The life and times of Applejack and Rainbow Blitz in the years after they become an official couple.
A year has passed since Rainbow Blitz and Applejack became an official couple, and as the years pass, the adventure of life goes on for the two, as they deal with events such as having to be away from one another for a time, meeting various members of their partner’s family, and other things. Will their relationship fall apart or will it grow into something else?
Part Four of the Suspenders-verse, and a three-way collaboration between myself, Anon e Mouse Jr. and Tangent.
Applejack let out a content sigh as she worked in her orchard, wiping the sweat from her forehead after all the early morning harvesting she had been doing. It was hard work but she didn’t mind it all that much. She had been doing it for the most of her life, it was work she was good at - it was part of what her cutie mark told her what her special talent was, after all - and-
“There you are,” a voice from above caused her to look upwards, and she smiled as she stepped backwards so Rainbow Blitz, her coltfriend, could land with a takeout bag from Sugarcube Corner. “Was flying all over your farm to find you.”
“So what, instead of five seconds, it took you ten?” she joked with him, walking over to him to get her breakfast.
Blitz snorted at her, giving her a pastry and a cup of coffee, before taking another pastry and his own cup of coffee from the bag. “I may be fast but I’m not that fast when carrying food AJ,” he said he leaned against a tree, sliding down to the ground with Applejack joining him.
“Still the best fast food Ah ever ate,” she said elbowing him with Blitz giving her a squawk as he held his cup away from himself. “Thank ya kindly,” she told him.
“No problem,” he told her. “So, what did you have planned for the day?”
“Not much more work,” she told him. “Low season and all, though Ah got to get ready for the near end of the year harvest soon. But before that Ah got to prepare for the annual family get-together in about five months or so at a distant family’s farm.” She let out a sigh, rolling her head backwards before resting her head against Blitz’s shoulder. “Ah’ll be honest when Ah say that Ah’m not looking for all that travel for all that time for just a week.”
“Well, if you want, I can help you with the farm and stuff once I get back,” Blitz offered.
“Ah appreciate that pardner,” she told him, giving him a peck on the cheek. “Be nice to have some help on the farm as well introduce you to the rest of mah family and what do you mean when you get back?”
“Derpy just delivered a letter saying that Fleetfoot had got into some accident and they want me to replace her for the Canterlot, Cloudsdale, Manehatten and Los Pegasus circuit of their annual tour,” Blitz told her with a grin quickly appearing on his face.
“Well congrats, Blitz,” she said as she carefully hugged him, holding her coffee and pastry awkwardly. “That’s gotta be a big dream of yours even closer to being done.”
“Yeah, it is,” he said as he placed his coffee down so he could reach into his back pocket and pull out an envelope. “Here, a ticket and a backstage pass so you can join the afterparty at Canterlot.”
“Just Canterlot?” she asked him, tilting her head at him.
“Yeah, sorry about that,” Blitz apologized. “Fleetfoot had some others, but she’d given out all but this one before she had her accident. And so did all of the other ’Bolts, otherwise I’d see if I could snag some from one of them.”
“That plum sucks,” she pouted before she looked up at him. “So when are ya needed?”
“A couple of days or so,” he said. “About two days to get me up to speed to what I need to do and then a few more so we can practice before the big show.”
“Darn, so our time alone can’t go beyond this,” she said as gave him another peck on the cheek which made the pegasus squirm with delight before he pouted.
“Yah,” he said as he stretched out his legs. “I’m kinda glad you said that and not me. Didn’t want you to think I was trying to guilt you or anything into some love making.”
“Sucks pardner, Ah know that it’s bad luck to do that before a big show,” she told him before shaking her head. “Ah suppose Ah’ll could go tell Granny that she can come home now that we don’t need it.”
“Then again, we could be responsible adults and not do anything but be with each other,” Rainbow Blitz suggested with Applejack turning her head at him.
“Who’re you and what have you done with Rainbow Blitz?” she chuckled at him with Blitz pushing at her.
“Do I need to tickle you to prove I’m me?” he said with a grin with his hands out open to her sides.
“Don’t you dare pardner,” she told him, holding her finger out to him. “And Ah’m kidding, ya know that. Mighty nice to just have ya around.”
“Yeah, it’s still pretty cool that Granny let us do this.” Blitz said with Applejack remembering that little powwow all that while back.
It had been late, far later in the night than they usually parted ways but Applejack felt daring tonight.
“AJ, if your Granny catches us,” Blitz said as he tried to get up again but Applejack just leaned against him, running her fingers along his sides.
“She’ll tan our hides, Ah know,” she said as she rubbed her head against his shoulder. “But Ah’m too comfy ta move right now.” She let out a yawn, truly tired but not tired enough not to run her fingers along his butt over his boxers and give him a pinch. Blitz almost let out a yelp but managed to restrain himself.
Blitz gave her a dirty look before shaking his head. “I promise I’ll be out of here soon, AJ,” he said as he looked around for his pants. “Just going to close my eyes for a moment.”
“Ya do that,” Applejack said with another yawn. “Ah’m doin’ the same.”
Applejack closed her eyes for a moment and then the next thing she knew, Apple Buck was opening her door and saying “SIS, BLITZ, Granny says breakfast is ready and she wants to talk to you two!” Then her little brother slammed her door shut with Applejack’s eyes widening as she realized what had just happened.
Looking to her side, she saw Blitz give her an equally scared look. “Welp,” she said as she pushed the blanket off of them and getting to her hooves. “It was mighty nice knowin’ you,.” she told him as she walked over to her dresser and pulled out a pair of pants to put on.
“Maybe it won’t be that bad?” Blitz said with a chuckle as he pulled his pants up, only to get a flat look from Applejack. “What, I could be right.”
Applejack grabbed her hat and smacked him, with Blitz pulling back. “Get yer shirt on and come on downstairs with me. This is goin’ ta be tough and Ah ain’t doing it alone, Sugarcube.”
“Yessem,” he said as he pulled his shirt on and stood next to Applejack. With a sigh from the both of them, they left the bedroom and made their way downstairs where they caught Apple Buck running out the door with Granny and Big Mac sitting at the table with all but two chairs pulled away, leaving Blitz and Applejack forced to face her elderly green grandmother.
“Sit you two, we need to have a talk,” she said sternly. Gulping, they made their way to their chairs. “First thing first, two questions,” she looked at them, her eyes lingering on Blitz. “Are you two using protection?”
“Granny,” Applejack blushed with Blitz turning red in the face as well. Before she could say anything else, she felt Blitz squeeze her hand and felt her confidence grow. “Ah mean, yes Granny, we do.”
“Second question. Do you talk after you two’ve had sex?”
“Love making,” they both said instantly, causing Granny to raise an eyebrow.
“Sorry, that’s what we call it.” Appljeack said, scratching the back of her head. “It just makes it more personal and meanin’ful for us.”
Granny just raised an eyebrow at this with a smirk on her face. “Ah think that answers that question.”
“So we’re good?” Blitz asked hopefully, only for Granny to shake her head.
“Not yet; we’re goin’ to move onto some grounds rules,” she said. “First off, you start slackin’ in yer work because of him, ’Jackie, it’s over.” She held up a hand to quiet her. “Second, if he starts slackin’ off in his works because of you, Ah’ll write up to Cloudsdale for a new weather pony.”
Applejack looked at Blitz and the both of them nodded their head at this.
“Good,” she said. “Third, if yer going to be spendin’ the nights here, Blitz, Ah would like it if you slept in the guest room fer now.” Blitz began to open his mouth, only for Granny to cut him off. “Ah know yer two young ponies and Ah feel Ah can trust you be in the room with my Jackie but Ah need to get comfortable with the notion, okay?”
“Seems fair,” Blitz said, nodding his head.
“And if yer going to be here, Ah expect you do help out around the house; ain’t no freeloaders here,” her granny continued. “Ah don’t expect you to go out in the field or nothin’ but takin’ yer turn at the dishes an’ cookin’.”
“Ah’ve been trainin’ him how to cook an’ such, but Ah think he can handle it,” Applejack said with Blitz scowling at her.
“Now onto somethin’ Ah suspect will be a bit more to yer liking,” Granny said, tapping the table. “Ah don’t want you two to ‘make love’ while Apple Buck is home, since Ah’d have to explain the birds and bees to him, an’ it ain’t fair to make Macy here to listen to you go at it while he’s home either. It ain’t fair to make you guys go mess around in the barn and such while we got a nice house here. So, once a month Ah’ll send Apple Buck off to his friends for a couple of days, Mac here will be with some of his guy friends and Ah’ll be playin’ bridge over at Summer Dawn’s place and let you two have the house alone for a couple of days.”
“That sounds go-”
“A couple of days every second week,” Blitz said, with a strange, determined look on his face.
“Blitz, what the hay are yo-” Applejack turned to lecture her coltfriend.
“Ah said once a month, Blitz,” Granny stated with a similar look on her face.
“How about every three weeks,” he bargained, leaning across the table.
“Any way to make the offer better?” Granny said with a raised eyebrow.
“Yes, once every month or so and I get to move my Cloudominium over some unused part of your farm,” Blitz said with a look of victory on his face.
Granny just hook her head at him.”Ya ain’t no good at negotiatin’, Blitz, almost as bad as Jackie here.”
“Hey!”
“Startin’ off, once a month you’ll get the house alone, an’ you can move yer fancy sky house over one of the storage barns,” she said. “And that is the final offer beyond nothin’.”
“Sounds fine to me,” Blitz said with a smirk on his face. “Anything else?”
“You break mah Jackie’s heart, Mac here breaks you,” Granny said sharply with Mac just narrowing his eyes menacingly. “And if you go do somethin’ silly Jackie, like cheat on him or something and break his heart, ya ain’t no granddaughter of mine.”
“Understood,” they both said without any hesitation.
“Good,” Granny said as she stood up. “Breakfast is just about ready an’ both of ya are grounded; Jakie for having a colt over without mah permission and Blitz, Ah don’t know what it is but Ah’m sure ya’ve done somethin’ wrong in town.”
Blitz actually tilted his head from the side and nodded sheepishly. “Yah, that’s true,” he said scratching the back of his head. “I’m not sure if Rar-”
There was a high pitch screech that interrupted him with Applejack giving a shake of her head before getting up and giving Blitz a shove. “Come, grubs ready and ya’ve got ta apologize to Rarity for whatever ya did.”
“Ah can’t believe it’s been almost a year since we’ve been dating,” Applejack as she leaned against Blitz some more. “An’ before ya ask, we can celebrate our anniversary after ya get back.”
“Thanks AJ,” Blitz with a loud sigh of relief. “I was worried about that, to be honest, that you would be pissed at me for missing our first anniversary if I was out on tour.”
“Blitz, Ah know that this has been a big dream of yers fer a long time and it would be plain wrong of me to ask ya to do otherwise.”
Blitz shook his head and hugged her close. “Tell me, what did I do deserve somepony like you?”
“Ah could ask ya the same thing, pardner,” Applejack replied before she finished her pastry before slapping his leg. “C’mon, let’s get these apples to the barn so we can be done quick today.”
“Sure thing, Applejack.” Blitz smiled as he picked up one of the baskets and walked with her to the barn.
“Sit you two, we need to have a talk,” Granny Smith said sternly. Gulping, they made their way to their chairs.
“First things first,” she told them when they’d sat down. “Ah don’t mind ya gettin’ together… but could ya not do it when the rest of the family’s goin’ to be around?”
Blitz’s jaws dropped, then he straightened himself out and threw her his best salute. “Ma’am, yes Ma’am!”
“Then we’re good.” Granny stood back with a smile on her face.
“So… yer not mad?” Applejack asked hesitantly.
“Sakes alive, you think Ah’m mad over this?” Granny waved her hands. “It’s obvious he’s crazy over ya and ya both plan to make this last. Now, Ah’m no fool, an’ Ah know Blitz here ain’t yer first rodeo, but at least yer nothin’ lahk Apple Brandy back in Rainbow Falls. If’n you’d been sleepin’ around as much as she did, then Ah’d be mad!”
“Um…” Applejack looked at her uncertainly. “What do you mean, Granny?”
“She had fifty-six boyfriends in one year!” Granny shook her head. “The Grand Poobah of Slutdom, we called her!”
Two sets of jaws dropped, and there was just silence for a moment. Then, Applejack shook her head. “Fif… fifty-six‽”
“That’s right!” Granny shook her head. “Granted, she didn’t do the kind of sleepin’ you two’re doin’ before she got married, but boy did she get around in other ways!”
Applejack stared at Blitz, then shook her head. “...”
“An’ you should’ve heard two of our other friends when they found out how much that girl was gettin’ back in the day!” Granny threw back her head and laughed. “Ah can still hear one of them claimin’ it wasn’t possible, that nopony could’ve had more stallions than her! An’ then our other friend says… what was it? Oh yeah! The slut is dead, long live the slut!”
Applejack looked aghast at her grandmother’s words, and Blitz just shook his head. “You’ve got some interesting friends, Granny Smith.”
Granny gave him a big grin. “An’ don’t you ferget it!” Then she tilted her head. “Doggone it, now Ah’ve got me a hankerin’ for some cheesecake lahk we used to get back in the day…”
“I’ll go to Sugarcube Corner and get one for you!” Blitz volunteered.
“Thankin’ ya kindly, Blitz.” Granny smiled as he ducked out the door.
Applejack just shook her head with a smile of her own as she watched her coltfriend fly off. “That’s mah Blitz,” she said.
“Yer darn tootin’,” Granny replied. “Now, you hold onto that colt, Jackie. Ya’ve got yerself a fine young stallion there.”
Blitz did his best not to grunt as he picked up his basket of apples, stilling his wings as he walked behind Applejack as not to show how much this was straining him. Of course, Applejack had no trouble with this, lifting two equally hefty baskets of apples with ease. It didn’t bother him as it might once have had as it just showed how strong she was, which always thrilled him.
“Ya okay back there?” Applejack asked him, turning her head to face him.
“More or less,” he said honestly. Most of his negative bragging nature had gone away as a result of his spending time with Applejack and her family, which he had to admit made some things easier in his day to day life. “A bit heavy but the view is good,” he chuckled, causing Applejack to shake her head at him with a smirk on her face.
“Pervert,” she joked at him, flicking her tail back and forth. “Now come on, Ah’ve got work ta do.”
“Yessem,” he said, following her dutifully into the storage barn, looking at the other that had his house above it briefly before following her inside and walking over to the storage area. Placing it down besides Applejack’s baskets, he turned his head towards her and asked, “How many more basket do we need to get, AJ?”
“Not many,” she said as she began to properly stocked and catalogued the food. “Granny does want us to enjoy ourselves and not make it just flat out work for us on our alone days, Blitz.” She let out a sigh as she looked at him. “Sucks that you’ve got to go…”
“At noon,” he replied.
“At noon,” she repeated. “‘Cause Ah been thinking of a few new things for us to do alone. Some new knots and such, as Ah know how you like that. But we can’t do none of our favourite things.”
Blitz blushed, knowing exactly what she meant. and it got him squirming just thinking about the last time they had made love. Just like being spanked, being tied up was a kink that they had discovered he had, just like how Applejack loved to have Blitz play with her breasts like she was a cow that needed to be milked, or her tendency to go naked whenever she could in front of him. After the time he’d heard about Cadance’s own habit of doing so around Dusk, he’d occasionally wondered if Applejack had known about it earlier and picked the habit up as a result, but he certainly wasn’t going to complain about it and just about the splinters he got from when he-.
“Wait, I’ve got something we can do,” he said, causing her to raise an eyebrow. “So we can do the work and have some fun.”
“An’ what’s that, Sugarcube?” she asked him with a grin that matched his, no doubt catching what he was thinking.
“How about we finish your work the way you love to do so?” he asked her as he reached for his shirt. Applejack’s eyes went wide as she heard his plan and saw what he was doing.
“Ah like the way you think, Sugarcube,” she said as she placed her hat on his head before she shucked her clothes in quick manner with Blitz hopping to remove his pants but his wagging tail kept getting in the way.
“Gosh darnit, let me help ya,” Applejack said from behind him before she grabbed his tail. “Ya excited, aren’t ya?”
“Can you blame me?” he said as he slid his pants and boxers off, turning to see she was already naked, folded her clothes and put them to the side.
“Eeenoope,” she told him with a wink as she waited for him to fold his clothes and put them next to hers before she reclaimed her hat and picked up a couple of empty basket. “Ya comin’, Blitz?”
“Eeyup,” he said, glancing to make sure his watch was on tight before following her out of the barn.
After they had finished the work; well Applejack finished collecting the apples as Blitz flying up to get them wasn’t the same and Applejack didn’t need to be distracted by seeing his package while bucking trees lest she turn a leg and injure herself like that, and got dressed the two of them had made a quick light lunch for Blitz, before he had to head out to the train station to catch his ride.
Applejack watched him dart into his house before bringing down his duffle bag and Tank’s terrarium, with AJ moving to place the tortoise in her room before she joined him downstairs. Holding out her arm, Applejack felt a rush across her entire body when Blitz linked arms with her and the two of them walked out of the farm and down into the town, talking about his upcoming show and what he had to do since he was replacing Fleetfoot and had to train with Blaze to get in sync with her before the tour started.
Standing in front of the train, Applejack looked at her coltfriend and sighed internally at the fact he was going off. Outwardly, she smiled, gave him a kiss goodbye and watched him wave her goodbye, with her doing the same before he vanished out of sight. She stood on the platform for a bit before she kicked the floor, spun around and began to make her way back home.
She would have made her way back onto her farm if not for Rarity appearing from nowhere and latching onto her arm.
“So darling,” she said with eager eyes that told Applejack she was in for some personal digging again. “Do you have any idea what your coltfriend is planning to get you in Canterlot for your anniversary? It must be big if he’s leaving now…”
“He ain’t getting me nothin’,” she said with a frown before pausing. “Ah mean, Ah don’t know if he is goin’ to get me somethin on the side but he ain’t going there for me, he’s got a show to do and he’s going to be on tour for a bit.”
“During your first anniversary?” Rarity asked with an incredulous tone. “That scan-”
“Now listen up, Sugarcube,” Applejack interrupted her friend. “Ah’ll tell you what Ah told Blitz before; he had his eyes set on being a Bolt longer than he has been with me and Ah ain’t goin’ to step in the way of his dreams.” Applejack then softened her face. “Besides, we promised to do somethin’ after he gets back; maybe a rodeo or somethin’.”
“A rodeo?” Rarity said with such distaste that Applejack started to give her a dirty look, but Rarity quickly shook her head. “I’m sorry, that was incredibly rude of me. I know that love is different for everypony and how they celebrate it is to be different. Although…” She gave Applejack a coy look. “I don’t suppose ‘rodeo’ is your private code for a little… fun time?”
“It ain’t an’ you know it,” Applejack told her. “Ah mean it; we might go to the rodeo or the carny or somethin’. Ah just want somethin’ for us to do together, Ah guess. Ah don’t know, just that me and Blitz are together.”
“As long as you two are together, I suppose anything can be romantic…” Rarity mused to herself.
“Ah just have to get it through Buck’s head that he ain’t to tag along with me and Blitz if we do go,” Applejack snorted with Rarity tsking.
“He still hasn’t put together you two are dating?”
“Oh he knows we’re dating; he just don’t know what that means at times,” Applejack kicked a stone down the road. “More than once, Granny had to shoo him away when Blitz and Ah are supposed to have the house to ourselves.”
“I will try to get Silver Bell to invite him and Scooteroll over more often, darling,” Rarity promised her, flashing Applejack a smile. “Just tell me when you want him out of the house and I’ll have him over in a flash.”
“Thanks Rares, that’d be mighty awesome,” Applejack grinned before she frowned. “It’d be even more awesome if somepony gave him the talk.”
“Sorry darling, but I already gave Silver Bell the talk and once was enough, thank you very much,” Rarity shuddered with Applejack both surprised that Rarity did that and annoyed that she had found another pony that refused to take her responsibility to give Buck the Talk. Damn her family and Blitz for saying not it faster than her…
“It’s okay, Rarity,” she said, patting her on the back. “Ah guess Ah’ll do it…”
“Or, if you wish to scare him away from sex, just ask Dusk to do it,” Rarity gave her a wink that made Applejack stop and think. If there was one pony that could make sex seem dull and a waste of time, it would be Dusk Shine. “Ah’ll think about it,” she said with a laugh.
Rainbow Blitz dropped his duffle bag beside his seat as he leaned back into his chair after waving goodbye to Applejack, sighing as he rubbed his face.
Despite Applejack saying she was fine with him being away for their first anniversary and the fact that he knew she wasn’t lying to him, Blitz felt terrible about being away.
As much as he hated to, Blitz knew that he would need to push AJ out of his head soon so he could focus on the show and mentally prepare himself to get ready for all the tricks he would need to do with Blaze.
She was a good Bolt that relied on speed and agility for her stunts, which Blitz could respect immensely. Sure she wasn’t a star like Firestorm or Glide or Fleetfoot but she was still an impressive flyer nonetheless.
And despite how good he was, Blitz knew he was still too new on the field to be considered a big star and had quite a ways to go before he could stand next to his idols in front of the cheering crowds.
Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out the instructions for him to get to the training center. It was just past Canterlot, so they wouldn’t spoil the show for everypony while they practiced and got him up to speed. Stretching his neck to the side, he saw that he had a lot of walking to do once he got to Canterlot before he would be picked up by Nightingale sent by the team to take him the rest of the way to the training field. The directions made sense, he guessed, if he didn’t try to think all the way through of the steps he had to do. Applejack would have such an easier time with these instructions; she had a much better sense of where she was going than him when they were on the ground.
Blitz sighed as he thought of his marefriend. He still needed to get her something, even if all he had planned was for them to go the rodeo or a carnival. And he guessed he needed to get his other friends something while he was out on tour and they were easier to shop for than Applejack. A book for Dusk, some cooking stuff for Bubbles, some fashion frufru stuff for Rares and something related to animals for Flutters; that was easy enough But Applejack; he groaned as his mind came up completely blank for what to get her. Something told him getting her rare apple seeds would not be an accepted anniversary gift but she wasn’t all that into jewelry so thatwas out.
He could ask some of the girl ‘Bolts for suggestions, but he felt that he should at least get the first anniversary gift right on his own before resorting to asking for help.
“Why does this have to be so hard,” he groaned as he pushed his mane out of his face. Rolling his head to the side, he watched the scenery go past him for a bit before he fished out his latest Dashing Dare book and started to pick up where he had left off.
Getting comfy, he started to enjoy the second best-no, flying was the second pleasure in his life. His ear flicked as he tried to figure out where he placed reading in his life but shook his head as he really didn't care that much and just wanted to read his book.
Blitz shifted himself upright as the train began to slow down, with Canterlot’s train station coming into view from the window. Putting his book away in his bag and getting to his hooves, he waited for more of the crowd to get off before making his way to the doors. Turning his head, he took in the sight of Canterlot and was amazed by the dazzling view of the city.
Taking a deep breath in from the high altitude air, he pulled out the instructions again and looked at them before he looked at the street sign for where he was. Seeing that they were very straightforward, he began to walk down the sidewalk, taking in the sights while keeping an eye on the stores to see if there was anything he could pick up for AJ as an anniversary gift but there was nothing he could see that said Applejack to him and he was on schedule at the moment. Seeing that the assigned meeting spot was a couple blocks down the street, Blitz huffed the duffle bag on his shoulder higher and continued on his way to meet Nightingale.
He got a few looks from the ponies as he looked out of place from the fancy Canterlotians and briefly wondered if he had packed his suit or not. He really hoped it was the former as Captain Firestorm had insisted on being professional before every show and that meant he had to have his suit ready which meant he would need to spend the night before the big show ironing out all the creases. He’d gotten really good at it since he had moved near Applejack and started helping out with the laundry, and Granny had been overjoyed to have him around as he had done such a good job while making a lot of unsubtle jabs at Applejack and Big Mac for not being able to do even the most basic of folds without a sleeve sticking out or hang the pants correctly. Even a few of the female Bolts teased him about being so handy at his laundry skills that he’d make a perfect wife one day.
That’s if he had packed it with him and wasn’t completely screwed. He didn’t have a lot of bits on him and…
Facepalming, he realized he would need to go to the bank after the show which meant shopping in Canterlot was completely out of the question.
Rolling his eyes at his stupidity, he turned the corner and continued to bob and weave his way through the seemingly complicated avenues before he finally reached the meeting spot and saw Nightingale waiting next to a carriage with the animals pulling it ready to go.
“Hey there Blitz,” Nightingale said, waving to him, resting her back against the carriage with her left hoof on a wheel.
“Hey, Nightingale,” Blitz said, waving to the mare. “How are you doing?”
Nightingale waved back to him, stretching out her arms with her pulled carriage cutie marks visible before putting them behind her head. “I’m good, you ready to go?”
“Sure.” Blitz hurried over, inwardly shaking his head. It was still hard for him to believe that a pony who looked just like one of Nightmare Moon’s fake Shadowbolts had turned out to exist in real life, until Princess Luna had privately explained that her other half had seen more than a few ponies while flying through Canterlot the night she’d escaped the moon and had simply borrowed their images when she’d tried to draw Blitz away from his friends during their trip through the Everfree. She herself had eventually approached the mare when she had seen that Nightingale was having some issues with her current boss and recommended that she take a position as support staff with the Wonderbolts. The pegasus mare had gladly taken the job when she was offered it, and was quite happy with her new lot in life.
Throwing his duffle bag into the carriage, he joined Nightingale up front as he usually did when she taxied him or the other ‘Bolts around.
“So how are things back in Ponyville?” she asked him, keeping an eye on the road.
“Good, nice and slow right now,” he replied, shifting to get comfortable. “You?”
“Eh, can’t complain,” she said as she turned down a street that Blitz could tell was the start of a downward slope despite the near perfect leveled street. “Me and Steep Descent had a nice date a few days ago; kinda hope he’s the one you know?”
“That’s good; I’ll tell AJ when I get a chance. She’s rooting hard for you two,” Blitz said before he hastily added in,me too. He still found it a little amusing that the inspiration for one Shadowbolt had wound up dating the inspiration for one of the other two, but wasn’t about to say as much to her. Besides, she and the Descent brothers had already been told about that incident when Luna had brought them together soon after Nightingale had gotten her new job, and all three had gladly accepted the princess’s apology for her unwilling role in what had been, technically, identity theft.
“How are you guys going, by the way?” she asked, giving him an amused look.
“We’re doing good,” he told her with the buildings getting less fancy and well kept as they got lower in the city, the recently built gatehouse appearing rather quickly.
“How long have you guys been going out anyways? Like a year or so?” She grinned, giving him an elbow poke to the side as they pulled up to the gatehouse with the guards doing a routine security check.
“Almost a year now,” Blitz told her after they were past the border of the city. “Our first anniversary is in just a little while, but we’re holding off on celebrating until after we both get some stuff done. Like this tour.”
“You’re missing your first anniversary with her?” she winced and shook her head. “And she’s cool with this?”
“Yeah,” Blitz replied. “She knows being part of the Wonderbolts has been my dream since… well, forever. And we’ve promised to do something together after. And besides, it was her idea for me to actually do this.”
“Still, not the smartest of ideas,” she told him as she took them on a switchback path down the mountain with Blitz holding on tight to the side of the carriage as there were a lot of bumps that made him feel as if he could go sailing into the mountain with the right jolt. “She might just be saying she’s cool with this but she could really be saying that she doesn’t want you to go without making you feel bad directly.”
Blitz could barely hold back the scowl that was threatening to erupt. “I know Applejack,” he said. “She doesn’t lie, or tell half-truths. If she says she’s okay with me going out of town for a while, even if it means delaying something else important to us both, she means it.”
“Hey, I’m just saying that’s what passes for normal girlfriend code Blitz,” she told him with a serious look, her hands still steering the carriage down the rocky path. “If she really is that cool with you being away on you guys’ first anniversary, then great! If not… well,” she shrugged her shoulders.
“Right,” Blitz rolled his eyes as he did his best not to panic and flap his wings as Nightingale made a very sharp turn on a very small ledge.
“So… what did you get her?” she asked in a sing-song voice.
“Well, I haven’t quite figured that part out yet,” Blitz admitted with his shoulders slumping. “I was hoping I’d think of something while I was out here, but I just don’t know.”
“Well it should mean something to you guys,” she said, tilting her head to the side. “Nothing too risqué; would send the message that you just view your relationship with her as an easy fuck.”
Blitz snorted. “Believe me, we figured out that we meant a lot more to one another than that before we became an official couple.”
“Good for you, Blitz, you’re already more mature than half of the stallions in Equestria,” she grinned, patting him on the head playfully. “So come on, tell me what else you got in mind for her. You’ve gotta have something in that noggin of yours.”
“I told you, I’m completely stumped; I mean, Applejack isn’t into jewelry, and the only other things I can think of are rare apple seeds. And I know that apple seeds are not what you get a girl for your first anniversary,” Blitz said with a whine.
“Oh you better believe it’s not something you get a girl,” Nightingale said with an air of authority that made Blitz snort. “Not if you don’t ever want to have sex again, that is.”
“Right…” Blitz said, rolling his eyes. “I was also thinking of going out on a date with her to either a carnival or a rodeo, since that is something she likes, but I’m not sure if that will be enough or not.”
“You could try cooking dinner for her, that’s a good staple if you can’t think of anything else,” Nightingale said with a shrug as they got closer to the bottom of the mountain. “You cancook, right?”
“Not amazingly,” he admitted as he scratched the back of his head. “I can do a few things, like throwing together a quick salad, but I mostly rely on takeout or what my friends or family bring me.”
“So you either get good fast or that’s that idea out of the picture,” Nightingale let out a grunt of annoyance as they got on a very bumpy stretch of road and Blitz couldn’t help himself from flaring out his wings in fright. “Not sure what else you can get her then.”
“Great,” Blitz grumbled as he rolled his eyes as that was one idea shot down.”Still no closer to figuring out what I should get her.”
“Eh, you’ll figure it out; you’re lucky like that,” she said before pulling up to a stop near halfway down. “I think you should get inside; you seem a bit twitchy and the road is only getting worse from now.”
Blinking in surprise and horror that this was only going to get worse, he made his way off the seat and, while keeping a deathgrip on the side of the carriage, inched his way to the door and managed to open it without falling off the side of the mountain. While he normally didn’t have any fear of heights, the small glance he had of the rest of the way down made him instantly understand how some could actually be afraid of heights.
Sliding inside the carriage that actually had a seatbelt for him to use, Blitz did his best not to panic as carriage began to rock back and forth violently and not to swear at Nightingale who was now singing a merry song that was just putting him even more on edge.
“Annnd we’re here, Blitz,” Nightingale called out to him after a long terrifying period of time had passed with Blitz sure that he now had some gray to his colourful mane. “You awake in there?”
“Yeah I’m awake,” he said as he made his way slowly out of the carriage, his heart only starting to slow down now. “Don’t know how I could have slept with as wildly as you were driving.”
“Speak for yourself; I’ve seen how you fly,” Nightingale told him as he finished climbing out, grabbing his bag. “Field’s over that way, and I’ve got to get this thing back to the storage unit. See ya!”
As he watched her driving back up the mountain again, Blitz shook his head. “That mare…”
Shouldering his bag, he headed off to the barracks to report in and stash his gear when he stopped and realized he would more than likely have to go back up that road later on this week. With a groan, he made his way towards the barrack when Firestorm flew over the barracks and landed in front of him.
“Ah good, you could actually come Ditz,” the stallion said, reaching out to shake his hand with Blitz doing his best not to cringe at his colthood nickname which had, to his annoyance, become his official nickname when he’d joined the team after Fire Streak had retired to go into teaching at their academy full-time. He’d been stuck with the moniker as a result of a horrendous series of missteps after a training practice that first day, and despite his attempts to get it changed, it was what they called him when not using his real name. “That’s really great; while Thunderlane lives in the same town, he doesn’t have the same speed or power you do.”
“But I’m going to guess he is a bit more reliable than me?” Blitz asked with an arched eyebrow, feeling he had a guess to why Thunderlane was mentioned.
“Yeah…” Firestorm had the decency to look embarrassed. “We had to decide if we wanted somepony more flashy and skilled over one that we could completely trust to stick to the routine.”
“That whole jab aside,” Blitz said while rolling his eyes before looking the pegasus in the face. “I’m still honoured to be picked boss.”
“Look Blitz, you’ve proved yourself countless times in the past so this is your big chance with us,” Firestorm patted him on the shoulder. “So come in, get changed and we’ll start you with what you need to know. Blaze is waiting for you right now and she’s eager to start.”
“Right,” Blitz nodded his head as he ran inside, spying the quarters that had the stallion stencil on it and entered the room. Throwing his duffle bag on the bench, he quickly began to change into his uniform, and made his way onto the training field; feeling completely confident in leaving his belongings alone like this. Stepping outside, he could already see Blaze, Glide, Firestorm, Silver Zoom and Surprise in the air, doing what his training told him was a loose warm up.
Flapping his wings as he called out to them; as it was not only proper etiquette to do so but also a safety concern as to prevent mid air accidents, he saw them slow down to greet him.
“Heya Blitz, great that you’re able to make it,” Blaze said, hovering next to him and gave him a light punch on the shoulder. “A shame what happened to Fleetfoot but hey, you’re just as good, if not better, though don’t tell her I said that.”
“Yeah ‘cause we’ll never stop hearing her complain about it,” Glide, the lieutenant of the Bolts, grumbled. “Firestorm will hate me for saying this, but she kinda deserved knocking her wing out of place like she did.”
“How did she injure herself, anyways?” Blitz asked as he started to limber himself up.
“She got cocky during a stunt and hit a pole with her wing,” Glide told him. “Bruised the joint and had it swell up real bad. Docs said she was groundbound for at least a week or two, so she’s on medical leave until then.”
Blitz winced. “Ouch.”
“Yeah; now it makes sense when I tell you guys to leave the bragging for solid ground,” Firestorm said as he flew into the sky with them. “Doing it in the middle of a routine is just begging for Fate to come up and deck ya in the schnoz. Blitz, a couple of laps around the field to get warmed up, after that, Blaze show him what he needs to know. Everypony else, you know what you need to do.”
There was a chorus of affirmatives before Blitz shot off for what was a steady workout for himself with the mares following behind him for their own workouts. As he built up speed and pressure during his laps, Blaze called out to him to slow down so they could chat and prepare for their routine. Spreading out his wings to cut his speed, he let her and the other mares catch up to him.
“So Blitz,” Glide said as she, Blaze and Surprise all flew up. “How’s it going for you, back in Ponyville?”
“Good,” Blitz replied. “No monsters, no end of the world baddies, no nothing dangerous to stop.” He half-smirked, but kept his next thought to himself: Unless you count Rarity’s flirting and trying to get into Dusk’s pants as dangerous, and Dusk’s only halfway trying to stop her at this point.
“That's good to hear Blitzie,” Surprise said, still eerily similar to Bubble Berry. “Speaking of good things, how are you and your marefriend doing?”
“We’re doing good,” Blitz replied. “I think her family really likes me now; Granny basically treats me like a fourth grandkid, Buck thinks of me as another big brother, and Mac no longer polishes the shotgun when we’re alone.” The girls laughed at that one, thinking it was a joke or something, then Glide caught the look in his eye.
“He really did that?” she asked.
“Absolutely,” Blitz said as he kept going. “Of course, I’m not surprised - Dad mentioned once that if it’d been the other way around, me being born a mare and Applejack being a stallion, he’d be doing the same thing whenever AJ came over. And ditto for if I had any sisters and they brought a boy home.” He considered. “Not sure how he’d react if one of them had a marefriend instead, but the point’s moot, since it’s just me. And Scoots, since he’s as good as family too, even if he doesn’t live with any of us.”
“What about if you had daughters, what’d you do then?“ Glide cooed out teasingly with the other two snickering.
“I’d like to say I would be the one but then again, AJ would be their mom…” Blitz trailed off, the idea of having children with her was both scary as all Tartarus and a bit… cool.
“Ain’t you two close to your first anniversary or something?” Blaze asked, tilting her head to him.
“Yeah, like in a month or so,” Blitz replied, hearing the winces already as he started to explain himself for the second time that day. “But we’re holding off on celebrating until after this tour’s over - and before you say anything, we talked it over and she’s fine with it.”
“You sure about that?” Blitz could hear the disbelief in Blaze’s tone. “‘Cause if I had a coltfriend and he had to be away during our first anniversary…”
“Like I said, we discussed it,” Blitz said with a sigh. “She knows being part of this team has been my dream since I was a kid, and she swore she had no problem with it and I believe her completely. ‘Sides, it’s not like we won’t see one another until after everything’s done - I gave her that last pass that Fleetfoot had, the one for the Canterlot show.”
“Okay, okay, you believe that she’s fine with you being away on a very special day; that’s fine,” Surprise said, doing her best to settle the tension. “So other big question; what are you getting her?”
Blitz winced. “That’s the problem, I don’t know,” he admitted. “I’ve been trying to think of something, but nothing seems right.” That got him several sighs of exasperation with Blitz groaning. “I know, I know; it’s not good but I’ve been trying for a while to think of something to get her the right gift to celebrate a year of being together and I’ve got nothing.”
“Well,” Blaze said. “You could-”
“Start practicing for the upcoming tour and talk later.” Firestorm said as he flew by them, looking a bit annoyed.
“Yes boss,” all four chorused, before they put on a burst of speed as their focus turned back to their flying.
“And that’s what we need to do, Blitz,” Blaze said as the pair did a slow circuit in the air. “Or what you need to do; we just need to work on the timing when we spread out from Fire and Glide’s burst from the start and then make sure we are parallel Silver and Surprise when we do our spins.”
“Right,” Blitz said while mentally visualizing what he would need to do - he’d be flying behind and below Glide, while Silver Zoom was doing the same above, and midway through the routine they’d fly in spins to meet one another in midair and change sides to do the whole thing in reverse but faster. And of course, Firestorm, Blaze and Surprise would be mirroring them on the other side of the arena.
After that part, Blitz knew things got a lot easier for him as there were less critical stunts, though they still required making precise timing with his partners. What he mainly had to worry about at that point was flying in sync with Blaze so it would be as pleasing to the eye as an apple fritter and that he wouldn’t crash into anypony else when he was crossing the airspace. “I’ll practice the moves a few times with you so I get the idea, then I’ll go myself to fine tune it, then back with you and Silver so I can get the timing even better.”
“You know, anyone else, I’d say you’re full of shit but,” Blaze smirked at him and shook her head. “And AJ is a lucky girl, ‘cause I’d be interested if you weren’t already spoken for.” Blitz sputtered at that as he was completely caught off guard by what the mare said. “Though I highly doubt you’ll try anything, I’ll rat you out to her in a heartbeat if you do.”
“Right…” Blitz trailed off, unsure how to respond to that. He wasn’t sure how he felt people making comments like that about his relationship with AJ but he wished they’d stop.
“Come on, Ditz; let’s start practicing before Fire gets on our asses again,” Blaze said before taking off into the air, with Bitz putting aside his troubles and focused on his job.
Applejack let out a sigh as she got ready for bed and did a rundown of her chores in her mind. Everything else around the house was cleaned and straightened up, and she’d made sure that Tank was content and well fed, the tortoise smiling happily at her from his terrarium. Casting an eye on Blitz’s home, she knew that there was a very little chance of it getting dirty again after she spent the day before cleaning up in there and she already had half a mind to read her coltfriend the riot act about all the garbage she had pulled out.
“Ah really don’t know how your owner can leave his place such a disaster area,” she told Tank. “Ah swear, one good bolt of lightnin’ and he’d come home to find his trash had turned into a whole new civilization and taken over the place.”
Tank just gave her one of his friendly looks, and she smiled back at him. “Thanks for listenin’, Tank.”
She heard a chuffing sound behind her, and turned around to rub Winona’s ears. “Don’t worry, Ah ain’t forgettin’ you, darlin’,” she told her faithful collie, who gave her a friendly nuzzle in return before moving to her own spot and laying down beside her bed.
Pulling back her bedsheets to climb in her bed, Applejack grabbed the alarm clocks she had on her nightstand and made sure that they were all set to the same time so she wouldn’t sleep in and miss the train to catch the show. While she was normally an early riser, she wasn’t taking any chances, not on a day as important as this one.
It had been a week since he’d left and she missed him terribly; she had gotten so used to him being around the farm that it was so surreal not have him fly by, help her out or just turn up napping in one of her trees after training for a while. She had to admit, she understood why he did so; she had done one of his exercises a while back and she’d been pooped aftward and the tree branches were surprisingly comfortable as a pegasus.
Shaking her head, she willed herself to sleep so she could start the next day as fast as she could.
BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEP
Shaking herself awake, Applejack reached over to the alarm locks and began shutting them off, holding the blanket to her bare chest. While she had mainly slept naked to tease Blitz as he had the perfect view to her window, she kept the habit as she enjoyed how it felt. Stepping around her room, she bade Tank and Winona good morning as she gathered the clothes she was going to wear for the day and made her way to the bathroom to her morning shower.
Walking into her personal and private bathroom, which she liked as it ensured Mac or Buck couldn’t walk in on her, she placed the clothes on the sink’s edge and nodded her head at her reflection, running a hand over her breast with her thumb on her nipple. Smirking as she recalled how Blitz loved to play with them, she was a bit tempted to mimic his fingers - Solaris knew that she couldn’t do his tongue - but she knew she had to be good if she wanted to be on time for everything today and that meant no funny business. Stepping into the shower that sadly wasn’t a pegasi one that would remember the perfect temperature, she crouched under the showerhead as she began to fiddle with the taps while holding her hand under the faucet. After she found the temperature she liked, Applejack took a step backwards as she turned on the water for the showerhead and let it run down her body for a bit, enjoying the way the water warmed her up as she ran her hands over herself, feeling from her chest down to her hips and pouted a bit that it wasn’t Blitz who was doing it for her this time. Thinking of her colt got her tail swishing behind her and while she was a bit excited, she had to remind herself that there was no playing around as she could easily get carried away.
Reaching for the bottle of body wash that she nicked from from Blitz, she squirted some onto her hand and began soaping herself up, massaging the liquid over her breasts and down her stomach. Holding out a leg, she continued to wash down to her hoof, wincing a bit as she felt a twinge in her muscles as she ran her hands over them, before she shifted her positioning and did her other leg.
Slowly turning around and holding her hands under the water, she continued moving, letting the water run over her body and rinsing it all off, making sure to get a good amount of water into her unbound hair at the same time. Once she was sure she’d gotten all the suds off herself, she ducked her head under the showerhead again to get it thoroughly wet before she reached out for her shampoo.
As she worked it into her mane and tail, she began to hum a song under her breath. After she had put in enough and worked up a good lather, she began to wash them out, standing under the showerhead while doing a small little dance in the water flowing down her entire body.
WIth a soft sigh, she turned around and bent down to shut off the water, with her butt in the air and her tail to the side. With the water tapering off, she stood up and pulled open the curtain and reached for a towel. Stepping onto the carpet, she began to dry her arms off first before moving on to her chest and then going downwards. She rubbed her legs dry, before finishing with her butt.
Once she’d finished drying herself, she tossed her towel into the hamper and began to blow dry her mane and tail, while moving her clothes to the toilet seat so she could brush her teeth without getting them wet.
After she was done with her hair, she began to brush her teeth while she looked at Blitz’s house from the reflection of the mirror and smiled. It was a real marvel what that colt could do with his hands and in her opinion, Rarity could take some pointers from him.
After she was done with her usual morning cleaning routine, she began to pull her clothes on by starting with the pair of pink panties that she knew Blitz always liked to see her in. She then pulled on her slim blue jeans and slipped on the belt before reaching for her custom made button up blouse and did it up, once again giving a silent thanks to Rarity for introducing her to these type of tops.
Once she had finished and gave one last look around, she went back into her bedroom, let Winona out of the room, made sure Tank had enough food and water to last the day and gave the tortoise one last friendly pat on the head, telling him to enjoy himself. Grabbing her hat off the wall, she headed out and downstairs.
Her brothers were already at the kitchen table with their breakfasts, and the pair looked up as she entered.
“She had to make a quick run out back for somethin’,” Apple Buck responded.
“Raght.” Applejack started helping herself to something, and for a few minutes the trio ate in silence. When she’d finished, Applejack looked at Mac. “Remember to check in on Tank for me, okay? And Ah’ll see ya both tomorrow afternoon.”
The eldest and youngest of the Apple siblings nodded, and after grabbing her purse and making sure the tickets were inside, Applejack hurriedly trotted out of the house and made her way down to the train station. She knew she had ample time on her hands but she wasn’t taking any chances today; she’d even gotten Fluttershy to have Eris to promise to not do anything that would interfere in her plans.
Sitting on the bench while she waited for the train to arrive, she was joined by other ponies, making small talk with them for a bit until the train finally came by and she could go aboard and see Blitz.
Rainbow Blitz was pacing back and forth as he stood in the stallions’ dormitory, fiddling with his tie for upteempth time. It was finally time for the show to begin and they would be taken up to the arena by Nightingale and the other drivers for the team. The fact that this was finally happening was both exciting and, at the same time, utterly terrifying - sure, he was awesome and all, but he didn’t want to get so overly excited that he lost it and fell back into old showboating behaviors like he had during his very first performance as a full team member.
“Hey, Blitz, how are you doing?” Firestorm asked as he stepped into the room. The captain had told Blitz he was dressed just fine in the fancy black suit that Rarity had made him, although he was wearing his official Wonderbolt captain uniform.
“Good, good, I think,” Blitz said with his wings twitching behind him. “Just a bit anxious I guess?”
“Perfectly reasonable,” Firestorm said, placing a hand on his shoulder. “This is your first time up with everypony for a full tour; I’d be annoyed if you were overly confident. Last thing I need is a cocky showpony up there putting people at risk.”
Blitz winced at the reminder of his first performance after being promoted to the front line, but kept his mouth shut.
“Now buck up,” Firestorm told him. “We’ve got a big show, and I need everypony at their best.”
“Got it,” Blitz said as he followed his captain outside the training area where all the carriages were waiting for them, Nightingale waving to him to get inside with the other drivers doing the same.
Luckily, the flight to the arena went much smoother than the trip down, and very soon, once they’d arrived and gotten into their flight suits, all they had to do was wait for the signal.
“Mares and gentlecolts, fillies and foals of all ages!” the announcer finally called out. “Look to the skies and prepare to be awestruck by the incredible flying prowess of... the Wonderbolts!”
Rainbow Blitz closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and flew.
Some hours later, Blitz smirked triumphantly to himself; this was his first major show and not only had he done an amazing job, he’d also done his one scheduled mini-show and Applejack saw it. Or at least he hoped she did; he hadn’t got a chance to look at the crowd at the start of the show and he certainly didn’t stop during the middle of it to scan for her.
Before he could even think further, he heard a whoop behind him and felt somepony slap him on the back.
“That was incredible Blitz,” Glide said with a massive grin on her face, her hood already pulled off. “You really knocked ‘em dead out there today. Great job.”
“Thanks,” Blitz said with a bit of a swagger, holding his head up slightly higher, as they made their way to the locker room, with the both of them stopping outside. “Still can’t believe that they only got one stall working for both locker rooms in Canterlotof all places.”
“Eh, you get used to this kind of thing, Blitz. Not every place has everything working perfectly and you learn to adapt to what is thrown at you,” she said, leaning against the wall while she began to fiddle with her zipper. Blitz immediately turned his head away only to hear her snort. “What, you modest or something?”
“Glide, you know that I’m with AJ and-” he began to say with her snorting louder.
“Blitz, I’m messing with you,” she said, rolling her eyes as she continued to struggle with her zipper. “You’re a real gent, you know that right? Most stallions in your position would be either ogling me or something right now. You? You show no interest whatsoever and even go out of your way to avoid being possibly unfaithful to your marefriend. No wonder you got that Loyal element thing, Blitz.”
Blitz had nothing to say, a blush slowly spreading on his face. He moved out of the way when Silver came out of the locker room and was about to enter himself when Glide let out a curse.
Turning his head, he saw that the mare was still fighting the zipper on her suit before she let out a groan and gave him a weak smile. “Um, Blitz, kinda personal and all but can you help me out here?” she asked him with a fierce blush on her face as she thrust out her chest to him.
His own blush grew as he nodded his head, walking over to her. Placing one hand on her side to brace himself, he grabbed the small tag that was just on top of her collarbone and gave it a light tug to test how stuck it was, only getting to halfway over her the top of her chest. Seeing that he would need to put some muscle into it, he made sure his eyes were directed upwards before he pulled the tag up to the top before pulling it back down, using a lot more force than he had before with it going past the curve of her breasts before he stopped. Talking a step back, he could hear Glide let out a sigh of relief before the sound of the zipper going up and down quickly.
“Thanks for that, Blitz, I really need that,” she said, slapping the cutie mark on his right shoulder. “Go wash up, you earned it.”
Nodding his head, he turned around and walked into the locker room behind him.
Applejack was not lost; she knew where she was and where she wanted to go. She was just a bit unsure of how to get from point A to point B and the security that had waved her past when she had shown her backstage pass wasn’t that clear beyond that she’d find it.
She had been extremely impressed by Blitz; she hadn’t seen him move like that in ages and all the training he had done at the farm really was just a hint to what he could really do. She had to get him to train her a bit; it would be totally awesome as apple pie if she could do half of what he did.
“Um, Blitz,“ That was Glide, the second of command of the Wonderbolts. Blitz had told her all about the Bolts and he had even told her that he had had a crush on her but Applejack knew that-whatwas Blitz doing‽ For whatever reason, the mare had thrust her chest at Blitz and he was kneeling in front of with his hands on her waist.
Applejack forced herself to back around the corner and calm down; there had to be a reasonable explanation for what was going o-
Her ears shot upwards as she heard Blitz unzip the other mare’s suit and she did her best not to do something drastic like run in to punch the mare or Blitz out and decided to see what he did next.
“Thanks for that, Blitz, I really need that,” she heard Glide say, and there was a sound of flesh against flesh. “Go wash up, you earned it.”
Doing her best to control her breathing as she heard hoofsteps going away from her, Applejack made her way around the corner and over to the pegasus who turned and waved to her, with one hand holding her suit together. “Hey AJ,” she said, holding out her right hand for AJ to shake only to yip a bit as she had been using that hand to hold her suit together. “Sorry about that little peek there,” she said with a blush on her face, holding her suit tighter with her left hand. “Did you enjoy the show? Outside, I mean.”
“Yeah,” Applejack said with a frown on her face that Glide saw. She looked confused for a second before letting out a gasp.
“Oh this,” Gilde said, tugging her flightsuit a bit. “Blitz was just helping me out here. The zipper got stuck and I asked him to help me out.”
“Really?” she asked, raising an eyebrow at the mare.
“Yeah,” Glide said, nodding her head. “You really lucked out; most stallions would use it as a chance to cop a feel or something but Blitz really made sure he didn’t touch my chest and he even had his eyes pointing straight up the whole time.” Glide then frowned at her. “You didn’t think there was something going on, did you?”
“Well Ah did see mah coltfriend bending down in front of another mare with his hand on her waist,” Applejack said dryly. “But Blitz’s Blitz and Ah shouldn’t have been that worried.”
“Eh, it was a normal reaction to what looked to be a very sketchy scene, I don’t blame you,” Glide said. “Just like I won’t blame you if you go into the locker room that Blitz is in all by himself right now and lock the door behind you.” The mare gave her a wink which caused AJ to blush herself.
“Won’t Blitz get in trouble if he’s late?” Applejack had to at least make some effort to be reasonable, at the very least.
“Nah, I’ll give Firestorm the heads up; kinda an unspoken tradition for the newbie to sneak away to have some sex. This way, we know where he is and who he’s with so we don’t have to worry about any bad PR in the future,” Glide said as she leaned against the wall.
“Well then,” Applejack said as she pushed open the door to the stallion’s locker room. “See you later, Ah suppose.” She waved goodbye to Glide as the door closed behind her, with her hand going to turn the lock.
Stepping into the locker room, Applejack locked the door behind her with her heart thumping in her chest at what she was doing.
This would be the most insane thing she had do- No, that wasn’t right; she had done plenty of crazier things like facing down a crazy moon goddess and a spirit of chaos.
Okay, this would be craziest romantic relationship thing she had ever done. Sure, they had done a bit of acting before making love but nothing like this.
What the hay was she thinking, she should just get out of here before Blitz saw her.
“Fucking finally,” Blitz shouted just up ahead, nearly causing her to jump in surprise. Squatting low, she peeked around the corner to catch Blitz holding the zipper head in his hands, unzipped to his chest. “I need to talk to Firestorm about these.”
So Glide wasn’t blowing smoke up her skirt though she was already almost positive that Blitz had nothing wro-
Stifling her gasp, she watched as Blitz finished unzipping his suit down to his waist and began to peel it off himself with his cock resting nicely against his legs. Licking her lips, she watched him finally step out of his flight suit. With some misplaced pride, she noted that Blitz folded it up properly before he opened up his locker and began to fish out some cleaning stuff.
He was holding soaps and seemed like he was actually debating whether or not to use them when he sniffed his armpit and reeled backwards. “Yeesh, I am rank,” he said to himself, placing the bottles under his arm as he reached for the towel inside of his locker and threw it over his shoulder. Turning around again, with his cock in clear sight, Blitz walked past her to the shower with Applejack planning the best way to surprise her colt.
Rainbow Blitz had admit that AJ had been a very telling influence on him; a year ago, he’d never strut around the locker room like this without covering himself up. He wouldn’t have thought of her being a bit of an exhibitionist two years ago but all those morning showers and those exercises she had done in her room had proven otherwise.
Thinking of his marefriend caused his cock to twitch and he had half a mind to jack off in the shower. Opening up the stall that didn’t have a sign saying out of order on it, he placed his shampoo and gels down on the alcove and tossed his towel over the door as he closed it behind him. Stretching his arms above his head and his wings out to the their full extent until he heard a pop, he let his limbs fall and started to turn on the water.
That was when he heard hoofsteps outside of the stall.
“Hey, is somepony out there?” he called, reaching for his towel. Wrapping it around himself, he stepped outside and to look to see who was there.
“Well, hello there, sugarcube,” Applejack cooed at him, leaning against the wall and giving him a big smirk before walking over to him . “Might Ah say, nice show out there.”
“Applejack, what are you doing here?” Blitz said in surprise, holding his towel together. “I could get in so much trouble-”
“Glide gave me the go-ahead, Blitz, and told me ta lock the door,” Applejack said looking hungrily at him, leaning for in a powerful kiss. Blitz was about to return the gesture when he remembered something that had just happened.
“AJ, one second,” he said, causing her to pause. “Just before I got in here, I had helped Glide with her suit; her zipper got stuck.” He saw her pull back and Blitz felt the need to explain faster. “I know that’s not what you want to hear right now but I figure it’s better hearing it from me than some stupid rumour magazine that’s trying to sell everything as being something dirty and-”
“Blitz, ya darn lovable galoot,” Applejack shook her head with a pleased smile on her face; pulling his head in close. “She told me the same outside and… Blitz, yer about to get some and yer first thoughts are ta tell me about somethin’ ya might have done wrong so Ah won’t be hurt.” She kissed him on the lips with Blitz reaching to hold her closer only to have Applejack place a finger on his muzzle. “Now hold on, sugarcube. Ah just got this with me,” she gestured to her white blouse and blue jeans before flashing him a grin. “And ya ain’t touching me when yer all wet.”
Blitz leaned backwards on his hoofs, an eager grin of his own on his face as he had a feeling where this was going. With his hands moving to his waist, and thus having his towel open to her, he asked her. “Now how’re we going to fix that?”
“Simple enough, Blitz, and you don’t need to do anything,” Applejack said as she reached for the top buttons on her blouse. “Ya look tired so why don’t Ah help you out?” she asked him as she continued to unbutton her shirt, her breasts already in view.
“Oh?” he asked as he flipped the towel onto his shoulder without thinking, although he could tell by Applejack’s eyes widening that she highly approved. “Eeyup,” Applejack said as she finished unbuttoning her shirt and placed it behind her on the bench. “Ah’ll take care of the washin’, don’t you worry bout a thing, ya hear?”
“Yessem,” Blitz said as he watched her unhook her belt and tug her jeans down. His tail flicked a bit more as he saw that she was wearing the pair of panties he liked the most on her. When she had stepped out of her pants and was bending down to gather them, Applejack had also slid her panties off. Walking over to the bench with her tail giving him glimpses of her pussy, Applejack placed the last of her clothes on the stack, placing her hat on top with a flourish, and then turned to face Blitz.
Walking back to him with a sway of her hips, Applejack traced a finger down his chest before nodding her head in approval. Pulling the towel off his shoulder, she pointed to the running shower which Blitz began to turn back to.
Although it wasn’t quick enough for Applejack as she used his towel to slap his ass. Giving her a look as to ask if she was serious, she simply nodded her head and held the towel as if she was going to use it again.
Snorting, Blitz walked back under the water with Applejack closing the stall door behind her. “Now let’s get you washed up,” Applejack said as she threw the towel over the door before leaning on him, her chest pushing against his. “Ah, there’s ya soap.” She breathed into his ear, grinding her breasts into him before pulling back with the bottle in her hands. Squirting some of the gel into her hand, she placed the bottle behind her and began to lather him down. Blitz began to groan as she rubbed him from the neck down, making sure to work it thoroughly into every part of him.
She then squatted low, and began to rub his cock with her soapy hands. He began to moan as she began to build him up and just as he began to hit that point, she stopped.
“AJ?” he asked only for her to shush him, placing a finger on his lips.
“No talkin’,”she said huskily, pulling him close. “Ya don’t want to get shampoo in yer mouth?” Before he could even answer, she kissed him again with her tongue pushing into his mouth. Holding her head close, Blitz slid his tongue into her mouth, his rock hard cock pressed against her taut stomach.
Both of them were moaning now until Applejack broke off the kiss and spun him around, her back the wall. “Now then, let’s wash that mane of yours,” she said, grabbing the bottle of shampoo and while Blitz knew that AJ usually had good plans for these little things, Blitz decide to be bold. Grabbing her waist, he lifted her up, causing the earth pony to squeak and wrap her legs around him. To better brace them, he leaned her against the wall with the water running down her face.
“Just giving you a better reach, love,” he whispered at her with Applejack snorting.
“Says mah short coltfriend,” Applejack said as she started to rub the shampoo into his mane.
“I thought I was fun sized,” Blitz pouted playfully as she ran her fingers through his mane.
“That you are,” she said before she rubbed herself along his penis. “Except where it matters of course, mah love.”
Without either of them saying anything, Blitz lifted her higher with Applejack loosening her legs just enough so he could tease her vagina. Giving her a look in the eye for her permission, she nodded her head and pulled him in for another kiss as he slide into her. Any pretence of washing up was gone as Blitz began to thrust his hips upwards into his mare with Applejack holding onto his neck while moaning encouragements.
Blitz didn’t want to admit it but without those yeses and hearing her say his name, he would have fallen on his ass ages ago as he was dead tired from the show. But he hadn’t disappointed her before and he wasn’t going to start now. Using a second wind, he continued his thrusting, feeling himself reach a peak with Applejack moaning louder. It was clear that both of them were about to climax so Blitz pushed further inside of her with Applejack's walls clamping down tighter on his aching cock.
Then at a random moment, he began to pump his ropy seed into her as her juices flowed down from her vagina. Both of them were panting hard, Blitz doing his best to slide out once they were done since his strength was gone and he didn’t want to drop Applejack on the tile floor. She was no doubt aware of how tired he was as she was doing her best to lift herself off him, and soon they were staring each other in the face.
“That was freaking amazing, Applejack,” Blitz said. “Thanks.”
“Ain’t nothing to it Blitz,” she said, rubbing his arm. “Now come on; we’ve fooled around enough, let’s get washed up and to the afterparty.”
Nodding his head in agreement, Blitz went to help Applejack clean off, for real this time.
