//------------------------------// // Business As Usual // Story: Not a Cloud In the Sky // by OutOfTheBlue //------------------------------// [Note: there will be a lot of back and forth dialogue early on this chapter. At first I'll specify but then it will just alternate.] Cloud idly swung his hooves as he waited for the nurse to arrive. He snapped to attention as the door opened revealing a white mare with a pink mane and tale. The nurse cleared her throat and gave him a smile. "Hello, you must be Cloud Nine, nice to meet you." Cloud nodded in response prompting the mare to enter the room. When the door was closed she sat down across from him. "Now then, before we start the physical examination, we have to ask you a few questions." She said. Cloud pursed his lips. "Um... ok?" The nurse smiled before beginning her series of questions. "Now then, are you allergic to anything?" "Coconuts." Cloud replied. "Any prior conditions or ailments?" "No." "Any medications?" "No." "Sexual history?" "Epic, and private." "Okay then, on to the physical." She approached Cloud and gently started moving his previously broken leg up and down. "Any discomfort?" She asked. Cloud shook his head. She then started gently pressing on his shoulder. "Any discomfort?" Cloud shook his head again. She then extended his wing and gently started rolling the feathered appendage. Cloud smiled as he felt no pain or unpleasant pulling sensations. "I'll take that as a no. Well, with that out of the way you're free to go." The nurse said with a smile. Cloud hopped off the table and turned to face the nurse. "Thanks nurse. Well, I would say I hope I see you again, but right now I'd rather not spend any more time in the hospital." They both nodded to eachother as Cloud walked out the door. ----------------------- Cloud breathed in a deep breath as he entered his home. It was good to be able to fly home rather than roll along in a wheelchair. He smiled as he sat down on the couch. No more dealing with those annoying injuries and that stupid wheelchair. He felt a sudden warmth settle against his back. He turned and gave Pandora a broad smile. "Hey hun! Guess wh--" suddenly, Pandora drew him into a deep kiss. Cloud shrugged before returning the kiss. It was always interesting, kissing a changeling. First there was the fangs, and then there was the rather flexible forked tongue. His happy hum turned into surprised yelp as Pandora tipped him onto his back and started getting more and more energetic. Cloud finally managed to extricate himself from her tight grip and sat there holding the changeling at hoofs length. She squirmed to attempt to slip out of his grip and get back to what they were doing. Cloud cocked an eyebrow as he noticed her half-lidded eyes, panting, and the fact that her tongue was lolling out of her mouth. "Um... your a bit more... affectionate than usual. You feeling okay?" Cloud said. He was concerned to say the least. Pandora usually was sweet and more snuggly then... sexual. But now, he'd only ever seen her like this in the bedroom. Pandora purred as she struggled to close the gap between them. "Oh I feel just ~fine~. Although, there is ~something~ you could do to make me feel even better." She growled as she lunged forward and attempted to resume their more oral variant of wrestling. Cloud grabbed Pandora, holding the panting changeling still. "Okay, I seriously want to know what's going on. I mean, now that I'm back to full health I'm more than happy to do 'it' with you, but now you've got me worried." Pandora groaned in disappointment and gave a huff of annoyance. "Nothing's the matter! It's just my time of the year!" Cloud blinked before tilting his head to the side. "Wait, what?! What's that supposed to mean!?!" Pandora sighed, "I keep forgetting you don't know some of this stuff. Well, once a year all the breeder changelings, those are changelings designated to have children, became fertile and pick a suitable male to mate with. Now that I'm not in the hive anymore, I'm not exposed to the anti-fertility pheromones that are used on all the other females. So, now that you're back to normal, are we going to--" Cloud gently hugged her and started rubbing between her wings in order to help her get herself back under control. "Okay, I can tell you really are, well, turned on, but we need to wait for Friday. Aqua will be home soon and I do NOT want him to walk in on us. So we need to wait until he leaves for his sleep over tomorrow, and then we can do whatever you want." Pandora perked up. "We can do... anything?" Cloud suddenly felt uncomfortable. "Well, maybe not ANYTHING, but, just tell me what you had in mind." Pandora smirked before whispering in Cloud's ear. Cloud started blushing and spluttered out, "B-but, where would we get that much honey?!? And why would we want to bang in a bathtub filled with honey!? And making you panties out of resin!?! Where did you come up with this!?" Pandora rolled her eyes. "Well it's either that or..." she leaned in and started whispering again. Cloud's face got progressively redder and redder as she went on. "O-okay, I guess bathtub full of honey it is!" Cloud said before shuddering. Some mental images should never be forced on another living being. They both turned as they heard the door open and Aqua stepped inside. "Hi Mom! Hi Dad! What ya doooin?" "Nothing! Just about to go take a shower! A cold shower! Bye!!" Cloud hastily beat a retreat, desperate to hide his shame from his son. Aqua turned to Pandora and let his disguise melt away. "What was that all about?" Pandora giggled before saying, "Cloud just got all sweaty flying over here now that he's all better." "Oooh! That's good." Aqua said. Pandora nodded before flailing and falling off the couch at Aqua's parting remark. "I thought you guys were wrestling again."
