A quick AppleDash one-shot I decided to make while chilling before class. Lol

As short description implies, this was just something I decide to make for fun since I've never really written a fanfic before.

Applejack and Rainbow Dash have been the closest of friends for the longest of time, both being seen as brash tomboys that will always have the other's back. One faithful day, after getting back from spotting for each other at the gym, an accidental slip up may lead to both of them discovering something about themselves and each other.

A Rare Sighting

This story takes place in a human version of Ponyville, but not the EG versions of the characters exactly, for clarification.

The humming of multiple exercising machines could be heard within the gym, barely being drowned out by the music vibing out on the place's speakers. A modernized cover, of "California Love" rang through the room, motivating and rejuvenating the gymgoers as they got their game on. Two young ladies seemed to be going at it the hardest, the pair obviously taking their training regimens somewhat seriously. However, even though they were gymgoers, they certainly were no muscleheads.

Applejack head slightly swayed and bounced to the song that was currently playing, her hair thankfully kept together by her usual ponytail. It was more than just for a cute look after all, it made physical activities way less of a hassle with her long hair. A light humming could be heard as she let her mind wonder, watching the bouncing object in front of her, almost getting hypnotized by it's eye catching view. The multiple, vibrant colors pulling her eyes to the constantly moving subject, as it gently bobbed up and down.

This object, of course, was related to none other than her best friend, Rainbow Dash. What was a normal hair style for Applejack, looked like a rare sighting for her partner to wear. Rainbow Dash, who normally had her long and barely managed hair let down, had tied it back for their today's training session. Her multicolored ponytail was put on full-display as she went at the treadmill, letting Applejack spot her as she took a break. Applejack had her eyes fixated on the multicolored haired girl's ponytail, unable to remove her eyes from it. She didn't quite know why it was capturing her gaze like this, and for some reason, this felt like such a foreign view to her, that she felt it was almost a waste to not take in the sight while she could.

"Um... AJ? Are you ok???" Applejack suddenly heard, snapping out of the daze as she finally realized Rainbow had turned to her and had an almost concerned expression on her face. She suddenly felt some heat come to her face, having gotten caught staring at Rainbow Dash clear as day.

"OH! Sorry Rainbow, I was just day-dreaming and got all caught up in mah head." She chuckled, trying to play it off coolly in order to not weird out her friend. "Uh huh, if you say so, it's not like you to get lost in fantasies AJ, are you sure you're fine?" Rainbow Dash replied, a hint of worry in her voice. Seeing her friend worry for her instantly made AJ, feel bad about her vague answer, but she didn't want to come off as a creep to someone who she held so dear.

"I'm fine sugarcube, I promise ya!" She said with a reassuring wink, giving her best friend a hearty smile. Applejack could practically feel the relief that it gave Rainbow Dash as she instantly returned the smile. "I'm happy to know AJ, after all, I don't another one of my friends to be getting lost in their noggin. We've seen the two ways that that can go, between Twilight's intense brainstorming "sessions" and Pinkie's... Pinkie... moments... there's already a lot of us who do that." Rainbow Dash paused, taking a second to hit the "OFF" button on her treadmill. "My point being, I know you're one of the first people I can come to if I got any problems, and you deserve to know that I will always be here for you as well!" She finished as she stepped off the device and placed a comforting hand on Applejack's shoulder, giving the farmgirl a warm fuzzy feeling deep down.

Applejack had always felt a special connection with Rainbow Dash, and it felt nice to know that Rainbow got the same comfort in her, that Applejack got from Rainbow. Obviously she loved all of her friends as family, but their relationship had always felt... different, in it's own way, that she couldn't pinpoint with words.

Meeting Rainbow's gaze, Applejack gave her a confident nod back, and gave her buddy a firm thumbs up. "You bet hun, I'll always have your back as well!" She stated, enjoying every second of their personal little chat. The two had been spending more and more time together recently, so these heart-to-heart talks were always something she personally treasured, even if she lowkey felt that Rainbow would forget them the next day.

"Alright, I'm feeling beat, you done with your cardio for the day as well AJ?" Rainbow questioned, turning around to grab her stuff, removing her hand from Applejack's shoulder, making the farmgirl a little disappointed with how shortly the moment lasted. Shaking her head to clear her mind from the subject, Applejack focused on just getting done with their session for the day.

"Uh, yeah, I feel like I've done enough for today." Applejack pushed out, forcing herself to give an uncertain answer. In all honesty, Applejack had barely been able to give her full attention to their workout that day, she had been so fixated on Rainbow Dash's foreign, yet attractive, look. Applejack cringed from the probably not so subtle fib, and hoped that Rainbow wouldn't notice her white lie.

"Alright, cool, I'm ready to go if you are then, AJ!" She responded cheerfully, putting Applejack's anxiety at ease. "I'm ready as well sugarcube, but uh, I'll be a second, you go on ahead." Applejack assured as she needed a moment to collect herself and cool down. "Oh, okie, I'll go ahead and sign us out." Rainbow complied as she went ahead and left the room.

Letting out a sigh of relief, Applejack placed a hand on her chest, taking a moment to process things. Why was she feeling so weird, not just today, but in general lately? And why was stuff that she normally did with Rainbow Dash now giving her butterflies???

"Oh dude, that was rough to watch." A laid back and empathetic voice stated from behind her.

Applejack let out a quick yelp, and shot around, feeling herself get startled from the suddenly interruption. A young, blue and cyan haired girl stood in front of her. She wore a white hoodie, with black leggings and some neon coloring her and there. Black shades and violet lenses gazed back at Applejack, a kind smile on her face as she playfully raised an eyebrow.

"What the hay? You scared the hell out of me," Applejack replied, feeling her heartbeat already started to regulate, "and what do you mean by, "that was rough to watch?""

"Look, I don't know what is going on between you two, but I know what a crush looks like when I see one. And you are one of the worst liars I've ever seen." The girl stated, practically shattering the confidence Applejack had managed to lure herself into. "C-crush?!? What are you talking about?" Applejack slightly panicked as she got incredibly flustered from the insinuation.

This response got a slight chuckle out of the girl, making Applejack blush even more. "Alright, if you say so," the girl said in clearly unconvincing manner, taking her shades off and letting one of their earpieces hold them between her cleavage, "by the way, I'm Vinyl Scratch, it's nice to meet ya! I was hired to make the remixes that have been playing in the gym recently, and was checking to see if people were satisfied with my stuff." Vinyl continued, meeting eyes with Applejack, "and judging by your trance earlier, I'm guessing you were quite invested in my song... or possibly something else." She said with a wink, making Applejack feel like the waves of embarrassment were never going to end.

"Uh, yeah! The music, that's what it was!" Applejack quickly shot out, almost having no chill in her voice as she did so. This, made Vinyl let out another chuckle, as she pulled out a card from her wallet. "Riiight, anyways, like I said, I wanted to see what people thought about my tracks, so if you get a chance, feel free to rate my music." Vinyl said offering Applejack the card, which she quietly accepted. It had a phone number, a website, and even the words "DJ PON-3" was printed beside a musical note for a symbol. If she had the mind, she would go and rate Vinyl a 1-Star, due to this flustering encounter with the DJ, however, being the "honest" member of the group and all... 5-Stars would likely be the actual rating given.

"Alright, sure, I'll make sure to. And my name is Applejack." Applejack said, always willing to help out another's business. She took the card, but suddenly felt Vinyl's hands clasp together around her hand, catching Applejack off guard again. Looking into her magenta eyes, Vinyl suddenly got a much more understanding expression on her face.

"All joking aside Applejack, I've been in your place before, and let me tell you, it kinda sucked. I kind of get second hand embarrassment when I see someone fumble like their feelings like I used to," She said as she gave Applejack an empathetic smile, "don't let what you could do today, be slept on for tomorrow. There's no time better than the present after all."

Applejack was taken aback by this sudden seriousness, this DJ actually had some kind advice to give after the entire experience. She felt her hands leave hers, and let her hand hang there for a second as she took the advice to heart. She wasn't quite sure what she was even feeling herself to be honest, but what Vinyl had said resonated something within her heart.

She pocketed the card, and smiled from the experience, it actually had helped her clear some thing's up. "Thank Vinyl, this was definitely a 5-Star experience." Applejack stated, really taking the advice to heart.

"No problem, Applejack, it was nice to meet ya, and I wish you luck with whatever you and your girlfriend got going on." Vinyl said as she turned away from the farmgirl, placing back on her shades, and going to question some of the other gymgoers who liked her tracks.

"HEY AJ, YOU COMING OR WHAT???" A loud, raspy voice called from across the room, adding to the pile of things that was startling Applejack on this day. Looking over, Applejack saw that Rainbow Dash was waving over at her, clearly waiting on her friend to go with her. "Yeah, I'm coming hun!" Applejack called back, and felt a new and comforting feeling in her. That word, "hun," it had been starting to feel more special when she used it towards Rainbow Dash, and she was starting to understand why.

"That work out was awesome!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed as she stretched while walking out of the gym, with Applejack at her side. She noticed that Applejack was walking closer than usual, and she was almost avoiding eye contact. Now, it's normal to not always be making eye contact with someone, but it's weird to avoid it completely. She tried to shake it off, barely able to get Applejack's strange behavior off her mind. She couldn't help but feel she might have been at fault for this strange behavior recently.

They walked a couple of seconds, Rainbow taking note to time the gap once it had passed about 5 seconds. It started at 5, then 10, then 20, then 30, and before she knew it, Applejack had went a full minute without making contact or talking to her while they walked. She seemed to have been lost in her head again.

This time, Rainbow Dash choose to let the silence speak for itself, and watched Applejack as they walked down the sidewalk, an occasional car or two coming by to break the silence every once an a while. It wasn't that the silence was normally an issue, in fact, Rainbow secretly enjoyed the peaceful moments like these with her bestfriend. It was nice to just treasure the quiet moments every now and then, her life wasn't 100% action after all, even she needed a rest.

However, this silence, it almost had a sort of... tension to it, the look on Applejack's face was almost lost in complete thought. Whatever it was that she was thinking about, it had her deep in thought. It took about 5 minutes until Applejack snapped out of it, and looked over at a concerned Rainbow Dash, only just know realizing that she had been quiet for an extended amount of time.

"Oh gosh, I'm sorry Rainbow, did you ask me something again?" Applejack questioned, a hint of remorse in her voice. Rainbow's eyes locked with Applejack's, and she came to a halt, causing Applejack to do the same. Applejack felt a lump in her throat begin to build, the silence was getting to her now.

Rainbow Dash walked up to Applejack, getting close to the farmgirl, so close that Applejack couldn't help but notice how good she still smelled, regardless of their prior exercises.

Suddenly, Rainbow Dash placed a hand on Applejack's forehead, making Applejack's heartbeat skyrocket from the super-close contact. She hoped that Rainbow wouldn't notice the blush that had spread across her face as a result of her kindness.

"Oh wow AJ, you're burning up. Are you sure you're ok?" Rainbow asked, genuine concern and worry for her friend now showing. Applejack couldn't help but feel like her heart was about to explode from all the emotions rushing through her head at the moment. Embarrassment from how flustered she was getting, anxiety from making Rainbow worry, and even disappointment from wanting more were some of the many emotions that Applejack was currently trying to process.

"I'm fine sugarcube, I promise. I'm just feeling a bit... tired, is all." Applejack replied, trying not to make Rainbow worry anymore. Rainbow Dash, however, was too determined to let her clearly anxious friend deal with whatever was bothering her alone. "Alright then, let's go to my place, you can stay the night and we can relax together!" She exclaimed, making Applejacks heartbeat skyrocket even higher.

"You and me, are you sure?" Applejack asked nervously, getting a curious look for Rainbow Dash. "Umm, yeah? We do it all the time AJ, you sure are acting strange today." Rainbow stated, now being more honest and upfront with her concern. Applejack came to a sudden realization, by trying to make things less weird with Rainbow, she had been digging herself into this hole more and more, and now she had to make up for causing her friend this much worry today.

"I guess I have been, huh? Sorry for making ya worry Rainbow, I just didn't want to make ya worry because I had stuff on my mind." She stated, feeling her shoulders slump from the shame of causing Rainbow Dash to worry over her this hard. She suddenly felt Rainbow pull her into an embrace, and felt her heart flutter like crazy in response.

"You don't ever have to apologize for having stuff going on Applejack, it happens to everyone. We all got those confusing things going around up there, so what kind of friend would I be if I held that against you?" Rainbow laughed, holding Applejack tightly in the embrace. Applejack felt another smile come to her face, and shared the embrace with her colorful friend. "A pretty shitty one." She stated, getting a laugh out of Rainbow from her bluntness.

"That's a blunt way of putting it, but I guess I shouldn't be shocked with how honest YOU are being, huh?" Rainbow said as the two enjoyed the embrace for a couple more seconds, neither wanting to let the other go. It was only when Rainbow Dash noticed that that the sky was starting to turn a darker shade of amber, did she realize it was time to go.

"Oh yeah, it's about to get pretty late. We should get to my place before it get dark!" She exclaimed as she pulled out of embrace, grabbing Applejack by the hand and pulling her along. "Wait, you're place???" Applejack asked confused.

"Yeah, of course! That's the plan." Declared Rainbow as she turned and gave Applejack a heartwarming smile, not stopping as she kept them heading towards their destination. All Applejack could do was admire her friends beautiful expression, and give her a big smile back. "Alright Dash, let's go."

Rainbow Dash swung the door open, happy to have finally made it home after the long day the two had. "Home, sweet home~" Rainbow cooed as both her and Applejack stepped inside, locking the door behind them. "You wanna shower first, or do ya think I should first? I probably smell horrible." She chuckled, almost sounding proud of the fact she might have had a sporty smell to her.

"I think you smell pretty good," Applejack said without thinking, immediately feeling the regret of letting her mouth say something that strange. Thankfully, Rainbow immediately started laughing in response, and didn't take it in a bad way. "Wow, you got some taste then AJ, alright, I guess you can go first, since I apparently smell so good." Rainbow joked, not understanding what Applejack had meant prior. Applejack now wasn't sure if she should be thankful she got away with the compliment, or upset that Rainbow didn't understand what it meant.

"I guess I just like "weird" then." Applejack joked back as she headed for Rainbow's room, already knowing the layout of the house from their many sleepover's prior. She closed the door, and locked it behind her, letting a sigh out as she made he way to the bathroom. Maybe a shower was exactly the right thing to help her calm down from all of this stimulation?

The second Rainbow Dash heard the door close, she immediately let down her façade, and got to work. Obviously whatever was on her friend's mind was bothering her, so she had to find a way to get her out of this headspace.

For most people, it would be probably be a little hard to know what to do in a situation like this. Who knew exactly what someone needed to do in order to help their friend? Well, for the coolest person in Ponyville, Dash knew exactly how to handle her friend's mental anguish.

Applejack had always been there for her, and she didn't plan on letting Applejack deal with whatever was bothering her by herself. Thankfully, Dash had plenty of personal experience with this type of problem with her friends, so this was basically second hand nature for her to deal with. She headed to the kitchen, and quickly got to work.

"That shower was just what I needed." Applejack said to herself, walking out of the bathroom while wearing her friend's spare pajamas. It wasn't that odd to wear her friend's clothing, after all, they all did it at one another's house. However, today, it felt... weird? As if she was committing some creepy act by wearing Rainbow's personal clothing.

She brushed these thoughts off, making sure to not allow Dash to worry more than she already had. Heading out of the Rainbow's room, she was surprised to not see Rainbow Dash waiting for her in the living room like normal. She normally would be found chilling out and watching tv until it was her turn, however, the tv remote was currently tossed onto the floor, no sound or light emanating from the device's screen.

"Uh, Rainbow, where are ya?" She called out, wondering where her friend hand gone off to. A loud bang could be heard from the kitchen, making Applejack yelp for about the third time today. "AJ! Wait in there just one second, I got something for ya!" Rainbow Dash yelled from the other room, obviously up to something.

Applejack let out a small giggle, she was always so cute when she couldn't hide her plans. "Alright, I'll be waiting in here hun." The farmgirl replied as she walked over to Rainbow's couch, plopping down on it and hugging a pillow while she waited. This was always a comforting position for her, clutching a pillow while she brought her knees upward, it was just so relaxing for some bizarre reason. It almost felt like she was holding somebody who was there to comfort her. Speaking of comfort, Rainbow's couch had always been incredible to Applejack, she didn't know why, but it felt like she was resting on a cloud whenever she came over.

"Alright, let's crack that bottle out and see what's inside!" Rainbow exclaimed as she rushed into the room, two rather large bowls in hand. She plopped down right next to Applejack, making both of them bounce from the sudden motion. She gestured to Applejack, hinting towards one of the bowls. Inside of it was a wide range of ice cream scopes, so many different colors that it almost made Rainbow Dash's hair look tame. "Oh yeah, sorry if I got too much, I wasn't sure what you'd be in the mood for, so I just went ahead and got you some of everything." Rainbow laughed as she realized how over the top she might have gone.

Gladly accepting the bowl and it's contents, Applejack gave Rainbow a reassuring smile. "This is very sweet Rainbow, thank you." Applejack said as both of them got comfy beside each other. The positions they ended up in were quit different; Rainbow Dash had ended up resting on her side while facing Applejack, while Applejack had just turned to face Rainbow, keeping her comfy, pillow hugging position in check.

"So, you know I won't ever force you to do anything you don't want to do AJ," Rainbow said as both of them got to work on their ice cream, taking comfort in the iced treat, "but I wanna talk about what's bothering you." She continued, making Applejack almost spit out her ice cream.

Usually, Applejack was all for telling her friend's about her problems, she trusted them with her life. But this? This... was different. It's hard to tell someone what's bothering you, when the thing that's bothering you is your emotions for them.

"I'm not sure if I should Rainbow." Applejack said, being brutally honest with both of them, making both of their hearts sink in the process. A few seconds passed, both of them not sure how to continue the conversation after the blunt response. Both know that it wasn't meant to be harsh, but it still wounded them both. "Do you not trust me, AJ?"

"What? No sugarcube, I promise! I trust you with all my heart." Applejack said, making Rainbow jump from the sudden tone shift. "Well, I do, but this is something that I feel that you would probably hate me if I told you." She continued, getting a disheartened look from Rainbow, this probably sounded a bit mean, but knowing Applejack, she was saying the truth that both of them needed to hear.

"But I could never hate you AJ, you're one of my best friends." Rainbow Dash stated, placing her right hand on AJ's left. Applejack could feel the butterflies in her stomach flare up again, and wasn't sure how to respond after this contact. "How about this?" Followed up Rainbow, pausing as she and Applejack locked eyes.

"If I tell you something that has been bothering me recently, you tell me what's bothering you. That way, we can help each other work through whatever is wrong." She stated, still not breaking eye contact with Applejack. Applejack felt her heart skip a beat, the amount of reassurance and care Rainbow was showing right now was incredible. Rainbow Dash normally cared for her friends, but this time? It felt more intimate and passionate, as if she couldn't bare the thought of letting Applejack deal with this by herself.

"Ok Rainbow, it's a deal. If ya promise to let me help ya, ya can help me too." Applejack said with a smile, as she turned her and upside down, now letting the two hold hands fully. Rainbow visibly got happier from this revelation, finally making progress with her friend's conundrum. "And it can't be a small problem either, it's gotta bother ya as much as mine has been bothering me." She followed up, getting a "of course" nod from Rainbow in response.

"Ok, let's see..." Rainbow Dash started, closing her eyes. She seemed to really have to think about something that had been bothering her recently. From how long it was taking, either Rainbow was having a very clear mind, or she had too many problems to pick from. Applejack hoped it was the former, rather than the latter.

"Alright, got it!" She declared as she made her decision, confident in her pick. "You promise to not tell anyone unless I'm ready to, right?" Rainbow asked, just double checking with Applejack. This time, it was her turn to respond with the "of course" nod.

A few seconds went by, Applejack waiting expectantly for to hear what Rainbow had to share, but it didn't come. Rainbow seemed to have froze up, and for the first time today, she was the one getting nervous and fumbling with her words. It was faint, but Applejack could even notice her cheeks getting a little red at the moment.

"Wow, this is a lot harder than it looks on tv." Rainbow halfheartedly laughed, clearly struggling to get it out. This time, it was Applejack's turn to comfort her friend. Placing a hand on Rainbow's cheek and catching her off guard, Applejack looked into Rainbow Dash's eyes, and smiled. Rainbow could only smile back, feeling safer now, that look said more than any words could have. No matter what happens, no matter what Rainbow said next, Applejack would accept her.

A quiet and quick mumble of words escaped Rainbow's mouth as she broke eye contact, looking off to her side. "Uh, I'm sorry, what was that sugarcube?" Applejack asked, shocked by how Rainbow Dash was making Fluttershy seem like the second most quiet in the group.

"Imightbealittlegay." Rainbow quickly said, so this time louder, but still so fast that Applejack couldn't believe what she might've just heard. Applejack just sat there for a few seconds in dead silence, not sure how to react to the news. "I'm sorry, what? Was that?" She asked, needing to make sure she heard her friend correctly.

"I said," Rainbow Dash responded, now turning to her friend and making eye contact, "I might be a little gay... ok, maybe a lot." She finished, now full confidence in her words since she had finally put it out there.

Applejack couldn't move, she could barely even process the words that just came out of her friend's mouth. They were so shocking, but almost relieving in a weird way? She was shocked by this news, but at the same time, it was amazing to know that she might possibly find her the same way. A few moments of silence passed over the two, both not sure what to do next.

"Sooo... are you upset?" Rainbow Dash asked, breaking tension and obviously a bit nervous. Applejack could still barely manage to grasp the reality of what just happened. The girl she had been developing feelings for, had just came out to her. She felt herself start shaking, so many emotions were running through her head, and she didn't know how to handle them.

Noticing her friends physical change, Rainbow's worry only grew, now noticing Applejack's eyes seemed to be watery. Was the news that bad to her?

"AJ, please, say something." She said, starting to feel dread in her stomach. This is what she was nervous about, she was scared that her best friend would no longer see her the same anymore, and judging by the tears forming in Applejack's eyes, the news wasn't being taken well. Assuming the worst, Rainbow Dash went to get up from the couch, leaving Applejack and the bowls behind. "I'm gonna go lie down now, thanks for hearing me out AJ."

"No, wait-" Applejack suddenly shot out, lunging for Rainbow's hand and pulling her back to the couch. The sudden balance shift made Rainbow miss a step, and her foot accidentally landed on the tv remote that she had half-hazardly thrown to the side earlier that day. Losing her footing and fumbling backwards, both of them let out a yelp as Rainbow fell right on top of Applejack.

Bracing for impact, Applejack closed her eyes, and waited for Rainbow's body to collide with hers. But it didn't come. Opening one eye, Applejack looked up to see Rainbow's face barely an inch away from her, having caught herself with her hands that were now holding herself up from full hitting Applejack. The two just sat, unsure of what to do next. Rainbow Dash and Applejack's faces were both red as can be, the two lost in the other's gaze. Their mouths, now inches away from each other, informing the other that they were both breathing a little heavily from the sudden circumstance they were in. Rainbow couldn't believe how cute Applejack looked below her, all worry washing away as she allowed herself to get lost in the moment.

Applejack, on the other hand, could feel her heart racing from the sudden stimuli she was being exposed to. Her crush, purposefully or not, currently had her pinned against a loveseat. All the of day's stress and anxiety left her body, as she smiled and looked into Rainbow's eyes, feeling tears of joy stream down her face. This time, it was Rainbow's turn to hold Applejack's cheek and offer comfort.

"Are you ok? Not just physically... but with me?" Rainbow Dash asked, as they both inched a little closer to the other. Applejack's sweet scent suddenly filled Dash's mind, calming her down and giving her a warm, fuzzy feeling in her heart. This smell, the smell of apples, was never this pleasant to her in the past, but something about it right at this moment, it was the most comforting thing she had felt in a long time.

Not even needing to speak her next words, Applejack closed the small gap between the two, having her lips meet Rainbow's, both of them closing their eyes and letting their hearts do the talking. What they both thought would just be small peck, had turned into a passionate kiss with each other. They locked lips, not wanting to let the other go, enjoying every second of the kiss. They pulled each other closer, now locking hands as they embraced the other. What felt like a couple seconds turned into minutes, neither of them wanting to stop as they silently declared their love for the other. However, the need for air eventually came to the, and they slowly part lips, a strand of saliva quickly dissipating as a result. Both Rainbow Dash and Applejack were now panting, taking a few moments to catch their breath after their passionate making out. All that could be heard was the deep breaths between the two, their faces ablaze as they just stared at the other, almost both disappointed that their bodies required them to stop the session.

"So... that's why... you've been acting weird... all day." Rainbow managed to get out as she tried to catch her breath, Applejack slowly nodding in response. Feeling her heart fluttering as well now, Rainbow Dash lied down beside Applejack, and pulled her closer as they got comfortable once more. This time, it wasn't just physical comfort, but they also had each other to comfort one another emotionally. Applejack hugged Rainbow tightly, finally feeling so much happiness after all the anxiety that had been building up for a while now.

"Hey AJ," Rainbow Dash said as they both closed their eyes, feeling exhausted from the entire ordeal, "are we dating now?" She asked, nuzzling up to Applejack, enjoying the warmth she felt both inside and out. Without another word, Applejack placed a peck on Rainbow's lips, before letting herself nuzzle back into Rainbow's chest.

"Awesome."

THE END!
