Dash cuddled her book. Drooling all over it. She smiled as she dreamt. ~~~ "Dash come on!" Soarin shouted to Dash as he ran to her. "You have to see this!" He ran up to her and panted for a few seconds. "What?" Dash asked curiously. She pulled a funny look at Soarin. He put his arm on her back and lifted himself up. "Come... On... Dash..." Soarin whispered through breaths. "Cloud... Is, Asking.... Thunderlane out." Dash looked at him shocked. She knew that Could liked Thunder, but she never expected her to ever ask him out! She was a timid, shy girl. Much like Fluttershy. She was one of Fluttershy's best friends. Along with Dash. "Nah. This must be fake." Dash rubbed it off like it was nothing. "She would never do that." Soarin looked at her with a flat expression. "It's true. Now come." He glabbed Dashes hand and ran. A small blush forming on her face. As they ran Soarin tripped over a small rock on the ground... Or something. Dash didn't have enough time to see what it was as a couple of seconds later, she was on top on Soarin. Soarin was laying on his stomach and Dash was on her stomach.... On him... Oh, no. No, no no no no no no. Dash thought to herself as she opened her eyes. Her blush deepened. She quickly rolled over to her side. Sliding off Soarin. Wiping her hair over her face, so Soarin could hopefully not she she was a tomato. "Argghhh..." Soarin grumbled. "Dash.... I think I am dead." Soarin laughed and got up onto his feet. Dash giggled as she saw how dirty he was. "Miss is going to kill you if you dont wash yourself." Dash commented on his look. Soarin smirked. "Well.... Maybe she will be mad with you too!" Soarin said, enthusiasm on his face. "Wha-" A pile of dirt was through into her face. "Hey! Oh! Your going to pay." Dash and Soarin smirked at each other. They through dirt at each other for about an hour before being called in and having a detention. "Totally worth it." Soarin whispered to her in the detention. "Yeah." ~~~ It was a long day at school. Work, boredom, friends, drama. Soarin invited Dash to play Football with him. She accepted. Obviously. She had just ended an hour and something of Football and they were tired. They sat on a wall with Soarin on his phone, telling jokes. Like he always did. "Ok. Ok!" Soarin laughed. Dash held her stomach, she had been crying of laughter of how funny Soarin was. His jokes always lifted the mood. Not like there was any, though. "Ok, so.... Ummm... OH! Some people say love is the key to happiness but it’s a lie. It’s pie." Soarin laughed his head off as Dash mumbled to herself. "Oh, thats so not true." Dash rolled her eyes. "What?" Soarin said as tears of happiness rolled down his eyes. "I have another one!" "Ok. What is it?" Dash said, curiously. "Ok, so... Dirty joke this time." Dash blushed a little. "Ok." "So... My maths teacher asked me a question today at school, “What comes after 69?” Apparently ‘ mouthwash ‘ isn’t the correct answer." Soarin laughed the last few words out. Dash felt like she was going to die if she laughed any more. "O-Oh! Soar! Haahahaha!" Dash laughed. After calming down a bit, she said. "You should totally tell these jokes on your first date after playing a good game! This is so awesome and funny. Anyone could fall for you!" Dash exclaimed. "Ha... Yeah!" Soarin replied. Yea-Oh wait.... No. No. No, That sound so wrong. I didn't mean for that to come out like that. What is he thinks I was coming onto him... On no! Dash thought to herself nervously. Dash sat there awkwardly in silence, an enormous blush on her face. "Well... I have to.... Having an over protective mum is a hard life." Dash finally broke the silence. "Oh... Okay..." Dash walked off a bit before. "Wait Dash!" "Yeah, Soar?" "Again, tomorrow?" Dash smiled happily. Her heart flying into her eyes. "Of course!" Dash quickly became 'cool' again. "I mean... Yeah, sure." They both walked off. One of them think about what to wear for tomorrow. ~~~ "Dash!" A voice said, the arms of the voice pushed Dash upwards. "Dash! Wake up. Dinners ready." It was her mum. "Argghh..." Dash grumbled. "I'm coming..." ~~~ After dinner Dash was back on her bed. Thinking about how she wanted to just run to Soarin. Hug him. Cuddle him. Kiss him. Wait! No! Dash didn't try to think about him after that thought popped into her head. But he always slid into her head. She wanted him. She needed him. It was if when he left a part of her went with him as well. She needed him back. But she couldn't have him. Thinking about never seeing him again hurt her. A lot. She loved him. Soarin. Loved Soarin. She. Her feet held into her head by her hand. Crying slowly. She would never see him again. Never. Ever? "I need you Soarin." She cried slowly, trying to make her mum not hear. "I l-lo..... I love you." ~~~ "Dash... I miss ya..."
