Rainbow finds herself on a blind date.

Rainbow Dash never liked the idea of dating, especial blind dating. Yet, thanks to her friend Pinkie Pie, she finds herself on one, wether she likes it or not. She doesn't expect to like whoever is on the date with her until she sees who it is, then things change.

Ugh, Really, Pinkie?!

Rainbow Dash was sitting in class, watching the clock tick away. Only five more minutes until school was out, or for her, five more minutes until she could go practice basket ball. She couldn't hear what her history teacher was saying, she could only think about the sweet ringing of the school bell.

"Wouldn't you agree, miss Dash?" her history teacher, Ms. Harshwinny asked.

"Oh, um, what would I be agreeing to?" Rainbow asked.

"Miss Dash, you should know what you're agreeing to, you should have been paying attention." Ms. Harshwinny said.

The whole class snickered.

"Alright, class, it;s time to assign homework."

Rainbow was on her way to the basket ball court when she was stopped by her friend, Pinkie Pie.

"Hey, Dashie! Where ya goin'?" Pinkie asked.

"To the basket ball court, wanna come?"

"Sure! I finally finished handing out all of the invitations to my Christmas party!"

"Sweet, but I haven't gotten one, where's mine?" Rainbow asked.

"Right here!" Pinkie said as she pulled a pink envelope out of her wild mane and handed it to Dash.

"Thanks, so, who else is going?"

"Oh, a lot of people, I even invited Twilight Sparkle!"

"Oh, you mean that smart girl who sits alone all the time?" Rainbow asked.

"Yeah, her. I thought that it would be nice to invite her, even if she doesn't have any friends."

"Cool, cool. I just hope you didn't invite Soarin." Rainbow said.

"Don't be silly! Of course I invited Soarin! I invited the entire school!" Pinkie said.

"Great, now I'll probably have to deal with that creep trying to chase me down during the party when I'm trying to enjoy some eggnog!"

"Heh, sorry, Dashie, but I couldn't just not invite him, I mean, I ship the both of you!" Pinkie said.

"Still don't know what that means."

"And I'll never tell you."

"Okay, then. I'll be right back, I have to go change into my b-ball uniform!" Rainbow said as she headed into the girls' locker room.

Pinkie headed into the gymnasium and took a seat on the bleachers next to Rainbow's teammate, Fleetfoot.

"Hey, Pinks, what are you doing here?" Fleetfoot asked.

"Oh, just came here to watch Dashie practice for a little bit."

"Oh, I see, you gonna tell her the surprise?" Fleetfoot asked with an evil grin.

"Duh! Of course I'll tell her the surprise!" Pinkie answered.

"What surprise?" Rainbow asked as she walked over to the pair.

"Oh, nothing, I'll tell you in a sec, I just have to check on something." Pinkie said as she checked her phone.

"Okay." Rainbow said as she went to go shoot some free throws.

"Sweet! It's confirmed!" Pinkie said happily.

"What is?" Rainbow asked, not taking her eyes off the basket.

"Oh, it's nothing, I only just set you up on a blind date at Sugarccube Corner this Saturday."

"You what?!" Rainbow asked.

The ball that Rainbow had just thrown bounced off the backboard, and hit a shocked Rainbow straight in the head, knocking her out.

"Oh my gosh! Rainbow! Are you okay?!" Fleetfoot said as she ran up to Rainbow.

"I'll go get the nurse." Pinkie said as she ran out of the gym.

"Ungh. Where am I?" Rainbow asked as she came to in the nurse's office.

"You're in the nurse's office, hon, you got hit in the head with a basket ball, and you have a concussion." the school nurse said.

"Oh no! That means I can't play in this Friday's soccer game!" Rainbow said as she sat up quickly.

"Yes, unfortunately, but the co-captain wants to talk to you." the nurse said.

"Oh, great. He's the last person in the world that I want to talk to right now." Rainbow said.

"Well, hello to you too, Dash." Soarin Skies said as he walked into the nurse's office.

"Great." Rainbow mumbled.

"So, uh, I came to visit you for some pointers, I guess." Soarin said as he took a seat by Rainbow.

"Ugh, whatever. Whatdaya wanna know?" Rainbow grumbled.

"I want to know how to give a good pep talk." Soarin said.

"Oh no, I'm still doing that, even if I can't go out on the field, I'm still giving the pep talk!" Rainbow said.

"Fine, then I guess I should leave, captain." Soarin said as he got up.

"Oh no, sorry, Mr. Skies, but you need to see that Rainbow makes out to her parent's car safely. You can go now, Rainbow." the nurse said.

"You couldn't just call Fleetfoot or Pinkie?" Rainbow asked.

"They all went home, sorry Miss Dash, but you'll have to spend two extra minutes with Mr. Skies."

"Ugh, fine. Let's go." Rainbow said.

Soarin walked Rainbow out to the front of the school, Rainbow was surprised to see that it was dark outside.

"Wow, how long was I out for?" Rainbow asked.

"Two hours." Soarin said.

"Yeesh, darn basket ball." Rainbow muttered.

"Yeah, okay, um, bye, see you tomorrow, I guess." Soarin said once the pair got Rainbow's parent's car.

"Sure." Rainbow said coldly as she got in.

"Hi, honey, how ya feeling?" her mom asked.

"I'm fine, I just want to go home." Rainbow said.

"Okay, we can do that." her mom said as she pulled out of the school's parking lot.

Once they were home, Rainbow went straight up to her room to text Pinkie.

Hey.

Hey! How ya feelin?

Better, why'd ya set me up on a blind date in the first place?

Because the Fleetster and I thought that it was about time you went on a date!

Right, right. And who is said date with?

Oh, please. If I told you, it would ruin the whole idea of a blind date!

Of course. But is it someone that I'll hate?

At first, maybe, but I think if ya get to know him, you'll grow to like him!

Sure. Anyway, I gotta get some rest. Night!

Rainbow put down her phone and went to bed.

My Blind Date is You?!

Rainbow Dash was sitting at a table at Sugarcube corner, waiting for her blind date. She couldn't help but wonder who her blind date was. She was for certain that she wouldn't like him at all. She didn't typically like the flirty type, or any type for that matter. She started thinking about yesterday's soccer game and how Soarin had led the team to sweat victory. He made a good captain. Not as good as her of course, but pretty good. Watching the game was really the first time that Rainbow could examine her teammates play, and they were all pretty good. She could see some room for improvement, but they were all pretty good, especially Soarin. Ugh, why did she keep thinking about Soarin? She then focused her attention to the lack of her blind date.

"Ugh, the only other person that would be this late is Soar-" Rainbow said, but she was cut off when Soarin walked into the bakery and sat down at her table.

"Rainbow Dash?!"

"Soarin?!"

"What are you doing here?!" the two asked at the same time.

"I'm here for a blind date." they both said again.

"Oh no. You don't think..."

"Yup, Pinkie set me up on a blind date with you, as much as I hate to admit it, it all makes sense." Rainbow said.

"Well, uh. This is awkward." Soarin said as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"Yes, yes it is."

"Ar you two ready to order?" Mrs. Cake asked as she walked up to their table.

"Sure, I'll have my usual." Dash said.

"Gotcha." Mrs. Cake said.

"And I'll have my usual as well, plus brownies for the both of us." Soarin said.

"Okay." Mrs. Cake said as she walked off.

"How did you know that I love brownies?" Rainbow asked.

"Wait, you love brownies, I love them too! I only got them for me, and to be a gentlemen" Soarin said.

"Okay, that's a little creepy." Rainbow said.

"Hold up, what is your usual?" Soarin asked.

"A vanilla milkshake with rainbow sprinkles and chocolate shavings." Rainbow said.

"That's mine too."

"Holy mother of crap, how is this even possible?"

"Dunno, I guess fate just wants us to be together." Soarin said.

"Shut you creep."

"And why would I do that?" Soarin asked.

"Yeah, why would you?" Rainbow asked with narrowed eyes.

"Because you're cute when you're angry." Soarin said.

"And how would you know that?"

"Dude, you absolutely despise me, I know when you're angry, and that's one of the many reasons why I like you." Soarin said smugly.

"Hold up. You like me?" Rainbow asked.

"Sure! Who wouldn't like a girl like you? I mean, you're beautiful, loyal, badass, sporty, you're totally boss, the list goes on."

Rainbow was at a loss for words.

"Oh, you want me to continue? Okay, let's see, you're also adorable, a big dork, and a crap ton more."

"You, like me?"

"Duh! I already said that!"

"How could you like me when I've been so mean to you?" Rainbow asked.

"Do you want me to state the reasons that I like you again?"

"N-no, you don't have to. I just need to process this for a moment." Rainbow said.

"Process away."

Rainbow thought hard. Mrs. Cake brought their order over.

"Umm, what is she doing?" Mrs. Cake asked, acknowledging Rainbow's weird thinking face.

"Adorable, isn't it?" Soarin asked, but Mrs. Cake had already left.

Soarin took a sip of his milkshake, enjoying watching Dash think her head off.

"So wait, when did you get a crush on me?" Rainbow asked.

"Oh, back in 2014 when you beat Crystal Prep that one time, the only we beat them, and you kicked their asses." Soarin said.

"Ah, the game of '14, man, that was a really good year for me." Rainbow said.

"It really was, well, except for the fact that we were all freshman." Soarin said.

"Yeah, okay, back to you liking me."

"What about it? Do you like me too now?" Soarin asked playfully.

"Um, I haven't really gotten to know you all that well." Rainbow said.

"Well, what do you want to know?" Soarin asked.

"I dunno, I guess I just want to know more stuff about you." Rainbow said.

"M'kay, I'll start off with where I was born." Soarin said.

"Oh boy."

"And that brings us to today." Soarin said, an hour and a half later.

"Wow, I'm glad we didn't go to the same middle school." Rainbow said.

"Yeah, I consider you one of the lucky ones."

"Well, I'm glad to be one."

"Yeah, you better be." Soarin said.

"Wow, man, I actually kinda find youth be a cool guy, and, dare I say this, likable." Rainbow said.

"So, you finally admit it, I'm a lovable dude." Soarin said as he smugly sipped his milkshake.

"Nope. I said that you were a likable guy, not a lovable dude." Rainbow corrected.

"But you admit that you like me." Soarin said proudly.

"Maybe I like you a little, but don't get to cocky about it, I'm still your captain." Rainbow said as she sat back in her seat.

"Who has a concussion and can't play."

"But I can still give a hella good pep talk."

"True, true, but I can actually beat you at a game of one-on-one." Soarin said.

"That was one time!"

"Two times, actually, one time during freshman year and the other at soccer camp last summer."

"Ih, yeah, soccer camp. I forgot about that. But, you know, I guess you beating me was the only low point of 2014."

"Yeah, but 2014 had zero low points for me." Soarin said.

"Yeah, but we were freshmen, remember the senior pranks?"

"Yeah, but those were at the end of the year, in 2015."

"Oh, yeah, good point."

"I know, hey, what do ya say we go hit the sled hills, last night's storm hit pretty hard and I hear that Dead Man's Drop is home to some wicked sled races right now, so I say we hit the sled shop and have a race." Soarin said.

"You're on!" Rainbow said as she jumped out of her seat.

"Totally." Soarin said as he slipped Mrs. Cake a twenty-dollar bill and ran out of the café after Dash.
