	Applejack woke to the sensation of heavy warmth draped all around her, a warmth that could not be explained by the golden light of the morning sun. Opening her eyes, it took a moment for her to register what the field of white in front of her was.

Applejack started, but the unicorn remained asleep, the smile on her face and a slight flush to her cheeks announcing some sort of pleasant dream. Applejack sighed; it figured that the one night she fell asleep facing Rarity, the unicorn would take advantage and snuggle up. Shifting her legs, she realized as her hooves rubbed against silky fur that Rarity wasn't the only one who had gotten friendly overnight. She watched Rarity's face cautiously, but she showed no signs of discomfort, the unicorn only tightening her own grip upon Applejack.

Shaking her head, Applejack used her hooves to carefully disentangle herself from her bedmate, gently pushing Rarity off of her, the unicorn groaning as she began to stir. Applejack gave the unicorn a gentle pat on the head before she sliding out of bed, setting her hooves down one by one on the floor before finally tip-toeing her way over to Twilight's dresser.

"Not so pretty after a night of sleepin' on it," Applejack mused to herself as she looked in the mirror before bending down to grab one of Twilight's brushes in her mouth and setting to work getting her mane into a semblance of order, gathering the long strands together against the side of her neck with her hoof before running the brush through it.

Hearing the bed start to creak behind her, Applejack set the brush down on the top of the dresser to greet her friend, but paused at the sudden sight of crimson on the brush handle. Blinking, Applejack took a closer look at the brush, then at herself in the mirror, lifting a hoof to her mouth to touch the red substance glistening on her lips.

"Rarity, why the hay am I wearin' your lipstick?"
