Truth or Scare

Last Chapter: "Not Interested."

2 days, one break up, one realization later

It was Monday and everything is how it was before. Everyone seemed to be buzzing about Soarin's party, and the four of the main six found out Twilight and Fluttershy broke up. Applejack and Rainbow Dash wanted to keep their relationship status hidden until they found the right time to speak of it again.

"Why would you two break up? You look so good together!" Rarity whined.

"Fluttershy and I thought it was for the best. Dating one of your best friends is, how should I say it, downright despicable!" Twilight said, saying "downright despicable" in an awful French accent. The girls chuckled.

Well, almost all the girls.

"Well, actually, if you realize you have nothing in common anyway. Me and Flutters have nothing in common at all! Zilch! Zero! Nada! Doughnut hole..." Rainbow covered Twilight's mouth.

"What are you, a dictionary? I swear, Sweetie Belle knows less words than you..."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Rarity asked, confused.

"Nothing. It's nothing."

Rarity nodded before a smug grin spread across her face. It was time for some spoiling...

"So, Rainbow, Applejack, anything...interesting happened over the weekend?" The two shook their heads, "Really? Are you sure about that?" The two nodded their heads in unison.

"Rarity, what are you doing?.....Oh!" Twilight exclaimed as realization hit her like a rock.

Pinkie was baffled too until she realized what they meant and had the same expression Rarity had on her face.

"Did you silly billies happen to-oh, I don't know-MAKE OUT?!" Well, one thing they knew for sure: Pinkie goes straight to the point at times.

Though they had confused looks at first, Pinkie mentioning something about making out made them slowly realize what she was talking about. From confused to understand to downright shocking.

"H-how do you know about that?!" Asked a shocked Rainbow.

"I may or may not have been spying on you both," Rarity said, smiling, "Now spill! Was it magical? Was it horrible? Are you two an item now? Details, details, details!"

Rolling her eyes, Applejack spoke up, "It was mighty...magical. Better than apple pie, I guess. And about the 'in item' thing..." Her face flushed a bright red that would have made a tomato jealous.

Rainbow put her arm around Applejack and kissed her cheek, which grew hotter at the touch, "Yeah, yeah, Rarity. We're an item. You happy now?"

Squealing, Rarity hugged her two friends, followed by a cheerful Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy with Twilight. Suddenly, someone tapped on Rainbow's shoulder. When she turned around, she scowled. It was Soarin.

"What do you want?" she asked, folding her arms.

"Can we...talk?" Soarin asked.

"Why would I want to talk to you?"

"Look, Rainbow. I know I screwed up. Big time. And I'm sorry. I really am. Just give me a chance to say this," taking a deep breath, he said, "Will you go out with me?"

Had the girls been any quieter, the crickets would have shut up too. Wide eyed in shock, the girls all looked at Rainbow, who for some reason, looked like she didn't know what to do.

Finally, she spoke up.

"Not interested."

It was Soarin's turn to be quiet and register everything that just happened.

"What?"

"I said I'm not interested. I don't want to date you."

"W-why not? Is it because of what I said about you and Applejack? I said I was sorry-"

"I don't care. If I'm not interested, I'm not interested. Move along now." she shooed him off.

"You can't do this to me! I'm very popular! You will regret this, Rainbow Dash!" he said, while he was being pushed into another hall.

"Yeah, yeah, your grandma's pretty, too. Goodbye now!" And he was nowhere in sight.

Sighing, she turned around and faced her friends and girlfriend.

"You okay, Rainbow Dash?" Twilight asked, concerned.

"I'm fine. Never really liked that jerk anyway. Too...sappy for my taste," Rainbow said shrugging then putting her arm around Applejack, "Besides, I got AJ here who is very much my type. If she's happy, so am I."

"Awwwwwwwwwwwww!" The girls cooed in unison, earning a playful glare from Applejack.

"Looks who's bein' sappy now." she said blushing. Rainbow gave her a quick peck on the lips.

"Don't act you don't like it. I'm awesome like that."

"Yes, yes ya are. Now c'mon, class is gonna start."

"Ooh! You know what this calls for?!" Pinkie asked.

"What?" Fluttershy asked.

"Another party! A slumber party!"

Rainbow Dash smiled, "A slumber party sounds cool. Let's have another one."
