The silence that came after the storm died down was so intense that AJ woke up startled. The warm body on his lower half stirred and started to rub his coat as she came to.

“You’re comfy.” Spines mumbled in a loving voice.

“Thanks,” AJ said through a laugh. “Bu ya ganna get a kink in ya neck if we stay like this. Let me take you to bed.”

“Will you tuck me in?” Spines ask with her eyes still closed.

AJ found the sentiment very cute and got up with her still on her back. As he made his way up the stairs to the geust room Spines climbed to the center of his back and wrap her arms around his neck.

AJ rolled her off him and onto the bed. He grabed the blanket with his teeth and brought it up to her, just under her chin. As he pulled away he felt a tug on his mane.

Spines had a lock of his hair in her grasp. Before he knew what was happening he was pulled back down to her and their lips locked.

“Well that was pleasant, sunflower,” AJ said as he pulled away from the very welcomed surprise. “bu ah thought you were tired.”

“I am,” Spines answered while giving him a sultry look. “But that’s not why I wanted to go to bed.”

Spines tugged on his mane again this time AJ was pulled into the crevasse of her neck. Without even a thought he started kissing her; tenderly biting from time to time.

As her body heated up, Spines hugged his head and ran her claws through his mane.

AJ kissed his way down to her stomach; the intense heat from the folds between her legs licked the bottom of his jaw as he got closer to it.

Spines felt spider webs of goose bumps spread from each point that he kissed; her heart pounding harder and harder as he slid down to her lower reaches.

AJ reached his goal and his tongue slid between her folds.

Lightening shot through Spines body, lurching her hips up. She took in a sharp breath of air as the new sensation surprised her. She instinctively grabbed his ears with her claws.

Spines reaction pumped vigor into AJ causing him dig deeper into her folds; his tongue running circles around her sensitive regions.

Spines gave into everything and lost control of her body; she began rocking her hips in back and forth as his tongue explored the unknown reaches of her body.

Moans and gasps started flying out of her as both of their movements became intense and wild. Spines wrapped her legs around AJ’s head, pushing him further into her.

A sudden and uncontrolled jerk of her body surprised her as a tightening sensation swelled up from within her body. It grew and grew till it burst like a balloon in her groan and spread something of no description across her body.

A high pitch yet soft squeal hissed between her fangs as the sensation faded.

Euphoria and a sense of satisfaction followed as Spines caught up with her breathing.

She could feel AJ start back up her, kissing her belly as he went. Spines placed her claws on his head again, letting them run through his blond mane as he rose higher and higher up her quivering body.

“This feels better than I thought it would.” she said between batted breathes.

AJ stopped kissing.

Without moving, his lips just a hair above her skin.

“Is this your first time?” he asked

Spines giggled a little bit before answering. “This is my first time even being kissed.”

AJ kissed her skin one more time and started to climb off.

“Wait,” Spines said as she reached out to him. “Isn’t there more?”

“There is, sunflower.” he confessed as he tucked her into bed. “But there are some things a good stallion doesn't do till a mare is ready.”

He left the room and blew out the lamp before Spines could protest further. She couldn’t put up much of a fight anyways, a sense of fatigue was overtaking her and she soon dosed off.

Hardly an hour went be as Spines slowly woke up. Vivid images of what AJ did to her danced in her head. She rolled over and squeezed her pillow, hoping to force them out of her head and sleep.

Through frustrated grunts and mumbles, Spines tossed and turn in the bed. Giving up, she laid on her back staring at the ceiling. As her mind sunk into the folds of recent events, her claw absentmindedly found its way between her thighs.

Her claw became moist as it found the sensitive bulge that was once the focus of AJ’s tongue. Similar sensations came over her as she explored herself, but it was nowhere near the intensity that AJ had brought to her.

Spines went back to tossing and turning after she pulled her claw away from herself.

She just felt like something was missing. Like she was trying to sleep without a blanket; part of her knew what it was.

“Ugh, that’s it!” she said in the dark as she got out of bed.

She silently stomped to AJ’s room.

Careful not to make any noise, Spines made her way into his room and carefully slid up next to the massive stallion. There was just enough of his pillow for Spines to lay her head on.

The young dragoness become content and before she could think about it…she fell asleep.

The sun shined through AJ’s window, softly waking up Spines as it creped across her face.

Spines felt the heat of AJ underbelly press against her back; one of his fore hoofs was sprawled across her and under her arm.

Spines looked over at him to see if he was still asleep.

I'm going to make him breakfast! She thought to herself as she climbed out of bed.

Her attempt was thwarted when something warm and fleshy pressed against her belly.

Spines looked down under the blankets, thinking she got herself tangled in her tail again. What she saw turned her red.

AJ’s member was looking straight at her; he was not only a large pony but also…very proportional. His manhood stretched from him, went between her legs, and rested its tip at the top of her belly.

At first Spines was scared of it, feeling thankful that they didn’t takes things to the next level last night.

Now, however, she was intrigued. She heard that stallions had this issue in the morning.

What was it call? she thought to herself. Sunrise tree or something.

She reached out to his member and gently grasped the head.

“Spines?! What are you-“

AJ had woken up to Spines not only in his bed but grasping his member while it ran between her warm thighs.

“Nnnope.” AJ said as he threw the blankets off the bed. “Nope, nope, nope,” he added as he climbed out of bed and tried to leave.

“Wait.”

AJ froze and looked behind him.

The weakness in her voice was enough to make him stop in his tracks; he was further hindered when she grabbed the very tip of his blond tail.

She sat there on her knees hardly moving her face lowered to the point that he could hardly see her eyes. In that moment she seemed so frail and exposed to him, like she needed him more than ever.

“Last night, why did you stop?” The weakness in her tone still present as she spoke.

AJ could feel her claw shaking at the end of his tail. He just could never lie to any of his friends, and sometimes, like this, it got him in trouble.

“I didn’t know it was your first,” AJ answered. “Ya should give that to someone ya want to give that to; somepony that makes ya happy.”

Spines let go of his tail, allowing her arm to fall to her side. AJ turned around and faced her.

“Even during all that, you were still concerned about me?” Spines asked meekly.

“Absolutely, sunflower.” He said with a smile, thinking that he was making things better.

“Your right,” Spines said.

“Yep.” AJ responded. “Your first time is special, so that pony needs to be special.”

“Then stop being an idiot and come here!” she yelled at him louder than any has ever heard her.

AJ was so taken back so much that fell to his haunches.

She finally looked at him, tears gleaming on the edge of her eyes. Spines tried to wipe them away, but they just kept coming. She had to do this, she had to force it into the open or mister ‘nice guy’ AJ won’t do anything.

“You have always been there for me. Your honest with me, you make me feel pretty, special and cared for.”

Spines started squeezing the sheets in her claw as she further broke down. “You have protected me even saved my life. I feel safe when you’re around.” Here tears started to run out. “You even chased after me in that storm.

“You make me happy!” She screamed again. “I was just an idiot not to see it till now. So don’t be stupid.”

Spines gave AJ a smile he’ll never forget.

“Stay.”

Author's Notes:

I decided to cut this story short for a number of reasons.
The main one is that I needed to work on the Dusk and Eris story line and this was getting in the way.
While it’s marked as complete I may return to this story from time to time just to add depth to the little world I’m building.
