“Spurious”

“To not be true or authentic.”

“Correct. Perfidious.”

“When someone is intentionally unfaithful.”

“Yep. Euphemism.”

“Ummm…a vague idea that’s meant to be interpreted as harsh or explicit.”

“Eh, close enough. Penal.”

“Peni-uh, er…”

Sunset Shimmer snickered, Twilight snorted, and Flash turned bright red.

“Were you really about to say penis?”

Flash, somehow turning an even deeper shade of red, slammed his hands on the table and bolted to his feet.

“Sunset!”

Quickly remembering that they were in a library, Flash lowered his voice and sat back down.

“Can you not say words like that in school?”

His girlfriend just rolled her eyes but still kept her playful smile.

Flash Sentry, Sunset Shimmer, and Twilight Sparkle were all sitting in the library at Canterlot High School. They were studying for an upcoming vocab quiz which had been given to them by their teacher Mr. Discord; who is also their theater teacher and part-time janitor, but that’s unrelated.

In the past, Flash would normally just study with Twilight. However, as their relationship snowballed into the affair it is now, it became pretty clear that they would do anything but study whenever they were alone. And while Twilight may not have any issues with her grade, Flash was definitely starting to struggle. Which is why this time, Flash brought Sunset along to act as a buffer between the two.

But it seems he’ll still have a hard time getting any work done, even with his girlfriend present.

“Alright fine. So, what does Penal actually mean.”

“Uhhh…”

Flash looked over to Twilight, silently begging for a hint or clue. Alas, much like when she and him were in bed, her lips were locked tight. Flash, unable to think of anything, gave a defeated sigh.

“Pass.”

Sunset frowned at how easily her boyfriend gave up.

“Come on, at least guess. Saying any answer is better than no answer at all.”

“Well…”

“And don’t say cock, this time.”

Flash stumbled over himself as both Sunset and Twilight grinned at Flash’s embarrassment.

“I-just…you-…”

The young man let his head fall onto the table in exhaustion.

“I give up. This is just pure punishment at this point.”

“Correct.”

Flash raised his head.

“Huh?”

“You were correct. Penal means punishment.”

Flash stared at his girlfriend incredulously.

“…For real?”

Sunset nodded, giving her partner a bump on the shoulder.

“Yep. See what happens when you at least try.”

Twilight, engrossed in her book, adjusted her glasses before commenting.

“Penal does mean punishment, typically in the case of a crime or a just sentence.”

Sunset smiled mischievously as she pawed at Flash’s thigh.

“Like beastiality.”

The young woman couldn’t help but snicker as all the color drained from Flash’s face. However, her enjoyment wouldn’t last long as Flash quickly delivered his comeback.

“I can say the same for you, my little pony.”

He thought for a moment before adding,

“Actually, you’re technically way older than me too, aren’t you? So that makes you a zoophile and a pedo.”

Sunset leaned in, resting her elbow against the table and her head in her hand.

“Oof. Touché, Baby Girl. What happened to getting all bashful at the mention of the word ‘penis’?”

Flash leaned in, their noses just centimeters from each other.

“The gloves came off when you started teasing me, Sunny-Side.”

The two shared a laugh, Twilight rolled her eyes at the affectionate display between her best friend and secret lover.

No one was a stranger to the history between Flash and Sunset, when Sunset Shimmer had first arrived in the world she took every possible opportunity she could to gain power. One of those opportunities was of course Flash Sentry.

Of course, Flashy was no fool to Sunset’s schemes. Granted it took him a while to get out of his “I can fix her” phase but he got there in the end. Only for another magical horse princess to come along and do in mere minutes what he couldn’t do in a year.

But the silver lining, turns out that Sunset still had feelings for Flash. After committing to being a human full-time and making the human world her newfound home, Sunset decided to take the plunge and date Flash again; for real this time. And it worked, in every possible way except for one.

There were of course mixed reactions from everyone about the new old couple. Mostly from their close friends, there were a lot of positive remarks such as “Took you two long enough”, “I thought you too were still dating”, and “I’m so happy for you two goobers!”.

Of course on the opposite side were the less supportive people with remarks such as, “Isn’t Sunset technically a horse?” “Isn’t Sunset like 30 years older than Flash?” “Can’t Sunset do a lot better than Flash Sentry?”

Flash and Sunset, not ones to shy away from such vicious rumors, addressed them all head-on. Even though most people were not convinced by them. But in the end, they didn’t care.

Sunset Shimmer, technically, biologically, physically, and mentally was a human woman of consenting age. Sunset Shimmer was also the same age as Flash. While she may have been a pony in the past didn’t affect the fact that she was 100% human now. Both Sunset Shimmer and Flash Sentry cared for each other and were in a, somewhat, healthy relationship.

The tender moment between Flash and Sunset came to an end as Sunset’s phone suddenly vibrated in her pocket. She quickly pulled her hand away from Flash’s and retrieved her phone before quickly scanning the message she received. She quickly stood up as she gathered her things.

“Sorry, gotta go.”

Flash, startled by how quickly Sunset was leaving, protested.

“What? Why? Is everything okay?”

“Everything’s fine. I just got a text from Starlight about some progress made on the magic device we’re working on.”

“The one to help locate magical artifacts?”

Sunset ruffled her boyfriend’s hair.

“Gold star for you, for paying attention.”

Flash shifted uncomfortably in his chair, hesitating to even dare protest.

“Are you sure it can’t wait?

“Oh, I’m sorry baby. But this is really important. Besides, you can study with Twi while I’m gone, right Twi?”

Twilight gave Sunset a thumbs up.

Sunset put a reassuring hand on Flash’s shoulder

“You’ll be fine. Besides, Twilight’s… slightly smarter than me. I’m sure you two will be fine without me.”

Oh, if only she knew. She probably would, given her mind-reading superpowers, if both Flash and Twilight weren’t wearing tinfoil to guard from Sunset’s telepathy.

Flash attempted to protest,

“But, I-“

But it was of no use as Sunset was already halfway out the door.

“Great, thank you for being so understanding. You’re the best boyfriend ever. Loveyou,bye!”

And with that, Sunset Shimmer left the library. Leaving Flash Sentry and Twilight Sparkle all by themselves. Flash slumped in his chair, a defeated sigh passing his lips.

His secret lover, having not looked up from her book since they all sat down, finally cast her gaze on Flash.

“Trouble in paradise?”

Flash closed his book and stuffed it in his bag.

“I’m not in the mood, Sparkle.”

Flash stood up to walk away but was dragged back to his seat by Twilight’s magic. His chair spun to where he was now face to face with Twilight. The young woman took hold of Flash’s hands, caressing them softly, and looked Flash right in his cornflower blue eyes.

“Flash, it’s me. You know that you can talk about anything with me.”

Flash avoided Twilight’s eyes, knowing full well that he’d lose himself in those beautiful violet eyes.

“I don’t want to talk about my…frustrations. I just want to study and get my grade back up to where I had it.”

Twilight released Flash’s hands, her magic took hold of his vocab book and levitated it right into her grasp.

“Then we’ll study. If that’s what you want, then that’s what we’ll do.”

Flash frowned at Twilight and crossed his arms.

“Really?”

“Really.”

“Really?

“Really, really.”

“Because, last time I checked, you and I have a history of our study sessions…”

He paused, and scanned the area to make sure there weren’t any eavesdroppers before leaning in close and whispering,

“Devolving into us doing the exact opposite of studying.”

“Come on, we can be left alone for a little bit without divulging our affair.”

Flash raised a brow. Twilight waived Flash’s skepticism by starting with the next term on the vocab textbook.

“Cunctation.”

Flash refused to answer.

“Come on, Flash. Remember what Sunset said about at least trying to answer?”

Flash responded with a flat and unamused tone.

“I’m not falling for it.”

“What?”

“Cunctation isn’t a word.”

Twilight blinked in disbelief. She stared at the vocab list in her lap and then back to Flash.

“Yes, it is.”

She held up the textbook for Flash to see.

“See?”

Flash leaned in to examine the text and was surprised when he read the term for Cunctation out loud.

“A delayed action…really?”

He leaned back in his chair, still in disbelief.

“But it sounds so much like…”

He shook his head.

“Never mind, just continue.”

Twilight read off the next word.

“Cock-“

Twilight turned the page.

“-le.”

“…A sea clam.”

“Huh?”

“Cockle, it’s a sea clam. Right?”

“Oh…right, yes!”

Twilight’s face suddenly became flushed. Upon closer inspection of the list of vocabulary words given to them by their teacher, she could understand now why Flash’s mind went to a lot of dirty thoughts when heard. Even she was starting to imagine some rather explicit things when her gaze came across their innuendoes.

“Um…”

Twilight shuffled in her seat, legs pressed tightly together as she shifted.

“T-the next one is Rectory.”

Flash coughed, rubbing the back of his head in embarrassment. He crossed his legs.

“Um…the residence of a clergyman or priest.”

“Good, next is masturbate-MASTICATE.”

Twilight coughed, trying her best to brush off her grammatical mistake.

“I meant to say masticate.”

Flash blinked, his gaze fell to Twilight’s breasts and he unknowingly licked his lips.

“Ummm…it means to chew up food before swallowing.”

Flash suddenly felt an uneasy tightness in his pants.

“Uh…Twilight.”

“Just a sec.”

Twilight swallowed, her mouth salivating as though she had a juicy steak right in front of her. She loosened her collar, attempting to cool down her suddenly hot body. Was the air conditioner suddenly malfunctioning?

“Right…Titular.”

Flash growled, his hands balled up into fists. His breathing was starting to become ragged.

“Twilight.”

Twilight adjusted her glasses as they started to slide down her slick nose.

“L-look I know how it sounds, just…just…”

Twilight struggled for a moment. She found herself stealing glances at Flash, the same way she used to before the start secret relationship; With eyes of lust and desire. With disintegrating self-restraint, she did her best to keep her eyes glued to the book.

“It has to do with a formal position.”

The answer came spilling from breathless Flash’s lips

“A…a formal position held b-by someone without any…any authority.”

Flash’s body was tense, it was as though he was holding back the weight of a school bus. Desperately, he softly cried out.

“Twilight.”

His pleas fell on deaf ears as Twilight continued down the list, oblivious to her actions.

“Correct, next one. Tease-hole-“

“Twilight!”

Flash grabbed Twilight by the shoulders and pulled her close, sweat was starting to form on his forehead. His voice was low, but Twilight was able to understand him clearly.

“Get your…m-magic…off of my…dick…please.”

Twilight blinked. Then looked to Flash’s crotch where she saw that a purple aura had engulfed it. She looked at her hand to see that it was, in fact, also glowing that same purple aura. Her face turned a deeper shade of crimson as realization dawned on what had been happening.

While reading those words, she was subconsciously getting Flash off.

Twilight quickly dispelled her magic, Flash breathed a sigh of relief as his privates were released from Twilight’s heavenly grasp. Apologies started spilling out of Twilight.

“Ohmygoddess, Flash I’m so sorry. I didn’t realize what I was doing. It was just…those words and…and you and me and I just…I must’ve started to…I didn’t mean to.”

Flash did his best to get his breathing under control. But despite his best efforts, his hungry gaze drifted south from Twilight’s loosed collar to her breasts. His gaze lingered there far longer than they should’ve, if Twilight was paying attention she might’ve chastised her partner. Twilight paused her rambling apology as their gazes met.

“Flash?”

Flash didn’t answer, his eyes locked on Twilight with primal hunger.

“Flash? Are you okay-EEP!”

Twilight yelped as she was hoisted from her seat and pinned to the bookshelf behind her. Flash slammed his lips against Twilight’s, who happily and helplessly succumbed to his kiss. Flash’s knee rose to Twilight’s privates, which she ground against his knee.

For a brief moment, Twilight’s senses returned to her. She remembered how exposed they both were and the trouble that would happen if anyone saw them.

Twilight shook her head to break the kiss. Quickly giving Flash a comforting kiss on his cheek before moving up to his ear.

“Not here. T-there too many people.”

Flash tightened his grip around his woman, looking her straight in the eyes.

“Where?”

Twilight did her best to think, but it was difficult on account of being mesmerized by Flash’s beautiful blue eyes.

“I-it would have to be somewhere private. Somewhere no one else would be at this time.”

Flash took notice of his suddenly moist knee and, by extension, Twilight’s moist panties.

“And somewhere we can clean up.”

It didn’t take long for the two to figure out the perfect location. At the same time, they gave their answer.

“Locker room.”


The girls' locker room was the best place for the two since there weren’t any afterschool P.E. activities happening. Flash and Twilight exited the library together, Flash’s hoodie wrapped around Twilight’s waist to cover the very noticeable wet stain on her skirt.

They arrived at their location rather quickly, thanks to having power walked the whole way. Twilight went in first, taking a quick scan to make sure that the locker room was completely empty. Once she had confirmed that the room was empty, she sent Flash a text to give him the all-clear.

Flash received the text, and after making sure no one would see him, quickly ducked into the girls' locker room. When he had entered, Twilight had already stripped off her clothes and was wearing nothing but her white bra and panties; her hair was down and her glasses lay atop her discarded clothing. Flash froze in place, even though he’d seen Twilight naked plenty of times, she was still gorgeous enough to make his brain short-circuit at the mere sight of her exposed flesh.

Twilight saw that Flash was doing nothing but staring. She loved the infatuated look on his face every time, but now wasn’t the time to stand around gawking. Time was of the essence, just because the locker room was empty now didn’t mean they were completely private. Anyone could walk in unannounced and discover the secret affair between the two.

For some reason, the thought of being caught made Twilight a bit excited.

Twilight’s magic took hold of Flash’s clothes. In an instant his shirt flew off, his shoes walked off of his feet, his jeans fell to the floor and slithered away, and his socks shot off his feet. Flash now stood in the locker room in nothing but his boxers.

Twilight approached Flash, hands behind her back and looking at him expectingly. Flash, quick to get the memo, reached around Twilight’s back and unhooked her bra. It didn’t fall off completely but sagged around her supple breasts. Flash’s hands took hold of Twilight’s panties and Twilight took hold of Flash’s boxers. Their lips met as they both simultaneously shed the final pieces of their clothing.

Twilight’s body shivered from the sudden cold air of the locker room. She pushed herself against Flash, whose own body was now covered in goosebumps in reaction to the cold air. An idea popped into Twilight’s mind. She stepped back from Flash and took his hand. She guided him to the showers with a giddy smile.

The showers at CHS were horribly outdated. Not like modern school showers, which were private stalls each with their own shower, the showers were four steel poles with a faucet on each side. Thanks to Twilight’s magic, all sixteen shower heads rattled to life as water rained down.

Twilight took a step into the downpour of the showers and instantly jumped out of it.

“GAH! Cold!”

Flash caught hold of the leave girl, staggering back a little. When the two regained their balance, Twilight clung tightly to Flash, her boobs pressed against Flash’s chest. His cock pulsed against Twilight’s pussy lips. The heat returned to their bodies, their eyes met, and a soft smile grew on both their lips.

Once more, Twilight took Flash’s hands and pulled him with her into the cascading showers. The water had warmed up slightly, no longer cold enough to douse Flash and Twilight’s burning desire. Twilight’s back was pressed against the steel pole, her arms wrapped around Flash and his arms wrapped around her. They kissed again as their bodies were pelted with warm water that was starting to get hotter.

Twilight took hold of Flash’s erect member and lined it up with her wet entrance. Flash, without warning, thrusted into her.

“MmmmAHH!”

Twilight shouted, causing Flash to freeze in place. He went pale upon realizing what he’d just done. He profusely began to apologize as he started to pull out of Twilight’s tight, wet pussy.

“Oh shoot! Twilight I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean-“

Twilight pulled Flash closer, pushing his retreating penis back into her. Her hand cupped Flash’s cheek and gently caressed it. With panting breath, she reassured Flash,

“I-it’s…it’s okay, I’m okay. It was just sudden, is all.”

Flash tenderly rubbed Twilight’s back.

“Are you sure?”

Twilight nodded. Once more, she wrapped her arms around Flash. After licking her lips she looked Flash dead in the eyes.

“Fuck me.”

Flash nodded, pushing himself deep into Twilight until he hilted inside of her. He slowly pulled out until nothing but his cock’s head remained inside before pushing himself back in. His thrusts were slow and gentle, eliciting soft moans from Twilight.

It was sweet that Flash was trying to take things slow, but time was of the essence here, and Twilight needed to get off as fast as possible. She tightened her grip around Flash and leaned in close to his ear.

“H-harder.”

Having been given the green light, Flash adjusted his hold on Twilight. One hand firmly grabbed her butt and the other slid under her leg; raising it slightly. He thrusted harder and deeper into her, slowly finding a solid rhythm.

Twilight moaned and panted as Flash fucked her. She pushed back a little, using Flash’s shoulders as support as she started to move her hips to match Flash’s rhythm. Twilight’s breasts bounced with every thrust, much to the delight of Flash.

“F-Flash I’m…I’m c-close!”

Flash could feel himself nearing his end as well, it was at that moment he quickly realized he wasn’t wearing a condom.

“Oh s-shit. Twilight!”

Flash did his best to hold it back but there was no stopping his climax. He gritted his teeth as he used all his might to pull out of Twilight’s tight pussy. Thankfully he made it just in time. Twilight screamed as she came, a rivulet of juices spilling down her leg. Flash gasped as he climaxed, shots of cum sprayed against Twilight’s stomach.

Flash and Twilight slid down together, their bodies crumbling from exhaustion. They leaned against each other for support, completely drenched from the still-running showers. They clung to each other tightly, their racing hearts pounding in harmony with one another. The two didn’t say a word, only panting as they stared at each other with hooded eyes.

With a flick of her wrist, all of the showers turned off from Twilight’s magic. When the two had finally caught their breath, Twilight looked down to the small pool of cum dripping from her belly. Twilight examined herself closely, Flash waiting with bated breath.

“I think…”

Twilight began, pausing for a moment just to be sure.

“I think we’re okay. I don’t feel any of it inside me.”

Flash breathed a sigh of relief. He covered his head and ran a hand through his hair.

“Thank goddess. That was way too close.”

Twilight used her magic to collect Flash’s cum into a white ball that she levitated over to drain.

“Yeah, that was-“

“TOTALLY THE BEST PRACTICE WE’VE EVER HAD!”

Flash and Twilight froze, their eyes wide like deer staring at headlights. The doors to the other side of the girls locker room burst open as an enthusiastic Rainbow Dash strode in.

“What do we do?”

Twilight, her voice also barely a whisper, responded,

“I’m thinking.”

“I thought no one was supposed to be in here?”

“They aren’t. Rainbow must’ve done some magic training with girls without telling me.”

“Oh great. Just our luck.”

“Hello? Is someone in there?”

The timid voice of Fluttershy was enough to make Flash and Twilight jolt. They could see the shadow of the animal lover start to stretch larger and larger from the shower entrance as she began to slowly enter the showers. With quick thinking, Twilight grabbed one of the spare towels lying around with her magic and wrapped herself in it. Stepping out from her hiding spot into the entrance, she causally waved a friendly hello to her fellow friend.

“Hi, Fluttershy.”

Twilight’s shaky voice cracked slightly, but Fluttershy was too startled to notice it. The timid girl let out a sharp “EEP” at the sudden appearance of Twilight.

“O-oh…hi Twilight.”

Twilight gripped the edges of her towel, doing her best to cover her naked body.

“Sorry, didn’t mean to scare you. I was just…nervous about showing myself.”

Fluttershy quickly apologized.

“No, no! I-it’s okay. I know how you feel.”

Applejack peeked her head into the entrance.

“Oh! Howdy, Twi. Didn’t see ya come in.”

Pinkie and Rainbow joined as well, Pinkie was carrying Twilight’s discarded clothing. She bounced up to Twilight and reached out Twilight’s clothes, which the young genius quickly grabbed, muttering a soft “thank you”. However, Pinkie held something behind her back.

“Hey, Twily.”

Pinkie rocked back and forth from the soles of her feet to the tips of her toes.

“I gotta reeeeeeeally, quicky question for ya.”

Twilight slid her glasses back into place.

“Uh…sure.”

Pinkie pulled out Flash’s hoodie from behind her back, displaying it for all to see.

“Why do you have Flashy’s hoodie?”

Shit.

Twilight went pale as every brain cell in her mind worked overtime to come up with a reasonable explanation. Thankfully, being the super genius she is, it only took her a few seconds to come up with one.

“Well, uh, you see…”

Twilight took a deep breath and collected her thoughts before proceeding.

“Flash and I were studying in the library together and I accidentally spilled my drink onto my skirt. Flash was nice enough to lend me his hoodie while I changed into the spare clothes I have here.”

Pinkie squinted at Twilight, who nervously squirmed under her friend’s inquisitive gaze. In a heartbeat, Pinkie went back to smiling as though nothing was out of the ordinary.

“Okie Dokie. Makes sense to me!”

Twilight Breathed a sigh of relief. Which was short-lived as Pinkie pulled out Flash’s jeans.

“And what about Flashy’s jeans?”

Shit!

“W-well you see, the drink also spilled onto Flash’s jeans. So I offered to clean them here since it was my fault.”

This time all the girls stared at Twilight with incredulity. Applejack scratched her head before speaking.

“So, wut, Flash is wandering around Canterlot without his britches?”

Twilight was quick to respond.

“He changed into his gym clothes.”

Another pause, another look of incredulity. Pinkie broke it once again.

“Okie Dokie. That makes sense.”

Twilight sighed in relief once more.

“And Flashy’s boxers?”

SHIT!!!!!!!!

All the color drained from Twilight’s face as Pinkie produced Flash’s boxers, holding them high for everyone to see. All eyes were glued to the boxers, expressions mixed between shock, disbelief, and disgust.

“Uh…”

Twilight was drawing a blank, completely caught off guard by Pinkie waving Flash’s underwear around as if it were a national flag. Genius though she is, there was no lie she could think of to get herself out of this sticky situation. Thankfully for her, she wouldn’t have to think of one as Pinkie burst out into a fit of giggles.

“Just kidding!”

Applejack gave Pinkie a flat look.

“Seriously, sugar cube?”

Pinkie nodded, holding the underwear right up to Applejack’s face. Whose face scrunched up at the uncomfortable proximity of the boy’s briefs.

“These aren’t Flashy’s boxers. The bulge is too small.”

Twilight frowned.

“Flash isn’t small-I MEAN, YES! T-there’s no way those could be Flash’s, heh-heh.”

Twilight rubbed her arm, failing miserably at appearing nonchalant before her friends. Thankfully for her, her friends were none the wiser. Rainbow Dash pushed Pinkie back.

“Well whoever's they are, it’s still gross that they’re in here.”

Pinkie tossed the boxers to Rainbow.

“Aw come on, it don’t bite.”

Rainbow’s reflexes picked the worst time to kick in as she instinctually caught the boxers.

“Gah!”

She quickly threw the underwear to the floor, shaking her hands and sticking out her tongue to express her grossness.

“Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew!”

Applejack scolded the Pink menace. Pinkie ignored her friend’s judgmental gaze and giggled with mischievous glee. Rainbow groaned.

“Ugh, now I really need a shower.”

Rainbow Dash pulled her sweat-stained t-shirt over her head, tossed it aside, and made her way to the showers. Before she could enter the showering area, Twilight quickly rushed to block Rainbow’s path.

“W-wait, you can’t go in there!”

Rainbow raised a brow.

“Why not?”

Twilight hesitated, struggling to find a good enough excuse.

“There’s, um…no more…hot water?”

Rainbow just shrugged. Moving around Twilight, she continued her path into the showers.

“That’s fine, I prefer cold showers anyways.”

Twilight once more blocked Rainbow’s path.

“A-and there’s no soap either! The staff must’ve forgotten to restock, or something.”

Once more, Rainbow sidestepped Twilight and entered the showers.

“That’s fine, not like I’m going on a date or anything. Just need to wash off is all, it’ll be a quick rinse.”

Before Rainbow could even catch a glimpse of the naked Flash, hiding in the corner of the room, she was pulled back by Twilight’s magic.

“And there’s no more fresh towels!”

Twilight prayed that that was enough to deter Rainbow away from the showers. Thankfully, it was.

“Aw, seriously?”

Rainbow Dash groaned as Twilight nodded frantically. Rainbow huffed, shoving her hands into her pockets she made her way back to the lockers and retrieved her shirt.

“Man, that really stinks.”

Pinkie quickly chimed in with a giggle.”

“Actually, it’s you who stinks Dashy.”

Rainbow Dash stuck her tongue out at Pinkie.

“And I know exactly who to blame for it. It was seriously not cool of you to do that, Pinks.”

Pinkie saddened, quickly putting on her best puppy dog eyes.

“I’m sorry. Buy you some ice cream at Sugar Cube Corner?”

“Deal.”

Pinkie’s happiness returned with a vengeance.

“Yippie! Come on girls, next round is on me.”

Applejack tipped her hat.

“I could go for a scoop or two.”

As the girls made their way out of the locker room, Fluttershy lingered behind when she noticed Twilight wasn’t following them.

“Are you coming with, Twilight?”

Twilight waved nervously.

“You girls go on ahead. I’m still getting dressed and I don’t feel comfortable changing with other people around.”

Fluttershy gasped, covering her mouth.

“Oh! Of course, I completely understand. Feel free to join us when you’re ready.”

With that, Fluttershy departed, leaving Twilight by herself in the girl’s locker room (Except for the naked boy hiding in the showers). All of the weight slipped away from Twilight’s shoulders as she finally took a real sigh of relief this time.

She quickly collected all of Flash’s clothes and her own before entering the shower where she gave the naked boy his discarded garments. After putting on his underwear, he spoke while hopping on one leg as he struggled to pull his jeans back on.

“That was way too close.”

Twilight put her clothing back on as well, avoiding making eye contact.


The two swiftly exited the locker room after they were certain that no one was around. They didn’t so much as say a word to each other as they exited their school and entered the parking lot, where they made their way to Flash’s car.

It wasn’t until they got to Flash’s car that Twilight spoke up.

“Hey, um…how’re you feeling?”

Flash looked to Twilight with a raised eyebrow.

“Seriously?”

Twilight’s gaze fell to her feet, shame written all over her face. Months of careful planning and evasion to ensure that no one would find out about their secret. And all of it was nearly undone because of her magic. However, Flash, being the saint he is, couldn’t bring himself to stay mad at Twilight.

He walked over to her and wrapped her in a tight embrace, Twilight buried her head in his chest.

“I’m not mad at you, Twi. It was an accident.”

“An accident that almost exposed us.”

Flash rubbed Twilight’s back in gentle strokes, giving the distraught girl comfort. He pulled back a little, just so he could meet Twilight’s gaze.

“Let’s just promise that we’ll never let something like this happen again, okay?”

Twilight nodded.

“Okay. No more sessions by ourselves at school.”

Flash corrected in a scolding tone.

“No more sessions anywhere our friends will be hanging around.”

Twilight nodded.

“Of course, absolutely.”

Flash stepped away from Twilight and opened his car door.

“Good. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a long night of studying to make up for.”

Twilight stepped a bit closer to Flash, standing on her tiptoes to be level with him.

“See you tomorrow?”

Flash’s heart melted from Twilight’s puppy dog eyes. He bit his lip and, after making sure the coast was clear, stole a quick peck on Twilight’s lips.

“Tomorrow.”

With that, Flash drove off with Twilight waving goodbye. She sighed happily as she watched Flash’s car shrink in the distance. Once it had fully disappeared, she made her way to her stored bike.

As Twilight unlocked her bike, she thought of how she should spend her upcoming evening with Flash. Since he seemed so eager to study, perhaps she could make a strip tease game out of a study session. Or have him memorize vocabulary words as he makes out with her. Or maybe even have him write the vocab words on her body with his tongue-

Twilight shook her head to clear away such depraved thoughts, a fierce blush blossomed on her cheeks. Just what in the world was wrong with her? It was as though something new and primal had awoken in the young woman. Could it have been because of their time in the shower?

No. Surely not. It was just a one-time thing, nothing more. A lapse in judgment, an accident. There was absolutely, positively, certainly, no way that something like that would ever happen again.

Right?
