Rainbow's First Date

Rarity gives Rainbow Dash a bath and a makeover after setting her up on a date.

Rarity sets Rainbow Dash on a date with the boy she likes. Because Rainbow thinks he's only into girly girls, Rarity gives her a makeover. Or tries to, but she discovers Rainbow doesn't wash often, so first she has to give her a bath!

Contains: Olfactophilia, soap/washing, butt scrubbing, farts, and light, non-descriptive watersports. None of these are present in the makeover chapter, nor is nudity in any of them. I'd advise against reading this story if the last two fetishes are a turn-off for you, but I don't think it's enough for a Porn tag. It's actually more meant to illustrate how "dirty" Rainbow Dash is in this story.

This story started out as an RP I did (on a different site, of course) with OtakuBrony47. So, credit to him as co-author with me. I was Rainbow and he was Rarity. This particular one was so fun and had enough of a story to it that I wanted to adapt it into a fanfic, and he said he'd like to see it. I did make a few changes but he's fine with that. I hope he enjoys this story!

I know the scenario's pretty stretchy, she's almost certainly not really like this in canon, nor do I even headcanon that she is. To the point that I gave it an Alt. Universe tag. So, don't take too seriously.

Dashie Needs a Bath

Rainbow Dash was relaxing on her bed after a game of soccer and a long race on a hot summer day. She was wearing her usual white shirt, blue vest, pink and white miniskirt, and black compression shorts.

She was thinking about how satisfying it had been to win both events, and how refreshing her bottle of cider had been after sweating so much in the summer heat, when she heard a knock on her door.

"Come in," she said.

Rarity burst into the room, wearing her usual light blue shirt and purple skirt, carrying a duffle bag and a clothesline of dresses. "Surprise!"

"Hi Rarity," said Rainbow Dash. "What's in the bag?"

"Congratulations on winning your soccer match and your race."

"It was pretty easy, considering how awesome I am!"

"As a little victory present, I set you up on a date with Cherry Fizzy at sunset!"

"You WHAT?" Cherry Fizzy was the boy Rainbow Dash had a crush on. She thought he was really cute, but was afraid to talk to him because she was sure he only liked "girly" girls.

"Why would you do that? I told you he's probably not into me!"

"He will be once I give you a MAKEOVER!" She opened the bag to reveal several makeover accessories, such as blush and nail polish.

"No thanks. I SO don't do makeovers."

"If you do, Cherry Fizzy is sure to like you!"

"I'm not even that into him anyway."

"But you are! I can tell! Please give it a chance! If he really does only like girly girls, you don't have a chance as you are now."

"Fine." Rainbow sat down on the ground.

"Splendid! First I shall comb these knots out of your hair."

As Rarity started to brush Rainbow's hair, she stopped, noticing two things. The first was that Rainbow's hair felt very dirty and oily. The second was a foul odor.

"Ugh!" Rarity sniffed to confirm her suspicions. "Your hair is greasy, and you smell... horrible! Didn't you shower after your games?"

"I don't wash much," said Rainbow Dash.

"You don't... I beg your pardon? Don't... wash much? You don't... Are you out of your... When was the last time you showered?"

"Let me think." Rainbow put her hand on her chin for a few seconds. "I can't remember. At LEAST not for a week. No... almost two."

"Are you SERIOUS? That's disgusting! No wonder you smell so bad!"

Rainbow sniffed her armpit. "It's not that bad."

"I beg to differ!" said Rarity. "If you go and see Cherry Fizzy smelling like that, he could faint! I have never smelled anything so foul!"

"Well, you'll have to get used to it if you're gonna give me a makeover."

Rarity stormed out of the room. Rainbow patiently sat where she was. In a few seconds, she could hear the water running in the bathroom. She figured Rarity was washing her hands after handling her hair. Rarity could be so prissy sometimes. Did washing only two or three times a month REALLY make her hair that greasy?

Then, Rarity came back into the room and picked out a bottle from her duffle bag.

"What are you doing?" Rainbow Dash was starting to get a little nervous.

Without warning, Rarity picked up Rainbow Dash by the arms and dragged her into the bathroom. Once inside, Rainbow Dash could see the bathtub was full of water and soap suds.

"Rarity! Let me go! I don't wanna take a bath!" Rainbow Dash struggled against Rarity, but Rarity kept a firm grip.

"Rule number one about being a girly girl: Always smell clean."

"Can't we do the makeover without the bath?" Rainbow Dash whined.

"Don't you want to look cute and proper for Cherry Fizzy?"

"Well, yes, but..."

"Then... BATH TIME!"

Rarity tossed Rainbow Dash into the tub with a splash. Rainbow yelped as her dirty, smelly outfit was soaked. She splashed around in the tub. She could hardly believe Rarity was giving her a bath now.

Rarity flinched as Rainbow splashed her a bit. But, she giggled at the sight of her sporty, tomboy friend panicking in the water. "Oh come on darling, it won't be that bad."

"All right, you got me in the tub. I'll just dry off and you can give me my makeover."

Rainbow started to stand up, but Rarity got her back into a sitting position.

"Oh, THIS is your makeover now!" Rarity held up the bottle of shampoo and showed Rainbow the label. It was a bottle of Philosophy brand Flirty Girl Shampoo.

Rainbow splashed around more. "I can do that myself!"

Rarity submerged Rainbow Dash's head under the bath, soaking her hair and top half completely. Then she dumped a generous amount of shampoo on Rainbow's hair.

"Of course you can, darling. But I can do better."

Rainbow Dash groaned as Rarity washed her hair with shampoo.

"Does your head itch anywhere?" said Rarity as she rubbed up a mountain of suds on Rainbow's oily hair.

"It kind of feels itchy everywhere." Rainbow Dash instantly regretted saying this, because she knew it meant more scrubbing.

"I'm not surprised! This is what happens when you don't wash! Rule number one about being a girly girl: You must take bubble baths or showers EVERY DAY!"

"EVERY day? That's kind of a lot."

"That's how we stay clean and smell good. And I think you have dandruff too!"

"So that's why it's itchy."

"You poor thing. Good thing I decided to give you a good washing." Once Rarity was done lathering Rainbow's oily hair, she took the shower head and rinsed her of all the shampoo.

"So, washing my hair keeps my head from getting itchy with dandruff."

"And depending on what shampoo you use, it can also make your head shiny, soft, and clean!" said Rarity with a smile.

"This... actually doesn't sound that bad now." Rainbow was starting to like the idea of washing her hair more often.

"And, if for some reason bathing or showering is impossible, there is always dry shampoo."

"All right, my hair's clean. Is bathtime over?"

"Not yet. I need to scrub the rest of you."

"Wasn't it enough to get me into the soapy water?"

Rarity lifted Rainbow Dash's arm and sniffed her armpit. She recoiled in disgust. "I'm afraid not."

"Do I HAVE to smell really clean?" Rainbow Dash whined.

"Do you want Cherry Fizzy to think you're the girly girl for him or not?"

Rainbow Dash blushed a little. "Fine, let's get this over with."

Rarity squirted some of her shampoo on a bath poof and started frantically scrubbing Rainbow Dash's left armpit. She noticed there wasn't any body soap near the bathtub. "Do you even use soap on the rare occasion that you wash?"

"Nope."

"When this makeover is done I am getting you a bottle of soap for all your future showers."

"Is it really necessary?"

"Darling, you simply need soap to truly be clean after a shower."

"Whatever."

"You'll be surprised at how cute you look once you're dried."

Rainbow blushed a little.

"Scrub a dub dub, scrub your friend in the tub," Rarity started to sing.

Then, bubbles appeared in the water around Rainbow Dash. She chuckled a little, finding this to be funny.

Rarity stopped scrubbing immediately. She sniffed a little. "Did... did you just..."

"Yeah," Rainbow said unabashedly. "So what?"

Annoyed, and with an unamused look on her face, Rarity poured more of her shampoo on her sponge and bent Rainbow Dash down on all fours. "All right, let's clean that dirty rump of yours!"

"What?"

"You heard me!" Rarity lifted Rainbow Dash's skirt and started rubbing her butt vigorously with her sponge, covering it and her skintight shorts with suds in a matter of seconds.

"Hey! Stop that!" Rainbow blushed beet red.

Rarity just scrubbed harder, engulfing Rainbow's rear end in soap bubbles completely. "Rule number two!" she said in a very annoyed voice. "Girly girls don't... toot!"

"I can't help it. We all fart. Are you gonna tell me you've never farted?"

"Well you must learn to control it! Hold it in around others! And when you do, preferably do it silently. That's the ladylike way of... breaking wind."

"All right, I'll hold it in around everyone! Just stop scrubbing my butt!"

Rarity stopped, and then resumed scrubbing Rainbow Dash's armpit. Once she was sure this armpit was clean, she started washing her right armpit.

"Thank Celestia that's over!" said Rainbow Dash. "It was just one fart! It couldn't have made my butt smell THAT bad."

"It smelt bad before you farted," chuckled Rarity.

"Oh." Rainbow blushed again. "Did it... smell as bad as my armpits?"

"Honestly, as foul as your behind most certainly was, I think it smelled better than your armpits."

Rainbow Dash stayed in her position as Rarity continued to scrub her armpit until she could smell nothing but soap. Then she washed her back and her sides, which together didn't take as long as her armpits or even her butt.

"Now for your feet," said Rarity.

Rainbow Dash got back into a sitting position and lifted her feet to rest on the side of the tub.

"Ugh, your feet smell just as bad as your armpits!" said Rarity, wincing at the smell.

"Just don't scrub too hard. I'm really ticklish."

Rarity nodded, and scrubbed Rainbow Dash's feet as gently as she could, rubbing up a lot of suds. Despite how gently Rarity was washing her feet, Rainbow couldn't help but laugh and splash hard about in the tub, splashing water all over Rarity.

"Aah!" cried Rarity. "You're getting me all wet, Rainbow Splash!"

"I can't help it! HAHAHAHAHA! I know you're doing your best HAHAHAHAHAHA but it still really tickles! HAHAHAHAHA!"

By the time Rarity finished, she was as wet as Rainbow Dash. She rinsed Rainbow Dash off again with the shower head.

"Am I all clean now?" said Rainbow Dash. Part of her had secretly enjoyed this but she couldn't wait for it to be over.

"As clean as you'll ever be," said Rarity.

"Ahhhhhhhh," Rainbow Dash sighed.

"You really enjoyed that bath, didn't you?"

"No, I just peed in the tub."

"Ugh!" Rarity recoiled. "That is BEYOND disgusting! Rule number three! Girly girls do NOT urinate on themselves under ANY circumstances!"

"So I pee in the bath, shower, and outside sometimes. It's not like I go in my shorts! Well, I kind of did here, but I'm in the water so does it really matter?"

"Yes it does! I shall have to wash you again!"

Rarity pulled the plug and let the yellow-tinted water go down the drain. Then she refilled the tub and washed Rainbow Dash again, especially her lower half, scrubbing harder than before.

Once Rarity rinsed Rainbow Dash and declared her clean again, Rainbow Dash pulled the plug in the tub and stood up. She was dripping wet, but perfectly clean without a bad smell on her.

Rarity found some towels and patted Rainbow Dash dry. She did the same to herself, drying and combing her hair.

"You're washed! You're dried! Now let’s you primed and glowing with pride!" Rarity exclaimed.

The Makeover

"So, how does this go?" said Rainbow Dash.

"First I apply conditioner, as well as a bit of face cream and moisturizer," said Rarity. She gently leaned Rainbow Dash toward the sink and poured some conditioner into her still-damp hair. "This will make your hair soft and shiny. WITHOUT making it oily."

Rainbow had to admit to herself, she liked the feeling of the conditioner being rubbed onto her hair.

"You really think Cherry Fizzy is going to like me once I'm a girly girl?"

"You said yourself he likes them, right?"

"Yeah. Well, I think so. I'm just so nervous about this date."

"Don't be. When he sees you with your shiny, freshly washed hair, in one of my beautiful dresses, he's going to be bending over backwards for you!"

Rainbow felt a little reassured as Rarity finished applying the conditioner.

"Now then, we'll let that sit on your hair for a bit, while I apply some face cream."

Rainbow closed her eyes as Rarity applied the cream to her face. Leaving room for her to open her eyes.

"This will clean out your pores and leave you wrinkle-free."

"How long does this stuff have to be on for?"

"10 minutes. Same for your conditioner." Rarity pulled out a nail file and various vials of nail polish. "In the meantime, pick your favorite."

"All right... this one." Rainbow pointed at the rainbow nail polish.

Rarity giggled. "Good choice." She filed Rainbow's nails first, individually, making sure they were nice and even.

"You really know your makeover stuff, don't you?"

"It's just my talent." Rarity opened the vial of nail polish, dipped the brush in, and began to paint Rainbow's nails. Rainbow looked at each fingernail as it became rainbow-colored. She had to admit, this did look pretty cool. Once Rarity was done, she rinsed Rainbow's face and hair of the cream and conditioner, drying her off with a small hand towel.

Rainbow Dash looked in the mirror. Did the cream really make her more beautiful? Her hair did seem to be shinier after the conditioner.

"Now, we dry your hair and start brushing it." Rarity took out a blow dryer, set it to medium speed, and began blowing Rainbow's hair with cool air.

Rainbow liked this feeling. It reminded her of the wind blowing against her hair when she ran. Except it felt nicer now when her hair wasn't so greasy.

Rarity gently ran her fingers across Rainbow's hair, making sure there wasn't a single speck of excess water. "When blow drying your hair, always use cool air. Hot air can damage it."

"I'll keep that in mind. I might have to get my own blow dryer after this."

Rarity gave Rainbow Dash a wink and finished blow drying. Then she took a brush and brushed Rainbow's hair in slow, downward strokes, making sure to untangle any knots in her hair, without tugging at her scalp. When Rarity finished, Rainbow ran her hand along her hair and was surprised at how clean and soft it felt.

"Now that your hair is all soft and clean, let's go pick out some dresses!"

Rarity led Rainbow Dash into her room, where the clothesline of dresses stood. Rarity showed off each of the dresses, getting more excited with each one.

"What do you think of this one?" she said, holding out a pink dress. It was not very puffy, but it looked fancy and very feminine.

"Yeah, let's go with that one."

"Rainbow Dash! I had no idea you liked pink!" Rarity giggled.

"Well, it'll make me seem like a really girly girl."

Rarity squealed and gave Rainbow a hug. "Yes! Yes it does! Oh, you're finally learning!"

Rainbow had Rarity stand outside her bedroom door, closed it, and changed out of her wet outfit into the dress. Then she opened the door for Rarity to come in.

"Rainbow Dash, you look simply GORGEOUS!" said Rarity, showing Rainbow her reflection in the mirror. Then she handed her a pair of matching elbow length pink silk gloves. "Here. These go with the dress."

Rainbow Dash put the gloves on.

"Perfect. Now, let me put on the matching heels!"

Rainbow Dash raised her feet to let Rarity put on a pair of pink high heels.

"Try walking around in them a bit," said Rarity, who was sure Rainbow had never worn shoes like these in her life.

Rainbow started to walk around the room, but had a hard time keeping her balance with them and fell on her butt. She giggled nervously, knowing it wasn't very graceful.

"Try again," said Rarity. "Try to breathe slowly, and keep your back straight."

Rainbow got back up and started walking around again. She didn't fall again, and pretty soon she got the hang of it.

"There you go!" cheered Rarity. "Now, take a seat next to me. I want to style your hair and add some accessories."

Rainbow sat next to Rarity on her bed. A part of her was almost looking forward to this.

"Which of these do you like better?" Rarity showed Rainbow the accessories, consisting of two flowers (one white, one pink), a rainbow-colored headband with a cloud in it, a silver tiara, and hair glitter.

"That one." Rainbow pointed at the rainbow headband. It was hard for her to not choose something rainbow.

"I had a feeling you'd pick that." Rarity set the hairband down and started to brush Rainbow's hair, carefully styling it. "I'll do my best to make it to your liking, darling." She brushed out the frizz from the blow drying, and tied Rainbow's hair into a ponytail as she brushed the tips. "Now, do you want your bangs to be straight, or to one side? Or parted?"

"To one side, I guess."

Rarity nodded, and brushed Rainbow's bangs to one side.

"There! All done." Rarity handed Rainbow Dash a mirror so she could see her hard work.

"Not bad," said Rainbow as she looked at herself in the mirror. "I mean, not quite my style, but I'm sure he'll like it."

"I'm sure he will," said Rarity as she placed the hairband onto Rainbow's head. "You look really cute, Rainbow Dash."

"Am I ready now?"

Rarity applied blush to Rainbow's face, and with a quick spray of perfume, she nodded. "Yes. Now, it's almost sunset. Go get him!"

"Thank you for doing this." Rainbow stood up and walked out the door.

"Good luck, Dashie!" said Rarity. She watched as Rainbow left, and teared up a bit. "I did such a good job."

The Date

View Online

Rainbow Dash found Cherry Fizzy sitting at the table of the fancy restaurant. She walked as gracefully as she could and sat down next to him.

"Um... hi." She blushed a little.

Cherry looked up at her with surprise. "Rainbow Dash? Is that you?"

"The one and only. I took a long bath and got a big makeover from Rarity for the occasion."

"Oh wow... I hardly recognize you," he said nervously. "I know it's customary to dress formal, but I wasn't expecting you to go all out!"

"I figured you only liked girly girls like Rarity, so I became one just for you."

"Wow," he said, blushing from shyness. "I didn't think you liked me so much that you'd change who you are."

"Well, I needed some persuasion from Rarity, but I know I didn't have a chance with you the way I was. All tomboyish and unladylike, not to mention grungy and smelly."

"Really? You didn't have to do that. I honestly didn't think I had a chance with you," Cherry said with a smile and a laugh.

"What? YOU thought you didn't have a chance with ME?"

"Yeah! I really liked you, but... I was afraid to talk to you because I thought you only liked sporty guys."

"Just cause I'm an athlete doesn't mean I only like sporty guys. I always thought you were cute."

"Hahaha, how about that? And after I went through all that effort to wear our school team's jersey under my tuxedo." He unbuttoned his tuxedo shirt to show Rainbow the jersey.

"And I guess I went through that whole makeover for nothing. Are you saying you liked me the way I was?"

"Yeah. I always thought it was kind of cool. And I have more of a thing for tomboys." He sniffed. "How long did you have to wash to get the smell out?"

"I'd rather not talk about it." Rainbow Dash laughed nervously.

Then, the waiter arrived. "Good evening," he said as he handed them their menus, and explained the specials of the restaurant.

"I'll have a macaroni salad," said Rainbow Dash.

"Wonderful, madam. And for you, sir?"

Cherry looked at the menu for a while. "I'll have a philly cheesesteak sandwich."

"Wonderful. What would you like to drink?"

"I'll have a glass of cider," said Rainbow Dash.

"Me too," said Cherry. He and Rainbow shared a glance.

"Wonderful," the waiter said again, and he walked away.

Rainbow resumed her conversation with Cherry. "Did... the smell ever bother you?"

"I think it made me like you even more, to tell you the truth. I don't know how to explain it. I guess I have a thing for dirty girls as much as tomboys, and you fit both of those."

"So I don't have to be a girly girl to be with you."

"Not even a little bit."

"I'll still wash my hair better than before, so it's not too greasy for you. Rarity said something about dry shampoo. Maybe I could use it."

"Sure. It does look kind of nice."

"You don't mind if I... fart in front of you, do you?"

"Not at all. I see you fart all the time at your soccer games when you think no one's looking."

"Really?" Rainbow blushed a little. Though she was normally unashamed of farting, she hadn't realized the boy she liked had seen her fart so often already. But, now she knew she didn't have to be ashamed of it.

The waiter stopped by to set their glasses of cider on the table. As soon as he was out of sight, Rainbow lifted her leg.

BBBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRT!

Rainbow sighed in relief, and chuckled not only because she thought farts were funny, but because of how unusual it must look for a girl who looked as feminine as she did right now to do something so unladylike.

"Nice one, Dashie," said Cherry Fizzy, fanning the air with his hand, though he didn't really mind the smell. He could understand the irony as well.

"I've been holding this in since I came into the building," said Rainbow when she was done laughing. "Rarity said it's unladylike, but I don't have to be like that anymore!"

Cherry nodded and gave her a playful smirk.

By the time the waiter arrived with the food, the smell was gone. Cherry started eating his sandwich, and Rainbow started eating her macaroni rather messily, getting bits of sauce on her dress.

"Hey... I'm glad I'm here with you," said Cherry, blushing.

"Me too," said Rainbow.

...

After dinner, they went to the park and sat on the grass together. Rainbow's dress had slight stains on it from eating her dinner and dessert messily, and she was barefoot because she had removed her high heels. By now the sun had set.

"So, are you gonna tell me the story of how you got your bath?" said Cherry.

"No thanks." Rainbow Dash let out another loud fart, and chuckled.

"I promise I won't tell anyone."

"Well... All right. Rarity started giving me my makeover by trying to brush all the knots out of my hair..."

Rainbow told Cherry everything about her bath, blushing at the part where Rarity scrubbed her butt for farting in the tub, but Cherry seemed to like it, so she felt less embarrassed about it. At least around him.

"...and then she washed my feet. By the end of that she was as wet as I was cause I was splashing so hard from her tickling my feet."

"Oh, like... this?" Cherry started to tickle Rainbow's bare feet with his fingers.

"Hahahahahaha! Stop! I'm really ticklish! Hahahahahahaha!"

Cherry tickled harder. He paused to let Rainbow catch her breath, then started tickling again. Rainbow laughed harder, trying to flail her legs but he kept his fingers on them and tickled relentlessly.

"STOP!" Rainbow laughed. "I'M GONNA PEE! HAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Cherry continued to tickle, and Rainbow continued to laugh and tell him to stop. Rainbow laughed so hard she peed in her dress. But Cherry kept tickling her for nearly half a minute after.

"Did you like that?" said Cherry once he stopped.

Rainbow was panting, and took a moment to catch her breath as she sat back up. "I loved it!" She looked down and blushed profusely. "I told you..."

"I don't mind. But if you do, we can go back to your house so you can change."

"That won't be necessary. If you really don't mind, I'll stay like this for the rest of the night."

"Sounds good. Now, you were just telling me how Rarity tickled your feet."

"Right."

She finished recounting her story of her bath and makeover. By the time she was finished, the stars were out.

"Rarity's gonna be SO disappointed when I tell her the makeover was all for nothing," said Rainbow Dash. "She'll also be disgusted when I stop washing as much, but we were friends before she washed me, so I'm sure she won't stay mad. But when I do wash, I'll use shampoo for my hair. It feels so much better that way."

They sat next to each other and looked at the stars. Cherry Fizzy put his arm around Rainbow Dash, and she leaned her head against him.

He sniffed her. "I can't wait till you have your old smell back," he said.

Rainbow Dash farted loudly. "This good enough for now?"

They laughed.

Aftermath

The next day, Rainbow Dash went to school in her usual outfit, which had dried since her bath. She was at her locker when Rarity noticed her and ran over to her.

"Hi Rarity," said Rainbow Dash.

"So, how did it go?" said Rarity excitedly.

"It was awesome! Turns out he liked me the way I was!"

Rarity was surprised. "Wow... really?" she said, feeling a mixture of joy and disappointment.

"Yeah," said Rainbow. "I mean, don’t get me wrong. I really appreciate the makeover and everything. It was my own fault for assuming he was only into girly girls. He actually thought I wouldn’t like HIM because he thought I was only into sporty guys."

"Haha, isn't that funny," said Rarity awkwardly.

"Yeah. He actually liked me better with the smell, cause he's into girls like that too. But he likes my hair better not greasy, so I'll wash my hair more often in the future."

"Well... that's great, Dashie... I'm SO happy for the two of you..."

"I know the makeover was all for nothing, but thanks anyway. I know you put a lot of effort into that."

"Oh, sure... n-no problem... glad to know things worked out in the end..." Rarity twitched a bit as she forced a smile. She still liked Rainbow even if she was going to return to her dirty ways, and didn't want her to know how disappointed she was.

Rainbow smiled and left for class. Once she was out of sight, Rarity frowned.

"Oh great!" she scoffed. "I wasted $530 worth of dresses and makeover products for nothing!"
