Rainbow Dash awoke bright and early, the sun shining dimly, somewhat illuminating the curtains, giving them the appearance that they were glowing. As expected, she woke up next to Pinkie Pie, but it was different. Rather than the usual position they took, she noticed they were more a merge of hooves, their faces only inches apart, and their tails wrapped in a spiral of rainbow and pink. The eeriness of the situation was only amplified by what she thought was a dream.

Rainbow Dash sighed sadly. If only it was real, she thought to herself. Maybe one day. He watched as Pinkie Pie slept, the only movement between the pair was their chests heaving as the drew breath, the only sound was Pinkie Pie's light snoring. Rainbow Dash thought briefly about using this as an edge on which to poke fun at the pink mare, but decided against it, for the moment at least.

Soon enough, Rainbow Dash noticed Pinkie Pie's right eye crack open, only for her to immediately shut it again. Rainbow Dash immediately knew what this game was. Pinkie Pie was pretending to be asleep for some reason. Unbeknown to her, Pinkie Pie had a plan. The pink mare slowly leaned in, eyes remaining closed, and planted a kiss on Rainbow Dash's cheek. Pinkie Pie immediately opened her eyes to see Rainbow Dash blushing as red as a tomato.

Pinkie Pie let out a little giggle, not unlike that of a foal. "Morning, Dashie."

Rainbow Dash was having a little trouble speaking due to a lump forming in her throat in embarrassment. "Do....do you know?"

"Do I know what, Dashie?"

"Oh, nothing, just a dream I had. We kind of...you know?"

"Come on, Dashie. It's too early for that yet...Well I understand, we've been friends a long time, so it's not really really silly but we only..."

Rainbow Dash covered Pinkie Pie's mouth with her hoof, in order to stop Pinkie Pie in her tracks. She then did a double take. Wait. Too early in what? "Pinkie, did we really get together last night?"

"Yes indeedy. Remember, you flew off, and i chased after you, we came back here and spoke for a bit, then we ended up getting together and doing smoochies. Then we went to sleep, we slept all night, and now we're awake."

Rainbow Dash could not control herself from rocketing out of the bed and doing an aerial somersault, before landing on her hooves back on the bed. From sudden activity, Rainbow Dash immediately became light-headed, and toppled off the bed onto the floor below. Pinkie Pie immediately looked over the bed, seeing Rainbow Dash lying on her back with her hooves spread out, as if she was posing as a star. This prompted a laugh from the pink mare.

"Think that's funny, do ya?" Rainbow Dash loosely wrapped her forelegs around Pinkie's neck, before pulling her off the bed, and on top of her. The pair just remains silent for the moment, perfectly content in gazing to each other's eyes. Subconsciously the pair started to move their muzzles closer together. The distance between the became immeasurably small

*KNOCK KNOCK*

"Sister, Rainbow Dash bre... Oh." Inky stared in disbelief at the scene before her. Her sister and her sisters best friend, and her other sisters idol looking rather... involved in intimate activity. "I do apologise." With that, Inky went to leave the room.

"No, wait, Inky," shouted Pinkie Pie, causing Inky to turn and face them. Pinkie Pie got from on top of Rainbow Dash, and Rainbow Dash rose to her hooves, taking position next to Pinkie Pie.

"Yes, sister?"

"That wasn't what it might have looked like. We were being sappy, not naughty ponies who are very very naughty. It's waaaaaaaaay too soon for that yet."

Rainbow Dash glared at Pinkie Pie. "I'm not sappy," she muttered to herself, looking at the ground. She knew she wasn't sappy at the best of times, but the flaw in her tough mare attitude is, and always will be Pinkie Pie.

Inky appeared to be deep in thought, the gears in her head turning away at the information she was given. "So, you guys...You're together?" A smile from the pair of them answered Inky's questions. "Blinky is going to be ecstatic about this."

"No, Inky, please let us tell everypony else in our own time, probably after breakfast actually, but let us do it. Pleeeease." Pinkie Pie quivered her lip, and somehow instantly dilated her pupils on cue to give Inky the puppy dog eyes.

"But of course, sister," the small grey mare made her way over to Rainbow Dash, seemingly sizing her up. This made Rainbow Dash feel uncomfortable. She wasn't really intimidated by Inky per se, but one bad opinion from anypony related to Pinkie could easily sway their relationship. The young mare began to speak again. "Look after Pinkie. I'm sure you know she's been through a lot."

"Believe me, I will," replied Rainbow Dash with a salute to punctuate her acceptance of Inky's request.

"Thank you, Rainbow Dash." Inky turned around, exiting the room, before popping her head back in. "By the way, breakfast is ready."

"Okie dokie lokie," replied Pinkie.

Rainbow Dash remained silent for a moment, waiting longer to ensure that Inky was out of earshot. "Talk about a mood killer," she quietly stated.

"Awww, Dashie's not in the mood for a kiss of her awesome marefriend." Pinkie Pie added a pout of mock sadness to emphasise her point.

"HEY! I'm the awesome one here!" Rainbow Dash noticed Pinkie Pie's face form a wicked grin "Ok, ok, we both are."

"Sounds right, Dashie. I've just had the best idea ever. We should totally write to our friends to tell them we're together. I think they'll be soooooooo happy for us, then we can go to eat, then tell everypony here, my parents and Blinky. Then we can do awesome stuff, then we'll still go on the date tonight, because it will be awesome to go on a date still."

"Sounds like a plan, Pink." With that, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash went about their plan, starting with writing a letter to their friends to deliver the news.

Author's Notes:

Set just before second letter and second reply.

Rainbow Dash blushing as red as a tomato.

Let's not have a debate on how the word tomato is pronounced. It is 100 percent definitely pronounced as it is spelt.

There should be at least 3 parts to this. I was going to do a longer chapter, but decided against it.

Finally, I'm still looking for anyone who wants to come-author the sequel. It's still just an idea though.
