Chapters "Sweet Celestia!" Harshwhinny said as she made her way through the door, holding it open so Spike could run through it with the luggage.
"Sweet Celestia is right!" Spike replied as he set the soaking suit cases down next to the door that belonged to him, the two where both drench in water, the bright flashes of lighting shown through the window's and the loud echoing thunder boomed outside, the 3rd Crystal Empire Equestrian Games has officially ended 5 hours ago, but a snow storm had delayed their train and by the time they had arrived in Canterlot the Storm had already begun. "At least you nightmare is over," Spike said as he made his way into her living room to deposit her luggage, he set everything down on the brickwork next to her fireplace and moved to her window as Harshwhinny rung out her skirt as best she could before following him into the room. "I live on the other side of the city, I'm probably gonna have to build a boat to get me and my stuff home," Unbeknownst to Spike Harshwhinnies ears shot up at that and a smile light her face for a brief moment before she cleared her throat.
"Nonsense," She said firmly, Spike looked back at her "Spike you've worked for me for almost 3 years, your by far the best assistant I've ever had, not to mention the only one who's ever understood what no Ice means,"
"I still don't believe that," He replied with a laugh.
"It's true, 14 assistants in a quarter of the years, always packed my drinks full of ice the first few weeks no matter what I said," She smiled at the memory of Spike handing her an no ice Ice-coffee for the first time before shaking her head, "That said there's no way in Tartarus I am letting you face that storm, I insist you stay for Dinner," Spike rubbed the back of his neck and looked at the wailing storm before looking back at her kind smile, a rarity for any of her staff save him, he's learned how to get a smile out of her over the years, his co-workers revered him for the achievement.
"Just for Dinner?" She practically begged. Spike sighed as he thought it over, the windy wet storm, or the not so windy or wet home of his boss,"
"Just for Dinner," he agreed. Harshwhinny gave him a wide smile and pulled him into a hug, he went a little red faced as the wet embrace before she pulled away.
"Make yourself cozy, I'll go get it started," Spike made his way to the fireplace and, with little effort, set it ablaze before laying on the brick and resting his feet in the flames. Harshwhinny spied on him just long enough to see this before she moved to the kitchen.
"Alright," She thought to herself as she made her way through the kitchen, lighting a Lantern as she did so for some light, "This is it, 2 and a half years of planning and faking yourself out and he's here, it's not really a date but it's dam well better than nothing," Harshwhinny opened her refrigerator and looked through it's contents for something both delicious and time consuming to make, her lack of consistent company had left her stock of food low and not that impressive. "Something, anything," She muttered to herself, silently praying to Celestia for just that. The best she got from it was enough leafy greens and veggies to make a salad, she moved to the Freeze and almost sung a song of relief when she looked inside and found a fresh package of Frozen Carrot Dogs. She pulled them out and moved to her pantry, it was full to the brim and after a moment she pulled out a box of Mac and Cheese that had been sitting there for over a year.
"Guess I did need it after all," She said as she got to work making the meal, it wasn't the best but it might have been a little off putting to Spike if she invited him to her house unknowingly and just produced a 5 star meal, especial since he usually did her shopping for her when she had a full day booked for meeting," It took a about 20 minutes to properly make the Mac, Carrot, and Cheese with a salad as a side but once it was done and the table set she looked out to check on Spike and found he hadn't moved even slightly, she might have assumes he was sleeping if she hadn't known better.
"Soups on?" He asked, giving her a start at having been caught.
"Mac,Carrot, and Cheese with a salad on the side, Water to drink" She said this in her usual business tone, as tho she was trying to sell him on the concept of having it for dinner.
"Told you you'd need it eventually," Spike said with a sly smile.
"Yes you did," She replied as she made her way back to her kitchen and Dinning area, Spike pulled his feet from the warm flames and blew on them for a minute before walking into the Kitchen, without a word he made his way to her sink, reached into the counter under it for a new bottle of soap, and washed his hands before joining her at the table. Spike picked up the fork, Harshwhinny did the same, they both tapped the table once and dug in, after a few moments of eating in silence Spike was the first to break it.
"Did you see Soarin when he was given the bronze medal?" he asked with a chuckle.
"Did I see it? I had the press take a picture of it, he looked so..." Harshwhinny struggled for the words and Spike chimed in.
"...much like a stallion who had bet a years worth of chores if he beat her?" Spike finished, the two fell into laughter as the thought back to the look on his face as he looked up at Rainbow Dashes shit eating grin, the two died down and continued with the meal.
"I suppose Rainbow Dash was who you where hoping would win?" Harshwhinny asked before taking a chug from her drink.
"I have 50 bits that can confirm that as true," Spike replied "I'm sure you like her two, after all it was her who sent me and Pinkie flying through your office window," Harshwhinny smiled as she thought back to him and Pinkie flying through her office building and landing in front of her desk, glued together covered in streamers and frosting and grinning at her guiltily as the Cyan Pegasus flew into the room and rapidly backed out before she exploded with rage at them.
"Worst day I ever had," She replied with a smile "I almost lost it when I found out you where going to start working as my assistant to help pay for the damages, I quickly changed my tune in less than an hour,"
"I am a pretty great assistant," Spike said as he finished the last of his food, "Well I appreciate the Dinner and the temporary shelter from the storm but I really hate to be a bother."
"Ask him something!" Harshwhinny mentally screamed at herself as he got up and swigged the last of the water "Your gonna be alone forever if he leaves, just ask him to stay, do something, anything!" Harshwhinny sat in silence as Spike put his dished in the sink when a grace was sent to her from heaven, Spike let out a sneeze and Harshwhinny seize the opportunity.
"Oh Spike are you alright?"
"Just a little waterlogged," Spike replied with an awkward smile.
"Oh I know you want to go home but I'd feel just awful if my assistant caught a cold from walking about in a storm, why don't you spend the night?"
"Don't be silly," Spike replied politely "I'd hate to be a bother,"
"Well, you'll bring me an awful lot of bother if you go walking about in this storm." Harshwhinny replied as she picked up her plate and dumped what was left of her food into the trash before putting her plate in the sink and patting Spike's shoulder "You getting sick would trash my schedule."
"But you always take the week after the games off," Spike replied in confusion.
"You never know when some drama queen's gonna make trouble," Harshwhinny replied as she put her arm around Spike's neck and lead him back into the living room "Besides if you get sick and I need you at work I'll be stuck with a replacement, and having to deal with an idiot this close to the end of the games will drive me crazy. Come on, just for the night?" She looked Spike in the eye and gave him a pleading look.
"Oh alright, put the puppy eyes away." Spike chuckled, "Just for the night, I'm sure the rain will cool down enough for me to get home by morning," Harshwhinny gave him a smile and patted his back.
"Good, now that that's settled why don't you go grab your bags?" Spike ran off to do just that as Harshwhinny picked up hers and made her way to the stairs, "The guest room's upstairs," She called before dragging her luggage upstairs. She made her way into her room and left her luggage next to the door before rushing to her desk. There were stacks of paper on it, she ignored them and grabbed the parchment that had been waiting to be delivered since the Hearts and Hooves day of the year before last. It had randomly jumped around from hiding in her desk at work, to home, to Spike's desk, before being frantically retrieved and stuffed back into her's. She was going to give it to him after he lit the fire at the games, but had lost her nerve before even leaving her own room and had tossed it on her desk.
"Which room am I staying in?" Spike asked from the hall.
"The one with a small wooden sign on the door," Harshwhinny called back as she stuffed the letter in her desk, Spike looked at the four rooms, one of which was open. The open door belonged to Harshwhinny as she had been in a rush to get the letter out of any possible sight. One he figured was her bathroom, the other was her at home office. He spotted the small wooden sign on the door next to Harshwhinny's and made his way to it. The sign simply read, "Enjoy your stay."
"I'll try," Spike commented to the door before opening it. He looked inside it and shook his head, "This room is half the size of my entire apartment," he shook his head before walking in, "I need to upgrade."
When Spike had made himself at home, Harsh walked into the hall and took a deep breath before knocking. "Come on in," Harsh walked in to find Spike had placed his two bags on the dresser and was digging through one. She waited for him to find his prize and once he did, found it was a bag of chips. "Soggy chip?" Spike offered as he opened the bag, the bag was a little wet but the chips themselves had survived the rain, Spike leaned the opening towards her so she could grab some.
"Maybe one or two," Harshwhinny decided as she took a handful.
"Your definition of one or two is much different from mine," Spike said as he put his hand into the bag and began munching. "So," Spike motioned around the room with the bag, "Since when do you have guests over?"
"Actually, it's usually for my mother," Harshwhinny said as she looked around the somewhat dusty room "But she doesn't come for visits nowadays, she got herself a midlife crisis and...well let's just say I hopped off that ship before it even started sailing," there was a moment of silence before she changed the subject "So how's your family?"
"Well Twilight decided I was to be the new Celestia in the sense that I get a letter from her and the girls at least one a week telling me about their friendship lessons. I'll be seeing them at the end of next month, I've been invited to Smolder and Ocellus' wedding."
Harshwhinny smiled at that. "Oh? You know I hear it's customary to bring a date with you to a wedding,"
Spike turned red for a second before laughing. "Oh ha ha, laugh at the dragon." Spike said as he rolled up the bag and stuffed it back in his bag "Well since I'm spending the night I would like permission to take a bath before you embarrass me with more facts." Harshwhinny moved out of the way and pointed to the door across the hall, Spike grabbed his pj's, a bottle of scale-polish from his bag, and went on his way.
Harshwhinny waited until he had close the door to smile. "Yes," She whispered "I've planted doubt. If he's in a rush to get a date for that wedding, he'll certainly agree to take me. When he does I'll request a practice date for...some reason I'll think up later. Then on that date I slip him the note and the emotions of the moment will overwhelm him." Harshwhinny laughed before shutting herself up "Alright gotta buy some time, gotta keep Spike up and about," Harshwhinny rushed out of the guest room and into her home office, "I have to have something, anything to keep him busy when he gets out." She had a mess of work laying around the office, after a moment she found something that was bound to keep him up long enough for her to get a shower and make her plan, "It's perfect," She decided. She scurried around for a moment and pulled out a sticky note, she wrote a quick note to Spike, placed it on a large binder before picking it up and making her way back to the guest room, dropping it on the dresser so that he'd see it when he entered into the room. "This should buy me some time," She muttered before making her way back to her room to begin working on her plan.
Author's Note
Random Smolder and Ocellus shipping just thrown in cause I think they'd be cute together.
Spike let out a sigh of relief as the hot water of the tub ran over him. The storm had left his freezing and he would be lying if he said he wasn't silently thanking Celestia when that sneeze had happened. It had taken all of his self control not to jump at Harshwhinny's offer. As soon as she had asked him to stay for dinner he'd known something was up with her, he was just thankful it was his health that she was worrying over. As the water began filling in the tub, Spike sprayed some of the scale polish in his hands and rubbed his hands together before spreading it on himself. He moved his tail and gave it a good once over before putting it under the running water and moving to his feet and legs, by the time the water had filled the tub he was done, he turned the running water off and sighed as she sunk as much of his body into the water as he could.
"This isn't as good as the fire, but it's way better than walking through a storm," He said happily as he let the heat of the water soak into his scales. He let out a long sigh of relief that slowly changed to one of despair, "She is so gonna use this as an excuse to get me to work on something. I don't know what but I know she's gonna do it." Spike sighed as he splashed the water from the tub into his face, he stayed in the tub for 10 minutes or so before getting out. He dried himself off with a little fire before putting his PJ's on. "Let's get this over with," he sighed as he picked up his wet clothes and made his way out of the bathroom towards his room. When he entered the binder stuck out like a sore thumb.
"I knew it," he sighed as he stuffed his wet clothes back into his bag without much thought and picked up the sticky note. It simply read, You know what to do. "Indeed I do," He muttered dejectedly. He opened the front and looked at the first page "I've always wanted to help plan a party, and the Gala's a hell of a party to plan." Spike picked up the binder and began looking through lists of information ranging from ponies to be invited, to those providing services. Spike quickly noticed they were the same list, save a total of 6 names.
As Spike set to work trying to figure out what he was supposed to know to do, Miss Harshwhinny was putting her plan into play. In her closet she had multiples of the exact same suit, purple over shirt and skirt, white under shirt, and multiple chokers. At the moment she sat at her desk with one of her white undershirts and tried to work some magic. All of her shirts came up to her neck, but the one on her desk no longer did, she looked at it in silence. It would take no time to put it on and walk into Spike's room. Just having it on would give Spike more than enough signals that she wanted him to take notice of her. However, the longer she sat there, the more unwilling she was to put it on.
"What if he's not interested?" She thought as she ran the fabric between her fingers, "What if he is interested?" The possibilities of what could happen either scared her, she'd never really been into the dating scene. Instead she'd been too busy trying to make her mark on the world to even consider having a companion to share her achievements with; Spike had changed that in no time. She'd never really felt she could rely on her underlings, but having one who not only listened to her, but who knew her so well that he predicted her actions sometimes before she even thought of doing them. He'd called out the Empire as the host of the games half a second after she had decided on it. Regardless of whether or not he was into it, going into the room with this on would change their dynamic permanently. There would be no going back after she did. She had no idea how long she'd been staring at the shirt, a few minutes, a few hours? She took a deep breath and got to her hooves.
"I'll probably never get him to stay another night with me, if I don't do this now, I never will," she unbuttoned her over shirt and tossed it in her dirty clothes basket. She took another deep breath and took her undershirt off. She clasped her hands onto her bra and looked herself in the mirror for a moment. "No going back," She declared before un-clipping it and letting it drop to the floor. She stood with her rather large breasts bouncing free for a moment before turning to the shirt on her desk. She picked it up and put it on then judged it in the mirror. The end of her shirt was no longer at her neck, it was now at the center of her chest, her cleavage stuck out like a sore thumb. She smiled at herself before it caught her attention that her nipples clearly poked through the fabric. She grabbed one of her purple over shirts and buttoned it up far enough so the cleavage would still draw his eye. It did hide her hard nipples as she wasn't ready to show off that much of herself. She took a relaxed breath and turned to her desk, opened its top drawer, and pulled out the personal note. Harshwhinny looked at it in silence as she read it, it was far from the most romantic thing in the world.
"Spike, I'm attracted to you in a romantic way. Please accept my invitation for a date. - Harshwhinny," she read it and laughed at herself at how simple it was. She rummaged in the lower drawers of her desk and pulled out a clipboard. She put the note on it then grabbed a handful of notes on what the Princess wanted to see at the Gala this year. She placed them over the note and walked out into the hall. She finally made her way to Spike's door and stood in front of it,
"It'll be fine," She thought as she held the clipboard tightly with both hands "Don't panic, just let it happen," She exhaled through her nose and called through the door.
"Spike may I come in?"
I'd love to accept you invitation
Spike had just managed to figure out what he was supposed to be doing when he heard Harshwhinny asking if she could come in.
"Come in ma'am," He replied, he didn't look up as she came in then the door closed. There was a long moment of silence and Spike blinked, the look on his face giving away to Harshwhinny that he knew something was wrong already. "Your not about to fire me are you?" he asked as he glanced up. As soon as he saw her his face turned bright red. "Oh!" was all he could think to say as he took in the sight she was presenting to him. She stood in silence, her cheeks glowing as she held a clipboard to her stomach, she didn't say anything as Spike looked at her in silence. "For the first time in 2 years I have no idea what you are doing," Spike finally blurted out as he looked her over. "But I feel like I should,"
"It's...just a new...style?" Harshwhinny fumbled for words with a confused smile, "I should have came up with a plan, of course he doesn't see this as flirting, he's Spike."
Spike tried to pull himself together. "New style?" he repeated back to her, his disbelief very obvious. "You're trying out a new style?" he gave her a once over and nodded, "I got it," He closed the binder and got to his feet "You have a crush on...somepony in the office," Harshwhinny blinked in surprise at how he'd both gotten and missed the point at the same time, "And you wanted to test it on me to see if the...um....exposed look works?" She wasn't sure when she noticed it, but by the time he had finished the sentence she realized there was an awkward strain in Spike's voice. She also noticed his eyes were focused not on her eyes, but a little above them. The final clue was the fact that he was sweating a little, something she'd only seen him do when Ms. Rarity had surprised him with a visit. Her moment of fear that she was pushing him away instantly turned to a realization that Spike was doing his absolute best not to stare at what she was showing, she smiled.
"He's into it," She mentally squealed "He's attracted to me!" She cut the smile and replied "Yes, that's what I'm doing..."
"Then you'll be happy to know that it's working, but you'll be less than happy to know that it's probably gonna work on everypony so I suggest against it as you'll end up with unwanted attention, primarily on your walk to and from work," Harshwhinny smiled and set her clipboard on the dresser before putting her hand on Spike's cheek, a small amount of steam came from Spike's nostrils as Harshwhinny pulled her hand back and flicked the sweat off.
"I can see it's working on you," She teased with a smile, the fact that it was working filled her with joy. But as the moment moved on she came to the realization she hadn't made a plan for if Spike had gotten the gist but failed to realize it was fully for him, her joy turned to terror at the fact that she had nothing, she took a step back. "Well I...I'll um...keep your words in mind, maybe change before leaving work or um...Yeah," She gave Spike an extremely awkward smile as she began backing up "So did you start working on the..um..binder?" Spike gladly took this excuse to turn away from her and to the bed.
"Yes, I've begun making a list of all the caterers so you can test them and pick the best on to serve at the gala," Spike said as he turned back to her. His face turned a darker shade of red as he looked her in the eyes. He quickly looked away as she backed out of the room.
"Yes, Good… Great, keep up the amazing work Spike," She gave a wave and Spike waved back with an awkward smile.
Soon as she closed the door he lost it and fell to his knees. "Oh shit," He muttered and he thanked Celestia that she missed the bulge in his pants. "She's always been hot but I've never imagined I'd get even a peak of that," Spike lay on the floor as he tried to calm himself down. "I was so unprepared for that," as Spike freaked out silently on the floor Harshwhinny was sitting in front of the door with her hands on her face.
"Of course this had to happen," She muttered "The worst possible outcome, now I know he's attracted to me...and I still have to do something about it!" She got up and rubbed her temple.
Inside the room, Spike got up and performed a breathing exercise Twilight had taught him. He stood in place for a moment until something caught his eye. "Oh no she left me a clipboard with more papers," He groaned as he picked it up. "Why is she so good at handing me work without me realizing...wait what?" Spike looked at the paper at the front of the clipboard, it was an old form from over a month ago, Harshwhinny had made like 12 copies of it and had lost several in her home, Spike looked at the page behind and found the 2nd part of an old memo. "What the hell?" Spike flipped through the pages trying to figure out what she wanted from him until he was left staring at the last page in silence. He read it over and froze as he started sweating. "I'm a fucking idiot," He realized. He ran to the door and slammed it open, making Harshwhinny jump. She had just been about to close her door.
"Spike," She gasped in surprise "is something wrong?"
"I..it...um...you..." Spike took a deep breath and walked to her before handing her the clipboard, the look on her face telling him that she'd forgotten that she'd brought it in with her. "I read the letter in the back!" He practically shouted. There was a heavy silence as Harshwhinny went bright red.
She looked him dead in the eye and he looked her back, sweating slightly. "And?" She shakily questioned.
"I'd love to accept your invitation," Spike replied. He flinched as Harshwhinny dropped her clipboard.
"You would?" her voice was a mixture of amazement and sounding like she was about to cry, "You actually would?"
Spike gave an awkward smile. "It's funny actually," He said as he started sweating, "My letter was a mess," Harshwhinny went wide eyes as Spike spat out a line of green fire and a piece of paper formed, he caught it and handed it to her, the paper was very clearly from their workplace and simply read.
"Mrs.Harshwhinny I would like to... would you like to join me… I know that employees dating is unprofessional but...." Harshwhinny looked in silence at the paper, it was fully covered in Spike's failed attempts to write her a love letter. The last line was the only one not crossed out and simply read, "How's the weather?" She looked up at him in silence.
"I was gonna give it to you last Hearts and Hooves day but...it kind of turned into a mess," Spike pointed his finger in silence. Harshwhinny dropped the letter and pulled him into a hug. Spike blinked as she snuggled into his neck and unwittingly pressed her bust into him.
"You can't begin to imagine how much this means to me," She said. The knowledge that even before she'd cut up her shirt to show off her goods, that he'd been interested was the best gift she could have had. She took a deep breath. "Now I do believe I offered you a date,"
"Well it's raining sideways outside so..."
"Give me an hour," She replied simply "Just relax in your room, forget about the binder. I was just using that to distract you while I came up with a plan."
"Oh...ok?" Spike said as she began pushing him back to the room.
"I'll come get you when it's ready," She said before closing the door.
Spike stood in silence then smiled. "She's so commanding," he said as he picked up the binder and put it on the dresser, "I've always loved that about her." With that, Spike sat on the bed and waited, knowing very well that she already had something planned out.
Means more to me than any thing else
Spike yawned as he looked threw the semi-ruined Power ponies comic he had removed from his bag, the corners where all messed up but it was still readable, Spike had read it to death during the train to the games, back from the games, and in the room, he was about half way threw when Harshwhinny knocked and made him jump a little.
"You can come out now," Spike got up and met her at the door, Harshwhinny was the most excited he'd seen her in a while and he suddenly felt bad.
"I'm still in my PJ's aren't I?" he ask self consciously as he pulled at the collar of his shirt, "I have nothing even remotely fancy in either of my bags," Spike groaned and face palmed himself, Harshwhinny took hold of the arm and pulled it away from his face, bringing the hand to hers and grasping it, Spike looked her in the eyes and she smiled at him.
"I think you look lovely," She said sweetly, the unusual tone of voice make Spike shiver a little
"Your just saying that to make me feel better," Spike replied with a chuckle "And it's completely worked,"
"I can be just as sweet as I can be harsh," She said as she lead him out of the room and towards the stairs, "I'm just naturally a little bitter is all,"
"I don't know I bet you taste pretty sweet too me." Spike quipped earning him a warning glare. " What you set yourself up for that." With a sigh Harshwhinny relented.
"Fair enough but do try and keep that humor down to a minimum I don't want that in in front of company or in public." She then gave her famous no talk balk glare. "Am I clear." With a audible gulp Spike gave two thumbs up.
"Crystal."
"Good," Harshwhinny said in her normal business like tone "because we actually do have company" Spike blinked.
"Who would be crazy enough to come to your house in the middle of a storm like this?" Spike's question was answered immediately.
"Simple, they just have to be smart enough to fly above it," Spike looked over to the familiar voice and Found the culprit.
"Rainbow," He cheered as Rainbow Dash waved as him, She walked over to him and gave him a mighty pat on the pack, which he returned.
"You didn't think you'd avoid me forever did ya?" She asked with a smile.
"I was gonna say hi at the games, but it was surprisingly hard to find you," Rainbow shrugged.
"Eh, Fan club was acting crazy, had to go undercover when I wasn't on the field," She looked over at Harshwhinny and gave an evil grin, "So Spike did you finally ask her out, or did she finally ask you out," The two looked at her for a moment and she laughed "Pinkie made me Pinkie promise not to tell either of you about the other's crush, said it'd spoil the fun," Rainbow shrugged and Spike sighed.
"I suppose I can understand that," he said with a shrug.
"Well I would have liked a heads up," Harshwhinny said Irritably as she made her way to the kitchen.
"What do you see in her?" Rainbow asked in confusion.
"What can I say?" Spike asked with a shrug "She's so serious and hard to make happy, each smile from her just makes me all tingly," Rainbow sighed.
"well I've delivered on my side of the deal," She headed to the door "Tell Harshwhinny we even," the two waved goodbye and Rainbow headed into the storm, Spike waved until the door shut and turned to where Harshwhinny had gone, he saw a light in the kitchen and made his way there, he found Harshwhinny had set up the table once more, this time with a special Dinner, A Pizza lay on the table, on half was plan cheese, the other half had sapphires in it.
"My Favorite!" Spike cheered as soon as he set his eyes on it. Harshwhinny smiled as she took her seat.
"It's a little cold, but luckily Rainbow shielded it from most of the rain." Harshwhinny pulled a chair next to her and patted it, Spike took the invitation and looked at her with a smile to match hers.
"You know what the most amazing part of this is?" He asked.
"What?"
"I've seen you smile for tonight that I have the entire time I've known you," Spike chuckled as her cheeks turned red. "You have to most alluring smile, It's an even better treat than this pizza, and this pizza is one heck of treat!" Harshwhinny looked away from him for a moment.
"Come on now Spike, your making me blush,"
"Oh well I can stop if you..." She turned on the spot and looked him square in the eye.
"Oh absolutely not, you know how rare it is that I get a compliment,"
"I've seen tons of ponies compliment you," Spike replied as he took a slice, Harshwhinny doing the same.
"Oh yeah, they do everything in their power to try and butter me up so I'll pick their town as host of the games, or so I'll pick them over the others caterers, or so I'll select them as team captain for Canterlot's winter wrap up," She sighed as she took a bite, she looked over at Spike, who had gotten the gist of what she was saying, she swallowed her bite and finished "Your the only one who ever compliments me purely so you can make me smile," Spike swallowed his bite and replied simply.
"I know I'm milking this to death, but making you happy is the best part of my day, even if I usually only get a smile out of you every few weeks, that smile means more to me than anything else," Harshwhinny sighed as she set her piece down and looked him in the eye with a serious face, "To sappy?" he asked as he made to get another slice, Harshwhinny suddenly threw her arms around his neck and made him face her, his face matched her's in redness as she pulled him so close her snout was almost touching hers.
"I can think of something that'll mean more to you," She said softly before pushing forward, her lips pressed into his and he went bright red, he was lost for a moment before following her lead, he put her hands behind her neck and pushed back, his tongue licked at her lips and her's happily met his in the middle, his longer tongue wrapped around hers and snaked it's way into her mouth, a moan escaped from Harshwhinny as he explored the inside of her mouth, after a moment they pulled apart, Spikes tongue lingered and she sucked on it for a moment before it came out with a small pop. a thin trail of saliva branched between them, the looked at each other for a long silent moment.
"Put the Pizza in the fridge," She said calmly, Spike closed the box and put it in on the bottom shelf, Harshwhinny held up her hands in her chair and Spike picked her up, she put her hands around his neck and whispered in his ear.
"Take me to my room, I've just thought of a few more things that'll mean a hell of a lot more than a smile,"
Author's Note
my only regret is I'm just not good enough to get this story featured.
Spike moved as fast as he dared to as he made his way out of the kitchen, threw the living room, and up the stairs to her room, he shut the door with his tail and made his way to Harshwhinnies bed, gently laying her down on it. Harshwhinny smiled and Spike smiled back.
"I've never seen you smile so much in one night," Spike said as she pulled him into a sitting position.
"Oh trust me Spike, after this your gonna be seeing me smile a lot every night," She kissed his cheek before moving her hands to the buttons on her over shirt, "Now what do you say?"
"Please," Spike said without hesitation as he watched her hands like he was in a trance, Harshwhinny undid the top button and Spike watched as her hands slowly undid the three remaining one's, her undershirt leaving little to the imagination, not that it stopped Spike's from running wild as she tugged at her collar, he watched in silence as he hands ran down her bosom, across her stomach and rested at the top of her skirt, without a word she moved on of her hands to Spike's chin and made him look her in the eye as she leaned forward, there lips locked as Spike's tongue once again began exploring Harshwhinnies mouth.
As they did this Harshwhinny got onto her knees and with a small click undid the top button of her skirt, letting it fall to her knees as she pushed Spike down to the bed and into a laying position, once Spike was fully on his back she slid them off and rested comfortably on top of his lap, something pushing into her from below made her glow red as Spike's rod begged for attention, She ignored it for a moment as she broke their kiss and put her hands on her shirt and began tugging at the bottom. Without a word she pulled up and slowly saw more and more skin until at last her girls bounced free for him to see, she put her arms underneath them and propped them up. Spike lay in silence for a moment.
"Oh wow," Was the best he could come up with as she moved her arms to his shoulders.
"Come on Spike," She whispered with a smile "Don't just play along with me, improvise your own act," raised his arms and tore his shirt off, years of constantly running around had kept him in good shape, Harshwhinny ran her hands across his stomach as his went to her shoulders and pulled her closer, Spike kissed her neck, then moved a little lower and kissed again, and repeated, Harshwhinny gave a sound of approval as she put her hands behind his back and let him go lower until.
"Oh," She moaned out as he planted a kiss on her right breast, he stopped going lower and decided to stay a while, as Spike began suckling, Harshwhinny grabbed at the hem of his pants, she didn't accomplish much, his his tail sent to work and with a little help from her legs his pants where tossed to the floor. With a slight pop Spike moved to her left, his hand now working on her right, Harshwhinny ended up on her back and Spike pulled back, she gave a small squeak as he pulled back, and looked down at her, he put his hands on her hips and gave her stomach a long lick before slowly moving down, she began panting as Spike grew closer to her waist line.
"Do it," she demanded, Spike smiled at her boss like tone and did as she asked, he lifted the hem of her panties and let his tongue slip threw, she squealed as he licked around her entrance, teasing her just a moment before his tongue plunged into her mare hood, she made a series of noises as she grabbed the side of the bed, her hips bucking out, with little effort Spike pulled the panties down and off her, tossing them off the bed before fulling digging in, She gripped the beg hard as his tongue pulled out to it's tip, then plunged back in. He did this four times before she stopped him.
"You need to stop," She managed to Say. she noticed the look on Spike's face and added "It's my turn to do you," Before Spike could say a thing she pulled away from him, he sucked his tongue up just in time for her to grab him, after a moment Spike ended up laying on his back as Harshwhinny simply took his boxers off, She looked at his Dragonhood for a moment, it was long, hard, and ready for her to play with. Harshwhinny gave it a test lick, Spike gave a moan in return and she smiled before giving it another lick, after a few more licks she tested her luck she planted a kiss on the end and took the head in, licking the underside as she gave it a suck, Spike mimicked her earlier actions and put his hands on the bed as she took more of him in, He began breathing heavily as she took almost all of him in before pulling back to the tip she popped it out and gave the end a lick before going back, Spike held onto the bed as she did this first slowly, then picked up the speed, Spike stopped her after a minute.
"I think it's your turn to stop," He said as he tried to prevent himself from exploding, Harshwhinny stopped in place and pulled back, sliding her tongue along the bottom of his shaft as she pulled away, she gave it one final kiss before pulling away and pulling herself up and putting her arms around Spike, who did the same.
"So...were doing this," Spike said as he looked her in the eye,
"We are doing this," Harshwhinny agreed as she readied herself "Are you ready?"
"Ready as I'll ever be," Spike replied as he moved his hands to her back, his Dragonhood waiting at her entrance, slowly he pushed it in, Harshwhinny began squeezing him as she felt him push against her inner walls, after a moment they sat in silence before Spike pulled out and pushed back in, first it went slowly, then Harshwhinny joined in, pull in as he pulled and pushing as he pushed, after a moment they found a rhythm and worked with it, Spike however quickly got out paced by Harshwhinnies enthusiasm as she went to town, She nuzzled her face into his neck and pulled him close, Spike best response was to hold onto her back as she went faster and faster before he finally gave in and exploded, his seed filled her and she began slowing down as he own eruption came, the two breathed heavily, Spike held her as she lay on top of him. Spike rolled over and lay her on her back, removing himself from her and letting their combined juices spill out, After a moment Harshwhinny rolled over to him and kissed his cheek.
"Love you," She whispered.
"Love you to," Spike replied, they lay in silence for a moment when she added.
"I've love you more if you carried me to the shower,"
"It would be an honor,"
