My Time in Equestria
Chapter 13: 13. Hangovers and Panties
Previous Chapter Next ChapterI looked around for Rainbow Dash until I found her already above Ponyville and still flying. I quickly caught up to her and we started talking.
"I thought you were going to wait up for me." I said as we flew side by side.
"This is me waiting up for you. I just fly fast is all." She said with a smile.
I playfully rolled my eyes. "Sure, whatever." We continued flying until we finally got to Dash's house. She opened the door and we walked in. I didn't realize just how tired I was until I rested my hooves on the plush floor of the house. Apparently Dash felt the same because she gave a large yawn.
"You tired?" I asked her.
"A little." She said. "What about you?"
"A lot." I yawned. "I think I'm gonna hit the hay."
I started heading toward the couch when Rainbow Dash stopped me.
"You know, if you don't want to sleep on the couch anymore, we could share my bed. There's plenty of room." She said.
I stopped in my tracks and thought about that for a moment.
Oh god, I hope this doesn't go where I think it's going.
"Uh, sure. That would be nice." I smiled, but was secretly worrying. Maybe it's just nothing. Maybe she just wants me to because we're dating now and I guess it wouldn't be right for me to sleep on the couch.
Dash gave a cute smile. "Alright then. I guess you've never really seen the inside of my room before. Come on, I'll show you." She started walking and I followed her down the hall until we got to her room. She opened the door and I stepped inside.
To my right was a bed made of some kind of cloud with a night stand next to it. Oh god, that's gotta be comfortable. I thought. Directly to my left was a wall with a door on it that I guessed led to a closet. In front of me was a wall with a giant window that overlooked Ponyville.
"What do you think?" She asked.
"It's nice. Better than the room I used to have where I lived." I said. It wasn't far from the truth at all. My old room sucked. I walked over to the window and looked out over Ponyville. The small town was lit with street lights and it looked amazing at night. Rainbow Dash walked next to me and looked out the window as well.
"I love the way Ponyville looks at night." Dash said. "It's so peaceful and quiet."
I looked at her. "I thought you liked awesome and loud."
"Yeah, but it's nice to just slow down every once and a while and just enjoy the scenery."
"I know what you mean." I said. We stood there for a few more moments until Rainbow Dash finally walked over to the bed.
"I don't know about you, but I'm exhausted." She said.
"Me too." I said, and walked over to the other side of the bed and sat down on it. I instantly lay down as soon as I felt the incredible softness of the cloud bed.
Dash giggled when she saw me collapse on the bed. "Comfortable?"
"This is the softest thing I have ever laid on ever." I said.
Dash smiled and lay down on her side of the bed. I looked over at her and she looked at me.
"I had a lot of fun with you today." Rainbow Dash said.
"I did too." I said.
"Can I tell you something?" She asked.
"You can tell me anything." I said.
"Well, when I went to Twilight's earlier, it was because I wanted advice on what to do on a date."
I grinned. "So this was a date?"
"Yeah. I really like you and I didn't want to ruin my chance, so I asked her."
"Well, you know, I kind of did the same thing." I said.
"Really?"
"Yeah. Remember when you asked if I knew the waiter? He was one of my friends that I asked to help me out because I thought this was a date."
We both smiled and we shared a brief kiss. When we pulled away, Dash closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep with a peaceful smile on her face. I watched her for a few moments until I decided to close my eyes and go to sleep as well.
So right now, I just got back from a date with Rainbow Dash, and now I'm sleeping next to her. Check that off my bucket list.
I lay there and thought about the day's events until I finally felt the warm grasp of sleep overtake me.
I awoke the next morning in the soft bed alone. Rainbow Dash must have already woken up and gone to the living room. I stretched and let out a small groan. I sat up in the bed and noticed that my wings were a little sore from the day before, but they didn't hurt as bad as before. I got out of the bed and stretched again and finally made my way into the living room.
I walked in to see Rainbow Dash eating something at the kitchen counter. She turned around to see me and gave me a smile. "Hey, sunshine. How'd you sleep?"
"Like a baby." I said.
She let out a small laugh and handed me a plate of hay. "I made you this. I figured you'd be hungry."
"Thanks, Dash." I said as I took the plate and started eating. She was right, I was starving. I walked over to her and we happily ate together and talked about our plans for the day.
"I think I'm going to go hang out with a few friends until it's time to clear the sky." I said.
"That's what I was planning on doing. I made plans with Applejack for today. After we clear the sky would you want to do something with me?" Dash asked.
I smiled. "Like what?"
"I don't know, we can probably come up with something before then."
"Well then I'd love to." I said.
Rainbow Dash smiled. "Great."
We continued eating until our plates were clean, and we put them away.
"I should probably get going." Dash said as we walked over to the front door. "I'll see you when we clear the sky."
I gave her quick kiss on the cheek. "See you later, Dash."
She blushed heavily and smiled. "See you later." And with that, she took off into the sky toward Ponyville. She flew into the middle of the small town and then out of sight.
Well I guess I could go see if Blaze and Spark are free for a bit. I thought, and walked on the front step of the house and closed the door. I hope I can fly. I stretched out my wings and flapped them a few times until they didn't hurt as bad, and I ascended into the air and flew toward Ponyville.
As I soared above Ponyville, I searched for the poorly put together wooden shack that Blaze and Spark called home. It wasn't that hard to spot, considering it stood out significantly among all the other houses. I slowly flew toward the "house" until I landed at the front door. I knocked at the door and heard Spark yell, "Yeah, yeah, hold your horses! See what I did there, Blaze?"
A moment later, I was greeted by Spark.
"Hey, Flash! How's it going, dude?" He said. His hair was incredibly messy and his bloodshot eyes were squinting at the sunlight.
"Um, I'm good. What's wrong with you?" I asked.
"Ah, nothing. I'm just a little hungover."
"Hungover? As in-?"
"Booze." Spark said with a smile. "I found out how to make booze last night. It turns out you don't need bloody entrails from innocent bunnies to make it."
I paused for a few moments. "Um...okay then. Can I come in?"
"Sure, come on in!" Spark said, and opened the door for me. I walked in to see Blaze sitting at the table and eating a bowl of oats. He looked to be in the same condition as Spark.
"Hey, Flash." Blaze said quietly, and instantly rubbed his temples with his hooves.
"Blaze here drank more than me." Spark said. "I never took him as the drinking type."
"I didn't either." Blaze said as he rubbed his temples more.
I looked at the both of them in their poor conditions.
"You two are dumbasses." I said.
"Yeah, I gotta admit, not the best decision I've made." Spark said.
"I don't suppose you guys would want to hang out for a bit then?" I asked.
"Are you fucking kidding? Of course I do!" Spark said.
"Don't be so loud, Spark!" Blaze said.
Spark turned to Blaze. "Ah, quit bein' a pussy." He turned back to me. "C'mon man, what're we waiting for, fucking Chinese new year or something? Let's go!" He practically shoved me out the door. "See ya, Blaze!" He yelled, and slammed the door behind him. He immediately fell to the ground and pounded his head. "GODDAMMIT!!!" He yelled and pounded his head more.
I looked down at him. "Are you sure you're ready to go?"
He tried to tell me something but violently vomited halfway through the sentence. Spark slowly got up to his feet and put his hoof on my shoulder. "Never. Fucking. Let me drink. Ever. Again. EVER." He said.
"Will do." I said as he wiped his mouth.
"Now, if we're gonna do anything, I need to get some motherfucking sunglasses." Spark said.
I looked at the sky. "But the sun isn't even-"
"LOOK, FUCKFACE, YOUR PUSSY ASS HAS NEVER HAD A HANGOVER, YOU DON'T KNOW HOW FUCKING PAINFUL THIS IS!!! GIVE ME SOME MOTHERFUCKING SUNGLASSES!!!" Spark yelled, and immediately cursed at himself as he pounded his temples.
"Alright, alright, I'll get you some sunglasses." I said. We walked through town. Spark had his eyes squinting the entire time. "Where would we even find sunglasses?" I asked.
"I don't fuckin' know." Spark said.
I sighed. Spark is being a little too irritable. We walked through Ponyville with no luck of finding any sort of sunglasses.
Are sunglasses even a thing in Equestria? Do they even exist? I asked myself. Wait a second, Rainbow Dash probably has some!
I turned to Spark. "Stay here, I'll be right back."
"Fuck you."
And with that loving comment, I flew off toward Dash's house as fast as I could. I don't even think doing all of this is worth it. Spark will probably just curse and complain about how bad hangovers are. I arrived at the front door and walked in.
She probably has some sunglasses in her room. I walked down the hall and into the bedroom. I looked around but saw nothing. Well what now? I walked over to her nightstand and opened the top drawer. A frown grew across my face as I held up a small article of clothing.
What. The. Hell. In my hooves was a small pair of rainbow colored pony panties. Do ponies even..? Why would she..? What? I shook my head and tossed the panties to the side as I continued to look for the sunglasses. Two drawers and several questionable articles of clothing later, I found Dash's sunglasses. I put them on the bed and tried my best to put everything back as it was. I closed the drawers and got the glasses. I better get these back to Spark before he freaks out. I walked out of the bedroom and out of the house as fast as possible back toward Ponyville.
I flew back to the spot where I last left Spark to see him arguing with a pony selling some food at a stall.
"WELL LISTEN HERE, FAGGOT, I DON'T WANNA HAVE TO BEAT YOUR ASS OVER A FUCKING APPLE!" He yelled.
"I'm sorry sir, but it's two bits." The pony said.
"ONE BIT, MOTHERFUCKER! ONE BIT IS ALL MY POOR ASS CAN AFFORD! JUST GIVE ME THE GODDAMN APPLE!"
I quickly flew down and broke them up. I shoved the sunglasses in Spark's face and talked to the stallion working the stall.
"I'm sorry sir. My friend is a little...irritable right now-"
"Damn right I am! Motherfucker won't give me an apple!"
"-but is there any way he can have the apple for half price? He's been through some troubles lately and he doesn't have any money."
The stallion thought for a bit and finally said, "Alright, but just this once. Any other time, he has to pay full price."
"Of course." I said, and he gave me the apple for Spark's bit. "Thank you." I said.
"Whatever." The stallion said, and we walked away. I turned to Spark, who was happily eating the apple with the sunglasses on.
"You know, I'm not even hungry." Spark said.
"What!? Then why did you start that huge argument?" I asked.
He shrugged. "For the lulz."
I shook my head. "Well I hope you enjoy those sunglasses. I had to search through pony panties to get them."
Spark spit out the piece of apple he was chewing. "No shit? Dude, you should fucking thank me for that."
"Why? Why would I thank you for making me touch pony panties?" I asked.
"Now just think about that sentence for a minute, Flash. Why would you not thank me for putting you in a situation where you go through a stash of your girlfriend's underwear?" Spark said.
"But it's pony panties though. Ponies don't even wear panties." I said.
"Well, you never know. Some of them could have certain fetishes..."
"No no no no no, shutup." I said. "I refuse to think about that."
Spark laughed and took another bite of his apple. "Alright then, just don't be surprised when it finally happens and you're just like 'oh shit'."
I shook my head, then I realized that we just walked in a circle back to Spark's house.
"Uh, why are we here?" I asked.
"Are you fucking kidding? I'm in no shape to go out in public." Spark pointed to the pool of vomit beside the door. "You see that shit? That's like my entire insides right there. I'm staying home for the rest of the day. I only came with you to waste your time." He walked into the house and handed me the sunglasses. "Thanks for these though, it helped in the 2 fucking minutes I had them. See ya later, fagstick." He closed the door and I was left standing with sunglasses and a pile of vomit.
Well that sure was a good beginning to my day. I thought, and slowly walked into Ponyville. At least clearing the sky with Dash will make me feel better.
