Give Your Heart A Break

"Pinkie Pie!" called Rainbow Dash as she flew over to Sugarcube Corner, looking for the pink pony. There she was, baking cupcakes and sweets like always with that cheerful smile on her face. She hummed a very happy harmonizing tune which was like heaven to Dash's ears. Noticing Dash's presence, Pinkie turned to face her, beaming.

"Hey Dashie!" she chirped as she waved hi to her. "What's up? May I get you anything?"

"Nah, not really. I was just asking you if you wanna hang out today." she replied sheepishly.

"Sure!" said the pink pony merrily. "But can we go to this specific place I wanna go first? I wanna do something."

Dash nodded. "Anything for you, my dear." she did a cute little curtsy, causing cute giggles out of Pinkie.

"You're so adorable, Dashie! I'm almost finished with these cakes so wait for two seconds or so!"

In a flash, Pinkie put the cakes in the oven and seconds later took the other ones out of it that was all ready to be eaten. Rainbow Dash wanted to take a bite of one of her cakes. They seem so good. she thought. But I'm not that hungry. I can get some later I guess. Just then, Dash saw very beautiful violet gem on the counter. It has the most marvelous sparkles that she ever laid eyes on. She bet that Spike would probably love it since he loves to eat gems. Dash wondered what the gem is for as a lot of questions flooded her mind.

Two seconds later, Pinkie popped up in front of the blue pegasus, startling her.

"Okay, I'm done! Let's go!" she squeaked. She then took the gem off the counter and waddled away with Dash following behind.

"Where are we going?" Dash asked, wondering where the pink pony wanted to go.

"You'll see. Be patient!" Pinkie said with a smile as she waddled away.

Dash chuckled to herself at the way Pinkie waddles like a cute little duckling. She was so adorable when hopping and now waddling. Oh, Dash just couldn't even with all the cuteness overload, especially that she'll tell her later on today that she loves her. She just couldn't wait, she felt her heart rapidly beating as the butterflies in her started dancing all over the place but she was nervous at the same time too. Hopefully, everything will turn out good in the end, she thought. She also thought about why Pinkie Pie has the gem in her hooves. Could she possibly give it to a special somepony? Her heart fell with that thought. Pinkie probably loves somepony else, she thought sadly. Or maybe she want to give it to Rarity for her dresses? She rationalized it. Oh well, looks like she has to ask her about it.

"Hey, Pinks. What's the purple gem for?"

Pinkie gave her a small smile with a little sadness in her eyes. "It's for a very good friend of mine, Dashie. Somepony who really deserves this." Dash can feel her hopes crashing down. Pinkie Pie might probably have feelings for somepony else so, but she should not assume that. Despite that sad thought, Dash decided to wait a little longer to find out what the gem was really for.

Finally, the two ponies finally made it to their destination; the Ponyville Cemetery. It was in the far, far side in Ponyville where all the deceased and memorials were at for remembered ponies, pegasi, unicorns, alicorns, or any kind of creature here.

"Alrighty, Dashie. Here is the place." said Pinkie solemnly as she stepped foot to the open gates.

Rainbow Dash suddenly felt like the urge to protect her according to the creepy, dark mood of the place. Without any hesitation, she protectively wrapped her wing around the pink mare as she wandered her eyes around the place while the two were walking pass certain gravestones like if something would attack them or maybe a zombie pony apocalypse could happen. Pinkie seemed to noticed that when she giggled at the pegasus' overprotective side of her.

"I'm fine, Dashie." she reassured her as she looked at her with a sweet smile. "There's nothing here, really. Ya know, you're super cute when you get super protective and I like that." she winked at her. "And if you're scared, I'm here to protect you too."

Dash blushed. "You really know how to make me blush, Pinks. And I'm not scared! It's just I'm not used to a place like this." she mumbled nervously, low enough for Pinkie to not hear.

Finally, Pinkie and Dash made it to the exact destination aka Gummy's gravestone. Pinkie walked towards it, with the gem in hand as she put the beautiful gem down next to it.

"Hey, Gummy." she said to the headstone. "It's me, Pinks. How have you been? Are the animals in heaven treating you well? I know you're up there watching me now but I just want to say that I really miss you. I'm so sorry that I didn't get to you in time that day of the accident. It's my fault and it'll always be my fault." she continued as tears start to form in her eyes with a pained smile on her beautiful face. "I never should of thrown the ball too far to the road or I should of stopped you and sometimes, I think that I should of be the one to go, not you." Her voice started cracking as she begun to cry. "But I know you wouldn't want me to think this way and that you want me to move on through life without you but it just hurts to know that you'll never be coming back. That's all I have to say, I love you, I miss you and I'll always remember you." she finished as she slumped down, sniffling as she remembered those flashbacks she had when Gummy was alive. They really were the best moments ever but it hurts her to know that no new memories would ever happen again.

"Hey, Pinks.." Rainbow Dash started as she pulled Pinkie in for a hug. "That is very sweet of you to do this for Gummy. And I understand how you feel but please don't ever think that way. Everypony would be so heartbroken if they ever lost an amazing friend like you, including me. And Gummy wouldn't like seeing you this way, he wants you to move on without him. Well, I know he can't talk and all but I'm pretty sure that's what he's thinking." she said with a gentler voice to comfort the pink pony.

"You really have a good point, Dashie." Pinkie agreed as she looked up at Dash. "I wouldn't want to leave you all. I would miss you all so much."

"Same with us." Dash said as tears start to form in her eyes. She knew that couldn't bear losing one of her best friends, known as the love of her life. She would do anything to make her happy and be there with her thick and thin.

Pinkie hugged her as both of their noses touched.

"Thanks so much for everything, Dashie. It means so much to me that you want to help me through this."

"Anything for you." Dash gave her a warm look as she gave Pinkie a comforting kiss on the nose.

"Awww!" Pinkie giggled as her nose got tickled by it.

"And speaking of which, I also want to tell you something." Dash said with confidence. She was ready for it.

"Okey dokey lokey! Whatcha tell me?" Pinkie grinned. She batted her eyelashes cutely at her, waiting for Dash's response.

"How about I tell you in a different place? This place is giving me the creeps." Which was true. Despite the fact that Rainbow is very brave and bold, but a cemetery still creeps her out.
