Days To Come

As I flew to Sweet Apple Acres. I started to think about Fluttershy. I tried to push the thought out of my head, but my guilt got the better of me. I shouldn't have yelled at Fluttershy. I could have taken the blow. But I had to snap back at her. Will she even speak to me again?

As I arrived at the barn, I tried to look for Applejack.

She's probably out bucking apples I thought to myself. Maybe if I just waited, I'll find her sooner or later. But that will just leave me to my thoughts... Locating Applejack it is.

I looked from tree to tree, but I still could not find the orange mare. I then found her, bucking a large tree.

"Need any help?" I shouted down to her.

"Rainbow? I'm fine. But what brings you 'round these parts?" She shouted back.

I decided to fly down to her, wouldn't make sense for us shouting back and forth. I then showed her the box.

"Is that the cake?" Thanks Rainbow." She said filled with gratitude.

"I'm also here to tell you that Pinkie's party is at Sugarcube Corner."

"Well thanks again. Are you going to tell Rarity and Fluttershy also?" AJ asked.

"Yeah. planning on it. I have to go. See you at the party!" I shouted as I started to ascend upward.

Now to Rarity's I thought as I was flying, Rarity's boutique is farther than Fluttershy's cottage, but I want to avoid Fluttershy as much as possible.

"Hey Rarity!" I shouted at the door to the Carousel Boutique.

"Rainbow Dash? Is that you? Please come in." Rarity called from behind the door.

As I opened the door, I found Rarity cleaning up the boutique. Sweetie Belle was with her trying to help.

"I can see you're busy. So I'm going to cut it short. Pinkie Pie's  party is tonight at Sugarcube Corner." I stated. I don't want to stay here for too long because she might try to throw me in some dress.

"Why thank you Rainbow. I think I'll attend the going away party." Rarity replied sounding disconnected.

Before I left, I thought of something. "Hey Sweetie Belle, make sure Scootaloo comes too okay?" I asked.

"Sure thing Rainbow Dash!" She replied looking now excited with now something to do.

As I flew to Fluttershy's cottage, I tried to think of something to say. When I got there, I still could not think of anything. All I could do is knock on her door and hope for the best.

"Fluttershy? It's me Rainbow Dash, can I come in?" As I spoke, I was swinging my hoof in midair. The door swung open, and I was about to knock Fluttershy in the face.

Fluttershy didn't dodge though but tackled me in a suffocating embrace that I thought only Pinkie Pie could do.

"Rainbow Dash! I'm so sorry for being so stubborn could you please forgive me?" Fluttershy pleaded only hugging me tighter.

"Fluttershy... I'm sorry... Too..." Was all I could say for being short of breath from Fluttershy's hug.

She then loosened a little, enough to me to speak clearly.

"I'm sorry for being thick-headed myself. I should have thought that this is what would happen." As I was saying that, I started to hug Fluttershy also.

"The party is tonight at Pinkie's if you want to come." I said to her.

"I'll come. As long as you want me to." She replied.

Well, this turned out better than expected, it's almost sundown, so me and Fluttershy better go to Sugarcube Corner soon.

As we were both beginning to take off, I heard someone call "Rainbow Dash". As I looked towards the sound. I found one pony flying towards me at high speeds. It was Soarin. As he landed next to me, he said, "Come on, we need to go to Canterlot earlier than planned. This is an emergency."
