Chapter 3 – A Date with Discord – Sleeping Over
Rainbow Dash flicked her mane; cascading a rainbow mane whisking a sweet scent through the air.
Discord smelled the sweet smell and smiled.
"What?"
"Your hair smells amazing."
"R-really?!" She asked with a blush.
"Yes, and not to mention how your hair compliments your figure..."
Rainbow's face turned a dark red. "Thanks Discord..." She said with a shy smile.
Discord smiled and put an elbow out for the mare to take. "Shall we Dashy my dear?"
She looked at Rarity. "Do I owe you anything?"
"Oh no, no, not at all." The Unicorn said with a bright smile.
Dash smiled and took the Draconequus's arm and left with him. "See ya Rarity."
"Ta ta!" She said with a wave. She immediately went back to working on dresses.
"So where're we goin' Dissy?"
"Dissy?"
"Yeah. I thought of a cute nickname for ya...seen as how I have one." She said with a bright smile.
Discord smiled. "I love it."
"Great!"
"Well Ms. Dash...I thought we'd go for a nice walk in the park with you, if you want to."
"I'd love to."
"Splendid...shall we?"
The mare nodded.
They walked to the park; getting a couple stares on the way, but neither of them cared. They smiled at each other.
"This is great." Rainbow Dash said with a sweet smile.
"It certainly is." The Draconequus said as he returned the sweet smile.
"Hey can I show you something?"
"Of course my dear."
"Cool!" She said before flying up and showing him a new trick she learned from the Wonderbolts.
"Wow...she certainly amazing...everything about her is amazing." The Draconequus thought as he watched the cyan mare fly through the sky.
The mare landed on the ground gracefully with a smile.
"That was amazing Rainbow."
"I know. I learned it from my team in the Wonderbolts." She said with a confident smirk.
An Earth pony filly trotted over to Rainbow Dash and Discord. "Wow Rainbow Dash! That trick was amazing. How long have u been training?"
"For a while now..." She said with a grin.
"Wow! Can I have your autograph please?"
"Sure you can!"
"Oh gosh thank you!"
"No problem kid." She said as she took the pencil from behind the filly's ear. "So who am I makin' this bad boy out to?"
"Lilli Ally."
"Alright. To Lilli Ally, always stick to your gut instinct – Rainbow Dash." She said with a smile.
"Gee thanks Rainbow Dash!" She said with a big smile.
"Sure thing kiddo. See ya round. I gotta get goin'."
"Aw..."
"Sorry, but I was here with a good friend of mine. I don't wanna leave 'em hangin'."
"Ok...see ya later Rainbow Dash." She said with a wave.
"See ya." She said trotting away.
"Shall we go my dear?"
"S-sure." She said with a slight blush.
Discord smiled and led her through the park.
They walked into Ponyville town square and spotted Twilight.
"Hey! Twilight!"
Twilight turned to see Dash and Discord. "Oh hey..."
Dashy and Discord walked over to the young princess. "What goes on?"
"Oh nothing really...I was just going to get more books for my library."
"Oh...need some help?"
"Uh...sure." She said with a smile.
"Cool." The cyan mare said as she and Discord followed their friend.
Twilight, Rainbow Dash, and Discord went to the old castle of the royal sisters and carried the books to Twilight's castle in Ponyville.
"Thanks for your help you two." She said with a smile.
"No problem Twi." Dashy said with a smile.
Twilight smiled.
"Well we've gotta go. Catch ya later!" Dash said waving.
"Bye guys."
Discord and Rainbow waved and left.
"So where to next Dissy?"
"How bout we go to your cloud home?"
"Sure."
They flew to Rainbow's cloud home and went inside.
"So..." Rainbow said with a sigh.
"It's late. You should get some rest. I understand that you have a flight practice tomorrow morning yes?"
Dash nodded. "That's right. I almost forgot. Thanks for reminding me."
"What are friends for?"
Rainbow smiles. "You can crash here if you want...again..."
"Sure thank you."
"No problem." She said before flying upstairs.
Discord stood in the living room; the silence killing him.
Dashy came back downstairs; seeing just how much the Draconequus hated the silence. "Where do you wanna sleep?"
"I-I can choose?!"
"If you want to...yeah."
"I'm not picky..."
"Well whatever you choose is fine by me...after all you're the guest here not me..."
"Well alrighty then..." He said before thinking. "What about in your room...with you?"
She blushed. "W-with me?"
Discord nodded.
"Okay...c'mon then." She said with a blush staining her face.
Discord followed the blushing mare.
They entered the mare's room; a silence in the air of the cloud home.
"S-so...uh...I-I guess I should get ready for bed then... you get c-comfy..."
Discord smiled and kissed the mare's forehead to ease her. "Thank you..."
After a couple minutes the rainbow-manned mare shyly walked into her room from her bathroom.
"Something wrong Dashy?"
"It's just that...I-I've never done this before...sleeping in the same bed as somepony else."
The Draconequus chuckled. "It's okay Rainbow Dash...I promise not to do anything...I'll sleep with my back against yours. How does that sound?"
The mare nodded. "Okay. Let's try it..." She said climbing into bed. He spine merged with Discord's; making a small and not detectable chill run up it. She shut her eyes and tried to go to sleep, but couldn't from the feeling of another back molded against hers. "This feels a little bit weird..." Dash though before Discord rolled over and draped his arms over her; making her face turn completely red.
Rainbow got no sleep that night...sleeping the way she did felt too weird for her to close her eyes and at least try.
Discord, however, had happily fallen asleep shortly after cuddling up to the Pegasus.
The sun rained into the widow; catching the eye of the Draconequus. He groaned from the brightness. "R-Rainbow...Rainbow Dash...wake up." He said shaking her slightly.
"I've been up..."
He heard the sleepiness in her voice. "How much sleep did u get?"
"Not really any..."
"W-was it me?"
"I dunno...something felt off and when I'm not completely comfy I can't sleep."
Discord started to feel a little guilty. "I-I'm sorry...and you have practice this afternoon..."
The mare's pink eyes widened. "Oh my gosh! You're right!" She said as she jumped out of bed.
Discord watched her as she ran around the room frantically trying to get ready. He saw how face was the meaning of distress.
"I-I'm sorry...I gotta go! I'll catch up with you later."
"O-ok...don't do anything too dangerous."
"Yeah I know..." She said flying out kinda sounding a bit cranky.
Discord did some errands for Dashy while she was at practice.
While a practice, Dashy watched and waited for her queue to fly in with the rest of the Wonderbolts. "That's it..." She thought before soaring into the air and flying up between Spitfire and Soarin'.
They performed their routine just as they practiced before, but this time; was different; Rainbow got light headed and landed on a nearby cloud.
Soarin saw he land and flew to her; his face full of worry. "Rainbow? Are you alright? You've never landed in the middle of practice. What's wrong?"
"I...I-I'm sorry Soarin...I'm just a little light headed and tired is all..."
"Did you get ANY sleep last night?"
Rainbow shook her head. "Nope."
"Dashy...c'mere." He said taking her under his wing and flying her to solid ground.
Spitfire stopped and flew down. "Dash. What in Equestria is up with you?"
Soarin looked at her. "She barely got any sleep last night and became light headed. She'll be fine. I'll take her home..."
"H-home?!" Rainbow squeaked.
Soarin sighed. "Yes. We can't have you like this for the performance a couple weeks from today. I want you to be fully rested for next week. Okay?"
Rainbow sighed; looking totally disappointed with herself. "Yeah...sure..."
"Did you need somepony to stay with you?"
She nodded. "Yes please." She said looking a little sad, but mostly tired. She needed some time away from Discord for a while, so being with Soarin should be much better for a change.
Soarin stood with her to keep her balanced.
Dashy stumbled a bit; only to be caught by her stallion comrade. She looked at him. "T-thanks."
The stallion smiled. "It's no trouble. C'mon...let's get you home..."
"R-right..." She stuttered.
Soarin flew the cyan mare home; keeping her from falling every now and again.
They landed at her door.
Rainbow opened the door and walked inside with Soarin.
"Why don't you rest on the couch and I'm make some lunch for ya."
She nodded. "Sure." She said before flopping onto her couch.
Soarin heard a thump and looked over at the couch; only to see Dashy half asleep. He smiled and made a sandwich with carrots on the side for her. He walked into her living room with the plate and put it on her coffee table. He sat next to where her head rested on the end of the couch and smiled at the sight of her sleeping so soundly. "She looks so tired. I wonder why she didn't get any sleep." He thought as he looked around. He stood and went to go upstairs when he heard a little whimpering voice.
"Dissy...don't leave me..."
Soaring walked back to her and saw that she was crying in her sleep. "Dashy?"
Rainbow sprung up with a scream.
Soarin immediately hugged her.
"Soarin...I don't want to lose him..."
"I know...I know. You won't. If he loves you he'll never leave you."
She sniffled. "Ya think so?"
"I know so..."
"I should go..."
"W-why? Not you too..."
"Huh?"
She hugged him tighter. "Please...stay. At least until he gets back?"
"Ok."
"Thank you..."
