had also brought up many different dressings incase she liked any of them. I sat the bowl in front of her on my bed and set all the dressings next to it. I already had ranch on mine and was getting comfortable in my chair once more. After awhile she also put ranch on hers and went back to watching the show and eating, I mentally chuckled at seeing this because it was rather funny. While I ate I looked over to where I had sat my sketch pad and stared at the drawing, it only had a few minor details missing but I had to admit it was easily the best drawing I had ever done. It only need a little more work and it would be done.
I had finally finished the drawing and Scootaloo was passed out on my bed. “Well she hardly spoke a word today other then when I got up but that’s fine as long as she is happy I’m cool.” I whispered standing up out of my chair. I looked over at my closet, “Well I guess now would be the best time to do it since she is out cold, at least it is a good way to make me forget about all this dam stress in school.” I said now walking over to the closet. I opened it up and dug around in the back a bit till I found the bag I was looking for.
It was a old leather book bag that I had gotten a long time ago. I pulled it out and went out of the room and headed down stairs, once I made it to the bottom I head out back and towards the hot tub. It was time to unwind and relax from these past couple of days. I hoped in the hot tub going full commando, it was my time to relax the bag was right next to where I was sitting. I reached up and grabbed the remote for the hot tub and a button so the TV would come out and turn on. As soon as it came on I switched it to My Little Pony and sunk into the tub a bit.
I reached up and grabbed the bag and brought it over to me and opened it. I pulled out a glass bong and the bowl for it. “Damn, this is cleaner then I remember it being.” I said surprised at how clean it was. I sat it down and grabbed my Zippo lighter and sat it next to it, next came the reason I had these. I pulled out a half gallon sized black jar that was half full. I opened it up and took a deep whiff of it, “Smells even better than last time.” I sighed. I got out my herd grinder and put a couple of buds in and ground it up real quick, next I packed my bowl and got it ready to go. Then I reached in my bag and pulled out a small bottle of liquid I bought online, it was to make it taste different not that there was anything wrong with the taste of it, I just wanted to add a little something extra to it this time. It was a grape flavored addend to give it the taste a bit.
After I had everything ready I realized I forgot something, “Forgot the ice again.”I sighed. I was going commando but I knew that Scootaloo was asleep for now, so I saw no real danger it getting any with no clothes on. So I got out of the tub and went inside and straight to the kitchen. I grabbed a cup and filled it with ice, I also decided to grab the gallon of chocolate milk and bring it with me. Once I got back outside I got right back in the tub. I filled the bong with ice and put the bowl in. I lit it up and took a small hit to see how it was going to hit today, and as I thought it was going to be hitting like a heavy weight boxer tonight. My next hit was huge, like to the point I thought my lungs were going to pop if I took in any more air. I held the breath for awhile then let it out without barely a trace of smoke.
I rolled around to doing my last hit for the night and I wanted it to be a good one. I lit it up and breathed in a little to fill the camber up real good, and my god did it look good. It looked like I had filled the entire thing with milk. “Ah, a good milky one to end the night.” I said as I let out the air in my lungs to make room for the milky smoke that was about to fill them. I took the hit and sat the bong down on the side I held it for awhile, and then I decided to go underwater to let it out. I went under and let it out as planed and stay there for a bit, when I came back up something felt off.
I then realized what felt off, ‘why am I doing this, I mean I know why I used to do it but now where is the point in even doing it anymore? I have had my dreams come true the other day when Scootaloo came here. I should be freaking ecstatic because she is here yet I am sitting here getting high off my ass. You know what I’m done I’m not going to do it anymore for her, I know she doesn’t even know what it is but still even sitting here now make me feel nothing but guilt.’ I lectured myself. I got out of the tub, I through my pants on and went in the house and grabbed a large pot and took it outside.
I threw every bit of my tree in there and everything that would burn that I wanted to get rid of, in the end the only things that didn’t go in it were the lighter and the bong. Ii went over to the grill and grabbed a bit of lighter fluid and dumped half the bottle in the pot and lit it. As it burned I took the bong over to the trash can and smashed in inside of it, I kept the lighter because every now and then it would help me with a drawing. After waiting awhile the fire went out and I cleaned everything up and dumped the ashes in the garbage as well, then I went into the living room and lied down on the couch and drifted off to sleep.
I woke up to someone or should I say somepony prodding me in the ribs, “I’m up, what do you want?” I asked groggily while I pulled my pillow over my head. “I want you to get up some we can do some more fun things today.” She announced happily. “What time is it?” I asked fearing the worst. “It’s ten.” She answered happily. I just sighed and groaned sitting up since I had missed another day of school. “You know what screw it I will just go to school Saturday since that is the makeup day for exams. So what did you have in mind to do today?” I asked feeling better about forgetting school.
“Well I now this could have happened sooner but I have a few questions for you and I’m pretty sure you have a few for me.” She stated staring at me. “Well, ok I guess you are right but before we do this I have got to go to the bathroom since I drank a freaking gallon of chocolate milk last night.” I said standing up and rushing upstairs to the bathroom. Once I relived myself I opened the door to leave but when I opened it there stood Scootaloo. “Umm… hey Scootaloo what are you up to?” I asked a little weirded out why she was standing there. “Is this the bathroom because I really have to go, and I wouldn’t mind also taking a bath if that is alright with you?” she asked her face turning a little red at the last part.
“Yeah this is the bathroom and of course you can take a bath, though I might have to show you how this tub works.” I said stepping out to let her in. “na I should be able to work the tub as long as it is like the ones back in Equestria.” She said as she closed the door. I stood there next to the door and waited because I knew she was going to need help. “Nick! I think I am going to need your help.” She sort of yelled. I knew she would everything in this house is just about the newest technology that came out. My mom loved the new things that would come out and she would soon have them for herself to try. “is it alright if I come in?” I asked after knocking on the door. “Yeah come on in.” she said responding.
I went in and saw the cutest puzzled look on her face, I felt my heart melt and the D’awww inside of me tried to force its way out but I held strong to not let it escape. “I tried to tell you but you wouldn’t listen.” I said with a bit of a chuckle. “Shut up.” She said in a flat deadpanned tone. “how hot do you like your water?” I asked looking over the setting on the tub. “I like it pretty hot but not to the point where it hurts.” She explained. “Ok, you like it the way I like it, and you wanted a bath not a shower right.” I asked playing with more of the settings on the tub “Yep.” She replied.
“Ok everything is all set, now all you have to do is get in and you can use any soap or shampoo you want, cause there are plenty to choose from.” I said turning around to leave. “Umm, N-Nick would you mind staying in here with me? You don’t have to if you don’t want to.” She said looking at the ground. I stopped dead and thought about what she just asked me to do but only one question popped in my head, “Why?” I asked plainly. “I don’t like being alone.” She said. It almost sounded like she was choking on her words. “Ok, I will stay I will just sit up here on the counter.”
I hopped up on the counter swung my feet around and put my back against the wall, then I closed my eyes till she got in. I could hear her getting in and it took every will of my being not to look, but my heart told me not to do it so I listened. (OH you are such a pussy why didn’t you sneak a quick peak.) ‘Because I have control over my being and that is why you are called a subconscious.’ (Oh damn you are good…touché.) After I heard the curtain close I opened my eyes and just stared at the wall, I didn’t want to admit it but this was kind of weird. While I was sitting there something hit me to ask her. “Why didn’t you tell me that you didn’t like being alone I would have slept on the floor in the room so you wouldn’t have to worry about anything.” I said. At first all I heard was water sloshing around a bit. “I never had the chance to tell you because I would always fall asleep before you, then when I would wake up I found that you weren’t in the room and I started to panic because I didn’t know where you were.” She said with a hint of sadness in her voice. “Well you don’t have to worry about that anymore I will stay in the room with you at night.” I sighed quietly because now I knew I could make her feel better.
I sat there on the counter while she was still bathing, and we talked for what seemed like hours but there weren’t many question because we decided to save those for later. “Umm, Nick… ah never mind.” She said unsure. “What is it Scootaloo?” I asked. Then there was a pause and it was deathly quiet. “I can’t wash my back since I don’t have what we use in Equestria to wash our backs, so I was wondering if you could help me?” she said nervously. I sat there frozen unable to move or think, it felt like I was in fight or flight mode, and I was leaning toward flight. “Nick are you there?” she said knocking me out of my thoughts. “Yeah, I’m here.” I answered. Then it was if time slowed down to let me think a bit about this.
‘One I don’t want it to be awkward which would mean I would say no. Two I can’t just leave her there in a time of need, I guess I will do it. (That’s right, do it so you can rub all over her!) ‘Shut the hell up, you might be like that but I am not.’ (Well, you have that about half right, but you and I are the same person, I just want what I want and I will keep on wanting it till I get it.) ‘Well to bad I’m in control here so go back to the safe in my head and lock yourself in it.’
“Ok Scootaloo I will help you.” I said with a hint of defeat. “Nick you don’t have to if you don’t wa…” she was cut off by me. “No you are in a time of need and I am going to help you.” I said reassuring her. “Ok, thank you.” She said with a somewhat cheerful tone. I hopped off the counter and walked over to the bathtub. As I got close she pulled the curtain back and I about dropped to the ground from a Hhnnnnggg attack. If you saw what I saw you would have to, not that I saw anything bad it was just the way she looked with her mane slicked down from the water, let’s just say it took her beauty to a whole new level.
