Lyra and Bonbon decide to take a new lover for companionship.
This is not pornographic. This is a three way romance story between Lyra Heartstrings, Bonbon, and an indigo Pegasus mare named Doris who's pretty sure they've lost their minds!
Doris lives a lonely and isolated existence as the librarian at the Ponyville library. She loves coffee and spends most of her time keeping to herself as she reads and sips her warm caffeinated beverages. But she does have a guilty pleasure! She gets paid on Thursdays and always goes to Bonbon's candy shop in town to get chocolate millionaires on those days!
Bonbon had talked to Lyra earlier about how lonely she got whenever Lyra went on tour in Canterlot with her quire and eventually, Lyra suggested they add another lover to the mix. And that's when Bonbon thought back to Doris, the lovely Pegasus mare she saw every Thursday. Bonbon had to admit, Doris was a cutie and so, the following Thursday, Bonbon decided to start talking with her!
The next week on Friday, the following events take place...
“Well, she said she always went to the market on Fridays to get some food before heading home and making it herself. But uh, it’s a big market!”
Lyra spots an indigo Pegasus mare with a long straight pink tail and shorter “flame” style mane cut down the back of her neck. She points her hoof in that direction and says, “Hey! Is that her?”
Bonbon widens her eyes as she says, “Yeah! That’s the one I was telling you about! Her name is Doris and she’s just so gosh darn cute!”
“Well, what are we waiting for?”
Bonbon frowns at Lyra, “Well it’s not like we can just go ask her to dinner?”
Lyra looks back towards the Pegasus, smiles, and trots forward. Once near her, Lyra looks directly at Doris and says, “Hi! You’re Doris, right? Bonnie was just talking about you and well, you wanna go out to dinner with us tonight and hang out?” right in front of a shocked Bonbon.
The Pegasus looks stunned at first, but soon regains composure as she says, “Yeah I talk to your wife every Thursday when I get my treat. Uh, sure, Lyra was it?”
Lyra smiles and says, “Yup! That’s me! Lyra! How does 7 at the Ponyville Café sound?”
*******
Later that evening Doris swished her long pink tail incredulously as she stared at Lyra and Bonbon on the other side of the table. She widens her eyes as she once again asks the two ponies, “Okay wait! What?”
Lyra smiles and says, “We want you to be our third! With us! Like I already told you, my quartet touring takes me away from home sometimes and Bonnie here gets lonely. And I told her I wouldn’t mind if we both took on an extra lover and that’s where you come in!”
Doris frowns and says, “Um, why me? I mean, I’m the most boring pony in Equestria! I just read, keep to myself, and sip my coffee! Why would you be interested in me at all?”
Lyra smiles even more broadly as she says, “Exactly! You’re not going to do anything weird and we decided that if we’re going to do this, we should scout out potential partners and you fit the bill nicely! We’d like to give you a try!”
Doris sips her coffee and as she sets it down, she says, “Well it’s not like I have any other romantic options? And uh, you two are total lesbians right? Not interested in stallions at all?”
Lyra shakes her head and says, “Not really? I usually don’t like the way they act and Bonnie here is put off by um, other things…”
Doris starts giggling to herself as Bonbon frowns and asks her, “What’s so funny?”
Doris smiles as she says, “Well I was actually considering suggesting my brother and so that’s why I asked! The truth is, I actually don’t want to do this, and yet I really don’t see any reason not to!”
Bonbon starts and says, “Well if you don’t want to do this, we’re not going to force you!”
Doris chuckles and says, “Well that’s the thing! I’ve been alone for so long that I feel like I’m gonna go nuts if I don’t at least explore other options! But uh, this idea never really occurred to me until you two intercepted me in the market a little while ago! Er, what do you mean “scouting” anyway?”
Lyra says, “Well remember how you always go to Bonbon’s candy shop for millionaires every Thursday?
Doris says, “Well I get paid on Thursday and I love those things!”
Lyra says, “Right! Well Bonnie here started talking to you last week and the more she learned about you, well…” She then looks over to Bonbon to her left to see the yellow earth pony blushing slightly.
Doris looks at Bonbon stunned as she says, “Wait! Y-you liked me?”
Bonbon smiles and blushes slightly brighter as she says, “Well I thought you were cute and I kinda always had a thing for quiet types. Since Lyra and me agreed to do the poly thing, I decided to keep my eyes open and um, well….”
Lyra starts to prod Bonbon with her hoof as she says with a cutesy voice, “You LOVE her, don’t you?”
Bonbon says, “Stop it Lyra! Not in front of her!”
Doris giggles a bit more and looks up as she says, “Why not?”
Bonbon looks at Doris with concern in her eyes as she asks, “Are you okay Doris?”
Doris looks down at her and says, “Yeah! I’ll be fine…” and then wistfully looks off to the side.
Bonbon puts her right forehoof onto Doris’s left and looks into her eyes as she says to her, “Are you sure you’re okay with this Doris? You don’t sound comfortable to me?”
Doris looks into Bonbon’s eyes as she says, “Look! It’s been literally years okay? If I don’t at least see what’s out there, I don’t know what else to do with myself… You say you want to try me out? Well I’m saying we can do that…”
Bonbon smiles again and says, “Well okay Doris… As long as you’re sure…”
Doris sips more of her coffee before saying, “Well this is almost empty. Suppose we should pay and go then? Since my house is on the South end of town, I guess I should get started soon?”
Lyra smiles as she says, “Actually, we were hoping you could spend the night?”
Doris widens her eyes as she says, “Okay look! I’m not gonna do any sort of freaky”
Bonbon cuts her off sharply as she says, “No! It’s not like that! We don’t even want to have sex with you right now!”
Doris’s eyes narrow slightly as she peers out over the desolate patio and says, “Wait, so why do you want me to spend the night?”
Lyra says, “We want to get to know you! Doris, the librarian Pegasus!”
Doris frowns as she says, “Well tell me something. Do you have a coffee maker?”
*******
So later, Doris is sitting at their kitchenette table sipping her coffee and asking Lyra, “Okay just so we’re clear! Nothing sexual or freaky deeky until I clearly say I’m ready okay?”
Lyra giggles and smiles as she says, “I keep telling you! It’s not like that!” As she scoots her chair a little bit closer to Doris.
“Yeah sorry. I uh, used to watch a lot of porn!”
“You don’t think me and Bonnie don’t do that sometimes?”
“Hey now!”
“What? We’re all consenting adults here?”
“… Okay you got me there!”
“Where’s Bonnie with our coffee anyway?” Lyra looks over to her right side to see Bonbon slowly balancing out two coffee cups on her snout while keeping her head down, so it stays level. Lyra smiles and takes them off with her magic and floats them over to the table as she says, “There you go honey! Come sit down now!”
Bonbon raises her head, smiles, and says, “Thanks Lyra dearest!” before trotting back to the table and sitting down. She looks at Doris and says, “Yeah we both take our coffee sweet and blond and so it doesn’t matter which cup we get!”
Doris sips her coffee and says, “Well isn’t that convenient! And kinda sweet and cute really…”
Lyra smiles and says, “Yeah it is right? So, you really wanna do this Doris? Like Bonnie here said, we’re not going to force you into anything, and we understand if you’re not comfortable?”
Doris sighs and looks down as she says, “Look! For the last time, I’m game okay?”
Lyra says, “Well we just want to make sure!”
Bonbon smiles and says, “Don’t you mean, you’re gay?”
Lyra prods Bonbon with her forehoof and says, “Shut up Bonnie!”
Doris giggles as Lyra says, “Again, we don’t want to seem like we’re putting any sort of pressure on you, okay?”
And at that point, Doris sighs to herself as she gets off the chair. She then grumbles under her breath as she trots over to Bonbon’s side. Bonbon stares at her wide eyed as Doris just looks up at her and says, “Here we go!” And then passionately kisses Bonbon. Lyra starts at first, unsure of how to act, but she quickly regains composure when she remembers that this is acceptable.
Lyra looks on as Doris breaks with Bonbon, looks into her eyes, and asks her, “How was that?”
Bonbon just stutters out, “Um… Um…”
Doris smiles now knowing she has the earth pony where she wants her and moves in for another, slightly slower kiss.
Doris draws back again after Bonbon has a few lovely moments with her and looks at Lyra as she says, “And you!”
Lyra starts and frowns as she says, “Uh…”
Doris then trots around Bonbon, looks into Lyra’s eyes, and then kisses her slowly and deeply. Then she draws back carefully and smiles at the befuddled unicorn as she says, “Are you convinced now?”
Lyra says to Doris, “Okay, so I’m guessing we’re doing the three-way thing after all then!”
Doris smiles and nuzzles her as she says, “I guess so!”
Bonbon says, “Okay so we are, in fact, doing this then?”
Doris looks at Bonbon and says, “For the last time, yes! No, I’m not entirely comfortable, but now I’m curious and I know my other options are very bleak!”
Bonbon starts and says, “Doris! I don’t want you to do this just because you don’t have anypony else to love! I want you to love me for me Celestia-dammit!”
Doris smiles and says, “Tell me something! Did you love Lyra for Lyra when you first started going out?”
Bonbon starts, frowns, and says, “Well um, no, but that grew over time…”
Doris smiles and then says, “Exactly! But now I’m confused…”
Lyra, still up close to Doris, then asks her, “About what?”
Doris looks at Lyra and says, “Well at first, I thought you two were ready for this thing, but Bonbon keeps asking me if I wanna back out and I even had to convince you as well?”
Lyra giggles as she looks down. Then she looks at Bonbon and says, “Okay Bonnie! New rule! No asking the third if she wants to back out!”
Doris frowns and says, “I have a name you know!”
Lyra then turns back and nuzzles her as she says, “I’m sorry Dory! There’s more than one of you now!”
Doris smiles and says, “Dory? I kinda like that Lyra…”
Lyra smiles, “I’m glad…”
Doris yawns and Bonbon says, “It’s getting pretty late now. Do you two want to turn in?”
Lyra looks at Doris and asks her, “I’m not sure? Hey Dory! Wanna go to bed now with me and Bonnie?”
Doris starts and looks at Lyra as she says, “W-with both of you? Uh….”
Lyra says, “Of course! I mean, even if we’re not having sex, we would like to snuggle you! Well, we understand if you’re not ready for that yet…”
Doris squints as she says, “Look Lyra! I know me and I know that if I don’t do this right the buck now, I’m never going to… So, let’s snuggle!”
Lyra widens her eyes and says, “Um, okay then!” She looks back at Bonbon and says, “Okay Bonnie! You ready for bed now?”
Bonbon smiles and says, “I am if you are!”
Lyra smiles and says, “Great!” before getting off her seat and trotting towards the back of the cottage foyer as she says, “Dory! Our room is back here, and we have a king-sized mattress with plenty of room!” She opens the door with her forehoof, and Doris can now see the interior of the bedroom. She can make out the side of a large green bed and what looks like a few slightly darker green pillows on it.
Bonbon trots up behind her, looks at Doris, and says, “Are you coming Dory?”
Doris starts before getting off her chair and saying, “Um, okay but uh… Let’s go slow alright?”
Bonbon smiles and says, “Of course!”
Doris nervously trots towards the bedroom door. Lyra watches this and can’t help but think that she’s trotting like somepony on death row to their execution. She decides that she needs to put Doris at ease and trots over to her leaving behind a confused Bonbon.
Lyra looks into Doris’s eyes, smiles, and asks her, “You okay?”
Doris scratches the back of her head with her right forehoof and says, “I think so? I mean, when you first started talking to me about this, I didn’t expect to sleep with the two of you on the same night!”
Lyra smiles and nuzzles Doris’s snout gently with hers as she says, “It’s okay Doris’s. You need to know that we’re all here to love and support one another.”
Doris looks down and says, “Yeah, um, okay… Can I take the edge of the bed please? Um, until I’m more comfortable!”
Lyra grins wider and says, “Well, I was actually about to suggest that!
Doris widens her eyes and says, “Well then!”
Lyra then hugs Doris tightly as she whispers in her ear, “This is an adjustment for everypony, and we all need to be there for each other! I love you Dory!”
Doris smiles and says, “I-I love you too Lyra!”
Doris sees Bonbon smiling in the background over Lyra’s shoulder. At that point, she felt a little more at ease knowing everypony was there for each other.
Lyra breaks her embrace and looks at Doris as she says, “Shall we adjourn to the sleeping quarters then my dear?” As she curtly bows.
Doris snickers and says, “Stop it Lyra!” before deciding to trot over to the door near Bonbon with Lyra close in tow behind her.
Doris trots into the bedroom, deciding it’s now or never. Lyra trots in behind her followed by Bonbon who closes the door with her forehoof.
Lyra looks at Doris and says, “Okay I’ll make this easy! Doris can have the edge closest to the door so she’s more comfortable and Bonnie can take the other edge and I’ll be the “sacrificial pony” and take the middle!” She trots over and gets into bed and under the covers. She slides over to the center and pats the edge next to her and says, “Coming Dory?”
Doris smiles and says, “Sure! Why not? I woke up alone this morning, but I’m definitely not going to sleep that way!” Before trotting and getting into bed. She faces the door and puts her forehooves under her pillow with her head on top as she snuggles in.
Bonbon says, “Okay! My turn!” And then she trots over to the other side of the bed and slips in herself. She nuzzles Lyra and says, “Hello lover!”
Lyra smiles and says, “Hiya Bonnie! We’re not alone anymore!”
Bonbon says, “I know! Just what are we gonna do with our new Dory?”
Doris says to them on the other end, “Uh, what are you two talking about?”
Lyra smiles and licks her lips as she says, “Hey I know! Let’s hold her and love her! Um, if she’s okay with that?” as she looks back.
Doris says, “If you’re gonna do it, just do it now and get it over with!” as she tenses up while clutching the pillow.
Lyra twists her mouth as she realizes that making Doris comfortable is up to her at this point. She turns around and says, “Okay Dory… I’m going to hold you now. So, don’t freak out, okay?”
Doris almost shouts as she says, “Do it! Do it now!”
Bonbon looks on in shocked silence as Lyra moves her hooves over Doris in the soothing darkness of the room to envelope her in a loving embrace tentatively and says, “Geez! You’d think I was about to kill you Dory!”
Doris looks down and says, “Look! If we’re gonna do it um, let’s just do it okay! I-I’m scared…”
Doris’s body begins to quiver as Lyra hugs her closely and nuzzles the back of her neck and says, “It’s okay Dory! You’re safe here in my hooves. I have you now and I’m not letting go…”
Doris stammers out, “W-what about Bonbon, Lyra?”
Then, both ponies hear a sigh coming from the other side of the bed followed shortly by four hooves hitting the floor and trotting around the bed. Bonbon then trots around to the other side and looks at Doris as she says, “Dory… I’m one of your new lovers… Do you trust me?”
Doris says, “U-um…”
Bonbon then says lower, “Dory, I need you and Lyra to scoot back now… I want to hold you now…”
Doris feels Lyra scooting back behind her as she says, “Do I get a choice?”
Bonbon gets a wicked grin as she says, “Well you see, that’s where I probably have you Dory… You could get out of the bed and fly back home right now! No problem! We wouldn’t even be mad! But here’s the thing… You’d wonder, what if? So, let me ask you this Doris… Do you want to love two ponies?”
Doris scrunches her mouth and narrows her eyes, “You drive a hard bargain Bonnie… Okay fine! I’ll surrender to the lesbian snuggle fest!” before scooting back until she felt the warmth of Lyra’s body behind her as Bonbon giggles softly in the darkness.
Lyra puts her hooves over Doris to embrace her while Bonbon gets into bed from the other side, scoots closer to Doris, and embraces her herself. They both hold the Pegasus tightly in a warm, loving embrace.
Doris can only stutter, “Th-there’s two of you!”
Bonbon nuzzles her snout and says, “Yes Dory! Two of us and we both love you!”
Doris feels Lyra’s snout nuzzling the back of her neck and warm breath there as well. While it doesn’t excite the Pegasus at this point, it does provide a certain level of comfort that she just can’t ignore. She softly curls up while being held.
She comfortably drifts off to sleep and starts. She can feel Lyra’s embrace tighten on her body and she can also feel Bonbon nuzzling her from the front. She’s been held before, but it’s never been this intense.
She hears Bonbon say softly, “It’s okay Dory. You’re with us now and we love you!”
She then hears Lyra behind her whisper, “We have you and we’re not letting go… Just rest now sweetie…”
Doris moves her head down with her eyes closed and slowly drifts off to sleep in the embrace of these two, possibly insane, ponies.
Doris opens her eyes the next morning and sees the face of a yellow earth pony with a red and blue striped mane smiling at her.
“Hello lover! Did you sleep well?” Asks Bonbon as she gently nuzzles Doris’s snout.
Doris starts and says, “Y-yeah uh, where’s Lyra?”
“Oh she has early morning choir practice and she has some other music related things to do today. I’m off work and well, you’re a librarian and so you’re probably not working today either since it’s Saturday, right?”
Doris frowns and says, “Oh no! You planned this didn’t you? This is all meant to get me alone with you isn’t it?”
Bonbon squints and asks her, “Doris, do you see any other ponies here?”
“Um, no not really? It’s just you and me.”
“Exactly! We’ve been alone this whole time. Now nopony is forcing you into anything, but we decided that since you’re a librarian and have weekends off and since we each get our own “chunk” of the weekend to ourselves, you’d have a day with each of us so you can get used to your new marefriends individually first! Yeah, today is my day!” and then Bonbon smiles dimly back at her.
Doris then says, “Well I could just say no?”
Bonbon smiles wider and says, “But what if?”
“Alright, that argument is both compelling and irritating!”
Bonbon giggles as she nuzzles Doris’s snout once more and says, “Well then Dory, what would you like for breakfast?”
(To be continued…)
*I’m terribly sorry if you thought this was a clop fic. It’s not!
Doris frowns and looks down on her side of the bed and says, “Well uh, I usually just have toast and coffee?”
Bonbon smiles and says, “Sure thing Dory!”
Doris mutters to herself as she gets out bed and says, “You’re chipper in the morning… This annoys me…”
Bonbon giggles to herself as she scoots out of bed to her hooves on the floor and says, “Well, there’s three of us now. I guess it’s just Law of Averages that one of us probably wouldn’t be a morning person?”
“Uh, you’re not thinking of adding a fourth or anything are you?”
“Oh, heavens no Dory! I only needed a bit more company! Not a whole lot! You and Lyra should be fine!”
“Um, okay… And you wanted me?”
“Yes Dory! That’s exactly why I went through the trouble of getting you over here to have a sleepover with you! Because I wasn’t interested in you at all!”
Doris scowls and says, “Ouch!”
Bonbon trots around the bed as Doris sits up and rubs the back of her head with her forehoof. Bonbon looks up at Doris on the bed and says, “Sorry Dory, but you need to know that we do want you!”
“Okay Bonnie! I get it! Uh…”
Bonbon smiles and says, “Right! Two creams and no sugar, coming right up!” before beginning to trot towards the door.
Doris starts, “Oh, come on! This is literally day one!”
Bonbon giggles and says, “Some things just aren’t hard to figure out Dory!” shortly before reaching towards the knob with her right forehoof
Doris lowers her forehooves to her sides and says, “Okay, enough chit chat! Time is coffee!”
Bonbon snickers some more while turning the knob and says says, “Oh, of course!”
Doris gets out of bed as she says, “Well, since you’re already convinced that I’m a chronic coffee addict!”
Bonbon turns back as she opens the door and says, “Well, aren’t you?”
Doris frowns before saying, “Shut up!”
Doris then gets out of bed and trots to the door while muttering to herself, “Okay, apparently I’m spending the day with Bonbon!” while Bonbon is trotting to the kitchen.
Doris trots to the kitchen right as Bonbon is balancing two cups of coffee on her snout and trotting to the table. She sits one down on one side before saying, “Sit there, honey!” and then sets the other one down across from it.
Bonbon then trots back to the cabinet area with the four-slice toaster there and presses 4 slices of bread down as Doris sits on her end of the table. Doris mutters to herself, “Honey huh?”
Bonbon gets on her haunches in front of the toaster, “Alright babe! Just give me a few minutes!”
Doris calls back, “Okay Bonnie!”
Bonbon smiles as It soon pops and she takes each slice out with her forehooves and sets them on two plates, two per plate, side by side. Then she slides the butter open with her right forehoof and takes a knife in her teeth before using it to spread butter on all 4 slices of toast. She puts the knife down, looks back, and calls out, “Is raspberry jam okay Dory?”
“Sure Bonnie! That’s my favorite!”
Bonbon smiles as she grabs her other knife with her teeth, slides the jam jar to her with her right forehoof and pops it open with her left. Then she uses the knife to spread a nice layer of jam on each slice of toast and grabs one plate with her mouth and balances the other on her snout.
She smiles as she trots back to the kitchen this way as she says between her teeth, “Okay sweetie! Here it comes!” She gets to the table and sets her own plate down with her mouth before setting the snout plate in front of Doris. Then she sits at the other side of the table and smiles at her new love.
“Uh, thanks Bonnie!” Doris says before grabbing her precious blond elixir in her forehooves and gulping down a bit. She sets it down and says, “It’s pretty hot!”
Bonbon smiles once more and says, “Well gee Dory! It did just come out of the pot!” as she nuzzles Doris and giggles.
“Yeah… Hey! So, what did you want to do today Bonnie?”
“Well, I had something in mind for this afternoon, but I’ve got nothing for our morning together. Whatever you wanna do is fine Dory!”
“Huh…” Doris looks down and says, “Well, I usually just read and sip coffee on Saturday mornings?”
“Hmm… Well, we could head over to the go-kart track South of here. I like to ride them because it clears my head.”
Doris looks up at Bonbon with an interested expression, “I didn’t know there was a go-kart track in Ponyville?”
“It’s been there for about a year now Dory! Ponyville really isn’t that big! You don’t get out much do you?”
Doris grimaces as she says, “Well I don’t usually go to that area of town and there’s a lot of buildings over there!”
Bonbon smiles and says, “Yeah! And one big open area where the go-kart track is!”
Doris just sits in silence for a moment before saying in a lower tone, “You win this round Bonbon!”
Bonbon giggles and leans forward to kiss Doris and says, “Come on Dory! It’ll be fun!”
“Well it beats my regular schedule of “nothing” for the weekend? Sure Bonnie! Let’s go ride some go-karts!”
Bonbon nuzzles her again and says, “Atta girl!”
Doris picks up her toast with her forehooves and starts to munch on it. Bonbon sees this and start to do the same. Doris chases her toast with coffee before setting the cup down with her neck and asking, “So, when do they open?”
“Nine o’clock! It’s only 8:30 now and so we should be fine!”
Doris giggles and says, “Right, well we wouldn’t want to be late! I imagine they’d get upset?”
Bonbon giggles herself and says, “Okay! Got it! No rush!”
Doris takes another swig of her coffee and munches up the last of her toast in her forehooves before picking up the other slice.
Bonbon says, “Well it’s not like toast takes that long to eat?” before grabbing her other slice in her forehooves and chomping down on it.
“Eh, not usually?” Doris says before eating some of her toast.
Doris finishes her slice and Bonbon sees this before taking her last bite, chewing, and swallowing it. Then she leans over and kisses Doris on the lips and says, “I love you!”
“I uh, love you too Bonnie! But I uh…”
“Now Dory, I know a lot of this is new to you, so just relax okay?”
“Um…okay…”
Bonbon puts her right forehoof onto Doris’s left and says, “Do you need to talk baby?”
“Well yeah! I mean, I go from having nopony to love to there being two of you! Well, Lyra isn’t here right now, but still!”
“Doris?”
“Yes Bonbon?”
Bonbon looks into Doris’s green eyes as she strokes the fur of her forehoof with her own as she says, “Doris… I can’t describe the way I’ve felt about you, but…”
Doris widens her eyes and tightens her mouth as she asks, “But what?”
“But I know there’s something there… I wanted to be with you Doris…” Bonbon smiles, “I wanted to know you…”
Doris straightens her face and asks, “Is Lyra also gonna be this intense?”
Bonbon stops and pulls her forehooves back and crosses them while saying in a disgruntled tone, “What? I was just telling you how I feel!” before frowning at Doris.
“Oh!” Doris says before closing her eyes, “I am SO sorry Bonbon….” She opens her eyes before looking at Bonbon carefully for a moment… At that point, Doris realized what she had to say and so she said, “Bonbon… I’ll admit I was skeptical at first… But after your loving embrace last night and feeling you near me, I uh…” She looks down and then up as she says, “I’d rather not be without you right now…”
Bonbon smiles dimly and says, “I love you too Doris!”
Doris stretches her back on the chair and says, “So! Ready to take off Bonnie?”
Bonbon smiles and says, “Not quite!” before leaning over to kiss Doris on the lips and then smiling again as she says, “Now we can go!”
“Laying it on thick I see!” Doris says as she gets off the chair.
“Trying to be supportive!” Bonbon says as she gets off hers and scoots it under the table with her neck. She looks at Doris and asks, “Are you okay?”
“Oh yeah! Never been in a lesbian relationship and never been a three-way relationship! I’m not exactly cruising familiar territory here!”
“Oh gosh Dory! You’ve never loved a mare before? Well, how do you…”
Doris cuts her off and says, “I’ve watched a LOT of porn okay?”
Bonbon giggles and says, “Well yeah! When you’re alone, I guess you gotta…”
Doris cuts her off again and says, “Shut up!”
Bonbon giggles even harder as she stares at the floor while Doris grimaces at her.
“So um, are we doing this or are you just gonna laugh at what I do in my spare time?”
Bonbon looks up and says, “I’m sorry Dory! I really do love you uh, yes! Let’s go ride some go karts! We need to go ride go karts, right now!”*
The two ponies begin trotting away from Lyra and Bonbon’s house towards the go kart track to the South. Bonbon stops, looks up, and says, “It’s just over on the other side of that building there!” before pointing towards the bakery with her right forehoof.
“Oh, right! The big open area I never bothered to check out!”
Bonbon looks back at Doris, smiles, and says, “Well, you’ll never know what’s out there unless you take a look you know?”
“Well, I guess that’s right? Let’s go!”
Both ponies trot around the bakery and sure enough, Doris eventually sees a big track on the other side. Bonbon says, “Okay, we have to go to the office and pay to get our karts!”
Doris frowns and says, “Okay, where’s the office?”
“The big building on the right!”
“Oh uh, right! Let’s go!”
Both ponies trot to the main building on the right. Bonbon opens the door with her right forehoof and trots in with Doris behind her and Doris gets the door with her own right forehoof.
Doris is in the back of the office while Bonbon is talking to the red earth pony behind the counter. She then trots back to Doris and says, “Okay! We’re cleared for two karts! Let’s go!”
“Right” Doris says before turning to go out the track door on the far side of the office with Bonbon behind her. She looks at the expansive oval of the dirt track with a small concrete wall for the median. It’s surrounded with a bigger concrete wall. She imagines that’s to keep the karts from going off the track as she asks her new love, “Okay uh, where’s the karts?”
Bonbon says, “Over on your right Dory!”
Doris looks over to her right and sees a metal corral there with many go karts coming up on her right as she turns and begins to trot that direction. She turns to the corral and says, “So, any of these?”
While trotting near her right side, Bonbon says, “Any one you want!” before turning her neck to face the corral.
“Well, one is as good as the other?” Doris says before trotting to the kart on the far left and sitting on her haunches inside.
“Right!” Bonbon smiles before doing the same to the kart on Doris’s left.
Bonbon turns the key in the ignition with her right forehoof and hits the gas with her hind hoof before shouting “WAHOOO!!!!” as she takes off!
“Well, she probably doesn’t want me to just sit here while she rides her kart?” Doris mutters to herself before turning her own ignition and gently hitting the gas with her right hind hoof. The kart takes off quickly and Doris says, “WHOA!” It begins to stall when she suddenly lets off the gas before quickly hitting the gas again to get the machine running forward again. And then, she finally takes off!
Doris and Bonbon both fly around the track in their fast go karts.
They continue doing this for awhile before Doris suddenly feels something hit her kart from behind. She looks around and sees a smiling Bonbon there with a devious look in her eyes behind the wheel.
“Oh, hell no!” Doris mutters to herself as she turns back and slams the gas harder. She turns the wheel to bank off to the right side.
She tries to see back and gets slammed on her the left side of her kart from head on collision. This causes her kart to spin and she can make out Bonbon giggling each time she passes her field of vision. She hits the breaks to slow her vehicle to a more manageable speed before slamming the gas again and correcting her course with the wheel. She thinks to herself, “Well, she’s having fun? But this must not go unavenged!” Before turning her wheel to the left and circling around while riding the gas pedal hard with her hind leg.
She sees Bonbon’s car over on her right side as she circles the track and decides to get some revenge as she shunts the other kart with her own.
Doris can make out the earth pony giggling as she says, “Oh yeah?” before Bonbon’s kart curves slightly into Doris’s to shunt her. Doris can tell she’s holding back and that it’s all in good fun.
Doris smiles as she turns her wheel again to shunt Bonbon over on her right again before hitting the gas hard again with her forehoof.
Doris can make out a go kart engine approaching in her rear view before her machine stalls because it’s been hit from behind.
Doris looks behind and says, “I can go all day Bonnie!” before turning back and hitting the gas again with her hind hoof.
“Bring it!” She hears Bonbon shout from behind her.
The two ponies play like this for most of the morning before Bonbon finally drives her kart back to the corral. Doris sees this and cuts her wheel to the side to head there herself.
Doris disembarks from her kart once it’s parked in the corral. She trots over to the door and opens it with her forehoof to see a smiling Bonbon in the office. She trots into the office as she shuts the door and says, “Wow! I’ve never done that before Bonbon!”
“Yeah, that was great! Lyra never comes to the go kart track with me!”
Doris scrunches her mouth and asks her, “So is that why I’m here? Because you want to play on go-karts?”
“Doris! Knock it off already! We already said we wanted you and that’s really all there is to it! ALL of you, including the part that now likes go-karts!” Bonbon says as she smiles at Doris.
Doris starts, before trotting to her, smiling, and hugging her as she says, “I’m sorry Bonnie…”
Bonbon returns the hug and says, “It’s okay Dory… I know this is still new to you…”
“Years!”
Bonbon giggles and says, “Right! It’s been years for you… I understand…” before hugging Doris even tighter.
“Lots of porn!”
“Hush now Dory. It’s okay now. I got you…”
The two ponies break their embrace and Doris looks over and asks, “So, Bonnie! What’s next?”
“Well, that was a lot of fun, but why don’t we hit up the café again for some lunch?”
“Sounds good!” Doris says before she trots over to the door and opens it before trotting out.
Bonbon follows her and both ponies begin trotting East towards the café.
Doris says, “Okay, I just have to know… Of all the mares in town, why me?”
Bonbon looks at Doris trotting to her left and says, “Because you’re very sweet Doris. You have a wonderful smile that lights up the room. And I love your personality!”
“Well, how does Lyra feel about me?”
“I think she’s warming up to you Dory! I know I am!”
“Hmm, well there’s two of you! I guess I should just deal with one of you at a time?”
“Except when we’re all together!”
“Right! And then, TOTAL MAYHEM!”
Bonbon snickers and says, “Well, it’s not like we’re not all there for each other?”
“Right! But this is so weird for me!”
“Yeah I know! I’ve never done this before either, but I really did like you and wanted to try it out!”
“So, is that all I am to you Bonbon? An experiment?”
Bonbon stops trotting before Doris does the same. She looks at the indigo Pegasus and says, “Oh gosh, no Dory! I didn’t mean it like that!” She regains composure as the Pegasus straightens her stance, looks up at Doris, smiles, tilts her head to the left, and continues, “Since Lyra made it known to me that she was open to the idea of a third lover, we talked it over… I remembered seeing you during our weekly visits on Thursday… I remembered our witty conversations and I remembered your smile… I also remembered how sweet you were… I like you Doris!” before straightening her head.
Doris looks down and says, “Well uh, I kinda like you too Bonnie…” She looks back up and says, “And I do want to be with you…”
Bonbon frowns and asks, “So, what’s the problem?”
Doris looks down and says, “I-I’m sorry…”
Bonbon gets closer, puts her right forehoof under Doris’s chin to bring her face to hers and says, “It’s okay Dory…”
“You sure Bonnie?”
“Yeah, I mean, we kinda just threw you into this really, but we just didn’t know what else to do?”
Doris smiles dimly and says, “Yeah… I wouldn’t know how to start either. Uh, thanks Bonbon…”
“I love you Doris!” Bonbon says before slowly kissing the Pegasus mare.
After a moment, Bonbon pulls back from Doris’s face. Doris smiles, giggles, and says, “Yeah… Hey, I’m hungry! Let’s go eat!”
Bonbon looks at the Pegasus with a piercing glare as she asks, “You okay Doris?”
“Well, we’ve already been over how we’re all together last night and so I don’t think there’s anything left to talk about right now?”
Bonbon removes her forehoof to set it down as she says, “Okay Dory… But if you have any problems!”
“Yeah yeah! Talk to you and Lyra about it! I’ve been in a relationship before Bonnie!”
“Right! Well…”
Doris widens her eyes and says, “Well, let’s go eat before this gets even weirder!” **
“Right!” Bonbon says as she turns to start trotting towards the café to the distance on the left.
Doris sees this and turns to trot next to her.
The two ponies see the café building coming up. Doris trots up and opens the door before saying, “After you sweetie pumpkin pie!”
Bonbon giggles as she trots in and says, “Oh, now who’s laying it on thick?”
“Had to make you pay!” Doris says as she grins and walks into the restaurant
The two ponies sit down at the table on the far side of the restaurant. Doris looks into Bonbon’s eyes and says, “Look! I’m really sorry about what I said earlier….” She looks down. “I guess I’m just not used to being with somepony anymore?”
She feels a hoof move on top of her right forehoof and looks up to the yellow earth pony who owns it as Bonbon says in a sweet soft feminine voice, “It’s okay Dory… I was by myself for two years before meeting Lyra and learning love again… I understand….”
Doris opens her eyes and stares into Bonbon’s, “R-really Bonbon? You’ll forgive me?”
Bonbon softly nuzzles the Pegasus as she says, “It’s okay Dory… I know what it’s like and I’m here for you!”
Doris chuckles and says, “Wow! Uh, good thing I wasn’t with Lyra today!”
Bonbon giggles herself and says, “Don’t be so sure Dory! We were talking about you for weeks you know?”
“Am I really that interesting?”
Bonbon nuzzles her again and says, “Well, what if I said you are?”
“Huh?”
Just then, Bonbon sees a pink waitress with a yellow mane in a short bun and short flowing tail trotting over to their table with two menus in her unicorn magic. She says to the two mares, “Hi! I’m Abigail and I’ll be your waitress this afternoon! And what may I get the couple to drink?” before setting their menus down on either side and magically taking out a small pad and paper from the right side of her saddlebags over to her front.
Bonbon speaks up first, “I’ll have berry juice please! What do you want Dory?” as she looks over at the Pegasus.
Doris looks at Abigail and says, “Coffee, two creams!”
Abigail jots down a couple of things on the pad as she says, “Berry juice and blond coffee! Coming right up!” before putting the items away in her right pocket and trotting off towards the kitchen.
Doris looks back to Bonbon and asks her, “Well, the town knows you’re with Lyra, right? Won’t they start to say things if they see us kissing and nuzzling in a restaurant together?”
Bonbon smiles and says, “We also knew this would come up! Tell me something Doris, is it their lives we’re living?”
“Um, no?”
Bonbon’s brows furrow as she continues, “Exactly! We’re living our own lives!” Bonbon leans closer to Doris and nuzzles, “So let them talk if they like! I don’t care! I want my Dory!” And then softly kisses a wide-eyed and almost panic-stricken Doris.
Bonbon breaks and smiles at Doris as she exclaims, “You just don’t care, do you?”
Bonbon nuzzles Doris once more and says, “Nope!”
“Wow!” Doris says as Bonbon moves back.
Then, Abigail trots out of the kitchen while using her magic to hold a small tray with a coffee mug and a tall glass of red liquid on it. She gets to their table and sets the tray down in the center before saying, “And is the couple ready to order?”
Doris widens her eyes as she says, “Oh gosh! I hadn’t even looked at the menu!” as Abigail gets everypony’s drinks to their portions of the table.
Bonbon, still leaning to Doris, looks over at Abigail and says, “That’s fine! Bring us two hayloaf sandwiches! One for each of us please Abigail!”
Abigail jots down her order on the pad and puts it away in her saddlebag again before saying, “Two hayloaf sandwiches! Coming right up!” And then turns to trot away back to the kitchen area.
Doris looks back at Bonbon and says, “So I’m guessing those are good?”
Bonbon turns to nuzzle her again as she says, “Yup! I know you’ll like it baby!”
Doris smiles dimly as she says, “Okay darling… I trust you…”
Bonbon smiles and says, “There we go!” and kisses Doris, who can now only relax as she surrenders to love.
Bonbon breaks a moment later and Doris smiles and says, “This is weird though… I keep thinking about Lyra…”
Bonbon nuzzles her and says, “Her Dory-time comes tomorrow! We’ll see her later when we get back home though!”
“Dory-time? What the? Um…” Doris looks down as she says, “I guess I am special to both of you?”
“Well that was the idea you know?” Bonbon says as she tilts her head to the right. “Us, all being helpful and supportive of one another? Like a regular relationship, but with more directions! And…” she straightens her head and nuzzles Doris once more, “you need some extra help because you weren’t here earlier!”
Doris giggles nervously and says, “Um, sure!”
Then Bonbon sees Abigail coming out of the kitchen once more with a larger tray in her magical grasp. Bonbon straightens herself out to her chair as Doris does the same. Abigail trots to the table and sets the tray down in the center with two plates on it, each containing a juicy hayloaf sandwich and floats one to Doris and Bonbon’s fronts each with a distinctive blue glow. Doris sees a big, delicious sandwich there on her plate waiting for her!
Abigail then picks up the tray and floats it to her right side, while making sure to avoid Doris’s head as she says, “There you are! Enjoy your food!” before trotting away to the kitchen with the tray in her blue tow.
“Oh wow! This actually looks delicious!” Doris says.
“Yeah I know! You think maybe we should stop loving each other and eat now?”
Doris, already knowing what this means, just says, “Yeah probably? I mean, there’ll be time for more love later?”
Bonbon chuckles as she picks up her sandwich in her forehooves and says, “Of course Dory! Always!” and then takes a hearty bite.
Doris sees this and picks up her own sandwich with her forehooves to munch down on it.
It’s strange for Doris because whenever she looks at Bonbon, she’s always smiled at. At another point, she chances a nuzzle and Bonbon reciprocates by nuzzling her back and smiling. She tests the waters like this once more by choosing to give Bonbon a loving peck later after Bonbon had swallowed and this only seemed to elate the earth pony. Doris had trouble trusting other ponies, but by the time the meal was through, it became obvious to the Pegasus mare than Bonbon did love her and enjoy her company.
Doris sips her coffee and asks Bonbon, “So, what’s next?”
Bonbon giggles and sips her drink as she says, “I dunno Dory? I mean, we could always go back to our house and snuggle?”
Doris starts as she ponders on this a moment and then she says, “Well, maybe we can do something in town instead?”
Bonbon smiles and says, “Alright! Candy shop it is!”
Doris looks over at her, frowns, and says, “Really Bonbon? But you work there!”
“So? I like candy!”
“Well, I don’t know what else we could do?”
Bonbon then straightens her face and says mechanically, “You will go with me to the shop and eat candy!”
Doris widens her eyes and scrunches her mouth as she says, “I don’t really get a choice, do I?”
Bonbon smiles and giggles as she says, “Not if you’re with me, you don’t!”
Doris smiles back and says, “Well, your name is Bonbon!”
“Exactly!” Bonbon says as she gets off her chair to her left and scoots it back with her right forehoof. “Let’s pay and go!”
Doris gets off her chair to her right and scoots in her chair with her left forehoof and says, “Okay uh…”
Bonbon smiles as she gets two bits from her saddlebags and places them on the table. Then she says, “I’ll go get the check!” before trotting off to the front counter. Doris then stares at the table with two empty plates on it and two mostly empty drink glasses. She suddenly smiles to herself just thinking about Bonbon and the fun they just had there.
She starts out of it as she hears Bonbon near the door saying to her, “Come on Doris! Let’s go eat some candy!”
“Okay Bonnie!” Doris calls back as she gets off her chair and scoots it in with her right flank before trotting towards the door.
The two ponies begin trotting to the West towards the candy shop as Doris finally says, “Bonnie?”
Bonbon stops and looks at her as she says, “Yeah Dory?”
Doris stops and turns to face her and says, “I love you!”
“Is something wrong Dory?”
Doris smiles and says, “No… I think everything is alright now…”
“Well then let’s go! Time is candy!”
Doris snickers and says, “Oh of course!”
The two ponies make it to the candy shop and Bonbon opens the door on their left with her forehoof, bows, and says, “Would the lovely lady care to enter?”
“Ah! But of course!” Doris says as she trots inside.
She sees a large glass display case with many treats on two shelves on the right next to a counter on the other side. There’s also two tables, each with two chairs in the main shop area.
Bonbon trots in beside her on her left and confidently trots forward to the counter. The tan stallion behind the counter recognizes her and says, “Oh hey Bonnie! What’s going on?”
Doris trots just behind her to the counter on the right.
“Hey Mac! This is Doris! The one I was telling you about. Uh, get me some orange slices and some of those raspberry gummies!” She looks over and says, “So, what would you like Dory?”
Doris shrinks and says, “Well, millionaires is fine… And some of those chocolate covered almonds!” She looks at Bonbon and says, “If we’re gonna be together, you should probably know I like chocolate more than is legal!”
Bonbon giggles and says, “Good to know”
The stallion says, “Alright, you got it Bonnie! Go sit down at the table now and I’ll bring it to you!”
“Thanks Mac!” Bonbon says before trotting over to the table on the right side near Doris.
Doris sees her move and trots to the table herself before sliding out the chair, opposite to the counter, with her teeth and moving forward to sit there on her haunches.
Bonbon smiles and sits down herself this way.
“So, you told the ponies you work with that you were doing the three-way thing?”
Bonbon frowns and says, “Well, I kinda had to! I mean, they all know I’m with Lyra and if they saw me here with another pony, well…”
“So uh, they’re okay with it?”
Bonbon smiles and looks into Doris’s eyes as she says, “I dunno? Probably?”
“Wow!”
“What?”
“You’re not worried that they won’t accept you?”
Bonbon smiles and says, “Well, they already know I’m a lesbian?”
“Yeah, but we see lesbians all the time! Not too many three-way relationships though?”
“Hmm?” Bonbon says as she turns her eyes to the ceiling. “How about, you let me worry about explaining things to my coworkers alright?”
Doris smiles and says, “Sounds good to me!” as she sees Mac balancing two plates on his snout and trotting towards them.
He sets the plates down on the table to the side and says, “Alright ladies! Enjoy!” smiles and then turns to trot off. Mac disappears somewhere behind the counter and the earth and Pegasus mares are left alone together.
Bonbon smiles and decides to make the first moves as she leans over to nuzzle Doris and says, “I love you Dory!”
Doris smiles and says, “I love you too Bonnie…”
Bonbon gets some of the gummies with her forehooves and proceeds to cautiously munch on them before she looks over at Doris and says with her mouth still half full, “Try the raspberries with the almond chocolates Dory!”
“Um, okay Bonnie…” Doris says before she scoops up some of her chocolate covered almonds with her right forehoof and gets the raspberry gummies with her left. She says, “Okay! Here goes!” before putting the chocolate covered nuts in her mouth followed by the gummy candies. She munches down on an explosion of fruity nutty flavor in her mouth with chocolate overtones. She smiles at the delicious new flavor she had discovered.
“Good right?”
“Mhm!” Doris says with her mouth full of candy.
Bonbon nuzzles Doris and says, “I’m glad you like it baby!” before grabbing a millionaire with her right forehoof and biting into it with a smile on her face that just screamed “SEX!” to Doris. Doris couldn’t help but grin at this yellow earth pony enjoying her treats.
“Hey! Aren’t you gonna have a millionaire Dory?”
“I was getting there!” Doris exclaims as she reaches to the plate with the chocolatey treats on them and obtains one with her forehooves. She aggressively bites into the morsel as Bonbon stares and giggles softly at her.
Doris nuzzles Bonbon and smiles.
“This is great right?” Bonbon says before getting some orange slices in her forehooves and devouring some of them greedily.
“Yup! I don’t usually come here, except on Thursdays…”
“Well, sometimes, it’s fun to shake things up Dory!” Bonbon says as she smiles and chances another gentle peck on Doris’s lips.
“Yeah…” Doris can only smile at her new love for a moment before deciding to take another, less aggressive bit into her millionaire.
“Something on your mind baby?” Bonbon asks before she fetches some more orange slices with her right forehoof.”
“Yeah… Tell me something Bonnie… Where do you see our relationship going? I mean, all of us? What exactly do you want from me?”
Bonbon smiles and puts her left forehoof on Doris’s right as she says, “That’s simple baby… I want you… I want your love!”
Doris smiles and says, “I know that Bonnie, but…” she looks down.
“But what honey?”
Doris curves her mouth and says, “I just keep thinking that I’m probably gonna move in with you and Lyra later?”
Bonbon starts to laugh hysterically as the Pegasus can only stare on in silence. She composes herself a moment later and says, “Okay Dory! Now who’s moving too fast? Look! We’re here at the candy shop together and we have many yummy treats! Why don’t we just enjoy the here and now instead huh? We’ll worry about that when the time comes!”
Doris looks down and softly giggles as she says, “Yeah I think too much don’t I?”
“Yeah, you sure do! Look! I like you baby! Why ruin the present with thoughts of the future? Lets just have a good time!”
“Sounds good to me!” Doris says as she fetches some of the orange slices she had neglected earlier with her forehooves and eats some. She chews and swallows before saying, “Wow! These are really good! I’ve never had these before!”
“Well…trying new things is fun right?”
“A lot of times, sure!” Doris says as she smiles at the earth pony.
Bonbon then notices the time and says, “Oh dear! Hey Dory, uh, we gotta go! Lyra will be getting home soon!”
“Oh wow!” Doris exclaims.
Bonbon instinctively puts the candy away using her mouth and right saddlebag. Doris suddenly wonders if she stashes any “emergency candy” in there, but decides not to ask when she says, “Okay, that’s all of it! Let’s go!”
“Right!” Bonnie says before yelling, “Later Mac!”
Doris hears an inaudible shout coming from the back area as she gets off her chair and scoots it in with her neck. She trots to the door and Bonbon is also off her chair by this point and right behind her.
The two ponies then trot Northeast to Lyra and Bonbon’s house.
Bonbon says on the way, “I hope she’s not mad if we’re late?”
“Well uh, you were supposed to have a good time with me, right?”
“Yeah, I know that! But now I got two lovers to worry about!”
“Okay here’s an idea Bonnie! We’ll both be super affectionate if she’s already there! That way, she won’t think too much about how we’re late!”
Bonbon looks over at Doris and says, “Wow! You’re pretty devious Dory!”
Doris looks over and smiles back at her as she says, “And you’re not? You’ve been trying to get me to try new things all day!”
“Well of course! I want to show you what I enjoy and get to know you while I’m at it!”
Doris straightens her face and says, “Okay, that makes sense!”
The two ponies trot up to the cottage to see a green unicorn in front of them, using her magic to pull out a key from her saddlebags. Bonbon trots up first and says, “Oh hey Lyra!”
Lyra looks back at Bonbon and says, “Oh hey Bonnie!” She looks beyond the earth pony and says, “Hi Dory!” she looks down at Bonbon and asks her, “Did you two have a fun time while I was away?”
Bonbon smiles at Lyra and says, “Oh yeah! We rode go karts, had lunch, and got candy! Um, I did bring you back some of those orange slices, cause I know you like those so much! I hope you’re not mad at us for being back so late?”
Lyra smiles and nuzzles Bonbon as she says, “Not at all Bonnie Bear!”
Doris giggles from behind the earth pony as she says, “Wait! Bonnie Bear?”
Bonbon stops nuzzling Lyra, rolls her eyes, and says, “Yes! Bonnie Bear is Lyra’s pet name for me!”
Doris says, “Well, I guess that means I can call you that too?”
Lyra looks at Bonbon and says, “I don’t see why not? I mean, it’s not like there’s a rulebook for this sort of thing?”
Bonbon scrunches her mouth and says, “Still, I think that would be up to us? I mean, how comfortable am I being called THAT by a pony who’s not you right?”
Doris smiles and says, “Oh, Bonnie Bear! I’d like to love Lyra too you know?” before swishing her tail.
Lyra looks back down at Bonbon as she narrows her eyes and says, “I think the decision just got made for you?”
Bonbon closes her eyes and chuckles with a half grin as she says, “I think you’re right!”
Bonbon steps to the right so Doris can trot up to Lyra and lean forward to give her a good kiss before returning her neck to normal, smiling, and saying, “Hey baby! I missed you!” and then swishing her pink tail while smiling at the unicorn.
Lyra nuzzles Doris back and says, “Hiya Dory! I had a good day at choir practice! But my voice is sore now and I really wanna just relax!”
Then, Doris hears the voice of Bonbon say from over her shoulder, “Hey Dory! Wanna give me a hoof with making dinner tonight?”
Doris smiles and says, “You got it Bonnie!”
Lyra trots into the foyer and sits at the table, before looking to her right and using her magic to bring the newspaper there up to her face. The other two ponies trot towards the kitchen and Bonbon soon brings her a warm cup of tea from the kitchen and drops it from her snout onto the table near her as she looks at Lyra and says, “Here you go baby! Some warm tea to soothe your sore throat!”
Lyra leans over to smooch Bonbon before smiling and softly saying, “Thanks baby! You’re the best!”
Bonbon smiles and says whimsically, “No, you!”
“Jerk!” Lyra says before giggling.
Doris sees this and thinks to herself that she was enjoying that same pony earlier, just like Lyra is now. And then she pondered on how, for a brief moment, she too had enjoyed Lyra’s lips, just as Bonbon is right now. And then it became apparent to the Pegasus that while this is a more complex sort of relationship than what she had earlier, it really wasn’t beyond comprehension.
“Alright! Let’s go make dinner!” Bonbon proclaims after returning her neck to normal.
“You got it Bonnie!”
Both ponies trot into the kitchen area, starting with Doris and Bonbon a few hoofsteps behind her. Bonbon turns to Doris and asks her, “Hey Dory! Could you reach underneath the stove and get the perforated cooking pan and put it on the table please?”
“Of course, Bonnie Bear!” Doris says before trotting to the back of the kitchen and sliding out the bottom drawer of the stove with her mouth and then grasping the requested pan with her teeth.
She turns around and puts it on the table as Bonbon says, “Knock it off!” while trotting into the other side of the kitchen. She looks to Doris and says, “Set the oven to 325!” before getting out a long narrow cardboard box with a freshly browned oat cake on it and a large canister from the cabinet with her head, neck, and teeth to set on the table. She gets on her haunches and takes off the top of the canister with her right forehoof before using both to grab the box on the other side and tear it open, left to right it with her mouth. She looks over at the torn part, still on the box, smiles and then handles the box to pour four sheets onto the pan and arranges them in a square.
Bonbon looks to Doris and says, “Yeah we like boxes of oat cakes because they come in packs of four! Two for each of us! Well, I guess things are more complicated now?”
“Just take the last cake for lunch tomorrow Bonnie! Problem solved” Doris says as she smiles.
“Oh, well then!” Bonbon says as she takes the canister from the side in her forehooves and sprinkles it on the four cakes while saying, “Oat cakes with oatmeal sprinkled on top is good Dory! Gives the flavor a nice pop!” Then the oven beeps to indicate that it is preheated. Bonbon finishes sprinkling the cakes before setting the canister down to the left side and taking the tray in her mouth and trotting to the oven. She opens it with her right forehoof before stretching her neck closer to set the tray down on the rack inside. Then she corrects her neck before shutting it before looking at Doris and saying, “Yeah I know the directions say 12 to 14 minutes at 375! But about 18 minutes at 325 tastes a lot better! Trust me on this!”
“Wow Bonnie!”
“Well, candy isn’t my only talent you know?” Bonbon says before smiling.
“Hey, you think maybe we should go check on Lyra?”
“Way ahead of you!” Bonbon says as she turns to trot past Doris into the foyer from the kitchen.
Doris follows and they meet Lyra in the next room, still sitting at her chair, sipping tea, and reading the paper.
Bonbon smiles and says, “Hiya baby! Me and hayloaf here got dinner in the oven!”
Lyra smiles and says, “That’s good darling!”
Doris frowns and looks to Bonbon as she asks, “Uh, hayloaf?”
Bonbon looks back at her, grins, and says, “Well yeah! You’re the middle of the sandwich remember? The hayloaf between two slices…”
Doris squints her right eye and says, “It almost sounds sexual when you put it like that!”
Bonbon sneers even wider as she says, “Yeah I know! Isn’t it great?”
Lyra looks at Bonbon and says, “You’re horrible Bonnie!”
Bonbon smiles at Lyra and says, “You know you love me baby!”
“Yup!” Lyra says as she smiles and nuzzles Bonbon again.
Doris sees these lovers talking about something so stupid, and yet enjoying each other anyway. She sees how affectionate they are to each other and considers what they must mean to one another. She begins to wonder if she ever really had that before?
Then she starts as she hears Lyra saying loudly, “DORY! EQUESTRIA TO DORY! DO YOU COPY?”
“Oh uh, hey Lyra! What’s up?” Doris says before smiling.
Lyra squints her right eye as she asks, “You were looking kinda glazed over there, Dory! Are you alright?”
Doris looks down and says, “I’m sorry Lyra… I have a lot on my mind right now…”
Bonbon says, “Okay, you two hash that out! I gotta go get dinner ready…” before trotting from the foyer back to the kitchen.
Lyra looks at Doris and asks her, “Okay Dory, what’s up?”
Doris trots closer, looks at her, and replies, “Tell me something… How long have you been with Bonbon?”
“Oh, about six and a half years or so now? Why do you ask?”
“Because I keep wondering why I can’t have that? What is wrong with me?”
“Is this about your past? Do you need to talk about it?”
“Well, the only thing that does matter is that I wasn’t the right pony… So, I was shoved aside… This happened to me a few times and so I finally just gave up on love… Well, before you two showed up!”
Lyra giggles and says, “Well, don’t you want that? Here’s your chance!”
Doris frowns and asks, “You want me to make out with you, don’t you?”
“You act like you don’t want to?”
Doris frowns and says, “You know what? You’re both jerks!”
Lyra giggles softly as both ponies hear a feminine voice yell from the other room, “Dinner is ready!”
Lyra gets up and trots towards the kitchen area. Doris sees this and follows a few hoofsteps behind her.
Doris sees Bonbon sitting there smiling in front of a table with three plates neatly arranged at each of the chairs around it. She also notices that the oat cake on each plate is covered with chocolate syrup! She looks at Bonbon and says, “Bonbon! What did you do?”
Lyra snickers and looks back at Doris before saying, “Oh, she does things like that! You’d better get used to it!”
Bonbon says, “What? It’s good!”
Doris looks at her plate over on the other side of the earth pony and says, “Why not? This weekend seems to be all about trying new things! Let’s eat the funky chocolate oat cake!”
Lyra says, “Dory? Are you okay?”
Doris starts at Lyra and says, “I think so?”
Lyra looks at Doris with concern in her eyes as she asks, “What do you mean?”
“I mean, this is all so new to me… Both of you… And you’re here to love me? M-me? Really?”
Lyra smiles and starts to trot towards the Pegasus as she says, “Yes Doris… We’re both here for you…”
Bonbon says, “Doris, I just started learning to love you today and I don’t want to give that up…”
Lyra looks back at Bonbon and then back at Doris as she says, “Yes Doris… And my turn comes tomorrow… Both of us…”
Doris scrunches her mouth and says, “Okay… Let’s do this…”
Lyra tilts her head to the right and asks, “You’re okay?”
“Um, those weird cakes aren’t gonna eat themselves?”
Bonbon knows this is her cue! She grabs her cake in her forehooves and takes a hearty bite before smiling and squinting her eyes in pleasure for a moment.
Doris looks over at this and says, “That good huh?” before she trots to get into her chair to Bonbon’s left, grabs her dinner with her forehooves, and takes a bite herself… The flavor of the oats pops underneath the heavy veneer of chocolate on her palette and she finds the flavor surprisingly tasty! “This is really good!” she says before starting to eat her food faster.
Lyra sees the other two ponies eating and trots over to sit down on the other side of Bonbon. She grabs her own dinner with her magic, smiles, shakes her head, and then floats it over to take a bite herself. She chews it, swallows, and asks Doris, “So, how was she on the go-kart track? Not too rough I hope?”
“Oh, not at all! My little Bonnie Bear would never play too rough on the go-kart track! Isn’t that right dear?” She says while grinning at Bonbon.
“It’s not funny!” Bonbon says to a, now snickering Doris before looking at Lyra and saying, “Yes Lyra! We just banged our karts around a little bit! Nothing too bad! I had a blast though!”
“Oh yeah! I like riding go-karts with Bonnie! But uh, we don’t have anything yet do we Lyra?” Doris says before looking carefully at the green unicorn.
Lyra smiles and says, “Well, that’s why we wanted one-on-one time you know? I get my turn tomorrow!”
Doris frowns and says, “So uh, what did you have in mind Lyra?”
Lyra smiles and says, “How about a spa day and milkshakes later?”
Doris chuckles and says, “Really going all out I see?” before eating her oat cake some more and smiling at the green unicorn.
Lyra sighs and says, “Well uh, YEAH! We wanna make a good impression, right?”
Doris swallows and says, “Makes sense!” before eating the last of her oat cake.
Lyra smiles and eats the last of her cake too. By this point, Bonbon is already done and is sipping her drink while listening to the two lovers’ banter.
Lyra says to Doris, “So! What do you wanna do now?”
Doris starts and says, “I don’t know? I mean, what do you want to do Lyra?”
Lyra stares at the wall for a moment before looking back to Doris and saying loudly, “Charades it is!”
Bonbon quietly sets her drink down, looks at Doris, and says, “Yeah, charades is one of her favorite games to play!”
Doris looks at Bonbon and says, “No kidding?”
The three ponies walk back into the foyer from the kitchen, Bonbon up front, with Doris and Lyra side-by-side behind her. Bonbon sits on the couch and pads the cushion on her right with her forehoof as she says, “Come sit down with me Dory! Let’s see what Lyra has in mind this time!”
Doris sees this and changes course to the couch to go sit down where Bonbon padded. She looks up at Lyra, now standing in the center of the room and smiling at the two of them.
Lyra says, “Okay!” before looking over to her right at the shelf and floating a large brown bowl of cards to the coffee table in front of the couch.
Doris looks at Bonbon and says, “Wow! She really does like charades! You have the cards all ready and everything!”
Bonbon looks at Doris, frowns, and says, “Were you calling me a liar?”
Doris starts and says, “Oh gosh! No!”
Bonbon snickers and nuzzles Doris while saying, “I love messing with you!”
“Like Lyra said, jerk!”
Bonbon giggles at Doris while Lyra uses her magic to select a random card from the bowl and looks at it, she then looks at Doris and Bonbon and smiles.
Lyra magically sets the card, face-down on the table before putting her right forehoof with her right hind hoof, and does the same on her other side, before opening her muzzle and shutting it again while moving her head back and forth.
“Platypus!” Bonbon calls out.
Doris looks over at Bonbon and wonders where she got that before looking back over at Lyra and saying, “Camel!”
“Duck!” Bonbon calls out.
Lyra returns her forehooves to her front, straightens out her neck, and points to Bonbon with her left forehoof before saying, “That’s right! It’s a duck! You got it!”
Doris scrunches her mouth and says, “Um, okay! I haven’t played this game in a long time!”
Bonbon looks to Doris while Lyra magically takes out another card and looks and it, and says, “We don’t care if you’re good or not Dory! Besides, there’s only one way to get better!”
Doris smiles at the earth pony and says, “Right! Play the game!” before the they both look to the unicorn before the couch.
Lyra magically picks out a new card and looks at it before scrunching her mouth. Then, she puts her body down on the floor, with her forehooves splayed in front of her and her hind hooves the same behind her.
Bonbon smiles and says, “Floormat! That’s an easy one Lyra!”
Lyra gets up, smiles at the earth pony, and says, “Okay that’s two out of three! You’re up Bonnie!” before trotting over to the couch while Bonbon gets up and nuzzles her as she approaches.
Lyra then walks around Bonbon to the couch and sits next to Doris while Bonbon moves to the front and smiles back at the two on the couch. She gets on her haunches in front of the table and uses her right forehoof to select a random card from the bowl. She sees the card and puts it face-down on the table before standing on all fours and opening and shutting her muzzle quickly.
Lyra sees this and says, “Okay, it’s some kind of animal!”
“Giraffe!” Doris calls out to Bonbon at the front.
“Pig!” Lyra calls out.
“Vole!” Doris yells.
“Dog?” Lyra chances.
Bonbon looks at Lyra and says, “Got it baby!”
Lyra smiles, looks at Doris, and smiles as she says, “I knew we had it!”
Doris looks at Lyra and says, “Yeah!” as Bonbon picks out another card with her right forehoof and looks at it.
She then sets the card, face-down on the table, and then tentatively stands on her hind legs while putting her two forehooves at her side so that her body is almost straight up.
Lyra looks at this and says, “Spear?”
Doris calls out, “Pole!”
Bonbon goes back to all fours, and points to Doris with her right forehoof and says, “That’s it! You got it Dory!”
Doris smiles and says, “Okay, maybe this can be fun?”
Bonbon trots towards Doris on the couch and says, “Right! Well, those are my two rounds! You’re turn Dory!”
Doris looks at Lyra and says, “Do I have to?”
Lyra smiles at Doris and says, “Well, we’d like that, but not if you don’t want to Dory?”
Doris grimaces and says, “Great! Now I have to do it!”
Lyra starts and says, “What?”
Doris says, “Never mind! I love you baby!” before nuzzling Lyra and then moving to the floor and trotting up to the front of the couch after going around the coffee table.
Bonbon sees Doris there, nuzzles her, smiles, and says, “You’re up baby!”
Doris smiles and says, “Okay Bonnie! Go sit down…”
Bonbon trots towards the couch, goes around the table, and sits next to Lyra there on the couch.
She picks a paper out of the bowl with her right forehoof while facing the two ponies on the couch and looks at it. Then she places it face-down on the table before turning to her right and putting her forehoof up to her mouth and doing her best to make a chittering noise.
“Um, squirrel!” Bonbon calls out.
“Raccoon?” chances Lyra.
“Maybe a beaver?” guesses Bonbon.
Doris begins to scrunch her body back and hops forward with her hind legs.
At that point, Lyra yells out, “Bunny!”
Doris stops and points at Lyra with her right forehoof and says, “Right!”
Lyra smiles and says, “When you started chittering, I really didn’t know what to think, but after you hopped…”
Doris smiles and says, “Right! Because bunnies hop! Okay! Uh, I think I get another round?”
Bonbon says, “Whenever you’re ready Dory?”
“Right” Doris says before taking a couple of steps back to the bowl and picking out another paper with her right forehoof. She sees it and frowns. She places it face-down on the table, closes her eyes, takes a deep breath, and starts to prance around the table on all fours and rubbing against and nuzzling Lyra’s left hind hoof.
Lyra looks down and says, “I know that’s not a squirrel!”
“Cat!” shouts Bonbon.
Doris gets back up to her regular stance, looks at Bonbon, and says, “Right! Cat! You got it Bonnie!”
“Wow! That was great!” says Lyra.
Doris looks at Lyra, “Oh gosh! You really think so Lyra?”
Lyra looks at Doris, smiles, and says, “For a first time, sure!”
Doris frowns and asks Lyra, “How do you know this was my first-time playing charades?”
“Lucky guess!” Lyra wagers while smiling at Doris.
Bonbon then yawns and says, “Wow! That sure was a lot of fun Lyra, but after everything today, I’m pretty beat!”
Lyra looks over and nuzzles Bonbon before saying, “Yeah quire practice was kinda brutal today! I could go for some shut-eye myself!” She looks at Doris and says, “How about it, Dory? Wanna go to bed with us?”
“Oh, another lesbian snuggle fest! Could we?” Doris says whimsically as she widens her eyes and puts on the fakest grin Lyra has ever seen.
Bonbon giggles and says, “Oh, don’t act like you don’t love it Hayloaf!”
Doris smiles and says, “Oh, you know it Bonnie Bear!”
Bonbon snorts and says, “And the battle continues!” before softly giggling to herself.
The three ponies then trot into the bedroom. Lyra up front, followed by Bonbon, and finally Doris gets through the door before closing it with her right forehoof. She looks at Lyra and says, “So, how do you want to sleep tonight Lyra?”
Lyra looks at Doris and says, “Well, I kinda liked having you in front of me ready to be nuzzled and kissed. And the way you softly giggle in your sleep tells me you like it too!”
Doris looks at Lyra and says, “You like that huh?”
Bonbon says, “And yeah Dory! I really liked holding you from behind last night! At first, I thought your wings might be a problem, but after I got into bed with you and felt their soft fluffiness against me, honestly, I kinda liked it!”
Doris frowns and says, “So I’m the center again I take it?”
As Doris slumbered that night between the two lesbian ponies, she felt safe and warm between them. She began to think about her past and about how maybe that doesn’t even matter anymore? Sure, she wasn’t the right pony before, but these two crazy mares appear to think so? She began to wonder what is happening to her. But then, she had a startling realization… Lyra likes to nuzzle and kiss in bed while Bonbon prefers to hold somepony… Maybe she was the “missing part” all along?
Doris wakes up in the forehooves of a green pony. She feels the legs wrapped around her and embrace tighten as she tries to move away. She can tell this pony does not want to let her go!
She looks down and says, “Are you gonna keep holding me like this forever?”
“Until I’ve had my fill, yes…” A soft feminine voice says from behind her before the grasp tightens.
Doris sighs before giggling softly.
“I love you!” Says the voice from behind her.
“I love you too Lyra!”
Doris smiles while being lovingly embraced from behind by a green unicorn. They snuggle like this for a few more moments before Doris finally asks, “So uh, Lyra?”
“Yes Doris?” the sweet voice says from behind her as Doris feels her body caressed in the loving embrace.
“I need to go to the bathroom…” Doris somberly says.
Lyra giggles and says, “Okay baby!” before tightening her grip, “Hurry back!”
“Are you going to let me out?”
“Eventually!” Lyra says before giving Doris one more good squeeze and a nuzzle to the back of her neck and finally freeing her.
“Ugh!” Doris says before getting off the bed to her hooves. She turns and trots towards the door, opens it with her right forehoof, and trots out into the hallway.
Doris returns to the room later and the bed is neatly made. She looks around the room and doesn’t see Lyra anywhere., so she trots into the foyer area to see Lyra in the kitchen just beyond using her green magic to cook something in a pot on the stove.
Doris trots through the door to the kitchen and asks her, “What are you making?”
Lyra looks over at Doris and smiles while saying, “I’m making us some oatmeal for breakfast sweetie! Go sit down now! There’s already a cup of blond coffee on the table waiting on you!”
“Really thick!” Doris comments as she turns to trot towards the table. She pulls out a chair on the right side with her teeth and sits down in front a steaming cup of blond coffee there waiting on her. She grasps the mug in her forehooves and chances a tentative sip before grimacing and quietly saying to herself, “Still pretty hot! Needs a couple of minutes!”
Lyra soon trots in while holding two bowls and a spoon in her green magic and sets them down on the table. She looks down and magically slides Doris’s bowl to her before sliding the other bowl and the spoon right in front of her, to Doris’s left. She looks up and says, “Oh darn! I forgot my orange juice! I’m so scatterbrained! Hang on sweetie pumpkin pie!” And trotting to the kitchen in front of a bewildered Doris.
Doris softly whispers to herself, “Sweetie pumpkin pie?” as she scrunches her mouth and stares at nothing with wide blue eyes.
Lyra soon trots back in with a glass of orange juice in her magic and sets it down to the right of her bowl before trotting up to sit next to Doris.
Doris looks at her and says, “Hey, didn’t you want to go to the spa yesterday?”
“Yup! And I also wanted milkshakes! Do you like those Dory?”
“Oh yeah! The more chocolate, the better!” Doris says as she nods agreeably.
Lyra snickers a moment and says, “Good! I already added butter and sugar!” before magically grabbing the spoon and taking a cheerful bite of her food and smiling at the Pegasus as the spoon floats over to the left side of her face.
Doris sees this and says, “Guess it’s cool enough now?” before taking her bowl in her forehooves and munching on her food quietly. She looks at Lyra and says, “I’ve had oatmeal before, but this is different!”
“Oh yeah, I added cinnamon swirls and used brown sugar instead! Makes it good! Way better than that flavored nonsense you see at the market!”
“You’re a hooves-on kinda pony, aren’t you?” Doris says with an inquisitive look in her eyes.
“Yeah, I’ve been that way my whole life! Bonnie has her ways though, don’t you worry!”
“Oh, I’m sure!” Doris says before munching a bit more of her oatmeal and taking a swig of her coffee before smacking her lips and saying, “Almost cool enough!”
Lyra giggles and says, “Temperature testing dear?”
“Well, the oatmeal was easy because you went in first!”
“Right!” Lyra says before sipping her juice and smiling as she sets it down on her right and faces Doris.
“So, what time does the spa open?”
“10:30! But it’s only 9:30 now and so…” Lyra says with a dour look in her eyes as she faces the clock on the stove.
“I don’t usually sleep this late!”
Lyra smiles to the Pegasus, “Yeah, me neither! Snuggling sure makes it fun doesn’t it?”
Doris tilts her head to the right before leveling it and widening her eyes as she says, “Okay, you got me there! But tell me something Lyra…” She looks down, “How do you feel about me now that we’ve been snuggling and playing for a couple of days?”
Lyra smiles and says, “Oh gosh! You’re just so cute! And I knew this would come up!” Her mouth tightens, “Well, after what Bonnie said about you, I really wanted to try being with you…” She straightens herself out and looks to the Pegasus intently as she says in a slightly lower voice, “Bonbon doesn’t usually snuggle me… But I get that from you Doris… I get it and I like it!“ before lightly smiling once more.
“Wow!”
“And how do you feel about me?” Lyra says before lurching forward with an open-eyed stare.
“I uh, well…” Doris starts before looking down.
Lyra’s eyes grow wider as she lurches forward intently, “Well what sweetie?”
Doris decides this is her time to act and looks up at Lyra before putting her right forehoof onto Lyra’s left, “I really like being held by you Lyra…” and smiling dimly at the green unicorn.
Lyra giggles and says, “You like it a LOT don’t you Doris?”
Doris widens her eyes and says, “Well…”
“Oh, just admit it Dory! You love being held by me!” Lyra says before grinning brightly at the stuttering and blushing Pegasus as she knows she has her now!
Doris smiles faintly and looks off to her left, “Yeah…” She straightens out to the unicorn with an honest look in her eyes, “I like being held by you, a LOT, Lyra!”
“I’m glad!” Lyra says before smiling again and magically taking a couple of bites of oatmeal with her spoon before looking down.
“So uh, what then Lyra? Would you like to sleep like that from now on?”
Lyra looks at Doris while tilting her head to the right, “Well, um… Only if you want to Dory?”
Doris smiles, while still looking at Lyra and says, “Are we gonna do this all morning?”
Lyra adjusts her head, smiles, and says, “If that’s what you want darling?”
At that point, both ponies can only scrunch their eyes and giggle at how ludicrous they’re behaving!
Eventually, Doris shakes her head and grabs her bowl in her forehooves once more to begin munching on the rest of her oatmeal that way. Lyra notices and begins to eat her oatmeal with her spoon and magic once more.
Doris gets done first and sets her bowl down before asking Lyra, ”So, what time does Bonnie get home?”
Lyra takes one of the final bites of hers with her spoon and says, “Oh, around five or so! We have a long day ahead of us Dory!”
“What did you want to do tonight?”
Lyra smiles and says, “Well, we wanted to give you a big sendoff dinner at the Ponyville Café before you had to fly back to your home.”
Doris smiles and says, “Lyra?”
“Yes Dory?” Lyra asks with her eyes open and receptive.
“I’d like that!” Doris says before smiling brighter.
“Well, gosh! You okay Dory?”
“Oh, I’m fine Lyra! Uh, what time is it now?”
Lyra looks past Doris’s left again and says, “It’s about 10:11. Guess we should go now right?”
Doris smiles at the unicorn once more and says, “Sure Lyra!”
Doris and Lyra both trot East from Lyra and Bonbon’s cottage to the Ponyville Town Square.
Doris knows the spa is in the South end of the Square and she knows they will soon turn right to head that direction. She says, “So what did you wanna do at the spa Lyra?”
Lyra looks over at the Pegasus trotting on her right and says, “Well, I was gonna let you enjoy the spa while I relax in the bubble bath until you got back! I want my little Dory snookums to feel extra relaxed for our fun day together!”
Doris frowns while looking at this unicorn at her left and says, “You use pet names a lot, don’t you?”
“Mhm!” Lyra says while smiling.
“That’s also new!” Doris says before chuckling softly.
Lyra giggles herself and says, “I hope you don’t mind, sweetie weetie snookum peachy pie Dory bear!”
Doris giggles even more and says, “Okay, now you’re just being gratuitous!”
“Yup!” Lyra says before leaning forward to her right and chancing a nuzzle at the Pegasus, still trotting forward next to her.
Doris stops and starts as she feels the other pony’s muzzle touching her own and she instinctively lurches to her left to give Lyra some love of her own with a quick peck on the lips, before drawing back to smile at the green unicorn.
Both ponies stop and stare at each other as Lyra smiles and says, “I love you baby!”
Doris slowly feels a smile creeping up on her own face as she says, “I love you too Lyra!”
Lyra nods to her right and says, “Come on! We’re almost there! I want my Dory-loaf to get her massage already!”
Doris frowns and says, “Dory-loaf?”
Lyra snickers as she turns her body to face the Pegasus, “Well yeah! You’re not the hayloaf in the middle! You’re a Dory-loaf!”
Doris can only close her eyes and chuckle softly, “You’re also awful, Lyra!”
Lyra nods to her right and says, “Come on Dory-loaf! Relaxation awaits!” Before trotting South towards the spa.
Doris watches her before hurrying to trot next to her once more.
Both ponies soon reach the busy Market Square. Doris sees a street with shops on either side and many ponies trotting to and from them. She also notices a blue Pegasus flying overhead next to a pink one as she says, “It’s on the South end of the Square right?”
Lyra says, “Mhm! Right this way!” before trotting forward once more.
Doris follows close by and she sees many shops in buildings over to her left and many ponies walking around over there as she silently thinks to herself. Yesterday, she was with one pony and today, she’s with another… And it’s fine! Everypony is okay with this! What the hay?
She notices Lyra is starting to trot a few paces further than she when she hastens her trot to catch up.
Soon, she sees a blue building coming up on their left just past the next block and she knows that’s the Ponyville Spa, where Aloe and Lotus work.
Lyra trots through the door of the spa and trots in with Doris a few hoofsteps behind her. She trots up to the counter and says, “Hello Lotus! I’d like my usual hot tub bath and I’d like to buy a massage for my friend here!” to the indigo earth pony behind the counter with the pink mane and tail.
Doris looks over to Lyra and starts, “Oh gosh! A massage! You don’t have to…”
Lyra looks back and cuts her off as she says, “After what we’ve put you through over the last couple of days, it’s the least I could do!”
Doris frowns and replies, “Well uh… If you insist!”
Lyra smiles at Doris, “Good!” before looking back to Lotus.
Lotus smiles and uses her mouth to make a few notes in her book before spitting out the pen to the side and saying to Doris in her soft, feminine, and heavily accented voice, “Bulk Biceps is with another client! If you wait here, I’ll get Aloe to take care of you!” before trotting to the left around the desk and saying to Lyra, “Right this way!” as she passes.
Lyra watches her and nuzzles Doris to her left before trotting around her to follow Lotus to the door. Lotus opens it with her right forehoof and trots in while Lyra follows, and the door shuts behind.
Doris is left alone with her thoughts once more. She must admit, Lyra is a bit different from Bonbon! She’s more assertive and takes charge! But she also has a soft side to her that Doris just can’t ignore. She wonders where this day will take her when she hears a pink earth pony to her right with an indigo mane and tail say, with an accent of her own, and yet a slightly deeper tone, “Hello! My name is Aloe and I’ll be your masseuse today!”
Doris smiles at the earth pony and says, “Sure! Okay uh, where do we do this?”
Aloe smiles and says, “Right this way!” before turning to trot through the door behind her. Doris follows a few hoofsteps behind in the hall as Aloe continues, “We’re in room 3 on the back left side ma’am! Uh, what should I call you Miss?”
“Doris is fine” the Pegasus says as she trots further into the hall, behind the earth pony.
Aloe opens the door on their left and stands aside to the right for Doris to enter as she says, “Right in here Miss Doris!”
Doris trots in to see a large wooden massage table in the center of the room and a small wooden table off to the right with many oils and lotions on it. The walls appear to be made of ceramic tile and are a pink color that’s been decorated with a floral wallpaper. Flower, plants, trees, and birds all adorn the wall and she can tell this is meant to relax the clients.
Doris frowns and says, “So uh, how do you want me on the table Aloe?”
Aloe smiles and says, “Just lay on your stomach with your legs to your side Doris. Keep your wings to your side and we’ll be sure to work on those as well when I rub you down.”
“Okay!” Doris says before trotting towards the table away from the door they entered and getting onto it, her forelegs first and then she scootches herself forward enough to get her back legs on as well. She stretches out her wings to form a “Pegasus crest” before rotating them several times and then bringing them in to her sides.
Aloe trots over to the table and looks at it carefully before grabbing a specific bottle with her teeth. As she trots back, she murmurs to Doris, “This is olive oil. I always rub my patient down with it first as it has soothing properties.” She gets to her hind legs at the table and uses her mouth to precisely squirt some of the oil onto her left forehoof and then rubbing Doris’s back with it.
Doris says in a slightly louder tone, “Oh my! That feels wonderful Aloe!”
Aloe precisely puts the bottle down on the left side of the table, before rubbing her forehooves together for another go at Doris’s back. She applies pressure with her hooves to Doris’s spine and both ponies here an oddly satisfying “crack” as Aloe begins her work on the Pegasus mare.
“That’s lovely Aloe! Ugh! I gotta admit, I’ve had a lot on my mind recently…”
“Oh?” Aloe inquires as she rubs further down Doris’s back.
“Yeah! It’s just that, well… You don’t tell anypony what’s talked about on this table, right?”
Aloe chuckles and says, “Of course not!” before she applies pressure to Doris’s sides with both forehooves, away from her spine.
Doris stammers out, “Ah, well yes! Of course! Uh, you know the lesbian couple over on the West side of town. Lyra and Bonbon?”
“Indeed! They come in every other week usually. I saw Lyra with Lotus earlier, but I did not see Bonbon with them.”
Doris sighs and says, “That’s because Bonbon isn’t with Lyra… She’s with me… And I’m on a date with her…”
“WHAT!?” Aloe exclaims as she abruptly stops rubbing Doris’s back and sets both forehooves on the table.
“Shh! Lyra is still very much in love with Bonbon! It’s just that well, I think she likes me now too?”
Aloe looks down and sighs, “I uh, I see… This is known as an “un trois voies” or a “menage et trois!” in the old country… You are in a three-way relationship now Doris!”
“I… I know Aloe…”
“Well, was there something about it on your mind Doris?” Aloe says before setting her forehooves to the ground, trotting back to her table, and grabbing another bottle with her mouth.
“Well actually, um… I love both of them…”
“So, what’s the problem?” Aloe murmurs out from her teeth before setting the bottle down on the table.
“Well, gosh! I mean, a three-way relationship. M-me? Really?”
Aloe smiles as she squeezes the new bottle between her forehooves and carefully grasps the resulting liquid at the top in between them before saying, “Why not Doris? You seem nice enough to me?” and rubbing her hooves together once more to saturate them with lotion.
“Well, why not? They both seem genuine and nice to me? I still think they’re out of their minds though!”
Aloe giggles softly as she begins to rub the Pegasus’s upper back with lotion and says, “Love is like that! It’s always crazy! Never sane!”
Doris closes her eyes as relaxation settles in from her back as she says, “It is huh? It’s been so long… Did I just forget that?”
“Well perhaps Doris? But know this! I envy you now!” Aloe says before beginning to rub the Doris’s lower back.
“WHAT?” Doris says as she widens both of her eyes.
“Sure! I don’t have anypony in my life right now! Just my roommate Lotus. And here you are, not just one lover, but two! You are indeed very lucky Miss Doris!”
*Ugh!” Doris starts as Aloe begins to rub lotion on her wings before saying, “I uh, never really thought about it like that Aloe!”
Aloe lifts Doris’s right wing with her forehooves and starts rubbing it, “It is often that we don’t know what it is we truly have until somepony else points it out to us!”
“Um, that’s actually a good point Aloe… Oh yes! Keep rubbing my wing on the underside like that!”
Aloe chuckles, “Yes, I noticed that Pegasi love being rubbed on the underside of their wings! It’s their sweet spot!” before leaning forward to get Doris’s other wing, “So tell me, they seem to love you and you love them yes? I still don’t see why this would disturb you?”
“I just don’t know if I’m really ready to commit. I mean, what if I get hurt again you know?”
Aloe rubs the underside of Doris’s wing, “The jitters! Yes, that is very common when one starts to date again.”
“But why now?”
“What better time Doris?” Aloe says before rubbing her hooves deeper into Doris’s feathers.
“Well, how about when I’m ready?” Doris says in a slightly louder voice.
“And when would that be?” The pink earth pony says as she begins to spread lotion across the other mare’s back.
“I uh…” Doris closes her eyes, “I don’t know Aloe…”
“Doris…” Aloe says as she begins to rub the lotion down the sides of Doris’s back, “There is no right time for love… It does not negotiate, nor does it allow compromise… It simply happens when it happens, and it is what it is…”
Aloe drops back to her hooves on the ground from the table as Doris, now a comfortable “puddle” on the table, can only stammer out, “So it happens whenever it happens, and I just have to deal with it huh?”
“Yes Doris! Nopony can really decide…” Aloe says before smiling at the Pegasus, who’s now moving slowly to the left side of the table away from her.
Doris finds footing on the ground before trotting around the table away from the door to the pink pony and saying, “Thank you very much Aloe! Both for the massage and the sage advice!” before fetching four bits with her forehoof from her right saddlebag and handing it to Aloe.
“Ah yes! Anytime Miss Doris! Hopefully, I will see you again yes?” Aloe says before grasping the four bits with her teeth and trotting over to the table to set them all down there.
Aloe looks to Doris, who now makes a mental note and smiles as she says, “Sure thing Aloe!”
Lyra leans back in the hot tub as bubbles rise around her and the steam arises from the bath. She closes her eyes as her equine body begins to feel the soothing bubbles rising out of the water.
Doris slowly trots in on the wooden floor and looks over to the unicorn in the hot tub on the right side of the room. There is a hot tub on the other end with nopony in it and the Pegasus and unicorn are both alone.
Lyra starts and opens her eyes to the Pegasus, “Hiya baby! How was your massage?”
Doris trots to the hot tub containing the unicorn on wobbly legs as she says, “It was VERY relaxing baby! Thank you so much!”
“Oh no problem Dory! Come on in! The water’s great!”
Doris smiles and says, “Okay uh, hang on!” before trotting closer and timidly putting her hoof into the water to test it.
Lyra rolls her eyes and says, “You know, the best way to do this, is to just bucking do it right?”
Doris looks at the green pony, “Oh um, right!” before slowly trotting into the hot tub to join her and taking a spot just to the right of her towards the far side of the room.
Lyra chances a nuzzle, “Everything okay baby?”
Doris smiles and says, “Yeah… I think I’m okay now?”
“That’s good!” Lyra says before smiling.
“Yeah…”
Lyra thinks to herself that this can either get more awkward or she can show affection. She makes her decision when she nuzzles Doris slowly before tilting her head to the right on approach for a soft, warm kiss. She moves back and faces the Pegasus before saying, “I want you to be happy Doris…”
“I-I am happy Lyra…”
Lyra moves her body closer to the Pegasus as she smooches her once more on the lips.
Doris starts at this advance and moves back slightly.
“You okay Dory?” Lyra asks with a worried look in her eyes.
“I uh, yeah….” Doris says before nuzzling Lyra once more… “I’m okay…”
Lyra levels her eyes and kisses Doris slowly and passionately on the lips for a moment before drawing back.
“AAH!” Doris says as she starts.
Lyra gets closer and kisses Doris again, softer this time.
Doris’s eyes widen to this romantic assault as her body freezes.
Lyra softly kisses Doris for another moment before drawing back and smiling, “I love you Doris!”
“I…I…I…”
“Shh!” Lyra starts as she puts her right forehoof over Doris’s mouth before whispering, “Don’t ruin the moment my sweet…” And then lowering her hoof to nuzzle the indigo pony, and then tilting her head to the left for yet another soft, loving kiss.
Doris returns the kiss and smiles at the unicorn as she says, “You’re very aggressive Lyra!”
“I know what I want!” The green unicorn says before kissing Doris again, softly, and sensually.
Later, in Lyra and Bonbon’s cottage, Doris stares at the green unicorn on the other side of the bed. “Lyra?” she sheepishly asks.
Lyra looks over to Doris on the right side, “Yes sweetness?”
Doris looks down before saying in a lower voice, “We just had sex, didn’t we?”
“Indeed!”
Doris looks up to her, “Is this what you wanted?”
Lyra smiles, “Yes…”
“Okay, we’re gonna eat lunch soon… But we’re gonna talk about this first!”
