Oh and yeah Bon Bon comes in since some of you are wondering about Lyra. My Little Pony Friendship is Magic belongs to Hasbro and Lauren Faust. LUST The power of the morning sun gently hugs the neck of a muscular red stallion sleeping soundly while he held on tight to smarty pants. Such a relic of past childhoods that somehow gave Big Macintosh a sense of security whenever thoughts of his colthood pass though his mind. His colthood was not one any young colt will ever desire, at such a young age he had to mature fast to take the role of Stallion of the Family. Of course there was Granny Smith, but her age rendered her useless to support a now entering adolescence Big Macintosh, young Applejack, and an infant Apple Bloom until he put on the yoke that he is well known to almost have at all times. For years his yoke became a part of him…as if a piece of something new was grafted into his soul, and to add insult to that result. Many days of his pre-adolescent years were spent learning how to buck apple trees before his parents were taken to the other side by the Great Spirit. But now in present time he had a sense joy in his purpose. Knowing that Applejack, Apple Bloom, and Granny Smith counted on him, for keeping their traditional livelihood alive despite the cost of a memorable colthood. But hey, it's his life, one that now became unpredictable because he met Lyra. Big Macintosh rubs his eyes, because for the first time in a long time he slept a full night. What a feeling he relished when he placed smarty pants on his pillow and then walked downstairs to prepare breakfast for everypony else. Especially for Applejack who pasted out on the couch last night after returning home last night from the party drunk, sweaty, a hickey on her neck…something of which he didn’t want to know how she got it, and lastly she a huge smile on her face. *Loud Knocking* “Somepony this early in the morning? Oh well, it could be the mail stallion or the banker coming to pick up our deposit.” So Big Macintosh went to answer the door and is greeting by Bon Bon who has an expression on her face that he’d seen many times before, the one a husband will have when another stallion messes with his wife. Or so it seems… the other way around. *** In the library of Ponyville is Twilight Sparkle with her nose buried in books. Her mind is surprisingly clear of any thoughts, as if nothing had been imprinted in her memory. Just then she hears knocking on the door and had to get up to answer since Spike went out to help Rainbow Dash and Applejack in a race. Twilight opens the door to find sweet and shy Fluttershy waiting outside but…something in her appearance tipped off Twilight a bit. “Helloooo, Twilight Sparrrrkle you know I just came here to tell you something.” “Oh this is not good! I think Fluttershy is tipsy, but how?” Twilight calmly told herself. “Fluttershy it’s very kind of you to show up, please come in and make yourself at home if you want and please don’t trip over the waste basket.” But just then Fluttershy lunged toward Twilight pinning her down on the floor and directly stared into her eyes. Twilight’s heartbeat started to speed up seeing that the kind Fluttershy is above her smiling a sadistic smile. “You know Twilight its very rare of me to ask for anything, because I always put the needs of others first before mine. But after meeting you I started to develop an unquenchable thirst within me, but now I see the solution to that thirst…and that’s you Twilight.” Twilight’s eyes shot open wide after her mind calculated and deduced the meaning of Fluttershy’s words, her horn began to glow so she can try to get Fluttershy off of her. But it's no use. Fluttershy used The Stare upon Twilight to keep her still and from using her magic. “Uh uh uh Twilight not this time. You are mine. Time to quench my thirst. YAY!!” Twilight couldn’t move her body since the stare overrode any commands her mind gave to her horn and muscles. Twilight’s eyes was the only part of her body she had power over. She could only see Fluttershy smile and wink at her as she started to spread open her hind legs and lower her head. “AHHH!” Twilight yells as she jump off from her bed. “Oh its only a dream… ha! Like hell I’ll ever let her do anything like that to me. WHOA!” Twilight saw Fluttershy asleep on the other side of her bed “How did she get ther…Oh yeah I ran into her and brought her home since she was drunk after I saw…that.” She snorted out smoke after finishing the sentence. She turned to look at Fluttershy who looked beautiful sleeping peacefully on her bed she then started to think of the dream. The unicorn slowly closes her eyes and makes her thoughts flow to her eyes once she reopened them Fluttershy is no longer sleeping on her bed, instead it was Applejack sleeping on her bed. Twilight gasps at seeing Applejack on her bed, oh how she wanted to jump on the bed and bury her hoof in Applejack's face for taking Rarity’s heart. Luckily Fluttershy moaned stopping Twilight short of carrying out her intentions and adorably Fluttershy softly coughs before stirring. “She will be waking up anytime soon, I better prepare some breakfast for her especially since her hangover will be getting to her. But why me of all ponies… couldn’t she of fallen for somepony else? Hmm oh well she is no threat to me, and I should take a mental note to immediately shut my eyes and head butt her if she ever tries that action.” Twilight then focuses on a picture frame on her bedside table that held a photo of her and Rarity. The photo was taken when both Rarity and Twilight went shopping in Canterlot, such fun she had with Rarity on that day. Twilight kisses her hoof and places it on the frame smiling a bit, until the Black Rose reminded her that day was only in the past. “Don’t think about it and just cook breakfast…Applejack is my friend. *Sigh* A friend who has the heart of the mare I love.” *** “Oooh my head, aaah why does it hurt so much? Oww!” “Relax Gold Sky it’s just a hangover it will go away soon.” Octavia in her soothing voice comforted Gold Sky. “A hangover? What’s a hangover…PRAY TELL AM I DYING!?” Gold Sky’s eyes start to tear up as that thought raced through mind. “I can’t be dying! I don’t want to die!! Octavia call Celli or Luna! Do something! Something! Nurse Redheart help!!!!” Octavia started to stroke Gold Sky’s mane and she bent down to kiss him softly on the forehead. “Calm down you’re not dying Gold Sky, so don’t worry. But I wonder have you ever had a hangover or better yet have you ever consumed alcohol before?” “Eenope, I have never in the two hundred and three years of my life ever drunk alcohol. Because Princess Celestia told me alcohol is of no use to the body and it does ever more harm than good.” Gold Sky wipes away the tears that were forming earlier in his teal eyes. “But Octavia since you hate alcohol, how did you know there was alcohol in the punch? Surely you didn’t drink any of that punch did you?” Octavia giggled a bit before answering. She loved how this Alicorn asks such simple questions, good thing for immortally which gives her all the time of the world to answer them. “I smell everything before I eat or drink it, so that’s how I was able to pick traces of alcohol and rainbow spice in the punch. And just for the record I think Rainbow Dash spiked the punch which can explain why she was laughing hysterically when the other guests started acting weird.” The Alicorn sighed in relief but then started to rub his head as the pain came back, for such a great creature his body can’t handle even the tiniest amount of alcohol. “So I’m not dying then?” Octavia shook her head. “Thank goodness…I can’t imagine ever leaving you. Please hug me.” The Earth pony mare hugs her husband tight “I love you Tavi.” “What did you say!?” Her voice became stern on the spot. “I love you ta…err I love you Octavia!” “I’m never going to leave your side Gold Sky, we are one remember. Now wait here while I go get you some breakfast, it could help with your hangover.” “You are my heart and you are my pulse Octavia. Ow I see why alcohol does more harm than good.” *** “Hello Ms. Bon Bon what brings you here to sweet apple acres at this hour?” The red stallion answers with the most pleasant tone of his voice. “Don’t you play dumb with me…I mean hello Big Macintosh, I’m here discuss something very important with you.” Bon Bon's voice strains to keep a normal tone. “Of course please come in, if you want you can stay for breakfast and we can talk turkey.” “No that won’t necessary Macintosh…” "It’s Big Macintosh, please keep that in mind.” The red stallion cut into her sentence to correct her. “Look I’m here to talk about Heartstrings.” Big Macintosh tilts his head in confusion. “Who’s Heartstrings?” “Really, you don’t know who she is and yet you're hitting on her…Heartstrings... that doesn't ring a bell?” Big Macintosh just blinks at her. “*Sigh* Lyra…” “Oh Lyra! Hehe what about her? Did something bad happen to her!?” His voice suddenly became alarmed. “Calm down Big Macintosh nothing bad happened to her, but I’m just here to cut to the chase… I had my eye on her for a long time and I will not let anypony get in my way of being with her. Especially you Big Macintosh.” Big Macintosh gasps at hearing this, he soon realized if he got the heart of Lyra he will also get the scorn of this mare and nothing is worse than that. But this is his life, a chance to live it at his own will and he will not let anypony dictate who he can love, but at the same he will be vying for Lyra against Bon Bon. Hmm, an unpredictable turn of events came to him and he liked it. “All right Ms. Bon Bon Ah understand.” “Really!? So you will stay away from her then?” A sly grin formed on Big Macintosh’s face before he answered her question. “No! Now please leave, Ah can now care less what you have to say now.” He slams the door in her face before heading back to the kitchen and once back at the kitchen he slammed a hoof on the counter causing Applejack to fall off the couch and land on her face. “She means every word she said, great Ah better watch mah back now and be careful… but I still like surprises.” As Bon Bon walked past the gate of sweet apple acres she stopped to look back at the house again. “You will regret it, Macintosh.” *** “Uhh good morning Twilight…eee oh my head hurts.” Twilight finished setting the food on the table before acknowledging Fluttershy who came down the stairs. “Oh hey Fluttershy are you hungry? Because I got breakfast ready. Come, sit, and eat.” “Thank you Twilight.” Both mares sat down to eat. As Fluttershy ate her eyes kept darting back and forth between her plate and Twilight, how she secretly enjoyed this moment but at the same time she had a deception to keep so she decided to play her hand or hoof in testing Twilight’s outlook. “Hey Twilight…” “Yes Fluttershy?” “About last night uhh I’m sorry if I did anything that made you feel uncomfortable, meep I’m sorry Twilight…I truly am.” Twilight tried to downplay the situation by smiling but truly what Fluttershy did to her last night, really did make her uncomfortable. “Fluttershy don’t worry about it, you were drunk so you didn’t know what you were doing. The alcohol and rainbow spice numbed your judgment…now let’s just finish eating shall we.” “I was never drunk in the first place Twilight…” --- Since this is when Lust starts coming into play I will end with Fluttershy’s thought. And Nightmare Moon asks you if you can please be patient and leave useful feedback.
