I woke up with the morning light in my eyes and decided to take a shower. While I was showering I said to myself “What do I say to her? Do I take her out for a date or just say that I love her?” Either way, I still wasn't sure what to say to Dash But I hope I can think of something.

After my shower I dried off and got changed into my clothes. As I headed downstairs I smelled something that was familiar, eggs and toast? When I headed to the kitchen I saw spike cooking some breakfast.

“Wow spike you're a great cook, you know that!” He turned around with a smile. “Thanks Josh!, And good morning by the way” I sat on the Chair and asked spike.

“Did you really cook all this?”

“A little, Twilight mostly helped me” As he finished talking Twilight came in and said “good morning Josh! How are you this fine morning?”

I smiled with a friendly reply, “Quite fine really; you?”

“It’s been good thank you!” She then sat down to eat breakfast. Although I wasn't much of a talker I decided to start a topic. “So... read any good books lately?”

She gave me a weird look and replied, “Since when did you focus on what I read?” I didn't answer right away, just gave her a blank face before I can come up with something.

“Since you became... interesting.”

“I’m...interesting to you?”

I shrugged, “sure, your nice, smart, pretty and-”

“You think I’m pretty?” I froze up at what I just said to twilight. She stared at me with a blush while I continued to eat my breakfast.

“So anyways, need any help with anything?” She stopped blushing.

“I don’t think so? Spike mostly helps me with everything.” When I finished my breakfast I took the plate to the sink.

“Is there anything special going on today in Ponyville?” Just when she was about to answer I heard the door slam open and saw Dash with a face for hunger.

“IT’S APPLE CIDER SEASON!!!”

Twilight looked at dash and said, “Well good morning to you too Dash.” She’s here...now’s your chance. I walked towards Dash.

“Hi Dash, just the pony I wanted to see. There’s something I wanted to tell yo-” She then cut me off with her hoof in my mouth.

“Whatever it is, it can wait! We gotta get to sweet apple acres, PRONTO!” She then grabbed my hand and put me on her back, which was awkward for me and flew off outside. I held on to dash tightly as she was going fast, REALLY fast. When we finally arrived at sweet apple acres we both saw the big line up. Jesus, is apple cider really that good?! We then landed behind the red carpet with 2 poles.

“Well Howdy Josh!” I noticed Applejack trotting towards us, “Well howdy to you too AJ!” I replied. She then looked at Dash and said “...Howdy to you to Dash, You both excited for cider season!” I was about to say something till Dash flew above AJ.
“Excited, excited doesn't even BEGIN to describe this day!”

“Well I’m glad you're excited and how bout you Josh?” I shrugged. “I guess you can say I’m excited, I always wanted to try this stuff” She then put her hoof on my chest and said, “Well today’s is your lucky day fella!” Man is this gonna be sweet! I then heard a bell ring and Saw AJ looking at the counter.

“Well I gotta get going; you two have a good one!” C'mon Josh!, Say something to her!

“Ummm Dash... there’s something I’ve been trying to tell you.” She turned around with a smile.

“S-sure Josh, what is it?” I rubbed the back of my neck.

“Dash I just wanna say how much-”

“APPLE CIDER SEASON IS OPEN!” I was cut off by Applejack and saw Dash in front of the counter with her bits. She then bought two full apple cider mugs and brought them to me. “Here ya go!” She passed me a cup and gave her a confused look.

“Wait, you bought me some? Why?” She shrugged and replied “Why not? You said you always wanted to try it, so I got you one”. I grabbed the cider cup out of her hoof.

“T-Thank’s Dash!” This is the moment! I’m going to try cider in Ponyville, for the first time! Dash held her cup up and said “Cheers!” We both clanked our cups together and took a drink.

When I finished my drink I thought to myself It tastes like apple juice...put sweeter and more sugar...This.is.AMAZING! We both finished our drink and Dash gave me a smirk saying “Good isn't it?!” I nodded and tried to continue what I was gonna say to Dash...but forgot what I was gonna say!.

Shit!, C’mon man!, say something to her!

“Ummm..you look pretty today.” Dash gave me a blank look for a sec then blushed.

“T-Thanks! BUT what did I say about flirting with me!” She tried hiding her blush and I gotta tell ya...she looks cute doing it. “...anyway Dash, There’s something I gotta tell ya!” Her eyes lit up and said, “Yes...” I rubbed my arm and tried to say something to her, but kept choking. “I just want to tell you that how much you meant to me” Her eyes grow wider and came a little closer to me.

“YES!,...”

“So...you know, I lo-”

“HEY DASHIE!”

Is this gonna happen all the time?!

I looked behind Dash and saw Pinkie holding A LOT of cider cups, I guess she REALLY love’s cider. Dash sighed and said, “Hey Pinkie, what’s up?” She put the cups down and replied, “Nothing much, Just wanted to see what my friend’s are up to!” Me and Dash both looked at each other with confused looks and turned to pinkie saying, “Just...having a nice chat” I said.

“Ok well see you later, I got cider to drink!” Next thing you know she’s gone. “Well...that was weird.” I said to Dash. She chuckled and said, “Yep, She’s sooo random” I chuckled as well and replied “She IS pinkie pie!” When we finished our laugh’s Dash was the first to speak, “So... what were you about to say, before Pinkie interrupted you?”

...This is it!, you can do it!

“Ummm, I was about to say that how much you-”

“HOWDY JOSH!”

You gotta be kidding me!

I sighed and said “Hey Applejack...” She smiled at me and pointed her hoof towards my empty cup with a smile, “I guess you enjoyed the cider huh!” I nodded and replied, “It was awesome! You make the best cider ever!” She blushed at my compliment on her cider and replied “Well shuck’s sugarcube, Thanks! Well I best be going now, you two take care now you hear!”

When Applejack left it was just me and Dash again...I hope. “So Josh... you were saying” said Dash staring at me with a smile, ...Just.Say.IT! I started to sweat a little and Dash noticed me a little shaky “Josh is something wrong?, You know you can tell me” She then put her hoof around me with a warm smile. “We’re Best friend’s!...right?” I was silent for a few second’s dash started to frown a bit...which was making me upset.

“Dash... I Lov-”

“Hey Josh.”

FOR FUCK SAKE’S!!!!

I noticed Twilight calling my name while holding a sac, “Josh I almost forgot about your payment!” She handed me the bag and noticed the sound of bits. “How much is in there?” She smiled and rolled her eyes at me and replied “Oh I don’t know... bout 200 bits.”

HOLY SHIT!

I looked up at Twilight. “Twi...you don’t need to do that, giving me your bits and all seems wrong!” She gave me a little confused look and said “Oh those aren't my bit’s, they’re from the Princess!

She was VERY interested about the fact’s on human’s and she gave you a bonus”.

Wow...were they THAT impressive?!

“ I... don't know what to say Twilight...Thanks! You really are great!” She smiled and replied “Thanks Josh anytime!” When she left, me and dash both sighed and looked at each other. “Maybe it’s just best if you say it after” You’re losing her! Just say it! “Dash do you want to hangout!”. She stared at me with confusing and said.

“Is that what you wanted to tell me?”

No...

“Yes! So what do you say? ”She smiled and replied “I wish I could...but me and the gang are having a sleepover tonight at Twilight’s.” I was a little upset that she was having a sleepover... a girls sleepover! She rubbed her chin and said “You know what, you should come. YA, It’ll be awesome!” I noticed her blush a little.

“I don’t know Dash... I don't want to be a bother, and isn't there a rule in girls sleepover about no boys aloud?!”

“You're our friend!, we don't mind at all!”

Really now?!

I was surprised that she offered me to come; it’s not every day you get to have a sleepover with the mane 6! I then thought about it and said, “You know what… I’ll go!” She had a big smile on her face and something unexpected happen...she hugged me with a tight grip and said “YEESS!, your awesome!...you know that right!” She then notices she was hugging me and let go of me.

She blushed and rubbed her neck nervously “you know...that’s cool of you to join us” I couldn't help but smile a bit and reply “whatever you say dash” She smiled back and punched me lightly in the arm. “well...see you later Josh”. Next thing I knew...she flew off.

When I returned to Twilight’s, I helped her planned her sleepover, but since she has the book about sleepovers I’m pretty sure she’s all good. “Thanks for the help Josh, It’s really great that you can join us tonight!” I smiled and replied “anytime Twi!, so when is everyone coming over?”

“oh, any minute now!”

“That’s good”

“...so, did you tell rainbow?”

I stopped filling the bowl with chips and turned around “what you mean?” She looked at me with a smirk and replied, “You know what I mean Josh... did you tell her that you have feelings too?”

Really?! Again with this.

“Well... I tried... but I kept choking up whenever I tried to tell her, and when I DO get the courage to tell her we keep getting interrupted by somepony!”

“Well...maybe you can tell her when she gets here!” I don't think it’s a good idea to tell someone’s feeling’s in front of her friend’s...

“Fine... I will.”

She smiled and replied, “Glad to hear that Josh!” We then heard a couple of knock’s on the door, only to find out it was the rest of the gang. “Hey girl’s!” said Twilight in an excited voice. They all get together with a group hug...while I was watching them with a warm smile. They really do care for each other! Wish MY friend’s back on earth were like that.

“Well hello Darling, are you joining us tonight?” I turned and saw Rarity talking to me. “I guess so..” I shrugged., she then smiled and said “splendid!” That night we were doing stuff that normal girl sleepovers were kinda like...make up (not for me), Pillow fight. (I try my best not to hit them hard), and telling scary stories (most of them are not scary by the way...). but now we get to the truth and dare...which kinda worried me....

“Ok girl’s! who want to go first!” said Twilight

“Oh!, meMeMeMeMe!” yelled pinkie waving her hoof.

“Ok Pinkie! Truth or dare!” Pinkie was scratching her chin and thought about, until she made her decision.

“Dare.”

“Ok Pinkie, I dare you to drink this WHOLE bottle of pop!” Pinkie got up and trotted towards the bottle, picked it up, and drank the whole thing down! DAMN! she.can.drink! When she finished she burped loud and then giggled with a small blush, I couldn't help but laugh. The rest of the gang laughed too. When Pinkie returned she smiled and was about to choose one of us.

“Ok Fluttershy, truth or dare” She was a little nervous but decided her choice, “Um, truth.”

“Is it true that you named a bunny named angel?” The gang kind of looked at Pinkie kind of dumb and turned to Fluttershy.

“Of course, he’s my favorite!”

“Okie dokie!, just wondering!” It was now Fluttershy's turn to choose someo- I mean somepony! For Fluttershy it was hard to tell who she would choose.

She then finally made her decision to choose the next pony, or person.

“I choose.. Rainbow.. If you don’t mind of course.” She said shyly.

“Of course not flutters, I’m ready for anything!”

“Umm ok..truth or da-”

“DARE!”

“O-ok then.. umm.. I dare you to... fly to sweet apple acres and back.” Dash then flew off outside. We waited for like 10 seconds until she came back. That was quick! She landed back into her spot and said, “I could have finished in 7 seconds flat!” I decided to tease her and said, “But it wasn't! It was 10 second’s” She then stared at me with a serious face.. then said “watch it Josh!..it’s my turn you know!” she stared at me with a smirk and already chosen me.. Shit!

“Ok Josh, truth or dare?!” Better choose truth, just to be safe.

“Truth”

Ok then Josh...what do you think of me!” It was an awkward silence on everypony. I was kind of speechless. While Dash was staring at me waiting for an answer, I was trying to think what to say to her, so I decided to be a man and tell her from the heart of what I think about her. I Just hope that I say it right.

“Rainbow Dash... you are the most awesome pony I know! You're talented, hot, and sometimes a pain in the butt, but that’s why I like about you! You're you! I think that every stallion would be lucky enough to be with you! You've been helping me since I got here, including you girl’s! And I want to thank you. I want to thank ALL of you for making me feel welcome!”

The room was silent and the whole gang was surprised of what I just said. They stared at me with warm smiles’. Dash blushed like MAD; her eye’s glowing at me. I then tried to say something else..

“So Dash, what I’m trying to say is that I love yo-”

I was cut off by Dash pressing her lips against mine. I was quite surprised at first but then kissed her back. I gotta tell you making out with Rainbow Dash is GREAT! There was barely tongue, but it was great I tell you! She then finished kissing me and looked at me. She smiled at me and said.

“I love you too”
