The life I wished for.

“Ummm, excuse me. Mr. Brandon? It’s time to get up now.”

“I swear to god if it’s before eight o’clock, I’m going, to smack you”

Fluttershy giggled a little at his comment, she knew I wasn’t quite a morning person at first, but I just needed my coffee.

“Now I don’t think you would really hit me, would you?” She said sweetly as she gently nuzzled my cheek.

“Yeah your right, but I will do this!” I smiled as I quickly got up and lifted the butter yellow Pegasus and playfully tossed her onto the bed and started to tickle her sides.

She squealed with laughter and wiggled around as she cried from laughing so hard. “Stop! Stop! You know how ticklish I am! Ahhahahhahahah!”

“Alright, I just wanted to see you laugh.” I extended my hand and grabbed her hoof to help her up, but I stopped, staring at her hoof in my hand.

“I-is something wrong Brandon? You seem, sad.”

“It’s just different; I’m used to feeling a grip around my hand when I grab someone.” I pulled her up and walked towards the door.

“Wait, Brandon.” She trotted up behind me, and flew up so she could make eye contact as she turned me around.

“I know this isn’t where you came from. But it just feels like you belong here. You’re a kind pon-I mean person.” She pulled me into a hug and waited for me to return the embrace before she released.

“Your coffee is ready by the way; I don’t see why you drink that.”

“I told you Shy, It keeps me wakes me up in the morning. So what do you have planed for today?”

She smiled a little as the thoughts of what she planed came back to her.

“Well, I thought we could have a nice picnic later for dinner, but the rest of the day is free.”

“Well that sounds nice. Hey I’m going to take a shower, let all my muscles relax.” I turned my head and winced as a pain shot down my spine.

“Oh, well I was going to take one, but you can go first I guess.” She hid part of her face behind her long flowing pink mane.

“Or….we could take one…..together.” I didn’t even look at her as my smile spread across my face. I turned to see her face as bright red as the apples from Sweet Apple Acres.

“O-oh umm I umm wha-what?” She started to breathe harder, almost to the point of hyper ventilation.

“Hey Shy calm down, I was just kidding!” I went behind her and placed my hands on her shoulders and tried to relax her by giving her a massage.

Her body relaxed as I worked on her shoulders. After about a minute of massaging her shoulders, she lay back onto me and looked me in the eyes.

“That wasn’t funny you know, I didn’t know how to react to that.” She gave me a light smack on the shoulder and smiled.

“Sorry, I thought it would be funny to see your face.” I pushed up a little so I could stand.

“Thank you for the massage, I’ll give you one when you get out okay?”

“That sounds great; I won’t be too long I promise.” I walked upstairs and into the bathroom.

This was my normal Monday. For some reason I was put on a schedule on whom I was supposed to stay with. Mondays were Fluttershy’s day. I guess it wasn’t so bad living in all of the girl’s houses on different days of the week. The only bad part was on Sundays, which was my day to choose whom I was to stay with.

I climbed into the shower to get washed up. It was a little small, since it wasn’t made for a human, but it got the job done. I was just getting the soap out of my hair when I heard a knock at the door.

“What is it Fluttershy?” I called out so she could hear me.

I could tell she was saying something, but I couldn’t hear her cause she was too quiet.

“Fluttershy, you’re going to have to open the door, I can’t understand a word your saying.” I made sure that the shower curtains were blocking my man hood so she didn’t have to see it.

The door opened just a little, just enough for her to push her muzzle in so she could speak.

“Umm, you have some visitors downstairs, The Cutie Mark Crusaders.”

“Oh, tell them I’ll be down in just a minute, I’m almost done in here.” I grabbed a scrubby to wash my body and poured a little soap on it.

“Well, what about your massage?” She crept her head in so she could see my face.

“Hmm…..how about we save it until dinner, that way we can relax in the breeze as well.”

“Oh, that sounds like a wonderful idea. Will you be home before then or should we meet there?” She pushed the door open a little further so she could stand in the door way.

“I think I should be back before then, I’m not positive, so we’ll have to see.” I rinsed off my body and turned off the water. I climbed out of the shower to see Fluttershy standing there with a deep blush on her face.

“O-oh m-my.” She was frozen in place, not sure what to say or do.

“Oh, umm. Sorry.” I quickly grabbed a towel and wrapped it around my waist. “Just let me get dressed and I’ll be down in just a minute.”

She nodded and slowly trotted out of the room.

“Wow…..that was awkward.” I poked my head out the door to make sure that Fluttershy was gone before I walked across the hall into my room, which on every other day of the week is Fluttershy’s room. I argued with Fluttershy for hours about where I was going to sleep. I told her a thousand times that I would take the couch, but she insisted that I slept on her bed for the days I was here.

I argued with all of the girls of where I would sleep when I stayed at their houses. Most of us came to an agreement on the subject.

I convinced Twilight that sleeping in chairs is what humans do on earth.

AppleJack respected the fact that I wouldn’t take her bed and had me sleep in the barn.

Rarity offered me her bed, but I could tell that she was hoping I would say no.

Pinkie forced me to sleep with her in her bed because she didn’t see how it could be weird.

I have to say that staying at Rainbow Dash’s house is one of the weirdest experiences of my life. I stay at Twilight’s before Dash’s, so Twi casts a spell on me so I can walk on clouds.

Fluttershy is only one I completely lost an argument with, so now I’m living in her room.

I got into the room and shut the door. “Today is just going to be a weird day.”

“Cutie Mark Crusaders Assassins!” The three fillies jumped up out of no where and onto my back, sending me to the floor.

“We sure got him that time girls!”

“Maybe we should check if we hurt him, he did hit the ground pretty hard.”

“Ah don’t know, heh is purtty tough, ah think heh’s fine”

“You know, you could have waited down stairs for me so could get dressed. I’m still in my towel.”

Ever since I met these fillies, they find new ways to hurt me everyday. Being taken on their quest to find their cutie marks has been nothing but fun, but at the same time it has been a total hell.

“I don’t see why you where those ‘clothes’ of yours. We don’t wear clothes all the time.”

“Mah sis AppleJack said he wears em to cover somtin between his legs.”

“Alright, everypony out.” I grabbed the three fillies in my arms and carried them out the door.

“Hey! We can walk you know!”

“Let me get dressed and I’ll be down stairs in a minute!” I tossed the fillies out and shut the door. “What should I where today? Wait what’s this?” I walked to the bed and picked up a note that was lying on a pile of neatly folded clothes.

“I though I should set out your clothes for you because of what happened, I can understand if you don’t want to go out to our picnic tonight.”

I looked to find my maroon t-shirt and light black jeans with a red trim. On the left of that, my black zip up hooded sweatshirt.

“Well, that was really nice of her. It’s like she knows me better than I do.” I slipped on my clothes and walked downstairs.

“Alright girls, you ready to go? We have to stop by Twilights first.”

“We have to go to the library? Gahhh! I hate books!” Scootaloo face hoofed and groaned.

“Calm down Scootaloo, maybe Twilight will let us take Spike for a little while.” Sweetie Belle said as she trotted out of the kitchen.

“Mahybe y’all are rahight, I’m sure it won’t be that bad.” Apple bloom spoke as she hoped off the chair in the corner of the room.

“Then it’s settled, we’re going to Twilight’s house. Fluttershy!?”

“Umm yes?” She trotted to the doorway of the kitchen.

“I’ll try to be home so I can help get everything ready for our dinner okay?”

“Oh umm great, that sounds….nice” She smiled sheepishly.

I gestured to the girls to follow me to go outside as I opened the door.

“Alright girl, lets get out of Fluttershy’s hair. See you later Shy!”

“Bye….be careful now.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll watch the girls closely.” I closed the door as I walked out.

“……I was talking…..about you.”
