Becoming One With The Beat: Prodigy
Chapter 9: Chapter 8: Rarity Saves The Day!
Previous Chapter Next Chapter"So... You're here because of a client, you said?" I asked whilst sipping some of the tea she brought for us, sitting on the couch next to Lightweight with Rarity taking up the reclining chair to the side. It wasn't bad, actually. The tea, that is. And that's coming from somepony who usually hates it.
"Well, yes, but I thought it would just be rude to not pay you a visit! I haven't seen you in so long... I was beginning to miss my little dress-up doll!" Rarity squeed, most likely reminiscing on the times she used to dress me up in the outfits she made for me. Luna, was that embarrassing.
"Little dress-up doll?" Lightweight apparently picked up on it.
"Oh goodness, she was simply adorable back when she was a little filly and I would dress her up in all sorts of things! I only wish I remembered to bring pictures!
"I'd like to see that, actually..." Light shot a mischievous glance at me and I rolled my eyes at her.
It was at that point when my eyes rolled around the room that I glanced at the digital clock beneath the television and realized that we only had an hour or so before our "date", if you could call it that. I nudged Light while Rarity was still blabbering about my young filly days and pointed it out to her. I knew that she noticed, but she chose to ignore it for the time being which only fueled my impatience further.
"Well! Enough of my rambling." Rarity giggled and waved her hoof at us very effeminately. "How are your classes going so far, Angel? And, who is this lovely mare you managed to befriend?" She turned her attention to Light. "I must warn you, Angel here has quite an interest in the opposite side of the fence, if you catch my meaning."
We both blushed and looked away from each other.
"Y- Yes, ma'am... She... Already told me about that..." Light stuttered out, obviously embarrassed. I thanked her mentally for not spilling the beans about us then. "I'm sorry for not introducing myself earlier; my name's Lightweight. It's very nice to meet you, Miss Rarity."
"Charmed, but please, just Rarity will do." Rarity said back.
"R- Right... Sorry. Well, as for our classes, we've only had a few days, so it's not really difficult so far but we did have our diagnostic tests. Angel did really well!"
"Whatever... You did better." I crossed my front hooves against my chest.
"Nuh uh! You should've seen her, Rarity! She was throwing out lightning bolts like a Canterlot battle mage!"
"Come on, they weren't that good..." I smiled from the praise.
"Oh, I believe you, Lightweight. I remember back in the day when this little mare accidentally poked her horn into one of my electrical sockets and shorted out my electricity for an entire hour!"
"Y- Yeah... Sorry about that..."
"No need to apologize, sweetie. It certainly made quite the story!"
"I'll say... She hasn't told me about that one yet..." Light raised an eyebrow and looked at me as if she was picking at me for not telling more about myself.
Rarity sighed and relaxed in the chair. "But, I digress."
I looked over at the clock again and Rarity noticed.
"Is something the matter? I hope I'm not interrupting any plans!"
Light and I both looked at each other awkwardly and she decided to speak up after a few seconds.
"We were... Actually about to go to dinner at this place called Gastoire’s and... Well, um..."
"Gastoire’s?! Oh Celestia! I certainly hope you have something fitting to wear! That restaurant is ranked as one of the highest class restaurants in Canterlot!"
Another "oh shit" look was shared between Light and I.
"For heaven’s sake, don't tell me you don't have any formal attire! You can't be serious!"
"Yeah, well... We didn't really know how high class it was so..." Light twirled her mane around her hoof nervously.
"That simply will not do. Come on, girls." Rarity suddenly got up and made her way to the door.
"Huh? We're going somewhere?"
"Yes, Angel. We're going to find something nice for you girls to wear and I will not take no for an answer!"
Rarity's confident and determined smile was hard to argue against and since Light didn't protest, I didn't either.
"Come along, now! Chop chop! Fashion waits for nopony!" She held the door open for us, treating us like her children which wasn't really odd for her personality. Light and I both shared a shrug and got up.
"Honestly, what kind of establishment did you two think Gastoire’s was?"
We walked past her and I purposefully held my breath to keep from being maced by her perfume. It took all the willpower I had not to grimace and risk being rude in front of her. Celestia knows my parents would hear about it...
"Well, I saw a little brochure thingie that made it seem like a little family-owned place... You know, somewhere off the grid and low-key?"
Rarity looked at her as if she just said purple was a flavor. "You've got to be joking..."
If you guessed I didn't like dresses and makeup and all that, then bingo! You win!
In all seriousness, though, I'd actually rather babysit all of Fluttershy's pets for one day than have to wear one dress for an hour straight; I hated the things.
That being said, I loved shopping for them. Yeah, I know it’s hypocritical, but there are just some things my chromosomes won't let me not like. Shopping for dresses is one of those things.
Wearing them? Not so much. Hopefully, you understand now.
Lightweight, on the other hand, couldn't restrain herself for even a second before going all googley-eyed at the dresses on the mannequin's behind all the store windows. I rolled my eyes at her even though I thought it was adorable and that secretly, if there weren't as many ponies around, I'd probably be joining her.
"Miss Rarity?" I tried to be polite as I could to her. "Which one of these stores do you think we should try?"
"Oh. We aren't going to be fitting you with one of those pieces of commercial filth..." She acted as if she was getting sick just looking at them. "No. We're going to put you two in a couple of my dresses. I have quite a few left over from my meeting with a, um... Client. It just so happens I have about a half dozen that would fit you perfectly! Of course, I won't know for sure until we break out the measuring tape, but your body size-"
I tuned her out at that point and I was sure, despite Light's apparent appreciation for apparel, that she wasn't that interested in so many details, either.
Turns out, she had a pretty pricey suite just off of the main road with all the shops and stuff. When she pointed it out to me, I wasn't really impressed compared to the other hotels and condominiums scattered all over town. All it looked like was a seven or eight story apartment building with windows along the front and sides.
Once we walked in, though, it transformed into something completely different. It was like a five star condo camouflaged as a crappy motel. It made sense once I thought about it; it was a good location for famous ponies to stay and not attract a lot of attention.
As I expected, her room was on the top floor. We had to wait another couple of minutes while Rarity looked through her bag to find the one key out of fifteen that worked.
"I know it isn't that delightful, but please bear with it for the time being." Rarity said after sighing and putting all of her things on the nearby kitchen table. It was funny; the room was about the same quality as our dorm back at school, but neither Lightweight nor I had the heart to tell her. She probably spent half a fortune to get a room this close to the middle of town while we were practically getting to stay in something just as good for free. Well... Free for us, at least.
Rarity had several racks of dresses which came in a seemingly endless variety of shapes, sizes and colors. Light and I took the liberty to sit down and rest our weary hooves on the nearest couch we could find (the only one in the room) while she meticulously picked out the ones she apparently thought would go best on us.
"Alright, ladies! Try these on first; they'll give me a good idea of what size you both are."
I was trying to go fast because I didn't exactly want to stay out until midnight. I didn't know what Canterlot's crime rate was, but it was my intention to not find out the hard way. The dresses Rarity ended up giving me were way too gaudy and flashy for my tastes. Eh... I dunno why I'm even saying that. I don't have a taste for dresses at all.
But, the one I finally settled for was... Pretty okay. Lightweight stared at me until it almost got awkward when I had it on, so I knew it had to look good. I could care less what anypony else thought of it. I was wearing it for Light, that's all that mattered, really.
There wasn't anything special about it, which was probably why Rarity kept whining and prodding me about it for so long. It was blue, which matched my mane and tail fairly well, and sleek. Its tails slid down my hind legs elegantly and it was long enough so that it hid most of my tail underneath it.
It was all brought together with a silver-lined small-ish crystal that wrapped around my neck and was sewn into the fabric, as well as a pair of sapphire and silver earrings that were a tad on the heavy side. I settled for them since they didn't tug at my piercings too terribly bad.
Geez, just talking about that frilly stuff for that long makes me feel a little nauseous.
Light's dress was cool, too. Again, I'm not a fan of formal attire, but it did match her mane and her eyes pretty well. It would've resembled a wedding dress if it weren't for the shorter length and off-white color.
After everything was done and all the measurements had been taken, Rarity collapsed in an overly-dramatic way onto the couch with us, letting out a distressed sigh as measuring tape fell down upon her. Her mane was... Not really neat anymore.
After a fit of panting, she started to relax.
"Thanks a lot, Miss Rarity... You didn't have to do all that for us..." Light looked down beside her at the begruzzled Rarity and smiled.
"No problem at all, dear. I still owed our friend Alex a favor. I suppose paying it back via his daughter works out... Oh, well."
Wait... Owed him a favor? For what?
"Ooh, geez... We should probably get going soon..." Light sounded rushed as she took a peek at the fancy watch Rarity was wearing. I didn't get to question her about said "favor" like I wanted to, but it'd have to wait.
Thankfully, the contours of the Canterlot streets seemed to divert the water from the recent rain down onto the sides, so our dresses didn't get dirty as we walked towards Gastoire’s. Our hooves clopped against the cobblestone as we came closer to the street where most of the high class restaurants were. The sounds of nightlife were all around us. Dogs could be heard barking in far away alleys and the muffled tone of sophisticated music from the nearby restaurants filtered out onto the streets. We could probably spend the rest of our week going in and out of all those establishments and not even finish with half of them. I always appreciated a city that had a vivid nighttime scene, and Canterlot surely had that. If I weren't in school at the time and weren't single, I'd probably be hitting up the bars around there.
Rarity was oddly quiet most of the way. Maybe it was because she was so worn out from earlier. The only times she spoke up were when we passed by sketchy looking places, telling us to stay away from them. They looked fine to me, but wasn't the type of lady to go to those sorts of places, so I could understand where she was coming from. Places like that probably got tons of bad rep from high class ponies that were too picky and/or scared to try them out.
We got some pretty positive looks from random ponies passing by and it felt nice. I still remember how they looked at us like rugged outsiders when we first came there. I almost wanted to rub their faces in it.
I could tell we were getting close to Gastoire’s once I started noticing that the bars and partygoers were starting to thin out. It was the only real hint that we were going through the "upper" part of town.
Some pretty hefty bouncers were sitting at the front entrance and they apparently didn't care about us as we walked right between them. They were probably there to scare off all the ponies that usually went to the part of town we just went through earlier.
We could hardly see anything past the lobby area where the uptight looking reservation guy was. The only things cutting through the scant amount of light were candles set at each table and booth. The place smelled wonderful, but not like food. It was like a fruity-minty smell that somewhat soothed my senses.
"Reservations for...?" The guy up front spoke in a silly fancy accent and adjusted his glasses.
"Um... W-We don't have one, but... Is there a long wait?" Lightweight acted polite, but it was still obvious that she was nervous.
He looked really annoyed and looked down at the book he had on the table next to him.
"We are not taking reservations tonight, madam. I apologize."
He didn't seem sincere at all with that apology.
Rarity, after getting distracted looking around the place, came up from behind us and the guy apparently recognized her.
"Herold!" She approached him, not bothering to abide by personal space, but he smiled once he saw her and gave her a hug. "It's so good to see you! Oh, it's been ages!"
"You've certainly grown more beautiful than last we met-" Blah blah blah... They small-talked for a while and we were getting bored as our feet started to feel a little sore from the walking.
It might have not been the best way to handle it, but I let out a small cough to try and snap Rarity out of it. Light just stood there being a goody two-shoes as always, not saying a word and pretending as if she was interested.
"Oh! Right. Anyway, Harold, these two are very good friends of mine from the academy and they couldn't make a reservation because of school schedules. I know it's too much to ask, but... Would you mind?" Rarity batted her eyelashes at him and smiled.
He still seemed conflicted about it even when Rarity asked. "I'm not sure, Miss Rarity... I..."
"Please...?" She kept up with her flirtatious looks, but when she saw that it wasn't working, she leaned in and whispered something into his ear, smiling. The guy's face went blood red and he grinned.
"Hm? Just this once?" Her hoof was poking against his side. From his reaction, I had a couple of ideas about what she offered, but I kept it to myself.
"V-Very well, Miss Rarity..." He scribbled something down in his book and motioned for a waiter to come for us.
"You're a darling, Harold. Thank you so much." She kissed his cheek, turned, and gave us both a wink.
"Thanks!" Light whispered and I nodded to her in approval.
As she walked out, the waiter came almost instantly. He was kinda dorky and probably was working there to pay off student debt or something. In fact, he kinda looked like somepony in my physics class. Who knows, could've been him.
We were led all the way in the back since most of the other tables were full, and sat down at a booth for two with a small but big enough table coming out from the wall. There was a single rose in a vase next to where the wall and the table came together and an oil candle sat in the middle, illuminating Light's eyes beautifully.
We ordered our drinks and, despite my inner conscience telling me not to, I ordered a pomegranate martini. I only knew what it was because my mom used to drink them all the time. The waiter didn't ask for my age, luckily.
Light just ordered water. The guy shooed off once he finished writing it down.
"Sorry, I just wanted to try it..."
"Huh? No, it's fine! I don't mind at all. My dad gives me beers sometimes, so I don't really care."
I took a sigh of relief; I probably should've waited until I knew it was okay with her before ordering it, but I really needed something to help me relax since this was technically our first date.
Light pushed her bangs behind her ear and looked down nervously.
"So, um... How are your classes going?" I had to do my best to be talkative until my drink arrived. The alcohol would make me pretty chatty, then.
"Huh? Oh, they're good. One of my teachers is pretty strict about homework, but... Other than that, I have all A's so far, so..."
"Well, duh. Of course you have all A's." I said sarcastically and grinned.
"Come on... I'm not that smart..." My compliment was embarrassing her.
"Says the mare with all A's." I tease-kicked her leg underneath the table and she cracked a grin.
Our drinks came and I took a sip of mine. It was kinda tart, but that was good because it took the edge off of the liquor that was in it. It was still strong, though. I decided to take it easy so I wouldn't get drunk.
"I wish I could do that well... I mean I've tried flash cards and everything."
"W- Well, some ponies are more practical, I guess. You're definitely more talented than I am out in the field." It was cute how she was desperately trying to be humble and defend me. "All I know how to do is move rocks around..."
I took another sip and grinned. "Well, all I know how to do is shock things."
"That's not-" She stopped once she saw what I was doing. "Okay, I get your point..."
There was a little pause while I leaned in and looked into her eyes. "You're a great caster, Light. Don't let anypony else tell you otherwise."
"Thanks..." Light smiled and stared down into her glass.
Right as I was starting to feel the alcohol take effect, the waiter came back and broke our conversation. He didn't say anything, but I assumed he wanted to take our orders. I was so caught up in talking to Light that I didn't look at the menu sitting right next to my hoof.
"Uh..." I flipped it open and found the first thing that caught my eye. "The, uh... Seared grouper, please."
"Bisque de Canterlot." She never looked at the menu, but somehow knew what to get. It wasn't surprising given she was a know-it-all, but she probably just looked at one of the signs outside with the specials on it.
I liked the waiters there. Once they were done writing, they didn't bother you or waste your time. They just do what they came there to do and then leave.
"What the heck is that?" I looked at the menu for what she ordered, but it didn't have a description or anything.
"A bisque? It’s a soup, but it’s really creamy and brothy. I hear the one they serve here is awesome."
I had never heard of a bisque before despite living with auntie Octy for so long. I figured she'd mention something like that at least once. I never tried grouper, either, but I liked fish in general. It was a safe decision.
"S-So... You look really beautiful..." Light said out of nowhere after a semi-awkward pause. My face flushed a little.
"Oh, thanks... You do, too. That dress really brings out your eyes. I wish mine were like that."
"What are you talking about? Your eyes are pretty, too."
"Brown is pretty?"
Light nodded and I felt her leg rub gently against mine under the table again. I let her do so and took another sip of my drink as she stared at me.
"So about us..."
My ears perked up once the serious topic came up. "Y-Yeah?"
"You really want me as a marefriend?"
"Yeah, of course. I mean, if it's okay with you..."
"Could you tell me why? I'm just curious."
My nerves were getting the better of me, but the alcohol in my system helped push me through it and think of an answer.
"You're really cute, friendly, attractive, fun to be around... You're really good at cheering me up even when you're not trying to... And..." I was getting into deep emotional territory, so I thought carefully. "I just get this feeling when I'm with you that tells me that I can trust you and that you like me for who I am."
I smiled and waited for her response. She seemed flattered.
"That means a lot, Angel... It really does."
"What about me?" I was curious, but I also didn't want her to feel too embarrassed at the same time, so I moved the conversation along as I noticed that my martini was already half-empty.
Light didn't even hesitate despite her shy mood earlier. "I feel like I belong when I'm with you."
It took me a second to catch up to what she said and I had to admit, I was smitten by her words. My heart thumped hard in my chest and I became lightheaded from the emotions mixed with the liquor. As I looked back up at her, I felt like I was falling in love with her all over again.
"Sorry... I know it wasn't as long or thoughtful, but-"
"No, it... It's fine."
I wanted to take her right then and there. I wanted to plant a deep kiss onto her and show her how much I liked her, but unfortunately for the both of us, we were still in public. Her leg rubbing was itching at my desires.
I didn't need elaboration on her answer. I already knew at that point that she liked me enough so that I didn't have to worry about her true intentions.
Though, from time to time, it became difficult to concentrate on her due to the constant murmuring of a not-so-quiet group behind us. If it wasn't such a high-end place, I probably would've turned around and politely asked them to quiet down, but doing so would've made a scene here and I was hoping to attract as little attention as possible.
It wasn't their presence that made me unsettled, it was the few words I managed to pick up from their conversation. I knew for a fact that one of them mentioned the Night Society once or twice, but he (I could tell it was a stallion) didn't talk about them with a dissentful tone. I guessed that he was either a parent of somepony that was in it, or one of its members that happened to come up with enough money to pay for luxury.
Nevertheless, it didn't bother me enough to warrant a reaction; it just tickled the back of my head that was already worrying about the consequences of popping my head in their door one night.
I was starting to space out and think about it again when Light snapped me out of it, lowering her head to look at me since I was staring down at my already eaten dish.
"Oh! S- Sorry..." I smiled apologetically. Maybe it was because I was nervous, but I spilled a little more information out than I intended. "I was just thinking about... You remember back at the rec center, right?"
"Mhmm?" She gave me a questionable look since it only happened a hoof-full of hours ago. I was just being stupid partly because of the alcohol making my head feel lighter.
"Well, you remember that one mare that was there? Real scary looking one?"
"Um... I think I remember you talking to somepony, but I was busy popping off spells, so..."
"Anyways, she was with the Night Society-"
Lights slight smile weakened and I instantly realized it was a bad topic to bring up on an otherwise peaceful dinner.
"And she was trying to get me to join and all that..."
"Really, now? Why in Equestria would they want you?"
"I dunno... Maybe they need someone to make their group look better from the outside?" I smirked and it made Light giggle a little.
"Still, wouldn't they want someone like... More evil-ley? Wait, you're not planning on..." She looked immensely worried all of a sudden when she put two and two together.
I hated to lie. I hated even more to lie to those I loved, but... Damnit, I couldn't really blame it on the alcohol, either. I couldn't tell her yet. I mean, I wasn't going to join them permanently, so it wasn't a big deal, right? I was just going to dip my hoof in the water to see how it felt. No, I had to lie. I had no choice.
"Pfft. Nah. I like you guys a lot more. Besides, they probably go around hazing students and locking fillies in lockers and stuff..."
"Yeah... I couldn't see you doing that..." She looked up and smiled and it just made me feel worse inside. When she did, I noticed some of her bisque had settled on the tip of her nose. It was so adorable...
I lifted my napkin to her and she nearly crossed her eyes trying to focus on it before I wiped it off.
"Oh… T-Thanks..." She said with a hint of embarrassment. It worked in the sense that it distracted us from talking about the Night Society, but it still sat in the back of my mind and subconsciously had me in a state of unease for the rest of the dinner.
"Ohmygoodness that creme brulee was sooo good..." Light was still salivating with her dilated eyes closing as she bit her lip.
"It was that good, huh?" I held the door open for her and we both left. The warmth that the alcohol shielded me from the chilly wind that hit us shortly after. Our dresses did little to nothing in terms of warmth.
"Wow, I mean... I know Rarity paid for it and all, but I probably would've paid for it myself if I knew it was that good..."
She must've been feeling the cold, too; I leaned against her gently for the sake of body warmth when I saw her shivering slightly. She was still going on about whatever that dessert was back there, but as soon as she felt me touching her, she stopped.
"Hey... Um... Thanks for going out with me. It was really nice." I said nervously, but with the help of the drink from earlier taking the edge off.
"Yeah, it was... You're really fun to hang out with. I can't remember the last time I felt like this."
Her head rested underneath my chin affectionately, making me smile. Her coconut shampoo filled my nostrils as her mane acted as a miniature pillow while we started walking again. One of her ears was tickling my neck and I assumed that it was on purpose; it made my heart beat faster and got me more excited.
"Like what?"
"Like when your parents give you fifty bits and say you can go out with your friends for the night and do whatever? Or when you used to have sleepovers at your friends’ houses and do girly stuff?"
The reference was a bit obscure, but I think I understood where she was coming from.
"But, like... It's even better because it's with somepony I really like..."
"Oh? I didn't know you liked Rarity that much..." I smirked my usual smirk and teased. "I didn't take you for the posh fashionista type."
"Oh come on, you know that's not what I meant!" She pushed against me a little more and giggled.
Our hooves clopped and occasionally splashed in the few puddles that lined on the way back to our dorms. They weren't even an inch deep, so I didn't really care. Light never complained about it even though one particular puddle got some of her dress wet, which acted as more evidence that she wasn't one of those prudish fragile girls that I tended to not like in general.
We were both yawning by the time we reached the dorms and the cold dew that dotted the courtyard grass made my hooves slightly numb. Luckily, there were a couple of decent-sized wood fires going inside the lobby that made us feel better.
We had almost forgotten that we were walking against each other like a pair of hopeless young lovers until we saw some ponies walking down the hallway to the stairs. We separated quickly and tried not to act ashamed.
In the back of my head, even as I was nervously fidgeting to unlock our door, I couldn't stop thinking about what happened last night: Light's rather forward gesture in bed. Now that we were a little more comfortable with each other in public... I didn't really mind at that point. Though, I couldn't just ruin the moment by saying "Hey, Light. Wanna buck?" I had to just act natural and see how it played out. I didn't want her to feel guilty for last night either, which might've made her scared of trying it again. I was sure that if anything happened, it’d have to be because I instigated it.
My heart was thumping like a jack hammer in my chest from the distinguishable feeling that I was falling more in love with her. My hormones were yelling at me to move the relationship along quickly, but my head knew that it was a bad idea. To make matters worse, the drink I had earlier was wearing off, so I was no longer comforted by having my nerves dulled. I was back to acting like a bumbling idiot around her which still, by some miracle, didn't turn her off.
The first thing I did when I got in was take off those earrings. I wasn't used to wearing earrings and when I did, I just wore studs. Having a pair that hung and were decently-sized, even though it was generous of Rarity to supply them, was starting to make my ears sore.
"It was really nice for Miss Rarity to give us these outfits..." Lightweight admired her dress for several moments even after taking it off.
"Yeah, it's cool." I didn't pretend to be more interested in them than I was. I slipped out of mine and hung it up. I'd have to send it to the cleaners, but I had no clue where that would be. I'd have to find it out eventually.
"You don't like your dress?"
"Huh?" I had to raise my voice a little since she was still in the living room and I was in the bedroom. "Yeah, it's cool and all. I'm just not a big fan of really girly frilly stuff, 'ya know?" I didn't bother messing up my mane again since it wasn't really bothering me and Light seemed to like it when it was neat.
"Oh, good. I guess since you don't like girly stuff, I'll take dibs on first bubble bath?" She trotted by my door and stuck her tongue out at me with a mischievous smile.
"Aw, hey, come on!"
She giggled as she closed the door to the bathroom and I rolled my eyes, grinning.
Light sighed as she sunk further into the couch as I dried my mane with magic, walking from a recently exited relaxing bath.
"Isn't it nice to have a nice hot bath when it's cold outside?" Light said as she flipped through channels on the T.V.
"Yeah, especially when you don't have to wait for the other pony first." I teased and tossed the towel aside, sitting next to her. She caught it in mid-air and threw it into the dirty laundry bag.
"Hey, you could've joined me..."
My face went red and I stuttered. "I- Well, I mean, I didn't want to-"
"I'm teasing, you goofball!" I was about to come back at her, but felt the accelerated force of a soft object collide with the side of my face. The pillow was pretty large, so it almost knocked me off the couch.
I smiled and threw it back at her with my magic. It hit her square in the face and, in a comical coincidence, her horn pierced through it and came out the other end. I couldn't hold back my laughter.
"Omigosh, I'm sorry!" I held my belly and rolled around on the couch as she slowly removed it. A few fluffles of stuffing came out from the horn-sized hole left in the pillow.
"Are you sure you want to start this war, Angel?" Light said in a suddenly calm tone that almost had me convinced that she was mad until I looked up and saw a grin on her face.
"You wanna go?" I mocked in a funny accent.
Before I knew it, I had three pillows pelting my face and it took me a second to recover and retaliate. I rolled onto the floor, laughing the whole way down, and grabbed the nearest fluffy mass I could find. The couch acted as good cover and I rolled behind it whilst returning fire.
"Hey, whatcha doin hiding over there?!" Light rushed around the couch and kept up her assault and I put up a minor magic barrier to protect me, but it did nothing to stop her from grabbing a pillow with her bare hooves and whacking me around the side.
I used another couch pillow as a shield instead while I threw one or two more up at her face. I saw that she was using her front hooves to attack, so her hind hooves were exposed with all her weight hinging on them. Since I was on my back on the floor at that point, I lurched forward and grabbed them, knocking her off balance and making her fall back on the couch. I quickly climbed on top and took the advantage, giving her a good hit in the face as our laughing got louder. I stopped shortly after she gave up defending herself and we sat there, with me on top of her, panting heavily with wide smiles on our faces.
It took a moment for our mood to drastically change and the realization of our current position started to come upon us. My face turned red and the pent up energy and sexual frustration I was feeling back at the restaurant was starting to leak through along with my playful energy earlier. I think if it weren't for our pillowfight, I might've been able to restrain it, but... Given the circumstances, it was too much.
"I thought you-" Lightweight said between pants, looking up right into my eyes. "Didn't like girly stuff like pillow fights..."
A spark popped between us and we both instantly knew what we wanted. It was like some kind of instinct that triggered for both of us at the same time.
"I..." My voice grew unstable as I succumbed to my desires for her. "I guess..." I leaned down and got closer to her face. "You have a way of wearing off on me..."
"Angel-" Light said in a desperate tone before I cut her off with a quick and passionate kiss that made her moan in surprise inside of my mouth.
My hooves wrapped around her waist and I pulled us together; our emotions exploded in one instant and we were lost in desperate intimate love for one another. We gasped for breath in between kisses and each time we reconnected, it got more and sloppier until it evolved into the wettest, dirtiest french kiss I had ever given a pony.
Even though I was caught up in the moment, I only had one thing on my mind:
The bedroom.
Author's Notes:
Hey guys, long time no see! Turns out I have a little more time than I thought before I can ship out due to some medical wavers I need to get first. I apologize for the conflicting and inconsistent information; sometimes these things can get a little uncertain and change at a moments notice. In the meantime, here you go! I'll be able to post quite a few additional chapters so enjoy!
Also, I have a blog post that goes more into detail about my current situation including my new patreon I just made. If you're curious as to why I need one, again, it's explained in my blog post. It would make my day if you could help out and donate, but of course, you don't have to and I won't bother you about it enough for it to be annoying. http://patreon.com/canadianbrony91
