The next day, Riley was out training, and Applejack felt different, as if there was something wrong with her. She took it to Big Mac, who was catching up on his puzzle. He had to stop the puzzle so he could fix Riley's plane. "Is there anything wrong?" He asked, between eating an apple

Applejack's eyes shone, "No, it's that I have something to tell Riley, he would be excited beyond comprehension." She gushed.

Riley returned from training that night tired. As Applejack watched Riley's P-51 taxi up to the house, from the comfort of her bedroom window, Applejack didn't know if she should tell him. She couldn't leave him in the dark. She was going to have to tell him one way or another. 

Applejack ran down the stairs and out of the house. She slowed down as she got close to Riley's plane. She walked up to Riley just as he hopped out of his Mustang

"Um, Riley?" She asked.

Riley smiled, "Yes?"

"Um, I have something to tell you and…" 

Riley looked concerned, "Are you alright?" He asked.

The farm girl took a deep breath, "Riley, I want you to meet my sister. Come downstairs by 7:30 AM, okay sugarcube?" 

Riley nodded. "I love you." Applejack said before kissing Riley on his cheek.

As Riley stood where he was, he felt heat rushing to his face. "Love you too, AJ." Riley sighed. But truth be told, Riley was blushing crimson red.
