Rainbow Sparkles

Chapter four - Under the apple tree.

For a few days, She did nothing. She didint eat or sleep. Her heart was broken. From hurting somepony and from being hurted.

She just sat there for a very long time. It was painful, having the whole heartbreaking scene played again and again in her head.

The fourth day, she felt her stomack clawing at itself. It rumbled endlessly.

Looks like the inner dash needs to be fed.

She stumbled out of bed, on her hooves for the first time in days. She feasted on carrots and oak leaves. They did taste good, she had to admit. Eventually, she was full. She decided to go for a fly to stretck her wings.

She flew to a far end of ponyville, flying quickly in case Twilight would see her. She rested under a tree.

She almost fell asleep when she heard hooves approaching. She quickly shot up into the tree. Believe it or not, It was Twilight and pinkie pie. Dash's heart wrenched, but she stayed in the tree.

“Look, thats a nice tree. Can we rest under it for a little bit?” pinkie asked.

Twilight nodded and sat under it. Dash watched, holding her breath.

Pinkie grinned and sat next to her.

And then they kissed. It was long. Rainbow dash wastched in silent misery.

“I love you so much. And im sorry about rainbow dash. She'll get over it.” Pinkie said.

Rainbow felt like screaming. She felt like hurling the apples from the tree at pinkie pies head.

But she just sat there, frozen.

“Im hoping that shes okay. Im just so worried about her. And... I think she really does love me. She was very sincere that day.”

Twilight rested her head against the pink pony's shoulder. She sighed a happy sigh.

“The party was very good, pinkie. AJ was so happy I bet.”

“Thanks, Twi.”

They sat there in silence again. Suddendly, pinkie reached out and licked the pink part of twilight's mane.

Twilight blushed. She kissed the pink pony's cheek tenderly.

Twilight hugged her and they kissed more and more.

Rainbow dash was beggingint to wonder weather it had been a good idea to stay in the tree. She could not have seen this. That should have been her, under the tree, hugging twilight.

And then, a drop of water fell on Twilight's shoulder. And then another.

“Hey, pinkie. Are you crying?” Twilight asked, confuzed.

Pinkie shook her head

Rainbow realized that the tears were comming from her, and she shot off home.

Twilight heard the rustle of leaves and looked at the tree. A single blue feather that pinkie did not see slowly floated down from the branches onto Twilight's nose.


The next day, Rainbow returned to the tree. Not to spy, but to just be there.

She was resting there, humming to herself a sad song when Pinkie pie trotted up. She waved.

“Hey rainbow dash, I was supposed to meet Twilight here today, but I have some really important things to do at sugarcube corner. When she gets here, can you tell her that I cam but im really really really sorry? Thanks dashie!” She galloped away.

There was no way Rainbow was gonna tell that to twilight.

Or maybe, should I? I mean, she still is my friend. She just.. took the love of my life away from me, thats all. She still likes me I think. Cause she didint see me in the tree.

She was still thinking nice and nasty thoughts when twilight trotted up.

“Hey, umm... Rainbow. Is pinkie here? Um.. has she been here? Im a little late...”

“No, pinkie's not here and she didint come here. What's it to you?”

Twilight walked up to her friend. She took rainbows face in her hooves.

“Look, im really sorry. I mean it. I know that you prob-”

Rainbow closed the small gap between their faces and kissed her. Twilight tried to pull away, but Rainbow held on. She kissed her passionatly with every last ounce of her heart. And Twilight kissed back. Their lips mingled and danced. It was a magical moment.

Then Rainbow pulled away slowly, looking into Twilights eyes. They were... happy?

Rainbow blushed. Twilight smiled and then a look of anxiousness crossed her face.

Pinkie was there behind them, holding a box of The same heart shaped cookies rainbow dash had once bought.

One look on pinkie's face told them she had seen it all. Pinkie's face welled up and-

“WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAAAAA” Pinkie hollered. She burst into tears, throwing the box onto the floor and galloping away.

“Look what you did now?” Twilight yelled.

“Its my fault?” Rainbow asked.

“You kissed me!” Twilight siad.

“you kissed me back!”

Twilight frowned and ran after pinkie.

Rainbow looked at the ground for a while.

“Well played, dashie.” She said sarcastically.
