Spike yelped and barked as he ran around the dog park, occasionally chasing a squirrel or two, or just playing with a group of dogs. Of course, Spike wasn’t alone, he was brought here by the only other human he actually trusted, Fluttershy. She was busy setting at a bench, keeping him in her field of vision at all times. Once in awhile a human guy would show up and try to hit on the shy girl, but Spike was quick to come to her aid and get between them.
The young dog knew Fluttershy well enough to know when she was feeling uncomfortable around people, even if they liked animals or had one of their own. Just as much human males, sometimes a lot of dogs would crowd her, and Spike once again came to her aid, doing crowd control. She didn’t mind it, but even Spike knew that being at the bottom of a dog pile wasn’t fun.
He knew she couldn’t help it, Fluttershy just had this aura, this feeling of safety and kindness that just drew you to her, and made you want to protect her. Spike had witnessed, multiple times, how the shy girl would stroll up to the meanest, biggest dogs or animal in general and speak to it calmly and nicely without any fear. And it never ceased to amaze him how said animal would just willingly release its anger and negative emotions in her presence, and more often than not ended up protecting Fluttershy from other meaner things.
Still, even though Spike liked being around Fluttershy, he was still missing Twilight. She had been gone with Sunset for three days straight now and no word from her. Even as he ran around the park, Spike was mentally kicking himself or not speaking up when he had the chance.
But then again, how the heck am I supposed to explain to Twilight that I can talk now?
Truthfully, Spike was unsure of why he was able to speak, but he knew it started to happen some time ago, after she started having those strange powers. Slowly, but surely, he was able to think differently, comprehend things that for the longest time eluded him. Like, why humans don’t like to sniff other humans’ butts in order to get to know them better? Or why they don’t see the mailman as the most evil being on the planet?
Of course, these answers came in time with each passing day, until one day Spike was able to speak, literally, forming full sentences. The words humans spoke to him were always garbled, a bit, catching every other word spoken. Unless, of course, it was someone he truly trusted and cared about, then Spike made the extra effort to listen to them and heed their words. Now though, he was able to understand their language and in time use it.
Spike wanted to tell Twilight, to just leap into her lap and just say “Twilight, I can talk! Isn’t that great?!” Twilight often talked to him as if he could understand her, and to a degree he did, but she knew he didn’t understand, but Spike was always willing to listen, and listening really seemed to help Twilight. It became more apparent in the recent weeks, with Twilight acting sad and distant towards that Sunset girl. She was always a strange thing to him, who surprisingly smelled like a human and a…horse?
Whatever the case was, Spike saw how Twilight was taking most of it, and he wasn’t sure she could take the fact that her dog could now talk back to her. So Spike kept his mouth shut, hoping that Twilight would calm enough to where he could one day speak to her and say all the things he wanted to say to her.
Like how happy he was with her. How he’ll always be there by her side. And how he’ll never be able to thank her enough for saving him from the pound when he was just a little pup. For now though, time would tell when the moment was right, till then, Spike was content with the situation. Besides, it was uncanny how truthful humans could be when they thought their dogs couldn’t understand a word they were saying, you could learn some interesting things.
Like now for example, Spike spotted a familiar face walking towards Fluttershy. It the blue girl with the different colored hair, Rainbow Dash he remembered. Spike ran over to Fluttershy and quickly ran around Rainbow’s legs, showing how excited he was to see her.
“Geez Spike, aren’t you spunky today,” said Rainbow as she crouched down and gave Spike a good scratch behind the ears.
Oh yeah, Rainbow, Twi, Rarity, and Fluttershy, the only four human girls I know who know just where to scratch, thought Spike.
Rainbow looked up and smiled at Fluttershy, rather awkwardly as it seemed. “Hey Shy.”
“Rainbow? What’s wrong?”
“Heh, heh…well…um…d-do you mind if I set down with you?”
Fluttershy shook her head. “Not at all.”
The pink haired girl patted the seat next to her and Rainbow graciously accepted the offer. Spike leaped onto Fluttershy’s lap, circling a bit before just lying down. Fluttershy ran her hand over his back smoothly, petting him gently as he rested from his head and simply listened to the two human girls talk.
“Okay…um…first off: Have you heard anything about Twilight and Sunset?” Rainbow asked.
Fluttershy gave a small nod. “Mmm-hmm, my friend says they’re doing well. They apparently had a few more troubles and things on their minds that they themselves didn’t know they were carrying.”
Rainbow’s eyes widened slightly as she turned to face Fluttershy. “R-Really?! Are they okay? Do we -?”
“It’s alright Rainbow, Tree Hugger’s already helped them come to terms with them. She thinks they should be okay before the end of the week, at least, that’s what’s she hoping for anyway.”
Rainbow Dash released a sigh of relief, at the same time Spike did as well. The sports girl reclined on the bench, feeling relieved to hear this news, and yet she still seemed pensive about something.
“Twilight and Sunset aren’t the only things on your mind?” Fluttershy asked.
Rainbow Dash chuckled at that. “Never could hide anything from you.”
Fluttershy smiled and added an “Uh-uh”.
The prismatic girl released a heavy sigh and moved forward, resting her elbows on her knees.
“Shy…you know that…well…you know that I bat for the other team.”
“Yes, you told me a while back.”
“Yeah…ya see, I think…I think I might be crushing, again.”
Fluttershy went red in the face. “U-U-Um R-R-Rainbow, I’m flattered, but I haven’t changed my mind about just wanting to stay friends since you asked me out Freshman year!”
Rainbow’s left eye twitched as she blushed hard. She quickly shook her head and made an X symbol with her hands. “Nonononononono! I-I wasn’t talking about you, I swear Shy! I know you want to stay friends, and I’m still totally cool with that!”
Silence hung in the air as both girls waited for the awkwardness to dissipate between them, old memories of their Freshman year coming back to them.
“Sorry for assuming…”
“No, no…and given the way things have been going for me, I don’t blame you for thinking that.”
“No problem, well then, if not me, then who?” Fluttershy inquired.
“That’s the thing…it’s not just a…a single ‘who’,” Rainbow confessed.
Fluttershy turned to Rainbow, now having her full attention to this. “You mean…you like two different girls?! Oh my…are…do I know them?”
“Eh…yes…the first one is…” Rainbow inhaled and exhaled as she struggled to get the first name out. “Twilight.”
Fluttershy blinked. “Oh Twilight, I knew about that.”
Rainbow’s eyes bugged out of her skull at the same time her jaw dropped. She then quickly got in Fluttershy’s face, red from embarrassment and confusion. “WHO TOLD YOU?!”
To this, Fluttershy had a deadpan expression. “Rainbow, we’ve been friends since we were little. Out of all of us, who do you think would’ve noticed your crush on Twilight?”
“Oh…” Rainbow’s embarrassed fury snuffed itself out. “You knew this whole time…sorry.”
Fluttershy smiled and patted Rainbow on the shoulder. “It’s alright. So who’s this other girl? Is it Applejack, or maybe Rarity?”
If Rainbow was drinking something, this would be where she would’ve spat it out.
“APPLEJACK!? ………Okay, I could see that. But Rarity?”
“Well, opposites attract.”
Rainbow took a moment to think about that. She had to admit, despite her high-class and girly-girl ways from time to time, Rarity could be strong and steadfast when she needed to be. And, well, Rarity did have a nice figure, model curves, and that voice…Rainbow quickly shook her head, dislodging those thoughts.
Okay, no, I don’t need another fantasy, thought Rainbow.
“It’s not either them…and before you ask, no, not Sunset.” Rainbow took in another breath before revealing the name. “It’s…Gilda.”
Fluttershy froze up, feeling her blood run cold at the mention of that name. “I-I’m sorry, I thought you said ‘Gilda’.”
“I did…”
“Didn’t she want to hurt you?”
“Used to.”
“She beat up Sunset.”
“I know.”
“And didn’t she fight you and Sunset at the mall when you two were a…” Fluttershy looked around her before saying the next word. “…Firestorm?”
“Yes, yes, and yes…But that last one wasn’t completely her and Lightning Dust’s fault, there was some evil magic and stuff messing with their heads…and honestly, most of why she hated me is really my fault…”
Fluttershy raised her eyebrow in disbelief, but the pained expression on her face told her otherwise. Her encounter with Gilda was less than friendly, and ever since then the mere mention of her name made Fluttershy cringe, but then again she did the same thing when it came to Sunset Shimmer. Although to be fair, Fluttershy felt something off about Sunset even during her rage fueled tirade, something painful.
“Okay,” Fluttershy took a breath and calmed herself, “so you like Gilda and Twilight? Do either of them know?”
“Twilight knows I like her, I told her before she left. Gilda…she’s still trying to forgive herself…and, I’m trying to figure out how to feel about her…”
“But you said you liked her, right…?” Fluttershy asked.
“I know, I know! That’s just it! I do, but I like Twilight too!” Rainbow got up and started pacing back and forth in front of Fluttershy, causing Spike to follow her movements, getting sense of nostalgia from watching Twilight.
“I mean, I told Twilight that - no matter what happened - there would be someone there who cares about her! And I do! But then…I asked Gilda to spend the night with me at my house -” Rainbow saw the look on Fluttershy’s face, and that her body had changed to a red color. “NOT LIKE THAT! Well…maybe we did it…a little…mostly out of comfort…ugh!”
Rainbow face-palmed herself, dragging the same hand down her face.
“I just don’t want to make her feel, if - when - Twilight and Sunset figure things out, like second prize or something…y’know?”
Fluttershy could see the dilemma, but then again, it didn’t sound like that was all of it. “You feel responsible for how Gilda became how she is, don’t you?”
Rainbow collapsed onto her rear as she stared at the grass. “I’d be lying if I said I didn’t. She was actually just as shy and scared as you were when we were little. The only difference was that after I started being friends with her, she started to become a lot more confident, and started to give those jerks back at the Camp a good ass kicking. But then…she confessed that she liked me, really liked me, and kissed me…first kiss really. I pushed her away and avoided her like the plague after that, instead of talking to her about it…”
Fluttershy picked up Spike a moved to sit on the grass with Rainbow. “But that shouldn’t be the only reason you want to try and be with Gilda. Especially if she feels bad like she does.”
Rainbow put the heel of her palms against her forehead, groaning in dismay over how her life had suddenly turned into some romance-drama sitcom.
“Suddenly I feel like all the evil societies and superpowered psychos are the easier thing to deal with,” said Rainbow.
Fluttershy gave a small smile and patted Rainbow on the shoulder. “Whatever happens I’ll be there with you, and so will the rest of us. Believe me, I know what it feels like to want to be with someone, but can’t…”
Now it was Rainbow’s turn to raise an eyebrow. “Wait, you like someone? Who?”
“A-choo!” Tree Hugger sneezed.
“You okay TH?” Sunset asked.
Tree Hugger wiped her nose and sniffled. “Oh don’t worry, everything’s copacetic. Although I get sense someone just talked about me. Hmm…oh well, time for your next opening.”
Tree Hugger began walking to her hut but stopped when she didn’t feel the presence of her wayward students. Sunset and Twilight still stood in the middle of the camp, looking a little apprehensive at going back in for another chakra opening.
“No offense Tree Hugger, these things have been a little intense, and while we’ve been able to deal with things that we probably never would bring up, I’m still having trouble seeing how this will affect our magic development or our Firestorm powers,” said Twilight as she rubbed the back of her head.
“I’m with Sparky on this one, don’t get us wrong, working through this personal stuff has helped, but…not exactly seeing how it’s helping,” added Sunset.
Tree Hugger smiled her usual laid back smile. “Well, why don’t you try?” Twilight and Sunset glanced at each other, a look of apprehension plain on their faces. “Chill Sisters, no one will find you here in in this little sanctuary.”
With a reluctant sigh from both girls they shouted as one.
“FIRESTORM!!!”
“FIRESTORM!!!”
Twilight and Sunset were immediately engulfed in their respective flames, a few short seconds later, emerged in their Firestorm forms. But something was definitely different. The flames seemed richer, stronger, and the emblems on their chests glowed with a sort of resonance.
“Sister Twilight, use your magic,” said Tree Hugger.
Twilight looked about and focused on a log in the distance. She channeled the magic within her, deciding to use the telekinesis spell that Sunset had shown her a while back. The log suddenly lifted off the ground with little effort, Twilight then beckoned the log to float towards her, and with a flick of her wrist the log stopped a foot away from her. Staying there was if awaiting her order.
“I…I can actually control it!” Twilight proclaimed with glee.
Tree Hugger nodded and then looked towards Sunset. “Sister Sun?”
Sunset focused on her magic casting various spells at once, levitation, gravity, she even turned an apple into an orange. It was done with little to no effort, like she once was able to do back in Equestria.
“I don’t believe it!” Sunset yelled.
“Believe, Sisters, this is only the beginning we still have much to go.”
ELSEWHERE…
“Honestly Rares, Ah don’t know how ya keep talkin’ me inta doin’ this!”
Applejack stood upon a platform in Carousel Boutique, her arms held out to the sides, and her face scrunched into an annoyed frown. She was wearing a rather lovely dress, as astonishing as it sounded. There three mirrors around the platform, each angled to give the perfect view of the one standing on the platform, and allowing Rarity to see her creation from all angles.
Her face was scrunched up as she scrutinized her work, eyes narrowed behind her red framed glasses. Rarity needed a model for her latest creation in the works, it was meant to be a dress that could be suit even the most tomboy of girls, originally, she had thought of Sunset Shimmer when making this dress. The former Queen Bee and bully of CHS, despite her edginess, had a wonderful figure. She exhumed physical strength, and Rarity had to admit, Sunset was beautiful.
Rarity felt it was a shame that the reforming girl didn’t have a proper dress of her own, she had made all the girls dresses for the Fall Formal, and Sunset had always bought - so she was told - her dresses off the rack. Since Sunset has become a part of their group and was dating Twilight, she only felt it proper that she’d have her own dress to complement the change in her ways.
Unfortunately, she lacked Sunset to fit it and needed a base model. The only other girls she knew who could match Sunset’s physique were either Rainbow Dash and Applejack, and since Rainbow Dash was always vocal with her irritation, Rarity decided to go with Applejack.
Although AJ wasn’t vocal, she was more the type to quietly brood and hold a stoic expression.
“Applejack come now, this is for Sunset, and with the Spring Fling coming up, I’d like to have something smashing for them when they return. Perhaps attend the dance as the new couple that they are.” Rarity explained.
The cowgirl huffed, she understood, but it was still a bit annoying. Although, she couldn’t say that she wasn’t amazed at how Rarity worked. It wasn’t everyday that the girls got the chance to see Rarity in action when making a dress, sometimes they wanted to ask, but they respected that the fashionista needed her space to create, it never did anyone any good to crowd an artist in the midst of creation.
It was funny, Applejack lived on a farm, and ever since she was little she knew the meaning of “hard work”. Which was why she found she connected well with Rainbow Dash, both of them had a competitive streak, and both were good in athletics. But with Rarity, she never imagined seeing herself being friends with such a girl. She was prim, proper, and on occasion OCD about cleanliness. That’s not to say that Applejack was against it, but sometimes Rarity could overreact to a little dirt and grime, especially where hard work was involved.
And yet, here Rarity was, her brow was fairly sweaty, and the look in her eyes was the same whenever Rainbow, or AJ herself, were deep in concentration when working hard. It was actually kind of cute seeing Rarity like this. She also didn’t realize how gentle she was when working with a model.
Rarity’s hands lightly caressed AJ’s side, her fingers searching for any imperfection or needed modification. The feeling of her touch was…comfortably uncomfortable. It sent a tingling sensation through her body, especially when she ran her hands up her back and over her shoulders, using the tape measure and jotting down notes for later. Unfortunately, Rainbow’s words kept echoing in her head, about how it was to like another girl.
Applejack didn’t want to admit it, but it had been on her mind maybe once or twice, but recently, with the reveal of Rainbow’s orientation, and Sunset and Twilight’s relationship, it was becoming something that she couldn’t ignore. She knew she liked boys, but her curiosity kept getting the better of her. What would it be like?
“Applejack? Applejack?!” Rarity shouted.
The blonde girl shook her head, snapping herself out of her reverie.
“Huh, what?!”
“Applejack, I was asking your permission to get your more…ahem, private measurements. Also, I’d like to ask you permission to check the bust while you’re in it, and it would require me to touch your chest, are you alright with that? Feel free to decline, dear, I’ll respect your boundaries.”
Applejack gulped, up until now Rarity had avoided the more problematic areas, but now she was asking for permission to do so. Uncertainty crept into her mind, would it be okay? Rarity was one of her best friends, and it wasn’t like either haven’t seen each other in their underwear when they changed in the locker room, so it should be okay…right?
“S-Sure, Rares…”
Rarity arched an eyebrow at that response. “Are you positive? It’s quite alright if you don’t want me to, I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable.”
Applejack took a deep breath and exhaled.
“Ah’m sure, we’re both girls. Not like Ah don’t got anythin’ you don’t.”
Rarity still looked skeptical, but proceeded. “Very well, just tell me if you want me to stop at any time you feel uncomfortable, promise?”
“Promise.”
With the conditions stated, Rarity began to measure Applejack, gently bringing the measuring tape around her hips and tightening it until she was able to get an accurate number. She jotted it down and moved onto her waist, neither of those were too uncomfortable for Applejack, not much unlike how Granny Smith measured her for something she made. Although, when Rarity brought the tape measure around her bust, she couldn’t help but feel a little more nervous, especially since the fashionista was right in front of her.
Rarity settled the tape measure and arched an eyebrow at Applejack, while giving her a coy grin.
“My, my, my, Applejack, I didn’t know you had such impressive ‘assists’.”
“Rarity just do what ya need to,” grumbled Applejack.
“Just making an observation, darling.”
Rarity put the tape measure on the platform and began fiddling with the chest area of the dress, checking to see if it was too tight or too loose. All while Applejack tried to maintain her composure, trying to keep any stray thoughts from lingering on the sensation of Rarity’s hands on her stomach and her chest.
“How does it feel around the middle, does it need to be a little looser?” Rarity asked.
“N-No, it’s fine, I-I can breathe!”
“Excellent! Now, in the bust area? Mind you I’ve left a little room so that it can be worn with, or without, a bra. Does it, and pardon my choice of word - feel as if they might slip out?”
Well if Ah wasn’t thinkin’ about that happenin’ earlier, Ah am thinkin’ about now!
“No, doesn’t feel too loose,” said Applejack.
Rarity removed her hands from Applejack, allowing the farmgirl to release a sigh of relief.
“Very good, I’ll have to compare your measurements to Sunsets to see which is more accurate a number to use, at least until she and Twilight return. Now let me help you remove that.”
Applejack stood silently as Rarity walked up behind her, she gulped upon hearing the zipper zip down, and the slight tightness of the dress begin to loosen. She knew Rarity was going to help her out of the dress, she helped her get into it, and didn’t want the new creation to get accidentally torn or scuffed. Once it was down to her ankles, Rarity helped Applejack step out of it and onto the floor. Rarity checked her newly created dress and sighed, relieved that all the handling hadn’t seemed to damage it.
Unfortunately, this left Applejack in nothing but her panties and bra. Despite the fact that both of them have seen each other in such affairs in the locker room, it was a different setting, and a different situation, and Applejack wasn’t dealing with these strange and provocative feelings before.
“I put your clothes over there on my bed, Applejack, you can get dressed if you wish,” said Rarity as she brought the dress over to her work table.
“Uh, y-yeah, sorry! Ah’ll borrow your restroom and change.”
“Oh don’t be silly, just change right there, darling.”
Applejack groaned inwardly, but complied. She sat on the edge of Rarity’s bed, slipping her shirt on and buttoning it up, all the while her emerald eyes couldn’t stop staring at Rarity. It frustrated Applejack, Rainbow’s words. Applejack knew she wasn’t like that, so why was she so damn curious about it? Was being with another girl, thinking of another girl in that way, really alright?
Honestly, Applejack never really cared about that sort of stuff, who people chose to spend their lives with was their business. So long as no one’s getting hurt, and they both love each other, girl-girl or boy-boy or girl-boy, it was the feelings that mattered in the end.
Right now though, Applejack’s feelings were in conflict. She couldn’t deny that Rarity was beautiful, every boy in school would attest to that, even some of the girls. Rarity was everything Applejack wasn’t, poised, graceful, refined, a real lady. There was that time that Trenderhoof guy tried to hit on her, but he was more in love with the farm life that Applejack could provide him rather than loving her directly, forcing Rarity to act country to attract him, and forcing AJ herself to act like a high society lady to snap her friend back to normal.
Although, she will admit, Rarity did look cute in some overalls and a straw hat.
“Applejack, are you alright?” Rarity asked.
“Huh, y-yeah, why'dya ask?”
“Well, because you seem to be staring either at me or into space, and you’re only halfway dressed.”
Applejack looked down at herself, noticing that she still hadn’t buttoned up her shirt or put on her denim skirt yet. The farmgirl blushed and quickly closed the shirt and sat down, bringing her legs together.
“S-Sorry Rares! Ah just got distracted for a minute!”
The fashionista raised an eyebrow, she spun in her swivel chair till she was facing Applejack’s direction, and then removed her pointed glasses.
“Applejack, if there’s something on your mind you can ask me. I may have a thing for gossip, but I’m not one to divulge the secrets of my friends. So if there’s anything you wish to talk about, know that it will be held in the strictest of confidence,” assured Rarity.
Was it alright to talk about this, with Rarity? She was okay with Sunset and Twilight, and technically this was along the same lines but not exact, so maybe it was okay. Right? At the very least she needed to say something, secrets weren’t her thing, and eventually, she needed to tell someone before she burst.
“Just…Just promise me that you won’t breathe a word of this to the girls, or to Sweetie, Ah don’t want her talkin’ to Apple Bloom about this,” said Applejack in a serious tone.
Rarity nodded firmly. “You have my word, Applejack.”
The farmgirl released a heavy sigh, gathering her nerves before speaking what was on her mind.
“Lately…after findin’ out about Twilight and Sunset, and then…well…ugh!” Applejack ran her hand through her golden locks in frustration. “Ah just…Look, Rarity, same rule applies here for what about to tell ya, because it won’t make much sense unless Ah do!”
Again, Rarity nodded.
“Okay…Rainbow Dash, she’s…she’s like Twi and Sunset, she like girls.”
Rarity blinked. “Oh my…I, well, I heard the occasional rumor, but I never gave it much credit. Girls like Rainbow Dash are usually the target of such rumors, but, to hear that they’re actually true…it makes sense that she’d keep her orientation secret, not wanting to prove the masses right.”
“Yeah, that’s kinda what Ah gathered from her. Anyway, it was after the whole fight at my farm when Ah had Sunset and Twi stay at my place to lay low. Dash and Ah got to talkin’ about the whole thing, and the topic came up about how she wished Ah swung that way so we could date.”
Applejack chuckled. “Even said Ah’d make an ‘awesome girlfriend’.”
“Oh my,” exclaimed Rarity in a scandalous tone, “now I have to admit, you two would compliment each other well.”
“Yeah, and then she goes teasin’ about askin’ me to kiss her! Then she goes and says that even girls who don’t swing that way sometimes mess around other girls just to…to know! And…”
The blonde girl sprang to her feet and began pacing as the emotions and thoughts came up in her mind.
“And then she goes and says that my freckles are cute!”
Rarity cleared her throat. “Well, speaking objectively, your freckles are quite cute.”
“Not helpin’!”
“Sorry, darling, go ahead.”
“It’s just, after all that Ah’ve been havin’ random ass thoughts about other girls…! Ah know Ah like boys, Ah still get hot and bothered by ‘em! But now…!”
Rarity rose from her chair and intercepted Applejack in her pacing path, making the farmgirl cease. Her ivory hands took hold of the other girl’s tanned hands gently, giving them a reassuring squeeze.
“Darling, you needn’t beat yourself up over such things. It’s natural to question one's’ sexuality, it’s how we grow and learn more about ourselves. If you let it consume you, then it will drag you into some dark places, but you’ve done the right thing, talking to someone is a good first step.”
Applejack exhaled, calming down a bit. Rarity guided her friend back to the bed, where both of them sat down. The farmgirl stared down at the floor, with Rarity’s hip pressed against her, giving Applejack some comfort through contact.
“Since Ah’m bein’ honest here, Ah gotta tell ya somethin’.”
“Of course, Applejack, go ahead.”
Applejack’s eyes shifted to Rarity and back to the ground several times before she picked the floor. “Ah’ve…Ah’ve had some thoughts about…you. A couple of times, even just now when you were workin’ on the dress I felt weird when you were touchin’ me…”
“Applejack, I told you to tell me -!”
“Ah know, Ah know! Even though Ah could’ve, Ah didn’t! Ah liked it! And…”
Rarity hummed in contemplation, trying to figure out the best way to help her friend out. She hated seeing the usually steadfast and strong one of their group of friends in such a state, and wanted to help. An idea crossed her mind, she wasn’t sure if it was a good idea, but it certainly wasn’t bad either.
“Applejack, I have a proposal for you if you’re willing to listen?” Rarity asked.
She nodded.
“You say you’ve had some salacious thoughts of the two of us, correct?”
Applejack cringed, but nodded her yes.
“Then how about this, why don’t you spend the night here at my home, and we spend the night together.”
The emphasis she put on those three words were not lost on Applejack, evident by the growing heat in her cheeks and widening eyes.
“R-R-Rarity, do ya even know what you just asked me?!”
“Yes, I do, but I’m not pushing you into it. I’ll leave it up to you,” said Rarity.
Applejack’s mind raced, Rarity had just offered her to spend the night and have…sex…with her!
“Y-You can’t be alright with that, Ah mean, you like boys, too!”
Rarity’s cheeks blushed as she cleared her throat. “Since we’re sharing, I shall share, too. I have also wondered about such things between girls, and I have been wondering whom I could trust enough to explore such a side to myself? And it would seem that fate has offered us both a chance, because, Applejack, I don’t think there’s anyone else I’d trust with something as…intimate as this.”
Applejack’s heart was racing, her cheeks feeling unreasonably warm right now. Once again her eyes roamed over Rarity’s figure as she sat next to her, those smooth, alabaster legs, her elegant curves, and of course those piercing blue eyes, like sapphires. Was it really okay? Rarity just said it was, but then again, Applejack was still unsure. She didn’t want to make Rarity feel obligated to be an outlet, even though she says she also has those sort of thoughts as well.
Rarity could see the cogs turning in Applejack’s mind, even if the farmgirl wanted to say yes, her pride, stubbornness, and lack of confidence in this area would have her sitting there for hours before a decision was reached. So, Rarity decided to take the reins for once, for the girl who always seemed in control and exhumed a domineering presence, just this once, it was Rarity’s moment to be the immovable one.
The fashionista, in a rather daring move, sat up and faced Applejack, making the blonde girl look up at her. She then lifted her left leg and placed it on the bed next to Applejack’s thigh, knee first. Rarity did the same with her right leg until she was straddling Applejack, making her friend lean back a bit. Her arms slowly draped themselves over Applejack’s shoulders and came together in a loose hug.
If Applejack’s heart was racing before, it was practically jackhammering right now, and she was definitely sure her face was as bright red as one of her apples. She could feel Rarity’s weight on her lap, and didn’t help that she was still only wearing her shirt.
“R-R-R-Rarity, w-w-w-what are you doin’?” Applejack asked in confusion and mild shock.
“Applejack, you spend far too much time thinking and you’ll become rooted to this spot like one of your apple trees. I know you’re usually the one making the decisions, even the hard ones that some of us don’t wish to voice. But, for this one time, allow me to make the decisions for you.”
Rarity leaned forward slowly, not too fast, she didn’t want to scare AJ. With practiced poise, she placed her lips upon Applejack’s, closing her eyes and savoring the moment. It wasn’t a passionate kiss, merely a pressing of the lips. Applejack’s eyes were as wide as saucers, part of her said to pull away, that she shouldn’t be doing this, and yet, that curious part of her seemed to like this. The farmgirl slowly closed her eyes and allowed herself to do as Rarity said, to allow her make the decisions.
Feeling Applejack press back, Rarity continued pushing forward, prodding Applejacks lips with her tongue as if asking for permission to enter. With a slight reluctance, Applejack parted her lips and allowed Rarity to make their kiss more passionate. Applejack continued to lean back until her back was against the mattress, and Rarity’s body was pressed against hers. For a few seconds, the sounds of kissing and passionate moans were all that filled either girl’s ears.
Rarity slowly ended the kiss, retracting slowly until she was hovering over Applejack, watching the tanned girl’s chest rise and fall as if having her breath taken away. “I really must agree with Rainbow Dash, your freckles are cute.”
Applejack didn’t think she could turn any redder if she tried at this point. “That was…was…w-why did ya stop?”
Rarity reached into the pocket of her skirt and pulled out her cellphone. “Because you’ll need to call your brother and tell him you’ll be spending the night.”
