Lightning sat at the desk typing in a series of numbers in a calculator as she drawed out a long sigh and held her head in her hoof. Lately things hadn't been going very well for the Rainbow and Lightning household. LS and RD and been promoted to the managers of the Ponyville weather team and it was Lightning Storm's job to take care of all the numbers while Dash got to lead the weather team. As much as Lightning hated math, she decided it was for the best that she take care of the taxes and handing out pay checks and such.
"Storm... You in here..?" Lightning herd a voice call out.
"In the office Dash...!" Storm's ears perked up as Rainbow Dash trotted into the office.
"I've been looking for you all day..." Rainbow said with a sigh and she glanced nervously at the black mare.
"S-sorry... I didn't mean to worry you..." LS smiled up at the cyan mare weakly as RD raised her eyebrow.
"Storm... I don't recall you coming to bed last night or the night before that... When did you last sleep...?"
"Uh... I... Um...No...?" Lightning stuttered before turning back to the paper and reaching for her calculator, in return getting air. She looked over her shoulder to see her unhappy fiancée sitting there holding the calculator.
"You're coming to bed. Now. It's almost ten anyways." Rainbow sighed as Lightning gave her a pitiful look.
"I need to finish this Dash... It's due tomorrow... Please... I promise I'll come to bed... Later.."
"No. Now." Rainbow glared softly and Lightning flattened her ears and stared at the ground.
"...No"
"What?"
"N-no... I'm finishing this..."
"Storm please. It's for your health, not my benefit."
Lightning Storm sighed and she got out of the chair and trotted next to her fiancée. Rainbow let out a relieved sigh and nuzzled Lightning.
"You have to stop working yourself past your limit... It's not good for you... And you do it all the time..."
"I can't help it... I feel like if I don't push my limits then I'll never find 'em... It's what I grew up on Dashie..."
"yeah but you told me you hate your parents..."
"I do it's just... They taught me a few valuable things in my life though..."
"yes well THAT is not one of them.. If I would've let you work yourself like that any long you would've blacked out."
"You don't know that..."
Rainbow gave Lightning a 'oh really?' look an Lightning blinked and flattened her ears.
"Your mad aren't you?"
"..." Rainbow turned away pretending to ignore the black mare
"...I'm sorry and I love you...?" LS smiled hopefully and Rainbow rolled her eyes and chuckled at the mare.
"What am I going to do with you?" she chuckled and a grin appeared across Lightning Storm's face.
"Weeeellllll..... I could think of a few things..." Rainbow only blushed and glared at her.
"You need sleep."
"Yeah yeah... I got it..." Lightning Storm chuckled and climbed into the bed, holding onto the cyan rainbow pegasus. No denying she loved holding Rainbow Dash, but no denying she had been working herself to death and need to take a break... Sadly, breaks are a myth to this poor pegasus.
