Rainbow Dash is very well aware that Scootaloo is her Number One Fan. That doesn't mean she has to like it. While she enjoys the attention and encouragement she gets from the little filly and her other fans, she isn't too fond of actually dealing with them. It's nothing personal.
But after she overhears Scootaloo being bullied by some of her classmates about her flying ability, Rainbow Dash decides that perhaps it's time her Number One Fan got some encouragement of her own.

I hope you enjoyed this little bittersweet tale. Would you kindly leave some feedback, and tell me what you thought?
"One could say that the rainbow-maned was"
The rainbow-maned what?
I would say that the expositional paragraphs at the beginning could be a little less... blunt, if you catch my drift. Try and work her dislike for fan-interaction into the story, instead of outright stating it.
Flyin' around, doijavascript:void(%200%20);n' my thing," Rainbow Dash aloofly replied with a shrug. "Thought's I'd drop in on my Number One Fan."
oh god what
But, besides those few things, this was really good! Technically, it was almost flawless. Everypony was completely in character. If only it were a little longer!
Keep up the good work!
This has gotta be the cutest thing I've read in days!
At first I was like:

And when I was done I was going:

Loved the story, write more.
This was pretty cool actually :) I thought that it might turn depressing or something, but it was cute and I loved it. I think you got everything so well-especially the childhood bullies thing. Rainbow Dash and Scoots was perfect. I love it. :)
Cute little story. You should write more.
so i was reading this and then this appeared in the text

903523 Yeah, I will admit, the beginning has a bit more literary brute force than I intended. I'll see if I can edit it into a better position.
903581 I'm confused, who are the haters hating? Me, my story, or aquatic-action Santa delivering toys to the people of Atlantis?
Regarding everyone who liked/favorite'd: Thank you all so much!
I'm glad y'all are liking it.
Regarding that horrendous formatting error: Wut. Okay, that happened after this was submitted, because neither I nor my friend saw it during our proofreads. How very odd. And unfortunate, as it really broke the flow and tone of that scene...
903891
I apologise for my confusing use of that picture. If it confuses you, just pay attention to the far more recognizable and flattering "Dis gun b gud" I gave you. I give that .gif only to authors I really like, so be happy!
Spoon. Mass disappoint. Don't give that bitch new material.
Or
Are you being INFECTED?!
903910 Oh, okay. Yay, thanks!
Of course, I've also seen that Gif used before a "wtf" or "do not want" or otherwise negative gif, and I didn't quite understand the meaning of the second pic, so that partially explains my confusion. But oh well, no big deal. Point is, you liked the story, and I am glad you enjoyed it! 
903912 What?
I'm... afraid I do not quite follow...
903944
I said I'm disappointed with the way Silver Spoon acted. I personally believe that she's just doing it because of a VERY bad hand being dealt. So acting this way to gain approval of Diawhore Bastara instead of standing up for herself is disappointing.
Oh well. Still liked. Not favorite, but liked.
"Thought's I'd drop in on my Number One Fan."
Just sayin'.
Good story. Most stories with Scoots and Dashie are so bittersweet...
Awww
I adore this
Hope you expand this some day. That would be marvelous.
The whole Scoots/Dash thing has been done so many times before...
But yours was refreshing, I'll continue to read.
Good work.
This was fantastic. I wish I could come up with one-offs like this...
Dawww! That's adorable.
WHAT??? How has this work not earned a
yet?
Lol wonderful one-shot. Certainly would be nice to see a few more from you on these two!
Pretty please? 
This made me happy! This is a great fic, I'll be watching you. And here's a cookie.
weddingcake.name/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/big_chocolate_chip_cookie.jpg
This is not a request. This is not a suggestion. This is not an option. This is a demand.
Moar.
Kthanks.
900000 Sequel?
Rainbow Dash may have a tough and confident exterier, but she is truely a loyal friend! Thanks for expressing that :D
I will say that instead of people pony, I would say a ponies pony, however, it does not flow for some people and it may not for you either.
Loved the story, though! Keep at it.
903979 Eh, well, at least you liked it.
904232 It makes me very happy to hear that.
Seriously, I'm glad you felt that way. I was worried a lot of readers would assume it was the "same old, same old," so to speak...
904415 Thank you. Mustaches make everything better.
904812 ~gasp~ Yay! Cookie!
Regarding everyone clamoring for a sequel: Maaaaaaybe.
I have a couple of ideas for how I might could continue this. It wouldn't be anything long... Just a short scene or two, to serve as an epilogue for sorts, I guess. But at the same time... I don't know. I really like where I left this off. It lets the reader form their own conclusions and epilogues... And I dunno if I wanna ruin that. 
But let's be honest, between the ideas and the pleading fans, I'll probably end up doing it...
Regarding TONS of hits, feedback, and favorites: Oh my gosh you people ROCK!!
905473 Thank you very much. One thing I wanted to do with this story was show that while Dash can be tough, proud, and a bit egotistical... she's still a good pony at heart, and is indeed a loyal, concerned friend. I'm glad to hear I succeeded so well in that goal.
And oh my gosh, yes.] I sat there forever trying to figure out how to say "people person" in pony-speak. It was horrible!
I finally decided that "people pony" made the most since, as it just sounded better. Plus, there are other creatures besides ponies in Equestria. Hence, "people" instead of "ponies."
Uhuhuhu.... nice story indeed. Hoof up!
I think I may be addicted to Scootalove, that was a very sweet story, great job.
905796
No seriously. What the hell do you think You're doing?
905796 What pray tell does this have to do with the story, seriously were you asleep or something when you typed this in?!
906138 I agree what ARE you doing?!
903581 So why do you think people are going to hate this if that's what the last pic is implying, and to finish that sentence SEND EM TO THE MOON!
Huh. People are using the comments of my section to spam their advertisements/scams? I guess that must mean this story is pretty popular, then!
*deletes post in question*
Now then, back to ponies...
Wow. I'm an avid hater of Rainbow Dash AND Scootaloo, but..this was really good. I liked it.
SEQUEL. SEQUEL NOW.
My heart melted
905487
how about "social mare" instead of people pony.
It's nice that Dash is willing to lie for a friend, but there's more than one way to be bad at something. And she was called Rainbow Crash when she was young
906732
People will hate this because it's MLP-related, even if they can't be bothered to have an account here.
But haters gon hate, bronies guna love.
Gotta love stories where Rainbow makes Scootaloo happy! Fantastic job!
>no parents
yup, they went there, now we gotta whoops some ass boys
I absolutely loved it! A nice, short piece on Scootaloo's problems, and how Rainbow is there for her when she needs it most.
This was a great story.
It was sweet and I loved how RD helped cheer up Scoot.
The only thing I would change would be Rainbow Dash flying in to protect Scootaloo while the bullies were talking, but how you wrote it was good. 
Maybe you could write another fanfic about one of the flying lessons they have.
"Sometimes she idly listen to the conversations..."
The word aloof comes up a lot and doesn't always seem like the right word.
There were other things I remember taking issue with, but I can't remember them now. There's never really an end to the improvements which can be made.
All in all, this story isn't a bad read. I liked it.

So...beautiful. Rainbow Dash is a saint
heartwarming. faith in humanity has been somewhat restored.
I must agree with a few other people posting here, this needs a sequel.
May the Grace of the Valar Protect You
Shire Folk
thsi was a great story! and i hate both of them so much!
thier needs to be another story where they get whats coming to them! XD
905474 its refreshing to know that fic like these are around.
i get tired of those scoots or RD are A). dead and friends give last sentiments b). one killed the other c). scootacide or rainbow suicides
This was freaking adorable.
This makes me want to cuddle scootaloo.
