> The Perfect Rainbow > by Midnight Phoenix > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Late One Night... > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was a dark and cool night. The air was still. It was half past ten and the bar was silent. The smell of rum and heartache filled your nostrils as you looked around the messy room. There were drinks left over and some spilled onto the floor. But it was all usual. You were the only one who worked in the bar, and the only one who ever would. Ever since your dad had passed, Five years after your high school graduation, you had inherited his life's work. A place where you could come in and forget about the bad times, enjoy the good times, and possibly make memories that last. Everypony knew who he was, for he was known for his sincerity and compassion. He was like an uncle to everypony who had met him, one you could talk to if you needed to, and thats what made him and this bar so famous. And being his son, eveybody knew who you were too. The night was only getting later and you were beginning to close up shop. All the tables had been cleaned as well as the glasses, and you were about to go to home to your normal, daily life. It wasn't until you picked up the keys when you heard the door open, ringing the bell. In your mind you were getting ready to tell the customer that you were closed, but you were cut off by a female voice that asked, "Is this place still open?" You look up from the counter to the doorway and find a beautiful Pegasus mare standing before you. Her magenta eyes examining the rusty old bar then landing on yours. You made eye contact with her for a few seconds before she started walking towards you. Her rainbow mane gently moving back and forth as she sat on a barstool, inches away from your train-wrecked self. You still couldn't process your thoughts properly. Had an angel just walked into your bar, after seven years of constant daily routine? "Hello?" She asked confusedly. Her voice snapped you out of your daze. Quickly realizing your situation, you play it cool. "Uh, Sorry. What can I get you?" you ask, slightly embarrassed. "Um I was told this was the best place to forget about things?" She asked. After that it wasn't hard to see why she was here. Somepony, some incredibly stupid pony, made the mistake of not realizing how lucky they were to have a beautiful mare like her. But hey, that only meant good news for you, right? "Sure." You say, "What would you like? Something strong or-" "Yes, please!" She cut you off, as she leaned her head on the recently cleaned counter. You open the cupboards behind you revealing a large wall of alcohol, enough to get all of Ponyville hungover. You grab the first bottle you see, direct from the Crystal Kingdom Empire, strongest when its first opened and made with real crystals. You crack open the bottle and inhale as the sweet smell intoxicates you. The smell of crystals and berries grinded into perfection. You pour a glass for the beautiful Pegasus, and one for yourself. After all, why let only her enjoy a perfectly good bottle? She takes the first sip, you watch as the light pink passes through her silky smooth lips. She finishes the glass and sets it down with a sigh. Curiosity is killing you to find out what kind of fool led this angel to your doorstep. You have no choice but to ask. "So, do you, uh... Wanna talk about it?" You ask. "I'm not so sure." She replied, looking at the empty glass. You refill her glass and begin to drink yours. The room is filled with silence and alcohol fumes. You take the first drink of alcohol. As you do, she begins to open up, and tells you about what happened. "It's stupid, isn't it?" She asks. "What is?" You reply finishing your glass and setting it down "Lies." She says. "How other ponies can just lie and use you, without feeling an ounce of guilt or remorse." She lifts her head away from the glass and looks to you. "Have you ever been in a relationship?" "Uh..." The sudden question catches you off guard. "No, actually. I guess its because nopony's ever stood out to me... Or me to them." You say turning away from the counter to clean your glass. She sighs while nodding her head. "When we first met, it was... Magical. He was strong, funny, and sweet. He made me feel complete. And..." She paused, blushing lightly, "He was my first time. The passion, the romance, it was there, wasn't it?" She began tearing up, but tried to hold it back. Her breathing started getting scattered, and you could tell she had a knot in her throat. You fill her glass once more, and used a cloth to wipe a tear off her cheek. She looked at you and smiled lightly. "What was his name?" You ask leaning against the counter. "Soarin." She said looking looking back at her drink. "When we met, it was like a dream almost. He stood out above the rest of the other stallions." You put down the cloth, walked around the counter, and sat down right next to her, comforting her. Your left hoof was on hers, your right on her shoulder. She continues, this time with tears running down her face. "T-Tonight, I went over to his house, hoping that maybe we could spend time t-together," She's actually crying now, her breathing out of control. "I went u-up to his r-room and..." She breaks down into tears. She leans her sobbing head into your chest. You hold her tight in your hooves, massaging her back as her tears wet your bartender clothing. She looks up at you, her eyes red and watery, "I-I loved him..." "Shh, it's not your fault." You said, "He's too foolish to realize how beautiful and amazing you are." Her crying began to stop. She regained control of her breathing and got up from your chest. "I am?" She asked, inhaling through her runny nose. You begin to smile lightly at her, her modesty and innocence reminding you of a young filly. "Are you kidding? I've heard about your Sonic Rainboom, how you've saved your friends multiple times." You said. "Don't let one pony distract you from all that, he's foolish, and sooner or later you'll be glad you don't have anyone to hold you back." She sniffled and took one final breath before wiping the remaining tears off her face. She leaned back off your lap. Her magenta eyes started to turn back their normal color. Your bartender top was not completely soaked, but it didn't matter to you. As long as you made her feel better, you couldn't care more about anything else. She looked at you while a smile. "Thanks." She said. "I guess all I needed was a shoulder and an ear." "No problem." You say with a smile of your own. She locked eye contact with you, looking at you semi-seductively. You stared back at her in the silent room. You could tell where this was headed. Your face blushing lightly as you let out a nervous chuckle. Your head started moving closer to hers. She closed her eyes and began to lean in as well. Your heads moving closer and closer like some kind of magnetic force was pulling you both. You slowly closed your eyes as your lips made contact, and took your first kiss with the most beautiful pony you had ever met. You could feel her tongue demanding entry, pressing against your lips. You let her in and she immediately started to play with yours. Your hooves wrapped around her, holding her close. Your heart racing faster than it ever has before. The passion you felt between you and her felt unreal. You hear her moan silently. Her hoof starting to reach down between the both of you. You blush more as you feel your shaft start to make its' presence. In your mind you panic, but your body doesn't care. It unexpectedly rises between the both of you, causing you to break up the kiss and both blush. You were speechless and embarrassed. You feared what Rainbow would think. To your surprise, she giggled and began stroking it. The embarrassment soon turned to pleasure as her soft hooves went up and down your shaft. You lean your head back. You cant believe that you're actually getting a hoofjob from the Rainbow Dash. You look back at Rainbow with a blushing smile. She winks at you and then leans her head down and starts kissing the tip of your shaft. You let out a moan, her tongue circling your tip, licking the precum that had started to leak out. You couldn't handle much more of this. Sooner or later you were going to blow. She then put her whole mouth around your already wet shaft and started to suck it. She moved her head back and forth, her hooves playing with your nuts. It was the best feeling you had ever felt. She began to swallow more and more of your hard cock, to the point where you where now being deep-throated by Rainbow Dash. Her moaning arousing you more, her tongue circling your shaft. You had hit your limit, you couldn't hold it anymore. You let out a groan as you started to let out a flow of cum, and right into Rainbow's throat. She took your cock out of her mouth and began swallowing your cum, licking the tip of your shaft like a popsicle. You moan in pleasure as she licks the underside of your cock, and giving it one last kiss before she leans back and kisses you one more time. Her mouth and lower face covered in your liquid. She leans closer towards you, both of your mouths reunited again. Your tongues playing again, this time with a salty taste in her mouth. You could feel the romance in the air. The passion between you both causing your heartbeat to race with anxiety. The kiss went on for a few more seconds before suddenly ending. Rainbow broke the kiss, slowly pulling away. This sudden action leaves you to question, "What's wrong?" She looks at you, then towards the ground. "I shouldn't be doing this." She said. "Its wrong." She looks to find you with a confused look. "Not saying that you're a bad pony or anything... if anything, you were probably the only pony who actually listened to my problems." She blushed and rubbed her shoulder. "You definitely kissed better than he did." A light smile comes across your face. She wipes the remaining liquid off her muzzle and begins to get up. You do the same and proceed behind the counter. "Well, I guess I have to clean up anyway." You tell her as you start wiping off glasses. She starts walking to the exit, hoof on the door, then she turns around to you and says, "Hey, maybe I'll see you around?" You smile widely as you reply, "Yeah, that sounds nice." She winked and walked out the door. You look at the half empty bottle of alcohol as thoughts flood your mind. You let out a breath of excitement as you try to comprehend what just happened. You put away the bottle and glasses, but a few minutes later, a muscular stallion burst through the door. He had a blue mane with a distinctive cutie mark, and you had a hunch of who it was. "Hey..." He says breathing heavily, "has a light blue pegasus with a rainbow mane come through? I'm looking for her." Sure enough it was the fool who cheated on her. You look back at him with firm eyes, "Why are you looking for her?" You ask back. He takes a deep exhale before looking around the room, then back at you. "I need to find her, and tell her I made a mistake. A mistake that was unintentional, a regretful. She needs to know what happened, and she nneds to hear my apology." You can tell by the look on his face that he's serious, but you can't believe anything he says. A real lover would never do something like that, but then again, what if he really means it? What if hes actually really sorry, what if hes not? And most importantly, what would Rainbow Dash want? "So, have you seen her?" He asks impatiently. You look at him with straight eyes. "No." You tell him. "No I haven't." He nods his head and walks back out the bar. As he leaves you can't tell if what you did was selfish or not, but all you know is that this night will definitely be a memory that will forever last in this bar, and perhaps, maybe even one of many.
