Chapter 49

A month later, you sit in the VIP skybox at a Wonderbolts Derby, your back hooves resting on the back of the seat in front of you. “So, anyway, that’s when Princess Celestia told me that I was a perfect fit for Rainbow Dash. Did I mention that Rainbow Dash is my marefriend?”

The stallion beside you is resting his head on a hoof. “Yup,” he responds tiredly. “You’ve told me several times in the last hour.”

“Well, then I said-”

The clopping of hooves into the sparsely-populated skybox jolts you from your egocentric furor, and you crane your neck to look at the entryway. Rainbow Dash is there in full uniform, and she flashes you a grin.

“Hey hot stuff,” she greets you. “What’d you think of that? Fastest heat this season!”

“I’m so proud, Dashie! As if Equestria needed any more proof that you’re awesome!” you beam and turn to the stallion next to you. “Hear that?”

“I saw it,” he mumbles. “And they announced it, because it was a record, so yeah. I did.”

“Anyway, I snuck out to grab you.” Rainbow Dash states. “Let’s get some lunch!”

You’re completely stuffed from the VIP buffet at the back, but you’re also not one to ever let your Dashie down. “You got it, Rainbow Dash!”

You head over to stand beside Rainbow Dash, and she wraps a wing around you, resting the main feathers on your cutie mark as if she owns you.

You look back to your unwilling spectatorial companion and wiggle your eyebrows. He ignores you.

Once you’ve left the lounge and are in the hallway, you ask Rainbow Dash a question. “Hey, Dashie, didn’t they feed you guys some sort of specially-formulated lunch before the Derby? You hungry again already?”

Rainbow Dash stops in her tracks, wincing and sighing. “I lied because you were with another pony. “I’m not hungry at all, I just really need you to come and cuddle with me on a cloud.”

“Awww…” you moan, smiling. “My Wittle Dashie wants some snuggles!”

Rainbow Dash socks you one in the barrel. “Never say that ever again!”

You cough several times and struggle to catch your breath. “I-it’s true, though.”

“Are you going to shut up, head with me to a soft cloud, and hold me or not!?” she asks, clearly frustrated and in need of some loving attention.

“...Can I have a kiss, first?”

“Are you serious?” she spits.

“That’s the deal,” you say smugly.

Rainbow Dash growls. She cranes her neck around to make sure nopony is present, and then attacks you with a rather aggressive kiss.

You whine a little bit when she pulls away, as her teeth gently scrape your bottom lip. “There!” she hisses under her breath. “One kiss in exchange for some cuddles I desperately need. Are you happy!?”

You close one eye and think for a long moment, smiling as you come to your conclusion.

“...Yeah. I am.”
