Alternatively titled: "Uneasy Hearts Weigh the Most"

It’s been two weeks, and Rainbow Dash couldn't be happier that she was dating Ponyville’s most dependable pony, Applejack. Applejack, while unsure of how it would turn out at first, finally starts feeling comfortable enough about their relationship and tells Dash that they can finally tell their friends about it.

As she’s planning how to best go about telling their friends, Ponyville is met with wonderful news: Applejack’s mother, Apple Butter, is going to be visiting Ponyville, making it the first time in ten years that either of Applejack’s parents have visited! With the entire town planning a welcome party, the two mares may find it hard to tell their friends about their relationship, and they’ll come to realize why Applejack’s mother might make it even harder.

The Canterlot Three Games is an event between the three original Equestrian cities of Canterlot, Manehattan, and Cloudsdale. A long time ago, two ponies entered, and won a series of sporting events.

Applejack wants to follow in the footsteps of her parents and compete. Coached by a grumpy games inspector and shadowed by the Wonderbolts newest member, she begins a series of unorthodox training methods to get her ready to measure up to some of Equestria's most intimidating athletes.

Teen for some somewhat more mature-ish concepts. Oh, and cheers to pre-readers Tchernobog and The Yaoi Mistress!

Rainbow Dash loves Applejack. She loves her a lot. Like a lot a lot.

So when Applejack suggests that maybe they should get each other Hearth's Warming presents, Rainbow jumps at the idea. After all, all she needs to do is find the perfect gift and show Applejack just how much she loves her.

Shouldn't be too hard, right? It's Rainbow Dash we're talking about here. She'll probably find it in like two minutes, tops.

...

R-right?

Sex tag is there because I just couldn't stop myself from making top and butch jokes.

Applejack has always had a secret dream, one that some ponies would find strange for the tomboyish farmer. She's always wanted somepony to treat her to a special romantic night, while being treated like a real lady. Turns out all she had to do was have a certain rainbow-maned pegasus catch her in a dress. Such an awkward moment will lead them to a night neither will ever forget.

Rainbow Dash and Applejack had been together for many years now. First as rivals, then best friends, and now marefriends. Neither can deny that the years they have been together have been the best in their lives. Now Applejack wants to make it permanent. After months of planning it out, Applejack finally has asked Rainbow Dash for her hoof in marriage.

She never expected Dash to say "I can't".
