Rainbow Dash opened her eyes, and blinked 3 times. She was on her side, and there was something warm behind her. She looked down and saw a hoof over her midsection. She smiled as she realized that Soarin was behind her, asleep.

  She lifted up his hoof and crawled out of bed. She looked over at him, "He's going to be hungry once he wakes up. I should go get a apple pie for him." Her face brightened up; "That would make him happy, to wake up to see me holding a apple pie, just for him."

  Rainbow dash put her hoofs to her face, gave a quiet squeal, and ran out the door.

  "I wonder if me and Soarin will get married. That would be so.... NO Rainbow Dash, there is no way he would want to marry you. ..Well, we did kiss, and he seems to like sleeping with me, but he could just be doing it because he feels sorry for me. He will never want to marry me; who would marry me? No pony, that's who." She gave a loud sigh.

  Once she landed in Sweet Apple Acre, she walked towards the barn. She looked around, and said "Hey, Applejack, you here?"

  "Well hey there, Rainbow Dash, how's everything going?" Said Applejack as she walked out of the barn.

  "Hey Applejack, I need a favor. Do you have any fresh apple pies that you could give me?"

  Applejack walked back into the barn and brought out a freshly baked pie. "Here you go, Rainbow." She handed Rainbow Dash the pie.

  Rainbow Dash picked up the pie and put it in her bag. "Thanks, Applejack."

 "Hey Rainbow, why do you keep asking for apple pies? This is the first time you have ever wanted anything from the farm."

  "I...uhhh... I guess I just suddenly have a taste for them." She gave a nervous laugh.

  Applejack looked at her. "Are you hiding something, Rainbow?" She asked with a slight glare.

  "What could I be hiding? I just like pies now." She turned to leave.

  "Come on Rainbow, I can tell you're hiding something. You're hardly around anymore, and you're not acting like yourself." Said Applejack as she walked in front of Rainbow Dash.

  "If I tell you, do you promise to not tell anypony else?"

  "Yes, I promise. Now just tell me."

  "Ok, here's the full story. I was flying over Cloudsdale and I was being followed by a pegasus named Soarin, from the Wonderbolts.Then later on while I was practicing, I started feeling sick, and I passed out in mid-air. Soarin somehow caught me before I hit the ground, but he crashed into the ground. Now his left wing is broken,  so I'm letting him live at my house till he heals. That's why I keep wanting apple pies, they're his favorite thing to eat."

  Rainbow Dash took a breath, and looked at Applejack. She looked like she was trying to process everything she had just said.

  "So his wing is broken, and you're letting him live at your house while it heals." Said Applejack, but then she had a grin on her face. "Let me guess, you also like him."

  Rainbow Dash blushed, "Well... Uhhh... I guess so. He is cute and nice." Then Rainbow Dash's eyes went wide. "Oh no, I have to get home before he wakes so I can surprise him." She jumped up in the air and started flying towards her house.

 "That crazy pony." said Applejack with small laugh.

  Rainbow Dash looked back and said, "I heard that."

  Ten minutes later, Rainbow Dash landed on the steps to her home. She started walking towards her room, and she pulled out the pie. Once she walked into her room, she was pleased to see that Soarin was still asleep. She walked over to him and put the pie down.

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

  Soarin felt something nudging him. He opened his eyes to see that Rainbow Dash was standing in front of him, he gave her a small smile, "I love waking up to something beautiful."

   Rainbow Dash blushed and said, "I have something for you Soarin." She reached behind her and brought out a freshly baked apple pie.

  He sat up and smiled, "Did you go all the way to Sweet Apple Acre to get that just for me?"

  "Yep, just for you." she sat it down and nudged it towards him.

  "Thanks Dash." He said as he picked it up and put it on the floor. "Don't want to get your bed dirty." He said with a laugh as he started to eat the pie.

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

  Rainbow Dash watched Soarin eat the apple pie, smiling the whole time. Soarin finished the pie and looked up, "That tasted great Dash, thanks for doing this for me."

  Rainbow Dash Smiled, "Oh, it was nothing."

  Soarin walked over to her and gave her a two "armed" hug, "Well, it means a lot to me knowing that you would go out of your way just to make me happy."

  Soarin pulled back a little and gave her a small kiss.

  Rainbow Dash started blushing.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Two weeks later.

  Soarin woke up and slid out of bed. He stretched out his wings; his left wing had fully recovered. He looked around; Rainbow Dash wasn't in the room.

  "I should go to Ponyville, look in a few of the stores, and see if i can find what i'm looking for." He went outside, and was about to take off, when he saw Rainbow Dash flying towards him.

  He stood there waiting for her to get to him.

  "Hey Soarin, good to see that your wing is better. Where are you going?" She said as she landed next to him.

  He smiled, "Oh, no where, just going to fly a little."

  She smiled, "Ok, I'm going to fly around also. Maybe we will run into each other."

  Soarin laughed, "We may run into each other. Well I'm off. See you later, Dash."

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

  "Yeah, see you later Soarin." Said Rainbow Dash as she walked towards the edge. She jumped off and flew towards Cloudsdale.  

  "I wonder what he's really up to." She said as she landed on a random cloud. She looked back, "Ummm, should I follow him?" She sat there for a few seconds, "Yeah, I should, we may be able to fly together."

  She started flying after him, but staying far enough away so he won't know she's there.

  He landed at a jewelry store and walked in.

  "What could he be doing here, is he trying to find something or somepony?"

  She landed on a cloud and watched the front door. Soon he walked out with a box between his teeth. He looked around and jumped up and started flying towards her home.

  She started to follow him, but let him be far ahead of her.

  Once he landed at her house and walked inside, Rainbow Dash landed behind him and walked inside slowly. She could see him, but then she heard something upstairs. She walked upstairs and towards her room.

  When she walked in, Soarin was laying the box down on the table.

  "Hey Soarin, what are you doing?"

  Soarin jumped up and moved in front of the box, "Uhhh, I have to ask you something."

  She walked over to him,"Ok, what is it, Soarin?"

  Soarin sat on his hind legs and put the box on his hoof, "Rainbow Dash..." He opened the box to reveal a wedding band,"Will you marry me?"

  Rainbow Dash's eyes went wide and her mouth hung open.

  "OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH"
She thought before saying her answer.
