>You've been working on Applejack's farm to earn a few bits here and there >You learn from Applejack that Apple Bloom has a little crush on you, its cute as fuck. >Applejack wants you to play pretend boyfriend to her, she can't stand the idea of her little sisters heart getting broken >Shes sure little Apple Bloom will be over you in a week, so you decide to play along with it, after all, you might get some brownie points with Applejack for it, also she's paying you extra. >Your first 'date' with Apple Bloom was a success as far as pretend dates go, it was a cute little picnic at dawn. >Despite re-enforcing the idea that you're too old for her, Apple Bloom insists on winning your heart. Stubborn runs in the family it seems. ------------ >Today you're plowing Aj's field (giggity) and doing a dam fine job, its hard, but its good honest work and you feel good about yourself. >While you toil away Apple Bloom watches you from atop a short fence, chin resting on hooves as she watches you work, occasionally bringing you a refreshing drink. >You take a short breather, looking up to see Apple Bloom waving at you. Do you...   >Wave back >Walk over >Do nothing >Flip her the bird >Put two fingers up to your lips and lick through them while thrusting your hips at her >SUDDENLY HEART ATTACK?! >other   A:I decide t- HHNNGGG A:Other.   Smile and wave back.   >You feel a strangeness in your left arm, its probably nothing, or it could be a SUDDENLY HEART ATTACK?! >... >Nah, its not, you're fine, fucking drama queen. >>17976774 >You smile and wave back, its manners. Because you've been brushing your teeth like a good little monkey Apple Bloom gets treated to a magazine worthy set of pearly whites. >She hops off the fence and bounces over for the upteenth time that day. >"Ya all finished up here Anon?" She asks, her big pretty eyes looking up at you. >Man her eyes are huge... >You ARE done, but you're not sure if you want to tell her that, after all, she might want you to go do stuff with her, like dress ups and tea parties and whatever things girls do. >You don't know what girls do, your knowledge on girls is extremely limited, which is impressive in a society that has a 5:1 girl to guy ratio. "Well..." >You say as you scratch the back of your head, anime style. Do you...   >Answer truthfully, momma didn't raise no liar. >Lie, you really don't wanna do anything with Apple Bloom today. >Run away >DROP KICK THE BITCH >other.   A:Momma din't raise no liar, no way no how.   >Eh fuck it. "Yeah I'm all done here Apple Bloom. Whats up?" >Her mouth curves into the biggest brightest smile you had ever seen. >If you weren't going to have a heart attack before you sure as shit were gunna get one now. >"Really Anon? Yer all free now? Do ya wanna maybe come with me to the cutey mark crusader clubhouse?" She asks while hopping around excitedly. >You put a hand to your chin and think. "Hmm... isn't the CMC clubhouse for CMC members only?" >You're teasing her, its funny to you, you also like to steal candy from children. >"Oh..uh... well, you don't have a cutie mark right? You can be a cutiemark crusader too!" She states confidently. >She did have a point, you lacked ass tattoos (unlike your mother). "Humans don't get cutiemarks, what would I even do at your club?" >You question her. "That cutie mark stuff is you and your little friends project, I'd be in the way." >"Well, they wont be there today, just us" She says softly, tracing her hoof in the dirt. >Thats a red flag, this girl wants to get you alone, you can feel Chris Ponyson breathing down your neck. Do you...   >Go with her, maybe she just wants to show you the tree house? >Suggest something else to do >Decline her invitation, you have other things planned today. >Pick her up and pile drive her off the fence. >Other   A:Ehhh, yeah. Maybe something else. In a public place. With lots of ponies around. Like that diabetes inducing place, Sugarcube something A:>you can feel Chris Ponyson breathing down your neck.   I AINT GETTING TACKLED BY A BUSH AGAIN!   >Yeah, no, that ain't happening, you've seen foaline way too many times, and in a small community like this you can't risk having yourself labeled a foal fiddler. >>17977127 >You get a brilliant idea. You clap your hands together and point them at Apple Bloom. "You know what I could really go for right now?" >You say enthusiastically. >"What!?" She says even more enthusiastically. >You take a second to process how adorable it was. "I could really go from some delicious ice cold malted milkshake, do you know where I could get one?" >"Oh oh!" She says while bouncing in place. "Sugar cube corner sales them! We can go do that, and then everypony will know we're-" >Oh no.. oh no no you did not think this through.. >"-together and we'll be official!" She's practically shouting in excitement . "Apple Bloom, I'm not really-" >Before you can finish that sentence you see Applejack poke her head out from behind a tree in the distance. >How long as she been there... >She slowly shakes her head at you, and pounds her hoof into the other. >Lets be straight here, as much as you like Applejack, you're a little scared of her. You've seen her splinter a god dam barn wall once before with a solid kick, that could be your nuts next. >"...Really what Anon?" Apple Bloom asks, a confused look on her little face. "Really...really uh...really sure we should be standing around gabbing when we could be drinking malts lets go!" >And with that you two head to SCC >On the way there Apple Bloom makes sure to stand extra close to you while you walk >The towns folk give you two a couple odd stares. Do you...   >Ignore them >Try to subtly tell them its not what they think with silent gestures and facial expressions >Put on a shit eating grin, nodding your head while pointing to Apple Bloom. >Kick Apple Bloom away. >Other   A:Point finger guns at them and make shooting gestures while pelvic thrusting at Applebloom.   >Man fuck these ponies with their judgmental staring. You didn't have to explain yourself to a bunch of treehugging nudists. >You mock shooting them while thrusting your hips at Apple Bloom every time she stops looking at you for even a second >Their disgusted faces please you greatly, sure this was going to bite you in the ass in some way but you live in the now, future thinking is for pussies and psychics. >You enter Sugar Cube Corner with your pretend filly friend. Since you actually KNEW pinkiepie and didn't want to get in bad with her you decide to be well behaved from here on out. >As you two make your way to the counter Mrs.cake, whos plumpness you've always found oddly attractive, greets you with a warm smile. The scent of baked goods fills your nose. >You're actually glad you came here, you're starving and your newly gained income was begging to be spent. >"Howdy Mrs.cake!" Apple Bloom says. "Me and my -boyfriend- here would like two of your finest malts" >She sure knew how to take charge. Way to not conform to gender rolls Apple Bloom. >Mrs.Cake gives you a suspicious look when Apple Bloom announces your relationship status. You shrug, shake your head and point to Apple Bloom, making sure she didn't see you. >"Ahh I see, well Mr.Apple Blooms boyfriend-" >You wince >"What kind of flavor would you like?" >Thankful that Mrs.Cake seemed to understand what was going on you order your malt, and a baked good, and pay for it all. You and Apple Bloom sit in the corner of the shop, drinking and munching away. >Its a little too quiet, and other ponies are still staring at you two   Do you...   >Eat and drink in silence >Make light conversation with Apple Bloom. >Make faces at the other patrons. >Suplex Apple Bloom into the table. >Other.   A:>Make light conversation with Apple Bloom. >Make faces at the other patrons. Why not both? A:Seconding this. In fact let's us and Apple Bloom both make funny faces at other patrons.   >"Everyponies staring at us" Apple bloom whispers to you in between slurps of her malt. >You grin, an idea forming in your monkey brain. "Lets give em a reason to" >You say with a childish grin on your face before turning to your side and sticking your tongue out at the others, pulling under your eyes. >Apple Bloom quickly joins you, pressing her hooves into her cheeks to puff out her O mouth and crossing her eyes. >You both make a variety of silly faces at the others. Some frown and shake their heads at you, others smirk at your antics, and a set of children take it as a challenge and make funny faces back. >Mrs.cake stifles her giggles from behind the counter. >After that bit of fun you two finish your malts and decide to blow the joint. >"Ah didn't finish my sweet bread" Apple Bloom says as you two walk outside. "Lets go to the park and feed some ducks!" She suggests, making her way to the park before you had a chance to agree or not. >You two find a nice bench in Ponyville park, and sit your butts down. Apple Bloom tears the sweet bread into bits and tosses them around. >In Equestria animals are less fearful, and in seconds ducks and birds litter the area to pick at crumbs. >You chit chat with Apple Bloom about little things to pass the time, and you notice that the ponies around didn't seem to notice or care about the two of you. >Maybe Mrs.Cake did some explaining for you? Word gets around fast in these parts. >"...Thanks for being with me today Anon" Apple Bloom says after a brief moment of silence. "Yeah today was fun" >You say back, smiling at the little filly next to you. She returns the smile before throwing the rest of her crumbs onto the floor. >"Ah should be getting back to home" She says as she stares into the sky, an orange hue from the setting sun. "Want me to walk you back?" >You ask, being all considerate and gentlemanly and gay. >"Umm... nah, it would be kinda akward" She replies. >You frown, brow furrowing in confusion   "Awkward how?" >You ask, right before you feel the soft press of her lips against your cheek. >You freeze up, completely off guard as she plants one on you. >She breaks away and hops off the bench and runs off back towards her home >"Hehe see you tomorrow Anon!" She shouts back as she runs away giggling. >You sit back in shock, reaching up and touching your cheek gingerly as you watch her run off back home. >"...Ehehe" >Your head snaps around to see Applejack standing besides the bench, her forelegs resting on it, a big goofy grin on her face. >"Well lookat you" You teases, raising a brow at you. "You're enjoying this aren't you..." >You say suspiciously, pointing a finger at her and shaking your head. >She hops onto the bench and sits next to you. >"Maybe a little, ah think its cute." She replies. "Sweet nothing, I could get lynched for this." >You grumble, crossing your arms angrily. >She waves off your concerns. >"Don't ya worry about a thing Anon, Ah've been running around explaining yer situation to everypony." She explains. >You feel a little better knowing that you weren't going to get (that much) flack for this. >"But really Anon, thanks for putting up with all this, it means a lot to me" She continues. >You turn to see her smiling warmly at you, in the glow of the sunset she looked even more lovely then usual. "Yeah well... if it ain't over in a week im spilling the beans" >"Alright, that's fair enough" She responds >After another brief silence you feel a familiar soft press into your opposite cheek, and with a big 'muah' Aj plants a kiss on you to match. >A grin and blush form in sync on your face. "Now what was that for" >You say as a warmth fills you up inside. >"Consider it a proper thanks for all you've done" She says before jumping off the bench and walking away. >You turn your gaze to watch her walk off. "...Hey wait! Does that mean i'm not getting paid extra?!" >You shout to her as she walks off >"Yup!" She shouts back.   end... for now.
