Let Me Hold You

The room, after exploding with gasps and giggles, halted silent as Rarity burst into the house, eyes wide. Clearing her throat, she elaborated, "A mare is slightly late. Upon arriving, she catches a glimpse of her best friends making out and her other friends watching. Guess this mysterious lady's name yet?" Pinkie Pie couldn't hold it in anymore. Snorts of laughter bubbled in her chest, and soon erupted through her as she flopped onto her stomach, hooves hitting the ground numerous times before she gasped for air. "Ohmygosh this is so funny!" She chirped, catching her breath.

Rarity felt her ivory cheeks be dusted with scarlet, a frown passing her muzzle. "Care to explain, anyone?"

A blushing cyan mare, responsible for the event, chuckled nervously. "Er.. Truth or Dare." Nobody tried to explain or question Dash's nervousness, as it was soon answered for them when Rarity mentioned how Dash went overboard last time they played, which soon brought the memories back to everyone's minds. Nothing as intimate as this happened, just a few people got physically hurt with some flying dares when they didn't have wings-- but everyone soon caught notice of Fluttershy and Applejack's faces shining crimson, AJ soon trying to hide it as she lowered her head and her hat slipped forward onto her face, a small sigh heaving her stomach while Fluttershy squeaked an, Ohmygoshohmygoshohmy.

Twilight then cleared her throat. "Moving on. Applejack, it's your turn." The said pony's gaze darted up and she recomposed herself, nudging her hat back onto her head with her hoof sheepishly. "Ahlright." She said, gazing to Rarity for a moment. She supposed she might as well give the purple unicorn a turn. "Rarhity, Truth or Dare?"

The mare glanced about nervously before quickly stating, "Truth." Dash glanced to AJ, saying, "Don't make it something stupid! Do something embarrassing, that's what this game is for." Which resulted in a glare from Rarity, unnoticed by Dash as she expectantly gazed to AJ, anxious to hear what she could possibly question.

"R-Rarity," AJ started with a sigh, but then an unexpected smirk flickered onto her lips. "Who do ya have a crush on in this here room?" Applejack knew she did have a crush on someone in their friend circle. It was undeniable, especially when the mare had partially admitted it to the farm pony. All she knew was that Rarity had a crush on someone, and she wanted to find out who, even though she was given an extremely furious, blushingly guilty glare. Oh, what Rarity would give to knock her friend upside the head right now. But, alas, that was rather unladylike. "Hmmf! Fine. If you must know," The unicorn started, reluctantly but clear. "It's.." Her friends exchanged anxious and worried glances, not sure how to feel if it was them. "I have a crush on.. On Pinkie Pie." The room was silent, but she quickly interrupted. "OKAYMYTURN."

Clearing her throat, she inquired, "Pinkie Pie, Truth or Dare?" Her tone was awkward and somewhat demanding to change the subject. "Daaarreeee~" Pinkie sang, a beam on her face as it always was. She didn't seem phased by Rarity's embarrassing admission toward her. She seemed to have known; but, she truly didn't-- she hardly knew what a 'crush' is. It sounded painful. In a way, it was.

"U-Um.. I dare you.. To-- what's that?" The heat scent of Fluttershy began to waft through the air, causing everyone in the room's faces to redden and for her to ball up. Blinking a few times, Pinkie Pie glanced to the filly. "I'll fix this!" She announced, leading Fluttershy out of the room and upstairs after motioning for the yellow mare to follow, leaving Rarity to longingly watch her deliciously shaped flank as she bounded up the stairs, Fluttershy timidly following after her.
