The Fire Maned Pegasus of Cloudsdale

How in all of Equestria could you be so lucky? Seriously, it’s almost incredible; the absurd amount of luck that you have. Here you are, in Las Pegasus, sitting in the honeymoon suite of The Big Apple Hotel, waiting for Spitfire to be done with her shower, so the two of you can proceed to have your first night together as husband and wife. The lights and sounds of the city rumble through the windows, faintly rocking your eardrums.

It’s been two weeks since you went on vacation with Spitfire, turning that weekend getaway into a long journey around Equestria. You have been to Manehattan, Appleoosa, jumped the Galloping Gorge, swam in Neighagra Falls, and now you are in Las Pegasus.

It was during your swim in Neighagra Falls, when you first proposed to her. You didn’t have a ring to give her, but you did the whole kneeling down thing and everything, promising that one day, you would be able to afford the ring that she deserved. This mere gesture was more than enough to reduce her to tears, jumping on top of you, saying yes, and then proceeding to make love to you in the water. That was an interesting time.

Not wanting to waste any time, it was Spitfire who came up with the idea to get married in Las Pegasus. You were certain that she would want a big wedding, with a chapel, an ordained priest, friends and family alike, gathering together for this occasion, but she said no. You were literally, but not unwillingly, dragged to the city of Las Pegasus, and the two of you were married the instant you arrived.

The chapel was actually very pretty looking, and the priest looked like an actual priest, not a pony dressed up as a celebrity, like you have seen in other Las Pegasus chapels. After the vows, the two of you had a nice picture taken, framed up, and given to you.

Sitting on the couch, you turn the television on to the news show Access Applewood.

“Welcome back to Access Applewood” the Newsmare says, “Today in celebrity gossip; has Spitfire, world famous Captain of the best flying team in Equestria, finally tied the knot? According to our sources, she has.”

A blurry photograph, of you and Spitfire leaving a chapel expands into view. It’s a really terrible picture. Whoever photographed it must have really had a shitty camera.

“One eye witness has seen Spitfire leaving a small chapel in Las Pegasus, with the still unknown Pegasus. As you recall, this particular stallion has been seen side by side with her for almost two years, but nopony has ever discovered his true name. Rumors surrounded him that he was Spitfire’s new coltfriend, after the famous separation from her fellow Wonderbolts teammate Soarin. We looked for answers back when he first appeared, but those who knew of him denied that he was in a romantic relationship with the Captain.”

The footage switches to archival footage of Thunderlane and Surprise hanging out at a café, when the Cameracolt rushes to them, shouting questions, startling them out of whatever conversation they were having. This was the first time you noticed that they appeared to be dating on the side. That seemed like a news story in and of itself.

“Surprise! Thunderlane! Who is this mysterious Pegasus that Spitfire has been seen with?”

Surprise laughs, “He’s just a friend of hers.” she explains, “She saved his life a couple weeks ago, and now they are spending some friendly time, with one another. That’s all.”

“Thunderlane!” the Cameracolt turns to him, “What do you have to say?”

“Nothing worth saying.” he says, “Do you mind?”

The footage goes back to the Newsmare, shaking her head and smiling at the footage. They always seemed so happy when watching footage of agitated celebrities. It’s really quite disturbing.

“We also attempted to talk to her ex-coltfriend Soarin for a response, but he was less that welcoming to our reporters.”

At the corner, is Soarin pushing the Camera away from him, while the Cameracolt continues to be as invasive as ever.

“Soarin! What do you say to rumors that the mysterious Pegasus is Spitfire’s new coltfriend?! Does that make you jealous?!”

“Get that damn camera out of my face!” Soarin yells, hitting the camera so hard that it breaks into a static mess. This makes you chuckle. Coincidentally, that Newsmare chuckles again. This broad is a strange one.

“Of course, opinions about this new face changed over time. According to the new footage that we have obtained, Spitfire’s teammates are now happy to have heard the rumors.”

Surprise and Thunderlane are in the training field, looking happy together, with smiles on their faces.

“They got married?!” Surprise says in…well…surprise.

“Yes.” says the Cameracolt, “If the rumors are correct, Spitfire and the Pegasus had tied to knot early this morning, in Las Pegasus.”

“Oh my gosh! That is so awesome!” She hugs Thunderlane, “I’m so happy for them!”

“Yeah.” Thunderlane smiles to the camera, “Good job, buddy.”

The footage goes to Soarin, just as he is finished being told the news.

“I have to say, it’s been a long time coming.” he nods his head with a grin, “Spitfire always thought he was the one, and I’m happy the two finally admitted it to each other. It wasn’t easy; trust me, I know. Now…get that camera outta my face!” he pushes the camera away.

“Looks like it’s all sunshine for this happy couple. Coming up, our interview with the first human in Equestria, and his recent marriage to…“

You turn the television off.

Soarin was right; it really was a long time coming. If you had your way, and if romances were just like the movies, you would have popped the question that day in the hospital, when you opened your eyes to see her beautiful face.

Who would have thunk it, that the two of you would be married, nearly two years after that fateful day, when a stupid mistake, became one of the best things to happen to you?

Not me…and I’m your brain! Imagine that, your own brain telling you that you had no chance in hell with her. Sorry about that buddy. Truly, I am. I’d shake on it, but…you know.

“Hey you.” That familiar voice echoes into your ears. Turning around, you see her. Spitfire; staring at you with the sultriest of eyes, wearing a fetching see through negligée. “You like what you see?”

“Wow.” you exhale, “I believe you know the answer to that question.”

“From the look on your face, I sure do.” she giggles, trotting over to you. She lies down on the couch, resting her head on your lap. “What were you watching?”

“Access Applewood.”

“I’ve been on that show a couple times. Anything interesting?”

“It appears that news travels fast around here. Somepony took a crummy photo of us leaving the Chapel.”

“How crummy of a photo are we talking?”

“Blurry, pixelated. You could barely tell it was us.”

“Well, they were going to find out at some point.” She brushes a hoof against your leg.

"They interviewed your team. They seemed happy for us. Did you know that Surprise and Thunderlane were dating?"

"Of course I did. They've been an item ever since he joined the Wonderbolts."

"I did not know that."

"The signs were there." she says.

Thinking back...no they weren't. They hid their relationship from you pretty well. Sure, they had their moment when they were pretty friendly with each other, but never anything more serious than that. It was quite interesting, actually. Nevertheless, you are happy for them.

“Sorry to keep you waiting." she snaps you out of your thoughts, "I hope I didn’t take too long.”

“No, not long at all.” She did take a really long time, but you didn’t really mind. Mares are known for taking an extraordinary amount of time in the bathroom. “You look beautiful, by the way.”

“Thank you.” she raises up, showing a blush on her face, “I wasn’t sure if you would like it.”

“A see through negligée? On the most perfect body I’ve ever seen? What’s not to like?” You silver tongued devil you.

“Seriously dude, how you never had a marefriend with that talk, is beyond me.” she chortles, “You’re quite the smooth talker.”

“I wouldn’t say that.” you blush, “But something about you seemed to unleash the beast in me.”

“I’ll bet. All the times that we made love in the past couple weeks? I have to tell you, it has been pretty wild.” she laughs.

"You're just saying that to make me feel better."

"I am so serious right now, it ain't even funny."

"Oh really? How was it with Soarin?"

"Okay...I can admit, he had his strong points, but he was also a very...'one and done' kinda colt, if ya know what I mean. It takes a lot for you to back down."

"So...boom, and he was done? No foreplay, no oral, just...sex and that's it?"

"Yep...that was it."

"And here I was, being intimidated by nothing." you scoff, "I could do better than that."

“And you did." she caresses your waist, "You are something else, you know that?”

“No. But I’ll let you in on a little secret...”

“What?” she leans in to hear it.

“Did you know…that I’m the luckiest Pegasus in all of Equestria?”

Spitfire pushes you with playfulness. You push her back. The two of you continue this, until your expressions turn into something else. Something a little more…lustful.

She smiles, caressing your cheek. Slowly, she moves her way onto you, straddling your lap, putting both hooves on your face, leaning into for one of her amazing kisses. Ever since that night, when you two officially consummated your relationship, your technique has become perfect. You know what she likes, and you have been exploiting that ever since.

She moans as you play with her tongue with yours, and guide your hooves along her body, feeling every inch of her. The outfit she’s got on is smooth, and very sensual.

You two break away, her smile staying on her face.

“You don’t mind that we got married here, do you?” she asks.

“In Las Pegasus? No. I don’t mind at all. I was surprised that you wanted to get married here.”

“What makes you say that?”

“A big time celebrity like you? I always thought of you as the extravagant type, when it came to weddings.”

“I like small weddings. It makes things more…personal. Not to mention that it’s cheap. Don’t need things like rings, or something.”

“I will get you a ring one day, Spitfire. I promise you.”

“I don’t need a ring to know how much you mean to me, nor I to you.”

“Okay. Then how about I go to a toy machine, and get you a plastic one?”

“Deal. I’ll get you one too.” The two of you have a good laugh. “You’re wrong about being the luckiest Pegasus in Equestria, though.”

“How come?”

“Because that title belongs to me.”

“I doubt that.” you smirk, “You already have the title of best Flyer in Equestria. At least give me this one.”

“Awww…” she playfully says, “Alright, fine. The next title we throw around, though, that’s all mine.”

“Done.” You kiss her again. She chuckles at the kiss, and you move your head down a bit, rubbing yourself against her chest, feeling the fur on your cheeks. You move a hoof down to her finely tuned stomach, and prod at it with a giggle, before kissing it. You look up, but then, something changes on her face. The smile that she was displaying has disappeared. She looks down at her stomach, rubbing it, with a sad expression. “What’s the matter?”

“This is all…so great.” she looks into your eyes, “I just wish that I could give you something in return.”

You can tell that she’s referring to her being infertile. That she cannot create life, has been torturing her all this time, treating it like an open wound that will never go away. You couldn’t bear to see her like this. She has always been a strong mare, stronger than you will ever be, but whenever she is down on herself…it breaks your heart.

“Hey,” you take her hoof, and put it on your cheek. “Don’t talk like that. You’ve given me everything I could have asked for. A friend, a loved one, a wife, all rolled into a perfect package.”

“But…I’m not perfect. I can’t…” her eyes water, “I can’t make us a family.”

‘Spitfire…” you gently wipe a tear from her eye, “Don’t cry. If you cry, you’re going to make me cry.”

“I’m sorry…” she smiles through the tears, “But you’re going to have to deal with it.” She laughs.

“I can’t imagine how hard it must be for you, but that doesn’t mean we can’t have a family. There are plenty of options.” You see her ears perk up. “We have adoption, and we have surrogate mothers…”

“Oh no, I’m not letting my husband put his seed in another mare, no way.” she says sternly, but with a smirk and a chuckle.

“I had a feeling you would say that. There’s also the kidnapping option.”

“Oh, shut up!” she laughs, pushing you against the sofa.

“I’m kidding, of course.”

“Sure you are.” she says, ”Adoption doesn’t sound too bad, though.”

“Exactly. And you can pick whatever foal you like. A colt, or a filly. A Pegasus, a unicorn, or an earth pony, anything you want.”

“Definitely a Pegasus. And it’s going to be a girl.” The idea is starting to sound more enticing to her.

“You got it. A filly Pegasus it is.”

She shakes her head, looking at you, smiling.

“Why must you have such a good outlook on things?”

“Believe me; I’m not usually like this. Like…at all.” You’re right. You’ve been such a negative one for most of your life; the fact that you’re giving her positive thoughts is absolutely strange to you. It’s…kind of nice, really. You can get used to this positive outlook business. “Don’t you worry about a thing, Spitfire.”

“I’m sorry.” she says with her head down, “This is supposed to be our honeymoon, our wedding night. You’ve waited so patiently for me, and I’m wearing this outfit, which I picked just for you, and now I’ve gone off and ruined it with my problems.”

“No. You didn’t ruin it. You didn’t ruin anything, as far as I’m concerned. We were going to talk about this sooner or later. Might as well have done it sooner.”

“But, that’s not what ponies do on their honeymoon.”

“Then, let’s change that.” Swiftly, you pick her up with your forelegs, carrying her all the way to the bedroom, with the massive bed shaped like a heart. She laughs the entire way, flailing her legs, and flapping her wings with glee.

Once you get to the bed, you toss her on it. She backs up to the headboard, beckoning you to come over to her. You crawl onto the bed, making your way towards her, until finally, you loom over her.

“Hey…” she says, “I thought you liked it when I’m on top.”

“You’re right. I do.” you smile.

She grabs you by the shoulders, moving you onto your back, as she gets on top of you. She looks down at your smiling face, with her very own smile. She leans down and gives you a passionate kiss.

“I love you.” she whispers, “I love you so much.” She kisses your neck.

“Why do you love me?” you ask. She stops at your chest, looking up at you.

“Well…” she smirks, “You’re nice…” she kisses your chest, moving upwards. “You’re funny…” she kisses your neck, “You’re amazing in bed…” she kisses your cheek, “and you’re the best thing that has ever happened to me.”

“Hey, I’m supposed to say that about you.” you chortle, “Stop stealing my material.”

“I’m not finished yet, dude.” She prods your shoulder. “I haven’t even gotten to the best part.”

“Okay.” You prepare yourself for it, “What’s the best part?”

“You were always there for me.” She leans down to your face, getting up close and personal with you. “You were a great friend…my best friend. You were there to cheer me on at the shows, you were there to make me feel better when I was down, you were even there to take care of me when I was sick. Why do I love you? Because you are…in every way…perfect. Even if you don’t think so…I think so.”

“Wow…” you are in awe of her, “That’s good enough for me.”

“I figured it would be.” She kisses your forehead, “So, are you ready for this?”

“I’m always ready.” You say with slyness, as she leans down to give you another kiss. “Oh, and Spitfire?”

“Yeah?”

“There’s something else I want to tell you. I wanted to say it a little earlier, but my thoughts got in the way.”

“What is it?”

You look into her eyes. In that moment, you imagine what life will be like with her. What it will be like, when you two are finally able to start a family. You think about what the filly will look like, what her name will be, the days where you two will take care of her. You never thought of yourself as a fatherly type, but you can probably get the hang of it.

Most importantly, you imagine what the rest of your life will be like with Spitfire. It will be filled with happiness, filled with laughter, sometimes with sadness, but in the end, everything will be as wonderful as is has been since the first day you met her. She is your very special somepony, and you plan to spend the rest of your days, making her the happiest mare in the world.

“The thing is…I love you, too.”

She smiles.
