//------------------------------// // Meet me uder the mistletoe // Story: Meet me under the mistletoe // by SixShooterOutlaw //------------------------------// Rainbow Dash was headed toward her front door, she had been out all day shopping for Christmas, but once she got to the door she noticed something on it. She pulled the piece of paper off her door and took it inside, she set all her bags on the ground and read the note. There wasn't a whole lot written on it just this: "Meet me under the mistletoe midnight on Christmas Eve at the entrance to Ponyville" Rainbow Dash flipped the note over to see if anypony had signed it, but the other side was blank. She decied that she would ask Twilight what she should do in the morning, but right now all Rainbow wanted to do was go to bed, so she fed Tank, grabbed one of her Daring do books, read for a while and fell asleep. The next morning she went directly to the library to see Twilight. "Good morning Rainbow, how are you today?" Twilight asked her friend. "I'm doing fine, but last night I found this on my door" Rainbow told her. Twilight took the note from Rainbow and read it. "Oh Rainbow, it sound's as if somepony want's to meet you!" Twilight said happily. "Well duh, I got that much" Rainbow responed. "Maybe it's your friend Doctor Whooves!" Twilight replied exitedly."No, I don't think he would do this" Rainbow told her friend. "Oh a secret admirer, how romantic!" Twilight said to her."But what if it's some crazy pony?" Rainbow asked. "Rainbow, do you really think that some crazy pony would try to get you on Christmas eve? I've never seen you act so paranoid." Twilight said to her."Me? I'm not paranoid, I just don't want to meet a crazy pony" Rainbow explained to her friend."Then why don't you go?" Twilight asked. "Like I said I don't want to meet a crazy pony" Rainbow told her. "Come on Rainbow, what if it's a really nice stallion, would you want to leave him standing there in the cold?" Twilight asked her. "I guess not, all right, I'll go if it'll make you happy" Rainbow Dash told her friend. "You know this could be the start of something great" Twilight said to Rainbow as Rainbow opened the door and left .Rainbow Dash started to head back home but her mind was full of thoughts so she decided to take a walk to clear her head."Well it could be a crazy pony, but then Twilight could be right, it could be a nice stallion and he does want to see me, so why should I let him down" she thought to herself "But it could be a prank somepony is planing to pull on me like what happened at flight school" Rainbow thought about the time someone left a note on her locker saying that Soarin wanted to meet her, she got really excited and went to meet him and it turned out to be the bullies who thought she couldn't fly and called her "Rainbow Crash", so she was nervous to meet this pony, so she decided to go see another friend of her's Doctor Whooves, she went over to his house and knocked on the door."Well hello Rainbow Dash!" Doctor Whooves said happily after answering the door."What brings you here?". Rainbow Dash explained what had happened about finding the note and what Twilight said."Well do you really think that a crazy pony left a note on your door saying they want to meet you?" he asked her. "Yeah I do,what else could it be" she answered him."I honestly agree with Twilight on this one, it could be a very nice stallion for you" Doctor Whooves pointed out. "I think you and Twilight are right, maybe I should go" Rainbow told him."That's the spirit!" he exclaimed happily "Well tell me how it works out!". "Okay, see you later Doctor" Rainbow said to him as she went to head out the door "Can I ask you a question?" she asked him. "Yes?" he said to her"."Did you send the note?" "No, I have my eye on somepony else" he answered. Just checking, well Merry Christmas Doctor" Rainbow said to her friend."Merry Christmas Rainbow" he replied. She left his house and decided to go home and get some rest. It was Christmas Eve and all the ponies in Ponyville were very excited, fillies and colts were having snowball fights and talking about what they asked Santa Hooves for Christmas, and mares and stallions were doing some last minute shopping. Rainbow Dash was heading to Sugarcube Corner for the Christmas party Pinkie Pie was having.Once she got there she went over and got a cup of hot chocolate, she went over to her friends and Rarity said "Twilight tells us that you got a note from a secret admirer saying to meet at midnight tonight, isn't it just the most romantic thing EVER?" "Twilight, why did you tell them?" Rainbow asked Twilight. "Oh come on why not tell them, besides you never said I couldn't" Twilight told her. "Your right I didn't" Rainbow said to her. "So are you going to go?" Pinkie Pie asked her. " Well.." Rainbow said. "Oh why not?" Applejack asked Rainbow. "It could be from somepony you like" Fluttershy pointed out. "I know, I know" Rainbow said "I already told Twilight I would, so yeah I'm going to go". All her friends started to cheer and the party continued until about ten till midnight, with a few words of encouragement from her friends she headed out the door and to the edge of town. When she arrived, there was nopony but then it wasn't midnight yet, then suddenly Rainbow Dash heard hoofbeats and then saw a shadow. she looked towards the shadow and she couldn't belive her eyes: standing there under the mistletoe with her was none other than Soarin! "Hey Rainbow Dash" he said nevously. "Hey Soarin" she replied sounding just as nevous. "I didn't think you'd come, but it was a chance worth taking!" he said happily. "Yeah, I was worried about coming" she told him. "Well I'm gald we both took this chance" he said to her then he looked at his watch and said "It's almost midnight" he then looked again and said "Five, four, three, two, one" he leaned over, kissed her and said "Merry Christmas Rainbow Dash" she looked at him and said "Merry Christmas Soarin".
