A Wedding To Remember!
Chapter 7- Games We Play!

Rainbow Dash's P.O.V

As I woke up the next morning, I felt something touch my nose. It felt soft and cuddly. When I opened my eyes, I saw Cinnamon right on top of my nose and her black eyes connecting to mine.

“AHHHH!!!” I yelled as I fell of the bed. Luckily, Cinnamon jumped off just in time and landed safely on my bed.

“Good morning! How was your sleep?”

“Great until you woke me up.”

“Hey! It was either me or your mom. And I believe you give your mom a hard time getting up.”

“Ow! Aren't you gonna help me?”

“Uh, I got little paws.”

“Ugh! Nevermind!” I replied as I scrambled on my bed. I rubbed my head from the pain. “What time is it?”

“Um, 7:00am.”

“I wake up at 7:45!!”

“Oops! We'll we can talk in the meantime.”

“I am not wasting 45 minutes talking to you!” I said as I reached for my phone and Soarin just texted me. A smile spread across my face as I started to text him back. I was giggling a bit. Not even a peep, Cinnamon climbed to the top of my head and tried to see what I was doing.

“Hmph! But you rather text him though.”

“Cinnamon!! What are you doing sneaking up on me like that?!”

“Um, I climbed up?”

“Oh right.”

“So, who ya texting?”

“Um, no one.”

“Ooooh, she doesn't want me to know she has a boyfriend!!!”

“Cinnamon. Keep it down. It's to early in the morning for this. And I don't have a boyfriend.”

“So, why don't you tell me who ya texting?”

“Well, um, because, um-”

“Yes?”

“He's a friend of mine.”

“Mmmmmhm!” She hummed as she gave me a sassy look.

“I'm serious. I'm going back to bed.”

“OH NO YOU'RE NOT!!!” Cinnamon yelled as she gave a big bite on my finger. I grabbed her and she started to wiggle her way out.

“Look, I'm going to have a very long day today. I need my rest.”

“Okay. If that's what you want. Wait a minute.” Cinnamon replied while walking towards my clock. She tapped it and the real time was 8:25!!!!

“Oh no! I'm going to be late!” I yelled as I unwrapped the covers from me. I ran to the bathroom and brushed my teeth very fast. Then, I put on some jeans and a black shirt that said “I woke up like this!” and I just put my hair in a messy ponytail and grabbed a bagel and some water. I took Cinnamon and put her in my pocket and ran out the house. I ran all the way to school, but I was still late.

“Awww man.” I panted as I reached the school. I was walking down the hallway until someone grabbed my shirt from the back and threw me into a room.

“Hey! What gives?”

I looked around and saw all my friends with their instruments.

“Oh goodness! I thought you weren't coming.” Fluttershy said.

“I was.” I replied as Sunset and Applejack helped me up. “What am I doing here?”

“Um, we have band practice and by the looks of it, you don't have your guitar.” Sunset added looking a little disappointed.

“Oh sorry. I woke up late today.” I yawned.

“Ha! That explains the hair. Oh and the shirt. Totally expresses your face!” Pinkie added. I rolled my eyes and sat in a chair and started to run my head.

“Dash, are you alright?” Twilight asked.

“I'm ok.”

“You're hair looks terrible!” Rarity screamed.

“Ah think we've already established that, Rarity. Where were ya?” Applejack asked getting a bit angry.

“I was here. Why?”

“Ugh nevermind. RD, if you're tired right now, how can ya concentrate for tonight's game?”

“Wait!! Tonight is the game??!!!” I shouted.

“Well duh! I was gonna tell you that!” Cinnamon yelled.

“Who said that?” Twilight questioned.

“Oh, I got a pet guinea pig yesterday and she talks. Her name is Cinnamon.” I replied as I pulled her out of my pocket and showed her to my friends. All of my friends all talked about how cute she was.

“Hello everyone. And Rainbow I was going to tell you. Did you even take your duffel bag with the uniform?”

*yarns* “It's in my book bag. I'm so tired.”

“Well maybe you can rest here for the day and when it's time for the game, we'll come back for you.” Fluttershy responded.

“Thanks guys. I really appreciate it.” I yawned again and this time I fell asleep. Snoring away. All my friends left me. I was left alone with Cinnamon. Turns out, she also took a nap, too. I'm glad I didn't want to hear her talk.

Soarin's P.O.V

I was walking down the hallway and I saw one of Rainbow's friends. She had red and yellow hair. I don't know what her name is. I wanted to find Rainbow Dash. I think she knows where she is.

“Um, excuse me?” I asked while tapping her shoulder.

“Hello. Can I help you?”

“You're a friend of Rainbow Dash, right?”

“Yeah. Why?”

“I was looking for her.”

“Oh, well, she's sleeping. She's very tired. I think you should let her rest.”

“Oh, ok. Thanks though.”

“Uh huh. Do you have any classes with her?”

“We have the same classes.”

“Oh, well, she'll be up soon. Tell your 2nd period teacher that she's going to late. Okay?”

“Gotcha! Okay. I never got your name.”

“Oh Sunset Shimmer.”

“Nice name. My name is Soarin.”

“Well, nice to meet ya. I'll check on Dash now.”

“Okay, great! Later!”

I walked away from Sunset and was a little disappointed. I wanted to hangout with Dash today since our 2nd and 2rd period teachers aren't here today.I went to the boys locker room and started to prepare to tonight's game. I was so nervous. But, this isn't the first time playing against the Shadowbolts. But, I feel this time that something's going to happen.

“Whatcha thinkin bout, bro?” My friend, Thunderlane asked me while changing into his basketball uniform. “You ready for tonight?”

“Yeah, I am.”

“Hmmm, something's bothering you. I'm curious to know why.”

“I'm fine okay! I just….I…...have you ever fell in love with someone and they don't even notice that you try your hardest?”

“Um, no. Well, I got my eye set on Rarity. She's very hot.”

“Hey! Rarity? Isn't that a friend of Rainbow Dash?!”

“Yeah, it is. Why?”

“Um, hehehe, no reason.”

“You like her?!!”

“N-No! I'm just saying. Hypothetically speaking.”

“Yeah, sure.”

“I'm dead serious!”

“Okay! Gosh. See ya later bro.”

I was by myself and I started to go to our Math class. I felt someone jump on my back.

“Heyo!”

“Hi Dash. I see you woke up for class.”

“Oh, uh, yeah. Mhm! Totally pumped up.” She beamed at me. We stared at each other's eyes and I watched her magenta eyes glisten in the light. Every time she blinked, her eyes sparkled even more. I gave a sigh watching her eyes get bigger and cuter as we stared.

“Um, shouldn't we head to class?” I blurted out.

“Mhm! See ya there.” She replied as she ran past me.

I walked to class. I don't do anything in class. I just flirt with the ladies. And one lady in particular. Rainbow Dash. The most beautiful girl in class. Today we were learning about angles. Another boring topic. As I sat in my chair, I put my feet up. And gave the teacher a stank look. We had Ms. Harshwhinny. Annoy as hell! I was minding my own business. We had work on the board, which I didn't even bother to do. At the corner of my eye, I saw Rainbow Dash writing in her book. She does work in class but she gets answers wrong. I gave her a smile and she rolled her eyes at me. I tried to impress her, but I got in trouble.

“Mr. Skies? Please do not distract students from trying to learn.”

“I'm not distracting anybody!”

“Okay then. If you're not, then you'll do all the work on the board, correctly.”

“Wait what??!!”

Everyone in the class laughed and Rainbow Dash was giggling. My cheeks turned a shade of crimson.

“Mr. Skies? Are you ready to do the work on the board?”

“Um, no miss. Still doing the work-”

“You had ample time to do the work. Up! We don't have time to waste.”

I got up from my seat and saw Rainbow Dash giggling at me. I was blushing a bit as I reached the board.

“Alright! Begin.”

I picked up the piece of chalk and started to ‘teach’ the class.

“So, um, you're gonna name each angle and its measurement. The first one which is an obtuse angle-”

The class laughed. Rainbow Dash was laughing at me which made me blush in embarrassment.

“Mr. Skies. Are you sure that's an obtuse angle?”

“Yes.”

The class laughed more. I saw Sunset, Pinkie, and Rarity laughing alongside with Dash and the rest of the class.

“Now class. We shouldn't be laughing at a student who is trying to learn.” Ms. Harshwhinny pleaded.

“But if he's at the board he's technically teaching. He's a bad teacher.” Pinkie spoke up which made the class burst into laughter again.

“PINKAMENA!!! It's not a time for jokes. Anyway, Soarin. It's not obtuse. What do you notice about the angle?”

“It's shaped like an L.”

“Mhm. And there's a small square in the middle of the angle. What does that square indicate?”

“Oooh! Me! I know!!” I heard Rainbow shout while waving her hand anxiously.

“Um, it indicates that the angle is positioned correctly?” I asked. I overheard a few giggles.

“No. Can someone help him?”

“Me!! I can!” Dash shouted while waving her hand.

“Yes, Ms. Dash?”

“It indicates that the angle equals 90° and it's a right angle! Boom!” She said as she ended her answer with a big smile as she threw her pen in the air.

“Excellent. Did you hear what she said, Mr. Skies?”

“Oh yeah. I really did. Thanks Dash.”

“No problem.”

“So, the answer is a right angle and it's measurement is 90°.”

“Yes! Now, try the second one.”

“Oh, I know this one. This angle is acute, like Rainbow Dash.” I replied as I winked at her. The class started to ‘oooh’ and she covered her face with her notebook.

“Anyway, this angle equals to, um, 50°?”

“Are you asking me or are you telling me?” Ms. Harshwhinny asked.

“Um, telling.”

“Correct. Good job Soarin. Would someone else come to the board?”

Kids started to raise their hands as I sat behind Rainbow Dash, secretly.

“Did you hear what I said about you?”

“Yeah, I did. That was very-”

“Sweet of me? Why thank you.”

“I wasn't going to-”

“Mr. Skies!!! Please go back to your original seat!”

I went back to my seat and went back flirting with Dash. As I sat in my seat, I kept making kissy faces to her. She looked at me and giggled and rolled her eyes. Can you imagine kissing her on her lips in reality? Hmmmmhm! Kissing her soft, tender, juicy-

“Soarin?” I heard a voice say. It was Rainbow Dash.

“Yeah?”

“Can you move your head to the side? I can't see the board.”

“How about you move your body on me?”

“In your dreams. Seriously. Move please?”

“I want your body to move on me!”

“You're disgusting.”

“Sorry, am I making Rainbow Dash uncomfortable?”

“Very!”

We were about to do classwork, but the bell rang. I ran out the class and had to get ready for the game 7-9th period. Now, it's 5th period and most of the players went to the locker room. As we started to get dressed, some of the boys were talking about the game.

“I heard that the Shadowbolts are coming hard this time around.” Wave Chill, one of team members said.

“Me too. Well, we got to be on guard. Try to make shots and try to make goals.” I replied.

“Um, dude? Isn't making goals and shots the same thing?” Thunderlane asked.

“Oh right. Look guys. I'm nervous. I'm very nervous that we might lose.” I confessed.

“Bro. We're not going to lose. We can do this. You are the captain after all.” Thunderlane reassured me. All the team members nodded their heads. That really boosted my confidence.

“Alright guys! We can do this. Let's go out there and kick some Shadowbolt ass!” I exclaimed. Everyone started to cheer. I have a good feeling about this game!

Rainbow Dash's P.O.V

I ran to the girls room and changed my clothes. We had to wear blue and yellow make up. Well, I just put on blue eyeshadow and Surprise made a glittery yellow star around my eye. She put gel in my hair and fixed my edges and she put my hair in a ponytail. She curled my bang. And once she was done, she gave me a mirror.

“Didn't I make you pretty?” She asked.

“Wow! Thank you so much.”

“No problem. Okay ladies! Let's cheer for our school. And cheer with pride!”

Everyone went out the room and I was about to leave but someone called me.

“Rainbow Dash!”

I turned around and saw Cinnamon trying to get out my purse. I went to the purse and carried her out of it.

“Whew! I thought I wasn't going to get air. Oh, can I go with you?”

“Where?”

“To cheer! Duh!”

“Oh, um, I don't know where to put you. I don't have any pockets.”

“Hmm, maybe I can help with that.” She said as she climbed up my arm and reached to the top of my head. “I'll stay up here between your bang.”

“Ok. I'll be jumping a lot.”

“It's fine. I'll stay close. Onward to cheer for your school! March!”

“Ok.”

I walked to the gym and we had to wait to walk into the gym, so we can cheer for our team. As we waited, Cinnamon tried to wiggle her way to talk to me.

“Are you ready?”

“Yeah, but a little nervous, though. I feel that I might make the team not have enough confidence to win with my cheering.”

“Oh, you'll be fine. Trust me.”

“Welcome everyone to the basketball game between Crystal Prep, the Shadowbolts and Canterlot High school, the Wondercolts!! We have a special game for you tonight! But before we start, we'll let you see our fantastic visitors, the Shadowbolts!!” Pinkie shouted in the microphone. Who vouched her to make her own commentary for the game? Well, she's great for entertaining.

“OMG! We're next! Cinnamon help me!” I screamed quietly so she could hear.

“Rainbow, chillax. You'll be great! Woah! Your cheeks are as red as my name.”

“Thanks for making me feel so much better.”

“No problem!”

“I was being sarcastic.”

“And I'm being crazy! Oh wait! They're about to call on the cheerleaders for your school.”

“Oh God! Help me!”

“Now, calling the best school in this area! The best players ever!!! The bold and the awesome!!! Ladies and gentlemen, the……..Wondercolts!!” Pinkie shouted.

“Ready girls?” Surprise asked.

“No!”I shrieked.

“Dashie, you'll be fine. Get in there.” Cinnamon reassured me.

It was our turn to walk out there. My heart was pounding rapidly. My cheeks were burning up and I was shaking like crazy. Finally, we were walking in the gym and as soon as I went in there, Pinkie was screaming my name.

“HI DASHIE!!!!!!” She shouted as she waved her hand. I waved sheepishly at her and was very nervous. It was time to do our cheer, and I was nervous as hell.

“Dash, calm down. Just focus on the team, not the students. You'll be okay. Don't worry.” Cinnamon whispered in my ear.

I closed my eyes and thought about my school, my friends, and Soarin. Everyone I knew had confidence in me. I took a deep breath and did my cheer. At first, I felt scared. But after, I felt happy! I did my cheer and at the end, I did a jump. My ending pose was doing jazz-hands with my pom poms. After we all did our cheer, the boys came out and the game began. I sat on the bench and Cinnamon tickled my neck.

“Hehehe, Cinnamon. What gives?”

“I'm just congratulating you on your job well done.”

“Thank you. Now, I can relax and watch.”

The game was going great we were winning by 2 points. Soarin was doing a great job and using some of the pointers. I wanted to cheer for him, but I was scared. Ah, who cares? Im'ma cheer for him!

“Go Soarin!!” I shouted. He looked at me and froze. The other team stole the ball and got a point. We were far behind. And we only had 16 seconds left.

“Uh oh!” I thought.

Soarin's P.O.V

As I was playing the game, I heard someone say “Go Soarin!!” I turned around and saw Rainbow Dash. My whole body froze. I was just staring at her beautiful, sexy body. Her hair was perfectly in a nice ponytail and her face was beautiful. Her body was perfectly shaped. I was daydreaming and my cheeks were very red until Wave Chill broke my concentration.

“Pass the ball, Soarin! We're losing! We literally have 16 seconds left! The net is right here!!”
Games Gone Wrong
Art by MoonDancer MLP AKA: Christy

I snapped back to reality and the other team got the point. The bell rang and our school was disappointed. It was my fault. I'm such a dummy. But, Rainbow Dash was looking very hot just now. We had a 15 minute break and we went back to the locker room. The Coach wanted to talk with us.

“What was that?!” The Coach asked. He was very angry. “Soarin! You just stood there. We were winning! What the hell?!”

“Sorry coach. I got distracted.”

“By what? Huh? By what?!”

“By a, by a-”

“By a girl!!” Thunderlane cooed. Every boy on the team started to ‘oooh’. I rolled my eyes.

“It wasn't a girl okay? Anyway, I'm sorry coach. It won't happen again.”

“It better not. You guys take a water break. We have 10 minutes left.”

We all went out of of locker room. I was a little sad about what I did to my team. Thunderlane and Wave Chill were talking to me.

“So, if it wasn't a girl, who were you looking at?” Wave Chill asked.

“Ugh! It was nothing, okay?” I grumbled.

“Woah dude. What's up with you? You can tell us.” Thunderlane said.

“No! Just leave me alone, okay? We have a game to play!” I said as I ran out the room and was going back to the court.

Rainbow Dash's P.O.V

“Uh, what just happened?” Cinnamon asked. “Why did he just stay there?”

“I dunno. But, it did make us lose the first quarter.” I said looking confused. “Was it me?”

“Huh? What do you mean? You cheered for a boy named Soarin.”

“The boy that froze is Soarin.”

“Dead ass?!”

“Hey! No cursing! And yes. That's him.”

“Ooohh, he's cute. But, why would you say it was you?”

“Because after I cheered, he looked at me and froze!”

“Oh, I see. So, it was you. But, why did he just stay there? He was looking at you. Could it be your uniform?”

“Uh, I'm not sure. We shouldn't jump to conclusions. Maybe, I'll just cheer quietly for him. I seriously don't want us to lose again.”

“Okay. Look! The break is almost done! This time, I'll watch from your shoulder. I wanna see everything!”

“Okay. And why?”

“Dunno. I just wanna see who's gonna win. Sports is my life, ya know.”

“Okay. Shush! It's starting!”

As the players came back, the game started to get rough. The Shadowbolts kept pushing and shoving it get the ball. A boy on the other team pushed Soarin to the ground and got the ball and shot it in the hoop! That's a foul! And they know it!”

“Hey! That's a foul!!!” I shouted. The whole gym look towards my area. “Give him a shot! That's unfair!!”

“Excuse me young lady.” I heard someone say. It was the coach on the other team. He looked at me with a stern face. “You're just mad because your school is losing.”

“Excuse me?!! That's a foul! You shouldn't be allowing this. Give him a shot!” I shouted louder. Soon, the whole gym was buzzing.
“Dash? I think you should be quiet now.” Cinnamon whispered.

“Um, folks? We're experiencing some technical difficulties. Hehe, please stay by.” Pinkie said in the microphone.

“Dash!” My coach shouted. “What do you think you're doing?”

“You know that was a foul! You know it!!”

“I know, but we're following the rules.”

“By not fouling?! You're the coach! You know behaviors like that are ending in fouls! You know it!!”

“That's true. I'll see what I can do!”

“Thanks Coach!” I replied as I ran to Soarin to help him.

“Oh, are you okay?” I replied as I went to him and rubbed his shoulders.

“Yeah, I'm fine. Nothing big. Thanks for helping me Rainbow Dash!”

“Awww, it was nothing.” I replied as I blushed a bit. “Just trying to make us win. Guess what? You're going to get your free shot. Try to make all of them so we can catch up.”

“Gotcha! Thanks again.”

I helped him up and have him the ball.

“Knock em dead!” I said as I ran back to the benches.

“Nice job! Guess you didn't need to shut up. You're right. That was foul.” Cinnamon said.

“Exactly! Look, he's about to make a shot!”

Soarin made the shot! He had to be another one! And he made that one, too. So, we're now 1 point ahead.

“Okey dokey lokey folks!!! We're back on track. Now, the Wondercolts are winning! But will they keep this up? Let's find out.” Pinkie chirped as she was dancing.

After a few minutes, the clock had 10 seconds left! The goal was 14-12!! We were winning by 2 points. All we need was 1 more shot.

10….9…..8….7…..6……

Thunderlane was passing the ball to Wave Chill and Wave Chill passed the ball to Soarin.

5…...4...3…..2……

Soarin had the ball and shot into the hoop as soon as it said 1! We won the game!!! Canterlot High rejoiced! Even though the Shadowbolts were disappointed, they do congratulated us. Everyone was shouting with joy.

“OMG!!! CANTERLOT WON! IN LESS THAN A SECOND!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!! WOOO HOO!!!!” Pinkie shouted. “AFTER PARTY AT MY HOUSE!!!”

Everyone was hugging the players. All the boys went to the locker rooms to change. I, on the other hand, was going home.

“Dashie! We won! Where are you going?” Pinkie asked. All my friends were there and they all had popcorn boxes.

“Well, I don't know what to wear to the after party.”

“Dash, don't worry! I got and outfit for you to wear. Come with me to the bathroom.”

At the bathroom……

“You've got to be kidding me!!!!” I shouted.
