Chapter #4Plumped by a Pegasus by: Herly It was another day in the Ponyville library. The sun gently rose above the clouds as a certain lavender unicorn pony rose from her bed. Bringing a hoof up to rub some of the sleep from her eyes, she smiled gently, glancing to her side to see the snoozing pegasus she'd been spending so much time with.
"Dash..." She called softly, gently nudging the pony, rustling her mane with her snout. "Rainbow Dash, come on, it's time to get up."
The pegasus simply rolled over with a groan and pulled the blankets closer to herself. The unicorn's face fell as she blew a lock of her purple hair out of her eyes. "Oh, I see." She smirked playfully. "Well, I happen to know a spot on you that is just perfect for... TICKLING!" She shouted, laughing as she reached over and began to dance her hooves across the spot between Dash's wings, making her eyes shoot open as she started to giggle uncontrollably.
"Alright, alright! I'm *hehe* up!" Rainbow Dash snorted as she sat up in bed and smiled at Twilight. Leaning in to rub her cheek against the unicorn's, Rainbow stretched. "Ugh, what's so important you're waking me up on my day off? It's clear skies today, so you know us weather ponies don't have to do anything but burst some clouds, and I can do that in my free time." She said, her tone almost making it sound as though she were bragging.
"We were going to have a picnic today, remember? And if we want everything ready and made by lunch time, we'll have to work most of the morning." She teased, making Rainbow laugh.
"But neither of us can cook, Twi!" She teased, grinning broadly as she hopped out of bed, stretching her back and wings. "Can't we just have Spike make us something?"
Twilight put a hoof to her chin in thought and sighed. "Well... Alright. But we can at least make breakfast. And maybe you can swing by Sweet Apple Acres and get us a few pies, and fritters... Ooh, and maybe some candied apples!" Her eyes shone at the thought and her stomach growled as she looked to Rainbow Dash expectantly, making the pegasus snicker.
"Sheesh, Twilight, I think my eating habits are rubbing off on ya'!. Come on, let's go get some eggs and toast." She said, nodding to the stairway, her trim form and rainbow mane strolling away with pride. Twilight couldn't help but bite her lower lip as she watched her go, making a move to follow her before pausing, catching her reflection in the mirror. Maybe Dash was right. She definitely had been eating a lot more... Walking to the mirror, she tilted her head as she looked herself over, from head to hooves.
From the front, she could see her face had thickened a bit, her neck now puffing outward and making a second chin. Reaching a hoof up to touch it, she sighed. "I guess it's not too bad, right?" She asked her reflection, whose chin bounced and wobbled in response, making her grumble. She blinked, looking down her softer front to notice something... Her belly seemed to be hanging a good deal lower. Turning to the side, she watched it bounce as she turned. It was certainly a lot bigger than it had been before! Hanging heavily between her thicker back legs, it bounced a bit whenever she moved. Pressing a hoof against it, she blushed as she realized how soft it was... "I guess that's why Dash said I made such a nice pillow..." She mused, her eyes turning back to her thicker flank. Taking an experimental step, she watched it jiggle a bit as she did. Had it been doing that with every hoof-fall? "Somepony might need to start watching what they eat..." She mumbled, the flabbier, 100 pound pony continuing to examine herself in the mirror.
"Hey Twi, get down here! Breakfast is ready!" Rainbow Dash called from the kitchen, making the purple unicorn snap out of her ogglings.
"Be right down!" She called as she descended the stairs, some worrying thoughts forming in her head as she did. Did Dash think she was fat? Had her friends noticed? And most importantly... What if Rainbow Dash didn't find her attractive after this?! Her eyes widened and her ears flattened at the thought. A landslide of negative thinking followed that thought as she headed for the kitchen, gulping as she sighted the rainbow tail of her marefriend. Sitting at the table across from her, Twilight looked at her food nervously. It looked like half a loaf of bread and a dozen eggs were scrambled just for this meal! And Dash was eating just as much! 'Ugh, why does she get such a good metabolism?' Twilight thought to herself with a huff before taking a cautious bite, smiling as she started eating quickly now, almost out of habit... Sometimes she and Dash would even have competitions on who could eat the most the fastest. Those were always fun. She blushed at the thought before looking up at the pegasus who was scarfing down some toast. "Hey... Dash?" She began cautiously, a bit unsure as to how to approach this.
Rainbow Dash looked up from her food and tilted her head, a bit of egg speckling her snout as she looked at Twilight Sparkle quizzically. "Yeah, Twi?"
"Do you think I've um..." The unicorn began, tracing a circle on the table with her hoof, gulping as she asked, "Do you think I've been getting fat."
Rainbow Dash blinked, bursting out laughing before saying... indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
