How I met The Awesomness Mare Ever

View Online


Hey, my name is Rainbow Dash. The most awesome, most radical, most amazing, most spectacular, pony in all of Equestria. Most ponies call me the fastest flier too. Heck, I’ve even got a cool crown thingy to prove it!

Anyway. I thought I’d share a story, a story that will blow. Your. Mind. A story about how I met the most awesome mare ever, the mare of my dreams. A story about how I met, and ended up being with Twilight Sparkle.

Okay, so one day…I was just doing my usual activity, which is flying. Duh. And I was just soaring over Ponyville when I saw this crazy beautiful mare with a little purple dragon trotting around. I don’t know why I felt this way and I definitely, didn’t know how to explain how I felt… I just all of a sudden felt like my mind was going to explode of too much awesomeness!

She looked like she was looking for somepony, I had no bucking clue at the time. SO, being the nice pony I am. I flew over to her to see if she needed help. Little did I know…I kind of lost focus and flew right into her, and we both fell into a puddle of mud. She didn't look very happy about being covered in mud.

Twilight didn't say anything, but I told her I would help her out. Since I'm a weather pony and all, I just grabbed the nearest cloud, jumped out, let it rain down on her, and wash her off.

When all the rain was drained out of the cloud, I got down and was greeted with the most ungrateful face I have ever seen. Like sheesh! Don't you think she would be happy I helped her wash up? And besides, she looked pretty smoking with her mane wet like that.

So, after I realized she wasn't too happy about being wet, I decided to dry her off, but that just made it worst! She wasn't all wet anymore, but...

Ahaha, Oh Celestia! You should of seen her mane! It was complete chaos! But, anyway hoot, after that she started lecturing me about the clouds...

Anyway, the next part is really boring except for the part when I cleared the sky in ten-seconds flat, and blew her mind, showing her who's the boss.

After that, and the whole saving Equestria stuff...we were friends, but we weren't close. I always wanted to tell Twilight how I felt, but I could never think of a good way to tell her. To be completely honest, Twilight is the biggest egghead you’ll ever meet. Like, all she ever dose is stay in her Library and read a bunch of books. Seriously, who would want to do something so boring?

I would have never guessed that I would like a pony like her, but there wasn't something different about her from other eggheads...I guess.

Eventually, I thought of a pretty decent plan to tell her how I felt. It wasn't the best, but after so long of not knowing a idea, and even if I did think of one, they never were the best. So, this plan was practically gold at the time.

So here was my plan. My plan was to accidentally crash into the Library and tell her I just lost my concentration. Then from there, I would think up the rest on the way.

When I did unravel my genius plan, she totally bought it. “Oh that’s alright, Rainbow.”

She didn't even sound annoyed either. I didn't knock over, or break anything. But, I would be kind of annoyed if someone just crashed into my house...unless it was a Wonderbolt of something, that would pretty awesome, but anyway...
For Celestia’s sake, sometimes Twilight can be so blind. How could I loose my concentration? Flying is all I EVER concentrate on.

So anyway, she invited me to hang out and stuff. I was a little shocked that she would ask me if I wanted to hang with her. I wasn’t going to decline of course, buck no!

Sure it’s just a boring old Library with a bunch of books, but at least I would be able to hang with Twilight.

Other then the fact that I had a serious crush on her, she was my friend at the time and well…we never actually got to legit hang out with you know, just us. It kind of bugged me, since I would usually hang out with Fluttershy and all that but, only because we go way back to Flight camp.

I would hang out with everypony else. Heck, I would even be able to make time for Rarity. Just Twilight always had this tight schedule, and even if I did come over to the Library she would be all like,

“Sorry Rainbow, I have a lot of things to do…”

Then she would show me this long list of things that she had to do. Sometimes, I just thought it was a excuse to not chill with me.

Anyway, that afternoon…I thought Twilight would suggest studying with me or something. Even though she knows how much I hate studying. For some reason that’s what I thought though. But I was somewhat wrong. It was reading, but it was sort of a cool kind of reading, but it wass studying at the same time...but Twilight was the one that was studying.

Apparently, Twilight had had all these books that were written by Spitfire, about her experience as captain of the Wonderbolt’s, flying routines, and stuff like that. She told me that she never actually considered reading one of them by herself, and she thought that reading it with me would help her understand things more clearly. It would make sense, I am a pretty pro flier, expert actually.

So, Twilight read the book out loud so both of us could hear it. We were just going to read it in our heads, but I read too slow and whenever Twilight would finish a page, she would be stuck waiting for me to finish. I guess she got a little frustrated at how slow I read. Besides, I liked Twilight reading it out loud a lot more. It was kind of relaxing, just laying on my stomach beside her as she read with her sweet voice, with the occasional sound of her quill scratching at her piece of paper.

We weren’t laying very close to each other, but ever now and then I would scoot closer. At some point she noticed how close I was to her, which was only a inch. I swore I saw her blush. She asked why I was so close and being the smooth talker I am, I simply said,

“It’s a bit cold.”

Okay, well maybe I had to think of a pretty good reason to give her. But she bought it cause there was a blanket being laid over us with her magic. I scooted the last inch closer to her. Twilight was warm, and she was also really soft. I felt excited when our flanks were in contact with each other. Which was kind of giving Twilight the same reaction...by the looks of it at least.

She kind of made it hard not to notice. I could feel her heating up, and I saw her blushing as she continued reading. It was actually really...adorable.

Twilight continued reading. I just listened, and every now and then she would ask me a question about something. It was really shocking that she would ask ME about something. She was like twenty times smarter then me, or even more.

But, I was always glad to provide her some info.

After a few hours, we had sped through the whole book. I looked at the time, and it was a little late. I began to think that Twilight would kick me out so she could go to bed. But what shocked me was that, she asked if I wanted to sleep over.

I had heard about her last experience with sleepovers, and it didn’t end up too good. I said yes of course. A sleepover meant that I got to sleep, in Twilights house, in her room...That was pretty damn close.

Now, I didn’t want to hook up with her, if that’s what your thinking. I wanted to tell her how I felt. I wanted to let her know about the huge crush I had on her since I first met her.

Twilight may be able to tell if something bad is going to happen, but man... When it comes to other ponies feelings, she is as blind as…something that is blind. I don’t know. But, whenever me and Twilight would make some kind of contact, she would blush and kind of hide it. Like for example, when we laid under the blanket. THAT, was something I was able to tell.

Okay, anyway. Back to the sleepover.

Twilight and I decided to stay up for a little bit longer. We kind of just continued laying there on the floor for a few minutes, thinking about what to do. I decided it would be a good idea to tell Twilight how I felt, but then at the same time it didn’t. Luckily, Twilight made up my mind by suggesting she reads us a story. She asked me what kind of story we should read, and I thought about it.

I’m not one to know a lot of genres of books, mostly only romance and adventure. But then, I started thinking about how I was going to tell Twilight about my feelings for her. That’s when I thought about her reading us a romance novel. But, she would think that it would be weird of me to suggest romance. The one thing that most ponies thought I didn’t give much thought about.

But, how totally wrong they all were.

So, I suggested she read us her best romance story. She gave me a confused face, and I saw her beginning to smile. I presumed that she was about to laugh. But she didn’t. Twilight picked out a book from one of the shelves using her magic, and she read out the title. “Palomino and Chestnut”.

It sounded pretty lame, and it kind of was.

I seriously thought I was going to learn something, but all the story was about was…two ponies fall in the love the first day they meet, they get married like… the next day, Palomino kills her cousin cause he made fun of his friend or something, he’s banished, they can’t stand not being able to see each other, and when they think of this really stupid plan that involved a potion, they both end up dying. It was probably the most stupidest thing I’ve ever heard in my life.

When the book was finished, Twilight closed it and shook her head and told me how stupid she thought it was. I told her how much I agreed, and then…she asked me a question I wouldn’t have expected a mile away. Ok…maybe I would’ve, since we were reading a romance novel and all, then again...I didn't but, Twilight asked me if I had a crush on somepony.

I kind of looked at her, and of course I began to panic. I didn’t know what to say. “Yeah, I have a crush on you.” No, I couldn’t say that. It wouldn’t be as…special, and I wanted it to be special, ya know?

So, when I had been quiet for a least a whole minute, I told her I did. Twilight looked at me with a small smile, and asked me who. I knew this was the time I would have to tell her. I began to try and think about how I was going to say it, but nothing came to mind and I didn’t have all night to tell her. Then something came to mind, I wasn’t sure if it was the best thing I could do, so...

I turned my head to face Twilight completely, and I kissed her right smack on the lips.


I was scared that she would pull away, and freak out on me but to my shock…she kissed me back. We continued kissing, and man, was Twilight a good kisser. I wouldn’t have expected her to be, being a egghead and all, and from what I knew…she never actually been in a relationship.

After about a minute, we broke the kiss. Twilight was blushing, and I probably had the dopiest face ever. I looked at her and asked,

“Does that cover your question?”

Twilight just smiled, and nodded. I knew that she kissed me back and all, but I still wasn’t sure if she actually liked me back.

I asked her if she liked me back and, if we could go out and to much of my relief, she said yes to both questions.

That ended up being one of the best nights, I had had in a long time. We didn’t do anything, I just slept in her bed with her and we cuddled till we fell asleep, and in the morning I left. After that, me and her were in a pretty steady relationship.

We hang out at least once a day, but sometimes I have my weather duties...and other stuff. So I can't spend every waking minute with her...

Anyway, that’s how me and Twilight got together, and are still going strong now.

So, that's the end...but now I have to go over to Twilight's house, something about a experiment on, trolling?
