Meeting a new friend

Author's Note

Cookie Crumbles(Betty Bouffant) and Hondo Flanks(Magnum) are already existing characters in the MLP show. She and Hondo are the parents of Rarity and Sweetie Belle The reason why you don't see their (Cookie and Hondo's) tags is becasue the search bar doesn't have them.

Meeting a new friend

Cookie Crumbles sighed and took another sip from her drink. This was probably her third drink but she didn't care for this right now. She was sitting at the bar which was outside the hotel and was next to the swimming pool. And while the other mares and stallions were having fun she was just sitting there, drinking. It was obvious that something bothered the mare. She was so into into her thoughts that she didn't even notice the bartender who was constantly passing around just so he can throw a glance at her opened cleavege which gave a good look at her big breasts. Unfortinatley her thoughts were sudeenly interrupted by a deep but smooth voice.

"Sorry to disturb you. But is this seat taken?"

Cookie turned around and saw the one who asked her this. It was a tall and muscular male zebra with short grey mane, some facial hair and he was wearing a simple white shirt and brown shorts. Becasue he was so jacked up the shirt couldn't hide his well built body and big muscles. It took her some time before she answered, "Oh... No, it isn't. Feel free to sit."

The zebra smiled and sat down next to her. He then ordered a drink too. Cookie Crumbles tried to get back to her thoughts but this stranger was distracting her. Not only that but he was also looking at her, seemingly liking what he was looking at.

"Striped Fist."

Cookie Crumbles turned her head towards the zebra and looked at him with a questioning look. She then saw his extended hand and said,"Oh... Cookie Crumbles. Betty for the friends. Nice to meet you" she smiled.

Striped Fist took her hand and shook it gently. After that he asked her, "Why a beautiful mare like you sits here all alone?"

Cookie sighed and took another sip from her drink. She then answered him. " Well... This was supposed to be a romantic vacation for me and my husband. You know.. Some time for us away from the kids. But now.. I am not even sure how to describe it." she chuckled. This sudden confession was unexpected but understandable seeing how she was probably a bit drunk. This also made the zebra stallion to look at her hand and see the wedding ring on her finger, understanding what she meant. And the ring was rather impressive, having a small diamond on it which led the zebra to the conclusion that this mare and her husband were somewhat wealthy.

He then took a sip from his drink and said," While I know that you can't aways be around your partner I think that in this case your husband should show a bit more appreciation towards a beauty like you."

This made the mare to smile and she felt how her cheeks turn red. It has been a while she heard another male compliment her. She then decided to continue the topic." I guess. But if I have to be honest I feel that the spark has faded away. It is like there isn't any passion left in us." This was followed by a moment of silence which was soon interrupted by Cookie. "Sorry. I know this might be weird for you and don't feel obligated to continue this topic if you don't want to. "

Striped Fist looked at her and said cheer fully, "It's okay, mrs. I actually like this type of conversations. It shows me that you, for some reason, trust me enough to tell me all of this. And for an old guy like me it means a lot."

An old guy? Cookie wondered for a bit before she decided to ask him. "I know this is personal information but how old are you exactly?"

He looked forward and said, "Forty-three ." As the stallion saw the look of surprise on the mare's face after this information he asked her. "Something wrong?"

"No, no... It is just that.. You don't look like you are.. You look much younger"

The zebra then laughed and said, "Why, thank you. I want to ask you the same question but my mom told me that it is rude to ask a lady for her age."

Cookie Crumbles chuckled and then said, "Well... I guess that it is only fair if I also reveal my age. I am... Forty-one ."

Striped Fist had similar reaction but unlike her he simply said, "Well.. You seem far younger than this. Let me guess... Some kind of special lotion? Or you are one of those who try to stay all positive and don't get angry in order to not get any wrinkles?"

Cookie scratched the back of her head and said, "Well... I just try to live a healthy life, that's all. I exercise often, i try to follow some kind of diet. Nothing too special."

"That's nice. Besides you know what the equines are saying. An equine is as young as he/she feels to be."

"Yes, yes. But Um... I would like if we stop this topic here. I feel it got unnecessary long."

The zebra agreed and said, "Very well. Then what topic you suggest we disscus?' He then looked at her.

Cookie Crumbles thought for a little bit before saying." So.. This might sound a little bit specist and i am sorry if it is but this is the first time I meet a zebra with such... "

"Pony-like name?"

Cookie was suprised by this correct guess and continued. "Yes. From what I know usually the zebras have these exotic sounding names."

Striped Fist let out a small chuckle and said, "Yes. And in my case the actual name I have or atleast the one my mom used to call me is Askari."

"What does it mean?"

"Soldier. And the story behind it is so weird yet funny. You see... When i was small, probably around three or four years old I would sometimes get a stick from the backyard and put a pot, which I usually got from the kitchen on my head and would march around the house. It is... Pretty emberrassing. " He letted out another small chuckle, feeling so emberrased.

Cookie Crumbles couldn't help but smile at this funny and cute story. She then asked," Then why they didn't officially named you that? "

Striped Fist's smile dissapeared before he said," Well.. My father was on the opinion that if you want to be accepted in this society you must have more" normal" name. So he decided to name me Striped Fist. But to be honest i never really liked that name. But i get him. The times were diffrent and I know he made this to protect me. Even if it was in this strange, weird way."

The mare looked at him and said,trying to be supportive," I am sorry to her that.. " She wanted to say something else but didn't know what.

The zebra then said,"No need for this. It's not like you were the one who made the society speciest and all. Sorry.. I got carried away."

Cookie smiled and placed her hand on his. "It's alright. I like such topics becasue it shows me that you trust me. For some reason."

This made Striped to laugh and after that he responded. "Hehe... You are funny. I like you." he then looked her in the eyes and smiled.

But after the mare looked at her watch she said,"Sorry, but I have to go. Hondo is probably wondering where I am."

The zebra noded and replied. "Alright. But i hope that we would be able to talk again."

"Yes, of course."

"Very well. My room number is 304. Feel free to come and talk or ask me if you need help for anything."

Cookie smiled and said, "I will make sure to remember this. Goodbye for now, Askari. It was pleasure to meet you."

"The pleasure was all mine, Betty. See you another time."

With this they both separated. Striped Fist then ordered another drink. He then smiled and said to himself. "This is goind to be a fun vacation."

Troubles in the love nest

Cookie Crumbles was walking down the hallway, heading towards her room. Her head was filled with thoughts about this nice zebra she talked with. Her steps had almost dance-like rythym and she was cheefully humming. She was much more happy, knowing that this vacation won't be so boring after all.

As she got to her room and unlocked the door she entered in and greeted her husband with a cheerful voice. "Magnum, dear , I am back." Because she didn't get any response she decided to check if her husband was even here. She soon found him in their bedroom, watching the TV again. Since he didn't show any signs of actually noticing her, the mare decided to attract his attention by clearing her throat.

This made Hondo turn his head and look at her. "Oh, Betty. I didn't hear you coming in. Did you have fun?" He asked her with a monotone voice. The reason for that was he was watching the TV and in this case Cookie was distracting him from it.

She sighed and said, "Yeah I did." She then came closer to him, a little bit unsure. Then as the mare got on the bed and sat down next to him, she tried bringing his attention to her by snuggling up to him. To this his response was a small smile and he gently pushed her away a bit while saying, "Can you give me some space?"

Cookie Crumbles definitely didn't like hearing that but she decided to do as her husband wished. She then let out another sigh and stood up, heading towards the other room.

After a few hours, the couple was sitting at the table and was eating dinner. They were both silent. As Hondo Flanks looked at his wife he saw that she wasn't happy. Cookie was looking down at her plate, frowning at it, and instead of just simply eating, she was making slow, circular movements with her spoon in the soup.

Hondo guessed why she was like that, and it was probably becasue what he did back then in the bedroom. He thought about it and decided that he could atleast try to apologise. The old stallion then cleared his throat and said, "Look Betty, i am sorry for what I did back then. Come on, look at me."

At first Cookie didn't say anything, she was trying to see if he was being honest about it. Then suddenly as she felt the gentle touch of his hand on top of her she couldn't help but look up at him. And when she saw his warm smile, she smiled too. It seemed that there was some hope after all, but Hondo was just happy he managed to calm things down before they exploded in his face. The couple then continued eating the dinner, seemingly in better terms than before.

The same night, as the married couple prepared to go to bed, Cookie decided to try spicing things up. She went into the bathroom, holding something, and after a while she walked out, dressed in the new erotic one piece underwear she bought some time ago.

As she made her way to the bedroom, Hondo saw his magnificent wife dressed in this provocative clothing, which allowed him to see her amazing forms and curves. Her smug grin grew even more as she saw her husband's red face. Her hand moved across her lovley body and after making her way towards the bed, she got on it and crawled on top of her husband. Cookie then leaned closer to Hondo's face and gave him a kiss on the lips.

While Cookie was definitely in the mood, Hondo, on the other hand, didn't feel like it; as Cookie continued to kiss him and even tried to move on to the next base Hondo suddenly ended it all with the words, "I am sorry Betty but I can't continue this. I.. have a headache."

Cookie looked at him and slowly got off him. Hondo was feeling bad, but he just couldn't force himself into something like this. Yes, Cookie was an amazing mare and was definitely skilled when it came to the activities in the bed, but the stallion wasn't feeling anything towards his wife at this point. Even the look of the mare's amazing body wasn't enough to bring any spark of sexual desire into him,and so they both just turned off the lights and tried to sleep.

Striped Fist slowly opened his eyes, woken up from his sleep by the sunlight from the outside. He rolled around for a bit in his bed and after he realised he couldn't go back to sleep the zebra sat up in his bed. He then stretched, and as he looked down, he noticed his huge morning erection. This made him remember the nice dream he had which involved the beautiful mare he met the previous day. He just met her so it felt weird for him to have such dreams. But then again it was hard to forget such good looking mare, especially with an amazing body like hers.

The zebra then got up and headed towards the bathroom to take a quick shower and after that he prepared, putting on a simple hawaiian shirt and a pair of blue shorts. He walked outside, and after he locked the door, he headed towards Cookie's room.

In the meantime Cookie was still in bed. She wasn't exactly sleeping but she didn't feel like getting up, but the ringing at the front door made her slowly get up and after she rubbed her eyes she headed towards to see who this was. She wasn't very happy and was definitely not in a mood for a morning chat, but when she opened the door her irritation completely disappeared as she saw who was standing there. It was the same zebra stallion she met yesterday. She rubbed her eyes and asked him, "What do you want?"

Striped Fist looked at her and she was quite honestly an adorable mess. Her long greyish, persian blue mane, which was usually molded into a nice beehive, was now all loosened up and rather messy. She wore a tired, annoyed look which could have been seen in her eyes and the small wrinkles under them which were in contrast with the smooth skin on the rest of her face. She also sounded kinda cranky.

"I am sorry that I interrupted your beauty sleep but I was just wondering if you would like to come with me for a walk. I can probably show you around. And by that I mean outside the resort."

Cookie yawned and thought for a moment, then looked back and said,"Okay. Just give me a few minutes to change."

"Sure, but to be honest I wouldn't mind if you came dressed like this." He pointed towards Cookie's sexy underwear. Her cheeks immediately flushed red and she closed the door as fast as possible. The zebra just chuckled and crossed his arms, waiting for her to get ready.

Cookie, face still red from blushing, walked into the bedroom and began to prepare for going out. Just then Hondo Flanks woke up and as he saw his wife taking clothes from the wardrobe, he couldn't help himself but to say, "Hey. Good morning, honey."

Cookie didn't respond, she just turned her head slightly, showing him that she atleast heard him. Hondo knew why that was for and decided to say something else. "So, what are we going to do today?"

"I am going out for a walk."

"Oh, nice. Do you want me to come?"

"Not really. I wouldn't want you to have another headache." Cookie said and headed towards the bathroom.
Hondoo looked down and mumbled to himself, "I guess I deserved it, heh." He then sighed and wondered what to do.

In the meantime, outside the room, Striped Fist was still standing there, arms crossed, nervously tapping his foot. It had been 20 minutes since she went back inside. A slight groan escaped his mouth as he asked himself,"What's taking her so long to get ready? It is not like we are going somewhere special."

He was about to start knocking, or to be more exact, hitting the door but then he saw the door open and Cookie walked out, wearing a simple, yet nice looking, red summer dress with an opened cleavege and a yellow scarf around her neck. Her hair, just like yesterday, was made into a beehive. The zebra's eyes passed for a quick moment across her lovley body before he looked her in the eyes and asked,"What took you so long?"

"A lady needs some time to make sure she looks good, " Cookie said to him. She meant this more as a joke but because Striped Fist was still upset for having to wait so long he didn't find it funny.

He managed to stay calm, however, and simply said, "A lady like you doesn't need to spend so much time in order to look good, so that is not a very good excuse." He was looking directly at her, smiling a little bit, trying to hide his frustration.

Cookie's fuchsia colored cheeks blushed once more and said, "Oh, uh, thank you. So, where exactly are we going now?"

The zebra scratched the back of his neck and answered her question,"Well, how about we go to the beach."

"Oh, but I didn't bring my swimsuit."

Striped Fist then imagined his new "friend" in bikinis which made him grin, wanting to see this, but instead of saying one of his usual flirty comments he just simply said, "Oh no. Not in that way. We will just walk around it, enjoy the view. You know, stuff which is more appropiate for equines our age." He ended with a slight chuckle.

This made Cookie chuckle too. She proceeded to follow him as he turned around and started walking.

The things got kinda screwed up.

Striped Fist and Cookie Crumbles were walking slowly down the stone road, which lead towards the beach. It had been around seventeen minutes since they left the resort behind their backs and both of them were completely silent.

Since her companion wasn't saying a word and she didn't want to annoy him with her rambling, Cookie decided to use this to her advantage and looked her surroundings. And while it wasn't something amazing or unseen, being made mostly of singular small palms, which was surrounded by short grass, but it was still nice to look at and you couldn't see much of that back in Ponyville.

And while the mare was busy enjoying the nature around her, her new friend was walking next to her, looking straight ahead, with hands in his pockets, and had a serious look on his face. Since yesterday, after he talked with her, Striped Fist was trying to come up with a plan on how to take her to the bed.

When it came to such things, the zebra usually didn't spend so much time just walking around and talking and overall doing nothing. He would go to the mare, flirt with her, maybe buy her a drink and would turn the talk to something more lewd and inappropiate. He didn't even need to say much.
, just showing off the huge buldge in his pants was sometimes enough for the mares to hop in his bed.

But this time his target was not some random young bimbo college mare or a needy, size queen slut, but a married woman who, even through she had problems with her marriage, wouldn't just jump in the bed with the first sweet-talking macho she met. Besides, this wasn't going to be a one-night thing, so Striped Fist needed to be more patient and clever with his tactics.

Soon they reached the beach and as soon as their feet stepped onto the soft sand, Cookie Crumbles looked at the zebra and asked him, "So, Askari, can I ask you a question?"

Striped Fist turned his eyes towards her and simply said, "I don't know, can you?" He chuckled and continued. "Sure, sweetheart. Ask away."

Cookie giggled and asked him,"Are you married or in a relationship with someone?"

The old zebra grinned to himself, but he quickly took a more serious look and answered her. "Nope. I am completely free for any girl who wants to have some fun." The zebra winked at her.

This act made Cookie's cheeks slightly red again. She looked aside, not sure what to say in return.

Why was this still happening? Why did she constantly blush when he said or did something even slightly flirty? It was not that rare for her to be flirted with. It actually happened quite a lot, but she usually just smiled and thanked them. This was actually the first time she genuinely blushed because of a compliment. Was it because of his behaviour? Well, maybe. Cookie had to admit that Askari was definitely way more confident, compared to the previous ponies who flirted with her, but it was not only that: his deep and smooth manly voice, which managed to send a waves of pleasurable shivers across her body everytime he spoke, his strong and athletic looking body. She bit her lower lip and just imagined the feel of those hard muscular pecs and abs and- What is going on with me?!

Luckily for her, she managed to get out of these thoughts the moment she turned her look towards Striped Fist who had a puzzled look on his face, one of his eyebrows raised up. "Are you okay?" he asked, not sure why the face of his friend suddenly got so red even though he hadn't said anything.

"Um, yeah. Don't worry about me. I am fine. I just... I was just thinking about something," the mare said, smiling nervously.

Striped Fist shrugged his shoulders. "If you say so."

With that the two continued their walk across the suprisingly empty beach. There were little to none ponies on the beach. The sun, despite being relativley high, was still tolerable and the sand underneath the two friend's feet was still nice to walk on, if somewhat cold.

As the they stopped, Striped Fist took out his phone and asked Cookie, "Hey, would you like to take a picture together? After all it will be a nice memory... For me. But still."

Cookie Crumbles chuckled a little bit and answered him, "Sure."

The zebra smiled and as he opened the camera on his phone, he came by Cookie's side and gently wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her closer to him.

Cookie felt how Striped placed his firm palm right on her upper thigh. Her cheeks again became slightly red. Then as the zebra raised up his hand, pointing the camera at them, she made the victory sign with her fingers.

"Say cheese!" Striped Fist said, smiling at the camera.

Cookie said it out loud too, smiling, but the moment the picture was snapped she felt how Askari's grip on her thigh tightened up. He was groping her. Her face immediately turned bright red again and she managed to sneak out of his grasp. Striped Fist noticed this and frowned.

"Oh, please, don't pull this crap on me! You know you liked it. I can see it in your eyes and the way you look at me!" the zebra said out loud, almost shouting at the mare. His voice echoed throughout the air. He then crossed his arms, still looking her in the eyes.

Cookie was caught off guard, not sure how to respond to this. She just lowered her head and tried to avoid eye contact. Her cheeks and face remained the same red color as before. Her eyes got watery and she sniffed a little bit.

The two were just standing there, the akward silence between them growing with every second. Realising that to some extent he is the reason for this akwardness and fearing he might loose the chance to talk with her again, Striped sighed and decided to do something about this. He scratched the back of his neck, and as he turned his head aside, said, "I, Uh... Sorry about that, Betty." His voice was much more low now and he couldn't even look her in the eyes.

To that Cookie simply said, "Oh, no. It's okay." She went silent again for a few seconds. She then took a quick glance at her watch before saying, "I should probably go back to the resort. It is getting late and I don't feel very well."

The zebra looked at Cookie and sighed. "Alright. Do you want me to escort you?"

"If you want to," Cookie said, mumbling, and turned around. She began walking.

The zebra just stood there and watched as the mare slowly headed towards the resort, leaving him all alone. Striped Fist groaned and kicked the sand, sending some of it flying in the air."Fuck! What the actual fuck, man!" He wanted to destroy something around him.

Striped Fist calmed down rather fast and decided to try to think of an excuse, and the best way he could think of it was at the bar. Maybe he could even get some advice. With that he headed towards to the closest bar his eyes could spot.

What we feel

Jimbo walked out of the storage room, and as he came behind the bar counter, looked around. There was no trace of the previous customer and the only thing that was left behind was a single glass, underneath which was placed a small amount of money. Jimbo sighed and began cleaning the glass. It didn't take him long and, just as he finished, he heard a deep male voice ordering him.

"Pour me some whiskey and don't even think about putting it in a small glass."

Jimbo turned around and saw who this "charming" equine was. It was a jacked-up zebra - around in his late thirties or early fourties. The old donkey turned around and soon Striped Fist got his whiskey in a fairly big glass which was filled to the brim. The zebra looked at it and then at the bartender.

"Thanks," he mumbled out and took the glass. He lifted it up and took a big sip of the whiskey, leaving about half inside. Striped put the glass down with a slam and let out a sigh. His eyes were entirely focused on the brownish - gold liquid and his head was laid crooked in his hand.

Jimbo could see that something was not right with this guy. The donkey wondered if he should say something or let the zebra mope. But in the end he decided to just simply ask him.

"Hey, uh, is everything alright?"

At first there was no response. The question made Striped Fist lift his head and look at the bartender. Striped Fist sighed and responded. "Not exactly."

"Do you want to talk about it?"

Striped lifted up one of his eyebrows and asked him, "Do you really want to listen to it? Besides why do you even care?"

"Come on, pal. Are you serious? Every bartender has to help or atleast try to cheer up his clients; besides, everything we talk about and discuss now, will stay only between us."

Striped still wasn't very sure if he should trust this donkey. But then again he had nothing to lose so he decided to open up. The zebra lifted up the glass, and after he drank the remaining whiskey, began talking.

"Well, alright then. You see, the thing that is bugging me involves a girl, a mature mare to be more exact."

The zebra paused for a long while which made Jimbo slightly tilt his head to the left side and ask, "And?"

Striped scratched the back of his neck and continued, a bit nervously, "Well, I kinda messed up the things and lost my temper, then shouted at her."

Jimbo squinted his eyes and said, "I think there is something missing in your story - and I mean a lot - but I won't ask for details becasue I am not sure if I want to know about them. Tell me, what is she like?"

"She is honestly an amazing mare: kind, sweet and sexy as hell," Striped Fist explained. His voice got more up-beat and his eyes sparked up with joy for a quick moment.

This made Jimbo to smile and he continued with another question. "I see. So, what relationship you two exactly have?"

This question made the zebra to look aside to avoid eye contact. "We met at the bar back in the resort we are both in. To be honest we have known eachother for like one day."

"And what exactly made you get so angry with her if you two just recently met?"

Striped letted out another sigh and looked at his empty glass. He stood like that for a few seconds and as he finally decided to answer, his voice was quiet and almost mumbling."I guess I am just not made for this kind of stuff." The zebra then lifted his head to look at the bartender who was just looking at him with a questioning look.

"Never mind," Striped Fist said with a bit of a groan. He then took out a few bits and after he placed them on the counter, he stood up, ready to go. Jimbo decided he could atleast give this guy some final advice before he goes away. And just when the zebra was ready to go, he heard Jimbo's voice.

"Look, buddy, I am not sure what has happened between you and this girl, but from what I can see, it seems you are not too good with making new friends. And in this particular case I want to ask you one simple question: do you want to establish a real relationship with this mare or it is just one night thing where you - " the bartender paused for a second before he forced the rest out "- try to satisfy your needs and then walk away?"

Instead of simply walking away, Striped Fist was just standing there, with his back turned against bartender. The zebra stallion was silent and his eyes were changing their focus from somewhere in the empty distance to the tips of his feet. He was breathing deep and slowly and the pose he had taken, with his fists clenched right next to his thighs, made Jimbo a little bit nervous since he wasn't sure what kind of emotions his words inflicted in this fella and more importantly, if this would backfire at him.

The donkey asked the right question. "What am I feeling towards her," Striped Fist questioned himself. Cookie was definitely an amazing mare but she was also way above his league.

Even if he and she got together would he be able to satisfy her? Would he be able to keep the spark between them burning? And most importantly, why exactly he wanted to be together with her? He thought about this and realised that he wasn't exactly sure if he sees Betty as a potential romantic partner or just as an object that no one else should have.

He met this mare yesterday and have known her for half a day yet she made him ask himself questions no previous girl has ever had. She sure was a special one.

Slowly, the zebra turned his head towards the old donkey and said in a quiet, almost whispering tone, "Thanks for the drink mate. Also, keep the change." With that Striped slowly walked away, leaving the bar and the confused bartender behind his back. He then headed towards the resort, thinking about what he would say to Betty.

Cookie Crumbles was sitting on the couch in the living room, staring into the black void of emptyness that was the screen of the TV. All of the curtains were closed but there were still small amounts of sunlight that was entering in.

The mare was all alone, her husband nowhere to be seen. Luckily for her, she still managed to unlock and get into the room thanks to second key she had.

Cookie letted out another sigh and looked up at the ceiling. Beams of light were entering through the curtain, leaving stripes on the ceiling. Stripes... Cookie grumbled to herself.

"Rude jerk," the mare suddenly bursted out. But as much she wanted to forget it, one thing in particular couldn't get out of her mind. His words. And as much she didn't want to admit it, he was right to some extent. She did find him attractive and to be honest with herself, she may have imagined him naked a little bit. But that didn't matter now.

Her thoughts were suddenly interrupted by the ringing of the bell on the front door. Cookie Crumbles guessed who this might be so at first she didn't move from her seat and began waiting for the annoying buzzing to stop. But as it kept going and going, the mare decided to finally open and see who this is. She got up, groaning a little bit, and headed towards the door. As she opened it, she saw the familiar face of Striped Fist.

But this time, instead of having his usual cocky and smug look, he appeared more guilty. The zebra was looking aside and his downcasted eyes were trying to avoid contact with the mare standing infront of him.

Cookie Crumbles slightly lifted one of her eyebrows. She was leaning against the casing of the door with her arms crossed, observing the zebra. But as she tried to say something, Striped Fist interrupted her with the words, "Please, before you say anything, can I speak?"

Cookie squinted her eyes slightly but then nodded in agrement and remained silent, wanting to hear what the zebra had to say.

Striped Fist took a deep breath and letted out a painful sigh. He then looked tha mare, standing infront him, in the eyes and started talking. "Okay, look. I know what I did was wrong, I shouldn't have yelled at you. It's just that -" Striped bit his lip, his eyes flashed left and right as he tried to conjure the right words "- you are the first mare I have genuinely tried to have actual conversations, instead of just flirting and then hop into the bed. If you haven't got it already I am a bit of a whore.' Striped Fist letted out a nervous chuckle and scratched the back of his neck.

Striped Fist managed to steal a glance at Cookie’s face wherein he noticed she hadn’t dropped her serious expression at all. Striped heart thumped hard in his chest.

"My point is, I would like to start from the begining and build up a genuine relationship-I mean friendship." With that the zebra stopped talking and looked at the mare, nervous about what she would say.

Cookie was sceptical about this. Askari's words sounded nice, but his intentions might not be. But then again Cookie had nothing major to loose if she accepts this. It also seemed he was somewhat honest, given his awkward behaviour. Unfortunatley there could be a problem if Hondo finds out and sees it in the wrong way. But right now he was no where to be seen so that was out of the way.

The mare sighed and said, "Alright, I forgive you for what you did and said back then and-"

Before she could finish her sentence, Striped Fist quickly wraped his arms around her and hugged her tightly. Cookie was caught off guard but she still smiled and patted him on the back. The things unfortunately got a more awkward turn the moment Cookie and Striped Fist broke the hug and saw how a few feet away from them a grey skinned male unicorn with a mustache was standing and was looking at them.

Striped raised his eyebrow, but as he turned towards Cookie Crumbles, he saw how terrified she was, the color of her face had completely dissapeared and her eyes were wide open.

"B-Betty?," Hondo said, almost forcing himself to do so.

"Magnum, it is not what it appears to be."

The discovery

"Betty, what is going on? Who is this guy," Hondo asked, pointing at Striped Fist who just stood there with crossed arms, not sure if he should say anything.

"Magnum, I know what you are thinking, but I can assure you-"

"Assure me what?! That you are meeting with this-" Hondo tried holding back, and in the same time thinking of, an insult "-this zebra behind my back and you are doing Celestia knows what?!"

The male unicorn yelled out those last words and looked at his wife and her "lover". His face was all red and he was breathing heavily. Cookie didn't like this though and scowled at him.

"First of all, this zebra has a name-" Cookie began walking towards her husband, holding up her finger in a disaproval "-second, I have known him only for a day so you don't have any right to assume that I am cheating on you. And third, maybe if you spended more time with me instead of just simply watching that stupid TV maybe I wouldn't sneak away and "do Celestia knows what" with someone else!"

" Attention?! Is that why you are doing this?!"

No, for fuck's sake, but it would be nice if I can get some from you," Cookie crossed her arms and looked aside. She could feel how her body was shaking, never before feeling so angry and yelling so much. The unicorn mare then passed a quick glance towards Striped Fist, who gave her a confused expression.

Hondo sighed and scratched the back of his head. The two unicorns remained silent for a while until Cookie herself decided to break the silence barrier

"Let's get inside and discuss it on a more private note," she said and slightly turned her look towards Striped Fist, trying to tell him that they would like to be left alone. The zebra got the hint and silently walked passed them, trying to ignore the dirty looks his friend's husband threw at him.

Soon as Striped Fist left, the married couple walked back inside their room. Hondo closed the door and followed Cookie, who headed towards the living room. But the moment the male unicorn tried to stop his wife, Cookie turned around and said, "I think we should take a seat before we talk."

Hondo could hear his own heartbeat throbbing in his head. He felt how both hot and cold waves striked his body and how hard it was for him to say anything, fearing what may this cause.

Seeing that her husband wasn't going to say or do anything, Cookie decided to begin, she took a deep breath and began talking, "Magnum, I think that this can't continue anymore. I mean, you are a nice pony and a great husband and father, but I feel like there is nothing in between us anymore. I feel like the love has completely disappeared from this marriege and-"

"Betty, are you trying to say that-" Hondo looked around like he was about to say something that no one else should hear "-you want us to divorce?"

Cookie turned her look aside, as she sighed, and said. "Well, it is... An option."

Even though she didn't explicitly said "Yes", those words were enough of a confirmation for Hondo's biggest fear and the stallion choked on his words as he tried to find a place to sit.

Cookie thought that Hondo was overreacting and, as he sat down, she continued talking, this time her voice carried a tone of dissaproval.

"You don't need to be so dramatic, honey. Especially after you showed me that your love for me has-" Stopped paused and tried to think of a word to describe her husband's current feelings "- gone downhill." Her eyes began shifting around the room nervously, not sure if her words were the correct ones

Even though Cookie didn't use the right words, Hondo got what she was trying to say, but what really was the worst part, at least for him, was that she was right. Ho do knew it, but he didn't want to admit it out loud.

After another brief moment of silence Hondo finally managed to say something. "What about the kids," he asked as he managed to force out the words.

Cookie thought about this. For a moment she felt how the guilt slightly crawled into her mind but she shooked her head and responded, "Both Rarity and Sweetie Belle are big enough to understand what is going on. Besides, I think it would be more harmful for Sweetie if this continues. I wouldn't want our youngest daughter to grow into environment in which her mother and father don't love eachother."

Hondo was on the verge of tears. The male unicorn put both of his hands on his face as the feelings of guilt and regret slowly took over him.

Looking at her husband, Cookie couldn't help but feel bad for herself. She came closer and kneeled down in front of him and, as she put her hand on his shoulder, she continued talking, "I know it is hard, but you have to understand. It is for our own and the children's good. Also, even if we divorce, I won't forbid you to see the kids nor I have any interest in taking your money or possesions. All I want is for us to be happy."

Hondo couldn't take it any more and pushed Cookie aside as he got up and headed towards the bedroom where he closed himself, leaving Cookie all alone in the room. The mare let out another painful sigh and decided it's best for now to leave him alone. She then took the her key and walked out of the room, closing the door behind her.

Cookie moved past the empty swimming pool and, as she took a small turn to the left, she headed towards the resort's bar. The young bartender just stood there, with his amrs crossed and was waiting for the next client. He soon spotted the coming mare and, as she was coming closer and closer, the young male pony gulped and he tried not to look at her bouncing bust. As Cookie sat down, he said, "Good afternoon, ma'am. What can I serve you today?"

Cookie looked at him and said with a boredom, "One margarita. Big if possible."

The young bartender nodded and quickly got himself doing the job and soon the large glass was slipped towards her. She thanked him and took a big sip out if it.

As Cookie put down the glass, she thought about this whole situation. It seemed so over the top and bizzare that she thought if this didn't make anybody laugh, it would most likley be just one big mind fuck . She came here, in this beautiful place, hoping to somehow fix a marriege that was already going downhill yet became friends with a good looking gigolo, for who she may or may not have feelings, and was now thinking about divorcing her husband.

And to top it all off she was now on the same exact place where all of this began, doing the exact same thing. Who knew that the life could be such an ironic bitch? Cookie took another gulp, this time bigger than before, but as she put the glass down she heard the same deep and manly voice that arguably started all of this, asking in a jokingly teasing tone, "Is the seat taken?"

At least some equines had a sense of humor even in moments like these.

Cookie just slightly turned her head and nodded, releasing another painful sigh. The smile on Striped's face quickly dissapeared as he sat down next to her. Another silence lapsed between the two until suddenly broken by Striped Fist’s question, “So, how did the talk go?”

"Well-" Cookie looked aside, focusing her eyes somewhere in the distance and murmured, "-it could have gone better but it was still not the worst expirience one could go through. Magnum didn't take it that well though."

Striped shoke his head silently in a sign of understanding. He then scratched the back of his neck and akwardly mumbled out, "Betty, I, uh, apologise I had caused you these problems. If you blame me for all of this, I atleast understand why."

Cookie turned her head and eyes towards the zebra and after another quick sip from the drink, she said, "Blaming you for all of this would be the easier way, but not the right way. Something like this would have happened, sooner or later. If anything, you were just a witness who happened to be there at the wrong time."

Thic comment made Striped Fist chuckle a little bit and after he calmed down, the zebra smiled and looked at Cookie." You know, this is the first time I meet a mare like you."

Cookie rolled her eyes and said in almost annoyed tone of voice, "Yeah, yeah, I got it. The girls you usually go out with are all young and dumb and I am the first mature mare you have ever been with or something like this."

Striped scratched the back of his neck and mumbled out, "Damn. I guess I need to learn some new phrases." this was followed by another small chuckle.

This small chat managed to distract Cookie from her dilemmatic thoughts, but it didn't took long for the idea of divorcing her husband to come back in her head. With this the smile on her face soon faded away.

Striped noticed this and tried to think of something that will cheer her up. As and idea came into his mind, he coughed, so he could attract her attention and said, "So, um, I know that the situation you are in is not the best and if you are in a need of something, like a place where to stay or maybe something else, you can count on me. After all I feel like I got you into this mess so I'm willing to help you."

Those words managed to put a smile on the mare's face and, as she drinked the rest of her margarita, she said," Thank you, sweetheart."

Cookie and Striped walked out of the elevator and headed towards Cookie's room. Even though the mare didn't insist, Striped still decided to escort her, partly becasue he wanted to make sure her husband doesn't decide to do anything stupid.

As they reached the door, Cookie stopped and turned around. She looked the zebra into his eyes and smiled. "Thank you for the company and the nice things you said. I really needed some of them." She let out a small chuckle

Striped Fist smiled and responded, "No need to thank me, princess. This is what the friends do."

He then gave her a small hug and turned around, waving for a goodbye as he walked away. Cookie let out a sigh of relief and walked inside. But strangley, it was like there was one inside. That on itself wasn't so worrying but what made Cookie even more anxious was the fact that the door at the bedroom was opened. As the unicorn pushed it slightly and peeked inside, she couldn't believe this has happened.

The large wardrobe was completely empty, its doors being left wide open. All of Hondo's possesions were missing and the only thing was left were Cookie's clothes, which were lying on the bed, being mashed into one big pile. And on top of this pile were placed two things.

The first one was Hondo's wedding ring and the second was a small note on which was written the words, "I hope you are happy with the choice you made. Don't try to contact with me or the children or I will make sure you don't see them ever again."

A helpful friend

It was 18:34. Striped Fist was leaning in his armchair, his legs being placed on top of the small table infront of him, and was watching the TV. The male zebra let out a small sigh of pleasure as he closed his eyes for a moment and thought about his recent achievement.

"You finally did it, Striped, you clever bastard! You managed to become friends with a hot babe without the need of doing her," he praised himself. Striped then reached for the bottle with whiskey and filled his glass once more. "You are getting better and better."

But just as he was about to take a sip from it, the zebra heard the doorbell ringing. This caused his smile to dissappear from his face and with an unhappy groan, Striped got up from his spot, turned off the TV and headed towards the door to see who this jackass was and why he was bothering him now.

Once Striped opened the door though, he was not only surprised by the fact who was standing there, but also shocked becasue of how she looked. Cookie was crying, her beautiful cornflower blue eyes were red from all the tears and she was holding some clothes in her arms.

"What happened," Striped asked, feeling sad for his friend, but also weirdly curious.

Cookie wiped the tears from her face, sniffling, as she handed Striped the note Hondo has left. Striped scanned the note quickly before squashing it.

"Crazy motherfucker," Striped muttered to himself.

Even though he was angry and disgusted, he decided to ignore his frustration and instead comfort Cookie. Striped opened the door and allowed her to enter in. As Cookie walked into the living room, Striped got into the kitchen and quickly filled a glass with water to which her handed Cookie.

"Thank you," she said, trying to hold back her tears, as she began drinking in large gulps. Once she was done, Striped kneeled down and asked her with a soft and comforting tone, "Okay, calm down now, Bett. Can you explain me what exactly happened?"

Cookie breathed in deeply and exhaled. She wiped off her running nose and tried to explain the situation. "Well, after our talk, I got inside my room only to find that Magnum has dissapeared with all of our baggage except for those clothes. And on top of them were this note and his wedding ring."

Striped frowned to himself and after a short, silent pause, he asked, "Did he take anything else? Like, do you atleast have your phone?"

Cookie turned her head aside and her eyes filled with tears once more. Striped got the idea and cursed Hondo in his thoughts once more, but he figured stewing in his anger would get him now where. Now the important thing was to calm his friend and find a way to help her.

"But how," Striped asked himself. This was his first time acting as a supporting friend, a shoulder on which Cookie to cry on. Sadly, the only thing he could thought of at the moment was to just give her a small hug and say, "I will be on the balcony if you need me." And with that the zebra stood up and walked away, leaving Cookie to cry out her pain. But before we walked out on the balcony, Striped stopped and let out a small sigh and the words "I am sorry" dissapeared into the air.

Striped spat out from the balcony and focused his look towards the empty road at the distance. The thing that led him to this place. Oh boy, what a vacation this was. The zebra shook his head and another exhale escaped his chest. He then put his hands on to his face and said to himself, "Striped, you dumb fuck, how can you be such an idiot? All those muscles and not a single brain cell. You can't even offer your friend help. All you can do is to sit here and act as a pussy. Truly pathetic."

The zebra was about to continue to degrade himself if it wasn't for Cookie's intervention. The mare came next to Striped and rested her hands on the guardrail. She looked at her friend who knows who, at this moment, seemed as troubled as her. Cookie rubbed her red and puffed cornflower blue eyes and yawned.

"How are you feeling, Bett?"

Cookie sighed and massaged her forehead with her fingers. "I am feeling so tired. It just has been so hard for me for the last weeks and months. Being sexually neglected, feeling like I have no worth and now this. Stuff like that can really wear out an equine."

Striped looked aside and moved his hand across his short mane. "Honestly, I can't imagine what an asshole you must be to make a beautiful mare, like you, think so poorly of herself."

"Well-" Cookie looked at Striped "-I guess we just found out."

This caused the two of them to share a small chuckle.

"You know, honestly I envy you." Cookie suddenly said.

This caused Striped to elevate one of his eyebrows and he immediately responded with, "Really? And what exactly makes you feel this way," he asked with a teasing tone.

"Well, you are bassically free to do whatever you want, you don't need to worry about or answer to your partner and you can have sex with whoever you want without feeling guilty or obliged to tell somebody."

Slowly, the smile on the zebra's face disappeared and he turned his look forward. "I see. Yeah, I guess it is like that. But honestly, I wish it wasn't. I mean, it may seem fun at first glance, but after doing it so many times, it gets boring. And on surface level I may seem as just another fuckboy, who sees the mares as nothing more than a sex toy, but in reality, I am as troubled as you are and I've had my fair share of struggles; one of them being the idea of monogamy."

Cookie didn't know how to react to this, but after a few seconds she placed her hand on Striped's shoulder and said, "I am sorry to hear this."

Striped rolled his eyes, getting slightly annoyed by this trivial apology, and his iconic smirk appeared once more. He then stood up and firmly, but gently, took Cookie's hand and said, "You don't have to, really. After all, you were the one who bringed this idea back to life. I know that it sounds very cheesy, especially since we have known each other for just a day, but in those hours you made me realise what I really want from life.

A big, warm smile brightened on Cookie's face. "It may be cheesy, but I am still glad I managed to influence you in such a way," she chuckled. Cookie then came even closer to Striped and wrapped her arms around the zebra's massive body, hugging him. Striped smiled and patted her on the back in return.

At 20:23 the two friends were sitting together for dinner, just about finished with the meal Striped prepared . After Cookie sallowed the last bite of it, she wiped her mouth with the napkin and said cheerfully, "Askari, this meal was amazing. You are such a great cook."

A prideful smirk appeared on the zebra's face and he leaned backwards in his seat, his hands rested behind his head. "Thanks, hot stuff. It honestly wasn't anything special, I do this almost every day."

Cookie chuckled and before Striped Fist could say anything, she took the plates and headed towards the small kitchen where she began to wash them. Striped gazed over at Cookie. She was humming to herself, a smile adorned her face, as she rolled back and forth on her feet and even moving her tail from side to side. .

"So, uh, from the note I got you have kids, right?"

The mare was so into this act that it took her a few seconds before she could react and answer to the question her friend asked her

"Oh, um, yeah. Yes I have. Two girls," Cookie turned off the water and after drying her hands, she came back to Striped and sat at the table.

"How old are they," he asked as he crossed his arms.

"Well, Rarity, the older one, just turned eight-teen years old. As for her sister Sweetie Belle, she is thirt-teen."

"So, Rarity and Sweetie Bell? Cute names. To be honest I've never been very good with kids and to be honest I am not exactly the type of person kids should be around, ya know," Striped scratched his chin and slightly looked aside. His smirking grin slowly faded away.

Cookie nodded and slowly tapped with her fingers onto the table before she looked over to the zebra and asked him, slightly blushing. "I don't want to sound like I am nagging, but when exactly are you planning to leave the resort?"

"Tommorow morning. How does that sound," Striped answered with no hesitation. Cookie's eyes lighted up with happiness, but the mare managed to contain her emotions and simply smiled. "Thank you," she whispered to herself.

Striped Fist stood up and after stretching a little bit, he asked his friend, "So, would you like to watch some TV?"

"Sure, why not?" Cookie stood up and followed Striped to the small couch in the living room. As they sat down, Striped placed his arm around Cookie, but this time, instead of pulling away from him, the mare rested her head on to the zebra's shoulder, much for his surprise. But he soon got used to it and, after taking the remote controller, asked her, "What type of movies you like to watch?"

"Are you sure you don't want me to sleep on the couch, Askari," Cookie's voice came out of outside the bedroom door. Striped Fist rolled his eyes and tried to sound as polite as possible, "Yes, I am sure I don't want you to sleep on the couch, Bett. A lady like you needs something more comfortable and besides, if all of this fuss is about the sexy pijama you're wearing, don't worry. I have already saw it so you won't surprise me or anything," he ended his sentence with a slight chuckle.

From outside came no respond and Cookie soon walked in, her fuchsia colored cheeks being slightly red. As she laid down next to Striped, he turned slightly aside, mostly to hide the growing buldge in his pants. "So, in case you wake up and find me gropping you or being too close to you, I give you the permission to kick me. Just don't kick me in the crotch,
okay?"

Cookie raised her eyebrow and asked, "Does this happens often?"

"Well, usually when there is a girl in my bed we are... Doing stuff and those stuff requires us to be very, and I mean VERY close to one another so-" Striped felt how his face became red and the zebra wondered if he should even finish this sentence.

But Cookie got the idea and simply sighed. "Honestly, I haven’t been intimate in such a long time that I honestly wouldn’t care if you did." With that being said she rested her head on the soft pillow.

The intrigued zebra looked from side to side and asked his friend, "Is this an invitation or-"

"Good night, Askari!"

The lights were then turned off and both tried to fall asleep.

First time.

Cookie Crumbles sighed and rubbed her tired eyes. It has been three hours since they went to bed and she still couldn't fall asleep. The only thing the mare could do at this moment was to just stare somewhere in the darkness. Cookie wasn't sure if this insomnia was due to her being excited that she would finally deal with this whole situation or the troubling thoughts about what will come after she gets back to Ponyville. The divorce, the splitting of the property, the custody of Sweetie Belle.

But in an ironic, almost comedic sort of way, her thoughts were yet again interrupted by Striped Fist; this time by his snore. The larger male equine grunted in his sleep and turned around on his back, causing the bed to creek a little bit.

Cookie rolled her eyes and yawned. Finally, maybe she could finally get some sleep. But one thing in particular made her ignore this thought, as she turned her head to her left and looked at the long thing that was rising up from the lower half of Striped's torso. Cookie couldn't believe it.

Was that... His penis?

Even though the room wasn't illuminated in any way, Cookie could still manage to determine the cock's size and form. And by Celestia, the word "amazing" could not describe it. Its length of ten inches ,while phenomenal, was not what made it so weirdly intriguing for Cookie. The reason it made such impression on the tired mare was its thickness. Just by looking at it Cookie determined that it must be as thick as her forearm and maybe even more.

"Are you crazy, you can't possibly think about that," Cookie scolded herself. She tried to look away and ignore this temptating piece of meat, but the months of sexual frustration caused her to crawl closer to her friend's waist and almost touch his manhood with her nose.

Cookie felt how her mouth filled with saliva as she sniffed Striped's cock. The smell that was coming from it was so strong and musky yet very hypnotising. It caused Cookie to close her eyes for a moment and the horny mare felt how her genitalia got warmer.

Knowing very well that she won't get back to sleep unless she fulfills her newly raised desire, Cookie reached out and wrapped her hand around the cock, causing it to twitch a little bit. Her other hand sneaked right between her legs and she began to touch and rub her already wet pussy while simultaneously jerking off her friend's penis. At times though the horny mare would let go of the big black meat and would either play with his massive balls or move her hand across his stomach so she could feel Striped's well defined abs.

This act didn't last for long though and soon Cookie twitched and shivered, as she soaked the cloth around her pussy with her orgasm. She sighed out of pleasure and returned to her spot, unaware of the fact that her friend had woken up.

Just as she rested her head against the pillow, Cookie felt how two strong hands suddenly grabbed her and before she could realise what was going on, Striped mounted her, making Cookie lay on her stomach.

The zebra lowered his head and after placing his hand on her butt, whispered in her ear, "So, you thought you could just tease me and leave me with blue balls? Not a chance, hot stuff. Now for being such a slutty girl, I will punish you."

With that being said Striped tore off a piece out of Cookie's provocative underwear. He made sure nothing was standing in the way between his cock and her pussy.

" H-Hey, that was an expensive- '' before Cookie could finish though Striped silenced her by putting his hand on her mouth and made her suck his middle finger. The zebra squeezed his eventual lover and after rubbing his cock's tip onto Cookie's labia, Striped pushed inside. A loud grunt came out from him as he penetrated his friend's vagina. She sure was tight, but she was also still wet which made the penetration much easier.

Cookie yelped. Tears formed into her eyes as Striped's big black cock stretched her out. Penis with such proportions had never before fucked her and the mare could only hope that her friend would finish soon. But little did she know that Striped had just begun having fun.

At first the zebra's movements were slow and methodical. He knew that Cookie needs to get used to having such a large dick inside of her. To distract her from the pain, he removed his hand from her mouth and cupped her large breasts. He gently squeezed them and once again spoke into her ear. "I never got to know what size your tits are. Would you tell me what cup you're wearing?"

"Ungh! T-They are-" Cookie closed her eyes and clenched her teeth "-a J cup."

Striped lifted up his eyebrow and grinned. "A J you say? Heh, couldn't guess it. What back pain you must have. Ya know, I have to say, seeing such beautiful breasts covered by a cloth really makes me sad. Such fine breasts need to be released out in the open."

With that being said, after another loud rip, Cookie's huge tits jiggled a little bit as they were freed. Striped then groped one of them yet again, this time pinching its nipple. This caused the mare to let out a small vocal complaint.

But her complaints disappeared when Striped began to slide in and out his cock, how much faster than before. The loud clapping sounds echoed throughout the dark room.

Cookie tried to hold in her moans, but she found it very difficult to do so, especially when Striped began to slap her round ass every time he pushed in. The sexually frustrated mare could not hold it any longer and the zebra finally heard her panting and begging for more.

"Askari, don't stop! I want you to fuck me harder, punish me for being such a slut!"

Striped grinned and placed his hand on Cookie's thigh, roughly squeezing it. "Indeed. You are such a slut; you haven't even divorced yet and you are already fucking with somebody else," Striped grunted out as he smacked her ass loudly.

Cookie was close to orgasm again. Once she felt it coming, she decided to inform her lover. "Askari, I will cum, I will-" she was immediately silenced by the zebra though as he, again, placed his hand around her mouth.

"Good for you, Bett, but I am not and I would like to keep going so shut it," he grunted out and forced her to suck on his finger.

Cookie's eyes crossed as she finished all over Striped's cock, making it more slippery and allowing it to ram in her faster and louder.

The sex between them lasted for around 20 or more minutes and as much as Striped wanted to hold on for more, he soon felt the need to release the pressure. Cookie felt how his grip around her waist tightened up and with a loud grunt Striped released his seed inside Cookie's vagina, up the mare's belly. The zebra clenched his teeth and closed his eyes, twitching a little bit before taking out his soaked dick and laying down on his back. He sighed out and wiped his forehead before asking Cookie, "So, how was it?"

"By Celestia-" Cookie tried to take her breath. "I never knew that the sex could be so... Rough, so energetic, so-"

"Amazing," Striped grinned widely.

"Yes, amazing," Cookie repeated with a smile on her face. She got so excited by this that she crawled on top of the zebra and asked him teasingly, "How about another round, big guy?"

At first Striped Fist was surprised by this suggestion, but he found it hard to say "No" to Cookie, especially when her large, melon-like tits swirled above his face. He placed his hands on her hips and responded to her with the same teasing tone. "I can't deny such an offer." His cock raised up, ready to get into action once more.

"You know that tomorrow we need to get up early, right?"

"So you want to stop?"

Striped chuckled and gently slapped Cookie's thigh. "Of course not, Bett. Just saying."

With that being said, the two friends continued their fun throughout the rest of the night.

One not very interesting last day of the vacation.

The morning sun slowly rises up above the sea, its beams awakening the equine down in the valley and those same sun beams soon manage to reach Striped Fist's bedroom. As the room was illuminated, the first one who would wake up was Cookie.

She slowly opened one of her eyes for a brief moment before she closed it and tried getting back to sleep, but then she suddenly felt something. The female unicorn slightly pulled up the sheet and looked down at her cleavage. With a surprise she saw how Striped had her breasts squeezed gently in his big palms. With a slight turn of her head, Cookie got the whole picture. Striped had pulled her into his arms and his front was pressing against Cookie's back.

Under other circumstances Cookie would have probably freak out and would try to run or sneak out of the bed. But instead, the mare simply chuckled and rested her head back on the cushion.

"Celestia, what a night," Cookie yawned and stretched her arms forward. She soon felt how one of Striped's hands let go of her breast and slapped her butt.

"Indeed it was, hot stuff," Cookie twitched a little bit as she felt her lover's hot breath as he spoke into her ear. She then turned around and kissed him lightly on the lips. "You were amazing last night."

"Heh, that's what I always hear. But still, thank you-" Striped rolled on his back, allowing Cookie to snuggle against him. The zebra then placed his arm around her and continued, "-And I have to say, for someone who supposedly hasn't been active in the bed for so long, you sure are one skilled missy," Striped ended his sentence with a chuckle.

Cookie's cheeks turned slightly red and the mare replied with a smile, "Well, if I have to be honest, this was my first time having sex with such gifted lover, if you get what I mean."

"So, this was your first rodeo with a zebra?"

"More or less, yeah."

Striped blinked a few times before he grinned from ear to ear and gently slapped Cookie's butt once more. "If such is the case, then we need to have a LOT of sessions, hehe."

Cookie rolled her eyes in a joking manner and she gave Striped another kiss on the lips.

"So, what's the plan for today, Bett," Striped asked as he rolled out of the bed and stretched up. Cookie scratched her chin and answered unsure, "Well, I suppose we can have breakfast, collect our stuff and prepare ourselves to go. How does that sound?"

"Sounds like a plan, but would you like it if you and I had a small beach visit?"

Cookie thought about it. At one hand she wanted to leave this place as soon as they could in order to catch up to Hondo before he did Celestia knows what, but then again, Cookie realised that throughout this whole vacation she hasn't visited the beach in the slightest except for yesterday but she would prefer to forget about this.

"I guess we could. Although I am not sure if I want to be around other ponies right now."

Striped grinned and without turning around, said, "Pff, who said that we're going to visit the regular beach? I am talking about something else, something that is more of our taste."

"Our taste? Oh, Askari," Cookie thought to herself and slightly smiled, unable to contain her reaction towards this adorable yet awkward comment. She then stood up and after taking a large white towel from the wardrobe, she headed over to the bathroom. But before Cookie walked in, she slightly turned her head towards her lover and asked him, "Askari, darling, can you please prepare something for breakfast while I am in?"

"I can't exactly say "No" to a beauty like you. But I would need something in return," Striped added with a smug face.

Cookie's eyes quickly shifted from side to side, like she was trying to see if there was somebody that was watching them. Slowly, a delightful smirk appeared on Cookie's face as she walked closer to the naked male zebra. Striped scratched his head, but before he could ask the mare anything, his eyes widened as he saw how Cookie kneels down in front of his cock and takes it in her hand.

Cookie licked her lips before she pressed them against the tip of the dick, kissing it and even slightly teasing it with her tongue. After the unicorn was done, she simply stood up and headed towards the bathroom, leaving her friend confused, aroused and in a desperate need of a jerk off.

Cookie poured a good amount of shampoo in her hand and after she left the bottle aside, she began rubbing the sticky substance onto her long grayish indigo mane. As the hot water began pouring down her head and body, Cookie closed her eyes and let it wash out the shampoo. This prevented her from seeing the incoming "threat" in the face of Striped Fist, who just sneaked inside the hot and steamy bathroom.

The horny zebra clutched his unsuspecting lover into his big muscular arms before giving the mare a passionate kiss on the lips.

"I guess you didn't learn from the previous night, Bett. You don't leave the zebra with blue balls."

To this remark Cookie responded teasingly with, "Oh, I guess I didn't. Well, in this case, why don't you remind this forgetful mare what happens when a majestic stud like you is left horny and unsatisfied."

The toothy devilish grin on Striped's face grew even more as he ordered her, "Kneed down then."

Without asking any questions, Cookie kneeled down in front of him, looking directly at the semi erect zebra cock. Striped took his manhood into his own hand and gently slapped Cookie across her face with it. This made both of them chuckle a little bit before Cookie finally took her lover's penis and started rubbing it gently with her hands. The unicorn then looked up at Striped as she opened her mouth and began sucking his tip. The zebra groaned out of pleasure as Cookie opened her mouth wide enough and tried to take in the large monstrosity Askari called cock.

"Ungh, here, let me help you with this," Striped grunted and put his hands against the wall, thrusting forward his pelvis and forcing Cookie to take more of this black zebra cock inside her mouth. The mare gagged on it, her eyes rolling backwards as saliva dripped from her mouth, lubricating the cock even more. Due to the thrusting movement, Cookie's huge tits shook and jiggled up and down and the mare felt the urge to just stick up two of her fingers inside her wet vagina.

Striped Fist gritted his teeth as the shower blowjob continued, thrusting harder and harder inside Cookie Crumbles' mouth. The aroused zebra wanted to cum so bad that he ignored the idea that Cookie might be against ejaculation in her mouth. Soon the halfway taken cock started twitching and Cookie's eyes widened as Striped's powerful orgasm blasted inside her mouth and throat, causing a slight blackout to occur.

Striped slowly slided out his sperm and saliva coated cock and let out a deep exhale. His excited look though soon shifted into worry as he saw Cookie coughing and drooling large amounts of sperm out of her mouth into the syphon. As Cookie looked at Striped, the zebra let out a nervous laugh and scratched the back of his head, feeling ashamed, especially because of the dirty look Cookie was throwing at him.

"Uhh, hehe, oops. Sorry Bett. I will let you finish up your shower."

Striped grabbed a towel and walked out, but before he closed the door, he asked, "So, do you still want breakfast?"

Striped grunted, pushing the clothes with all of his force inside the large luggage bag, trying to zip it . The male equine clenched his teeth as he was cursing silently under his nose and while Striped struggled, Cookie was just sitting on the bed, observing the zebra and wondering if this scene was delightfully comedic or painfully tragic.

After a minute or two and a few glimpses at her watch, the mare convinced herself yet again that the males just can not deal with the luggage properly, she stood up and politely pulled her friend's tail with the words, "Can I try?"

Convinced that he has embarrassed himself enough, Striped stepped away and allowed Cookie to take on from there. The unicorn stood up and jokingly stretched her arms and cracked her knuckles before she took all the clothes out of the bag and proceeded to start from the beginning. Striped crossed his arms and looked aside, believing this would take a while. His eyes opened wide though once he saw how fast Cookie was folding the clothes.

Once Cookie was done, she dusted off her hands and looked at Striped Fist smugly. The zebra simply blinked a few times before he clapped with his hands, praising the mare's skills.

And after the two stopped joking around, Striped took the luggage and then they walked out of the room.

"So, hot stuff, did you enjoy your little vacation," Striped asked teasingly while the pair was waiting for the elevator.

"Honestly, it wasn't that bad. Granted, I didn't expect my husband to pull off such a douchey move, but at the same time I made a new friend and finally had sex after so long."

"Ha, you said it, Bett,-" the zebra laughed out loud as the two entered inside the elevator, "-but in all honesty, I liked it too. All I came here is to simply relax and have fun with the local mares. And by the end of it I not only had fun but also befriended beauty like you," he ended up his sentence playfully slapping Cookie's bubbly butt. The mare snickered and pretended to be shocked by this action.

"You are one nasty zebra stallion, aren't you?"

After Striped left the keys from the room at the reception, he and Cookie made their way outside of the hotel and headed towards the resort's parking lot. As they were moving down the street, Striped bringed into question one of Cookie's troubling thoughts. "Hey, uh, Bett, I know that you probably don't want to discuss this question, but you know you would need a lawyer when you go back to Ponyville."

Cookie nodded and sighed, "Yeah, I know. And it would be rather hard to find a decent one."

"Not necessarily, hot stuff -" Striped grinned "-because I may or may not know a good lawyer who is also a very good friend of mine. And I can arrange a meeting for you and him to discuss your... Whatever you have to discuss."

Cookie's cornflower blue eyes opened wider after hearing this. The mare slowed down her steps as she was processing this information. A few seconds later, a huge grin appeared on her face, but despite the overload of joy, Cookie remained calm and simply said, "Thank you very much."

Once our heroes reached the parking lot, Striped took out his car keys and proudly pressed the button. The loud beeping sound his car made attracted the attention of his new friend.

And even though the large black Jeep was not the type of car Cookie imagined an equine like Askari would drive, it actually suited him in more than one way.

Being the gentleman he was, Striped opened the front door for Cookie and after the mare made herself comfortable, the zebra hopped behind the wheel. He then took the heavy luggage and simply tossed it at the back seat.

"So, what do you think of the old Black Joe," Striped asked with a smirk. Cookie looked around for a brief second before she replied, "He seems nice, although I expected a stallion like you to have more-" she snapped with her fingers trying to think out of the right term.

"Sleek ride."

Striped cackled out loud before he came back with a response, "What can I say, the Ferrari and the Mercedes are just not my type of cars. And besides, they are too small for my taste and I like cars with large back seats for specific reasons. Anyways, next stop, the beach and after that, Ponyville, for some major ass kicking of a certain someone. "

Cookie just couldn't help herself but to roll her eyes in response to this obnoxiously funny comment. She then looked outside of the window, observing the resort as it began to shrink once Striped got out of the parking lot with a few maneuvers. As they got out on the main road, Striped looked towards her and asked, "Hey, you wanna listen to some radio?"

But before Cookie could answer him, the zebra had already turned on the loud rock music which, from the sound of it, was from the 80s. This action at first caused the unicorn to sigh in a sign of annoyance, but looking at Striped and the way he was grooving while driving bringed a smile to Cookie's face and she instead relaxed her head on her hand while looking at the shrinking resort through the window.

The advertisement for this place really kept its promise by saying that the location would bring the spark of joy to anyone's heart.
