Its been sometime since ben moved in with twilight. He was thankful to her and her freinds. During this month he started hanging with each of them.
Pinkie was a party girl for sure in bens eyes yet despite how silly she acted ben started becoming more curious. Turns out pinkie was way smarter then he thought. When his party finally came up she went all out. All sorts of different smoothies lined the tables an a massive basket of chilli fries just for him. Well technically they were chilli hay fries. And the chili was 100% meat free. That said it was probably the best thing hes ever tasted.
Applejack and rainbow were also pretty fun. Applejack offered him a part time job on the farm. Provided he didn't use any of his aliens. That was fine by him. He liked having a secret identity again. Plus the work was oddly rewarding. Rainbow dash on the other had would drag him out to practice with his aliens. Well four arms an xlr8 anyway. He didn't wanna break out two many aliens at the moment in case someone started thinking that alien were invading. Mostly as a green pony named lyra keeps trying to snap pics of his forms. Luckily she hasnt figured out he was the aliens.
Still Rainbow was getting a good laugh out of the fact a rumor spread that shes training monsters as part of her wonderbolt training. He wished he was doing nore then just training. Sadly a lack of crime met a lack of hero time.
He had rairty come vist him a few time insisting on making him clothes. He tried denying her but gave in. That mare was determined to say the least. In the end he relented and model several outfits for her.
He didn't want to admit it but he honestly enjoyed trying the outfits. He ended up keeping a jacket that reminded him of his lucky one back home. Green with a number 10 patch on the back. When he wasnt out with one of them he also enjoyed having tea with fluttershy at the castle.
Apparently her roommate was abit messy so she perfured to have tea at Twilights. Since twi didn't mind neither did he. Of course it was also end up with fluttershy asking to see rath. While ben was hesitant he couldn't resist her puppy eyes. Its been awhile since someone weaponized cuteness against him.
Lastly was twilight. He sighed thinking about her. It wasn't that they weren't freinds but the two had a hard time talking to each other. Sure she would sometimes interview him which was fun. He got to tell stories about himself and watch twilight in awe. But others times the two couldn't look each other in the eye. Even though its been a month since the last dream. A feeling of sadness an regret tugged at them.
But ben realized that there was another feeling. When they sat an read in the library. Like butterflies in his chest. Of happiness. But also confusion. He knew she was feeling it to. The way she smiled at him for no reason then looked away in shock. It was clear something was going on.
One morning he made his way downstairs were he saw spike still chewing on dimondheads crystal. Hes Actually managed to chomp his way through half of it now. Plus according to twilight hes never looked better. His purple and green colors were more vibrant then ever. Apparently a single shard of petrosapian crystal could keep a dragon fulled for months. Or two for spike.
He waved his hoof at the dragon who waved back. Ben then made his way outside towards the new an improved suger cube corner. The only change being they added a large list of smoothie flavors thanks to one pinkie pie. Pinkie apparently wrote down every drink hes ever told her. Considering how often he complained about missing Mr Smoothies she was more then happy.
When she showed him he cried tears of joy." Pinkie I could kiss you!" His comment had brought both a smile an a blush to the mare. He Chuckled thinking back at that memory. Once he made his way inside he walked right into one of the booths. Sure he could wait in line an order something but he knew the moment he sat down pinkie would appear allready having gotten his order. One smoothie of any flavor and a blueberry muffin.
"Hi benny! I got your grasshopper smoothie all ready for you!" He laughed taking the drink in hand. Or well hoof. He really tried his best not to think about how hes able to grab stuff.
"So ben how are you enjoying ponyville? It has been a month." Ben chuckled at her question.
"Pinkie you ask me that every time I vist you and my awnser is always the same. Yes but its mostly because of you girls." She pouted at him slightly disappointed but not suprised.
"Ben why? There are so many kind ponies in ponyville! You need more freinds then just us! I don't want you to be lonely." Her lips quiver at the thought of ben being all alone.
He took a sip of his smoothie enjoying the chocolates and grasshoppery goodness. He honestly cant believe only he and griffins ever get this smoothie. "Pinkie I don't need a bunch of friends to not be lonely. The six of you are more then enough for me. Plus me an spike hangout from time to time." Her expression changed looking bashful.
"Well I guess thats ok...but what about you and twilight. Have you guys ya know...talked?" He sighed the awnser was clear. If there was one thing that they never discussed it was him an Twilights feelings. Him an twi avoided that coversation like there lives depends on it.
"We can't right now pinkie its painful for us right now. Once the princesses get here then we will see." Pinkie justed sighed. Looking down. Seeing him an twilight suffer through this has been hard on her."
"Hey would you feel better if I showed you a new alien." He lean in and whisper to her. Her frown disappearing and filling with excitement. He smirk knowing his idea worked plus he knew the perfect alien for Pinkie. But just as he was about to suggest they go.
"Can I have three grasshopper smoothies? Oh that was quick thank you." The voice it couldn't be. He turned walking away was a dark purple unicorn with an orange mane. Her cutie mark a small cat symbol.
Pinkie yipped as ben ran out of the booth. Not knowing what else to do she followed him. Even as he knocked into several ponies she followed. When they reached outside he couldn't spot the mare. He did see rainbow land not far from him.
He ran up to her in a panic with pinkie in tow."Rainbow! A purple mare just left sugercube corner with orange hair. Her cutie mark was a cat faced symbol. Where did she go!" Rainbow wings went pomf again apon seeing ben. An occurrence that happened so often with her fluttershy and twi he barely paid attention to it.
"W-why would I know that!" She yelled out defensively. Ben gave her a good long look.
"Because we both know when your not working or training you come here to check out flanks of passing mares." He said it so bluntly rainbow was taken back. While her eyes drifted to his flank an the omnitrix cutie mark. She sighed relenting.
"Well not just mar-oh uh she was heading towards the everfree that way!" As she pointed in the direction the mare went ben took off. Feeling to embarrassed to stay here she decided to follow along with pinkie. Meanwhile ben kept running looking frantically around him.
"Where are you! Fuck no! I know it was you!" He yelled to himself confusing the mares behind him. He was about to give up when he felt it. A pull. A small spark of magenta light in the woods. He desperately headed towards it even as pinkie and dash called out that it wasn't safe. He didn't care.
He started to slow as he got to a clearing. There she was. The mare. Green eyes looking down at a smoothie. Behind her was a beat up looking R.V. Ben felt his eyes tear up. It was her. "Dweeb?" He called out as he stepped forward.
The mare gasp her own eyes starting to water. Her smoothie falling to the floor."d-doofus?" She called back her voice quivering slightly. Ben felt a smile form onto his face.
"Gwen!"
"Ben!"
The two charged at each other as the mares showed up. At first they thought it might be an attack. Rainbow dash tensing up. But she calm when the two hugged each other openly crying.
"Gwen I thought I would never see you again!" His voice radiated a sense of relief as he hugged her tight. Here she was safe and sound.
"I know I thought the same. I missed you ben. When I woke up an couldn't sense you I-I thought you were dead." Her tears openly flowed as the two slowly started to calm down. The two mares behind him starting to feel a little jealous.
"So ben whos your friend here?" Rainbow asked the distain in her voice poorly hidden.
Ben didn't seem to notice as he slowly pulled from gwens.
"Girls this Is my cousin! The one ive told you all about! Shes here!" Rainbowdash gasped. They had infact heard of her. Ben had mentioned several time of his super powerful cousin.
Pinkie ran right up to her."Omc! Your gwen! Like the super magical hero Gwen! Ben told us all about you!" She practically squealed in excitement. Rainbow awkwardly approached feeling abit more shy. Mostly because she did in fact check out the ass of one of her freinds family. To be fair shes checked his out as well. Several times. A week.
Gwen laughed lightly. "Oh heh not sure what Ben said but. Im just your typical girl just you know half alien." Ben blew a raspberry at her.
"Bullshit! You help saved the wold like a dozen times with me. Your the greatest cousin in 5 galaxies!" Gwen chuckled unuse to getting such praise from ben. As he was about to retort the rv door opened.
"Now what in gods green earth is going on out here?"
"Yeah some of us were trying to fuckin sleep!"
The first one was and older stallion with a tan coat an with graying hair. Yet she was in surprisingly good shape standing around bigmacs height. His cutie mark was a small cartoon ufo. Lastly he had two large wings. Next to him was a shorter stallion. He had messy black hair an a grey coat. A x shaped scare present on his chin. His cutie mark being a wrench.
The two stopped eyes opening wide when they saw ben. Ben eyes started tearing again."kevin? Grampa?" His voice was all the proof they needed as max hugged his grandson. Kevin stood next to them. Attempting to look cool. Ben eached out an forced him into the group hug with him grampa an gwen.
"Its good to see ya sport."
