Labor of Love
Chapter 7
Previous ChapterNext ChapterIt takes a few days to get everything set up for your plan, but you finally find yourself back on the train bound for Ponyville. Sitting with you is a smartly dressed unicorn, and the two of you pass multiple papers back and forth. As he passes you each one, you quickly sign it at the bottom and pass it back, the task repeated dozens of times before the last paper is finally secured in his briefcase. He wipes his brow with his handkerchief, concern and confusion on his face. "Mr. Silverwing, are you sure you wish to do this? This... this is quite a shocking decision. Does your father know about this?"
You gaze out at the passing landscape, spotting your destination far in the distance. "No, no he doesn't. But I have never been so sure of anything before. I have to do this."
The unicorn nods, knowing better than to ask for any explanation of why or how. He settles into his seat for the rest of the train ride, but you fidget in your seat, anxious to reach your destination.
Hours later you finally return to the small town that you love so much, but you don't have any time to reminisce on your memories, instead leading the unicorn to a familiar nearby building. You knock on the wooden door, and it soon opens. A purple unicorn opening the door and her eyes light up when she sees you. "You're really back!" she exclaims in excitement. You both enter her library, a table in the middle of the room set up for six.
"Twilight, thank you for helping." you say sincerely.
"Of course, anything for a friend. But I still don't get why you needed me and Spike here for a business meeting, or why anypony would have a business meeting here in Ponyville at all. Come to think of it, I didn't know you were a businesspony at all." she remarks. "Who else is coming? There's just four of us right now."
Before you can answer another knock at the door is heard. Spike rushes over to open the door, and two familiar earth ponies enter.
"Heya, Twi. So ya'll know what in the heck we're all doing here? Ah just got this message yesterday to meet here an..."
Applejack's sentence trailed off as she saw you standing beside Twilight. Big Mac follows her in and is also shocked to see you. "Uh... hey." you manage to say.
Tears flood AJ's eyes and she rushes to you, embracing you tightly. You return the hug, trying to console her as she sobs into your shoulder. "Go-gosh darnit, you idjit! W-we... we were so worried about yah!" she managed to yell at you between heavy sobs. Big Mac walks up to you also and pats you on the back. Though he says nothing, you can tell from his watering eyes that he was also worried about you, and is also glad to see you back safely.
It takes a few minutes for Applejack to calm down and let go of you. The mood is soiled by your companion who coughs loudly. "Ahem... can we begin yet? There's a lot to get done today, and I must return to the city as soon as I can."
You shoot him a glare stern enough to almost match Fluttershy's, but admit to yourself that, if things go correctly, he would indeed have quite the workload to complete. "Maybe we should get started." you say.
Applejack and her brother take one side of the table while you and your companion take the opposite side. Twilight and Spike fill the two remaining seats between the two groups, Spike looking quite distraught at the stack of papers that your companion places in front of him.
Applejack wipes her hooves across her eyes, clearing the last of her tears. "So what in tarnation is goin' on here? Ah thought we were meetin' with somepony from that bank in Fillydelphia ah went to." Applejack said. Big Mac nodded in agreement.
The unicorn next to you opened his briefcase and put on a pair of spectacles. "Ahem, yes, well, that would be us. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Mr. Cal Culate, chief accountant for the SIlverwing Bank and Investors. And this, of course, is the new executive of properties and the owner's son, Mr. Silverwing."
You shrink back into your seat as your family name is revealed, your friend's jaws all almost hitting the table in surprise. "Wha'... but how... you're really..." Twilight stuttered.
You nod your head in confirmation, trying to read Applejack's reaction. Her face still remains in shock as her brain processes the information she just heard. Cal coughs again, becoming impatient. "Yes, well, now that we got that cleared up, Mr. Silverwing here has somehow seen vast potential in your farm, despite the board's decision to look into other uses for the property..."
"They said what?!" Applejack and Big Mac yelled out in surprise.
Cal readjusted his glasses. "The board had gone over your annual revenue reports and deemed that this land was not being used to its full potential, and decided it would be in the best interest of everypony to build more promising business opportunities."
"Now hold on a garsh darn second!" Applejack yelled. "That's our home! Ain't nopony in some fancy schmancy bank that's gonna just kick us all out like that!"
"Now hold on, Ms. Applejack." Cal said, taken aback by her outburst. "Though that would be the best course of action to make a larger profit, that is not what Mr. Silverwing here decided to do. You there, young dragon, if you please." he said to Spike. Spike grumbled at being treated like a child, but dutifully began distributing the papers to the proper pony.
Applejack scanned the first few papers. "Thi-this is... this is a contract to sell the farm! Uh uh, no way! We ain't gonna give up our farm so easily t..."
"Wait Applejack!" Twilight interrupted, looking over her copy. "It is a contract to sell Sweet Apple Acres, but this says that Silverwing Bank and Investors is selling Sweet Apple Acres to... Applejack."
Applejack read the document slower, her eyes going wide. "Bu-bu-but, ah can't! There's no way ah could afford to buy it all back righ' now."
"Ahem," Cal coughed once more. "If you'll please turn to the last page, you will find a receipt. Mr. Silverwing and I cleared the funds for the purchase this morning before we left Fillydelphia. All that is left of for Ms. Applejack to sign the papers and the farm will be returned to her. Oh, and Ms. Sparkle, you will need to also sign in place of the 'Canterlot Official' overseeing the transaction. Her highness Princess Celestia personally notified me that her most trusted student could sign instead."
Applejack and Big Mac both gasped as they turned to the last page and saw the enormous price that had been paid. She looks up at you, her eyes wide with surprise. "How the... how did you... how did he..."
Turning to you, your accountant slides one last document in front of you. "And if you would please sign this, sir, this will finalize your sale of any and all assets you own with your father's bank." Before anypony there could ask what he meant or object, you sign your name at the bottom, sealing the deal. Applejack and Twilight also sign where they need to, both still in slight shock as to all the information that had just been dumped on them. Cal collected all the papers, looking them over and nodding before placing them back in his briefcase. "Very good, thank you all. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to rush back to the city to file these and inform the board that the farm has made them an acceptable 'profit'." He places an envelope in front of you before getting up and leaving the library, walking quickly to catch the next train back to the city. Spike also gets up, heading upstairs grumbling that after a whole day organizing the library, the last thing he needs is to sort more papers.
An awkward silence hung over the room before Twilight finally asks what was on her, AJ's, and Big Mac's mind; "What the hay is going on here?"
Sighing, you decide it's time to come clean, and you tell them all your real identity, who your family is, and how you ran away and wound up in Ponyville. The three ponies in front of you look at you in disbelief. Twilight spoke up first, asking what was on everypony's mind. "Why didn't you just tell us who you were? We wouldn't have cared. Well, except Rarity... she would have begged you to introduce her to all of your contacts back home."
"I was afraid of word getting around that I was here. My dad... he's a great dad, always gave me whatever I wanted. But you all heard how ruthless he is when it comes to his business. He won't let anypony stand in his way when it comes to making money, and won't hesitate to crush somepony's living for bigger opportunities." you say, nodding towards the Apple siblings.
"But how in the hay did ya'll manage to afford to pay so darn much for the farm?" Applejack wondered. "There's no way even Celestia could just come up with that kinda money!"
You decide to just tell the truth. You explain to the ponies how you and your accountant came up with a sum that you’re the bank’s board couldn’t refuse. The only way to raise that kind of money was to sell any interest you had in the company, as well as to call in a few favors that some of the executive ponies owed you, and finally by getting the remaining amount by dipping into your personal account. Without hesitation you write the check to buy back the farm, putting Applejack’s name as the buyer to return her home to her family.
Applejack tears up again after hearing how far you went for her. She gets up and slowly walks over to you, and instead of saying anything she pulls you forward and kisses you deeply. Her tongue brushes against your lips and you extend yours to meet hers, the kiss lasting for almost a minute before you two break apart. Twilight’s face turns red from witnessing the intimate exchange, and Big Macintosh just shakes his head, but has a small smile on his face. Applejack shyly looks away, finally remembering that you two weren’t alone. “S-so, uh… so what are ya’ll gonna do now?” Applejack nervously asks.
“I don’t really know, I kind of didn’t think this far ahead.” you admit. “I can’t really go back home after going behind my father’s back and selling everything he worked to give me. Besides, I didn’t really like the city life. I’ll just travel for a while, maybe find a new place to call home soon.”
“But… yah already have someplace to call home.” Applejack said. “Ya’ll had a home the day you came here and met Big Macintosh. Right, Big Mac?”
“Eeyup.”
Her hoof touching yours, she softly kisses you again. “C’mon, sugarcube, let’s go home.”
The three of you walk back to the farm together, Big Macintosh leading the way while you and Applejack trail behind together. The majority of the walk is silent, you and Applejack not knowing what to say to each other. You catch her glancing at you shyly, but every time you look back into her eyes she blushes and quickly looks away. The walk finally ends, and you reach the familiar barn that you gave everything away to save. Entering the barn you feel like you truly are home. You yawn, the past few days of staying up late catching up to you and taking its toll. You’re happy that Pinkie Pie hasn’t gotten word yet that you were back, or she would no doubt be here with yet another party in full swing.
You enter your old room, much more satisfied with the simple layout over the gigantic monster of a room back in Fillydelphia. “And no maids bursting in unannounced.” you say to yourself. Right then, you hear your door slowly open and somepony enter.
Praying to Celestia it isn’t some cruel, ironic twist that your maids found you, you turn around and see that it’s Applejack. “Oh, hey.” you say.
She doesn’t respond, instead slowly approaching you while she drops her hat by the door. She walks up to you, her face inches away from yours, getting closer and closer before your lips finally connect again. Though it’s technically your third kiss with her tonight, you still feel butterflies in your stomach as her soft lips connect with yours, her tongue once again meeting yours. She softly moans and moves her body up against yours. Her hoof reaches up and strokes your underbelly, causing your legs to buckle slightly and you begin to feel aroused.
Applejack breaks contact with you, pushing you over to the bed. You don’t offer any resistance, and allow yourself to be pushed onto your back and she climbs on top of you. She looks down with a smile, noticing your cock beginning to harden and grow. She gently rubs her hoof along the shaft, feeling it grow larger and firmer as she grinds her crotch against your leg. You feel her growing aroused also, a slick trail of her love juices forming along your leg.
You groan as she gently starts to give you another hoof job, but this time she goes slower, being more intimate with each stroke. “Ya’ll like that?” she says softly. You moan as she gently squeezes you. “Ah’ll take that as a yes.” she says.
Seeing that you’re fully erect, she slides her body up, sliding your cock against her wet slit. Looking down, you see her lower lips spread apart as the length of your cock slides between them. This all seems oddly familiar, but as she started moving her body you lose your train of thought to the warm sensation. The angle Applejack’s body is at causes her clit to rub directly against your shaft, causing her to occasionally jerk as her senses become overloaded. “Buck it, ah need it now.” she mutters, rising up and positioning herself over your cock. “Consarn it, how did she do it again?” she muttered, fidgeting slightly as she tried to get your cock to slide in her.
“Wait, what did yo- ahhhh.” you try to say, but she finally finds her mark and lowers herself onto your waiting cock. You can’t help but gasp as her pussy envelopes your cock, squeezing you so tight that you don’t think it will be possible to get more than your tip in. You can see that she is in pain, but Applejack keeps on forcing more into her. She bites on her lower lip to keep from yelping out as you sink deeper into her tight passage. You thought Rainbow Dash was tight, but Applejack was surprisingly much tighter than her smaller friend. You correctly guess that it was from all the apple-bucking she’s done her entire life, her muscles in her flank being stronger than almost any other pony.
One last push down finally fills Applejack completely, but instead of finding pleasure she only found pain, a few stray tears finding their way down her face. “Ah… ah’m sorry, just gimme one second.” she gasps. She tries to rise back up but her face is stricken with pain, and she collapses onto your chest, grimacing.
“Applejack, stop…” you try to plead.
“N-n-no, ah c-can do this. Ah have t-to.” she responds. “This is h-h-how Rainbow Dash said ya liked it.”
“Wait, Rainbow Dash?” you say, turning red as you remember that day Applejack caught you two together.
“Y-yeah… after ya disappeared, Rainbow came a-and apologized. We talked, and she t-t-told me about how ya r-really… really liked what she did.” Applejack admitted.
You flap your wings, in one motion flipping Applejack onto her back and laying her on the bed while trying to extract yourself as gently as possible. Now standing over her, you look deep into her confused eyes. “AJ, it’s not how it’s done or anything like that. It’s who the special pony I’m with. I… I made a mistake, and I would take it back if I could. But I still love you, AJ. I really do.”
She looks away from you. “Ah… ah’m sorry ah wasn’t truthful with ya. Ah just panicked when ya said that to me. And… ah did something also that ah understand if ya never forgive me for. But ah, well, ah do love ya too.”
You gently turn her head back to you and kiss her. As you do, you bring your haunches forward, the tip of your cock finding its way back up against her tight, wet hole. She freezes, remembering how much it hurt to get you inside, but you assure her that you’ll be gentle. Nodding, she allows you to continue, gasping as you slowly begin to slide into her, taking care not to rush it. Every time she starts to wince in pain, you stop to allow her to adjust to your girth before continuing. It takes almost fifteen minutes, but you finally fill her up once again, this time with pleasure flowing through her body.
“How’s that? You okay?” you ask her.
“Bucking goddess, ah didn’t you were gonna be this big.” she said, staring down to where you two are connected.
The hot heat wrapped around your cock feels like heaven, and you slowly take shallow strokes and receive a soft moan from Applejack.
“Oh Celestia, that feels good. Yah can do it harder if ya want. Ah’m all yours.” Applejack says seductively. That’s all the motivation you need. You begin to take long, deep strokes in and out of her tight hole, causing her to gasp and cry out from each thrust. Her hooves grasp the sheets in ecstasy as you start to build your speed, her muscles starting to relax but still gripping your cock tightly.
The stimulation her pussy gives you begins to become too much and you don’t think you can hold out much longer. You try to slow down your pace, wanting to enjoy the pleasure of her body for as long as possible, but she thrusts her hips up, her body wanting more. A familiar sensation in your balls starts to build, and you know you’re getting close. Applejack starts to reach her peak also, and you suddenly feel her pussy tighten up as she bites her hoof to stop from screaming out and alerting everypony in the barn to her climax.
Her orgasm sends you over the edge, and you start to cum before you can even think of pulling out. Her orgasm continues as she feels your warm seed begin to flood her womb, and she wraps her hind legs around your body, pulling you deeper into her as you continue to unload spurt after spurt of cum into her.
You collapse onto her warm body and you both try to catch your breath. She nuzzles your neck and you return the gesture, your lips then meeting once again. You try standing up and slowly extract your softening tool from her flooded pussy, globs of your semen leaking out once you remove yourself. Lying down next to her, you drape a hoof over her body and pull her close to you.
“So be honest, was ah better than Dash?” she asks. You turn deep red, not sure how you can possibly answer that question right now. She giggles at your embarrassment. “Ah guess ah just gotta keep doin a good job so ya don’t have to go back to her.”
Sleep finally begins to descend on the both of you, and you both cuddle up as close to each other as possible. Applejack softly says your name, and you look straight into her bright green eyes, finally hearing those words you longed to hear from her lips before you both fall asleep.
“Ah love you.”
Author's Note
Not the strongest ending I would have liked, but I started to lose motivation half-way through writing this chapter. For now, I think that this is where this story is going to end, unless enough people want it to continue, then I'll take a look at doing so after I finish up a few other things.
I'm always open to ideas, so if anyone wants to suggest something for this story feel free.
