Rainbow Dash was trying to get Applejack to go to a new strip club that opened up outside of ponyville. “Aww...Come on AJ! Just this once!” Rainbow Dash begged. She tried to give Applejack her best ‘kicked-puppy-face’ and it managed to work. “Fine.” Applejack looked at the pegasus dead in the eyes. “Just. This. Once. But don’t uh...Don't tell anyone that went with ya, okay?” “Yeah sure whatever!” She grabbed Applejack without any warning and flew off towards the club. “Let's go!” The bright lights and loud music hit the orange earth pony like a brick. She went to pull her hat over her ears when Rainbow went to yell in them. Applejack could barely make out what her friend said, but she saw her hoof pointing at a stage so she figured that Rainbow Dash would be over there. Applejack walked into a crowd of ponies, mostly male, screaming and yelling at the mare on stage. Applejack turned to see who they were hollering at and her jaw dropped. She was a white unicorn with a long, wavy purple mane. She had the bluest eyes Applejack had ever seen, her cutie mark was three sky blue diamonds. The mares body was slender and fit. The dancer looked at Applejack, or at least so hoped it was her, and continued to dance while locking eyes with hers. When the music finished and the crowd walked away, the unicorn gestured for Applejack to go near a door that was covered with a curtain. She trotted over to the door when the dancer came and lightly pushed her in. “I saw the way you were watching me darling,” She seemed to accent. “you liked what you saw, yes?” She waved her flank in front of Applejacks face, flicking her tail at her chin. The unicorn pushed Applejack into a chair and started to sit on her lap. A dark red stallion peeked into the room. He was a unicorn, bald but he had what looked like a goatee. His bright orange eyes stared at the dancer. “Rarity!” His deep voice roared. “How many times do I have to tell you to not touch the customers!” “Ugh…” The dancer, whose name is Rarity, rolled her eyes and climbed off Applejack. The stallion left the two mares alone again. “Listen, I probably shouldn’t do this but I don’t care.” The unicorn made a piece of paper and a pen appear and wrote something on it then handed it to Applejack. It was her number. “Call me sometime.” Rarity walked away and left Applejack in a state of shock. She never knew she would ever come here, meet and actually like another mare, or get that mare’s number. “Applejack!” A familiar voice yelled into the room. It was Rainbow Dash. “I think I’m ready to go. It’s late and some of the guys here are starting to think I work here.” She pulled the earth pony out of the club. Applejack was as stiff as a statue the entire time. “”Are you okay AJ?” The pegasus asked as they exited the strip club. “I-I...Uh…” Applejack stuttered, looking at the piece of paper with the strippers number written neatly on it. “Come on, spit it out.” Rainbow grew impatient as the sky got even darker. “I...I got that unicorns number.” Applejack and Dash stared at each other. “I don’t know how I did it. She went too give me a lap dance or something but just gave me her number!” Applejack looked as if she was about to have a panic attack.” Rainbow Dash moved Applejack to lay on her back. “How about we go back home...I think you need some rest.” > Two different worlds > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Applejack sat by her phone the next day, wondering if she should call the mare from last night or not. After sitting and staring at the strippers number, she decided to call. As the ringing tone sounded in Applejack’s ear, her heart beat faster every second that passed. “Hello?” The familiar voice said on the other end. Rarity did pick up. “U-Um...Howdy.” Applejack tried her best to keep calm, but for some reason, hearing the other’s voice was driving her crazy. “It’s me...the pony from last night?” “I see a lot of ponies during the day and night, darling. You need to explain a little bit-” “The orange earth pony!” Applejack said a little louder than she wanted to. “From the club last night! That you gave your number to....” Applejack hoped that Rarity remembered who she was. “Oh yes! I remember you!” Her voice rang in the earth pony’s ear. Rarity’s voice sounded happy that she called. “So you decided to call I see. How are you?” “I’m mighty fine sugarcube. I was wondering if…” She needed a reason to call her. ‘I can’t just say that I wanted to hear her voice again, that might turn her away!’ “I was wondering if you would like to get together sometime?” “That sounds fabulous darling. I’m free today in the afternoon if that’s okay with you...Um...What’s your name?” “Applejack, and yep I’m free this afternoon. Can you meet up at the center of Ponyville?” “Yes I can darling!” Rarity’s voice rang. “I’ll see you then!” Witn that, the white unicorn hung up. ‘Oh god...’ Applejack thought. ‘What should I wear?’ She ran to her room, slamming the door behind her. ‘Am I really worrying about what i should wear? Heck, she was all over me when all I wore was mah hat.’ She looked in the mirror, shrugged and walked towards town. xxxxxxxxx Rarity sat down on the steps to Central Hall, quite nervous about meeting the mare she only met at a strip club. ‘I don’t even know why I gave my number to her! I was only trying to do my job but...something came over me.’ Before Rarity could get lost in her thoughts, she saw the earth pony walking towards her. Her orange coat was shining in the sunlight, her eyes were a beautiful shade of green that Rarity could look at for days. Her mane was blond, a little scruffy with a brown....’What is THAT?!’ “Hiya Rarity!” Applejack trotted up to the unicorn. The white mare had the most disgusted look on her face as Applejack approached her. “Is somethin’ wrong?” Rarity began to pull Applejack by the hoof. “Ahh! Rarity! What are ya doing?” “I’m doing you a favor darling.” Rarity pulled Applejack into her boutique. Shutting the door, a blue aura surrounded the top of Applejacks head. Her hat was then thrown across the room. “What’d ya do that f-” Applejack couldn’t finish her sentence as Rarity came up to her, stroking her cheek, looking at where the hat used to sit. “You look so much better darling. What ever made you wear that...that THING?!” She said dramatically. “It’s my hat.” Applejack said in an annoyed tone. Her eye twitched. “I always wear my hat.” Rarity stepped back and looked at Applejack. “Well I do say that you look much better without it.” Applejack blushed, and started to blush harder as she noticed Rarity looking up down her body, checking her out. Rarity took a step forward, seductively looking at the orange mare. She ran the tip of her hoof up and down her neck, leaning close to her ear. “You look much better.” Her tongue wiped the outer shell of Applejacks ear. Applejack shivered. ‘What should I do? Should I push her away?’ Rarity trailed kisses down her neck. ‘I...I don’t want to push her away...But i have to before it goes too far.’ Rarity started to play with her hair when Applejack pushed her away. “Did I do something wrong darling?” Rarity looked at her with a confused look. “Umm, well….I just don't think I’m ready for that yet sugarcube.” She rubbed the back of her neck. “I want to get to know you before we do any of...that yet.” “Oh. I completely understand.” Rarity shyly looked down, slightly blushing. “Sorry about that dear.” Applejack hugged her. “It’s fine.” She let go and looked into the unicorn’s sapphire eyes. “We can start out as friends. But one question,” She trotted over to pick up her hat and looked back Rarity. “Could you tell me where I am!” Rarity giggled. “You’re in my home and workplace.” “But you’re a stripper…” Applejack looked around and saw all the dresses. ‘How did i not notice these before?’ “Well yes I am darling, but I also make dresses. Where do you think these cutie mark came from?” Applejack looked at the three diamonds. It doesn’t look like a cutie mark somepony who was just a stripper would have. “But I brought you here cause I honestly thought you were joking when you showed up in just that that hat. I wanted to make you a dress!” Rarity said excitingly. “I don’t normally wear dresses, I work on an apple farm!” Rarity, once again, looked at Applejack with a disgusted look. “A farm?! You get all dirty and sweaty!” Rarity was hopping on her hooves as if the floor was on fire. “How do you stand that?!” ‘Yep. We are totally different.’ > Art of the Dress > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “She seemed to take a liking to you.” Applejack walked with Rainbow Dash. “I mean she climbed right onto your lap.” “Y-you saw that?!” Applejack blushed heavily. Rainbow laughed at the blush Applejack wore. “I thought she said the room was private…” She murmured. “What was that? Ah, whatever...Yeah I saw how she sat on your lap, how that one guy yelled at her, and she gave you her number! By the way, did you ever called her?” Rainbow asked her. ‘Should I tell her? If I do, she might pick on me but if I don’t, she’ll pick on me...’ “Yep, I gave her a call yesterday mornin’.“ The earth pony said with confidence, awaiting anything her flying friend would say. “In the morning? You were that eager to hang out with the stripper again huh?” Applejack tugged on the tail of Rainbow Dash, bring her to the ground but not stopping her laughter. “She’s a dressmaker.” Applejack walked next to Rainbow. “For a stripper, she seems like a very classy mare sugarcube.” “So she makes clothes during the day, but takes them off by night?” Rainbow Dash chuckled at the thought. “But If she’s classy, how come likes you if you're the exact opposite?” She stood up, wiping off the dust and dirt. “I don’t know myself sugarcube. She wanted to make me a dress and then-” Applejack was interrupted by the pegasus. “She wanted to make you a DRESS?!” Rainbow exclaimed. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. “That’s why she dragged me to her house. She thought I was wearing my hat as a joke-” Once again, Rainbow interrupted her. “But you always wear your hat…” Rainbow said. “I told her that sugarcube. But after she took of my hat she started kissing me.” She blushed slightly at the memory. “I pushed away and told her that we need to start as friends.” Applejack sat a bench that was near them. “You pushed her away?!” Rainbow flew in front of her friends face. “Yes I did.” Applejack pushed Dash away from her. “As I said sugarcube, I wanted to start off as friends.” “Okay that’s understandable,” Dash sat next to Applejack. “Where does she live?” “That big boutique that we walk by when-” She stopped she heard the other snickering. “What do you plan on doin’ sugarcube?” Rainbow Dash swooped Applejack up in her arms and flew her to the boutique. She knocked on the door. “Hello?” Rarity answered, eyes widening when she saw the earth pony. “Ho-how can I help you?” “We would like to get a dress made....For her.” Rainbow Dash pointed at Applejack. Applejack rubbed at the back of her neck, she couldn’t form words to help her out of this. “I would LOVE to make a dress for her!” The unicorn pulled Applejack into the building, Rainbow following not the far behind, laughing. Rarity had Applejack stand on a table-like stand. Her hat was set down on the stand. Rarity was measuring her body while Rainbow Dash looked like she was “trying her hardest” not to laugh. After Rarity did all her measurements, Dash was finally bored. “Okay darling, you can step out now.” Rarity shouted. Applejack stood behind a curtain wearing the dress. Her orange hoof poked out, then disappeared back behind the curtain. “Don’t be afraid. I’m sure you look fabulous!” “UGGGGHHHH!” Dash groaned. “Just show us the stupid dress already!” This outburst earned her a quick hit from Rarity, whispering “It’s not stupid!” at her. Applejack then stepped out and both jaws dropped. She was wearing green boots that had a red trim at the top and a yellow streak that lead an apple design. Around her neck was a green collar with an apple connecting them together. Two leather strings hung from the apple. A leather saddle sat on her back with green silk coming from it, coming off the silk were leather tassels. “Oh my gosh...A-Applejack.” Rainbow stuttered. “Y-You look-” “Absolutely STUNNING!” Rarity chimed. “I just wish I had my hat…” Applejack said under her breath. Hoping nopony would hear, but one did. “Now why would you want your old hat to wear with your new dress?” Rarity climbed on stage and stood next to the earth pony. Examining how it hugged her muscular body shape. “I always wear my hat Rarity, I already told you this!” Looking annoyed and slightly irritated, she looked at the unicorn in the eyes. ‘Wow, her eyes are really...somethin’. They’re just so blue.” “Applejack?” ‘It’s like an ocean...’ “Applejack?” ‘I could look at them all day...’ “APPLEJACK!” Rarity’s voice brought Applejack out of her thoughts. “It’s rude to stare, but what were you staring at darling?” “Oh, well um…” Applejack couldn’t say that she was staring at her. “Well, while you were lost in your thoughts, Pinkie came by and invited us to a party. You know Pinkie right darling? Oh who am I kidding, everypony knows Pinkie.” The white pony walked away to organize the shelf. “It’s tonight if you want to go darling. Your friend was invited and she left with her to help put the party together. She said everypony is coming.” “Sounds like fun, sugarcube.”
