  1. I am not writing this totally because I want to be sexually taken advantaged of by an older woman. I wrote this in 2016.

  5. >*BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRING*
  6. >Your hands snap to your ears.
  7. >That bittersweet sound of a bell clinging all around you.
  8. >It signals the best time of the day for you.
  9. >Going home so that you don't have to talk to anyone anymore.
  10. >Well except one person.
  11. >The vice principal was always there for you, she was so understanding of the way you were.
  12. >You weren't deformed or anything.
  13. >You weren't dying of some terrible disease.
  14. >Just that you never ever had a knack for talking to people, social situations give you panic attacks.
  15. >Any time you did try talking to someone it always ended in another person who became disgusted by you.
  16. >Not enough to tell it to your face.
  17. >But enough so that they'd never tell anything to your face.
  18.  
  19. >You're expectantly brought back to reality.
  20. >It's Luna. Vice principal and only pers-
  21.  
  22. >"Hello anon!"
  23. >She's being cheeky.
  24. >You're still readjusting from school mode, ya know. Anxiety mode.
  25.  
  26. "Hi Luna."
  27.  
  28. >"I really wish you would call me auntie."
  29.  
  30. "Right Auntie."
  31.  
  32. >Luna gives a soft laugh and hugs you.
  33. >She's wearing her plush coat, you swear there was nothing more comforting.
  34. >So warm, and soft. You could fall asleep wrapped in those sleeves...
  35.  
  36. >Pulling yourself back to reality this time, you realize you've been hugging the vice principal in front of the school doors.
  37. >Again.
  38.  
  39. >"Let's get you home. Your mother has to... work late tonight."
  40. >Meaning the Principal had another late session of rubbing elbows with rich parents, politicians, and celebrities.
  41. >People looking to schmooze mom for their kids to gain admission into her prestigious school.
  42.  
  43. "Thanks Luna."
  44.  
  45. >She sighs and leads you both to her car.
  46. >The car ride is quiet for the most part.
  47. >There's no music, neither you or Luna enjoy the radio.
  48. >Instead you opt to daydream some more.
  49. >Some new cartoon you started watching, Small Horse Friends are Good?
  50. >You're not sure of the name, but what's got you interested mostly is the musical numbers.
  51. >They're fun and catchy to you in way this week's top 40 can't nail.
  52.  
  53. >Trance broken, Luna's humming something.
  54. >Sounds really familiar too.
  55. >Like one of the songs from the show.
  56. >Still humming she flashes you a wink and boops your nose.
  57.  
  58. >And then you realized why she was humming.
  59. >Because you are.
  60. >You sink into your seat and blush redder than the blood of 72 virgins.
  61.  
  62. >"Don't worry kiddo. Your secret is safe with me."
  63.  
  64. >"Uh huh... add it to the collection."
  65.  
  66. >Luna had an international bank amount of your secrets. But true to her word, she never broke your trust.
  67.  
  68. >"So how do you-
  69.  
  70. >"I was a little girl once, so it was okay for me to watch shows about ponies. Why can't it still be that way?"
  71.  
  72. "Because it's a show for kids, people would make fun of you."
  73.  
  74. >She snaps her fingers to point at you.
  75.  
  76. >"Us."
  77.  
  78. "Right, make fun of us."
  79.  
  80. >A passing moment of silence, Luna rubs your cheek.
  81.  
  82. >"Well I'm not gonna tell anyone."
  83.  
  84. >You lay your hand over hers, it's calming.
  85.  
  86. "Auntie. Do you wanna watch an episode or two since mom is gonna be a while?"
  87.  
  88. >"Sure thing kiddo."
  89. >The two of you hum the rest of the ride home.
  90. >You're wrapped up nice and tight with a blanket, you have a tall glass of root beer, and a bowl of popcorn.
  91. >You've acquired all the necessities for some good ol' fashion cartoon watching with a grown woman.
  92. ...
  93. >Maybe this is why no one wants to hang out with you.
  94.  
  95. >Before you could dwell on that thought Luna comes in dressed in PJ's.
  96.  
  97. "Isn't it like 4 in the afternoon?"
  98.  
  99. >She doesn't even say a word, just plops herself right next to you on the couch.
  100. >"Play the one that has our song in it."
  101.  
  102. >Our song?
  103.  
  104. >Luna leans against you and pokes you in the side.
  105. >"I don't know which episode it is."
  106.  
  107. >You can never think with Luna around.
  108. >Always keeps you on your toes, but you don't really mind. Luna's always been there for you when you couldn't think right.
  109.  
  110. >The TV buzzes on, faint static as you browse through your recordings.
  111. >Good thing mom never has time to watch TV. She probably wouldn't approve of you watching this.
  112. >Warm smiles spread over both of your faces, it's a rare opportunity to share something that you like with anyone.
  113. >Except for Luna.
  114.  
  115. ...
  116.  
  117. >Midway through the episode, the song comes up.
  118. >Just as you hoped, Luna starts humming along to it again.
  119. >You join in.
  120. >No one gets you like Luna.
  121. >Why can't you share this with someone else?
  122. >Anyone else.
  123. >Habits as they are, she wraps her arm around you and gives you a hug as the song ends.
  124. >Train of though broken you lean into her embrace, cuddling up to her side and sharing your blanket.
  125. >She squeezes you tighter.
  126.  
  127. >Why did it have to be always and only Luna?
  128. >When you wake up it's late.
  129. >You're not sure what time it is but it was definitely bright out when you started watching.
  130. >It's dark now, everything is dark. The TV has been turned off.
  131. >Guess Ms. Principal came home finally.
  132. >Couldn't even wake you up to ask you how your day was, what you had for lunch, the weather. Not even a goodnight.
  133.  
  134. >Luna's more like a mother than an aunt.
  135. >She's taken care of you more than her sister ever has or probably ever will.
  136. >Always the one for you.
  137. >There for you, you mean.
  138. >You slap your forehead a couple times.
  139. >Need to get rid of these thoughts. Luna would trust you with anything, you shouldn't be thinking about betraying that trust.
  140. >Maybe she's awake, she always has a way to keep you from thinking too much.
  141.  
  142. "Luna?"
  143.  
  144. >Prodding her side a bit, she's deep asleep.
  145. >Very deep asleep...
  146.  
  147. >No.
  148. >I would never do something to hurt her.
  149.  
  150. ...
  151.  
  152. >But maybe it wouldn't hurt her?
  153. >Just something small, and then you could stop.
  154. >Just a quick peck on the cheek?
  155.  
  156. >You look up at Luna to check that she's still sleeping.
  157. >Cautiously, slowly you shimmy up against her until your breath brushes against her round, healthy cheeks.
  158.  
  159. >"Pucker up you dumb nerd."
  160.  
  161. >You're frozen in place, did she know what was going on?
  162. >Was she trying to kiss you?
  163. >A quick double take at her eyes shows they're still clo-
  164. >Luna overpowers you quickly, wrapping her arms under yours and behind your head.
  165. >You feel, warm.
  166. >You feel bubbly.
  167. >Your aunt is kissing you.
  168. >She pulls your head into her's, a mash of confusion and joy.
  169.  
  170. >You've never kissed someone before, not on the lips.
  171.  
  172. >So wet, so soft, so perfect.
  173. >Like her lips were made for you and only you.
  174. >You're lost in her hold, her breath.
  175. >But she pulls back.
  176. >Looking at her, it seems she has woken up.
  177.  
  178. >"O-oh my god."
  179.  
  180. >You know this.
  181. >Seen it all the time, experienced it more.
  182. >She's having a panic attack.
  183. >Or about to at least.
  184.  
  185. "Wait Luna I didn't mean to freak you out."
  186.  
  187. >"Did you do this?"
  188.  
  189. "N-no. I just.. not mostly."
  190.  
  191. >"What do you mean mostly?"
  192.  
  193. "You started kissing me. I was just trying to kiss your cheek that's all."
  194. >Yeah that makes it better.
  195.  
  196. >"Oh no. That dream, and you."
  197.  
  198. >She's about to cry at this point.
  199. >At a loss for words you do what would always make you feel better.
  200. >Arms wrapped around her, cradling her the best you can. Hands running through her hair, you coo to her that it's okay.
  201.  
  202. >It takes a few minutes, but Luna composes herself.
  203. >Well, mostly anyways.
  204.  
  205. >"Why are you not freaking out? I thought girls scared you."
  206.  
  207. "You're just very special to me, I-I've wanted to for a while."
  208.  
  209. >"Anon, you can't have these kinds of thoughts about me. It's, immoral."
  210.  
  211. "I know, and it's supposed to feel wrong but I don't."
  212.  
  213. >Luna cranes her head, eye to eye with you. You're locked in her soul and she is locked in your gaze.
  214. "I think I love you Luna."
  215. >If there was ever a way to cripple someone's spirit it would be through their heart, mind, or body.
  216. >Which have you just struck.
  217.  
  218. >"You don't mean that."
  219.  
  220. "I do. Aren't I special to you too?"
  221.  
  222. >"Of course you are anon, and..."
  223.  
  224. >Luna's expression is one of complete disbelief.
  225. >Go through your whole life as second place. What can you do when someone makes you first. In the most sincere way they can.
  226. >She's crying into your arms, droplets of moisture stain your shirt.
  227.  
  228. ---
  229.  
  230. >This could not be more terrible.
  231. >He's my nephew. I am practically his mother, I raised him more than Celestia ever did.
  232. >But, I can't remember the last time someone meant those words for me.
  233. >Looked at me in such a way of genuineness
  234. >I don't love him like that. He's my family.
  235.  
  236. >Though I know what is right it feels so hard to do.
  237. >Maybe I'm the second to Celestia for a reason.
  238.  
  239. >Just for a little while. I'll fix this.
  240. >For now though, let someone make me their everything? He doesn't deserve that.
  241. >I don't deserve that.
  242. >I am a bad person.
  243.  
  244. ---
  245.  
  246. >Luna pulls you down to lay with her on the couch.
  247.  
  248. >"And I love you too."
  249.  
  250. >Your breathing becomes faster.
  251. >So does hers.
  252.  
  253. >"Please, don't tell sister."
  254.  
  255. ---
  256.  
  257. >Waking up is always hard.
  258. >Especially when you have such a comfy bed.
  259. >Except this wasn't a bed.
  260. >It was a couch.
  261. >A couch you were sharing with your nephew.
  262. >Everything feels like a fever dream. You couldn't have been responsible for this.
  263. >Half naked, your shirt's open but you've got no panties on.
  264. >You sit up and pull towards the ceiling.
  265. >A good stretch as any.
  266. >Relaxing again, you look into your nephew's face.
  267. >He's smiling.
  268. >Checking your phone it's still pretty early, 4 or so am.
  269. >Sister doesn't wake up until 6 or so. Maybe even a little later with her late night at work.
  270. >You sink back into the couch, another 15 minutes.
  271. >So warm, he's so cute.
  272. >You can handle this problem later, let a good thing be a good thing. For a little while at least.
  273.  
  274. ---
  275.  
  276. >A good internal clock is a requirement for any good student.
  277. >It's probably 6ish.
  278. >Your eyes peel open, it seems you're still cuddling with Luna.
  279. >Thinking to yourself, 'why am I naked?'
  280. >Maybe more than just cuddling.
  281. >But this is good right?
  282. >This is the closest people can be right?
  283. >Maybe this is how Luna shows her love for you.
  284. >Your memory is fuzzy, but that's okay.
  285. >She loves you, she even said so.
  286. >Thoughts of Luna are interrupted by thoughts of...
  287. >School!
  288. >It's hard, but you pull yourself away from Luna.
  289. >Cover her up so mom doesn't freak out.
  290. >Now to cover yourself, no nightmares of going to school nude.
  291.  
  292. >You're frantic to get dressed, brush your teeth, regular routine.
  293. >Mother's almost finished herself, when you think to yourself.
  294.  
  295. "I can do something to break a little routine. For her."
  296. >No breakfast, instead you opt to sit next to Luna.
  297. >Holding her hand and stroking her hair.
  298. >Just before Celestia is downstairs, you give smooch to Luna.
  299. >Only a second but it feels like years, a string of saliva between lips.
  300. >You whisper,
  301.  
  302. "I love you auntie."
  303.  
  304. >Quickly back to morning mode, you stand at attention by the door.
  305. >Footsteps from above, she's in front of you ready to start a normal day.
  306.  
  307. >"Good morning mom."
  308.  
  309. >And just like every morning she nods and leads you both out the front door.
  310.  
  311. ...
  312.  
  313. >The car ride is very quite.
  314. >Per usual, but mother seems extra quiet. Maybe she saw last night?
  315. >It's not like you, but this anxiety is too much for you.
  316.  
  317. "So Luna stayed the night."
  318.  
  319. >"Yup."
  320.  
  321. "Does it bother you?"
  322.  
  323. >"It does when she distracts you from homework, chores, and you distract her from work."
  324.  
  325. "But she's my only friend and she's usually so busy. It was just today."
  326.  
  327. She purses her lips.
  328. Wrong move.
  329.  
  330. >"Maybe you should make some friends closer to your age"
  331.  
  332. "Is it bad that I'm friends with Luna?"
  333.  
  334. >"No, but I think she encourages some of your... bad habits."
  335.  
  336. >Not this conversation again.
  337. >It's not your fault no one else understands you like her.
  338. >She's probably just upset that auntie likes you more.
  339.  
  340. "I think you should be nicer to auntie"
  341.  
  342. >Instead of a reply, Celestia just groans.
  343. >You slump against the passenger seat.
  344. >The car is quiet again.
  345. >In fact there are no words passed between you two.
  346. >Not parking.
  347. >Not walking to the front doors.
  348. >Not parting ways at the front desk.
  349.  
  350. "I hope mom isn't mad at me."
  351.  
  352. >Class passes normally.
  353. >Well normally for you.
  354. >No one talks to you, you don't rise to answer any teachers.
  355. >In a last ditch effort to not think about auntie you tell a girl with fiery red hair that she's pretty.
  356. >Which to save face you instead squeak out that she's pretty good at making her hair look clean.
  357.  
  358. >She called you a creepy fag as she walked off.
  359. >Could have been worse.
  360. >When lunch hits your bouncing in your desk, knowing exactly who you want to spend it with.
  361.  
  362. ---
  363.  
  364. >Probably should have worked on some of these new memos instead of watching cartoons.
  365. >All these teacher complaints, why does it seem like sister never does any of this tedious junk?
  366. >You hear a knock and your heart skips a beat.
  367. >Oh, it's just anon.
  368. >This is too cute, usually you eat lunch alone. Hacking away at papers.
  369. >How thoughtful that someone would come just to eat with me.
  370.  
  371. >"Come in!"
  372.  
  373. >You do a terrible job at hiding how pleased you are.
  374. >You hope your not blushing.
  375.  
  376. ---
  377.  
  378. >When enter Luna's office she's redder than a SweetApple Acres Apple®.
  379. >You set down your lunch on the edge of her desk.
  380.  
  381. >"Hello anon. You are looking excited today. What has got you in such a good mood?"
  382. >As if she didn't know.
  383. >You lean in and give her a kiss.
  384.  
  385. >Luna pushes you away.
  386.  
  387. >"Are you crazy?"
  388.  
  389. "I j-just thought it's what people who loved each other did."
  390.  
  391. >Luna's heart can't take this much of a beating.
  392. >Pulling on hair slightly,
  393.  
  394. >"Just not here at school. We do have a policy on PSA."
  395.  
  396. "Okay. I promise just hugs then."
  397.  
  398. >She sighs, this is gonna get out of hand quickly if she doesn't put her foot down.
  399. >It's a good thing Luna has her own office, probably would have been fired for that.
  400. >If not jailed.
  401. >Luna does actually seem to be busy with her work.
  402. >She spends most of the lunch period continuing her papers one handed.
  403. >You have taken grasp of her other with yours.
  404. >The blush on her face hadn't left since you entered her office.
  405. >If anything it's brighter now.
  406.  
  407. >You spend most of the lunch with her talking about cartoons and the most recent visual novel you were "playing".
  408. >Luna teases you about them not being real games but not in a mean spirited way.
  409. >She has her own taste in that sort of thing, there's harmony where your hobbies overlap.
  410. >And you're both always happy to hear about where they don't.
  411. >As the break comes to an end Luna's finding it harder to contain herself.
  412. >You hear her mumble something.
  413.  
  414. >There's no point in half assedly enjoying this before shutting it down.
  415. >"Anon, before you go back to class. I want you to get down on your knees."
  416.  
  417. >You're caught completely off guard by her request.
  418. "What d-do you mean?"
  419.  
  420. >"I want you to come kneel in front of me, and kiss me. Not on the lips."
  421.  
  422. >Luna's not usually this aggressive.
  423. >But she probably just wants to know you really love her.
  424. >It's only natural, She has to be sure it's not just puppy love.
  425. >Without another word you're down on your knees, face to crotch.
  426. >Her legs spread giving you a very, clear view up her skirt.
  427. >Seeing your hesitation Luna wraps her legs around your back and pulls you in.
  428. >"Lick it, do it for auntie."
  429.  
  430. >Unable to give another word, you listen to her and open your mouth.
  431. >You're not really sure what to do, kind of just lapping at her panties and kissing what you think is supposed to be right.
  432. >Luna seems to be enjoying herself at least.
  433.  
  434.  
  435. >Luna is speechless, the color draining from her cheeks after anon leaves her office.
  436. >She feels her wetness.
  437.  
  438. >"I've made a terrible mistake."
  439. >She releases you and pulls your head back.
  440. >A big dumb grin on her face,
  441.  
  442. >"You did not have to do that you know."
  443.  
  444. "Well I want you to know I'm serious."
  445.  
  446. >You come up to eye level with her.
  447.  
  448. >"I love you Luna."
  449.  
  450. >You quickly lean in for another sloppy kiss.
  451. >You wonder if you're a bad kisser.
  452. >Have to ask her later about it.
  453.  
  454. >Collecting your things, you promptly leave her office.
  455. >Should probably wash your face before you head to class.
  456. >Luna cries quietly in her office, no one noticing, before attempting to work again.
  457. >The bells ring, everyone joins in a collective sigh of relief at another day done.
  458. >Especially you, never have you been so excited to get to go home with Luna.
  459. >Usually you'd meet her by the front doors.
  460. >But today is special.
  461. >You sprint down the halls, catching some glares and stares but you don't care.
  462. >You're not afraid of what others think for once.
  463.  
  464. >Luna is in her office tidying up to leave when you knock on it.
  465. >She pinches the bridge of her nose, chuckling at your enthusiasm.
  466. >All of her work for the day finished, she triumphantly leaves her office and gives you a hug.
  467.  
  468. ---
  469.  
  470. >There's nothing wrong with hugs right?
  471. >It's not the first time I've hugged my nephew in front of my colleagues.
  472. >Not to say my colleagues give a damn about me outside of weekly meetings.
  473.  
  474. >"Hey you want to do something a little fun today?"
  475.  
  476. >Cautious, Anon nods his head at me.
  477. >Is he more scared than I am?
  478.  
  479. ---
  480.  
  481. >Both of you leave the school together, stopping by Celestia's office to wave her goodbye.
  482. >She's busy again with some parent on the phone.
  483. >Formalities out of the way you both leave in Luna's car.
  484. >School behind you, you're on your way to Luna's "fun".
  485.  
  486. >With a little more confidence in your words,
  487.  
  488. "So what kind of fun were you thinking?"
  489.  
  490. >"I was thinking," she rubs her chin, "that we'd go get some sweets from Sugarcube Express ®, order pizza, and sit in tonight watching more cartoons."
  491.  
  492. >Luna looks over to you, with your head down almost looking sad.
  493. >She's about to cry when you immediately perk up.
  494.  
  495. "That sounds great!"
  496.  
  497. >A smile returns to her face from your sudden outburst.
  498. >Her eyes thankfully return to the road as you both lean back into your seats.
  499. >Silence overlaps another of your car rides.
  500. >But this silence, is a good silence.
  501. >No words need to pass between you two.
  502.  
  503. >Luna lays one of her hands on your lap, and with a new found confidence interlock your fingers in hers.
  504. >A warmth you've never felt before sweeps over you.
  505. >Meanwhile Luna is using all of her willpower to not break down.
  506. >To the both of you it feels like eternity.
  507. >For very different reasons.
  508.  
  509. >After the emotional car ride is over you arrive at Sugarcube.
  510. >It's a medium sized joint. Larger than a coffee joint for hipsters, but smaller than your southern bbq restaurant.
  511. >You think you know someone who works here, or maybe she was the owner's daughter.
  512. >You were never really sure.
  513. >Her name was Pinkie, very friendly but too extroverted for you to get along with.
  514. >She probably wouldn't want to be around a creep like you.
  515.  
  516. >You get out of the car almost before Luna finishes parking.
  517. >You needed this chance to show her how polite you could be.
  518. >You open the door for her and prompt her for another weaving of your hands.
  519. >The blush on her face could be seen from space.
  520. >Although it might be from embarrassment this time, this might be a little silly.
  521. >Even so, she takes your hand and steps out with you.
  522.  
  523. >When you two step inside the store you see Pinkie is working the front desk.
  524. >How topical.
  525.  
  526. >"Hi nonny and Vice Principal Luna!"
  527.  
  528. >You think, "holy shit you dumb whore don't ever call me that fucking name."
  529.  
  530. >But instead you wave hi and try not to look embarrassed.
  531.  
  532. ---
  533.  
  534. >Why doesn't anon just try to be friend with this girl? She's one of the only people besides myself I've seen be nice to him.
  535. >Maybe I should try to set them up.
  536. >She might be the only person who can help me wipe my hands clean of this mess.
  537. >This hot handsy mess...
  538.  
  539. ---
  540.  
  541. >While Luna begins thinking about how surprisingly well you used your hands last night you inspect the menu.
  542.  
  543. >Deep dished Sambonitas, Triple Dipped Chocolate Zignuts, Fresh Made Mona Sheestas...
  544. >What was any of this supposed to mean?
  545.  
  546. "Um Pinkie. Could we have a dozen of..." pointing to what look like sheets of white chocolate covered graham crackers sprinkled in, something.
  547.  
  548. "Some of those cracker things?"
  549. >"You got it."
  550.  
  551. >As Pinkie is wrapping up the sweets for you, an inexpiable urge to scream at her runs through your body.
  552. >She's going to ask you something about parties.
  553.  
  554. >"So what do ya need all these chocolates for? Getting a little wild tonight? Just the VP and her right hand man. I totally know how you feel! This one time[...]"
  555. >Always parties with this vapid cunt
  556. >Never could she not figure out when people didn't want her around.
  557. >When people wanted to be left alone by her.
  558. >You weren't just another customer for her to leave be she had to be a part of your day, apart of your life.
  559.  
  560. >You trail off in contempt, Pinkie trails off in speech, and Luna trails off in fantasy.
  561. >None of you even noticed the owners, Mr. and Mrs. Cake, stride out of the kitchen with dozens of cakes in tow.
  562. >Or their second trip cakes.
  563. >Or their departure via a Van in desperate need of a muffler maintenance.
  564.  
  565. >Finally with Luna's day dream finished in a happy ending she notices you and Pinkie have been talking this entire time.
  566. >Or at the very least Pinkie was talking and you were listening really well.
  567. >She's been going non stop actually.
  568.  
  569. >"[...]and I could call up Vinyl too. She's always got such a great mixtape for any occasion."
  570.  
  571. >"Planning a little celebration for something?"
  572.  
  573. >"Uh huh. Anon still hasn't let me throw a party for him yet. So we'd be celebrating his first!"
  574.  
  575. >"How come you never told me about this before anon?"
  576.  
  577. >Anger soothed by the sound of Luna's voice but you weren't quite sure what she asked you.
  578. >Naturally you respond the only way you know how in a situation like this.
  579.  
  580. "You too."
  581. >Refraining from laughter Luna tries again.
  582.  
  583. >"Anonymous why would you reject an offer like that? Who wouldn't want to celebrate their first time?"
  584.  
  585. >Pinkie giggles at Luna's way with words.
  586.  
  587. >"You mean first time meeting me right?"
  588.  
  589. >Panicked by her misjudgment in phrasing Luna quickly covers her tracks.
  590.  
  591. >"Yes."
  592.  
  593. >Nailed it.
  594. >In an attempt to evacuate before Luna lets something worse slip she slams a 50 on the counter for Pinkie.
  595. >Luna grabs the bag of chocolates in one hand, and with yours in the other, removes you both from the premise.
  596.  
  597. >"What about your change?"
  598.  
  599. >"Keep it!"
  600.  
  601. >"And the party?"
  602.  
  603. >"He'll call you!"
  604.  
  605. ---
  606.  
  607. >Thankfully whether or not anon does have Pinkie's number could be easily rectified by school records.
  608. >What's the harm giving away student information?
  609. >A small price to pay to get out of this tragedy.
  610. >Anything to get anon to stop loving you this way.
  611.  
  612. ---
  613.  
  614. "Why would you do that Luna?"
  615.  
  616. >Back in the car you are the first to break the tension.
  617.  
  618. >"Do you not like Pinkie?"
  619.  
  620. "No. She's an obnoxious attention whore."
  621.  
  622. >"I'm sure she's just being friendly. Just wants to make you feel... not alone."
  623.  
  624. "I don't need her to make me feel like that. You already make me feel like that a thousand times over."
  625.  
  626. >"Then perhaps it would do you well to make friends your own age."
  627.  
  628. >There's a pause, an angry and sad tinge to your next words.
  629. "That's exactly what your sister would say."
  630.  
  631. >Luna has no words to describe how much that statement hurts.
  632. >You know exactly how much she hates being compared to your mother.
  633. >But she shouldn't try to force something like that on you.
  634. >The both of you know that most people and you do not mix well.
  635. >Why is she trying to pawn you off now onto someone else?
  636.  
  637. >If there was anything you were ever good at it was dropping a conversation dead.
  638. >The distance between your home and the sweets shop is probably less than a mile.
  639. >It feels like five hundred inside that car.
  640. >It feels like the interior is shrinking around you like a mime trapped in a box.
  641. >Maybe you shouldn't have said that.
  642. >Is Luna mad?
  643. >Is this why she was trying to have you spend time with someone else?
  644. >Is she tired of you?
  645. >Does she still love you?
  646.  
  647. >Before you know it you start mumbling gibbering and hyperventilating.
  648. >You've curled into a fetal position in your seat.
  649. >This was a terrible idea.
  650. >How could Luna ever love you, she's so compassionate and nice and always knows what to do.
  651. >And all you do is make things harder for her, annoy her.
  652. >The car is now parked.
  653. >Luna is holding you in her arms as well.
  654.  
  655. >"This all happened so fast."
  656.  
  657. >She's cooing to you, massaging your shoulders.
  658. >She's laid a hand on your cheek and you feel her cooling touch.
  659.  
  660. >"Lets go home and watch some more of our show okay?"
  661.  
  662. >You simply nod and keep mumbling. Burying your face into her chest.
  663. >You hadn't even noticed you were neck deep in her breasts, they were just a part of something, someone so much better.
  664. >It takes a minute or two but you calm down again.
  665. >Thanks to Luna of course.
  666. >Finished awkwardly leaning over the center console you re seat yourself.
  667. >Luna starts the car and you're on the path again.
  668. >Again it's not a long distance to the Sugarcube from home.
  669. >Before you know it you've unloaded from Luna's Hooveda Civic.
  670.  
  671. >Mom's car wasn't here.
  672. >But you're used to it at this point.
  673. >She had seemed to get busier when you started going to Canterlot High.
  674. >Trying to avoid you most likely, it was just easier to pawn you off on her sister.
  675. >At least Luna was someone you don't mind being pawned off to.
  676.  
  677. >Taking your positions on the couch with chocolates in hand you prepared to tune out the world with technicolor horses and the woman you loved.
  678.  
  679. ---
  680.  
  681. >The credits roll, with the episode finished you feel another urge eating away at you.
  682.  
  683. >"Anonymous, I need you to do something for me."
  684.  
  685. >There is a special place in hell for those who betray someone's trust.
  686. >And you are going there if you keep this up.
  687.  
  688. "What's the matter auntie?"
  689.  
  690. >"It's hard for me to reach my back in the shower, do you think you could help me out and..."
  691.  
  692. >You are still going to get that party with the pink girl going.
  693. >So what's the harm enjoying the last of the ride?
  694.  
  695. >"take care of that spot for me?"
  696.  
  697. ---
  698.  
  699. >Now you were blushing at Luna's words.
  700. >It wasn't that you hadn't become, intimate with her.
  701. >Especially after last night.
  702.  
  703. >But it was dark, she couldn't see what you looked like under clothes.
  704. >Misshapen, pale, hairy in weird places.
  705. >All the girls at your school who were almost as pretty as Luna had boyfriends who were pretty.
  706. >You weren't pretty though, or handsome, or to be blunt.
  707. >Attractive.
  708.  
  709. >Whilst mulling it over, Luna's led you to the bathroom.
  710. >She has already unbuttoned her shirt, she's been tugging at yours too.
  711.  
  712. >Before your top comes off you stop her.
  713. >You need to ask.
  714.  
  715. "Can we leave the light off?"
  716.  
  717. >It was dark enough outside, maybe she wouldn't be able to see again.
  718.  
  719. >"Sure, but why?"
  720.  
  721. "I just don't think you'll be pleased with what you see."
  722.  
  723. >You look down and shuffle your feet.
  724. >This was harder than you thought.
  725.  
  726. >Meanwhile Luna's heart is falling apart.
  727.  
  728. >"So adorable."
  729.  
  730. >She places her hands on your hips with her thumbs slipped under the hem of your t - shirt.
  731. >Sliding her hands up your body, feeling every inch of your chest.
  732.  
  733. >"Don't be shy anon. I've seen you naked before."
  734.  
  735. >Her hands find their way to your back and she leans into you, pushing you against the wall.
  736. >Luna is stall for a woman but you were also somewhat short, almost a head taller she is still surprisingly overpowering you.
  737.  
  738. "But I was a lot younger then!"
  739.  
  740. >"You know how much you masturbate? I've caught a peek once or twice."
  741.  
  742. >You should be less risky with your masturbation.
  743. >The living room couch was probably not a safe place anymore.
  744. You're blushing out of control.
  745. >This is a lot different when you are fully awake, focused.
  746. >Luna is pretty focused too, focused on you.
  747.  
  748. >She pulls your shirt up and off of you.
  749. >Her hands have found their way all over, carressing hips, waist, back and neck.
  750. >The touch of her fingers has your brain overloading.
  751. >So natural, she has no problem using her hands.
  752. >Unlike you.
  753. >You have turned in a short mess of a boy, with your hands frozen to the wall.
  754. >But Luna understands your anxiety, she takes your hands and places them on her rump.
  755.  
  756. >She presses against you, body to body, with one of her perfect thighs grinding against yours.
  757. >She turns your head to the side and with a whisper so sweet,
  758.  
  759. >"I want your fingers inside me."
  760.  
  761. "Y-yes a-auntie."
  762.  
  763. >At the sound of auntie she bites her lip and pushes against your crotch.
  764.  
  765. "B-but auntie, what about the shower?"
  766.  
  767. >She nips at your ear.
  768.  
  769. >"As you wish."
  770.  
  771. >Luna leads you into the bathroom, walking backwards to keep your hands grasped firmly where they belong.
  772. >Shutting the door behind you with a kick Luna removes her hands from you and your hands from her.
  773. >She turns around.
  774.  
  775. >"Undress me."
  776.  
  777. >You've run out of ways to signal her your awkwardness.
  778. >If it's what Luna wants.
  779. >You unzip her dress, sneak your hands underneath the shoulder and slide the dress up.
  780. >Or at least you try.
  781. >Having never de robed anyone much less a woman you get it stuck covering Luna's face and arms.
  782.  
  783. "Uh... I'm sorry."
  784.  
  785. >Luna turns around and bends to look at you through her dress cave.
  786.  
  787. >"Look at me I'm a sandworm."
  788.  
  789. "Beetlejuice!"
  790.  
  791. >She prys her dress off exposing her somewhat small breasts.
  792. >They weren't disappointing, not at all, but served to her as another inadequacy compared to Celestia.
  793. >Needing some approval Luna rubs them up against you.
  794. >Taking your hands and placing them on her backstrap, she orders you.
  795.  
  796. >"Undo my latch."
  797.  
  798. >You couldn't stop now, you try fiddling with the latch but once again to no avail.
  799. >You're face to face with Luna.
  800. >She is getting frustrated.
  801.  
  802. >"Just fucking rip it."
  803.  
  804. >Without a second thought you do.
  805. >Two strips of fabric loose in your hand fall.
  806. >Luna is bare to you, her nipples are perky on her petite breasts.>A sigh is released from Luna.
  807. >This was slightly harder than she expected.
  808. >Without any hiccups she pulls your shirt off revealing your chest.
  809. >You're not fat or anything, but you're not exactly an Adonis.
  810.  
  811. >Quickly you cover your chest and stomach best you can.
  812. >Luna loves it.
  813. >Seeing you blush harder, she moves in and grabs your wrists away.
  814.  
  815. >"Oh you are so adorable."
  816.  
  817. >She leans down and licks your chest.
  818.  
  819. >"I could eat you up~"
  820.  
  821. >She aggressively bites your chest, aiming for your nipple.
  822. >A yelp is let out at the surprise.
  823.  
  824. "That hurt Luna!"
  825.  
  826. >"I bet it did."
  827.  
  828. >She turns away and steps out of her panties.
  829. >You knew Luna was pretty, you've always thought so.
  830. >But the sway of her hips, the right amount of cushion in every spot, it's the first time you see Luna as...
  831. >Sexy.
  832. >If there was one thing even Luna was sure she had over her sister it was her hips.
  833.  
  834. >"I want you to get relaxed and get in when you're ready."
  835. >"Don't keep me waiting."
  836.  
  837. >Luna hops into the shower and pulls the curtain.
  838. >It gives some minor privacy to you, as if it it would make this any easier.
  839. >Your hands shake uncontrollably.
  840. >You've done this before.
  841. >Just now you're in the moment, you have to be in the moment.
  842. >Luna must be getting impatient, you can hear her tapping her feet faster.
  843. >Clumsily, you take off your pants. And all that is left, is your underwear.
  844.  
  845. >You must look like a 5 year old, standing awkwardly in your undies in front of the shower to bath with your aunt.
  846. >Maybe it's not so weird?
  847. >Just two family members helping each other wash each other's backs.
  848. >Completely normal.
  849.  
  850. "Luna?"
  851.  
  852. >"What's the matter?"
  853.  
  854. "Can you, take them off for me?"
  855.  
  856. >She peaks her head out from behind the curtains.
  857. >With a smile she gestures you to come hither.
  858.  
  859. >"You have nothing to be ashamed of."
  860.  
  861. >She slowly reveals your nether region.
  862. >A seismometer could detect your heartbeat right now.
  863.  
  864. >"Get in."
  865.  
  866. "Yes auntie."
  867.  
  868. ---
  869.  
  870. >Oh how you loved this.
  871. >Older boys-
  872. >You mean guys your age were never like this.
  873. >Always arrogant and had to show how much a big man they were.
  874. >There was nothing more satisfying than a guy you could take control of.
  875. >And he loves every second of it.
  876.  
  877. ---
  878.  
  879. >You have never been more nervous in your life.
  880. >You are a highschool kid showering with your aunt.
  881. >Nothing has prepared you, for how to deal with this.
  882. >There are no words.
  883. >There was no chance for you, no need for Luna.
  884. >She had laid you on your back, and straddled you.
  885. >You couldn't help yourself at this point.
  886. >Some part of your mind was still telling you this was wrong.
  887. >A piece of sanity in this scenario that shouldn't have transcribed.
  888.  
  889. >You did and didn't want it to be this way, but you couldn't deny.
  890. >The feel of Luna's... femininity on your head was still incredible.
  891. >Locking eyes with each other, the nervousness you were feeling disappears.
  892. >Many times there is an opportunity for someone to do the right thing, but instead you both would opt to do the wrong thing.
  893. >Luna relaxes and takes you inside her.
  894. >She moans long and loud.
  895. >Whether she did it for her sake or yours you weren't sure.
  896. >That being said, Luna was definitely enjoying this for one reason or another.
  897.  
  898. >All of your length is in her when you both hear a crash.
  899. >It's extremely close.
  900. >As if it happened right outside the window.
  901. >In fact, when Luna stands up off of you she can see the source of the sound from the window.
  902. >A car has made friends with a light post on your street.
  903. >More concerning however, the car is one Luna recognized.
  904. >It was her sister's.
  905.  
  906. >"Oh no, oh god!"
  907.  
  908. >Luna quickly removes herself from the shower, drying off with a bathrobe.
  909.  
  910. "What's going on? Did I hurt you?"
  911.  
  912. >Scared and confused you check the window to see what your aunt saw.
  913. >And you understand her sudden outburst.
  914. >Because you feel one coming on as well.
  915.  
  916. ---
  917.  
  918. >You slap on a pair of shoes, anon's so you slide right in, and bolt out the door.
  919. >What spectacular timing, had sister not just interrupted you might have done something regrettable.
  920. >Done something regrettable again that is.
  921.  
  922. ...
  923.  
  924. >You're at Celestia's car and...
  925. >It only looks moderately terrible?
  926. >Please let it be only moderately terrible for sister.
  927. >You knock on the driver side window, you can hear mumbling but otherwise there's no reply.
  928. >A vain attempt at opening the door, sister drives with them locked for some paranoid reason.
  929.  
  930. >"I'm going to break the window! Cover your face!"
  931.  
  932. >You reel back to smash your elbow against the glass when a click sounds.
  933. >Oh, Celestia just unlocked her door.
  934. >Opening the door you survey the damage.
  935. >It's not pretty.
  936. >But Celestia seems okay.
  937. >Mostly anyway.
  938. >She had blood dripping from her forehead, and you can see her left leg mangled up a bit.
  939. >Scrapes and tears here and there.
  940.  
  941. >"Sister are you drunk?"
  942.  
  943. >"I'm hurt Luna."
  944.  
  945. >"You are drunk. What is wrong with you?"
  946.  
  947. >"I want someone to drive me to the hops spit table."
  948.  
  949. >Her speech is so incredibly slurred you're surprised she got this far.
  950. >You hear anon come out the door now, and his footsteps running to meet you.
  951.  
  952. >"Anon sweetie can you take Celestia to my car quickly?"
  953.  
  954. >Anon is mumbling and on the verge of tear, but you can't quell him right now either.
  955. >Regardless he lifts up his mother and begins helping her to your car.
  956. >For now you are going to hide the evidence.
  957. >The principal of an esteemed school, crashing her car drunk?
  958. >What would the parents say?
  959. >What would the board say?
  960. >Sister could lose her job, her career, everything.
  961.  
  962. >But you didn't get to be number 2 by stepping on people.
  963.  
  964. >It takes a few tries but her car still starts.
  965. >You remove it from the pole and park it in the garage.
  966. >Wouldn't want anyone to see this.
  967. >You could probably be able to get a favor from one of the shop teachers.
  968. >Throw a bonus their way for providing students with real world options or something like that.
  969.  
  970. >With the car parked you head to your car to check on your family.
  971. >Anon is crying in the back with his mother, holding her in his arms.
  972. >Sister seems to have fallen asleep.
  973.  
  974. >"Keep her awake sweetie, if she has a concussion she can't go to bed."
  975.  
  976. >He nods and tries to shake her awake.
  977. >Which does work, but now Celestia is drunkenly bitching at her son.
  978. >What a terrific mother she is.
  979.  
  980. >"Everything will be okay Anon. Just make sure she doesn't fall asleep okay?"
  981.  
  982. "O-okay auntie."
  983.  
  984. >You slap on Celestia's seatbelt with anon's help and get in the driver's seat.
  985. >Your car rumbles on and you hastily leave for the hospital.
  986. >There is going to be one hell of a conversation with sister in the morning.
  987. >She has some explaining to do.
  988.  
  989. ---
  990.  
  991. >Your mom has been calling you an asshole while you keep her awake.
  992. >Good thing she is too drunk to really strike deep.
  993.  
  994. >In your head things feel fine.
  995. >Mother crashed her car drunk, probably stressed about her son and work.
  996. >Luna is doing the responsible thing and taking her to the hospital.
  997. >And you are keeping her awake for her own good.
  998. >That being said, on the outside of your head, nothing feels right.
  999. >You're on the verge of crying.
  1000. >Actually, you are crying.
  1001. >Mom hasn't noticed.
  1002. >Neither has Luna...
  1003.  
  1004. >You arrive at the hospital and help Luna get mother out of the car.
  1005.  
  1006. >"How is she?"
  1007.  
  1008. "I'm okay."
  1009.  
  1010. >"I didn't mean-"
  1011.  
  1012. >You wish you could say the right words.
  1013. >You're not trying to be snappy with Luna or anything, but what you think is nowhere near what you're doing right now.
  1014. >So again, you recite,
  1015.  
  1016. "I'm okay."
  1017.  
  1018. >Luna sighs and you both carry Celestia through the automatic doors.
  1019. >You sit down with mother while Luna sees about signing her sister into Emergency care.
  1020. >She's away for a few minutes, but with your mom it feels like a few hours.
  1021.  
  1022. >"Quit being a little faggot honey, let me go to sleep already."
  1023.  
  1024. >"Luna said-"
  1025.  
  1026. >She pokes your side and heckles you some more.
  1027.  
  1028. >"I don't care what my dumb sister said, I'm tired."
  1029.  
  1030. >"Don't say that please, you need to stay awake. Or you won't wake up again."
  1031.  
  1032. >Perhaps that was a little melodramatic but ya know.
  1033. >Head and mouth not working together and all.
  1034.  
  1035. >"I would rather go to sleep forever so I don't have to deal with a kid like you. No friends, no talents, who's going to take care of me when I'm too old to do it myself? Sure as hell not you ya worthle-"
  1036.  
  1037. >You cut her off before she can go any further.
  1038.  
  1039. "We're taking care of you right now."
  1040.  
  1041. >"We're? Who's we?"
  1042.  
  1043. >God, that last comment really fucking hurt. But she does seem pretty delusional right now.
  1044. >She even seems to have forgotten that Luna is here.
  1045. >Speaking of which, here she comes to the rescue.
  1046. >"So it'll just be a 15 or so minute wait."
  1047.  
  1048. >Luna is looking composed for someone who's sister just crashed driving drunk.
  1049.  
  1050. >"There's not a whole lot of people here, they just need to find the available room for you. You're also getting an x-ray."
  1051.  
  1052. >Mom is paying no mind to her sister, she's still trying hard to sleep again.
  1053. >And you're still trying hard to keep her awake.
  1054. >Luna sits next to you, with an arm wrapped around you she kisses your cheek.
  1055. >It's not the same we she has been doing, something about it feels much more...
  1056. >Sincere?
  1057.  
  1058. >"She's gonna be okay, but how are you Anon?"
  1059.  
  1060. "I'm okay too. I don't want to sound selfish, but will mom make you take care of her until she gets better?"
  1061.  
  1062. >"What does that have to do with being selfish?"
  1063.  
  1064. "Are you going to have time to spend with me?"
  1065.  
  1066. >Luna stares blankley at the linoleum floor.
  1067. >She turns her eyes to Celestia and rubs he cheek.
  1068. >To which, Celestia attempts to swat away.
  1069. >However she isn't even close to Luna's hand.
  1070.  
  1071. >"I will always have time for everyone in our family. Especially you Anonymous. I'll sacrifice any of my free time not helping your mom making sure you are also being taken care of."
  1072.  
  1073. >She pulls you all into a sort of half assed group hug.
  1074.  
  1075. >"I understand doing the right thing for others more than you know."
  1076.  
  1077. >That's a very strange thing to say.
  1078. >But what matters is that Luna isn't going to abandon you.
  1079.  
  1080. >"Celestia Star?"
  1081.  
  1082. >You, Luna, and almost mom all snap your heads towards the receptionist.
  1083.  
  1084. >"Come on, let us get sister taken care of."
  1085.  
  1086. >You nod and join in carrying your drunk mother to the awaiting doctors.
  1087. >The nurse was nice enough to bring a gurney for mom..
  1088. >Or maybe she got hit so bad she needs it.
  1089.  
  1090. "Luna how bad did she get hurt?"
  1091.  
  1092. >"Well I think think she broke a leg. But I'm no doctor, we will know more after the x-rays and such."
  1093.  
  1094. >Luna's obsession with petting strikes again when she reaches for your cheeks.
  1095.  
  1096. >"Your mother is in good hands. Now I need to take you home. You can not be out this late on a school night."
  1097.  
  1098. "Are you sure? What if she gets worse by tomorrow?"
  1099.  
  1100. >With a sigh and a nudge towards the front doors,
  1101.  
  1102. >"Then the doctors will take care of it. Right now there's nothing we can do. Besides, she probably will not want to see anyone until she is at least sober."
  1103.  
  1104. >This time, you sigh and head towards the doors on your own accord.
  1105. >Luna's right though.
  1106. >Mom was being pretty belligerent, auntie doesn't want you to get hurt.
  1107. >Always looking out for you, what have you done for her?
  1108.  
  1109. >Another drive back with not talking, usually Luna has something to say.
  1110. >Although Luna has been surprising you a lot lately with her behavior.
  1111. >You hope she doesn't want to finish the shower, not that you wouldn't do it for auntie.
  1112. >But your heart couldn't take any more tonight.
  1113.  
  1114. ---
  1115.  
  1116. >You and anon pull up on the curb and head back inside.
  1117. >This really puts a downer on your fun tonight.
  1118. >"It's a little late isn't sweetie? I think I'm going to get some sleep, have a lot to explain to the staff in the morning."
  1119.  
  1120. "Are you leaving?"
  1121.  
  1122. >"Oh, no. Someone still needs to take you to school in the morning. I'll just commandeer the couch for-"
  1123.  
  1124. "You could sleep in my bed if you'd like."
  1125.  
  1126. >As a rolling mist sweeps over a bay, the air grows instantly thick.
  1127. >With a smug expression, you test your nephew's composure.
  1128.  
  1129. >"Are you sure anon? I would hate to put any more stress on you tonight."
  1130.  
  1131. "N-no. It's okay, I just thought since mom wont be home tonight we could..."
  1132.  
  1133. >It's not that you wouldn't want to, it has been a very long time since you shared a bed with anyone.
  1134. >A very long time.
  1135. >But after tonight, anon should be sure he's not making things harder on himself.
  1136. >You walk over and poke his chest.
  1137.  
  1138. >"Go brush your teeth then, I'll meet you upstairs."
  1139.  
  1140. "Yes ma'am."
  1141.  
  1142. >And like a soldier off to war Anon readies himself to sleep in the bush.
  1143. >No that's terrible, it'll just be cuddling.
  1144. >But, even after the crash you still feel a little hungry.
  1145. >Shower time left you a little unsatisfied.
  1146. >Anon is just in another room, but you can't help yourself.
  1147. >If you can't have him tonight you'll just do it yourself.
  1148.  
  1149. >You lay on the couch and use a blanket to cover yourself, and with a few fingers sliding down the rim of your pants you are given that sweet sense of fulfillment.
  1150. >.Maybe not full enough though.
  1151.  
  1152. ...
  1153.  
  1154. >Anon has to be in his room by now, patiently waiting for you.
  1155. >You look at your fingers, strands of wetness between them, and think of him.
  1156. >Why are you so fucking awful?
  1157. >You reach for your phone and write up a note for yourself.
  1158. >'Talk with the party girl tomorrow, get her to invite him out somewhere.'
  1159. >There, one good deed for a bad one.
  1160. >You'll be out of this yet, hands washed of any guilt before you know it.
  1161. >Speaking of washed hands...
  1162.  
  1163. ---
  1164. >You're excited.
  1165. >But still nervous.
  1166. >A part of you should be feeling guilty that this is only possible because your mother got hurt.
  1167. >Hey, one door opens another closes.
  1168. >Not to say that your mom's door is closing.
  1169. >She'll be fine.
  1170. >This is merely an exercise in freedom, think of all the things you could do if it was just you and Luna?
  1171. >You could stay up all night and watch cartoons and eat ice cream!
  1172.  
  1173. >Now even you aren't that naive, but you could be close to her.
  1174. >Be close to her without feeling bad and good.
  1175. >Sometimes bad or good, but not a confusing mixture of emotions that tug at your every fiber.
  1176. >Don't be a drama queen now, Luna doesn't want to deal with your shit tonight.
  1177. >Just let a good thing be a good thing.
  1178.  
  1179. >You hear steps come up the stairs and leap into bed facing away from the door.
  1180. >You're not really sure what to do, so you end up laying under the covers like a vegetable
  1181. >The door creaks open, every squeak of the hinge stiffens the hair on your neck.
  1182. >You don't look up.
  1183. >You don't move.
  1184. >But you count the steps.
  1185. >One, two, three, four, and you can sense her right behind you.
  1186. >Some ruffling of the blanket and she flops next to you.
  1187. >Luna pulls the blanket over you again, and with arms wrapped around you she nuzzles your neck.
  1188. >A kiss more gentle than a flower petal landing on water, and you are in heaven.
  1189. >For the first time, you really feel like she is returning your love.
  1190. >But not returning like rejecting, but like she is giving you part of her love with it.
  1191.  
  1192. >It is a foreign sensation, a warmth you have not felt before.
  1193. >Such a feeling of security, you couldn't help but drift away in her arms.
  1194.  
  1195. >It's a whisper, but you eek out one last thought to Luna before you fall asleep.
  1196.  
  1197. "I love you."
  1198.  
  1199. >There's a moist feeling against your neck, and you are gone.
  1200. >*BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRING*
  1201. >Your hands snap to your ears.
  1202. >The sound of your alarm wakes you near instantly.
  1203. >Nothing scares you into shape like the sounds of a school bell.
  1204. >Speaking of school where is the vice principal?
  1205. >Seems as though Luna is already up and about, likely making arrangements for Mom.
  1206.  
  1207. >Like a record on repeat you pop in your morning routine.
  1208. >Get dressed, brush your teeth, buttered toast, you've done it a thousand times.
  1209. >But it feels weird without mother around, she usually doesn't play a part, but her lack of presence is eerie.
  1210.  
  1211. >After you finish in the bathroom you head downstairs, Luna can be heard in the kitchen talking on the phone.
  1212. >She's always so good at taking care of not just you but everyone and everything.
  1213. >How come mom is her boss anyway?
  1214.  
  1215. "Good morning Luna."
  1216.  
  1217. >She smiles at you and nods.
  1218.  
  1219. "Right. Sorry. You're busy."
  1220.  
  1221. >You make yourself your breakfast and sit across from Luna at the table.
  1222. >Staring at her while you eat, you're like an entranced puppy staring a juicy bone.
  1223. >Luna might have found it creepy if she wasn't so swamped by her phone call.
  1224.  
  1225. >"I promise I'll have her out of the hospital by tomorrow... Yes... Operating around noon today in fact, I'll make sure she's ready to go tomorrow, Wednesday morning, for our staff meeting."
  1226.  
  1227. "Why don't you just take her place at the meeting Auntie?"
  1228.  
  1229. >She dismisses you with a wave and turns away, finishing her conversation.
  1230.  
  1231. >"Alright, see you soon."
  1232.  
  1233. >Luna exhales long and deep, and returns her attention to you.
  1234.  
  1235. >"Good morning to you too Anonymous."
  1236. >There is some minor chit chat between you two, small talk about school, SHFaG, and the other common interests you share.
  1237. >None of the big questions you want to ask leave your head.
  1238. >Did you stay the whole night with me?
  1239. >Was everything okay?
  1240. >Is mom okay?
  1241.  
  1242. >Luna leads you to her car, leaving a little early so that she can take of last minute arrangements at work.
  1243. >It's not like the whole school falls apart without mom.
  1244. >There's nothing Luna couldn't also do, she could schmooze some parents, board members.
  1245. >Heck she probably already does.
  1246.  
  1247. >"Anonymous, are you okay?"
  1248.  
  1249. >Snapped back to reality once again.
  1250.  
  1251. "I'm yes, I'm... I'm okay."
  1252.  
  1253. >She ruffles your hair, plants a smooch on your forehead.
  1254.  
  1255. "Well lets get to business then."
  1256.  
  1257. >And as such you both hopped into her Civic and took a somewhat relaxing drive to Canterlot High.
  1258. >You try to believe your words, that you really are okay.
  1259. >When you do, everything seems nice.
  1260. >Just Luna and you, happily together with nothing disrupting the mood.
  1261. >But in the back of your head, you know that can't be true.
  1262.  
  1263. >Luna drops you off in the front of the building.
  1264.  
  1265. "Oh anon, I almost forgot. We can't have lunch today. I'll be really busy and I need all my time."
  1266.  
  1267. >"I understand auntie. I'll come see you after school."
  1268.  
  1269. >She smiles at you in confirmation and you both wave goodbye.
  1270. >Luna's car rolls off to park, and you turn towards adolescent hell.
  1271. >You walk through the doors and begin your daily hell.
  1272. >Classes seem to pass by quickly though.
  1273. >You’re just so excited for what waits at the end of the day.
  1274. >All that alone time with Luna, no mom to keep you on your toes.
  1275. >Still, you hope mom is alright.
  1276. >You wanted to feel safer with Luna but not like this.
  1277. >Luna made it sound like mom was doing alright though, something about surgery?
  1278. >That sounds scary actually.
  1279.  
  1280. ---
  1281.  
  1282. >It’s around Lunch.
  1283. >You want to try to be as discrete as you can.
  1284. >A note should be arriving on her desk any moment now.
  1285. >And she’ll be turning up with a puzzled look on face.
  1286. >Maybe it would be a better idea to just tell anon we can’t keep doing this?
  1287. >But then, what if he told someone?
  1288. >You would be sent to prison, and as if it wasn’t enough shame to be a pedo he’s your family too.
  1289. >What if you just let this go on long enough until he lost interest?
  1290. >Anon’s a young kid, this is probably some twisted sort of puppy love.
  1291.  
  1292. >There’s a knock on your door and someone’s caught you day dreaming.
  1293. >It’s Pinkie, time to work an angle.
  1294.  
  1295. >“Hiya Ms. Star! What’s all the hub bub about?”
  1296.  
  1297. >Anonymous was right, she does have a grating pitch to her voice.
  1298.  
  1299. >“I wanted to discuss with you personally a new project we might have at Canterlot.”
  1300.  
  1301. >She seats herself and crosses her leg over the other.
  1302. >With her hands on her knees and her face leaning in to make your convo look shady she asks,
  1303.  
  1304. >“What’s the skiv VP?”
  1305. >“I want you to be a sort of pioneer for this project. You’ll be working undercover you could say.”
  1306.  
  1307. >“You’re not gonna ask me to kill a guy are you?”
  1308.  
  1309. >“What no of course not, this project is about helping some of the less social students… blossom from their shells. After some long discussion with our Principal we decided you would be the best person to test drive this.”
  1310.  
  1311. >“You want me to play buddy buddy to some special kids?”
  1312.  
  1313. >“Special is a little new age for me, but yes. Special.”
  1314.  
  1315. >“Miss don’t get me wrong I love spreading joy but why would I want to do that?”
  1316.  
  1317. >“What do you mean, you want an incentive?”
  1318.  
  1319. >If you give her cash would it be like hiring a prostitute?
  1320.  
  1321. >“What do you think is fair Miss Pie?”
  1322.  
  1323. >“Oh that was a shot in the dark, what kinda crazy project just lets students extort staff? Who did you want me to look after anyway?”
  1324.  
  1325. >“My nephew, you’ve met.”
  1326.  
  1327. >“Oh geeze, you want me to go on a play date with him?”
  1328.  
  1329. >Pinkie seems to be appalled, but she’s not backing down.
  1330. >You had heard rumors from some of the counselors and other staff that Pinkie had some problems with police concerning happy times with students.
  1331. >Guess she is a legitimate prostitute.
  1332. >Now everything in your body is telling you that this can’t be real, you should tell pinkie you were mistaken.
  1333. >But in comparison to your recent terrible decisions this one doesn’t seem so bad.
  1334.  
  1335. >“I’ll pay you.”
  1336. >“Oh my gosh, you are just somethin else aren’t you?”
  1337.  
  1338. >You’ve made a terrible mistake.
  1339.  
  1340. >“50 and I’ll have him take me on a date. He can’t kiss me or anything though.”
  1341.  
  1342. >This has to be a dream.
  1343.  
  1344. >“Deal, lunch will be starting in a few minutes. He usually goes to eat at one of his classrooms. It’s room 204.”
  1345.  
  1346. >You reach into your purse and pull out a couple of twenties, some part of you planned for this.
  1347. >She’s cheaper than you expected too.
  1348. >You hand her the money with only a slight amount of shame and guilt overtaking you.
  1349. >Just bury it Luna, just bury deep down like everything else.
  1350.  
  1351. >Pinkie grabs the cash and stuffs it into her bra.
  1352. >As she up and turns to leave she turns her head to you.
  1353.  
  1354. >“Happy to do business for ya VP.”
  1355.  
  1356. ---
  1357.  
  1358. >Lunch is your second favorite time of the day.
  1359. >First being when it’s over, but at least at lunch you don’t have to be around people.
  1360. >Not in the safety of this empty classroom.
  1361. >The classroom door swings open and Pinkie Pie creeps in like some sort of cartoon Ninja.
  1362. >Well that is another safe place destroyed.
  1363.  
  1364. >“Oh shoot nonny, what are you doing in here?”
  1365. "Eating lunch."
  1366.  
  1367. >"Why are you all alone?"
  1368.  
  1369. >Way to go right for a low blow.
  1370.  
  1371. "Because I like to be alone."
  1372.  
  1373. >Pinkie trots over to where you're sitting.
  1374. >She doesn't seem to be deterred, but that's normal for Pinkie.
  1375.  
  1376. >"No one really liked to be alone, everyone body needs a somebody."
  1377.  
  1378. "I have a somebody, she's just busy."
  1379.  
  1380. >Pinkie seems to have her interest peeked.
  1381. >Perhaps telling her you have a girlfriend was the wrong move.
  1382. >Especially if she finds out who.
  1383.  
  1384. >"Oh really? Who is she?"
  1385.  
  1386. "None of your beeswax."
  1387.  
  1388. >She sits down next you.
  1389. >If disgust were a radio wave you'd be broadcasting on all FM channels and a few AM radio stations.
  1390.  
  1391. >"I just want to get to know you better anon. You really hurt me when you didn't want to my whole party thing."
  1392.  
  1393. "An apology?"
  1394.  
  1395. >"Hold on, maybe if I get to know you better,"
  1396.  
  1397. >Her hand lands on your knee.
  1398.  
  1399. >"I could do something that you'd like more."
  1400.  
  1401. >You hate yourself.
  1402. >It can't be helped though, her gentle touch is very inviting.
  1403. >The stiffening situation almost grasps your reasoning.
  1404. >Why is she doing this now?"
  1405.  
  1406. "Why are you doing this now?"
  1407.  
  1408. >"Because I want to get to know the betta you."
  1409. >You pull away and turn your back to her.
  1410.  
  1411. "Well I don't want to know the," and in air quotes, "betta you."
  1412.  
  1413. >You hear some mumble from Pinkie.
  1414. >It didn't sound like a friendly mumble either.
  1415.  
  1416. "Why don't you just think about it? You can pick me up at my place at-"
  1417.  
  1418. >"I don't have a car."
  1419.  
  1420. >You sharply turn your head to look at Pinkie.
  1421. >Her eyes grow at what you hope is enough of a hint to leave you alone.
  1422. >But she is not deterred.
  1423. >Perhaps she thinks you're playing hard to get.
  1424. >As if you want that slut to get you.
  1425.  
  1426. >"How about this then."
  1427.  
  1428. >She gently places her hand on the edge of your sleeve, and pulls it back.
  1429. >You're blushing, this can't be happening.
  1430. >Pinkie pulls a pink sharpie, how funny of her, and begins writing on your arm.
  1431.  
  1432. >"I'll give you my number, and you give me a call when you can sort something out okay?"
  1433.  
  1434. >The felt tip is tingly on your bare skin, it sends goosebumps up your arm.
  1435. >It has nothing to do with Pinkie, it just shocked you.
  1436. >She finishes the 10 numbers with a little heart at the end.
  1437.  
  1438. "Y-yeah, maybe."
  1439.  
  1440. >Ha, now she thinks you're going to call her back.
  1441.  
  1442. >"Don't keep me waiting."
  1443.  
  1444. >She says as if she knows what you know.
  1445. >This bimbo has no idea how strong your will is.
  1446. >The amount of girls you've fended off, not one has been able to talk to you.
  1447. >And she won't-
  1448. >Your smug thoughts are interrupted by Pinkie reaching down and giving your family jewels a squeeze.
  1449. >Oh geez, why did you still have an erection.
  1450. >After you yelp in absolutely nothing but surprise Pinkie happily hops out of the room.
  1451. >You're unsure that any of that just happened, but the tightness in your pants does not lie.
  1452. >You would uncomfortably eat the rest of your lunch in silence.
  1453. >After lunch ends it's back to class.
  1454. >Which is just as eventful as it could ever be.
  1455. >You're paired up with some lazy kid in a group project out of necessity.
  1456. >But other than the project your day goes as usual.
  1457. >You're anxious about class ending for once though.
  1458. >Mom is still in the hospital.
  1459. >Although everything she said was pretty hurtful, you'd still like to make sure she's doing okay.
  1460.  
  1461. >At the last bell of the day you make a beeline to Luna's office.
  1462. >You see her packing some papers into her bag on your approach.
  1463. >You come to a halt and open the door as calm and collected as possible.
  1464. >Which is still swinging it open for you.
  1465.  
  1466. "Hi auntie."
  1467.  
  1468. >Luna is used to your entrances but twitches as you almost break her door's hinges.
  1469.  
  1470. >"Hi anon."
  1471.  
  1472. >She returns to stowing away some papers for tomorrow.
  1473. >You want to ask her about mother but you don't want to sound too worried.
  1474. >How do you pop the question?
  1475.  
  1476. >"So your mom isn't doing too bad but I thought we would go see her right after school."
  1477.  
  1478. >Thank goodness Luna always can read your mind.
  1479.  
  1480. "That sounds like a great idea."
  1481.  
  1482. >You wait patiently as Luna attends to some last minute duties.
  1483. >When she is all set together you head back to her car.
  1484.  
  1485. ...
  1486.  
  1487. >You're approaching the front doors of the hospital when Luna stops and grabs you by the shoulders.
  1488.  
  1489. >"Okay anon, your mom doesn't remember any of what she said last night okay. I know you might be angry but we have to be understanding with her right now. She might also be a little sore from her surgery today."
  1490.  
  1491. >Luna breathes in deep as if she was burdening all of her sisters problems as well.
  1492.  
  1493. >"Can you promise me you'll be understanding?"
  1494.  
  1495. "I promise."
  1496.  
  1497. >She smiles and you continue on with Luna.
  1498. >The hospital is full of nice ladies at front desks who are very polite.
  1499. >It doesn't take long before you're allowed to see mom.
  1500. >A particularly friendly nurse with pink hair takes the both of you to her room.
  1501.  
  1502. >"She's a little out of it right now, it's been a couple of hours since her surgery but some of the last bits of her loopiness are wearing off."
  1503.  
  1504. >You both nod and thank her as she lets you in.
  1505.  
  1506. >Celestia is a mess.
  1507. >She has a few stitches on her forehead. Some bandages on her left cheek too.
  1508. >But the big elephant is her left leg, it's completely covered by a cast.
  1509.  
  1510. >"Hello sister."
  1511.  
  1512. >Celestia rolls her neck and gives Luna her gaze and a lopsided smile.
  1513.  
  1514. >"How are you feeling."
  1515.  
  1516. >"Numb."
  1517.  
  1518. >She says with an exaggerated head nod.
  1519. >Luna approaches the bed and strokes her sisters hair.
  1520. >You could use some hair stroking right about now.
  1521.  
  1522. >"So you think you will be ready by tonight to leave?"
  1523.  
  1524. >"Of course."
  1525.  
  1526. >"Great because some of the staff have started asking questions and-"
  1527.  
  1528. >"I'm not going back to work."
  1529.  
  1530. >Luna's hair stands on end, and their is an almost audible grinding from her teeth.
  1531. >She stands back and looks over mom again.
  1532.  
  1533. >"Why not? Plenty of kids come to our school with more than just a broken leg after their hoity toity day of skiing."
  1534.  
  1535. >"I've had a change of heart after my accident."
  1536.  
  1537. >"On what?"
  1538.  
  1539. >"On how I spend my time, and who I give my time to. Don't you think it's wrong that I drop my own child on my sister rather than spend time with him myself?"
  1540.  
  1541. >Oh, they're fighting over you now.
  1542. >This can't be good.
  1543. >"Anon please come here."
  1544.  
  1545. >Sheepishly you step over to join your family
  1546.  
  1547. "Yes mom?"
  1548.  
  1549. >"Anonymous I spend so little time with you and I treat you terrible when I do," she's starting to tear up, "I could have ended up much worse after what I did last night. I want to spend every moment I can with you."
  1550.  
  1551. >Luna chimes in, sounding less upset and more annoyed.
  1552.  
  1553. >"What of your responsibilities? You can not just abandon the staff or the the department. Or me."
  1554.  
  1555. >"The whole district wont fall apart without me, much less one school. I can take a sick leave, they'll be understanding after my accident. Those uptight bastards will just have to like it."
  1556.  
  1557. >Luna throws up her arms in with a disgusted sigh and storms out of the room.
  1558. >Luna's not in the wrong, but mom isn't either.
  1559. >Maybe you should go check on Luna.
  1560.  
  1561. >"Anonymous, are you alright?"
  1562.  
  1563. >You shake your head and start crying too, it's only because mom is teary eyed though.
  1564.  
  1565. "I don't know, there's so much I can't tell you and then what this all is."
  1566.  
  1567. >And for what feels like the first time in a very, very long time your mother does something you thought she was incapable of.
  1568. >She hugs you.
  1569. >She caresses your back.
  1570. >She strokes your hair.
  1571. >She coos to you, and it feels right.
  1572. >You can't hold back your tears.
  1573.  
  1574. >"Don't worry, I've been a terrible mother and forced your aunt to take my place for a long time. If there's anything you can't tell me right now I understand. I'd like to be able to do what Luna did for you though."
  1575.  
  1576. "I don't think that's a great idea."
  1577.  
  1578. >You pull away from Celestia.
  1579.  
  1580. >"What's the matter?"
  1581.  
  1582. "I need to go check on Luna mom..."
  1583.  
  1584. >"Okay, I understand. I love you Anon."
  1585.  
  1586. >You almost don't hear her as you retreat from the room so quickly.
  1587. >Your heart is pounding as you look for Luna.
  1588. >Instead however as you close the door behind you, you almost smack into Dean Cadence.
  1589.  
  1590. >"Hi anon."
  1591. "Here to see mom?"
  1592.  
  1593. >"Yes, it's been a while since I talked with Celestia. She's always so busy but I came as soon as I could when I heard."
  1594.  
  1595. "Well she's doing alright. I think her leg is broken."
  1596.  
  1597. >With a smile warm enough to melt the ice caps Cadence asks you,
  1598.  
  1599. >"But are you alright, anon? I wouldn't assume you've gone unaffected."
  1600.  
  1601. >You decide to sit down, this wasn't going to be a yes or no kind of answer.
  1602. >Cadence shrugs and steps away from Celestia's door to join you.
  1603.  
  1604. "There's been a lot of weird things happening all at once. Especially with my mom and aunt."
  1605.  
  1606. >"Luna? Is she still living with you?"
  1607.  
  1608. "More or less, she spends a lot of time with me since mom is as you know..."
  1609.  
  1610. >"Busy?"
  1611.  
  1612. "Yeah."
  1613.  
  1614. >You begin to choke up a little bit.
  1615. >Cadence feels like Luna, they have a way of making people open up.
  1616. >Well, maybe Luna just for you but Cadence is really good at it with everyone.
  1617. >Still, Luna would be upset with you for talking about this.
  1618.  
  1619. >"Did you ever feel... feelings for my mom?"
  1620.  
  1621. >"I love your mother, she's been like a... an aunt."
  1622.  
  1623. "I don't mean those kinds of feelings."
  1624. >Cadence looks dumbfounded by your statement.
  1625. >Her face is blank, but it only takes a few seconds for what you meant to sink in.
  1626. >Her eyes widen for a split moment.
  1627. >Though Cadence is too good at playing the most understanding person alive.
  1628.  
  1629. >"Well anon, I don't feel that away about your mother. Do you?
  1630.  
  1631. "It's not my mom. It might be someone else."
  1632.  
  1633. >"Then if you don't, I think everything is fine. But if you do, you have no need to worry. The most important advice I can give you is to be honest with how you feel with who ever this someone else is. It might be hard, terrifying even but when it comes to love you must be honest."
  1634.  
  1635. >Cadence gives you a hug from the side, she wipes your tears away too.
  1636. >It's comforting.
  1637.  
  1638. >"And I know she hasn't always been the best of mothers but you can trust Celestia with anything. Just-"
  1639.  
  1640. >You give a more relaxed gaze to Cadence.
  1641.  
  1642. "I know, be honest."
  1643.  
  1644. >"Smart kid."
  1645.  
  1646. >Cadence gives you a boop on the nose and stands up.
  1647.  
  1648. >"Speaking of your mom, I would like to see how she's is doing myself."
  1649.  
  1650. >The Dean goes back to Celestia's door, about to enter.
  1651.  
  1652. "Thank you Cadence."
  1653.  
  1654. >"Any time kiddo."
  1655.  
  1656. >And you're all alone again.
  1657. >Suppose you should also get back to what you were doing.
  1658. >Luna is probably angrily pacing in the waiting room.
  1659. >Well she's not pacing, instead angrily sitting like a kid in timeout.
  1660. >She does look very frustrated.
  1661. >You guess now it's your turn to sooth Luna.
  1662. >She cranes her head as your footsteps get closer.
  1663. >She looks upset, not upset to see you, but still upset.
  1664.  
  1665. "Hi auntie."
  1666.  
  1667. >"Hi Anon."
  1668.  
  1669. >You awkwardly sit down next to her.
  1670. >What would Luna do?
  1671.  
  1672. "Kiss me."
  1673.  
  1674. >"We can't do those kinds of things in public."
  1675.  
  1676. >You decide to survey the waiting room populace.
  1677. >Besides a few staff there is only screwy looking woman with messy grey hair.
  1678.  
  1679. "No one would notice, I promise it'll make you feel better."
  1680.  
  1681. >Luna lets out an exhausted sigh.
  1682. >Mom's extra workload is already weighing down on her.
  1683. >And if mom's gonna be out for a while, it'll get worse.
  1684.  
  1685. >"Alright."
  1686.  
  1687. >You have to lift yourself on your chair a few inches.
  1688. >Luna's height is always humbling.
  1689.  
  1690. ---
  1691.  
  1692. >His lips are a little chapped.
  1693. >But they're soft, Anon isn't really a rough kind of kid.
  1694. >Everything about him is kinda soft.
  1695. >Hmm.
  1696. >And they're a little moist.
  1697. >You draw away from Anon's mouth.
  1698. >You'd hate to admit it but the little gesture does make you feel better.
  1699. >It's a good feeling to know someone still gives a rat's ass about how you feel.
  1700. >"I know Celestia's intentions mean well but this is gonna be tougher now."
  1701.  
  1702. "We'll be okay, we always are."
  1703.  
  1704. >"You're probably right, but the staff aren't gonna be happy with this. Maybe I can spin it somehow."
  1705.  
  1706. "Don't think about work for now. Mom will be back before you know it."
  1707.  
  1708. >With a little scoff,
  1709. >"Your optimism is usually infectious. But It's gonna keep nagging at me for today at least."
  1710.  
  1711. >Anon fidgets his feet, he isn't sure how to fix this.
  1712. >But it's not something that can be fixed or really needs fixing you suppose.
  1713.  
  1714. >"Why don't we go apologize to your mom, well I'll apologize and you'll be there for moral support."
  1715.  
  1716. "Sounds like a-"
  1717.  
  1718. >"Great idea?"
  1719.  
  1720. >He nudges your shoulder, you took the words right out of his mouth.
  1721. >With some frustrations buried you head back up to your sister's room.
  1722. >Together as a family, a rare experience for you all.
  1723. >Celestia only needed an hour or two before she was chipper to head out.
  1724. >The three of you spent the hours with each other.
  1725. >But something about Celestia felt... off.
  1726. >You all make it home during the late hours.
  1727. >Sister seems to be still different but not in the way you would expect.
  1728. >Though she is being very attentive to Anon.
  1729. >You wouldn't want to sound jealous, but hopefully Sister will be busy resting most of her time.
  1730.  
  1731. ---
  1732.  
  1733. >Mom went to bed a little early.
  1734. >Normally she is up till 1 or 2 in the morning.
  1735. >She's a real workhorse.
  1736. >But this could be a moment for that extra alone time you were hoping for.
  1737. >You decide to change into something more comfortable first.
  1738. >Your undies and the most form fitting t shirt you have, the perfect combination of comfy and attractive.
  1739. >Or at least that's what online forums would lead you to believe.
  1740.  
  1741. >Luna is downstairs, mixing herself a drink.
  1742. >Seems ironic given what just happened.
  1743. >But you can't judge, she probably knows what she's doing.
  1744.  
  1745. "Well how are you doing there sexy lady?"
  1746.  
  1747. >There is a giggle.
  1748. >Not much unlike the ones you hear in school.
  1749. >But Luna's isn't too mocking.
  1750. >And it's good to laugh at yourself.
  1751.  
  1752. >"Good good... and how are you doing stud?"
  1753.  
  1754. >You give a flex similar to a gachimuchi video.
  1755. >And Luna gives a laugh.
  1756.  
  1757. "Would you like to sit around, cuddle, and watch worthless TV for a while?"
  1758.  
  1759. >Luna chugs her drink.
  1760.  
  1761. >"But of course."
  1762. >You fall onto the couch and spread your arms for Luna to come.
  1763. >You're feeling better about this whole situation.
  1764. >Tonight you get to be big spoon.
  1765. >Luna lays down with you on the couch and pecks your nose.
  1766. >The scent of alcohol is strong on her breath.
  1767. >You wonder how much she put in her glass.
  1768.  
  1769. >Luna grabs the remote and turns on the TV.
  1770. >Together you watch another episode of Small Horse Friends are Good.
  1771. >It's about the worst character on the show though, the dumb sidekick is a greedy shit.
  1772. >The episode reminded you though of another thing grinding your gears.
  1773.  
  1774. >"Hey Luna, can I complain about something?"
  1775.  
  1776. >Luna murmurs in acknowledgement and nods.
  1777.  
  1778. >"So there's this girl at my school."
  1779.  
  1780. >You feel a shiver through Luna's body.
  1781. >Good, she hates the idea too.
  1782.  
  1783. >"You know her, Ponkie Pine or something like that. I was just minding my own business eating alone in a classroom-
  1784.  
  1785. >"You were eating alone again?
  1786.  
  1787. >"Only because I couldn't eat with you, but she came into the classroom and started assaulting me!"
  1788.  
  1789. >Luna shuffles around in your hold and faces you.
  1790. >"She hurt you?"
  1791.  
  1792. >"Well no, but she kept getting really close and tried to get me to talk to her. I think she wants me to take her out.
  1793.  
  1794. >"What made you think that?"
  1795.  
  1796. >"She grabbed my family jewels and wrote her number on my arm."
  1797.  
  1798. >"Sounds like a very forward girl to me."
  1799.  
  1800. >"I'm serious auntie. I don't like that whore laying a finger on me."
  1801.  
  1802. ...
  1803.  
  1804. >That's a little on the nose.
  1805. >Anon's not wrong though, you should maybe have picked a higher class girl.
  1806. >But maybe strong forwardness is what he needs.
  1807.  
  1808. >"Well maybe she's just felt nervous about liking you and now she doesn't anymore. So she just does her whole strong woman thing."
  1809.  
  1810. >"I won't have anything to do with her."
  1811.  
  1812. >"I think you should give her a chance."
  1813.  
  1814. >Your nephew looks hurt.
  1815. >"What about us?"
  1816.  
  1817. >"You know we can't do us forever."
  1818.  
  1819. >"But why not?"
  1820.  
  1821. >"You also know why not, don't put me in this position."
  1822.  
  1823. >"Auntie are you saying you don't love me?"
  1824.  
  1825. >"Damn it you know I love you but this is not a permanent solution."
  1826.  
  1827. >"We could-"
  1828.  
  1829. >"Maybe you'll like it."
  1830.  
  1831. >"But-"
  1832.  
  1833. >"Just go on the fucking date with the floozy."
  1834.  
  1835. >Anon holds back a tear in his eye.
  1836. >You can't remember swearing at him before.
  1837. >Things are starting to get out of hand, you don't have time to hold his hand through this.
  1838. >Not with your sister staying at home now.
  1839. >Perhaps you are being mean, too mean.
  1840. >With a deep breath and a sigh,
  1841.  
  1842. >"Please, if you go on this date I'll leave it alone after that. But I don't want either of us getting in trouble okay? If things don't go well after your mom gets back to work we can try us again."
  1843.  
  1844. >He sniffles.
  1845.  
  1846. >"Okay. I-I'll call whatsherface in the morning."
  1847.  
  1848. >You sigh.
  1849. >You don't want to hurt him.
  1850. >You give him a kiss and he almost reels back.
  1851. > he still loves you.
  1852. >He still wants it.
  1853. >The television hums as the only sound source until anon falls asleep.
  1854. >You carry him to his room.
  1855. >And you go back downstairs to make another drink.
  1856. >The next morning is somewhat quiet.
  1857. >Everyone is going through the motions, there's a tension that everyone can feel.
  1858. >You take anon to school after pleading once more to your sister about coming back to work sooner.
  1859. >She refuses though, acting like she had some sort of epiphany.
  1860. >She'll have to come around eventually though.
  1861. >You drive anon to school and get ready for the work load.
  1862.  
  1863. ...
  1864.  
  1865. >The grass doesn't seem as green and the rest of the color wheel is similar.
  1866. >After Luna snapping at you things feel worse, everything is irritating.
  1867. >She said she'll you could try things again after you go on a date, so you will go on a date.
  1868. >Anything to fix this.
  1869. >You think about having to talk to Ponka all day.
  1870. >You have an idea of where she sets up during free time at school and avoid those spots.
  1871. >Although you wouldn't be surprised if she ditched school often.
  1872. >She's a bit of a bad cookie, to put it gently.
  1873. >Why was she interested in you anyway?
  1874.  
  1875. >You ponder all these things until you get home, Luna was of course nice enough to drive you.
  1876. >At home you peek at your arm.
  1877. >Her digits are still chicken scratched on your arm, legible enough to read.
  1878. >You pull out your phone and make the call.
  1879. >If it'll make Luna Happy.
  1880.  
  1881. >A few days go by, everything is standard as it was before. Although things are a little more quiet.
  1882. >Your mom does make the effort to spend time with you though.
  1883. >She even watches Small Horse Friends are Good with you.
  1884. >Granted, she obviously didn't like it, but she doesn't seem so disapproving of your lifestyle anymore.
  1885. >But you can't watch a cartoon for little girls today.
  1886. >You have to be a man today and go on a date with a scary woman.
  1887. >The two of you decided to meet at a kind of discreet location, some small coffee shop.
  1888. >The kind you see in movies about trendy 20 something year olds with love problems.
  1889.  
  1890. >Pinkie sends you a text message asking "we're still on tonight?"
  1891. >You take a deep breath and reply yes.
  1892. >You have to go meet in her 20 minutes.
  1893. >After telling your mother we're you're going you open the garage, clamber onto your bike, and set off.
  1894. >At least mom seemed happy you were getting out.
  1895. >The coffee shop was farther than you thought, you actually end up late about 10 minutes.
  1896. >That's called being fashionably late though, so you're all good.
  1897. >Stashing your bike on outside rack you take a step in.
  1898. >"The Back Stable Stallion."
  1899. >For an indie coffee shop it has a gayer name than you expected.
  1900. >It's just as you would expect.
  1901. >It is almost as if the owner got all their decorating tips from Mare Landis movies.
  1902. >Thankfully the cafe is pretty quiet.
  1903. >No one will see you out with Pinkie so that's good.
  1904. >You spot her sitting in a corner booth.
  1905. >Passing the assortment of symbolic vagina art from local artists, you approach the girl.
  1906.  
  1907. "Hi Pinkie."
  1908.  
  1909. >She stops fiddling with her phone, but only barely glances in your direction.
  1910.  
  1911. >"Hey Stud."
  1912.  
  1913. >Pinkie pats on the seat next to her for you.
  1914. >And you awkwardly shuffle down next to her.
  1915.  
  1916. >"So what made you change your mind about taking me up on my offer?"
  1917.  
  1918. "Someone gave me advice that it might be a good idea. Might be."
  1919.  
  1920. >You can't stress that enough.
  1921. >Ideally things on this date will go bad so Luna can understand she's the only woman for you.
  1922.  
  1923. >"You don't seem like you want to do this."
  1924.  
  1925. "I don't."
  1926.  
  1927. >"Don't sell me short, I'm sure we can find something about me you like."
  1928.  
  1929. >Pinkie traces her finger over your thigh, dangerously close.
  1930. >You stifle a yelp and scooch over.
  1931. >You can feel a nervous sweat coming over you.
  1932. >But you fight it, a panic attack right now would be traumatic.
  1933. >Pinkie huffs and puffs, annoyed probably you don't like her.
  1934.  
  1935. >"So have you ever been here bef-"
  1936.  
  1937. "No."
  1938.  
  1939. >"Well... I've come here a lot. But never with someone like you, isn't that interesting?"
  1940.  
  1941. "Sure is."
  1942.  
  1943. >Pinkie is tapping her index finger on the table, and closes the gap between you and her.
  1944. >You can feel her breath on your neck, a right reserved for your aunt.
  1945.  
  1946. >"So what are you in the mood for?"
  1947.  
  1948. "What d-do you mean?"
  1949.  
  1950. >"The menu ya silly willy."
  1951. >You nervously grab the small pamphlet menu.
  1952. >Damn place couldn't even spring for lamented ones, it feels like recycled paper.
  1953. >They probably have a dumb sign about how green they are at the front desk.
  1954. >You pen over the paper, searching for the most unflattering food you could eat in front of a girl.
  1955. >Damn, they only have baked goods, and cheese sandwiches.
  1956.  
  1957. >That'll look bad. It's perfect, there's no way Pinkie could enjoy you with a Cheese Sandwich.
  1958.  
  1959. "I'll just go and uh, order something to eat."
  1960.  
  1961. >"Get me a coffee would ya? I take it black."
  1962.  
  1963. "That's an understatement."
  1964.  
  1965. >"Whadya say?"
  1966.  
  1967. >In response, you expertly tighten your shoulders and sink into your body.
  1968. >Not to look unattractive.
  1969. >But because you're too socially retarded to respond to her hearing you.
  1970. >You barely look up at the cashier recovering from your awkwardness.
  1971. >At least she's not cute, she has dreads with a yellow bandanna and smells like pot.
  1972. >The dumpy girl hands you a number and you take it back to your table.
  1973.  
  1974. >"You forgot my coffee."
  1975.  
  1976. >Pinkie slaps your ass and sends you off again.
  1977. >She is still at it.
  1978. >When you return with her coffee this time, narrowly avoiding talking to the cashier again, your date has stored her phone completely. No table, she's all in.
  1979. >You sit down next to her and hand her the cup.
  1980.  
  1981. >"Thanks cutie."
  1982.  
  1983. >She makes another pass at your crotch.
  1984. >Might as well not fight it at this point.
  1985. >She's not going to stop, and you don't want to make a scene.
  1986. >Doesn't stop you from looking down and blushing.
  1987. >You're still extremely uncomfortable, but your little anon is betraying you.
  1988.  
  1989. ---
  1990.  
  1991. >This is so weird.
  1992. >You're very friendly with everyone you know.
  1993. >Boy do you just love friends.
  1994. >But anon was one friend who you couldn't get.
  1995. >But now he's so submissive to your advances.
  1996. >There's something about this you find so thrilling.
  1997. >Getting better antiquated with someone, but he definitely doesn't want to do this.
  1998. >At least that's what he thinks.
  1999. >He just doesn't know how much he wants you, but something deep down keeps telling him otherwise.
  2000. >Why else would he be here still? No one's twisting his arm.
  2001.  
  2002. >You just love getting to know people.
  2003.  
  2004. ---
  2005.  
  2006. >How fucking long can it take to make a grilled cheese sandwich.
  2007. >After a few more moments of anxiety, your savior arrives.
  2008. >The coffee wench gives you both a look over.
  2009.  
  2010. >"Use protection kids."
  2011.  
  2012. >With a chuckle she leaves you alone.
  2013. >Without another word you sink your teeth into that sandwich.
  2014. >It burns.
  2015. >It hurts.
  2016. >But with cheese spilling out every where on your face you must look ridiculous.
  2017. >Perfect.
  2018. >The heat becomes unbearable and you pull the sandwich from your face.
  2019. >Sticky strands make a bridge between your lips and the cheddar.
  2020. >Sometimes being socially retarded is okay.
  2021.  
  2022. ---
  2023.  
  2024. >This is so cute.
  2025. >He's like a little kid trying to not look embarrassed.
  2026. >Like any reasonable person in this situation you grab a napkin and wipe his face.
  2027.  
  2028. >"You got a little something."
  2029.  
  2030. >You can't tell if his face is or hot of if he is blushing.
  2031. >It's cute either way, kind of motherly of you though.
  2032. >But plenty of your friends call their boyfriends Daddy.
  2033. >How would this be any different?
  2034. ---
  2035.  
  2036. >"T-thanks."
  2037.  
  2038. "You too."
  2039.  
  2040. >The taste of vomit suddenly swells up in your mouth.
  2041. >She's definitely mocking you now.
  2042. >Does she know?
  2043. >Is that why she is being so doting?
  2044. >You run to the bathroom trying to cover your mouth and your erection.
  2045. >Why does this thing never want what's appropriate?
  2046.  
  2047. >You make it to the bathroom with your dignity in shambles.
  2048. >Thankfully you didn't puke, but the taste lingers in your mouth.
  2049. >A few dry heaves here and there and you back to stable.
  2050. >You take a look at yourself in the mirror.
  2051. >Your eyes are red and your face is flushed.
  2052. >You turn the faucet on and begin splashing some into your face.
  2053. >A little to cool off, a little to re assess your standing in life.
  2054. >When there's a creak behind you.
  2055. >The door opens.
  2056.  
  2057. >"Doing alright there clumsy klutz?"
  2058.  
  2059. >Oh god no.
  2060. >It's her.
  2061. >She followed you to a safe place.
  2062.  
  2063. "I'm f-f-fine."
  2064.  
  2065. >You haven't stuttered this hard since middle school locker rooms.
  2066.  
  2067. >"I've never met anyone so stressed as you, I know just what you need!"
  2068. >Pinkie prances over to you as if this is all a joke.
  2069. >Yeah, just a big joke.
  2070.  
  2071. >"Whip your cock out."
  2072.  
  2073. >You don't respond.
  2074. >It's a pretty good joke.
  2075. >You're not sure when the punchline is coming though.
  2076. >You're not sure whether you'll ever reach the punchline.
  2077. >This isn't a funny joke.
  2078.  
  2079. >Pinkie undoes your zipper and you instinctively push her away.
  2080.  
  2081. >"What are ya faggot?"
  2082.  
  2083. >Again, you don't say anything.
  2084. >You back away from her into a nearby stall.
  2085. >Pinkie is shorter than you but when your curled back into the stall she looks like a giant looming over.
  2086.  
  2087. >"Just relax and it'll be fine, I promise you'll have a good time."
  2088.  
  2089. >You slip and fall onto the seat of the toilet.
  2090. >She reaches down again to give you a good squeeze.
  2091. >But you're more flaccid than a dead man.
  2092. >Pinkie does not look happy.
  2093. >She looks angry.
  2094.  
  2095. >"What the hell is wrong with you?"
  2096.  
  2097. >You try to speak this time but no words come out, just inaudible mumbling.
  2098. >She slaps you.
  2099.  
  2100. >"Do you like it when I hit you?"
  2101.  
  2102. >You shake your head violently.
  2103.  
  2104. >"Then answer me."
  2105.  
  2106. >She slaps you again but this time with a smirk.
  2107. >You're not going to say anything.
  2108. >And she knows as much.
  2109. >A flash of her hand and you can feel her again on your boyhood.
  2110. >Pinkie has freed it from your loins and is aggressively jerking you off.
  2111. >But it is not working.
  2112. >With every stroke she becomes more and more upset.
  2113. >And from upset, to angry, from angry to violet.
  2114. >Your face is struck again.
  2115. >There are tears streaming down your face and you let out a whimper.
  2116. >But Pinkie cuts it off and covers your mouth.
  2117.  
  2118. >"Just be quiet and get hard already. You're getting a free treatment here. Stop being so fucking difficult."
  2119.  
  2120. >Now she clambers on top of your lap, her skirt parting over you.
  2121. >You're still terrified.
  2122. >You can taste a little blood in your mouth.
  2123. >She flashes up her skirt at you, she's forgone the need for panties.
  2124.  
  2125. >"Come on, PLEASE."
  2126.  
  2127. >Your privates are roughly scrambled around by Pinkie.
  2128. >It is a complete failure on her part to mount you.
  2129. >She stops trying and slumps in your lap.
  2130.  
  2131. >"What is wrong with you? You were just dandy earlier."
  2132.  
  2133. >After a few moments you swallow all your whimpers and eek out an answer.
  2134. >Barely.
  2135.  
  2136. "You're a mean, dirty, whore."
  2137.  
  2138. >As if you could feel a shock run down through Pinkie into you she's shocked.
  2139. >Her hands sprawl across the stall to help herself up.
  2140. >Her eyes look red now.
  2141.  
  2142. >"I-I mean-"
  2143.  
  2144. >A sucker punch catches you off guard.
  2145. >You're slammed into the side wall, your skull makes a deafening bang twice.
  2146. >You're crying as blood oozes from your nose.
  2147.  
  2148. >"Fucking faggot."
  2149.  
  2150. >Someone opens the bathroom door.
  2151. >Pinkie jumps in freight and swiftly leaves you.
  2152.  
  2153. >"Hey!"
  2154.  
  2155. >The clacking of her heals against linoleum echos through your head as she barges through the door.
  2156. >Still crying on the floor, your head feels like it's still being rhythmically hit every second.
  2157. >You try to look up but it hurts too much, but you could at least make out the legs of the intruder.
  2158. >They're hairy, slender legs wearing flip flops.
  2159. >It's the cashier again.
  2160.  
  2161. >"Hey kid, you're gonna be okay."
  2162.  
  2163. >Her words aren't very reassuring.
  2164. >But nothing feels okay with your head right now.
  2165. >You feel incredibly dizzy and almost fall again to the floor as she lifts you up.
  2166.  
  2167. >"Here, let's clear this gunk up."
  2168.  
  2169. >She turns you to the mirror for the sink
  2170. >You get a good look at your face, Pinkie did quite a number on you.
  2171. >Your face swelled up nicely, and your nose looks crooked as blood continues to flow down your face.
  2172. >The water runs and the cashier starts dabbing your face with a wad of wet paper towels.
  2173.  
  2174. >Words turn to bubbles of saliva and blood as you try to talk.
  2175. >It's mostly incoherent between your tears, spit, and running nose, but you try to give some motions
  2176.  
  2177. >"You have a bike?"
  2178.  
  2179. >You nod.
  2180.  
  2181. >"I couldn't let you leave this place in such a hurt condition. Let me send some good vibes your way instead of you trudging on like this."
  2182.  
  2183. >You're visibly confused.
  2184.  
  2185. >"I have a car, I can drive you home kid."
  2186.  
  2187. >That makes more sense.
  2188. >She is right, but it's not because you're a sissy who can't handle a punch.
  2189. >But you are feeling very tired, and light headed, and are in a lot of pain.
  2190. >She finishes washing your face, then helps you out of the bathroom.
  2191.  
  2192. >"Tree if you wanted to use the bathroom why didn't you use the la-"
  2193.  
  2194. >Another person, it's Flash Fucking Sentry.
  2195. >Of course it had to be some jock jack ass who teased you.
  2196. >He is also visibly confused.
  2197.  
  2198. >"Did you catch that girl with the pink hair running through here?"
  2199. >"No, did she do this?"
  2200.  
  2201. >"Yeah I think so. That girl was always giving me funk when she came in with her dates. I hate to be negative but we gotta ban her.'
  2202.  
  2203. >"Sure sure. And what uh, about the poor guy on your arm?"
  2204.  
  2205. >She jiggles you awake, didn't notice you were feeling drowsy.
  2206.  
  2207. >"Hey, you got someone we can call?"
  2208.  
  2209. >There's no way mom can come and get you, she's still stricken from cars in her cast.
  2210. >Luna is probably hands full attending to mom, she's been keeping her busy.
  2211. >You don't really know anyone else, not anyone who could come and pick you up.
  2212. >You shake your head after thinking it over.
  2213.  
  2214. >"Oh man that's rough," she looks back towards her co worker, "Do me a solid and cover for a bit so I can get this kid home safe?"
  2215.  
  2216. >He shrugs and sighs.
  2217.  
  2218. >"It's the right thing to do I guess. Feel better guy."
  2219. >He snaps his fingers and grabs a card from behind the counter.
  2220.  
  2221. >"Here, take this. It's a we're sorry you got injured free smoothie card."
  2222.  
  2223. >He hands you a flimsy paper card.
  2224. >The texture tells you it's shitty recycled paper, of course it is.
  2225. >You probably wont come back to use this.
  2226.  
  2227. "Thenksh."
  2228.  
  2229. >He smiles and pats you on the shoulder.
  2230. >You wince a little on reaction.
  2231. >And he cringes in return.
  2232. >Tree starts walking you to the parking lot.
  2233. >She drives a hybrid, you're not surprised.
  2234. >But you are grateful that someone is doing something nice for you. It's rare you're not on the other end.
  2235. >As evident by your date, what an unappreciative girl. Couldn't be happy with copping a feel.
  2236. >She had to try and assault you instead.
  2237.  
  2238. >Tree helps you into the car before taking the driver seat.
  2239. >Her car very softly hums to life.
  2240.  
  2241. >"You feeling alright buddy?"
  2242.  
  2243. "My head hurts."
  2244.  
  2245. >"You might have a concussion. You look like you took a nasty hit."
  2246.  
  2247. >No shit.
  2248.  
  2249. "Uh huh."
  2250.  
  2251. >"So where do you live, I know it's tough to think right now but if you want I can play some audio therapy to help you focus."
  2252. >Tree Hugger without your response pops in a blank CD with Sharpie marks.
  2253. >The sounds of crinkling rubber, scrapes on a rough surface, and random whispers flood the car.
  2254.  
  2255. "Uhm, actually..."
  2256.  
  2257. >"Oh sorry, well it's all I really have."
  2258.  
  2259. >She ejects the CD and fumbles around some more.
  2260.  
  2261. >"Maybe you'd like something more traditional?"
  2262.  
  2263. >Rubber and plastic is replaced with waves and crashing.
  2264. >It does help you think more clearly.
  2265. >You can now fully feel the dizzying pain in your head.
  2266. >The overflowing feeling in your nose as blood seeks to escape it.
  2267.  
  2268. >"So were you gonna give me direction?"
  2269.  
  2270. "Right, uhm. Just drive towards Canterlot High. Thanks miss?"
  2271.  
  2272. >"No need for miss, just call me Tree."
  2273.  
  2274. >Her parents must have been flower children as well.
  2275. >You shouldn't judge her by her name, after all this stranger is giving you a ride home.
  2276. >Why is she doing this.
  2277.  
  2278. "Why are you doing this?"
  2279.  
  2280. >"Driving you home?"
  2281.  
  2282. "Yes, why not just call me a cab or tell me to walk?"
  2283.  
  2284. >She grins.
  2285. >"I do not like to boast, but I do consider myself to be compassionate. It would not be right to let you fend for yourself after you got hurt on my watch."
  2286.  
  2287. "I was in the men's room, how is that your watch?"
  2288.  
  2289. >"All lost souls who enter are under my hospitality. I don't really like coffee to tell you the truth, but the kind of people who come into the shop are definitely the kind of people who need kindness and understanding."
  2290.  
  2291. "Even the girl I was with?"
  2292.  
  2293. >"Well some people are just too mean to accept help, but the poor guys she brought in could use real comfort. Not the kind that she was serving."
  2294.  
  2295. "I think you're right. I didn't want to go out with her either."
  2296.  
  2297. >"So why did you?"
  2298.  
  2299. "Someone set me up with them."
  2300.  
  2301. >"Did they know what kind of girl she was? Why would they do that?"
  2302.  
  2303. "They wanted me, to be out of the house more."
  2304.  
  2305. >Tree sees through your lie.
  2306. >She is tapping on the steering wheel waiting for some honesty.
  2307. >You suppose she deserves that at least.
  2308.  
  2309. "I mean, they wanted me to be out of their hair. She wanted me to leave her alone, she bribed me to go out with Pinkie."
  2310.  
  2311. >"Well kid, this is just my personal opinion but someone who does something like that with someone like her might not have your best interests in mind."
  2312.  
  2313. "What do you mean by that?"
  2314.  
  2315. >"Be careful with what that person wants with you."
  2316.  
  2317. >What does she know?
  2318. >No one knows you better and cares more than Luna.
  2319. >Spending countless nights with you, you were the only two friends each other had really.
  2320. >You purposefully create a stretched silence.
  2321.  
  2322. "Thanks for the advice."
  2323. >Your passive aggressiveness creates a tension without words.
  2324. >Neither of you talk again until you're home.
  2325.  
  2326. "This is my stop."
  2327.  
  2328. >Tree pulls up to your home.
  2329.  
  2330. >"Would you want me to walk you inside?"
  2331.  
  2332. "No, I should be alright.
  2333.  
  2334. >You stumble slightly getting out, smooth.
  2335.  
  2336. "Thanks for the lift Tree."
  2337.  
  2338. >"Anytime kid."
  2339.  
  2340. >You shut the door and she drives off.
  2341. >She was kind of a nice girl, but she's still wrong about Luna.
  2342. >Once again stumbling you walk up your driveway and open the front door.
  2343. >Mom is sitting on the couch watching TV.
  2344. >She turns and her mouth drops.
  2345.  
  2346. >"Anon! Are you okay?"
  2347.  
  2348. "I'm alright."
  2349.  
  2350. >In a haste you've never seen from her she explodes out of her seat, hobbling while balancing with the sofa.
  2351. >She almost trips rushing to you.
  2352. >I love you too mom.
  2353.  
  2354. >"My goodness what happened to you?"
  2355.  
  2356. >She's hugging you, it's a little much.
  2357. >Too much for you.
  2358. >You're crying.
  2359.  
  2360. "I got punched by a girl."
  2361.  
  2362. >"Someone hit you? Who, why?"
  2363.  
  2364. "I got hit by a girl from school, because I didn't want to touch her."
  2365.  
  2366. >"What was her name?"
  2367.  
  2368. >You hug her tighter.
  2369. "Pinkie something."
  2370.  
  2371. >"I know who she is, I swear she'll get what's coming to her. I'll have her expelled for harming another student, I'll call the police for assaulting you. I promise you I wont let her get away with anything."
  2372.  
  2373. >You are puddy in her motherly paws, her showing this kind of affection is something alien to you.
  2374. >It feels right.
  2375.  
  2376. >"Why did you go see that girl?"
  2377.  
  2378. "I don't know."
  2379.  
  2380. >"Please tell me, I know you would never talk to her. You hate her."
  2381.  
  2382. >She does listen.
  2383. >You sniffle and compose yourself.
  2384. >Luna only asked you to not tell about what you two did together, not Pinkie and you.
  2385.  
  2386. "Luna asked me to do it."
  2387.  
  2388. >"What?"
  2389.  
  2390. "She wanted me to get out more."
  2391.  
  2392. ...
  2393.  
  2394. >Luna knows who the hell that girl is.
  2395. >You both used to make fun of her, cracking jokes about her twat being salty instead of sweet.
  2396. >Because she works at a Candy shop.
  2397. >Heh.
  2398. >But Luna has some God damn explaining to do.
  2399. >Later though, as furious as you are with Luna that'll have to wait.
  2400. >Your baby needs you. You've been less than motherly to him.
  2401.  
  2402. ...
  2403.  
  2404. >You should go to the store to buy some Splenda, sister's all out.
  2405. >Instead your pour honey into your tea.
  2406. >Celestia has no taste in tea, it's all commercial store bought Lipton.
  2407. >You take a sip as you back into the swinging kitchen door to come upon anon crying in his mother's arms.
  2408. >You almost choke on your drink as you see them.
  2409.  
  2410. >Please don't have anything to do with the date.
  2411.  
  2412. >"Luna, care to explain yourself?"
  2413.  
  2414. >Recompose yourself damn it.
  2415.  
  2416. >"What's the matter? Is Anon okay?"
  2417.  
  2418. >"Don't give me that, why would you tell him to go on a date with that prostitute Pinkie?"
  2419.  
  2420. >She knows.
  2421. >Anon must have told her.
  2422.  
  2423. >"I thought that he could use someone to help him get out."
  2424.  
  2425. >"Where did this come from? You spent plenty of time with my son and this is the first you've tried getting him to socialize."
  2426.  
  2427. >"Should we really have this conversation in front of him?"
  2428.  
  2429. >"Absolutely. You have no right to tell me how to mother my son."
  2430.  
  2431. >Guffaw.
  2432.  
  2433. >"Well why not? I've spent more time as his mother than you have. I've sacrificed more nights than you have to be a mom while you were sacrificing those nights rubbing noses with rich parents at fundraisers."
  2434.  
  2435. >"I spent all those nights to get US sister where we are. We're both administrators of a high end school and because of that I can support Anon in luxury."
  2436.  
  2437. >"Do you think living comfortably is more important then spending time with him as a mother? I'm closer to him than his own mother because you made the wrong decision."
  2438.  
  2439. ...
  2440.  
  2441. >Mom and Auntie keep going back and forth.
  2442. >Neither of them are entirely wrong or right.
  2443. >You do wish mom spent more time with you, but she hasn't spent it unwisely.
  2444. >There's a lot of kids with single moms in shitty situations, you're doing better then most stable households.
  2445. >You do have it pretty good.
  2446. >And you've always had Luna there for you.
  2447. >Mom needs to know what she means to you.
  2448.  
  2449. >"I love her."
  2450.  
  2451. >They both stop arguing.
  2452.  
  2453. >"What?"
  2454.  
  2455. "Please stop fighting, I- I love Luna."
  2456.  
  2457. >"What do you mean you love Luna?"
  2458.  
  2459. >You fidget around and get up from the floor with your mom.
  2460. >There are knots the size of fists in your stomach.
  2461. >If they were real they'd be too heavy to stand.
  2462.  
  2463. "I... LOVE Luna."
  2464.  
  2465. >Mom turns with fire in her eyes at Luna.
  2466.  
  2467. >"Did you know about this?"
  2468.  
  2469. >You want her to tell the truth.
  2470. >You don't want to feel guilty about this anymore.
  2471. >No more dates, no more hiding away in her office, or at night, or praying mother doesn't see.
  2472. >Luna catches your eyes and you lock gazes for a split second.
  2473. >It's enough.
  2474.  
  2475. >"Yes."
  2476. >Your mother does not have the look of understanding you thought she would have.
  2477. >In fact this is the most terrified and furious you have ever seen her.
  2478.  
  2479. >"How far has this gone on?"
  2480.  
  2481. >You look back at Luna but she's speechless, fidgeting like you would.
  2482.  
  2483. >"Did, did you touch him?"
  2484.  
  2485. >No response.
  2486. >Your mom helps herself up.
  2487.  
  2488. >"Anon, go upstairs."
  2489.  
  2490. >You open your mouth to resist.
  2491. >But it is of no use.
  2492.  
  2493. ...
  2494.  
  2495. >"What is wrong with you? I feel like I am going to vomit."
  2496.  
  2497. >Your sister opens her mouth but you cut her off.
  2498.  
  2499. >"Give me one good reason I shouldn't call the police. One. Good. Reason."
  2500.  
  2501. >Luna is sweating bullets.
  2502. >She wont get away wit-
  2503.  
  2504. >"I'll get you fired and arrested for drunk driving."
  2505.  
  2506. >"You wouldn't dare, you don't have anything concrete to go on."
  2507.  
  2508. >"There's the wrecked car, the body work isn't finished and I could pay the mechanic to unseal his lips."
  2509.  
  2510. >The absolute scum, ready to throw you under a truck when backed into a corner.
  2511. >How could this happen?
  2512.  
  2513. >"I'm not going to jail."
  2514.  
  2515. >"Then you're going to quit your job."
  2516. >"Like hell I will!"
  2517.  
  2518. >"Yes you are. You're gonna transfer from Canterlot. You're gonna get your things, and you're never going to contact me or my son again."
  2519.  
  2520. >You don't hobble, you physically confront Luna even in your cast.
  2521. >There is no pain shooting up your leg.
  2522. >The electric signals being sent to your brain are being intercepted by your pure anger.
  2523.  
  2524. >"I'd rather get fired and live on the streets than see you get near Anon again. Try me."
  2525.  
  2526. >She doesn't look scared, she looks just as angry as you are.
  2527. >But you can feel her back against the wall.
  2528. >She walks past you and starts gathering her possessions.
  2529. >Papers, a few clothes, Luna looks at you with this look of helplessness.
  2530.  
  2531. >You violently empty out a backpack by the front door and toss it at her.
  2532.  
  2533. >"Don't bring it back."
  2534.  
  2535. >Luna doesn't hesitate, she finishes packing and bolts out the door.
  2536. >You watch out the window to make sure she leaves.
  2537. >When her car finally bends around a corner out of sight you're hit with everything that's happening.
  2538. >The pain in your leg is realized and you fall to the ground.
  2539.  
  2540. >"SON OF A BITCH."
  2541.  
  2542. >Tears pour and your nose runs a little.
  2543. >Anon is still upstairs.
  2544. >Your leg feels as though it's on fire.
  2545. >It is almost unbearable.
  2546. >Almost, you crawl over to the couch with your crutch.
  2547. >After taking a minute to let the feeling in your leg subside, you shoulder the crutch.
  2548. >You shuffle to the stairs.
  2549. >It takes a while by yourself to get up to the second floor.
  2550. >Waves of pain flow in and out of your lower half with every other step.
  2551. >But you bare the pain on yourself, for your son's sake.
  2552. >You open his door slowly.
  2553. >You see him curled up like a child on his bed.
  2554. >He really is so young, thanks to you.
  2555. >The covers crumple and the frame squeaks as you lay down on it.
  2556. >And lay down next to him.
  2557. >You hold your son and cry.
  2558.  
  2559. ...
  2560.  
  2561. >Anon has finished all his finals by today.
  2562. >Summer is just around the corner, the year really does fly by.
  2563. >You've been on a tight scheduled between work without a VP and focusing more on your son.
  2564. >The board has let you step down from your position as Principal.
  2565. >You'll take on a less demanding job on the staff, spend more time with Anon.
  2566. >The school might suffer from a less experienced Administrator, but fuck it.
  2567. >Your son needs you.
  2568.  
  2569. >You've got a lot of time to make up for in a short amount of time.
  2570. >Especially after the damage Luna caused.
  2571. >She's still working in education.
  2572. >She's a few towns over now, working in Lunar City High.
  2573. >The thought of that monster being around children makes you sick.
  2574. >But risking your job isn't something you could do to Anon.
  2575.  
  2576. ---
  2577.  
  2578. >Your last final is over and you're feeling pretty confident.
  2579. >Earlier classes were just movies off of Netflix since you couldn't go home.
  2580. >Mom gets on you about showing up to class even if there's nothing to do.
  2581. >She just wants you close by really.
  2582. >And after she'd started being more accepting of you, you kind of wanted to be close by her too.
  2583. >It can't be a one way street though, you've been trying to take some of her "advice" lately.
  2584. >You're spending less time at home locked in your room.
  2585. >Yeah, it's kind of nice to be out and about but most of the time you still wish to just be home watching cartoons.
  2586. >Mom's still watching with you too.
  2587. >You think she's coming around about them, but she might just be doing it for your benefit.
  2588. >A part of you still misses Luna watching with you.
  2589. >Your mother explained it to you and why it was wrong, and dangerous, and harmful.
  2590. >But still.
  2591. >At least you had mom now though.
  2592. >To be there for you while Luna can't.
  2593.  
  2594. >*BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRING*
  2595.  
  2596. >It's time to go find her.
