Chapter 40: Take your Pinkie Pie to work day Part 2-Work ethic

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

Pinkie observed in awe as Rainbow Dash busted cloud after cloud. Though Rainbow Dash would usually take a more reckless approach, adding acrobatics to her work, she performed with a certain presence of care and grace on this day. She performed as such for one reason; to keep Pinkie Pie safely by her side.

Despite her love for speed and aerial acrobatics, Rainbow Dash enjoyed working more carefully. Not for trying something different, but for Pinkie Pie. Just knowing the mare she loved was around could make even the most monotonous of tasks more enjoyable. The element of security that Rainbow Dash knew she was providing for Pinkie Pie only fuelled her enjoyment.

"Dashie, Why do you think I couldn't bust clouds. I was reeealy looking forward to helping you?" Pinkie Pie frowned slightly, disappointed in herself.

"Don't worry about that, Pinkie. It's awesome having you up here all the same. I don't know, ask Twilight," replied Rainbow Dash.

"Is it hard work?"

"Yeah. I guess so. One cloud alone is easy, but a full sky is a little more difficult. Just a good thing I'm awesome enough to do it.

What is this I'm feeling? Just watching her work is.....I don't know, thought Pinkie Pie. There's something I'm feeling that I've felt for somepony before. It's the reason I fell for....Oh no. "So are you still up for tomorrow?"

"Huh? Oh the date, sure Pinkie, wouldn't miss it for all of Equestria."

Pinkie Pie was nervous. She had taken a liking towards Rainbow Dash's strong work ethic already. The exact same reason she fell for Applejack. Though the majority of her mind and soul knew against it, there was that little kernel of doubt embedded in her mind, telling her that their relationship would share the same fate. Surely the element of loyalty would never see any harm, either physical or emotional come to her. Right?

"So where is it we're going exactly?"

Pinkie Pie missed this question, being to deep in her own thought to focus.

"Equestria to Pinkie Pie. Come in," said Rainbow Dash.

"Sorry, Dashie, what did you say?"

"I asked where we were going tomorrow."

Pinkie Pie scanned the sky, before moving closer to Rainbow Dash. "It's a secret," she whispered loudly.

"So I guess it's a 'wait and see' thing."

"Nope. I'm going to blindfold you and carry you, then un-blindfold you when we get there. Then you will see it, but where it is will be super duper Pinkie secret.

"You can't carry me Pinkie. Pegasi don't like being carried."

"Ok, howsabout this. I put you on a lead, blindfold you, then take you there. That way I won't be carrying you."

Sounds great, thought Rainbow Dash, regarding a totally different interpretation of what Pinkie Pie just said. "No thanks, Pinkie."

"aww but I think you'd look awesomazingly adorable being totally dependant on me.

And maybe you could also punish me if I step out of line. "No, Pinkie. I'm too awesome to be totally dependant on anypony."

"That's not what your thinking," Pinkie replied in a sing song voice.

"What do you mean?"

"well, blind folds, leashes. I know what's going on up there. I can tell."

Rainbow Dash blushed intensely. "How can you tell?"

"Your wings look a little stiff."

"Oh....right." Stupid wings.

"Oh silly Dashie.I don't mind at all. You know, I'm into some weird stuff too."

"Oh yeah....Like what."

"Well....."

***

"Wow, Pinkie. I have to say, that sounds awesome," Rainbow Dash stated.

"Sure was and slash or probably is."

"How exactly did we get here from me asking you where we're going tomorrow?"

"Because you were being dirty minded when I said I was going to take you there, Dashie."

"HEY! I can't help it."

"But seriously, Dashie, if I tell you where it is, I'll have to make cupcakes out of you. No I'm only joking. I don't really do that, silly."

"Well that's good to know, Pinkie."

"It's still a secret though. But it will be our secret, Dashie."

Author's Notes:

So, guys. I'm in a bit of a dilemma here. Due to the themes I touched upon here, I think I may have pushed this to a mature rating rather than a teen rating, but since I did only touch upon them, even leaving the section where Pinkie Pie describes her "kicks" out. So I need a bit of judgement, Does this warrant a teen or mature rating. If it's mature, I'm more than happy to change it, but for the time being, I'll leave it as teen. Enjoy.

P.s I'm so hyped for the finale tomorrow. I'll be depressed when it finishes though due to no more new pony until 2015.
