The sun hit the eyelids of Carrot Cake through the window and he brought his hoof up to try to block it and open his eyes. He looked beside himself and saw Pinkie cuddled next to him and he smiled remembering the night. Both of their manes were messed up and still sweaty from the long glorious night. He couldn't remember a night where he stayed up so late, he usually enjoyed his sleep it was one of the few escapes from that thing he called a wife. He slithered his hooves from under Pinkie and slowly got out of the bed, careful not to wake her up. He trotted down the stairs to get to his room and he was relived to not see, or any sign, of his wife being home at all and jumped into his shower to clean himself up.
He quickly showered and dried himself off and hurried to open the bakery for today. He rushed to get everything set up and even did Pinkies normal opening routine. Once everything was set he unlocked the door, opened the curtains and nonchalantly went behind the counter to wait for any potential customers.
Carrot Cake was tired from the lack of sleep and propped his head up on the counter with his hoof. Instead of dozing off he began to day dream about his night with his pink goddess. He was spaced out but then the front door slammed open and Cup Cake stumbled into the bakery, her appearance was peculiarly pecuntuous.
Pinkie hopped down the stairs and she had cleaned herself up and brushed her coat to improve her appearance.
Carrot Cake was practically in between them and he saw Pinkie and he had to force his jaw from being dropped. He looked at his wife and felt a deep disgust for her.
Cup Cake groggily walked up to the counter and slammed a hoof in front of him. "I'll be asleep, don't wake me up." She had a heavy aura of whiskey around her and she couldn't stand up correctly and constantly swayed to the side.
He never liked the smell nor taste of alcohol. "Ugh.. Have you been drinking?!" He said as he put a hoof over his muzzle.
"Thas nun of yer dam business!" She said as she banged a hoof on the table again. She looked across the room and saw Pinkie staring at her and gave her a drunken smile. "Oh, goosh morning Pinkie."
Pinkie wanting nothing more than to buck her in the face but she put on a cheerful smile. "Hello, Cup Cake." There was no way Pinkie was ever wanting to call her Mrs. Cake ever again. In her eyes, Carrot Cake was secretly hers now. "Need me to help you to your room?"
"Iem fine pankie..." She slowly exited the front of the bakery and disappeared behind a corner to head to her room.
Pinkie quickly went to Carrot's side and they shared a quick kiss as the drunken mare had left. Pinkie then quickly went into the kitchen to get ready for business.
The two worked in perfect harmony and their work quality increased regardless of their lack of sleep. Customers noticed the quality of the baked goods and service and left happy and most left tips which were scarce to any bakery. The two resonated from the front counter to the kitchen and each time they passed each other they shared a quick but passionate kiss when nopony was around and sent warm smiles to each other from a distance.
The day had gone smoothly and it was time to close the bakery. The two worked in perfect unison to clean up everything and Pinkie hung the sign over the door and Carrot locked the door at the same time.
The week was the same, Cup Cake had become lazy and saw that the two could handle the bakery themselves so she thought it was only fit that she would allow them to continue their productive work while she lazed around all day and left the bakery frequently. The two had never been happier as they worked together and treated it as if it was both of their bakery without Cup Cake around and more customers have even came in more frequently because of the quality service.
They both had alot of time to secretly be together, but these short bursts of romance were also a time for sorrow as they both knew that this could only be a secret.
Carrot wanted to climb to the highest mountains and scream his love for Pinkie all over Equestria and also yelling how much he hated his wife.
Pinkie had never been happier in all of her life being with Carrot Cake, but it burned her inside and made her smiles weaker to the fact that they could only be together in secret.
It was at the end of the week for the bakery and they were closed tomorrow and it was closing time.
Cup Cake had left earlier saying that she was going to visit her parents.
Carrot knew that was her normal excuse to go out drinking, but didn't ever say so because Pinkie was always near and didn't want her to know that she was an alcoholic.
Carrot and Pinkie Pie were upstairs lying in bed breathing heavily, both sticky with sweat and various other fluids. They held each other in their hooves with smiles on their faces but frowns in their hearts.
"Pinkie..." He said with his expression indifferent.
"yes?" Her eyes were shining with happiness.
"I don't want this to be a secret.. i want us to truly be together." He gentle stroked her mane.
Pinkie nuzzled his chest. "It's okay, like I said we will do everything we need to be together."
He thought for a moment and quietly said. "..Like get rid of Cup Cake..?"
She looked up to him in surprise. "What? how?"
He cleared his throat. "Well, I kind of have an idea..."
