//------------------------------// // Just a Smile // Story: Just a Smile // by Quick Wit -Littlepip- //------------------------------// She never smiled, yet was never really in a bad mood. She was obsessed with rocks, writes poetry about rocks, and if Trixie had to guess, she slept on a bed of rocks. But there was one thing that confused Trixie greater than each of those. What was it that confused Trixie to no end? Trixie’s weird attraction to the strange mare known as Maud Pie. It started during Trixie’s first week working on the rock farm. She had to have an experienced farmer show her the ropes of rocking. Instead of the flamboyant Limestone Pie, or the bookworm Marble Pie. She got the dull, emotionless Maud pie. At first she was rather annoyed at having such a boring mentor, but after a couple days of being around the mare, Trixie’s attraction only grew more and more. It began as a simple contest she had with herself. Try to get Maud to show any type of happy emotion. Even a smile would do! Though after a little time, it turned into a yearning for Maud to give Trixie a smile. If she could earn that from a pony like Maud, then she’d know for sure that Maud possibly shared her feelings. Currently, Trixie was picking at a large rock, too busy at thinking about her crush. She wanted so bad to have Maud show give her a smile, that was the only thought on her mind day and night. Everytime she saw Maud, her heart skipped a beat. She felt extremely foolish, to be feeling this way about a mare who didn’t seem to care about love. But Maud’s always been there for her on Trixie’s tough days, willing to lend a helping hoof, even talking to Trixie about more personal matters. She was a true friend. The constant sound of the picking was the only thing to keep Trixie in this trance of thought. Her thoughts drifted from; Maud, to her life working at the farm, to the revenge she wanted to get on little miss  perfect Twilight Sprinkles. The day slowly began to drift into evening, and then into night. I really want to play golf, maybe it’s all these rocks, but golf just sounds like a good idea at the moment. What am I even talking about? Trixie began to slow down on her picking, realizing her thoughts were beginning to turn random. If it wasn’t for the light of Luna’s moon, Trixie would never of noticed Maud sitting a few feet in front of her, just staring at her. Trixie thought she looked rather beautiful in the moonlight. “Oh! Hey, is it quitting time?” Trixie asked, stretching out her sore arms. She alternated between magic and holding the pick with her hooves. “Yes. For the past six hours,” Maud replied in her normal monotone voice. “I’ve been waiting for you to finish your work.” “You’ve been waiting for Trixie to finish? The whole day?” “Yes.” Trixie’s heart expanded like a balloon at that comment. Perhaps Maud returns Trixie’s feelings. Before she had any real time to feel excitement, she realized how tired she really was. She let out a an exhausted moan, but knew if she sat down now, it’d be harder to move in a few minutes. “Trixie’s tired, and sore, let’s go back,” Trixie said as she began walking fast towards the farm house. Before she made it very far, Maud pulled Trixie on her back, causing her to yelp. “Put Trixie down!” “You’re tired, I’ll carry you back, O.K?” Maud asked, ignoring Trixie’s attempts at escaping. If it was any other time, Trixie would have continued fighting, but frankly, she was just too tired. With a sigh, she lay her head down, nodding. “Alright.” The walk was uneventful, Trixie felt like she fell asleep actually. In no time at all, Trixie was regretfully put in her bed, causing her to release a more painful moan. “Should I get you any pain-killers?” Maud questioned, a small amount of concern in her voice. “Trixie’s got it, thanks,” With a nod, Maud walked out, leaving Trixie to her own devices. She reached into her stand to grab a full whiskey bottle. “A little bit of Applejack Daniels will help the pain go away!” And with that, she cracked the bottle open and took the first sip.                         …………………………………… Trixie stumbled towards Maud’s room, thought’s set on only one thing. Pleasure. She came to a stop at Maud’s door, feeling slightly dizzy. She didn’t bother knocking, and just walked in. She stopped at the sight of Maud’s sleeping form, and felt her heart warm. Trixie slowly walked towards her, eyes focused on Maud. When Trixie reached the bed, she pulled the covers off of Maud. And carefully, she crawled on top of her, taking in her scent. She let out a quiet moan as she made contact with Maud. “Are you drunk?” Came an unexpected voice from below Trixie. Opening her eyes, she found herself looking directly into Mauds eyes. “With how much you love rocks, Trixie almost expected you to sleep like one too,” Trixie replied, her words slurring slightly. She leaned in kissing Maud on her cheek, slowly moving her neck. “What are you doing, Trixie?” Maud asked, not showing a single sign of being uncomfortable. “Trixie was having trouble by herself, and was hoping you’d help her.” Trixie brought her face right in front of Maud, and gave her a slight peck on the lips. “Trixie’s been hiding her feelings for too long, and tonight I’m gonna show you how I really feel. “If I even agree to it,” Maud stated, looking onto Trixie’s flushed face. “Will you?” Trixie asked, her spirits falling slightly. “Yes.” Trixie didn’t expect that, not one bit. She began smiling an awkward, drunken smile. Which fell away instantly at the sight of Maud’s careless look. “Why don’t you ever smile? Why do you not even smile for Trixie? Here I am, confessing my feelings for you, and you don’t even care!” Trixie growled out, raising her voice slightly. She began pulling away, looking towards the window. Before she could get too far, she was stopped by a pair of soft yet strong arms. She felt a hoof connect to her chin, pulling it to face Maud. When Trixie’s head stopped, and her vision became less blurred, she gasped at what she saw. There she was, the most neutral mare Trixie’s ever seen, smiling. Not a big smile, but enough to melt Trixie’s heart melt in happiness. “I kinda like you too, Trixie. I’m surprised at how dense you can be really.” Smiling, Trixie began pecking Maud’s face as fast as she could. Causing Maud to release what must have been a giggle. “So? You still want to pleasure me?” “Yes, Trixie does. After all, all she wanted was a just a smile!” And with that final line, the new couple had a wild, yet quiet, night having as much fun as possible.
