SEJIE Chapter One

SEJIE Chapter One

“Applejack! Ya better be goin’ before yer late for school hunny!”

The voice of an elder woman carried across the morning commotion of the apple farm. She was standing on the old wood porch of the main house, setting a freshly baked apple pie on the ledge to cool. She could see one of her granddaughter’s at the edge of the apple tree orchard, picking a few of the left over red apples from the ground.

The girl, Applejack, turned her attention to her grandmother, sending a wave with her free hand.

“Alright granny! I’ma goin’,” she hollered back, dropping the apples in the bucket at her feet. She brushed the dirt from her dark denim jeans, and straightened her orange and white, ¾ sleeve, plaid shirt. Finally with a last tug on her long, blonde mane to make sure it was still hanging over her left shoulder, she hurried to grab her bag on the bottom steps of the house.

“Appleboom! Let’s get a move on!”

Moments after the initial calling, Appleboom came boltting out of the house, red hair rustling behind her. The young girl had on a smile as bright as day.

“Alrighty Applejack, Ah'm ready. Let’s go so ah can see the girls before class.”

The blonde smiled at her younger sister, taking a few spare moments to fix the large pink bow sitting on top of her head. After making sure the yellow shirt and denim capris were clean, she motioned her sister off to her truck. If they left now, they would have plenty of time to make it to Ponyville Elementary School and Ponyville High School. For a town without many horses, it was quite a stupid name.

Applejack sighed, following suit after her sister, who was already in the truck and pressing the horn nosily. Appleboom was never in a hurry for school unless her friends had some kind of plan brewing in their tiny heads. Hopefully this time it could be something nice, and didn’t require a call to the principal’s office.

Finally the blonde managed to dig her keys out of her bag, also finding her cell phone in the process. The corner of the screen was lit up with a message sign.

“Applejack! Hurry up!” Appleboom whined from inside the closed car window, yet her whine was just loud enough to break through the glass.

“Hold your horses missy, I’ma coming,” Applejack replied as she opened the truck door, clicking open the message on her phone. She wasn’t surprised to see the first contact of the day was from Rainbow Dash, nor did the message she sent: Meet me in the art building before class, AJ.

A smirk tugged at the corner of her lips, and she pocketed the phone without a reply. She entered the truck and slammed the door shut, starting the ignition effortlessly. Within moments they were on their way into town, and the beginning of a new day.

_____ _______________ _____________________ _________________________ __________
It was a fifteen minute drive at most to Appleboom’s school when the traffic was good, and living by a farm with a dirt road normally meant for good traffic. Applejack barely got a goodbye in to her sister before the younger girl was jumping from the truck. She joined her friends, Scootaloo and Sweetie bell, on the sidewalk, and they all managed a wave before they took off to the playground.

“Darn kids, they're all goin’ be the death of me someday,” Applejack mumbled to herself. She did not waste time dwelling on the plans of her crazy sister, but instead started her short journey down the street to Ponyville High School. The distance between the two schools was hardly ten minutes when driving. She pulled into the senior parking lot moments later, finding her numbered spot with easy.

She left her straw cowgirl hat on the back seat of the truck, and grabbed her tan side bag instead. It was against the school rules to have hats on campus, but the thought of leaving it behind was still a lingering thought each day. She ignored it, and started for the art building.

Just like almost every day, Applejack opened the doors to the art building and entered the long corridor. The walls on either side were displayed with student art work, although none of it was her own. A few pieces were from her friends though, mostly Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. Rarity had a design display in one of the window boxes further down.
She entered the third door on the right, finding it open just like it was every day. The room was dark, except for the light fluttering in from the slight opening in the blinds. That was strange; Rainbow Dash was always in the same room in the mornings working on some kind of project.

She barely had time to reach into her pocket for her cell phone before a body collided with her, and she dropped it to the floor. Applejack was pushed against the door behind her, shirt ridding up to feel the cool surface of the wood. Warm hands counteracted the cold as they pushed their way up the back of her shirt, digging nails lightly into her skin. She almost screamed in shock from the attack, but warm lips found hers before she could protest.

The warm body of Rainbow Dash pushed closer, and Applejack was no longer afraid of her attacker. She raised tan hands to dig into the rainbow mane of her lover, diving into the kiss with unrelenting passion. It was only moments before oxygen became necessary and the two broke apart, but the game did not end. Rainbow kissed and bit at the delicate skin of Applejack’s neck.

“Dash, ya know I don’t like these little games ya like to play in the mornin’,” Applejack protested, but the light moan traveling out of her mouth at the end disproved her point.

Rainbow did not seem to be affected by her lover’s lies and kept playing with the exposure of skin before her. A little hickie was already forming on the farmer’s tan skin, but her blonde mane could easily hide it.

“It’s hard going all day without getting to touch you, AJ. I keep thinking about the things I could be doing to you.”

Applejack blushed at the innuendo, but could not disagree. At times she also had inappropriate thoughts of what she could be going instead of school work. However, the fact did not change that as much as they wanted to touch each other, they could not.

“Ya know we can’t, RD. Ah just don’t think the people here r’ ready fer that. Even our friend’s would judge us,” Applejack explained, raising a hand to play with Rainbow’s colorful hair. She could feel the other stiffen at her words.

“I know, but sometimes I wish it would be easier. It would be nice to be able to take you out on a real date or to at least not act in front of our friends.”

Applejack laughed lightly, nuzzling the side of Rainbow’s head. “Ah don’t need all that sugarcube, as long as ah got you. Ah love ya, y’know.”

A buzzing sound filled the room for a few short moments to signal the beginning of the school day, and Rainbow pulled back with a sigh. She helped Applejack fix her shirt and straighten her hair, before tending to her own. She was only wearing a light blue tank top that showed parts of her wings tattoo on her back, and black cut off shorts. Once they were both fixed to perfection, she grabbed Applejack’s phone from the floor and handed it back.

As a parting gesture, Rainbow touched the underside of Applejack’s chin and drew her in for one last kiss. “I love you too, AJ.”

After that they parted ways. Rainbow started toward her art class further down the hall, and with one last glance, Applejack left the building in a hurry to get to math.

____ ____ _________________________________ _______________________
The final bell rang the minute Applejack walked through the doors to her math class, drawing the attention of the students already in their seats. The teacher ushered her to her seat immediately and she had no qualm obeying.

Twilight Sparkle sat to the right with notes and books spread across her tiny desk area. Her attire consisted of a black skirt, button-down purple shirt, and black knee high socks. It was almost the same as every other day, except different colors. She glanced over at Applejack as she sat down, leaning over to whisper to her.

“Where were you? I thought we were going over the homework this morning.”

Applejack winced, “Sorry Twi, Ah got a text from Dash this mornin’ and went to help her with somethin’. Ah totally forgot.”

“It’s alright. I know you wouldn’t stand me up on purpose.”

“Ah’d never, ya know that. It’s just been crazy lately and all.”

“Applejack, Dash and you have been together a lot lately. Is something going on?”

“Nah, everythin—,” Applejack began.

The clearing of a throat from their teacher ended the conversation for the mean time and Applejack was forced to pay attention to the problems on the board. She never understood a thing the teacher was saying, but the minute Twilight went over it with her, she was a natural. Well, maybe that was being a little dramatic, but she wasn’t bad at it.

After what seemed like a million years, the bell rang to signal a class change. Applejack packed her bag and waited patiently for Twilight to finish up one of the problems. As she began to pack her books away, Spike, her loyal sophomore assistant came to the rescue. He had Twilight’s school material organized and put away in a flash, and even proceeded to carry her bag to the next class.

“Hi Applejack, how are you?” the younger boy asked politely.

“I’ma just fine Spike. Thank ya kindly for askin’. Still helpin’ Twilight faithfully, ah see.”

“Of course! Twilight is the best mentor I could have!”

Applejack smiled and nodded in agreement. Spike was definitely the baby of their group, but he had easily grown on everyone. Twilight had pretty much taken him in when he was in fifth grade when his parents did not make it out of a car accident. He was sent into his aunt’s care, but she traveled too much to be stuck with a child. Twilight mentioned that the aunt still sent money each month to her family though.

“So do you want to meet up at lunch and go over the new homework? I brought a few of my books to show you some examples.” Twilight asked, entering the hallway. They had to split up for different classes.

“Uh sure, sounds great Twi. Ya want me to meet y’all at the normal spot?”

“That sounds prefect! See you there, Applejack,” Twilight waved her friend off, and headed down the hallway to her next class with Spike trailing her every move. She would have to hurry to get to class on time by now, and Twilight could never be late.

Applejack, on the other hand took her time getting to class. She had English with Rarity and Rainbow Dash, but as the year progressed, it was no longer fun. Since she and Dash had started their secret relationship, it had become harder to be around her with other people. They were always too close, too flirty, and too miserable at the same time.

Yet, every moment with her was one of her best memories. It was all too confusing and Applejack could feel a headache coming on. She pushed the thoughts aside because there was nothing she could do about them anyway. She and Dash had to keep their relationship in the dark for themselves, and their friendships.

Even after taking her sweet time, Applejack made it to class and into her seat between Rarity and Rainbow before the bell even rang.

“I do not know why you always put up this fight, Rainbow. I have made you a beautiful new outfit and you will not even take the time to try it on! It is marvelous, I guarantee,” Rarity spoke, trying her best to convince the other to take a look at her new line of clothing.

She was wearing one of the pieces by the looks of it. Diamond toned flowers were hand stitched into a white sun dress perfectly cut to fit Rarity’s curvy body. She was very healthy looking with a little meat to her bones and large breast to fill out her dress. Her hair and make-up were also looking up to perfection, but only the best was expected from their high class friend.

“I told you Rarity, I am NOT wearing a dress. No matter how awesome you may think it is,” Rainbow countered. “Besides, I have track and field practice almost every day and I can’t run in a dress.”

“Please daring, I would never expect you to run in my fabulous creation. I do believe that you have a locker room to change in.”

“Still not happening. I’d rather be dead then in a frilly sun dress.”

Applejack smiled, “Ah think you should try it sugarcube. Ya might look sugar sweet in ah dress.”

“Who’s side are you on?” Rainbow questioned, but a slight tinting of red to her cheeks was noticed by Applejack. Dash always got nervous and embarrassed by comments from her. “Fine Rarity, I’ll try it on, but no promises. It better be as awesome as you say.”

“Oh fantastic! It will, darling, I promise,” Rarity smiled, pleased with herself. She also noticed the strange interaction between the other two girls, but did not say a word. As of late, they had been acting this way a lot. Something was going on, but she could not tell what. “Speaking of dresses, I also made one for you Applejack.”

“Fer me? Ya shouldn’t have, Rarity. Ah always get fancy clothes from ya that don’t work on a farm.”

“Oh dear I know, but you could dress up for school once and awhile instead of wearing those dreadful jeans. Just come try it on. How about after school? You too, Rainbow.”

“I’ve got practice with Spitfire for at least an hour. I might be able to squeeze out early,” Rainbow explained. Missing practice was not an option with the championship coming up, and this year they actually had a shot at winning.

“Ah got to head over t’ pick up Appleboom and get her home, but ah can swing back if I’ma not needed at the orchard.”
Rarity smiled with excitement, “Prefect! I’ll get the rest of the girls to come too, since I obviously made everyone a dress. We have not spent time together in a while.”

“Alright class, settle down. Everyone open your books to page 93,” the teacher interrupted the classroom noise, and the groups quieted one by one.

Another long class began for Applejack as she did what was requested. Today, the class was analyzing Romeo and Juliet, a tale about star-crossed lovers who were forbidden to be with each other. It seemed ironic to be discussing- due to the current situation that she was going through with Rainbow- in front of an entire class, but no matter how many times she told herself that it was a book, it always came back to them.

Rainbow did not seemed fazed by the sickening love story as she pulled her phone out and began a text slyly. Seconds later, her purple-pink eyes were locking with green. A tiny smirk tugged at the corner of Dash’s and she motioned for Applejack to check her phone.

The blonde rolled her eyes and dug her own phone out of her pocket, opening her message box to see what was so important.

‘So are you going to be free all night? Because I have some awesome plans for us going on right now. Like you on your back and moaning my name…’

Applejack’s entire face raced with a blush. Dash was always one for words that made her hot and bothered. She sent a light glare that really had no intent Dash’s way, but the other girl just smiled in response.

‘Ah always knew ya were one for words, but ah'm sorry t’ say that’s about all. I’d like t’ see ya try.’

When Rainbow Dash opened the text Applejack sent, the look on her face made the blonde wonder if a challenge was such a great idea. Dash looked ready to eat her alive- yet she briefly wondered if that was such a bad thing, after all.

_____ __________ _______________________ ___________________________

Hours passed agonizingly slow until the bell for lunch rang across the school. Teens bolted out of the classrooms left and right, racing to meet their friends. Rarity, Applejack, and Rainbow Dash were behind many of the other students, taking their sweet time to get outside. They already had a table that was reserved for their group only, thanks to Rarity’s impressive flirting skills.

Twilight was already sitting at one end of the table with Spike directly across from her when the three arrived. Applejack was first to take a seat next to Twilight in order to go over the homework, and Rainbow took the seat directly to her free side. Rarity sat next to Spike, who was commenting on her exquisite beautiful.

“Oh Spike, you are such a sweet heart,” The girl cooed, hugging the younger boy to her side. He turned a million shades of red from the attention of his crush.

“Rarity you’re embarrassing him. Let him go,” Twilight scolded.

“No no, it’s alright Rarity. I don’t mind,” Spike insisted, giving Twilight a look of discontentment. He would allow Rarity to do whatever she wanted if it meant being around the beautiful woman.

Twilight rolled her eyes and turned her attention to Applejack, “Alright are you ready to study?”

Applejack opened her mouth to reply, but did not have time to say a word before Rainbow jumped into the conversation.

“Study? At lunch time, Twilight? That has got to be the un-coolest thing… ever. “

“Well if Applejack wants to pass math, I think we need to start studying immediately.”

“Right now? Couldn’t you do it in the morning or after school or something.”

“She’s falling behind in class after ditching me to run off with you every morning,” Twilight informed, her voice coming out a little more unpleasant than she expected.

“Well I can guarantee that she would prefer to run off with me than to sit around and study for thousands of hours a day with you,” Rainbow’s voice raised in tone.

“Girls… can we please try to lower of voices… people are starting to look over here,” The shy voice of Fluttershy sounded at the table as she approached, carrying a small cage with her pet from the agriculture department, Angel. She took a seat next to Rarity, and upon noticing the group had turned their attention to her, shied away behind her pink hair. “I mean… if you don’t mind.”

Applejack rejoined the conversation immediately, trying to defuse the situation, “It’s nothin’ to be gettin’ upset about girls. Ah have been ignorin’ Twilight fer Dash in the mornins’ and I’ma sorry. Ah’ll take all the help Ah can get with these stupid math problems.”

Twilight seemed pleased with her sincere apology and began to dig in her bag for the items she needed. Applejack turned her attention back to Rainbow Dash in the meantime, leaning in to whisper to her.
“I’d rather be with ya over this any day sugarcube.”

Rainbow also seemed pleased by her words, and let the situation go. She nodded in understanding before letting Applejack get to work with Twilight. She slouched over the table and began poking at Angel’s cage.

“Um, Dash…. Please… um… don’t do that. You’re going to… scare him,” Fluttershy protested weakly. She had no confidence in herself and could never stand up for anything. Rainbow briefly realized that it was a good thing she had friends around to stand up for her, just like she used to do for Fluttershy in elementary school.

Fluttershy and she went way back to when they were just kids. They had grew up together almost like sisters, and there was not a thing in the world that she was afraid to tell the pink haired girl. She knew the most intimate details of her entire life, yet she was also positive her dirty laundry was safe. Fluttershy never broke a promise.

“Sorry, 'shy,” she muttered, instead allowing her head to rest on the table top. She glanced over the school court yard, and although her vision was slanted, she could see a person waving at her.

She sat back up and looked again, noticing the striking golden hair and bright blue tee-shirt of the track and field team. Spitfire, the co-captain (along with herself), was calling her over. She stood immediately to head over, finding the rest of the group doing their own things anyway.

“I gotta go, guys. I’ll see you later at Rarity’s,” Rainbow informed, allowing her hand to settle on Applejack’s shoulder in a reassuring touch, before dropping to her side. “You coming, 'Shy?” she questioned, but had already started to walk off.

“Um, Yes!” Fluttershy quickly got up and said her goodbyes quietly before following after Rainbow with Angel in hand.
Pinkie pie came running to the table not seconds later, carrying a box full of cupcakes.

“Hey girls! Look what I brought! I hope everyone is hungry,” she exclaimed, setting the box in the middle of the table. She took the empty seat next to Rarity, fluffing her curly pink hair that could have been messed when running over.
Applejack’s attention was not on the problem Twilight was describing step by step, or on the conversation going on at the table about meeting at Rarity’s later. Instead, her green eyed gaze watched Rainbow walk across the courtyard with Fluttershy, stopping in from of the famous Spitfire.

Spitfire was one of the most daring and extremely competitive girls in the entire school, aside from Rainbow. She was also known as one of the few lesbians out of the closet on campus, but no one seemed to make a deal about it or face being attacked in an alley on the way home. Spitfire was not someone to make a foe out of.

Something about the girl rubbed Applejack the wrong way. Spitfire always had to put her filthy hands all over her girlfriend; touching her arms and brushing Rainbow hair from her face. She leaned in too close when talking, and always had a sickening sweet smile to her face. Applejack almost wanted to punch her for even looking at want was hers with such unrestrained lust.

Hers? Who was she kidding, no one even knew about their relationship, and Applejack was sure that Spitfire was not a psychic.

“Applejack? Hey, are you listening to me?” Twilight questioned, nudging the blonde’s shoulder to knock her out of her trance.

“Uh, yeah. Sorry Twi,” Applejack replied, turning her attention back to the problem. She had missed half of the steps while watching the other interaction, but she did not mention it.

“So is it agreed, then? Everyone is going to meet at my house?” Rarity asked the group, “The dresses are all done and I guarantee they are fabulous!”

“Oh, is it going to be like a party!? I love Party’s! I’ll bring the cake!” Pinkie pie exclaimed, clasping her hands together. She smiled so brightly that the rest of the table could not help but join in.

After everyone confirmed they would be there, Rarity stood up to leave. The main design team under her control was meeting with the theater students to discuss costume designs for the upcoming play. She said her goodbyes and started across the courtyard, high heels clacking after every step.

Twilight closed her notebook and shoved it into her bag beside her. “I suppose we should call it a day then, the bells about to ring soon anyway.”

“Ya, yer probably right. Thanks again fer takin’ time t’ help me, Twi.”

“No problem Applejack, and I’m sorry about before. I didn’t mean what I said about you ditching me for Rainbow.”

“It’s alright, no harm done,” Applejack said, packing up her own materials. She stood as soon as she was done, intend of finding said girl as soon as possible. “I’ll see y’all later, then.”

With only parting words, she turned to venture across the court yard. Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were still standing in the same spot, and Spitfire was leaning in close to whisper something in Rainbow’s ear. A light blush hit her cheeks and Applejack’s fists clenched. She stayed calm and approached the trio.

“Dash, can I talk to ya fer a second,” Applejack questioned, although her tone was nowhere near its usual friendliness. Rainbow sensed the difference in her girlfriend immediately.

“Sure, AJ. I’ll see you later at practice, all right,” Rainbow directed her response to Spitfire, who winked in return.

“Sure thing. Don’t be late. We have a lot to cover.”

Rainbow nodded and turned to leave with Applejack, throwing her arm over Fluttershy in the process to bring her along. Although the blonde really just wanted to be alone with her girlfriend for a while, she did not mention when Rainbow invited Fluttershy. As long as she was away from Spitfire, she was good.

Applejack led the way to the Science building, entering the double doors into the empty hallway. Everyone was still out enjoying the weather for lunch and since they were alone, she stopped in the hallway.

Rainbow released her captive and set her sights a-new, throwing her arms around Applejack and planted a light kiss on her awaiting lips. The pleasure or happiness was short lived as Applejack shoved her hard in the chest, causing Rainbow to falter back.

Rainbow rubbed the sore spot between her clavicle and breast, feeling the intense pain of Applejack hitting the delicate area perfectly. “Shit AJ, what the hell was that for?”

Rainbow looked up to see the look of complete shock on Applejack’s face, and then followed her gaze to Fluttershy. The pink-hair girl was just calmly standing off to the side, holding the bunny cage in front of her, and not even fazed by the interaction.

“Oh… I’m sorry…I shouldn’t have been staring,” Fluttershy mumbled out, turning her daze to the floor and letting her pink hair cover most of her face.

“Dash…,” Applejack trailed off, still holding a panicked look to her eyes. This was the end. This is the moment she had feared. Someone had found out and now everyone was going to find out that she was dating a woman, and it would only be a matter of time until it got around town. Her family would disown her.

Rainbow just scratched the side of her head nervously. “It’s alright 'Shy, this is kind of my fault. Why don’t you go ahead and leave.”

“Um, yes… alright… I’m sorry… Don’t worry Applejack I won’t tell a soul…,” Fluttershy looked up briefly at the shocked girl, and smiled lightly. She then turned and walked out of the doors they had entered.

“Why isn’t she upset? She doesn’t even seem t’ care,” Applejack questioned. She no longer seemed to be shocked, but now was returning to angry.

“Because she knows. She’s always known,” Rainbow explained, rubbing the back of her neck with one hand. “I was going to tell you, but you really didn’t want anyone to know and I had already told her.”

“This is what ah was afraid of Dash. Someone knows and it’s only a matter of time before she spills the beans to someone else.” Applejack crossed her arms defensively over her chest, the look of worry clearly imprinted on her face.

Rainbow approached her slowly. “Fluttershy won’t tell anyone. She’s always had my back.”

“How do ya know that?”

Rainbow smiled lightly, “We’ve been dating for almost a year AJ. Has anyone ever said a word to you about it?”

These reassuring words allowed Applejack to relax slightly. It was true that no one had even mentioned the idea of them dating, but could she really trust such a big secret to be kept by a friend, against other friends? Unfortunately, the cards were not in her favor.

“Hey, I promise that there is nothing to worry about, all right? Fluttershy is the person I trust the most, besides you anyway. She’s got our back on this one.”

Rainbow placed her hands on Applejack’s forearms and coaxed the girl to loosen up. Reluctantly she obeyed, wrapping her tanned arms around Rainbow’s sleek waist instead to pull her closer. Rainbow’s arms went around Applejack’s neck to hold her.

“Ah just can’t have them hate me, Dash. Not yet,” Applejack whispered.

Rainbow could feel her chest clench. She hated lying about who she was, but she cared too much about Applejack to go against her will. “I know AJ, I know.”
_____ ______________ _____________ ________________ __________________

The rest of the day passed uneventfully for Applejack, and for once, she was glad that it was boring. The drama that had occurred in the past hours was enough for at least a week, if not a month. However, the day was not over and she still had to deal with Rarity’s get together.

After she dropped Appleboom off at the house, Applejack wondered the farm looking for her brother, Big Macintosh. She needed to make sure he could handle the rest of the day’s work without her, or she would be forced to stay at the orchard.
Big Mac was at the far end of a grove, lifting heavy buckets of apples into a cart. Most of the chores for the day seemed to be done, and Applejack was almost sure he would not need her help.

“Hey,” she called, approaching the well-built blond man, noticing that each day her brother’s arm muscles became more defined.

“Hey,” he replied.

“Ah was goin’ head back to’ town fer a get together at Rarity’s, but ah wanted to make sure ya didn’t need me first.”
BigMac lifted above bucket to be placed in the cart, “Nope.”

“Are ya sure? Ah can stay.”

“Eeyup,” he replied, stopping his work to look at his younger sister. He smiled at her. “Go ahead.”

Applejack smiled back and nodded, “Alrighty then. Ah guess I’ll see y’all around supper. Can ya tell Granny that Dash might be comin’ too?”

“Eeyup.”

BigMac returned to his work and Applejack started her journey back to her truck. She had plenty of time to make it into town before people started showing up at Rarity’s house, but she did not feel like spending her time in the orchard today. Strangely, the orchard was normally her place to think.

She reached her old, beat up truck that had been handed down her to from her grandfather. The bright red paint color had faded over time to almost a dull brick, but the truck still ran as good as new. Applejack smiled as she opened the beat up door and climbed in, it was the only left of her grandfather, except his farm.

As usually, it only took a short bit of time to make it back into town, and with nothing to do for another 45 minutes; she headed back to the school. It had been quite a while since she had been able to watch Dash practice for competition, and it would be good for her to show her support. Their school had never won a championship, and the fate rested on Dash and her team.

She pulled her truck in one of the many empty spots lining the road of the track and field area, grabbed her tan side bag and straw cowgirl hat, and once again climbed out of the truck. She placed the hat on her head and adjusted the position. It felt nice to have the comfort of her precious hat.

She had her way across the short distance to the metal bleachers lining the field and quickly ran up the steps to the platform. Every seat was empty, and Applejack was not surprised. Not many people normally came to the practices. Walking further down the metal platform, she took a spot standing up against the rail overlooking the field, letting her arms rest against the cool surface as she leaned to get a better look.

“Ready, set, GO!” A voice called from a little to her right and a line of figures bolted from the starting lining. She could not make out many of the runners from this distance or their speed, but Rainbow’s colorfully hair could not go unnoticed. The girl was taking the lead over the rest by far, except Spitfire, was following close behind.

The team rounded the field and Spitfire pushed ahead, leaving Rainbow behind her. The two girls were fighting for the win, and Applejack could see the determination as they battled for first. If there was one thing she knew about Rainbow Dash that was that she did not lose, ever. At last second she pushed past Spitfire by sheer power, and crossed the finish line victorious.

“Aw yeah! That’s mah girl, always winnin’” Applejack cheered from the side line.

Rainbow’s head snapped in her direction, unaware that she had a cheering team to begin with. The minute her eyes locked with green, the shock dropped to happiness. She grabbed her towel from the railing and wrapped it around her neck to catch the perspiration from the run.

“Take five guys,” she told her team and started up the stairs to the bleachers. She was cut short by an arm on her own, holding her back to whisper something in her ear. Rainbow nodded, and replied to Spitfire before she was allowed to leave. Finally, she ran the distance over to Applejack, feet clanking against the metal.

Although she wanted too, she shied away from hugging the blonde girl after practicing and probably dipping with sweat. “What are you going here, AJ? I thought we were meeting at Rarity’s?”

“Yeah, but ah left a little early an’ thought Ah’d come to yer practice. Ah sure haven’t seen y’all run in a long time.”

“Come to think about it, that's true. You haven’t been here to see how cool and awesome I am,” Rainbow said, a smirk slipping onto her lips. “Did you see how fast I was running?”

Applejack rolled her eyes and slapped the other’s slightly tanned arm. “Don’t y’all be getting’ conceited on me now. Ah know yer good.”

Rainbow smiled and leaned in a little too close to her girlfriend, “In more ways than one.”

The blonde blushed and pushed the other way. Rainbow just loved to mess with her. “I’ma sure of that too missy. Now get on out there and actually practice,”

Rainbow glanced back at her awaiting team, who were all resting after a quick sprint. She turned her attention back to Applejack and was surprised when the farmer planted a quick peck on her lips. Applejack was never the one to be starting things out in public.

“Get goin’. I’ma be waitin here,” She reassured, and even winked as she moved over to have a seat on the bleachers.

Rainbow just followed her with a stare, eyes dropping for a split second to check her out. Applejack did have a nice body, in a healthy and curvy way. Realizing this was not the best place to be admiring her girlfriend, she shook the thoughts from her head. “Alright, see you in a few, then.”

She took off toward the field, ushering her team back out for the practice. Spitfire was standing to her side, and from the looks of it, shamelessly flirting too. Applejack’s teeth clenched. Although Rainbow was very loyal to her, and never showed any interest in Spitfire’s increasing advances, the thought of the other girl even looking at Rainbow with that lust-filled glaze was enough to send her blood pressure through the roof.

It made her almost wanted to jump out of her seat, cross that short distance between them, and tangle Rainbow in a messy kiss just to show them who was with who. But 'wanted too' and 'would' were two very separate things. Applejack wanted nothing more than to tell everyone about her love for Rainbow, but negative thoughts still held her back. She still could remember the way her grandfather would talk about the queers of the town when she was little. Her family had been raised on the beliefs that same-sex relationships were wrong, and she could not be disowned by the people she needed the most. Her family was everything to her.

Rainbow Dash, on the other hand, had no one to care about her relationships with women, because she was in fact alone. Her parents had passed away when she was little, and Fluttershy’s caring and understanding parents gave her a home until she was old enough to be on her own. She had an apartment not too far from the school in which a relative paid for, but she never saw or had them visit. Her friends were her family; Applejack was her family.

The blonde sighed and rubbed at her face with sun-kissed farmer’s hands. Thinking about their relationship always seemed to rain on her mood, because it was a lose-lose situation. She would have to be happy with what they had until she could get out on her own, or, at least, she kept telling herself that.

“Hey, I’m going to change and then we can leave,” Rainbow’s voice called up from the field, and Applejack jumped out of her thoughts enough to nodded. The runner took off across the field with the rest of her team, and Applejack searched for her phone. Upon finding it, the time indicated that she had been lost in thought for a while.

She stood and stretched her arms high above her head, listening for the satisfying crack of her spine. Then she gathered her things and started for the truck, figuring Rainbow would be meeting her there anyway. She leaned against the side of the truck, playing with the end of her blonde hair.

As if on cue, a few minutes later Rainbow Dash was pulling into the spot behind her and cut the engine of her Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14R motorcycle. The blue and black frame glistened in the sun and Applejack smiled at the thought of Rainbow probably never letting dust touch her baby. The rider pulled off her helmet and climbed off, approaching the truck. She had lost the track and field outfit, and was now back in her baby blue tank and black cut off shorts.

“Hey, you want me to follow you over?” Rainbow asked, leaning her side against the truck so that she was still facing the blonde.

“It’s up t’ you. Ah figured that we’d be together most the day so ya might as well hook it up.”

“You got it, AJ,” Rainbow stated, and moved to open the door of the truck bed. She jumped up to grab the cables at the end, secured to the truck. Everything was still as she left it last time.

Rainbow jumped back out of the bed and approached her motorcycle. She removed her helmet from the seat and rolled in closer to the truck bed. Applejack was waiting patiently for her to be needed, and when Rainbow gave the cue, they hauled the vehicle in the bed of the truck. Rainbow got back into the bed to secure her baby with the cables, and once sure it was safe, walked to the end of the truck. She did not jump, but instead just stood there.

“Well? Are you going to help me down?”

Applejack stared straight up at her, and although very aware that Rainbow did not need her help, offered anyway. She placed her hands on the other’s slim waist, and once Rainbow had her hands on her shoulders, pulled her off the truck. She slid down against the body of the farmer, smiling at her fantastic job of faking.

“Well now, that was hard, sugarcube,”Applejack purred, keeping her arms locked. Everyone had left for the day, so there was no worry in being seen.

“Thanks, AJ. I wouldn’t have made it without you,” Rainbow added dramatically. She kissed the farmer before she was released, laughing lightly as she retrieved her helmet. She set it in the back of the truck and Applejack shut the bay.

They split ways to get into the truck, Applejack taking the driver’s seat and Rainbow in the passenger. She didn’t even have enough time to start the vehicle before Rainbow was messing with the radio. Although the truck was very old, most of the components had been replaced over the years, starting with the radio system.

“Y’know this is mah truck and y’always take over the radio,” Applejack complained, but it was half-hearted.

Rainbow just laughed, “That’s because I’m awesome and you just can’t say no to me.”

Applejack didn’t reply as she pulled out of her parking space because she was fully aware that she probably couldn’t say no. She instead focused on driving and getting them safely to Rarity’s.

There was a girl leaning against the wall of the school building on the far side watching the entire interaction between the two girls. She said nothing and made no attempt to interfere with their moment. She didn’t need too because by the end of the semester, Rainbow Dash would be hers anyway. Spitfire smirked, and pushed off the wall to head home.
______ __________________ _____________________ ________________ __________

Rarity lived in one of the many fine house complexes on the business related side of town. Her mother continuously lived on and off in Paris for her fashion line, and her father was a well know business man who traveled most of the time. The house was normally in the hands of Rarity and her younger sister, Sweetie Bell. A butler was always present, and a nanny was available when Sweetie Bell was home.

Rainbow could see different vehicles lining the drive way of Rarity’s large home, so Applejack pulled into an available spot along the street after Twilight’s car. The two climbed out of the truck, and Rainbow stretched.

“All right, I guess we have to get this over with, but I am not wearing this dress if it looks like some frilly magazine ad,” Rainbow stated, glancing at Applejack to make sure she had her back. The other girl started laughing, and Rainbow knew she was on her own. “Fine, be on her side!”

“Aw. don’t be like that, Dash!”

Rainbow flipped her off and started off to the front door of the overly huge house. She allowed herself entrance. Rarity was very open about letting her friends in her home, and she hardly required them to knock when he parents were gone. She kicked off her striking red, high-top Converse at the door out of respect for the carpet, and then waited for Applejack to pull off her brown leather boots.

There was commotion coming from the living room so the two girls headed that way. Everyone was already present. Twilight and Spike were sitting on one of the high quality leather couches in the room, and of course Twilight had a book in her hand. Pinkie pie was running around with decoration, setting the theme to be a real party.

Surprisingly, Fluttershy was the only one in a dress, standing on a circle raised platform off to the side. Rarity was fixing a light pink bow on the back of her breezy yellow sun dress. She had definitely out done herself with the hand stitched pink and green flowers along the bottom.

“Looking good 'Shy,” Rainbow commented as she entered the room. She walked over to stand behind Rarity, watching the girl mess with an already prefect bow. The dress only had simple straps and Rainbow could see the wings tattooed into Fluttershy’s delicate skin. It was the same tattoo she had on her own back.

“Um… thank you Dash… Rarity really did a great job... it’s beautiful,” The shy girl patted the front of her dress down nervously.

“Thank you darling, but I just made the dress. You make it look beautiful,” Rarity finished the stitch on the bow to make it stay and set her materials down. “There it’s finished. Oh, just look at you.”

The group praised Fluttershy on her gorgeous new dress and the fearful girl just looked to the ground to hide behind her hair. She always felt self-conscious around other people and became nervous when stared at. However, Rainbow came to the rescue and ducked down into Fluttershy’s field of view with a funny face. Forgetting about her nervous feeling, she burst out laughing.

Rainbow smiled for a mere second, and then let it drop as she turned her attention to Rarity. She decided to turn all eyes on to herself, instead of making Fluttershy more unconformable.

“Alright Rarity, this dress better be the coolest thing I have ever seen, or I’m not even coming out in it,” Rainbow informed, crossing her arms over her chest.

Rarity was not surprised by Rainbows conceited attitude and nodded. “I always make your outfits fabulous. Now come with me so I can fit you into it. Normally, it would be easy, but you have such small breasts compared to the others.”

Rainbow watched Rarity walk down the hall with a look of pure shock. She looked down at her own B cupped chest, cupping herself in her hands. “Small? Are they small?” She over looked the group for answers, but did not give anyone time to answer. “These are not small, Rarity! They’re just not your damn triple D’s.”

Laughter filled the room as Rainbow took off after Rarity down the hall. The girl had entered her studio to the right, and Rainbow ran in after her. The moment she entered, she froze at the sight of the dress in front of her.

Hanging perfectly on a mannequin was a strapless, baby blue prom dress. The dress was made of some kind of synthetic, shiny material that featured ruches from the bust to the hips. Tiered ruffles of silk started at the hips and continued down to above the knee. A baby blue flower made from the same material as the dress was attached on the left side of the hip.

Rarity was standing on the other side of the room, holding a baby blue summer dress in her hand. “Oh no, I completely forgot those were in here. I didn’t want any of you seeing them until they were finished.” She crossed the room and closed the door behind Rainbow, ushering the girl further into the room. She held the dress in her hand out for Rainbow to see. “What do you think?”

The dress was made of a cotton material, making the fabric very moveable. It was a simple, strapless dress made for summer and had a complementing Rainbow bow stitched around the waist. The skirt of the dress flared out lightly, but stopped a little below mid-thigh.

“It’s nice, but could be like 20% cooler... like this dress,” Rainbow made it a point to walk over to the other dress, touching the fabric with light touches. “What are these for anyway?”

Rarity was following close behind and slapped her hands away from the creation, which was one of her prized possessions at the moment. “Don’t touch them, your hands could be dirty and ruin the material. After all, you wouldn’t want to ruin your beautiful prom dress, would you?”

“My prom dress? What are you talking about?” Rainbow asked, showing her confusion clearly on her face. “Prom isn’t for like a month, and I never said I was going.”

Rarity looked just as shocked, “Oh my! Of course you have to go. Going to prom is the biggest thing of the senior year. You could regret not going from the rest of your life.”

Rainbow raised an eyebrow. “That sounds a little dramatic, Rarity.”

“It’s not. Besides, you already agreed that you love the dress and you have to go. The prom committee is trying to throw something together to recognize Spitfire and you for bringing the track team so far this year.”

Rarity smiled, holding the summer dress back up. Rainbow realized that she was not getting out of trying the damn thing on and grabbed it out of the others hand. She stalked over to the dressing screen and slipped behind it to change.

“You will go, won’t you, Rainbow?” Rarity asked, checking her perfectly manicured nails. She had spent countless hours trying to make her dress prefect after all.

“Yeah, I guess. If it’s that important,” the runner answered, coming out from behind the screen in the summer dress. The dress fit her perfectly for once, and it actually wasn’t so bad to have on.

Rarity seemed thrilled. “Oh it looks wonderful. Finally I seem to have got your measurements down; I don’t think I have to do a thing!” The fashion designer circled the other like prey, and just when she thought she was going to be set free, found a problem with the dress. She ushered Rainbow over to the circle platform before a huge mirror, and set to work on repairing the bow in the back. “So now we just need to find you a date. There has been a rumor that Spitfire has her eyes set on you as her date this year.”

“Well I was thinking--- wait what!?” Rainbow jumped, causing Rarity’s needle to stab her in the back. She yelped and spun around, taking a step backward that lead to nowhere but the ground. She fell with a thud.

“Oh my, are you alright?” Rarity, rushed to her friend aid.

Rainbow shooed her off, “I’m fine. Really, but what is this whole thing with Spitfire? I mean, she’s a girl.” She picked herself off the ground, dusting off the brand new dress.

Rarity looked completely sincere as the next words left her mouth, “Are you not a lesbian dear? I mean I thought the way you dressed and the sports were one thing to indicate, but the rainbow hair too?”

“Don’t you think that might be a little stereotypically?” Rainbow asked, suddenly feeling a little self-conscious that her friend could finally be figuring out her secret. Well, it really wasn’t “finding out” to Rarity, because apparently she thought it all along. Out of habit of being scrutinized, she crossed her arms over her chest, and shied slightly away.

“Well perhaps, but was I wrong? I won’t judge you dear. I have nothing against lesbians, or gays for a matter of fact. My mother’s assistant is gay you know.” Rarity explained, setting a comforting hand on Rainbow’s elbow. She gave her a reassuring squeeze and a mother-like smile.

Rainbow sighed. She was going to have to stand up and tell her friends her secret someday. She couldn’t always be blaming Applejack as the reason that no one knew, and maybe in some strange way, it would show the other girl it was alright to be out of hiding. “No, you’re right. I just didn’t know how to tell you guys.”

“Oh Rainbow, I’m your friend and I will always be here for you. I don’t know how the other girls would react, but I’ll be there for you the entire way, alright?” Rarity coaxed her friend into a hug, patting her back gently. She then placed her hands on Rainbow lean shoulders and held her out at arm’s length. “Now about Spitfire. Are you planning on going with her? You two have been awfully close lately.”

Rainbow laughed, “No, we’re just friends, Rarity. I actually have my eyes set on someone else, but that’s a secret for now.”

Rarity pouted, and released the other. “Always one of mystery, Rainbow. Can’t even tell a close friend about a future prospect?” She casually walked over to the door and opened it, allowing Rainbow to present another fashion to their friends.

“Sorry Rarity, it’s just not mine to tell,” Rainbow’s smile was not as bright as it should have been and she left the room with no more than a simple shrug of her shoulders.
__________ ___________ _____________ _________________ _________________

The sun had started to set in the sky before everyone had tried on their dresses, and Rarity had opted to order food for everyone. Those who did have parents and needed to check in, called and informed that they would not be home for a while. The timed passed quickly and before any of the girls realized, it was already after eight. Deciding that the fun was over for one day, they all pitched in to help Rarity clean the house up.

After they were sure their friend was set, and thanked her many times for the new dresses and food, they all split ways. Twilight started off to her own car with Spike, while Applejack and Rainbow headed for the truck. Pinkie pie and Fluttershy had ridden their bikes over together in an effort to save the planet.

Rainbow raised her hand up in a gesture of goodbye to Rarity, who nodded in understanding. She then opened her side of the truck and climbed in next to Applejack.

“Well, ah think we all survived that, huh?” Applejack asked, starting the engine and pulling out onto the street after Twilight. She sent a look at Rainbow, noticing that she was just staring out the window blankly. “Hey, what’s the matter sugarcube? Are ya all right?”

“Yeah, I’m fine. I was just thinking about something Rarity said. It’s nothing,” Rainbow said quickly, and immediately started messing with the radio again. “Now, let’s get some awesome music playing in here.”

Applejack laughed, shaking her head. Rainbow could be so easy to please sometimes. “If that’s what’s gunnna make ya happy, go ahead.”

Slowly, Rainbow turned to look at her, a smirk stretching across her face. She leaned across the seat, pressing her face into Applejack’s personal space and stopped when she was barely touching the farmer’s ear. “I could give you an idea of what would make me happy,” she whispered, her voice lowering seductively.

Applejack clenched the steering wheel in her grip, trying to focus her attention on the road. It was becoming increasingly difficult, especially when Rainbow decided to slide her hand along her thigh.

“Are you going to take me home, AJ?” Rainbow whispered, catching the delicate skin of her ear between her teeth and tugging gently. The sensation caused Applejack tugged the wheel a little too hard to the right, but she quickly corrected the mistake. Rainbow was not fazed and laughed lightly as she returned to her seat. “I think I’m going to take that as a yes.”

“Yer always a tease y’know,” Applejack muttered, at a lose for what else to say. Of course she wanted to take Rainbow home, and staying there didn’t sound like such a bad idea, either.

Rainbow shrugged innocently and turned the music up. They were almost approaching her apartment complex, and upon reaching the turn, Applejack signaled to pull in. They had to weave around a few corners before they were close enough to park at her second story apartment, but Applejack had no problem finding an open spot.

Rainbow was the first out of the truck before the engine was cut. She was climbing into the bed area when Applejack joined her. “Hey, just leave it.”

Rainbow paused in her attempt to get the motorcycle out of the truck, “Don’t you need to get home?”

“Did ya really think I’d be leavin’ after yer colorful display of affection?” Applejack asked, raising a blonde eye brow at the other.

Rainbow shrugged, “I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I might as well take it off now so we don’t have to in the middle of the night when you do leave.” She began to tug at the restraints again, but a tan hand shot out to stop her.

“Ah never said Ah was leavin’.”

Rainbow looked up, judging her words. Applejack almost never stayed the night over at her apartment, especially when they had school. She hardly ever stayed over in general, what with being needed out at the orchards in the morning.

Applejack saw that Rainbow was faltering with her promise and added another piece of encouragement. “Ah swear, RD.”

Realizing that Applejack was probably the embodiment of honest itself, she left everything the way it was and jumped out of the truck, closing the back with a bang. She dug her keys out of her bag and motioned for Applejack to follow her. They both knew the way, but Rainbow kept slightly in the lead as she rounded the corner of the building to get to the stairs to her floor.

Rainbow was impressed with how far they had made it until she felt the familiar feeling of Applejack’s hands on her hips. She was stopped half way up the stairs and shoved into the wall on her side, Applejack pressing close. “Yer goin’ t’ kill me with all yer little displays, y’know.”

“Hm, I doubt that, but I’m sure I can blow your mind,” Rainbow bucked her hips and dodged out of Applejack’s grip. She sprinted up the stairs and turned at the top, sticking her tongue out at the other. “But first you have to catch me, AJ.”

She was gone before Applejack could even react, and although Rainbow had the advantage of being the top runner at school, Applejack had the strong muscles and determination of an apple farmer. She was after her in a matter of seconds. Lucky for her, Rainbow was trying to unlock the door to her apartment when she sprinted up and managed to throw it open a split second before she was caught.

All the items they were carrying dropped to the floor the minute they were inside, shoes kicked off haphazardly to the side, and Applejack made sure to close and lock the door. Rainbow was busy pulling her tank top off playfully, and once disentangled from the fabric, she threw it at Applejack.

“Still haven’t caught me yet,” She informed, stepping backwards toward the bedroom slowly.

Applejack took her hat off and set it on the couch by the door for safekeeping. Only then did she start on the buttons of her own shirt, watching Rainbow the entire time. “Well ah reckin’ yer right. Why don’t ya get over here instead?”

Applejack was playing dirty, and Rainbow knew it. She loved to be the one to pull the clothes off her tan body, teasing her the entire way. Yet at the same time she was very competitive. Either she had to miss her chance at amazing sex with her girlfriend, or win a competition. The first option outweighed the later, and Rainbow found herself surrendering.

“You might when this round, AJ, but I’m going to win the last,” Rainbow whispered, gripping the farmers shirt in her hands. She used the fabric as leverage to pull the other along with her into the bedroom and once the door was slammed shut, shoved Applejack against it.

She finished unfastening the rest of the buttons on the farmer’s shirt, and pulled the material off her shoulders to slide down her arms. Applejack was wearing a bra underneath, but the choice was not what she had expected.

“I didn’t think you were a black lace kind of girl, AJ,” Rainbow teased, running her hands up and down the sides of her torso softly.

Applejack’s breath hitched, and she arched slightly to the touch. She seemed to be amused by the next words that left her mouth. “Ah guess there’s a bunch ya don’t know then, like how it’s ah matchin’ set.”

Rainbow was pleased by her answer and leaned in to catch her lips in a bruising kiss. Whatever was playful about their encounter turned passionate as they fought for dominance, tongues battling in an artful dance. Applejack reached in-between their bodies to unclasp the button on Rainbow’s shorts, dragging the material down her slender hips until she was able to kick them off.

They broke apart for some much needed oxygen, but Rainbow only moved her advances to the tan skin of the neck before her. She nipped at the side of Applejacks jaw, letting her tongue slide over the wounded flesh as an apology. Her hands were already working on removing the jeans from the body before her, roughly tugging at the button and zipper. They were off in a matter of seconds, and Rainbow dragging her nails up the side of Applejack’s bare thighs.

The blonde let her head rest against the door behind her, looking down through hooded eyes at her lover. Each touch was making her squirm in desire and she noticed that her breathing was picking up speed. Rainbow was always good at pushing her buttons and making her needy for more.

Applejack took the initiative to unclasp the back of Rainbow’s colored bra, nudging the girl to help her remove it. Rainbow could sense that she was getting bothered and smirked, allowing the bra to fall to the floor.

The rainbow haired girl was then kissing her again, pressing her fully against the door. There was no question this time about who was winning the dominance as Applejack melted against her, arching her back like a bitch in heat.

Rainbow was not disappointed by her display of need and pulled her off of the door, biting her lower lip with a light growl. She reached around to unclasp the lacey bra and pulled it off without caring where it landed. Their bodies were then pressed together as Rainbow deepened the kiss, coaxing Applejack’s tongue out to play with her own.

When they broke apart the second time for the need of oxygen, Rainbow wasted no time in spinning Applejack around and tossing her onto the bed. She was on top of her in seconds, spreading the other’s firm, tan legs to make room in-between.

“Dash, please…,” Applejack begged, thrusting her hips up in a desperate attempt to receive more contact.

Rainbow did not act on first instinct for once, but instead took a moment to look over the woman before her. Tan skin was flustered, blonde hair was lying messily around her, and her chest was rising and falling in an attempt to get oxygen through her system. Rainbow couldn’t help but smile lightly at the sight. There probably was never another moment that she looked as beautiful as she did right now.

Raising a pale by comparison hand, Rainbow placed her finger tips along the right side of Applejack’s cheek and started a journey downward. Her light touch caressed the underside of the farmer’s jaw, slipped lightly between her C cup sized breasts, teased their way down over a smooth stomach, and finally slipped in-between her awaiting legs. The minute she touched the sensitive area through the black panties, Applejack’s head was thrown back in a throaty moan.

“What’s the matter AJ? Can’t handle a little foreplay?” she teased, earning a disapproving look from her lover. However, she wasn’t too bothered by the nasty look because the minute she leaned down and ran her tongue over a stiffening nipple, it was gone.

She continued to lap at the hardening bud before her, watching the way Applejack would squirm each time she even touched the area. The blonde was beginning to get desperate in her attempts; her movements were starting to get frantic.
Rainbow took pity on her and slid the fabric of her panties over so that she could slip two of her fingers inside her, thrusting them in as deep as she could get them. Applejack was wet from all the teasing and Rainbow patted herself on the back for a job well done.

Slowly she kissed her way down her chest, slipping her tongue out to lick at sensitive areas along the way. Applejack was particularly thrusting herself onto the finger by the time Rainbow made it to her navel, nipping the skin.

Rainbow pulled her fingers out, feeling the damp stickiness of excitement lingering behind. She used both of her hands to pull the black, hipster panties down past Applejack’s hips. The tattoo of three red apples on her hip bone caught her attention in the process, but she ignored it as she removed the panties completely.

Finally, Applejack was entirely naked before her. The lust she had been feeling up to this moment was nothing compared to what she felt now. She wanted nothing more than to taste the pleasure of her lover on her lips.

“Dash…,”Applejack said, suddenly feeling like a piece of meat under the stare of a hungry loin. Of course Rainbow always had playfully looks of desire when things got a little dirty, but her look was definitely sending dramatic chills up her spine.
Rainbow slowly lowered herself off of the bed, and onto her knees on the floors. Her hands tugged at Applejack’s thighs, pulling the other the short distance that she needed her to move. She spread her legs open before her, noticing the scent of arousal strong in the air.

Applejack turned a million shades of red when she was exposed, but the feeling of embarrassment was short lived when Rainbow lapped at her swollen clit. Suddenly, nothing but her desire and need mattered anyway.

Rainbow kindly replaced the two fingers that she had been missing from before, thrusting them deep inside her as her tongue moved skillfully across the hood of her clit. Applejack moaned, bucking her hips.

The muscles of her legs made strong by farming clenched under the intense pleasure, but Rainbow just doubled her efforts. She switched between licking and sucking the soft flesh before her, while also slamming her fingers in and out. Applejack responded appreciatively, thrashing her head back and forth on the bed between wanton moans. Her stomach clenched and her breathing doubled.

Rainbow could tell that she was close by her reactions. She allowed her free hand to travel back up to tweak with a perk nipple, rolling the flesh delicately between her fingers. Her tongue lapped diligently at the swollen clit of her lover, making sure to put just enough pressure on the sensitive flesh. It only took a few more thrusts of her fingers to send Applejack over the edge, screaming Rainbow’s name before she covered her mouth with her own hand.

The farmer rode out the completion of her orgasm before Rainbow decided to stop. She could feel the others legs trembling to even stay open at this point. Slowly pulled her soaking wet fingers from her girlfriend and was overcome by a sense of pride at making her body respond so well. She smeared the mess on the bottom of the bed sheets that would have to be washed, and removed any traces of evidence from her lips.

Applejack was still in the same spot, green eyes staring at the ceiling with a dazed expression. Rainbow stood up, slapping Applejack’s thigh nonchalantly to get her attention.

“Move up, AJ,” Rainbow stated, quite aware of the fact that she could not sleep at the end of the bed. She kept nudging her until she got a response and Applejack crawled lazily to the upper half of the bed. Rainbow helped her get under the fluffy, feather bed comforter.

“When did ya get so good at this?” Applejack mumbled into the pillow, peaking a green eye out to make sure Rainbow was getting into bed with her.

The other girl flicked off the bedroom light and pulled the only remaining piece of clothing from her body. She normally preferred to sleep in the nude anyway. Finally she returned to the bed, crawling in to lie on her side, facing Applejack.

“I think I’m just a natural,” Rainbow replied with confidence, but only encouraged Applejack to roll her eyes.

“Yer good sugarcube, ah’ll give ya that,” Applejack tossed the pillow in her grip behind her and wiggled her way into Rainbow’s personal space. The runner said nothing, but offered her shoulder as a make shift pillow for the blonde head. Applejack accepted, throwing a tan arm around Rainbow’s waist. The favor was returned when Rainbow’s arm wrapped around her bare shoulders. “Ah love ya, RD.”

Rainbow smiled, raising her free arm to rest behind her head. The hand behind Applejack began to gently play with the blonde’s hair, tugging the stands casually. “Ditto, AJ.”

A gentle silence settled over the room, except for the blurred noises of a party a few doors down. Rainbow starred at the ceiling above her, listening to the quiet sounds of Applejack breathing. Her mind was racing with thoughts of her conversation with Rarity, and she briefly wondered if she would be going to prom with a date or a best friend.

It was too much pressure on her chest and before her brain could stop the words spilling out of her mouth, Rainbow was calling out Applejack’s name. The other hummed against her neck in reply, squeezing the arm around her waist.
Rainbow clamped her mouth closed and prayed that Applejack might have been to asleep to really care why she called out her name to begin with. Luck was not in her favor as the blonde raised her head and emerald green eyes locked with amethyst-pink.

“What’s the matter?” She asked, giving Rainbow a look of worry.

The rainbow haired girl sighed and broke the daze to stare at the ceiling. If she was going to come clean, it might as well be now. “Rarity suggested that I go to prom with Spitfire.”

Applejack sat up, holding the blanket around her bare chest. Disbelief was brewing in her eyes. “Ah beg yer pardon, she said what?”

“She said that Spitfire has her eyes set on me for prom, and suggested that I go with her,” Rainbow repeated, allowing her daze to drop back to Applejack. She could see the hurt on the others face, and propped herself up on her elbows. “I don’t want to go with her, Applejack. I wouldn’t do that to you.”

Applejack looked away, anger starting to bleed her emotions. Spitfire could have anyone in the entire town, but of course she set her sights on Applejack’s property. Although he anger may have been on Spitfire, she turned it to Rainbow. “Please, don’t let ma be the reason t’ ruin yer night.”

“Applejack, that’s not what I meant and you know it.”

The farmer ignored her words as she threw the blankets off of her and started to crawl out of the bed. Rainbow could tell the minute she moved that she was trying to leave, and stopped her by tugging her arm. She fought back with equal strength, but the awkward position became her downfall. “Applejack! Listen to me, will ya?”

Rainbow forced the other down on the bed, leaning her upper body across to keep her there. Applejack tried to put up a fight for show, but Rainbow just had to start kissing her. Before she even knew what happened, she stopped struggling and started actively participating.

The kiss was broken when Rainbow nibbled at her bottom lip, and pulled back. She could not stop the sentence that poured out of her mouth, “Will you go to prom with me?”

Applejack turned her head to the side, avoiding eyes contact with her lover. Her eyes closed and her face was overcome with a pained expression. Rainbow suddenly felt guilty for even asking.

“Ah can’t do it, Dash. Mah family just won’t understand,” Applejack whispered low, feeling the familiar wetness behind her closed eyes. She held back the tears that wanted to spill carelessly down her cheeks.

“We don’t even have to tell them, AJ. We can make something up about meeting our dates there, or something. I just want to take you. I want to stop pretending that you don’t mean something to me,” Rainbow explained, actually letting her feelings out. She always tried to keep what she was thinking on the inside, but Applejack always brought everything going through her head.

“What about r’ friends, don’t ya think they all might care?” Applejack finally made the move to stare back at Rainbow, but the minute she made eye contact, she regretted it. The warm tears in her eyes trickled over and ran down her cheeks.
Rainbow raised a gentle hand to wipe the tears away, realizing that the wetness on her fingers was making her feel sick to her stomach. She just had to open her mouth and screw everything up. It would have been simpler to just take the entire conversation away, but her head was telling her to fight for what she wanted. The idea of hiding who she was beginning to eat at the flesh of her heart.

“I told Rarity that I was a lesbian tonight and she was completely supportive, so no, I don’t think they would even care. We’re their friends, AJ. They should accept us, and what we want in life.”

Applejack seemed surprised by the news, “Ya really told her?”

“Yeah, she was cool with it. She was trying to set me up with Spitfire, and I couldn’t even tell her about us.”

Applejack seemed to think about the words in great detail. Rainbow just gave her time to process the information and started playing with the soft, blonde hair by her ear. If nothing came out of their conversation, Rainbow was just hoped that the idea might be floating in her head until she caved.

“Ya think Pinkie and Twi would be exceptin’, too?” The farmer asked, controlling her emotions enough to meet Rainbow’s stare. Rainbow reassured her with a light peck on her lips.

“Yeah, AJ, I do. Pinkie accepts everything coz she’s got a screw loose sometimes, and Twilight would try to reason it out. They’re our friends.”

Applejack raised a tan hand and tangled it in Rainbow’s colored hair, tugging her down for another chaste kiss. Her next words were whispered against Rainbow’s lips, “Ah trust ya Dash, more than anyone, y’know.”

Rainbow smiled against her lips, “I know, and I have always been loyal to you. I just think it’s time you start being honest with everyone else, including yourself.”

Applejack nodded in agreement. “Alright, RD. Ah’ll go to prom with ya.”

Rainbow let her smile turn into a smirk, “And here I thought you were actually going to turn down someone as awesome as I am. I mean dating the captain of the track team; you’re doing pretty good, AJ.”

Applejack laughed heartily, and pushed Rainbow off of her. She wasted no time in switching their positions, straddling the others waist. “Don’t go runin’ the moment with all yer big talk, missy.”

Rainbow propped herself on her elbows, shaking a few colorful pieces of hair from her face unsuccessfully. Applejack watched her and assisted on brushing a strand out of her beautiful eyes. She smiled, shaking her head in a gentle laugh. Rainbow just gave her a confused look.

“Nothin’, ah was just thinkin’,” Applejack explained.

Rainbow feigned shock, “I must be slacking. You shouldn’t have time for that. Round two?”

She wiggled her eyebrows sexually, and Applejack shrugged her shoulders innocently. It was going to be quite some time before either of them were ready to leave the bedroom.
