Braeburned

There had been three great loves of Braeburn’s life. The first had been a puppy that he’d raised when he was just a young colt. The two of them had gone everywhere until the dog had eventually died from old age. The second had been Applejack and his reconnection with her last night had left him feeling happy in the morning. His chest was matted where his seed and her saliva had dried. A bath washed away the evidence of their sexual encounter. Breakfast was a decent and simple matter with Applebloom trying her hand at cooking. She had not burned anything and it was tasty. She wanted to make apple pancakes and they ended up as mushy and sticky dough balls. Both Applejack and Braeburn at them without complaint.

The third love of his life had been the desert. He was by no means a city pony and in the vast openness of the desert he found himself at peace. There were stretches where the nearest pony or creature lay miles away. There had been a cache out in the middle of the desert that held the most brilliant gems. He’d found it exploring one morning and kept their location a secret. The gems were perfectly cut and had such an intense fire when sunlight struck them that everything around them became dimmer. He’d brought one of the gems with him and it resided in his saddle bag. Last night he would have given it to Applejack. This morning however she acted as if nothing had happened and was friendly but distant. The two of them were about to go into town when Rainbow Dash showed up looking wet and ragged. There was a quick explanation about some errant raincloud terrorizing part of the town. Applejack tossed Braeburn a small package and asked if he’d deliver it to Rarity’s Boutique. The two of them ran towards lightning strikes in the distance after AJ grabbed her lasso. She had apologized before leaving him alone at Sweet Apple Acres. Applebloom had already run off with her friends and Braeburn headed towards the town.

There’d been a time he had worked on the Pony Express as a mail pony. Riding hard between towns before the train had come through and made his job obsolete. After that he turned into a settler pony. He’d be an express pony one last time and galloping as hard as he could he ran into the town drawing looks from nearly every pony he passed. The wind felt great against his face and drum of his hooves echoed the beats of his heart as he exerted himself to get to the Boutique as quickly as possible. He burst into the front doors of the Boutique and skidded to a halt in front of Rarity. She shrieked and everything she had been working on suddenly crashed to the floor. Her magic had disappeared and a dress mannequin fell on top of Braeburn’s back. It knocked off his saddle bags and pinned him to the floor.
“Howdy Rarity, I’m mighty sorry about all this, I wasen’t rightly thinking.” He sheepishly grinned from under the mannequin.
“Oh my dear Celestia how could you frighten me so? It’s a pleasure to see you again Braeburn. I wish it were under less heart attack inducing circumstances.” She panted and patted her chest trying to calm herself.
“I guess being a cultured pony ya aren’t ready to deal with shocks.” He pushed himself up from the floor and righted the mannequin.
“I should say not. Although it wouldn’t be the first time one of you Apples gave me an awful surprise.”
“Oh…?” He adjusted it and turned around raising a brow. “What happened the last time?”
“Applejack kiss… that’s not really important now is it? What can I do for you?” She blushed and took a deep breath.
“AJ dun kissed who?” He raised the other brow.
“Braeburn darling that’s nothing a lady talks about.” She shifted her gaze away and blushed a brighter shade of red.
“Ya can’t be serious. AJ’s a fillyfooler? Well she’s got tastes to be sure but… hot dog. I’d have never guessed.” He stepped over to his saddlebags.
“Mr. Apple I must insist that you not spread this around to anyone. If you can’t be civilized about discretion then I must ask you to leave.” She was about as red as a pony could get.
“Oh I won’t be telling nopony. I really just came to deliver this here package from AJ. She’s busy with Rainbow Dash and she wanted me to bring it to ya.” He picked up the package in his teeth and something moved under it.

He’d never before seen a pony’s eyes become quite that large. Rarity was staring with intense purpose at something just in front of Braeburn’s hooves. A thin ray of sunlight had come through a high window and illuminated the object. He looked down as saw the gem. It seemed to drink in the light and glow brightly. It was clear and shined like the beacon of a lighthouse in the middle of the night. He sat down the package and picked up the gem with his teeth. Out of the sunlight it was simply a clear cut chunk of rock. He slipped it back into his saddle bags and just before he closed the flap a hoof was set on top of his. He looked up seeing Rarity bat her eye lashes at him.
“Braeburn darling… that’s simply the most elegant diamond I have ever seen. I would like to purchase it from you.” She was using all of her charm on him.
“Sorry but it aint for sell. That there’s a special gem I was gonna give to a special pony.” He closed the flap on the saddlebag.
“I am sure we can come to an agreement. I simply must have that as the centerpiece on the new outfit I’ve just designed. It would mean the world to me if you could concede.” She rubbed her shoulder against his.
“It simply aint for sell.” He picked up his bags with his teeth.
“Braeburn…” She purred his name. “I’ll do just about anything for that diamond. I could make you a new vest or perhaps create a dress for your special somepony.”
“I don’t have a special somepony… but ya’d do anything?” He dropped his bags on the floor.
“Just about…” She batted her eyes lashes again.
“Well…” He trotted to the door and locked it then shifted his gaze back to her. “I want ya to show me what ya and AJ did.”
“Oh… but… there must be something else you’d like?” She blushed once more.
“Ya said you kissed. There had to be more to it than that.” He stepped back to her.

For a moment he thought she might kick him out and demand that he never come back. He’d never really acted this way before and he’d probably jumped over the line with her. He was curious as to what the two of them got up to. He was even more curious as to how it worked between two mares. Of course he’d heard stories of mares shacking up and living together but he just thought they were stories told by overeager colts around a camp fire. She took her time debating and finally she leaned in and kissed him. It was light as a feather and barely brushing against his lips.
“Now I know my cousin and that’s not a kiss she’d ever give.” He shook his head.
“How would you know that?” Rarity this time raised a brow.
“She… we… well since ya’ll bein honest it’s not right if I don’t do the same. We were lovers for a time.”
“You… and her… but you are cousins… that’s…” She stammered.
“It aint all that uncommon for farm folk really. Now how about you show me how she really kissed you.”

She gulped and he took a bit of pleasure in her reaction. She steadied herself then full on kissed him. Her lips were pressed hard against his and her tongue licked his teeth. He closed his eyes imagining that it was Applejack kissing him. The two tasted completely different. Rarity was more like marshmallow and cream. She was intoxicatingly sweet and when she broke the kiss he found himself wanting more.
“Are you really going to give me the diamond?” She flicked her head.
“I promise I’ll give ya the diamond after ya show me everything that happened.” He inclined his head and put a hoof to his chest.
“Very well… I’ll trust you just like I trust her.”

She pounced and pushed him onto his back. His hat fell off on the way down and bounced across the hard floor. He was about to retrieve it when he felt her tongue. His green eyes quickly moved towards her face as she licked around the base of him. He had expected more kissing and perhaps some cuddling. Instead she was going all out and his erection couldn’t be contained. The moment he slipped free she took him into her mouth and started rolling her tongue on his shaft. AJ had gone around but Rarity was going up and down. The muscles of her tongue undulated like a snake working his length. He gasped and drummed a hoof on the floor. She released him with a wet smack and licked her lips.

“You’ll understand that Applejack simply does not have one of these. Now be a dear and kindly return the favor.” She shifted so that her rear was towards his face and she straddled his chest. Her mouth went back to encompassing him and he pulsed hard inside of her throat. Rarity hummed and flicked her tail brushing it against his nose. She was presenting herself and he raised his head up. She was so pink around the pure white of her coat. Her opening glistened wetly and he brought his tongue around the edge as if licking the powdered sugar off a donut before entering the hole. She protested and groaned against his muzzle. Her body opened inviting him inside and he darted his tongue against her clitoris. She shivered and took him deep into her mouth.

Where her kiss had tasted like marshmallow, the inside of her body tasted of strawberries and cream. He couldn’t help but lap up every drop she was producing. It was entirely different from an apple. Sweet and tart in the same moment with her milk flowing over his tongue and down his throat. He would have gladly drunk from her for the rest of the day if possible. She bucked her hips against him and he was met with a welcome splash of her tangy cream. Her tail fell over his face and he closed his eyes enjoying the sensation of her hair against his. He explored deeper into her drinking more and more. After a minute she bucked again and her legs couldn’t support her. She fell against him but refused to stop working his shaft. She was fierce in her efforts now and determined to make him come. For every stroke she gave he mirrored her. The two were interlocked and breathing with one breath.

It was not long until he couldn’t contain himself any longer. The buildup rushed quickly through him like a damn bursting and he flooded her mouth with his semen. She gulped mouthful after mouthful while bucking again. He drank her new rush of cream as she came a third time. Even after they were spent and there was no more left to give neither would break the hold. Braeburn kept his tongue inside tasting her every moment as she kept her lips locked around him. Their breathing was slow and their hearts beat in the same rhythm. Rarity was so hot and comforting on top of him.

They wouldn’t have moved if not for a light knock on the door. Quickly she released him with a loud slurp and she stood on shaky legs. He rolled to his belly and pushed up trying to get himself to go back inside. It refused and the knock sounded again. He looked around and snatched up his saddlebags and hat then quickly dashed into the dressing room and pressed himself against the wall. There was a scuffle as Rarity cleared up the evidence of their session then finally after a third knock she opened the door.
“Oh dear Fluttershy… what… to what do I owe the pleasure of your visit?” She was flustered.
“I don’t mean to bother you… it’s just that you said to come… and I wouldn’t have… but… you aren’t busy are you?”
“Busy? Me? Oh no no no… whatever makes you think I’m busy?” She strained a laugh.
“It’s just that the door was locked and… I can come back…”
“Fluttershy everything is ok. I was simply trying out… um… new designs… for… for…”
“Miss Rarity I dun think this’ll work.” Braeburn said from the dressing room while peeking over the door keeping his fifth appendage hidden.
“Really? What is wrong with it?” She turned around and mouthed a thank you to him.
“For one I’m not really a rhinestone type pony.” He turned his attention from Rarity to Fluttershy. “Well Howdy there miss Fluttershy. I aint seen you since Appleloosa. How ya been?”
“Oh… hi... um… uh… Braeburn… I’m good…” She lowered her head and shyly looked away.

He looked down seeing that the door had come open a bit and he was completely exposed. He quickly jumped away from the door and fell over in the dressing room. He scrambled to get back to his feet and hide his embarrassment but he did not dare look over the door again. Fluttershy hadn’t left yet and he’d just stay in the dressing room for the time being. A bit of cloth floated over the door and he wrapped it around his waist. Rarity had levitated it to him and he silently thanked her from his hidden postion.
“Rarity… I’ll… be back… later…” Fluttershy ran out the door blushing the same shade of red Rarity had earlier.
“Fluttershy wait…” She called after her friend but it was too late.
“I’m really sorry.” Braeburn said from the dressing room.
“I suppose it can’t be helped. You can come out now.”

The door opened and he trotted out with the sheet still around him. A promise was a promise and he opened the saddle bag and pulled out the gem with his teeth. He placed it in front of Rarity and shrugged his shoulders. She bent down and levitated it towards a sunbeam coming in from the window. The moment it struck the light it caused her to gasp and Braeburn twitched under the sheet. It had been one of the same sounds she made when she was around him. She slowly turned the gem in the sunlight with a large grin.
“I dun suppose I can stay a bit longer seeing as how I’m not down yet?” He asked.
“Of course you can stay Braeburn. Truth be told I originally started for the gem but you… you’re so… engaging. Thank you for the diamond and you are welcome to come back any time you wish.” She looked down from the sparkling gem and winked at him.
“That’s mighty neighborly of ya.” It was his turn to blush.
