“…And after that, all hell just broke loose that day.” Mark recaps what he said to the 3 mares while playing with the straw of his drink. Soon after meeting at the agreed-upon spot and finding a good coffee shop, Surprise didn’t waste time and asked him to please just continue the story. Something he was still pretty confused about, why were they so interested. In how all of them seemed to absorb every word he was saying. “The royal guards, naturally stand to attention and surround me thinking I was some kind of threat, and in my panic and feeling like I couldn’t breathe, I accidentally shoved/ rammed one into a nearby pillar which just made things worse.”

They gasp at the revelation “Pegasus threw rope at me, and unicorns immobilized me with ice spells, just adding fuel to my terror as I started sending ponies flying everywhere trying to escape until the princess ordered everyone to stop and approached me, she saw how terrified I was.” He looked down with a chuckle. “She probably saved me from spending the rest of my life in a dungeon, that day.”

“Well of course she would know you were scared silly, that is how princess Celestia is.” Surprise giggles before waving her hand rapidly. “Keep going! What happened after that?” She eagerly asks while sucking her milkshake really fast from all the emotion.

“After that, things went by in a blur. After calling off her guards, she approached me and told me that if I calmed down she would let me go, I was unsure but that was better than being an icicle so I complied. She sent me to a guest room to calm my nerves while she sorted that mess out. Later that day I met Twilight and Fluttershy who helped me calm down and figure out what was happening. After the air was cleared I took Twilight's invitation to live in her castle, and well the rest is history, I learned more of my new powers, found a job, got a home of my own, you get the picture.”

“Come on Stars, we all know that couldn’t possibly be the end of the story, so spit it out. What happened after you arrived at Ponyville?” Umbral ask intrigued pointing at him while holding her cup of coffee

“Oh no Umbral, I think I shared more than enough already. Now it’s my turn to ask about you three.”

“He is right Umbral, we have been pestering him into telling us his life story, it will only be fair if we repay him with our own.” Milky reasons with her friends. Making the bat pony shrug and lean back in her chair. “Eh fair enough, fire away Stars.”

“Well I suppose I should start with an easy one, how long have you been supermodels?”

“Oh Milky and I are just part time models” Surprise tells pointing at herself and Milky as she nods “I actually work for a tourist travel agency, mostly doing recon of hotels, malls, parks and other tourist attractions, fill a report and give it to my superiors so they can promote vacation plans for their clients.”

“And I’m a humble milkmare/owner of my own product from Trottingham.” Milky continues, “Surprise and I only model on occasion when we have time with Umbral, for moral support.”

“And because it's fun!”

“As for me, well not gonna a lie it started off as a way to piss off my old man back then when he just keep jabbering about following the family tradition, but then I found myself enjoy the gig so I stuck around and before I knew it I was posing for front pages and perfume ads'' Umbral replies casually. “These two have been my childhood friends since kindergarten so of course I would invite them over for fun from time to time, just as they do for me with their jobs. When we are all together modeling it’s not any different than playing dress up and hey it’s a great way to catch up after being apart for a while.”

“Or have a test vacation/adventure of sorts when visiting new places and meet the locals when helping me.” Surprise adds.

“Or promoting and campaigning my product outside the town” Milky finishes.

“Wow, you three seems to be really close” Mark mentions, impressed on how they found the way to include each other in their working life.

“That's what friendship is all about Marky, finding a way to keep in contact and hey when working with friends, any work looks more like a fun game.” Surprise tells him with enthusiasm.

“What about you Mark? With what you told us, you could have gotten any sort of job, why choose taking odd jobs as a handyman?” Milky questions with interest.

“Well I suppose it just sort of happened, and I’m not so sure you want to hear much about this one. It has a bit of a sad beginning.” He confesses to them with some worry.

“Eh suit yourself, but honestly does it really matter how it started, I mean looked at you? Having a date with three mares at the same time, having a happy life and a stable income? I say you really made whatever happened work.” Umbral mentions pointing at him with her cup once more before taking a sip.

“Ah excuse me…a date?” He asks, unsure if he heard correctly, making her smirk. “Play your cards right and it might be one, so still not want to talk Stars?”

“Umbral don’t pressure him” Milky reproaches her friend.

“It’s ok Milky, and she is right, as sad as it began things turned around so I suppose I shouldn’t feel bad talking about it.” He takes a deep breath before continuing “But it will open an old wound so I will try to avoid some of the details, you see after some time living with Twilight, there was this incident that really bummed my mood, and I mean crash and burn. It was like all the colors just drained away. I couldn’t see anything but gray, I felt horrible and didn’t want to do anything for I don’t even remember how long.”

“Oh my.” Surprise gasps at the confession.

“I just needed to do anything to distract myself, I was completely desperate to just occupy my time. Something to bring some color back into my life so not wanting to mope around in self-pity I took a walk around town until I found this temporary job opening at Sugar Cube corner, moving boxes. I thought to myself ‘why not? The smell could help me forget.” So I took the job and made use of my strange super strength, and the plan worked. Thanks to Pinkie, the bakery smell and me just moving boxes I briefly forgot what happened to me, but then it returned once it was over.

So I kept walking until I found another odd job, then another, and another and so on until I finally came to the conclusion that I like moving around and simply doing odd jobs. I don’t know, I suppose I simply found it fulfilling and fun. That is why I became an extraordinary handyman.”

He ends the story with a smile, only to find his head trapped between Surprise breasts as she at some point just stands up and rushes up to him to bring him into a bear hug with tears streaming down her face. “That is so sad! I’m so sorry you had to pass through that. You are the bravest alien I have ever met!”

“Tha…thank you” Mark reply with a red face not sure how to reply on how close he was now to her boobs

Good God she smells wonderful.

Chuckling Milky and Umbral shake their heads. “Ok Surprise let him go before all his blood rushes south.” Milky comments as the pegasus stands back making all the mares chuckle at his blushing surprised expression.

“Did you enjoy your Surprise pillow?” Umbral asks with a smirk and raises an eyebrow as he only nods before recovering completely.

“A…Anyway that is pretty much how I end up becoming Equestria handyman, it took time but I recovered from the incident and I enjoy the idea of not being attached to just one job so I kept it in order to move forward and even get the courage to try entering the dating game.”

“Ah so you were expecting to turn this into a date then?” Umbral kept teasing him.

“What? No I mean if you like…not that I want to force you or anything but well I…”
Umbral kept laughing at how he kept choking on his own words until Milky shoved her in disapproval. “Stop it Umbral, the poor stallion is doing the best he can, we should be more supportive of him.”

“I was just teasing Milky but yeah I should stop now, and good for you Stars, I bet you will kill it at the dating game, friendly advice? Listen to your mares and play the field a little before deciding on an alpha, trust us you don’t want a crazy mare in your herd” The other two nod at the comment

“Thanks Umbral, I will keep it in mind, but I probably would go slow into this, I don’t know the first thing on dating in general and well, let just say humans have a way different definition of a stable relationship, please don’t ask, it’s a long story.”

“That’s ok, we don’t want to turn this into an interrogation either, say why don’t we forget about all these sad stories and talk about this being a date or not and just have fun!” Surprise suggests. “It is still early and there is plenty more of the town to explore! Marky, you could give us a tour of the place.”

“Actually I have come here…” Milky starts but Umbral stops her “…wait I want to see how this plays out.” she tells in intrigue as Mark shrugs.

“I like that idea actually, I know one or two places we can check out” Mark says, standing up and paying for his drinks, the mares soon doing the same, as they go explore the rest of the town.

“Then it’s decided, let’s go see what this town has to offer.” Umbral smiles and takes the lead as Milky rolls her eyes and plays along half curious on how things will develop, a certain mint and light yellow couple of mares unable to stop the smirk of happiness as they continue drinking while looking at the group leave.

And so the rest of the day the four of them decided to simply cut loose, and explore the town with various activities like bowling, sightseeing at the park, a petting zoo for kids, and watch magic tricks from Trixie, as she performs for an audience, not caring for anything anymore and simply enjoying each other’s company. Once sunset arrives they decide to call it quits, and Mark accompanies them back to the hotel they were staying. Where they say their goodbyes with Umbral shaking his hand and Surprise blindsiding him with another firm hug imprinting his face in between her breast once more before giggling and skipping as she went to her room.

Ok that is twice now, she must be doing that on purpose

Mark thought as he recovered, and was preparing to leave when Milky stopped him by grabbing his shirt.

“Mark wait, before you go there is something I need to tell you”

“Yeah?”

“Listen, putting all the teasing and joking aside, I really think it's really brave what you are doing. I mean when I started dating, the whole concept was terrifying, so I dread to imagine what it must be like for you”

“I thought this wasn’t a…”

“Oh come on Mark, we both know it was, we only said that to help you relax, and it worked right? You weren’t tongue tied, you showed us a good time and to be perfectly honest. I really appreciate all the effort you put into not being a pervert, no matter how much Surprise tested you.”

“Wait! That was a test?!” He ask in disbelief as she tries to calm him down

“Yes it was, and you have all the right to be mad at us because of it but please try to understand, Umbral, Surprise and I…it not easy for any of us to try to date, I mean Umbral is just a bucket list score for most ponies or a shallow price or accessory with other models, you see how Surprise can be a bit intense and me well, look at me” She extend her arms bend forward so Mark could had a clear view of her breast making him blush and look away. “I’m not blind Mark, yes I have a slim body and huge breasts. I have had them since I was a teenager. Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a nice stallion or mare that doesn’t want me just because of them, and all they see is Milky the ‘busty’ mare?”

“I…I think I have an idea yeah.” Mark says looking at her again with sadness and pity as she stands straight once more. “And I imagine being models didn’t help on the matter?”

She nods twice “That is why we needed to make sure you were different, that you actually care for us, and not just for how we look. Which you did.” She smiles and grabs his hand. “No matter what Surprise did, or how much Umbral teased you, you never once took advantage of us, you legitimately were considerate of our feelings, and were interested in knowing who we were, you treat us as friends and not even once, not even when Surprise keep pushing your face into her chest did you stop viewing us as such. You truly are a marvelous human being Mark”

He couldn’t help but to blush at the compliments “I simply treat you with the respect you deserve that is all.”

“That is all I ever wished to have and for that I’m thankful, Mark listen, if you don’t want to consider this a date then that is fine by me. We can view it as just a hang out with friends, I just wanted to say my piece, and if later you want to have a proper date with any of us, we will always be a call away”

She let him go and turned around preparing to leave when Mark extended his arm “Milky before you go…”

“Yeah?” She look at him with curiosity

“If…if this was indeed a date, would it be too bold for me to ask for a goodbye kiss before ending it? A quick one on the lips? I will even put my arms behind my back if it helps!”

She looks at him in surprise before smiling and chuckles at that. “That will not be necessary after that trick. I believe you were entitled to fondle my girls but if all you want is a kiss, I don’t see the harm”

She looks at him with half lidded eyes and approaches him once more. “I had a good time Mark.”

“Me too” Mark tells her now more relaxed as they hug and hold each other's cheeks before sharing one quick kiss which lasted longer than expected before they break apart “I had a great time” Milky says kissing him again.

“We should repeat it some time.” Mark says before repeating the action, as she hums in approval as they start to close their eyes and openly make out with more intensity until their tongues find each other snapping them back to reality as their eyes wide in realisation of what they were doing and how their hug was turning into caressing each others bodies.

Slowly pulling away Mark broke the kiss as they both looked at each other in surprise. “Wow.” That is all he could say in response. Snapping back to reality, Milky’s eye widened again and stood back to look away and clear her throat “S…so it’s getting a bit late.”

“Y-yeah, I–I should be going then.”

“Yeah maybe for the best so eh…here is my phone number.” She quickly handed over/pushed a piece of paper into his hand, before rushing inside the hotel room. As Mark recovers and heads back to his home, to take an ice cold shower, ignoring complete how Milky was doing exactly the same thing in a vain attempt to get the image out of her head of the kiss they shared and the reaction it had on her loins.
