Chapter 2
Previous Chapter Next Chapter When Applejack awoke the next morning, she found Rainbow already awake and starting to leave.
She called out to her, “Hey Dashie, where ya goin’?”
Rainbow was startled by Applejacks presence and turned with a smile on her face. Not the kind that’s saying, ‘I want to leave’, but a true smile.
“I have to work. But I’ll talk to you when I finish. Meet me here at 5:30, OK?” Rainbow smiled. She had something planned. Only she knew, but she needed help.
“Ok Rainbow. Love you.” Applejack slipped back into the hammock, not even caring that she said “I love you” to Rainbow Dash. She knew she loved her and that Rainbow loved her.
“Love you too.” Rainbow quickly ran back to the hammock, kissed her mare-friend on the cheek, and left.
“Ahhh.” Applejack was in pure bliss.
Rainbow Dash didn’t have work that day, so she knew that she would need to be on her feet, or take to the air in order to avoid Applejack. She first went to Twilight’s.
“Hey Twilight can you do me a favo- OH CELESTIA DAMNIT, NOT AGAIN!”
She ran out the door as quickly as possible, and immediately starting gagging. There was benefit to walking on Twilight having sex, she wouldn’t have to go to Rarity’s boutique.
“Sorry about that Rainbow…” an embarrassed Twilight said with an equally embarrassed Rarity right by her side.
“We shall never speak of this incident again.” Muttered out a scarred Rainbow, who couldn’t un-see what she had just seen.
“Agreed.” Rarity stated without hesitation.
“Now that that’s over, what did you come here for?” Twilight said, trying to forget the situation.
“Obviously not my best friends having sex.” Said Rainbow, who, at this point, was just trying to get Twilight and Rarity annoyed.
“Haha very funny. Now what do you want?” Twilight was getting annoyed and Rainbow could tell.
“Well, Applejack and I-“ Rainbow was interrupted by said pony from behind.
Applejack walked up, wanting to give Rainbow a hello kiss, but she knew that since their friends were there, she couldn’t.
“Hey Rainbow, Twilight, Rarity. What’s up?” Applejack was totally ignorant of the actions that had occurred inside of the library just moments before.
“Rainbow just witnessed, umm, certain things that we shall never speak of again.” Rarity turned to Twilight to gain approval, which was granted. Applejack, who saw the look of disgust on Rainbow’s face, followed by the sweat on both Twilight and Rarity, soon figured out what had happened. She fainted.
“Applejack, AJ, wake up.” Applejack woke up a while later inside of the library to Rainbow Dash leaning over her, who successfully just tried to wake the earth pony up. As soon as Applejack woke, Rainbow Dash kissed her on the cheek, forgetting who was standing behind her.
“Uhhh…” Twilight saw the connection and was confused.
“Here Sugarcube, let me fix up any conclusion.” She did this by grabbing Rainbows face and connecting with her at the lips.
“D’AWWWW!!!!” Everyone had eventually learned to deal with Rarity as soon as she saw a new couple in Ponyville. Rainbow Dash blushed, shocked from what had just happened, then smiled.
“Come on Dashie, let’s go tell the others” Applejack, being the badass that she was, grabbed Rainbows hoof and pulled her out of the library, leaving Twilight and Rarity confused and wondering what had just happened.
“Now where? We kinda just shocked Twilight and Rarity back there. Shouldn’t we have them find out not just by making out in front of them then suddenly leaving?” Rainbow Dash said half seriously. She wanted her friends to find out, but not like that.
“They’re goin’ through the same thing we are babe. But you’re right. Let’s go to Sugar Cube Corner. Coming out to Pinkie Pie should be… interesting.” Applejack had become serious. With her brother marrying her best friend, two of her other best friends starting to date, a younger sister, and a grandma, it would be tough to announce her relationship with Rainbow.
When they arrived, they found Pinkie Pie rolling around outside for no apparent reason.
“Hey Pinkie, can we talk to you?” Rainbow Dash was taking control for this one.
“Sure. Come on in! I have a batch of cupcakes in the oven. We need to hurry though, Derpy is taking me out to dinner for our one month anniversary.”
Rainbow and Applejack turned first to each other, then to Pinkie Pie.
“Um… we’ll be right back.” Applejack nudged to Rainbow and they bolted out of there faster than Scootaloo across the road.
Applejack and Rainbow soon where about a quarter mile from Sugar Cube Corner, tired and sweaty.
“What the hay just happened?” asked a confused Rainbow Dash.
“I guess Pinkie Pie is dating the mail-mare,” Applejack was equally confused, “let’s head back. Pinkie probably thinks that we ditched her.”
They headed back where they found Pinkie Pie her same bubbly self. Only this time, they found her hoof-in-hoof with Derpy, the lovable mail-mare.
“Hey Derpy.” Said Rainbow. She didn’t really know Derpy, but she was a good mail-mare.
“Hey Rainbow.” Derpy knew everyone in Ponyville and the surrounding towns.
“So Pinkie. Rainbow and I wanted to tell you, we’re together now.” Applejack wanted to get it over with.
“Well congrats you two!” Something was seriously wrong with Pinkie. She was acting… normal. No big freak outs, no parties being planned, nothing. Applejack smiled. She thanked Pinkie for her time and wished her a good time on her dinner date with Derpy.
