The warm glow of the afternoon sun beamed down through the window. The gentle rays fell upon a rug placed on the floor of the large lobby of the Golden Oaks Library. A certain pegasus pinched his already closed eyes tightly from the late afternoon light that had slowly made its way onto his face. His ear twitched and he shifted his head to get the light out of his eyes, but it didn’t seem to be any use.

A small laugh came from the unicorn sitting on a couch across the room as he watched his coltfriend fidget from the sunlight. “It’s cute when he squirms,” Dusk Shine said to himself as he returned to his reading.

Rainbow Blitz’s ear twitched once more before he finally opened his opposite eye that was still in the shade. He let out a low groan. “Why does Prince Solaris move the sun that way?” he grumbled to himself as he rolled over onto his opposite side.

“He’s been doing so for centuries, Rainbow.” Dusk casually replied.

The sound of a page turning filled the silence that came when Blitz didn’t respond. He knew Dusk probably wasn’t waiting for one though. The stallion let out a sigh as he started drifting back off to sleep. But just as Blitz was about to return to his nap a voice rang out.

“Hey, Dusk?” Barb called out from the kitchen. “What did you guys want for dinner?”

Dusk waited until he finished with his page to reply. “I’m fine with anything, really.” Dusk looked up to see Blitz had his ears laid flat and a small scowl on his face. He couldn’t help but chuckle at the sight. “I think Rainbow will be fine with whatever as well,” he replied with a softer voice.

Barb poked her head out of the kitchen. “I wanted to make this stir fry thing tonight.”

“Stir fry?” Dusk looked up from his book.

“Yeah, I saw the recipe in that new cookbook that came to the library last week. ‘A thousand exotic recipes’ or whatever it was called.”

“I would be interested in trying it—”

“Trying to sleep here…” Blitz muttered angrily.

Barb rolled her eyes. “Middle of the day here.”

Dusk chuckled again. “She has a point, Rainbow.”

Blitz let out a groan as Barb turned her attention back to Dusk. “Anyway, I’ve got to go get some things for it before the market closes.”

“Did you need me to go with you?” Dusk started to stand up, but Barb shook her head, stopping him before he made much progress.

“No, just some bits,” she said as she walked over to a corner table. She pulled out a drawer and grabbed some money before heading to the door. “I’ll be back in a little while.”

Dusk cracked a smile and gave her a sly look. “Don’t stop by Elusive’s on the way home,” Dusk teased as Barb shut the door. Before he turned his attention back to his book however, he noticed Blitz stirring out of the corner of his eye.

“I guess I should get up,” he said, stretching his back. He shifted his weight seamlessly from pushing down on his back to stretching his hind legs. After he was done, he let out a yawn. “I got work in the morning and if I sleep too much more, I won’t want to go to bed tonight…” His wings extended out for a moment before folding back at his sides. After Blitz folded his wings, he ruffled his feathers for a moment.

“So, you’ve had your nose buried in that for a while.” He waited for a small sound of acknowledgement from Dusk before asking, “What’re you reading?”

“A book called ‘The Courtship and Mating Habits of Pegasi,’ though I’m about done with it.”

Blitz stared at him in disbelief for a moment while he registered what his coltfriend had actually said. Once it sunk in, his eyes narrowed and he stood up. “Are you seriously reading a book on how to date me?”

“Not really.” Dusk closed the book and levitated it onto the table next to the couch. “It’s not about you specifically, though I could write one if you want.” Dusk laughed his silly joke before sitting up.

“Shut up…” Blitz rolled his eyes before focusing them back on Dusk with a serious gaze. “You were seriously reading a book about dating pegasi, though! Like, you could…I don’t know, ask me?” He fell back on his rump.

“I was reading it more for an overview,” Dusk clarified. “For instance, to learn about some of the little quirks I’ve noticed.”

“Like?” Blitz raised an eyebrow.

“When you ruffled your feathers just now.” Blitz could feel his face heat up from the remark. He glanced back at his wings for a moment before looking back at Dusk. “I started noticing that recently as the weather’s been turning colder. I wouldn’t have known you did that for a little extra warmth unless I looked it up. It’s small things that I was curious about, but would feel awkward to ask.”

Blitz’s expression softened and he let out a sigh. “Just ask next time. I’d rather you ask me something stupid than read about it.” Blitz started walking towards the kitchen.

“Alright.” Dusk jumped off the couch and started following Blitz. “Since, you want me to ask questions, I was wondering: would you give me one of your feathers? Pegasi do that, right? You offer a pristine feather to your romantic partner as a show of affection?”

Blitz’s face felt like it was on fire for a moment. “You’re joking, right?” When he turned his head to see Dusk with a blissfully ignorant look, he couldn’t help but groan. “Dusk, you know I’m not comfortable with this kind of stuff yet…”

Dusk flattened his ears. “I understand, which is why I wouldn’t put it on a necklace or use it as an accessory—which is the most common application from my understanding. The cultural significance though—”

“I didn’t ask for the encyclopedia article, Dusk…” He sighed. “This is why I didn’t want you reading this crap, you try and use this stuff without really thinking it through sometimes…Look, stallions give a feather to a mare, you know that? Don’t you like to think you’re the stallion in our relationship?”

“Well, I don’t have feathers to give you…”

“I know you don’t…” Blitz rolled his eyes. “Look, this is kind of a big step. It’s like saying you’re taking the relationship seriously and stuff…” A small frown came across Dusk’s face, which made Blitz wince. “N-not that we’re not serious…but…”

“I understand. You’re not ready for it,” Dusk said, forcing a small smile. “I just want to feel like we’re more than just sex friends.”

Staring into his eyes, Blitz could see Dusk was a little hurt still. He couldn’t help but sigh as he turned around and walked up towards his coltfriend. “I get it, Dusk, I really do. You want to do more…dating type stuff than we do now…But, I’m not ready to tell it to the world that we’re a couple yet, okay? I’m still getting used to this whole being gay thing…”

Dusk nodded understandingly. “I told you I wouldn’t force you. Now that you’ve accepted it, we can move at your pace.” He gave a sincere smile that brought a small smile to Blitz’s face as well.

He leaned in to Dusk’s muzzle. “Thanks, Dusk.” He placed a kiss on his coltfriend’s lips which Dusk returned. It wasn’t long before he felt Dusk push his tongue inside his mouth. A quick burst of passion came as he felt himself being pushed down when his stallion stepped closer. Dusk quickly established his dominance and their kiss deepened. Without much resistance, he let Dusk have his little power trip, letting him probe his mouth and share his saliva.

When they broke, Dusk gave a sultry smile. “Keep that up and we might have to go upstairs.”

“Save it for tonight,” Blitz teased. But as he stared into Dusk’s eyes, he felt at ease. Having someone who accepted him wholeheartedly and cared about him so deeply was almost indescribable. Everything felt right, even if it was just Dusk, Barb, and Elusive who knew his secret.

Seeing the small, content smile on his coltfriend’s face wore down Blitz’s initial disapproval. He nodded to himself before rolling his eyes in resignation. “Alright, so what did you want my feather for? Just to have it?”

Dusk blinked absently. It took a moment for it to hit him that Blitz was giving him what he wanted. “Oh, well…if you don’t mind, I would like to use it as…” Dusk blushed. “My new favorite quill?” he asked, timidly.

“You want to use one of my awesomely amazing, top-of-the-line feathers…as a quill?” he asked with a deadpan expression.

Dusk nodded, embarrassed.

Blitz sighed. “Alright…but only because I’m feeling generous.” He extended his wing for Dusk to see and spread his feathers. “Take your pick…”

“Really?”

“Yeah, I guess we’re getting pretty serious after a month of this…” Blitz muttered.

“Thanks, Rainbow.” Dusk gave a quick peck on Blitz’s cheek, making him blush.

“Just don’t go showing everypony.” After he said that, he felt Dusk’s magic pushing his feathers apart. Blitz pinched his eyes closed as soon as he felt Dusk sifting through his feathers. “I’m going to have to straighten them when he’s done…He doesn’t know the first thing about wing care.”

Dusk inspected Blitz’s feather’s closely as he moved along his wing. Blitz didn’t lie. His wings did boast a top-of-the-line selection, which made Dusk’s choice difficult. A small smile came across his face though after he found a feather that was perfect. Long, elegant, and a solid shaft—perfect for a quill. “Brace yourself, Rainbow,” Dusk warned with an upbeat tone.

“Just do it.” Blitz winced as the feather was plucked. He let out a small hiss, but soon felt the pain fade. He glanced down to see Dusk’s magic focusing on the spot, dulling the bit of pain for him. Next, his coltfriend’s magic spread out over his wing and realigned the feathers he had disturbed.

After the magic faded, Blitz looked up at Dusk. He was looking over his new quill with a pleased expression. When he noticed Blitz’s gaze though, he pulled him in for a quick hug. “Thanks, Rainbow.”

“Yeah…” Blitz placed a foreleg around Dusk, hugging him back. “You’re welcome.”

“It really does mean a lot to me,” Dusk said as he stepped back. He turned and started to head upstairs.

Blitz turned back to the kitchen. “Well, I guess since we can’t really go on dates or anything, it’s the least I can do,” he said regretfully.

Dusk stopped on the stairs and turned his head back towards Blitz. Once the pegasus was out of sight, he stared back at the feather in his magic. His expression shifted from content to contemplative. “Yeah…” He placed his hoof to his chin before continuing.

------------------------------

The next day began early with a loud ringing. Dusk slowly opened his eyes and with a spark of his horn, turned off the alarm clock beside him. The pale magenta light of his magic was the only thing illuminating the dark room, giving him just enough light to see the clock’s surface. “Five-thirty,” he muttered to himself.

He rolled onto his other side with a yawn. His foreleg fell softly onto the warm mass under the blanket next to him. Blitz was still fast asleep, but as soon as Dusk touched him, the pegasus cuddled up closer to him. “Maybe I should switch the spell back so he gets woken up by the alarm instead of me…” Dusk cracked a smile. “Then again, he slept through it the last time we tried that.”

Dusk shook Blitz. “Wake up, Rainbow,” he whispered into his coltfriend’s ear.

A small murmur escaped from the sleeping stallion’s mouth, but it was clear he was still asleep. Dusk glanced back at the alarm clock and rolled his eyes. “Well, I tried being nice,” he said to himself. “Rainbow, get up.” He used his magic to tug the blanket off of them and climbed out of bed.

Blitz groaned. “Seriously?”

“It’s morning, Rainbow. You’ve got work, remember?”

He rolled onto his back and covered his eyes with his foreleg. “Stupid job…” He yawned before peeking out from behind his foreleg at Dusk. It was still mostly dark, but he managed to make out the stallion’s face in the dim early morning light. He didn’t look too sympathetic to his plight.

Dusk stared at him with a less than enthused expression. “I’m tired too, but you’re the one who insists on getting up this early,” he retorted with an sarcastic tone.

Blitz groaned again. “Only because I’ve got to get out of here before anypony else is up.” Blitz forcefully rolled onto his side, using the momentum to throw himself out of bed. He landed on his legs with a loud clop, which made his coltfriend wince.

“Barb’s asleep, so try to keep it down…” Dusk said softly as he started downstairs.

Blitz rolled his eyes. “She sleeps like a rock most of the time.” As he walked past the little dragon’s basket, he wasn’t surprised to see she had a blissful grin on her face and was still sound asleep. “Lucky…”

Making his way downstairs, he headed for the same place Dusk went, the kitchen. When he entered, he plopped down on a chair at the table and rubbed his eyes. It wasn’t long before he heard the sound of something being set down in front of him. When he looked down, there was probably the most beautiful sight he could ever see that early in the morning, coffee. Blitz quickly snatched the mug and took a sip. As soon as the piping hot liquid hit his tongue, his body felt as though it was springing to life.

“There has to be a better way to do this, Rainbow.”

Blitz shook his head without pulling the mug away from his lips. After a few more sips, he set down the mug with a content sigh. “If you know a better way, I’m all ears.”

Dusk let out a relenting sigh and returned to making breakfast. “Hopefully, it won’t take long…” he muttered to himself.

Blitz’s eyes drifted around the kitchen with Dusk as he prepared breakfast. As he watched, Blitz thought about just how much his morning routine over the past month he and Dusk had been dating had changed. Blitz used to wake up mere minutes before he had to be to work and he never ate breakfast.

Now, though, he woke up earlier than even Solaris did. Each morning, he would head to the kitchen, spend some time talking to Dusk while he made a small breakfast for the two of them. When breakfast was done, he snuck home to give the illusion he was leaving from his house when he went to work. It was inconvenient and tedious, but necessary if Blitz didn’t want to raise suspicion.

“Rainbow?” Dusk asked, pulling Blitz from his musings.

“Your reluctance this morning set us back a bit, so I just made some toast. You’d better eat it quickly or else you’re going to be late.”

Blitz raised an eyebrow as he took a sip of his coffee. His eyes shifted to the time, which only made him curious. “It’s not any later than any other morning…” he said after putting his coffee down.

“That clock is running slow,’ Dusk said without missing a beat.

Blitz continued to keep his eyebrow raised. “You sure?” Dusk stared at him straight on, but when he asked his question, Dusk’s ear twitched slightly. Blitz narrowed his eyes slightly.

“Yes.” Dusk took a sip of his own coffee. “So, hurry and eat so you can get going.”

Something didn’t seem quite right. The sudden wake up call, how quickly he had the coffee ready, and now this. If he didn’t know any better, it felt like Dusk was rushing him out the door. After a moment though, he shrugged it off. “Probably just imagining things.” He scarfed down the rest of his breakfast, guzzled his coffee, and stood up.

Once Blitz was up, he noticed Dusk stopping in the middle of his breakfast. He stood up as well and walked over to Blitz’s side of the table. “I’ll see you after work.” He placed a kiss on Blitz’s cheek.

“Yeah,” Blitz muttered, blushing. “See you this afternoon.” He placed a quick kiss on Dusk’s cheek and before the stallion could react, he rushed out of the kitchen.

Soon after, Dusk heard the front door close and he breathed a small sigh of relief. “He can be hard to get moving in the morning…” He thought, as he returned back to his spot at the table.

Before he could even take a bite of his toast, Barb appeared in the doorway. Seeing her slouched and rubbing her eye made him laugh to himself. He glanced over at the toast and, with his magic, put two pieces of bread inside it for his young assistant’s breakfast.

“You two are too loud in the morning,” she said with a yawn.

“Sorry, Barb. I told him to keep it down,” he said with an apologetic smile.

She shrugged at Dusk’s apology before grabbing a plate. “So, why was Blitz out of here so quick today?”

Dusk took a quick sip of his coffee before speaking. “I actually pushed him out of here early today.”

She raised an eyebrow. “Why’s that?”

“Well, I have a bit of research to do for a surprise I’m planning for him, so I needed him gone while I do it.”

Barb climbed up on the chair with a plate. She grabbed a knife on the table and put some jam on her slices of toast. “Really?”

“Yes.” He nodded with a pleased smile. “I want to take him on a date—”

“Whoa, you know he’s not going to like you doing that behind his back, Dusk.” She gave him a deadpan look as she took a bite of her breakfast.

Dusk quickly furrowed his brow. “Hear me out.” He cleared his throat. “It’s natural to want to go on romantic outings with your significant other and I know Rainbow wants to go on a date just as much as I do. He’s just…scared.” Dusk took a sip of his coffee before continuing. “He doesn’t want anypony to find out he’s dating a stallion, so I’m looking into a way we can have a date without it being obvious we’re on one—”

“He still ain’t going to like it,” she said shaking her head. “It’s not about being obvious. He said he doesn’t want to go on a date yet—”

Dusk glared at her. “—Which is why, if you would let me finish, I’m going to okay it with him before we go.” His expression softened. “I’m not going to force him into it, Barb, but I feel I should present him with the option at least.”

She nodded, but not really believing him. “You’re just going to offer it to him?”

Dusk blinked, absently for a moment. “Well, yes. I want him to be comfortable with the idea before we try it. He needs to know it’s safe so he can realize there’s nothing to worry about. He’ll be fine once we’re on the date—”

“That’s not just asking him, Dusk…”

“What is with you?” he asked taking a bite of his toast. “You’re being very negative.”

“I know you. Once you get focused on something, it becomes about doing it properly rather than doing what’s right…I’m worrying about Blitz here because if you upset him, he might break up with you.”

Dusk sighed. “I’m taking that into consideration, but I have to at least ask him. I want to move at Rainbow’s pace, but I’m afraid that if I let him sit for too long, he will just remain as he is now, content hiding from the public with just you, Elusive, and I knowing his secret.” Dusk stared down into his coffee with contemplative gaze. “I think I have the perfect date for us. One that’s safe, secluded, but still in public.” When he looked up, he saw Barb was still skeptical. “There’s no harm in asking, right?”

She shrugged her shoulders “Just remember, if he says no, it means he doesn’t want to do it, Dusk.”

Dusk rolled his eyes. “Thank you for that bit of wisdom, Barb.”

------------------------------

“Stupid Dusk.” Blitz shoved a cloud as hard as he could, sending it crashing into pile of other clouds. “Why the hell did he push me out of the house so early today?” He bolted over to another cloud and shoved it like the last. “I gave him that feather yesterday, he shouldn’t be pissed at me…” he muttered to himself.

After he finished rounding up the stray clouds, he plopped down on the mass for a moment. “Hell, he even kissed me this morning, so he can’t be pissed.” Blitz rolled onto his back and stared up at the open sky. It was already early afternoon, but he wasn’t over it yet. Dusk lied to him, that much was clear, but he didn’t know why.

The fact that Dusk pushed him out the door early had him racking his brains all morning and now he was starting to worry. “If he kicked me out, that means he’s probably hiding something…” He let out a groan. “If he bought another dress, I swear to—”

“There’s Blitz over there. Why don’t you ask him?” he heard a voice call out.

Blitz glanced off to where the voice was coming from. He saw two of his co-workers flying towards him at a casual pace. Two stallions, one with a dark coat and another with light grey. “What’s up?” He rolled onto his chest and sat up on the cloud.

“So, Blitz,” the dark grey one started, “Silverwing here wants some advice with the mares.” He gave a teasing glance to the stallion next to him.

The other stallion rolled his eyes. “Shut up, Thunderlane. I’m just taking it slow.”

Blitz’s heart seized at the mention of mares. “Mares?” he asked in a small voice. When the two looked at him with a strange glance, Blitz cleared his throat. “Okay, so, what did you want advice on?” He sat up a bit straighter and puffed out his chest a bit more than usual.

The light grey stallion sighed. “It’s nothing—”

“It’s not nothing, Silverwing. It’s been two months and you two’ve barely moved past nuzzling.” Thunderlane gave him a playful nudge. “If you want to get her in bed, just ask Blitz what to do. He’s fucked more mares than he can count.”

Blitz felt his heart seize again. It wasn’t a lie, he had slept with plenty of mares, but considering his current relationship, he needed to be careful. He was well aware that one wrong slip of a pronoun could raise some questions and that was the last thing Blitz needed right now. Not to mention his mind was still on his own relationship. “Yeah…” he shook his head to focus himself. “What do you need to know?”

Thunderlane gave Silverwing another nudge which only made him sigh. “Fine!” he said, finally relenting. “Me and this mare have been dating for a few months and she’s not putting out.” The red in his cheeks clearly shone through his light fur.

Thunderlane held back a laugh. “Dude, why’re you getting so embarrassed!”

“Shut up!” Silver shoved him. “I was wondering if there’s anything I can do to move things along…”

Blitz closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm his racing heart. “Just calm down. You might be gay, but you’ve still fucked plenty of mares over the years, Blitz. You can do this.” When he opened his eyes again, he pushed his worrying about Dusk to the side and focused on the moment at hoof. “She’s not talking about marriage or anything, is she?”

Silverwing shook his head.

“Good, that makes things easier.” Blitz nodded in thought for a moment. “So, what’s she say when you bring it up?”

“I, uh…” Silverwing rubbed the back of his head. “I haven’t…”

Thunderlane burst into laughter. “Are you kidding me?”

Blitz snickered a bit too. “Dude, no wonder you’re having trouble. Have you even made a move?”

“N-no…”

Another burst of laughter came from Thunderlane, but Blitz held up his hoof to make him stop. “Seriously? Look, mares like sex just as much as stallions. She probably wants to fuck too, but you’ve got to show her you’re interested in it. That prim and proper shit will only get you so far. After a few months, girls want to see you show an interest!” Blitz pressed his hoof to his forehead.

Silverwing nodded, though his cheeks were still beet red.

“Don’t go super perv on her right away, but don’t be scared to talk to her about it.”

“I-I guess I should…” Silver rubbed the back of his head. “I was just kind of waiting for her to make the first move.”

“And that’s why you’re not fucking her!” Thunderlane wrapped a foreleg around Silverwing’s neck and put him into a headlock. “Mares are like these clouds, sometimes they just need a little push to get moving, right?” Thunderlane looked at Blitz for confirmation, but only saw him shaking his head.

“I think all anypony needs is a little push sometimes…” Blitz said softly. He laughed a bit once he realized how much that had applied to himself. If it hadn’t been for Dusk’s, admittedly more-than-a-little push, he wouldn’t have accepted his sexuality or be in a relationship. His eyes shifted back to the two stallions in front of him and he cleared his throat when he noticed the confused stares. “Yeah, mares aren’t really that different from stallions when it comes to wanting sex. Don’t treat ‘em like some alien species, they got a sex drive too.”

Both nodded, glancing at one another as they did.

“Makes sense. So, anyway, speaking of fucking…” Thunderlane raised an eyebrow at Blitz and gave him a sly smile. “Who’ve you been fucking lately, Blitz?”

Blitz nearly choked on his own breath. “W-what?” he asked, innocently, though inside his chest, his heart was beating a million miles a minute. How did Thunderlane find out about him and Dusk? How could he when Blitz was so careful? There was no way Thunderlane got up early enough to see him leave Dusk’s house, but maybe he noticed him heading there after work everyday? A million questions raced through Blitz’s mind, but Thunderlane interrupted them with a laugh.

“Oh, come on, Blitz. Who’s the lucky mare?”

Once Blitz heard the word “mare” his heart slowed. That word meant Thunderlane didn’t know about him and Dusk. Blitz breathed a sigh of relief, though a stray thought at the word almost made him chuckle “Who’s the mare?” he mentally asked. “Me.” he rolled his eyes.

“Come on, I mean, she got you to stop putting all that gel in your mane and you’re a hell of a lot more relaxed these days.” Thunderlane flew a little closer to Blitz with a teasing grin spread wide across his face. He still had Silverwing in a headlock and pulled him along with him.

“Would you get off me!” Silverwing pushed Thunderlane away and rubbed his neck. “I’m going to get back to work so I can get out of here.” Silver flew off in a huff, obviously annoyed.

After Thunderlane recovered from the shove, he shrugged. “So?” he turned his attention back to Blitz.

“I’m not seeing anypony. Just got lazy is all. Probably some of it’s from the meds my doctor put me on after that last crash I had, too. I’ve been on some strong painkillers lately.” Blitz’s heart squeezed tightly in his chest for a moment as he anxiously watched Thunderlane’s reaction, though on the outside, he seemed nonchalant. When the stallion shrugged again, Blitz could feel his chest finally relax.

Thunderlane sighed, disappointed. “And here I was hoping you had a good story.” His disappointment quickly vanished as he looked at the mass of clouds Blitz was laying on. “Anyway, you done for today?” he asked, motioning to the pile.

Blitz swallowed the pooling saliva in his mouth and took a quick breath. “Yeah, I just have to bust these clouds up and I’m done.”

“Damn…” Thunderlane looked out towards a still cloudy section over Ponyville. “I’ve been slacking too much today…Well, I’ll see you later, Blitz.” He gave a quick wave a dashed off.

“Yeah, see ya…” Blitz muttered softly before collapsing back on the cloud. “That was close…”

------------------------------

Blitz stood outside the library, feeling a familiar anxiety as he stared at the door. After he left work, he remembered why he had been upset earlier. Now that he was here, he would have to talk with Dusk about lying to him, which needless to say, he didn’t feel like doing.

Taking a deep breath, Blitz opened the door. “Dusk, Barb, I’m back…” he called out.

Barb was across the living room pulling books off the bottom shelf. “Hey, Blitz,” she replied with a small wave of her hand without actually looking up from her work.

“Where’s Dusk?” he asked. Unconsciously, some of his irritation slipped into his voice, which drew the little dragon’s attention.

She sighed and pointed upstairs.

Blitz gave her a nod and started to his coltfriend’s bedroom. Just as he made it to the first step, he heard Barb call out to him, “Just don’t get too loud.”

“That depends on his reasons,” Blitz muttered as he continued up the stairs. As soon as he reach the top, he saw Dusk sitting at his desk, scribbling something down with his new quill. Blitz let out a sigh and shook his head. “Typical. Can’t even be bothered to know I’m pissed…”

“Dusk.” Blitz took a step into the room. Though Dusk didn’t stop working, he noticed the unicorn’s ears turn towards him. He rolled his eyes and continued across the room. “You’d better stop working and listen to me…” he said with a growing irritation.

Dusk sighed and his quill fell still. “I know you’re probably mad—”

“So you’re not completely dense.”

Dusk turned his head and narrowed his eyes. “Let me explain before you get offensive.”

Blitz finally stopped next to Dusk’s desk. He stared down at his coltfriend for a moment, watching Dusk’s expression change from defensive to apologetic. Nodding Blitz took a seat next to Dusk. He put his elbow on the desk and propped his head up with his hoof. “Alright. You usually have a reason, so let’s hear it.”

“I know you’re upset because I forced you to go to work early—”

“I’m mad because you lied to me.” Blitz gave a deadpan expression.

“There may have been a little white lie in there…” A small, embarrassed smile appeared on Dusk’s face as well as a distinct red in his cheek. “I assure you though, I had a good reason.”

Blitz nodded again, though more from impatience this time. “And that’s what I’m waiting for…”

“I need you to promise that you will hear me out before making a judgement.” Dusk placed his hoof on the pegasus’s foreleg. “I’ve been gone all morning and most of the afternoon looking into this to make sure everything would work.”

Blitz rolled his eyes. “Just spit it out, Dusk.”

Dusk paused and took a deep breath. “I would like to go on a date this evening.”

Without even having a chance to think, Blitz growled and narrowed his eyes, which made Dusk wince. The fact that Dusk would even bring this up pissed him off because Dusk knew better. He knew Blitz wasn’t ready to be seen in public being intimate with another stallion. But just as he was about to explode and lay into him, Blitz stopped himself.

Certainly, Dusk knew he wouldn’t do it, so then why would he even ask? That question dug a Blitz and, for the moment, stopped him from tearing Dusk a new one. If he knew one thing about Dusk, it was that he was very purposeful. even the look in Dusk’s eyes told him that this wasn’t done on a whim. There was planning here.. “Maybe I should at least hear him out…”

“Alright, what have you been planning?” Blitz asked after taking a deep breath.

Dusk’s eyes brightened as he levitated the sheet he had been scribbling on before. “With the time and location, it makes perfect sense!” he said, excitedly.

Blitz looked over the paper. “Low attendance for last showing…In public but the feeling of seclusion…Late at night, so no pony should be around?” He lifted his head from his hoof and scratched into his mane. “What’s this for?”

“A movie!” Dusk’s eyes beamed. “I mean, I care for books much more, but movies have become a very popular couple activity in recent years.”

“You want to go to the movies? Tonight?” Blitz raised an eyebrow.

Dusk nodded, with a big grin on his face. “I did some research on the movie theater, pulling attendance records and interviewing some of the staff today. The last showing maybe has one pony in attendance and is usually cancelled due to no pony showing up!”

“I don’t know, Dusk…” Blitz placed his hoof to his chin. “I mean, the ponies working there could come in and—”

“That’s the beauty of it, Rainbow. It would just look like two friends, out catching a late night movie together. No pony would suspect a thing!”

“And if they catch you with your foreleg around me?” Blitz raised an eyebrow. He knew Dusk enough to know he wouldn’t be able to keep his hooves to himself. He could practically feel his foreleg around him already.

“I can contain myself, Rainbow.” Dusk rolled his eyes. “Besides, close proximity doesn’t imply an intimate relationship. I can sit next to you and enjoy being with you without everypony knowing we’re together.”

“So you won’t try and hug me or anything?” Blitz gave a skeptical eyebrow.

“It’ll be dark with a loud movie playing and just the two of us in the theater.” Dusk gave a sly smirk back. “If the usher comes in, I can pull my foreleg down, but I doubt he will.”

Blitz groaned to himself as he looked back at the list. “I still don’t know…” he muttered. He read over a few more points Dusk had. “I guess it is late at night. Most ponies go to sleep early…”

Dusk nodded. “Yes, it works out perfectly in theory.”

“In theory,” Blitz stressed.

“Well, the movie currently playing is older, so there’s a very likely chance no pony will go see it! By the time the movie ends, the streets will be empty so we can walk home together without anypony noticing, Rainbow.” Dusk slid next to Blitz, wrapping his foreleg around him in a half hug. “It will be a chance for us to spend some time together in a public setting while maintaining safety. I’m certain it will be fine.”

Blitz stared at the sheet of paper for a moment longer. Inside, he could feel a pit in his stomach. It didn’t take long for him to recognize this sensation, he was anxious. “I mean…”

“I’m sorry I lied this morning and I know I said I would let you move at your own pace with this, but I wanted to at least present an option for you.” Dusk set the paper down on his desk and turned Blitz to face him. He moved his head in closer until he was nose to nose with his coltfriend “If you don’t want to, we won’t. I won’t force you to go.”

Blitz sat there for a moment, letting the idea sit with him. The thought of a dark theater and being alone with his coltfriend was an appealing mental image. Besides, Dusk was right. if somepony saw them, they could easily play it off as two friends catching a movie. They had a good cover if anything happened.

As he debated, another thought came to mind. “I think all anypony needs is a little push sometimes…” his words from earlier echoed in his mind. Blitz swallowed his fear and gave a small nod.

This time, he would be the one to give himself that push. “What the hell, let’s give it a shot.” He immediately saw Dusk’s face light up and he squeezed Blitz tightly. “If we get caught though, I’m telling everypony we’re just friends, got that?” Blitz said with a strained voice.

Dusk loosened his grip and pulled back. There was a small frown on his face, but he gave a nod. “I would rather that not happen, but if worse comes to worse…”

Blitz sighed and frowned as well. After a moment, he wrapped his forelegs around Dusk and pulled him in for a quick kiss on the forehead. His hooves rubbed the stallion’s back, reassuringly. “I didn’t mean it like that. I’m just…worried.”

Dusk nodded. “I understand that. You’re not comfortable with this, but just try to be a little more optimistic. Things will go great tonight, I promise.” Dusk pulled his face back and gave a smile. “We’ll leave at ten, okay?”

“Yeah…” Blitz muttered, reluctantly.

------------------------------

As nightfall came and the time approached, Blitz was still nervous. In his mind, the nightmare scenario of being exposed was constantly replaying in his head. Dusk getting too carried away, an usher seeing them together, another pony in the theater catching them, each one ended the same. The shame and humiliation dug deep in his chest, even though he knew he shouldn’t feel that way. It was who he was, he shouldn’t have to feel ashamed of it. But, none the less, each time the scenario played out, he wanting to bury his head in his forelegs to hide from the shame.

“Rainbow?” Dusk called as he entered the living room. “Are you ready to go?”

Blitz looked up from his spot where he was laying on the floor. He sighed and got up. “I still don’t know about this, Dusk…” he said as he walked over to his coltfriend.

Dusk smiled and placed his hoof on Blitz’s shoulder. “If you don’t want to do this, we can cancel our plans for tonight.”

Blitz looked down at the floor for a moment. The anxiety was digging deeper into his chest now that they were mere moments from leaving, but something else was bothering him. This wasn’t like him and he knew it. Blitz furrowed his brow as he stared downward. He was the coolest pony in Ponyville and he never backed down from anything. Why was he scared of this?

Cool and confident was who he was. He had the courage to fight a dragon head on, so what was he scared of? That some ponies in town might see him and Dusk together? Dusk had this planned out—he knew what he was doing. All Blitz had to do was be himself. He just had to act cool and no pony would suspect a thing. Besides, he knew Dusk was looking forward to this and even though he was nervous, he was too.

With a deep breath, he lifted his head up. Dusk smiled at him and gently stroked his shoulder. Blitz could feel a confident smile come across his face. “Nah, we got a date tonight.” Dusk gave him a small pat and opened the door. The two then ventured out on their date.

After they left the library, Blitz realized along their walk just how beautiful the night was. A small breeze blew down the nearly empty streets carrying with it the smell of turning leaves and the harvest. It was calm and quiet, perfect for an evening together. The sky was clear and a serene light from the full moon was basking the town in an almost chilly white glow. The cool fall air, while a tad chilly, wasn’t distractingly so and made the night feel isolated. It was just the night Blitz could want.

“So, what movie are we going to see?” Blitz finally asked after a short while.

Dusk gave a small, condescending laugh. “I think you’ll enjoy it quite a lot.”

Blitz sighed. “It’s not some stupid chick movie, is it?”

Dusk rolled his eyes, still keeping a playful smile on his face. “I’m keeping it a secret until we get there. I know you’ll enjoy it though.”

As they came to the theater, Blitz could see the sign advertising the movie playing. In large, bold letters, it said “Derring-do and the Quest for the Sapphire Statue.” Blitz’s jaw nearly dropped. “When did they make a Derring-do movie?”

“It came about three months ago, but it has been in production for a few years. I thought you at least knew about it.” Dusk shrugged his shoulders.

“No! Seriously, I didn’t even have to read the books?”

Dusk shook his head. “I can assure you, the book will be better. Most movie adaptations have to cut—”

“Yeah, yeah…” Blitz rolled his eyes. “I wish I had known. I would have tried out for the role.”

Dusk giggled. “I can see it now, Rainbow.”

“Don’t laugh…” Blitz walked passed Dusk, turning a shoulder to him as he did. “You know I’d have been awesome as Derring-do.”

Dusk shrugged. “Probably. You do have plenty of experience acting, after all.” Dusk raised an eyebrow and smirked.

“S-shut up…” Blitz blushed. “Let’s just get the tickets and go in…”

------------------------------

As the screen turned black and credits began to scroll, Blitz stretched his forelegs into the air. As his forelegs lifted, he could feel Dusk’s hoof slide down his back.

The sound of a crunch came shortly after as the unicorn took a bite of some popcorn. “I liked it.”

Blitz shrugged. “It was pretty cool.”

Dusk laughed to himself. “Pretty cool?” He raised an eyebrow. “You were on the edge of your seat during the hat toss scene.”

Blitz laughed and nodded. After a few moment, he heard another crunch coming from Dusk. The sound seemed to echo in the theater, even over the music playing for the credits. Blitz took a quick glance around, finding not a soul besides them. With a small, content sigh, he leaned over into Dusk’s shoulder. “Hey, pass me some popcorn,” he whispered.

Dusk dropped some kernels into Blitz’s waiting hoof. As he shoved them into his mouth, he noticed someone standing to the side of him. He nearly jumped out of his seat, choking on the popcorn. He pounded his chest, coughing.

A young stallion took a step back as he looked at Blitz with a skeptical eye. Once the pegasus sat back in his seat, he sighed. “I’m sorry, but we’re going to be closing soon…” the teenaged colt said, trying to sound polite.

Blitz looked at Dusk, who had just popped some more popcorn into his mouth. The unicorn nodded and stood up. “It’s late, I understand,” he said after he swallowed. He gave the usher a friendly smile. “Let’s go, Rainbow.”

The usher stepped to the side and the two left. Once they were out of the theater, Blitz breathed a sigh of relief. “That was close…”

Dusk shook his head as he levitated some popcorn from the bucket he took with him. “He just wanted to clear us out, Rainbow.” Dusk popped a few of the kernels into his mouth. “I doubt he suspected a thing. I told you the theater often cancels the last showing, so he probably wanted to get home.”

Blitz shrugged. “I guess…He couldn’t of seen anything anyway, right?”

Dusk nodded his head as he munched.

As the two walked home through the empty streets, Blitz thought back to their time in the theater. The feeling of being somewhere unfamiliar while sitting so close and able to be intimate made his heart swell. The sensation of Dusk’s hoof on his shoulder and Dusk’s warmth against him, it was both thrilling and fulfilling. Ignoring the small interruption at the end, Dusk had been right, this evening went perfectly.

Blitz glanced behind them, finding the theater long since out of sight. The streets were still vacant and the houses around them were all dark. He looked forward finding it much the same. His gaze then turned upwards to see not a cloud or pegasus in the sky. Blitz smiled to himself when he realized it was just him and Dusk out this chilly fall evening.

He leaned over into Dusk’s side, causing the unicorn to look down at him in shock. “What are you doing?” Dusk asked, looking around.

“No pony’s around. It’s just you and me.” Blitz replied, nuzzling into Dusk’s neck. He could feel Dusk’s warmth push into him as the unicorn relaxed. His breathing slowed too, after the shock had worn.

He placed his head against Blitz’s as they walked. “This is nice,” Dusk said fondly.

“Yeah…” Blitz replied with the same soft, warm tone. “I’m glad we did this.”

“Me too, Rainbow.”

A small, devilish smirk appeared on Blitz’s lips as the library came into view. “I hope you’re not too exhausted though.”

Dusk smiled back. “I was thinking the same thing.”

------------------------------

Blitz tumbled down onto the bed and rolled onto his back. The plush surface and warmth of the bedroom felt divine against his chilled skin. But as cold as he might have been, he knew soon things would be heating up. After nestling himself further into the sheets, he looked up at Dusk just in time to see the glow his magic dying down. “Barrier?”

“Yeah,” he replied as he climbed onto the bed. “Can’t have her waking up to us, can we?”

“Yeah.” Blitz wrapped his forelegs around Dusk, pulling him down into a kiss. Their lips parted and soon their tongues probed one another’s mouth. Blitz could feel Dusk’s hooves slipping between him and the bed and squeezing him even tighter in their embrace.

When they finally broke from their passion, Blitz grabbed Dusk and rolled over so the unicorn was on the bottom. Blitz smirked as he stared down at his coltfriend, a victorious smile plastered across his face. “So, tonight was pretty awesome…and I wanted to thank you for coming up with the idea.” He placed his hoof on Dusk’s chest and stared trailing down his body.

The momentary shock of Dusk’s face faded and was replaced with amusement. “Funny, I wanted to give you a reward for being so brave tonight…” Dusk moved his hoof to Blitz’s cheek.

“No way, Dusk.” Blitz pushed back from him. “I already called dibs,” he said with a confident tone.

Dusk gave a half shrug. “I guess I can let my beautiful little mare have her way tonight,” he teased.

“Shut up.” Blitz rolled his eyes as he swung his hind legs over Dusk’s head. His muzzle was put face to face with Dusk’s crotch. The tip of coltfriend’s dick was just barely poking free from his sheath, begging Blitz to give it some attention.

The pegasus licked his lips and happily obliged. He kissed the flat head of his lover’s cock, circling the surface with loving strokes of his tongue. The soft flesh grew most stiff as he lapped at the surface. Slowly it pushed further out until it was poking its way into his lips. Blitz relented and let Dusk’s cock slide right inside his waiting mouth.

A small grunt and a buck of Dusk’s hips was all Blitz needed to know he was on the right track. He bobbed further down, Dusk’s swelling length, taking in more and more of his cock. It wasn’t long ago he struggled to take when a quarter of Dusk’s dick in his mouth, but now, he could take more than half of it without breaking a sweat. When he felt the head poking the back of his throat, Blitz pulled back.

Once free, he gasped for air. He laid his head down on Dusk’s stomach, his nose at the base of his coltfriend’s towering length. The wonderfully thick scent sent a shiver of delight down his spine. Blitz couldn’t resist, he stuck out his tongue and licked the black length, lovingly.

“Are you getting excited?” Dusk asked as he moved his hooves onto Blitz’s haunches. He could hear a small moan in agreement as he continued to fondle his coltfriend’s firm ass. It didn’t take long for him to feel something stiff poking him in the chest. Dusk couldn’t help but chuckle to himself when he realized what it was.

“I think we can both have our way, Rainbow.” Dusk said as he rolled Blitz over onto his side. He then used his magic to hoist the stallion’s backend towards the head of the bed. Poking out from between Blitz’s hind legs, a stiff, flesh-colored dick was practically begging for his touch. Using his magic again, Dusk angled Blitz’s cock towards his mouth. He wrapped his forelegs around Blitz’s body and took most of his length in one go.

Blitz gasped before shoving Dusk’s length back inside his mouth. He soon realized why Dusk had grabbed him as Dusk soon began thrusting his hips. Blitz didn’t mind the bit of rough treatment though, he was more than used to it and being used was thrilling in itself. He relaxed his throat and soon felt Dusk forcing his way down it. The feeling of being stretched from the inside as his coltfriend humped him mercilessly made Blitz’s whole body tingle.

All the while, he could feel Dusk tenderly sucking on his dick. The warm, wet confines of Dusk’s muzzle as he slowly bobbed along his length, taking him to the hilt each time was utterly divine. Dusk’s tongue eagerly stroked and stimulated his sensitive flesh, almost torturous in its ministrations. It took every ounce of willpower Blitz had not to buck his hips into Dusk’s face like Dusk was doing to him. He knew Dusk too well by this point to even try that.

Instead, he restrained himself and focused his own efforts on pleasing his lover. Dusk’s dick vigorously thrust inside him, forcing itself down to the hilt each time. He could feel every twitch and throb in his throat and Blitz loved every moment of it. Every time his lips met Dusk’s pelvis, Dusk would pause to let him lap at his cock with his tongue as he pulled out.

Soon, Dusk’s humping became more erratic and his thrusts more shallow. Blitz already knew what this meant, he could feel his lover’s cockhead flare inside him. It wouldn’t be long before Dusk let loose his load right into Blitz’s stomach. He let out a soft moan and wrapped his forelegs around Dusk. He squeezed him tightly and forced Dusk to hold himself deep inside Blitz’s throat.

Blitz was close himself. He could feel his release almost within his grasp. His hips instinctually bucked slightly as he inched closer and closer to climax.

Dusk moaned before he took Blitz’s dick out of his mouth for a moment. “Don’t swallow,” he commanded before finishing Blitz off. His tongue and quick bobs took Blitz straight to heaven as he exploded in Dusk’s mouth.

He was vaguely aware of Dusk desperately pulling back. His stallion kept his flared head held in his muzzle and with a few more quick bucks, he finally exploded inside Blitz’s mouth. Dusk’s thick, gooey cum filled his mouth. But just before he swallowed his lover’s seed, he remembered what Dusk told him.

Dusk pulled his dick free from Blitz’s mouth and quickly pulled him in for a hug. Blitz, still riding his high, was vaguely aware of Dusk pressing his lips to his mouth. By the time he realized what was happening, it was too late. He cringed as he felt even more cum pushed inside his mouth, mixing with the load he already had.

Blitz moaned in protest, but Dusk didn’t stop. He used his tongue to mix their seed together. He pushed and pulled it between their mouth and let his tongue dance with Blitz’s in a sea of their cum. Finally, after their semen had been mixed thoroughly, Dusk took half of their shared cum in his mouth and left Blitz with the rest.

Blitz swallowed what was left in his mouth with a visible disgust on his face. “I hate it when you do that!”

“I really don’t see how you—”

“Because it’s mine! It’s gross!” Blitz glared at him for a moment, but quickly let it go. He sighed and laid back on the bed. “I don’t care about swallowing yours, but mine’s just weird…”

“It’s just something kinky to do.” Dusk climbed on top of Blitz. He stared down into his pegasus’s eyes, though Blitz was clearly averting his gaze. “Don’t be like that, Rainbow,” Dusk said with a small, fake pout on his face.

Blitz rolled his eyes and laughed. “You’re such a jerk sometimes.” He wrapped his forelegs around Dusk and pulled him in for a kiss. The aftertaste of cum was still hanging on both their tongues. When they broke, Blitz cocked an eyebrow. “You’re still hard…”

“It’s because you’re so cute when you throw a little tantrum. I couldn’t help myself.” Dusk made a small hump against Blitz’s softening member.

The stiff, heavy warmth of Dusk’s cock against his own sent a surge of life through his own dick. Blitz blushed as he felt himself growing more stiff as Dusk pressed against him. Another small hump only added to the pressure on his dick. Blitz squirmed against his lover’s weight but it wasn’t any use. Dusk had him pinned.

He looked up into Dusk’s eyes with a meek look on his face. “You’re making me hard again…”

Dusk bent down to his ear and whispered, “Good.”

He nuzzled down into the crook of Blitz’s neck and lifted his weight off him. With a small thrust he let his still saliva soaked length rub against his lover’s cock.

Blitz let out a small moan. “Still a little sensitive down there…” he muttered.

“I know, that’s why it feels so good.” Dusk pressed the entirety of his length against Dusk, his balls resting against Blitz’s. He pulled his head from his lover’s neck and stared down at their cocks with an almost triumphant smirk. Blitz was rock hard again, and his dick was pressed firmly against Dusk’s.

A soft, magenta glow appeared around their dicks, holding them together tightly. Once bound, Dusk started humping. The slick texture of his lover’s length against his own sent a tingle down his spine. Though smaller in length, Blitz certainly wasn’t lacking in thickness. Pressed together, he was nearly as wide as Dusk.

Blitz let his head fall limp against the bed as Dusk moved. Something so stiff and warm pressed against his sensitive cock felt amazing. With Dusk on one side and his own body heat and fur on the other, it almost felt like Dusk was smothering his dick. But the thrusts were what truly felt good. The slick sensation of their precum and saliva from earlier were utterly divine. “This is the first time we’ve done something like this…”

“What do you think?” asked between breathes.

Blitz moaned as a spike of pleasure shot through him. “Feels nice, but I’d rather do something else.” He smirked.

“Something else, huh?” he asked, feigning contemplation for a minute. ”Did you want me inside you, Rainbow?”

“Yeah…I want you to fuck me.”

Dusk stopped and his magic disappeared. “Then roll over.”

Dusk pulled his weight off him and let Blitz roll over onto his stomach. His back legs stood up while he kept his chest pressed into the bed. Once up, he then lifted his tail and glanced back at Dusk with a hungry glance. “Ready when you are,” he said in a lusty tone.

A sudden cool sensation touched his backdoor, making Blitz arch his back. He could feel Dusk’s magic coating his entrance in lube. A low moan slipped past his lips as he felt the slick goo pushed inside him and coat his inner walls. The delightful cooling sensation mixed with the tingle of Dusk’s magic made Blitz’s dick throb.

It wasn’t long before he heard Dusk breathing over his shoulder. “Put it in,” he begged. Dusk quickly obliged. Blitz was soon greeted with the thick head of his coltfriend’s cock pushing at his ass. He let out a small moan from Dusk teasing him with a few shallow thrusts. But each push of his cock, he could feel more and more slip inside him.

He felt Dusk’s muzzle brush against his ear. “Here it comes,” he warned.

Blitz took a deep breath and let his body relax. As he exhaled, Dusk started his way inside him. His coltfriend’s thick dick slid in easily, making Blitz gasp. He could feel a sense of fullness fill his stomach. It was a sensation he came to love. The feeling of being stretched and filled by his lover was simply incomparable to anything he had done with a mare before.

Dusk continued to steadily feel Blitz more of his cock. He let out a small moan when he felt his coltfriend’s medial ring pressing against his entrance. Blitz took another, smaller breath to relax further. With a small push by Dusk, he could feel his ass stretch further. He let out another small, girlish moan and Dusk placed a kiss on his neck.

“You’re doing so good, Rainbow,” Dusk whispered.

Blitz nodded.

Finally, he felt Dusk’s hips meet his ass. He was already panting just from the entry. But, as much as Blitz waited for Dusk to start pounding his ass, he didn’t. Dusk only continued to nuzzle his neck. “What are you waiting for?” he asked.

“Nothing.” Dusk wrapped one of his forelegs around Blitz’s chest and pushed him down until he was sprawled out on the bed. “I just wanted to say how proud of you I am.” Dusk pulled his dick out of Blitz just passed his medial ring and thrust it back inside.

Blitz moaned into the sheets as he felt a hard thrust from his lover. Dusk’s hard cock pressed against his prostate, sending a delightful tingle that he had come to adore shooting through his body. When Dusk hilted inside him once more, he didn’t pause this time. He immediately withdrew and thrust in again.

“Proud of me?” Blitz asked between moans.

“Yeah. You did so well tonight.” Dusk pressed his muzzle into Blitz’s mane, breathing in deep his lover’s scent. Blitz’s natural scent and the smell of his sweat made Dusk’s dick throb with yearning. “I love you, Rainbow.”

Blitz buried his face into the mattress. Dusk’s assault on his ass sent wave after wave of pleasure shooting through his body. Everything done to him felt so good. The feeling of his ass stretched around Dusk’s cock, the sensation of his coltfriend’s warmth inside him, the pressure on his stomach and prostate—he loved being fucked and he loved the way Dusk fucked him.

He could feel Dusk’s muzzle leave his mane, and soon he felt the tickle of his breath against his ear. “You’re so beautiful, Rainbow.”

“You always say that when you’re fucking me…” he muttered between pants. His breathing quickened with the pace of Dusk’s sharp thrusts. Every time Dusk hilted inside he, he felt the air forced from his lungs, like it was being fucked out of him. At this rate, Blitz new Dusk was going to cum soon.

He tightened his muscles, and squeezed Dusk tightly inside him. He could hear his stallion moan in his ear. “You want it badly, don’t you?”

Blitz nodded. The force and frequency of Dusk’s thrusts were pushing him closer and closer to the edge. Dusk slid his foreleg from under him and began thrusting harder and faster. His whole body felt delightfully numb. Finally, the burning hot sensation of his lover’s cock grinding against his prostate pushed him over the edge. Blitz cried out and another orgasm took him.

Though Blitz was cumming, Dusk didn’t stop, he thrust harder and harder, basking in the sensation of his mare’s ass as it milked him. It was too much for Dusk to bear. Blitz’s ass was squeezing him so tightly and the twitch of his prostate as he orgasmed pushed him over the edge. Dusk hilted inside Blitz and let loose his orgasm deep inside his lover.

Blitz felt another jolt of pleasure shoot through him when a sudden torrent of sticky warmth began to fill his ass. He let out an almost whine as he nuzzled into the mattress. When Dusk collapsed on top of him, basking in the afterglow of his orgasm, Blitz became painfully aware of a gooey mess under his belly.

“I think we need a bit of cleanup…” he said with a small laugh.

“Probably,” Dusk replied, rubbing his cheek against Blitz’s back.

“You want to take care of this so we can go to bed? I’m exhausted…”

Dusk laughed to himself. “Yeah.”

Blitz noticed a soft, magenta glow fill the room for a moment and then, the slimy mess under him was gone. The weight of his coltfriend soon vanished too as Dusk rolled over off of him.With another spark of Dusk’s horn, he sound found their blanket on top of them and his pillow in front of his face. “That works,” he said with a small, satisfied yawn. He rolled onto his back and cozied up to Dusk.

“You were amazing tonight, Rainbow.” Dusk wrapped his forelegs around Blitz and placed a small kiss on his forehead. “I wasn’t too rough with you, was I?”

“Nah.” Blitz closed his eyes.

“Good.” Dusk sighed, contently.

“Tonight was pretty awesome though. The date, the movie, the sex…all of it.”

“I’m really proud that you decided to go tonight. I was worried you would be satisfied with where you are now and never tell anypony. But going out tonight I think was a big step. It let you see that being in public wasn’t so bad, right?”

“Yeah…” Blitz muttered. It was true. While he might not have been too open outside, it was still a date. He had gone out of an actual date with his coltfriend and everyone could see them. Nothing bad happened to them, they weren’t found out, and no one said anything to Blitz about it. Everything was normal.

It hadn’t felt wrong either. Being with Dusk in public was about as right as being with Dusk had felt in the first place. Maybe, he was ready to be open. Maybe he could let those closest to him know about his secret.

Blitz sighed. “Dusk?”

“Yes?”

“I think I want to tell our friends…”

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah…"
