She sat them down on the table next to the tea pot and the bowl of sugar cubes. She poured some coffee in my cup. "One lump or two?" She asked. "Two, please." I replied as I grabbed the milk. She put two sugar cubes into my cup and poured tea for everyone else. I poured some milk into my cup and stirred it until all the sugar was dissolved. I tilted the cup to my lips. "So, how goes the wedding plans?" Fluttershy asked. I did a spit take and looked at her and sighed. "Look, you're like the third to forth person I've had to say this to today. We are not getting married. We haven't even had an official first date yet." I said as Discord did a spit take. "You two? Dating?" He asked as he burst out laughing. "Now, Discord. It's not nice to laugh at friends." Fluttershy said. "Sorry. I just can't believe that the awesome Rainbow Dash is being tied down by a guy like him." He said. I set my cup down. "Excuse me? A guy like me? What exactly do you mean?" I asked, leaning forward on my elbows. "Well, isn't it obvious? You clearly aren't the right guy for her. She needs to be with someone... more her speed, someone who will be able to keep up with her." He said. I stood up with my fists clenched. "I'll have you know that I can keep up with her just fine. And if you say one more word, I'll make you eat those words." I said. He just shrugged. "Now, guys. There's no need for such violence." Flutteshy said quietly. "We better go before I hurt him." I said as I walked toward the door. Dash followed behind me.
