//------------------------------// // That Night // Story: The Formative Years // by Lonepone //------------------------------// “So, Sky, where do you live?” I ask as I try and scope an enemy player. “Canterlot. You?” She replies as she tomahawks somepony. She’s rewarded with angry shouting from the enemy team. “I live with my dad on the other side of town” I pick up the enemy flag. “Cool, what’s he like?” She assassinates an enemy player. “Really laid back. He’s cool. Your family?” I release a MOAB. “Eh, I live with myself” She takes a swig from the bottle of cider. “I moved out first chance I got, hated my family” I take a drink from my bottle. “Aren’t you lonely all by yourself?” “Obviously. One of the reasons why I was so excited to get accepted to this college. Meet somepony, you know?” “Yeah, one of the reasons I was lookin’ forward to comin’ here. You got a special somepony at home?” She laughs. “I hardly ever left the house. Only reason I ever went out what to get a weeks worth of frozen meals and pop” “What about a job?” She laughs again, but this time a little more evilly. “My parents ‘lost’ there bits. And one day i ‘found’ a handsomely large bag of bits sitting on my front door. My parents are rich, it’s not like they’d miss it” “Nice” I take a breath, steeling myself. “So, mares or colts?” “What?” ‘It’s not too late to back down’ The voice whispers to me. ‘No need to back down. I got guts” “Which do you prefer, mares or colts?” I ask. My mouth all of a sudden feels dry, so i take a long drink from my cider. “Well, I mostly stick to colts, but if certain mare is extraordinary, I might swing the other way. I’m just surprised by your lack of foreplay, Vinyl” “Well, I thought I’d just cut to the chase” I say smoothly. “Do you consider me ‘extraordinary’?” I already know she does, but I just gotta hear her say it. “Possibly. Depends though, on how good are you” Damn. Not what I was expecting. “So who’s lacking in foreplay now, Ms. Sky?” “Mm. I like how that sounds. You’re definitely good at talking” Time to go in for the kill. “Of course I am. Why don’t we turn the game off, and I’ll show you what else my mouth is good for” I say seductively. “I think I’ll take you up on that offer” She clicks off the console. “So, are you all just talk?” She looks at me. “Well, get over here then if you want some action” She scoots over towards me on the couch, and leans heavily on me. I look into her eyes for a brief moment, and then lean in for a kiss. The cider leaves a nice taste on her lips. We break apart. “You taste good” She says. “You too. I want a longer taste though” I say coyly. “Mm, me too” She puts an arm around my neck, and pulls herself up too me. This time, we don’t separate until we need to come up for breath. And then we dive back down again. “Think we should turn some music on so we don’t wake anyone up?” She asks quietly. “Mhm” I hit play on my Ipod, not caring which song it is, and plug it into the stereo system. We kiss again, but this time more aggressively, I can feel her lean body pressing into mine hungrily. I run a hoof through her hair, savoring the feel. One of her hooves starts wandering downwards. “Moving a little fast?” I say. I fall back on the couch, Sky on top of me.
