Chapter 27: Moving In (No Lemon)

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Despite what had happened a few days ago, Flash found himself even more scared now than he had been when facing Applejack's angry mother.

The teen was in his new apartment, which was now full of boxes waiting to be opened and have their contents placed in the room.

Flash's parents had helped him back all his things into these boxes and with their three cars, they had transported everything to Flash's apartment the previous day. Everything except Flash's bed, which he would be keeping at the house since his parents had gotten him a brand spanking new bed and mattress to celebrate his new apartment.

Now his parents were off at work, Flash having spent one final night at his old house before bringing the last of his things to his new home. The only thing left that he would need to go back for was Banana, his flurry little friend waiting back there for him to finish setting everything up for him.

As Flash stood in the living room, he looked around at the place and realised he would need to buy a lot of things before this place was worthy of being called his home. Firstly, he would need to buy a couch and some other furniture. He had his own TV, a Christmas Present from several years ago, but setting it up was gonna be a pain.

He would also need to buy a dining room table and some chairs to eat at, along with everything one would need to own in a kitchen. "Guess it's gonna be takeout for a couple of days." Flash opened a box and took out several photos from his room, looking around for a place to put them. But he had no idea where they would look good.

Flash groaned, having been keen to move out on his own but having no clue what he should do once he was moved out.

"It's official. I have no idea what I'm doing with home decoration." He groaned and put his picture back into the box, instead heading into the bedroom where his new bed was still in its box whilst the mattress rested against the wall. His desk was also there along with an office chair, which Flash would likely be using until he got a couch and table.

He opened up his bed's box and took the pieces out, beginning to look through the instructions but having no idea what he should do first.

Flash groaned, wishing his parents were there to help. "I'm useless on my own." As he said that, he heard a knock at the door and headed back to the living room. He expected it to be either another neighbour, or the landlord. But when he opened it up, he was surprised by what he saw.

"Hi!" Pinkie cheered, as she bounced into the apartment followed by Rainbow, Applejack, Sunset, Twilight, Fluttershy and Rarity.

"What are you guys doing here?" Flash asked, as Fluttershy blushed.

"I went to your house yesterday and the neighbours said you'd just moved out. I told Rarity and she remembered the address you'd told her for your new apartment."

"Indeed," Rarity nodded. "I thought we might come by today and get to see your abode for ourselves." The girls nodded, only for them to look around and see the place wasn't in much of a great shape. "I see we probably should have waited another day or two."

"More like a week," Flash stated. "I have no idea where I should put anything. Plus, I still need to get all my electronics set up. And I need to buy a bunch of furniture. I'm probably not gonna be having a house warming party for a good long while."

"We can see that," Rainbow looked into one of his boxes.

"No problem," Applejack told him. "This ain't that much stuff. If we all put our backs into it, a'h bet we could get this place lookin' great in no time." The others all smiled and nodded, Flash looking shocked by their agreement.

"Seriously?" He asked, "you girls would be okay helping me out?"

"Of course," Sunset nodded. "But don't think we'll be doing this for free. You owe us a serious pizza party when we're done." Flash smirked and nodded, as they started working. "So, what do you need doing?"

"I guess my bed needs building first. And I have no idea how any of it goes together."

"No problem," Applejack told him. "A'h do that kind of stuff all the time." She headed into the bedroom, Rainbow heading in there with her.

Twilight stepped forward, asking what each room was. Flash quickly pointed everything out, as Twilight checked all the boxes with words written on them. She then used her magic to lift them into the air and take them to the room their contents belonged in. Once that was done, she returned to the living room where the electronics box was waiting.

"I can get this all set up in no time. Don't worry about it." Flash smiled, Sunset offering to help with it. As they did, Pinkie rushed into the kitchen and check out all the cupboards and everything else in there.

"I don't have anything that goes in the kitchen," he told her.

"I know," she nodded before taking a pen and a sticky notepad out of her hair. "Trust me. I can look at any kitchen and tell what needs to be where." She started writing things down on the notes and sticking them to parts of the kitchen. To the doors of the cupboards and inside the draws.

Flash decided to let Pinkie do her thing, trusting she knew what she was doing.

He then turned to Fluttershy and Rarity, both girls looked a little awkward as they stood there. Flash realised he hadn't made a decision about which one of them he wanted to be with, something he had been putting off for obvious reasons.

"Um...Fluttershy."

"Yes?" Fluttershy blushed a little, clearly nervous about what he was about to say.

"Well...Banana's stuff is in that box Twilight took into the other room. Do you wanna set everything up for him. I know you'd do a way better job making him feel comfortable then I would." Fluttershy gasped and looked excited, as she ran into the room whilst Rarity stepped up next to him.

"I'm sure she'll do a perfect job," she smiled. Flash nodded, as he noticed Rarity was carrying a large purple dufflebag. "Now, darling. How can I be of service."

"Well, I could use your help in decorating." He looked over at one of the only boxes still in the room. The one filled with pictures and other things he had no idea where to place. Rarity smiled and they started taking everything out, Rarity noticing the number of pictures he had weren't many.

"Must of the things I want to remember, I have on my phone."

"True. But when do you actually ever look at your phone's photos?" Flash had to admit, she had a point. "Just imagine it. You're coming in from a hard day's work-" Everyone in ear shot snickered at this, since they all knew what a hard days work was for Flash. "You're exhausted and feeling drained. Then you walk it and spot a photo that reminds you of a fun time in your past. Isn't that just the perfect way to make yourself feel better after a long day?"

"Yeah, I guess that would be." Flash took out his phone and opened up his photo gallery, flipping through them and finding a bunch of photos he wished he saw more often. "Isn't turning a phone pic into a framed pic kind of a hassle?"

"Doesn't have to be," Twilight stated as she and Sunset worked to set up the TV. "Why don't you buy a bunch of video frames?" Flash looked confused by this. "Frames which are actually little computer screens. You just upload the pictures onto a memory card and put them into the frame. Then it'll change between pics so you don't have to cover your wall with pictures to see them all."

"Oh yeah," Sunset smiled. "I've heard of those. Don't they have solar panels the charge the battery and use motion sensing to turn itself on, so it doesn't waste power whenever nobody's around to see the pictures?"

"Exactly," Twilight nodded. "I got one for my parents last Christmas. They loved it because it flipped between them through the years. Their first date. Their wedding. When Shining and I were born. They can't get enough of it." The others nodded, thinking something like that sounded great.

Flash decided he would look into getting one of these frames. But for now, he and Rarity worked to put up the pictures he did have. They also found places for every knickknack Flash owned. A plastic shark he bought at an aquarium when he was younger. A fossil he had found in a river when camping. A toy train he used to play with when he was little. The things that represented who and what Flash was.

And Rarity seemed to understand how important each object was, placing them in areas of the apartment that they seemed to just belong. Although, a few objects would require a shelf putting up or some kind of stand.

"And done," Rarity smiled as she placed the last framed picture in its rightful spot. "What do you think, darling."

Flash looked around and already, the place looked a lot less lifeless. It was still a mess, but he knew that wouldn't last long. It was truly feeling like a home to him. "Yeah. This is great." Rarity smiled, as she looked over at the few items she hadn't put anywhere.

"Why don't we see how far Applejack and Rainbow are coming with your bed. If they're close to being done, we can put these things in your room." Flash nodded, the two heading in and finding the pair really were close to complete with the bed, which was already starting to look like it was ready to be slept on.

"Wow," Flash smirked, "you two are good."

"This stuff is easy," Applejack told him. "Ya'h just gotta follow the instructions." Flash rolled his eyes, only to then hear a gasp and look around to see Rarity staring at the large walk in wardrobe.

"Oh...my...goodness." She stepped inside and saw all the space that was within it. "I would do anything for the chance to have a closet like this."

Rainbow laughed. "Why don't you move in with him. Then you can have it all to yourself." Flash and Rarity blushed at this, with Rarity quickly grabbing the closet door.

"I'm organising this. Don't interrupt me." She slammed the door closed, making Rainbow laugh again with Applejack chuckling as well.

Flash rolled his eyes before sitting down and letting Applejack instruct him on how to finish the bed. The three soon had the bed fully constructed and were soon placing the mattress down on top of it, the three high fiving before Flash opened the box that contained a new bed-sheet, blanket, pillows and the covers for them.

As he made his new bed, Fluttershy stepped into the room looking nervous. "Um....Flash. I'm done."

"Great." Flash followed her and found the spare room was amazing. The food and water were placed in one corner, whilst Banana's puppy pad was placed in the other in case he needed to go whenever Flash wasn't home. His box of toys was in the last open corner, right next to the sliding door that led to the closet.

This closet wasn't as big as the other one, but still had plenty of room for clothing and other things. But at the moment, it was completely empty. "I think you should leave it open," Fluttershy stated as she slid one of the doors behind the other one. "Dogs like confined spaces. I'm sure when he's feeling stressed and you're not here, he'll enjoy coming here and relaxing."

"Cool," Flash nodded, "I'll make sure to do that. He looked around the rest of the room and found a few of Banana's exercise equipment were also placed in strategic locations, all over the place. Up against one of the walls was what appeared to be a large white plastic box, with a circle cut out of it. That circle actually had a rotating drum, moved whenever the dog inside walked. This would allow Banana to run as fast as he could without needing to leave the apartment.

There was also a device that shot tennis balls across the room, which Flash had been able to teach Banana to load by himself. And one one of the wall shelves was a device Flash had bought on a whim once, which fired a laser that moved around in a random fashion. That one always kept Banana entertained.

"This all looks great," Flash told her. "I know Banana's gonna love it." Fluttershy smiled, looking down as if expecting a pat on the head or something.

Flash wasn't sure what to do next, but luckily Twilight walked in before things could get awkward. "Flash. Everything's set up. We just need to set up the passwords for everything. You okay doing that now?"

"Sure." Flash quickly followed her, leaving Fluttershy to pout at the interruption.

Sunset had the TV on and was waiting for Flash to tell her password to sign in. Flash had chosen to have his TV, phone and everything else that could be, connected to the internet. That way he would only have to worry about one bill for all of it. Luckily, the landlord already had a building wide internet that he could use. The only downside was it was limited with the kinds of sites one could use. Flash intended to set up his own internet as soon as possible.

It took a while, but the internet connection was soon set up and the TV was working perfectly. And as Flash started seeing what kinds of programs were on, Rarity stepped out of his bedroom.

"Flash. You'll want to come see this." Flash had a daunting feeling Rarity had organised his closet in some insane way he couldn't hope to keep up with. After a few days, he would likely just hang anything up anywhere once he was done.

He headed into his room and saw the closet, the teen looking inside and finding the large closet wasn't very well filled up. One side had his dress clothes like shirts, dress pants and fancy shoes, whilst the other had his every day clothes and shoes. There were so few clothes, each shirt had a space between them the size of his hand.

Rarity sighed. "Darling. This wardrobe is wasted on you. You really should look into getting some more clothing to fill this place up with."

Flash sighed, "maybe. Might have been a better idea to make the other room mine and let Banana have this one. At least all my clothes would fit in that wardrobe."

"Absolutely not. You can't let such a luscious space go to waste. A room with a walk in closet and its own bathroom can't go unused." Flash frowned, wondering if he would end up buying a bunch of junk just to fill up this closet. Maybe an exercise bike or something. "Speaking of bathrooms. Do you have everything you need for it?"

"Um...I have a tooth brush." Rarity and the other girls who heard this just looked at him. "What?"

"You've got no body-wash," Twilight pointed out. "Now shampoo, tooth paste. Or even some towels. Were you not planning on washing yourself in the foreseeable future?"

"Of course I was. I just...didn't think about what I would need to wash myself." He sighed, "maybe I can run down to a nearby store and buy stuff to tie myself over until I can get something more permanent."

"You should also buy stuff for your other bathroom," Rarity told him. "What if one of us needed to use the restroom at this moment?" The girls all thought about it and were glad they didn't. "Alright. Come along." She grabbed his arm and started pulling him towards the door. "We'll go buy everything you need. Fluttershy. Do you wish to accompany us? Maybe you can find something Banana would like to help settle him into his new home."

Fluttershy smiled and nodded, grabbing Flash's other arm and helping her pull him towards the door.

Flash was completely lost by what was happening and turned to the other girls, who all smiled and gave him a wave as he was pulled out of the apartment. With that, they headed downstairs towards where Flash was parked in the complex car park.

Flash soon found himself, alone, with the two girls he was supposed to pick between. But to his amazement, the girls didn't seem to be thinking about that situation. They talked to one another about what they would look for and smiled as they drove towards a nearby store, arriving within fifteen minutes and quickly dragging Flash inside.

Flash was soon pushing a shopping cart around, as the girls were moving through the aisles ahead of him looking at the many different things they could buy.

"I thought we were only looking for a few bathroom necessities?"

"We might as well stock up on other things," Rarity smiled as she pulled out a set of silverware. She showed him the fancy pattern on the handles and Flash decided he would get them, since they were pretty cheap. He also bought himself a bunch of plates and dishes, along with several mugs to add to the one he already owned.

After that, they finally got to the toiletry aisle and Flash grabbed the body-wash, shampoo and other items he liked.

He let the girls decide what the guest bathroom needed, whilst he went to buy food for himself. He would need to do a weekly shop to make sure he had food all week long. Cereal for the morning, lunches to take to the studio with him, dinners he could cook or stick in the oven. Things that had always just been there in his old home.

"Guess this is what it means to grow up," Flash told himself. "Gotta make sure I've got plenty of stuff for Banana as well." He kept filling the cart with everything he liked. Luckily, he had never been a picky eater. Though he wasn't big on fruit, he would eat almost any vegetable. That combined with the right amount of protein, fibre and everything else, would hopefully keep him well fed and healthy for the foreseeable future.

The girls eventually arrived with everything he needed for his bathroom, with only some towels required to complete the list.

Flash decided to buy a set of ocean blue ones that were quite soft to the touch, since white towels were impossible to keep clean. The girls liked that choice and they were soon heading to the checkout.

The bill ended up being a lot more than Flash expected to spend, but he knew it was money well spent. He and the girls were soon carrying the paper bags back to the car and returning to Flash's new home.

As they arrived back in the parking lot, they spotted someone else getting out of their car. Victoria and her two daughters. Lily Pad, who Rarity seemed to recognise, and Water Lily spotted them as they got out and Victoria smiled at Flash. "Finally moving in?"

"Yup," Flash nodded as he suddenly found himself overloaded with bags. "We're officially neighbours."

"Good to hear." Victoria turned to her daughters and smiled. "Girls. This is Flash. He'll be living next door. Say hello." Water Lily did so, whilst Lily Pad just waved.

"Hi. I hope we get to be friends." They began to make their way towards the building and as they did, Flash decided to speak with Victoria about something. "Would it be okay if I left a spare key with you? Just in case."

"Of course," Victoria smiled. "And I wouldn't mind you having a spare key for my apartment, just in case." Flash nodded, as they entered the elevator. "So," Victoria smiled at Rarity and Fluttershy, "am I likely to see either of you coming out of the apartment in the mornings?" Both girls blushed, whilst Flash's eyes went wide in shock. She actually asked that with her daughters there.

"I guess we'll have to wait and see," Rarity smiled as they rode the elevator up. She then smiled at Lily, who had her phone out texting. "Lily. You like dogs, don't you?"

Lily looked up and nodded, making Rarity smile. "Well, Flash happens to have a dog named Banana. I'm sure if you ask nicely, he'll let you play with him whenever you want." Lily's eyes widened at this, a smile appearing on her lips at this thought. "And maybe you could walk him whenever Flash has to work late. I'm sure you'll enjoy that."

Lily and her sister both looked excited, Flash smiling and assuring them that he would be happy to let them so long as Banana was okay with it.

They finally arrived at their floor and both headed into their respective apartments, Victoria promising to be over with the key once Flash was finished unpacking.

When Flash and the girls stepped inside, he found the rest of the Rainbooms sitting around watching TV. Everything had been completely unpacked and as the apartment was now only missing a few items that would make it complete, that being mostly seating.

Flash handed Pinkie the groceries and took his personal bathroom stuff into his room, whilst Rarity grabbed the other bathroom supplies along with one of the towel packs. Flash took the other one and soon, his bathroom was stocked with everything he would need to enjoy himself.

Though he would likely take more showers than anything, he knew he would end up enjoying a few hot baths every now and then and couldn't wait.

With that out of the way, Flash found himself feeling hungry as he stepped out of the bathroom.

He checked the time and was amazed to realise it was an hour past lunch. He had been so busy, he had completely missed it. "Well, no time like the present." He took his phone out and started checking for nearby pizza places, returning to the living room and telling the girls his plan."

He quickly took the orders and they all agreed on three pizzas and several six packs of soda.

With how much he had spent that day, Flash was hoping to bank on the thirty minutes or free offer. But he had chosen the pizza place with the best delivery guy, as he managed to get there in twenty minutes. As such, Flash was parted with more of his hard earned cash. And as he took the good, he turned to the girls before an idea came to mind.

"Instead of sitting around watching TV on the hard floor, why don't we take this party to the garden."

"What garden?" Rainbow asked, the girls all looking confused. But Flash smirked before telling them to follow. And five minutes later, they were all standing atop the building roof in amazement.

They all moved onto the patio and grabbed the deck chairs, Fluttershy and Applejack choosing to sit on the grass, with Flash placing the pizza boxes on the floor for them to grab. Luckily, they had bought some paper plates Flash had gotten at the store along with some paper towels.

This allowed them to enjoy the pizza to their hearts content, all of them taking a soda with Sunset offering a toast. "To Flash's new life living on his own." Everyone cheered and drank, the lot of them enjoying the soda and starting to have some of the pizza.

As they enjoyed the view from the rooftop, they started talking about what they would be doing when summer was over.

"Did you manage to get into Everton?" Sunset asked Twilight, who nodded. "Bet you're gonna enjoy that. It's only one city over. You can come home every weekend."

"That'll be the plan," Twilight nodded. "What about the rest of you?"

"I'm heading to college two states over," Rainbow smirked. "Gonna study a bunch of different stuff and focus on my soccer career. By the time I graduate, I'm gonna have a bunch of teams wanting me for their professional teams."

Pinkie smiled and asked which state she was heading to, Rainbow replying with Pinkie gasping. "I'm going there! There's a baking course I'm gonna master. Then I'm gonna open my own bakery."

"What about the rest of you?" Sunset asked, turning to Applejack as she smiled.

"Ma wants me ta take some business courses. Ah wanna take over the family farm, so a'h gotta know all the boring stuff that comes with da'h fun stuff." They smiled at this, as they turned to Fluttershy.

"I'm actually staying here," she replied. "I'm going to start working at a local animal hospital. I'm also going to take an online veterinarian degree. When I pass that and get enough hands on experience, I can become a full vet and look after any animal I want to." They smiled at this, knowing Fluttershy would enjoy that.

Sunset guzzled down her soda and grabbed another, as the girls looked towards her. "I'm actually thinking of heading back to Equestria. Not forever. But I've still got some loose ends to tie up. Once I've put all my business there behind me, I can focus on my future here. Not sure what that future is yet. But I'm sure I'll figure something out." They nodded at this. They knew she would need to do this to truly enjoy her future.

"What about you, Rarity?" Twilight asked. "Were you able to get into that fashion course you wanted?"

"That I did," Rarity smiled. "And I've got my work placement all sorted out. It's going to be fabulous. I'll be splitting my time between college and real world work. And actually, the college I'll be going to will be in the same city Twilight's school is in."

Twilight gasped at this, she and Rarity smiling. "Maybe we can get an apartment together instead of taking our luck with the dorm." Twilight smiled, clearly liking that.

Flash smiled. "I'm glad you girls all got into the colleges you wanted. I wish I had your aspirations."

"You run your own film studio and you're saying you don't have aspirations?" Sunset asked, with Flash smirking at her.

"Well it's not like I spent my youth planning to take over my uncle's studio. It just sort of fell into my lap. Honestly, I had no idea what I was gonna do with my life after school. If my uncle hadn't called me, I'd probably be looking for a boring job or planning to go to college and study something I'm not interested in."

"Good thing then," Rainbow nodded.

"Do you think you'll always be working at the studio?" Twilight asked, Flash shrugging.

"Honestly, I have no idea. At the moment, I'm making a ton of money and I'm having the time of my life. I have no intention of stopping. But who knows what the future might hold. Five years from now, maybe I'll decide I want to become a teacher. Maybe in ten years, I'll decide to become a cop. Maybe in twenty years, I'll have made enough money to spend the rest of my life travelling the world and write the next best selling book. There's no telling what'll happen."

The girls all nodded. They knew some people needed time to find what they truly wanted to do. It was unfair to expect everyone to know what they wanted in life by such a young age. It just wasn't realistic.

"Well," Applejack shrugged, "as long as ya'h having fun and it ain't hurtin' anybody. You keep making movies as long as ya'h want." The others agreed. "Just be careful about how ya'h do things. The last thing ya'h want is to get some pornstar pregnant and get stuck with a kid, who would be heartbroken ta learn how they were made."

"That's true," Rarity nodded. "I can't imagine how horrible it would be, to know your conception could be watched by anybody. And given what most people do when they watch these films, that would be even worse."

"Yeah," Flash nodded. "Luckily, I take precautions to make sure that stuff doesn't happen."

"Good," Fluttershy sighed in relief as Flash took a sip of his soda. Then, Rainbow said something that made him spit it out.

"So, Flash. You gonna have any of us star in another film." The girls rolled their eyes, as Flash coughed before wiping his face. "What? We were all thinking it."

"Maybe," Sunset sighed, "but you didn't have to say it so casually."

"Besides," Flash told her, "I just had you and Pinkie in a film together. You can't be that desperate to get laid again." Rainbow shrugged, as Flash saw all the girls looking at him curiously. "Are you guys really serious? You want to be in another film?"

"Why not," Sunset shrugged. "It was fun the last time. We made a bunch of money and so far, nothing bad has happened since we starred in them. Nobody's called us out on it. So nobody in town's seen them."

"That we know of," Rarity nodded. "But yes, I too wouldn't mind another romp behind the camera. So long as it's not the exact same scenario again. And maybe it doesn't have to be with a man. Or at least, only with a man." She gave Fluttershy a knowing look, the pair smiling as Flash raised an eyebrow.

"Well what kind of films would you guys want to be a part of?" Flash asked, catching the girl's attention. "I mean, Fluttershy's film was a fantasy she wanted to live out. Any of you have any fantasies you'd like to live out?"

The girls remained silent for a moment, clearly trying to think of an answer. Fluttershy was the first to say something. "Maybe one where I'm dressed as a nurse or something, who needs to look after an injured patient. I always thought those outfits nurses wear in Japan looked cut and wanted to try one on." She blushed at this, as the others smirked.

Twilight spoke up next. "There was a story I read once. About a girl whose mother remarried and gave her a new stepbrother. But because the stepbrother was so handsome, she couldn't help feeling attracted to him."

"I get ya'h," Flash nodded. "I think I could work with that." And maybe have a little extra with it. "Wait. What about Timber. I thought you only wanted to be in a film to practise for him."

"I did," Twilight nodded. "And what I learned was really useful. But I bet I could learn more from another film." Plus, she desperately wanted to have another fun filled time. Memories of Timber's poor performance were making her never regions feel unappreciated.

"A story about a brother and sister," Rarity hummed. "That reminds me of a romance novel I read once. About a pair of siblings that fell in love, but hated their forbidden love. But then they discovered one of them was adopted, so they gave into their desires. It was quite a steamy book after that scene."

Flash thought about her suggestion and smiled, liking the idea. He would need to remember that and come up with something for Rarity in the future.

They kept discussing various different scenarios that they might enjoy, Flash continuing to make a mental note of them all as time passed. Eventually, the soda and pizza ran out and filled large trash bags Flash had brought with him. And as the girls saw the time, they realised it would soon be time for them to head home.

"My brother said he's gonna pick me up," Twilight stated.

"I can give a few of you a ride home," Flash told them. "I'm heading back to my parents' place to grab Banana. I don't mind dropping some of you off." The girls nodded, Sunset, Rainbow, Pinkie and Applejack agreeing to catch a ride. Rarity would be returning home with Fluttershy, as the group headed downstairs.

They returned to the apartment and Flash made sure everything was good there. At the same time, Victoria came out of her apartment with a key. One that she traded for Flash's spare key, the two neighbours nodding whilst Rarity and Fluttershy shared a look.

With that, everyone headed downstairs. And as they reached the parking lot, a car drove up and someone got out of it. That someone was a man a little taller than Flash, with white skin and blue hair. "Hey Twily," he smiled. "You ready to go." As he said that, someone else got out of the car. Someone Flash knew intimately."

Cadance smiled as she moved over to them. "Hello girls. Long time no see." The other girls smiled as she turned to the man she had screwed behind her fiance's back not too long ago. "Flash Sentry, right?" Flash nodded, "I remember you from the Friendship Games. You did quite well in the first round."

"Thanks," Flash nodded as Cadance spoke to the others for a few minutes. Twilight spoke with her brother before getting into the car, Cadance returning to the car as well whilst passing Flash.

As she did, she placed something in his pocket that Flash barely noticed. Once she was back in the car, it drove off and the others headed for their rides. Flash took a moment to remove the note that had been placed in his pocket and read it.

Hope you plan on having me star in another film soon. You're right about me not keeping that side of myself a secret. Gotta have some fun before Shining and I wed. And we could use a little more cash for it. So here's hoping you've got a plan for me.

Flash let this info sink in and put the not away before heading for the car, as he watched Shining, Cadance and Twilight drive away. Slowly, an idea popped into his head. A story formed in his mind involving Cadance and a few others. One that would tick off one of the girl's fantasies.

Putting it into the back of his head for a moment, Flash headed to the car and his eyes landed on Fluttershy and Rarity.

The girls smiled at him, as he watched them get into Fluttershy's car. He then got into his and sighed, knowing he needed to make a choice. So he drove off, following Fluttershy's card out of the parking lot. They headed off in different directions, Flash eventually driving out of sight of the apartment building.

But a minute later, Fluttershy's car drove back into the lot after turning around.

The girls got out of their car with Rarity once again carrying the dufflebag, the pair heading for the building and rushing inside before riding the elevator. Once they were back on Flash's floor, they stepped over to the other door and knocked.

Moments later, Victoria answered looking confused. "Yes?" She asked. "Can I help you?"

"We hope so," Rarity replied. "Can we talk out here? Away from your daughters?" She nodded and stepped out, closing the door behind her. "We were hoping to ask you a favour. We need to get back into Flash's apartment. We have a bit of a surprise for him and we need to be inside to do it."

Victoria appeared curious about what they were planning, looking down at the dufflebag as she did. "Can I have a look inside that bag? Just to confirm my suspicions." The girls both blushed before Rarity showed her the contents, Victoria looking into it and smiling. "Flash Sentry. You lucky boy."


Author's Note
