Chapter 1

Rainbow Dash sat up in bed, and yawned. "What should I do today." She looked around the room, and then had a idea. "I think I should go check out cloudsdale, I haven't been there since the Best Young Flyer competition."

She walked out the door and set off for Cloudsdale.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Soarin sat in his bed looking out the window, "Uhhhh, there's nothing to do. We won't be having show for another four weeks." He sat up and walked out onto the balcony and looked at the city. At first he saw nothing, but then he saw something in the distance.

He looked closer and could see a rainbow colored pegasus flying over the city. "Wait, is that Rainbow Dash, I remember her from the Best Young Flyer competition and the Grand Galloping Gala."

As he watched her fly by the HQ, he had an idea. "They say she's the best flyer around, I think I should follow her and see how good she really is." He started to take off when he had a sudden feeling of nervousness.

He laughed and jump up and flew towards her. Why should he be nervous, it's not like he's going to talk to her or anything, just follow her.

   Rainbow Dash was soaring over Cloudsdale, admiring the grand city. She was flying slow through the clouds. She looked to the left and saw the wonderbolts HQ."One day." Rainbow Dash sighed. She continued flying towards the edge of Cloudsdale.
  
   Then she had a sudden feeling that someone was following her. She turned her head, and saw a pegasus go into a cloud. But she could tell that they was following her. She smiled, ''try and keep up with me,"she said to herself.

   She zoomed straight down towards the ground. Then she took a sharp turn right, and flew through a small forest. She landed in the middle of the forest, in a small clearing. "Guess he couldn't keep up. I knew that he would not be able to." She laughed to herself. She turned and was face to face with another pony.

   She flew back and said, "What the hay, who are you." The mysterious pony stepped out of the shadows. Rainbow Dash gasped, in front of her stood a pegasus from the wonderbolts. "Hey, sorry to have scared you. My name is Soarin. And you are Rainbow Dash, right."

   Rainbow Dash's mouth hung open in shock and surprise. Soarin looked at her,"Are you ok, Dash." Rainbow Dash blinked and tried to recollect herself. "Ummm, yea sorry." she said. Then she smiled and said, "So your in the wonderbolts. You guys are the best fliers in all of Equestria."

   Soarin looked at her and smiled,"Sure am. I saw you fly over Cloudsdale, and I decided to follow you." Rainbow Dash looked at him and laughed, "So thats how you were able to keep up with me. Only a wonderbolt could beat me in a race."

   Soarin gave a slight smile, "Well it wasn't easy keeping up with you. Your a great flyer, and the fastest one i've seen." Rainbow Dash stared at him, "Really, you was having trouble keeping up with me!" She stood there with her mouth open and staring at him. Soarin gave a small laugh, "Well, as far as I can tell. Your the fastest pony I've seen."

   Rainbow Dash blushed a little, then turned away. "Why am I blushing, theres no way I could like him." She thought to herself. Soarin looked at her and said, "Are you ok, your face is red." Rainbow Dash gave a small nervous laugh, "Ummm, yea I've been in the sun all day."

   Soarin smiled and said," Ok, well I need to get back to the HQ for a meeting. Nice meeting you Rainbow Dash." Rainbow Dash looked at him and gave him a small smile. "Do you want to hangout with me sometime. I mean if you want to."

   Soarin walked past her and put his wings up, prepared to lift off. "Sure, I'll catch up with you later. Oh and like I said before, your the fastest pony I've ever seen, even better than some of the woderbolts. And also the cuttest pony in Equestria."

   Dash's eyes went wide, "Wait what do you mean..." But Soarin had already flew off. "Did he just say that I'm the cutest pony in Equestria. Did he mean it? Wait why do I care." She thought to her self.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Stupid,stupid,stupid! Why did I have to say she was the cutest pony in Equestria. I'm so stupid, now she knows I like her. I've liked her since she saved me and the others at the best young flyer's compition. Why did I even follow her. I should have just kept watching her fly around." Said Soarin to himself as he flew towards Cloudsdale. He sighed and looked back, "I hope she didn't hear my last words before I left." He continued flying towards Cloudsdale.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Ok, see ya later Applejack." Rainbow Dash said as she set off for her home. Once she landed on the steps to her house. She walked towards her room. She yawned loudly,"Wow, I'm tired. I shouldn't have slew so much today." She jumped into the air and landed on her bed. She layed her head down and yawed again. "I still can't believe that Soarin said that I was the cutest pony in Equestria. I wonder if he likes me, well he is kinda cute and.... Shut up Rainbow Dash, there's no way he could like you. He was just being nice to you." Thought Rainbow Dash as she slowly fell asleep.
