Previous ChapterNext ChapterRainbow Dash’s POV
Damn cute little thing. The thought of her centered on the forefront of my brain, the way the soft and gentle mare looked, acted and smelt like, the azure eyes, bright pink hair and gleaming coat shined in the sunlight, her demeanor was kind and caring, her voice quiet yet full of warmth and sunlight, the scent of flowers and raspberries wafting in the air, made everything about her special. So special I wanted deep in my heart for her to be my special somepony. My wing stretched and groaned wanting to be let free to soar the skies so as to break my mind from Shy’s directions. Even though she was a very important pony to me, my best friend since we were in flight camp, known each other since living in Cloudsdale together, we’ve been through just about everything, thick and thin. Getting our cutie marks because of defending Shy’s honor, and teaching each other about friendship and Pegasus-ship not only helping Flutters get past some of her pushover behavior and unconfrontational attitude has been the highlight of being her friend.
So being afraid of her knowing my true feelings about her scared me so much that I dare not breathe of word of it, even though all of the ponies in our group knew about it and knew Ponyville knew Rainbow Awesome Dash was a flying homosexual, she was a gay pride banner and wore it with well no pun intend but pride...and guts, and of course radicalness. But what else is a girl like me gonna do? Feeling the need for speed and adrenaline I took off like a Dash of lighting slicing the sky with my strong and sleek wingspan, almost caressing the deep sky blue air, same color as her own fur coat, my angular body dipped into a dive busting through clouds. Digging deeper and deeper into myself, I pushed it hard, everything in me hard until the world tipped and the sky turned gray I bore into my stamina and finally shot straight into the air. Up, higher and faster I broke past the clouds and sun flying past where the air grew thin and Pegasus ponies lungs came in handy, sudden spin and down I went breaking through the air pressure and into a massive sonic rainboom just before the ground came upon me which I gracefully avoided with the quick change of my wings position.
Feeling them ache and burn, I ignored them and pushed on, flying across grass, hills, valleys and trails Ponyville’s outer forest area, knowing nothing of where I was for sure only that I was moving at intense rainbowtastic speeds I flew past Shy’s cottage and smashed right into a tree, very uncool like.

“Oh Dashie! Are you okay Rainbow?! Please answer me!” A sob tore through the young mares throat, trickling tears landed on my chest and face, I moaned despaired by her sounds of distress, she cried out with my noise and hugged me tightly, only hurting my wings and body slightly she whispered out, “Thank Celestia she’s alright, what would I do-.” She let it drop and lifted my unresponsive body, I was carried away before drifting off once more.
Fluttershy’s POV
Worryingly rubbing my hoofs together, I paced the kitchen of my cottage, unaware of Angel’s disgruntled look or the sprinkling rain that now pattered on the roof, but of the time ticking away long and slow like with not much as a sound or movement from my busted up poor Rainbow Dash. Feeling my heart beat in fear, I felt a slight terror come over me, and I flew quickly and swiftly as I could only end up creeping into my bedroom where Dash slept. Pushing the door open, she peeked into she Dash in the middle of the bed still, sleeping soundly her chest rising and falling and her breathing even and relaxed. Her wings were bruised and dirty with cloud dust, her sides sore and sprained I had put muscle relaxing herbal rub on before wrapping her up lovingly and delicate like, now still resting I yawned tiredly.
Finding no other choice or even regret that I had to, blowing out the candle in the bedroom and crawled under the cover gently next to my best friend I hurt deeply on the inside at my friend’s pain and bruising. I prayed to Celestia that Dash would get better quickly, before falling asleep along with Dashie, my secret special somepony.

“FLUTTERSHY!” The piercing scream of Rainbow Dash’s voice tore me straight out of a deep and exhausted sleep, I rolled over to see Dash thrashing and moaning, her head and body convulsing and crying out. “Don’t go!” Rainbow surprised me by crying out, tears unencumbered flowing swiftly down her pale blue face and muzzle, she threw her arms out and begged, “Please I won’t never again, just stay with me!” Knowing the only thing that could possible calm her down was me, I wrapped my hoofs and legs around Dash along with my wings, trying to give comfort to the still sobbing and in pain pony, slowly but surely she seemed to settle down and pasted back into a sound sleep.
My heart beat in hope and in doubt. Did she want me? Or did she just have a nightmare of not wanting to be her friend? I closed my eyes and dared to hope, it would hurt so much if she wanted nothing but kinship and kindness out of this yellow Pegasus.

Rainbow Dash’s POV
Please tell me I’m dreaming, or this is a very cruel reality, the pink haired mare that made my heart ache in want and love was curled around my still slightly injured body, not that she was hurting me physically its just inside she was ripping ever single self-control muscle I had just to stay still. I wanted to run, I wanted to nuzzle into her neck, but most of all I wanted her love. Uncool as being a romantic I was just that, secretly after reading all the Darning Do books I started reading more...Romance. An adventure turned into a passionate and meaningful struggle between battling outside forces and internal ones as well, but this had to be reality because this wasn’t going to turn out good for me. Why do you ask? Because said pony of my dream was stirring right in my hoofs and I didn’t know what to do other than stare at her blankly, frozen by indignation and loyalty to my long time friend.
Her azure eyes opened up to catch my magenta ones, suddenly her face gave me a very soft and happy expression, she lifted her hoof to touch my forehead gently a sigh of relief left the sweet and caring pony before me.
“I’m so glad you're looking better Dashie, I wad really worried about you for a while.” Dashie. She has never called me that before I smashed into her tree due to me not paying attention in the slightest, I felt embarrassed that the pony I was running away from I ended up unconsciously flying to and crashing into one of her trees, surprised that I had ended up in the one place I really couldn’t be. A frown disrupted my inner banter, Shy was frowning at me, her eyes then swooped downwards before a squeaked confession spilled out, “I never know what you're really thinking Rainbow when you just stare at me, did I insult you somehow-” I sat up and pulled Fluttershy’s face up to mine, her breathing stopped, she just looked on at me, like she was waiting for whatever I was going to do. I nuzzled our muzzles together, receiving a gasp from the little mare before I whispered,
“You have not insulted me Shy, I was the idiot Pegasus who did a filly move and crashed into a tree, you took care of me and worried for my safety while I healed, why do you think you’ve insulted me somehow?” Her trembled voice spilled forth,
“Because I called you Dashie and took your pride away by you needing to be healed, I feel as all of this is my fault somehow and I feel guilty, for making you feel doubt.” Doubt? What was Shy talking about? I actually liked her calling me Dashie, I feel grateful for her taking care of me, why oh why does she think these things?
“Shy where is this all coming from? I appreciate everything you have done for me and I hope you do for everything I have done for you, do you think you haven’t tried hard enough or something, because trust me Fluttershy you have done enough, it's I who hasn’t done enough! I’ve been the bad friend and I-” Shy threw herself into my body pushing me back into the bed, she rubbed her face and muzzle into my upper chest and throat wet tears leaking out, I shook Shy couldn’t be crying why is she crying?
“Silly Rainbow Dash, your the reason I’m here alive today if it weren’t for you all those bullies in flight camp would have pushed me to...Do an unthinkable thing. I sit here repaying you every single day for your bravery and friendship that saved my life back then, how can you express to me that you feel as if you’ve been a bad friend?” My heart stopped. Because I love you more than a friend and I wish and pray every single day that I will have you one day as mine. A selfish thought at that.
Fluttershy’s POV
Dash, please. Let me know what’s going on in that secretly sensitive mind of yours I ache to be with you, even if its only deeper into your thoughts. I didn’t know how to be as open as I wanted to be if you weren’t going to open up first if Rainbow doesn’t then she doesn’t like me like that right? Glancing back at her reluctantly, she had a very bright red blush staining her cheeks under her cyan fur, Dashie never even remotely blushed ever what was going through her?
“I guess I have a confession of my own.” Peaking my interest and hope I looked straight at her still red face, she rubbed her hoof nervously on her muzzle clearing her throat she spoke hesitantly, “Ever since winning that race that earned me my cutie mark and yours I wanted so very much to um well tell you of my-” I slipped in closer to Dashie, her eyes wide in confusion and hard spoken partial confession, I thought I knew where this was going but I didn’t want to be convinced by my hopes and not my reality, that would be the worse. Dash was my favorite and closest friend and we grew up together, she was always there to help me, I really idolized her and still do to this day, she was so bold and brave yet here she was trying to say something to me yet unable to clearly do so.
She held my eyes a heartbreaking expression, she was terrified. NO! Dashie couldn’t be afraid, she was my fearless pony who took things by the reins and did whatever she pleased with them, having a grand time in doing so as well, she was mine to stay strong and fearless, so with no fear of my own I said,
“I know Dashie I have f-feelings for you as well.” And kissed her stunned and slack lips. Like that shot life into her she rolled me onto my back on the bed with her, her escalated breath matched mine, I didn’t know what to do besides let Dashie take the lead as she was always meant to, I shivered her front hoof trailed down the side where my wing laid against, making them strain and stiffen in a strange achy motion. Did Rainbow Dash know about the points in the wings that aroused Pegasus? She wanted me?! I whimpered into our kiss, she took a shaky breath and back away from my lips a satisfied grin on her lips, her cyan eyes open and she spoke,
“I’ve waited forever for you to say that.” Blushing at that statement she pulled me up by my legs and brushed my mane back, almost fantasized by it, she buried her nose and muzzle into it and took a deep sniff, I giggled at the sensation and flapped back snorting, Dash threw herself at me and pinned me down, feeling nervous I looked into her practically stormy eyes and caught my breath. She was fascinating mid passion, she could barely breath her chest movements shallow but her stare intense and deep she crinkled in a grin and kissed me this time, her tongue moving against my lips and eliciting a moan from me, I pressed my hoofs on Dash and said,
“Dashie?” She pulled back and gave me a half confused half smirking look, she bent to lick my check and nuzzle my ear before she whispered,
“Yes, Shy?” I slowly said,
“I’ve never done anything like this before, I know with you would be well best dream come true but I don’t think...” Dash looked lovingly into my eyes and made me the happiest pony ever.
“Your ready, or us more precisely, not that either of us would find too much bad to say if any about our coupling but we should try to get to know each other on a more intimate level but not that intimate yet, right?” I nodded happily and threw my forelegs and wings around Dash, almost crushing her in a way, she squealed in protest but I ignored it as I cried out,
“I’m so glad I took this chance to be with you Dashie.” I pulled back suddenly a frown crossing my face, I bit my lip and tugged on a part of my mane. “That is if you want to be with me and not just well you know...” She snorted and kissed my check leaving it with a little nuzzle from her nose.
“Shy, don't you really think if I only wanted to be sexual with you that I would have fucked you years ago?” My whole body lit on fire at the thought of Dashie fucking me in any which way, true I’ve never been more than touched but Rainbow making me hers in the most animalistic and overwhelmingly breathtakingly way possible? That could have its merits if I think about it in a particular fashion. Dashie making me hers as if a stallion would, marking its territory for all to know and see, I rolled against Dash and had her cringe. “Sorry Shy, my wings are still hurting me a bit.”
“We should get you back to bed then!” I pulled back the blankets and had Dash crawled into them, she yawned and said,
“I’ll sleep if you stay with me.” How could I ignore a request like that?
