“So let’s talk about how you were to Scootaloo” said Soarin, glaring at Rainbow. Rainbow Dash opened her mouth to say something, but then sighed, closing her mouth.

“You’re right, there’s no excuse for what I did” said Rainbow looking down.

“I understand you want Scootaloo to remain your little filly, but she’s growing up, and sometimes, you won’t be the only one for her” said Soarin, raising her face with his wing. Rainbow Dash closed her eyes, hots tears leaking out of her magenta eyes.

“I don’t want to loose her, I just want her to not go through the pain with her family again” sobbed Rainbow, as Soarin wrapped his wings around her.

“I know, but she needs to grow up” reasoned Soarin, “And Rumble seems like a good kid. And you won’t believe something about him”

“What?”

“He’s one of your biggest fans, and the co-president of your fanclub, but doesn’t want to admit it in public” said Soarin, smiling.

“Really?” said Rainbow, heart sinking.

“Yeah” replied Soarin.

“Oh man! I totally got mad at one of my fans, and you know how much I hate letting my fans down” moaned Rainbow, sticking her head into a pillow.

“Maybe you can fix that now” suggested Soairn.

Rumble slowly trotted towards his home, as a loud cough interupted him. Turning around, Rumble saw a cyan pegasus looking upset.

"I-I-'m sorr-ry" stuttered Rumble.

"No, I'm sorry. I loved having Scootaloo as a little filly" said Rainbow, tears brimming in her eyes, "Its hard for me to let that go"

"Its totally okay-" started Rumble.

"I need to thank you Rumble. You've made my little Scootaloo smile like she hasn't done in years. I may not want her to grow up, but I don't want take her happiness away" said Rainbow, tearfully smiling.

Rumble stared at her, jaw dropped. Rainbow chuckled, "So- I heard you were one of my biggest fans huh? How about I get to know you a little better?" asked Rainbow, extending a hoof. Rumble excitedly flitted his wings, doing flipping loops in the air, and then embracing Rainbow Dash. Her eyes widened as the grey colt hugged her, and she smiled, hugging back.

Soarin had seen the whole event, and nodded approvingly towards Rainbow Dash, as she noticed him and flashed a grin.

Scootaloo paced around the Cutie Mark Crusaders Clubhouse, as her friends tried to calm her down.

"This is horrible! Rainbow must be so mad" fretted Scootaloo.

"Don't worry, she's probably forgiven you by now" reassured Sweetie.

"She must have also gone and talked to Rumble. I don't want to know how that turns out" shivered Scootaloo.

"I bet those to are flying around like friends, having fun, not fighting" started Sweetie.

"Rainbow Dash will never forgive me!" said Scootaloo, ignoring Sweetie.

"Scootaloo, listen to us!" yelled Applebloom, "She's your sister, and she'll always be there for you. And if she doesn't, will I doubt, we'll be there for you"

Scootaloo looked at her friends tearfully, "Thank you so much girls"

The three hugged, and Sweetie Belle's eyes widened.

"Um, guys?" said Sweeite, pointing out the window. Scootaloo and Applebloom joined her at the window, and peeked out. A cyan pegasus and a grey pegasus colt were flying above Ponyville, doing tricks and circles as they went.

"Is that Rumble and Rainbow Dash- together?" asked Scootaloo.

The CMC ran towards Ponyville, and raced towards Rumble and Rainbow. Looking up in the sky, she spotted them sitting down on a cloud, chatting.

"Go, say somethin'" said Applebloom, nudging Scootaloo, the pegasus shook her head and trembled. Rolling her eyes, Applebloom shoved her out, as Scootaloo landed with a thud.

Looking down, Rainbow Dash and Rumble paused, and glanced at each other.

"Um, hey guys?" said Scootaloo, unsure.

Rainbow lit up with a smile, racing over to Scootaloo, and hugging her as tightly as she could.

"You scared me so much!" exclaimed Rainbow Dash, "Don't ever do that, and this was all my fault!"

Scootaloo smiled as well, and hugged back, "I'm sorry, and it was my fault"

"No it wasn't. I was the one who lost her temper, and a certain stallion helped me realize that everypony has to grow up. And I may be a bit overprotective" sighed Rainbow Dash.

"A bit?" smirked Scootaloo, raising an eyebrow.

"Okay, fine, a lot" admitted Rainbow, "But its only because I love you, and I don't want to see you go through pain again, and I just wanted you to stay the little Scootaloo I knew, and even though I'm not ready, I know you are"

Rainbow Dash wiped her tears, giving a sad smile. Scootaloo didn't know what to say, "Not matter what happens, I'll alway be your little Scootaloo, and no colt can get in the way of that"

"Speaking of colts" said Rainbow, ushering Rumble off the cloud, "Rumble and I were spending the day, and I think he's the right one for you"

"Really?"

"Well, he's one of my biggest fans, so that's fine by me" said Rainbow, grinning. Rumble anxiously trotted over to Scootaloo.

"We never really got to finish off on that date, huh?" he asked, blushing nervously.

Scootaloo blushed in return, "Yeah. What did you have in mind?"

"The park, we could have a quiet stroll, get to know each other?" suggested Rumble. He offered his hoof, and Scootaloo took it, as the walked off into the sunset. Sweetie, Applebloom, and Rainbow Dash watched, as Soarin floated next to the trio.

"How did it go?" he asked.

"To be honest, It'll take some time for me to accept it. But if Scootaloo's happy, that's all that matters" confessed Rainbow Dash, not taking her eyes of the duo still walking off.

"That's great. I know it hurts, but you'll get over it, I know you will" said Soarin.

"Thanks Soarin" she said, resting her head against him.

"No problem" he replied, "I guess all's well that ends well"

THE END.......IS JUST THE BEGINNING
