"Thank you oh so much for doing this Rainbow Dash, I know it's a big responsibility and it means so much to me," Fluttershy said as she and her friend, Rainbow Dash, walked up to her cottage.
"I may not have your cutie mark anymore but don't worry Shy, I got this!" Rainbow says confidently. Fluttershy fiddled with the lock on the door for a moment before unlocking it and letting it swing open.
"Are you sure Rainbow? I don't want to over work you...," Fluttershy says, walking in Rainbow behind her. As all of the pink maned ponies's animals rushed to her, Rainbow gulped.
"Y-Yeah! I got it all under control. Just grab your stuff and get on your way!" Rainbow said as she began to push her friend back out the door. Fluttershy rushed her words as she tried to explain what to do to take care of the animals and to warn Rainbow of a few things. Only to have the door slammed in her face, suitcase at her side thanks to Dash's speed abilities. Fluttershy sighs and heads away. She'd put Rainbow in charge of her cottage and animals while she was going away on a trip to see the Breezies. Before being slammed out of her home, she'd tried to warn her friend that Shy's brother, Zephyr was in town and would being staying with her. But it was Rainbow's fault for not listening.
Back in the cottage, Rainbow settles down onto the couch. She flips open her newest Daring Do book and starts to read. Not even ten minutes into her reading session, she is interrupted by a loud knock at the door. Perking her ears up, Rainbow gets up and walks to the door. Opening the door, she frowns.
"Well hia there Dashie, is my sis off on her trip already~?!" Zephyr asks as he invites himself into his big sister's cottage. Rainbow huffs.
"What are you doing here Zephyr??" she asks in an already annoyed tone. He chuckles and sets his bag on the couch, squashing the neatly placed book. Rainbow frowns and snatches the book away and sets it aside.
"Now now Dashie, don't act like that~! Surely my big sis told you I was coming?" Zephyr purrs. Rainbow shakes her head.
"No no she didn't. I wouldn't have agreed to this if I would have known you'd be here..," Rainbow snaps. Zephyr grins and rolls his eyes.
"You and I both know that's a lie Dashie~ You love me and you know it. Your just in denial~," he says in a flirty tone. "I bet you'd go on a date with me if I asked~." It only pissed the rainbow maned mare off more.
"Stop calling me that you asshole! And no, I don't love you! Your the one in denial. An asshole in denial," Rainbow huffs and narrows her eyes. He laughs and messes up her mane.
"Psht. Yeah right. Your just covering it up~," he says. She takes a deep breath, trying to keep her cool so that she didn't split Zephyr's head from his shoulders.
"Zephyr I've told you over and over. I don't love you. Suck it up and deal with it," she says calmly. "Now, if I have to be stuck here with you for just tonight while Fluttershy is away on her trip, then I'm going to need my personal space." Zephyr rolls his eyes and wraps a hoof around her shoulders. Rainbow growls harshly under her breath.
"This is going to be a long fucking night...."
