//------------------------------// // A Mare, Some Friends, and a Stack of Dishes // Story: Something About Her // by LightningBass94 //------------------------------// "WAAAAAAHHH!" "AAAAAHHHHH!" "Wha-huh?" It was noon, and a startled dragon had come home to see his sister figure in bed with another mare, suddenly happier than ever that he had stayed the night at Sweet Apple Acres. Twilight had shot up at the sight of Spike, quickly pulling up the duvet to cover herself. Why? Who knows, really? They were almost always naked, anyway. Trixie, on the other hand, had groggily rose from her deep slumber, absolutely confused by all the yelling around her. A tiny drool spot could be seen on Twilight's shoulder where her muzzle had been. After his initial shock, Spike grinned happily. "Finally! I mean, I certainly didn't expect you two to jump into bed so quickly, but Rarity and I were starting to think you two would never get together!" His grin became a smirk. "I'm so getting my own room now." He turned to walk away, and almost as an afterthought, added, "By the way, it's noon, and we have company." Twilight jumped out of the bed. "Oh no! Company? Now? Why?" She ran to her vanity and began to make herself a bit more presentable. Trixie just lay on the bed, watching her new marefriend run around frantically. "So, does this mean I don't get cuddles?" She gave a little pout that was rewarded with a quick, but loving kiss. "Later," Twilight beamed at her. "For now, we have exciting news to tell our friends!" With that, she ran out of the room, leaving her marefriend to get ready by herself. Trixie rolled her eyes amusedly. "You're such a dork!" She called out loud enough for Twilight to hear from the staircase. She stretched cutely, a small yawn escaping her lips as she crawled from the bed. She walked to the vanity and began to slowly and calmly run the brush through her silver mane. She sighed contentedly as she finished. "Alright, let's get this over with." She giggled to herself. "Twilight certainly is excited." In the dining room, all their friends had gathered. Spike had apparently served a lunch of dandelion sandwiches and peanut butter crackers. It was a combination of her and Twilight's favorite snack foods. She pranced in happily and took a seat next to Twilight around the table. She gave her a quick peck on the cheek and raised her sandwich in her azure aura to take a bite when, mouth agape, centimeters from the sandwich, she noticed everypony staring at her. She lowered her sandwich to return the gaze. "Yes?" She asked, a brow raised. "Y'all mind tellin' us what that was all about, Sugarcube?" Applejack responded bluntly. "Yeah!" Rainbow Dash piped in. She even had her head cocked to the side in confusion. Rarity, on the other hoof, was fully aware of what was going on. She shared a knowing look with Spike, but kept quiet. Fluttershy remained silent as well. While she was curious about what had just transpired, she felt no need to draw any attention to herself with the question already asked. Pinkie Pie had leaned in, anticipating the answer, but waiting -not so- patiently for it. Twilight and Trixie's faces lit up with twin blushes. They looked at each other before returning their gaze to their friends. Twilight was the one to speak that time. "Trixie and I are marefriends now..." "PAAARRTTTYYYY!!!!" Pinkie's voice reverberated off the walls with a volume that would put the Royal Canterlot Voice to shame. Before any of them could respond to her outburst, she had zipped out the front door, leaving a gust of wind in her wake. Rarity released a squee and clopped her hooves together. "Finally! I am so excited for the two of you!" "Oh my. Well, I'm glad you're both happy. I certainly can't judge either of you for your sexual preferences. I find Discord quite attractive and he's of a different species," Fluttershy's whisper was nearly inaudible, a large blush spreading across her entire face. "Alright, cool!" Rainbow brohoofed Trixie and smiled at them. "Spitfire and I will have someone to double date with, for once." Applejack sat back, her face expressionless and unreadable. "Ah don't understand none of it. All a y'all got somethin' strange goin' on but Rarity, but jus' 'cause ah don' gettit, don't mean ah can' accept it. Y'all're mah friends, and whatever decision y'all make, ah'll stand behind ya." Trixie couldn't be sure, but she was fairly certain Twilight was actually tearing up as she responded, "Thankyou, AJ. That's all we would ever ask of you." She held Trixie's hoof in her own and squeezed. AJ just tipped her hat in response and stood up, "Welp, ah best be gettin' back ta mah farm. Ah gotta' lot a work ta get done if'n ah wanna' go ta whatever kinda' party Pinkie's plannin' later," She smiled and walked out the door, closing it gently behind her. Rainbow, Fluttershy and Rarity stayed to chat for around an hour before they each decided to take their leave. Spike had gone off to take a nap, which left the lovebirds alone with a stack of dishes. "Trixie, would you mind helping me with these?" Trixie just nodded with a smile and got up. As she walked into the kitchen, she levitated the dishes along with her. She put a little extra sway in her hips as she turned the corner, winking at Twilight on her way into the kitchen and eliciting a heavy blush from the easily-flustered alicorn. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Bump! "Hey, Trixie," Twilight complained, though more amused than anything. She swayed, bumping Trixie's rump with her own in a feeble attempt at revenge. That only seemed to taunt her foe as her curvy blue rump once again struck Twilight's, slightly harder this time around. She giggled. "We're supposed to be doing the dishes," Twilight attempted to complain again, but it was all for not. "What ever are you talking about, Sparkle," Trixie voiced grandiloquently, "We are doing the dishes!" Bump! Twilight giggled now, her complaints becoming weaker. She bumped into her marefriend even harder. "Stop bumping me with your rump!" "But Twilight, it is you who has been bumping into Trixie's rump. She cannot help it if you feel a magnetizing effect to her glorious plot!" Trixie giggled as she bumped Twilight once more, quite a bit more forcefully than when they started. This was responded in kind with a heavy blush and a bump just hard enough to topple her slender form, which it did. Seeing her on the ground, Twilight quickly gave Trixie her full attention. "Omigosh Trixie! Are you ok?" Rather than respond, Trixie gave her a half lidded gaze, complete with smile, and raised her hoof to be helped up. Twilight took it only to be pulled down on top of the tricky magician. "Aaah!" She fell with a giggle and stared into Trixie's eyes, their bodies rubbing against each other and their muzzles just centimeters apart. "I love you, Trixie Lulamoon," Twilight whispered. "And I love you, Twilight Sparkle." The mares fell into a passionate kiss. The dishes could wait.
