The Promise

Mothball

That night, just before I went in the back room, where Screwy was at, Ginny said, "Harry?"

I refused to look at her; she couldn't understand how I felt, I stopped, took a deep breath, turned to look at her, and said, "Yes, Gin?"

She said, "Are you and her... friends?"

I said, "Yes, we're friends... Don't worry, just friends that all."

She said, "Just making sure..."

When I had made it to the back room, I let out a sigh, put up the spells around the room, I didn't want the humans to wonder about us, and also having an angry witch wasn't a sign that I wanted to face.

After switching back, I pace in front of Screwy; who sat up, looking at me in wonder, after a few minutes of just watching, she finally got out of bed, I felt her soft hooves rub my shoulders, at her touch, I gently made her come around me, haveing her face me, once she was in front of me, I gently ran one hoof through her wavy mane; the other wrapped around her, pulling her closer, Screwy, on the other hoof, twined both of her hooves around my neck, pulling me towards her.

The moment our lips made contact, was also the same moment that we both found ourselves on the bed, I couldn't help but chuckle, and I said as I broke the kiss, "You and your magic..."

She said as she pulled me closer, "Just so you know, Mothy, I've been through a lot today. That colt of mine doesn't even know that your Mother is still, in fact, searching, hunting me down."

I said, "She is?"

She said after a kiss, "Yes, she is."

I decided that the talk was enough for now, as I kissed her neckline, her hooves were either in my mane or around me, as I made my way down her body, she was moaning loudly, but when I had made it to her soft spot, she was soaked, once again, as I gently took her in my mouth, she moaned my name, glad that I was there.

As I worked on her, she was in her happy place, one that only included me; she kept on hissing loudly, once I was done, she pulled me in for a kiss, I only had enough time for me to get inside, once I was inside, she started to bounce, I rolled onto my back, she only went faster, moaning, hissing, and grinding on top, I only watched, her swirls clouded with lust and pleasure, her head thrown back, her mane everywhere on her face, but she didn't care, I could see that some of the scars had faded away, I got up, only to have her pull me in for a kiss; I moved my lips along her neckline, her own also moving along mine, I felt her tightened around me, and as she came, she bit down on my neck.

We both stayed like that for a few moments, catching our breaths, once she had her breath under control, she said, "Your turn..."

I said, "Some pony's ready for another round tonight."

She said, "After today, I could use the extra round."

As we both got started, I realized that more scars were slowly disappearing, right in front of me, I couldn't keep myself under control, once I was inside, she was shouting for not only me but for me to go faster, deeper, and harder into her, all in all, she wanted me to let my wild side out.

We both didn't bother to be quite that night, as I took her rough and hard, she refused to let me have all the fun, after she had two orgasams, both her and I met in a mixture of shouts and screams so loud that the house shook.

I gently lowered her back down onto the bed, she snuggled up to my side, after a few kisses, I wrapped my hoof around her, pulling her closer, she giggled, and said, "Wonder what the others may say about the home shaking..."

I said as I looked into her swirls, "Let them think otherwise. For now, did you know that your swirls are shining more brightly tonight?"

She said, "Is it because of the light, or does it have to do with having you beside me?"

I said, "I vote for the second theory."

As she drifted off to sleep, she said, "I love you, Mothy."

I whispered in her ear, "I, you, Screwy."

That was all, as we both slept in each other's hooves that night.


Screwball

I didn't want to move, I was in my happy place, it was only Mothy and I; the night before was just wonderful, I didn't want it to end, but like all things, there was a knock at our door, neither of us didn't want to move, I felt Mothy give me a kiss on the forehead, and he said, "Good morning, my beloved."

I breathed a sigh, slowly opened my swirls, looked up at him, and said, "Good morning, my prince."

That's when we both heard a second knock at the door, Mothy groaned, I said, "How about you stay in bed, while I go answer it."

He said as his grip tightened around me, "But then I'll be cold without you beside me to keep me warm."

I said as I wiggled out of his grip, "If one of us doesn't get to the door soon, then neither of us aren't going to get out of bed, anytime soon."

As I got out of bed, I turned back to Mothy, who just looked at me, a blush on his cheeks, I giggled at him, after opening the door, my happy mood this morning vanished, there was the human woman, before she said anything, I shut the door on her, turned back to Mothy; who was still in bed, and said, "The human's outside... Mothy, what are you going to say? What if she knows that there's something going on between us? Mothy, you know that we both can't lose each other. I-"

He said as he made his way towards me, "Calm dow, Screwy, just take a deep breath."

I was in tears, I said as he pulled me into his hooves, "I don't want to go back... Please, Mothy, don't make me go back..."

He said as he ran a hoof through my mane, "Don't worry, Screwy, you're not going to go back there. Not again, I promise."

I said, "But what about the humans? What if-"

He stopped me, and said, "Leave the humans to me, Screwy. I'll handle them. Don't worry, everything will be alright. I promise."

I nodded, I was about to move away, when he said, "How about you go back to bed, while I talk with the human outside."

I whispered, "Don't leave me."

He said, "I won't, I promise."

As I went back to bed, he switches back, after getting dressed, he opens the door, and said, "Oh; good morning, Gin."

The human said, "Good morning, Harry dear. Can I ask you something?"

He said, "What?"

The human said, "Did you feel the house shake last night?"

He said, "Nope, why do you say that for?"

The human said, "Because-hold on-are you...?"

That's when I heard her sniff, after a moment, she asked him, "... Have you two been sleeping together?"

My heart sank, this could not be happening; thankfully I heard Zecora say, "Why good morning, young outcast. Is she awake as well?"

Mothy said, "Yes, Zecora, she's awake. In fact, can you please bring us some food? We both would like to stay in here for the day... Plus; it helps her heal if I'm near her too."

The human snapped, "Near her? I'm starting to think that she's up to something here. I bet; she has you all wrapped around her... finger."

Mothy snapped back, "Ok, first of all, it's not called a finger, it's called a hoof! Secondly; she's hurt, so she prefers me to take care of her."

The human snapped, "I'm starting to thnk she wants you to do more than just take care of her."

I crossed my front hooves, as I walked over to the door, Mothy moved out of the way, so did Zecora when she saw me, I glared at the human, who glared back at me, after a long moment, she said, "Did you have a nice night with my husband?"

I said, "Young one; you have got to blind ever since you all got here. For the passed few days, he's been trying to not only take care of your lot, but also take care of me. So why don't you take care of your lot on your own, while he's dealing with me."

Then I turned to Zecora, and said, "Good morning, Zecora."

Zecora said, "You three might want to talk later on. For now; I shall get you both some breakfast. What would you both like?"

Mothy and I looked at each other, after a few moments, he grinned, so did I; we both turned back to Zecora, and we both said together, "Chocolate."

Zecora giggled, and said, "Chocolate it is. After ten years, young outcast, I'm surprised that you still like chocolate. How did you survive in the human world anyway?"

Mothy snorted, and said, "Chocolate during the day, but when it was night time, I had to find some food for myself."

Zecora said, "Anything else, young mare and outcast?"

I said, "Ice cream for me..."

Mothy asked me in a low voice, "Are you alright if I eat a few animals?"

I giggled, nodded, and whispered, "Some Changeling's hungry this morning..."

He giggled, and said as he looked back at Zecora, "A few squrals for me, please."

The human said, "Squrals? Why would you want squrals?"

Zecora said, "Someone's hungry this morning... I'm surprised that you both are pulling through this together. Young man, will that be three or four squrals?"

Mothy said, "Make it five, please. After last night, I'm hungry, I could drink the entire chocolate lake..."

I giggled at that, and I said, "You know, you might want to rethink that last statement, remember who led you to it in the first place?"

He said as he pulled me closer to him, "Yeah, and remember who made me reveal myself in the first place?"

I said as I pulled him back over to the bed, "Well, young outcast, remember when my dad first met you?"

He said as he just let the door slam, both of us forgetting the human outside, "I remember how mad he was that we were alone. Not to mention, how shocked he was when my Mother showed up."

I said, "Change back... I can't stand seeing you look like that human outside."

He chuckles, after he changed back, I pulled him in for a kiss, and said, "I'm glad to have you all to my pony self, you know that?"

His hooves wrap around me, and he said, "I hoped that none of the others don't ask me about last night..."

I giggled, and said, "You, my prince, were not giving me a hard time last night, you know."

He said, "Says the mare who had not only a ride but also came three times last night."

I said, "Why does the human care anyway?"

He sighed, pulled me on his lap, and said, "She doesn't know that we're in my world now. All she cares about is her own family... Which doesn't include me either."

I said, "I was shocked too when my parents' show up, even surprised that my dad didn't attack you."

He said, "Screwy, you know that we, I mean me, Discord, and your Mother, all care for you, and we would want you to be safe and happy, right?"

I said, "I know... But the last time dad had tried to get me away from him... he got threatened by Furball. You see, Furball wants his wife to be quiet, he doesn't like it when other colts, or stallions, to look at his girl... I found out the hard way."

He said, "I'm sure that he now knows better than to come here again. Breakfast was great yesterday. Although, the pony kept on shouting at me, begging me to give you back. Said that he didn't want you near me, that I would eat you instead..."

I said in a low voice, "He called me your food source... That you were afraid that the others would have eaten me first if you didn't get to it fast enough..."

He said, "You know, when we were fillies, at first I wanted to... but when I had looked into your swirls, I just knew that I couldn't eat you... You saved me from killing you, Screwy."

I pulled him in for a kiss, his hooves tighten around me, as we both broke apart, I whispered, "Now it's your turn to save me..."

That's when we both heard a knock at the door, I got up to get it, once the door was opened, Zecora said as she handed me our food, "Here you lovebirds go... You two couldn't keep quiet last night, I assum?"

I blushed, so did Mothy, she only chuckled, and said, "You two are young... Sooner or later, you both might need a house of your own, someday."

I said, "Thank you, Zecora..."

Once the door was closed, we both ate , happy to be with each other.

It's going to be alright, I though, I have Mothy with me...

As we both spent the entire day in our room, we both refused to come out.
