A short little romance about Rarity and Fluttershy's trip to a hot spring in lieu of their weekly spa date. Will Fluttershy be able to overcome the voice inside her head telling her she's not good enough?

When Sweetie Belle is out of town, the remaining two Crusaders are left with nothing to do besides hanging out with their favourite adult ponies. Unfortunately, all Rainbow and Applejack want is to be alone together.
They're not above being manipulative to get what they want, however, and they figure that getting the young pair to engage in a few friendly competitions will be good for them, too.

My entry for the third AppleDash group competition. As such, it will contain Appledash. You have been warned.

EDIT: now with less Ah-ing. Fare thee well, butchered southern accent. You shall be missed.

Rainbow Dash has always had her head in the clouds, physically, but is always brought back to Equestria by the no nonsense common sense attitude of her best friend, Applejack. This story is an AppleDash fic, and takes place after the Season 2 finale of MLP:FiM.

This is my first fanfic ever, so feedback is most welcome!
