Applejack has always been Braeburn's favourite cousin. He didn't really know why until recently, when he started noticing the little things. Her laugh. Her smile. Her lips…

Now he's torn between what he knows is wrong, and yet feels so right.

But everypony knows that even if she did love him back, it could never last.

A little Braejack story, short and bittersweet (emphasis on bittersweet), and because I had some free time.
