    MY SILENT PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED! :pinkiehappy:

    Oh yeah, slight misspelling.

    A minuet passed in silence as both of them thought about what had just been said by Soarin'.

    Dash chocked on her drink at the mention of a coltfriend.

    Would you believe that misspelling that word is a more common error than using the wrong "to"?

    Nitpicking aside, good job on another fantastic chapter.  I really like where you're going with this.  Soarin x AJ might be my favorite pairing for him, but Fluttershy pulls a lose second.  And with how you've built his character in this story their date promises to be wonderfully awkward.

    Fluttershy and Soarin'? Ok not a paring I would have thought of since I tend to concentrate on Soarin' being Twilight or Applejack, but I think you are making it work. Background paring of CheeriMac, nice don't see that too often.

    Great update, but I found some typos....

    "Soarin' moved to the side of the sofa closer to her. This action only made the shy mare hide behind her mane once more. He paused and the room went silent for the third time. A question came to his mind after a few seconds that he knew he probably shouldn't ask but couldn't stop himself from doing so.

    "If you knew I was a Wonderbolt then why did need to ask my name?"

    As she talked they had gone around and fed the rest of the animals, giving each type of animal their own feed and helping the injured or sick ones by feeding them. He was currently holding a small hedgehog in in his and was holding a small bottle so it could drink.

    Umm, you wouldn't mind fixing them.... they just sound awkward.

    I'd also like to point out that you are missing a ton of commas.

    Also, I doubt Flushy would kiss somepony after only a few hours with them, even with things going well. That's just my conjecture, though.

    2) Such a cute story.

    3) I love the accuracy of your depiction of the National Enquirer

    Suggestions

    1)

    notoriously famous

    This should be "infamous"

    2) The sentence structure makes it hard to understand your points sometimes.

    3) Just Soarin, no apostrophe needed.

    Overall, I love this so far!!!!!! Keep it up :pinkiehappy:

I'm not trying to sound rude or anything by this I just wanted to point that out. I've seen people use one spelling and others use the other spelling. Both are fine to me so long as I stay consistent.

    I like the development you put into this chapter.  Things are going to get interesting from here on out, and I look forward to every minute of it.  Just don't fall into the cliche where everything goes to hell, they break up over a misunderstanding, and then one of them (probably Soarin') has to go and make a big, dramatic public apology to get their "happily ever after".  I hate that cliche...

    On a side note, there were several spelling errors and one or two grammatical errors I noticed in the latter half of the chapter (starting from when Soarin' leaves his house to get the bagels).  I didn't reread the first half that got accidentally posted earlier this morning to see f the few I saw up there were fixed, so they may or may not still be there.

    I really enjoy this story and can't wait for the next update! Thank you for not immediately going 'all the way' with Soarin' and Flutters, it shows a maturity evident in very few fanfics I've read. I really empathize with Soarin' as I'm a shy guy that hates being in the spotlight (except when performing of course). I think you described perfectly the way the masses fade out of existence during a performance; I've felt it many times performing with my instrument. Poor Dash! My friend recently told me he's bi, so I understand what she's going through. Great great fic, keep up the stellar work!
