Casual Swimming

Previous Chapter

High winds and Spike made it to the edge of the lake and slowly began wading in, Spike got about waist deep before stopping and crouching down to about his elbow and just kind of looked out at the expanse of water before him.

"Well this is dull," He managed to say before hearing a splash and turning to Find High wind had taken to the air and flown to the deeper parts of the lake, he watched her cannonball in and emerge.

"Come on Spike we have wings, lets have some fun in the deep end," Spike smiled at that and took to the sky, flying above before speeding down into his own cannonball and splashing High winds with a wave that almost made it to the shore. "There we go," She laughed as she floated on her back and extended her wings, using them to paddle along the surface of the lake, Spike swan next to her like a shark and emerged with a small splash.

"Alright that was a little fun," He admitted as he tried to copy her and instantly sank, she looked at him and watched him reemerge spitting out water "if only Dragons didn't sink so easily," High winds watched as Spike did his best to float only to end up sinking back down, she held back her laughter as he gave up and just waded in the water, using his wings to keep above water, resulting in a trail of ripples flowing behind him.

"Interesting strategy," she noted as Spike proceeded to use flap his wings behind his.

"Before I had wings I could float on my back," He muttered "But this is the first time I've done this with them," High Winds chuckled at the comment.

"You said you liked swimming,"

"I've had these wings a few months," Spike retorted "Haven't even had 'em a full year yet, and I've only recently been given the luxury of massive amounts of free time, the closest thing I've had to a swim is a giant bathtub with an even bigger Sphinx," High winds smiled at that.

'A Giant bathtub? man Castles are weird,"

"Think that's weird?" Spike asked "Sphinx is planing to build us our own atop the mountain while Chrysalis builds a new Changling hive into it, seeing as you'll probably end up living with us Sphinx will probably add a large section made of clouds for your area of sleep,"

"Well if she does I'll have to make sure she used the right kind," High winds replied, Spike listened as High winds began going into detail about the difference between rain clouds and building clouds. Spike's expresion gave away fairly quickly that he didn't understand any of what she was saying to him and she stopped mid sentence.

"Could you say that again, only in stupid so that I might understand it,"

"That was in stupid," High winds replied with a laugh as she went from floaring on her back to swimming up right. "Tell you what, next date you and I can go to Cloudsdale and you can learn about the diffrent kinds of clouds and their uses,"

"I am all kinds of down for that," Spike replied with a grin.

"So,' High winds said as she and Spike moved into shore before sitting in the shallow area of the lake "How has our first date been so far for you?"

"This has been nice," Spike decided as he took a seat next to her, "Just me and you, relaxin, no talk of marriage or sex or orgy's,"

"Yeah, I guess I'm just one of thoese mare's that like to sting things out, making it more meaningful," High winds shrugged "But hey, Sphinx and who ever else is in on this have every wright to do things the way they want to do things," High Winds patted Spike on the back. "Swiming kind of sucks,"

"Oh thank Celestia," Spike cried out "It'd rather lay on a hill and look at clouds, at least then I woudld't be soaking wet," The duo retrueated from the water and Spike's swim suit turned into the outfit Sphinx had given him after their first time together. High Winds put her clothes back on and shook her wet hands.

"Welp im gonna be wet for the rest of the day,"

"Avoiding the obvious sexual joke I could make out of that, would you like to head back to the castle?" I beat Sphinx is egarly waiting to see where to schedual you into out wedding orgy.

"Look, given enough time I'm sure I can get comfiratable with you and your other gals seeing me in the nude, but I ain't getting it one with random Colts and-"

"I'll actualy be the only male attending," Spike corrected "Sphinxes magic automaticaly banishes any male that attempts to get nude near her by a fairly large amount of space, and I don't like the idea of sharing my wifes, as hipocritical as that may be, I stand by it seeing as I don't wanna have to raise some rando's child,"

"Alright, but still I'm not into mindless sex so I'm gonna have to pass on your...weding orgy,"

"You are more than welcome to tell Sphinx that," Spike replied as they both extened their wings and took flight "Now me, I'm denying I ever hear the phrase, not into mindless sex, and pretending I don't understand it as I don't wish to see Sphinx have a stroke,"

"Ha, ha," High winds shot back, Spike gave no reply and she looked over to him "She...she won't though right?"

"Dunno, that's your risk to take not mine,"

"Your a chicken," High winds laughed.

"I ain't no chicken I'm a Horn-dog, ask anyone they'll back me up on that,"

"It's true," Sphinx said as she appeared above them, Spike did the fly aquivilate of jumping, other wise known as nearly crashing.

"Oh man how have I not gotten use to that?" He asked with a groan.

"I just came to pick you up from your date," She said looking over to High Winds "And I'll be removing you from the Large Orgy, but I hope you'll at least join for the small sex party with the rest of Spike soon to be wife's, It won't be the same without you, seeing as your now one of us,"

"Well I'd rather get to know them first,"

"Then why not join us for Dinner?" Sphinx asked as she shrunk in size and landed on Spike's back in her Chibbi form "Come and get to know the gang,"

"Well," High Winds repied scratching her chin "I can't think of a reason why not to, but your face tells me your gonna try and talk me into sex or something,"

"Oh don't worry," Sphinx said "Your just the next to last Mare to join our party, And I just got word that our final is coming down sooner that expected, so if you need to wait, that's all find and dandy, if there's one thing I can't stand it's someone being uncomfortable during a sexual undertaking of any kind, for example Spike hates the idea of other males being with his women and wouldn't be all that into it if he was participating in activited with another male involved, so I have baned any other males from being near us,"

"He mentioned that," High winds said, She looked at Sphinx, then to Spike and sighed "Guess I'm going to dinner,"
