>You had had it.
>All throughout the week, Cadance and Shining Armor had been in an argument.
>Something about not having enough time together or some shit.
>Cadance started it, and ever since then, you've heard nothing but the shouting voices of the married couple whenever they were alone.
>Their voices pierced your ears each night you tried to sleep.
>They were there when you were alone in your room, doing whatever it was you did.
>It was at the dining table.
>Each time they were lounging, they'd always bring it up again.
>And you were fucking fed up with it.
>You were going to fix this.
>Workaholic Shining was easy to find, considering he was usually on duty.
>You remembered how he'd always make the points that his job was to protect Cadance, and without that, they might not even see each other if something bad happened.
>Cadance always tried to assure him that she could protect herself if it came down to it.
>He was so convinced that he needed to guard her that he'd been neglecting her.
>The blind fool.
>Shining was in the crystal barracks, looking over a map of the castle.
>His hair was ruffled, and bags were visible under his eyes.
>He was as stressed out about this argument as you were.
>"What do you want, Anon?"
>You walk behind him and slide your arms around his belly before pulling him upwards.
>"Anon, what are you doing!? Put me down!"
>He struggled in your grip, but luckily for you, ponies here had about the same amount of strength as they would in the real world.
>That is to say, not stronger than you.
>"I have to stay back and plan new patrols for the guards!"
>His horn flashed as he tried to cast spells to help him out of your grip.
>You simply grabbed his horn and squeezed it, capturing any magic he tried to use in your hands.
>As a last-ditch effort, he started to bite your arms.
>Painful as it was, it only convinced you even more that he needed this, which made you grip him tighter.
>Reaching his and Cadance's bedroom, you quickly tossed him in and slammed the door shut.
>You kept yourself on the door as he tried slamming into it to get out.
>He couldn't get past you, fortunately.
>You heard his tired breaths from behind the door.
>It seems the stress of the week, combined with his lack of sleep have caught up to him.
>"Alright Anon. Maybe I won't get out through the door, but I'll find another way. This is MY room after all. I know it inside and out."
>You knew he was bluffing.
>You'd searched every square inch of the room for secret passages as a precaution for this plan.
>It had been awkward when Cadance caught you in there.
>Cadance.
>Right, it was time to grab subject #2.
>Just in case Shining tried to break out again, you pushed a nearby podium with a bust in front of the door.
>You were sure it'd be enough to hold him.
>Moving on, you traveled through the castle to find Candyass herself.
>She was found in the ballroom, directing ponies on where she wanted what to be for an upcoming event, akin to the Grand Galloping Gala.
>Her bags were as visible as Shining's.
>"No, no, a little more to the left...no that banner just won't do."
>She yawned.
>An assistant zipped to her side and offered her a mug of coffee.
>She gladly accepted it and took a sip, before giving it back to the assistant.
>She never liked the bitter taste, but she had been taking sips every now and then this week to stay awake.
>As she watches the assistant leave, she notices you.
>"Oh, hey Anon."
>She shifts her focus back to the decorations.
>While she isn't watching, you do the same thing you did to Shining, and grab around her torso.
>She's a lot easier to carry than Shining.
>"Hey, Anon, what are you doing!?"
>The decorators saw you carrying away the princess.
>Before you ran off, you assured them that you would bring no harm to her, and hoped that they would take your word for it.
>Through the hallways you went, carrying a squirming pink princess.
>She warned you that she would force you into community service or other minor sentences if you didn't put her down.
>Considering she was grumpy this week anyways, you knew she was just saying things.
>Hopefully.
>You made it to her room, the bust having stayed right where it was placed.
>It seemed Shining hadn't tried to force his way out again.
>You quickly open the door and toss pink princess in before slamming it shut yet again.
>She tries to bust out in the same fashion as Shining, but to no avail.
>"Anon, I swear, if you don't let me out, I'll make sure the castle servants destroy your room so badly...ugh."
>She's tired out too.
>Good.
>It's then that she notices Shining.
>"You're in here too? It's almost as if Anon...oh."
>Her hooffalls indicate she's walking towards the door.
>"I see what you're doing, Anon. You don't think we can stop fighting by ourselves, so you've forced us together."
>You hear her walk away and flop on the bed.
>"Fine. I'll play along. We can make up, can't we, Shining?"
>He grunts in response.
>"Oh, don't be like that, honey. I mean, you're in the same room, alone, with me. I don't think Anon's much of a threat. You're basically guarding me right now."
>"You know I do it because I love you, right?" Shining's voice rang out.
>"I know you do, but well, I think you just take it too seriously sometimes."
>"Oh, so you want me to be lenient in keeping my wife safe, is that it?"
>"No, no, it's just...you've been so high-strung lately. A lot more than usual. I want my old, calm husband back is all..."
>You could hear Shining pace about in the room.
>"But I have to be prepared for anything, especially with the Crystal Ball coming up. What if it ends up like our wedding? What if something happens to you, and I can't defend you, just like last time? I was so gullible back then to fall for that changeling's tricks..."
>Well, this was new.
>He'd never mentioned this in any of the arguments before.
>You hear Cadance slide off the bed and move towards Shining.
>"But Shiny, I trust you enough to make sure everything goes smoothly. Chrysalis is gone now, and I don't think there are any other big villains out to get us with Tirek gone, too."
>You hear her kiss his cheek.
>"Besides, I know you're my knight in shining armor, here to defend me from anything, but I can take care of myself, too."
>"But, what about with Chrysalis-?"
>"Shining, I'll be fine. You just need to trust me on this. I trust you to take care of yourself, don't I?"
>"I...guess you're right. This Ball has me going nuts over your safety so much that I just...I just didn't want a repeat of our wedding. I'm sorry, Cadance."
>"I forgive you, Shiny."
>You hear the two touch lips.
>And that evolves into what you think is a bit of a make-out session.
>"I've needed this for so long..." you hear Cadance whisper.
>You hear the wet smooching between the two increase, before one of them hops onto the bed.
>Ohboy.jpg
>You try to peer through the keyhole of the door, but only make out movements on the bed.
>"Take me, Shining. I'm all yours."
>The bed squishes downwards, likely because of Shining.
>And then it starts to bounce.
>Cadance lets out soft moans of pleasure.
>Shining does the same as he thrusts into his wife.
>You try hard to reposition yourself at the door to get a better look through the keyhole.
>Your erection grows as Cadance's moans get louder.
>"Faster, Shining. Faster!"
>She lets out faster breaths as Shining's pace quickens.
>"Say you love me, Cadance."
>"I love you, Shining."
>You had recalled that Shining had a fetish for love itself.
>No wonder these two were the perfect match.
>"How much do you love me, Cadance?"
>"With all of my being, my love. I love you infinitely so, as much as the world allows."
>The bed bounces faster.
>This continues for a while.
>Shining is fueled by his love fetish, and Cadance enjoys every second.
>All the while you tried to see as much as you could, but were limited by this little keyhole.
>You could only see the bottom of the bed.
>Cadance's moans are loud and paced evenly.
>Shining knew each and every way to pleasure his wife.
>You would know, you've read Cadance's diary.
>In between the thrusts you heard Shining and Cadance whisper sweet nothings to each other.
>There was the occasional kiss, but whether it was on the lips or somewhere else, you couldn't tell.
>You hoped they were placed in sensitive spots.
>Cadance spoke after a few more minutes.
>"Sh-Shining, I think I'm gonna-ah-AHHH!"
>She climaxed, which turned you on more.
>Truly, you envied that stallion in there.
>Shining made his own pleasured noises as he finished as well.
>Afterwards, the two were left panting on their bed.
>The smell of sex lingered through the keyhole.
>You heard them lock lips once more, before speaking again.
>"Thank you, Shining. I really needed that."
>"I think we both did, honey."
>"I love you, Shining Armor."
>"I love you too, Cadance."
>You listened as the ponies got off the bed.
>Their hooffalls indicated they were coming towards the door.
>You run away from the door as quickly as you can, but not before grabbing the podium and putting it back.
>The door opens and the two lovers exit, Shining's hoof straddled over his wife's shoulder.
>They notice you standing a ways away.
>You walk up to them and congratulate them on their successful makeup.
>"Thank you, Anon. But I don't think we would've been able to do it if you hadn't forced us together."
>Cadance stops herself for a moment.
>"By the way, you were too rough. Next time, don't squeeze me so much as you carry me."
>"Ditto," Shining says. "Also, uh, how long were you standing outside our room?"
>You assured them it was only after you were sure that they made up that you left.
>"Meaning...?"
>Their skeptical looks made you sweat.
>You told them it was after they said sorry to each other.
>"Oh, okay, Anon. Just...wanted to make sure you knew it was okay is all."
>You told them that you were sure it was fine between the two of them.
>They nodded at your response.
>"Now that that's settled, I still have to go back to planning those patrol routes."
>"And I still have to make sure that ballroom looks good."
>The couple kisses one more time, then go their separate ways.
>You were so glad they hadn't noticed your raging boner that entire time.
>With that taken care of, it was time to go blow your own load off.
