"Hey, hey. Are you listening?"

"Mm."

"What should we do? I'm a bit sleepy, but I'm still ready fer.....any...anything."

"Maybe you should just go to sleep for a while, yeah?"

"Nooooooooo."

Rainbow Dash dribbles lazily on Anon's shoulder, staining it in the process. He felt some light chewing as more and more of his body was being held by her wandering hooves. He monitored his breathing and he closed his eyes, keeping a calm mind. Rainbow Dash's breath felt icy under the wet stain that she made on his shirt, and her hooves started to wander to indecent places.

"Cmon, just a feel, it won't hurt right?" She whispered to his ear.

"I'd rather not." He replied.

"And what made you think that you had other options?"

"The thought that I can pin you down easily." He muttered.

Swiftly, she moved around to face Anon, with the rainbow streak-laden bedsheet wrapped around her body like an alluring cocoon, covering her whole body and leaving her face visible.

"You see, you're in my property right now. That means that I can do whatever the buck I want to whoever the fuck I like."

"..."

"Ya hear that? I just used your hooman language!"

"Yeah."

Rainbow Dash sat on Anon's lap, brushing across his torso. She looked up to him, smiling sweetly like an angel. Innocence was a strong suit for all mares, especially when it can be used to deceive other ponies. This one, wanted nothing more than to just rut  with no protection until she felt satisfied.

That being said, Anon wouldn't be that willing to just simply do it for no reason at all. Not because of the fact that he would be committing a sexual relationship with another sentient species..no, it was a much simpler reason. But despite all this, despite all the erotic stories that he has read before, despite all the adult sites that he's regularly visited to...

Actually having sex with another being for real seemed to be scarier than just doing it alone.

Usually, he expected the male character to just blatantly agree with Rainbow Dash's proposal and just get it over with, but now that the male character's role has been thrown to him, he can't seem to find the right words nor the right actions to do anything properly.

And there he was, sitting on the side of the bed whilst a full grown mare willingly offers sex to him.

"Dash." He held her head, pulling down the covers to show her colourful mane.

"Hmmmm?" She smiles, pressing her body close to his.

"Just go to sleep, alright?"

"Why?" She furrows her eyebrows.

"Please, just do it." He forced a smile.

"Why?! Why won't you say yes?"

"Do you really expect me to fuck you and then act like nothing's happened the next day?"

"Yes! Isn't this every stallion's dream?"

"Well I'm not a damn stallion."

"Well you should be!" She shouts, punching his chest. Anon flinches in pain.

"What the fuck does that mean?!" He snapped back.

"Why couldn't you have been a stallion, huh? Why'd you have to be this...thing! You're too tall for me, you have weird hairstyles and you don't act like a gentlecolt at all!" She shouts back, tears welling up in her eyes. "Have you not heard about everypony speaking about you? About how strange you are? About how strange the ponies around him are? All of us are like gossip when we turn our backs to them!"

"Is that all you care about? Your damn pride?"

"I'm prideful, dammit!" She punches him again, knocking the wind out of Anon's chest, forcing him onto the bed.

Rainbow Dash clambers over him, teary eyed and with cheeks that are swollen with red. Each punch she gave made her feel slight pleasure as the vibrations rocked her body. She clearly enjoyed this, even though she wasn't supposed to.

Anon coughed violently, cursing whoever is God in this world for making a pony so strong. He could see the scattered face of Rainbow Dash angrily crying on top of him.

"Why don't you just leave me alone then. Distance yourself from me if you have to." He sniffled.

"Don't you fucking get it? I'm the damn element of loyalty!" She screams. "I don't leave a friend behind, even if it's a terrible one."

"Terrible? You can fucking talk." He snarled.

"Wha-"

"You're a complete nuisance to me, and then you stick to me like glue if I try to rid myself of you. Just what is your deal?" He holds Rainbow Dash and flips her on the bed, switching their positions. "You act like a complete ass when you have to, and then when I try to lash out at you, you'd just ditch me and then come back later!"

He grips her legs tightly, keeping her in place. "What exactly am I to you? Why do you have to always be at my side? Why?" His eyes started to sting badly and his nose started to run.

"I....*sniff*...I just don't get it."

His grip eased as he cried quietly. He felt like harming her for an answer, but that would just be a one way trip for him to go straight to hell if anyone else found out about it. He wanted to release it, to vent his frustration that she caused, but he couldn't find an outlet.

He wasn't going to find any answers if this dragged out longer than it should. All he could do now is to just let go for a while and to relax. Fighting wasn't going to do anything, and leaving things like this was as good as it could get, even though he would be finishing it without any answers.

Anon simply flopped down to Rainbow Dash's side as the two quietly cried in peace.

A few hours passed, causing the room to darken as the sun routinely sets in the horizon. Anon stares at the cloudy wall, unresponsive. Rainbow Dash lays by his side, looking at him. Her mane was ruffled and it covered one half of her head like a colourful mask.

She had a few more days left until her condition was about to pass, but right now she felt as if she never had it at all. Though, she still feels somewhat sensitive, and her mood has simmered down, little by little as the time goes on. Quietly she puts one of her hooves on Anon's chest, rubbing it gently.

"Are you done crying?" She croaked as she turned her body to face him.

Anon blinked, but gave no reply. He simply turned his face to stare at her sorrowfully.

"I'll take that as a yes." She forced a smile.

Anon moved away her dishevelled mane, neatly fixing it. Rainbow Dash watched as he touched her softly. She felt him cup her cheek, squeezing it lightly as he looked her in the eyes. It didn't fit, It didn't fit at all. His face showed that he wanted nothing to do with her, but his actions wanted to make her feel warm and comfortable in his embrace.

"I'm gonna ask you something, and you have to answer it, okay?" He spoke.

"Okay." She replied.

"....Why are you still with me?"

"...What?"

He took in a deep breath and sighed heavily, right before getting up. "I've seen the way you look like when a picture is taken with me in it. I know that I'm the reason why. I just can't fit the pieces together to explain why you're so.....confusing." Anon held one of the pictures on the shelves, frowning as he looked at it longingly.

Rainbow Dash sits up, looking away in guilt.

"Please, for the love of God, tell me." He whispered. "Please."

"I...it's just a thing that you wouldn't understand. You could never understand it, even if you tried to." She mumbled.

"And how would you kn-"

"Because you know nothing about mares and how they feel. You know nothing about them and you just locked yourself here with one that's in heat. You're a real moron, you know that?"

"..."

"I was told time and time again: You'll find the perfect stallion! It's just that finding him is much harder to do. I hate not getting what I want, and I abandoned all that within months of me hearing it." She sniffled. "And you know what's worse? Every damn time I go and soar the skies, there's always one pesky couple that I see, being all lovey dovey and all that crap."

Anon watched her wiping tears off her eyes.

"I wanted to be a wonderbolt! And look what's happened to me now....I'm just a deadbeat pegasus who sticks to her friends who feed and entertain her." Suddenly, she points to Anon. "And then you decide to come along from that damn portal in the tree. All my friends devoted their attention to you, and I just stand on the side."

"I never thought about it like that." Anon said.

"You stole my spot, and I hated you for it."

"Sorry then."

"And...and...it gets worse because you start to become a better friend to me than you are to them!" She screams.

"...W-what?"

"Your damn kindness, your stupid generosity and that stupid hairstyles that you always make every time I meet you...you just never stop do you?!"

"I-I'm not getting this."

"You make me feel all weird and stupid when I'm around you and it drives me crazy! But the worse thing is, is that I can't get enough of it!" She glares at him with teary eyes. "I can't help it okay? It's all your damn fault!"

"Dash..." Anon whispers.

"My chest hurts when I'm away from you, my mind starts to worry where you are, my hooves start sweating and I feel like punching you. I don't get it!"

She flies to his face, her cheeks blistering with red and with a mouth that looked like it was gritting teeth.

"I...I need your stupid touch...I want to feel you petting my head with that stupid hand of yours...I want to feel what the other mares felt." She grumbled. "Please.....my body hurts..."

Anon hugged her and held her close, rubbing her wings gently. "There there...."

"Just something....anything....do some human magic....anything to make this go away." She cried.

Anon held her close and move back towards the bed, laying her on her back as he climbs in. He could see her panting heavily, with a look of frustration on her face.

"It really gets to you...doesn't it?" Anon said. She whimpers in response.

Anon settles himself again by her side, using his hands to bring Rainbow Dash closer to him.

"I guess we can snuggle." He said.

"...Will that help?" She asks.

"I think so. But if I feel you reaching down anywhere below my waist...then I'll throw you out of the window myself."

"Being in heat sucks."

"I wish I could say the same."
