All I wanted was a steak, how did I end up with 4 lovers.

In that night's dreams, He was still the spell sword he enjoyed paying as in adventure games. But every magic endowed punch or levitation spell feat much more real. Almost as if he was casting it. And as he awoke his room looked bit messier then he had remembered it the night before. But he had little time to ponder it as he hastened to get to work.

In the three days since Princess Celestia had portaled into and out of his life. Things were just starting to fall back into there mundane pattern. Go to work, go home, eat dinner to his favorite shows. Which in this case was an M.M.A. fight. Pantomiming every punch that was thrown.

T.v announcer “Caolin unleashes a furious combo alternating punches. Mcgregor ducks under the right cross and retaliates with a sidekick to Caolin’s ribs. Spacing the two men out. Mcgregor lunges for the knee and gets caught with a stiff right hook.”

It was then that the T.V. shook and the side of the cabinet cracked form Worththrup’s blow. A blow that came from over 6 feet away. Startled and with his arm tingling from the magical discharge he fell backward onto the couch. “ What happened, did I just? “ standing back up he thru sever more punches toward the easy chair. But nothing happens. “Was I just dreaming about it? “ A glance at the cracked wood stand said otherwise.” Thinking on why it wasn't working. He remembered a line from a movie about Merlin “ If you think it's easy to bend the laws of both god and nature, think again. It takes every thought in your tiny little mind focused with steadfast resolve on that one simple act. In order to bend the very will of all creation to your whim. “ refocusing he trayed over and over to no avail. Finally realizing he didn't want to damage his one furnisher. So he took out his pocket knife and jammed the handle between the cushions. “ If you don't knock out that mugger right now he is going to cut you to pieces.” Trying to psyche himself up before punching again. This time the cushions made the slightest pop. “Harder! “ he yelled as each time he struck was rewarded with the squeak of the char’s legs dragging across the floor . Until one mighty blow, finally knocked it onto its back. His chest heaved and his arms ache from the strain. As he fell onto the floor in an exhausted heap.
“Well one thing's for sure magic can give you a powerful headache.” grabbing his head.

He quit his job and focused on training his now fond talent for manipulating the air around him. Working his way up to form lifting kitchen knives. To small stones then eventually an 80-pound bag of concrete. Which promptly tore open creating a quite a large cloud of dust. Coughing profusely “I need to work on my control.” Feeling his skin tighten and dry out he headed straight to the shower.

About a week later in the same clearing as before the trees around him shook as he went through his combat mantra “lifting uppercut, Double side punch, Grand hurricane trust. Ahhaa!”

His left arm painfully glowed with a pink hue just before a portal reopened behind him. And a rather perturbed looking Princess stepped out. O that King Rooloff can take his flack back to yackastan and freeze to death for all I care. The nerve smashing my antique tifpony table set.” Finally taking a look around.” Hang on this isn't sweetgrass meadow.”

Ya sorry about that it seems a bit of your portal was left behind. And I absorbed its magic. “

She spotted the dimming glow on his arm. “ My how interesting. Let's see about that. She trotted over and took his hand in hoof “This should fix it.” and quickly began pulling the magic back into her. “There we are, problem solved. “

“Ua thank you?” for a moment he wondered if he still had magic within him. So he tried picking a blade of grass, and it floated it up to his hand much to his relief.

“But now I have to figure out where I am going to eat.” Celestia said “I can fix you a plate rather quickly. Do you like spicy hot foods or mild?“ Worththrup offered.

“Spice is what I travel dimensions for.”

He hurriedly ran back to his house and began microwaving a bach of beef burritos. While they were cooking, he shredded some pepper jack cheese. And added it and some salsa to the top of the plate. Before rushing back.

“For the lady Burritos Queso”

“Thank you it looks delicious.” partaking of a corner the spices and cheese contrasted well. At least until she swallowed and her mouth began to tingle with the heat. “My Its like eating a bit of the sun.” before she could go in for another bite it had died down to a slight sweetness. “How very interesting.”

“Thank you for the component.” Worththrup
She devowed the plate savoring the flames ebb and flow form every bite.

“I am cereus how did you make such high-quality food so fast?”

Honestly, it's little more than store-bought premade food. All I had to do was reheat it. But I promise to have something better for you next time.”

“What do you mean premade? How long are we talking exactly?”

Somewhere in the range of about a month or so. When you factor in shipping and the like.

She was inwardly stunned that they could keep food fresh so long without the use of magic. Then there was that other part, “Next time, aren't we being a bit presumptuous? Expecting that there would be a next time without even asking.”

“Of course how rude of me. Would you like to come back again sometime and try a freshly prepared meal?”

“Why thank you for the invention. How about 7 suns form now.” Thinking to herself he had taken the bait.

You have lured her in, so I better make good on this. He thought. “ A week from now it is then.”

“I hate to eat and run but the affairs of state wait for no one sadly including me. “ as she began to reopen the portal.

Just as she was stepping in Worththrup yelled: “ I look forward to our date!”

Staggered she fell thru the portal head first onto the marble tile of her living chambers. As the portal closed neatly behind her. “ A date I haven't been on one of those in a thousand moons or more.”

From the doorway came “ Princess are you alright in there? We heard a bang.”

“Everything's just fine I just tripped. Go back to your post.” she switched to a much softer tone “ Whatever shall I wear.” her smile at this thought was positively radiant.
