"Um, Rainbow?" you asked, as the two of you landed on the cloudy surface of her front garden, "Why have we come back home?"

You had to admit, when she said that there was something she had wanted to do, you were almost expecting her to take you back to the Ghastly Gorge to settle your unfinished business.

"Because it's late, duh!" she said, pushing open her front door. It was beginning to get quite late. The sun had set a while ago and now the moon was in its place.

Although Luna was still 'unconscious' in the dream world, the moon had somehow still raised. Princess Celestia must've been working over time in order to keep the time of day in check.

"Yeah, but... I thought there was something you wanted you wanted to do." you replied, confused. Following her through the front door, you could see Tank sleeping in a strange position on the cloud couch.

You couldn't help but laugh at the weird position the tortoise had found himself in; flipped over onto the back of his shell.

"There is something I want to do!" Rainbow replied, as you closed the door behind you.

"Well, where is it?" you asked, still feeling as confused as ever. You glanced around the cloud house, seeing nothing of interest or out of the ordinary.

"It's... Upstairs!" she exclaimed, immediately taking flight towards them. She seemed nervous for some odd reason.

You let out a puzzled sigh, realising that she was most likely improvising in order to get out of jumping off of that cliff again. Honestly, you couldn't blame her though. Having the ability to fly for your entire life, then having that ability stripped from you temporarily must've been an experience.

Realistically, though, it wasn't something she had never experience before. Discord had once removed her wings using magic for a short time, so surely she knew what it was like to not be able to fly.

Nevertheless, you followed Rainbow Dash up the staircase, being sure to not wake up Tank. A tired, angry tortoise was not what you wanted to deal with right now.

"Rainbow?" you asked, reaching the top floor of her house. You had no idea where she was, or what room she was in, but she wasn't making a sound.

Cautiously, you crept around the top floor of the cloud tower, searching from the bathroom all the way to her bedroom. If she was anywhere, she would be in her own room.

"Rainbow, where've you gone?" you asked, as you approached her bedroom door. It would only be you that could get lost in your own house.

Slowly, you opened the door, and immediately you felt a pair of hoofs wrap around you, lifting you into the air. Before you could react, you felt yourself get swung around and thrown through the air, landing on the bed.

"Does that answer your question?" Rainbow asked, laughing as she flew over the the foot of the bed. If you weren't a Pegasus, she most likely wouldn't have been able to lift you right there.
You also wouldn't be here right now, as you would've been falling to your death.

"I guess it does," you began, not yet attempting to get up from the bed, "But I have another question."

Rainbow crossed her hoofs, smirking slyly. That seemed to be your indication to go ahead with you question, "What exactly do you wanna do up here?"

Rainbow continued smirking for a second, before letting out a sigh. She hovered further over the bed, until she was positioned directly above you.

"You haven't figured it out yet?" she asked, confusing you even further. She let out another sigh before flying down and landing ontop of you, "It's you."

Now you understood her, but before you could make any form of response her lips met yours.

She tasted like... rainbows. You weren't sure how you knew what's a rainbow tasted like, but if they tasted like anything, this was it. There was also a hint of spice, but that you expected.
The rainbow water at the cloud factory did literally set Pinkie Pie on fire, after all.

After a few moments, Rainbow broke the kiss in order to breathe, but after a few seconds, you were right back to it. This felt a lot more passionate than last time.

Before long, the inevitable happened.

You could feel your hormones rushing to a certain area of your body, and you definitely understood why. While last time you were a little embarrassed about it, this time you weren't ashamed in anyway.

Upon noticing this, Rainbow broke the kiss once again, "So... Do you wanna...?"

Honestly, you weren't expecting her to be so straight forward, but you preferred it this way anyway. You didn't want to risk this getting awkward, even for a second.

"Yes," you said bluntly, not even giving it a second thought. Maybe that wasn't the right thing to do, but you felt as if you could justify it, "We might not get another chance."

Once again, your thoughts were driven back to the battle that was slowly impending. Sooner or later it would arrive, but for now, you were free to enjoy yourself.

Rainbow gave a compassionate smirk, before beginning to lower herself. Too your surprise, she stopped moments before touching you.

"Wait! What about... Y'know... Foals...?" she said, worriedly, "I don't think I'm ready for that kinda stuff yet."

This was something that had been worrying you too, but you hoped that you had found a solution. Via some research that you had done, you had discovered that your magic had some... unique uses.

"Don't worry," you said, as your wings began to glow a soft yellow, "I've got that covered."

The two of you grinned at each other before she finally closed the remaining distance between you and her.

"Mmph..." Rainbow groaned, as if in pain. Instantly, a wave of electricity shot through you, and she must've been feeling it too, even if not positively.

"Are you ok?" you asked, moving back and forth slowly.

"Uh huh!" she replied, nodding her head. Her eyes were closed, so she was either loving it, or she was trying to drown out the pain.

A few minutes had passed before she began to speed up, moving up and down at a slightly faster pace. You were thankful to see that her pain was beginning to lessen.

"Fuck..." Rainbow moaned, beginning to pick up the pace even more. Her wings had fanned out, in order to keep balance as she sat up.

She continued moving quicker and quicker, slowly getting a little fast every few seconds. Too your surprise, she eventually collapsed down onto you, her face burrowing into your neck.

Her warm breath felt nice against you, almost comforting in a way.

Realising that her speed was beginning to steady out, you realised that you needed to take it upon yourself to finish this. Slowly, you began to pick up your own speed.

"Ah..." Rainbow moaned, letting out even more warm air into your neck. You could safely say that this was the best you had ever felt in your life. Despite the looming threat, you had never felt so safe.

Eventually, you had almost matched her pace, and could begin to feel the end nearing. Rainbow began to rub her face into your neck vigorously, her breathing shaky.

"Ohmigosh ohmigosh ohmigosh!" she exclaimed, over and over again like a broken record. Unlike a broken record, however, this was a sound that you liked hearing.

Within in a few moments, you had finished and your pace began to slow. Rainbow's breath continued to stay shaky, but her pace too began to slow down, until eventually you both parted.

Her head rose from your neck, staring at you with loving eyes. A sincere smile that you didn't see very often began to grow on her face.

"That was... so awesome." she exclaimed, before collapsing onto you once again. Her head rested on your chest, her multicoloured mane rubbing gently into you. With every breath you took, you saw her rise and fall.

She seemed incredibly tired after that, and honestly, so did you.

You wrapped a single hoof around her, gently pushing her wings back into their usual position, and closed your eyes. All you could hear were the sounds of both your's and Rainbow's breathing, and that was all you needed to hear.

The two of you fell asleep in each other's hoofs, drifting off into a peaceful sleep. Whatever the coming days threw at you, and whatever Null had planned...

You would take it on together.

Author's Notes:

This actually didn't take a whole 4 days to write, it only took 2. I used yesterday to take a break from writing, and I'm using today to start work on the next chapter in advance.

This is most likely going to be the final mature chapter in this story. The next few chapters are going to be incredibly lore-focused, so depending on how you look at it, that's either going to be a good or a bad thing.

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed these 2 final slice of life chapters before the main event, because it's all about to get started
