I can't hear much as the engine sputters to life. After arriving at the skydiving facility, I bought myself a place on one of the planes going up today. I had to take a class that explained the whole thing to us, as well as demonstrating what to do once we're out of the plane. To save some cash, Rainbow will not be in the plane with me, but will instead follow the plane through the air until I jump out. There are four other people on my plane, a couple in their twenties, and a couple in their, I'm guessing, early thirties. I look like the odd man out by sitting alone in the back of the plane, but little do they know that my partner is right behind us.

I look out the window as see a rainbow streak just a little bit behind us. The windows are tinted so Rainbow doesn't react when I wave to her. I gave her instructions on what to do when we jump. She's supposed to wait until I'm falling, then she'll fly up next to me and close her wings. We'll fall together until I'm ready to pull my chute. Once I pull my chute, Rainbow will start flying again until we reach the ground.

"Alright! You guys remember your training!?" The instructor yells at us.

"Yes sir!" We yell with a few cheers and hollers.

"Then let's do this thing!" He yells back as he opens the side door. Wind quickly rushes in and fills my ears. I can't hear anything other than the rushing wind through the plane. The instructor waves out the door for us to jump. We're at about fifteen thousand feet right now, so the drop should last for a decent amount of time. The two couples jump out first, then I make my way to the edge of the platform. The instructor gives me a thumbs up and pats my back which is the sign I should jump. I take a deep breath and look at the ground below us. This is it, this is what I've been dreaming of my whole life. Well, the closest thing I can get to flying.

"HOLY FUUUUUCK!" I yell as the initial shock of falling kicks in. I look up to see the plane flying away from us at an incredible speed since I've lost most of my horizontal momentum.

Rainbow swoops down towards me and starts falling in front of me. I can see her face as I lean in her direction. She's laughing hysterically, as am I. This is the most exciting thing I've ever experienced. I near Rainbow and grab onto her front hooves. We spin around in a horizontal circle as we laugh and watch as the ground moves towards us. It's not flying exactly, but with Rainbow... well let's just say this is was better than flying as long as she's here with me.

The wind makes her hair stand straight up, making her look really weird. I laugh at her and point to her hair, to which she retorts by doing the same to me. I pull out the camera I brought with me and aim it at us. I didn't want to risk breaking my phone, so I brought an old digital camera that I don't use anymore. I hit record and get both of us in the shot. We both wave and laugh at the camera before whooping and hollering as we cheer with pure joy.

The time comes too quickly when I have to pull the cord on my vest. I wave to Rainbow and point at the cord to signal that I'm about to pull my chute. I pull the cord, and immediately all of the momentum of my falling goes straight to my crotch. I just went from over a hundred miles per hour to about ten in a matter of nano seconds, all of that force has to go somewhere.

"Ah! Fuck!" I yell as I grab my crotch in pain. I'm having too good of a time to be mad though, so I end up just laughing hysterically. I can actually hear now, so I start laughing as Rainbow hovers down next to me spewing a bunch of nonsense with the biggest smiles on her face. I hold out my arms and grab her out of the air.

"Ah! Matt!" She struggles as she loses her balance in the air. She quickly calms down when she sees that I'm supporting her against my chest. She spins around so her stomach is up against my chest.

"So, was I right or was I right? Flying is awesome isn't it!?" She says ecstatically.

"It was amazing! How are you not doing this 24/7!?"

"I used to when I didn't have to stick by you all the time." She jokes.

"Maybe I like you sticking around." I say with a laugh as I pull her up to me. Our lips meet and stay together until we're just a couple hundred feet from the ground. I drop Rainbow and she hovers down to the ground where she waits for me to land.

I hit the ground a little harder than I intended too, and roll to a stop a few feet in front of everyone.

"Nice landing." Rainbow smirks as she lifts the parachute off of me. I slip all the gear off and shake myself off.

"Totally meant to do that." I say as I brush myself off.


"That was amazing." Rainbow huffs as we plop down into the the truck.

"No kidding. I can see why you love it so much."

"Was this our first date?" Rainbow says with a soft laugh.

"Actually no. I... already planned that out."

"Really!? When is it? Where are we going?" Rainbow starts spewing out questions.

"Chill, chill. I wanted to do it this evening if that's okay with you. I've had this planned for a while now."

"Of course that's okay with me! It's not like I have anything else to do, my life practically revolves around you Matt."

"The same could be said about you. You made this whole experience thousands of times better than it would have been if I came alone."

"Aw Matt." Rainbow starts to obviously blush, and she tries to hide it.

"Awww, is this the return of Rainbow Sap?" I laugh as I turn onto the highway.

"I'm not sappy!"

"Don't worry sappy pony, you're secret is safe with me."

Rainbow lets out a little snort which only gives me ammo to my gun.

"That's real cute." I tease her. Any time she makes a weird sound, I call her out on it and she absolutely hates it.

"What?"

"Your little snort thing that you do."

"It's not cute, it means I'm annoyed."

We tease each other for the rest of the car ride back to the house. Once we get home, I hook up my camera to my laptop where my whole family watches the recording of us skydiving.

"I wanna do that!" Emily says excitedly as she points to the screen.

"In eight years, be my guest." I say as I keep my eyes on the video. Watching Rainbow laugh and having such a good time makes me glad that I found out about her feelings when I did. If I hadn't, I probably would've ended up with Skyler, and Rainbow would've fallen into depression. It's definitely a good thing that she revealed how she felt, even if it wasn't on purpose. In fact, I have Jack to thank for that. If he had never tried to attack her, then she wouldn't have said anything about her feelings. So, where ever you are Jack, thank you... Oh and also fuck you.

"You two are adorable together." My mom squeals. "You're perfect for each other!"

"You guys are dating!?" Emily says, being the last to know about us.

"Yeah, is that a problem Em?" I say as I turn in my chair.

"No, I like it!"

"Dad, you haven't said anything about us. Are you okay with us being a thing?" I say as I look over at my dad. He looks at me, then at Rainbow, then back to me.

"Just... don't do anything... in bed." He groans as he rubs his face with a hand. He's really supportive of everything I do, so I'm glad he came through for me.

"I don't plan too." I look over at Rainbow. "Right?"

"Heh, yeah. No way." She laughs nervously.

Everyone leaves my room until its just me and Rainbow. I surf the internet, checking the news and social media while Rainbow watches me from the bed.

"You know... if we ever got like... really serious... just, what would do if we wanted to have a filly?" Rainbow asks nervously from behind me. I spin around in shock, not expecting her to ask anything like that.

"I... didn't really think that far ahead. We aren't exactly compatible." I say as I take off my headphones so I can hear her better.

"So, say we do get pretty serious..."

"Rainbow, where are you going with this?"

"I don't know... I just hoped that one day we might get close enough to... y'know. Not now of course! I-I wouldn't want to do that yet."

"Nothing says we HAVE to do that y'know. Besides, I think you're being a little dramatic."

"It would be nice..." Rainbow mumbles under her breath, though I pick up on her words anyway.

"Rainbow, you know I don't care about that kind of stuff. Hell, if somebody said we could never kiss again, so be it. As long as I'm around you, life couldn't be any better."

"I just don't want our relationship to be different than anyone else's just because of what I am." Rainbow pulls out her wing and points to it.

"That's the thing though. You ARE different. But you know what? That's why I like you. You're unique, so what if society frowns upon us? I say fuck 'em!"

"So, what you're saying is... if we do get serious, you'd... consider doing stuff like that?"

"Rainbow, I'm eighteen and so are you. We have our whole lives ahead of us. We can worry about that stuff later when it actually matters. If we ever got the point where we got married, live on our own, and want a kid, then yeah, I could consider it. But until then, physical shit doesn't matter at all. What matters is you and me, here and now. So what I'm trying to say is, when the time is right, and if that time does come, then I think I'd be okay with that."

"Really? You wouldn't say no because I'm... well, not a human?"

"I wouldn't say no without a valid reason."

"Thanks Matt." Rainbow jumps off the bed and lands on me, knocking the air out of my lungs.

"Y-You're welcome." I gasp as I try to suck in air. "Hey, while we're on the subject, did you have to do this in my room..." I trail off as I reach down and rub my crotch area. I think Rainbow gets the message when her face turns red.

"W-What!? I never did that! Why would I do that!?"

"Rainbow I'm not an idiot. I woke up to you doing it last weekend! I didn't say anything because I didn't want to make it any more awkward than it already was."

"Y-You saw that!? Matt! That's private stuff!"

"Then why'd you do it in my bed! While I was in it no less!" At this point I don't care that she... ahem, played... with herself. I just thought I'd take the opportunity to embarrass her.

"I thought you were asleep!"

"How could I sleep when you're so loud?"

"Ugh, this is so embarrassing." Rainbow rubs her face with her hooves. "Why did I do it?"

"Yeah, why did you do it?"

"Because! I was stressed okay? Everyone does it Matt. It's not funny."

"Not everyone..."

"Wait, you've never... Really?"

"Really. I just told you like literally thirty seconds ago that I don't really care about physical stuff like that."

"Ugh! Now I feel even worse about it!"

"Would it make you feel better if I said I didn't really give a shit? I'm fine with you doing... well whatever it is you do. Just not in my bed."

"O-Okay. I won't do it again." She says with a sheepish smile, her cheeks blushing a deep red. After a few minutes of silence, I turn back to my laptop, but that doesn't mean that I shut up. I'm gonna embarrass her till she passes out.

"So, who were you thinking about?" I say casually as I keep my back to her.

"What?"

"When you were... y'know." I'm smiling an evil smile now, but she can't see that.

"Uh, that's, uh, none of your concern!"

"Was it your's truly by any chance?" This is too good. She just keeps putting down more ammunition for me to use!

"Uh..."

"I'll take that as a yes."

"I didn't even answer!"

"Whatever you say rainbow pony. I'm going on the internet." And with that, I begin to look around on the news.

Tonight is our big first date, and I just know it'll go perfectly... right?
