The wedding had soon ended and the ponies stood outside as they watched Soarin' and Rainbow Dash walk down the red carpet to where there was a golden chariot to take them back home. Rainbow Dash and Soarin' stopped in front of the chariot and kissed once more before leaving. Right as they kissed, the Wonderbolts flew over the building and fireworks went off. The crowds cheered loudly once more for the couple. Rainbow Dash opened one eye when she heard the fireworks. She figured that Soarin' must have planned for this to happen since there were fireworks going off when she had first kissed him. Rainbow Dash and Soarin' broke free from their kiss and then entered the golden chariot.
"Where are they going?" Pinkie Pie asked. "I want to go with them too." Pinkie Pie bolted after the chariot, but Applejack had grabbed her tail.
"Um, Pinkie Pie," Fluttershy said. "I don't think you're going to want to go with them."
"Why? But where are they going?" Pinkie asked.
"They are going home now," Rarity said.
"Why can't I go with them?" Pinkie Pie asked.
Twilight Sparkle face hoofed. "Because they are going to do something that will end in a three letter word and I don't think that you would want to be a part of it."
"Holy horse apples!" Pinkie Pie said. "I knew it all along."
Twilight Sparkle nodded her head yes proudly with her eyes closed feeling satisfied that Pinkie Pie now understood.
"That three letter word is going to be fun and I'm missing out on it!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed.
Twilight Sparkle opened her eyes in shock. "Well, I do suppose that it could be considered fun, Pinkie Pie, but that wasn't exactly the three letter word that I was thinking of."
"What are you girls referring to? It's like you all know something that I don't know," Pinkie said.
Applejack was getting rather annoyed by now. "Here, I'll spell it out fer ya! It will end in S-E-X! Sex! Sex everywhere and probably all kinds of wild sex all over the place. Do ya understand now?"
Pinkie Pie gasped. "Wow! I never even considered that possibility. You girls are so smart and right on the ball, and Rainbow Dash will be on some balls tonight too I guess."
"Pinkie Pie," Twilight said as she closed her eyes shut tightly and shook her head quickly several times as if she were trying to shake the images out of her mind. "That was really......REALLY uncalled for."
Applejack put her hoof to her face. "Pinkie Pie can be MORE than a few apples short of a bushel sometimes."
"Sorry!" Pinkie Pie said. "Sometimes I just say things without even thinking! Especially when I feel so high and excited! My brain is going zip, zoom, ka-pow from all of that party we had!"
"I totally forgot that bright lights make her mania more wild," Twilight said. "Hopefully she'll calm down soon enough."
Everypony cheered loudly as the chariot took off and Soarin' and Rainbow Dash waved good bye to their family and friends.
Rainbow Dash leaned against her husband and enjoyed the fresh air that she inhaled through her nostrils. This was it. This was her stallion that she'd be spending the rest of her life with and she was so excited to start her life as a loyal wife to him. She knew that there would probably be arguments and bumps along the way, but this stallion meant so much to her and any problem that may come about, would be worked out with patience, love, and laughter. Right now, she had one thing on her mind for as soon as they got inside their home.
When the golden chariot landed, Soarin' scooped up his prize and flew her to the front door. He bucked the door open and carried his wife over the threshold. He gently placed her down and stared lovingly into her eyes.
Rainbow Dash closed the door and giggled. She took him by the hoof and led him through their home.
"Where are you taking me?" Soarin' asked.
"Isn't it obvious?" Rainbow asked.
She led him into the bedroom and began to undo her gown. "Take off your tuxedo, Soarin'," she instructed him.
Soarin' was hesitant, but he undressed himself.
Rainbow Dash put her gown to the side and then hopped on to the bed. She laid there on the her back and spread her hind legs out. "Come on! I have been waiting for this for the longest time! There's a condom on the table next to the bed. We have both waited so long for this. I'll help you put it on if you need help." Rainbow Dash waited for a moment.
Soarin' just stood there in shock.
"What are you doing? You have been so good and our bodies are one now. Come on over and break me in."
Soarin' felt guilty and a tear drop fell from his eye and he put his head down. "I can't, Dash."
Rainbow Dash got off of the bed and came over to him. She grabbed him by the hoof once more and led him to the bedside to sit down with him. "What are you talking about, Soarin'? We have endured the temptation for so long and now that we can finally enjoy each other's bodies, you don't want to do this? Tell me why."
"It's just that seeing you like that reminded me of my ex and she's really the last thing that I want to think about. I gave my innocence to her and seeing you pose like that reminded me of the countless pornographic materials that I have seen. It's like it's now etched into my mind forever and I can't escape it. I began to force myself to believe that sex was evil just to escape the temptation of going back to pornography and now everything feels wrong. I felt like I had to do this because of what Twilight Sparkle taught me."
"What did she teach you?"
"She said that pornography does more than just spike the level of dopamine in the brain for a pleasure sensation. It literally changes the physical matter within the brain so that new neurological pathways require pornographic material in order to trigger the desired reward sensation. It's literally like a drug and it is incredibly destructive to the mind. I now see how that is all true because I feel like I'm desensitized to all sexual imagery, and now I am suffering with the consequences. I guess that I eventually got so used to all of the pornographic images. There were times when I wasn't even looking at that stuff and I would just blink my eyes and I would see those images again. It's like my reactions are completely dulled down right now. I don't even think I'm capable of pleasing you sexually right now."
"Yes, I'm sorry, Soarin'. That's what pornography will do to you. But didn't Twilight Sparkle tell you that sex was a gift from God? Don't you remember me telling you that sex is wonderful and should be enjoyed in marriage between a husband and a wife only?" Rainbow asked.
"Yes, I do, but I still chose to believe that it was all bad somehow. Now I have this terribly awkward feeling that I can't shake from my mind."
"Hey, we're now united as a married couple, so we're going to share our deepest personal problems with each other and work together to overcome our struggles. I want you to remind yourself that sex is fine only with me now and that every part of my body is yours to enjoy now and every part of your body is for me to enjoy as well."
"That's really.....a bit uncomfortable to hear that," Soarin' said.
"But it shouldn't be. You're making it that way," Rainbow said. "It's something that God wants us to enjoy together. My job as a wife is to be submissive to you and your job as a husband is to love me unconditionally. We are now one in the flesh. Do you want to have God a part of everything in our lives or not?"
"I do," Soarin' said.
"Then you'll let him be a part of our sex life too." Rainbow Dash said. "Think of this as having apple pie. You love apple pie, but it's best to wait to have it for dessert so that you don't ruin your other meals. I know that's kind of a bad analogy, but we have both made it to the dessert part of our life and deserve to have some, and I plan on having lots of dessert with you. I'll tell you what. Even though I have been trying to help you cut back on your pie consumption, I'll let you have some apple pie after our special time. Does that sound ok?"
Soarin' sighed when he came to his senses. He reached over and grabbed the contraceptive on the table. "So how am I supposed to do this? Is this supposed to be done missionary style, or something?"
"We can do it anyway you want to. It doesn't matter. Even pony style is fine. As long as you let me take a few turns on top, and have a little rough foreplay once in a while, I won't mind." She then winked at him and continued, "I know that your job in life is to finish first place in everything that you do, but try to come in second place with what we're about to do. It's actually better. Let's try not to go by my motto of saying that we can do this in ten seconds flat."
Soarin's face was bright red. He wasn't expecting this kind of talk coming from Dash. "I can try, but I don't think that I can control that, Dash."
Rainbow giggled and said, "Oh, I know. I'm just teasing you! This is probably going to be incredibly awkward for the both of us, but it will become more natural as time goes on and we'll both get used to this soon enough."
Soarin' opened up the little package that the contraceptive was sealed in and took it out. He dropped it on the bed by accident because he was really uptight by all of this.
Rainbow Dash grabbed it and said, "Hey, let me help you out with that."
"Um, this is going to sound painfully awkward, but I'm not really aroused down there at the moment and I don't understand why that is now since just looking at you in the past was so very arousing to me when I couldn't have you like this, but now that I can, I'm not exactly ready."
Rainbow Dash got up and pushed him onto the bed. She put her front hoof down in-between his hind legs. "I can help you out with that. Just lay back and relax, and focus on me right now, not your guilt. Remember, you have been forgiven already."
Soarin' didn't realize how incredibly tense his body was, but he took a deep breath and tried to relax every single muscle in his body.
Rainbow Dash hopped back onto the bed and laid on her back right next to Soarin'. "You should be good to go now. You just needed a little preparation. Now come on, I have been waiting for this moment for a long time. You now have a sheath for your sword." Rainbow Dash giggled.
Soarin' slowly got up and looked down between his legs with the contraceptive on. He still wasn't really that aroused since his mind was still racing with fears and awkwardness, but he figured that he was good enough for the job right now. He put his two front hooves on her shoulders and watched as he carefully entered his wife for the first time. He did his best to clear his mind and focus on the present.
Rainbow Dash stared up lovingly into his bright green eyes and enjoyed the feeling of his warm breath on her body as he thrust himself into her.
Soarin' kept it up for as long as he could. His hind legs shook with pleasure and his wings flared out to the sides as he finished. He looked down in a guilty manner as he pulled himself out. "I'm sorry that it's over so soon."
"Hey, you did fine! Do you remember what I told you in the past? I could care less if you were not even capable of sexually performing at all. I am just happy to have you in my life and we just have to work on some of your issues together with the help of God."
"Soarin' sighed and said, "I feel like such a failure, but there's only one thing that will make me feel better."
"Go on," Rainbow Dash said as she slid her body up against a pillow that was leaning against the wall.
"Was I at least in the slightest bit satisfying?"
Rainbow Dash giggled and nodded her head yes. "Yeah, like I said, you did fine. Don't worry about satisfying me so much. I'm more concerned about making sure that you're satisfied."
"Wow, I couldn't ask for a better wife than you. I just...." Soarin's words trailed off.
"You just what?" Rainbow asked.
"No. I need to focus on you and forget it."
"Communication is one of the most important things in a relationship, Soarin'. Come here and sit down with me."
Soarin' sat down next to her. "I'm just so sorry that I did not save the most beautiful thing that a stallion and mare can share together for you. No matter how much I try to forget about it, I feel like it will always haunt me. I just wish I can go back in time and would have made the right decisions."
"I understand that what happened is incredibly painful for you. Many ponies out there go around having many sexual partners thinking that it's not a big deal and that there's nothing wrong with it. Then when they grow up and realize that they want to settle down with somepony special, they have deep regret and sorrow, even if they pretend to hide it, or they are just so very ignorant about the importance of saving your virginity for your spouse only. We'll get through this though. You have God as your counselor and He will guide you through all of this. You do still have your support groups too. I think I might be attending them with you from now on since we are united as a married couple."
"That's not going to be awkward for you to talk to Twilight with me? I mean, some of the things that I share with her are outside of the group because they are so personal. I also see your white unicorn friend, Rarity there in the groups.
"We don't have to tell her every single little detail about everything, but she's a pony who is very wise and is very good at explaining things. Twilight often explains things to me that are incredibly personal too," Rainbow said. "And yes, Rarity needs to go to those groups because she was raped in the past and had a traumatic experience as a prostitute."
"I'm so sorry to hear that," Soarin' said. "I don't even know what to say. I am so thankful and blessed to have you as my wife. You're kind of like Lazarus too. I still can't believe that you're here with me. I spoke to Twilight for many months about the idea of marrying you and she had given me one specific verse when it came to the desire of marrying you."
"Twilight kept her mouth shut about you wanting to marry me for months? Wow! I wouldn't have imagined that she would be able to hold her tongue for that long!"
"She did a really silly thing that she said she had learned from Pinkie Pie when I asked her to promise not to tell you," Soarin' said. Soarin' sat up and did the motions as he spoke. "Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye." Soarin' then stuck his front hoof in his eye. "Ouch." He pulled his hoof back and said, "That can hurt sometimes."
Rainbow giggled and said. "That's exactly what Pinkie Pie does! It's called a Pinkie swear. It's not meant to be taken seriously as you already had said that it was silly. What was that verse that Twilight Sparkle said to you that made you think of me?"
"Oh, I said it over and over in my mind because it was so true. An excellent wife who can find? She is far more precious than jewels. You are more precious than jewels, Dash."
Rainbow Dash looked away, her cheeks were bright red. "Awwww, that's really sweet, Soarin'. She perked up and said, "Hey! I'll be right back. You just wait right here." Rainbow Dash got up and left him.
Soarin' almost forgot about the contraceptive that he was wearing and took it off. He tossed it into the garbage pail near her bed and wondered what Rainbow Dash was doing. He began to reflect on how they met and how far they have grown so close together.
Rainbow Dash came back in with two plates of dessert and two glasses of milk. She gave one to Soarin'.
"Apple pie?" Soarin' asked. "I thought that I was supposed to be cutting back. Is it really ok that we eat in your bed.....er, I mean our bed? What if we get crumbs in the bed?"
"Hey, I said that it would be ok to have some. I got some pie for myself too, and of course we can eat in bed together, silly! I eat in my bed all of the time. Just be careful that you don't spill any crumbs into our bed," Rainbow said. She then took a few bites of her treat.
"Wow, I don't think I have seen you eat pie before. Is that apple pie too?" Soarin' asked and then took a bite out of his pie and then followed it down with some cold milk.
"Nope. I have two different slices of pie on my plate that are my favorites. Pecan pie and pumpkin pie."
"Wow, apple pie isn't your favorite? Thou art treading on thin ice my fair lady," he teasingly said. "What about Pinkie Pie? Is she another one of your favorite pies?"
Rainbow Dash laughed. "Pinkie Pie sure is! I wonder if she'll ever make a pie named after herself. I bet it would be the craziest tasting pie on the planet. Pinkie Pie is just so random! I can't imagine the crazy and random things that her husband will have to put up with and try to understand if she ever gets married."
Soarin' changed the topic to a more serious one. "Dash, do you ever want to come back to the Wonderbolt's team? I really think you still have it in you, even if you may have some permanent pain and damage in your wings."
Rainbow Dash took a chug of her milk and put the glass aside. "I don't feel like that's what God is calling me to do in my life. At least not right now. I think God has greater plans for you and I, and it might involve bringing new life into this world. My pain can flare up sometimes, but Fluttershy gives me plenty of herbs like turmeric mixed with black pepper to help fight the pain. She also tells me to eat a bowl full of tart cherries everyday. These foods work incredibly well for me. I sometimes have extra pain when stormy weather comes in. I guess that it has to do with the humidity or something, but I do always have you for those massages when it comes to relieving my pain and that can make for some more romantic situations between you and I. Taking a warm bath also helps and I would enjoy my special companion to hop into the tub with me."
"You want us to become parents? Wow, I didn't expect to hear that from you so soon, but I'll try to give you anything that your heart desires. I can already tell that you'll be wearing the pants in this family!"
"Not at this very moment," Rainbow said. "I mean like way in the future. We just got married and I'd like to relax and have fun with you before you go planting any seeds inside of me. I'm sure that we'll both know when we'll be ready for that moment. I am kind of hoping to have at least two foals in the future, and that expression is quite funny since we normally don't wear clothing. The pants are for you to wear, Mister, and I'll help you put the pants on and make sure that they stay on if you need me to. I can be like the belt to hold the pants up." Rainbow Dash took out her Bible and flipped through some pages.
"What are you doing, Dash?" Soarin' asked.
"I think I know the perfect thing to read for the both of us right now," she replied. Rainbow Dash found what she was looking for and began to read to Soarin'."
"She
Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth—
for your love is more delightful than wine.
Pleasing is the fragrance of your perfumes;
your name is like perfume poured out.
No wonder the young women love you!
Take me away with you—let us hurry!
Let the king bring me into his chambers.
Friends
We rejoice and delight in you.
we will praise your love more than wine.
She
How right they are to adore you!
Dark am I, yet lovely,
daughters of Jerusalem,
dark like the tents of Kedar,
like the tent curtains of Solomon.
Do not stare at me because I am dark,
because I am darkened by the sun.
My mother’s sons were angry with me
and made me take care of the vineyards;
my own vineyard I had to neglect.
Tell me, you whom I love,
where you graze your flock
and where you rest your sheep at midday.
Why should I be like a veiled woman
beside the flocks of your friends?
Friends
If you do not know, most beautiful of mares,
follow the tracks of the sheep
and graze your young goats
by the tents of the shepherds.
He
I liken you, my darling, to a mare
among Pharaoh’s chariot horses.
Your cheeks are beautiful with earrings,
your neck with strings of jewels.
We will make you earrings of gold,
studded with silver.
She
While the king was at his table,
my perfume spread its fragrance.
My beloved is to me a sachet of myrrh
resting between my breasts.
My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms
from the vineyards of En Gedi.
He
How beautiful you are, my darling!
Oh, how beautiful!
Your eyes are doves.
She
How handsome you are, my beloved!
Oh, how charming!
And our bed is verdant.
He
The beams of our house are cedars;
our rafters are firs."
Soarin' slowly finished his apple pie and then chugged the rest of his milk down and placed the glass and plate on the table next to the bed. This was the first time that he ate it slowly and savored every bit of flavor from it. "That was beautiful, Rainbow." He paused for a moment in thought. "Was that.....from the Bible?"
"It sure was! What I read is called the Song of Solomon. It's pretty romantic, isn't it?" Rainbow asked. "It's about celebrating sexual love."
"I wouldn't expect to hear anything like that from the Bible," he said with blush on his cheeks.
Rainbow Dash giggled. "My friend Rarity practically has that entire passage memorized! It's one of her most favorite things to read from the Bible." Rainbow Dash finished her dessert and put her glass and plate to the side. She pulled out another contraceptive and placed it on Soarin's belly. "So, you won the first round. Are you ready for round two?"
Soarin' sat there shocked for a moment. "I uh, Dash. I don't think I'll be as strong a second time so soon." Soarin' paused and thought of a good comparison. "I think my abilities might still be on cool down."
Rainbow Dash started cracking up. "That's a great video game comparison! How about we try to go for a best of three and then it's game over?"
"Wow, Dash. You're really into sex. I'll tell you what. We can go for a best of three, but then I might need a nap after that. I think that we should keep this as a night time thing only. The last thing I want is for me to fall asleep while I'm performing with the Wonderbolts."
"Ok, deal!" she said. "But it's my turn to take control on top. If I win this one, then it goes into a tie breaker."
"You're on!" Soarin' said with a smile and then placed the contraceptive on himself.
Rainbow smiled and climbed up on top of him and said, "See! It's good that you're laughing and having a good time! No guilt and no shame. As long as I can keep you happy and into me in more than one way, then I think that we'll have a healthy sex life."
About forty minutes later, both ponies laid together in the bed.
Soarin' had his front leg wrapped around Rainbow Dash and Rainbow Dash had her head leaning against his chest.
"So, was that fun?" Rainbow asked. "I'll try not to go overboard with you. Fluttershy told me a story about a certain kind of rat species that has so much sex that he can actually die from it."
"That doesn't sound like such a bad death to me," Soarin' said. "That's like a happy and sad ending at the same time. Can you imagine if being reincarnated as animals were true? I think I know many ponies who would want to come back as that certain animal, and I think I know one pony in particular who reminds me of that critter." Soarin' ran his hoof through her mane and said, "I can't believe that I found my rainbow at the end of this storm in life. I can't go wrong with marrying the pony who represents loyalty."
Rainbow Dash squeezed her mate tighter and burrowed her head deep within his chest. "We'll still have storms to go through together in life, Soarin', but I'll always try to be that colorful rainbow every time that you have to go through the storms in life. Would you like to write a letter to the Princess with me?"
"What!? You're not going to write about our sex life, are you?" Soarin' asked.
"No! Of course I wouldn't do that! I want to write about the things we have learned and overcome together. I wouldn't do something like that." Rainbow Dash sighed and said, "Although I can imagine Pinkie Pie getting really curious and asking me personal questions about why is it that I go to bed so early in the day. I don't know how I'll respond to her when it comes to questions like that. Anyway, would you like to write a letter?"
Sure, but how about after our nap together," Soarin' suggested. "I kind of have to recuperate. You're like a sex machine. I just want to cuddle up and take a nap with my Rainbow first."
"That's fine with me, Soarin'. That's fine with me," Rainbow Dash said as she closed her eyes and then drifted off to sleep with her husband.
The End.
