I awoke the next morning, feeling a great weight on my chest and stomach. I slowly opened my eyes and blinked the sleepiness out to see the cyan mare peacefully asleep, still laying on top of me. I smiled at her innocent face as she slept. It was unbelievably adorable.

I looked around and realized that we were also still laying on the floor.

Well I guess that explains why I don't remember going to bed last night.

Last night. The greatest night of my life. So glad I listened to Spark on that one. I can't believe I ever doubted it. I mean, it's a totally normal function for every mammal. It's not any different now that I'm the same species. Totally normal.

My heart suddenly dropped into my stomach when I realized what this meant.

I probably just made Rainbow Dash pregnant. Pregnant. I'm going to be a father. How am I supposed to raise a foal? I could barely keep a hamster without it dying when I was human. How will this work out?

I looked back down to Rainbow Dash. Feeling her soft, warm breaths radiate onto my chest made me smile.

It doesn't matter. I won't worry about it yet. I still have this life to take care of, and I won't let a new responsibility keep me from enjoying it.

I stretched and felt Dash stir on top of me. I looked down to see her eyelids slowly flutter open to reveal her large magenta eyes.

"Morning, Sunshine." I said to her.

She smiled and gave me a quick kiss. "Morning, Flash." She put her hooves on the ground around me and stood over me, stretching for an unnecessarily long amount of time.

"You okay there?" I asked as she started to stretch out her wings.

"Yeah, you're just not the comfiest pillow in the world." She said.

"And what's that supposed to mean?"

"It means that sleeping in a cloud bed would've been WAY better than laying on you all night." She said.

"Well, you could have gone into the bed, you know. I wouldn't have cared."

"Nah." She said. "I was too lazy to move. And I felt a lot safer in your arms than I would have under the covers."

She really knew how to make me feel good about myself.

"And besides." She leaned down until she was a couple inches from my face. "You poking my belly was a pleasant surprise to wake up to."

I was confused at first, until I looked down and saw that I had the largest case of morning wood of my entire life.

I looked up at her and laughed awkwardly. "Yeah, uh, sorry about that."

She kissed me one last time and started walking away toward the door. She flicked me with her tail again, a smile forming across her face as she walked out of the bedroom and into the hall.

I smiled as well and slowly got to my feet and yawned. I stretched out my wings and popped my back. The ground isn't exactly the most comfortable place to sleep, even in a cloud house. I could only imagine how uncomfortable Dash was.

I walked out of the bedroom with a smile and a bit of a pep in my step. I didn't know why, but it seemed like today was going to be a good day. Of course, any day in Equestria was good, but this one seemed different, like it was going to be even better than the others. I continued walking down the hall with the same mood and arrived in the living room to see Dash standing in the kitchen eating an apple.

"Got any more of those?" I asked. She responded by reaching into the cabinet and tossing a red, juicy apple to me.

I caught it and took a large bite of the fruit.

"So what's on the agenda today?" Dash asked me.

"Well, I was planning on going into town and getting some stuff, then go visit Spark and Blaze and see how they're doing." I said. "Unless you wanna do something?" I asked hopefully.

She finished her apple and chuckled. "Sorry, big guy, but I made plans too." She walked over to me. "Although, later tonight we could maybe have a repeat of last night." She put her hoof under my chin and looked me straight in the eye. "If you want to."

The combination of her seductive voice and large alluring eyes was irresistible. "Count me in." I smiled. She smiled back and leaned in for a kiss. Our lips found each other as if it was instinct by now, and we held the kiss for a few long moments. Dash was the first one to snap back to reality and pull away.

"Until then, we should probably get to the weather building to clear the sky." She said.

"Good idea." I said, taking another bite of my apple. "What time is it anyway?"

Dash looked over her shoulder at the clock. Her eyes suddenly widened.

"We have two minutes to get there!"

"WHAT???" I spit out the piece of apple in my mouth and we both sped out the door into the gray sky.

"How did we sleep so late?" I asked as we soared through Ponyville to the weather building.

"I don't know!" Dash said. "But it doesn't matter. As long as we get there in time, we'll be alright!"

I looked at her the entire time she spoke, and when I looked in front of me, I saw two pegasi holding a large glass pane.

"Look out!" I yelled, and smashed completely through the glass, shattering it to bits. I stopped a few feet away and looked at the two ponies as the shattered glass sprinkled down to the town below.

"Are you kidding me? What are the odds? How cliche can you get? How-"

"Flash, come on!" I was jerked away when Rainbow Dash suddenly grabbed me by the arm and started dragging me through the sky. She let go of me and we continued on our way to the weather building.

"We're going to be so late!" Dash said as she increased her speed through the cloudy sky. I followed close behind.

"No we won't. We're almost there, see?" I pointed to the weather building in the distance. We sped up even more as we raced to be on time.

As we grew closer and closer to the building, I started slowing down, while Rainbow Dash never once decelerated.

"Dash? You might want to-" I couldn't even finish my sentence before I witnessed her painfully crash land in the courtyard. "Slow down..."

I quickly landed and galloped over to Dash, who was laying in a bush with concerned pegasi surrounding her. I pushed through the ponies and looked down at Dash. She was laying upside down on the bush, looking up at me with dazed eyes. "Whoops." Was all she had to say.

I sighed. "Are you alright?"

"Yeah." She turned over and fell to the ground with a small thud. "No." She looked back and attempted to move her left wing with no success. "I think I sprained my wing."

"Oh man. Does it hurt?" I asked.

"I sprained it, of course it hurts, egghead." Dash snapped, and got to her feet. She tried once more to move her wing, but cringed in pain. "Agh. I don't think I'll be able to fly." She looked at me. "Do you think you and Mira will be able to handle clearing the sky on your own?"

"Uh, yeah. No problem." I said.

Crap! Now I'll have to deal with Mira the whole time!

Bright Light walked over to us and looked at Dash. She just shook her head. "Rainbow Dash, what could you have possibly done this time?"

"I, uh, forgot to slow down before I landed." She said with a nervous laugh.

Bright Light sighed and looked to me. "Well, looks like you got a lot of work ahead of you. Now both of your partners are out for the day. Rainbow Dash is hurt and Mira never showed up. You'll have to clear your part of the sky on your own.

My jaw dropped.

That's even worse than dealing with Mira!

"Can't he join another weather team for the day or something?" Dash asked. "That sounds like a little bit too much for one pony.

"Sorry." Bright Light said. "I really wish you could, but regulations restrict you from doing that. You can, however, ask other teams for help. That's the most I can do for you. You'll be able to handle it, right?"

"Easy." I said a little sarcastically. Bright Light looked at me with a concerned expression, then walked to the middle of the courtyard.

"Attention, everypony! It's time to start clearing the sky again. Again, I don't care what you clean up as long as the job gets done. However, White Flash's weather team is either currently not here or-" She glared at Dash. "-unfit for duty. If anypony is willing to help him, it would be greatly appreciated. Alright, ponies. Get to it!"

Immediately, the groups of pegasi all took off into the sky to start clearing it, but none stayed to help me.

"Great." I said. "Just wonderful."

Rainbow Dash walked up to me and put her hoof on my shoulder. "Ah, come on. It won't be that bad. I'll walk below you and keep you company if you want."

"Oh, actually, Rainbow Dash." We turned to see Bright Light walking up to us. "Since you can't clear the sky, I've been needing help filing some paperwork. Care to join?"

Of course. Why not ruin my day some more?

"But, I was going to-" Dash started.

"I'll pay you for it." Was all Bright Light had to say to convince her.

Dash turned to me and mouthed the word 'sorry'. I returned with a disapproving frown. She walked over to Bright Light. "Where do we start?"

Bright Light smiled. "I knew you'd want to help." She turned to me. "Sorry again about your situation."

"Yeah." I said. "Thanks."

Dash and Bright Light started walking into the weather building, leaving me alone in the courtyard.

Well, better get started I guess.

I sighed.

And this day was going so well, too.
