You're hugging me really tightly. Don't think I can't hear your breathing, too. It's rapid. Aww, what happened? Did my cute girlfriend get a nightmare? … No? Well, what? I'm listening… however best I can at 4:00… … What? No, no, not that kind of 'what.' I mean… what makes you think I don't love you? What happened to all the dates we went on? The ice cream we ate, the clouds we relaxed on, the times after practice when we'd make out in secret without Spitfire's knowledge? Still need reassurance? How about this? ...Mmm…*mwah* Come here. My time to hug you now. Ahh… just droop. Relax. I got you. I'm not going to let anything happen to you, you awesome Wonderbolt hottie. Oh! I caught that. I know you smile when I say stuff like that. With that said, allow me to continue, you beautiful flower. Keep on letting me pet you like a cat, you purrfect adorable kitty. Ha ha ha! Sorry. Just slipped out. … You doubted that I love you? … You really doubted that you love me? Whoah. That's another matter. Look, I… ask myself the same question all the time. I have to. I always have to wonder if you're the one I should love for all eternity. And you should feel the same way with me! But at the same time, we need to make our relationship work out ourselves. We always need to work at it. Always. Look at me. Look-there we go. Let me gaze into your gorgeous eyes. Listen. I think soulmates… are whatever we create them to be. We had enough in common when we first met, but to keep ourselves together and not drift apart like normal friends, it requires us to work at it. And I'm not giving up on you, Rainbow. Never. Because? Well, because you're the mare that's made the biggest impact on me. You and I can soar through the clouds at the same speeds, and relax at our favorite places and eat the same foods while watching the same awesome movies. Together, we have something. There is no other pony I'd rather be with than you. Lie down. There we go. Head in my lap. I'll scratch your back… and kiss your face. I remember, when you did this to me, I nearly cried. No one had ever done something like that to me. I never thought that, while I treat a mare like my princess, she should treat me like a prince. Rainbow, you made me feel special like never before. I will never forget the way you make me feel. So I want to make you feel the same way. Gosh, this was always my fantasy before I met you. I always wanted to caress a girl as softly as possible, gently and with utmost care. Just for the sake of cuddling. Well, yeah. Heh heh. I did also thought of sex. But colts always think about that. I'm no special case. All I do is keep that drive behind me when I'm with you. I would never think of doing anything to upset you. Why am I being so liberal with this? Well… can I tell you a guy secret? Okay. Let me say… stallions are often so starved of appreciation or kind words that when anyone, and I mean anyone says something nice to us, we follow them around because what if they can give out more? And that's how we ruin relationships. We get clingy and annoying, and you start to want space. And when you get that space, we wonder what we did to get you to move away. It… doesn't really sink in. Yeah! Yeah, you get it! So… once we know how nice it is to have kind ponies who love you… the way you love me… we want to repay them with what makes us happy. By telling them just how wonderful and amazing they are. Mmm… …*mwah*  *peck* *peck* *peck* *peck* *peck* Ha ha ha ha! Didn't expect me to move to your collarbone, huh? Or your neck and cheek. Hmm, you like that? I knew you would, my little cutie. You're the cutest thing, Dash. Every little thing you do is magic. Every word you say is music. Your eyes shine brighter than Luna's creations. I don't need astrologers, musicians, or magicians. I find all of them in you. Yes, Rainbow. It's true. At any time of day, in any place, you give color to my world. You've filled me up when I've been starved. I cannot say just how much you've blessed my life. We'd be here all night, and the next night, and every night after that. Shh. Shh. It's okay. You don't have to say anything. I already know how you feel. You don't need words?--hmm! Mmm… *mwah*  ...Gosh, have I ever told you how good you are at kissing? Yeah, plenty. You're right. But I'll tell you. Your lips are the most kissable lips on the planet. How would I know? I mean, I haven't sampled other examples, of course, but I'd assume yours is… the best. Hmm, what do you say? Want me to kiss you on other parts of your body? Your cheeks just got a lot more colorful. Ha ha ha! You get even more cute when you blush like that! Yes you are! And besides, denying it makes you even cuter. Look at you, with your wrinkled rainbow bed head and your pouty lips and your scarlet cheeks. How could anyone not want you? I'm the luckiest stallion in Equestria to be with such a beautiful mare like you. Mmm…*mwah*  I got an idea. Let's squeeze the tiredness out of you. Right around your waist. And I'll caress you ever so lightly on your back… and your neck! That was quick! Even your legs! Right there on the inside, for just a moment. I hope you can trust me to not go too far. Because if you will, I can do this all night. ...Or, you know, until I collapse. Heh. Whichever comes first. Come on, let's see which one will win.
