Fluttershy’s face was just about as red but neither of them said much. For a moment Twilight watched in silence as Fluttershy played the trick picking a card to which Trixie shuffled her deck and easily found it. It was a simple trick but one that made the two of them giggle. It was a little strange the way they looked at each other and what Trixie said afterwards only made it more awkward. . “Trixie is great at all sorts of tricks, is there any in particular that you might want to see?” Fluttershy swallowed and moved an inch closer. “Um, w-w-well, I um, c-c-can think of um,” her eyes drifted to Twilight and she slid herself away from Trixie. “Oh, T-Twilight!” Trixie groaned and glanced back at Twilight. “Hello, oh great disruptive one.” Twilight rolled her eyes. “Hello to you too. It seems like you two are having fun at least.” Trixie let out a low growl. “Trixie was about to have more fun, she is sure.” Twilight walked over, plopped herself down near them and smiled. “You know you can have fun with more than one friend at a time.” Trixie’s eyes bulged out of her skull, same with Fluttershy. This time it was Trixie who was stuttering. “T-T-Twilight, you c-cannot mean what T-Trixie thinks you do.” Twilight raised an eyebrow. “That you perform tricks for both of us. Sure why not?” Trixie swallowed. “T-Twilight, you said you were not interested in that.” Had Twilight really said she didn’t like magic tricks? Twilight wasn’t positive, though she might have said it once or twice. It wasn’t exactly a true statement she just preferred real magic but these little tricks were a nice distraction sometimes. “I haven’t experienced any in awhile, not since Spike tried.” Trixie stood up. “The little dragon boy! Twilight Sparkle, he is a child!” Fluttershy closed her eyes. “O-oh… you m-mean magic tricks, d-don’t you?” Twilight looked from Fluttershy to Trixie back to Fluttershy. “Well… yeah, isn’t that exactly what you two were doing up here?” Trixie stammered for a half second before finally saying, “Of course it was, but Trixie wasn’t sure if the dragon boy was ready to perform in front of crowds his skills are not as great nor powerful as Trixie’s were.” Twilight smiled. “Isn’t that why you’re helping him learn magic tricks?” Trixie jerked a nod. “Of course… um, Trixie feels a little fatigued though so maybe magic will have to wait. Just this once.” Twilight hadn’t even heard the hoofsteps up the stairs but she did hear it when Rarity spoke with a tone that was on the edge of caution. “Oh, really now, a few card tricks and Trixie is already tired? Darling, are you feeling well?” Trixie offered a first class grin. “Of course she is well, there are no changes to Trixie’s medical condition. Why would you suggest such a thing?” Rarity seemed quiet for a moment and then added. “If there was, would that help explain why you’re here at Twilight’s?” Trixie narrowed her eyes. “Of course not, Trixie is here for friendship, not because of any more pressing or stressful concerns. Especially not if Twilight is the only pony that could help Trixie with such things. You are asking strange questions, Rarity.” Rarity nodded. “And what kind of medical conditions would you happen to not have?” It was at that moment that Twilight picked up on what Rarity was doing. Trixie began to reply, “Trixie would certainly not be p-“ Twilight interrupted her. “Patient, Trixie is certainly not very patient sometimes. But we still like our friends even when they’re impatient.” Twilight tried to make as friendly a face as she could to prove to Rarity that she was being earnest. It wasn’t a lie but it stopped the truth from being dragged out by accident. Rarity stared at her. “Uh-huh… I suppose that is true but Trixie was saying something about what she wasn’t-“ Twilight cut in again. “I think Trixie has had enough excitement for one day, she’s really tired after all the fun she had with Fluttershy. I think it’s time you two left.” Rarity stared at Twilight. “Really now, darling, Trixie seems just fine. A little warm in the face but just fine.” Twilight couldn’t help but notice that Trixie was still casting nervous glances at Fluttershy with those red cheeks of hers. Fluttershy had stood up now but didn’t look much better. Hopefully they weren’t really sick and just having too much fun. Twilight still couldn’t risk Rarity manipulating the answer out of Trixie like that. “Rarity, I think we need to talk downstairs.” Rarity met her eyes. “Oh?” “Yep,” Twilight walked ahead and mostly gently pulled Rarity along with her using a bit of magic. Rarity followed not that she had much of a choice. Twilight left those two upstairs to do whatever it was they were doing. Once all the way downstairs and hopefully out of the earshot of Trixie and Fluttershy Twilight spun around to face Rairty. “Rarity… please don’t.” Rarity offered a confused look. “Whatever do you mean?” “I know what you are doing, and it’s not what friends do. Exploiting a weakness in Trixie like that, it’s not appropriate.” Rarity gasped and put a hoof to her mouth as if she had no idea what she was doing. “Oh my, Twilight, how could you think I would exploit one of our new friends?” Twilight met her eyes. “Rarity, I don’t know how you figured out how to trick Trixie into saying the things she doesn’t want too but I beg of you, don’t force her to say anything. I promise you, if there is anything else going on here, I know about it and I have made the decision to not share it with you girls yet so that Trixie can have the chance to learn to trust you all enough to do so herself.” Rarity stared at her in silence for a long moment. Seconds crawled by until Twilight was sure actual minutes had passed. Rarity did finally speak and her tone was gentle. “Are you sure she will trust us?” “No, but I think that it’s important to try. I need you to give me a chance, to give her a chance. I’m begging you, Rarity.” Rarity shook her head. “You shouldn’t have to beg me to give you a chance. If you trust Trixie that much than I will… I will try. I know there is something more going on, I think we all do, but we will wait until either things blow up in our faces or Trixie tells us herself. Should they blow up though, we will take whatever means necessary to keep you safe.” Twilight nodded. “I understand. This time though, I really believe Trixie is here for good reasons and that there is something amazing on the horizon for her. Hopefully for all of us.” *** Trixie had watched as Twilight pretty much forcefully dragged the nosey Rarity back down the stairs by her tail. It was a pretty funny site as Rarity tried to dig her hooves into the floor boards and even gave a few useless bucks to meet only thin air. It was good too because until Twilight interrupted her she had no idea what Rarity was doing but it dawned on her that she was about to reveal a powerful secret with a idiotic lie. Twilight might be trustworthy after all… a strange thing to say considering her history with trusting others. Trixie attempted to walk forward to go down the steps but she felt a wave of exhaustion and dizziness hit her. She wobbled in place a little. Was she really this tired from just standing up too long? A soft and warm feathery blanket wrapped around her back pulling her close to Fluttershy’s side. This not only helped stabilize Trixie but was warm as could be. The wing over her back had almost enveloped her entire body. “Thank you, Trixie is tired.” Fluttershy shook her head. “You’ve had an exciting couple of days. Let’s get you somewhere comfortable.” With Fluttershy’s help Trixie was brought up the stairs and aided into bed where Trixie was then covered up by a blanket. She was surprisingly much more tired than she thought she could be. Maybe she did need some extra rest now. Fluttershy laid her head down on the bed facing Trixie’s. “I um… I think I know what you were going to say to Rarity…” Trixie swallowed. “W-what was it?” Fluttershy offered a gentle smile. “I want you to be the one to say it… but um… I don’t mind.” “You don’t mind?” Fluttershy’s wing drew small circles into the bed sheet. “Um, m-maybe I kinda um… like it?” Trixie blinked a few times. So now she was being open with her. Only after her secret was almost spilled to rarity. What was wrong with this mare? “Why would you like it? Trixie is the one who should like it.” Fluttershy smiled. “I’m glad you do, not every mare likes it when that happens… um… d-d-do you mind if I ask you a q-question?” Trixie shrugged. “Sure?” “Is it a colt or a filly?” Trixie closed her eyes tightly. Yep, she figured it out. At least she liked it, for whatever that was worth or even meant in this context. Trixie felt something soft and warm stroke her cheek prompting her to open an eye. Fluttershy’s head was closer to her face now, much closer, those wide blue eyes were staring right into hers. The feathery tip of her wing was stroking her cheek. Trixie felt her breathing growing shallow. “If Trixie tells you, will you keep it a secret?” “Fluttershy grinned. “Of course.” “Trixie is having a filly.” Fluttershy’s grin widened but those eyes were half closed giving Trixie a look that she’d only seen from mares right before the kind of events that usually led to Trixie’s circumstance. Why was this mare suddenly so interested in her now that she knew Trixie was pregnant? Or was she always interested and just uncomfortable to let her know until now. She did mention liking Trixie’s colors… Fluttershy inched her face ever closer. Hot breath could be felt over Trixie’s muzzle. “I um… I like pregnant mares… like… m-more than normal ponies do. I think my f-friends think I want to have a b-baby myself? M-maybe I do?” Trixie smiled trying to ignore that honey scented breath. “That’s okay, Trixie is fine with all sorts of kinks. You may even say Trixie has some herself.” “L-like?” “Trixie might tell you later.” In a near whisper Fluttershy asked, “C-could I still ask you f-for a certain magic t-trick?” Trixie swallowed. She wasn’t sure how long Twilight was going to be busy downstairs this time. Chances were she’d be right back up in no time but what would she do if she was caught in the middle of performing some kind of private magical act. She had no idea but her mind and body were being numbed by that look in Fluttershy’s eyes. The kind of look that promised Trixie could do anything she wanted and the mare would only love her for it more. “T-Trixie thinks… yes.” Fluttershy closed her eyes. “C-can you make um… my lips… warm?” Trixie’s lips were only an inch away. Instinct seemed to kick in and her head moved forward of its own accord. Their lips met. Warm, soft, and the taste of honey on Fluttershy’s lips were amazing. Fluttershy was very responsive and pressed the kiss back. Her lips parting just enough for Trixie to feel a tongue brush against her own. Heat flashed across Trixie’s body making her body squirm with need. Screw it, Twilight could come up right now for all she cared, but she needed more of this. Trixie needed all of Fluttershy. Trixie pressed forward but only found Fluttershy pulled away just as the sound of hoofsteps appeared on the edge of the staircase far below them. Fluttershy smiled warmly at Trixie and Trixie felt herself smiling back. A warm wing wiped any excess fluids from Trixie’s lips and Fluttershy used a hoof to clean her own. Fluttershy whispered. “I’ll come back for more m-magic tricks later.” Trixie looked up at her. “This show was too short, she would love for you to experience an encore later.” Fluttershy took a few steps back before flapping her wings and going downstairs just in time to meet Twilight. She flew past Twilight while saying, “I have to go, but Trixie is in bed. She looked really tired after such a big day.” Twilight replied. “Thank you, Fluttershy. I knew you were the right pony to help her out. If I can trust anypony to help teach Trixie about friendship, it’s you.” Well Fluttershy certainly knew how to teach Trixie something, but she wasn’t sure it was friendship.
