Could you get me some carrots? I think Golden Harvest has it out for me.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow lightly punches your shoulder</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Haha, sure Anon. We still down for tonight?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Yup, just stocking up on food. Next is a booze run. Wanna join me?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Awesome! I'll be right back.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow flies off to Carrot Top while you finish your purchase at the cabbage cart</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;tucking away your purchases in your bag, you jump slightly as Rainbow lands on your shoulders, dangling the bag of carrots in your face</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Done and done! Now let's go get that booze!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you snatch the carrots and throw them in your bag</span><br />&quot;Alright, alright. Let's head out.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow hoof-pumps in joy, &quot;Yeah!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she's always been cutely affectionate towards you ever since you started hanging out</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you just chalk it up to ponies being super touchy-feely and shrug it off</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;besides, you [spoiler]kinda liked it[/spoiler]</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow is humming with a smile on her face as you enter the liquor store</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;thank god they have liquor stores in this two-horse town (not literally), you'd have gone insane from drought if you had to go to Canterlot everytime you wanted booze</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow is suddenly gone from your shoulders and in front of you carrying two cases of Cider</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;not the Apple's brand, but it's all they have in stock</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you take them off her hooves and set them down on the check-out counter</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Are you sure Anon? I can get this, y'know. Weather patrol captain and all that.&quot; she rubs her hoof on her tuft trying to show off</span><br />&quot;Yeah, I got it Rainbow. Don't worry about it. It's been a while since we hung out. I feel kinda bad for leaving you hanging last Friday.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Aww, you don-I mean, you better feel bad! I had to hang out with Rarity that night since Fluttershy was tending to some new animal friend in the Everfree!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow huffs and crosses her hooves</span><br />&quot;Don't you like Rarity?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Well, yeah, but it's hard to deal with her one on one, y'know?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you nod, you can remember the first time you met Rarity. She was a bit... over-bearing. And she hasn't changed much over the time you've been here either.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the shopkeeper gives glances over at Rainbow and back to you, scrunching his muzzle</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Will that be all?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Yup, that should cover it.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Ten bits, please.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you hand over the bits and the shopkeeper just snatches them away practically throwing you your receipt, &quot;Have a good day&quot;</span><br />&quot;Right, you too.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash grabs the cider and you both head out</span><br />&quot;Weird, guy seemed off today. He's usually nicer. I wonder if he's not over me being human yet?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow droops her ears and sags a little in her flight next to you, &quot;Y-yeah, maybe he's just getting used to y-you still.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you shrug, nothing you can do at this point</span><br />&quot;Oh well, onward to movie night!&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash hoof-pumps, &quot;Yeah!&quot;</span><br />&quot;So, what do we have in store for tonight?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oh, you'll see~&quot; she says as she tries to hide her snicker behind her hoof</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;it better not be clowns, you hate clowns</span><br />&quot;It's the fucking clowns isn't it?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;snicker</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;yup, it's the fucking clowns</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you sigh and just open the door to your house, Rainbow trotting inside and dropping the cider off in the fridge</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she plops down in your couch and pops one open</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you shove the groceries in the fridge and take out the carrots, celery, brocolli and ranch, as well as a cider for yourself</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;plopping down next to Rainbow you place the food on the table and start the TV</span><br />&quot;Alright Dash, you're up first.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Hehe, you sure you want me to go first? You might lose before we even start.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Damnit, she's right.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;It's been a tradition for you two to do movie night and try to scare the shit out of the other. The first one to give in and walk away before the movie ends loses.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;not-tonight.png</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you've got something *special* planned for tonight</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smirk</span><br />&quot;No, no, it's alright. Don't you worry, I can hold myself together long enough to see your scared face writhing in terror.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Pff, as if! You're gonna be crying in the first 30 minutes!&quot;</span><br />&quot;Try me&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oh you wanna go!?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Yeah! Let's go!&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you're both nose to nose, staring eachother down in a weird attempt at intimidating eachother</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow snorts</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;that's all it takes, you both barrel over in laughter trying to get yourselves back together</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Hehe, alright. I'm gonna actually put in the movie now. Get ready to change those pants of yours.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Hah, yeah right. Just play it already.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;You pop open your cider as she inserts the tape and relax as she floats back over, leaning up against you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you wrap your arm around her soft, warm body, totally not trying to ignore any buldges in your pants at all. Nope, none of that.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;After some readjustment for comfort, mainly consisting of Rainbow snuggling deeper into your side, you press play</span><br /><br />------<br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;well, you were right. It was the fucking clowns again.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you gotta hand it to Dash, though. She keeps finding all these obscure clown horror films that you've never heard of that put &quot;Killer Clowns from Outer Space&quot; from back home to shame.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;this one had one scene in particular that made you ALMOST go to the restroom for a &quot;break&quot; consisting of a clown, a hay wagon in the city, several foals, and a rubber ducky</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;that rubber ducky never saw it comeing</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;breaking out of your reverie, you hear snickering from your chest</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;huh, that's weird. Dash was at your side last you checked...</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow pushes herself from your ironclad grasp and looks up at you with a smug look</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Ready to change those pants yet Anon?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Oh. You didn't run out of the room, but you DID clutch Rainbow like a stuffed toy while you tried to grin and bear it. Well. That's embarrassing.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;You let go of Dash, scratching the back of your head</span><br />&quot;H-haha. Don't get a-ahead of yourself Rainbow. I'm still good to go!&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow just smirks and raises an eybrow at that</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Suuure, whatever you say Anon.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Sooo... could you get off me for a second so I can put in the next movie?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Right, sorry.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she jumps off you and goes to the fridge while you swap the video tapes</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you rejoin on the couch as she plops the rest of the cider on the table</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I'm tired of having to get up and get more cider. We can just put whatever we don't drink in the fridge later.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Uh-huh. Sure that's just because you don't want to get called out for leaving the couch Dash?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;You wish. Just start whatever weak-feathered movie you have ready. I'm sure it'll be a piece of cake.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Right, just like the time three weeks ago when you literally flew THROUGH my open window and didn't stop until you were under your covers shivering from fear?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;WHO TOLD YOU WHERE I WENT!?&quot;</span><br />&quot;I have my sources.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;your source was Tank. Well, not Tank directly, you had to coax Fluttershy into translating for you. You actually felt sorta bad about that one.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;W-well, whatever. You got me once. Big deal. You won't get me like that again. I'm tougher than that now.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Right. You have changed so much in the past three weeks.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;she punches your arm a BIT harder than necessary</span><br />&quot;Owww...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Just shut up and play the movie dumbass.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Fiine&quot;<br /><br />-----<br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;at the end of the movie, you're holding a shivering mass of fur and feathers.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow has her head buried into your stomach, covering her ears with her hooves.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;it brought a smile to your face</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;winning.jpeg</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;that smile slipped off your face as you realize she isn't stopping. She's genuinely trembling in terror right now. The only thing that stopped her from running away like last time was probably your comment before the movie even started.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;damagecontrol.exe</span><br />&quot;Hey, Dash? You okay?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;no response</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you stroke her hair as you hold her a little tighter</span><br />&quot;Shh, it's ok Rainbow. I'm sorry. It got a little out of hand. I won't take it that far again.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;sniffling, she just nods, hitting you lightly with her hoof</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Y-you b-better n-not.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you sigh, glad to see she's responsive at least.</span><br />&quot;Hey, we still got another... <span class="nu0">12</span> cans of cider to get through. Do you think we can finish them tonight?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;H-heh, I'm pretty sure that won't be a problem.&quot;</span><br />&quot;I don't know... if you're not feeling that good right now I could always just drink them later while you go of to-&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;NO!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she's now glaring at you with her wings expanded</span><br />&quot;Ooookay then. Sooo, cider?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you hand her a cider as a peace offering</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow snatches the cider from your hand, huffing and jumping off you onto the couch</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you grab another cider for yourself and pop it open</span><br />&quot;So Dash, what DID you do with Rarity last Friday?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oh, don't get me started...&quot;</span><br /><br />-----<br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you wake up to a splitting headache as the beams of blinding light penetrate your blinds and hit your face</span><br />&quot;Urgh&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you grunt intelligently</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;moaning, you toss around trying to go back to sleep, even bringing the covers back over your head to hide your face from the tryant Sun, but the damage is done.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;grunting in resignation, you roll out of your bed, landing on the ground.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;pushing yourself up, you slowly make your way to the kitchen</span><br />&quot;Coffee...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;once you have your second cup of the sweet sweet nectar in your hands, you look up at your couch</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;a rainbow mane sticks out from the side, from what you can only imagine is the most dignified of poses that Rainbow Dash can muster at this exact moment.</span><br />&quot;Rainbow&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;no response</span><br />&quot;RAINBOW!&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow snorts</span><br />&quot;Get up and get coffee you miniture horse.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Who you calling a whorse?&quot;</span><br />&quot;You. Now get your flank up and get some fucking coffee.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you swear you see a god-forsaken zombie emerge from the grave as Rainbow emerges from behind the couch. Ironic, since zombies seem to be her weakness and the very reason she was terrified to death last night.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow takes the offered mug and downs it in one shot</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;GAAH&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow scrunches her muzzle as she closes her eyes</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;chuckling you just take her mug and fill it up for a second which she gladly takes, sipping this time</span><br />&quot;What do you expect? I don't do cold coffee Dash.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Heathen.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the two of you sit silently sipping your coffee for a few moments as you both recover from your respective hang-overs</span><br />&quot;So, why exactly are you so scared of zombies anyways? I mean, I figured it out after about a month of movie nights but you never explained it.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Cookies.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Cookies?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash just nods, &quot;Cookies...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she looks down at her coffee, staring into the abyss that it offered</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;deciding not to press the issue on a hung-over Rainbow, you took a seat at the table, Dash joining you</span><br />&quot;Breakfast?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Sure.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Alright, how's SugarCube Corner sound? Some scones sound really good right now.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash smiles, &quot;Yeah, I'd like that.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Cool, lets head out then.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you grab the mugs and throw them in the sink</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Uhh, Anon?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Yeah?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Don't you wanna, y'know. Take a shower first?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;sniffing you determine that yes, a shower is in order.</span><br />&quot;Shit, yeah. That's probably a good idea. You go first, I'll clean up a bit.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow just nods and heads off to the bathroom. This isn't the first time she's woken up hung-over at your house from a late Friday night at your house.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;by the time you two leave, you've both showered, you got a clean set of clothes on, and the place doesn't look like it's been through WWIII anymore.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;as you exit the house, you grunt and cover your eyes against the blinding light.</span><br />&quot;Rainbow...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I already told you, if I made the schedule so every Saturday morning was cloudy, the higher-ups at Cloudsdale would have my flank for it.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Pleeeaase...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;No.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Fiine&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you grunt in resignation and make your way to SugarCube Corner</span><br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;stepping inside, you are immediately assaulted by the sight of the resident ever-cheerful pony Pinkie Pie waiving animatedly at you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Good morning!&quot;</span><br />&quot;Morning Pinkie.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you manage to greet Pinkie properly as you make your way to your regular seat for Saturday mornings. It's the one in the back with the least light shining on it. Normally ponies shy away from this spot due to the poor lighting, but it's perfect for a hang-over.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash takes her spot across from you and you look down to see Pinkie already placed your orders at your seats. How she managed to time it correctly EVERY time still amazes you. Your cinamon scone is still piping hot and Dash's cupcake looks like it's fresh as well. You suppose that it makes some amount of sense, since you've been coming here on Saturday mornings for at least a year now. Not every time, but enough where it's unusual if you're not here and Pinkie will ask about it.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;But that timing! You'll never understand how Pinkie times it so perfectly.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;not wasting anymore time, you dig in</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;as is customary, Pinkie shows up about 5 minutes after you both finish, basking in your now full stomachs</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;So, how was everything?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Do you even have to ask?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Hehe, I guess not. Especially since you always leave me a huge tip.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Of course, you're the best pastry shop in all of Ponyville. Why wouldn't I want to keep you happy?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow raises an eyebrow at that</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;This is the only pastry shop in all of Ponyville.&quot;</span><br />&quot;My point stands.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow just snorts and leans back in her chair with a smirk, &quot;Whatever you say Anon.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Pinkie giggles and clears your plates.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;So, what was the lineup this time?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow crossed her hooves with a smug grin on her face, &quot;I had him watch 'Clowns from Manehatten'&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Pinkie jumped up and down with excitement, &quot;Ooooh, that's a good one! Did you win?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Not... exactly.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow just looks off to the side, her head down and desperately trying to cover the fact that she's blushing</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Pinkie just looked over at you and raised an eyebrow inquisitively</span><br />&quot;I had her watch 'Zombies from Beyond the Viel&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Pinkie just opened her mouth in a silent 'Oooh'</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you can hear Dash grumble from her seat</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Pinkie giggled</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;So do you two have plans for today?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Well, I have to go to Twilights for my monthly report. Though, I think she still makes me do it so I see somepony OTHER than Rainbow.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Haha, don't flatter yourself.&quot; Rainbow says, smirking. &quot;Besides, I gotta get some practice in today and I promised Scoots she could watch.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Right, how is she by the way?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;She's fine. Doing much better after that incident with the fish in her desk.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Ah, yeah... that would definitely get anyone to scale back a bit on the adventures.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you're STILL not sure how she managed to get 50 fish stuck in her school desk. Even Cheerilee was impressed.</span><br />&quot;Well, I should probably be going then.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you drop a handful of bits on the table, having had precounted them before you even left.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you get up to head out and Rainbow calls out to you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;See you tomorrow?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Sure, sounds good. Usual place?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Yeah, sounds good. I'll meet you there.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you nod and head out to Twilight's</span><br /><br />-----<br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;be Rainbow Dash</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Anon just left SugarCube Corner</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Pinkie turns to you with a shit-eating grin</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Sooo, when you gonna finally ask him? Huh? Huh?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she's nudging you with her elbow</span><br />&quot;Pinkie! I already told you! I don't want to scare him off! He's literally the first guy who's given me the time of day who wasn't just in it for sex. I... really like that about him.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smile and blush a bit as you recall all the times you've hung out with Anon. He always seems interested in you for *you*.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Pfft, well, yeah! Anon's great! And he thinks YOU'RE great! So you should just ask him already!&quot;</span><br />&quot;I don't know Pinkie... what if he... doesn't want to be around me anymore once I ask? I mean, I really enjoy having him as a friend and I don't want to lose that.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;It'll be fine, I promise! Just ask him!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Pinkie's enthusiasm never ceases to bring a smile to your face.</span><br />&quot;I just do-&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;the bell for the front door rings and Rarity walks in</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Pinkie waves her over and Rarity smiles and makes her way over to you and Pinkie</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Why hello Darlings. How are you both?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity glances over at your slightly disheveled appearance</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I see another Saturday morning hang-over for you Rainbow.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smirk</span><br />&quot;Hehe, yeah. You know me...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oh, but it seems Anon isn't with you? Nothings wrong, is it?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity looks at you with concern lining her brow, already leaning in to show support if needed</span><br />&quot;Nah, nothing like that. I just-&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;We were just talking about how she needs to just ask him out already! It's only been, what? 2 years, 14 days, 8 hours and 36 minutes since she met him at the park and then fell in love with him over only 8 months 3 days 8 hours and 16 minutes!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Pinkie is smiling in her usual Pinkie way</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you and Rarity just stare at her and blink</span><br />&quot;Right...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity snaps out of her daze and imediately turns her head towards you, a creeping smile on her muzzle that sends chills down your spine</span><br />&quot;Rarity...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity sits down across from you and widens the already chilling smile</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Why Dash, Darling. I do believe Pinkie Pie has a point...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh no</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I believe now is...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;what followed is a series of events where somehow Rarity and Pinkie convinced you that tomorrow would be the PERFECT time to ask Anon out on a date for Wednesday night at what sounded like a fancy schmancy restaurant. You weren't one for fancy, but Rarity INSISTED that it would be PERFECT for your first date with Anon.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you can only hope it goes half as well as Rarity is making it out to be</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;So, it's decided then. At the end of your usual 'hang-out' with Anon tomorrow, you'll pop the question!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you snap to attention</span><br />&quot;Rarity!&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity cocks her head to one side, &quot;Yes?&quot;</span><br />&quot;I'm not asking him to m-marry me! I'm just asking him out on a d-d-d-date...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;suddenly your hooves look VERY interesting, complete with bumping them together at regular intervals</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oh, yes of course dear, of course. We won't be talking about the wedding until at least another month or so!&quot;</span><br />&quot;Not helping!&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;your breath is starting to hitch now as you breath deeply, trying to keep your calm in futility</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Pinkie grabs you and gives you a big hug</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oh it'll be so amazing Dashie! I'm sure you'll have sooooo much FUN!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you tap Pinkie on the shoulder as the precious air leaves your worldy body</span><br />&quot;Pinkie... can't... breath...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oops! Sorry.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Pinkie lets go quickly and looks down scratching the back of her head</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you drink from the life giving air greedily</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Well dear, I'm glad you finally agreed to do something about this! Honestly, I thought we'd have to do something DRASTIC soon to get you to ask him!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you gulp, you don't want to know what 'drastic' was for Rarity. She can get... enthusiastic when it comes to romance.</span><br />&quot;R-right. Anyways, I gotta go practice and hang out with Scoots so I'll see you girls later.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smile and it's returned all around</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;group hug ensues</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Pinkie and Rarity say their goodbyes and you head off to grab Scootaloo for the day</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;as you exit SugarCube Corner, you realize you just agreed to ask Anon out tomorrow.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;horseapples</span><br /><br />-----<br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;be Anon</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Twilight's was fun but somehow she convinced you that you needed to go to 'stallions night' tonight.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;something about making more friends or some shit</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;be at said &quot;stallions night&quot; which consisted of Big Mac, Caramel, Thunderlane, Time Turner, and yourself playing poker at Sweet Apple Acres.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;several ciders in already</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Thunderlane turns to you as Big Mac deals another hand</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;So, not that we're complaining or anything, but why did you decide to join us tonight Anon?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you turn to him and smirk</span><br />&quot;Apparently the Princess of Friendship decided I could use a few more friends. Specifically of the stallion variety since I seem to be spending most of my time with mares which is 'an unbalanced exposure to Equestrian society as a whole'.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Ha! Sounds like Twilight alright.&quot; Caramel chimed in</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Well, I'm glad you finally came around.&quot; Time Turner said, &quot;It's nice to finally get you to join us after all this time.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Yeah, finally got away from the charity case, huh?&quot; Thunderlane said, elbowing you playfully.</span><br />&quot;Uh, sure...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you think to yourself for a moment. Who's the charity case? Was it Sweetie Belle? You sometimes would help her with her homework, but you didn't think anyone would be *that* mean towards foals.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;It seems that while you were in your introspection, the hand had been dealt and it's your turn.</span><br />&quot;Oh shit, sorry guys. I call.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you look at your hand, but you can't focus. What was Thunderlane talking about?</span><br />&quot;Hey Thunderlane?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Yeah?&quot; he looks over at you, placing his hand face-down on the table</span><br />&quot;Who's the 'charity case' you were talking about?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Thunderlane just raises an eyebrow at that. &quot;Seriously?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you just shrug, motioning him to continue</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Are you blind Anon?&quot; Thunderlane asks you, completely straight-faced.</span><br />&quot;Yes, clearly I am blind as I can see you have two pairs in your hand.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you point to his cards, smirking. He's not very good at hiding them.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Hey!&quot; Thunderlane fumes</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;The other stallions snicker in the background</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Caramel pipes up, &quot;You know you've never been good at cards, but we never did tell you *why*.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Bastards...&quot; Thunderlane grumbles, trying his best to hide his cards.</span><br />&quot;Anyways, what did you mean by 'charity case', Thunderlane?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Caramel pipes up this time, &quot;Are you saying you don't see it Anon?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you look over at Caramel and can only raise your eyebrow at his question</span><br />&quot;Yes, I am saying whatever it is I'm supposed to see, I'm not 'seeing it'.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you said in the most serious tone you can muster, trying to convey that you weren't joking around about this.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Thunderlane spits out his cider, &quot;SERIOUSLY?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;he gets closer and stares into your eyes</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;well, this is awkward</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;it's just you and Thunderlane, nose to muzzle in an intimate battle of stares. His breath grazes the skin on your face as you stare at him with a grimace.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;finally, after what seems like hours (but is probably a few minutes), he pulls back, allowing you your sweet sweet untainted oxygen yet again.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;he snorts, &quot;He's serious.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the surrounding stallions drop what they're doing and stare at you wide-eyed</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;So you really dont'...&quot; Caramel said, jaw dropping</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you just sigh and roll your eyes in response</span><br />&quot;If someone would be SO KIND as to EXPLAIN, I would be ETERNALLY grateful.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Right, uh...&quot; Time Turner said, shuffling his hooves looking at the other stallions desperately</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;It's Rainbow Dash.&quot; Thunderlane said, looking at you straight-faced</span><br />&quot;I'm sorry?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;wtf is this? What does Rainbow have to do with this?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Rainbow Dash is the charity case.&quot; Thunderlane explained.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you look at him with a cocked eyebrow and a silent question on your face. Thunderlane delivers.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Rainbow is ugly, Anon. Her mane is atrocious, her eye color stands out too much, her coat is faded by the Sun, her ears are tilted at a weird angle, she's got no fat on her, and her hooves are definitely too soft. Have you seen her try and buck anything except a cloud? She grimaces everytime because it *hurts* her.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Caramel nods, &quot;It's not just her looks either, Anon. She's abrasive, clingy to whoever lets her near her for more than five minutes, rude, inconsiderate of others, pushy, and don't get me started on her fan club...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oh, I know!&quot; Time Turner interjects, &quot;The way she literally soaks up *any* praise that comes her way is soooo annoying! No one wants her around and she just can't take the hint! Honestly, we thought you were just hanging out with her so often because you were taking one for the team.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Thunderlane smiles gently and puts a hoof on your shoulder. &quot;Don't worry Anon, you don't have to take one for the team anymore. We really appreciate it, but you've proven you're a bro. Gotta hand it to ya, you stuck it out even when we thought you'd quit in the first week! We had a pool going and everything.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oh yeah! Who ended up winning that anyways?&quot; asked Caramel.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;No one, we all lost. No one bet past 2 months.&quot; Time Turner answered</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;shock</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;numb</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;what are you supposed to feel right now?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you turn your head to Big Mac and he just smiles gently and nods</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;as if he was trying to be supportive of you now that you're amongst 'friends'</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;what...</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;just, WHAT!?</span><br />&quot;I'm sorry, but I've got a question.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you say evenly, looking in each stallion's eyes in turn</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;they collectly perk their ears, ready to listen intently</span><br />&quot;Just... WHAT IN THE HOLY FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU FUCKING RETARDED ASS HORSES!? I HAVE HALF A MIND TO-&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you're screaming, you're not sure what words are coming out of your mouth anymore but all four stallions are huddled in the corner holding eachother and staring at you frightened as you stand over them huffing and screaming loud enough that even Mayor Mare can hear you in the middle of Ponyville.</span><br />&quot;-AND I SWEAR TO GOD, IF I EVER HEAR ANY OF YOU SAY ANYTHING LIKE THAT AGAIN I WILL *PERSONALLY* CASTRATE EVERY LAST ONE OF YOU!&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you're pissed. No. Beyond pissed. You don't even have a word for how angry you are right now. You can't remember the last time you've been this angry. You're not even sure you ever have. The ponies have *definitely* never seen you anywhere *close* to being this mad.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;but none of that matters, your blood is pumping and sweat is already coating your body with exertion as you breath heavily.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the sight of the shivering stallions brings you a certain amount of pleasure right now but you can't stay here. You might actually hurt somepony. You can't have that. You don't want to go to whatever fucked up version of prison Equestria might have.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you leave, slamming the barn door on your way out</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;time for a walk</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you walk and walk and walk. You can't tell how many times you lost track of where you were. Your feet were on autopilot, leaving you to fume silently.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;how could they say such terrible things?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow Dash is absolutely beautiful. Her mane is one of the best parts of her allure!</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Her eye color stands out? Of course it does! That's what makes it so easy to get lost in her eyes! You've caught yourself staring into those deep pools a few times over the past few years. She never did call you out on it though...</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;and none of the rest of the points seem to make sense either. Faded coat? Soft hooves? And what was up with the ear thing? You have no idea where they were going with that one.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;but what had gotten you the most; what really set you off was the talk about *who* she was and not just what she looked like.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;abrasive, rude, inconsiderate, pushy, and an attention whore?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;well, that last one was true. You can't deny that one.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;but sure, she might be a bit aggressive, direct, and generally a 'take no bullshit' kinda mare, but how is that a bad thing? If anything that's what drew you two together in the first place!</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;well, that and her beatiful mane. That first day you saw her, that was the first thing you noticed. The way she flew and it left a matching rainbow trail...</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;shaking your head, you stop</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;looking down you've made it to the pond in Whitetail Woods.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;how did you get here?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you're really far out now, but it's a safe spot. You've been here before with Rainbow and the Cutie Mark Crusaders when they were doing some sort of 'crusade' to get their cutie marks in catching fish.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;that brought a brief smile to your face, but it fell quickly as you sat to ponder what exactly happened back there.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Thunderlane, Caramel, Time Turner, and Big Mac all just thoroughly insulted your best friend and you blew up in their face over it.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;no, blowing up doesn't even begin to describe it. You went balistic and blacked out. You're just happy that you held yourself together well enough to not escalate it into violence.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;why they were crouched in the corner confuses you though. Even if you had brought it to blows against them, they could *easily* have over-powered you. Perhaps they were just unused to confrontation? Was it your height?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;whatever the case, it was definitely odd.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;but, you have to wonder. They *all* seemed to be on the same page. It can't be that only one of them held such a bad opinion of Dash. They all added something different to it, but also agreed on the points already addressed.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;was there any truth to it? Was Dash... unattractive?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;no, there's no way. There *has* to have been a mistake somewhere. There's absolutely no way you can accept that right now. You just can't imagine it.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;a world where Rainbow Dash was ugly? Hah! Unthinkable!</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you'll have to ask Rainbow's friends about it later. They know her best and might be able to shed some light on the situation. But for now, you should head home. You do plan to meet up with Dash tomorrow at the park at noon.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;best not to mention this to her though. You don't plan on lying to her, but you'll gloss over some of the less... endearing parts.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you get up and smile up at the stars</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Luna really does do a great job</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;heading home, the thought of spending the day with Rainbow tomorrow brings a smile to your face and a slight aching in your chest. It seems to get better when you're together with Rainbow so you just play it off as anticipation for all the fun you'll have together.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;tomorrow will be a great day</span><br /><br />-----<br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you arrive at the park, walking towards the tree at the far end where you usually meet up with Rainbow</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;it's about 11:30AM, which is a bit early, but you were always early. A habit you brought with you from Earth. Always early, never late. It's what got you the job at Sofa's and Quills and it's served you well so far.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;as you approach, you see Rainbow Dash pacing around the tree</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;well that's odd</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you're always the first to arrive. Dash usually shows up at noon. And while she's never been *late* per say, she's definitely never been *early*</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;except that time when she was late due to some conflicting scheduling at work. You told her it was fine, but it was obvious she felt bad about it for at least a week.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you guess it had to do with the whole loyalty thing. Not holding up her end of the deal or something like that.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;that still left the question, why was she here early?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;it's entirely unprecedented. Maybe something good happened?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;did she get that pay raise she was hoping for and wanted to tell you about it?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;that would make sense</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you look up and Rainbow Dash is right in front of you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;stopping abruptly, you avoid running into her</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she smirks and playfully punches your shoulder</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;C'mon Anon, don't be spacing out on me already! Aren't you excited for our day of fun-filled adventure together?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;laughing, you lightly shove her back a bit while she hovers in front of you</span><br />&quot;Yeah, yeah. So what do we have in store for today? I take it you're in the mood for something more than relaxing by the lake today.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Hay yeah! We're gonna go hiking today!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she's grinning widely, rubbing a hoof on her puffed out chest</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;cute silly horse</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smile, glad you brought your 'adventure' clothes with you today</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;they're really just a pair of durable pants and a breathable but durable long-sleeved shirt, complete with a pair of boots suitable for hiking.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you had these ever since you and Dash got lost in the Everfree a year ago. Your clothes were completely ruined from that and Rarity was aghast at the sight. If you recall correctly, she had said something along the lines of &quot;Get those clothes off right this instant! They are an affront to FASHION!&quot;. This, of course, brought instantaneous laughter and you made sure she didn't hear the end of it for *weeks*.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;She came through and gave you a replacement for what you had been wearing (improved over the original of course) and a separate set of magically enhanced clothes that just made them more durable and weather proof.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;You wear them on your day-time get togethers with dash since they tend to end in some sort of physical activity.</span><br />&quot;Alrighty then, where to?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Follow me!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash smiles turning around and lands, leading the way with a trot.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you follow, definitely not distracted by the way Rainbow's plot sways to and fro or the way her tail seems to be teasing you with how it's just *perfectly* positioned so you won't see anything. Nope, you're not distracted by this at all. And definitely not by the tight muscles release and contract in her rear end, while also not conjuring up thoughts of how those tight muscles might be used elsewhere-</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you shake your head, snapping yourself out of your thoughts</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;what brought this on?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;was it last night?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;it must have been. You still haven't gotten over how those stallions talked about Rainbow. No matter how you look at it, she's the definition of beauty.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you've been in pony land for a long time, you've had time to get past the whole 'talking animals' routine. Ponies are basically people with different bodies and you've come to accept that. Dash definitely being no small part of that process.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you quicken your pace so that you're side by side with Rainbow</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow seems to notice and closes the distance between you a bit. Not quite touching, but very little room between you.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you've come to learn that this is a sign of trust amongst ponies. They will move closer together the more their bond increases. You've seen a few couples nearly hang off of eachother in town.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;looking down, you see Dash's cheesy grin</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she notices your look and looks away, her cheeks reddening</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;chuckling you just turn your head forward and follow her lead</span><br />&quot;So, how was practice with Scootaloo?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Ugh! I *still* can't manage to get the triple loop spiral sommersault to roll into the zig-zag corkscrew quite right yet. Scootaloo was great as always, but it was just *so* frustrating having to end the day without any progress to show for it.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Heh, I'm sure you'll get it. You just have to keep practicing.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I know. I just get impatient sometimes even though I've been through this enough times to know that impatience usually makes it just that much longer.&quot; Dash sighs, &quot;But if I get this down, then all I need to do is cut down on my turn time and smooth out some other things and I should be good for the show this year.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Worried?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smirk and nudge her lightly with your hand</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow puffs her chest out and flutters her wings</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;No way! I'm *the* Rainbow Dash! Fastest flier in all of Equestria! If anypony can do it, I can!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;She flies up a bit and strikes a pose</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you just look at her with a straight face with a few moments</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she returns your gaze with her trademark grin</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;silence</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you grin maliciously and rais your hands</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;A-anon?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow's grin wavers</span><br />&quot;Sounds like *somepony* needs a little 'grounding'.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you wiggle your fingers</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow backs away slowly, laughing nervously</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;C'mon Anon, I'm *totally* grounded. Why, I couldn't be more grounded even if I were an Earth Pony...&quot; she says while dropping to the ground giving her best forced smile with her wings exended.</span><br />&quot;Oh really?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smirk as you close the distance between you and Rainbow</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;AnoOOOOO-&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you leap and grab her, comencing with your attack</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you dig your digits into her fur, moving rapidly while maintaining a firm hold on her so she can't slip away</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow squeels with uncontrolled laughter, kicking and slapping your body with her hooves</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow eventually manages to roll you over using her wings and lands on top, pinning you arms to the ground</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she grins, huffing and puffing from exertion</span><br />&quot;Rainbow... let's not be hasty now.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you offer your hands up in a placating gesture</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;nodice.png</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow uses her wings to brush across your body while holding your arms in place with her hooves, sending you rolling with laughter</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the two of you go back and forth for some time until you roll up against a tree and stop, collapsing upon eachother.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;breathing heavily, sweaty, and twitching from stimulation, you both lay there for a moment enjoying your brief respite</span><br />&quot;We should probably... keep going... &quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you manage to get out from under Rainbow while getting back to your feet slowly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow nods and takes her place beside you, guiding you on the path</span><br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you've been walking for some time and before you knew it, you were both at a large clearing on a cliff overlooking Whitetail Woods.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;yoou can see Ponyville in the distance</span><br />&quot;This is... amazing.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you look out at the expanse and smile</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you turn to Dash and see a breeze run through her hair, accenting her look perfectly as she looks out past the cliff with you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash smiles and shuffles her wings</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I'm glad you like it, Anon&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you just smile and take a seat, letting the wind brush past you and looking out at the landscape beyond</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow takes a seat by you, leaning in slightly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;your sides are touching but she isn't leaning on you at the moment</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;for a few moments, you just enjoy eachother's company and the comfortable silence that comes with it</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;So, how was the meeting wiht Twi yesterday?&quot;</span><br />&quot;It was good. She convinced me to go to this 'stallions night' thing where they play poker. Didn't particularly care for it though.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash looks over slightly raising her eybrow</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;How so? I *know* you like poker. You've played with me and the girls a few times.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you shrug</span><br />&quot;It wasn't the game, it was the company. We had some... differences that were... unreconcilable.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash is staring at you now</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;ohshit.jpeg</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;do you tell her the full story?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;no, that could cause more harm than good</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you need to verify it first, no need to jump headfirst into a pool of water potentially full of jagged rocks</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;better diffuse the situation</span><br />&quot;B-besides, it's not like they could stand up to *the* Rainbow Dash. Sorry, but you've spoiled me. I'm used to a certain level of awesome now and they just didn't make the cut.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash snorts, letting out a small giggle</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Haha. Yeah, you'll have to try pretty hard to come close to *my* level of awesome.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smirk</span><br />&quot;Oh no, I've only added to your ego now. Don't get *too* full of yourself. You still can't make cookies as good as Pinkie Pie. Maybe I should start hanging out with her more often to get some of those sweet pastries she makes.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;her eyes widen and her jaw drops</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;W-wha-&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you boop her on the snout</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she scrunches her nose in response and stares at the place your finger made contact, adorably rubbing it after you retract your hand</span><br />&quot;Calm down Rainbow. I'm not gonna cut you out of my life *anytime* soon. You don't need to worry so much.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Hehe, yeah. R-right. I w-wasn't worried at all...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash looks off into the distance twiddling her hooves</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;yeahright.png</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you're not fooling anyone silly horse</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you grab her from behind and pull her into a hug</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Wha?!?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow Dash blushes and looks back at you confused</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you shake your head and squeez a bit tighter</span><br />&quot;Shhh. Just relax. I know you like it.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smirk and she snorts indignantly and turns her muzzle back to the horizon</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she doesn't move away though</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you blink, looking up at the sun making it's way towards the horizon</span><br />&quot;Wow, it's getting pretty late, huh? We should probably head back before it gets dark.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow nods, and gets up as you release your grip</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Yeah, don't want you to trip and get hurt on the path home. I know how fragile you can be.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she snickers</span><br />&quot;I fall on my face and sprain my ankle *one time* and you'll never let it down will you?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Nope&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you make your way through the forest with the remaining daylight. By the time you finally arrive at your house, the Sun has set and it's early night-time</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash always followed you home when it was late, you asked about it once and she waved it off saying something about being able to see better at night than you could anyways. This made sense enough, since horses back on Earth had pretty good night-vision as well, so you never questioned it past that.</span><br />&quot;I had a great time today, Dash. You picked a great spot for today. See you Friday?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Uh... actually, I was wondering...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash is looking down at her hooves making circles on the ground</span><br />&quot;What's up?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you face her more directly, shifting your body to give Rainbow your full attention</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow perks her ears up at the sound of your feet moving in position, looking up at you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she gulps, and takes a deep breath, exhaling slowly with her eyes closed. When she opens them, she looks at you determined, all fidgeting gone.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she looks like she's about to go to battle or something. Maybe like when you get before a big performance? Huh. What's got her so worked up?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Anon.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Yes?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;seriously, what's going on Rainbow? This is odd</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Do you want to go on a date with me Wednesday night?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you blink</span><br />&quot;Wait, you said date. But do you mean-&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;As in a r-romantic d-d-date...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow's still looking at you, but the fidgeting has returned. Her wings are shuffling nervously and her tail is twitching.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;holy shit</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she just-</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash's lips are pursed and she's breathing erratically now</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh shit, the damn pretty mare that you like is freaking out, SAY SOMETHING ANON!</span><br />&quot;I... uh...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow's earns pin back against her head and she closes her eyes, her head pointing down at the ground</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Just... get it over with already. Reject me so I can move on.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;goodjob.jpeg</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Try again Anon</span><br />&quot;No, it's not like that!&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you grab Rainbow's shoulders, she shudders at your touch, trembling</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;It's ok, Anon. I-I'll just go...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she turns to leave</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck</span><br />&quot;RAINBOW STOP!&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;she stops, trembling but halted for the moment, still turned away and in her take-off pose</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you take a deep breath, looking at Rainbow. Really looking at her you can see her beautiful mane in dissarray, her soft coat shaking from her exhertions</span><br />&quot;Yes Rainbow. I would love to go out with you on a date.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;good job idiot, could have done that the first time</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow turns to you, suspicion in her eyes</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Anon, don't play with me.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you shake your head profusely</span><br />&quot;I wouldn't do that about this. You deserve better than that.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow searches you with her eyes, on guard</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you just smile and clasp your hands together, trying to keep them from shaking</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;it doesn't work, but it helps a bit</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow notices</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash goes stock still, wide-eyed and ears perked towards you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow.exe has stopped working, reboot? y/n</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;y</span><br />&quot;Uh, are you ok Dash?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you reach out and grab her shoulder</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;You're serious?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Yes.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Y-you're n-not j-j-joking?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you shake your head and smile</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;No.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow's mouth splits into a huge smile as she flaps her wings to a hover and her tail swings rapidly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;OMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSH!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;praisethesun.png</span><br />&quot;Rainbow?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow continues her mantra and proceeds to give you the biggest hug you have ever experienced. You return the hug as you stumble, trying not to fall over from the force she put into the initial embrace.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash breaks the embrace and does a loop in the air, coming back to you with the biggest shit-eating grin you've ever seen</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;then she seems to remember her inner turmoil that you put her through and scowls, punching you hard</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;that one actually hurt</span><br />&quot;Ow!&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Plothole! Don't ever do that to me again!&quot;</span><br />&quot;I'm sorry... it was just so sudden. I... never expected it and you caught me off-&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you're interrupted by a surprise hug</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Just don't let it happen again.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;breaking the embrace, a smile adorns her pretty muzzle</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I'll come to pick you up at 7 on Wednesday. Wear something fancy.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;with that she flies away, a rainbow trail in her wake</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you collapse on the ground in front of your home</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;holy horse balls</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;what a rollercoaster</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;then you remember that you have a date with Dash on Wednesday</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;a huge smile creeps onto your face, anticipation already building inside you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;yeah, you're not getting any sleep tonight</span><br /><br />-----<br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you're standing in front of Rarity's boutique</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you've been rehearsing for this moment all day</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow wanted you to wear something fancy, so you brought the suit you tore on accident at Twilight's last formal-wear party that Rainbow invited you to</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;that ice sculpture never saw you coming</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;however, you have a secondary goal to accomplish here. You need to verify what those stallions said.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;they may have been horribly insulting and rude, but you can't let this go until you find out for sure.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;taking one last breath to collect yourself, you knock on the door</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Coming!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you hear hoofsteps approach the door and finally, the door opens to reveal a white alabaster pony</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oh, Anonymous, darling! How good to see you! Come in, come in!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smirk, she didn't skip a beat. Rarity's been clearly expecting you. Not that you would hide something like this from her.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you step inside, the familiar sight bringing back memories of the many times you've had to get clothes here</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;So, what can I do for you today?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you chuckle a bit</span><br />&quot;I think you know what you can do for me today very well already Rarity.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oh? Do I?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity has a hoof covering her muzzle and she's fluttering her lashes at you coyly</span><br />&quot;Oh, yes. After all, I think I need a whole outfit to go with that fedora I keep asking you for.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity scrunches her nose immediately, looking at you with disdain</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;NEVER! I shall not make such an atrocity to fashion!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;standing there is a huffing Rarity with her pinpricked eyes and deadly serious face</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;her knee-jerk reaction sends you into a laughing fit</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity blinks, taking a deep breath and rolls her eyes</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Yes, yes. You got me Anon. But just remember~&quot; she says while giving you a wink, &quot;you haven't won the *war*.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;coming down and recovering from your laughter, you smile and just hand her your suit</span><br />&quot;I did tear it at the last big party at Twilight's castle, you know.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity takes it in her magical glow and nods, setting it aside, giving you a smile</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I expected you'd be by soon.&quot;</span><br />&quot;I take it Dash talked to you already then?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity just smirks</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Why whatever are you talking about?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you just roll your eyes</span><br />&quot;Sure, sure. Confidential girl-talk nonsense. I gotcha.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you look over to the couch for a moment and remember your secondary mission objective</span><br />&quot;Do you mind if I sit down? I... have something I need to talk to you about.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity raises an eyebrow at that, but responds as expected</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Of course! Make yourself at home. Would you like some tea?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Sure.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I'll be right back.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;while Rarity makes her way to the kitchen to make some tea, you take your seat on the couch.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity comes back in a moment later, levitating the tea set, pouring you both some as she sits</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;So, what can I help you with Anon?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Well... it has to do with Rainbow...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Yes!?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity is hunched forward, eyes sparkling and hanging on your every word now</span><br />&quot;See, I really like her a lot. She's been a really close friend for a really long time. She's been one of the few things to keep me sane and grounded since I arrived in Equestria. And when she asked me out yesterday I was super ecstatic.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Aaaand!?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Aaaand, I obviously said yes.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity is simply beaming at that, she has the biggest goofy grin on her face right now.</span><br />&quot;But...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity recoils</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;But?&quot;</span><br />&quot;I want to confirm something with you. Do you promise to tell me the truth on this?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity blinks for a moment, collecting herself</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I'm not sure where you're going with this Anonymous, but I will be as truthful as possible with you.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you nod</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity is sipping her tea, leaned back into the couch across from you and eyeing you cautiously</span><br />&quot;You see...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;and you recount the story of the one 'stallions night' that you went to only two days ago now</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity's expression goes from neutral to angry to furious to amused once you finish up</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you decided not to hold anything back. There's no reason to anyways. You doubt Rarity would disapprove of you defending Rainbow. Maybe *how* you went about it, but...</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;anyways, you've finished your story and Rarity has been spending the past few moments in silence sipping her tea</span><br />&quot;Well?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity sighs, placing her tea on the table</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Anonymous, how do you see Rainbow Dash?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she's locked eyes with you, deadly serious</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;without missing a beat, you respond</span><br />&quot;She's absolutely beatiful and an amazing pony. A great friend and loyal to a fault. Even with her sometimes arrogant personality, I wouldn't have any other pony be with me when it really counts.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity continues to stare at you for a moment before relaxing back into the couch and picking up her tea with her magic again, taking a sip</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Then, what does it matter what a few stallions think of her?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh shit</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she's got you there</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;since when did Rarity become philosophy horse?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you'd have thought that would be Twilight's job</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;yet, here you are.</span><br />&quot;I guess... I guess, you're right Rarity. It doesn't matter. At least, not in regards to my feelings for her.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;a small smile crosses Rarity's lips as she sips her tea</span><br />&quot;That still leaves the question unanswered though. And, if for no other reason than to understand her better, I still want to know.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you fold your hands together and look Rarity in her eyes</span><br />&quot;Is Rainbow Dash unattractive?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;a moment of silence falls, Rarity's tea cup halfway to her lips, frozen in time</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;for a second, you think you might just be imagining the sudden stop, but the ticking clock in the background proves you have not lost your sanity yet</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;after what seems like an eternity, Rarity slowly places the cup down on the table</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Rainbow Dash is not... what most stallions would look for in a mate, no.&quot;</span><br />&quot;And her personality?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity just frowns and nods, her ears retracting to the back of her head</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;fuck</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;they were telling you the truth</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;ponies really did see Rainbow as the unattractive fugly girl who hung out with her hot friends</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you still can't fathom it</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;her mane is beautiful, not a disgusting array of mis-matched colors</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you shake your head</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;time to think about that later</span><br />&quot;Thank you.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you give Rarity a genuine smile</span><br />&quot;I appreciate you being so forward with me. I really can't thank you enough. I promise I'll do my best to treat Rainbow right.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity give you a smil in return</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I know you will Anon.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the two of you share the moment in silence for a bit longer until you look over at the clock</span><br />&quot;Oh shit, it's already 10pm? I'm sorry Rarity. I talked your ear off. I should get going.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oh, not at all dear. Don't you worry about it. Glad to help a friend in need.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you get up and head towards the door</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;stopping, you turn around</span><br />&quot;Thank you again. When will the suit be ready?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity smiles and waves in your direction</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Like I said, it's nothing, really. I'll have the suit ready by tomorrow. Just drop by after you get off work.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you nod and turn to head out the door</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;And Anon?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you stop</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Don't forget to get Rainbow something nice for Wednesday. A nice bouquet of flowers, perhaps? I hear she likes morning glory's...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smirk</span><br />&quot;Thanks Rarity, will do.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;with that, you head out of Rarity's boutique</span><br /><br />-----<br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;straightening your tie, you take one last look in the mirror</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;your suit was in pristine condition, thanks to Rarity. Your hair was freshly cut and all of the other misc things you needed were in order. You even got a bottle of cologne that smelled pretty good from a store in Canterlot.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the trip there and back was a pain in the ass, but it was worth it</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you had even gotten some nice ruby cufflinks to go with your navy blue suit</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity had suggested them to match with Rainbow's colors</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh, and of course your suit was a three piece ensemble</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity insisted on wearing the whole thing, not just the coat and pants</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you really had gone all-out for this</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;thankfully, you had convinced Rarity that you don't look all that great bespeckled in gemstones</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;with some moaning and groaning, she had finally relented, but your tie still had some small rubies accenting the saphire blue base color and the subtle criss-crossing light blue lines</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;all in all, you looked the part of a *very* well-off gentleman</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;even if you thought it was just a *bit* too much</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you can only imagine what she did to Dash</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she's sure to have taken her for the whole day today to get her ready</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity seemed almost as excited as you were for today, maybe even more-so...</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;a knocking sounds at the door</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;snapping out of your thoughts, you grab the bouquet of morning glories and head to the door, doing a last minute breath check on the way</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;as you reach the door, you stop and take a big, calming breath</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;just don't fuck this up</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you open the door</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Uh, hi...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow dash stands there, wearing a slim blue dress with gold slippers on her hooves. It folds under her wings perfectly, accenting her already slim, lean figure. It's just a few shades darker than her coat color and is accented with a gold clasp holding it together.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;her muzzle...</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;holy shit, she's got makeup on</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;and it's highlighting her features perfectly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;not too much and not too little</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;her coat seems to glisten in the light</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;her mane and tail are straighened out and look silky smooth, only the front part of her mane still looks a bit styled how it normally is, but it seems more practed and meticulously placed than normal</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;but even beyond all of that, those eyes that look up to you, they're shining with hope and anticipation. Her mouth is stretched into a barely contained smile.</span><br />&quot;Rainbow...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;if you thought Rainbow was pretty before, holy shit does she clean up good!</span><br />&quot;You look amazing.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow blushes and looks down</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Y-you too.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you both stand there for a few moments, Rainbow pawing at the ground with her hoof and you with your mouth open and taking in the sight before you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh shit, don't just stand there drooling you idiot!</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;give her the flowers!</span><br />&quot;Uh... I got you these.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you present her the bouquet of flowers.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;her eyes go wide as she looks at the flowers</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Are these morning glories!?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she can't keep the excitement out of her voice and she takes them gingerly out of your hand</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;B-but how? I never mentioned them to you at all...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow blushes a bit and turns her head away slightly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you chuckle</span><br />&quot;Do you really have to ask?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Hehe, yeah, I guess not... Thank you.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow gently smiles up at you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;a few moments pass in comfortable silence</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow blinks and shakes her head slightly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Right. So, we should probably get going. We've got a reservation at seven thirty.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you nod, smiling</span><br />&quot;So, where are we going anyways?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash smirks, glancing at you sideways</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;You'll see when we get there.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Awww! C'mon! Just a hint? Pleeeaase?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow giggles</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Noooo~&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she flutters her wings and starts trotting towards the town</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;worth a shot</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you quickly catch up to her and walk beside her</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;as you walk, you notice Rainbow's going at a slower pace than normal</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;intrigued, you look over</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow has a bright smile and she's got a light saunter</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh my lord</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;that saunter is just tempting you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you feel a heat rising in your nethers but look forward again, forcing yourself to think of things other than the sexy mare beside you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;like what kind of place she could be taking you to</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow isn't one for fancy</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;if you had to guess, this wouldn't have been her first choice</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;which makes you wonder, why?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;do you not know Rainbow as well as you thought you did?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;no, you're pretty sure you'd pick up on something like this over the time you've been together as friends. You've known eachother for too long to miss something like this.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;but maybe...</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rarity</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;yup, you're pretty sure that Rarity had something to do with the choice in venue</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;it would make a lot more sense than Rainbow having a super secret love for the high society life</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;then again, you didn't know that other ponies saw Rainbow as ugly until just a few days ago...</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;but that's from another pony's prospective, not an aspect of Rainbow's personality</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you've known she can be shy about things at times but you always thought it was just her not-so-secret humble part behind all the bravado</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;your internal musings are interrupted as you arrive at the restaurant</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;'The Savory Rose'</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;wow</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she really pulled out all the stops for this date</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you've heard this is *the* spot for visiting nobles</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you look over and Rainbow is nervously holding the door for you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you find this a bit odd, but smile and walk in</span><br />&quot;Thank you.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow perks up and quickly follows you inside</span><br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;a tuxedo wearing stallion greets you as you enter</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Name?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Rainbow Dash.&quot; Rainbow replies</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the stallion checks his clipboard and marks off something</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Ah yes, right this way Ms. Dash.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the stallion leads you through the restaurant as you admire the plush red carpet and crystal chandeliers.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;tables are sparsely arranged around the room with ponies dressed in fancy dresses and suits enjoying their meals</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;your attention is brought back to the stallion as he continues down a hallway away from the dining room</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;uhh</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;what's going on?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh no, they didn't give her the shit table did they!?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;ohfuckno.png</span><br />&quot;Exc-&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;just as you are about to say something, the stallion opens a pair of large double doors and steps aside, motioning for you to enter</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you look to Rainbow and she just nods to you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you take the hint and enter first, a bit apprehensive due to your fears that they fucked Rainbow over</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you stop mid-thought and stand still, eyes wide as you take in your surroundings</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;holyshit.jpeg</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;they didn't fuck Rainbow over</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;they gave her the fucking Princess suite!</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the room is a large room with a single table in the center with two chairs</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the room itself is amazing, it's a near perfect replica of a forest clearing under the night sky</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;small ambient lights shine down illuminating the room, accenting the plush green carpet and blue coushioned chairs</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;light classical music can be heard from a distance, but you're unable to identify the source</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;still in shock, you just stare in wonderment as Rainbow smirks up at you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;What? Never been to a fancy restaurant before?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you turn to her and blink</span><br />&quot;This isn't fancy, Rainbow.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow's muzzle scrunches up indignantly</span><br />&quot;This is *beyond* fancy.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow snickers and nudges you forward</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;C'mon, let's go ya goof.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;smiling down at her you walk towards the table</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you reach out to pull a chair out for Rainbow but it seems she's beaten you to it and is hovering, looking at you expectantly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you shake your head and sit down in the offered chair</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;silly Dash, that was supposed to be your job</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow flies over and takes her own seat as the stallion from earlier trots up to your table with a bottle of wine</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the stallion fills both your glasses and places the bottle in the icebucket</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;The food will be out in just a moment. Please enjoy.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;as the stallion leaves you swirl the wine around in the glass, taking a sip</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh, that's good wine</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you look across the table at your date, seeing a fidgety mare playing with her hooves as she glances at you shyly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh lord, this mare</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;too cute</span><br />&quot;Soo, I see you picked a really nice place here...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow perks up, smiling</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;You like it?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you raise an eyebrow at that, a smirk on your face</span><br />&quot;Rainbow, you clearly went above and beyond for this. Anyone who wasn't impressed by this would be a fool.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;T-thanks.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Besides..&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you take a moment to look Rainbow over, studying the way the dress hugs her body and how her fur glistens in the dim light, before looking into her eyes, enraptured by their beauty</span><br />&quot;I wouldn't want to be here with anyone else. You look absolutely beautiful tonight.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow blushes her wings rise up a bit in response, but she's quick to force them back down</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Y-you look really nice t-too.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;blushing a bit, you cough in your hand</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you look up to see the waiter coming back with your food</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;he places your food in front of you and removes the cover</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;If you need anything, feel free to ring the bell. I will assist you with whatever you need.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you don't even notice the waiter leave</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you're too engrossed at the sight before you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;right there, before your very eyes, is a beautiful cut of steak, cooked to perfection, juices still running down it's side with a side of potatoes and gravy</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;holy fuck</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;it's been far too long</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you stop your drooling as you hear snickering from across the table</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow is snickering into her hoof, watching you with amusement</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Well, are you gonna eat it or are you gonna sit and stare at it like an idiot?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;that laugh</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh man, that heavenly sound sends you into glee</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;smiling you laugh a bit</span><br />&quot;Yeah, yeah. I'll get to it then.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you take the fork and knife and dig into it, taking your first bite</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh celestia how you missed this feeling</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the sweet tender meat quickly finds it's way to your stomach and you let out a moan of pleasure</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Heh, that good, huh?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow is looking over at you, her own plate of food already having a decent sized dent in it</span><br />&quot;You have no idea...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow smirks</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh wait</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;this is a date you dummy</span><br />&quot;So, um...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Yeah?&quot;</span><br />&quot;I *really* like you Rainbow, but... I guess I'm just a bit out of my element here. I mean, we're already pretty close. I just don't know where to start I guess?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow nods, taking a drink from her glass</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I guess you could start by telling me about your day?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she looks up to you hopefully</span><br />&quot;Sure, that works as good as anything I guess.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you laugh, the obsurdity that you've forgotten how to go on a simple date adding to the fuel</span><br />&quot;My day was fine, I suppose. Mostly working as usual. Filthy Rich had this huge shipment of...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;as the night wore on, you graduated from light conversation to banter to talking about your future goals. The time passed without notice, your attention fully stolen by the mare in front of you.</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;...and I think that I'd like to start up a mini flight training camp for some of the fillies in Ponyville. Flight school doesn't have a branch here and I have enough free time with my job.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smile</span><br />&quot;I think that's great, Rainbow. How would you get it going though? Do you have to be qualified or something to be an instructor for foals?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow nods</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Yeah, but I have most of the qualifications already with my weather captain position. I'd just need to take a few specialized courses in dealing with foals since you gotta treat them different than a grown pony.&quot;</span><br />&quot;That makes sense. It's the same sort of thing back on Earth. Most people dealing with children in their jobs had to have some sort of professional training on the subject. Some more than others, but I digress.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you bring your glass to your lips only to see it's empty</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the bottle lies in the bucket, empty as well</span><br />&quot;Damn.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Hmmm?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow follows your eyes to the bottle and clicks her tongue</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;That was good stuff. I can't believe we went through that this fast.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you nod in agreement</span><br />&quot;Should we head out then? If it's still early, we can grab a drink at the bar?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow perks up in excitement, a grin forming on her muzzle</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Sure, let's go!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;chuckling to yourself you follow the excited mare out of the restaraunt into the cool night air</span><br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the two of you arrive at 'The Salt Lick'</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the name amuzed you when you first arrived, but then you learned salt is actually part of the drinks</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you've had to inform the bartender not to add salt to your drinks</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you will never forget the day you let Dash order for you and she got you a straight salt cube</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the deadpan you gave her echoed throughout the entire bar</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;as you enter, you notice the crowd is more than you expected on a Wednesday</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;there were a good ten to twenty ponies here</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you both get a drink from the bar and head to a booth off to the side</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;though, you wanted to start up the conversation with a question that's been bugging you a bit</span><br />&quot;So, Rainbow, is it common for mares to ask the stallion out?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow nods</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;It is. But it's also pretty common that the stallion asks out a mare too. Why? Didn't mares ask stallions out where you came from?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Yeah, but it was very uncommon. Generally the guy asks the girl out and then pays for the dinner or whatever they end up doing.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;How come the stallions gotta do all the work?&quot; Rainbow asks, &quot;Here, whoever asks usually pays. Outside of that, it's pretty equal once you get into an actual relationship.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;that gets a good laugh out of you</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;stallions doing all the work indeed!</span><br />&quot;I have no idea. It's a cultural thing that's been in place since before my time. I would guess that it stems from when women were seen as property but how that snowballed into what it is today, I have no idea.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you shrug</span><br />&quot;I like the way you do it better though, seems more like you're both going into it as equals.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow snorts</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;You're just happy you didn't have to pay for dinner.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you chuckle</span><br />&quot;You know it. I know you said dress for fancy, but that place was *suuuuper* fancy! I'm not even sure if I could afford a dinner like that! But I guess being an Element of Harmony has it's perks, right?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you nudge Rainbow playfully</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Actually... that only was good enough to get me a reservation on short notice. I still had to pay for it. I don't get things for free just for who I am.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;that was a bit sobering</span><br />&quot;I'm sorry Rainbow, I didn't mean it like that.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow's eyes widen a bit</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;No! I'm not mad or anything. I just didn't want you to think I was pulling any special favors or anything.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;that brought a bit of a smile to your face as you sigh in relief</span><br />&quot;That's good. I was scared I upset you for a minute there. This is... relatively new territory for me. Even *if* we've been hanging out for over two years now.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you scratch the back of your head and look off to the side for a moment</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow blushes and fiddles with her hooves a bit</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;W-well, you're doing fine. I'm really enjoying myself.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;as you turn your head back to face her, she's looking up at you with hopeful eyes</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smile and grab her hoof, stroking it lightly with your fingers</span><br />&quot;I'm enjoying myself too. I'm just a bit nervous since, well, I kinda want this to work out. You're... you're amazing Rainbow Dash. I love your sense of humor, I always have fun when we go out together, you've never given up on me or let me down, and you're beautiful to top it off. You're more than I could have ever asked for Rainbow.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you're holding both her hooves at this point, having grabbed the other one in the middle of your impromptu speach</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow is looking up at you, her eyes a bit watery and her lip quivering slightly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Y-you r-really m-m-mean t-that?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Yes. I really, really do.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smile, rubbing her hooves a bit to emphasize your point</span><br />&quot;Unf-&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow is suddenly in your lap, hugging you tightly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you look down and hug her back, resting your chin on her head</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;after what seems like a few hours, the music starts to kick up a notch</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow's ears perk up and she seperates herself from your embrace just enough to look over at the dance floor</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oh yeah! That's my jam!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she turns to you with a grin</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;C'mon Anon! Let's go dance!&quot;</span><br />&quot;Rainbow, I'm not that-&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;unable to finish your sentence, Rainbow drags you to the dance floor</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the things you do for this mare</span><br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you had no idea Dash could move like that</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;and the way she-</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;a shudder runs through your body as you think about it</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;to say you were 'excited' to be her dance partner was an understatement</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the two of you were walking home after your fun at the bar</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow was walking closely alongside you, rubbing up against you occassionally</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;not that you minded, it was kinda nice</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you were both fairly tipsy as well</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;but you're pretty sure it was intentional, she wasn't wasted</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;yet</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you even got your hand on her back as you walked</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;supersmoothmoves.exe</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow's grin grew and she started swaying her hips a bit more as you did that, so you guessed that was a good sign</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;as you reach your door, Rainbow is hovering at about eye level</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Sooo...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow is fidgeting again</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smile</span><br />&quot;I had a great time tonight Rainbow.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Y-yeah... ummm...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;[fidgeting intensifies]</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you grab her and pull her into a chaste kiss, holding her head gently as you balance her body with your other hand</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow's eyes go wide, but droop as she leans into the kiss, your lips pressing tightly together</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;your eyes are closed and you can smell Rainbow's sweet scent mixed with some perfume that smells like lilacs</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;pulling away, you smile as you see Rainbow's dopey grin</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;one more couldn't hurt...</span><br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;one heavy make-out session later, and you're both a bit flushed</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;panting a bit, you look up at the sky and notice the moon</span><br />&quot;Damn, it's getting late.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you still had work in the morning after all</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow rests against you, nodding</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Mmmhmmm&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you look down and smile as you see Rainbow in your arms with your back up against the door</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;then you smell the alcohol</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh, that's right</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you were both pretty tipsy when you left the bar</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;best to play it safe then</span><br />&quot;Hey, Dash. Wanna stay the night? You look kinda tipsy and I don't imagine flying home would be very fun right now.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Uh, suure...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Dash says looking a bit nervous</span><br />&quot;If you don't want to-&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;N-no! It's fine! Totally fine!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;it was clearly not fine</span><br />&quot;Dash, please. If this makes you uncomfortable, you don't have to. Really. Don't worry about it. It's not a big deal if you turn me down on this. I wouldn't be offering if we were less close than we already are.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smirk, trying to aleviate some of her fear</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;gulping, she nods</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Y-you're right. W-we are pretty close...&quot;</span><br />&quot;Exactly, so don't worry about it if-&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I'll stay.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow is looking at you determined</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you know that look</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she's made up her mind</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;and you'd have a better chance of convincing Twilight that burning books is a good idea than you would changing Rainbow's mind once she's determined to do something</span><br />&quot;Alright. If you're sure...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;doesn't mean you can't try to give her an out just in case</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I'm sure.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;welp, looks like she's not taking that out then</span><br />&quot;Alright, let's head inside then.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow smiles, following you closely inside</span><br />&quot;Do you need anything?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow looks at you confused</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Uh... no?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you shrug it off</span><br />&quot;Alright then.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you make your way into your bedroom, kicking off your shoes and taking off your jacket and tie</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you also hear hooves hitting the ground</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;in your bedroom</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;wut</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you turn and Rainbow is standing there</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you blink and take a seat on your bed as you process this</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;ok, you might be a bit drunk 'cause you're having trouble figuring this out</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow just blushes as she saunters over, climbing up into your lap, pushing you down against the bed</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oooooohhhh</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;this wasn't what you meant, but this is a good thing</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;....right?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow is nervously looking down and fidgeting with your shirt, trying to unbutton it</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;it's kinda cute in a way</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;then you notice it's not just her usual nervous fidget of excitement</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;her body is trembling a bit</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;in fear</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh no</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;nonononono</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you grab her hooves and just hold them there</span><br />&quot;Rainbow...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;she looks up at you and gives you a shaky smile</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;D-don't w-worry. I-I'll be s-s-s-ure to-&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you stop her by hugging her closely to your chest</span><br />&quot;Shhhh. I'm sorry Rainbow. I... I messed up.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;W-what? N-NO! It's not like that! I'm alright! If it's y-you...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you shake your head and carress her cheek</span><br />&quot;No, Rainbow. I- ugh.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you rub a hand down your face</span><br />&quot;I was stupid. I wasn't thinking and offered you to stay because you were kinda drunk. I honestly wasn't thinking about this at all. I just figured you could stay over like usual.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow blinks</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Like usual... you mean like on movie nights?&quot;</span><br />&quot;Yeah...&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you look off to the side, embarassed</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;of course she'd take it this way!</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;no wonder she was nervous before, you were on a date idiot</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;hearing the sound of snickering, you look back to see Rainbow barely containing herself from bursting out with laughter</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you snort which sends you both rolling on your backs laughing aloud</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;after several minutes, you calm down enough to speak</span><br />&quot;Sorry.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow snorts and punches you lightly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Dork.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;smirking, she scoots up and snuggles your arm</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;But if you think I'm sleeping on the couch you're out of your bucking mind.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;laughing, you nod</span><br />&quot;I am *very* ok with this.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;You would be, you dork.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you just smile and grab her with your arms, scooting yourself onto the bed properly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;some readjustment and you're both cuddling on the bed in a comfortable position</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow rubs her head against your chest and settles further into your body, drifting off to sleep</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you spend the remaining waking moments watching her chest rise and fall, running a free hand through her soft mane</span><br /><br />-----<br /><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the sound of running water reaches your ears as the sun peaks in through the blindfolds</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;closing your eyes tighter you pull up the covers in an attempt to return to your blissful sleep</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;alarm.mp3</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;fuck</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you groan and stretch, pressing the snooze on your alarm clock</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you slowly open your eyes and stare at the ceiling, confirming once again, it is a ceiling</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;the sound of water stops, replaced by a soft pitter-patter of hooves on the floor somewhere</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;rubbing your face, you sit up, adjusting back to the horrible reality of wakefulness before coffee</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;getting up, you move to correct that reality</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;as you reach the kitchen, you open the cabinet to grab the coffee beans. Pulling out the carafe, you notice it's full of fresh coffee already</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;what wizardry is this?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;shrugging, you pour yourself a cup</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;sipping on the blessed nectar of the gods, you sigh with pleasure</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;as you slowly return to the world of the living, the events of last night play themselves back in your head</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow walks in at that moment, her hair still wet with a towel draped across her back</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Unf-</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Hey, Anon. Good morning.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow smiles at you while rubbing her hair dry</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you don't say anything, you can't think of any words right now honestly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you get up, placing the coffee down and walk over to her, a smile stretching on your face</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;lowering yourself to one knee, you grasp Rainbow's cheeks gently and pull her muzzle to your face, pressing your lips against hers</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;dropping the towel, Rainbow deepens the kiss, putting her hooves behind your head</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;after several long seconds of this, you finally relent, pulling away</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow and you are both breathing heavily, foreheads pressed together as you stare into eachother's eyes</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smile and pull her body close to yours, maintaining eye contact</span><br />&quot;Morning, Dash.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;giggling, Rainbow pecks you on the lips before nuzzling your neck</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;If this is how you greet a mare when you wake up, I might have to come over more often.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you chuckle, grinning widely</span><br />&quot;You're welcome over anytime.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;snorting, Rainbow releases herself from your grasp</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;I might have to take you up on that. But for now, I still have work to go to.&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;nodding, you get up and go to the coffee carafe</span><br />&quot;Coffee before you go?&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow glances at the clock, nodding</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Yeah... I can do a cup of coffee before I go. But then I gotta run.&quot;</span><br />&quot;Right. No worries. I have work today too so that would probably be best.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;chuckling lightly, you pour Rainbow a cup of coffee and join her at the table with your own cup</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you both drink in comfortable silence for a moment, simply enjoying the moment</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you reach out with your free hand and grab Rainbow's outsretched hoof, running your fingers over her soft fur as you look into her beautiful magenta orbs</span><br />&quot;I had a really great time last night. I... I'm *really* happy that you asked me out.&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;you smile and squeeze her hoof for emphasis</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Anon...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow returns your smile with a gentle smile of her own</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;You have no idea how much it means to me to hear you say that...&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;tears are streaming down Rainbow's cheeks</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;ohno.png</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;oh wait</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;are those... tears of joy?</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;yes, yes they are</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;she's smiling and practically glowing with affection for you with watery eyes</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you pull her in for a hug, which is returned whole-heartedly</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you just stay there, holding her tight to your chest as she sqeezes you tightly in response</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;pulling back she looks at the clock</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;Oh horseapples! I'm gonna be late!&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow downs her coffee and slams the cup on the table</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;stopping herself as she's already halfway out the door, she flies back and pulls you into a deep passionate kiss</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;you barely have enough time to kiss her back as she seperates, and looks to you with half-lidded eyes</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;&quot;So, Friday?&quot;</span><br /><span class="co4">&gt;smiling, you run a hand through her hair</span><br />&quot;Friday&quot;<br /><span class="co4">&gt;Rainbow pecks you on the lips one last time and flies out the door, leaving a rainbow trail in her wake</span></div></div>
