"My mare, my mare
Don't you lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night?
In the pines, in the pines,
Where the sun doesn't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through..."

Fluttershy goes to visit Rainbow Dash.

Inspired by the Lead Belly song of the same name.

All I know is nature.

Hearth's Warming Eve is always a time to celebrate with friends and have a big party. But when Pinkie isn't able to, Twilight decides to take it under her hooves. But what if Pinkie Pie decides to take it up a notch? And that's where they are now, with one grinning pink earth pony and two very uncomfortable Pegasi. What has Pinkie done this time? And what does Vinyl Scratch have to do with all of this? (Light hearted Flutterdash, one-shot. Set as a sort of sequel to "Missing Piece")

Rainbow Dash has been married to Fluttershy for a while. They have gotten to know each other better and have been enjoying their life.

However, on her one day off, Rainbow Dash is coerced to spend her time with Fluttershy doing mundane things. Which brings the Rainbow Dash to wonder just why did she marry Fluttershy?

Winter, for some ponies a fun time of the year where they get to play in the snow and skate on the ice. For some ponies, winter is but a bothersome time of year when the snow gets in their way and they try to keep warm each day. For Fluttershy, it is a lonely time of year, a time where she feels as empty as her house.

Each winter day, each and every year when the winter season comes, Fluttershy awakens to loneliness. This year though, things are slightly different. This year, she has somepony beside her to listen to her pains and try to fill the void of loneliness.

If the cover-art and the name of the author for this story wasn't an obvious enough hint, then I shall forewarn you that this story contains FlutterDash shipping.

Fluttershy's birthday is right around the corner, and Rainbow Dash wants to get her something extra-special, something to show her what a great friend she thinks she is...but has no idea what that something is. Can her friends give her any helpful insight, or will she be led back to square 1?...

Probably not my best, but an idea that's been sitting on my head for a while, just meant to be a harmless one-shot, close enough to the holiday season. =)

*Update 7/25: After reading through comments, made a few changes to help the flow and mood of the story. Hope you still enjoy!

It the days of the Flight Academy for Rainbow Dash; she's the most unsuccessful prodigy the school has known. She has many friends, has one close friend, and hasn't met her closest friend. A certain series of events more or less changes Rainbow Dash's life.

Rainbow Dash loves flying more than anything else in Equestria. At least that is what her friends think. In truth she loves Fluttershy more than anything and would even trade her wings for a chance to snuggle with the mare of her dreams... but of course that would never happen, after all...cool ponies didn't cuddle. Cuddling was for mushy romance novels and a criminally adorable yellow Pegasus. A Pegasus who had a long mane and tail and smelled like wild flowers. An aromatically inciting mare who should be arrested immediately if she ever wore those pink socks that matched her mane again. Then if Rainbow got into the Wonderbolts she could be the arresting officer and use all the latest interrogation snuggles and tickling implements to get Fluttershy to confess to her crimes of being twenty percent cuter than Equestrian law would allow... but no... Cool ponies didn't love cute things... cool ponies didn't like hugging shy mares in pink socks... and most of all, cool ponies didn't cuddle...

Well here it is everyone! I had this whole description written out, but when I woke up this morning, it was gone. So I can't remember everything so I'll just tell y'all about the cover art.

The Flutterdash was HERE
The background was HERE

Since I can't think of anything else, I'll see you at the next chapter.

I'm not you. Your Rainbow, and I'm Fluttershy, were quite the opposite. But through the years I wonder why I still love you still even though you were arrogant and selfish.

I stood with you because I love you, and I will stand with you in your dying moments.
