"Here we are. You're probably stayin' here for most of the time. As always..." Applejack told Rainbow when the two had arrived to the room. Rainbow Dash zoomed in, dropped her bags and hovered, taking in her surroundings. The walls were a vibrant crimson shade and was dotted with various pictures of Applejack and her folks ; the carpet was a soft and ravishing white one that reminded Rainbow Dash of her wonderful clouds in which she missed so much at home. There were two beds- both had a silky ruby duvet with matching pillows, fluffed with extreme and tender care and an apple carved in the bed-posts, naturally. Rainbow Dash plonked herself adruptly on one bed ,the one closest to the door, sighing and enjoying the relief. "Rough flight huh," Applejack noted. Rainbow Dash snorted.
"You bet. My dad flew me half -way, nagging about responablilites as a young eligable mare and stuff. I mean, really, me? Eligable? Oh puh-leese! Where did that come from any ways?" Rainbow then proceeded to roll over and face Applejack.
"Sugar-cube," Applejack began softly, trying to think of ways to help Rainbow Dash.
"I think what yer ol' man was tryin' to say was he thinks you are in need of a special somepony to look after ya."
"What?" Rainbow asked, rasing an eyebrow.
"Why would he think that? I can take of myself." Rainbow Dash added, puffing out her chest. Applejack then sighed.
"He may think you'll need somepony so ya don't get lonely in life..." It then dawned on Rainbow dash what her father was implying.
"Oh for the love of..." She began, irrtated when Granny Smith interupted.
"GIRLS! IT'S TIME FOR DINNER!"
"COMIN' GRANNY! We'll save this conversation for later. 'k Rainbow?" Rainbow Dash nodded and leapt off her bed, landing gracefully.

As the two sat down, Rainbow Dash could feel tension hang loosely in the air. Big Macintosh was sitting next to her. Fantastic. No sooner had Rainbow Dash sat down, Mac edged his chair away slightly. "Thanks for having us Granny Smith..." Rainbow said, polite and considerate. The meal, needless to say, of hay fries, oats, apples and other such foods looked mouth-watering. Granny Smith beamed.
"No problem Dear. Apple Cider?"
"Uh, no thanks. Water would be great thank you..." Granny nodded, excusing herself to fetch the drinks.
"So..." Rainbow Dash uttered after a long pause.
"I heard ya'll been visted by the Wonderbolts recently. How'd tha' go?" Applejack asked, trying to perk the mood up.
Rainbow Dash's ears sprung up and her face gleamed with pride.
"It went great! They wanted to know if wanted to join their training programme as they were impressed with the awesome Sonic Rainboom I pulled off." She stated proudly. Big Mac rolled his eyes. ''Show off..." He muttered to himself.
" Sonic Rainboom? Wha' is tha'?" Applebloom asked, curious.
"It's where Rainbow Dash flies so fast that she breaks the sound barrier! And she makes this massive boom with a rainbow effect! And... well, it's kinda hard to explain."Scootaloo explained , parts of her feeling foolish.
"Ah'll believe when I see it." Big Mac huffed, annoyed. The Sonic Rainboom was just a old mare's tale, right?
"Is that a challenge? I can so totally do it. It's how I earnt my cutie mark afterall." Rainbow dash annonced, glaring at Big Macintosh.
"Eeyup. I'm challenging ya Dashie." he taunted back, using the nickname she despised.
"Don't.Ever.Call.Me.Dashie." Rainbow Dash hissed through gritted teeth. As she heard Granny Smith reapproching, Rainbow Dash recomposed herslef, still boiling inside.
"Thanks..."
"You're quite welcome.I see you're Father brought you up well." Granny Smith commented, placing Rainbow's glass of water next to her plate.Eyes trained on her glass, Rainbow Dash tried to calm herself down. She blushed slightly at the comment Granny Smith had made about her.
"Tuck in!" Granny yelled, gesturing to the food.
And so they did...
