//------------------------------// // Fillyfooler // Story: What was meant to be // by StormHoof32 //------------------------------// Fillyfooler When Rainbow awoke, she felt well rested, but she was still a little freaked out over the kiss. How would Applejack be now that she knew that she liked her. She wasn't sure what would happen, but she would do whatever it took to keep her friendship together. But as Rainbow turned around, she saw Applejack, sitting on her floor, staring at her. She felt her throat constrict and over a dozen thoughts rushed through her mind. "A-Applejack?" she said, still kind of tired. "How are you up here?" "It doesn't matter Rainbow, I just wanted to tell you that, well, what happened yesterday...It was ok. I'm not mad." She explained. Rainbow blushed as she remembered the quick kiss on the cheek. "I-I uh..." She just couldn't get her thoughts out, her mind felt all jumbled and confused. And the more she tried to put her thoughts into any kind of coherent order, she just got more flustered. Only one thought was able to make itself know, and that was how she felt about Applejack. Applejack took Rainbows silence as a bad sign, and so she was about to leave, when Rainbow Spoke up. "I-I don't really understand what i'm feeling right now, but i do know, that I still enjoy hanging out with you Applejack, and I think i might like you a lot more than i led myself to believe." She explained. Applejack just smiled. "Ah understand sugarcube." she replied. "Uh, Applejack, how are you gonna get down?" she asked as she watched Applejack trying to think of how she would get back onto the ground. "It's ok, I can just fly you down." "Well that's mighty nice of ya Rainbow." she replied. She trotted over and had Applejack get up on her back. It felt weird to have somepony on her back, but she didn't mind. She flapped her wings and dashed out of the window, with a bewildered Applejack clinging to her back. As soon as she reached Sweet Apple Acres, she flew down, landed and let Applejack of. She tried to hold back a laugh as she saw that her friend's mane had been blown around so much that the hair-tie she normally wore was broken and her mane was all over the place. Rainbow couldn't hold it in any more, she burst out laughing, tears started streaming from her eyes. She had never laughed so hard in her life. Applejack just glared at her, now she had to go and completely brush all the knots out of her mane, and find a new hair-tie. "Oh man! hahaha, Applejack, you should see yourself!" she laughed. "Oh haha, very funny." Suddenly, right in the middle of her laughing, she felt Applejack's lips touch her own in a kiss. Rainbow just froze. Applejack laughed at her friends reaction. "You should see Your self." she laughed. Then finally being able to comprehend what just happened, rainbow regained her composure and stared at Applejack, she was still laughing. Finally she managed to stop, and told her that she had to go fix her mane. So after their little escapade they both parted ways for the day. Later, as Rainbow went about her job of clearing the sky, she could not stop thinking about how Applejack had kissed her. the kiss had so much more emotion to it, It made her want to just jump with giddiness. She knew now exactly how she felt towards the Orange mare, And now she wanted nothing more than to yell her name from the highest clouds. As soon as her Job was done, she found a nice little tree, and she laid down on one of the branches, and she just sat there, being lazy. It was what she used to love most, but of course there was something else she loved more, somepony else. After about and hour, she got up and stretched her wings. She then jumped, and took off for Sweet Apple Acres, to see Applejack. She wanted to fly as fast as she could, just to be able to be next to her. ***************************** After Applejack finished fixing her mane, she went out to the apple orchard to lie in the shade. It was an old pastime of hers, that she would use to think about the days events. As she laid there she thought about her and Rainbow Dash and what their friends would think if they knew that they liked eachother. A couple minutes later, Applebloom came out and sat down next to her on the shaded green grass. "So what ya doin sis?" she asked. "Thinkin," She replied, "why?" "Just wonderin." Applebloom fidgeted a bit before sayin what she had on her mind. "Its about Rainbow Dash isn't it?" she asked. "Applebloom! How did you know that Ah Liked her?" questioned the Orange mare. "Well uh, ah kinda read yer diary." she replied, looking nervous. Applejack just sighed, she didn't feel like getting mad right now. She just wanted to see Rainbow again. "Applebloom, Ah think Ah'm in love." she stated blatantly. Applebloom just sat there, lookin at the sky. "Applejack!" she shouted. Applejack looked at her wondering why she was so surprised. Then she saw where she was looking, she saw Rainbow Dash flying as fast as she could, toward the orchard. Applejack smiled with radiant joy as the light blue pegasus flew toward her. They collided together, and Applejack was pushed to the ground, as Rainbow landed on top of her. "Hi." she said blushing. "Howdy Rainbow." Applejack replied. Then as they laid there on the ground, Rainbow kissed her fully and passionately. "I love you Applejack." Rainbow said to the Blushing mare. "Ah love you too sugarcube." she replied. Applebloom watched and giggled as they stared at eachother. "You two are as silly as a schoolfilly." she laughed. Rainbow got up and helped Applejack up, pulling her into a tight hug. "So AJ, are you gonna tell anypony? Cuz I don't think i'm ready for that." Rainbow explained. "Aww don't you worry, Ah won't tell nopony." she replied. And with that, they kissed again, holding eachother in a loving embrace.
