Hello everyone, I am proud to say that Zach in Equestria has reached over 900 views!

Now this may not seem like a big deal to some people but this makes me really happy because that means you guys have been interested enough that around 300-400 people have looked at my story.

Ok now I have said in a previous chapter I need people to vote on my poll for chapter 6 but I think I should say it again here PLEASE take a look and give your opinion because I have quite a bit less than I would like.

You can find my poll from my profile page and you should see a text link that says something like vote now! I really hope I am not being annoying repeating this but I would like your opinions for the next chapter.

Voting will close 10 days after this chapter releases whenever that may be. This chapter will contain mild "adult" themes, no clop, but you have been warned.

I hope all of you have a great day and are able to find something to take joy from.

Chapter 5

I awoke to the sun beaming into my eyes. They hurt slightly from the cider last night. I noticed that it seemed to be strangely quiet today; normally I would hear Flutter starting her daily routine downstairs.

I will my fuzzy mind to get to work as I force myself out of bed. I grab the spare set of clothes Rarity gave me as I dropped her off last night and head to the bathroom. A hot shower helps wake me up.

Strange though, why am I hung over if it didn't do anything to me last night? Oh well, not a big deal right now. I remember Rarity told me to come by today to see the rest of my clothes before she has them sent over. She must have made quite a few if she doesn't think I can carry them.

One bit of good news is that I may be hung over but I don't feel like vomiting. That would be a shame too, Fluttershy makes a great breakfast. I finish dressing myself in my fresh clean clothes and head downstairs.

"Ahhhh… so nice to not smell like old sweat for once." I look around and the first thing I notice is there is no noise, no dishes being moved, no food being cooked or animals being tended.

Where is Flutter? She is always up before me. I head back upstairs towards her bedroom, maybe she slept in? I slowly push open the door so I won't startle her.

I had my head in that room for maybe, I don't know, five seconds. I saw all I needed to see. Flutter was in a very compromising position with her blankets thrown off. She had apparently fallen asleep while...umm...doing something last night.

I guess it would be called hoofing herself right? That alcohol did more to her than I realized. She had her back legs spread out with her hoofs both lowered to her…..i need to go make breakfast.

Doing my best to push this little incident from my mind I went down the stairs as quietly as I could. Well now I know one thing for sure, ponies and booze don't mix well.

I manage to make a edible meal of eggs (meant for baking) and toast. I never could make breakfast well, the only thing I can do for the life of me is pastries.

I shovel it down as fast as I can then find some paper and a quill to write Flutter a note.

"Dear Fluttershy,

I will be going out to see Rarity and to try to find some sort of job. I still intend to pay you for letting me live here. I will see you when I get back.

Sincerely yours, Zachary

P.S. I already ate and fed the animals their breakfast so don't worry.

Well that should do. Now I better get moving. I head outside and pour the same amount of feed I've seen Fluttershy into the trough; the animals have learned to get their meals from here so they should have no problems.

I start along the same path I used just yesterday on my first trip into Ponyville. Hopefully the girls won't be getting into trouble today. Walking at a brisk pace I'm able to reach Ponyville within an hour or so, I never have been good with time.

I notice a lot of the ponies I pass seem to be smiling at me while a few others are hiding their faces. I guess they just don't know if I'm dangerous or not. I am much bigger than them so I probably do look a little intimidating. Though I guess word of me helping the girls yesterday got around.

Give them time; people always take a while to adjust to something new. I have a much easier time of finding my way to Rarity's Boutique. I can't help but chuckle at the thought of small children sitting on the mannequins and carnival music playing.

I knock on the door and wait only a moment before I hear her begin the customary jingle "Hello and welcome to…. Oh it is you Zachary." I can't help but laugh the way her sing-song voice changed so abruptly.

"So I assume you are here to see your new clothes hmm?"

"Yes Rarity, I thought I should see your work first hand before I have the privilege of wearing it."

"Oh stop being silly, you are a friend, I am happy to make clothes for you. Come, come." I follow Rarity into what seems to be a living room with a table for sewing and a large, luxurious couch.

I hear small hoof beats approaching accompanied by a small voice "Who's here? Who's here?" I can feel something glomp onto my leg a moment later.

"Hello Sweetiebell, and how are you feeling?" I don't receive a response only a nuzzle into my shin. I'll take that as "I'm doing well" then.

I notice clothes that stand out from the rest hanging from the racks in front of me. "what do you think darling?" they are a mix of purples, whites, browns, oranges, blues, yellows, greens and I can even spot some pink.

"To be completely honest Rarity, I really like them. I have always liked cooler colors like purple, blue, green and black but, the lighter colors would match really well when its warmer out."

"I am happy you like them Zach and I hope the ones I gave you last night fit well?" I stretch out my arms and feel no resistance anywhere in the fabric,

"They fit perfectly, thank you so much Rarity. Oh and by the way, do you know any places that have jobs open? I need to start earning some bits."

I notice Rarity wince as she quickly walks over to the couch to lie down. "Are you alright Rarity? You seem to be in pain."

"No, no im just a little stressed out. I usually go to the spa with Fluttershy on saturdays but, I had too many clients to attend to." She seems like she has a really heavy workload, it must tire her out.

"Well maybe I could help you relax. I've given a massage before and people tend to tell me it helps when you're stressed." She seems to think it over for a second before giving a shrug, well; the best shrug a pony can give.

"I don't see any harm in it, if you don't mind then please go ahead." I walk over to her side while cracking my fingers. I know it's a bad habit but I just don't think about it, besides, it makes my hands feel better.

Rarity has a large couch so I have plenty of room to work with. I place one leg on either side of her as I straddle her back "Is this ok Rarity?" I don't want this to be awkward for her.

"No, I'm fine Zach, you may continue." I start with her head, gently placing my hands where I believe her temples should be. I rub in small, soft circles to relieve pressure from her headache.

After a few minutes I move to her cheeks "Excuse me darling, what are you doing?"

"Well, when you eat your just using your jaw so it gets stressed too. I need to remove the tension in your jaw." I rub her cheeks in small circles; I can feel her teeth through the skin, they're similar to mine except flat.

I'm about to start on her legs when I realize I forgot her horn. "Rarity I'm going to see if your horn has any tension." I place my hands at the base and I notice her body tense. It's probably sensitive, I better be gentle.

I only use my fingertips as I softly press up the horn and rub it in circles going down. I noticed Rarity's breathing changed, it's coming out low and a little labored. "Are you okay Rarity?"

"Oh I'm just fine, (gasp) keep going!" Well as long as this isn't hurting her I will keep going. I move on past the horn and go to her forelegs. It's pretty straight forward there, all I had to do was press in with my palms and use my knuckles on her hoofs.

Her body is really loose now, I guess she had a lot of stored up tension that hasn't been dealt with until now. I use my fingertips to press in on the tight spots on her back and shoulders.

"Almost done Rarity, I'm sorry if this is taking a while."

"Really Zach I have to (gasp) say that I feel great, thank you for (gasp) doing this."

Now all that's left is the flank, then to brush out her mane and tail. I turn myself around so I'm facing her backside. Haven't taken this close of a look at a mare's flank until now.

I start at the top of her back and work my way down, I'm only pressing hard enough where I would be able to hit the major knots. I can feel Rarity shifting from beneath me and muttering to herself, I can't make out what she's saying.

"Haa…*gasp*….(incoherent mumblings)…..b-be careful back there!"

"Of course Rarity, I'll be very cautious." I go back to the task at hand, making sure to watch how hard I'm pressing. Just as I'm about to finish I press on the marks on Rarity's flank.

Suddenly she bucks up and I nearly go flying. "Ohhhhh….. *gasp*…. what ….*gasp*….h-happened?" I stand up and look at her, her face is bright red and she is breathing in short, hot gasps.

"I-I'm not sure Rarity, I touched your mark, Are you ok? Do you need me to help you up?" she looks at herself and takes a deep shuddering breath.

"No I'm fine (she looks away from me, her face turning a deeper red) I'm just going to lay here and rest for a moment. You said you do this often? You should see if they're hiring at the spa."

"That sounds good Rarity, the clothes will be delivered to Flutter's so now I don't have to worry about wearing the same things over and over." I see Sweetiebell off before I head out the door and towards the market.

Smart move genius, you don't know where the spa is. Well I guess I'm going to go ahead and find someone who does. I hate myself sometimes; I have to ask for maybe 20 minutes or so before I find someone willing to tell me.

It's a small gray Pegasus with yellow hair and eyes. She seems to have a mail delivery bag, oh well that's peculiar. I notice her eyes aren't looking in the same direction. One is looking at me and the other up at the sky.

I have to admit that she does look quite adorable; she just has this trustworthy face and this wonderful little smile. "Muffin?" she's holding out a muffin for me, "Sure…thanks, and what's your name?"

I take the muffin and take a quick bite, wow, coffee cake, how did she know my favorite? "I'm Derpy Hooves, but you can just call me Derpy." I can't help but laugh at her innocent face and how calmly she can say that name.

"Well Derpy, I'm Zach and I think you're just wonderful, thanks for helping me find the spa." She smiles and flies off, I'm guessing to go continue her work. What a pleasant little Derp.

I step in and see two ponies standing at the front desk, a pink mare with a light blue mane and another mare with matching reverse colors. They both have a flower marked on their flanks, "Hello, I'm new in Ponyville as you can probably tell."

I clear my throat so I can speak clearly "And I was looking for a place to work, my friend Rarity suggested I try to apply as a masseuse here. So I would like to know if there are any openings."

The two mares look at me then each other and back again. "You're a boy and you want to work here?" I nod, not sure what they are asking. "Ok, we could use a new massage therapist to bring in more ponies anyway."

"Well that was easier than I expected, so what days do you want me? What pay are you willing to give me?" There is an awkward moment of silence before they respond.

"You should come in at least every other day, but the more you come in the more you make obviously." The pink one says with a smile. She may be running a business but she still seems really nice.

Then the blue one chimes in "We normally would pay a massage expert based on the customer satisfaction. Translation meaning happier the customers that day, more we'll give you."

So I need to make my clients happy to get more pay. That seems simple enough, but then again if nopony coming in wants a massage then no pay for me. "That sounds great, I have one last question, When are my hours?

"We open at around eight in the morning but nopony comes in until around half past nine, so you should be here by nine the latest." Well that shouldn't be a problem, I'm normally up by six thirty anyway.

"So when do you want me to start?" Again with the back and forth look. I hear the door close behind me as somepony walks in.

"You can start right now. Vinyl here has a massage scheduled, you can attend to her." There is a white mare with a shocking blue mane and some funky goggles waiting for me to respond.

"Right away miss. Aloe. Whenever you are ready Vinyl we can go to the tables." I follow her into the next room over which contains two long, soft massage tables.

She hops up on one and gets into what i assume is a comfortable position. She seems to be smirkng at me for some odd reason.

"So, is this gonna be your first time touching a mare Tiny?" Why would you ask that to a complete stranger, better yet what does she mean?

"No i've given a massage before if that's what your asking. And just so you know my name is Zach." She won't lose that smirk! Something tells me that this is going to get worse before it gets better.

"Well it's nice to meet you Zach but, i think i like Tiny. Anyway i just think it's funny that we just met and you are going to be rubbing me down in a minute, is that weird to you?"

"Weird or not it's my job, and if i want to get paid they said i need to make the customer happy." Well something tells me that i shouldn't have said that..She has a look in her eyes that is scaring me more than the timberwolf did.

"Well isn't that interesting. Well then if you need to make me happy, how about we hang out tommorrow, there is going to be a party and you better be there." Doesn't look like i have much of a choice here so i just sigh and nod.

"Let's just get started already, lie down will you." she looks at me with a sly smile, i can't help but wonder if i made a bad choice in applying here.

"I guess you just can't wait huh? Do you like ponies Zach?" Why me? I just move on with the routine trying my best to hide my embarassment.

This time i start with the horn and remind myself to avoid the markings. Her breathing starts to get rapid and i can hear her panting slightly as i tend to her horn.

I move across the rest of her body without much trouble. I noticed that while Rarity had a perfectly fluffy coat and mane, Vinyl has a certain wild beauty with her shocking blue hair that...what am i doing?

"What are you *pant* doing back there? I can *pant* barely feel it." I had been going lightly on her flank because i didn't want to set her off but if she wanted to feel it then so be it.

I dig my hands in pressing my finger tips into her marks. I feel her body shudder under me and she throws her head up "ohhhhhhhhh...praise Celestia!"

I have no idea who she's talking about but one look at the clock tells me i need to get going. "Ok Vinyl, i'll see you at the party tommorrow. I need to get going so just tell the girls how i did whenever your ready to leave."

i wave goodbye to Aloe and Lotus on my way out the door, asking them to give my pay to Fluttershy next time they see her. I had a lot to think about on my walk home.

While i laid in bed i remembered all the strange things that happened to me today. Seeing Flutter while she slept then while i massaged Vinyl and then Rarity. I'll just say i didn't sleep easily.

(Ending note)

Well that was a nice chunk of work. It was worse for me because i had to redo half of it due to internet issues.

Now i hope nobody was offended by this but i will say one thing, it's natural, they are all of the age where they have these experiences.

Well whatever if there will be hate so be it. I hope you all enjoyed, remember to check out my poll and if you want to send me any fanart or ideas or whatever please feel free.

Anyone who wants to chat with me can find me on facebook. My username will be given if you ask me in a PM, i would love to talk to you guys. Have a great day, i'll see you for chapter 6.
