Scootaloo entered the cottage, having arrived early to meet her sisters. Well, they weren't actually her sisters, not in the blood relation. But since Scootaloo had been taken under Rainbow's wing as her little sister, the filly couldn't help but see Fluttershy in the same way. Nowadays, since Rainbow and Fluttershy were married, it just made more sense to see them both as her sisters. She always had, but now it was practically "official" by this point.

Seeing that nopony was around in the downstairs, she decided to go look upstairs.

Hearing voices however, it confirmed that they were indeed up there. Grinning, Scootaloo hopped up the stairs a lot faster.
"Oh, COME ON!"

Rainbow and Fluttershy, having been lying on their bed, side by side, kissing, were now sitting up with surprise. Scootaloo's yell had been in reaction to seeing them in an intimate kind of way. Not that she didn't expect it, she just didn't like walking in on them.

"Scootaloo...you're early," Futtershy said softly.

Rainbow chuckled, grinning. "What's wrong, squirt? Can't handle ol' me getting amorous with my own wife?"

The filly pouted, shaking her head. Despite her own outward protests, she never actually had anything against her sisters being romantic. There was just still that underlying feeling of seeing Rainbow Dash, of all ponies, getting all sweet and soft. It was different from the Rainbow Dash she knew. Scootaloo wasn't bothered by it, not in the way most would think, but it still felt odd sometimes. Feeling a sense of discomfort, yet, warmth, Scootaloo climbed into bed with them.

"You don't have to be embarrassed, Scootaloo," Fluttershy smiled. "It's okay to be affectionate. Don't you think Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle deserve your affections?"

"....W-Well, yeah..." Scootaloo looked away.

Rainbow ruffled her mane, grinning, "Trust me, squirt, you get used to it. You think it was easy for me?"

"No..." Scootaloo pouted. "I always thought you were too cool for love."

This made Rainbow laugh a bit, as did Fluttershy.

"I thought the same thing, and didn't care most of the time!" Rainbow admitted, shaking her head at the memories. "But you know what, kid?"

"What?" Scootaloo looked up at her older sister.

The prismatic mare smiled, bringing a hoof around her back, "Sometimes it takes just the right kinda pony to bring out this side of you."

"...What's that supposed to mean?"

Fluttershy interjected, "It means that sometimes you feel you can express yourself in a certain way with most ponies. They just bring you that kind of side of you, and you feel comfortable showing them that."

Scootaloo let that sink in for a moment. It made sense, she knew that she shared a lot of great things with her friends that she wouldn't just tell nor share with anypony else in her class. She could easily, mostly, hug Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle, which made her smile. But if a random colt or filly asked for a hug, she wouldn't like it.

"...I guess I understand..." Scootaloo mumbled. "But what about us?"

"You're like our little sister," Rainbow Dash grinned. "Although I guess Fluttershy's kinda your sister-in-law, if you think about it."

Fluttershy giggled, nuzzling the filly. "You were always my sister, Scootaloo."

"And you were mine!" Rainbow agreed, nuzzling Scootaloo as well.

The orange filly blushed immensely. "Stop it!"

"Keep going? Okay!"

"Nooooooo!"

Despite Scootaloo's protests, there was no denying that she enjoyed the fun and affection that she shared with her two honourary sisters. They truly were the best sisters she could ever ask for. Rainbow Dash was awesome, daring, fast, and very determined. She had a passionate fire to her that was inspiring to anypony to thrive for. Beneath it, she was a real softie with a big heart. Fluttershy was more reserved, soft, gentle and very sweet. But she too had a fire of her own, even if it was different.

Together, they were quite a couple and a great team. Scootaloo knew that all too well, and they both gave her the kind of sisterly love she could never have imagined. She felt happy, warm, excited, thankful, and just so glad to be with them.  Either together or separate, Scootaloo loved to spend time with them.

They may not have been related to her by blood, but that didn't make them any less of sisters to her.
