Chapter 1

Rainbow Dash leaped down the stairs in her house, running towards the door. She was late for school and for her friends. Rainbow and her friends had always walked to school together but today, she was late. She didn't understand why she had overslept, in fact she still was tired. It made no sense, she was sure that she had slept early and she didn't remember doing anything tiring the day before so how was she sleepy?

"Rainbow! Hurry, no time for breakfast today," Rainbow's mom, Firefly called out."GO, GO, GO!"

"RUNNING!!" Rainbow yelled back. She slammed the door as she ran out of the house, waking up her sick brother upstairs.

"Mooooooooom," he yelled. Firefly groaned. "Great," she said sarcastically as she walked up the stairs to see what the couch potato needed.

"I'm really, really sorry guys. I don't know why I overslept," Rainbow apologized. Rarity gave her a smug face and laughed, the others joined in as well. "What's so funny?"

"Oh Rainbow dash, you were late. Big deal. No need to stress darling it's not like you killed some one," Rarity said once she stopped laughing. "Besides, you act like we've never been absent on our daily walks to school".

"We've all been there," Pinkie Pie added excitedly. Applejack rolled her eyes and snorted.

"Yeah, and some more often that others," she commented glancing at Rarity.

"Oh, quiet Applejack! Some of us care about what we look like!" Rarity protested, opening her locker to reveal a mirror that she used to fix her make-up. Applejack just rolled her eyes a second time.

"Um guys, I don't mean to interrupt your bickering, but we should probably head to class," Fluttershy said pointing at a clock on the wall. The other four gasped.

"I can't be late twice on the same day! See you guys later," Rainbow said, waving goodbye and running towards her math class.

Rainbow entered the classroom in a hurry, but that only drew more attention to her. Everyone looked at her and the teacher stopped what she was doing. She face palmed.

"Ms. Dash," Ms. Harshwhinny started,"You do know you are fifteen, oh, sixteen now minutes late to my class, right?" she huffed in annoyance.

"Well, duh," Rainbow replied. There were giggles all over the classroom as Ms. Harshwhinny gave Rainbow an almost evil glare. "Oh I..I mean, yes ma'am heheh".

Ms. Harshwhinny got back to her lesson as Rainbow took out her journals and math books, all eyes still on her. Students eventually turned around to face the board, all but one who kept looking at Rainbow.

"Soarin Skies?!" Ms. Harshwhinny shouted. "Stop looking at Rainbow for once and finish the equation!" Both Soarin and Rainbow's eyes widened as the class filled with 'ooohs'. Soarin started blushing and Rainbow put her head down to conceal her own flustered face.

"Pfft, yeah, real mature guys," Soarin replied. Him and Rainbow had been friends for a really long time, however he had started to have a crush on her. But no one really knew this besides his friend Thunderlane. Now the better part of the class assumed it.

The class continued for another 45 minutes and then the bell rang for their next class. Rainbow waited by Soarin's locker as he finished talking to Thunderlane about what had happened earlier, but Dash didn't need to know that. He went up to his locker expecting Dash, but he really didn't want her bring up what happened in the class.

"Hey Soar," Rainbow said, as he smiled at her.

"Hey Dash," he replied as nonchalantly as possible.

"So..you were staring at me in class?" Rainbow said smirking. He froze. He was scared of what might happen next. "Hello, earth to Soarin." He shook his head.

"I was gonna ask you why you were so late," Soarin replied nervously. Rainbow rolled her eyes.

"Are we still on that?'' she asked, visibly annoyed. Soarin noticed her sudden change in mood so he tickled her a bit, expecting to make her laugh. He knew Dash all too well, she burst into a set of giggles and soon found herself in his arms. He stopped tickling her as as blushed, both stepping back a bit.

"S-sorry, I just wanted to help", Soarin said after what seemed like hours of awkward silence. He looked at her she was still blushing. Could she?..No, Soarin thought, Rainbow couldn't feel the same way towards him..

"Eh, it's okay. I wasn't really that upset about it, anyway." Rainbow said. Her blush faded as she walked away to her locker leaving Soarin with his thoughts.

"Could she like me?" he asked himself once Rainbow Dash was out of range. He was convinced he really liked Rainbow, but could she actually like him back...?

Rainbow was in her second class waiting for the bell to ring for lunch. She didn't care about the lesson, she just wanted to go to lunch. She hadn't had any breakfast and she was so hungry. Even the sloppy joes sounded good. She also wanted to talk to her friends and attempt to embarrass Rarity in front of Thunderlane again.

The bell suddenly rang and Rainbow ran out of the classroom before the teacher even assigned homework. 'I'll make it up tomorrow' she thought as she kept running to the cafeteria. She saw Soarin getting out of his class along with other students.

"SOARIN!" she yelled tackling him and then pinning him on the ground under her. He blushed seeing the position they were in, but she didn't notice. While she had done this before as kids, now that Soarin had established a crush on her, it felt more intimate. Not to mention the fact that any adult casually walking by could easily get the wrong idea.

"Uh, Dash, you do know we're in public right?" Soarin asked teasingly. Rainbow rolled her eyes smirking.

"Dude don't go there," she said. She got up and extended a hand for him, which he gladly accepted.

"What ever you say, Ms. Dash," Soarin said in a fake English voice. Rainbow Dash chuckled and ruffled his hair.

"Shut up, you dork," Rainbow said. He laughed as he opened the door of the cafeteria, walking in with an arm around Rainbow. She was totally okay with this....for numerous reasons.

New story! Yay!!

Chapter 2

"Hey, Soar, I'm gonna go with my friends," Rainbow said looking up and smiling at him. She seemed to be doing that a lot these days, and she didn't know it, but Soarin really liked it when she did that. He smirked at her.

"Oh so I'm not considered one of your friends?" he asked, still smirking. She just smiled at his goofiness.

"You know what I meant," she replied and walked away to where her friends were in the line, skipping a student or two doing so. He watched until she was nearly out of sight between the crowd of students. She couldn't be completely out of sight, she had rainbow colored hair for crying out loud!

"Hey, Rainbow Dash," Sunset Shimmer said once she saw Rainbow nearing them. The others waved and small greetings escaped their mouths. Picking their food, Rarity decided to go for the question then and there.

"Hey, Rainbow, what was all that about Soarin's arm around you when you walked in?" Rarity asked in a rather teasing, yet concerned voice. The others looked at Rainbow as she quickly blushed, turning away to hide it. "I mean it looked like he didn't want to let go of you when you came over and you seemed pretty comfortable as well," Rarity added, making Rainbow's blush even more visible.

"He was just being a gentleman. Ya know, just cuz' he's an athlete doesn't mean he can't be polite," Rainbow protested, "Besides, how would you guys like it if I overreacted over, I dunno, some guy holding a door for you or something?" she added in a huff.

There was a silence for a moment as the others thought.

"Eh, ah suppose yer right. Ah would feel strange if y'all started gushing if that was the case," Applejack admitted.

"Oh, I guess that was a slight misunderstanding on my side," Rarity started, "and I do understand that you two have been great friends for the longest of time, so I can see he could and would treat you like a princess." Rainbow felt better as Rarity gave in. She then began to think. What would it be like if Soarin treated her like a princess? To always be by her side. To never glance away from her and to stare at her with those handsome emerald green eyes of his.

She blushed at the thought of it, hoping no one would notice. Fortunately, evil was done for the day. She and her friends rushed to the table.

"Good, now that we've cleared all that up, Let's eat!" Rainbow said excitedly, hungrier than ever.

Soarin walked to Rainbow's house in the crisp air of the evening . He wanted to hang out with her and knowing all to well Rainbow usually had nothing to do during the evening, he was gonna pay her a visit.

"Hey, how you been?", Soarin said to himself. "Ugh no, I spend over half time with her at school, that would just sound as if I ignored her or something! Why is it so hard to talk to her now?" he asked out loud hoping no one had heard.

"Okay, Soarin inside voice, calm down," he said to himself as he continued to Dash's house.

Finally reaching the door step, he reached his hand out to knock. However, he stopped and thought about it. It was almost dark, he planned to be there for hours, just talking to her. If he went through the front door there was the possibility her dad could ask him what the heck he was doing there. Yeah...No, not about to happen. So instead, Soarin went around the house to Rainbow's window.

He knocked on her window a couple of times, hoping she heard and waited. Soon it opened and he was climbing into the room.

"Hey, you," Rainbow smiled at him. Okay, he really, really liked it when as she did that. It made him feel like she felt safer around him. He smiled back as he sat down on the bed, just inches away from her. They were used to invading each others' personal space so this wasn't that bad. Still, Soarin only stood there looking at her, not knowing what to say and vice versa for Rainbow.

"Hey, you," he finally managed to say without breaking eye contact. She awkwardly chuckled, him joining in to the weirdness after a while.

"I wanted to talk to you, Dash," he said looking at her straight in the eyes. She felt her heart beat faster thinking about what he could possibly want to talk about that dragged him to where he was.

"About?" Rainbow asked immediately regretting it. She knew he would just walk out now.

"What, do I really need something to talk about?" he started,"Rainbow, I just wanna be with you away from the other kids at school". Her heart raced even faster when he finished that last sentence. He wanted to be with her, she nearly jumped out of her seat.

Soarin however bit his tongue after processing what he had said. But hey she wasn't questioning it so he brushed off. Rainbow laid down on her bed and sighed.

"Hey Soar, how come I feel like I can open up to you about anything?" Rainbow asked. He smiled and lay down beside her.

"That's cuz' you can, Rainbow," he replied turning to face her. She smiled at him, starting to blush a little. Seeing this, his cheeks grew a slight pink too.

"I wanna fly," Rainbow burst out.

Soarin looked at her wide-eyed. Dash could tell he was probably thinking she was crazy. But instead of laughing at her, much to Rainbow's surprise, he smiled at her warmly. "What's got you up at night about this?"

"Well," she began,"Ever since my encounters with the magic that Twilight brought from the other world, I've been getting these awesome feather wings! When I'm flying with them, I get this feeling that I belong up there in the sky," she continued, her eyes glowing brightly with wonder,"I've never felt more free."

He stared at the spark her eyes had while she stared at him.

"That was beautiful Rainbow," he commented. All Dash could do was smile at him."Honestly, the way you described it, flying does sound like freedom. I wish I could have experienced what you did, it would just feel..magical."

"Huh.. so I guess we're both freaks then. Good." Rainbow replied. He chuckled and pinned her.

"Nope just you, I'm the dork remember", he said before tickling her. She burst out laughing as her tickled her to fall on the floor, him still on top of her.

"What the hell is going on in there?" Spectrum asked his wife and son in the living room. "Blitz, go check." His son just rolled his eyes at his dad's laziness, but nonetheless, did as instructed.

Rainbow managed to tickle his sides causing Soarin to weaken. After a few seconds, he was weak enough for Dash to pin him.

"Gotcha!" Rainbow said excitedly in the cutest voice she could manage. They stared at each other for a few more seconds before Blitz entered the room.

"Soarin?!" Blitz said, voice cracking "What are you two doing?!"

Seeing as he was getting angry, she went down and whispered in Soarin's ear. "Run."

Soarin didn't think twice about it, he got out of Rainbow's grasp and ran out the window as fast as possible.

"See you tomorrow, Dashie," he said before closing her window. She blushed at the nickname he had used for her.

"Did he just call you 'Dashie'?" Blitz asked still angry.

"M'hm," Rainbow sighed smiling.

"Oh no!"

Chapter 4

Soarin ran to his house as fast as he could, just wanting to slam the door on his sister or yell at something. He hurried to his room as soon as he got there and slammed the door shut, his mom and sister watching him confused.

He fell on the bed, tired, before his phone buzzed with a text from Fleetfoot saying 'We need to talk'. Before he could even respond he was cut off by a call.

"Hey Fleet."

"Hey Soar, listen I'll get right to the point. Rainbow Dash knows you're hiding something..and I'm roped into helping her figure it out."

"WHAT?! WHY?!"

"Calm down lover boy, I won't say anything. I won't even hint it. I'm mainly helping her cuz' it's not fair to her to have to deal with your stupidity."

"Hey! It's bad enough that you're basically gonna help her find out I love her, you don't need to insult me along with it."

"That's sort of my job genius. Besides, what if she loves you too?"

Soarin thought about the idea of Rainbow loving him. It made him feel so...happy.

"Y-you think so?"

".........."

"Fleet? You there?"

"Yeah, duh."

Fleetfoot knew and she was almost 100%, no doubt sure that Rainbow loved Soarin to death. Of course she couldn't tell him that.

"Anyways I gotta go," Fleetfoot finished.

"Wai-" Soarin managed to squeak before Fleetfoot hung up. She needed a plan, a great one..but what?

Soarin was lying in his bed, thinking of course. If Rainbow really liked him, why hadn't she said anything? She was known to be fearless and went for what she wanted. Of course Soarin knew she was sensitive and breakable on the inside, so was she actually scared of getting hurt? Or did she not feel the same way?

His thoughts were interrupted by a knock at his door.

"Soarin, mom wants to know if you're okay. You've been locked in here since you got back from school."

"I'm fine."

"Okay, now I know something is up, open the door please."

Soarin went to unlock it, knowing well that his sister could jam his lock trying to open it.

"How could you tell?"

"I'm fine' is girl code for 'bitch I'm not okay but I don't feel like explaining it' or something like that."

"Oh..okay then."

"So..whats up?"

He didn't want to tell his little sister about his crush but he knew she wouldn't leave him alone if he kept quiet.

"So you know Rainbow Dash that really pretty girl with Rainbow hair who has come over to our house randomly for the past like nine years? Well, I kinda maybe sorta love her or something but I'm scared to tell her cuz' ya know she could reject me and shit so I didn't tell her. BUTT NOW, she's been suspicious about it since I've been acting weird around her so Fleetfoot is apparently 'helping' her find out what is wrong with me even though Fleetfoot already knows so if she 'accidentally' says anything I'm completely screwed!", Soarin said all in one breath. All Clear Skies could do was stare at him, trying to take in everything he had just said.

"Damn.."

"Yeah that basically sums up everything that has happened in the past few days.."

"Look bro, I don't know Rainbow as much as you do, but I have seen and observed her as well as I could to know that she would never EVER hurt you. She cares about you waaay too much."

Soarin blushed, smiling at the thought of Rainbow caring about him. Even though he aready knew she cared a lot, it still made his heart beat faster by the second.

"I'm gonna go eat dinner and tell mom you're okay. Come down and eat if you feel like it."

"Thanks sis," Soarin said looking up. Clear saluted him smiling back.

She closed the door leaving Soarin alone in his room again. He checked his messages. Nothing. Another couple of knocks on his door ringed throughout the room.

He sighed, assuming his mom didn't believe Clear Skies and was here to talk to him herself. "Come in", he responded, no sign of emotion in his voice. He turned over facing the wall.

"What's got you down?"

His eyes widened at the voice.

"R-Rainbow Dash?" he squeaked.

"Yeah baby, now scoot over", she said leaning on the edge of the bed after entering and closing the door, making sure to lock it.

She called him baby. Yeah, he was squealing on the inside. Nonetheless, he scooted over so she could lay her back on the bed.

They stared at each other, neither of them knowing what to talk about. He turned away knowing well a blush was forming on his face. She was blushing hard too.

"Soooo..."

"Yeah..."

Rainbow Dash turned over so that her back was facing Soarin. She saw what looked like a blue journal.

"Hey what's that?" she said picking it up. Soarin looked over.

"Hmm? Oh crap that's..." he slapped it out of her hands and turned her to face him "that's nothing."

"Okaaay," she said, suspicious at Soarin's response.

He sighed in relief as she smiled at him innocently.

"What are you hiding Soar?" Rainbow asked still smiling at him, eyes beaming.

"Oh..ya know..", he smiled back at her "stuff".

He chuckled. She smiled at him. The tension intensified by the second.

"You're such a dork. You know that right?" Rainbow asked him.

"Yeah...I know," he answered proudly. She hugged him tucking her head under his.

He hugged her back. Not caring about anything else in the world. So there they were, hugging passionately on his bed, neither of them knowing what the heck was going on.

"Well I um..better get going," Rainbow said breaking the hug and getting up from the bed. "Um..bye..heheh."

"Yeah..."

She unlocked the door and walked out of the room. Soarin felt empty and confused.

"Yeah..."

Author's Note

Well that happened. I tried to update ASAP but failed. Eh better late than never. Anyways the journal is part of another fanfic I'm doing but since each entry (chapter) is about 150-300 sumthing it hasn't gone over the 1000 word limit needed to publish it. Welp anyways, take more potatoes and be on your way.

Chapter 5

"Okay, so what do you have in mind?" Fleetfoot said getting a small notebook out. Rainbow handed her a pencil shrugging.

"Don't know yet. Still, this is Soarin we're talking about. We'll just find one of his many weaknesses and torture him into telling us right?" Rainbow replied.

"Yeaaah, no. Soarin already knows we're trying to figure this out, I mean he's probably practicing putting a tough face on as we speak."

"MOOOM, MAKE ME A SANDWICH!", Soarin yelled laying across his messy bed.

"Besides, shouldn't we try looking for clues first?" Fleetfoot suggested.

"Hmmm. You're right, we'll talk about this more after school. For now, just document anything weird, I'll do the same."

"You think you'll be able to figure it out before it's too late?"

"I have to..."

"You're serious about this aren't you?", Fleetfoot asked looking her straight in the eye.

"Yeah...don't tell him," Rainbow said, leaving Fleetfoot alone in the gym.

"HA, wait till' Thunderlane hears about this storm!", Fleetfoot laughed at the table next to her.

"G-get it?! Thunderlane, storm!", she chuckled elbowing the table. She stopped laughing and looked around the gym. "Yeah, I need more friends..."

"Oh and simply must compliment your sports jacket! I love how you customized it into looking more unique...like you," Rarity said trying to flirt with the mint haired boy.

"Uh..thanks", Thunderlane answered unaware of the fashionista's intentions. "I like your dress too. Oh and your hair, it's so soft yet perfect?" he said petting her head.

"Oh um...thank you very much," Rarity responded blushing.

"Hey Thunderlane!" Fleetfoot shouted across the hallway. Thunderlane turned around to see her as Rarity crossed her arms. She had heard Fleetfoot used to have a crush on Thunderlane and wasn't going to take that chance.

"Hello Fleetfoot, why are you here, may I ask?" Rarity said with an evil glare as Fleetfoot walked over to them.

"Really Rares? No "Hey Fleet" or "How you doin'?" Fleetfoot asked teasingly.

Rarity cleared her throat. "Well that is Rarity to you and no I don't have much interest in how you or your day has been."

"Damn. Ok then. Well Thunderlane can I speak to you alone please?" Fleetfoot said. Rarity glared viciously at her.

"About what exactly?" Thunderlane replied.

"Well it's about Rainbow Dash and Soarin."

"Oh, in that case I'm sure Rarity could hear about it too," Thunderlane smiled at a smirking Rarity. "After all, she is one of Rainbow's friends, right?"

Fleetfoot looked back at a smug looking Rarity.

"Alright, alright. Point Rarity."

"What?"

"Nothing!" both replied quickly.

"So what's up with Rainbow and Soarin?" Thunderlane asked changing the topic.

"Soarin has been REALLY awkward. Rainbow wants to get to the bottom of it. I'm wrapped into helping them both knowing very well everything that's going on," Fleetfoot answered.

"We all know Soarin has a crush on Rainbow..right?" Thunderlane asked, receiving nods from both of them.

"And we know that Rainbow has a crush on him?" Rarity added. Again, nodding intensifies.

"How do we get them together?" Fleetfoot asked. They all looked at each other with pleasing faces and ran to the gym to start their own scheme.

Soarin had finally gotten to school, late, and was talking to Spitfire. She was so far the only one of his friends who didn't even assume he had a crush on Rainbow so he could talk to her about the team.

"And then, Fire Streak score the final goal for our team and we got to eat the rest of the pizza!" Spitfire finished.

"Cool...what flavor was the pizza?" Soarin asked. Spitfire looked at him like he crazy.

"The flavor of the pizza wasn't the point of the story," she said annoyed.

"Oh right. I've just been kinda distracted," Soarin responded.

"Distracted? Distracted with what?" Spitfire asked curiously.

"Things."

"What things?"

"THINGS."

"Which are?"

"OH MY GOSH SPITFIRE, I WILL SLAP YOU."

"Sure you will."

"GAH," he yelled as he imagined squeezing her head into the size of a grape.

He saw Rainbow walk in the hallway past Spitfire and calmed down now aware that Rainbow could possibly hear or see him. Instead of brushing it off however, he followed her leaving Spitfire to think of why she had just been yelled at.

Soarin followed Rainbow Dash to a dark family bathroom at the back of the school.

'What the heck? What is this place?' Soarin thought.

It said "Out of Order" on the door, yet Rainbow walked in casually. As if she had been there before..

Soarin threw something between the door before it closed and went inside after making sure she wasn't looking. Luckily for him, the only toilet in this family bathroom was inside a stall, so as quick he could he crawled into, it locked it, and peeped through the edges.

Then he paused. 'What the actual fudge was he doing?!'

He was about to just run back out of there when he heard soft music through Rainbow's earbuds. He peeked through the edges again to see her softly brushing her hair.

She was beautiful in his eyes. More than anything he wanted to rush out there and brush her hair for her. But he couldn't..which really sucked.

The music got loud enough for Soarin to make out what it was saying.

"You're the light, you're the night. You're the color of my blood."

Soarin swore he had heard the song before. At the moment however, it didn't matter, Rainbow began caressing her hair with her fingertips slowly.

"...You're the the only thing I wanna touch..Never knew that it could mean so much...so much."

Soarin bit his lip backing a way a bit before he looked creepy. Creepier. He didn't wanna seem like a pervert..or a stalker.

".......You can the see world you've brought to life, to life."

Rainbow put her hands on her hips, right on the left side, left on the right side.

"So Love me like you do, lo lo love me like you do. Love me like you do, lo lo love me like you do..."

Rainbow started taking of her shirt slowly, Soarin watching her every move.

"Touch me like you do, to to touch me like you do..."

Soarin held his breath.

"What are you waiting for...?"

Author's Note

That escalated really quickly...

Also don't worry Soarin is not a perv or a stalker he was just caught in the moment...all will be resolved in the next chapter.

Don't hate on it too harshly please..just tell me if you guys want domething similar in the future (no clop of course) this is teen rated..not mature so don't cross that limit.

I'll go sit in the corner for this now...

Chapter 6

"Soarin? Earth to Soarin!", Spitfire tried to get his attention, waving her hands frantically in his face. "SOARIN!!"

"Huh, what, huh?", Soarin responded shaking his head. He wasn't aware of what had just happened but he remembered seeing Dash shirtless.

"You've been standing there and staring off into space for THREE MINUTES!", Spitfire yelled annoyed. "What are you even looking at?" Spitfire turned around to see nothing special in particular.

"I...never mind", Soarin sighed and walked off.

"-and then he just walked away!", Spitfire finished. She was now in lunch explaining everything to the team. "He's such an idiot, I'm telling you, as soon as the coach promotes me, he better step up his game or he'll be demoted to waterboy..."

The table surrounded with snorts and laughter, mostly from the girls, some who had crushes on him. Misty Fly was the first to speak up.

"Well, are you sure you have no idea what he could've been staring at?", she asked. Spitfire tapped her chin and hummed.

"Actually, I think I heard something fall before he looked behind me and died for three minutes...but it was the custodian who dropped all the stuff off her cart when it rolled away".

The team looked at Spitfire confused. She dropped her sandwich and looked up. "I mean the cart rolled away".

"How?", Surprise asked. She gasped, "Do you think it was...ALIENS!"

"No. It's never gonna happen, give it up", Spitfire said to a grumpy Surprise. "I don't know what it was but it seemed to catch Soarin's attention".

Soarin was walking down the hallway feeling like an idiot. For two reasons really. One, he had stared of into space and got yelled at for it, Two, he had imagined Rainbow taking her shirt off. In a way, he felt dirty and guilty for thinking about Rainbow Dash like that. He wanted to erase that from his memory and be pure. Whatever that meant.

"You ok, babe?", Rainbow sneaked up behind him. "You're thinkin pretty hard there, I'm assuming, is everything ok?"

"Uhh..yeah, I just, so and then..yeah", he answered. She chuckled. "Wait what did you call me?" A blush formed on his face.

"Babe? Remember when we were 12, you said you were one", she said slightly embarrassed thinking about what he had maybe interpreted, "adorable when you look back at it".

"No. I was anything but adorable", he said unamused. She laughed some more as he rolled his eyes smiling. "Anyways, I have something for you".

Rainbow stopped laughing and looked up."Really? What is it?", she asked as he took of his backpack. He started unzipping it and took something out of it.

"Well remember when you told me you wanted to fly?", he asked.

"SHHHH!!! Not in public!", Rainbow panicked. Soarin teasingly rolled his eyes again.

"Ok, well you remember?", he said in a much softer voice.

"Yeah..."

He opened his notebook and landed on a page with what looked like robotic wings. Rainbow gasped. "That looks awesome! Are they wings?"

"Whaddya' think, babe?", said sarcastically. She stopped looking at the sketch and lightly punched hom in the arm.

"Hey!", she said defensively. Soarin looked over at her.

"Well if you're gonna call me that, I see no flaw with me doing the same", he replied rubbing his arm. Rainbow looked away to try and hidethe small blush forming on her face. He noticed her discomfort and took it back."Uhhh, but if you would rather I keep calling you Dashie, I'm ok with that..hehe"

"It's ok Soar, you can call me whatever you want", she said staring at him straight in the eyes. He stared back and smiled at her.

Ok, now she was starting to really like it when he did that.

"Um, anyways back to the outline model", he said awkwardly, breaking the gaze. "I was thinking we could make the wings a little heavier on the rim and lighter on the inside."

"Awesome! But we have to remember the articulations will be kinda heavy too", Rainbow replied.

"We'll make them smaller. That way they're lighter and easier to move", he suggested.

"Great!"

"What do you think they're doing?", a fancy sounding female voice whispered.

"He told me he was making wings for her or something", a brash male voice replied next to her.

"Aww that's so sweet...in its own way", the first voice cooed.

"All very exciting I'm sure, but we need to get this plan of ours figured out", a new voice said.

"Well there you go. He's making wings for her, we can help him out, right?", the fashionista replied.

"Sadly princess, that's not a scheme I'd part take in..it needs to be something behind their backs. Something so friggen great, we'll be royalty on these halls!", the male voice puffed.

"Yeah, "princess", we gotta think bigger!"

"I've got it!", the fancy voice whisper shouted.

"Great!"

"So we'll work on this more tomorrow right?", Soarin asked gathering his notes. He and Rainbow had been working on the wings for hours now.

"Duh...Uh I mean right. Hehe.", Dash answered. She felt like she was kinda rude considering what he was doing for her. Soarin eyed her a bit.

"Hey just cuz I'm a guy doesn't mean you have to be nice around me, you've known me for years", he said smiling, not entirely sure of what he meant by it.

"Hey, when have I ever acted nice near a guy? I usually just blend in with them", Dash replied.

"Oh, well if you're not trying to be nice cuz I'm a guy, why are you being nice to me?"

"Because we've been friends for years, you said it yourself"

"Oh right, all those years and yet you start now"

"Just cuz I didn't wanna be rude doesn't mean I'm going out of my way to be nice to you..."

"True....alright then see you tomorrow", he said suspicious. She rolled her eyes and smiled.

"Yeah see ya then. Thanks for keeping the lights on for us, Ms. Cheerilee!" Rainbow said as she and Soarin walked out of the library.

"Of course Miss Dash, first I've seen you here in a very long time", Cheerilee said joyfully. She closed the doors behing her and looked at Rainbow. "Because of your little project, I expect seeing you more often?" Rainbow nodded, strangling her back in one hand and reaching out to grab Soarin's with the other.

"I'll take that", Soarin said grabing Dash's hand before she grabbed his. Turning away blushing, she could hear him chuckling in amusement. Pfft.

"Typical. Dork."

Rainbow started walking off to her house, all in all happy about the day. Except for the minor incident, of course.

"Hey Dashie!", Soarin called out. She turned around.

"Yeah babe?"

"I totally saw you jump into the janitor's cart complety covered in ketchup"

Shit.

AFTER YEARS!! Take more of my cwappy writing! YAY

Did you see that last part comin? 0w0 Did ya??? You probably did. Did you see the first part coming???? Yes? -_- Buck..ok then

Bonus Chapter*

"You know Thunderlane, I'm really glad we're working on this little scheme together"

"Me too Rarity, me too"

She sighed. "I actually never thought my little Dashie would ever, ever have a crush. I always expected she would get her first kiss from a dare or so and if she ever did fall in love, it would be as an adult, without the drama. Yet here we all are, its good to see how far my friends have come to like each other"

"Yeah. With me, complete opposite. Back when we were all kids, I always thought Dash and Soarin would end up marrying each other or something. The way those two were, I don't think I'll ever find that".

"Your story doesn't need to be the same to ensure your love is true..."

"Oh?"

"You know I- I think there's someone who'd be willing to give you that experience. The love experience.."

"Oh really? Who might that be?" He smiled.

"Fleetfoot". His smile vanished.

"Fleetfoot?"

"Yes well she has a bit of a crush on you..or used to so I've heard. I'm still pretty sure she likes you."

"Well don't you?" Rarity turned away from him.

"Thunderlane..you and I are as different as fire and rain. I wouldn't want you suffering by how I am, by how different we are"

"But I could change a bit".

"We both know that wouldn't be fair to you"

"But I-"

"You belong with someone who understands you. Someone who is like you....I'm not like you. Rainbow and Soarin are perfect for each other because they understand one another. They share similar interests and have similar personalities. They'll be happy. We wouldn't be..."

"Well if you feel that why then why do you always try to flirt with me? Why do you always get jealous when some girl is checking me out?! Why did you take all that time making me like you if you're just gonna turn me down?!"

"Well I...I just thought.."

"What? That you could just play with my emotions like that!"

"No I mean..-"

"Just because I'm not like you doesn't mean I'm not sensitive like you are!"

"Look I just think it's for the best"

"Well then maybe you should stop hang over my head like that!"

"And maybe you should stop yelling at me as if this isn't hard for me too! Maybe you and Fleetfoot should just work on your scheme by your selves!"

"Fine I'll go find someone who "understands" me".

"Fine. Do what you must."

He left in a huff as Rarity turned around and cried to herself. She scratched out all the notes for the plan and dumped them into the trash can. Just she was about to tear herself apart, Pinkie swooped in next to her.

"Hey Rares! What's wrong with my super pretty, creative friend?"

"Oh nothing, Pinkie. Nothing you would truly understand".

"Hmmm. Well, how about we get the girls and go out for ice cream? We can all talk about it then!"
"That'd be nice Pinkie, thank you".

"What friends are for. Plus you really need to get all this drama out of your system before it disrupts any more of Rainbow's story!" She giggled.

"Rainbow's story?"

"Yeah..duh"

"Ummm....how about we go get that ice cream now?"

Author's Note

Quite possibly the only small chapter I'll ever write in this Fanfic
It's not going to be the only bonus chapter i write, but theres a chance it will be the only Rarity × Thunderlane bonus chapter. Next one will probably have RD and Pie lover!

Until next time my pony loving friends!

Chapter 7

"What!? How did you? When did you?", Rainbow stuttered. After everything, he brings that up now.

"I was bored talking to Spitfire so I looked back and I saw you covered in ketchup, but you quickly jumped into the cart. Poor janitor. Why did you do that anyway?" Soarin replied looking her in the eyes, her biggest weakness possibly. She couldn't resist anything after that.

"I was dared to try to to pull off a crazy stunt in the kitchen, seriously what kind of dare is that by the way, and I crashed into the sauce drawers", she answered.

"And.....?", he pried.

"Well I was trying to go wash up in the bathroom but I saw you on the way and I didn't want you to see me like that. But sorry, I guess that didn't work", she continued.

"Obviously",he said sarcastically. He didn't really care that had been covered in ketchup. She still looked...beautiful, tomatoes and all.

"You're not helping buddy", Rainbow said punching him in the arm. He chuckled and hugged her in attempt to annoy her. Her soft scent of lavender filled his nose, almost teasing-like and he loved every second of it. So much that he almost forgot in entirely what he was trying to in the first place and kind of just enjoyed a small moment, doing his best not to get sidetracked. She shuffled around trying to break from the hug, almost as if she knew what he was trying to do. But in anyway, SUCCESS!

"Poor, poor little Dashie. Does she need a soft little hug to feel better?", he teased. He carefully lay his head on hers, feeling her soft hair on his cheek. He just wanted to stay there messing with her, in a flirtatious way though.

"Shut up you dork..". It was a good thing he was hugging her from behind. Otherwise, he would've seen the sidden blush forming on her face. She just didn't know how to feel with that guy...how she should act. But she wanted to stay in his embrace and he knew that, otherwise, she would've already elbowed him in the stomach.

"Of course baby", he said hugging her tightly. Now she was definitely blushing. Red. He was driving her crazy, then and there, and was nothing she could do about is but savour the moment.

"Screw you", it all ended too quickly as she denied having those kind of feelings toward anyone, even if she wanted to have them for him. She struggled out of his embrace and turned to face him. "Still, why would you bring up the whole cart incident now? Didn't you have all the time in the world back there?"

"Well, yes, but I was more interested in the wings at the moment", he side smiled at her "besides, I wanted to have something to talk about while we walked to your place".

"You're coming over?", she asked surprised. While him coming over was usual, she looked around and it was sorta dark and besides, her room wasn't exactly in tip-top shape at the moment. "Wait isn't kind of late for that?", Rainbow asked, not exactly knowing what to say.

"Yeah but I'm spending the night", he replied as calm as ever. He really was excited, but he didn't want get ahead of himself.

Rainbow almost swallowed her own saliva,"Woah. Really?", she asked even more dazzled, already a completely different reaction to what Soarin had in mind.

"Yeah, it'll be fun", Soarin smiled.

"If I had had a drink, I would totally be spitting out right now. We haven't had our trademark sleepovers in years!". She had to use all her saneness to not squeal.

"Yeah, my parents stopped letting me after we were twelve. Said it would be "inappropriate" or something and then they gave my a talk that scarred me for life". Rainbow had to stop herself from making a sex joke, and he noticed it too. He pushed her into the grass in a teasing manner.

Rainbow snickered."Well what changed their minds?", she asked picking herself up.

"The wings. I told them it was an important project and they let me come but the said they would call me often, to check on me, I guess", Soarin explained. Rainbow just continued walking by his side and kept a mental note to not make sex noises if they called.

"Then let's use this as a chance to show our responsibility!", she tapped her chin "if nothing happens...."

"What do you mean by happens?", Soarin interrupted.

"They'll let you sleep over more often!", she finished ignoring him.

Author's Note

Sorreh fer le short chapter.
I want to leave good stuff for the next one sooooooo....yeah.
Besides, its just the seventh chapter, we have to be patient my pony friends. Patience is key :eeyup:

Also, Rainbow Dash is best lavender smell.

Chapter 8: PARTE UNO

Rainbow Dash was extremely excited about Soarin sleeping over. For years now, he hadn't been allowed to and Rainbow had really missed violently punching him with pillows, especially since he would always lose the fights. However, this time, she had something else in mind. Not too risky, yet not too subtle. She was planning on teasing him a bit. Just a bit.

After, like, an eternity of reasoning with not only her dad, but her brother as well, they were starting to sort out Rainbow's room so that Soarin could put some of his stuff down. Most of it being tools, mini pies, and blankets, extremely soft blankets.

"Hmm. We should try moving that drawer a little more to the left", Soarin professionally suggested. Rainbow held back a snort and rushed to help him pick it up.

"Whatever you say, babe", Dash smirked while she carried the drawer.

Soarin laughed a bit. "Professionalism, Miss Dash".

"Screw professionalism", Rainbow replied flatly.

"Miss Dash, if want to keep your job as my personal nut job, you must be professional", Soarin said in his best impression of his math teacher. Now it was Dash's turn to laugh.

"That made absolutely no sense", Dash commented still laughing a bit.

"Neither does life", he defended and set the drawer down as soon as Dash felt the wall. She nodded in a agreement, and defeat, and then lay her back against the wall.

Suddenly, her door pushed open to reveal her mom holding a plate of chocolate chip cookies, a small snack for the two.

"Knock, knock! How's everything going in here? Soarin, you done setting your stuff down?", she asked a bit perky. While she wasn't showing it, for the sake of her husband, she was actually very happy that Soarin was helping out Rainbow with this. To Soarin's unawareness though, Firefly knew well what romantic tension was going on between the two but decided to keep it to herself rather than confront and/or probably embarrass the two.

"Um..every thing is going great and no..not yet", Soarin answered sheepishly. He had always felt very close to Rainbow's mom, he even called her mom once or twice. However, he still felt really embarrassed to talk to her much because of everytime he had accidentally complimented Rainbow near her. He got the feeling that maybe she was catching on, maybe that's the reason why she always defended him from Spectrum and Blitz. He shook it off though and just assumed she was being nice.

"Well if any of you lov-KIDS, KIDS need me I'll be in the kitchen..." she studdered, "probably eating...OH and these cookies are for you"

Firefly mentally facepalmed and nervously backed away. She really had to be more careful and actually THINK about what she going to say..

"That was weird", Rainbow commented "you think my dad's assumptions are finally getting to her?", she added with a laugh. He sat down on her bed and motioned her over so they could rest and eat the cookies.

"Probably, I mean they already got to your brother", Soarin added with a smile, "Everyone in you family hates me!", he joked, putting a cookie in his mouth and pretending to be one of those dramatic divas. Rainbow slightly leaned on him and looked up.

"I don't hate you...", she said quietly, almost a whisper. Soarin got chills down his spine and almost choked on his cookie.

The two just sat there for a couple minutes, eating cookies every so often. After a bit Rainbow rested her head on his shoulder, giving Soarin even more glorious torture. He loved it, but hated it at the same time. He worried that if he didn't tell her soon, he would never have that same feeling of excitement he had just then. Unknown to him, Dash worried too. However her worry was different, she didn't know what she was feeling. She liked him, yes, but she couldn't admit it to her self that she loved him...did she love him? Why was this all so confusing to her?

"So sorry I forgot to-....", Firefly trailed off. Seeing that her daughter was laying on his shoulder, she realized they must have been having a moment. "Oh my, uh...sorry, sorry, sorry...I was just, oh why am I here again? Oh right milk for the cookies...here just..just take it and I'll be going now, hehe"

She speed walked to the door and mouthed the word "sorry" in Soarin's direction as she stepped out. "Yep, she knows", Soarin thought outloud, unware that Rainbow could, ya know, hear him.

"What was that, babe?", Rainbow asked confused at her mom's and her friend's weirdness. Why was everything so confusing now?!

"Oh, its nothing. Inside joke", Soarin responded, trying to not panic. Again.

Rainbow stared him in the eyes for about 30 seconds before remembering her plan.

"Well okay...I better go change into something more comfortable to sleep in..", she said, hoping he would suspect anything "uh if you want you can go ahead and change in the bathroom, I'll be in my closet"

"Uh, sounds good. Its not a sleepover until pajamas are put on", he joked, studdering a bit. Rainbow had to hold back a laugh and just giggled.

"You are such a dork", Rainbow teased, making him grin sheepishly in embarrassment.

She slowly walked to her closet, making sure that he was still looking at her. He brushed some hair out of his face and leaned back on her bed a bit. Stepping in before closing the door, she gave him a sly wink and turned around pulling the door with her foot. He gulped as he was able to catch a glipse of her taking off her shirt before the door shut.

".......shit", he whispered to himself. This was definitely not what he had intended, it was better in a way, but not what he intended. Calming himself down, he grabbed his bags and ran over to the bathroom. His phone buzzed.

"H-hello?", he slowly answered. He knew it was his parents, it had to be his parents. Maybe it wasn't too late to go back home..

"Hey sucker! How's it going with your princess?", he heard what sounded like a familiar teenage voice.

"Clear Skies? What are you doing?", he almost yelled.

"Better question is, what are YOU doing with Skittles over there?", Clear asked smirking, though he couldn't exactly see it, he knew that's what she was doing.

"Nothing, just don't call again!", he screamed through the line,"it isn't any of you business!"

"Like your little journal?", she asked, knowing he had him there. "Dude who knew you were so weird...oh wait, everyone"

"You're..I.. UGH JUST STOP! For once can't you just leave my love life alone?!"

"I should say the same for you! You promised me you weren't gonna tell dad about my boyfriend, I trusted you!", she yelled back.

He put his phone down and hung up. He was gonna deal with his sister later. It was too late to run from this sleepover now, no matter what, he was going to spend the whole night. And most of the morning.

"What to wear, what to wear?", Rainbow pondered outloud. There were all sorts of comfortable clothes in her closet, but she needed some thing loose. And short. "Aha! This is perfect!"

She quickly put it on and made sure one of the straps from her top was nearly sliding off her shoulder.

In the bathroom, Soarin was nearly done changing. He was wearing a simple blue T-shirt with his special mark on it, green gym shorts and plain blue socks. Something extremely comfy and he could move around alot really easily. He wet his face a bit so that he could have enough energy to atleast stay up till' 2 AM, and then proceeded to walking out of the bathroom.

"Hey Dash, you almost done?", he asked through the closet door. He didn't want to waste anytime getting this party started.

"Yeah, just gimme a minute!", she slightly yelled back through the door, not entirely sure if he could hear her. This was certainly gonna torture him.

Soarin decided to sit down and turn on the game system installed to her TV. He didn't know girl code as much as his siter did, but he was pretty sure "give me a minute" didn't mean "give me a minute".

As he played a bit, Rainbow opened the door slowly, giving it that weird screeching sound, which Soarin noticed. She stood there for about three seconds, giving him enough time to turn around and drop the controller.

Author's Note

Alright, alright. Lemmi explain

So you see, this sleepover thing is gonna play a huge role in the over all story so it can't just be, ya'know, one chapter long. Having only one chapter with 2,000+ words would probably get boring, if it already isn't. I don't know if this is gonna be a two parter of a three parter but I definitely know there will at least be another part to this chapter.
To sum up what's happening, Soarin and Skittles are getting settled in for the sleepover and then some. Also for those who know of Soarin's diary thing, Clear Skies found it! And she's reading it!!!! :O

Stay tuned for the next one ^^

Chapter 8: Pt2 bruh

He couldn't move. He just sat there, speechless. His mouth was hanging wide open, a blush forming on his face. Oh great. Am I gonna start drooling?

Rainbow Dash stood before him wearing a simple, tight-ish black tank top and matching shorts. Really short shorts. To compliment it, she was also wearing some knee high socks, striped in black and dark purple. Her hair was in a slightly messy braid and hanging on the side of her neck, tied with a loose ribbon.

"Is everything okay, Soar?", she pretendedly asked, knowing fairly why he was staring."Cat got your tongue?", she added with a smirk as he continued.

"I...you...w-well..". Dash couldn't help but giggle at his response, he was such an adorable goofball.

"Dude, look I know it's easy to get starstruck in front of the one and only Rainbow Dash but, we've hung out for years. I thought we were cool", she commented, a hint of drama on the last bit. He shook his head a few times, mentally slapping himself. He probably looked like an idiot right now!

"S-sorry, I just uh...uh..", he studdered.

"Yes?"

"Well you..you look...", Soarin managed. C'mon Soarin, keep it together! "You look um....great. Really great", he added with a nervous chuckle. Dash looked down, feeling a bit disappointed, but told herself he was probably just covering up, considering his blush was still extremely visible.

"Um..thanks". She looked up at her TV. "Watcha' playin'?"

"Huh?", he returned his attention back to the television, "oh, just Super Mario Bros."

"Nice, can I play?", she asked sitting next to him. He fliched a bit at this, caught off-guard, but smiled back.

"Um sure, it's your game anyway", he replied casually. Well, as casually as he could with his crush sitting next to him in her revealing pajamas. She was wearing KNEE HIGH SOCKS.

"Hey Soar?", she asked looking up from the game a bit. "Who were you talking to on the phone earlier?"

"Oh, just Clear Skies", he replied honestly.

"What'd she say?", Rainbow continued. While she normally wouldn't be nosy, she had heard Soarin yell something about a love life. THAT was intriguing.

"Nothin much, just basic siblings rivalry hehe", Soarin answered nervously.

"Right..", Rainbow said suspiciously. Basic sibling rivalry seemed to cause love problems apparently.

Before Soarin could ask her about it though, there was another knock on the door. "Hey, is everyone gonna try and stalk us tonight?", Dash joked. In all seriousness, she wanted to be with Soarin. Alone. Maybe, then she could find out why he made her feel so weird.

"At least be thankful they knock", Soarin said a bit serious. Rainbow opened the door only to se her brother standing there in front of her.

All he could do was stare. His, HIS little sister was wearing something completely inappropriate in front of her crush who had a crush on her except they weren't together because neither of them new about the the other's crush, other than Dash maybe a bit and OH GAWD BRAIN CRAMP.

"What are you wearing?!", Blitz yelled at the top of his lungs. "WHEN DID YOU GET THAT STUFF? WHY ARE YOU-"

"SHUT UP, I'M WATCHING A MOVIE!", Firefly yelled downstairs. "What does a woman need to do to get some quiet time around here?"

He queited down upon hearing his mom's screaming. Good thing his dad was a deep sleeper."Why are you dressed like that?", Blitz slightly whispered to her.

"Oh this", she started "its just a little something I put together for the occasion", she whispered back and looked over at Soarin, who couldn't hear a thing.

"You guys aren't gonna...you know....", Blitz asked worriedly, receiving a slap from his sister. "Ow.."

"You gotta be kidding me...NO!", she whisper shouted. "I'm not you!"

"What's that supposed to mean?!", he whisper shouted back.

"Many things", she teased. Blitz stood straight and folded his arms annoyed.

"Uh guys?", Soarin asked feeling completely ignored. Rainbow and Blitz turned to see Soarin, who was just smiling sheepishly.

"Sorry babe", Dash smiled, yet she immediately regreted it as Blitz started yelling like a maniac again.

"WHAT?!"

"BLITZ I'M SERIOUS ABOUT THE YELLING!", Firefly shouted once more. Blitz rolled his eyes.

"WELL, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!", he called back, irritated considering the problem he was facing was extremely serious. To him. No one else gave a potato.

"EXCUSE ME?!",Firefly spat as she started climbing up the stairs. Who the heck did her son think he was? He was not about to get away with yelling at her like that, not if she had anything to say about it. Rainbow slowly crawled back into her room a bit while Soarin ran behind the bed. Firefly got right in front of Blitz, her eyes like daggers."You wanna run that by me again son?", she angrily whispered.

The now terrified teenage boy loudly gulped and mentally prepared himself for violent death. "N-no mommy, I'm ok..."

Rainbow and Soarin used all their common sense of their situation to retain composure and not burst out laughing. Firefly looked at Blitz for about a second before grabbing his collar and yanking him away from the door. "Don't. Disturb them. Again."

The door in Dash's room closed eagerly."Okay, definitely different from last time", Soarin joked, causing Dashie to snicker.

"Well now that that just happened, what do you feel like doing?", he continued. Dash thought for a sec. Hmm, what could give him that extra push? Hmmm. That's it, I've got it.

"We could play twister!", Rainbow suggested, causing Soarin to almost die. Again.

"Twister?", he asked, his voice cracking a bit at the end. "Don't you think that's a little..um..complicated?"

"Well, I'm very flexible, ya know", Dash slightly bragged.

"Yeah, thats what I'm afraid of", he teased. However his tone was a bit more serious than usual.

"Ok, your turn". Dash smirked as she spun the arrow. They had been playing the game for only ten minutes and they were already awkward. She was on top of him, one of her legs was some what wrapped around his waist. He had an arm extended past her butt somehow. That's all I'm gonna tell ya, just so we can keep this teen rated.

"Uh, Dash I think I'm starting to give in...",Soarin said meekly. Rainbow gave him a begging look.

"Dude c'mon, stay strong!", she motivated. In all reality she could tell that he was uncomfortable and the crimson blush on his face only proved it. She wasn't about to let him quit on this either, even if it meant she would win.

He moved to where he was supposed to, shaking all the while and about to colapse. Suddenly, his phone rang loudly from his bag. He let go of himself and fell bringing Dash down with him.

Phew, saved by the bell.......ringtone...call.... He ran over to pick up his phone leaving Rainbow a bit disappointed.

"H-hello?", Soarin answered. His mom was on the phone checking on him. Rainbow unaware that he had answered looked up at him with begging eyes.

"C'mon Soarin, we were so close!", Rainbow pleaded. Soarin's eyes widened and he blushed as his mom chocked up on the other line.

"What?!", she asked. Soarin's look of surprise turned into one of worry.

"Uh...nothing", he lied.

"Soarin please, we were having so much fun", she begged once more.

"What?!", the feminine voice repeated.

"Hehe nothing, nothing", Soarin nervously chuckled. Rainbow finally noticed he was talking to someone one the phone. He sounded like he was trying to hide the fact that they were playing the game or something. Could he have a..? No way ...no..

"Dude, who are you talking to?", she worriedly asked. As she got up to walk towards him, she tripped over the game box and fell, hurting her knee in the process.
"Ow...ahhh", she hissed is pain. Soarin immediately ran over to Rainbow and carried her onto the bed, leaving the phone on speaker on a small table next to it.

"Rainbow are you ok?", he asked, filled with guilt and worry. She looked up at him and smiled. Maybe he didn't have a....that thing she wanted to be of his...

"What happened?" Rainbow recognized that voice as Soarin's mom, what a relief. However as she moved to get more comfortable on the bed, pain stung her in the knee again and she let out a rough grunt.

"Urghh..".

"What is going on in there?", Soarin's mom asked once more. Soar grabbed his phone and took it off speaker.

"Rainbow fell, I'll call you later", he hung up without getting a second opinion from his mom and ran down to where he remembered all the first aid stuff was. Blitz was in the couch waiting for his mom to come back from the the bathroom, since now he was roped in into watching some chick flick. He saw Soarin heading to the kitchen and rummaging through the drawers.

"I hope you're not looking for what I think you're looking for", Blitz spat at him. Soarin gave him an almost annoyed look. Does he seriously.....

"No. Dude I wouldn't do that, not now at least. I'm looking for bandages", he admitted. Blitz gave him an angry look making Soarin smirk.

"Whatever, third cabinet on the right", Blitz replied unamused. Soarin got what he needed and ran back up stairs.

"Thanks bro!", Soarin yelled back.

"Your welcome idio- Wait bro?", Blitz called back. "You mean as in a slang or something else?"

Soarin stood in the space that separated Rainbow's room from the rest of the house with a smug look. "I'll let you figure that one out on your own", he said walking in and closing the door behind him.

Blitz could only hope it didn't mean something else...

Back in Dash's room, Soarin had quickly finished bandaging her up and her even put a special healing cream.

"Thanks babe, I can always count on you", she said smiling.

Soarin blushed at the compliment and leaned next to her. "H-hey, what are best friends for?"

"You studder alot, you should get that checked out", Rainbow joked. Soarin rolled his eyes and smiled.

"Anyways, I guess a second round of twister is out?"

"Sadly, yes", Rainbow answered.

"Maybe we should call it a night, we've have enough fun and we can work on the wings tomorrow", Soarin suggested. In all honesty he was just getting tired.

"Fair enough, I guess", she agreed. She watched as he picked everything up from the floor and set it aside. He then started pulling out his sleeping bag.

Rainbow looked at him carefully. They had been friends forever, and he was really cute. He always made her smile and they loved spending time together....maybe she could have sort of a thing for him. Ok, she definitely had thing for him and although she had been teasing him all night, she couldn't tell if he actually had a crush on her or if he was just embarrassed. Well, she was about to do the craziest thing to find out.

"Hey, you sure you're ok sleeping in that?", she pondered. He looked up confused.

"Yeah, I've always slept on the floor when I used sleep over", he answered. At this point, she was done with teasing..but she wanted to....

"You can sleep up here if you want", she offered all too quickly.

"Really?", he asked, "your parents won't get mad?"

"I don't think so.."

"O-ok I guess", he agreed nervously. Rainbow noticed he wasn't completely sure, or so to say.

"You don't have to if you don't want to", she croaked.

"I do, I want to sleep with you", he said, not fully thinking. "Hehe I meant to say its ok, I'm fine with that", he added blushing.

"Well um..c'mon up hehe", Rainbow chuckled.

He climbed up next to her on the bed and looked at her with an embarrassed smile. She leaned on his chest a bit, making him go tomato mode and have an inner spaz attack. Dash couldn't help but smile to herself, there he was next to her, making her feel all weird.

"Night Dashie", Soarin smiled.

"Night Soar", she replied.

"Whatever happened to babe?"

"Shut up"

Soarin chuckled at her response. He had never been so close to her, so cuddly. He wrapped an arm around her, laying his face on her hair for a second. OH GAWD she smells like vanilla

"I love you, dude"

"I love you too-WAIT WHAT?!"

Author's Note

ALL THE FLUFF.

TAKE IT. TAKE IT.

Also anyone who thought "the craziest thing" was a certain "s" word, needs to get off the internet and smell candles for a while.
.....wait what..?
Never mind don't listen to me, I have my own issues. Something worth mentioning is that this chapter was actually already finished soon after the first part was released. Butt, I couldn't upload it for suspension reasons.
Special thanks to Rarity is Mah Favorite for the phone scene <(^-^<)
Daz all for now, KECKLES!

Chapter 9

Phew. Ok......ok, don't freak out. He heard you...HE ACTUALLY HEARD YOU!!! Oh, gosh, what to do now? I can't just aviod this situation, can I...? I mean, what just happened is unavoidable....and...was he about to say he loves me back? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Uhhh, I mean.....cool, hehe.

Rainbow Dash lay in her bed, using every last bit of self control to not start squealing like a fangirl at comic con. What had happened mere moments ago had made her almost die of happiness and joy, however Soarin's second comment, wasn't as appealing. It wasn't bad...was it? He was just confused right?

While countless thoughts ran through Rainbow's head, she couldn't help but notice that Soarin had wrapped his arm around her. She blushed as he got a slight bit closer. She smiled silently unknown that he did the same. They both cuddled up, happily holding their breath for whatever came next. As of right now, she wanted to enjoy the moment. Tomorrow, would be fiery death....

"Have you come up with anything?", Fleetfoot asked.

"No, you?", Thunderlane snapped back. Fleet looked at him, suspicious by his actions. He was a bit mad, frowning a bit too. His hands were clutched into fists and his head was down. He seemed so...aggressive and violent.

"Geez, what's gotten you in mood?", Fleetfoot asked teasingly, although she was really concerned for her friend. Thunderlane looked up at her. She wasn't normally intersted in anything that didn't focus on her bugging him.

"Do you think Rarity and I are really...different?", he asked almost crying, it seemed. His voice just cracked and he seemed so desparate.

"W-why do you ask?", Fleetfoot studdered.

"I just need an answer. Please Fleet, tell me the truth", Thunderlane pleaded. While Fleetfoot didn't want to hurt him, he needed to know.

"Yes...I think. What does it matter?", she responded quietly. Thunderlane looked down to his shoes again.

"I think I..."

"Yeah?", Fleetfoot asked. She needed to know, even though she already did. He liked Rarity, and now he was actually think about it.

"I don't know...let's focus on Soarin and Dash", he replied softly. "At least they have a chance..."

"Thunderlane, if you're feeling down, Soarin and Dash can wait...you need to asure me that you're ok. Are you ok?"

She knelt down next to him. He looked up at looked at her, observing every feature of her face with an open mind.

He leaned in, taking over the space between them, kissing her passionately. She felt as if she was flying, enchanted completely. Every inch of her melted as she was held in his kiss. It was something she wanted, something she never had felt up until that moment. She kissed him back with all she could, wanting him to love it as much as she did.

Thunderlane on the other hand, felt almost nothing. He wanted to make this last, but he felt nearly nothing. Everything that he had expected wasn't there, at least not yet. He withdrew the kiss slowly, opening his eyes as she did hers.

"Fleetfoot, will you go out with me?"

Monday. Faaaaaaak.

Soarin was having breakfast alone, seeing as Dash had band practice with the Rainbooms. He messed around with his eggs, not really feeling hungry. He hadn't had a chance to ask Rainbow about the whole "I love you" deal because when he woke up, she was already gone. Morning exercise probably. Besides, she seemed to be avoiding the question.

"Hey Soarin!", a voice called from behind him. He turned around to see the newest member of the the football team, Speedy. He was a light blue boy with white and blue hair falling on the sides of his head. Unlike the rest of the team, he had just moved a few weeks after school started while the rest of them had been Canterlot Wondercolts since they were freshmen. He was mostly new to the whole school rumors, though he honestly didn't believe all that nonsense with some alternate universe and the weird magic stuff.

"Oh, hey Speedster", Soarin replied giving him a fist pump as he walked by. He sat in the seat right across from Soarin, to be able to talk to him.

"So, how's Caterlot High been treating you?", Soarin asked, trying to start a conversation.

"Eh, it's been good. But that Ms. Harshwhinny is annoying as heck, how do you people deal with her?", he replied.

"The key is to ignore her and then look up math tutorials online".

"Legit, bro."

"So besides Ms. Harshwhinny, what else has been bothering you here?", Soarin asked. He didn't want the small talk to end, mostly because he was bored.

"Well I do have a crush on this one girl, but I can't bring myself to ask her out", Speedy answered truthfully. "Please help me Dr. Phill, you're my only hope".

Soarin laughed as Speedy did a 10/10 impression of Rarity and leaned his hand over his head dramatically. "Well, I'm probably not the best guy to give you dating advice. Seriously. But, you're more outgoing than me. I say you should go ahead and ask her".

"Will she say yes is my biggest concern", Speedy said warily.

"Chill, dude. I'm sure she'll go out with you."

"I can give her a huge romantic gesture. That'll guarantee it, right?"

"If it helps you sleep at night, sure", Soarin chuckled.

"Alright, thanks dude! See you sixth period!"

"Later Speedster!", Soarin called back. He turned over and started messing with his eggs again.

HEYYYYYYY!!!!
LE NEW CHAPTER!
Phew, I'm so glad to finally be able to release this, After like four edits. No, seriously. I thought it would be easy to come back to my regular writing style, but alas, twas I wrong. It took me ages to atleast be satisfied with how this chapter ended out.
You see, I wanted to make the ending more like by recent chapters where I ended with a hint of mystery or anxiousness towards the final moments, but I decided that
this would have been better and used it instead. Don't worry though, nexts chapters will have some crazyness and surprise involved. Besides, I'm getting back into the school schedule lifestyle, which is great because now I might post more often ^-^
*Fun fact: I Actually stayed up from seven pm to one am wring this, and its not even a major chapter...
NOW TAKE MY POTATOES. KECKLES, BYE!!

Chapter 10

"WHAT?!" Thunderlane screamed. His voice echoed throughout the restaurant causing all it's customers to stare. He stood up from his seat in agrevation.

"You're making a scene Thunderlane!" Fleetfoot whisper shouted. He looked at her as if she was crazy.

"ME? BUT YOU..." He was a loss for words, panicking as all eyes were on him. Fleetfoot motioned him to sit down.

"Listen to me, please," Fleet pleaded. Thunderlane nodded, telling her to continue. "Thanks. Now, you have to understand I'm doing this for your sake."

"What do you mean?" Thunderlane interrupted. She gave him an unamused look.

"You're not letting me finish. I want you to be happy and sadly, you won't be with me." She looked into his eyes and leaned her hand closer to his.

"Why not?" he asked softly.

"Because you don't want me. You're only lying to yourself because you're afraid of being alone, or of letting Rarity know that," Fleet added with a sigh.

"I don't like Rarity!" Thunderlane shouted. Fleet gave him a sympathetic smile.

"No. You love her. And you can't keep denying it to yourself."

"But she-"

"Loves you too and is afraid she won't be enough for you," she interrupted. "You have to talk to her."

Thunderlane frowned. She was right. No matter how much he hated it, he couldn't deal with the tension anymore."What about you?"

Fleetfoot thought for a moment. "I've got someone to set straight."

She stood up and walked toward the door. As she opened it, she quickly smiled at him before leaving. She wiped a tear from her eye and started walking towards the school.

It was all for the best.

Rainbow and Rarity were walking from the band room, talking about the upcoming Friendship Games. Since they only happen once every four years, the games were a big deal. Even though Dash wouldn't admit it, she worried that Canterlot High would lose. However, she had faith in her school. That's why she was gonna give em' all a nice, inspiring pep talk.

"How many sports do you think we'll be playing?" Rainbow asked gleefully. Rarity gagged and rolled her eyes. She never understood the "fun" there was in being sweaty and exhausted.

"Ugh. None, I hope," Rarity said flatly, which Dash ignored. It wasn't like anything she could've said would change Rarity's opinion. Besides, she had to worry about being fit herself.

Rainbow turned to the hallway that led to the gym, but a hand grabbed her before she could go. Rarity spun her around to face her. She wasn't panicking like usual but she looked rather surprised.

"Where do you think you're going?" Rarity asked. Dash raised an eye brow.

"Uhh, the gym?" Rainbow blinked. Rarity gave her a stern look.

"Oh, heavens no, darling. I need to walk in that direction ahead, and I refuse to look like a loner in front of all those popular girls," Rarity said, causing Rainbow to raise an eyebrow at her again. Rarity was always growing more dramatic.

"Aren't we pretty popular too?" Rainbow asked.

"Well yes but, they're very popular. I mean just look at all their followers on-"

"I don't think that counts," Rainbow interrupted.

"Well, it does!" Raritu pouted.

"Riiiight...." Rainbow said sarcastically. She hesitated, but walked with Rarity anyway. Even though she liked the lonely gym in the morning.

As they walked along the populars while pretending to have a conversation about the importance of toothpaste, Speedy saw his possible chance. He would ask her, it would be perfect. It had to be.

"Heh, and that's why flossing is important," Rarity finished randomly. Rainbow nodded stupidly in agreement. Very important to floss. Even though you will still bleed from getting jabbed by the dentist.

"But then, what excuse will the dentists give so the don't get sued by angry parents?" Rainbow joked. Rarity smiled and rolled her eyes. If that were the case, her parents would have definitely sued the dentists long ago.

He was ready. As was everything. All he needed was the perfect moment. And it was heading right towards him.

"Hit it!", a male voice yelled across the hallway. The school marching band popped up out of no where.

Suddenly, the band started playing a familiar tune. The girls stopped and looked up. A banner fell from the ceiling, igniting the words "Will you go out with me?" In red. Everyone around them stopped what they had been doing and stared in their direction. Some guys cheering , some girls cooing, and some students just... gasping.

Speedy then Jumped from behind the banner with a bouquet of red roses and ran towards the girl. Once both girls knew who he was heading towards both gasped and Rarity even smiled.

"Will you go out with me, Rainbow Dash?"

"Say you're just a friend...yeah you say you're just a friend..." Soarin softly sang to himself.

He was on his way to the library. Apparently he goes there when he's bored. He was hoping Ms. Cheerilee wouldn't be there yet so that he could play some games online.

As he walked his way down the hallway, he heard what seemed to be the school marching band playing "Bad Romance". He turned around and went the opposite direction, tempted to find the music source.

It was then he saw his possibly worst nightmare.

And Rainbow being wrapped in Speedy's arms was the most painful part.

AFTER YEARS OF WAIT!!! I FINALLY HAVE IT OUT.
EVEN THO I'M NOT FULLY SATISFIED WITH THIS. BUT I THINK I CAN FIX IT THE NEXT CHAPTER. IF I GET THERE.

ALSO MY CAPS BUTTON BROKE

Chapter 11

Rarity couldn't believe what just happened. She couldn't believe Rainbow Dash did what she had done. Everything she had experienced couldn't compare to this, and all she could do is ask...why? Surely Rainbow had a reason...right? "Rainbow Dash...how could you do such a thing? Don't you care about his feelings?"

She simply frowned at Rarity in response. "Of course Rares, but I also care about mine. That was my decision and to be honest...I never really felt that way about him." She looked down at her feet and sighed. "It was hard to believe he would feel that way about me."

"And you don't feel the same way?" Rainbow shook her head no. Rarity fiddled with her empty hands and looked at Rainbow in slight sympathy. She had done the right thing then.... "It was still nice of you to let him down gently..." Rainbow looked up, a half smile creeping on her face as the guilt she had started to fade. Even if Speedy pulled out all the stunts he could in his limited time, he had to respect that she wasn't interested. He couldn't just expect her to fall head over heals for him just because he gave her the attention. "You did good Rainbow..."

"Thanks..." Suddenly, a small realization crossed her mind upon remembering Speedy's little stunt. From what she remembered, she saw a blue figure watching...could that have been him? "Oh no..." Rarity looked at the brash girl with concern. She felt the need to ask what was wrong, but it seemed like Rainbow read her mind at that. "You don't think Soarin saw anything...do you?" Both their eyes widened. If he had seen, Rainbow would be done for. "What would he think?"

Rarity put an assuring hand on her friend's shoulder. "Rainbow, I doubt he saw what happened. Besides if he DID see I'm sure he wouldn't mind since you didn't agree to go out with Speedy."

"What if he didn't hear that?" Rainbow started in an angry voice. "What if he only saw me with Speedy and assumed I said yes? What if he-"

Rarity put a finger over Dash's mouth. "Rainbow, darling, calm down. If Soarin saw anything, I would think he'd confront you about it." Rainbow looked up Rarity as if to ask if she was sure, which Rarity caught on to. "I promise Rainbow, everything will sort itself out. Don't worry."

She had every reason to worry. Soarin was Soarin, he had his way of finding things out. Especially since every kid in school knew he had a crush on her. There would be people lining up to tell him! And soon, if not already, he would know.

Rainbow smiled, trying to hide her fear. Even then, Rarity knew how she felt and gave her a friendly hug.

"Thank you, Rarity."

"No problem, darling."

"WHAT!!"

"Calm down dude..."

"WHAT!!"

"It's stuff that happens sometimes..."

"WHAT!!"

"Relax..." Thunderlane put his hand over Soarin's mouth. "Are you gonna scream again?"

"Mhaypbe," Soarin mumbled from under Thunderlane's hand, blogging it with saliva. Purposely.

"Ughhh," Thunderlane grumbled, cleaning his hand on his pants. Soarin smirked, but only for a second. Then he returned to his devastated expression.

"I just can't believe she would go out with him...what's so great about him? What's wrong with me? What does HE have, that I-" Soarin started before getting a smack from his stronger than he thought friend.

"NO. Don't even start with that, man. This is pure bullcrap!" Soarin looked terrified. Thunderlane gave his friend a stern look. "Pull yourself together! You are Soarin Skies! Dash would be throwing her self at you!"

Soarin looked down, smiling slightly at the idea. Then his tone turned a bit more serious as he took in everything Thunderlane said. "But she's not...she's throwing herself at Speedy..."

"That little traitor...you give him advice on girl and then he asks out your girl. Ungrateful I tell ya," Thunderlane said, in a slight joking manner. Soarin smiled at him a bit, still hung up on the fact that his first and only crush was swept away by a guy she didn't even know....

"I always thought she'd be the girl to wait..." Soarin whimpered softly. Thunderlane raised an eyebrow.

"Who knows anything these days? I thought I knew what I wanted..." Thunder's eyes widened. "Oh uh, back to your stuff!"

"Right...." Soarin gave his friend a knowing look. "I guess we're both a little clueless, huh?

"Yeah, apparently," Thunderlane agreed. "Just like Speedy. You help him out with a girl then this is your reward. Ungrateful bastard..."

"Uhh...genius, Dash was the girl," Soarin said sarcastically. Thunderlane playfully punched him in the arm.

"I know dude, I was trying to cheer you up."

"Well it's not working..." Soarin said looking over to the wall across him.

"Wow...you are just in asshole mode right now aren't you..." Thunderlane commented. Soarin gave him an annoyed look. "What?"

"Nevermind," Soarin grumbled. He wasn't in the mood to argue anymore, all he wanted was to go home and lay down...and cry. But he knew he couldn't do that. He looked down to his shoes quietly. "What am I gonna do?"

Thunderlane cringed. "What?"

"What do I do?"

"What do you do? Is this a question? You are Soarin Skies! You must show Speedy he doesn't touch your girl! Go! Kick him in the balls! Fight! Win!" Thunderlane screamed, climbing on the chair.

"Calm the fuck down..."

"NO! You are bumming yourself out about this! You can't do this, you have to fight for your girl. Don't settle for anything. Tell her how you feel!" Thunderlane grabbed Soarin by his shirt and shook him for a second. "NOW TELL ME, WHAT WILL YOU DO?"

"I...think I'm just gonna talk to Rainbow about this..."

"YES DO THAT! SHOW HER YOUR WORDS!"

"Jesus Christ..."

"DO IT!"

"What the heck is wrong with you...?"

"JUST DO IT!"

"Nike?"

"NO! THAT OTHER DUDE!"

"Oh..." Soarin sighed and slowly back away from Thunderlane. He held his hands out in defense in case the king of stupid...tried something stupid...

"YES!"

"And you were telling me to calm down..." he mumbled.

"DO IT!"

"You're like...infested in rabies..."

"YEAH!"

All of a sudden, a familiar girl was standing infront of them. She was far beyond bewildered.

"Uhh...what is going on here?" Rarity shifted her eyes at Thunderlane, who was know staring at her with a horrified expression.

"Shhhhhhhhh-"

Don't ask...

LEIF

Chapter 12

Soarin walked slowly towards Rainbow's house. He honestly had no idea what he was gonna say to her. Despite the fact that he wanted answers, he really didn't want to ask Rainbow if she was going out with Speedy. He would seem desperate or jealous; when he wasn't. A-actually yes...yes he was. But Rainbow couldn't know that, especially if she didn't feel the same way, he would be humiliated. Not to mention crushed completely. He clang on to the idea that maybe Thunderlane was right...maybe she did like him. Still, he tried not to get his hopes up. This was a huge step he was taking. He wasn't sure how to feel about it. Nevertheless, he gulped as he turned the final corner onto Rainbow's street.

He knocked softly on the door, hoping no one was home. It almost seemed like luck was in his favor for a few seconds until, to his dismay, the door opened revealing Blitz. He looked at Soarin suspiciously, making Soarin a bit uncomfortable. "Hello... brother," he said finally. Soarin gulped.

"D-did you mean that as a s-slang or something else?" Soarin asked, shaking in fear. And nerves.

"I'll let you figure that one out on your own..." Blitz replied in a slightly harsh voice. "What are you doing here?"

Soarin's hands trembled as he fit them in his pocket. "I just need to talk to your sister..."

Blitz looked at him for a few seconds, building tension between the two. "About...?" He stared as Soarin looked down at his shoes, hoping that he was joking and hadn't literally asked him what he wants to talk about with Rainbow.

No. He needed to be confident. He wanted Rainbow, he had to ignore all distractions. He glanced at Blitz for a bit, then took a deep breath. "I want to ask her to be my girlfriend." Blitz's eyes widened.

"W-what?"

Soarin looked at Blitz in the eyes. "I want to ask Rainbow Dash to be my girlfriend. Can I come in?"

Biltz shook head a few times, he tried to regain his image and just let him through. "Thanks bro," Soarin said smirking.

"Pfft. Whatever..." Blitz replied. He layed on the couch and watched as Soarin climbed up to his sister's room.

He reached the end of the stairs and knocked happily on her door, some of his anxiety leaving him. Rainbow slowly opened the door and saw him standing there. He couldn't even say hi before she slammed the door on his face. He blinked...had Rainbow really just slammed a door...to him? He felt hurt, but remained there hoping she would open the door again.

Meanwhile, Rainbow was on the other side of the door failing to regain her composure. She felt like crying even though she had no idea what he was gonna say to her. But he was here, that's what was important. He was here trying to talk to her. She couldn't push him away, or their friendship wouldn't be the same. Even though she knew things were probably already different.

She jerked the door open, he was still standing there. Relieved, she stepped aside to let him in. He walked in staring at her as she stared back. "Hey..." She said softly. His eyes widened slightly. He could tell she wanted to say more, she just couldn't find the words. She had the most curious, but scared, expression he had ever seen.

Even then, he couldn't deny feeling the same way. He wanted to be confident but, he couldn't. Not with all of their feelings on the line. "Hey..." Soarin replied. She faked a cough, he chuckled a bit. Both stood in silence for what seemed like an eternity. "Why is this awkward, this isn't supposed to be awkward..." he said chuckling. He had hoped she would find it funny but she remained quiet. Rainbow hid behind her hair in a manner similar to Fluttershy's. "So..." They continued in silence. This wasn't playing out as he had intended it to, but what could he do, he had to do something. Soarin couldn't take it anymore, he had to ask her. At this point, he didn't care if he seemed desperate, he was and he needed answers. "Since when have you and Speedy-"

"SHUT IT!" Dash yelled suddenly. Soarin stepped back a little, slightly taken by her sudden outburst. "Why are you here?" Soarin was now a bit terrified, but nonetheless he walked over to her bed and sat down. He then motioned Dash to sit next to him but she remained standing where she was and it didn't seem like she was moving anytime soon.

Soarin sighed and looked at her with a guilty expression. He shouldn't be springing this on her, yet here he was. "Rainbow...I...I just wanted to make sure you were ok," he answered softly. "I saw you with Speedy earlier and Rarity told me you weren't feeling well so..." he lied.

"I'm fine," she said quietly. Soarin smiled knowingly, confusing her.

"You tend to forget I have a sister, don't you?" She blushed slightly. "What's really wrong?"

Rainbow looked at him for a while before looking away and shielding her face. "Speedy asked me out..." Soarin's eyelids fell as he resisted frowning. A pang of jealousy hit him, he imagined what it would be like for his lifelong crush to be dating another. And he helped. Rainbow quickly sensed his discomfort and smiled a bit . "But I ...declined..." she said looking at him. Immediately, his face lit up. All his negative emotions seemed to wash out of him and were replaced almost instantly with joy.

"YES!" He said jumping up. Rainbow smiled and walked over to where he was. Meanwhile he was jumping up and down in excitement. He took a mere look at the rainbow haired girl in front on him and picked her up, placing his lips on hers. Rainbow Dash's eyes widened, she was wrapped in his arms as he kissed her, she felt as if she was going to explode. She closed her eyes and kissed him back, caressing his hair with her fingers. He pulled away, leaving her still in awe.

"WOOHOOO! IknewitIknewitIknewitIknewit!" she yelled. While she jumped around her room in the most adorable manner, Soarin couldn't help but smile...and blush even more. Rainbow stopped and ran over to him, pinning him on the bed. They both stared into each other deeply, peace finally reaching their thoughts.

He looked into her eyes dreamly, everything currently happening felt like a dream come true. "So...we're girlfriend and boyfriend now?" Soarin asked timidly, getting a smirk from Rainbow.

"I don't recall you asking me..." she teased. Soarin rolled his eyes and smiled.

"Rainbow Danger Dash, would you like to be my girlfriend?" he asked. Rainbow grinned and gave him a quick peck on the lips. "I'll take that as a yes." He chuckled and caressed her hair softly, Dash still on top of him.

"OH GAWD, FINALLY!" Blitz yelled from the other side of the door. Rainbow rolled her eyes at her brother and kept a mental note to strangle him for spying on her.

She drew her attention back to the guy beneath her. After so much awkwardness, he was finally hers, not saying the awkwardness was gone for good though. He flashed her that dorky smile she adored and she grinned back, earning a chuckle from him. She rested her head on his chest and sighed. "So...what do we do know?" she asked softly. Soarin put his hand on top of her head.

"First off, I think we gotta tell our parents," Soarin replied. Rainbow's eyes widened.

Spectrum looked around his room confused. "Honey, where's Rainbow Dash?" Firefly looked away from her laundry and raised an eyebrow at him.

"Well, I don't know sweety, I'm assuming she's in her room. Why?" Firefly asked. Spectrum's face became more serious.

"I feel disturbance in the force..."

Author's Note

So....this happened.

Next chapter will be up sooner, I promise.

Chapter 13

"OH MY BALLONS, YOU TWO ARE FINALLY DATING?!" Pinkie yelled loudly. Soarin and Rainbow Dash, joined by hands, grinned and nodded excitedly.

"We made it official yesterday," Soarin smirked towards Rainbow.

"Wait...did you two...do the thing?" Twilight asked awkwardly fixing her glasses. Rainbow's eyes widened as Soarin chuckled softly.

"No Twi, we didn't do...that we just kissed..." Dash replied while blushing.

"TWICE!" Soarin added. Rainbow smiled, confirming it. Rarity, who had been a bit shocked at this happening without the plan she and the other two athletes had in progress, spoke up happily.

"I assume you've told half the school already?"

Both Soarin and Dash looked at each other sheepishly. "Actually, no you guys are the second group to know," Soarin explained.

Fluttershy raised an eyebrow. "Who were the first?"

"My parents," Dash answered. Applejack laughed softly.

"How'd that go fer ya'?" she asked.

Soarin caressed the back of his neck. "Well..."

"WHAT?"

"I'm so happy for you!"

"I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!"

"Oh c'mon honey, be supportive! They're finally together! Our daughter is with the greatest guy, and he's someone I can trust to take care of her."

"NO,NO NO-NO, NO!"

"Yeah mom, why can't you be supportive. Dad understands!" Dash complained. Soarin nodded nervously. Firefly walked up to him and janked his shirt.

"LISTEN HERE PUNK, IF YOU EVEN HURT A HAIR ON MY DAUGHTER'S HEAD, I WILL RIP OUT YOUR INTESTINES AND SHOVE THEM DOWN YOUR THROAT!" she screeched. Soarin gulped and quickly hid behind Rainbow, using her as a shield.

"Oh god where's Flash when I need him?" he whispered.

"DO YOU UNDERSTAND?"

"It was...good," Dash lied elbowing Soarin in the process. He laughed nervously, the girls soon started giggling at his actions.

"Well I congratulate you on your new achievement in your relationship," Twilight added proudly. Dispite not having much experience on relationships, she had read about them before, she knew they were special to those committed to one.

"Pfft. No, no silly! Something this important deserves some celebration! HUGE PARTY AT MY PLACE!" Pinkie yelled enthusiastically. The young couple winced slightly.

"Actually Pinkie, we wanted to keep this under wraps for a while. We'll tell people when we're ready if you don't mind," Soarin said smiling at her. Pinkie deflated a little but returned the smile. "We could all go eat somewhere though, just the eight of us that know?"

With that, Pinkie lit up once more and grabbed all her friends in both arms. "PIZZA PLACE IT IS THEN!!"

"Yay," Fluttershy peeped.

The girls...and guy sat on a booth with their drinks. Soarin sat next to Rainbow in the middle, Pinkie was next to Rainbow, Rarity next to Soarin, Fluttershy next to Rarity, Applejack next to Pinkie, and Twilight and Sunset on the edges.

All were patiently waiting for their pizza. Partly because everyone was throwing questions back and forth.

"How did it happen?"

"How'd ya' both react to each other's feelin's when y'all found out?

"How does feel to be with someone you've always wanted?"

"Oh you two make the cutest couple!!!"

Rainbow laughed to herself at her friends' remarks. Soarin, somewhat expecting these questions, answered most with a smile.

"Umm?" a small voice out of the group spoke up. They all looked to who it belonged to.

"Can I ask a small question?" Twilight peeped. Soarin and Rainbow smiled, nodding. "Well, I've read about romance in HUNDREDS of novels and stories but, what I still don't understand is something about a spark. A feeling that you get when you're around the person you're meant to be with. It's some type of energy, isn't it? Or what about a person can be so special that you need them to always be with you?"

"Small question, Twilight?" asked Sunset. Twilight grinned sheepishly. "Either way, it's a feeling called love."

"Yes, a feeling so powerful, it can drive you to do anything," Rainbow added. "In fact, considering the stuff we've been through, you can even go as far as to consider it magic."

"Magic? Is that what love is?" Twilight asked.

"Yeah, love might even be more powerful than friendship," Sunset suggested.

"Really? I thought you said friendship was the most important mahic of all," Twilight recalled.

"Well, friendship is a type of love," Soarin replied.

"PIZZA'S HERE!"

A waitress passed by them with a large pizza in hold and set it another table. "Nope, wrong people Pinkie."

"Oh," she said slumping in her seat. "I hate when that happens, I'm starving!"

The others laughed softly at their bubbly friend.

"Don't worry Pinkie, our pizza should be here soon," Fluttershy said softly patting her friend.

"Yeah, don't sweat about Pinks," Rainbow agreed. She looked over to Soarin on the other side of her and smiled sheepishly. He gave her a reassuring smile and held her hand under the table. She blushed and bit her lip.

"I saw that," Rarity teased. The rest of the girls smirked at them, with the exception of Fluttershy and Twilight, who giggled to themselves instead. Both athletes blushed and grinned in embarrassment.

"O-oh, look, the pizza is here," Rainbow studdered quickly and pointed towards a waitor coming their way.

Pinkie gasped. "Really?!" she turned and saw the waitor beginning to set the pizza on the table.

The waitor smiled at them. "One pepperoni pizza, extra cheesy crust. Just the way you asked," he said winking at Pinkie. Her eyes widened as she blushed softly. "Oh, and some super spicy hot wings?"

"GIMME!" Pinkie jumped out of her seat and leaped onto him. He was taken off guard and fell to the ground. Pinkie took the hot wings and threw em back to her seat. "RAINBOW, PROTECT THEM WITH YOUR LIFE!" Rainbow's eyes widened. "I need to use the bathroom." The waitor from under her cleared his throat and smiled. "Oh...ooops. Hehe," Pinkie got up and held out a hand for him. She then ran to the bathroom as fast as she could avoiding eye contact with him.

He stared after her. "Pinkie Pie, right?" he asked towards the group. After earning a satisfying nod, he grinned and walked back to the kitchen.

"Looks like Soarin and Rainbow Dash aren't the only lovebirds taking flight tonight!" Rarity said in teasing tone. Soarin and Dash blushed and laughed along with the rest.

"I guess it's no mystery why she picked this place then!" Sunset added. "Well, and the pizza here is the greatest in town!"

They went back to their laughing spree, getting a bite or two along the way.

"Thanks for tonight guys!" Rainbow shouted once outside the pizzeria. "I'll see ya tomorrow at school!"

"Have a safe trip home," Fluttershy replied.

"See ya later!" Applejack beamed.

"Yeah, and promise you two won't run away together like in those cliche romance novels?" Twilight teased, now feeling more comfortable around Soarin dispite him being the only male besides family and Spike that she had ever actually talked to.

"Hehe, Pinkie promise, Twi!" Soarin joked, using the nickname the others had given her.

The rest finished waving and wishing them a good night as the couple turned to go to Rainbow's beloved home. Soarin smiled happily after feeling Dash's hand wrapped itself around his. Once she was sure her friends were out of sight, of course.

"Tonight was..."

"Fun," Soarin finished for her. She nodded dreamly. "We should do it again sometime, alone maybe?" he asked wiggling his eye brows. Dash chuckled softly at the dork standing next to her.

"Maybe...but only if you behave," she teased.

"When do I not?" he replied while pretending to be offended.

"You'd be surprised," Dash answered. "I'll have to keep a leash on ya'"

"Get one near me, and it's tickle town for you," Soarin threatened. She stopped walking and gave him a light punch in the arm.

"Bring it on!"

"No, sweety, we've had enough for one night," he said patting her head. Rainbow blushed crimson red.

"Shut up nerd," she said harshly, but still in a joking manner.

"Awww! Is widdle Dashie mad?" he teased. He was close to reaching her limit. "You're adorable!" So. Very. Close.

"Stahp! I am NOT adorable," she growled. So close.

"You're so cute when you're angry!" ....and there it went...

"SOARIN!" she screeched. She attempted to tackle him but he moved out of the way, making Dash even more dangerous.

"HOLY SHIT!" he yelped. He started running as fast as he could to Dash's house.

"Get back here you...you...DORK!" she yelled after him.

"You think that's offensive SKITTLES?" he called out, hoping for her reaction.

"ARGHH, I HATE YOU!"

"Love you too, sweetie!" he replied happily.

He had finally reached her house and decided to stop running. She, not far behind him, finally pounced on him once he stopped.
"You! You, are insane!" she said catching her breath. Soarin smiled and brushed some hair off of her face.

"Well the skittles pack doesn't fall far from the tree," he teased once more, using the candy to his advantage.

"Stahp! PLEZ!" she pleaded lazily.

"Nu," Sorain said sweetly. He caressed her cheek with his finger in attemp to calm her down.

"You're a dork..." Rainbow whispered. "But you're the best I got..."

"Gee, thanks," Soarin answered sarcastically, earning a quick chuckle from Rainbow. She stared right through his emerald eyes.

"You're cute..." she said bluntly.

"Gee, thanks," he once again replied. However this time, a small blush appeared in his face.

"I said that outloud, ok...." Rainbow mentally facepalmed. She shuffled nervously, looking around to make it less awkward.

Soarin just stared at her. She looked so innocent, like all of the anger she had previously had gone. She looked scared...shy even. She was...adorable. He stared a bit longer. He payed more attention. All of her features...they were outlined by the moonlight. Her bright rainbow hair contrasting with the dim colors around them. Her hued magenta eyes and how they just...glowed. How beautifully they glowed. And then her lips. Her moist, cold lips calling his attention.Oh, how much he wanted them. She looked...bold. But..timid.

"You're gorgeous..." he whispered. He was tense, she could tell. But so was she.

"I..."

"We should...go inside. It's getting colder out here," he nervously suggested.

"Y-yeah," she agreed. "C'mon."

AGH
Sorry for the pizza setting. It's just, my family and I came to visit my parents' orgin home in Mexico and I have had ANY of my usual weekend foods or even much internet for the past few weeks either... AGH. You guys have no idea how bad it feels to miss burgers and french fries and friggen PIZZA, hot wings, Subway, Popeyes, Olive Garden, ect. Yes, I'm one of those people that eats a lot of fast food (well Olive Garden isn't really fast food but EH) at least I'm in good shape for all the junk I eat.
Don't get me wrong though, the food hwre isn't terrible, I'm just used to all the luxuries I get in the US ( like damn AC) that I've grown to miss them ...A LOT.

Chapter 3

"Why did he call you Dashie!?" Blitz asked still angry at Soarin. Well both at him and at his sister...but mostly him.

"Oh relax, Blitz. He was just being cute," Rainbow replied. As soon as they came out, she froze.

"Did you just call Soarin Skies cute?"

"Yeah I don't know what came over me.."

"YOU CALLED SOARIN CUTE!?" he yelled at her. Rainbow ran over to cover his mouth.

"Shhhhhh, mom and dad might hear-"

"Does it look like I care right now?!"

"Look Blitz," Rainbow started ,"the words just came out of my mouth," she said, trying to calm down her brother.

"Okay, okay. I'm calm." He froze and looked back at Dash, confusion obviously in his eyes. " R-Rainbow...do you...do you like him?"

Her brother's question shocked her. There was no way she, Rainbow Danger Dash, had a crush on anyone. That could never happen! She was too cool for that!

"Are you high? You're not twenty one yet, ya can't drink yet", she said teasingly. "Look, I know mom and dad gave you that talk so don't act like you didn't know you weren't allowed too drink yet till' now.."

"Dash, I'm being serious. Do you like Soarin?" Blitz asked once more, making Dash nervous.

"No Blitz, I'm not into girly, sappy stuff like that," she said. A voice in her head started saying things. Scary things for her. It told her she did. She liked Soarin. No wait, she didn't, did she?

"Well anyways I'm going to hit the hay if you need me, make an appointment for tomorrow."

"-wait, Dash."

"I said make an appointment tomorrow," Rainbow said pushing him out the door way.

"-but Da-" Blitz attempted to say but was cut off by a door in the face. Rainbow sighed, she was relieved her brother was out of the room but she was also scared of what he said. Wait no ...she wasn't scared, she was, um, slightly concerned. Yeah...

Rainbow took out her phone and went to her gallery. She smiled as she scrolled over some pictures of Soarin, some pictures of her, and some of both. Together.

All of the memories rushed through her mind, making her feel...strange to say the least. All different emotions ran through her body. Mostly when seeing a picture of Soarin. It made her happy, she didn't know why. She felt like giggling, and she wasn't the one to giggle.

She didn't like him. Maybe. She was confused, scare- I mean concerned, and lost. She was lost in her thoughts.

"Thanks a lot, Soar," Rainbow said smiling sleeply as she curled up under the covers into a slumber, hugging her pillow while doing so.

"Hey, Dashie," Soarin said as Rainbow walked along his locker. Her eyes widened as blood rushed through her cheeks. She was blushing, why was she blushing...again?! She mentally face palmed.

"H-hey Soar," Rainbow said nervously. "My brother was pretty pissed after you called me that last night, ya know?"

"I assumed it, it was a huge risk but c'mon, I've known you long enough to give you a nickname, right?" Soarin answered. Rainbow smiled at him.

"Yeah, just not in front of my brother moments after you were pinned by me in a inappropriate position, you dufus," she replied, a bit of sarcasm in her voice.

"Oh right, that," he said with a goofy grin." Well, not entirely my fault seeing as you were the one to pin me."

"Oh right, my act of revenge after you tickled me to death on my bed," Rainbow teased.

"So what if I provoked it? You were the one to make the move."

"-because I always win," Rainbow said smirking "Wait. What do you mean make the move?"

"I..um. Oh look it's Fleetfoot! Big star of the show, congratu-flippin-lations!" Soarin said awkwardly. He looked Fleetfoot, who was giving him a 'nice save idiot' kind of look.

"Hey Rainbow," Fleetfoot said walking up to Rainbow. Rainbow high-fived her.

"Fleet! What's up?"

"The sky."

"Ok then," Rainbow said chuckling as Fleetfoot laughed at her own joke.

"Well this has been interesting. I'll go sit in a corner now," Soarin said, speed-walking away.

"Okay, well I know he's an idiotic dork, but hell that was weird," Fleetfoot commented. She knew Soarin liked Rainbow, but that was surprising. 'Sit in a corner' dafuq?

"Yeah, he's been acting strange lately," Rainbow agreed. "You think he's hiding something?"

"Oh, he's definitely hiding something." Fleetfoot answered.

"Care to find out?" Rainbow asked with a mischievous grin. Fleetfoot rolled her eyes.

"I'm 99% sure I already know what it is," Fleetfoot started, as Rainbow opened her mouth to say something but was cut off by Fleet continuing, "but there's no way i'm ever telling you."

"Whaaaat?!" Rainbow whined.

"No. But I'll help you figure it out," Fleetfoot turned to an upset Rainbow Dash. "Deal?"

Rainbow eyed Fleetfoot. Why was she covering for him? Was it really something so secret that not even she, who had been Soarin's friend waaaaay longer than Fleetfoot, could know about it. Whatever, she was going to find out, that was the important thing. She needed all the help she could get and since Fleetfoot already knew, this would be a piece of cake.

"Deal!"

Chapter 14

"So, what are we doing today?" Soarin asked cheerfully. Dash smiled. It had only been about a week or so since they had gotten together, but Soarin always made it feel as if they'd been dating for years. Their relationship didn't change either, they still acted like the best friends they were. If anything, they were even closer now.

"Well, I was planning on napping," Dash replied. Soarin chuckled softly before walking over to her.

"What a coincidence, so was I," he said proudly. He grabbed Dash by her shoulders and gently but violently threw her on the bed next to her. It took her by surprise, but quickly she turned over and spread out amongst the bed.

"Oh, were you expecting me to save room?" she asked in a teasing tone. He chuckled and came closer to her, leaning slightly on top of her.

"Knowing you? Nah," he added slyly. "But forcing you to won't be too hard either...." He smirked just widely enough to let Rainbow know he wouldn't be considerate.

"Oh noes!" she slightly yelled. He lifted his hands and held her down with one while the other moved towarda her waist and started tickling. Dash was in tears in mere seconds. "Nuuu!Stahp!!!" she struggled to say between laughs.

"Sorry Sweetie, I won't," he grinned ,"but I could..."

"Yes, please.....stop.." Rainbow managed to breathe out. He stopped slowly and reached to pat her head.

"You're so cute when you're begging," Soarin commented ,"I think I'll do it again just for that."

"EEP," Dash squeaked, her eyes widening. Soarin smiled and pulled her in for a hug.

"Aww, Dashie, I'm so sowy," he teased. She smiled, rolling her eyes in the process.

"I hate you," she responded softly. Soarin planted a soft kiss on her cheek and nuzzled her.

"I do too, baby," he whispered holding her close. She slowly nuzzled back.

"Rainbow Dash is dating who?!"

A small, turquoise haired girl whimpered softly. "S-soarin Sir..."

"So that's what the sly bastard wanted all along, huh?"

"Actually, Sir, they've only begun dating last week," the timid girl spoke softly.

"Oh really?"

She nodded.

"Such a shame it won't last long..."

After their playful fighting, the two athletes went downstairs only to be greated happily by Rainbow's mom. She walked over to them with a huge smile one her face.

"Happy Valentine's Day, sweeties!" she said forever smiling. Dash looked down, smiling and blushing in both embarrassment and slight shyness.

Soarin sensed her being a bit tense and put an arm over her. "Yes, ma'am, hope you have a good one too," he replied politely.

"Why, thank you Soarin," she beamed. She walked off to continue cleaning the counter and the couple made their way out the door.

"Sorry about my mom..." Dash apologized softly. Soarin chuckled and placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Don't worry about it, Dashie," he reassured,"my mom would've reacted the same way!"

She gave him a small smile. "So...Ice Cream?" she suggested happily. He nodded and hugged her from behind.

"Anything you want, Dashie," he whispered in her ear. She giggled and pecked his cheek, blushing at the nickname. Dispite the fact that she had heard him say if often, she still found it sweet.

"Let's go, Romeo," Rainbow replied sighing happily. She grabbed his hand, which was conveniently wrapped around her waist, and somewhat dragged him along with her while his head rested a top her shoulder.

They got a few eyes from people who knew them. All were wondering if the two had finally become a couple. Some were delighted, while others were devastated, but neither of them cared at the moment. All yhe wanted to do was spend time with each other alone.

"Don't they have anything more interesting to look at?" Dash asked annoyed. Soarin let go of her back and instead walked beside her and held her hand.

"Apparently not. Besides, we were always the talk of the town in our relationship status. It only makes sense that they stare," Soarin explained calmly.

"Still, don't you feel even slightly uncomfortable with all of this attention?" she asked shielding her face a bit.

Soarin chuckled. "That's unusual coming from you," he commented.

"Haha, very funny. Most of the time, the attention I get comes from my awesomeness," she paused to look at Soarin. "Not my relationship status."

"Well, If you must know, I don't mind it," Soarin replied. "I find it pretty cool that people care so much about our lives."

"I thought you were the one that wanted to keep our relationship a secret," Dash teased.

"Yet, you're the one complaining," Soarin declared. Dash rolled her eyes in defeat and smiled at her boyfriend.

"I still hate you," Rainbow stated proudly. Soarin smiled and nuzzled her neck.

"Thanks, sweetie," Soarin replied. "So, about that ice cream?"

"Right around the corner," she said smiling.

Soarin grabbed his girlfriend's hand, grinning happily. "Then let's get to it!"

The couple continued walking, smiling at at other happily, no longer caring for what people thought. After all, they were happy and that's all that mattered. Upon reaching the small ice cream parlor, Soarin opened the door for his lover. She rolled her eyes at his attempt to be courteous but blushed a bit at the same time. There was no denying that she found these small gestures a little cute. Soarin could tell she was happy and loved the feeling he got out of it.

Both stopped at the counter, thankfully the place was near empty. She nodded at Soarin, indicating that she knew what she wanted and was ready to order if he was. He took the hint and began talking.

"Could I get the mint chocolate-chip flavor, two scoops in a waffle cone?" he asked the lady behind the counter. She nodded and turned to Rainbow.

"And, I'll have one scoop of cappuccino in a waffle cup," Dash soon replied. The lady nodded once more and began working on their orders.

Meanwhile, Soarin and Rainbow Dash went to sit down in a small booth on a corner of the store. Dash began to get her wallet out and the money required to pay for the treats.

Soarin noticed this and furrowed his brows slightly. "Woah, woah, woah missy! I'm paying for this, don't sweat it."

"Soarin please, I was the one who suggested we get ice cream. I'll pay for this," she replied brightly.

"You don't have to, I got this. I'm the one who's supposed to pay for our meals," he said. Rainbow almost face palmed.

"Soar, you're not gonna be one of those guys who wants to pay for everything we do are you?" she asked him getting a little annoyed.

"Uh, no?" he replied sheepishly. Dash gave him an annoyed look. "Fine, you can pay for this one. But no amount of arguing can stop me from paying next time, Dashie."

"Whatever you say, puddin'," Dash smirked. A small bell was heard, signaling their order was ready. Dash stood up with her money in hand and walked to over to the counter. She took the small tray containing the frozen treats and handed the lady the money that was charged. She then headed back to her booth.

"Here you go, soaring eagle," she joked proudly. Soarin chuckled softly.

"Thanks, Skittles," he replied as she sat down. "Don't think you can get away easily, I still have like six names to refer to you as. Rainbow grinned, thankful that her boyfriend was the way he was. It made Dash not only feel safe around him, but also comfortable.

The two began eating their ice cream happily, often exchanging smiles and blushes. The few amount of people at the shop couldn't help but giggle at how cute they looked together and Soarin was sure he had hear a few 'Awww's throughout the store.

"Are we really that cute as a couple?" Dash asked a bit of pride in her tone.

"Of course, there's people that even write fan fictions about us being together," Soarin answered. Dash's eyes widened.

"Seriously?" she asked.

"Yup, I've read a few of them myself," he admitted. Rainbow's eyes narrowed on him. "Heheh, sorry. They gave me hope y'know!"

Dash sighed. "I've got to keep a better eye on you..."

Soarin chuckled. Soon enough, Rainbow joined him and took his hand on top of the table.

Soarin would be lying if he had said he hadn't gotten redder than a tomato. She blushed harshly too and stared at him dreamly. He blushed even more and soon began to stare into those eyes of hers he loved so much.

"You mean a lot to me..." Rainbow whispered,"you know that, right?"

He nodded slowly, a smile creeping on his face. "And you are such an important person in my life...I would never want to lose you.."

Dash blushed. "And you never will..."

"Promise?"

"Promise."

So...this is late :twilightsheepish:

This was supposed to be uploaded on Valentine's day cuz it's like.... Chapter 14 ..uploaded on the 14th..and Valentine's day is mentioned. BUT it wasn't finished so... HERE YA GO!

This isn't just a filler chapter by the way, for anyone who thinks it is. Much foreshadowing and I can already imagine the comments I'll get trying to guess who the two characters in the cut clip are ... But I'm not telling yet..cuz I'm mean. Anyways...I apologize again for how long it took me to get this chapter out but I'd like you all have a little patience with me and remember that I am this middle school kid that often either runs out of ideas or has some band thing I need to do or...is at school...

I can't promise the next chapter will be posted any quicker since it's supposed to be a huge chapter than I can hopefully pull off but ...I'm stupid so it's most likely gonna be later than this one.
Thanks for reading!!
