Twilight had been having a rough time with Rainbow Dash. She had taken a heart break in the past year, with the famous Soarin’ from the Wonder-Bolts. ~Flashback~ “Hey Rainbow?” Soarin’ said, looked at Rainbow Dash with urgency. She was worried, their relationship has been spiraling to the ground for the past two weeks after dinner at Soarin’s parents was a complete disaster. They had disowned him, causing him into a rut with Rainbow Dash, because she was the problem. His parents had wanted him to be married to one of his co-workers, for a easier relationship because of all the trips they take, instead of traveling back on his down time. She felt that she would maybe have to break it off herself, because Soarin’ was going to crash and burn at this rate. “Yes hun?” She replied, looking away from a book that was lying out on the table: The History of Equestria’s Best Fliers. Soarin’ bracing himself for what he was going to say, alerted Rainbow to put her guard on. “I think it would be best.. If we.. You know.. Broke up?” He said, with a tears streaming down his face. Even then, Rainbow couldn’t keep it up, it tore her to pieces, a broken mess. She flew off as fast as she could, trying to escape making a scene, but a huge rainbow trail and rain falling down from it, alerting everypony that she was sad. The first place she saw was Twilight’s house, causing her to slow down and stop there. The lights were still on, so she went and knocked on the door as fast as she could, making Spike rush over to the door to let in whoever it was. Rainbow rushed in after the door opened, and closed it behind her, to continue her rush. Getting up to stairs, she crashed into Twilight, knocking both of then onto the ground. “Woha. What’s all the racket Rainbow? I saw the trail of tears falling from the sky. Is something the matter? Was it with Soarin’?” Twilight said, holding her friend to comfort her. Rainbow wiped her tears, and sat up to explain the events that had happen in the past few weeks. After a rough few hours of story telling, Twilight had felt like a therapist by then. “.. And so that’s how it happened..” Rainbow finished, hugging onto Twilight, a little cheered up for Twilight to listen to her problems. She let go, so Twilight could bring over some water for them to drink. After a few minutes of silence, she had to break it. “Do you need to come over more to have some help? I’ve apparently became the “go to” person for therapy and stuff like this. I’m usually free on Tuesday’s and Thursdays.” She asked her cyan friend. Nodding in response, she gave another hug to make sure she could make it back home without causing a scene. “Ya.. I would like that.. Thanks Twilight, your the best.” Rainbow said, before flying slowly out the window to her house. The compliment flattered Twilight in a odd fashion, but she didn’t really care, she liked compliments for all the hard work she has to do to keep the town folk sane at times, keeping her busy. For the next month, Twilight had been keeping up with Rainbows troubles, and she started to come less and less, lightening her work load every week. After Rainbow disappearing for a few weeks, a terrible storm was cause and she had so happened to be near Twilight’s house. Walking in, she ran into her moving books into a stack, and moving them up the stairs, not noticing her. Rainbow followed to find Twilight crashed in bed, tired from her day, she sat down next to her bed, admiring Twilight. She had seen her so much in the past month, she had grown on her. Her looks, style, personality, etc. She felt ready to go back into the dating world, but, she needed one more session with Twilight. But this time, she would make it count. But, something held her back, she wanted to keep coming back to Twilight, but she had no more problems to discuss because she had gotten over all of them. Maybe she could make a problem herself? No.. Too risky. Twilight grumbled and rolled over because the presence of another pony in the room was driving her crazy. She saw Rainbow looking at the ceiling, thinking to herself. “R-Rainbow? What are you doing here?” She asked with a sleep induced voice. Snapping back into reality, she had to speak up. “S-Sorry Twilight. The rain was hitting on my castle too hard, I had to go somewhere to stay under. Is it fine if I stay here?” “Y-Yeah.. You can join me in my bed if you want..” Twilight said willingly, not even realizing what she was saying half the time. Rainbow shrugged and snuggled under the covers with her for a nap. Tossing and turning, adjusting to a bed that wasn’t clouds for once, Twilight wrapped her arms around Rainbow, calming her down. She had made a move on her, blushing away from view. Twilight liked the extra warmth, and her emotions her drunk with passion, starting to fall for Rainbow. Maybe a start of something new for the two, maybe they will continue to have, “sessions” for a while now. The rain was still going in the morning, making ponies stay in for the day, and to eat their own food. Twilight opened her eyes to Rainbow in her face. Moving away, she looked outside, through the morning dew on the windows. A little gleam of light shot through the clouds and onto the blushing cyan pony next to her, from the crazy, but sleepy night. Not remembering a thing, she moved slowly out the bed, not to awake her friend and not watching her step, she stepped on a creaky plank, making a loud sound. Twilight cringed at the sound at her ears, but her friend did not wake. Sleeping like a boulder. She made her way down stairs to find Spike had moved out of the room for the night. He looked over at Twilight, trying not to alert her. “Spike? You awake?” She asked quietly. He stood up and stretched a little, but looked very tired when he spoke to Twilight. “That plank.. it woke me, but you and who ever is in your bed, made a bunch of racket last night. What was happening in there anyway?” “I-I honestly can not recall myself Spike.. I had been in a trance of sleep, just letting my brain do anything else, while I sleep.” “Huh.. Makes some sense..” He said, moving over to the kitchen, “Could I make you anything? Maybe you should go ask your friend if he or she wants anything also.” Twilight nodded and walked up stairs, to see Rainbow still asleep on her bed. “What in Celestia’s name did we do last night..” was the only thought that went through her head at this time. She walked over and nudged at her friend, trying to see if she would awake. Not budging, she had to get her up somehow. She pulled the sheet and Rainbow fell to the ground, waking her up instantly. “Who-What-When-Wher-.. Hey Twi.. When did I get here?” She said, startled at her presence. "I was hoping you could tell me. Your the one that woke up in my bed.. I think you were blushing." Twilight's words had triggered Rainbows mind to click back into place, making her realize her mistake. "Uhh.. I don't really remember myself Twi.." Rainbow lied, knowing her actions had spoken louder than words. "So you have no clue what happened at all? I can delve into your mind to find out you know Rainbow." Twilight threatened. Rainbow was in the midst of midlife crisis, but couldn't solve it. She could run for it, but that wouldn't solve anything, but prove that Twilight that she was lying, she could tell the truth and face the consequences, or just refuse to say anything. She had to come clean.. "Well.. The other night, the rain kind of had to make me get out my house, and I was close by here, so I came in. You ignored me and went and crashed up stairs. After a few moments, you invited me into your bed, and uhh.. Yeah..." "Dear Celestia.. We got intimate last night? Is that why my muscles are sore? Well.. That's fine Dash.. It's fine to explore YOUR feelings." "Your the one who invited me into the bed.." Twilight cringed again at that. She had been the one who made the move. What else could she had done, force Rainbow back into the heavy rain? No, her feelings got the better of her. She would have to pony up, and face the world of dating. "Rainbow.. Would you like to go out sometime?"
