Companion story to Souldin's Open To Interpretation

Rarity, Twilight and Applejack discuss one certain moment during the fight scene against the Changelings between Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy, in wonder of what REALLY happened. But what of Pinkie's mention of the two Pegasi snuggling together, nibbling each other's ears, and getting all lovey-dovey?

Here's what was going on all along with Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy!

Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash have always been great friends, looking out for each other and sticking together like two good Pegasus pals would. But all it took was one faithful night, one confession of love, to send their long-term friendship towards a new and deeper level. Now having to deal with whether they should be together, whether they even love each other, and how their friends and others may react, they must face the challenges this possibly new-found love could bring. But the question is, will they survive, and will close friendship or romance prevail over all else in the end?

The mane six are about to find out hard, and how wonderful, high school can be when love is in the air. There will be crushes, heartbreak, shipping and a whole lot of outright strangeness.

So yea, another story set in a high school. I don't know why but I just really love this setting. The only ship that I will reveal at this point in time is Flutterdash. As always, if you ever notice any spelling or grammar mistakes please tell me.

We all know Rainbow Dash had a terrible time watching the Great Butterfly Migration with her oldest friend.

It's the day of the next butterfly migration and the last thing Rainbow wants to do is watch a bunch of butterflies for a second time.

I don't understand it, I don't know what to do. Anytime I try to make sense of this, I can never find an answer. All I know for sure is that I love Fluttershy more than anything.

First person with Rainbow Dash as she ponders elements of her past and present within her dilemma of trying to understand why she loves Fluttershy.

Rainbow Dash is not a cheater. She's worked hard in life to get to where she is now, and she never, ever took the easy way out.

Why does it hurt so much?
