//------------------------------// // Derpy and Twilight Get it Together // Story: The 'Messy Work' Trilogy // by Prince Luna //------------------------------// Twilight Sparkle was waiting eagerly for her helper to arrive. The wooden floorboards of the library were all beginning to merge into one. The prospect of what was she was about to begin made her giddy with excitement. Twilight had been putting this off for far too long. She knew that she was going to enjoy it, but she simply couldn't find the time to do it. Tapping her hoof impatiently, Twilight Sparkle did a final check to see that everything was ready for her guests arrival. Twilight glanced to heaven thinking of all of the fun she was going to have. As Twilight quickly looked around the room to see if everything was ready, she heard a semi-confident knock at the door. She smiled and walked towards it and used her magic to open it. On the other side stood a young blonde haired grey pegasus, with one of her solid amber eyes looking directly at Twilight's face and the other looking at the soft green grass below her, still damp from the previous nights rainfall. "Derpy! You're finally here!" Twilight smiled, practically forgetting her composure for a moment. "Sorry if I kept you waiting," said Derpy feeling her voice wobble as the unicorns enthusiasm slightly scared her. Twilight shook her head camly, regaining control of her emotions and remembering that she should welcome a guest a little more gracefully. "No, no, it's alright. Although I do have to admit I was getting a little bored." "Well you couldn't really do this by yourself," Derpy laughed, flashing Twilight an inviting smile. "Actually I could, but it would be much more different than having somepony to do it with me," Twilight said as her face began to turn a delicate shade of crimson. Twilight stepped backwards to let Derpy in. The wall-eyed pegasus happily trotted through the door and kicked it closed with her back right hoof, a little too hard for Twilight's liking. She may not have been as house proud as Rarity, but she liked her home to be respected at the very least. "You know, I normally do this with Spike, but he's out tonight and besides," Twilight sighed, "he usually does it wrong. Most of the time it's not how I wanted." Bad memories of days gone by where Spike had assisted Twilight in accomplishing this seemingly so simple of tasks flashed through Twilights mind and she grimaced slightly. The number of times he had caused her physical damage by being too abrasive in such a delicate task as this one worried Twilight greatly. "I'll do whatever you ask me, Twilight," Derpy chirped with more than just a hint of excitement. Twilight giggled and slowly trotted up to her and whispered in her ear, "just follow my lead." The unicorn walked forwards with a slight sway of her hips, betraying how much she was looking forward to this, and bent over. Derpy followed obediently behind her and looked down. And sideways. Twilight handed Derpy a small hard object. Derpy had seen one of these before, but she had never actually held one. Twilight shut her eyes for a moment and nodded at the pegasus invitingly. Derpy blushed to the point where her normally sweet and smiling grey face was an embarrassing shade of pink. "Wh-where do you want it, Twilight?" Derpy asked more nervously than the unicorn had been anticipating. Twilight thought for a moment, considering how best to ease the pegasus into this. Looking around slowly, a flash of brilliance came to her and she smiled at her partner sweetly. "Just here," the unicorn stated, confident enough to make sure that Derpy knew what was expected of her, but gentle enough so as not to scare the poor pegasus away. Derpy followed the command and Twilight grunted slightly as it turned out it was a tighter fit than she had been expecting. It really had been to long since she had last done this. Wincing slightly as Derpy tried to force it in, Twilight let out a sigh of relief as the object slid perfectly into place. "That's good. I can tell we're gonna do this well." "Okay then, what about this? Is it good here?" Derpy asked, seemingly beginning to understand the necessary actions to be taken in this activity. Twilight, still marveling at how perfectly Derpy had performed previously, took a few seconds before she could articulate an answer. "Maybe move it to the left a little?" Derpy did as Twilight asked and the unicorn giggled with delight. She hadn't had this much fun in years. Twilight however was taken very much by surprise as she looked down to see Derpy trying to force one of the largest ones at her disposal into one of the tightest spots that Twilight had to offer. She grunted in audible agony as she felt the thing start to bend and she couldn't help crying out as Derpy tried once again with a new found conviction. "Not there, Derpy. That's no good," Twilight wheezed as Derpy finally relented and satisfied herself with trying to find a more suitable location.. "Oops. My bad," Derpy apologized letting her tongue dangle out of her mouth momentarily. Derpy constantly worked with her tongue sticking out of her head in concentration and after that little fiasco it was no surprise that it was tired.. The two tried some more times with Twilight instructing Derpy on how to best achieve what it was she wanted her to do. Derpy made a few mistakes which Twilight couldn't quite fix, but she didn't mind that too much. Derpy was doing a much better job than Spike would have. The dragon was usually too rough with his handling and didn't listen to what Twilight asked to do. Spike often just did things his own way regardless of what Twilight wanted or needed and Twilight usually did not appreciate it. Having Derpy there to help really brought peace to her mind as well as a pleasurable warm feeling throughout her body that had eluded her every time that Spike had paired up with her. "Uh, Twilight? What's this?" Derpy asked, staring both at the unicorn and the strange new object in her hooves. It looked nothing like any of the others, it was duller and rougher. It appeared that Twilight had used this one a lot to get what she needed. Derpy gazed in both directions in a confused stupor. Twilight panicked. This was not something that an innocent pony like Derpy should see. She cursed herself for not having locked it away far sooner. She would have to act fast before Derpy realised the significance of what it was she was currently holding. With speed that would rival that of Rainbow Dash, Twilight swiped it out of Derpy's grasp and rammed it in the nearest space she could find, letting out a slight whimper. "That's not something you wanna see, Derpy," she said quickly hoping that the topic of conversation would change soon. "It's okay, Twilight. I was looking at it and you, and honestly you're much more interesting," she said, half staring at Twilight's flank, quivering with visible fear. "Why do you say that, Derpy?" the unicorn asked with a far more coy tone than was normal for her. Derpy smiled with her eyes closed, "you know exactly what to do here! You must do this a lot!" Twilight blushed, ever so slightly embarrassed at what Derpy was suggesting about her. " I don't do it THAT often, only when I absolutely have to as a matter of urgency. Spike makes so much of a mess doing this that I can't help but ask him to do it again to try and fix it." "It's that bad?" "He's good, but he just won't listen." Twilight rolled her eyes before shaking her head. Spike really was clueless when it came to making her feel good. Derpy tried another move, independent of Twilights instructions. Twilight gasped with surprise before letting her eyes flit back into her head. Impressed, Twilight whistled, "nicely done." "I thought that'd be good there!" "Feels pretty good, too." Derpy decided to unleash the elephant in the room after some moments of awkward silence. This was fun, but it was better when she could hear Twilight. "Where exactly is Spike tonight, Twilight?" she asked, moving her hoof to Twilight's to help her finish with a particularly difficult position. "He's..." The door opened, interrupting Twilight. At the door was the purple dragon himself with a dreamy mist in his eyes, practically floating on the ecstasy that was emanating from his tiny body. He stumbled into the library and then suddenly realised what was going on. He shook himself, rubbed his eyes and widened them to stare at the two mares stood on their hind legs, both going gradually redder and redder with embarrassment. Clearly they had not meant for Spike to see this. He saw Derpy and Twilight both holding a book together infront of a neat bookshelf done much differently to how he left it earlier that evening. "SPIKE!" Twilight exclaimed, "this isn't what it looks like!" "What is it then?" the dragon asked in fury. He was furious with Twilight for having done this without him. She knew how much he enjoyed it and still she went ahead without him. In favour of Derpy? "...how was your date with Rarity?" Twilight asked to quickly avoid the subject. Spike put both of his reptilian hands out in front of him and shook his head to let Twilight know that they were not finished with this discussion. He was absolutely disgusted that Twilight would attempt something like this without him. Even worse was that she had enlisted the help of a MARE to help her. Spike knew that he was way better at it than any silly filly that tried to replace him. "I can't believe this Twilight. YOU REORGANISED THE BOOKCASE?!"
