The wedding was now only two months away, and while with the cake, the music and the flowers all taken care of, there was still much to do.
For starters, both sisters still had to write their vows, as well as create gift bags for their friends as well as a special way to apologize to them for keeping such an important secret from them for so long. While creating the gift bags was easy, for Pipp anyway, the other two things on their lists were challenging for both of them.
At the station, sitting at her desk, Zipp stared down at a blank piece of paper intensely, repeatedly poking it with a pencil she's holding with a frustrated growl.
Finally, she threw both her pencil and the paper into the air with an exasperated cry. "I give up!" Zipp exclaimed. "Why is this so hard anyway?!"
"What is?"
Zipp turned and saw Sunny approaching her. "Oh, hey Sunny. Yeah, I'm trying to come up with some good wedding vows. But I just can't seem to put how much I feel about Pipp into words."
"Sorry to hear. I wish I could help, but I don't really know much about writing vows." Sunny said.
"Did you ever ask your Dad what his vows were? You know, to your Mom?" Zipp inquired.
Sunny shook her head as she shrugged. "Nope, can't say I did. Besides, I never really knew my Mom. My Dad never mentioned her," she admitted.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Zipp apologized, feeling guilty for bringing up such a potentially delicate subject.
"Ah, it's ok. I only ever had my Dad in my life and for a while, that was enough." Sunny expressed. "Until, well, I met all of you."
Zipp smiled. "Thanks, Sunny."
"Oh, don't thank me just yet."
"Huh?"
"Well… I was gonna wait till later, but I don't see why I shouldn't tell you now."
"Tell me what?"
"About your bachelor party!" Sunny revealed.
"My what?" Zipp commented in surprise and confusion.
"Well, technically it's your bachelorette party, but since you've kind of taken the role of groom…" Sunny reasoned.
"Ah, I get it now." Zipp said. "To be honest, I kinda forgot all about that. Well… never really thought I'd be having one of those. I mean, I know Pipp's gonna have a bachelorette party, but me?"
"Well, why shouldn't you have one?" Sunny questioned. "You deserve to have one just as much as Pipp does. You both deserve to celebrate your last few months being engaged before being married."
"Yeah, guess your right. So, what do you have in mind for my 'bachelor/bachelorette party'?" Zipp inquired.
"Well, since you like the beach so much, me and Hitch thought we'd give you a relaxing day down at the Maretime Bay beach. Just relaxing in the sun, some surfing, maybe some dancing?" Sunny suggested with an eyebrow wiggle.
"Oh, sounds awesome! But wait, isn't Izzy coming?" The pegasus pointed out.
"She'd like to, but she and Misty are gonna be attending Pipp's bachelorette party." Sunny explained. "They didn't say what it was or where they'd be going though."
"Knowing my sister, it's gonna be wild." Zipp said knowingly.
Meanwhile, at Mane Melody, as Zipp predicted, Pipp was preparing for a wild night ahead of her. On top of getting her mane done and hooves painted, she was also putting decorations everywhere in the salon, with Izzy and Pipp's help of course.
"Eee! This is going to be the best bachelorette party ever!" Pipp sang.
"Especially since it's yours!" Izzy pointed out.
"Exactly!" Pipp agreed. "Oh, thank you so much for your help, ponies!"
"Of course! You can always count on a unicorn to have your back, and your rump!" Izzy declared while giving Misty a lip hip bump. "Right, Misty?"
"R-Right! Yeah! Wow, Pipp. I can't believe you and Zipp are getting married, you know… even though your sisters and all that…" Misty expressed, sounding a bit awkward but still trying to be supportive.
"Oh, I know. I can hardly believe it either! I thought I'd be a single filly all my life and now…" Pipp said with a blissful sigh. "Oh, and Misty, thank you so much for being so open minded and not freaking out when we told you about me and Zipp."
"Yeah, you took it surprisingly well." Izzy remarked.
Misty gulped, still unable to tell them that it was her who took the embarrassing photo of Pipp kissing a disguised Zipp's rump and posted it online. Since then, she knew all about their secret incestuous love. Thankfully, because it was still so shocking to her, she was still able to sound surprised when they told her while inviting her to Pipp's bachelorette party, but not enough from the sound of it. "Uh… well… I-I still am, just… trying to keep it inside, that's all," she half-lied.
"Ooh, that sounds unhealthy." Izzy commented before holding out a smoothie. "Super fruity come-on-out smoothie? Helps to bring all the bottled up stuff out!"
"Uh… no thanks." Misty politely declined.
Izzy just shrugged and drank it herself before suddenly blurting out. "I like pie!" she shouted before levitating a pie over from the snack table Pipp set up and eating it one bite.
"I hope you enjoy that, because once this party really starts, we're gonna party till we're purple!" Pipp declared.
"I love being purple! Wait, I already am! Yay!" Izzy cheered.
"Will there… you know… be a lot of 'booty shaking'?" Misty slowly inquired nervously. "I-I know you like to do that now…"
"You bet your cute butt there will be!" Pipp declared with a wink.
"Yeay! Praise the booty!" Izzy cheered.
"I… don't know if I can do that…" Misty confessed, blushing beneath her fur. She looked back towards her own rump. "Besides, my… my butt… isn't really that cute… Honestly? I'm surprised that a butt can be considered 'cute' at all. I mean… it's just a butt."
Izzy gasped dramatically. "Just a butt?!" she repeated, getting uncomfortably close to Misty.
"Uh… yes?" Misty slowly confirmed with a meek tone. She had a sinking feeling she said the wrong thing, but it was too late to take it back now.
Pipp came closer also. "Girl, believe it or not, I used to feel the same way. But Zipp helped open my eyes and now I'm gonna help you do the same."
"Me?" Misty remarked in surprise. "But wait… what about your bachelorette party?"
"Oh, who says I can't do both at once?" Pipp commented. "And trust me when I say to you that you got it, and if you've got it, you should flaunt it!"
Pipp wiggled her rump a little as she said this while Misty blushed and gulped.
"Uh… ok." she slowly said.
"Great!" Pipp exclaimed. She put her hoof around Misty and escorted her away. "Here, come help me with this, then the party can really get started!"
"Ooh! I'm so excited my tushie is tingling!" Izzy exclaimed while her backside vibrated. She smiled and began to pet it like she was petting a dog, causing one of her back legs to shake. "Aw, how excited are you! You're such a cute little bottom! Yes you are! Yes you are! Goochie, goochie, goo!"
Later on that same day, Sunny and Hitch were both relaxing in comfortable beach chairs, soaking up the sun's light shining down on both of them while their sunglasses protected their eyes. Both of them breathe in the fresh sea breeze and listen to the ocean waves repeatedly brush against the Sandy ground.
Hitch lets out a deep, relaxed sigh. "Another beautiful, sunshiny day on the Maretime Bay beach," he expressed. "The sun is shining, the beach is clean of trash."
"After you convinced us to help you clean up all the litter." Sunny teasingly reminded him.
The sheriff chuckled nervously. "Yeah… Sorry," he apologized. "But hey, at least Zipp's having fun."
Sunny glanced towards the waters and smiled as she watched Zipp surfing on the high waves and having a good time just as Hitch said.
"Yeah, she is." Sunny smiled before sighing. "Can you believe that in two months they're gonna be married?"
"I know! To be honest I'm… still surprised that it's Pipp and Zipp who are getting married." Hitch confessed. "I-I-I know how that sounds, but…"
"No, no! It's ok!" Sunny assured her friend. "To be honest, I… kinda feel the same way."
"Really?" he asked in surprise.
"Yeah… I mean, I would never reject them or anything, but it still feels a little bit uncomfortable… not the fact that they're both mares, but the fact that…" Sunny began to explain.
"They're both still sisters?" Hitch guessed.
"Exactly!" Sunny expressed before sighing again. "But in the end, it's not important. What is important is that they love each other."
"Right. Love is love, no matter how strange." Hitch agreed.
Zipp trotted up to them just then, her mane still wet and a towel hanging around her neck. "Hey. What's strange?" she asked curiously.
"Zipp! Oh, nothing." Sunny assured her.
Normally Zipp would be more inquisitive, but she was far too relaxed to care. She set up a beach chair beside her friends and laid down with a deep sigh as she put on her sunglasses.
As they all relaxed together, Sunny secretly stole glances at Hitch, who was busy fiddling with his phone. His hair glistened under the sunlight, and her heart fluttered like a butterfly caught in an endless loop of summer love.
She soon snapped out of it and turned to Zipp. "So, Zipp, can you believe you're getting married soon?" she inquired, trying to distract herself.
Zipp laughed. "I know, it's crazy!" she remarked. "To think we were once little fillies having our Cutie Blossom Bash together. We even had the same embarrassing moments together."
"Really?"
"Yeah! Like the time we tried to look pretty by using Mom's makeup, but we ended up looking like clowns and didn't realize it until we arrived at one of Mom's royal parties."
"No!"
"Yes!"
"Oh, you and Pipp must have been so embarrassed."
"Well, Pipp especially was. Me? I got over it pretty quick."
"Of course."
"Yeah, those were the days. What about you guys? Do you guys have any embarrassing moments growing up?."
Hitch finally looked up from his phone, a playful smirk playing on his lips. "Oh, do we? Sunny, remember that time you accidentally kissed me when we played spin the bottle as kids? We couldn't stop blushing for ages!"
Sunny's heart skipped a beat at the mention of their innocent antics. "Yeah, those were certainly memorable… awkwardly memorable."
"I'll say." Hitch agreed, oblivious to Sunny's discomfort.
"You know, I always thought I'd be single forever. I probably would be if I hadn't agreed to that spa day with Pipp." Zipp noted.
Sunny chuckled. "I know," she added before stealing a glance at Hitch. "And to think, Hitch had been harboring a secret crush on you all this time."
Hitch's face flushed, his eyes widening in surprise. "Sunny!" he exclaimed in embarrassment.
Zipp's eyes briefly opened widened before she smirked. "Did you now, Sheriff?"
"Uh…" Hitch muttered, his eyes darting around as his face became redder.
Zipp's cheeks became a little pink as well as she smiled bashfully. "Well, uh, to be honest Hitch, if… if I weren't already with Pipp, it'd…"
"Hey! Um… does anypony need to have their sunscreen reapplied?" Hitch quickly suggested while holding up a sunscreen bottle.
"Oh, right, I was just in the water." Zipp recalled as she turned over in her chair to lay on her stomach and spread her wings. "You mind, buddy?"
Hitch gulped loudly. "Sure…"
The sheriff got out of his chair and went over to Zipp, all while being watched by a slightly envious looking Sunny.
He sat down beside her, squirted some sunscreen on his hooves and began spreading the sunscreen on her back, making sure to cover every exposed area. The Pegasus sighed in relief, feeling the cooling sensation of the lotion against her coat.
Encouraged by her appreciation, Hitch couldn't help but feel a bit bolder. Soon enough, he finished applying sunscreen to her back. "There! All covered."
"Great. Now, could you also help me with my hind legs? It's difficult for me to reach them properly." Zipp requested.
Hitch gulped. "Sure…" he said, as he diligently began applying sunscreen to her legs, starting from her hooves and working his way up while Sunny pressed her lips together firmly as she watched.
But just as he was about to complete the task, the Pegasus surprised him yet again. "Would you mind doing my thighs and my rump too? The sun is really intense today," she requested.
Hitch's face turned crimson as he quickly backed up with wide eyes. "Uh… I'll be right back!" he said quickly before zipping off.
The girls turned in his direction, eyes wide and blinking slowly. While Sunny quickly understood his reaction while Zipp remained dumbfounded.
"Wonder what's up with him?" she remarked.
Sunny chuckled sheepishly. "Who knows…?"
"So, Sunny, you mind?" Zipp inquired, holding out the sunblock.
Now it was Sunny's turn to gulp and sweat a little. "Yeah… Sure."
Sunny took the sunblock, got up and went over to take Hitch's original spot, delicately squirted some sunscreen onto her hooves and started gently rubbing it onto Zipp's toned thighs.
As Sunny's hooves softly glided across Zipp's body, a wave of pleasure washed over her. The cool touch of the sunscreen mixed with Sunny's gentle massaging created a unique sensation. Zipp, surprised by the unexpected pleasure, let out a quiet moan, her body tingling with delight.
Sunny, recognizing Zipp's response, became more confident and adventurous in her sun-protection task. She slowly moved her hooves from Zipp's thighs to her rump, skillfully applying the sunscreen with sensuous movements.
"Thanks, Sunny," Zipp said with a smile. "You're really good at this."
"Anything for a friend." A chipper Sunny smiled back.
As Sunny continued to rub the sunscreen into Zipp's backside, the Pegasus started to moan and a great deal of pleasure washed through her body. The more Sunny ebbed, rubbed and shifted the extra fat in Zipp's glutes, the more pleasure she felt.
Just as Zipp let out a tiny gasp, she suddenly twitched and lifted her hips, accidentally smacking Sunny in the face with her sun-kissed bottom. The impact caught Sunny by surprise, causing her to lose her balance and tumble backward just as Hitch began to come over.
"Hey guys, sorry I…" he began before Sunny collapsed on top of him.
They groaned a little before they snapped out of their dazed, at which point their eyes met, cheeks blushing with embarrassment. A mix of surprise, confusion, and amusement danced within both of them.
Zipp, realizing what had just happened, burst into uncontrollable laughter. "Oh… Wow! I'm so sorry, Sunny! I didn't mean to… ahem… rump bump you into Hitch!" she exclaimed through fits of giggles.
James, being a kind-hearted and understanding pony, smiled warmly at the situation. "No worries. Accidents happen, I'm just glad Sunny's ok" he said with a smile.
As Sunny untangled herself from the tumble, she couldn't help but feel a surge of happiness as she and Hitch stared at each other while Zipp observed the two with interest.
Back at Mane Melody, Misty was seated in front of a projector screen, eyes wide with wonder and a little bit of fear while Pipp and Misty each stood on one side of the screen, both trying to look professional and serious. Izzy even had her oversized round glasses on just for the occasion.
As the two spoke, images from pony rumps of different sizes were projected onto the screen, as well the muscles of the rump, ponies adopting feminine feminine and elegant poses with their bottoms, ponies wearing clothes that purposely brought attention to their rears and a whole bunch more.
"Now then, you say a butt is 'just a butt', yes?" Pipp inquired.
"Yes… Although… I'm starting to think I shouldn't have…" Misty admitted.
"Well, believe it or not, mares with big butts have gained popularity and admiration in recent years, challenging many of the traditional beauty standards. What makes this body feature captivating isn't just its physical appearance, but also the confidence and empowerment that it embodies. A well-defined and curvaceous backside can enhance a mare's overall silhouette and also exudes an aura of femininity and sensuality." Pipp explained.
"Plus! Having a big butt means you're super strong too!" Izzy added while flexing her forelegs. "Takes a lot of exercise to build up that much muscle, and also a lot of eating to build up that much fat!"
"Yes, as you can see her many designers that created clothing that celebrates and accentuates this particular body part." Pipp said as she gestured to the screen, now showing pictures of dresses that simulate a big butt."
"Oh, I see. So big butts are like symbols of strength, confidence…" Misty began.
"And femininity." Pipp finished with a quick turn around and a cute little butt wiggle that made Misty blush. "And not only does it enhance curves and add a certain allure to one's physique, but it also serves a functional purpose."
"Functional purpose?" Misty repeated in surprise.
"A big tushie can provide better support and balance during physical activities and even promote better posture!" Izzy explained cheerfully.
"But… isn't having too much fat on it a bad thing?" Misty wondered.
"You'd think so, but actually having more fat in the lower body, in this case the booty, may have potential health benefits!" Izzy replied. "It also hurts less when you fall on your bum because it's so much more soft and squishy then your head!"
"From Ancient Equestria to present times, there have been countless examples of art, music, and literature that celebrate curves and emphasize the beauty of a well-rounded derriere. Moreover, having a bigger butt can have functional benefits as well." Pipp further explained.
"Like this!" Izzy piped up as she shook her unicorn butt for Misty.
This time, while also blushing, Misty giggled and stared at the sight with admiration. "Wow! Rumps really are amazing."
The purple unicorn quickly got super close to Misty again. "Right?!" Izzy commented enthusiastically.
Misty looked back at her own hindquarters and smiled at it. "And… is my butt cute too?"
"Oh, absolutely!" Izzy confirmed with a friendly hip bump that made Misty giggle before she playfully returned it.
"It's totes adorbs!" Pipp added as she glided over to the two. "And you'd better be ready to shake it, because it's time for this bachelorette party to really get started!"
The pink Pegasus flew up, clapped her hooves and the lights dimmed before hearts, stars and various colors started to shine all over. Both unicorns began bobbing their heads as fun pop music started to play.
Pipp quickly whipped out her microphone and cleared her throat. "And now, a special song dedicated to the pony who helped her realize how special my rump is, and how cute hers is as well!"
As Pipp started singing, Misty and Izzy started doing some booty shaking dance moves and hip bumps as well.
In a land far and wide, where love collides,
There's a tale of passion that no one denies.
Sitting here at the crossroads, microphone in my hand,
I sing of a rhythm that shakes the land.
Her name is Zipp, a wild soul so divine,
With moves that could make a grown pony lose her mind.
She's got that something, a groove that never fails,
Strutting on the dance floor, leaving trails.
Oh, Zipp's rump, it's got that sway,
Moving to the rhythm, night and day.
With every step she takes, hearts skip a beat,
Zipp's rump, oh, it's a heavenly treat.
Her hips sway like the ocean, waves crashing down,
Eyes shining bright, rocking this town.
Her rhythm captures souls, sets 'em ablaze,
Zipp's rump, it's a masterpiece, a heartfelt craze.
She'll twirl you 'round, making spirits soar high,
Lost in her magic, you don't even ask why.
With every smile, she lights up the room,
Zipp's rump, it's a melody, a sweet tune.
Oh, Zipp's rump, it's got that sway,
Moving to the rhythm, night and day.
With every step she takes, hearts skip a beat,
Zipp's rump, oh, it's a heavenly treat.
Now, gather 'round, let the music take control,
Zipp's rump, it's a legend, a story untold.
Her dance is enchanting, like a spell she weaves,
Leaving us breathless, believing in dreams.
With each hip shake, she takes us higher,
Zipp's rump, it sets our souls on fire.
In every bassline, the magic unfolds,
Zipp's rump, oh, it's a story to be told.
Oh, Zipp's rump, it's got that sway,
Moving to the rhythm, night and day.
With every step she takes, hearts skip a beat,
Zipp's rump, oh, it's a heavenly treat.
So, let the music play, as we all unite,
In the name of Zipp's rump, oh, what a delight.
A celebration of movement and pure desire,
Zipp's rump, a symphony set on fire.
From outside, muffled loud music played and lights shined through the thin gaps of the blinds covering the windows as the bachelorette party continued on.
