What happens in the barn stays in the barn.

The sun crept through the curtains and began to light up the darkened room. Strands of light flew over the floor, crawling up the bedside and over a large lump under the comforter. A pounding sound coming from the wooden door filled the room.

"Uhn, you gotta be kiddin' me..." the swollen eyed pony moaned as she pushed the comforter off herself and onto the floor, knocking almost everything that was once on the bed onto the floor.

Empty cans of cider, apple cores, rolled up tissues and old photographs covered the floor as Applejack hopped off the bed and struggled to get across the room. She grabbed the door knob and turned it slowly, just opening the door enough to peek out to see who was on the otherside, her big brother stood outside with a concerned look on his broad face.

"Applejack, did I wake ya up?" he asked, noticing the swollen, bloodshot eyes and uncombed mane.

She looked around behind her and shrugged her shoulders. "I needed to wake up anyways, thanks Big Macintosh" she yawned, pushing the door the rest of the way open and walking out into the hallway.

"Well, I heard a lot of noise comin' from your room last night, I didn't want to bother you or anything but I just wanted to make sure you were okay." Big Macintosh admitted, following his sister down the hallway and into the kitchen. "I mean, ya sounded really upset from what I could make out.."

"I'm fine!" Applejack hollered as she grabbed some juice from the refridgerator and poured herself a glass. "I was just a bit upset, nothing to worry yerself sick over!"

Big Macintosh stood there for a moment and sighed. "Fine, if thats how ya wanna act then fine! I'm just worried 'bout ya Applejack. I don't want you getting all worked up over some mare.." he implored as he made his way out the back door.

Applejack spun around in shock, dropping her glass onto the counter. "Darn it!" she spluttered, grabbing a towel to soak up the juices. She then gathered the pieces of broken glass and threw them into a small box on the floor. "Can't believe I just did that." shaking her head, she continued wiping the counter, making sure all the juice was soaked up.

Obviously too frustrated to get a simple drink, she returned back to her room, shutting the door relativly hard behind herself. She looked around once again, noticing everything she had knocked onto the floor upon waking up. Kicking things as she walked closer to her bed, she stepped on something that made a small 'cracking' sound.

"Whats this?" she fumbled to pick the item up.

In her hoof sat a small trinket of some sort. It looked like it belonged on a charm bracelet, with the small hoop attached to the top. It was shaped to look like an apple, the only reason she knew that was because it was painted red, but honestly looked more like a red blob. Applejack turned it over and looked at the small, scribbly writing on the back. It read:

"RD & Aj"

Suddenly remembering where this came from, Applejack sat on the floor and looked at it more carefully. RainbowDash had given her this charm just a few days after they had gotten together. RainbowDash had the stupidest look on her face when she gave it to her, a mix of embarressment and pride, but obviously it took a lot for her to give it to her so she just smiled and accepted the charm.

"Oh, RainbowDash..." Applejack moaned, putting her hooves over her face. "I need to go talk to you, explain everything..."

"Explain what??" a voiced asked, that could be no other than Pinkie Pie's perky tone. She was jumping up and down outside Applejack's window.

"PINKIE!!!"
