It's a very sweet story. :)

Before I go any further, I should take a moment to give some context to my state of shock.

”*record scratch* you might be wondering how i got here” vibes

A Pegasus that I swear goes to the gym at least three times a day, a billion-bit smile, a face that is chiseled to perfection, hypnotizing hazel eyes, a sandy white mane that is currently pulled back, and a green coat that is like summer incarnate.

dang that is good-looking!

Being a blue unicorn with sapphire eyes and a white mane that makes me older than I really look, there’s not much to me. I don’t consider myself a looker, and while I’m not obese by any means, I don’t believe I was ever in shape for a day in my life. Just… bland really.

aww he’s just a lil meow meow!

“But that’s where my brain is short-circuiting.” I rubbed the side of my head. “I mean… you guys are already married, and you want to date… me?”

it does sound too good to be true, huh?

“Isn’t this… I don’t know… cheating with extra steps? You guys are married for crying out loud.”

no, it’s like the literal opposite of cheating! it’s extremely good!

“You see what I mean,” Lemon asked, his eyes closed to the edge of tears with a hoof over his mouth. “He’s just so wholesome.”

“Not to mention sensitive and caring.” Curtain agreed, his hooves together and having the goofiest smile I’ve ever seen. “I swear he’s like a living teddy bear.”

aww so true that is adorable

“The thing is, I know what I’m like. I’m an awkward guy who has interests that would easily put anyone to sleep. I’m self-aware that I’m hard to live with – that I make my meals and then put everything away hours after I’ve eaten; that I can’t handle unexpected, stressful situations to where I shut down; that I can’t raise a complaint to save my life; that due to my work schedule that I’d be lucky to get a shower more than once a week; that I wouldn’t clean my living space until months later; honestly, I don’t know if I would want to live with me either.

relatable

Then again… not that I’m complaining.

as you should not! 


between just how specific this situation is, and the use of OCs, i can’t help but wonder if part of this was taken from something from real life. either way, a very sweet story, thank you for writing!
