>>157203"Okay..." He says
"Should I just go home, then?"
>>157204"Nuh-uh. Let's be together, for a little while at least." She lets him catch up and rubs her side against his. This time she's not wearing anything.
>>157206He smiles, and then rubs her back, first with her body, and then with his head and neck
"Hehehe"
He almost knocks her over.
>>157207The stout little filly is not easy knocked over. She giggles and pushes back into him.
>>157208squeakThe tall, lanky colt has a higher center of gravity, and has to move his moves to keep balance
"hehe"
He moves besides her, and slowly but firmly presses into her. Not quite like he's trying to make her move into a garbage can or lamp post (he walks along the streetside) but, well, he does seem to try to change her trajectory.
>>157209This time, Amber lets him steer her, if indeed he is trying to steer her.
>>157210But he backs off, because Amber is really the one who knows how to get home
>>157211Grinning back at him, she trots a little faster.
"We're really lucky, you know." >>157212"What do you mean?" He asks, trotting along
>>157214"That was, heh heh, unexpected. To be honest with you, I am still worried we are going to get fired for it. I just hope she doesn't tell my mom..."
>>157215She looks worried for a moment, then laughs it off.
"No, you put in too much good work for her to want to do that, and she's the only pony who knows. Maybe she likes us, or she was like me at some point." >>157216"I don't know how she feels about you. But I know that I get the bad assignments. If the seating plan has an exclave, I have to take it. The patio, I have to take it. Large parties, I have to take it. All of the easy tables and the good tippers, she sends to her friends. I do not think she likes me."
>>157218"That's been kind of my thought, but still. It feels like she doesn't like me, and whatever the reason, I'm being treated worse than the others. Also, you're newer than me, and she'll just let you have sex in the owner's office?"
>>157219"Well…you were also allowed into the owner's office," she says, trying to rationalize it.
>>157220"Maybe" He says
"I guess if she was trying to get the manager to fire us, I'll go work some place else."
>>157225He looks to her
“Perhaps. That would explain why the rags were there. I’ll I’m saying is that she isn’t normally nice to me and I wasn’t expecting her to let us do that.”
>>157227He walks alongside her silent for several moments, contemplating her words.
“Back at the pool. You were asking if I had a crush on Saky Mixer. I wanted to say ‘no. I don’t think she likes me’.”
>>157228Amber is confused by the sudden new tangent.
"Go on…" >>157229"Well, there isn't really much more to say about that. You asked me if I had feelings for Salt Mixer, and I wanted to say to you not only 'no' but a strong 'no'. Of course I thought that you were trying to tell me that you had feelings for me and you wanted me to ask you out."
>>157230After thinking this over for a moment, she replies,
"Well, I was in a way, I do really like you. But I thought it was funny to tease you just a little about it. Even if you did have feelings for her, I wouldn't like you less." >>157231"Well I can't say she isn't attractive, because she is. But I don't like being given the patio and diamond dog families, and I don't like being chastised for not knowing the menu. She does not make me feel good, and so I cannot have feelings for her."
He blinks
"Are you sure that wasn't you trying to get me to say I liked you? Because you said 'yes' when I asked you out."
>>157232"I may have been hinting at it," she says, with a small giggle.
>>157233Mustard Trim jumps up to pounce on Amber to ruffle her mane with both hooves
>>157234"Eep!" she cries out, then laughs as her mane is ruffled.
>>157235"Hehehe" he says. He looks around, and jumps off of Amber, seemingly because he is afraid of looking like he is assaulting her. But her turns to her and nuzzles her
"Oh Amber, you're so adorable."
>>157237“D’awww, thank Amber. I should make a pet name for you. How about teapot? You’re my little teapot, because you’re short and stout.”
>>157238Laughing openly, she says,
"Teapot? I can't even whistle well." >>157239He laughs.
“Can you? Try it. I want to hear you whistle.”
>>157240>>157241She sucks her breath in and…
"Prsbrtspt!"It's much more of a raspberry than a whistle.
>>157242He laughs
“Oh Amber, that’s not a whistle.”
>>157243She sheepishly looks at him.
"I know." >>157244“A whistle is more like this”
He makes a sound that is eerily reminiscent of the catcall the bay pony stallion gave to Amber earlier that day.
>>157246She purses her lips together and blows, but only the sound of the wind itself can be heard.
>>157246>>157247You'll get 'em next time, little pony
"Oh Amber, maybe you're just not destined to be a whistler"
>>157248"I guess I'm not much of a teapot, then," she says with a wry smile.
>>157137Mint Marine cautiously enters the house, looking around.
"Wow.... it's so fancy."
He looks to Jubilosa
"A griffin!"
He looks to Paper Clipping
"Another unicorn"
For what it's worth, Paper Clipping is young enough that he could be the older brother of Mint Marine.
White Orchid asks Jubilosa questions that seem to make her a little uncomfortable
"So when you move across the floor, do you ever scratch them? Can you retract your claws? Is that a thing? So like, can you just grab things? Like a Unicorn? Well, not like a unicorn, but you know, you can grab things"
>>157249"Awww. Well you're still little and you're still mine, I think." He smiles
>>157251She nuzzles his chin as she presses her body against his.
>>157252"Hehe" He nuzzles her back, and presses his body against hers. He wants to place a leg over her, but they must keep moving. The two arrive at Amber's place after some minutes
>>157253Amber nickers softly as she walks beside him up the stairs, swatting his backside with her tail. When they reach her apartment, she lets him in and locks the door behind them.
