As Apllejack awoke from her nap, she went down stairs for dinner. She still had a cramp in hoof from running.
When she got down stairs, she saw the whole family at the table. Apple Bloom, Granny Smith, and Big Macintosh.
Granny Smith waved a hoof at applejack telling her to sit down for dinner.
"Come, sit down and eat Applejack," Granny Smith said, making a motion with her hoof for AJ to sit down.
"Are you feeling better big sis?" Apple Bloom asked with slight concern in her voice.
"Ah'm fine Apple Bloom," saying, as she flinched with a slight cramp in her back from sleeping. "Ah just have a few cramps, is all, but nothing bad."
Big Mac dug into his dinner. He worked all day, and only had a few snacks.
Applejack started to eat two. They were having hay bacon, green beans, and biscuits for dinner. "Thank you for making dinner Granny Smith, it was delicious!" Complemented Applejack on the old mares cooking.
"Oh, I didn't make it, Big Macintosh did! You should thank him."
Big Mac's checks grew red in embarrassment, as he said, "Aw shucks, it was nothing."
"Then, thank you, Big Mac," the farm pony said with a hint of appreciation in her voice. As a few minutes passed, the farm ponies got ready to go to bed, and as Applejack went to her room, she said, "Good night Everypony!."
"Good night!" Everypony yelled, one by one, from they're rooms to Applejack as they all turned they're lights off.
The next, Applejack woke up to open up her apple stand for the day. As she got there, she saw Thunder Lane. The dark gray pony walked, probably to buy some apples.
They talked a little bit before he left. They both talked about what happened since she saved the CMC, and what was going on with the two. As Thunder Lane lifted off to go home, Applejack started thinking. Applejack always thought he was a great pony, a nice guy, and a bit handsome if not. She "almost" had feelings for him, and I'm sure he felt the same way.
She was on break, so she decided to take a little walk. As she did, she ran into the CMC. Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle were all running down the streets of Ponyville, until on of them bumped into her.
"Sorry Applejack," Scootaloo said, apologizing to the orange farm pony.
She stumbled back, almost falling down on her haunches. "It's ok, Scootaloo. Just watch out where ya'll, alright? You almost made me fall," Glaring down at the three with slight anger and forgiveness, she carried on with her day.
"It wont happen again AJ!" Sweetie Belle insisted, raising her hoof up like Applejack was a general or a commander, but then realized it was worthless doing it.
Later that day, she picked up the bits she made that day and headed towards back to the farm house. as she walked into the door of the red house, she was greeted by Granny Smith.
"So, how much did you make today?" Asked Granny Smith.
"I actually made a lot today Granny Smith. It almost feels like a 1 pound tone is hanging off my back," not that she knows what that feels like. "Well Ah'm gonna go to my room now, if you don't mind," saying, as she set her saddle bag down. "I had a long day today, and I need a bit of rest.
"Alright dearie, I'll call you down for dinner when it's ready."
As she made her way to her room, she set her hat on her night stand next to her. I wonder what Thunder Lane is doin' right now, she thought to herself.
She trotted over to the bathroom to take a shower. After she took a shower she was probably going to take a nap.
She turned the nob to warm/hot and starting feeling the warm drops of liquid on her fur. The warm water calmed her, making her mind think and making her body relax. She tried not to slip as her body relaxed. Soon, she went into a peaceful state of mind as she started thinking about, What is going to happen next?.
As she got out the shower, she dried herself off and went back too bed room. Before she could get in the door, she heard Granny Smith call her down for dinner. "Already? That was fast," she claimed.
Step by step, going down the stairs, she could smell the food. When she got to the bottom of the stairs, she saw the family siting down at the table, eating.
"Are ya hungry Applejack?" Asked Granny Smith.
"No, Ah'm not that hungry," she insisted. "Ah'm just gonna go outside to get some fresh air."
As she walked out the door of the red farm house, she felt the wind blow against her fur. It was in between warm and cold.
She sat down on the chair that was on the porch, and pulled her hat down to protect her face from the wind.
As soon as she closed her eyes, she heard someone land in front of her. As she lifted up her hat to see, she saw a excited Thunder Lane.
"Hey AJ!" He said, excitedly.
She almost fell beck in her chair. "Ah! Don't do that, Thunder Lane! You scared me," saying, as she picked her hat back up.
"Oh, sorry Applejack. I just wanted to ask what you were doing," he asked with wonder.
Applejack got up from her spot. "Ah was just getting some fresh air is all," saying, as she put her hat back on.
"Are feeling better?" Thunder Lane raised a eyebrow as he asked.
"What do you mean?" Applejack, as well raised a eyebrow.
"I meant, do you feel better since last time?" He explained.
"Oh yea, that. Yea, Ah feel better, just a bit cramped up."
"Well, I'm just glad your ok AJ," he said, with a sign on relieve in his voice.
"Ah'm glad two."
Applejack's mind raced for a while, thinking about Thunder Lane. He saved her, and she wanted to call him, her hero...
