Swift arrived home and smiled at seeing Scootaloo and Silverspoon waiting with smiles on their faces. "Welcome home sir," Silverspoon said with a bow as Scootaloo rushed over hugging his leg.

"Do you think we can play?" Scootaloo asked playfully.

Swift sighed and patted her head. "Maybe later sweetheart. Daddy has to get ready for his big day."

Scootaloo giggled at his choice of words as a knock came from the door. Turning, they saw Twilight with a bag. "I hope I'm not interrupting."

"Not at all. I take it Rainbow's parents are taking a look around town?" Swift asked.

"That and the girls are getting the last of the preparations together.' Twilight replied. "I brought over your vest… i… I hope you like it."

Swift smiled and motioned for her to come in. "Why not come in? You can do the fitting. Meanwhile, Scootaloo and Silverspoon can go do some shopping."

Fluttershy sat alone in her home thinking over what her parents had revealed about her feelings for Swift. "Oh… my…" She whimpered moments before there was a flash of light as Discord appeared in his normal flamboyant arrival.

"Guess who's ready for tea!!!" He announced before noticing her distant look. "Something tells me we need to talk. And I'm not going to like it."

Fluttershy took a deep breath before smiling at him. "It's ok Discord…" She reassured. "I… just have a bit. I have a few things I need to think about." Sighing, she pulled out her tea set she used when Discord came over. "I can use a distraction."

"Normally I'd be flattered to be the first one someone thinks of for a distraction. But…" He replied as he stopped her from pouring the tea. "If there's one thing you girls taught me. Is, in times like this. A distraction is the last thing you need. Now tell me."

Fluttershy set down the pot and sighed. "I… I think I'm in love…"

Discord blinked as his head worked on piecing together what she said. After a moment, he blinked and sat and took his teacup. "I see… and who is this lucky stallion? I'd love to know and get to know him better myself."

"Oh… well…" Fluttershy sighed before starting to tell him about the mysterious pony and Swift.

Rarity sat back at the spa with Rainbow while the pegasus was relaxing while getting a massage. "I do hope that nice colt is able to deliver the message. He did seem to blush when I told him who I needed."

"I'm sure it'll be fine." Rainbow moaned softly before looking back at the worker. "Don't forget between my wings" She instructed as the worker nodded and went to work. Turning back to Rarity, she smiled. "I bet, if he has a crush on her. He's going to flip when he sees how awesome she'll look in the dress."

Rarity nodded and smiled at her. "True. And I have to admit. I never thought you'd be interested in having the works."

"It's a one time deal. Besides, it's my big day. I want to look my best." She laughed before glancing back with a smirk. "Which is a high bar."

"Knowing your standards. I would say so." Rarity agreed. "But I wonder… Why are you so against looking cute?"

Rainbow looked away for a moment as the worker read the room and excused herself before leaving the room with a random excuse. After a moment Rainbow sighed. "I had a bad experience in flight school." Rubbing her foreleg, she shivered. "I… I just…"

"Did somepony…?"

Rainbow shook her head. "It was the first time I dressed up. A pony I liked… mocked me." She glanced at her wings then her tail and sighed. "He said I wasn't… enough. The only ones that were interested in me while I was dressed up…"

Rarity gasped and covered her mouth with her hoof in shock. "Oh… honey."

Rainbow shook her head. "I never let it get that far." She continued. "But it still hurt."

"Did your parents?..."

Rainbow shook her head. "As always. They celebrated it like they do everything else. I decided to leave home and set such a high bar that I thought no one would reach it."

Rarity thought for a moment before getting up and going over to pamper Rainbow in place of the worker. "Hopefully now that somepony has met your standards. You can loosen up and maybe enjoy being girly a bit more?"

Rainbow thought for a moment. "No promises." She paused for a moment before smiling. "But I'll consider giving it a try."


Author's Note

When writing this chapter. I thought of "why would Dash have a problem with dressing up and enjoy looking good in a dress at the same time.". I was considering on going the route of her hate being alone or has a need of feeling wanted. But I may save that for another story.

Hope you like the set up. Gore and sex will come soon.
