--Chapter 29--
Morning After
It was the third time when Twilight woke up feeling another warm body pressed against her. It was strange for her to know that all the previous times, part of her that was getting smaller with each day, wanted her to evacuate as fast as possible. It was strange, because of how good it now felt to just lay there with half conscious mind and let the naked human that laid beside her with arms wrapped tightly around her stay where he was. She herself had her head placed on his shoulder, breathing peacefully as she absorbed the heat coming off of him.
A smile appeared on her muzzle as her memories came back to her and she released a silent sigh as she thought about the previous night. She could feel the smell of sweat coming off of him. It was a strange smell, but she always thought it was nice despite Revan saying it’s not at every occasion. This made no sense to her. Why would he want to get rid of such a good smell?
She opened one eye to scan the room. The sun was already up, lighting up the room and quickly making her close her eyes again to shield them from the light. She knew that Revan would have to get up soon to feed the animals downstairs, but she had no plans to leave the bed until then. It was way too nice to just do that. After cuddling closer to him she felt as he slowly starts to move his hand up to her neck.
Her eyes opened again when he started to massage it and quickly she moved her head off of his shoulder and looked at his face. He wasn’t sleeping, instead looking at her with a smile. “H-Hi.” She said with a blush appearing on her face.
“Hi.” He replied, pulling her closer for a quick kiss. “Any regrets?”
She didn’t answer right away, instead returning the kiss with a bit more passion. “No. Last night was… nice.”
He chuckled. “Nice? Why only that?”
“I feel like you could have done more, that’s all.” She said jokingly and started to muzzle his neck, kissing it lightly every now and then. In response Revan did the same.
“I could, but it seemed like you couldn’t take more anyways. I mean, at the end you were practically unconscious, and eventually you did pass out.” With arms still wrapped around her, he rolled them over so that he was lying on top of her.
“Alright, I guess it was great then…” They kissed again. “But just because I was about to pass out doesn’t mean you had to stop…” She whispered into his ear.
He raised his eyebrow. “Damn, you really are the kinkiest girl I’ve ever met. And that’s saying something.” For the last time before getting up, Revan kissed his mare, deeply and passionately but at the same time slowly. He left the bed and started to put on fresh clothes while Twilight attempted to get a hold on her legs, which seemed to deny her commands. Even once she managed to leave the bed, her moves were still a bit shakily, especially with her rear hooves. “If you want, I can carry you around for a bit.” He said with a smirk as he put a shirt on.
“Well, I guess it would be fair since you’re the one who got me in that state to begin with, but…” She approached him, still having problems with walking straight. “I want ponies to know…” She rubbed herself against his leg, blushing madly when she realized what she just said.
“I think that bite mark on your neck will give it away to most ponies.” He ruffled her already mess mane. “I guess I can add exhibitionism to your kinks list.” A blush appeared on her face as she realized what she just said. “And with the way you were screaming, I must say that I’m glad I made you come here. Spike’s not the only one who you would wake up with that.”
“W-Was it that bad?” She said, lowering her head in embarrassment. “I’m sorry for that, I just can’t stop myself.”
“It was bad in a sense that my ears are still ringing a bit, but I must say that it was kinda hot to say the least. You just have to work on you vocabulary a bit, because to me screaming ‘claim my womb’ sounds like bad porn or hentai.”
“What’s hentai?”
“…you don’t want to know. Now come on, I have to feed the animals and make breakfast for us.” He led her to the bathroom where he gave her a spare toothbrush. He decided to quickly shave his growing beard to not look older then he actually is, while Twilight started to observe this new to her procedure. Ponies rarely grow beards and when they do it’s usually very old stallions for whom it’s still a very slow process, so seeing someone grow it as fast as he does is quite an oddity for ponies.
When they were done, Revan started to feed each animal that lives in or around the cottage as he usually does with Fluttershy. Twilight wanted to help, but in the end she didn’t really know what to do so she just carried the food on her back while chatting with Revan. “By the way, why isn’t Fluttershy here?” She asked while he threw a piece of meat to Harry the bear.
“She’s visiting her adoptive parents in Cloudsdale.”
“Adoptive? She was adopted?” She sounded surprised.
“Yeah, I can’t say I didn’t expect that. I keep hearing quite a lot of seriously bad stuff about her father. If what Vinyl was hinting at is true, physical abuse was not the worst that happened.”
“Do you know anything more about it? She never told me anything.”
“Well, I don’t know much either, she’s not exactly open about it and I know for a fact that the files about the whole case are not within my reach, I’d need a personal approval from the Princess and she doesn’t just give those to whoever wants one without a good reason. Me being her friend doesn’t change anything. The entire case was kept as far away from the public as possible and the only reason why there even are records of it in media is because the guy was on a run for almost a year and ponies in charge of the case decided to get help from the public, which eventually got the guy captured. Now he’s sitting in prison with the first life sentence in hundreds of years.”
“Now that you mention it, I do remember hearing a bit about it when I was young. Wait, is this the reason why ponies in Ponyville are so mean to Fluttershy!?”
“Yeah, some ponies from Cloudsdale who knew about the whole thing moved here around the time she did, and this pretty much fucked up her reputation to the point when she had rocks thrown at her.” Twilight gasped. “Good thing that the morons who did that got arrested and used as an example, from then on she had relative peace but was forced to move here. She was thrown out of a house she was renting. This place was actually a complete mess from what she told me. It was barely livable back then and it took her a while to turn this cottage into the place it is now. Heh, who would expect that a mare like her knows so much about this stuff.”
“Doesn’t she have any other relatives though?”
“I know that she has two brothers, mother is probably dead.” He purposely gave Angel a smaller carrot while giving the other bunnies the big ones. The little devil was of course going to try stealing one of the big carrots for himself, so Revan has left Mischief to keep him in his basket (which was still wet after last night).
“What about her adoptive parents, couldn’t they help her?”
“They have a son of their own, and from what Fluttershy have told me, this guy is a fucking moron who can’t get absolutely anything done right and had a crush on Rainbow. Or still has, I don’t remember. Anyways, she never told them that she’s also being persecuted in here to not make them worry. In fact, her currant visit is because of that. I made her go to them and explain the situation.”
“I would think that if you suggested that to her, you would want to come along. Why didn’t you go?”
“They live in Cloudsdale, how the hell would I even get there?” He was by now done with feeding the animals, and proceeded to work in the kitchen. Since Fluttershy wasn’t here to help him, he was forced to do something simple, which in this case were scrambled eggs and toasts. I really need to invest into a cooking book or something…
“So you did want to go there. Well, you could have just say so! I know spells that can make non-pegasi walk on clouds.”
“And how are you going to use them on me?”
“Simple.” She puffed her chest proudly. “I can just put the spell on your clothes and you’ll be fine. I also have a special powder that will attach itself to your body, I can enchant it easily. Same goes for Mischief. In fact it would be easier for him since he has a lot of fur.” She lightly patted the dog who was holding the bunny down with one paw, clearly having fun. He looked at the mare and licked her muzzle, making her step away.
“Well, then I guess I should have thought about it. Still, she said that she wants to invite them over here, so I can help her then. And smack some sense into her brother if I’ll get a chance. If he’s half as lazy as she’s made him out to be, then there will be no mercy for him.” The eggs were almost ready, so he stated preparing toasts. Two for each of them. “Could you put that on the table?” He turned off the gas and pulled out two plates. “I’ll take out something to drink.”
She nodded and placed the plates on the table after putting eggs on them. Revan meanwhile went down to the basement, returning after a moment. He was holding a jar in his hand as he came out and immediately walked back to the kitchen. Twilight looked in there, seeing as he empties the contents of the jar into a jug , adding about the same amount of water. “What is that?” She asked.
“I should have expected you to not know.” He placed the jug in the table and sat down. “What I have here is my self made apple compote. I’ve already prepared over twenty jars about this size, but that’s just the beginning.”
“What do you mean?” She said as Revan handed her a glass of the compote.
“That I had no time to take care of making as much as I usually would. I plan to make at least two times what I have now out of apples, and then move to other things. Cherries, plums, mirabelles, pears and so on. Then I’m going to prepare apple muse, more pickles, carrots, beans, raspberries, beets, and in the end I’ll get some jams done.” He started eating after explaining. “Oh, and if I manage to get a hold on Applejack’s juicer I’ll also prepare some juices.”
“Why so much? Not that doesn’t taste good, I just don’t think you can drink and eat it all before it spoils.”
“Heh, typical of someone who lived in a big town their entire life, especially a place like Canterlot… I’m making this all for the winter. I’ll keep it tightly closed in jars in the basement until then. Actually what I plan on doing this time will not even be half of what I usually make. You should see the basement of my old house back on earth. There’s a shit ton of that stuff back there.”
They continued to eat as they chatted with each other deciding to rest before they went to the lake where Revan promised to teach Twilight how to swim. They laid on the couch together. Twilight was lying on his chest with her hooves placed limply on human’s shoulders. Revan was meanwhile rubbing her ear with one hand while the other hugged her tightly. “Hmm… I wish I could just stay like that forever…” She muttered.
“Lying down like that for an eternity would be pretty boring, don’t you think so?”
“You know what I meant.”
As they relaxed together, Mischief walked over to the couch and placed his muzzle on Revan’s shoulder. Both Revan and Twilight started to lightly pat the dog’s head, to which he replied by licking Revan’s face. The human wiped the dog’s drool off of himself and decided to get up. He placed Twilight down on the couch and she lied down herself. “I’ll clean the dishes and then we’ll go to the lake, ok?”
“Mhm…” She closed her eyes and lied her head on the pillow. Revan picked up the plates and glasses from the table and took them to the sink, where he cleaned them along with the pan.
When he got back from the kitchen, Twilight was still lying relaxed on the couch, with a big smile on her face. Mischief was also lying on the couch, on the opposite side to Twilight. “Alright, we’re heading out.” He said and the two almost immediately started to rise their heads. They got up from the bed and both approached the human. Mischief just stood there next to him, while Twilight moved in for a quick kiss.
Revan grabbed two towels from the bathroom and left the cottage with Twilight and Mischief following. The moment he walked out, Revan grabbed a thick piece of wood with visible fang marks all over it and showed it to Mischief. The dog immediately threw himself at the piece of wood, almost catching it. Revan then threw the stick towards the lake that could be seen from here.
The dog returned to them shortly, completely soaked with water. Revan grabbed the edges of the stick and started to pull it while Mischief did the same. Even though Mischief was very strong as far as dogs go, he was still no match for Revan who quickly started to gain the upper hand and managed to get the stick out of the dog's mouth. He immediately started to run towards the lake and the dog happily run after him.
He quickly caught up to the human and run between his legs to make him fall over. Revan however reacted fast enough to save himself from landing on the ground and used his hands to walk as the stick was held between his feet. Mischief was of course smart enough to not fall for the trick Revan tends to use in those situations, and instead of leaping at the stick, he made another attempt at making the human fall over.
This time, he succeeded, but unfortunately wasn't quick enough to get the stick away from Revan who managed to grab it before he did and threw it into the lake. "You two sure seem to enjoy yourselves." Revan looked back, still lying on the ground. Twilight approached him and kissed lightly before walking above him. "When does Fluttershy come back anyways?"
"I dunno, she said she might be back tomorrow or a day after that." They were already close to the lake so Revan started to take off his clothes.
"What is that thing there by the way?" She pointed at a small wooden building a bit behind the cottage.
"That's Fluttershy's shed. I don't know what's inside cause she always tells me to not go in there. No idea why, but let's be honest, it's not like she's hiding a secret stash of dead animals there." You would have to be a freaking psycho to think she would... Though I guess you never expect the silent ones... Damn it what am I thinking about, I was supposed to teach Twi how to swim, not think about what she's hiding in the shed.
"Well, we're here. What now?" Twilight asked.
Revan took off his pants, making the mare blush despite what they were doing the previous day. "Now we go inside." He started to walk into the cold water while Mischief was having fun in the water on his own. "Come on, I'll hold you until we figure something out." She nodded and started to walk into the water herself. She flinched at how cold the water was, but slowly managed to walk over to Revan. She was already standing on her back hooves while Revan still had his chest dry when he grabbed her front hooves and started to pull her deeper.
She soon lost the feeling of ground under her hooves. Revan pulled her closer to him, and moved deeper into the lake, until he couldn’t feel the ground either. Twilight pulled herself closer to the human, starting to panic. “Hey, calm down. It’s not like I’m going to just leave you here and see if you can get out of the water by yourself.” Mischief started to swim around them, splashing water all over their heads. He was still holding his stick in his mouth and seeing that, Revan quickly grabbed it and pulled out of surprised dog’s mouth, throwing it somewhere behind.
“I know, but mind telling me why did we go so far in the first place?”
“Well, that’s how my dad taught me how to swim. I’m just repeating what he did.” He pointed at Mischief who was swimming back to him with a stick in his mouth. “See how he’s swimming?” She nodded. “You’ll be repeating those moves. I don’t know if there are other ways of swimming that you ponies use, but this seems like the most basic one.” Her panic started to kick in again when Revan lightly moved her away from him, even though he was still holding her up with both hands placed on her belly. “Ok, maybe I should have stayed closer to the shore…”
