Anon's Problem

The Silence….
It was….
Awkward!

The kind of awkward that comes with a first date minus the small talk. They were just sitting in Twilight's study at a crystal table. Food was in front of them that Anon was just kind of picking at. He tugged at the side of his collar as he cleared his throat looking at her.

She had dolled herself up for this. She was wearing a bit of makeup, she had a flower in her hair. All he had done was taken a shower and put on the same suit he worked in. He couldn't tell if she was trying her hardest to seduce him by looking nice or if she was just trying to look her best for this.

Hell, there was even a lit candle in the middle of the table. Which didn't make much sense given it was midday right now. He guessed she was trying to sell the mood but, he was just put off by it all. This had led to the current conflict in his mind. He felt bad that she went through all of this for him but, at the same time…should he keep this going? He just didn't feel this way about ponies….or maybe it was just he didn't think they felt this way about him. He was still of the mindset that all of this was because of his damn scent.

Looking at Twilight her eyes had turned soft staring at him in awe. Just a ball of joy fluttering her eyelashes at him cutely. He just sighed at the look. Keeping this up was wrong no matter how he split it in his head.

"Listen Twilight I think we should…" Saying this as he sat up from the table.

Her expression turned to worry slamming her hooves on the table. "NO! Please?" Giving him the puppy dog eyes. He sat back down looking confused.

She closed her eyes and let out a few calming breaths. "I know you may not feel the same but, you have done so much for me…and my friends. You helped us through so much, ever since you got here. Your scent didn't affect me much at first but, over time…." She paused looking away as that blush appeared on her face again.

"It started to get worse. I think…it only really affects ponies who gain feelings for you." Saying this as she stood from her seat walking over to him. He was frozen unsure of what to do or even say at this point. He didn't like this that was for sure. He didn't want to crush her feelings but, at the same time. Could he even get over his hang ups and have feelings for a pony?

All that was silenced by her leaning her front hooves against his chest pushing her face upwards towards him. "Just one kiss….just one and then tell me how you feel?" Asking this as she closed her eyes and pushed her lips together.

"FUCCCCCKKKKKKK!" Was the only word that was repeating in his head as she leaned closer to him.

Before he could even utter something to possibly get him out of this. Their lips made contact. He had not kissed anyone in a while. At first, he didn't push back but, her lips were soft. It….felt kind of nice. His old instincts kicked in making his hand rub through the fur on her cheek. A warm feeling in his chest was beginning to swell up.

That warming feeling was quickly dashed by another warm feeling of her tongue invading his mouth. She coiled around his tongue. He tasted her for the first time then. This caused panic and his mind came back to him. He pulled out of the kiss with a pop.

"TWILIGHT. Remember this is just a DATE. TWILIGHT!" Shouting this at her to no avail as he saw her expression.

Her pupils were basically in the shape of hearts and she was panting slightly. He could see a small bit of sweat on her brow and her heart was going a mile a minute. In this moment Anon did something all great men had done before him when faced with a difficult decision regarding a woman…..

He decided to flee. "LOOK OVER THERE STAR SWIRL IS GIVING OUT SIGNED COPIES OF HIS NEW BOOK." Shouting this as he pointed his finger to the right.

This outrageous statement caused her eyes to become normal for a moment looking away from him going. "What?"

As she said this he would dash towards the exit of the room which there was only one. As he heard her body hit the floor with a thud. Thank Celestia for all of Rainbow dash's fitness training and helping Applejack on her farm. It had given him some endurance when it came to physical things. When he got to the door he would kick it open and keep dashing down the long hallway towards the front door.

"WAIT ANON!" He heard Twilight calling out as he heard her hooves pumping behind him.

As he ran he spotted someone he knew. A certain mare who had tried to ruin this world with some time magic. Starlight Glimmer, Twilight's current apprentice. She stopped in her tracks in the hallway waving at Anon not knowing what was going on.

"Umm Hi Anon I was jus…." She was cut off by Anon suddenly stopping beside her.

He wrapped his arms around her legs and picked her up into his chest. "HERE TAKE HER SHE WILL PROBABLY LIKE IT MORE." He shouted in his panic yeeting poor Starlight behind him like a football. He didn't watch what happened as he went back to running after throwing her. All he heard was two yelps and a crashing sound as he kicked open the front door.

After making it outside, he just kept running. Staying on the street was a bad idea so he just looked around. Spotting a building that looked oddly familiar he just dashed inside because the door was slightly open. He closed the door behind him and peered out the window looking out to the street spotting both Twilight and Starlight running past the building he was in.

A sigh of relief came from his lips. He was going to lay low here for a few seconds and then figure something out. His mind was racing. Why did he do that? He felt horrible but…he panicked. She put her tongue down his throat! It wasn’t that bad but, still, it wasn't something she should have done.

What was he going to do now? Maybe Applejack could talk to her for him and maybe he could lay low at her farm. Applejack had been one of the few girls who was at least respectful about his wishes even though she had feelings for him. All of these thoughts were suddenly dashed by a loud THUD.

A sharp pain came from the back of his skull as the room began to spin as he started to fall to the ground. "No Celestia I don't want your frozen peas. I take my coffee black…" Muttering out the madness of his now shaken brain as he rolled over on the floor his vision becoming blurry.

Only seeing the floating frying pan above him and the faint glow of a horn as he faded out of consciousness
