Love Comes In All Colors

Applejack was hard at work with her apple bucking the next day. She had taken it upon herself to do the harvesting for the day so Big Macintosh could spend time with Cheerilee and their daughter. But Big Mac promised to work extra hard tomorrow. She had just filled the last of her baskets when Rainbow Dash came.

"Uh Applejack," She said. "Can I borrow some bits?"

"Sure thing sugah cube. How many bits do ya need?"

Rainbow Dash looked at the ground. "About a hundred."

Applejack's eyes widened. "Alright, I'm not gonna let ya have that much money till ya tell me what yer gonna use it fer."

"Well I've been thinking about a way to tell the other mares about me and Pinkie. Then I started thinking about how much that I love her. I'm positive that she's the one for me. So I…"

"Ya wanna pop the question in front of everyone?" Applejack said with a smile.

"Yeah…I was looking through my budget and I don't have enough to get a decent diamond for her."

"Aw don't sweat it suguh cube, I'd be happy to help ya out. I'll even help ya pick out the diamond."

"Thanks Applejack."

"No problem. Come on, let's go get her a diamond." The two mares walked out to the jewelry store and started browsing around. "See anything ya like?"

"No. I can't just pick out any old diamond. Pinkie's a special mare, so I want a special diamond for her."

"Excuse me," The clerk behind the counter said. "May I help you mares?"

"Uh yeah," Rainbow Dash said. "I'm looking for an engagement diamond."

"Engagement diamond? Ms. I'm afraid you're confused. It's the stallion's job to buy the diamond and propose to you."

Rainbow Dash froze. "Well…I…Uh…"

"I got this." Applejack went up and whispered into the clerk's ear.

"Oh I see." The clerk smiled. "I'm terribly sorry ma'am. We carry just the thing you're looking for." He opened the display case under the front counter and pulled out a pink diamond. "Made especially for a mare to propose to her marefriend."

Rainbow Dash stared at the diamond. "Oh my gosh it's perfect! I'll take it! How much?"

"Five hundred bits."

The rainbow colored pegasus's heart sank. "I can only afford three hundred."

"Don't worry sugah cube I got ya."

"Really? You'll give me that much?"

"Sure thing cupcake. Ya'll can pay me back by helpin out 'round the orchard."

"Sure thing!" Rainbow Dash was filled with excitement. "Oh my gosh I can't believe it!" She bolted out of the store and did a loop in the air. "I'M GETTING MARRIED!"

Applejack giggled and turned back to the clerk. "Does it come with that little black case or do ya have to buy that separately?"

Later that night Rainbow Dash called all of her friends down to Sugar Cube Corner. She grabbed Pinkie by the hoof and pulled her in front of everyone. "Hey mares…" She said. "There's something I want to say."

"Well we're all ears." Twilight said.

Rainbow Dash turned to face Pinkie. "Pinkie, I could make a long, boring speech but I'm just going to cut straight to the chase." She got down on her hind legs, pulled out the diamond case, and opened it in front of Pinkie. "Pinkie Pie, will you marry me?"

Pinkie starred at the diamond and gasped. "Oh my gosh Dashy! I can't believe it! All I can say is…YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES!" She grabbed Rainbow Dashes head and kissed her.

The newly engaged couple turned to face the rest of their friends, who all were staring at them with their jaws dropped (except for Applejack of course).

"Yeah that's right," Rainbow Dash said. "Me and Pinkie are in love. Got a problem with that? Then buck off!"

Fluttershy shook her head. "No, I'm perfectly fine with it. It's just, I never thought you two were lesbians."

"Yeah," Twilight said. "I always expected you would want to sleep with the Wonderbolts."

"But you're cool with it?"

"Of course." Both Twilight and Fluttershy said. But Rainbow Dash couldn't help noticing that Rarity was staying strangely silent. "What about you beauty queen?"

Rarity jumped. "What? Me? Well I certainly don't hate you for it. But…I've never been too…fond of the subject matter."

"So you're saying you don't like lesbians?"

"If that's what you want to do then by all means do it…but it just doesn't seem right to me."

An evil smirk grew onto Rainbow Dash's face. "Well maybe Pinkie and I can change your mind."

Rarity started to take a step back. "Wha-What are you talking about?"

Rainbow Dash walked in uncomfortably close to Rarity. "Well you say it doesn't seem right to you. We could give you a couple drinks, put you in bed…" Rarity tried to back away but Pinkie got in her path. She leaned closer and sandwiched the white unicorn in-between Rainbow Dash and herself. "And show you just how right being with a mare feels." The two said in unison.

"I…I…I…Uh…Well…" Rarity started panicking. She pushed her way out and ran to the other side of the room looking like she was going to faint. Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash fell on the floor laughing.

Applejack started to laugh. "Now don't those two make the perfect couple?"

Rainbow Dash got up and collected herself. "Well come on Pinkie, we got ourselves a wedding to plan."

"Yeah!" Pinkie shouted. "We'll go shopping for wedding dresses tomorrow."

Rarity gasped and ran in front of the door. "ABSOLUTELY NOT!" She shouted stamping her hoof. "No friend of mine is simply going to "buy" their wedding dress."

"But Rarity," Pinkie said. "You make the wedding dresses."

"BAH! I can put those together in less than a day. I will personally create your dresses with all the love and care I can possibly put into them. They will be the best dresses I've ever designed!"

"Oh thank you Rarity!" Pinkie said while jumping up and down. "This is going to be the best wedding ever!"
