"why have you got a body pillow of yourself ?" >"Oh well...you see Anon, I bought this body pillow for you. I know how lonely you get at night, so I thought you'd enjoy having me in pillow form to keep you company.." "Aww, that's very sweet of you Casey. I love it." >her cheeks blushed slightly as she responded. >"Anon?......." "Yes Casey?" >"W-would you like to cuddle with me and the pillow tonight?.....We're both pretty plush...." >You had known Pillow Case for a few months now, and yet she still managed to surprise you with acts of the most extreme cuteness you'd ever experienced. From the way she blushed, to way her voice would occasionally squeak, her every action was the peak of adorability. >With a small smile you answered her question. "Why yes Casey, I'd love to cuddle you and your stuffed doppelganger. However....I don't think your bed is big enough for both of us to fit comfortably...." >She looked down, mumbling her next statement where you could barely hear her. >"C-could we sleep together in your bed maybe?..." >A small moment of silence passed as you thought of what to do next, lasting a few moments until Casey spoke again. >"It's alright if you don't want to, I don't want to be a bothe-r!" >Her sentence was interrupted by the feeling of your arms wrapping around both her and the pillow, as you picked them both up and began carrying them. "Onwards to the cuddle kingdom! Population you, me, and one pillow." >You heard her giggle as she rested her head on your shoulder and that filled your heart with joy. The way she let you carry her let you know that she completely trusted you. Considering her life up until this point, you understood why....   >Be Pillow Case >It has been a few months since Anon first found you cold, alone, and living in a box. >After moving to Earth from Equestria, your own naiveté had cost you quite a lot of money. >Stupid exchange rates. >After many fruitless tries to get a job and find a place to live, you were stuck in a cardboard box in a random alleyway. It was cold, lonely, and you thought it couldn't get any worse....and then it did. >One day as you were trying to get to sleep, you noticed a silhouette move into the alley. Leaving the "safety" of your box, you found a man holding a knife. He eyed you like some sort of crazy animal, and in moments you knew exactly what he wanted from you. >You tried to escape by flying but he grabbed your back legs, pulling you down to the ground and holding you down. With all hope gone, you almost resigned to your fate. >and then you felt the man being pulled off you. Looking backwards, you saw two human males in a struggle. After a small scuffle, the deranged man was repelled. A moment passed until you heard the voice of the other man. He was a younger man, his voice somehow comforting. >"Are you alright? Did he hurt you at all?" >He held out his hand to you and helped you up. "I'm okay...just a little shaken up is all." >You nodded and thanked the man before heading back to your box. >"Do you live out here all alone?" >You turned to him and nodded, your heart sinking as you thought of your miserable position. >The alley was silent until the man spoke again. >"I can't possibly leave you out here by yourself. Would you like to stay with me at my house? I have a spare bedroom and could use the company." >His proposition shocked you, this was the first act of kindness you had experienced in a long time. "R-really?....." >"Of course. We can go right now, okay?" >You gathered what few things you had and tried to walk, but because of hunger, your strength failed you. You nearly fell, but two strong arms caught you and picked you up. He held you close to him as he walked, and you instinctively rested your head on his shoulder. >You quickly fell asleep on him.   >Be Anon. >You're so glad you were in the right place at the perfect time to save this little mare. Now you are carrying her back to your place. She fell asleep until you reached your house, where you had to put her down to open the door and lead her inside. "First things first, let's get you a shower, alright?" >She nods, and you take her upstairs to your bathroom, where you start the shower for her. >"I can take it from here." "Alrighty then, just call for me if you need help scrubbing behind your ears." >You wink at her, and she gives you a small smile. Leaving the bathroom, you go to the kitchen and fix some late night pancakes. >Nothing like night breakfast to soothe the soul. >Just then, the mare enters the room, both clean and dressed in the clothes you had laid out for her. >Her outfit consisted of an old hoodie you had modified a bit to fit her. She looked like she felt much better. "Was the shower to your liking?" >"It was very relaxing, thank you Mr......." "Anonymous, but you can call me Anon. What is your name?" >"Pillow Case. Sorry that I don't have a nickname." "Hm........" >You thought for a brief moment before it came to you. "May I call you Casey?" >She smiled, and you swear you saw a bit of blush. >"I'd like that." "Alright then, would you like some pancakes Casey?" >"I'd love some."   >Be Pillow Case >Eating pancakes with Anon, the man that saved you. >This was the first time you really got a good look at him. His face was youthful, his body was slim with a little muscle. He was very handsome for a human.. >"Something wrong Casey?" >You had been staring at him without realizing it. Feeling the familiar heat of blush on your cheeks, you tried to play it off. You blurted out the first thing you thought. "Nothing is wrong, the pancakes are just really good!" >Nailed it. >"Well I'm glad you like them. My mother used to make these for me all the time." >He smiled at you, and for a moment you thought you'd melt. >The rest of dinner went well, both of you talking about your past and whatnot. Eventually you both decided to go to bed, and he led you upstairs. "Here's where you'll be sleeping tonight. I'll be down the hall if you need me."   >You curled up in the bed and tried to sleep. You had a horrible nightmare about being all alone in the box again. No friends, family, nothing at all. You thought of how you'd always feel like you'd die alone....   >Then you were woken up by a familiar touch. Anon had just woken you up. He spoke very softly and concerned. >"Casey, are you alright? I could hear you crying from the other room.. >It was then that you noticed the tears streaming down your face. >"Did you have a nightmare?" >You nodded, and held your forelegs out to him. You knew all you wanted was to be held and feel close to someone. He picked you up and held you against his body as you sobbed into his shoulder. >"It's alright Casey, I've got you. I promise I'll keep you safe." >He gently stroked your mane, and eventually your tears subsided. >"Casey, would you like to sleep in my bed with me tonight?.." >You could only nod, and Anon carried you to his room. He laid you on the bed and got in beside you. >"Are you comfortable?" "C-could you hold me please?..." >"I'd love to." >Anon puts his arms around your body, his warm hands running along your lavender coat causes your heart to flutter. You had just met this man, and yet here you are, spooning with him in his bed. You feel like you should be apprehensive about all this, and yet you feel like this is where you belong. He made you feel safe and happy and......loved?... >You quickly pushed this thought out of your head. Anon was just being a good person and comforting you, there's no way he could have romantic feelings for you already. "Goodnight Anon." >"Goodnight Casey." >Using his heartbeat like a lullaby, you drifted off to dreamland. For the first time in forever, no nightmares plagued you.   >The next morning, you awoke and opened your eyes to find Anon's face a few inches from your own. >During your sleep, your body made an executive decision to be as close to Anon as possible. Not only had you turned around and put your face dangerously close to his, you had even put your wings and legs around him. >You're positive right then your face must have turned bright red, as you put yourself in such a compromising position. Luckily he was still asleep, so you were able to wiggle out of his grasp and distance yourself a little away from him. You layed there, admiring Anon until he woke up.   >The rest of the day went fairly boring, Anon had to go to work so you mostly laid on the couch and watched TV to pass the time until he returned. While he was gone, you realized how much less happy you felt while he wasn't around. You missed him.   >When he finally did get home, you flew up to him and hugged him tightly. However, you surprised him, and the force of you flying into him caused him to lose his balance and topple over, you falling on top of him, and your lips meeting his in an accidental kiss that caused you both to blush an intense crimson. >The kiss lasted for only a moment before you separated, both of you blankly staring at one another before you broke the silence. "Sorry Anon! I was just really glad to see you, and-" >"Don't worry about it Casey, it was just an accident. If anything, blame my awful balance." >He chuckled and petted your mane, putting you at ease. You then helped him get up (you weren't much help actually, but it's the thought that counts), and asked him how his day had gone.   >Be Anon >You felt amazing after last night, as for the first time in quite a while you had slept calmly and woke up refreshed. You had always hated living alone, paranoia kept you scared most nights, as you expected something horrible to happen to you. Something about being alone made you feel helpless, but now that you had someone with you, your fears seemed to melt away. >Last night Casey had been so scared and depressed, you knew you had to be strong for her. You couldn't let her know how you felt on the inside.   >After you moved away from home, things seemed alright at first, but soon you lost touch with all your friends and the majority of your family. Now all you had was this house and your measly job at Gamestop. It also didn't help that you have terrible social anxiety that caused you to fear most kinds of social interaction, turning you into an introvert of the highest caliber.   >Today wasn't a particularly good or bad day, it just all seemed to blend together until quitting time, when you left and went home. You opened your front door and walked inside, where immediately after closing the door behind you, you received a reminder that you were not alone, in the form what can only be described as being tackled by the equivalent of a sentient plush toy. You tried to support both yours and Casey's weight, but the force of her flying into you caused you to fall backwards, and your lips to meet hers for the first time. >You wish the kiss could have lasted longer, but you knew Casey didn't feel that way for you. The way she apologized instantly for the kiss confirmed that suspicion for you, as did her face, which looked obviously flustered because of this accident. You played off the incident, acting like it never happened so she wouldn't feel bad about it. After getting back on your feet, you and Casey shared a bit of small talk and watched TV together to pass the time. >Soon it was time to start fixing dinner, but Casey stopped you before you could get off of the couch. >"Anon? If it's alright with you...may I make dinner tonight?..I never got to properly thank you for what you did for me." >The way she looked at you with those big, beautiful eyes, how could you possibly say no to her? "Of course you may. I'm excited to see what culinary creation you'll make for me, Chef Casey." >She giggled as she flew into the kitchen to prepare dinner. >Thankfully the fire department didn't need to be called tonight, Casey was very capable in the kitchen apparently. She called you in when dinner was ready, and once you had sat down at the dinner table she presented you with a plate of gourmet mac and cheese. >"Sorry, this was all I could think of to make. Since equestrians don't usually know how to prepare meat, my options are pretty limited." "Don't worry about it, it looks amazing. Shall we dig in?" >Casey smiled as she responded, "Yes Mr. Anon, we shall." >The food was delicious despite it being a rather simple dish. (you make a mental note to add 'wonderful cooking ' to the growing list of amazing qualities Casey possesses) >After dinner you help her clean the dishes, which thankfully there aren't many of. Then you and Casey both decide to turn in for the night, this time each of you going to your separate rooms. >You really want to lay with Casey again, but you don't want to push your luck after the incident today. You think to yourself one thing. 'Goodnight Casey.'   >Be Pillow Case >It's been a few weeks since you moved in with Anon, and things have been going pretty great. For most of the weekdays, Anon goes to work and you wait for him to return. One day you even taught yourself how to play some of Anon's video games. >even you didn't understand how you were able to work a controller with your wings and hooves. >Sometimes, you'd surprise Anon when he got home with a big hug. He didn't always seem too happy when he got home, but when he saw you he always had a smile on his face. That always made you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. >Typically, you were the one who would cook dinner. You felt bad that Anon worked most of the day, and you couldn't help contribute. Anytime you told Anon about this, he would just pet you and say the same thing. >"Casey, the only thing I need from you is to see your smiling face when I get home." >then he'd boop your nose. You pretended not to like it, but secretly all ponies enjoy that.   >On the weekends, you and Anon would get out of the house to go run errands. Grocery shopping with Anon was always fun, although you did notice you and Anon got a few funny looks from some of the humans at the store. You suppose some humans still aren't used to having ponies around them. On one such shopping day, Anon noticed that the odd looks made you uncomfortable, so he tried to get your mind off of it. >"Hey Casey, how about you and I bake some cookies tonight?" >Your face lit up like a lightbulb, if there was one thing you absolutely loved, it was sweets. "Yes! That'd be AWESOME." >You then decided you should be using your inside voice. Blushing, you spoke again. "I mean um.....t-that sounds like a nice idea. C-can we make snickerdoodles? They're my favorite.." >Anon chuckled. >"Of course Casey. Let's get the ingredients and then head home." >You both finished your errands and headed home.   >On the way back from the grocery store, you saw a very interesting looking shop, so you asked Anon what it was. >"Oh, that's a hobby shop. They sell all sorts of supplies for art, sewing, and tons of other stuff." "Wow, that sounds like a fun place to shop." >"If you want, I'll take you in there tomorrow. Having a hobby is always fun to pass time with." "Yay! I can't wait!" >You and Anon both smiled. You already couldn't wait until tomorrow.   >That night, you and Anon baked cookies together. You even got to wear a cute little apron. Everything went off mostly without a hitch, except when you spilled cinnamon all over yourself. Anon immediately started laughing. >"Geez Casey, are you going to leave any cinnamon for me?" >Wow that joke was lame, but it got a laugh out of you anyways. Unfortunately, your laughter caused you to breathe in cinnamon, which in turn caused you to sneeze a small cloud of cinnamon. >This of course caused Anon to start laughing even harder. Nearly doubling over from laughter, he tried to brace himself on the nearest object...which just happened to be the still hot stove. >"Ouch!" >You went up to Anon to inspect his hand, making sure he hadn't burned himself too badly. "Are you alright Anon?" >"Casey, I'm fine. Unfortunately, I think you and I are both cursed to be clumsy forever." >Anon was still laughing, and soon you joined in as well. Eventually you both ran out of breath, and there was silence until Anon spoke once more. >"Casey?......" >he looked into your eyes, and you swear that time stopped. "Yes Anon?..." >your heart was fluttering. You knew exactly what you wanted to happen in the moment, and you almost went for it, but Anon interrupted you. >"We should really get you cleaned up. You've got cinnamon everywhere." "Oh....okay..." >Anon led you upstairs and to the bathroom. He offered to help you clean up, but you declined his offer. You were feeling pretty low after what had just happened. You figured if Anon didn't kiss you then, he probably would never want to. >You started the shower and got in.   >Be Anon. >Cleaning up the kitchen and waiting for the cookies to be done. You're really mad at yourself for what just happened. You had the perfect opportunity to kiss Casey, to show her how you feel, and you completely chickened out. The fact that you had even made an attempt seemed to visibly upset Casey, so maybe it was best that you just not attempt again. >A "ding" from the oven alerted you that the cookies should be ready. You retrieved them from the oven and after they cooled, ate one. It was so good, it made you have a revelation. Though you burned yourself making these, it was well worth it to get something this good. Even if you had to endure a little pain, it was worth it. It was funny how something as simple as a cookie could help renew your resolve. >Casey was now the most important pony (or human for that matter) in your life, and you knew how you felt about her. You're in love with her, and you can't give up over one failure. The next time the moment feels right, you won't chicken out.   >Just then, Casey came back downstairs from the shower. Her mane was still wet, and her body was loosely wrapped in a towel. >If you didn't know any better, you could swear she was trying to seduce you. >"Oh yay! The cookies are done." >she flew over to you, and you offered her one. "I gotta say, you and I are a pretty awesome baking team." >she ate the cookie, and obviously loved it, because she immediately grabbed another. "Casey, would you like to watch a movie with me?" >she looked up at you with her beautiful purple eyes. >"I'd love to. Got any specific movies in mind?" "I'm thinking cheesy sci-fi horror. That ought to give us a good laugh or two." >"Sounds like a plan." >"Okay Anon, I'll take the cookies into the living room, you pour us two glasses of milk and follow." "Alright Casey, see you on the couch." >Casey left the room and you went to pour two glasses of milk. You then went into the living room, put the glasses on the table, and sat down next to Casey. "Comfy?" >"Not quite." >she got closer to you and layed down, her head resting on your lap. >"Much better." >You took the remote and looked at what was playing on the sci-fi channel. The movie you both ended up watching was Dracula 3000. >It was exactly all you had hoped it would be, cheesy and stupid. Both you and Casey got a lot of good laughs out of it, especially at the ending. >"That explosion was the worst effect I've seen ever." >Casey was practically dying of laughter. You were laughing too, but eventually your laugh transitioned into a yawn. The cookies and milk must have really made you tired. >Casey got off of your lap, and you both laid down together on the couch. You put an arm around Casey and pulled her close to you. Your hand could feel the warmth of her body as you started to rub her tummy. This lulled her to sleep, and when you were sure she was completely asleep, you gently planted a kiss on her cheek. "Sweet dreams Casey." >Not long after that, you too joined her in sleep. It was a good thing you didn't have to work tomorrow, as you promised to take Casey to the hobby shop, and that was a promise you intended to keep.   >Be Pillow Case >It was around 11 when you finally woke up. >Your eyes opened to an intense onslaught of light, which blinded you momentarily until your eyes adjusted. >You soon found that both you and Anon had fallen asleep on the couch while watching movies. >In addition to this, Anon had been cuddling you all night. >Speaking of last night......   >You vividly recall how Anon rubbed your tummy so gently and sweetly. >His touch felt so great, you wished so much that his hand would just move between your back legs.... >You pushed this thought out of your head, it made your legs quiver, your heart flutter, and your face blush a deep red.   >Now was not the time to be thinking lewd thoughts. >Today was an important day, as Anon said he would take you to the hobby shop today. >You were very, very excited for this. >Perhaps they would even carry supplies for your special talent... >It had been so long since you last got to use your special talent, you wondered if you even remembered how. >Oh well, you wouldn't know if you didn't try. >But first things first, time to wake up a sleepy Anon. >You tried shaking him and calling his name, but he wouldn't wake up. >Then you got an idea. >Using one of your wings, you tickle Anon's face with your feathers. >You keep tickling, and tickling, until... >with a quick sneeze, Anon woke himself up. >You giggled, and gave Anon a smile. "Good morning sleepyhead. How'd you sleep?" >"Considering I was next to you all night, I slept like a dream." >He petted your head and scratched behind your ears. >"Oh, and good morning Casey. I suppose you're ready for our trip to the hobby shop?" >You nodded eagerly. >"Alright, well let me go take a shower. After that, we can go, deal?" >You gave Anon a big hug. "Deal." >Anon headed upstairs to take a shower, while you eagerly awaited the rest of the day.   >It didn't take Anon too long to take a shower and get dressed, but nevertheless you were quite impatient today. >Anon came downstairs dressed in his usual attire; jeans, a T-shirt, and whatever hooded jacket he felt matched his shirt. >You flew up to him and starting pulling him by the arm, trying to get him to move faster. "Come on Anon, let's get moving!" >He chuckled >"Wow Casey, you sure are eager to do some shopping today." >You responded under your breath. "I'm just really glad we get to spend more time together.." >"What was that Casey?" "N-nothing! Let's just get going." >Anon grabbed his keys and you both headed out to his car. >He helped you buckle up (human seats were so weird), and then you both left en route to the hobby shop. >When you got there, Anon parked the car, you both got out, and stepped inside the store.   >Immediately, you were floored by the majesty of it all. >All sorts of shelves and walls lined with supplies for all sorts of assorted hobbies. >Perhaps they'd even have what you were looking for.. >The excitement welled up in your body, and you suddenly couldn't help by fly off to go looking for what you needed. >"Casey, wait up!" >A very confused Anon was left at the door, unable to stop you from rushing off. >You searched aisle after aisle... >Paint...no. Model trains...no. Fabric and sewing supplies...n- >WAIT. This was it, exactly what you needed. >You started looking through the different fabrics and stuffing, and eventually Anon found you. >"Oh there you are Casey. Why'd you run off?" >Realized how you left Anon at the front of the store, you felt pretty bad. "I'm sorry Anon. It's just...I really wanted to surprise you with my special talent." >You smirked. It was finally your chance to really impress Anon.   >You and Anon are now headed home after finishing your errands at the shop. >After you explained that you really wanted to surprise Anon, he bought you the supplies you needed, no questions asked. >When you arrived home, you immediately flew up to your room with your supplies and shut the door. "It's time to get to work."   .......   >Be Anon. >Casey has been up in her room for quite a while now, working on who-knows-what. >You really wanted to check up on her, but she told you not to disturb her until she was done. >A hour or two passed. >Now it was almost time for dinner, and Casey still wasn't done. >You started to cook dinner, as you were sure that when Casey was finished she would be pretty hungry. >After the cooking was done, you were about to grab a plate and go eat when... >"DONE!" >Casey's voice called out from upstairs, beckoning you. >"Anon! You can come upstairs now!" >Up the stairs you went, until you arrived at Casey's room. >You opened the door to find her with a huge smile on her face, hovering and hiding something behind her. >"Why hello Anon." >she giggled with excitement. "Casey, are you going to show me what's behind your back? Or would you rather just let the suspense kill me?" >"That is tempting, but if I let the suspense kill you, who would pet me?" >You reached out and petted Casey. "Good point." >"Anyways.....close your eyes." >You did as she asked. >"No peeking!" "Yes ma'am." >Now it was your turn to chuckle. >"Alright......open your eyes!" >You opened your eyes to find....pink. Lots of fluffy pink fabric. >You were confused at first, but as you took a step back you realized what Casey was holding. >A pillow. A big heart shaped pillow. >"Do you like it?...Back when I lived in Equestria, I found that my special talent was making all sorts of pillows...hense the pillow mark on my backside." "Oh...I always thought you had that name because you're so comfortable to cuddle with." >She began blushing. >"Really?..."
