"Love."

As Luna pulled out the moon in the clear night sky, Cloudfire slowly made his way to the Hooves residence... determined. He'd felt bad about the way he'd been treating his Special Somepony Derpy, and was mulling over in his mind just the way to have the exact same conversation she was planning on having with him later that night. It was time to just be honest and put things on the table, and that was all there was to it. He was sure he'd feel better after that... but would she?

He could always fall back on the gifts he'd brought -- tied to his saddlebag he had a green balloon for Dinky, in his teeth a red rose he'd purchased from June Bug... if that didn't make Derpy laugh, he didn't know what would.

Surprisingly, showing up on the doorstep with a smile on his face and rose in his teeth didn't make Derpy laugh at all. She looked miles away. Meekly she excused herself, heading upstairs to put it in a vase. Cloudfire silently observed her behavior...

After the ivory Earth Pony gave the other, more delighted young pony her gift, the whole family sat down for a quick and scrumptious dinner. Derpy sat silently as they ate, getting passing glances from both her father and Cloudfire.

"You're quiet tonight," said Daddy Hooves.

Derpy just mumbled in response. Her concerned boyfriend, sitting next to her, rubbed her back soothingly.

At the end Cloudfire thanked the Hooves family for their hospitality before going up to Derpy's room with her.

* * *

Staring at her new rose in a vase on the shelf, Cloudfire was going to ask Derpy what she wanted to do that evening. Since she was in such a funny mood, he'd decided it might be best to first see a movie or something along those lines, and was tossing out ideas when she cut him off mid-sentence:

"Cloudfire, I want to talk to you about something..."

The Gray pony's eyes darted back-n-forth from her Special Somepony's to the floor. He could tell she was nervous.

"Okay!" He smiled. "Sit down and let's talk."

Derpy sat on her bed, silently staring at her hooves. He did the same, putting his arm around her for support.

"What's on your mind, dear?"

"Cloudfire... do you not wanna... not go without the blankets at night... because of... err..."

She couldn't actually say it, but the way she looked at her Special Somepony Cloudfire... he pretty much knew exactly what was on her mind.

"I'm afraid to, Derpy." He snuzzled her. "I'm afraid of moving too fast and doing something I might regret... you're very special to me."

"I like you Cloudfire...!" Derpy said, firmly... more quietly adding afterwards, "like that."

"I know you do." He kissed her forehead. "And I like you... like that... too."

Derpy blushed:

"Would you ever? ... with me?"

Cloudfire paused for a moment, thinking hard... honesty was the best policy here, so he nodded and smiled, all the while turning a lovely shade of crimson.

There was a long, awkward silence. The two ponies looked into each other's eyes, blushing. Derpy kissed him as he sat there, sweating... debating what to do next. He couldn't think any more and was sick of it...

A surge of energy coursed through each of them as their arms wrapped tightly around each other, eyes closing and lips locking. Passionately they made out, tipping over to lay flush on Derpy's bed. Lost in the moment, Cloudfire stuck his tongue in Derpy's mouth as he kissed her deep. This surprised the young Pegasus, her eyes initially widening at the new sensations only to have her melt in his arms and roll to her back... she looked up at him through clear honeyed eyes.

* * *

Laying comfortably beside his Special Somepony, Cloudfire looked back into Derpy's gaze.

What just happened? Was all he could think.. The biggest issue in their relationship went from snuggling at night to this... sheesh! What happened? No... that wasn't true. This was always there, especially lately... Everything was moving so quickly so darn suddenly. Yeah... that was it.

Cloudfire's stomach was in knots, as though it were his first time. Then there was Derpy, looking up at him from her pillow... so silently... so trustingly. He'd have to make the first move here, but he wasn't sure he was prepared to... They were still and breathing silently up until Cloudfire finally spoke:

"I can't believe we're doing this..." He chuckled nervously. "Are you sure this is what you want to do, Derpy? We don't have to do it now if you're not ready..."

"Yeah," she said, nodding quickly. "I'm sure.".

He looked hard into her eyes and saw his own reflection... he looked more frightened than she did. She looked eager and curious... a fair state for her to he in, given this was her first time. She was a mare, she understood and... she was consenting. He'd done this dozens of times. What's the darn problem?

She's a virgin! Take it slow... think, you thick skulled idiot. This should be magical for her... maybe even for both of you.

He fought a single tear...

"I love you, Cloudfire!"

I love you Derpy.

. . .

* * *

"Are you all right?" Derpy asked him. "You're scowling again!"

""I c- ... I'm fine, Derpy!" he replied, tickling her tummy. "Lemme ask you something first, though... it's okay if you're shy talking about this. In fact, quite a few ponies are!"

Cloudfire was now quickly rubbing her stomach and in reply she was only softly squealing with delight, unable to respond until he finally let up:

"What is it?"

He cleared this throat... on a quest to find the right words. Derpy looked up at him innocently, not helping his search...

"Derpy, when you're alone... have you ever taken a hoof and put it..." he moved his hoof a bit lower, and started rubbing right around her breasts located beneath her stomach. "Down there, a bit lower than where I'm rubbing now.. say your genital area, and... rubbed until it started feeling good?"

"A couple times," Derpy replied, giggling. "It makes me feel too... sooo ... it's just too much."

"Oh," Cloudfire pulled his hoof back to her tummy. "I'm not sure this is such a good idea right now, then..."

"Please?" Derpy looked up at him with puppydog eyes.

"Derpy, it's going to feel MUCH stronger than touching yourself because part of me would have to go inside of you... very deep." He continued to rub her stomach soothingly. "I wouldn't want to do something like that to you and have it being too much for you... if it hurts or feels too strong, that's no fun. This should be special for you."

Derpy just stared at him, looking into his eyes lovingly.

"Just for a little while..." She said. "I really wanna try it with you..."

"Tell you what..." He said, deep in thought. "I've got an idea in my head, a way I can make you feel good and there's not the tiniest risk of hurting you. It's a pretty gentle activity, too, and my weight won't be against you, so you'll have some control over it. You up to it?"

"Yeah!" She replied, without hesitation.

"Oh, Derpy..." he sat up. "All right! I'm going to need you to pull your back legs up and open them up a bit for me..."

Derpy did as she was told, holding on to her thighs with her hooves in a way that Cloudfire... appreciated, to say the least.

"Perfect." He put his head between her legs. "I rather enjoy looking at you from this angle..."

Derpy blushed.

"I kinda like it too!"

"Good. It's important that we're both enjoying ourselves." He gave her a playful peck on the tummy. "Now, move your tail so it's not in the way and I can see your privates clearly... there, that's it. Are you still fine with this?"

"Well, I feel kinda funny laying like this with my privates up in the air," Derpy replied, giggling. "But it's kinda nice to feeling your breath on the inside of my legs... it tickles! What're you going to do to me?"

"I'd rather not describe it. It's a bit vulgar.. Better tofeel it... trust me?"

"I do."

"Okay, then..." Cloudfire said, moistening his lips. "Try to hold as still as you can for this."

* * *

He started rather gently, licking Derpy's inner thighs. She giggled like a little school filly at first, opening her legs a bit more and relaxing:

"That feels good!" She exclaimed, blushing.

"Well, we haven't even started yet, Derpy," Cloudfire replied, pulling up his body briefly to ruffle her mane.

The ivory Earth Pony looked up at his Pegasus companion, licking her left thigh, and then then her right. Back and forth he went, his body following a pattern somewhat rhythmic in nature. The once antsy Derpy Hooves was now relaxing quite a bit, enjoying the sensations of every tiny lick on her upper thighs. Both were lulled by the moment.

Cloudfire did this back and forth routine slowly at first, for about thirty seconds. Then he added a bit of his steamy breath... directly to her tight vaginal opening. Derpy reflexively jerked her legs towards each other when she felt his hot exhale.

Cloudfire looked up at the startled pony, gauging her facial expression...

"Sorry..." She said, quietly.

He reached up and rubbed her tummy as he continued the pattern of two deep licks and a subtle blow. Each time he blew, he felt a ripple of contraction in Derpy's thighs that she seemed to be consciously resisting. Gradually the contractions faded and Derpy's body relaxed yet again. His licks got lower and his breaths got sharper... all the while he looked up at Derpy, who's head was back, eyes drawn into narrow, relaxed little slits. His hoof went from her tummy to her breasts, gently rubbing them as he licked. It was about time...

He was gentle at first, just giving the general area a quick lick and watching Derpy's face. She winced, her thighs contracted and her body jerked forward. Last but not least, her tail attempted to cover up the sensitive spot between her legs, and would have if his head weren't there. Looking up at her, he pinned her tail with his free hoof... and licked again.

Cloudfire watched Derpy's twitching body carefully, listening closely for any form of STOP or NO, all the while watching for shakes of the head. She just stared at him, through those thin slits, gritting her teeth.

"You okay?"

She nodded.

He licked again, just the outside of the opening, very slowly... She gasped and smiled, her body becoming stiff and the area becoming moist by its own fluids. Since Derpy seemed to be enjoying herself, he started licking even more sharply, moving on to sensitive spots, the insides of tight untouched folds, which in turn also became wet with their own juices. He licked quickly and gently, getting a bit more thorough as he went along.

Her breathing became heavy... she grunted and groaned softly as his tongue passed over certain spots. Her thighs and tail still involuntarily contracted, but he gently held them back and open. She did not object, so he continued, gradually building in intensity all the while.

Derpy certainly did trust him. These sensations he was giving her, for the first time ever, were indescribable. Places she'd never touched because of how sensitive they were, were now being licked and tickled all indiscriminately... she wanted to cry it felt so wonderful and so unbearable at the same time. The first kiss they ever shared was enough to have her push him away it was so intense... this was many, MANY times that; more sudden and hard-hitting than anything she could have imagined. Untouched parts of her body felt engorged, every lick set them afire with powerful sensations. Deep down inside she always wanted him closer than she thought was physically possible when they hugged... and this certainly worked for that.

"Cloudfire... " She gasped, softly, as the contractions between her legs became more regular. "I... I feel like I have to pee!"

In response, Cloudfire said nothing and instead simply winked at her, rubbing her tummy before putting his hooves back on her breasts. His licks then started to get even more... intense.

There was one place that many stallions would have started off on with her... and probably have warranted an immediate boot to the head in response had he started there. Her button.

Gently, he parted her moistened lips with his hooves and exhaled deep inside. Her lips were unusually tight for a mare (even who'd never experienced a stallion). He paid it no mind and continued... on to her button and the surrounding related areas. He knew what was probably going to happen if he pushed this button of hers too early, so he played around it, gently...

He'd found it unusually deep inside. Seldom should he find it inside at all, and it was much smaller than most he'd ever seen.. almost under-developed, but that didn't phase him. He loved her all the same and licked her clit's outer edges to express his affections. A squeal escaped his Special Somepony as he did that, and he watched her tiny button expand, becoming even more engorged. Instead of having her thighs try to contract together this time, she wrapped her legs around his neck and he felt her hooves pressing into his back. He had no hesitation in his heart any longer:

He went to town. He licked the inner-folds to tease her, then enveloped her clitoris, suckling on it. Contractions in the area built up, stronger and stronger, her hooves digging into his back... a rhythmic moan built into a crescendo, getting louder and louder. A single gasp escaped her rigid body...

There was a gush from inside of Derpy that Cloudfire tasted and swallowed as she melted into a puddle on the bed. He knew it was time to let her rest.

* * *

"Hey... how are you doing?" Cloudfire finally asked his Special Somepony Derpy as he relaxed beside her on the soft bed.

He'd given her a few minutes to recuperate... her breathing had started out quite heavy, but gradually became more deep and relaxed over time. She looked so adorable laying there... so vulnerable... and worn out. He wagered in his mind that she would most likely drift off to sleep before she recovered from the afterglow. Time would tell...

Her bed sheets had were soaked with fluids left over from their activities, fluids mostly belonging to Derpy... but also a bit of Cloudfire's, seeing how his groin was pressed tight up against her mattress.

She didn't answer at him first. Through her eyes, still drawn into slits, she looked over at him and acknowledged his concern with a smile.

"Wow." Was the only word to escape her lips.

"Is there anything I can get you?" He whispered, stroking her mane. "A glass of water?"

She shook her head.

"Wh- .. what did you do?"

He snuzzled her in reply:

"I made love to you, Derpy. Some ponies call that particular activity 'eating pie' ... others might say 'eating muffin'. I'd imagine you might like that name!"

She smiled and nodded, not having enough energy yet to even giggle.

"I love you, Cloudfire," she said softly.

"I love you, too, Derpy." He snuggled up beside her. "Now go to sleep... we can worry about changing your sheets tomorrow."

She looked down at her sheets, damp with her fluids.

"Did I wet the bed?"

"No, no... not at all." He chuckled. "I did a little of that myself, actually. What happened here happens sometimes when a pony gets really excited... it's perfectly natural and a simple wash will have your sheets good as new!"

Derpy just moaned and relaxed as Cloudfire snuggled her tightly with no blankets between them. This was heaven, but Derpy wasn't going to sleep... after a few more minutes, she felt her strength returning. Stretching over Cloudfire for his warm embrace, she felt something poking her in the thigh. She looked down at it and then up at Cloudfire.

"Don't tell me I have to tell you what that's about, Derpy..." Cloudfire said, laughing. "It's quite all right... it'll go away on its own or I'll take care of it later on my own. Don't worry about it."

"But I feel kinda bad that-"

"Really, don't worry about it!" He kissed her. "We've had enough of an adventure for one night... you need to process it. I'll be fine."

"Is there anything I can do?" She poked him in the stomach. "Just to make that go away? I feel like I should... and I kinda want to."

Cloudfire blushed and Derpy giggled in response:

"Okay, Derpy! If you insist..." Cloudfire rolled to his back. "There's one thing you can do that'll be quick..."

* * *

Derpy was now resting above Cloudfire, looking down at his erect stallionhood curiously.

"Okay, Derpy... see that pink, sensitive ring under the flat tip?"

"Yeah," replied the Gray Pegasus, poking it as well as the tip.

"What I'd really like is if you'd take your hooves and... very gently, please... move that bit of flesh up and down. It's quite elastic, so as long as you don't force it too bar back, it's going to feel pretty good on my end."

Derpy followed his instructions, gingerly taking both her hooves and working the bit of loose skin back and forth.

"Like this?"

"Exactly like that," Cloudfire immediately replied, breathing heavily. "What you're doing is called a 'Clop Job' and it's a quick way for us to be intimate... and judging by how excited I am it's not going to take very long."

"This is kinda fun!" Derpy said, with a bubbly smile. "And the faces you're making are really cute! This must feel really good!"

"Oh, yes it does!" Cloudfire chuckled. "The faces you were making earlier were pretty cute to me, too."

Derpy blushed, continuing to use her hooves on Cloudfire. Eventually the strokes became a bit harder and there was a brief rhythmic clop-clop-clop as Derpy's hooves slipped past the loose skin on the way down. They both laughed.

Cloudfire felt the pleasurable sensations quickly building deep in his stomach... it came on much father than he was expecting.

"Okay, Derpy..." He gasped. "L-listen to me, v-very carefully..."

"What?" Derpy asked, speeding up noticeably for sheer enjoyment as she leaned forward, giggling and making deeper strokes now.

She found the faces Cloudfire was making to be too cute... and speeding up just made them cuter!

"Woah! Ease up there- ...Gah!"

It was too late. Seeing how aroused he had been over the past half hour, try as he might, he couldn't hold it in. Stifling his cries the best he could, he released it all into the air... had Derpy not been leaning forward, it would have gone past her head. Instead... she took a direct hit to the face and froze, instantly horrified. Her now death grip on his genitals didn't help matters. He was fighting with his own unusually intense pleasure as he tried to comfort her.

"It's okay!" He said, putting a hoof on her shoulder as his body involuntary jerked forward.

Derpy didn't utter a peep. Slowly her hooves moved towards her face... but she didn't dare touch it.

* * *

Cloudfire continued to spasm in pleasure as Derpy shook.

"Gah... gah.... gah..." they both said, for different reasons.

After about ten seconds, the pleasure subsided and Cloudfire sat up.

"Derpy, I'm sorry!" He said, hugging her in spite of the fluids all over her.

Once he touched her, she had a definite reaction, shaking her arms:

"Eww! Eww! Eww! Eww! Eww!"

"It's all right..." Cloudfire said, hugging her again tightly. "Stay right there."

He got up, found his saddle bags and took out a hanky. He started wiping her face tenderly, all the while beaming a loving grin at her.

"What I was trying to tell you earlier was that was about to happen... I don't think I need to tell you those were my fluids. If we ever do this again, make sure it's facing my chest when I tell you."

Derpy just looked at him, scowling.

"Well, I'd said we'd had enough of an adventure, hadn't I?" Cloudfire was irritated. "I'm sorry it happened, even a bit sympathetic... even think it's horrendously embarrassing for us both... just PLEASE listen to me next time!"

She nodded, a tear in her eye.

"Now, now... there's no reason to cry." He kissed her. "I still love you... even though we made a bit of a mess of your pretty face... it'll wash off just fine. Promise."

"I wanna take a shower..."

"That might be a good idea!" Cloudfire ruffled her mane. "Let's get ourselves presentable, you go take your shower and I'll remake your bed with clean sheets. How's that sound?"

"You're really wonderful to me, Cloudfire..." Derpy said, again with the tears still in her eye for a different reason now.

"That's because I love you, Derpy."

* * *

After a little more wiping off, Derpy descended her stairs with somewhat spiky fur all over her face near her muzzle. She had not tasted Cloudfire's fluids yet, but could still smell it's strong scent despite most of it being gone. Her parents were in the kitchen at the time, Mom doing a few dishes and Dad reading. As she passed the kitchen, Derpy wasn't exactly looking or acting herself, despite the spikey fur, so they stopped her in the living room, coming in and asked what was wrong.

Derpy froze, not knowing what to say. Fortunately Cloudfire came down at that exact time to check on her and found her stuck with both her parents looking at her. He spoke up for her:

"She's a bit... embarrassed." He said chuckling, as patted his Special Somepony on the back. "I tossed her a sample container of a sugary confection I got her from the Corner and it made a mess. Didn't screw the cap on tightly enough and as a result it got on over her sheets and face. I'm going to throw them in the wash when she steps out of the shower....Don't worry, I got it covered."

Derpy went into the shower and Cloudfire trotted upstairs... with Daddy Hooves shadowing him closely as he made the climb. From Derpy's door, the elder Unicorn said:

"Come on, Cloudfire... I know when I'm being taken for a ride. That wasn't really a confection all over her face, was it?"

Cloudfire shook his head, not looking up, as he made the bed.

"Thought so..." Replied Daddy Hooves. "Heard her moaning twenty minutes ago, then heard her saying 'eww' less than 5 minutes ago. I know what you guys did, and unless you did something really funny to her or she's got questions, I'd prefer to remain in the dark for once about the specifics... capiche?"

"She'd tell you if you asked..." Replied Cloudfire. "Believe me, she'd hate it, but she would... she trusts you guys... she's just a little shy."

Daddy Hooves smiled:

"I know she's shy, she's my daughter! ... and I'd like to think she's tell us, but she's getting older. I trust her all the same, so... Just clean up well, okay? We'll let the Mrs. think that's just sugar water."

"You're all right, Mr Hooves. I was quite scared of you at first..."

Daddy Hooves put his hoof up:

"Call me Dad..." He said, with a smirk. "And like I've said, you've got no reason to fear me as long as Derpy says yes and you're there for her. I swear on Celestia's Infinite Compassion that's the honest truth."

Cloudfire smiled.

Mr Hooves then descended the stairs and waited in the living room for Derpy while Cloudfire cleaned up. When she emerged feeling refreshed, she saw her father waiting in his chair:

"Hi daddy," she said with a new spring in her step. "What's up?"

"Hey Derpy... just wanted to ask you how you're doing."

"I'm great!" Replied the wall-eyed Pegasus.

"Good, good... just putting this on the table, honey: if you ever need to talk to someone about anything, you know you can always come to me, right?"

"Of course!"

"Even stuff about Special Someponies you might not know how to talk to Cloudfire about... just remember I'm here... okay?"

Derpy's bright face suddenly drooped... Daddy Hooves raised an eyebrow in response.

"... okay Daddy. I know."

Derpy slowly cantered up to her father and gave him a hug as Cloudfire came down the stairs with Derpy's dirty sheets draped over his back. He passed the two on his way to the washing machine, his heart warming to their affections. Father and daughter hugged the entire time Cloudfire was in the laundry room... towards the end he stood behind Derpy, just watching... enjoying the positive vibrations coming from the two. He sighed...

Wish I could have had a relationship like that with my dad... He thought to himself.

Daddy Hooves noticed his peculiar scowling... he was smiling seconds before. This was concerning, but he said nothing.

"Me and Cloudfire are going to go to bed now, daddy. Good night! Love you!"

"Good night, Derpy... Love you too!" Replied Daddy Hooves, watching his daughter and her Special Somepony climb the stairs. "Do right by her, Cloudfire... I'm watching you." Neither heard that last part.

With new sheets on the mattress, Derpy and Cloudfire retired to bed with nothing between their warm bodies. They snuggled tightly, enjoying the smell and warm touch of each other as they let sleep gradually take them both away into dreamland.

Author's Note

Teh steamy sex scene was hard to write. This chapter probably underwent the most editing. O.o
