//------------------------------// // Chapter three // Story: Rainbow and the curious thing. // by Lightning Splash //------------------------------// "Well...It's a beautiful day out." Rainbow said awkwardly. "Eeyup." Big Mac said. "Do you even like blind dates?" Rainbow asked annoyed. How did she get roped into this stuff? "Nope." Big Mac said staring up into the sky. "Are you doing this just to make Applejack happy?" Rainbow asked suspicious. "Eeyup." "Ugghh!" Rainbow said with a face hoof. She sat in silence. "Do you like anyone?" She asked curiously. "Eeyup." "Really...? Wow, I mean, I'm surprised... I always found you, well not that you are, a bit...emotionless." "Emotionless?" He asked turning to her with one eyebrow raised. "Well, yeah. I mean, the only words I've ever heard you say are: 'eeyup' and 'nope'. It's sounds a bit...well, emotionless." "Well I love my sisters a lot." "Well yeah but,..." "Do you think Cherilee would like me more if I showed a bit more...emotion?" "Cherilee? You like- Bwaa ha ha ha!" Rainbow laughed hysterically. "Sorry, I just, uh." she snickered. "Well of course she like you more," She said actually thinking about it. "I mean, I don't know if you've noticed, but Cherilee shows a lot of emotion." Big Macintosh nodded thinking about it. They waited a while. "Well this was fun, but, if you don't mind, I have to go. And it seems to me you have a mare to talk to." Rainbow said with a wink. Big Mac smiled. "Eeyup." He answered heartily.
