From Free Tears to Bound Joy

Cadance looked up from her breakfast the next morning, a smile on her face though she looked a little out of it. "Hey Flurry, how'd you sleep?"

Flurry looked at her mother shyly before taking a bite of her waffles. "Good" she managed to let out quietly. She looked guiltily at her father after she said it.

Shiny smiled at his daughter before taking a nice bite of his eggs. "So I understand you and Marble got a little bit handsy and kissed while you were dancing? Was the dancing that good or was it that boring that you ended up kissing to distract yourselves?"

Flurry's face turned beet red. "Th-th-that good" she managed to squeak out. "She told you?"

He nodded while taking another bite. "Yup, while she was walking back she texted me." He patted her wrist "communication is important in any relationship, after all." He looked down at the local newspaper and brochures he'd snagged from the lobby. "So, any thoughts on what we should do today? Can go shopping, go to the local amusement park, a botanical garden, walk the boardwalk, or go fishing." He peered over the brochure some more. "And that's just scratching the surface. They've got a pinball museum and foals ocean science discovery institute." He flashed his daughter a cheeky smile at that last one. "I'm sure that last one would be right up your alley, Flurry."

"Da-Datolite!" she quickly corrected. "That was barely my thing when I was a filly, let alone now!" She snagged the brochure, and began to look at what was available. "How about we explore the town some and do a little shopping? We can even decide on where to eat and if we want to go dancing again dance tonight."

Cadance nodded. "I think I'll sit out on dancing tonight, but you and Lite can dance together. I go drinking and dancing two nights in a row and I always end up with a hangover that lasts for about a week."

"And that's why Marble never could have made it in the military. Drink three cups of coffee before role to shake off the hangover, then after the shift is over drink till you slosh. I can't quite keep up with the lieutenants and corporals like I did in my younger days, but I can still drink any major under the table and be ready to run three miles the next day." He bragged before adding "though I don't do that much anymore because Marble would kill me if I did it more often than when my buddies come into town."

Cadance glared at him. "Yes I would, which is why you're not going to be drinking anyone under the table while we're here" she seethed.

He gave her a sloppy salute. "Yes ma'am, understood ma'am" he snarked back. "I will not drink the town dry and then go searching for more."

"See that you don't"

Flurry and Cadance stood in two separate changing rooms, trying on new dresses. "So Datolite knows and doesn't care that the two of us made out last night. How are you feeling about it, Marble?"

Cadance tested the fit of the little black dress before answering. "I feel fine about it. We drank, we danced, and we kissed. Should we have necessarily done that? Probably not, but I stopped caring what everyone else thought when everyone was giving me crap for being into a nerd." She waited for a moment before adding. "Well, I care what you think, but that's besides the point."

"I think I liked it, and there's a part of me that wishes I had gone further." Flurry shrugged herself into a royal blue number, wondering if it would clash with her hair. "But I'm also glad we stopped where we did. I don't think I'm ready to fall into anyone's bed just yet, let alone yours or Da-Datolites."

"That's fine, Flurry. If you find that you do, just let us know. Though I expect Datolite might end up trying to repeat last night's adventure. I suggest you let him, he's an excellent kisser."

Flurry let out a nervous giggle. "I just might let him. He's such a handsome stallion, after all."

Cadance laughed right along with her. "That's the spirit, Flurry. Show him what you can do!"

Shining and Flurry walked inside the Prench themed club, the bouncer happily having taken Shining's money to get them in just a little bit faster. Shining wore a pair of gray slacks and a black top, both of them loose enough to allow movement but tight enough to show off his still excellent musculature. Flurry, on the other hand, was wearing a white tight blouse with a black mini-skirt. The two of them stepped up to the bar and Shining looked down at his daughter with a smile. "So I'm thinking I'm going to go with a corpse reviver, get a little absinthe in me, but what should I get for you, my snowflake?"

Flurry jumped at the name and gave her father a stare. "What kind of name is that for a drink?" She looked around, and spotted someone else's familiar-looking drink. "And I guess I'll have a manehattan."

Shining gave their order to the barkeep, paid, and handed her drink to Flurry before sipping his own. "Delicious, how about yours?"

Flurry kept on sipping at hers. "It's good, but I'm curious what yours tastes like with a name like that." When given a sip, a curious expression came across her face. "It's like someone dropped licorice inside a margarita!"

"Yup, and that's why I like it. Sour softens the licorice flavor but mixes in wonderfully. I discovered this in a dive bar in Canterlot while on leave once. It's why your mother doesn't allow absinthe at home, as I'd drink it all the time and be about as wide as I am tall." Shining explained before adding "well, not that bad. But yeah, I like it too much to have it at a moments notice."

"How very responsible of you both." Flurry replied dryly while still sipping her drink. "Looking forward to dancing?"

"Absolutely, from the way Marble talked, you dance like you were born to it, like it should have been your mark." Shining replied as he continued working on polishing off the drink. "I'm glad your mother made you take lessons."

Flurry blushed through her grin "me too."

Soon enough, the two of them finished off their first drink and made their way to the dance floor. Rather than the thumping beat of the previous night's club for their first song of the evening, the two of them ended up with a sweeter, lighter melody with Prench lyrics punctuating the song. The two of them started to dance, and then noticed how all the other dancers were beginning to become more mechanical in their movements. "Flurry, you know anything about this?"

She shook her head as the light melody started to build up, getting louder and higher, while the mechanical motion became more pronounced. "Maybe everybody else knows the song?" She began to copy them, unsure of where this was going.

Shining followed her example, as the song kept on building and building. "Feels like something crazy is going to happen when the climax to this song comes." He added as the song reached the end of its high-pitched crescendo. A moment of silence followed, before a staggering base drop hit the entire club like a sonic hammer, causing all the dancers to drop into a squat in ragged unison. After the drop, everyone began to dance far more fluidly, before winding back up between mechanical and another drop.

The song eventually ended, and Flurry and Shining looked at each other than laughed. "I was not expecting that in the slightest." Flurry said as the next song was downright normal by comparison.

He moved in closer with a smile. "Yeah, me neither, but that's fun if hard on the knees. I don't think I want to dance much to songs like that if I'm expected to almost do a burpee with it."

"I thought PT was supposed to be fun, though" she teased while dancing with him. "Are you saying that you've been lying at all those recruitment speeches?"

He gave her a shark-like grin. "Oh, it is fun, for sure. But that type of fun is closer to sadism or if you enjoy a runner's high." He spun with the music before continuing on. "And while I can certainly enjoy both, I still don't enjoy what burpees do to my knees."

Flurry reached down and grabbed her father's butt with both hands. "But they do such amazing things to this ass of yours. Are you saying that making your ass look amazing isn't worth it?"

He bent forward and gave her a quick, teasing kiss and then backed away. "Maybe, but I still don't like my knees to bitch at me."

After several hours of drinking and dancing, and several more kisses, Flurry and Shining finally made it back to the hotel. Shining lost his shirt immediately upon entering, and helped Flurry remove her blouse before pulling her on top of his lap. "Now then, my giggly mare, I'm going to do something I've wanted to do all evening." Shining said as he looked into the eyes of the bra-clad mare straddling his lap.

"Oh? What's that good sir?" She said while batting her eyes at her father. "What could a fine upstanding gentlecolt like you possibly want with a demure maiden like myself?" she slurred.

He reached up with both hands and caught her face with his hands before pulling her gently towards his own face, his lips softly colliding with hers. Slowly, softly he kissed her lips, tongue and lips exploring the sensitive flesh.

Flurry moaned and opened her mouth, trying to entangle her tongue with his, a futile struggle as he avoided her searching tongue with his own while continuing to explore each and every millimeter of her lips with his tongue. An avoidance that began to frustrate her after a time as she let out a whine from deep in her throat.

Shining responded by starting to nip her lips while continuing to avoid her tongue. While he kissed her, he reached behind her back and undid her bra. Gently pulling it forward, he began to cup the barely uncovered breasts of his filly as his tongue finally found hers.

Flurry gasped and whined as her father used his mouth and hands to play her like a master musician would. Flurry's body was so much like her mother's that it allowed Shining to build her up further and further with nary a fumble. Finally breaking the kiss, he moved down her jawline to the hollow of her neck, where he began to kiss and lick at the tender flesh.

"Oh, oh Daddy!" she gasped as she felt several of her buttons being assaulted by the expert technique of her father. A practice that he kept up longer and longer, trying to bring his little girl to a peak with just her breasts and his mouth. A peak that she kept building towards. With a cry of pleasure, the young mare creamed in her panties as her father bit down on her neck, sending her over the edge.

When she finally came down, she crawled off her father, seeing the mess she had made of his pants. "I... oops?"

Shining's pants shimmered in the light from her leaked-through juices, while his erection stretched against the fabric of his slacks. "There's no oops about it, Flurry. I wanted you to cum, and you staining my pants like that is a perfectly natural response to what I was doing to you." He stood up to give her another gentle kiss. "In fact, I consider it a badge of honor."

Flurry nodded, then reached for his belt, which he moved away from. "Shouldn't I get you off for this, Daddy?"

Shining shook his head. "Your mother and I will put this to good use, but I want the first time I get off with you to be with your mother joining us as well."

Flurry looked around, and into her parent's suite room. "Where is she exactly? I don't see her in your room."

"I think she went down to the hot-tub, so either there or the pool for a late-night swim. So don't worry about me, honey, I'll be fine." Shining said as he picked up her blouse and bra. "Is there anything I can do for you before I go to my room?"

Flurry put the blouse back on but left off her bra. "Well, I think I'd like to cuddle for a while, if that's alright."

Shining smiled, and pulled her to him as he sat back down on the couch. "Cuddling I can do."
