Well, as expected Dad was not only excited about me having friends to spend the night with. Them all being girls made him much more so. Naturally, he congratulated me for attracting a group of girls and told me to have fun. Thankfully, the hidden message in that will most likely not happen. I left my house with a backpack filled with everything I needed and had. I pulled out my phone and checked the text Pinkie sent me showing Sunset's address. Well, here I am going on a sleepover with a group of attractive girls. Some that have shown to be at least somewhat attracted to me and a couple more than others. Let's do this. I nervously walked up to what I hoped was Sunset's apartment door and knocked on it. I took a relaxing breath, before the door opened, revealing Sunset, wearing purple pajamas, with a symbol of a red and yellow sun and purple slippers. To my relief, instead of being annoyed, she seemed happy and excited to see me. Maybe too excited.

"Nice to see you decided to show up," She greeted me with a smile, "Come on in. The others are already here and are changing into their pajamas," She finished, leading me inside.

Her apartment was big enough for us to have fun and looked incredibly nice. Not only did she have a nice T.V., but she also had an expensive computer with two monitors. It was already surprising enough she was able to afford an apartment, but also all of this furniture.

"Like the place?" She asked me.

"Yeah, how did you afford all of this?" I asked.

"Things were tough when I first arrived in this world and had to find a way to scrape by. Once I found out gems were more valuable here, I waited for the opportunity to return to Equestria, where said gems are more plentiful. Once I had enough to relax, I got this place and a part time job, which I used to save up some extra money on the side. The revenue from my gaming streams also helps give me a little extra spending money."

"Gaming streams?" I questioned as I noticed her collection of games and gaming systems.

"Yeah, I usually live stream showing off my skills. You should look me up. I was thinking of getting Fluttershy to join me one day to try and get her into it." She told me.

Before I could respond, the rest of the girls emerged from the bathroom, wearing their pajamas and slippers. In coming hug in three two one.

"Marky!" Pinkie exclaimed before rushing towards me and tackling me into a hug, "You came!"

"Yes, you invited me."

"I know!" She exclaimed, tightening her embrace, "I'm just so happy to see you."

"Settle down Pinkie," Rarity told the energetic girl, while walking right up to us.

Pinkie stuck her tongue out but got off of me. Rarity held out her hand and helped me up, before lightly embracing me.

"Like Pinkie said, it's wonderful to see you here."

"Right."

Rarity let go of me and the rest of the girls walked right up to us.

"Sup dude. Couldn't resist spending time with hot girls your age all alone," Rainbow teased me with a wink and she even adjusted her shirt making her assets more apparent from underneath.

"Of course not. Why? Are you offering Dashie?" I responded, making her lightly blush a little for a brief moment.

"Don't get ahead of yourself," Was her teasing remark, "You want it? You gotta earn it."

"Settle down Rainbow. I know you are getting turned on, but try to control yourself," Applejack told her with a teasing grin.

"Turn on? Why would I be turned on?" Rainbow denied while looking away with an embarrassed blush.

"I thought you said whenever he does this you get turned on," Applejack responded with a larger grin.

"No! When did I say that?" Rainbow asked sheepishly.

"During your little speech before the friendship games. You should have listened to him and mumbled away from the microphone." Applejack told her before chuckling.

The other girls and I joined along, while Rainbow groaned and covered her face. After a moment, she calmed down.

"Well, I wasn't being serious. I was just joking around."

"Sure, you were," Applejack responded in disbelief before turning towards me, "Now that we are done having a little fun at Rainbow's expense. Why don't we get started?"

Sunset nodded, "The pizza should be here soon. Until then why don't we relax and maybe play some games."

"Oh." Rainbow began before giving me a predatory stare, "Why don't we play truth and dare? Now that we have a boy here, I am sure it will be much more fun."

"Figures you would want a chance at payback Rainbow," Applejack deadpanned.

"Come on! I know you can't resist the fun we all could have."

"Yeah, I'll give you that one." Applejack admitted.

"I have no objections," Sunset announced before the rest of the girls agreed to it.

Great, I have to survive a game of truth or dare with a girl out to get payback for embarrassing her. Bring it on Dashie! I will be sure to dish it out as much as I can take it.

The girls and I were sitting in a circle on the floor. I was currently in my pajamas and despite Rainbow's insistence I changed quickly, I took my sweet time just to annoy her a little more. I know it will only make her go harder on me with her dares, but I welcome it. I actually enjoy this little game of ours where we try to embarrass each other. I was sitting between Sunset and Twilight. The latter was wearing her hair in a ponytail with a purple star scrunchy. Her new style really suits her better than her bun.

"Why don't we have our male guest pick first?" Rainbow suggested.

"I have no problem with that, as long as Rainbow isn't the one to decide my question or dare," I responded.

The other girls nodded at both of our suggestions, annoying the rainbow haired girl.

"Seriously, girls. I figured you all would be on my side. Us girls should stick together." Rainbow complained.

"Tough luck Dashie. You have to wait for your opportunity." I told her with a grin.

"Are you sure you want to mess with him, Rainbow?" Applejack asked, "In my experience he always finds a way to turn it back on you."

"Please, he just keeps getting lucky."

"And it turns you on," Applejack teased with a grin.

Rainbow only groaned and rubbed her face in defeat.

"May I give him his options?" Rarity asked.

The other girls, including Rainbow nodded.

"Alright Marcus darling truth or dare?"

"I guess to help you girls learn more about me, truth."

"Which one of us do you think is the most attractive?"

Getting there already? Figures, Rarity would ask that kind of question. After pondering a few seconds, I came up with the perfect answer.

"Dashie, of course!" I began making said girl look at me, "With her perfect rainbow hair. I have always loved looking at rainbows as a kid and seeing a girl with one is a dream come truth. How unbelievably awesome she is and her fun playful personality. The thing that sealed the deal was her saving my life," I finished making Rainbow smirk with a light blush while the other girls looked stunned, with Pinkie, Rarity and to a lesser extent Sunset looking a little sad.

"Well, figures you couldn't resist me," Rainbow bragged, sounding pleased.

"Seriously though."

"What?" Rainbow asked, annoyed and a little heartbroken, "You were just kidding with what you said?"

I shook my head, "No, Dashie. Not entirely. All of the compliments are true. It's just I can't actually pick between all of you. You're all equally attractive to me in different ways."

This calmed Pinkie, Rarity, Sunset, and Rainbow down while the rest of the girls were flattered and even happy in some cases.

"Alright then. Well, when you decide, you better pick me," Rainbow told me.

"So, you're interested?" I asked.

"Like I said don't get ahead of yourself," Rainbow responded before looking away with an embarrassed blush.

"Alright then. Rainbow truth or dare?" I asked.

"Dare. Bring it on," she told me with a challenging grin.

After pondering for a few seconds, I came up with the perfect dare.

"I dare you to place one finger deep in your ear and one in your mouth. After thirty seconds you switch the positions of the fingers."

Rainbow's grin fell after she heard my dare, while Applejack, Pinkie and Sunset chuckled. Rarity seemed disgusted, while the rest of the girls only blinked in surprise.

"Must you make such a disgusting dare Marcus darling?"

"Rainbow wanted a challenge and she got it," I answered before turning towards Rainbow, "What's wrong Dashie? Too much for you?"

Rainbow groaned before she gave me a determined look, "Bring it on. This is nothing," she told me determined, before sticking her fingers in her ear and mouth.

After thirty seconds, she switched them and groaned at the terrible taste.

"How qone do a havw tw qeep em n?" Rainbow asked.

"You can take them out now," Was my answer.

Rainbow removed them and gave me a smirk, "Impressive first dare. If it was anyone else, they wouldn't have done it, but as you can see, I can handle anything you dare me to."

"In your own words Dashie, don't get ahead of yourself," I responded making her lightly blush, "I assume you are picking me."

"Of course. Whichever one you pick, I have the perfect response," she told me with a cheeky grin.

"Since I'm nice enough not to rip away a chance for you to dare me a second time, dare."

"Ok. I dare you to kiss Pinkie on the lips for a full ten seconds," she told me with a larger grin.

I felt my face heat up, as her dare brought back memories of Pinkie kissing me after that fancy party. I did want to feel her soft lips again and this was the opportunity.

"Yippie!" Pinkie cheered before she rushed right up to me with the biggest grin on her face, "Thank you Dashie! You are the best!" She exclaimed before pulling out lip balm from her hair and quickly applied it, "Come on! Pucker up Marky!"

I took a relaxing breath, as we got closer and closer to each other and when our lips connected, I felt a spark. Her lips felt even better than I remembered and due to the ten second timer, I could enjoy it for a longer period. A few seconds into it, I felt her tongue on my lips, before it entered my mouth and gently wrapped around my own, making me moan. I don't quite know what came over me, but I began to playfully tongue wrestle with her. I began to enjoy the taste of her mouth. It was like every sweet known to man combined together. Pinkie moaned as I pinned her tongue down and explored her mouth.

"Alright you two," Rainbow began amused, "Ten seconds have passed quite a bit ago. While I didn't say use tongue, I didn't say you couldn't."

Rainbow's words snapped us back into reality and we separated from each other. Rainbow had an amused grin on her face, along with Twilight, Fluttershy and Applejack. Rarity and to a lesser extent Sunset seemed to be jealous.

"You seem to be a good kisser dude, huh Pinkie?" Rainbow asked.

"Yeah," Pinkie simply said in a daze.

"You put her in a daze," Rainbow commented with a chuckle, "Not bad stud. I have to admit I'm a little jealous. Anyway, your turn."

"To prevent us from going back and forth without bringing the others into the game, I am not picking you this time." I commented.

"That's fine. We can switch on which turn we give the other a break," Rainbow nodded.

Before I could pick which girl I wanted to choose, there was a knock on the door.

"The Pizza is finally here," Sunset told us before getting up," I'll be right back."

"Let's take a break and eat, then we can get back to it," Rainbow suggested.

We all agreed to it and waited for Sunset to appear with dinner.

I tried my best to hold still, as Rarity blew on my freshly painted nails.

"How was your manicure?" Rainbow asked me.

"How was it giving a generic boring dare?" I asked with a cheeky grin.

"He's got you there, Rainbow," Applejack commented with a chuckle.

"Yeah, well the next one will be more exciting to you," Rainbow responded annoyed, before she adjusted the fancy dress, I dared her to wear and rubbed the make-up Rarity added just for fun, "Besides, the dress wasn't?"

"Your screaming and begging to change it said otherwise," Was my response, making her blush dark red in embarrassment.

"I'm afraid Marcus has you beat Rainbow," Rarity commented, as she instructed me to switch hands, "He can dish it almost as well as you and he can take it much more than you can."

"Who asked you?" Rainbow asked bitterly.

"Just pointing out the obvious darling. I mean it was funny seeing the proud Rainbow Dash beg me for mercy, especially after I decided to add all the make-up in addition to the dress."

"Yeah, well on my next break from him, I am after you Rarity,"

"Noted," Rarity simply responded.

"Well, Rainbow, you were right. Having him here is making the game more fun," Applejack commented with a chuckle and smile, "More fun in seeing you get taken down a peg."

"Oh, shut up. I will change it with a big one soon."

Rarity finally finished doing my nails and she did a great job with the color wheel design.

"Took you long enough Rarity," Rainbow grumbled.

"Like I told you before, perfection can't be rushed, and he asked me for a design that required me to take it slow."

"We have been playing for a couple hours already," Sunset told us while checking her phone, "Why don't we have him end it and we can play another game."

The girls and I agreed, while Rainbow groaned, but reluctantly agreed.

"Fine. Since it's the last one, feel free to get back at me. Just make it good," Rainbow challenged me.

I simply gave her a smirk that actually made her flinch, "You asked for it."

"Whatever it is. I can handle it. After the dress and make-up nothing can phase me," She bragged, raising a fist in the air, "Go ahead and dare me."

"Fine. I dare you to kiss me for ten seconds like Pinkie."

Rainbow's eyes widened and her entire face turned bright red, "What?"

"You heard me. You have been teasing me earlier and you said you can handle anything. Now put your money where your mouth is and do it."

"Besides, it turns you on when he does this," Applejack added chuckling.

"I... It...." Rainbow stuttered before taking a relaxing breath, "Fine. Just don't expect me to use my tongue. You have to work for that."

"So, you admit that could happen in the future."

"I... Uh... You know what I mean," She groaned as she got closer to me.

She quickly placed her lips on mine and while they weren't as soft as Pinkie's, they were still fairly so. In the middle of the session, I felt her rub her tongue on my lips, but she didn't enter my mouth, making me moan in annoyance and I could have sworn she smirked in response. In retaliation, I rubbed my tongue on her lips and to my amusement and slight shock, she moaned. I could have sworn her mouth opened for a brief moment, before she closed it shut. We finally separated and she raised her fist in the air.

"I told you I can handle any dare you send my way," She bragged.

I playfully rolled my eyes in response.

"How was the kiss Rainbow?" Applejack asked with a teasing grin.

"Oh. It was alright I guess," Rainbow answered dismissively.

"We all could see you teasing him with your tongue and moaning when he returned the favor Rainbow." Applejack told her with a chuckle.

"Yeah, well. Fine, it was actually nice," Rainbow admitted before turning towards me, "Hope you enjoyed it. Don't expect it to happen again anytime soon."

I don't know whether to be annoyed Rainbow is playing hard to get, or happy she isn't as upfront with her liking me, like Pinkie and Rarity are.

After that fun game, Sunset offered to let us play one of her fighting games, which most of us gladly agreed to. For the next hour or so, I enjoyed constantly beating Rainbow.

"Again," Rainbow challenged me after her one hundredth loss.

"Fine after I get back from the bathroom, but this is the last time," I responded getting up.

"Fine. Just hurry up."

After my quick bathroom break, I noticed Rainbow speaking with the other girls with a devilish grin on her face. When I got closer the rest of the girls nodded at her, though most of them seemed reluctant.

"During your bathroom break, I got the idea to make this more interesting," Rainbow told me.

"How so?" I asked.

"Well, since it's the weekend, tomorrow we are going to be hanging out together and I figured why not have you join us."

"What does this have to do with your final match?"

"I was getting to that. If you manage to beat all of us at one match, I'll wear that dress you had me wear, make-up and all and if one of us wins, you do." Rainbow told me with a grin, "What do you say?"

"Do you think I'm dumb?" I asked.

"No?"

"Why would you think I would agree to that? I'm outnumbered seven to one, meaning you girls have seven chances to win compared to my one. What kind of fool would agree to that?"

"Well... Maybe we can spice things up for you?" Rainbow suggested.

Rarity slowly walked right up to me and gently rubbed my chin, "You make a great point darling. Intelligence is one thing I like in a boy," She told me flirtishly, "I know you can do it, despite the odds darling and if you do, I am more than happy to reward you," She finished, licking her lips.

I was too stunned to say anything and my whole face was red. I found myself drawn to her lips and despite only feeling them for a brief period and being more concerned about what happened after regaining consciousness, I recall enjoying the contact. After regaining my composure, I nervously nodded.

"Figures, it takes a flirty girl to get any boy to agree to something stupid," Rainbow said with a chuckle.

"Don't act like you've won Dashie," I responded before grabbing the controller, "Now get ready to lose again."

"We'll see," Rainbow told me with a smirk, "Like you said we have seven chances."

With what felt like a montage, I fought against the girls. I easily defeated Rainbow again, to her annoyance yet stubborn insistence it didn't matter. Rarity was also not a challenge and despite her words, I'm sure it was more due to her not playing video games at all. Applejack was more of a challenge, and she was clear that despite wanting me to win, she wasn't going to let me, which I respected. Fluttershy was surprisingly competent, but her clear lack of experience was her downfall. Even Sunset was impressed and looked forward to showing her more. Pinkie was, well being Pinkie, she kept being random, making it hard to adjust to her, but in the end, she went down when I decided to fight fire with fire, or randomness with randomness. Twilight was also an easy victory, though she also seemed interested in learning more about how to play.

"You may have won so far, stud, but we have our secret weapon. In case you didn't know Sunset has almost never lost, so enjoy your dress," Rainbow taunted me.

"Most of us don't agree with this and we won't force you to wear it, though Rainbow will hold it against you," Sunset assured me.

"Thank you, though you are acting like you've already won."

"Well, she was right about one thing. Just know whatever happens we won't make you do it. You just have to put up with Rainbow complaining."

"Hey! Why aren't you girls ever on my side against him?" Rainbow asked, annoyed.

"Because you are being petty in getting a win against him, instead of accepting he's your match, maybe even better than you," Applejack answered.

"Whatever."

"Shall we do this?" Sunset asked me.

"Yeah, I want my third kiss tonight."

"You aren't the only one who wants it darling," Rarity said, applying lipstick.

"Well, she seems confident in your ability," Sunset commented, grabbing the control, "Let's see if you can prove her right."

Sunset and I ended up having to do multiple rounds as we kept on getting ties. Somehow, we each end up knocking each other out with our attacks. The other girl's jaws were on the floor.

"How? Not just someone holding their own against Sunset, but the fact you can get a tie in a fighting game," Rainbow commented, causing everyone except Sunset and I to nod in agreement.

Finally, on our latest match I adjusted to her style. I managed to dodge a few powerful strikes of hers and retaliated in turn, getting an advantage. I heard her groan in anger.

"Oh. Is that how you want to play it? Fine, I'll get rougher," She growled out in frustration.

So, this is her infamous short temper. I don't really find it scary, as much as it's amusing and actually kind of hot.

I noticed her picking up the pace and becoming more deadly. I felt my heart pounding as I continued to dodge and counterattack her in turn. She did get a few lucky strikes, bringing our HP so close to zero for comfort. When she began to attack, I reacted as best as I could, and managed to dodge.

"Oh, come on! How'd you dodge that one? I got you!" She ranted before placing the controller down and raging into her hands.

Taking the opportunity, I attacked her, winning the match. I panted and calmed my beeping heart down, while she seemed to calm down enough to remove her hands. When she saw I won, she glanced from the T.V. to me a few times, while in a daze.

"Sunset?" I asked.

"Marry me," She mumbled.

"What?"

"Oh!" She began sheepishly while blushing darkly, "I mean that was amazing! Despite my little brief fit, I am actually glad to lose for once, especially against someone skilled."

"I wouldn't say that. I mean I do play quite a bit in my spare time."

"Modest too. That only adds to it."

"Yeah, yeah," Rainbow interrupted in annoyance, "Great, now I have to wear a dress tomorrow."

"Well, it was your fault Rainbow for being petty and not letting this go," Applejack told her.

"Whatever."

Rarity walked right up to me, "Great job darling. I knew you could do it," She then puckered her now bright red lips, "Now kiss me darling."

I took a relaxing breath before our lips connected. She didn't put her tongue in my mouth, but I didn't mind, as I found myself enjoying the feeling of her lips more than I did Pinkie's. We stayed like this for about ten seconds before letting go. Who would have thought tonight I would have kissed three attractive girls?

After a few more hours of fun, we finally decided to hit the hay. Pinkie grabbed sleeping bags from seemingly nowhere and handed them out. Everyone, except Sunset and I got one.

"Oops," Pinkie began innocently, "Looks like I forgot one. No worries, Marky. We can share," She finished with a smile.

Most of the girls and I gave Pinkie an unamused look, while Rainbow chuckled.

"Who would have thought Pinkie would pull something like this?"

"My bed has enough room for two," Sunset told us.

"So, one of us can sleep with you and give Marcus our sleeping bag," Applejack told us with a nod.

"Oh? Oh. Yeah, sure," Sunset responded sheepishly.

"Wait, you were thinking about having him join you?" Rainbow asked before chuckling, "Dude, you are a chick magnet."

Sunset and I both blush in embarrassment.

"You can always share with me, Marcus darling," Rarity told me with a wink, making my blush darken.

"I know how we can settle this," Pinkie told us, getting three straws from her hair.

"Ok. I will hold them, so Pinkie doesn't cheat," Applejack suggested, making said girl frown.

Should I be annoyed that they are making the decision without asking me? I guess not, since I won't be able to decide anyway. Though, Applejack's suggestion is tempting, just to mess with them a little and maybe tease them a bit. God, what's gotten into me? I have never been like this before. Applejack grabbed the straws and held them up, before each girl grabbed one. One by one they revealed the size, before Pinkie was shown to have the shortest one.

"Yippie!" Pinkie cheered, "Come on Marky. Let's get cozy."

I took a relaxing breath. I can't believe I am about to share a sleeping bag with an adorable girl. Just have to stay calm and enjoy it.

The sleeping bag was actually large enough that I didn't feel cramped with Pinkie, who seemed to relax into me while snoring away. This is actually really nice. Being snuggled next to her makes me feel warm and cozy. I closed my eyes, ready to fall asleep, when I heard movement. I opened my eyes and saw someone moving to the large window. Being too curious about this, I carefully got out, to prevent waking Pinkie up and walked to the window. To my slight surprise it was Rainbow, looking out at the night sky. She turned around and gave me a small smile.

"Couldn't sleep?" She asked me.

"I was about to, until I heard you. What are you doing?"

"Just thinking about tonight," She sighed.

"If this is about the dress, you don't..."

"I'm a girl of my word," She interrupted me before looking back out the window, "Not just that. It's just our relationship."

"What do you mean?"

"Our banter with one another. I have never met someone who could match me. Yes, I admit it, but don't tell the others I said it. Despite knowing you for a short time, I have gotten to like you and I have never felt that way before."

"You're confused and don't quite know how to deal with it."

"Yeah, and I wanted to tell you for quite a bit but didn't want to in front of the others. Look, Fluttershy has a brother named Zephyr and he has an obsessive crush on me. That's one reason I am against romance and hesitant to have anything to do with it."

"I figured you had a liking for me with your teasing and behavior, but to hear it like this..."

"That's my way of doing things. I have been one to confront things head on and I figured telling you and doing it that way to figure it out together would be my best bet, but I couldn't shame myself in front of the others. I was going to try and clear my head, but luck seemed to have given me this opportunity."

"What do you have in mind?" I asked.

"Look I am still against romance and am hesitant, so I don't really know."

"How about this? We just take it nice and slow and continue our usual behavior around the others, while having some time alone, where you can feel comfortable interacting with me however you want. We don't even have to officially be together. We can just be friends with benefits, if you want."

"You would be willing to do that?" Rainbow asked before smirking, "Oh who am I kidding. Who wouldn't with me," she bragged before embracing me, "Alright then. Just know like I said before, you have to work your way up to tongue. My parents are usually out on Thursday nights, so we can hang out in my room alone. You know since a few of others feel the same way, feel free to do the same with them."

"You don't mind?"

"Not like we are officially together. Besides, I know Pinkie and Rarity aren't ever going to give you up," Rainbow answered before pausing to look at the stars for a brief moment, "Not to mention, you are likely the only boy to ever get me to feel this way, so yeah, I am willing to share, if I have to, once we get there."

"I guess I can respect you trying to confront and solve this issue, instead of cowering behind it."

"Like I said that has always been who I am," Rainbow told me, "Now, what do you say we go back to sleep."

"Alright. Goodnight Dashie."

"Goodnight lover boy."

I blushed as I walked back to the shared sleeping bag, while pondering the conversation I had with Rainbow. I saw a different, more vulnerable side to her and yet also a courageous one as well. It must have been hard for her to admit what she did to me and yet she did it to help her get past a personal issue she has with relationships. The fact she had this one on her mind for quite a bit and was waiting for the chance to speak to me about it, was actually kind of scary. I have come to like her and enjoy our banter with one another. Not to mention how attractive she looks, so I am more than willing to help her out. Not just her. I do think all of these girls are attractive and despite only getting to know most of them a bit more, I am willing to eventually become more than friends with all of them. Geez, what's with me? Is that really the solution to my problem with attracting all of these girls? Form a harem? I mean I know I joked about it, but to actually do it. God, I need to think about it. Could I actually be falling for these girls? I mean I enjoyed the kisses I got today and... Yeah, I am going to stop thinking tonight and just get some sleep. I will figure this out later. I hope so.
