There was a moment of silence. Rainbow Dash didn't know what to say. Pinkie Pie liked her. Did Rainbow feel the same the way. She didn't know.

"Dashie", Pinkie Pie said. "Do you love me back...?"

Another eerie silence filled the room. Rainbow Dash really didn't know what to say. She looked into Pinkie Pie's eyes. She had a feeling. Everything was warm and it tickled. She didn't quite understand what it meant, though.

"I don't know, Pinkie", Rainbow said sadly. "I want to say yes, but I really don't know".

Pinkie face turned sad. Her hair deflated. She got out of her seat and walked away.

"Wait! Pinkie!", Rainbow Dash said. "I didn't mean to-"

"It's okay, Dashie", Pinkie said. "I understand".

"I'm sorry..." Rainbow Dash walked away, still sad that Pinkie was sad. She decided to visit Scootaloo.

****************

There was a buzz, and the door opened. 

"Can I see Scootaloo?", Rainbow asked the blue mare at the front desk.

"Sure, whatever", she said in a slightly southern accent. She called for Scootaloo and moments later, Scootaloo was in the lobby.

"Hi Rainbow Dash!", Scootaloo said happily, running up to hug Rainbow. "I've been practicing my flying. Look!"

Scootaloo flapped her wings and was in the air much faster than before. Scootaloo fell, noticing that Rainbow Dash was sad.

"Are you okay?', Scootaloo asked.

Rainbow Dash took a minute to explain everything about Pinkie's crush. 

"But, why does she like a mare?", Scootaloo asked. "Shouldn't she love a stallion?"

"I'd rather not explain it. At least not here".

The the two flew to the meadow where Scootaloo learned to fly. 

*******************

"And that's what we call lesbians", Rainbow said. The filly Scootaloo was cringing, wishing she never asked why Pinkie liked a mare. She shook it off, though.

"Well", Scootaloo said. "Do you like her back?"

"I don't know. She's funny, and kind, and totally awesome. Why shouldn't I like her?"

Scootaloo thought for a moment.

"You do".

"What?"

"Stop denying it. You know you love her".

"I guess, I... I do. I really do!"

Rainbow took Scootaloo backed to the orphanage and went strait to Sugarcube Corner. She crashed through Pinkie's bedroom window and tackled her.

"I love you, Pinkie!", she screamed. "I really do love you!"

Pinkie smiled and hugged Rainbow. "I really love you, too", she whispered into Dash's ear.
