The First Meet

“Ahh, shit. 5am already”, Soarin asked as he got up from his somewhat peaceful slumber. “Damn schedule, I was having a nice dream, too”, he complained. Ever since he became a wonderbolt 5 years ago, he had the same schedule every day. Eat, practice, perform, sleep, repeat. And today was no different. He got up, ate, and when to the wonderbolt compound. “Soarin, in my office, NOW” Spitfire, Soarin’s boss, said. “Yes, ma’am? “ Soarin said while giving a hand salute. He was expecting his duties for the day, but instead he heard words he never thought he would hear. “Go take a day off, Soarin” “What??” He replied. “You heard me” ” But, don't I have duties to attend to?” He asked with a dumbfounded look on him. “You saved all your vacation days. Me knowing you won't use them on your own, I'm making you use them. Didn't you say you wanted to go to Ponyville?” “True, I've always wanted to see what it's like in the countryside of Equestria.” Soarin said. “Well then, get a move on. Next train leaves in 30.” Spitfire pointed out. And like that, he was gone. He had no idea what he was going to do when he got there, he plans on staying for like a day or two.

He arrived at the train station. And as soon as he got off the train, he was automatically noticed, and he knew who it was.” Hello, princess.” “Hi, Soarin.” Said Twilight. “How do you know me, Princess?” Asked Soarin. “Oh, don’t be ridiculous. Everypony knows the Wonderbolts,” she responded. “Great. Even in Ponyville, i’ll get noticed by random fans” he thought in despair. “Hey, do you want to come to Sweet Apple Acres? I heard they have a extra room open for visitors,” Twilight asked. Soarin wondered if he can stay at the castle, but then he thought about it. If he was looking for quiet, the last place he would want to go to is the home of one of the most beloved princesses, not to mention the savior of Equestria on more than one occasion. “Sure, I have no where else to go in this town,” he said with a harsh tone. Trying to move through a town in the middle of the day was hell to him. On the way there he met 5 normal fans who didn’t give any trouble, 7 foals who stopped him for an autograph which somewhat annoyed the young stallion, but they looked up to him so he didn’t complain. And the thing he hated the most, fan girls. You would think that you would love mares all over you would be a dream come true. But for Soarin, it was a living nightmare.

They finally arrived at Sweet Apple Acres, after the fans left him alone. He was still exhausted from moving all day long, so he decided to take a nap at one of the couches the apple family had only to be awoken by someone entering the house. “Hey, Applejack! Can you hel-” she stopped as she looked at Soarin. She was a mare pegasus with a rainbow colored mane. “aaaaaaAAAAAHHHHHHH” she screamed while she looked herself in the bathroom. “Who was that?” Twilight asked. “I dunno. She walked through the door, saw me, Screamed at the top of her lungs, and ran” Soarin responded. “I think i know who it is now,” Twilight responded.

“What’s wrong, Rainbow,” Twilight asked with concern. “Oh, I don’t know,” she said sarcastically. “One of the most famous ponies in Equestria that I idol is inside THIS VERY HOUSE.” “Rainbow, calm down. He’s just a pony,” Twilight tried to comfort her friend but to no avail. “Just a pony? JUST A PONY?!” Rainbow yelled. “Have you hit your head on your castle, Princess? That’s Soarin, one of the lead flying team members and one of the most famo-” she cut herself off when she heard Soarin’s voice from downstairs. “Hey, is everything ok up there,” Soarin asked. “No, how about you try getting the fangirl out of her comfort zone” Twilight responded. “Nononono, Don’t you dare make him com-” “Hi” “ECK,” Rainbow panicked when he heard his voice right behind the door. “Why don’t you come out of the bathroom, I won’t bite.” He said. Rainbow Dash was contemplating what she should do.  She eventually decided to go out and face her fan girlness. She slowly opened the door and saw the light blue stallion standing there with a welcoming smile on his face, relieving Dash a little bit. She walked out of the bathroom, her wings covering her face. “Hi,” Soarin said. “H- Hi,” Rainbow replied with hesitation. She had no idea what she was feeling at the moment. It was a feeling of fear, happyness, lightheadness, pure joy, pure shock. She had no idea how she what she was feeling, and she had no idea how to respond. She wanted to both become exstatic with joy and quiver in fear. “How are you,” Soarin asked Dash, still wondering what she should do. “G- Go- Good,” the nervous pegasus responded. “Quit being nervous, kid. I told you, I don't bite,” Soarin said with a slight chuckle. “S- Sor- Sorry,” Dash stuttered. “Hey, why don’t we go to Suger Cube Corner. I heard that they’re a sale today,” Twilight said. “That be great, I need so food after this whole ordeal,” Soarin said. Soarin thought that this weekend was going to be boring, He quickly found out otherwise. On the way, Dash held her wings in front of her face, covering the obvious blush on her face caused by her embarrassing introduction to Soarin. She wasn't comfortable. Meeting one of the most famous ponies in all of Equestria is one thing, going to lunch the that same pony is a one in a lifetime opportunity.
