Just another Appledash fic... nothing real special.

Yesterday I found another brony at my school. We talked, and he said he was real into Appledash fics. This is for him. And, I guess anyone who likes Appledash fics.

I know, It's short. Keep it short, keep it to the point.

Written at five thirty A.M. on my way to school... don't expect it to be super special or anything. Criticism is okay, just keep it polite.

That's about it. Enjoy!

Chapter 1

Appledash

Short, sweet, to the point. Happy Friday, fimfiction.

"You're WHAT?" Twilight's voice resounded through the barn, her astonished tone causing fluttershy to cringe.

"We... We're in love."

Applejack's statement came as a shock not only to Twilight. The rest of the ponies in the room stood transfixed, scarcely comprehending the words they were hearing.

Twilight was adamant, her face contorted by shock. "Are... Are you sure you're actually IN love?"

Rainbow Dash spoke up. "Does this answer your question?" She pulled Applejack in close, their lips locking together in their first public display of affection. And boy was it a doozy.

"Wow! Dash, that was... Wow!"

Applejack was so caught up in Rainbow Dash's kiss she didn't notice Big Macintosh walk into the barn.

"Hey sis, I-" he was silenced by the scene in front of him. He locked eyes with his sister, watching his expression go from ignorance to shock to embarrassment. "Uhhh, maybe I should go-"

"No!" said Applejack, sporting an intense blush that threatened to burst right out of her head. "It's best that y'all see this, too." she turned, staring longingly into her partner's eyes. "Me and Dashie... We're in love."

For all his simple-mindedness, Big Macintosh was struck dumb. His own sister? In love with another mare? He had certainly never seen this coming. He knew he had to say something, but he was still in a mild state of shock. Finally, he managed to spit out, "Uh... Okay. I, Uh- I'm... Gonna go think for a spell." he strolled out of the barn, a look on confusion etched onto his face.

Dash turned to Applejack. "Is he gonna be okay?" For all her bravado, Rainbow was finally showing a soft, emotional side.

"Yeah. He'll be just fine. Ah think he just needs some time ta process the news. Ah mean look. Even Twi's gawkin' like a tourist."

Rarity cut in. "Well I think it's just wonderful! Wonderful indeed!"

Pinkie cantered around the new couple in circles, saying in a sing-song tone, "Oh oh oh! I'll have throw a 'Hey-guess-what-Rainbow-Dash-and-Applejack-are-doin'-it'-party!"

"Pinkie Pie!" snarled Applejack, "We are not 'doing it'! Right Dash?"

It was all Rainbow could do to keep her wings down in front of her friends, the memories were so fresh. "I don't know about you Applejack, but I'm sure that about sums up what happened last night." As soon as the words were out of her mouth, she collapsed on her back, crying tears of laughter. Even Twilight had to chuckle at the earth pony's reaction. As soon as Dash had stopped laughing, she received a not-so-polite shove from Applejack.

"That's NOT funny. I don't want y'all going round Ponyville and spoutin’ off about what went on last night." Apparently, Applejack had remembered the previous night as well, as she was shifting uncomfortably, a look of lust briefly adorning her face.

Dash went into another fit of hysterics. "So you admit it!"

Applejack could do nothing but roll her eyes. "This is the pony I just declared my love for!" she shouted, her voice laced with sarcasm.

"Oh calm down, Jackie. Laughter's the best medicine, and whatnot." After a few deep breaths, Rainbow regained her composure. "Now, as I was say-hic-" a petite hiccup escaped from her lips.

Now it was her partners turn to laugh. "Oh, now y'all done it!"

"Hic-shut up! It's not-hic-funny!" The five ponies overcome by laughter in front of her begged to differ, however.

"Oh come on now," Applejack said between giggles, "Ah think it's pretty cute." To reinforce her point, she planted a kiss on Dash's cheek.

The room was silent for a moment. "Hey, I think that worked!" said Dash. "My hiccups are go-hic-" anguish spread across her face, and she sighed, falling backwards in defeat. Seeing her marefriend in distress, Applejack flopped down next to her, cuddling up into her multicolored mane.

"Aw come on now. It's just hiccups. Nothin' to worry about."

"I just these darn hiccups make me feel so... Girly."

Applejack leaned in close, pecking her neck lightly as she spoke. "Well you certainly were a stallion last night."

Dash could no longer control her wings as they shot skyward, prompting an embarrassed reaction from the Pegasus.

"Oh my gosh, I am SO sorry you had to see that," she stammered, desperately trying to tuck her wings back next to her body.

"Are you okay honey bun?" asked Applejack, who was unsuccessfully trying to keep herself from laughing.

"Yeah, I'm fine," shot Dash, "I think I just need a drink."

Applejack jumped at the opportunity. "Oh! I got just the thing! I've been whippin' up a spiced cider that'll knock yer' wings off! Come on!" As she led the ponies off, Rainbow Dash dropped back next to Twilight.

"You've been pretty quiet, Twi. You okay?"

"Yeah," Twilight managed to get out, "It's just..."

A look of subdued horror spread on Dash's face.”Oh no. Please tell me you're not against me and Applejack being together, please!"

Twilight recoiled. "What? No! It's just... The whole 'mare on mare' thing is a bit... Foreign. Same sex relationships never really happened in Canterlot, or at least not publicly. I'm sure once do some research on it, I'll get better acquainted with the idea of you and Applejack."

Dash rolled her eyes. "Research? You are really something, Twi." Dash playfully punched her, but then became very serious. "Thank you, for being so supportive. We were really worried how you were gonna take it." she said, enveloping the unicorn in a bear hug.

"Hey, whatever makes you happy makes me happy." Twilight said. "Now, if you could just let go of me, you're kind of crushing me."

"Oh! Sorry!" Dash squeaked, a sheepish grin on her face. "Oh, by the way, don't tell anyone I went all mushy-gushy on you. I have an image to protect!" she said, puffing out her chest.

"Alright, I promise. Now let's go, I want to try That cider Applejack was talking so highly of." Dash, nodded, speeding ahead to catch up with Applejack, the two gently leaning on each other for support as much as affection as they walked out of the barn.
