Maude felt useless to her sister, she gave up cheering her up and decided to just pack her bags and go back to her rock farm.
She just walked out the front door to Sugarcube corner when she ran into another pony, she fall back to the ground. "Ugh..."
"Maude?" said a deep male voice. Maude looked up to see that it was Big Mac.
"Oh...what do you want?" the gray mare asked as she got back up. She still felt ashamed at what she almost did to him.
"Ah just wanted to talk to yer sister." Mac answered. "How's she doin'?"
"Not so good...she refuses to leave her room..." she just sighed. "I feel like it was all my fault."
"Yer fault?!" exclaimed a confused Mac. "Ah thought it was mine?"
"Look Mac," began the mare. "Do I have feelings for you? Yes. Would I gladly share you with my sister? Yes, but only if you were willing. I went along with the worst plan Pinkie has ever came up with...and with Pinkie that is saying a lot." admitted Maude. She felt her stern face falter so she turned around from the stallion.
"Are ya sure there is nothin' ah can do to help?" asked a concerned Mac.
"No! There is nothing you can do! So please stop asking that question!" snapped the mare as a tear flowed down her cheek.
The stallion did not know what to say next.
"You know Mac...it is perfectly find for you to say 'no' to a mare...why do you always feel the need to do whatever one asks?"
"Because it is the polite thing to do."
"Tell me Mac...out of all the mares you have been with...how many did you rut just because they wanted you to and not because they truly romantically love you." asked the gray mare.
Mac was about to answer but once he thought about it, he realized that Maude actually had a point. He was so focused on making mares in need happy that he always forgot to weigh the risks and rewards of doing such a thing. He always failed to comprehend what it would do to him.
"I am surprised that you had not gotten anyone pregnant." stated Maude.
"Eeyup." agreed Mac with shame.
"Just go talk to my sister...she really needs for you to be with her again...and if she does ask you to rut her senseless...just please for all that is decent weigh your risks and rewards...don't just do it because she's asking or begging." pleaded Maude to the red stallion.
Mac said nothing but nod. Maude said nothing in return but to leave for the train station, there was nothing else she could do.
Mac walked upstairs and knocked on Pinkie's bedroom door.
"GO AWAY!" yelled Pinkie from inside.
"It's me...Big Mac..." answered the stallion.
"WHAT DO YOU WANT?!"
"To talk..."
"...the door is not locked..." admitted the mare from inside. Mac took that as his cue to open the door and walk inside. The bedroom was dark, all curtains were drawn shut. "What do you want to talk about?" asked the mare from under the covers.
"Ah just wanted to see how yer holdin' up is all." answered the stallion as he sat down next to the bed.
"Well...I'm doing fine...now go away." demanded Pinkie.
"Ah just want ya to be the old Pinkie Pie again, ah don't want this break-up to affect ya like this." said the stallion with guilt.
"Having friends is super duper great and all...but it's nothing if you don't have somepony to spill your guts and emotion for...I'm sorry I was such a horrible marefriend Mac." Pinkie slowly peaked her head from out of the covers.
"If ya really did wanted intimacy...ya just could've asked." stated the stallion. "Sure ah may say 'nnope' but it beats makin' yer sister seduce me so ah can be guilt-tripped into ruttin' ya."
The pink mare knew he was right, but she had no idea what to say.
Mac climbed up on her bed and wrapped a foreleg around her. "Thank ya for bein' my longest relationship so far...ah appreciated it." he smiled. "Ya taught me that ah can have a true relationship not based on sex."
Pinkie smiled from that thanks the stallion gave her. "Anything for you Mackie...anything for you..." snuggled up to him.
They both stared into each others eyes in awe, faces grew closer. "Mackie?" asked the mare.
"Eeyup?"
"If I asked you that I wanted us to be intimate right now but only out of love for each other instead of lust...what would you say?"
Mac smiled and thought about it. "Normally ah would say 'nnope'." he answered.
The mare's ears flopped down and her eyes went down in sadness.
"But since it is ya...it's a definate 'eeyup'."
Pinkie's entire face perked up and a big happy grin formed on her face. "Really?!"
Mac just nodded.
Pinkie immediately tackled Mac down on the bed, she kissed the stallion passionately and deeply. "WOO HOO!"
Hush now, quiet now, the sun is down you sleepy head
Hush now, quiet now it's time to go to bed.
Fluttershy sang her signature lullaby to Scootaloo, the pegasus filly went right to sleep during the second verse. Fluttershy gave a warm heartfelt smile as she tucked the filly in. The yellow mare turned to leave the room when she was Bulk leaned up against the door frame.
"You would make an amazing mother." was all the muscular stallion noted.
Fluttershy blushed. "Y-You really think so?"
"From the way you took care of Scoots, I really do." nodded Bulk as they both left the room and locked the door behind them.
"I really hope to be the perfect stay-at-home wife and mother someday, it feels great taking care of others like my animals...but I always dream of having foals of my own and raising a family."
"And I really hope to find a new mother for Scoots...she needs a female role-model, I know she has one in Rainbow Dash, but she needs a mother figure and I doubt Dash can ever be one any time soon."
Bulk walked Fluttershy to the front door. "So...see you tomorrow?" asked the stallion.
"I will always make time to visit you and your daughter." smiled the mare back.
"Good night Shy."
"Good night Bulk." strangely, both of them did not want to leave. They just stood by the front door staring at each other, their hearts pounded in their chests.
"So..." awkwardly began Fluttershy.
"Want to spend the night?" nervously blurted out the stallion. "Uh..." embarrassed.
"Uh...uh...yes." she nervously answered.
"What was that?" he did not quite caught that.
"Yes." she answered again slightly louder.
"So that was indeed a-"
"YES!" desperately exclaimed Fluttershy, she could not take it anymore, she really wanted to show the stallion how much he meant to her. She flew up and kissed Bulk deeply. The stallion was shocked at first, but went along with it.
Fluttershy quickly realized what she was doing and broke the kiss, her face blushed heavily. "S-Sorry..."
"T-Thats okay...to be honest...you're the first mare to kiss me like that in a long time." Bulk smiled.
"Is that a good or bad thing?"
"A very good thing." he gave the mare an honest smile and kissed her back, a more tender and loving kiss. The pink maned pegasus felt herself melt from the kiss, she felt her whole world grow brighter and the weight of the world fall from her shoulders.
I just found the perfect stallion for me! happily squealed Fluttershy in her head. YAY!
