A Dash of Twilight

by 21latenighter


A new couple

Back at the library, Rarity and Applejack were beginning to worry, as it had been over an hour and they hadn't heard from neither Twilight or Rainbow.

Applejack trotted over to the front door and looked out the window, seeing neither coming, decided to pursue something of her own.

"Hey Rarity.. could ah talk to you for a minute?" She asked, a bit timid.

"Why of course Darling, what's on your mind dear?" Rarity asked as she turned away from assisting Spike change the curtains in the library.

AJ gulped down a knot in her throat and spoke from her rough heart.

"With all this stuff goin on with Rainbow, ah thought ah might as well come clean about something.."

"Yes darling.." Rarity asked, fluttering her eyes at the orange farm pony.

"Ah... ah k-kinda h-had a.... well a.. a c-crush on ya..." she said, shuttering.

"Finally dear! I was beginning to think that I was going to have to take the first step.." she said without any surprise in her voice.

"Ya... know? But.. how? How long?" AJ asked, flabbergasted.

"Oh my, I've known for a while now, you were just so adorable with you always bringing me fabric every week.. and all the looks you gave me and my flank..." Rarity said as she smiled.

Just then, the front door of the library door opened to reveal the Purple Alicorn.

"Twilight!?" Rarity half said, half yelled as she turned to face the new princess, "and where is Rainbow Dash!?!"

"Right here!!" Dash said as she landed beside Twilight and placed a wing around her, in which Twilight leaned into Rainbow's side.

"We talked things out Rarity, everything is definitely 20% cooler!" Rainbow said as she trotted into the library, followed by Twilight.

"So... what did we walk in on?" She asked as she eyed AJ suspiciously.

"Ah... ah was just... oh consarnit!!!" Applejack said as she took Rarity in her hooves and kissed the mare quickly.

Though it was no kiss for the ages, the unicorn still felt her heart skip a beat.

"Oh... uhh.. come on Twi... let's get outta here," Rainbow said gingerly as she took Twilight's hoof and left the library to spread the word to the rest of her friends that she had finally got the guts to ask Twilight.... and she said yes!

The end...
