The one he cared about

View Online

The early morning sun shone brightly as it bathed Ponyville in its warm glow, signaling the start of yet another beautiful summer day. And for one particular resident of the small town, today was particularly exciting.

With a mighty yawn, the one and only human in Equestria woke up.

His name was Daniel.

Daniel slowly opened his eyes, careful not to stare at his window directly. As luck would have it, Daniel's bedroom window was facing east, and the new curtains he had purchased provided little help against the relentless sun rays.

Grumbling to himself, Daniel slowly crawled out of bed and groggily made his way to the bathroom, beginning his morning rituals.

After a thorough shower, Daniel inspected himself in the mirror above the sink. His beard was starting to get too long for his taste, he would either have to trim it, or shave it completely.

"Well… I suppose for this day I could shave it…" he muttered to himself, picking the straight razor and shaving cream and going through the process of removing his beard.

By the time Daniel finished his business in the bathroom he was slightly more alert and much more excited. Today was a big day for him, as it was for every student in Ponyville.

Daniel rushed downstairs -almost tempted to jump two stairs at a time- before grabbing his case and exiting his home.

Already Daniel could practically feel the excitement in the air. Running his hand through his combed hair, Daniel walked down the streets of Ponyville, greeting ponies as they bid him good morning. A small smile tugged at Daniel's lips as he reached the open market, where ponies were just beginning to set their various stands. One particular stand caught Daniel's eyes as he approached it.

"Good morning, Applejack!" Daniel greeted the farm pony.

"Well if it isn't mah favorite customer! How ya doing partner? Tryin' a new look?"

Daniel chuckled, giving Applejack a hearty hand/hoof shake while using his other hand to feel his now smooth chin and cheeks.

"I thought that a small change was in order, you know, considering the occasion!" Daniel confessed. "I was not this excited when I won that trip to Paradise Island!"

"That great heh? Well shoot, I guess I would be excited as well, Ah know little Apple Bloom couldn't keep her yapper closed all of yesterday."

The two laughed softly, enjoying each other company and idly chatting with each other until Daniel glanced towards his wrist watch and sighed.

"Well, it seems I need to hit the road, lest I'll be late."

"Ah shoot, Ah guess we'll have to continue our talk some other time."

Daniel chuckled, tossing a few bits towards Applejack. She caught them with one hoof while using the other to toss Daniel two apples.

Just barely catching the apples, Daniel stuffed them in his case. "I'll see you later, bye AJ!" Daniel called over his shoulder as he walked with a brisk pace towards his final stop before reaching his destination.

By this time, the rest of Ponyville started to wake up as well. The streets were still somewhat empty but the excited chatter of little foals and even some not-so-little foals could still be heard.

Daniel slowed his pace once he reached a small cottage. It was not too different from his own, perhaps slightly bigger. It had a front yard, something that Daniel did not have.

The human pushed the gate open and followed the road to a small balcony in front of the house. He knocked on the door twice and waited. It did not take long for a voice to call from inside the house.

"Coming…"

A moment later the door swung open, revealing cerise coated mare with a two toned pink mane and tail and bright green eyes.

"Good morning, Daniel! What a pleasant surprise!" Cheerilee smiled brightly.

"Good morning to you too, Cheerilee! I hope I'm not intruding."

Cheerilee waved a dismissive hoof as she stepped outside the house and gave Daniel a hug. "Not at all! I was just about to exit the house myself, it would be nice to have somepony- I mean, someone to talk to on the way to the schoolhouse."

"That's good to hear," Daniel replied as he fished the two apples from his case. "Breakfast?" he offered one of the apples to cheerilee.

"Oh my, you're so sweet Daniel!" Cheerilee grabbed the offered apple and took a small, ladylike bite from it. Daniel took a bite from his apple before the two set course towards the schoolhouse.

Daniel could not help but think back on the time he just started working as a teacher in the Ponyville schoolhouse. It has been well over twenty years since he arrived to Equestria. After the shock has worn off, Daniel spent his first couple of years familiarizing with Equestrian culture and history.

Of course, Daniel could not have possibly hoped to achieve relative normalcy in his life if it were not for the love and support of the Apple family, the oldest, most respected family in all of Ponyville. They took Daniel in when he was just a frightened, eighteen years old man, fed him, and treated him like one of their own. It was about the time Big Mac was born.

In time, Daniel's fascination with Equestrian culture and history turned into a passion of his, and he became quite the scholar for it.

Daniel always wanted to become a teacher, even before coming to Equestria, unfortunately, being a completely different species than everyone else was hindering his quest to find a collage to accept him. Luckily for him, Granny Smith had a lot of connections across Equestria, and thanks to a letter of recommendation from her, Daniel managed to get himself accepted to a prestigious collage in Manehattan.

It was there that he got qualified as a teacher, but it was also the place where he met Cheerilee.

Cheerilee, much like Daniel, was adamant of becoming a teacher, and the two of them became close friends. Daniel was, in fact, the reason why Cheerilee decided to move to Ponyville and teach alongside him here rather than a better paying school in another town. Much like Daniel, she too valued their friendship and wanted to stay in touch. It also did not hurt that Ponyville was a quiet, rural town, something that Cheerilee most enjoyed in her years of living here.

The two chatted among themselves, enjoying each other's company. It was something that they did on a regular basis.

"So, are you excited?" Daniel asked, finishing off his apple and tossing it into a nearby bin.

"Excited about what?" Cheerilee asked cheekily.

Daniel smirked and lightly bumped Cheerilee. "Don't be coy with me, young lady. I expected you to be a lot more excited about another year coming to a close."

Cheerilee chuckled playfully, bumping Daniel in retaliation. "Of course I'm excited you big goof," Cheerilee answered. Then, all of a sudden, her expression had gone somber. "But I'm also a little sad."

Daniel smiled in sympathy, patting Cheerilee on her back. Sure, it was slightly sad that his students graduated from school, but it is something that cannot be avoided, and besides, Daniel was happy for each and every of his students. Seeing them move one step closer towards independence filled his chest with pride.

"Hey, I know," Daniel Started, gaining Cheerilee's attention. "How about we'll go celebrate, tonight, just the two of us?"

Cheerilee smiled gratefully. "I think I would like that, thank you, Daniel."

Daniel shrugged. "No need to thank me, think of it as a friendly gesture."

Cheerilee responded by nuzzling Daniel's side. Daniel smiled and placed a hand on Cheerilee's head and scratched behind her ears. She let out a silent coo and leaned against his hand. The first time Daniel did this Cheerilee nearly bucked him in the groin. That was back in their collage days where they just began to know each other. To rub somepony's ear is a sign of close friendship. As time passed and the two became closer, Cheerilee allowed Daniel to rub her behind the ears and boy if that wasn't the best decision she had made. It was like his hands were made to rub behind the ears, hitting all the right spots that a pony could only dream of feeling with his or hers hooves.

After a while of silent walking the duo reached the schoolhouse, almost as excited as the students who should be arriving in a matter of minutes. Daniel made sure the class was clean and organized while Cheerilee had taken one table outside of the room and pulled from her saddlebags the students' last reports. The idea was that Daniel will look after the students while Cheerilee will talk to one student at a time a give them their last goodbyes.

As the classroom began to fill with excited students, the sounds and murmurs grew louder and louder with each passing moment. Daniel sat on the teacher's desk, looking as the students filled in the classroom, sitting next to their friends and talking to each other. Once the last student entered the classroom, Cheerilee came in as well and closed the door after her. The small buzz of conversation almost ceased entirely as every eye in the classroom was fixed on either Cheerilee or Daniel.

Daniel rose to his full height, looking around the classroom with a bright smile and a small sparkle in his eyes.

"You know," he began. "I have been on last night, thinking about what should I say when I'll see you all today. Unfortunately, nothing came up, and all I could think of was how proud I am in each and every one of you. When you entered these doors on your first year you were confused, curious, and perhaps even slightly scared. Nopony could have prepared you to what laid in wait for you. For the last few years it was Cheerilee's and mine's jobs to shape you to what you are today, not just to be smarter, but to also be better ponies. There was a saying in my world, 'Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for lifetime'.

"Remember, you got the makings of greatness inside of yourselves but you gotta take the helm and chart your own course. Stick to it, no matter the squalls, and when the time comes you get the chance to really test the cut of your sails and show what you're made of, well… I hope I will be there, catching some of the light coming out of you that day."

The class was devoid of any noise, save for a few whimpers of overly emotional stallions and mares. And then, all of a sudden, the entire class rose up on their hooves and dashed towards Daniel, giving him a group hug. Some of the students cried openly as Daniel turned to face Cheerilee, surprise clearly seen on his face as she smiled brightly at him, a few tears running down her own cheeks.

Surprise turned into a heartfelt smile as Daniel crouched down and spread his arms as wide as possible to hug his students back.

"You are the best teachers ever."

"I'll miss you."

"I don't want to graduate school."

A few more student spoke up, each expressing in their own way how much they appreciated all the hard work Daniel and Cheerilee put into teaching them. At some point Cheerilee also joined the group hug, embracing the students directly in front of Daniel. For a moment there, Daniel was not their teacher, and these ponies were not his students. They were his children, and he was their father.

After the students had controlled themselves, Cheerilee decided to start giving each student their reports, calling student after student in an alphabetical order while Daniel recalled some stories from Earth to keep the waiting students occupied.

"…and then, Neil said 'That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."

The whole class ooh'ed as Daniel told them about the first man to ever walk on the moon. The entire class was present, listening with rapt attention to his stories despite the fact that they could have left the moment they got their reports.

"Well class, I guess this is it," Daniel said, earning cries of protest. "I bid you all good luck and good fortune, and remember, it is your job to surpass our generation. I'm counting on you."

All the students then burst into screams of joy and merit as they leapt on their hooves and gave Daniel and Cheerilee the last hugs before stepping outside the schoolhouse for the last time in their lives, leaving Daniel and Cheerilee alone in the classroom.

For a moment the duo simply stood there, smiling sadly at the door.

"I'm going to miss them so much," Cheerily said, a tear trailed down her cheeks.

Daniel chuckled, wiping his own eyes. "Come on Cheerilee, don't say it like that unless you want to see a grown human burst into tears."

Cheerilee chuckled in return, looking around the classroom. "They left this place messy again," she said offhandedly.

Daniel could not contain himself as he laughed merrily. "Some things never change. Come, help me out will you?"

Cheerilee gave Daniel a friendly smile as she helped him clean the classroom. Once the duo was finished they left the schoolhouse as well.

Daniel accompanied Cheerilee all the way to her home, right up until the door step.

"Thanks again for escorting me Daniel. In all my life as a teacher, you were the only thing that stayed with me," Cheerilee confessed once the two reached her home.

Daniel crouched down to Cheerilee's level and gave her a tight hug. "I wouldn't be a very good friend if I wasn't, now do I," he spoke gently.

There was something inside Cheerilee's chest, a warm, tightening feeling that spread across her body. It made her heart to flutter and her hooves to tingle. The feeling lasted throughout the hug, getting more and more intense with each passing second until it came to a screeching halt when Daniel broke the hug, straitening his back.

Cheerilee lifted her gaze towards Daniel and her breath was caught in her throat, suddenly seeing her friend since collage in an entire different light. She traced his combed dark brown hair with a few white hairs here and there that gave him a mature appeal. She examined his slightly tanned skin, smooth and furless. She studied his impossibly small, beady eyes that seem to convey so much emotion despite their size.

And then there was the way he dressed. He always dressed formally during his work days. He even dressed when meeting with friends outside of work. It gave Daniel a mysterious appearance that, quite suddenly, intrigued and aroused Cheerilee.

"…sounds good?"

Cheerilee was only vaguely aware that Daniel spoke, paying more attention to her newly found fascination with her longtime friend.

"Umm, I'm sorry but can you repeat that?" Cheerilee asked sheepishly, earning a look of confusion from Daniel.

"Ah… sure. I asked if you are comfortable with me picking you up at seven thirty for our celebration tonight."

"Oh, yes that's perfect!" Cheerilee replied a tad too hastily.

Daniel smiled widely, showing his distinct looking teeth. "Great! Oh, and before I forget, wear something nice."

"Why? Where are we going?" Cheerilee asked.

Daniel's smile turned cheeky and he turned around and started walking. "It's a surprise," he called back.

Cheerilee stood at the entrance to her home, her eyes following Daniel until he was no longer visible, before she promptly rushed into home and closed the door shut. There was a tingling feeling in her loins that refused to be ignored as Cheerilee entered her bedroom and laid on her bed, her mind went a mile a minute as her hooves traced small circles on her belly.

Why she suddenly felt she attracted to Daniel? She has never felt like that about him before. He was not even a pony for crying out loud!

Cheerilee's hoof accidentally brushed against her erect nipple, sending jolts of pleasure across her body, making her moan as she closed her eyes shut. She then brought her second hoof to play with the other nipple, tracing circles around the sensitive flesh.

Her lower half felt like it was on fire as Cheerilee extended her hoof towards her night dresser, fishing a certain phallic shaped object from it as her other hoof played with her lowed lips.

She brought the dildo close to her mouth began to lick it with earnest, moaning as her hoof brushed against her delicate clit. Suddenly, the image of Daniel jumped to the front of Cheerilee's mind, causing her eyes to snap open as her clit winked harder than before, causing the moan to turn into a shrill cry of pleasure.

As the embers of her will began to die, Cheerilee brought the properly lubed dildo closer to her marehood. She closed her eyes again, imagining it was Daniel's rod that rubbed her most private of places, teasing her to no end with his delicate fingers.

She could almost feel the phantom touch of his fingers teasing her clit, grunting into her ear as the air around the two grew musky and hot, a few beads of sweat trailed down Cheerilee's face, fantasizing about Daniel's tongue licking the sweat off her neck, occasionally biting, trailing little love bites all the way to her lips, where the two would meet in a passionate kiss.

"Ohhhh~ Daniel…" Cheerilee moaned, inserting the first inch of the dildo into herself. Cheerilee began to breath more heavily as she pushed the dildo deeper and deeper, furiously rubbing her clit with the other hoof.

In Cheerilee's mind, Daniel was hunched down on top of her, grunting into her ear, telling her how wonderful she feels while thrusting in and out of her like a crazed rabbit.

As the air grew even muskier and her breaths came out as either gasps or moans, Cheerilee felt a certain pressure building in her loins. She quickened her pace, the wet squelching of a dildo moving past her walls spurring her onwards. It was then that Cheerilee pressed a button on the Dildo's other end, making it vibrate.

"AHHHH, Y-YES, HARDER DANIEL! FASTER!" Cheerilee screamed, biting down on her own hoof to muffle her screams of utter euphoria.

The pressure in her loins grew even more intense. Cheerilee knew she was close. In a last ditch of effort she rolled on her bed, lifted her flank high into the air, and screamed into her pillow as she was driven over the edge. Clear liquid rushed past the vibrating dildo, staining the mattress below with mare cum.

Cheerilee let her body fall limp on the bed, extracting the dildo from her used and abused pussy as she rode her orgasm. Her breaths were heavy and labored and the air around her had a mix of sweat, musk, and mare cum.

Deciding she had enough. Cheerilee opened the window to her bedroom, venting the room. She turned around and looked with awe at the mess on her bed.

In all of her life, Cheerilee had never left such a big stain after a masturbation session. Was it because she was thinking of Daniel? It must be.

Deciding to push these feelings for later, Cheerilee went through the process of changing her sheets. She could not get distracted. After all, she had a date- a celebration! A celebration with Daniel! Not a date! Celebration! Date no, celebration yes!

Cheerilee checked the clock on her night dresser. It read two o'clock. Cheerilee groaned.

It is going to be a long day…


Knock knock knock

Cheerilee lifted her gaze from the book she was 'reading', her eyes slightly wide before she gulped a lump in her throat.

"Who is it?" she called.

"Cheerilee it's me, Daniel. Are you ready?" Daniel called back.

"Give me a minute," Cheerilee replied, standing up from her seat on the couch and checking herself in a full body mirror. She wore a lavish light green dress that she reserved for special occasions, her mane was combed to perfection, and she even applied a minimal amount of make-up, not wanting to go all out since she did not know where Daniel planned on taking her.

After making sure she was ready, Cheerilee finally approached the entrance to her home and opened the door.

Her eyes could not have become bigger.

"Daniel… um… wow…"

Daniel smiled, spreading his arms to the side and looking down at himself. He wore a nice dark grey overcoat with a black suit jacket underneath and matching suit trousers. Even his hair was pulled into a small ponytail. At first Cheerilee was slightly startled by Daniel's formal appearance, but she quickly reminded herself that Daniel wore clothes all the time, not to mention that he did not have a coat to keep him warm during these cold winter nights.

"I'll take it as a compliment. I must say, you look amazing yourself. I don't think I've ever seen you wearing anything."

Cheerilee formed a genuine smile as she spoke up, "Thank you Daniel, it means a lot coming from a man who wears clothes wherever he goes," she finished with a teasing tone.

Daniel chuckled. "Well aren't we in a sassy mood tonight," he said as he began walking with Cheerilee in tow.

"So… mind telling me where we're going?" Cheerilee looked up at Daniel with her head cocked to the side.

Daniel merely shook his head, his mouth contorted into a smirk. "As a wise stallion once said; 'nnope'."

"You know I don't like surprises." Cheerilee pouted.

"I know, and that's exactly the reason why I'm not telling you."

Cheerilee snorted, bumping into Daniel and staying by his side, letting his hand hover carefully across her mane and behind her ears. "You are the most cruel human in Equestria, I hope you know that," she said, slightly distracted by his hands.

Daniel sighed dramatically, his hand momentarily left Cheerilee and draped across his forehead. "Oh woe my cursed life, for I have been declared a fiend by a fair maiden! May Luna strike me down where I stand, if only to end my meaningless life, as a final act of kindness!"

Cheerilee put a hoof on her mouth as she snickered lightly. Daniel always appeared as the epitome of professionalism. To see him act like this was rare and amusing.

Daniel glanced towards Cheerilee with a smirk, his hand returned to rub her behind her ears. It was a bit of a walk before the two reached an establishment of some sorts, located on a large hill between Ponyville and the Everfree forest.

Wait, the establishment was not located on the hill but rather built inside of it!

"The Everfree Moon?" Cheerilee read the sign. "I think I've heard of this place. It's some kind of restaurant is it?" Cheerilee looked up at Daniel for confirmation.

"Indeed it is. The Everfree Moon is a restaurant built inside of this hill and is operated only at night. I thought it would be the perfect place for us to celebrate."

Cheerilee was unsure about it. She heard nothing but good things about the Everfree Moon, but it was a bit on the pricy side, and Celestia knows how much money she earns as a teacher.

As if reading her mind, Daniel slowly rubbed at the tip of Cheerilee's ear before tugging it slightly, gaining her attention. "Don't worry Cheerilee. I was the one who invited you to celebrate, so I'll take care of the expenses." Cheerilee was about to protest when Daniel lifted his hand. "And don't even think about saying otherwise."

Cheerilee looked away from Daniel, a small blush adorned her cheeks. "You truly are the sweetest human, Daniel," she whispered.

"And don't you forget it," Daniel joked, opening the door to the restaurant and gesturing Cheerilee to follow him.

The duo entered to a waiting area of some sort, illuminated by crystals hanging above the ceiling. Next to them, behind a wooden podium, stood a bat pony mare, her eyes stopped their lazy trek across the newspaper she was holding to look at the two, which then widened in awe. Remembering herself, the mare stood a little straighter before addressing Cheerilee and Daniel with a smile.

"Welcome to the Everfree Moon! Do you have a reservation?" the mare asked excitedly.

Daniel stepped up. "Yes, my name is Daniel Anderson. I reserved a table for two."

The hostess flipped through a small notebook lying on the podium before addressing Daniel again. "Ah yes! Welcome back Mr. Anderson. We have your table ready. Also, we could take your coat if you ever so desire."

Daniel smiled gratefully, taking off his overcoat before handing it over to the hostess. She took the overcoat before quickly disappearing through a hidden door behind the podium, only to emerge soon afterwards. "This way please," she called leading Daniel and Cheerilee through a set of wooden double doors with a detailed profile of Princess Luna carved into them.

When the two finally passed the threshold into the restaurant proper, it was like stepping into a scene from fairy tale.

The entire place was, as expected, carved into the hill, but unlike other suffocating and poorly lit caves, this one was large and illuminated entirely by crystals. At the very center of the cave there was a round stage where a group of musicians played live music, adding to the atmosphere.

Cheerilee's thoughts were interrupted when she felt a hand on her withers. She looked up and saw Daniel's smiling face. "Well? Thoughts, opinions, complaints? Or should I take your silence as an answer?"

Finding her voice, Cheerilee replied, "Daniel… this is all too much. I cannot in good conscious allow you to pay all this by yourself!"

"Then it appears that we're at an impasse, for you see, I am a very stubborn human." Daniel chuckled, savoring the frown on Cheerilee's face. Eventually, the hostess led the two to a nice table, far enough from the rest of the diners, yet close enough so the music still reached their ears. Daniel pulled a chair back, looking at Cheerilee expectedly. The mare was thankful that her dark coat and dim lighting masked her blush as she hopped on the chair, her shoulders briefly brushed against Daniel's fingers as he pushed her chair in. Once she was all set Daniel plopped on the chair in front of her. The hostess handed the two the menus and resumed her post at the entrance, leaving Cheerilee and Daniel alone.

"I must say," Daniel spoke up. "When Lyra suggested me to take you here to celebrate I did not expect this." He gestured around here.

Cheerilee nodded, looking around as well. "I know exactly what you mean. Lyra can be a little…"

"Loud?"

"Yes, exactly!"

"Still, I'm glad I took her advice. Now I wonder if their alcohol selection is as good as everyone says."

~Four hours later and some questionable amounts of liquid courage~

"And then… and then I said to him-" Daniel paused mid-sentence, giggling like a schoolboy, Cheerilee did not fare much better. "If you don't put what units of measurement you are using I'm going to assume you are talking cats per donuts." The two laughed merrily, both were red in the cheeks and half empty wine glasses in their grasp.

After regaining some self-control, Cheerilee drank the rest of her glass, smiling widely. "I must say Daniel, it was truly a- *hiccup* -truly a wonderful night. I'm so glad to have such a good friend such as you."

Hearing that, Daniel deflated a bit, not that Cheerilee noticed in her drunken state. "Cheerilee," Daniel spoke up, his tone serious.

"Hmm, yeeeeeees…" Cheerilee slurred, giggling.

"Cheerilee look at me."

Cheerilee lifted her gaze from the bottom of her wine glass towards Daniel. His eyes, once filled with merit and joy, were now devoid of any emotion. Cheerilee's demeanor did a one eighty, her worry for her friend was stronger than any alcohol.

"Is everything okay, Daniel?" Cheerilee asked, laying a hoof on the back of Daniel's hand.

Daniel sighed, averting his eyes from Cheerilee briefly before setting back on them. "Cheerilee, there's something I need to tell you. Remember when I told you years ago that the princesses were looking for a way to send me back home?"

Thinking very hard, Cheerilee did manage to recall that specific memory. "I think I do. Why?" she asked, dread filling her stomach.

Instead of answering, Daniel fished something from an inner pocket inside of his suit and handed it to Cheerilee. It was a letter.

Very carefully, Cheerilee unfurled the letter and began reading.

Dear Daniel,

I am pleased to tell you that after many years and some research, I have found a way to bring you back to your own world. However, our window of opportunity is tiny. There must be specific conditions in order to send you back into your world and unless you come to Canterlot tomorrow, you may have to wait another twenty years in order to ever see your world again.

Please send me a reply as soon as you get this letter. I apologize for inconveniences this may cause.

Yours Sincerely,

Princess Celestia.

The words on the letter sobered Cheerilee up like a bucket of ice cold water.

"Y-You're leaving?" she whispered.

"Cheerilee I-"

"Is this why you've taken me for this restaurant?! So you can tell me nicely that you're leaving and I'll never see you again?!" Tears started to well up in Cheerilee's eyes.

"Cheerilee if you only listen-"

"Don't! Just. Don't! I-I thought that you will stay with me! I thought that you care about me! I thought-"

"Cheerilee I refused!" Daniel interrupted, grabbing Cheerilee's hoof tightly.

Still sniffling, Cheerilee used her free hoof to wipe her eyes. "What?"

Daniel smiled sadly, gesturing towards the letter. "Look at the date at the top of the page."

Following his instructions, Cheerilee let her eyes roam to the top of the page. "It was sent… a week ago…"

"Exactly Cheerilee. I refused. I decided to stay here." Daniel used his other hand to cup Cheerilee's cheek, using his thumb to wipe the few remaining tears from her face. "Cheerilee, listen… I think that deep down you knew this was more than a celebration. When Celestia sent me that letter I already knew my response. I have a life here, friends, and a job. I couldn't just leave it all behind for a world that is probably not the same. It has been twenty years since I last saw Earth. Most of my friends have probably moved on with their lives, and I could only hope that so is my family. But even after all that, all these reasons pale in comparison for my last revelation." Daniel squeezed Cheerilee's hoof. "I want us to be more than just friends Cheerilee, this current relationship is not enough for me anymore."

"Daniel… I-"

"I don't say that I love you, only stupid people say that so suddenly, but… I do want to try it with you. For a long time I felt like this, ever before Celestia sent me that letter, but I've never acted upon these feelings out of fear that I might scare you away. When I got that letter it sobered me up. So please, all I ask of you is that you will be open to that idea, despite the fact that I'm a human and you're a- mmmph!"

Daniel's sentence was cut short when Cheerilee leaned forward and slammed her lips into his. Moving a hoof to cup his cheek, Cheerilee felt the need behind the kiss, the want to know each other like never before.

She would be lying if she said that she was not interested. There had been few occasions that Cheerilee toyed with the idea, but she quickly dismissed them, thinking that Daniel was not into ponies.

The two broke the kiss simultaneously, slightly panting, both of their faces were as red as wine.

Still somewhat dazed, Daniel spoke up, "I'll take that as a yes."

Cheerilee averted her gaze from Daniel, slightly embarrassed. "O-Oh my, I don't know what came over me. I'm usually not that forward."

"Well I am," Daniel replied, using his hand to turn Cheerilee's head to face him and planting his lips on hers. The kiss was shorter than the last one, but not less passionate.

"So what now?" Cheerilee asked after the two leaned back in their chairs.

"We take it slow, see where this relationship takes us," Daniel answered. "And under any circumstances, we must never, ever, ever do something too hasty…"


The door to Daniel's home swung open as Daniel and Cheerilee tumbled in, making out and barely looking to where they were going. Cheerilee Had her front hooves around Daniel's neck, her tongue battled with his. Daniel had his arms on Cheerilee's waist, going up and down, enjoying the furry texture of her body.

Daniel bumped into the wall but did not break the kiss. Instead, he grabbed Cheerilee's flanks and lifted her up, much to her surprise and excitement. Cracking a single eye open, Daniel navigated through his dark home, going up the stairs and all but burst into his bedroom.

Daniel sat on his bed before the two finally broke the kiss.

"Didn't you say… not being too hasty…?" Cheerilee said between gasps.

"Yes I did," Daniel replied, lifting one hand off of Cheerilee before bringing it back down on her ass with a resonating 'smack'. "And I don't give a fuck."

Cheerilee trembled, overcome by desire. Her dress was all but flung across the room. Suddenly she leaned aggressively on Daniel, making him fall on his bed. Turning around, Cheerilee started to unbutton Daniel's trousers. With a harsh yank Daniel's trousers came off.

Only to reveal a pair of boxers.

"How many clothes do a single human need?!" Cheerilee asked in amazement and slight annoyance.

Daniel smiled coyly, spreading Cheerilee's flanks and getting an unobstructed view of her marehood. "Why don't you find out?"

Before she could reply, Daniel ran his tongue across Cheerilee's lower lips, making her mind go completely blank as she moaned. Using his thumbs, Daniel spread Cheerilee's open, sticking his tongue inside as far as possible.

Daniel ran his tongue all over Cheerilee's lower half. He teased her opening by licking around it, and then he used the flat of his tongue to lick her labia from bottom to top, flicking her clit. He then spread her open even more, driving his tongue far inside of her. His nose was buried in her clit, sending hot air across it and making Cheerilee moan.

Hooves betraying her, Cheerilee let her body go limp. She had never experienced something like this with a stallion before. In what his tongue lacked in length, Daniel compensated with precision and dexterity. One of his thumbs went to play with her clit while the other one poked and prodded around her puckered hole, sending jolts of pleasure across the mare's spine.

Getting restless, Daniel thrusted his covered erection, begging for attention. Cheerilee giggled before using her teeth to uncover her prize. Once the boxers were removed, Daniel's raging boner sprung up, bopping Cheerilee on her muzzle. Fighting the urge to moan each time Daniel assaulted her depths Cheerilee gave a long lick from bottom all the way to the top of Daniel's member before clamping her mouth around his head, sucking lightly.

Daniel groaned, momentarily lost in pleasure before resuming eating Cheerilee up. The mare could feel a familiar pressure build inside of her as she took more of Daniel into herself, her warm breathing washing over Daniel's balls.

Cheerilee could smell his musk as she bobbed her head up and down on Daniel's member, she often pulled almost entirely, leaving only the tip inside her as she would suck on it like a lollipop, which in turn made Daniel moan into her needy cunt.

In a final attempt to drive Cheerilee over the edge, Daniel placed his thumb directly on top of Cheerilee's tail hole and applied pressure until the appendage disappeared inside the tight confines.

Overwhelmed by pleasure assaulting both of her holes, Cheerilee let out a muffled scream as she came harder than ever before, drenching Daniel's mouth and chin with her fluids. The room was engulfed in the smell of sex and sweat as both parties breathed heavily. Cheerilee released Daniel from her mouth and laid her head next to it, her eyes glazed over and her hind hooves shivering.

Daniel wiped the fluids from his face and craned his head to look at Cheerilee. "You know, as much as I like to hear you moan, Daniel Jr. needs some love too."

Cheerilee lightly slapped his member, making it swing back and bop her in the nose. After a few more shaky breaths Cheerilee spun around, facing Daniel and straddling his waist. She grinded herself on him, enjoying the feeling of her sensitive entrance against his well lubricated member. Daniel grabbed her waist, looking lovingly into Cheerilee's eyes as she slowly descended on him.

Daniel hissed as he slowly buried himself inside Cheerilee's tight embrace, her inner muscles massaging his member in a way he could not fathom. When Cheerilee bottomed out, she moaned loudly, enjoying the filling of being full. The two simply stayed like this, breathing heavily the smell of manly musk and feminine want.

Daniel slowly lifted Cheerilee up until only the tip of him remained inside of Cheerilee, before slamming her back down.

"Ohhhhhhhh~" Cheerilee moaned loudly, her upper half falling on top of Daniel's chest. She lifted her head just enough to give Daniel a peck and a lick on the chin before Daniel lifted her up again and slammed her down, resulting in a wet smack that resonated across the room.

"You're so damn tight Cheerilee," Daniel grunted, sinking his fingers into Cheerilee's flanks. Cheerilee responded by licking the sweat from his chest and face, relishing in the salty taste and Daniel pumped her silly.

The room was filled with the sounds of wet smacks as Daniel pumped faster and harder, reducing Cheerilee into a mumbling mess as she moaned and cried his name over and over until she could no longer had the strength to do even that. And just as Cheerilee was about to reach the very peak to what would have been the mother of all orgasms, Daniel stopped.

Before she could even voice her disappointment, Cheerilee felt two strong arms wrapping around her barrel and lift her off the bed. Next thing she knew, Cheerilee was pinned against the wall, looking into Daniel's wild and lust-filled eyes. Twenty years of pent up stress, twenty years not knowing the touch of a female, twenty agonizing years. At that moment, Daniel was no longer himself, he was no longer human. Instead, he was an animal whose sole purpose is to mate.

Daniel looked down at Cheerilee, her eyes were filled with the same lust that reflected from his own, with just a bit of fear that served to fan the roaring flames of her libido.

Cheerilee's nethers quivered in anticipation as Daniel grinded himself against her lower lips.

"Cheerilee," he grunted. "Fuck… this is the best thing ever, I don't want it to end…"

Cheerilee cupped both of Daniel's cheeks, surprising the human with a passionate kiss. She forcefully pried his mouth open and lashed against his tongue. Meanwhile, Daniel could take no more as he all but rammed himself into Cheerilee.

The mare screamed into his mouth, clamping down on his member, trying to milk it for all it was worth.

The two broke the kiss and stared into each other. They were no more than animals with no rational thinking or sober thought. All that remained was the need of each other's touch. Daniel leaned against Cheerilee and out of primal instinct bit her neck, sending new waves of pleasure down Cheerilee's spine as he fucked her senseless.

She could feel it coming, her orgasm was coming back with a vengeance and she was powerless to stop it even if she wanted to. All that Cheerilee could do was feel the smooth, sweaty body pressed against her, the heaving of Daniel's breathing as he rammed into her pussy with a passion that would rival Cadance herself.

She could feel every ridge and vain on his member as Daniel pumped into her. Each time he pulled out, Cheerilee tried to keep him inside, and every time he rammed back inside he would graze her clit.

Cheerilee could no longer contain herself as she screamed, using all of her hooves to cling onto Daniel as she came like never before, it was like the waves of a stormy ocean, crashing relentlessly against the shore.

Slowly, Daniel extracted himself from Cheerilee, releasing a torrent of mare cum on his thighs as he gently put Cheerilee down before sitting against the wall, enjoying the cool feeling on his back.

It has taken Cheerilee some time to catch her breath and when she did, she looked over at Daniel, or more precisely, Daniel's still erect member.

"You… didn't came?" she asked, suddenly feeling self-conscious about herself and her body.

Daniel quickly shook his head. "No, from what I understand stallions have a lot less stamina than humans, but… I'm too tired to move. I'm not as young as I once was. I'm sorry Cheerilee. I must look pathetic right now."

Cheerilee smiled gently, walking up to Daniel and nuzzling his cheek. "I don't think you are pathetic Daniel. You are charming, sweet, caring, and by far the best partner I've ever had."

Daniel chuckled weakly, still breathing heavily. "That's a nice stroke to my ego."

Cheerilee smiled cheekily, lowering herself until she was face to face with the object of her desire.

Slowly, Cheerilee licked the base of Daniel's member, going up the shaft and ending with a loving kiss on the crown. Daniel's breathing started to pick up again as Cheerilee licked his member, but never putting it in her mouth. She worked on every bit of exposed skin, feeling every vain and throb, Daniel's grunts were like music to her ears.

"Cheerilee…" Daniel gasped. "I can't… I can't take it much longer…"

Cheerilee smiled cheekily as her tongue circled across the crown before taking the entire thing down her throat. A long groaned escaped Daniel's mouth as Cheerilee sucked for all she was worth coaxing Daniel into sweet, sweet release.

Daniel could take it no more as he felt the last of his inhibitions crumbled. Grabbing Cheerilee on the head, he kept himself buried inside her and he shot rope after rope of sticky juice, coating Cheerilee's throat white.

Cheerilee swallowed audibly, visible lumps went down her throat and into her tummy. She swallowed as much as she can but there was just too much cum. Cheerilee recoiled back as she let Daniel's member pop from her mouth, the last strands of his cum landing on her face and mane.

Basking in the afterglow, Daniel was simply content laying on the floor, breathing heavily as Cheerilee used her hooves and tongue to get all the excess cum that she missed.

"The was… amazing…" Daniel said between gasps.

"I'll say, were that pent up the whole time?" Cheerilee asked.

Daniel shook his head. "Nah, I had miss palm and her five daughters when I was feeling a little pent up." Daniel wiggled his right hand. "But lately I was way too busy, what with the end of school's year and what not."

"Well either way, I'm glad I could share this experience with you," Cheerilee responded, moving to sit on Daniel's lap. Daniel chuckled, moving his finger to wipe a drop of cum of Cheerilee's nose, but before he could wipe it off Cheerilee grabbed his arm and sucked on his finger, running her tongue across the appendage.

Once she deemed the finger clean Cheerilee let Daniel pull his hand back, his eyes were wide.

"Hey Daniel," Cheerilee spoke in a sultry tone, her gaze was half lidded.

"Ah hah?" Daniel responded, dumbfounded.

"Wanna go again?"

Cheerilee's answer was an erect dick between her flanks…
