Naked Emotions

Astral hauls in the last of his boxes, wiping his brow as he sweats bullets, he pays the movers a hefty sum of bits as thanks as he starts his new life in Ponyville.

He carefully opens a box and takes out his books and places them on a bookshelf he had brought. Most of his belongings consisted of stationary but he had a few mugs to use.

After unpacking all that he had brought with him he took out a pen and paper to jot down what he needed to get, his job as a farmhand had paid him well, and though he wouldn't be living with the Apples, he decided to keep working for them until he is firmly settled.

Taking a deep breath, Astral looks around his new home as his heart pounds in his chest at the excitement and anxiety at living on his own.

Aside from the books, Astral’s new place was rather empty, no furniture or luxuries like tv, or even cooking equipment, just bare cupboards and closets.

Astra sighs as he takes out his money bag and sees how many bits he has, fortunately, he has enough to get a bed and so runs into town to buy one.

After purchasing his bed, he returns to his house and starts moving in the bed, using his magic to carry the heavy furnishing into what would soon be his room.

He gingerly places the bed down and wipes the sweat from his head as he smiles, ‘I can now let the Apples know that I’ll just commute,’ He thinks to himself as he puts the receipt for the bed in one of his books.

Astral spent the rest of the day roaming around town, though he had been here for six months, he only knew of a few places, thankfully he was able to find the bed store, its sign being his only beacon.

He stops at Sugarcube corner and orders a blueberry muffin and black coffee. As he sits down he thinks about what to do now that he is a local, ‘I could turn my home into an observatory, or maybe even build one with the mayor’s permission, I could even charge admission so I can make money on the side,’ he thought to himself as he drank his coffee.

After thinking about it, he decided to put it on the back burner for now. He starts to walk back home when he sees a crowd of ponies cheering. Feeling curious, he approaches the crowd, finding Applejack in the mass and stands next to her.

“Ummm, Applejack,” Astral spoke, alerting Applejack to his presence.

“Oh, hey, Astral, did ya get moved in ok,” she asked as she continued to look ahead of her. Astral looked to where she was staring only to see a bonfire blazing.

“W-what’s going on,” Astral asked, confused at the whole display.

“A pony turned eighteen, when that happens the whole town comes together for a bonfire where the guest of honor burns all of their everyday clothes,” Applejack replied as Astral looked on.

‘So that’s what Rarity meant by burning them,’ he thought to himself as he watched a young stallion throw his clothes into the raging fire.

The clothes almost instantly incinerate as the fire blazes, ponies with extinguishers stand on standby if it gets out of control.

Astral starts to contemplate on whether or not he should burn some of his clothes, but ultimately decides against it just so he would have some just in case, besides, he didn’t bring any clothes with him except the clothes he brought for the six months which now just sit in his house gathering dust.

He watches as the young stallion burns the amount of clothes of his choosing, the ponies cheered for him as they watched the clothes burn.

Astral could see Rarity in the crowd, he knew that on the inside she harbored a little sadness, but remained naked and happy all the same.

After the rite had ended, everypony went home, celebrating the liberation of another pony. Astral on the other hand went to Sweet Apple Acres and informed them that he no longer needed board, but was going to commute from his place.

After he had told the Apples of his decision, he started to walk home when Applejack stopped him. “Wait there, sugarcube, why don’t we celebrate your move to Ponyville by goin’ on a date,” Applejack asked, making Astral blush.

“I would like that,” Astral replied as he went off returning home.

The rest of the day seemed to fly by as Astral waits to pick up Applejack for their date, he picks her up and the two head out, ready to be a real couple.

“So, what would you like to do,” Astral asked unsure on where to go, the downside of being in a small town is that the options are limited.

“Hmmm, we could go bowling or see a movie,” Applejack suggested. “Or I could help you get some things for yer new house,” she said as they walked, seeing a range of open shops.

“I couldn’t ask you to do that, this should be special,” Astral protested only for Applejack to smile.

“Please, I insist, ya need some utensils and other necessities,” she reasoned as Astral finally agreed.

The two went from shop to shop, picking out utensils, plates, cups, and even a fridge.

Astral carried the items they were buying, Applejack was real helpful in picking out items that didn’t break his bank.

The two returned to his house where Astral gently set down the items, releasing them from his magic grasp.

“Now then, let’s get you set up,” Applejack said as she helped him unwrap the packaging and opening the boxes the utensils and flatware came in, she helped him make sure there was enough elbow room as she helps him get his kitchen stocked, while he hovers the fridge into place.

“Phew, there ya go,” Applejack said as she wiped her brow, Astral blushing at how the sweat made her body shiny.

“Thank you, I really appreciate your help,” the unicorn replied as he planted a kiss on Applejack’s cheek. “Once I get food in this place, why don’t you come over for dinner,” Astral asked, making Applejack blush.

“I think I will, that can be your way of paying me back for the help, sweet thing,” Applejack said as she kissed him back intending to end their date there.

“Actually, I do have a bottle of wine, and you did help me get glasses, why don’t you stay and have a few drinks with me,” Astral asked as he started to pour the wine.

Taking a minute to contemplate, Applejack smiled. “I can stay for a glass or two,” she said as she accepted the glass and sat beside him on the floor.

As they sat there drinking the wine, Applejack smiled. “This is really good,” she said as she tried to spark up a conversation.

“Thank you, this is actually my favorite wine,” Astral replied as his heart pounded in his chest.

They sat there for what seemed like hours, drinking the wine until the bottle ran dry.

Applejack became more giggly as she got up and stroked Astral’s shoulder. “Come on cowboy, let’s go for a ride,” she said as she dragged him over to her body, making him blush.

‘A-Applejack,” Astral sais stuttering as his cock began to rise, he wanted to buck to, but not like this, he didn’t want to feel like he had take advantage.

Applejack just smiled as she spread her legs for him and helped him slide in his cock. “It’s ok, sugarcube, I know you want this and so do I, I can tell you’re a virgin, so let’s end that,” she said as she let Astral take over.

Astral started thrusting his hips, his erect cock sliding in and out of Applejack’s wet pussy as they both moaned in unison.

The whole ordeal came and went like a flash of lightning, the last thing Astral saw was Applejack’s pleased face as he fell asleep.

*******************************************************************************************************

A few days had passed since Astral and Applejack rolled in the hay at his place, he remembers both of them waking up and being shocked at what had happened, they both didn't blame each other, but each encounter after that was awkward.

Applejack since then had been acting strange, she seemed to get sick out of nowhere and would be a little irate.

On a clear morning, Astral went to check in on Applejack with a bowl of vegan chicken alfredo only to find her in her bathroom with a pink stick with a plus sign on it.
