"Woo wee! What a mighty fine day," Applejack spoke to nopony in particular as she walked down the path heading to Ponyville. The sun was out and everypony in town was getting snuggly with each other as they enjoyed the spirit of Hearts and Hooves day. Applejack smiled and nodded towards the couples as she entered the town. She was heading on to meet her own special somepony and could feel her own excitement rise as her eyes gazed across the loving couples of Ponyville.
Applejack steadily carried her bouquet of flowers on her back, This is gonna be great! she thought, as she made her way to a particular pony's boutique.
"Hello, sugarcube!" Applejack greeted lovingly as she slammed the door open to Rarity's boutique.
No answer...
Applejack looked around at the deserted main hall of the boutique, but no Rarity was in sight. Walking inside, Applejack closed the door behind her. She walked to the kitchen entrance and peered inside, but Rarity wasn't there either...
"Huh..." Applejack tapped her chin in thought. "Maybe she's upstairs."
As on cue, Applejack's ears flicked as she heard a familiar giggle from upstairs. She smiled and began trotting lightly up the stairs of the boutique. Applejack readied her flowers as she made her way up the second floor. She saw Rarity's door stand ajar and heard yet another murmur and giggle from within the room.
Not bothering with anymore anticipation Applejack opened the door, "Happy hea—"
Applejack's voice got caught in her throat.
She stared with a heavy heart at the scene before her, as the bouquet roses slowly fell from her grasp and hit the floor.
"So you like that, huh?" a pegasus whispered through smirked as she finished a sensual tongue stroke across the horn of Applejack's girlfriend.
Applejack's mouth stood agape as she watched none other than Rainbow Dash, intimately hovering over Rarity.
Rarity giggled playfully, "Well, I don't dislike it— A-Applejack?!" Rarity looked up in shock as she caught Applejack at the door.
"R-Rarity?" Applejack managed to peep out. She felt a sting in her eyes as she watched the event before her. "W-What's going on?"
Applejack was confused... How could Rarity have done this to her? Smiling and giggling in bed with somepony other than her...
"What the heck does it look like?" Dash spoke up boldly, breaking the silence. Applejack felt a lump in her throat as reality came crashing down.
Her eyes got wet, "R-Rarity," she broke out desperately. "How could you..."
Rarity looked away.
"How could she what, AJ?" Dash inquired, "Choose me, a top elite famous wonderbolt over some stinkin' mudpony?"
"Applejack, I..." Rarity tried to intervene, but trailed off.
She had nothing to say...
"You think you dictate over what Rarity wants?" Dash laughed, "Face it, Applejack! You could never satisfy Rarity the way I could. I'm like a million times better than you in every category. And besides..." Dash smirked smugly, "unlike you I can give Rarity something she needs right now..."
"No..." Applejack eyes went wide at Rainbow Dash's ridiculous implication. Rarity would never stoop so low... She was a nice pony. Like Applejack, Rarity liked nothing more than to cuddle and talking about her feeling.
"That's right, Applejack..." Rainbow Dash nodded. "Lewdness."
"B-But that's for married ponies!!" Applejack shouted.
"Oh yeah?" Dash glared into Applejack's tear struck eyes before turning towards Rarity. "Then consider this my wedding proposal."
Applejack watched in horror as Rainbow Dash wrapped her hooves around Rarity's head and pull her into a deep kiss. She could feel every muscle in her body strain as Rainbow Dash kissed her special somepony. She clenched her teeth as a spark of anger rose within her at the shock and betrayal.
But it was all for naught... Because as Applejack watched Rarity slowly close her eyes and lean in to kiss Rainbow Dash back, her heart broke into a million pieces...
Applejack could do nothing but watch as her tears began streaming down her face, seeing Rarity's tongue collide with Rainbow Dash's. The two ponies made no attempt to stop or slow done and Applejack could feel the pain within her chest escalate by the second. A small whimper escaped Applejack lips as the ongoing scene threatened to tear her fragile heart to shreds.
And it didn't stop...
The whimper became loud and eventually ascended into sobbing and kept going louder and louder. Even through the shame of it, Applejack couldn't help herself. Paralyzed by sadness, she fell to her hunches as the loud sobbing roared through the room. Through all the pain she'd felt in her life, nothing was as soul crushing as this moment. She wanted to die...
The tears that filled her eyes had blurred her vision and through the moment that felt like death, she was disoriented. She could do nothing but cry openly like a foal towards her former lover. Shaming herself beyond redemption... But in her current moment, pride had little meaning. All she knew was pain and in her despair, it seemed endless...
She needed to cry right now...
"That's right, Applejack," a voice said. "Keep crying."
Rainbow Dash must have stopped kissing Rarity at some point because Applejack could feel the pegasus hooves wrap around her barrel and her warm breath whisper into her ear. Applejack tried to stifle her crying but, to no avail... She could do no more now than she could before. She felt the tip of Dash's tongue touch the bottom of her cheek and then slowly beginning to move upward, licking up the tears that streamed down from her face until finally reaching the bottom lashes of her eye.
Dash retracted her tongue in a sweet sigh of content...
"Your tears are delicious."
