Sitting quietly on her sofa, Sunset Shimmer waited. Clad in her usual pyjamas, she let out a long sigh, occasionally glancing up to the clock on the wall. She counted the moments. He wasn't going to be late, that much she knew, but even so, she hated just sitting here. There was a degree of frustration upon her face, albeit only slightly, and while she tried her best to keep her spirits up, it was obvious that something was eating away at her. It was a sentiment reflected in her voice when she finally spoke.

"Okay, Sunset...this is going to be easy, you'll see."

Her lips twisted into a smirk.

"Flash likes this kind of thing as much as you do. He feels that kind of urge too, no matter what his friendly image might suggest. All we have to do is press a few buttons, and boom, he's the one making the first move for once!"

Leaning back into her sofa, a look of confidence came to her, and she crossed one leg over the other.

"By the time this is over, Mr knight-in-shining-armour will be all over me."

A knock at the door, and Sunset, slightly startled by this, immediately jolted upwards. Brushing herself down briefly, she cleared her throat, before putting on a smile and walking over to her door. She took in a deep breath, then opened. Sure enough, Flash was there, smiling in that sweet way of his.

"Hey there, Sunset."

Sunset chuckled.

"Hey, Flash. Come on in."

The boy did as offered, and Sunset closed the door behind him. Unbeknownst to Flash, however, the Equestrian was eyeing him up and down, a look of hunger in her eyes. It would have been obvious to anyone what she wanted right now. That is, everyone except Flash, who now turned to look to her. In the blink of an eye, Sunset's expression was replaced with one that was more cheerful and, quite frankly, more wholesome, and she remained quiet as her boyfriend spoke.

"Thanks for inviting me over."

Smiling, Sunset walked over, and here, she began her self-appointed task for the evening. There was a slight sway in her hips, and as she finally reached her lover, she raised one hand, placing it gently upon the side of his face.

"Oh, you know me...I just love having you nearby."

Now, Flash Sentry was by no means an unintelligent young man. Indeed, there were days when he not only displayed a great deal of perceptiveness, but also held his own besides some of the smarter students of the school. But then, there were the other days. The days when, particularly if sex was concerned, one could give him signals as clear as those on an airport runway, and he'd still be oblivious to what was going on. Sadly, for Sunset, tonight seemed to be one of those latter occasions, as Flash's response to her amorous tone was a simple happy smile.

"I love being near you too, honey."

Leaning forward, the boy planted a kiss upon her cheek, and while by no means an unpleasant experience, Sunset did grumble slightly as he walked away afterwards. Clearly, she'd have to up her game somewhat. Still, let it never be said that she was without backup plans. Regaining her knowing smirk, she sauntered on over to the sofa again, where Flash had elected to sit down. The former unicorn sat close by, and as she did so, one of the shoulder sections of her pyjamas decided, by sheer coincidence, that it was going to slide down all of a sudden. With her shoulder exposed, she looked over, giving him that same hungry look as before.

"So...anything you'd like to do, Flash?"

The boy considered that, then smiled to her.

"Sure. We could talk about our day. How was that study session with Rainbow and the others?"

Sunset could use that, and she knew it. So, after only the briefest of moments to plan, she looked to him, taking a moment to scoot over a little bit closer on the sofa, before giving him his answer.

"Oh, sure. It was great. We had so much fun together. Although..."

She let out a sigh so obviously fake that anyone, except those named Flash of course, would have recognised it as such.

"...when it's all over, I do feel a little...lonely?"

Flash's expression softened when he heard that, but his smile soon returned, and he reached over to her. Sunset's heart skipped a beat, and she fully expected that this would indeed be the moment she was waiting for. But, alas, it was not to be. Instead, Flash's arm circled around her shoulder, and he held her close, in a loving, yet entirely un-sexual way.

"That's okay, Sunset. We all have those moments. It's perfectly natural."

Flash closed his eyes, clearly content in this warm moment he was sharing with his girlfriend. Sunset, by contrast, rolled her eyes, using her free hand to rub the bridge of her nose in frustration.

"Unbelievable..." she muttered.

"Hm?" Flash remarked.

Sunset looked up to him.

"Oh! I mean...it's unbelievable I have a boyfriend as caring as you. So loving, so...great. Just...just great."

Flash chuckled.

"I love you too, sweetie."

Alright. So that was how it was going to be, eh? Well, let it never be said that Sunset didn't give him ample opportunity. Now, she'd have to bring in the big guns. Sighing, she moved away from him slightly, leaning back and resting her back against one of the sofa's armrests. As she did this, she kicked off her slippers, letting them fall to the ground below, and this was when Flash looked to her, seeming confused all of a sudden.

"Sunset?"

Sunset, for her part, took on a look that suggested she was experiencing some unspoken discomfort.

"Oh, don't mind me. I think it's just feeling a little...warm."

She reached forward, grabbing hold of the section of her pyjama bottoms right next to where her ankles were. Slowly, she pulled it back, gradually revealing her legs, inch by inch, until she'd gone back as far as her upper thigh. When this was done, she moved to the second leg, and did exactly the same. Eventually, she'd pulled up so much, and exposed so much, that her pyjama bottoms now more closely resemble a pair of purple briefs. Having done this, she stretched out, resting her now-bare legs across Flash's lap, letting out a long sigh as she did this.

"Sometimes...you just want to feel really...really comfortable....if you take my meaning."

As had happened before, she gave her boyfriend a look that was practically smouldering. Flash stared at her, blinking a few times, before once more smiling and giving a nod.

"You know...you're right. Actually I've been meaning to take my jacket off all evening. You know how much warmer things have been getting this time of year."

Sunset stared right back at him, looking around herself, as if silently hoping there was someone, anyone, who she could look to for reassurance in all of this. But, sadly, no. Flash had meant every word of that. Every sign and signal she'd sent his way, he just had not gotten it. So, slowly, she slid her legs off him, her feet now firmly planted on the ground, and just stared at the wall for a few moment's. Flash looked to her, suddenly unnerved by the silence that had fallen over them. Then, at last, she looked back, and, knowing her options, she dropped all pretence.

"Flash...I invited you over here for sex."

Immediately, the boy seemed taken aback.

"You...you did?!"

Sighing, Sunset nodded.

"Yes...I did."

Flash blinked.

"Well...why didn't you say anything?"

As one would expect, Sunset slapped her forehead, then groaned in frustration.

"Ugh! I just...how can I...why won't you...?!"

She looked him right in the eye again.

"I wanted you to make the first move, dummy!"

Flash, naturally, seemed equally surprised to that statement.

"Me?!"

"Yes! You! Did you not notice anything I was doing tonight?! I want you to be the one who gets this party started! I want you to leap on me like a wild animal and just...you know...have at me!"

Flash raised an eyebrow.

"I...I don't understand. Are you...unhappy that you've taken the lead so many times before?!"

Here, Sunset paused.

"No! Well...not exactly. It's just..."

She looked away.

"I appreciate that you've pretty much let me be the one to go first this whole time. I really do. I respect that you respect me in that. But sometimes..."

For just a moment, she hesitated.

"...sometimes...I just feel like...you know...maybe a little forwardness from you would ne nice. That you'd just go nuts on me. That, sometimes...never mind."

She grumbled.

"Just...why do you always have to be so...so...so God-damned nice?!"

Then, she sighed, and when she once more looked to him, her eyes were soft.

“Flash...I love you, I really do. The times we’ve had together have been wonderful. And I hate saying this to you, but...I just wanted one night where you’re...you know...not such a boyscout with me.”

She looked away again, and silence yet again clung to the two youths. For just a brief moment, there was a sense of discomfort shared by the both of them. But, in the midst of it all, Sunset noticed that a stray hair now fell in front of her face. Annoyed by this, she raised her hand, tucking it and some of her hair on the left behind her ear. When she’d done this, however, she could hear Flash tensing up slightly beside her, and so turned to look at him. To her confusion, she saw him now bearing a very bright blush, leading to some questions on Sunset’s part.

“Flash? You okay?”

The boy, realising what was going on, immediately turned away.

“Er, yeah! Sure!”

Sunset raised an eyebrow.

“Really? Because you look a little...nervous.”

Flash said nothing, merely glancing sideways to Sunset every once in a while. But, after almost a full minute of this, he slowly turned to her. It took a while, and when he spoke it was with clear embarrassment, but even so, he answered.

“It’s just...um...could you...you know...do that again?”

Of course, Sunset had no idea what he was talking about.

“Do what again?!”

Flash gulped.

“That, er...that hair thing?”

Sunset frowned, and then, her eyes widened, and her gaze drifted off slightly to the left. She went back and forth looking from that spot, to Flash, and back again, before settling on the boy. Slowly, a mischievous smirk came to her, and she turned to face him fully.

“Oh...you mean...this?”

As before, she tucked her hair behind her ear, making sure to do is as slowly and sensually as she could, and Flash’s blush increased, much to Sunset’s delight.”

“Well now...what do we have here? Is it possible I may have found...something that turns you o-oomph!”

Before she could even finish, Flash had lunged forward, placing his lips upon hers. The kiss was passionate, direct, and while Sunset was certainly taken aback by this sudden and unexpected forwardness, that sense of surprise soon morphed into outright satisfaction. Closing her eyes, she wrapped her arms around him, holding him closer, and truly enjoyed this intimacy with him. Eventually, they parted, and after panting for a few moments, Flash began to speak, his tone low.

“Sunset...I am going to make you feel like you're the sexiest, most desired girl in the world!”

Sunset, who had never known Flash to be this way, hesitated for a moment, and then, like with the kiss, that feeling became one of excitement and anticipation.

“Okay...that’s more like it!”

Flash looked to her hungrily.

“I want to kiss every inch of you...from head to toe.”

He leaned closer, planting the first of those promised kisses upon her neck, which, as was usually the case, led to a moan of pleasure on her part.

“Oh...yes...this is what I wanted! Keep talking!”

“I want to caress every single part of your gorgeous, perfect body. Down your back, your hips, your thighs, everywhere. I want to stare into your beautiful eyes as we move closer...and make love.”

“Mmmmm...yes,” Sunset replied.

"By the time this night is over, I promise you, neither of us will even be able to walk," Flash continued.

"Yes...yes...yes!"

In that moment, Sunset wrapped her still-bare legs around his waist, drawing him even closer. After kissing her on her lips once more, Flash did as he’d said, and stared right into her eyes.

“Tonight...I will give you every single ounce of pure, forward, passionate lust you want from me.”

Though undoubtedly overwhelmed with the sheer anticipation of the kind of night she was about to have with her lover, Sunset, through her pants and heavy breathing, looked to the boy with the same unrestrained desire he now directed towards her. Slowly, her lips turned, becoming a smile of both love and lust.

"Ground control...we have lift-off."

Then, in the blink of an eye, Flash's expression changed, and he looked to her with more than a little incredulity.

"Lift-off? Seriously?"

Sunset rolled her eyes.

"Hush. Sexytimes now. Criticism of bad foreplay talk later."
