Come with Me

“The days are long and heavy

As Celestia trots across our land

The sound of her gallop

The same one heard by my mother and her own…”

Fluttershy gently smiled. At her right, Rainbow Dash had her arm around Rarity who rested her head on her lovers´ shoulder. At her left, Twilight had her head placed on Pinkie´s soft mane. All over the saloon, ponies were embracing their significant other, listening to Applejack´s soft voice. Even Applebloom was forcing Spike to cross his arm around her.

Fluttershy giggled at this. She didn’t have her special somepony hugging her but she didn’t mind.

She could feel Applejack hug on her voice.

“We work hard and long, every day and night

We work hard until Luna reaches her head out

Singing to our children her lullaby…

Fluttershy couldn’t say a word. Big Macintosh handled the entire conversation, assuming the role of surrogate father that he took when their parents dies. The doctor calmly answered to all of his questions but he had no solution.

Fluttershy looked at Applejack who softly smiled back. She had nothing to say too.

“And that afternoon I buried them

Just like they buried their own before

And the ground where their rest gives birth to a new crop…

The moving was taking longer than expected. Twilight organizing skills and magic should have finished this sooner but keeping her over-excited wife in check was a full time task. Rarity of course wasn’t helping at all but Rainbow didn’t mind, always ready to impress her girl. Her only problem was dealing with the bunny. Angel was completely against moving to Applejack´s farm and refused to move.  Fluttershy simply gave him the Stare and the bunny conceded and grab his luggage. Rainbow was about to ask her how she did that bu then remembered Fluttershy´s vote of silence.

She took one last look at her cottage, taking a mental picture of her former house and smiled one last time.

“And when the rain falls, and when the wind blows

I have nothing else but you

Only you…

Applejack and Fluttershy were resting in their rockers, enjoying the quiet afternoon. Winona, no longer an active dog, was sleeping right in the middle of the pair. Both Applebloom and Big Mac have left long ago and Granny Smith had joined her sons long ago. Even all of their friends have left Ponyville, chasing their dreams together. Applejack have nopony else but Fluttershy.

She looked at her wife. She regretted that Fluttershy had cut her mane. She looked too mature and serene. Applejack grabbed a piece of paper and struggled to write something. She handled the paper to the confused pegasus. On it, it was written one single question, the one she had wanted to ask for years.

Fluttershy smiled and slowly shook her head.

Applejack´s eyes were filled with tears as she jumped to hug such a kind mare.

“Come trot with me, mare of my dreams

Come to the land where my heart belongs

Come trot with me, mare of my dreams…

Applejack voice grew in intensity and passion. She was handling her heart to the audience but she had only one pony on her mind. The one pony she always sung too, the only one all her songs were dedicated, the one she loved the most.

“Come with me…”

“…I will.”
