Rainbow Above My Heart
Chapter 3
Previous ChapterNext ChapterRainbow Dash couldn't believe what she was about to say. "I don't know for sure, but I may be in love with you to." Fluttershy just looked at her as if she didn't believe a word of it. Rainbow Dash saw this and continued trying to convince her. "I have been having very strange dreams about me and you. The first was me and you on this very cliff about to jump because nopony accepted our love, and the other one was our wedding." Rainbow Dash had no idea why a smile just came to her face, but she just shrugged it off. Fluttershy just continued to look at Rainbow Dash like she didn't believe her. "If it were anypony else standing in front of me right now I would have already walked off, but for some reason I don't want to lose you as a friend, and who knows maybe with time we could become more if you would even still give me a chance."
"You know what Dash....Sorry Rainbow Dash I mean, anyways, I have nearly killed myself because of you, so even if I did believe what you have told me I don't think you deserve any of my affection." Fluttershy replied as the look of hate returned to her face.
"Please Shy, I am begging you to give me a chance." Rainbow Dash said as she sat on her flank and put her hooves together. She wanted nothing more than to earn Fluttershy's trust back, and she was willing to do anything.
"I made a mistake when I thought I loved you, and now I regret it more than anything. It would be best if we stayed away from each other." Fluttershy replied in an unforgiving and cold tone. She walked away without even saying goodbye. Rainbow Dash felt a pain in her chest. She felt like she was going to fall apart where she sat. She stood up and looked over the edge of the cliff.
I should jump and end it all. Rainbow Dash shook her head to try and shake the thought she just had. No, I am stronger than this! She knew that suicide wouldn't solve a thing. Isn't it funny Dash? Just this morning you were saying to yourself that you couldn't even immagine feeling this way about her, and now look at you, she just broke your heart. Rainbow Dash took to the air and headed back to her home in the sky. She didn't want anypony to see her like this. Her face was soaked in tears, she still had a hoove print on her face from the slap she had reveived, and she couldn't speak anymore without her voice cracking. She landed slopily infront of her door and opened it. She slammed it behind her and went strait to her bed to just lie there and cry.
Fluttershy saw that her door was already open and slammed it after entering the cottage. Angel jumped for joy when he saw Fluttershy was still ok. She ignored him and went to her bathroom. She cut the rope binding her wings to her side. There was a picture of Rainbow Dash she kept on the mirror. She pulled it off and ripped it to shreds. She looked in the mirror at her self. You idiot, how could you love her? You should have known she would have done that to you! She punched her mirror and it shattered. The shards of broken glass had cut her hoove pretty bad. She opened the medicine cabinate and retrieved some bandages that she used to doctor herself up. Rainbow Dash was right, she isn't worth killing myself over! The hate she felt for the pegasis she thought she loved for so many years was filling her to the brim. I need to sit down, my head is starting to hurt. She went downstairs into her living room and sat on the coutch. Angel crawled up beside her and laid his head on her right hind leg. "Well at least your still hear for me Angel." Angel looked up at her and nodded.
"I'm sorry I scared you like that, I promise that I won't ever do that again." Fluttershy said. She could tell by the look in Angel's eyes that he was thanking her. She stroked his fur for a while until she dozed off.
A dream crept into her mind. It began with her walking up to the cliff she had tried to jump off of not to long ago. Rainbow Dash was standing there looking over the edge. "We have to jump Dashie, it's the only way we can finally live in peace, away from all these bigot ponys."
Rainbow Dash replys with a single tear escaping her eye, "I know, and I'm ready, I'm just scared that there realy isn't a place to go when we die."
Fluttershy put her foreleg around Rainbow Dash's shoulders and in a comforting tone said, "Have faith Dashie, We have to do this, no matter where we are after we die as long as I'm at your side I will be fine." The dream then changed to a different one.
Her and Rainbow Dash were standing in the clearing she had divulged her secret in. They were face to face wearing wonderful white dresses. Fluttershy was smiling as she asked, "Do you promise to love me forever no matter how tough life may be?"
Rainbow Dash replys, "I do, and do you promise to love me forever no matter what obstacles stand in our path?"
"I do." Fluttershy replys, and with that there lips meet in a pationate kiss. Fluttershy woke up and found herself breathing heavily. Didn't Rainbow Dash say she had these dreams? Fluttershy pondered if this could mean anything. No, she just put those ideas into my head thats all, and it is nothing I need to worry myself about. Fluttershy gently moved the now sleeping Angel off of her and went up stairs to lie in her bed. She covered herself up and drifted into sleep again. This time she dreamed of what it would be like if she were born and raised in Canterlot as an earth pony.
Meanwhile Rainbow Dash was laying in her bed with a picture of Fluttershy held close to her chest. You could have told Fluttershy about the dreams you were having instead of flying away from her like that. She felt empty as if she had lost something very important to her. At least I saved her and she is ok, thats all I need, and if she is happy then I am to. Rainbow Dash tried to lie to herself to give the illusion that everything was going to be ok. She closed her eyes and hoped that she would have a dream about Fluttershy, for that was probably the only way she would ever get to see her again.
