Love is Strange chapter six: Enchanting Times

It had been nearly a month since that party fiasco. (y/n) was happier than ever. She didn't care what the passing ponies thought of her and Dash. She only cared about what Dash thought, as did Dash. They had had dates every week, getting closer with every passing second. They loved each other, this is true. Rainbow Dash loved how (Y/n)'s eyes sparkled when she thought something was fascinating or awesome. Rainbow Dash loved the times where they just cuddled together, the times always enchanting. Today they were going to dinner together. Rainbow Dash had booked two spots for them at Flour's Divine Dinners. (y/n) thought it was sweet that Rainbow Dash had paid for them both, of course Rainbow was only being nice for the one she loved. With the two lovers Rarity was helping them get brushed up, in different rooms. With Rainbow Dash, Rarity put Rainbow's mane and tail into a thick braid with her bangs covering her right eye. "Are you sure I have to wear this?" Rainbow asked Rarity. "Of course, darling, it's only essential! You're going to the most fanciest restaurant in Ponyville," Rarity said. It was true. Rainbow Dash was going to the fanciest restaurant in Ponyville with her awesome marefriend. Rainbow puffed her cheeks out and blew air out. "Fine," Rainbow groaned. Rarity rushed out of the room and into the room where (y/n) was. Rarity started to brush (y/n)'s mane and tail. Once she was done she put it into an elaborate braid design, much like Cadence's mane without the crystals, when they met Ms. Harshwhinney. (y/n)'s tail was just thickly braided and put into a bun. "There you look perfect, darling!" Rarity told (y/n). "My mane is itchy, what did you put in it?" (y/n) asked, trying not to scratch at her mane. "Oh yes! I put some mane spray in there, it's supposed to be itchy," Rarity said. "Well, it's annoying!" (y/n) complained. "Well, yes. Beauty comes with a price, darling," Rarity said. "Now go on, darling, show Rainbow Dash your radiance!" Rarity said, nudging (y/n) out of her room and into the one Rainbow Dash was in. Rainbow's mouth dropped open when she saw (y/n). She quickly closed her mouth and tried to talk, but nothing but a squeak came from Rainbow's mouth. "You look beautiful," (y/n) told Rainbow, blushing a little. Rainbow blushed. "So do you," Rainbow managed to squeak out. "Thanks," they said at the same time. Rarity was delighted. Her hard work made them stumble and gawk at each other, just what she wanted to happen. The two love struck mares walked out of Carousel Boutique walking to Flour's Divine Dinners.

Rainbow and (y/n) were sitting at a table in Flour's Divine Dinners. Rainbow telling (y/n) about her past for the millionth time, but (y/n) didn't mind she liked hearing Rainbow's voice, it reminded her of how thankful she was to bump into the rainbow maned mare. They both ordered daisy sandwiches with a salad on the side. The cooks sure were quick and so were the waiters or that's what Rainbow Dash thought because their dinners were there in seconds. They started to eat, happy to fill their bellies with something. They talked about how much they loved each other and they didn't pay any mind to the stares they were getting. After being well fed. Rainbow was taking (y/n) home, when she heard music, soft music. She remembered Octavia telling her about the show she was having tonight. Maybe we can get lucky, Rainbow thought. "(Y/n), do you wanna go listen to some music with me?" Rainbow asked. "That would be nice actually," (y/n) said, smiling at Rainbow. Rainbow's heart melted when (y/n) smiled. Rainbow led (y/n) to the concert, lucky enough to buy two tickets and get in. They sat in the front of the crowd. The music started and it was lovely and slow. By the end of it all, (y/n) was cuddled up next to Rainbow, her head on Rainbow's shoulder. Rainbow chuckled and carried (y/n) home. Rainbow laid her marefriend onto her bed and kissed her on the forehead. Leaving a note with the words, I had a great time and I love you, Rainbow left the house and went to hers.

This is sooo sweet. I absolutely loved it even if it does seem a little rushed.
