Applejack and Rainbow Dash went to the Sweet Apple Acres.

"Hi, everypony." said Applejack to her family.

"Oh, hi Applejack and...Rainbow Dash." said Granny Smith.

"Rainbow Dash is goin' to spend a night here." explained AJ.

"But why?" asked her sister Applebloom.

"Y'know today was vaccine day, Ah think ya remember. Rainbow Dash is takin' that hard and doesn't want to spend night alone." explained Applejack to her little sister.

"Why is this so hard for her?" asked Applebloom.

Applejack started to tell her, but Rainbow put hoof on her mouth and spoke herself.

"Look Applebloom, I am so skinny as I am, so it's more painful for me, than to other ponies. And like Applejack said, I don't want to spend night alone. Because it's going far worse at night." explained Rainbow to little apple, but then frowned a bit, from the pain what her swallowed leg caused.

"Uh...That isn't good, but goodnight for now." said Big Macintosh with his extremely low voice.

"Night.".

Rainbow snuggled up to Applejack. Applejack could see, that Rainbow's leg gave her great pain. In a few minutes she could see those tears what came from Dashie's eyes.

"Leg hurtin' so much already?" asked Applejack softly.

Rainbow nodded. Applejack kissed Rainbow on her forehead. Rainbow could smile a bit, but that was smile mixed with frown.

In a half an hour Dash started to sob quietly and waked up Applejack who had fell asleep. She hugged her a bit tighter, also watching that she wouldn't touch RD's left leg.

"Please stop that pain." whispered Dash to Applejack.

"Ssh ssh, it will be better in the mornin'." said Applejack to crying Pegasus.

That crying continued until the 6 o'clock. Then she whimpered for 10 minutes and then everything went quiet. Rainbow didn't sleep, but pain was over.

"I'm sleepy, but I don't get sleep." said cyan Pegasus.

"Meh too." yawned Applejack.

"Sorry for keeping you up all night." said Rainbow Dash shyly.

"That's nothin'. Ah think few cups of coffee will fix this." said Applejack.

They enjoyed each other company about 50 minutes more and then they went to kitchen. After few cups of coffee they could stay awake.

"Thanks for company tonight." said Dash with a first true smile in a few days.

"That's what marefriends are for." smiled Applejack

Just after Applejack had finished her sentence, someone knocked on the door. Applejack went on the door.

"Hi Twilight. So early today." said surprised Applejack.

"Yeah, just wanted to check on Rainbow Dash." said purple Alicorn princess.

"She's pretty fine, except that we both didn't slept at all. Ah could get a 5 minute nap, but that was all. And suddenly we don't get any sleep at all." said Applejack.

"I hope she gets sleep tonight." Twilight hoped.

"Wanna come in?" asked AJ from her friend.

"Okay. I'm not in hurry." said Twilight.

Twilight stepped in.

"Hi, Twi." greeted happy Rainbow. She was not sleepy at all.

"Hi, Dash. Great to see that you're feeling better." said Twilight.

"Me too. Actually I'm feelin' great. Well, leg hurts a bit, but that's almost okay. And I can't get sleep either. Not after 3rd cup of coffee."

"Great to hear."

Three friends enjoyed each others company. They talked and laughed and had good time.
