CHAPTER 31
I sat on the park bench with Dashie, chatting about what we should do next. This was our first real date. It felt really awkward at first, but we had started to open up to the idea. I was still looking behind me every once in a while to make sure Zephyr wasn't there, ready to murder me.
"Maybe we could go shopping..." I suggested as I felt the weight of my coin purse. I hadn't spent much money lately.
"Nah, that's too generic. I wanna do something exciting for our first date." She grinned at that last part.
"Hmmm... How about we have a race?"
She smiled ear to ear when I said that. "Sounds like a great idea to me."
We flew up into the air, and lined up. It wouldn't follow a path, just us trying to stay ahead of the other.
"Three..."
I've never been in, or to, a race before. Just the countdown is exciting.
"Two..."
Here we go...
"One..."
This is gonna be sweet.
"GO!"
And like that, we were off. I was managing to keep up, but there was no way I was going to pull ahead. Dashie looked at me with a wild look on her face, and she began to go even faster.
"Come on, ... FLY!" I began to wonder if the enchantment was wearing off.
But the moment I wondered that, I began to speed up gradually. Man I love these .
"Woah!" I pulled up next to Dashie, but I was still unable to pass her.
"Glad to see there's someone who can keep up with me."
"Well, I wasn't ever one to stay still." I looked ahead of me and saw a wall.
"WOAH!" WHAM.
I got up from the ground, my vision still blurry from having slammed head-first into the side of a building. I hadn't noticed that we had flown so close to the ground.
"Ugh..." I rubbed my head. That's gonna hurt in the morning.
Dash was laughing uncontrollably.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So... What else do you want to do?" I asked.
"Well..." Dashie couldn't think of anything either.
Then I saw something I wasn't expecting. I saw a streak of pink zooming straight at me.
Pinkie tackled me to the ground, and was talking REALLY fast.
"OHMYGOSHYOUANDDASHIEAREDATINGTHAT'SSOCUTEWHYDIDN'TYOUTELLME-"
I shoved her off. "Calm yourself down! Sheesh..." I dusted off my jacket.
"Why didn't you tell anypony?"
"Well, Pinkie... I just didn't really know how you all would have reacted."
"Well, y'all don't need t' worry no more sugarcube." AJ?
I turned around and saw all of our friends gathered there. Apparently, Pinkie wasn't one to keep a secret.
"So... You weren't after Fluttershy, you were after Rainbow Dash... Interesting..." Twilight was treating this like a study session.
"Oh... My..." Shy was being as... Well... Shy as always.
"Oh, you two make such a cute couple! This will make for some juicy gossip..." Rarity, if you even think about it...
"Oh... Hi there everypony..." Dashie was a deep shade of red. She was obviously as embarrassed as I was.
"Listen... Don't go telling anypony, alright? I don't want Dashie to be ridiculed for dating... Well... A member of another species." Concern filled my tone.
Everypony nodded, and they walked away without saying another word.
"Alright... That was... Awkward..."
"Yeah... Well, seeya Kyle. I'm going home. I had fun today." She flew off.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I laid on my bed, thinking about what had happened that day. I was glad to finally have a relationship, but I still felt a little... Off about it.
"Would this qualify as bestiality...?" I thought of what that would be like, and pushed the image out of my head as soon as it came. Gross...
"Ok... Just need to sleep on this..."
I made sure to wait, my paranoia making me believe that somepony would knock on my door, as they seem to always do. But after ten minutes and no knocking, I went to sleep.
I felt a rushing sensation, and I awoke in a familiar starry-floored area.
"Hey, Luna."
"Good evening, Kyle." At least I had somepony to talk to.
"Hey... Can you give me some advice?"
"Certainly, it is what friends do."
"Well... As you can see, I'm a human, and me and a certain mare have started going out... But it just feels wrong..."
"Why would you say that?"
"Well, on Earth, it's frowned upon to have 'relations' with animals..."
"Well, you are not on Earth, Kyle. You are here, in Equestria. I do not see an issue with having romantic relationships with the inhabitants of this world. You really don't have any other choices."
"That's what I was thinking, but I just wasn't sure..."
"Well, as your friend, I give you my full support. Good luck to you, Kyle."
I smiled. "Thanks, Luna."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I woke up, I felt much more confident then I had before.
"Today's gonna be a great day, I can tell." I felt much more positive, too.
I no longer cared what anypony thought, or what anypony said. As long as I was with Dashie.
But then it hit me.
"What about her ego?"
Dashie always had a swelled head, and if she were ridiculed for dating some creature, I didn't know what would happen. Would she brush it off? Or would it be like a pin in the balloon that is her self-esteem? She had told me about the bullying that went on in flight-school when she was a filly.
"Why can't anything just work out for once?"
I'll never catch a break, will I?
You won't.
I had a feeling that Kyle would be ponified
Awesome story so far!
61820
Hm? I don't want to be ponified. It would feel like this is a Conversion Bureau story.
61824
I agree fully.
Ennnnnnope
now the wait for the next chapter begins...
Very awesome story.
MUST....NOT...MAKE....SCENE....
I doubt it
every chapter a problem is solved and less than a second later theres a NEW problem... damn thats gotta be irritating. Anyways good chapter.
God-damn, why must you make me think of dirty mental images...
Hey, everybody knows of Spike's crush on Rarity, and they don't make a huge scene about it. I don't think it's that big a problem, Kyle.
61886

62057
Trololol-trollolololll-ololoo!
As many as possible!
I slowly build up my reputation!
62057
Oh, almost forgot:
Follow the Haylo: Bootcamp, you will see, hm, familiar names.
...
I have to send a message to MarineMarksman...
Stop right there criminal scum!, pay the court a fine or serve your sentence, Your man-beast actions are now forfeit!
62081
It's not like I'm having sex with Dashie... If I do, Zeph will murder me with a rolling pin. And AGAIN, what other options other than ponies do I HAVE?
of course nothing can go right, the story of your life becomes less entertaining if you do that
62085
bowling pins are way better murder weapons than rolling pins
FYI
62085 Well... (female) there arew dragons, manticores and bl-wait WHAT WAS I GOING TO SAY!?
Romantic relationships out of your speicies = not akward, doing " stuff " with other said species is.
k12314, can u do a story that insted of kyle going in ponyvill that the pony gang go to earth
LOTS AND LOTS OF TRAINS!LOTS AND LOTS OF JETS AND PLANES!
61824
Oh hells no!
That.. would be creeepier than ever.
By definition, bestiality is sexual relations between a sentient and non-sentient being.
Dash is sentient, therefore this is not bestiality. It's inter-species-coitus. There's nothing wrong with that at all. It just doesn't happen often because humans and dolphins are the only sentient beings on earth at the moment.
62085 As long as you don't rape her or anything there isn't a problem. But then even if you did, I wouldn't have a problem with that seeing as I'm not much of a Dash fan.
Applejack for the win!!
"I thought of what that would be like, and pushed the image out of my head as soon as it came." Anyone else have their mind in the gutter right now? Cause this put my mind about, 6 feet into the gutter...
You know,
I feel lonely without Zephyr here

You may have lost Dash to your best bud...
But now you're a Wonderbolt...
Now there's Spitfire...
78916 i can't figure what you were going to say.... WHAT WERE YOU GOING TO SAY! i have been trying to figure it in the last 15 minutes. please its driving me crazy!
I think you need to work on your pacing a little.
62085 you could do a minotar, a dragon, a D dog, a changeling, those ghost horse things, Sombra and a lot of other things
266902 It's actually sapient in the case of Humans and i think by some standards,Dolphins too. (Just felt like pointing that out)
"Why can't I catch a break?" Not a good mentality Kyle.
