Prologue

Flim had been walking around Ponyville for days, trying to find the bright red farm called "Sweet Apple Acres." He had been trying to find a certain orange Earth pony with a beautiful golden mane that happened to be tucked under a cowboy hat. He had been dying to see her. Hear her thick country accent. Oh, that accent that just made his heart skip a beat; not to mention her mesmerizing emerald green eyes.

Oh, those eyes. He could gaze into those shining emeralds for all eternity.

The unicorn with peppermint hair stopped when he found himself at Sweet Apple Acres. He smiled, for he was excited to see the lovely orange Earth pony. Flim, then, started sprinting towards the farm, calling her name.

"Applejack! Applejack?!" He moved his head back and forth, searching for her.

"Flim?!" shouted a feminine voice. A voice he knew he would never get tired of.

Flim ran to where he heard the voice, he ran to find her near the watering hole that she and her family would go swimming in.

She ran toward him, her mane and tail flowing behind her as she ran. She tackled him, whilst embracing him at the same him. They both were on the ground, Applejack on top, she giving him tender kisses all over his face.  He smiled, for she looked so happy to see him. Though, she seemed worried as well.

Oh, but no matter what she was feeling or how she looked, the Country gal looked beautiful to him. Always have, always will.

"Now, now Applejack. You can... stop... kissing me... for one moment... and help me... get up!" The pale unicorn said in between kisses. Truthfully, he didn't want her to stop but he was getting embarrassed that the pony he loved was on top of him.

Applejack laughed and then got off of him. Extended her hoof to help him off the ground.

"Sorry, about that, Sugar Cube," she apologized.

"Oh, no worries, my dear," he chuckled, pulling her closer to hm. "Besides, I've never had a welcome like that before."

Applejack raised her eyebrow at the unicorn as he gave her a sly smile. "Ya know, sometimes you jus' get on m'nerves."

Flim then pulled his marefriend closer to him, kissing her full on the lips. He felt her smile against his lips, whilst her hooves wrapped around his neck. He poked his tongue begging for permission before entering. She granted. Flim felt his tongue wrestle with hers. He lifted his hoof up to her luscious, soft golden mane, The unicorn heard his beloved give a soft moan as he ran his hoof through her mane. Then he heard a little giggle. Oh, that giggle. She then pulled away from him. Looking down to the ground.

"What's wrong, Applejack?"

"I've jus' been so worried."

"Why have you been worried, my most favorite apple?"

"Well... I just thought that..." she trailed off, not finishing her sentence.

"Thought what, my dear? Come now, tell me the truth," he told her, cupping her chin with his left hoof. They locked eyes for a moment. Both silent before she spoke.

"Well, I haven't seen you for the past few days and... well, Apple Bloom, Big Mac, and Granny Smith told me that they thought that you and Flam were planning another way to sabotage the farm and make us move out of Ponyville," she admitted, not being able to look at her coltfriend in the eye.

Flim's eyes widened in shock. Not being able to speak for a few moments.

"Whaa-?! No, Applejack, I would never-"

"Are you and Flam going to try to find some way to drive our family apart? Away from our friends?" she began to yell at him now.

"No! Of course n-"

"How do I know you ain't fibbin'?! How do I know ya'll ain't just gonna come here tomorrow and tell my family that this property isn't ours and take it down and turn it into ya'lls little 'Flim Flam Fields'?!" Applejack's eyes were starting to water, showing that she was about to cry.

"No, no, no, no, no, Applejack! Don't cry! Anything but the crying!" he begged. He went to wipe her tears away but instead, his hoof went through her. Suddenly, she vanished into thin air and his brother, Flam appeared by his side.

"Well, done, brother! We've finally taken the Apple Farm from the little family. Now, we can start Flim Flam Fields," Flam said, his left hoof around his brother's shoulder. Laughing in victory,

Flim, however, had a unbelievable expression on his face as he saw the Apple family walking away in sadness and betrayal. It broke his heart to see them go, especially the one he loved with all his heart.

He began running her, shouting her name.

"Applejack! Applejack, wait!"

She turned around to face him, her family included. Sadness in her voice.

"You betrayed us. You betrayed ME!"

"No, no! Applejack, I had nothing to do with this, I swear."

"Forget it, Flim. We're though!" the Country Earth pony snarked at him.

He looked at her in disbelief.

"I will NEVER EVER forgive you for this! And I will NEVER love you ever again!" That was when his heart broke into a million shattered pieces.

"Goodbye Flim. I hope I never see ya'll two in the future." She walked away, her head held high. Her family walking behind her.

"Applejack. Applejack! APPLEJACK!"

Flim gasped, sitting up in his bed. His body covered in sweat from head to hoof,

"What's wrong, brother?" Flam asked him, still half asleep.

"Nothing. Nothing. Just a bad dream."

"Alright then, well, try to go back to sleep. We've got a big day ahead of us."

The mustacheless unicorn laid back in his bed. He turned his head to look at the clock.

3:15 a.m.

He wasn't so sure he could at all the rest of the night, for what he had just dreamt was still locked in his mind: Would she truly never forgive him? If he went back to Ponyville and apologize to her, would she believe him? Will he ever stop dreaming and thinking about that orange, golden maned mare with that think southern accent and hypnotizing emerald eyes? More importantly, will he ever stop loving her?
