Chapter 2

Fluttershy dodged the black storm clouds as she made her way to her cottage, her eyes full of worry. "I don't remember a storm being scheduled for today..." Fluttershy mumbled, but her words were lost in the storm.

Soarin', on the other hand, was horribly lost. He had flown through some rough storms in his day, but he had always known where he was going. He pushed ahead, and saw a pale pink tail fluttering in the winds ahead. He sighed with relief. Sudden;y, the taildived down. Soarin' did the same. When they pushed out of the cloud barrier, Soarin' saw the yellow pegasus land on the ground in front of a tree like cottage.

Quaint He thought When I settle down, I'd like to live somewhere like that.

He landed behind her, quiet as a mouse, and yet she still heard him. Fluttershy let out a scream and all the animals hid.. "Who, Who's there?" She said whirling around. "Oh... You shouldn't be here.. If Rainbow Dash comes back..."

"It's fine, I can deal with her." Soarin' said, softening his gaze. He looked at the animals, hidden in their dens and caves. "It's alright guys, you can come out.." He said, in a tone so soft, it might have even been a whisper. The animals cautiously looked at Soarin's hoof, which he had extended to them.

Fluttershy sucked in her breath.

The animals slowly crawled out from their hiding spots and walked up to Soarin'. The squirrels crawled onto his back and laid in-between his wings, and the birds landed on his head. Soon all the animals had gathered around Soarin', nuzzling him. Even Angel had joined them.

Fluttershy gasped. No one had ever successfully calmed ALL the animals. Except for her.

"Mister Soarin'...?

"Yes, Madame Fluttershy?"

"Would you care to join me inside for tea?"

~~~~~~~~

Rainbow walked through the streets of Ponyville, with a grin on her face.

I can't believe Spitfire gave me a seasons pass to ALL their shows! Man, now I can see Soain' every weekend! Rainbow thought. While walking down the path to Sugarcube Corner, She saw ponies talking with wide eyes, laughing at something in the paper. Curious, she trotted over to SIlver Spoon and Diamond Tiara, the class bullies.

"Heya girls! What's everypony so excited about?" Dash asked, expecting an insult from Diamond Tiara.

"Oh look, it's the blunderbolt!" DIamond Tiara snapped.

Dash shuddered. That girl was scary.

Silver Spoon looked at the ground, pawing it with her hoof. "The Wonderbolts are in town!"

"AND ONE OF THEM LIKES FLUTTERSHY!" Diamond Tiara finished.

Silver Spoon sighed. Not again, she thought. "Diamond Tiara, could you please STOP interrupting me?!"

You get em' girl Dash thought.

Diamond Tiara rolled her eyes. "Oh shut it, Silver Spoon. You know that you wouldn't last a second without me."

Silver Spoon sighed. Diamond Tiara was right. Maybe I'll talk to Scootaloo about trying to befriend Silver Spoon....Dash thought.

"Uhhh... nice talking to you girls..?" Dash spat and took off into the sky before the two fillies could say anything else.

Dash flew straight to Fluttershy's cottage, not stopping for anypony. A Wonderbolt in love with Fluttershy? She snorted. I wonder which one! Probably Fleetfoot or someone... How nice for her! Maybe we can go on a double WOnder date when I'm with Soarin'!.

Rainbow landed outside Fluttershy's cottage with a bang. She walked up to the door, and knocked. No answer. Dash pushed the door opened and walked inside. Empty. How peculiar. Rainbow left and flew up to Cloudsdale, figuring she'd see the shy pegasus up there.

Meanwhile at Fluttershy's cottage, two pegasi were emerging from their hiding spots. They looked at each other and smiled. The blue and yellow duo had managed to hide from Rainbow this time.

~~~~~~~~~~

"Sorry about that interruption.." Fluttershy mumbled.

"That's fine, I didn't really mind it."

"So Soarin', tell me, wherever did you learn to communicate with animals like that?"

"I don't really know, I've always had an ability to communicate with animals, I guess."

"That's so fascinating...But your cutie mark, it is a.. uh.. pie."

"With a lightning bolt through it!"

A tea-kettle whistled.

"I'll get it..." Fluttershy stood up and padded over to the kitchen.

Soarin' rubbed his tired eyes and rested his head on the table. It's getting late, I should probably head back to the hotel. Spitfire must be worried.

"Alrighty Mister Soarin', here's your tea..."

"Oh thank you, but I have to go... Spitfire's probably waiting for me and all." He said looking at the floor.

"Oh.. that's quite alright. I'll see you tomorrow then?"

Soarin' gave her a confused look, stopping in the door frame. "We hadn't planned anything for tomorrow..."

Fluttershy inched over and gave him a kiss on the cheek, blushing madly.

"I....*squeak* just.. d-did."

The door shut.

***************

Soarin' raced through the clouds, doing barrel rolls and other tricks, then flying high and dropping low right before he hit the ground.

He fought back tears, as his eyes stung from the wind. But he didn't care. Nothing could bring him down.

Best. Night. Ever.

He spotted Cloudsdale in the distance, and slowed his speed. His stomach grumbled, and he decided to hit up a bakery for some pie. He landed outside of La Hoofa Bakery. Mmmmm....Pie. He walked in and immediatly regretted it. Oh God, she's here....

"Soarin'? Oh my gosh, is that you? OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHMOHMYGO- I mean, hey.. sup?" A certain cyan-pegasus asked.

Soarin' sighed. "Hi Dash..."

"Uh.. ya wanna grab a bite to eat with me?"

"I don't see why not Dash..." The ice blue stallion coldly replied. He sat down, and was immedialty served a slice of hot apple pie and a glass of hot carrot juice.

Soarin' took a big swig of the juice, savoring the flavor.

"Hey you know what I didn't know until today? That Fleetfoot likes mares!"

Soarin' spit his mouthful of Carrot Juice out. "BAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!" He looked up after recovering from his laughing, to see an unamused Dash, covered in Carrot Juice.

"Sorry about that..."

"No, It's fine. Everypony has bumps in their relationships right?"

"Yeah, me and Spit go through troubles all the time! But we work 'em out and we're friends again in no time." He said with a warm smile.

"Hehh.. friends? I always thought," Rainbow said inching closer," That we could be," She whispered running a hoof down his belly," More than friends..." She finished leaning in and pressing her lips on Soarin's.

"Mmmpth!" He mumbled, trying to push the mare on top of him away. He shoved her off and she landed back in her seat.

"Wowwww!" Dash sighed happily.

Soarin' stood up and glared at the satisfied rainbow maned pegasus who sat before her. "What the hell?! You can't just do that! I'm dating somepony else!" He spat.

"Who?" The cyan mare shot back, onviosuly angry.

"Fluttershy!" He snapped. "Oh shit."

He looked back to where the pegasus was sitting, but she was gone. The table had a pile of bits on it, and the chair still rattled from when she bolted away.

"Shit Shit Shit Shit!" Soarin' cursed.

His phone rang.

"Hello?" He spat into the receiver.

"SOARIN YOU BETTER GET YOUR BLUE BUTT DOWN TO THE HOTEL BEFORE I COUNT TO TEN OR I SWEAR TO GOD YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO BREED!" screamed a familiar voice. One belonging to the Wonderbolt's team captain, Spitfire.

Soarin' sighed and rose from his seat. He left the bakery and jumped off the side of the cloud, coasting down to the hotel resting on a cloud below.

Please be safe Fluttershy....Please be safe.

***************

Sorry it was so short, and some of the characters were off... "But oh well hoped you liked it!

Please point out errors!

Chapter 3

Fluttershy was hidden under her covers, shaking like a leaf. Nothing could calm her nerves, not even a world famous cup of tea from Angel.

Oh, what is Mister Soarin' doesn't like me back? I'd hate to put him in such an awkward position... I should apologize tomorow... she cringed, mid-thought, if he does come back tomorrow...

A knock on the door awakened her from her worried state. As she walked to the door, she could see a blue wing at her window. She froze. Soarin'....

She walked to the door and opened it slowly, not looking into the blue pegasus' eyes. As she studied the blue hooves, she noticed they were a brighter bkue, not an icy color like Soarin's.

Rainbow.

*************

The smell of bacon invaded Soarin's nose, slowly waking him from his deep slumber. He rose from his plush bed, taking his surroundings with every blink. His head hurt. He flopped back down on the bed and was about to drift off when he felt a hoof connect with his cheek.

"And THAT was for making me save your sorry flank from being fired last night and I had to take the blame you lazy colt-cuddler!" Spitfire ranted. Soarin' knew she didn't mean what she said. Filly-foolers and colt-suddlers were common in Equestria. He knew this because Spitfire was one, and she never got harassed.

"Heh..."

"I take it went well, no?" She said, eyeing his blushing cheeks.

"Kinda. Rainbow saw me and she tried to kiss me after." He mumbled.

Spitfires eyes froze. Her body barely moved. Why would she care if Rainbow tried to kiss me.... he pondered while looking at the yellow pony's face.

"No way." He said, coming to a sudden realization. " No buckin' way."

Spitfire swallowed and gave him a nervous look.

Soarin' burst out laughing and seeing the glare he got from Spitfire, he quickly controlled his bellows of giggles.

"Alright then, i'll talk to her. But only because I owe you from last night." He retorted, grinning.

"Wait, what are you gonna say?" She asked, nervousness in her eyes.

"I'm gonna break her heart, for real."

*****************

"Oh Twahlight sugar.... Where are ya?"

"Over here AJ!"

The earth pony smiled. It was nice to see the purple unicorn she loved so much spending time out of the library. She trotted over to the unicorn who was resting under a shady tree. She looked down at her and sighed. There she was, and with her nose in a book. As usual.

"Twilight!"

The lavender unicorn jumped a bit at the harsh tone. "Geez AJ calm down a bit, would you?"

"No! You promised ya wouldn't have yer head stuck in ah book all day and gosh darnit i'ma hold ya to it Twi!"

"Appleja-"

"No! I don't even wanna hear yer excuse now!" Applejack raged before storming away.

Twilight looked sadly down at the book that lay before her.

How to Have a Picnic for Dummies read the cover.

********************************

*The night before, Rainbow has just left the bakery*

Tears stung in her maroon eyes. But not tears of sadness, nor anger. Tears from laughing so hard.

As soon as Soarin' said Fluttershy, she left the bakery in a flash, so she could laugh it up on a cloud outside. She disembarked from the cloud after, just to fly for a bit.

As soon as she finished her giggle fest, Rainbow wiped her eyes whilst stifling a small chuckle to see Soarin' fly to the Pegamont Hotel and Spa. Fancy place she noted, i hope he pays next time she added, looking at the lack of bits she had in her pocket. But she didn't worry, she knew she had PLENTY more at home. It helped when your parents were famous movie ponies.

I think I'll head to Fluttershy's she thought and tell her what happened! She'll get a kick out of it! Rainbow did a barrel roll, laughing her head off before running smack dab into another cloud.

"Ouch."

******************************

*Present Time*

"Hey Fluttershy, you're NEVER gonna believe what I just heard!" Rainbow announced, strolling into Fluttershy's home.

"Wha-wh-what was that Rainbow Dash?" Fluttershy babbled.'

"Fluttershy, you can call me dash ya know..." Rainbow replied, giving her a confused look. " Anyway, as was saying, Soarin' said, he was dating you! How CRAZY is that? I mean, of all ponies, you! ANypony would go for me, obviously. He probably was intimidated by me anyway."

"Uhm, yeah." Fluttershy mumbled. "But, uh Rainbow I have to go right now."

Raimbow frowned. Weird she noted I just got here. Oh well, she's probably gotta go take care of some animals anyway.

"Whatever, I have to go practice anyway." Rainbow spat. She then frowned again, confused by her sudden burst of anger. Pushing past Fluttershy, she bolted out the door and jumped up, spreading her cyan wings and flying away.

Once the cyan pegasus was out of sight, Fluttershy sighed and slumped up against the wall. She hadn't even noticed she nodded off until the knocks on the door forced her awake with it's constant banging.

She stared at the door, tired. It must have been five minutes before she said anything.

"Emmmh" She barely managed, her sleepiness causing her to slip into unconsciousness for reasons which she did not know. Why am I so tired right now? she thought groggily I can't even think str-. She was interrupted by the door banging open and Soarin' bursting in.

"Fluttershy! Where are you?! Are you ok?!" He screamed, searching the room for her body. His eyes fell upon the unconscious pegasus' body lying behind the door.

"Awwwh shit Rainbow."

********************************

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.

"Ughhhhh...." Fluttershy opened her eyes groggily, expecting to see the inside of the hospital room she had visited so many times before. Instead she saw the inside of a castle. And not any castle, but Princess Celestia's.

She peered around to room, and saw all her friends, as well as others. Rainbow was passed out on the couch, and Pinkie was snuggled on a chair next to Gummy. Rarity lay on the floor, on a cushion of course. Twilight lay on the opposite couch, but oddly enough not next to Applejack, who lay on the floor.

No Soarin'.

Fluttershy lay there for what seemed like hours, staring out the window into the emptiness of night. She watched the sun rise, and thanked Celestia for the day.

"Fluttershy..?" A soft voice whispered from the door.

The pink maned pegasus smiled. "Hello..." She called back, "I see you took my advice on the voice lessons.."

"Yes, we have improved our voice much since our last meeting." The pony replied.

"It's nice to hear that Princess Luna."

sorry it's been awhile AND its a crappy chapter. uhhh still lookin for a pre-reader. i need one for another fic too guyz.

input, rate, track, comment, watch, etc etc

you guys rock.

Chapter 1

Fluttershy gazed at the sky with a blank expression on her face as Rainbow Dash landed in front of her.

"Well? Whadja think!? Was I awesome," Rainbow asked, pausing " Or was I AWESOME!?"

"It was... nice." Fluttershy sighed. Rainbow had messed up the entire routine, and it was sloppy and uneven. But Fluttershy didn't have the heart to tell that to her best friend.

"Come on Fluttershy! You have to be more.. uh- cheerful for my private performance for the Wonderbolts!" Rainbow ranted, "Did you see the way Soarin' looked at me? Oh god, he wants me. Lucky for him, I think I like him too. Eeeeee! This is so exciting!"

Fluttershy stared at the ground. She didn't know what was going to happen that night. She looked at Rainbow and sighed again.

"R-rainbow? I'm going to.. uhm.. head home and i'l see you later.. I guess." Fluttershy said, backing away from the confused cyan mare.

"Whatever, that just gives me more time to practice." Rainbow shouted in a huff.

~~~~~~~~

"Yo Applejack! What's poppin'? Twilight said walking over with a bit of "Canterlot Swagg" as she called it in her walk.

"Twahlight, what in tarnation are ya wearin'!?" Applejack laughed.

"Oh these old things?" Twilight proclaimed looking at her baggy sweats and gold chains "This is just one of the outfits the Princess used to make me dress-up in...I know.. It's kinda weird."

"Uhhh yeah sugarcube..Weird wouldn't even start to describe it." Applejack said, grinning. " But you do look mighty cute, so come 'ere!"

The two met each other halfway and shared a deep, loving kiss. They collapsed onto the floor of the barn in each others embrace and the two just laid there in each others arms.

"I love you Applejack."

"I love you too Twahlight"

~~~~~~~~

"Are they here yet? Are they? Are they here yet? Please tell me they are here!" Rainbow shouted as she flew up to Fluttershy who was perched waiting to announce the show.

"Uhm yeah, they are behind the cloud..." Fluttershy mumbled.

"Schweet, let's get this par-tay started!" Rainbow cheered.

"Did somepony say PAR-TAY?!" said a high pitched voice from below the cloud.

"Not now Pinkie!" Rainbow snapped.

The happy bouncing sound ceased, and Rainbow looked through the cloud to see a rejected Pinkie walk away. "Whatever.." Rainbow said while getting into position.

The sky cracked with planned thunder and lightning.

"L-ladies and gentlecolts.." Fluttershy said, emerging from the clouds. She looked at the Wonderbolts sitting on the cloud below her. They were all staring. At her. She shivered. "Pr-Prepare yourself for the pony of all ponies. Please welcome Rainbow Dash..." She said trailing off at the end.

The Wonderbolts looked expectantly at the sky, waiting for the Rainbow blur to shoot by. Except for one. Soarin' couldn't take his eyes off the pale yellow announcer. She was quite pretty.

Spitfire nudged him. "Yo Soarin', stare much?"

Soarin' snapped to attention. "Wha-what? Oh sorry... She's just.. pretty. But whatever. We're here for Rainbow Dash, right?"
He sighed. Soarin' knew the cyan mare had a crush on him. He just didn't know what would happen.

Suddenly the sky lit up with a bright sonic rainboom. The other 'Bolts oooohed and ahhhed, but Soarin' was looking at the frightened yellow pegasus. He flew from his perch towards her, completely ignoring Rainbow.

Fluttershy saw him approaching and her eyes grew wide. He landed next to her.

"Are you alright Miss.."

"Fluttershy..."

"Yeah, I saw you shaking. are you sure you are ok?"

"You should really watch Rainbow..."

"No, the other 'Bolts will fill me in later."

"No, I meant if Rainbow sees me talking with you she'll..."

Soarin' knew what was coming. "Yeah, I'll go."

Fluttershy watched him fly away. She sighed. Colts were always hitting on her, but they were always jerks. But he seemed different.

Rainbow landed in front of the Wonderbolts after her fiery routine

"Well done, Rainbow!" Spitfire and the other Wonderbolts praised.

"Thanks! Hey Soarin', did you like it?" Rainbow asked leaning in close to the light blue colt.

"Oh it was awesome..." Soarin' replied, while looking at the pale yellow pony who was flying towards them.

"Pshhh... I know.. I AM rather awesome!" Rainbow gushed. "Uhh... So Soarin', you got a marefriend?"

A burst of laughter came from Spitfire. "Bahahahahhaha! Soarin'? A marefriend? Bahhahahaha!" SHe could barely talk between her bursts of insane laughter.

"Oh... I see" Dash said with a smile on her face. "So Soarin', uh you wanna go out to get a bite to eat?"

Soarin' couldn't move. He was shocked. Why would she.. just ask that? Damn... He thought That girl has balls!

"Oh I actually have my eye on another pony..." He said blushing, looking at Fluttershy out of the corner of his eye.

Rainbow's face fell. Spitfire saw and decided to use this as a good time to talk about the show. "So Rainbow... Come over here and talk with me about training for the 'Bolts."

"OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHHHHH!" Rainbow squealed, running over to talk with Spitfire.

Soarin' gave the yellow Wonderbolt a helpless look. She silently mouthed go.

He obliged.

~~~~~~~

Trixie hadn't been in Ponyville in a few weeks. She returned for one pony, and one pony only. Twilight Sparkle. As she trotted down the street she got strange looks from the other ponies. But Trixie brushed it off. She cantered up to two fillies. They seemed nice enough.

"Hello! Have you two girls seen Twilight Sparkle?" Trixie asked.

"Uhm.. Oh my gosh, like what are you wearing?!" The magenta filly asked.

"Titi.. she hasn't done anything..." The smaller silver one said, "Twilight's in her library.."

"Uhhh.. Thanks." Trixie replied.

As she walked away, she heard the magenta filly yell at the smaller one. She sighed. Poor grey filly. Trixie approched the library. Here we go...

Trixie knocked on the door.

"Comeee in pardnerrr!" An unfamiliar voice drawled.

Trixie shrugged and went inside. When she saw what was inside, her jaw dropped to the floor.

Twilight was sitting on the couch, with her arms wrapped around another pony, and a lovesick gaze on her face.
