Kicking back on a cloud of love
Beautiful, purple pegasus
It is a calm, cool evening in Ponyville park. The sky was clear on a full moon, and the air was pleasant and breezy. Perfect weather for a quick stroll through the park on your way into town for dinner.
Ever since moving here, you were a little worried about how the ponies would percive you, but thankfully, both leaders on Earth and Equestria were able to talk things over and ensure a lasting peace between humans and Equines.
Since then, Equestria had seen a surge of human imigration from Earth, families setting up small houses in and just outside of Ponyville, while city folk preferred to move into bustling towns like Canterlot, Manehattan, and Appleloosa. In order to accommodate the new citizens, the ponies modified certain aspects of their infrastructure and culinary systems to try and fit humans better: Bigger chairs, beds and tables, taller doorways, and menu items at restaurants that served meat and other human foods.
Then there was the somewhat-controversial (at least on the humans side) of pony-human relationships. At the time, you weren't surs how to feel about it, but you still lent a hand whenever an inter-species couple was under harrassment or bullying. One time, you didn't even need to help out when a man was getting ridiculed for dating a pony. His Rainbow-maned partner put them in their place with threats of beating them up if they layed a hand on him and sticking angry glares at them.
After a few months, you were able to afford to move out of your tiny New york apartment and into a comfortable 2 story house just outside of town, not too far away from Sweet apple acres and a small cottage on the edge of a dark, dangerous forest.
It was a regular thing to have the ponies who work at the farm to bring you free apples on weekends, and stay and talk with you, or the butter-yellow pegasus living in the cottage to bring you fresh bread and eggs.
You weren't gonna lie. The pegasus was exceptionally beautiful.
Now that you were living here, you figured it was only a matter of time before you found somepony to love.
As you saw the cozy glow of lights on the horizon, you noticed a small violet blur up in the sky heading towards you. Recognizing it as a pegasus, you quickly realized it was your friend Cloudkicker.
You two first met after she saw you playing a game of baseball by yourself, tossing the ball up in the air and hitting it with the bat.
After asking about the game and explaing the rules, she offered to play with you, promising to not use her wings when running for the base spots.
A day later, she invited Rainbow Dash and her human boyfriend to play together, and you made 2 more friends.
After one game, the man asked if you were thinking of finding someone, and you replied that you had an idea, motioning to Cloud.
Indeed, she had been on your mind for a while. Not only was she admittedly real cute to look at, but had the personality to match: an energetic tough-girl attitude like Rainbow Dash, yet a kind, friendliness and tendency to get nervous and blush an adorable pink when embarrassed, like when you tripped during your ball game and fell on top of her, a hand against her belly.
Cloudkicker landed in front of you with a friendly, cute smile and greeted you with a hello.
"Hi! That was some ball game the other day! I cant believe you managed to outrun both me and Dash! So, what are you up to tonight?"
You smile. "I was going for a walk through the park and was planning on going into town for dinner. Would you like to join me, cloud?"
She made a slight blush on her cheeks and timidly said yes to it. So The two of you proceeded to continue walking into town, enjoying the warm atmosphere of the lanterns and street lamps.
She would occasionally look up at you and smile, that adorable friendly smile warming your heart.
The restaurant you two arrived at wasn't too fancy, but the important thing is they were able to accompany human needs. After being led to your slightly taller table, a human sized chair was given to you two, with Cloudkicker sitting across from you on a similarly sized chair.
She ordered a couple hayburgers with a side of oats, with you ordering hamburgers with fries. Beverages were apple cider for her and a Coke for you.
As you two ate, Cloudkicker spoke up.
"You know, I dont know how you humans can stomach meat. The sheer sight of it when the waiter bought it out for the other customers to see had them all staring". She said with a cute giggle.
"Well to be fair, we didn't warm up to the idea of pony-human relationships for a few months, and still haven't to some extent".
Both your meals are finished, and you wait for the check. At one point, you had to use the bathroom, but as you got up, you accidentally bumped a human waiter, spilling water all over you.
"Sorry!! Sorry!! I didn't see you! I'll clean it up!" You say.
But cloudkicker had already flown to and from the womens restroom with paper towels, helping the waiter clean up the spill and drying you off.
As she wiped your head, you both were close to eachothers faces, she gazing at you, those beautiful purple eyes hypnotizing you.
She softly spoke, scratching the back of her mane. "Hey uhh, remember when you mentioned the dating thing?"
"Yeah. What about it? " you ask, getting back up on your feet and apologizing one more time to the waiter.
Cloudkicker spoke again. "You-you wanna maybe go out and look at the stars?"
You smile. "Sure. Sounds...ROMANTIC." She blushes again.
"Cloud, its ok. I understand whats going on. Whenever you feel appropriate, you can move in for the you-know-what."
She giggles and grabs your hand in her hoof. After paying the check, you walk out the restaurant and into a grassy field being used for nightime picnics and fellow stargazers.
You both sit down on the grass, your arms wrapped around Cloudkickers body, your hands clasped around her belly.
You lie down on your back and let out a relaxed content sigh. You both look up at the stars, as you start gently rubbing her belly, to her suprised delight. Her head rests underneath your chin.
"I never realized how beautiful the night sky is on a clear night like this. Just look at all those stars."
You say.
Cloud sighs tiredly and replies. "Yeah. Thats one of the perks of quiet small towns like this. All those tall buildings in Canterlot and Manhattan block the view. If you wanna get a REALLY good view, try cloudsdale."
After several more minutes of stargazing, you feel her roll over onto her belly, her muzzle buried in your neck. She lovingly nuzzles your neck, sighing happily.
Then, it happened. You see her face lift up in front of yours in place of the stars, a look of genuine love on her face. She leans in and presses her soft lips to yours, her soft nose pressing and rubbing against your nose as her eyes slowly close.
Her forehooves wrap tightly around your neck in a soft squeeze, her beautiful soft wings gently pull up your shirt as they slide underneath the shirt wrap themselves around both sides of your body and meet at your back, her feathers pressing deep into your skin. She pulls you onto your side, and she wraps her hind legs around your shins, and swishes her beautiful tail over your legs. she had you completely immobilized, gazing lovingly at you before leaning in for several more quick kisses and a long, firm kiss.
You run your fingers through her mane, causing her to shiver with delight as she raised a wing up to stroke your hair and ran her feathers through your hair.
She breaks the kiss and smiles at you. Cloudkicker nuzzles your cheek and gives one last kiss on your foreheas before softly speaking.
"So, how do I compare to the night sky?"
You feel your face grow warm as you feel your heart melt. "Absolutely gorgeous, and beautiful." You say.
She giggles and gives a full grin, showing off her pearly whites before leaning in for another deep kiss on your lips.
She breaks the kiss.
"So, do you have a spare bedroom at home?" She asks.
"No. Just the one. I live alone."
She taps her hoof on your nose. "Not anymore."
You both get up and walk back to your house. After you both showered, you were in your bedroom getting undressed and making your bed. After pulling back the blankets and laying down on your side for sleep, you hear the soft flap of wings enter the room. You see cloudkicker climb into bed with you, sliding closer to you. She raises a hoof up to your cheek, gently caressing in small circles.
Her forehooves wrap around your neck, goving a soft squeeze as her wings are wrapped protectively and lovingly around your body.
She nuzzles you, rubbing her soft furry cheek against your own, before kissing you once again for several seconds. She breaks the kiss and you both say your good nights.
As you shut your eyes and yawn, you feel her whisper into your ear.
"I love you."
