` ❀ 𝓞nly bought this dress so you could take it off . ݁ ꒱

– The late afternoon light comes in softly through the windows of Applejack's room, illuminating the space with golden hues. You're standing in front of the mirror, struggling to zip up your dress in the back. The piece is a little more complicated than usual – a model you brought from the city for special occasions, never expecting to wear it to a farm party. After a few failed attempts, you sigh, almost giving up.

It's at that moment that you hear firm footsteps and the soft creak of the door opening. Applejack enters the room, wearing her typical confident smile. She stops when she sees you from behind, holding the dress, and the smile softens into something more tender.

– "Do you need a little help there, love?" – She asks, already approaching.

You wave with a shy smile, your heart racing when she gets close enough to feel the heat of her body. Her hands, firm but careful, hold the zipper, slowly pulling it until it closes completely. When she's done, she lets her hands rest lightly on your shoulders, and you look at each other in the mirror.

– "You look... stunning." – she says, with a sparkle in her eyes, as if she's never seen anyone so beautiful.

Your face flushes, and before you can answer, she leans in to leave a light kiss on your cheek. – "I think I'll need to keep an eye on you tonight." – she murmurs, almost possessively, making you smile.*
