Daisy was stirring in her sleep, something was wrong. She woke up, sitting up to see that not only Joel wasn't around, but she was in her room too. She climbed out of bed yawning, walking out of her room and crossing the hallway into Joel's room. As she slowly opened the door she peeked inside to check on her friend, whispering "Joel? Joel are you awake?"
Joel stirred a bit in his sleep but he did not wake up. Daisy walked over to him and sat down next to his bed just as he turned to face her, seeing the sad look on Joel's face. She climbed into bed, wrapping her forelegs around the back of his neck and holding him close. He returned the hug and smiled.
Daisy can't seem to help herself when Joel is around her, why did she come into his room in the first place? Why was she doing this for somepony that she barely knows? She was too tired to think of the answer right now. Instead she lied there with Joel, embracing him, falling back into a peaceful dreaming state.
[/hr]
Why do I feel warmer? I rubbed my hands on the soft, fuzzy object I was now holding onto. I opened my eyes to see Daisy snuggling into me, like I was some sort of giant teddy bear. She must have snuck into my room last night. I needed to get up and prepare to go to school, but at the same time I didn't want to hurt Daisy's feelings by waking her up when she seems so comfortable.
I sighed silently and tried prying myself out of her grip. She didn't wake up but the look on her face clearly shows that she doesn't enjoy me breaking that hug. I got out of bed and went to the bathroom after taking off my glasses and setting them on the nightstand. Once I was in the bathroom, I took my clothes off and turned the shower on. Stepping into the tub and closing the curtains around me.
Oh man the water felt good. I know I said I hated water before but not when it's at this perfect temperature. At least until someone flushed the toilet on me, making the water scalding hot. "O-ow!! Son of a bitch! Too hot, too hot!!" I yelled in pain, while hearing Daisy laughing at me.
"Sunny's waiting outside for you. I'll give you a little tip on how to get on her good side, don't swear." Daisy said while she was walking back out of the bathroom. Didn't know she enjoys pulling pranks. Well... More like the worst thing you can do to a person while they take a shower. Seriously, who the hell does that?
[/hr]
Sunny was tapping her hoof, getting more impatient with every second Joel spends inside the house. Just as the door opened up, Sunny turned towards it to see a slightly more red Joel. "What happened to you?" She said. Joel leaned against the door after closing it.
"Where to start... Oh I know, I've been transported to an alien world, I had a traumatizing experience just a few days ago, oh yeah and not to mention the part that my reward for helping a little girl get her doll back, was getting stoned by a bunch of brats. Oh! And my glasses are broken too so there's that." Joel said, giving Sunny an annoyed look the whole time.
Sunny deadpanned. "No, I meant why are you suddenly a lighter shade of red."
Joel waved his hand dismissively. "It's nothing really important, I just had a hot shower is all." Joel answered.
Sunny turned to walk towards the school, as Joel caught up to walk next to her. "And why would a hot shower change your color?" Sunny said, with actual intrigue in her voice.
Joel decided to enlighten her with a bit of intellectual talk. "Well, I'm sure your coat would lose it's luster if you were to become very ill, correct?" He said, pausing for a moment while Sunny nodded. "Well human skin has this thing called pigmentation. It only reaches up to the upper thin layers of our skin." Joel continued, giving Sunny a slightly intrigued look.
During the walk to the school Joel decided to share what he knew with Sunny. Ranging from a discussion of skin pigmentation, to a discussion about the geography of earth. At this point Sunny was surprised at the human. She didn't know he actually had some intelligence in that big stupid monkey head of his.
Both Joel and Sunny reached the school half an hour before class starts. Giving Joel some time to make a crude drawing of earth on the chalkboard, while Sunny prepared herself by making some coffee in the break room of the school. "I just hope that Joel won't make a mess of things." Sunny thought to herself while she poured coffee into her cup.
[/hr]
I was pumped, thoughts racing through my mind on what to tell these kids. Earth was so awesome, seriously! Why do you think I want to wake up? I spent most of the half hour making crude drawings of earth, cars, space ships, the moon, and even a T-Rex. Okay so I got bored and drew a T-Rex, sue me.
When the kids walked in I could see that they were either freaked out, excited, or downright scared of me. Only two were scared of me. I also noticed that some of them didn't have their butt marks. I know it's called cutie marks, but it doesn't sound right to me. After the children took their seats, Sunny started with the usual role call.
Every single name I heard sounded the same to me. I mentally cringed and groan at each one I heard, like listening to a little girl talking about the names of her dolls. After role check, Sunny looked over at me and gave me a nod. Alright Joel, it's your time to shine.
I introduced myself to the class by telling them my name and even saying that I'll be their teacher in "Earthanomics." Okay yeah I know it was a stupid name for a class but I had to say something. I told them a few things that were common on earth, at least for me. I told them about cars, weapons, a little bit on how not every country is ruled under a monarchy, how humans reached space travel, how we got to the moon, and finally I told them about the magical little thing we call "internet."
One student raised his hoof up to ask me a question. "Yes, you in the back. What's your question?"
"Could you tell us about the music in your world?" The little pegasus filly asked. Good question too. I remember listening to a lot of music when I was playing video games, or doing homework when I was still in high school. I proceeded to answer her question by telling him the different kinds of music. I knew this world still had guitars, pianos, flutes, such like that. I decided to tell them more about modern music, but shared in some of my favorites that were still from the 50's to the 80's, not to mention the songs of today.
These kids were eating up everything I was telling them. They seemed to be loving earth as much as I was. One of the other children raised their hoof up to ask me another question. What the hell, I have enough time for one last question. "Alright last question." I said as I pointed at the unicorn filly.
"How do humans dance on earth?" She asked. Now I had two thoughts when she asked that. The first thought I had was "I'm not dancing for you". The second thought was "Maybe I can embarrass Sunny with this." I decided to go with thought number two.
A smile formed on my face as I spoke "Actually that's a very good question, I wish I could help you but I would need a dancing partner." I turned my head towards Sunny. "Sunny, could you help me with this presentation?" This got a look from Sunny, all signs point to no is what it said.
The children spoke up before she could, all of them asking Sunny to dance with me so they could see. She sighed as she got up from her desk to walk over to me. You're about to get the dance lesson of a lifetime Sunny.
[/hr]
Joel reached down to grab Sunny's hooves, lifting them up and placing her left hoof on his right shoulder while holding her right hoof with his left hand. He moved his right hand down to touch her flank, making Sunny blush. He started to move his feet slowly while telling Sunny "Just follow along with my steps, slowly." She nodded, looking down towards his feet to watch where he was going, stumbling only a few times. After she got the rhythm down, Joel picked up the pace.
Sunny was able to keep up with him this time as they entered into a waltz. "This is what we call a waltz, not really my style but it is a formal dance where I'm from." This is the closest that Sunny has ever been with Joel. She was able to stare into his eyes to get a closer view of their color.
He had a green and blue mixture to his eyes, with a hint of yellow surrounding his pupil, like an eclipsed sun trying to shine light past the darkness. Her breathing becoming shaky, showing how nervous she's starting to feel. Her heart pounded in her chest as she lost focus to her surroundings, focusing on those eyes of his. Joel finished up the dance by twirling her once in place and stopping at her desk. She snapped out of it once she heard all of the students applauding by stomping their hooves on the floor and cheering.
She cleared her throat as she stood on all fours once more. "J-Joel, thank you for coming to class today, I think its best if you leave now." She sat back down, starting to calm down after that little heart attack of hers. Joel walked over next to the door, leaning on the wall.
"You sure I cant stick around? I might learn a bit more about pony culture from your lessons." Joel asked. Sunny let this idea run through her head, it wouldn't harm anypony if she were to let Joel stick around. He might learn a thing or two more by being here, after all she's paying for a whole days visit anyways.
During recess when the kids were playing, Joel and Sunny were relaxing by sitting at Sunny's desk. Joel used a student's desk as a seat, tired of not being able to use a chair at all. Sunny took a sip of her coffee while Joel got up to grab himself a cup of water, gulping down his glass refilling it every time he finished. "Do humans really need that much water?" Sunny asked.
Joel let out a relieved sigh as he set down his last cup "No not really, I've just been a bit scornful about water the past two days. But I forgot that I need it to survive, and to bathe." Joel said, bringing over his 4th refilled glass of water over to the desk. Sunny thought maybe this was an appropriate time to figure out who Joel really is.
"Joel, I was wondering if you could answer some questions. You don't have to answer them if they're too personal." Sunny said.
Joel waved his hand dismissively. "Oh don't worry about personal questions, ask away."
Sunny had prepared a list while Joel was teaching the class earlier. The questions she wrote down were as followed: What kind of work did he do? Did he have family back on earth? If yes, ask about them. What was his special talent? What were his hobbies before Equestria? Does he have a special somepony?
She sighed. There was one question that was bugging her, more than the questions she wrote down. Sunny looked up from her list, setting it face down. "Joel, when you were still bathing in Daisy's tub, the day you came to Equestria, I looked through that strange card holder of yours." Joel nodded. He could understand, seeing as how at the time she still thought he might be a danger to both her and Daisy.
"I saw a card in particular that I've been meaning to ask you. How did you become an "Honored Citizen" in your home town?" Sunny asked. He must be a good person to have received such an honorable sounding title. The question is, how did he earn it?
[/hr]
Ow, ow that really hurt. That question stung me real bad. I know I don't show it, a lot of people don't see it until I've pointed it out. I sighed, I knew she had to figure this out one way or another so might as well get it out of the way. "You remember how I told you and the children about the vehicles from my world?" I asked, getting a nod from Sunny. "Well, where I'm from an "Honored Citizen" is actually someone who's over 60 years old... Or disabled. It allows us to get cheaper prices on bus tickets and monthly passes."
"Disabled? You don't seem disabled to me." Sunny asked, hearing the confusion in her tone.
"I have a disability called "autism." To be more specific it's called Asperger syndrome." Sunny could already tell this was bothering Joel quite a bit. Before she could speak up, Joel interupted her by continuing. "It mean's something in my brain is fucked up, Sunny. I can't handle specific situations without having a mental breakdown, or socialize with others as well as others could. I couldn't hang around normal kids without being escorted by an aide or go into normal classes without being sat away in a corner where I wouldn't bother anyone." While Joel was speaking, he got up from his seat and walked over to the window to watch the children play outside.
"That card, at least to me, meant I was branded as a disabled-" I continued, before being cut off by the feeling of somebody, or pony in this case, wrapping their forelegs around me. I sighed again as I turned my head to glance back at Sunny, who now had a sad look on her face. "I'm sorry. I don't want you to think any differently of me now than you have before, because treating me differently because of that will only anger me."
Sunny nodded. She let go of me and turned to walk out the front door. "I need to bring the kids back in." She said. God I hate sad moments, I really do. I walked over to her desk so I could move the kid's desk that I sat on back into place where it belongs. Before the kids came back, I snatched the paper Sunny had out when she was going to ask me those "questions."
I stuffed the paper into my pocket, walking back to my spot in the back of the classroom just as the children walked in with Sunny to take their seats.
After school was over, Sunny asked me if I could come over to her place tonight. When I asked her why she simply told me "It's a secret." She wrote down the address for me before I left. Along the way I pulled out the paper to read it, a smile growing on my face as I read it. Guess it cant hurt to do a bit of homework.
After walking inside I looked around for Daisy. I saw her in her garden, tending to her flowers and such. I took this opportunity to get back at her for the toilet flushing by locking her out back, so she's forced to walk around to the front door in order to go back inside. I then looked around for a pencil or pen, finding one in the kitchen inside a drawer.
I sat down at the table, writing answers and connecting the answers to the questions by circling both of them, connecting them together with a line. By the end this is what I answered: What kind of work did he do? I had no job. Did he have family back on earth? If yes, ask about them. Yes I had a family, three elder sisters, a mother and a father. What was his special talent? Being awesome I honestly don't know. What were his hobbies before Equestria? Singing. Does he have a special somepony? Depends on what you mean by that. If it's a pony then obviously you and Daisy are my special ponies, you helped me when I needed it the most.
With all the questions filled out I let out a satisfied sigh, before being death hugged around my neck once more. "You locked me out didn't you?" Daisy said as she started to choke me to death.
"Can..t... breeeathe..." I managed to get out, with the world getting darker around me. Daisy let me go, giving me a chance to take in a deep breath of air, beginning to cough. "Holy shi- *cough cough* Daisy what the hell was all that about?" I said. Daisy smiled at me before turning her back to me, walking towards the living room.
"Don't lock me out of my own home next time, or I'll have to choke you again." Daisy said, walking over to the couch to lie down on it. I gave her a small glare as I got up to head for the bathroom. While doing my business I thought of how I could get at her for choking me. Then an idea came to mind. She's embarrassed easily, right? So why not just do something to make her blush and feel embarrassed.
[/hr]
After walking out of the bathroom and down the stairs, Joel sat on the couch next to Daisy. She was lying on the couch with her rump facing his end of the couch, her head resting on the arm. He began to lie down right behind her, shifting them both so he could lie down with her back pushing against his body. She lifted her head up to look at him and asked "Joel, what are you doing?"
He began to wrap his arms around her. One hand on her stomach, the other on her chest. Her body became tense, her cheeks becoming a deep crimson red from feeling his warm hands once more. He began to massage her stomach with his hand, slowly moving it onto her side while his other hand began to massage her throat. She wanted him to tell him to stop, but the words kept getting caught in her throat.
She was holding back another sound in her throat, one that she didn't want Joel to hear come from her. She could feel his hands gently gliding along her neck, moving from the bottom of her chin slowly back down her neck towards her chest. His other hand moved back onto her stomach, pulling her closer to him, she could feel the warmth of his body.
She began to let out stifled moans. Joel leaned in close to her ear. "Promise to not choke me again?" He whispered, a smile forming on his face. Daisy glanced back at Joel, giving him a small, weak nod. Joel began to sit back up before Daisy turned to move on top of him, pinning him back down onto the couch as she nuzzled into his chest.
"Don't stop..." She mumbled. Joel placed his hands on her back and began to massage it slowly, pushing his fingers on her spine gently. His hands began to move up and down her back while he continued to massage her spine with his fingers, eventually moving one hand slowly up the back of her neck to the top of her head.
When she felt his fingers massage her spine, she couldn't hold back her moans. She knew this was embarrassing and shameful, feeling pleasure from what should be just a massage. She allowed him to massage her for at least another hour. He had moved her around through that hour, the last position she was in was with her back to him as he sat up on the couch, massaging her entire back and even at one point her rump. He didn't realize rubbing there would be the same as rubbing a human woman's ass.
He didn't stop until after she made a very specific sound and body movement. Once he realized what had happened, he began to blush just as much as she did. Nearly both of their faces were red at this point, with there being a mess on both Joel and the couch.
"Did... Did you just-..." He said, not able to finish his question. Without even needing to finish it, Daisy nodded. She hid her face from him with her hooves and burying it in the couch. She began to sob softly, now thinking Joel might hate her for doing such a thing. Instead she felt Joel get off the couch, pick her up, and carry her off to the bathroom. She looked at him while he gave her a soft smile.
"H-Hey, don't cry... I-I didn't really think you were enjoying it that much, honestly. I'll help you clean up." Joel said, getting a weak smile from the teary eyed mare. She started to wonder what was going on through his head though.
[/hr]
OH GOD NO!! THERE'S HORSE VAGINA JUICE ALL OVER MY PANTS!!
[/hr]
She started to wonder to herself. Maybe he enjoyed it too.
The entire time in the bathroom, there was an awkward silence. Joel was cleaning off his pants with a wet towel and drying it with a hair dryer, while Daisy was cleaning herself off in the shower. Joel finally spoke up "I-I uhm... Have to go to see Sunny at her place tonight."
Daisy looked over in the direction Joel was, as if she was staring at him through the curtains. "Why?" She asked. Sunny doesn't invite somepony over to her house unless it was very important.
"She didn't say why, she just told me it was a secret." Joel answered, now starting to wonder what she really wanted.
"Well, I'm locking the doors and going to bed at 10. Let her know that, so she doesn't shove you out when you have no place to go." Daisy said. Joel nodded and finished drying off his pants.
[/hr]
After cleaning myself off and grabbing a bite to eat, I left the house to head for Sunny's home. Along the way I noticed that very few ponies walked around at night. I was wandering around, following the directions Sunny wrote down for me on the note she handed me. About half way to her home, somebody bumped into me.
Just as I looked to see who it was, something hit my chest and busted into a cloud of pink smoke. The smoke filled my nostrils and burned in my throat, causing me to start gagging and coughing loudly. I fell to my hands and knees with tears filling my eyes. I heard a set of hooves rushing off before an intense pain shot through my entire body.
I held onto my head as I let out a scream, it was as if my entire body was being split into four.
