Expiry: Never

  1. >The evening air refreshes you, making your mind at ease and you begin to descend towards the ground.
  2. >You land gracefully, and retract your wings back to your sides.
  3. >Looking over, you see Anon sitting nearby and waving to you.
  4. >”Hey there Addie, wanna join me in stargazing?”
  5. >It’s true that the sun has set and Luna’s beautiful night has come at last.
  6. >You smile and nod, trotting over to join him.
  7. >The stars are so pretty tonight.
  8. >Anon points to a falling star in the sky
  9. >”Look! There’s a shooting star, make a wish.”
  10. >Your eyes follow it, and make a silent wish.
  11. >Please make this moment last forever.
  12. >As it twinkles away, you feel so happy.
  13. “Anon, can I ask you something?”
  14. >”Sure.”
  15. >You turn your head to face him, feel the heat slowly building up.
  16. >It’s now or never.
  17. “Do you think you could ever love a pony?”
  18. >He turns his head towards yours and smiles.
  19. >”Yeah probably, I’d have to get to know them first of course.”
  20. >Your heart flutters, so you take a breath and tell him.
  21. “Anon, I’m in love with you.”
  22. >He blinks a few times, and lets out a slow breath.
  23. >”I know.”
  24. >You go to lean in and awaken.
  25. >Staring at the ceiling you’re reminded of yesterday’s events.
  26. “...I-I’m in love with A-Anon...”
  27. >Your words echo in your room.
  28. >You want him to know it.
  29. >Even if it’s the last thing you do, you will tell him that you love him.
  30. >It’s early, but you don’t care.
  31. >You go through most of your morning routine, and barely manage to do a decent warm up.
  32. >As you sip your coffee, you start to unfold your doodles from the pile you made.
  33. “...I want to...I will show him these...Even if words fail me...”
  34. >He is a human and you are a pony.
  35. “...It d-doesn’t matter...I love him...”
  36. >You’ve longed to feel love for so long.
  37. >Even when you were a filly, you never experienced it.
  38. >But now, you’ve never been more certain that is what you’re feeling.
  39. >You want to try, even if it hurts, you so badly want to try.
  40.  
  41. >The thought of rejection still lingers on your mind, can’t avoid that anymore.
  42. “...I don’t...I don’t know what to do...If-if he doesn’t love me back...”
  43. >Looking over to your easel, the answer dawns on you.
  44. “...T-these do-doodles aren’t enough...”
  45. >Setting aside the doodles, you gather all your art supplies together and get to work.
  46. >The words Anon told you the other night are still fresh in your mind.
  47. “...The b-best works...Have a bit of their art-artist in them...”
  48. >You throw yourself into this completely.
  49. >You’ve never felt such a drive before, and your heart thunders in your ears.
  50. >It feels like everything finally makes sense at long last.
  51. >It’s not the same as being inspired like before, it’s stronger.
  52. >Something new, and you welcome it.
  53. >You finish the sketch with your pencil and step back.
  54. “...N-needs color...”
  55. >Sure, you’re no painter, but that hasn’t stopped you before.
  56. >Opening up your paints, you pick up a brush and get to work.
  57. >Like many times before, you let the brush be an extension of yourself.
  58. >It’s like your possessed, this must be what it’s like to love another so much.
  59. >You never loved another pony before, they never got you like Anon does.
  60. >As you finish it up, your eyes widen.
  61. >Setting down the brush you stand back and take it all in.
  62. “...It-it’s perfect...”
  63. >The message is clear, and you’re certain he will understand it.
  64. >Regardless, that doesn’t solve your fear.
  65. >Shaking your head, you go clean off the paint you got on your coat.
  66. “...I want to be...No...Need to be c-clean for him...”
  67. >As you’re waiting, you’re feeling conflicted still.
  68. “...How do I...Do I j-just...”
  69. >Just let him inside, say the words and show him the picture, easy enough.
  70. >A sudden knocking breaks you out of your thoughts.
  71. >Sure he is early, but that doesn’t matter, it’s finally time.
  72. >You try to calm down, probably will stutter, but that won’t matter.
  73.  
  74. >Opening the door, you greet him immediately.
  75. “...H-hey Anon...Come in...Please...”
  76. >He nods and follows you in.
  77. >Walking over to your easel, you turn to face him.
  78. >He stands in the center of the room, just like the first day you sketched him.
  79. >It makes your heart flutter once more before he clears his throat.
  80. >”I promised I’d explain everything, so to do that, we have to-”
  81. >You don’t let him finish, no, can’t waste this chance.
  82. “...Anon...I have something to tell you...”
  83. >He looks surprised, but nods.
  84. >”Alright sure.”
  85. >Gulping down your fear, you continue on.
  86. “...I-I think...No...I am in love with you...”
  87. >Anon freezes, and says nothing.
  88. >You can see his face go through different emotions before finally he sighs.
  89. >”Yeah, figured you’d say that.”
  90. >Your joy soars, but before you can respond, he continues.
  91. >”I’m pretty sure I’m in love with you too, but..”
  92. >He shakes his head, and looks frustrated to say the next words.
  93. >”Are you sure about this? We haven’t known each other that long, I don’t want to hurt you.”
  94. >You shake your head furiously, how dare he think that.
  95. “...Of course I do..!...I don’t care anymore...You’re the only one that gets me...And I...I can’t ignore this anymore...I want to really feel love...I can’t help that I’m in love...With you...”
  96. >Anon closes his eyes and lowers his head a moment.
  97. >”I was stupid to ignore it. No point in lying to myself anymore.”
  98. >You need him to understand and know just how to do it.
  99. >Approaching him slowly, you stand in front of him.
  100. >As he raises his head back up, you take the opportunity rear up to embrace him in a kiss.
  101. >He stumbles and his eyes widen before relaxing into it.
  102. >It feels like fireworks are going off inside of you, and a warmth overcomes your form.
  103. >As the two of you pull back, you feel...Whole.
  104. >A few tears escape, and a small giggle as well.
  105.  
  106. >To say you’re floored is an understatement.
  107. >Words are failing you right now, but does that really matter?
  108. >Wait, shit, forgot about Cherry.
  109. >She can hold on dammit, you have your girl-, no, marefriend to deal with.
  110. >Her eyes shimmer with tears, and she lets out another little laugh.
  111. >”...I’m...I’m happiest I’ve been in a long...Long time...”
  112. >She seems to glow with happiness, and honestly, you feel it a little too.
  113. >However, you’re about to make her happier.
  114. “Addie, don’t get me wrong, I’m overjoyed, no that’s that the right word.”
  115. >You shake your head and let out a slight chuckle.
  116. “There is no words for this right now, but I still have to explain what I’ve been up to.”
  117. >You’ve never held a pony, but she is so light against your form.
  118. >”...Okay...I just had to...Tell you before I lost the strength...”
  119. >Yeah that figures, the past days you were pretty certain she was going to say it.
  120. >Though you kept thinking you misheard it.
  121. “That’s fair. I’ve been working with a couple of ponies to help achieve your dream. It wasn’t easy, but in the end, we managed to make a working set of prototype wings. Cherry and Twilight did most of the work, but I helped out where I could. That’s why I’ve been arriving late.”
  122. >Her face goes through a series of emotions.
  123. >Probably should say something dipshit.
  124. “I never mentioned what you’ve told me, just your dream of flying.”
  125. >She looks so confused right now.
  126. >”...Y-you convinced them..?...H-how did you d-do it..?”
  127. >Oh boy.
  128. “Long story short, answered a ton of questions for Twilight and was Cherry’s assistant more or less.”
  129. >Addie raises an eyebrow, but seemingly accepts it.
  130. >”...O-oh...You did all that...for me..?
  131. “Well, guess I was motivated by loneliness at first, but now, I can see I fell for you.”
  132. >Her eyes widen, she lets go of you to head to her easel and she turns it towards you.
  133.  
  134. >Your jaw drops as you look upon the picture she drew.
  135. >It’s of both you, in a large heart, holding one another.
  136. >The level of detail really is insane.
  137. >You slowly approach it and really take it in.
  138. >It even is painted extremely well, you’ve never been one for art, but this is something else.
  139. >It’s hard to stop staring at it.
  140. >”...I-if I couldn’t tell you...I’d show you instead...B-but I managed...S-somehow...”
  141. >You tear your eyes off the painting and look to her fidgeting around like she has before.
  142. >Though this time, there is a large blush on her face.
  143. >You close your eyes and shake your head, before reopening them.
  144. “This is honestly your best work yet Addie. I’m not just saying that because of our confessions either.”
  145. >She mumbles something still blushing.
  146. >You chuckle, she must be nervous still.
  147. >Time for the main event though.
  148. “So, ready to fly?”
  149. >Addie perks up and locks onto you.
  150. >”...R-really..?”
  151. “Of course, but Cherry is going to help out, she made the thing So, she will explain how it works to you. We will have to go outside though, more specifically, your back yard. Figured it was secluded enough for you.”
  152. >She looks a little afraid, but slowly nods.
  153. >”...Y-yeah...Okay...”
  154. >Need to solve that.
  155. “I will be right there with you, no worries.”
  156. >It calms her down a bit, and you head for the back door, stopping to see she hasn’t followed you yet.
  157. ”Addie? You coming?”
  158. >“...Y-yeah...Just one m-moment...”
  159. >A second later, she comes trotting slowly to join you.
  160. >She is shaking lightly, and you put your hand on her wither to calm her.
  161. >Though she jolts for a second, she looks up at you and slowly smiles.
  162. >”...I’m ready...”
  163. >As you step into the backyard, you see Cherry standing off to the side with the cart nearby.
  164. >She smiles when sees you two.
  165. >You both head over to her, though you have to start setting up pads just in case.
  166.  
  167. >Sure, the many tests that have been done have shown it’s safe, you don’t want to take any chances for Addie.
  168. >As you’re setting things up, you can hear the two talking.
  169. >>”Hello Addie, I’m Cherry.”
  170. >You hear Addie mumble out something, not surprising.
  171. >Cherry sighs, but continues on.
  172. >>”See? This is it. Anon, Twilight, and I have been working on them. In truth, I already was pretty far ahead in the design, but couldn’t actually fly, more like gliding...Or falling. That’s where Anon introduced me to Twilight, she managed to enchant it.”
  173. >Some silence, then Addie finally speaks up.
  174. >“...So...Um...H-how does this work..?”
  175. >Looking over, you see Cherry smile and start to explain it to her.
  176. >Addie still looks nervous, but you can tell she is trying at least.
  177. >You set down another pad, can’t have too many of these.
  178. >Though that made pulling the cart pretty damn hard, thankfully Cherry helped out.
  179. >As you finish up, you see Cherry finish helping Addie into the prototype.
  180. >>”That should do it, hey Anon, are you done yet?”
  181. “Yeah, I just finished, ready when you two are.”
  182. >Cherry nods and you head over to Addie to give her one final pep talk.
  183. >She is shaking lightly, so you kneel down and touch her.
  184. >Her eyes lock onto yours, her fear is quite apparent.
  185. “Everything will be fine, I’m right here with you.”
  186. >She closes her eyes, and takes a deep breath before letting it out slowly.
  187. >Her golden eyes reopen, and she smiles.
  188. >”...Okay...”
  189. “Time to fly Addie.”
  190. >You get up and back away.
  191. >She trots slowly to the padded area you set up.
  192. >Like before, the gemstone glows briefly and the wings come to life.
  193. >Slowly, Addie ascends off the ground, her face full of focus, like when she draws.
  194. >She rises to about ten feet and hovers a moment, her face breaks out into a large smile.
  195. >”...I-I’m flying..!..I’m really flying!”
  196. >Slowly starts to fly about.
  197. >You cheer for her.
  198.  
  199. “You’re really doing it Addie! You’re flying!”
  200. >>”Pretty good flying, almost a natural at it.”
  201. “Yeah, she is.”
  202. >Addie flies about, the whole time your eyes never leave her.
  203. >That smile never leaves her face.
  204. >Though soon enough, she descends and lands gently on one of the pads.
  205. >You quickly approach her and see that she is still grinning ear to ear.
  206. ”So, how was it?”
  207. >“..Amazing...”
  208. ”I bet it was Addie, glad to have made your dream come true.”
  209. >She nods, and mumbles something out.
  210. “Sorry, I didn’t quite hear that one Addie.”
  211. >”...J-just kneel down...”
  212. >You’re not sure what this is, but sure.
  213. >Kneeling in front of her, she quickly plants a kiss on your lips and pulls back with a grin.
  214. >”...Thank you...”
  215. “You’re welcome.”
  216. >You both smile at one another until Cherry lets out a cough that grabs both of your attention.
  217. >Well shit, forgot about her.
  218. >>”Uh, sorry to interrupt, but um. Can I get back the prototype? I’d like to go home and work on it more.”
  219. >You run your hand through your hair and see Addie is practically red in the face.
  220. >Slowly you help Addie out of it and you give the prototype back.
  221. >As Cherry puts it back on the cart, she turns to you both.
  222. >>”After I make more improvements, you can use it again. Consider it fair trade for helping me make my own dream come true.”
  223. >As she finishing loading up the cart, with your help of course, she turns to you both.
  224. >>”I’m gonna go unload and do some work, take care you two. Oh, and Anon?”
  225. >What does she want now?
  226. “Yeah?”
  227. >Cherry gets a big shit eating grin on her face.
  228. >>”Totally called it.”
  229. >That little shit, she giggles and trots off, leaving you two alone.
  230. >You turn to Addie and notice she looks confused.
  231. >”...Um..What was that a-about..?”
  232. “She kinda noticed that I was falling for you, so she called me out on it.”
  233. >”...Oh...Um...Anon..?”
  234.  
  235. “Yes Addie?”
  236. >She rubs one leg over the other and looks at you with a small smile.
  237. >”...Can we go back inside..?...I’d like to draw-No...I want to spend t-time with you...”
  238. >You smile and nod.
  239. “I’d like that.”
  240. >You both start to head back inside, and you’re looking forward to the future, more than ever.
