As I flew home I was determined to get a good nights rest. After everything that had happened over the course of the last few days, I was glad that soon I'd be able to just clear my head and think on my routine.

I landed at my house, and it was already dark. I'd take Twilight's advice and not practice in the night. I'd rather just go to sleep, I was emotionally and physically exhausted from everything. I'd have a few chores to take care of before I was off to bed, the ones that needed to be done that is.

After if finished cleaning up a little bit, I walked into my room. My room wasn't the biggest thing ever, it was decently sized. I had some posters of the Wonderbolts on the wall, along with a Hay-Stackers poster, which was hard to get seeing as they were no longer a rock-band. It was a shade of blue with a red border on the top. I had a bed big enough to accommodate 2 people. Next to that was my dresser which had a mirror and brush on top of it. I wasn't big for make-up, it was a silly thing. I mean you dress up all fancy to go on this date, and he doesn't even notice. I saw it as time consuming, and I was all about speed.

Other than those my room was empty. I didn't see the need to fill it with anything else. It was perfect, it was home. I walked over to the mirror and looked at myself. I began to brush my mane. When I was finished with that, I crawled into bed. I had hung the biggest Wonderbolts poster on my ceiling. The reason being, is it inspired me everyday. As something that was real. No matter what went wrong all I had to do was look at this poster, and I'd feel better.

Saturday. I thought, now feeling as tired as I should have been. I'll tell him on Saturday. How I really feel about him. I'd decided in the last few minutes of my consciousness that I'd talk to Big Mac on Saturday, I'd do nothing but figure how to talk and then finally talk to him. I slowly shut my eyes. I'm so tired. Everything began to blurry. I barely managed to remember. My birthday is next Monday...

Darkness.

Sleep.

[Sweet Apple Acres, 8:30 a.m.]

I awoke this morning, ready for the day's work. Me and Big Mac had to buck the trees to get to the amount that we always this time of month. My brother and myself would be able to get it done before 3 today. Golly, there isn't going to be much work today. I wonder what I'll do. I walked over to my washroom, and began to brush the knots out of my mane. I may be western, but at least I know proper hygiene.

I began to walk downstairs. Gosh, Dash was really stressed out yesterday. I should at least ask Big Mac if she at least likes her. I walked over to the kitchen, and got out a pan. I began making eggs. I gotta tell ask him in the way so he doesn't figure out it's dash who liked him. Once the eggs were done, I went and woke up Applebloom, she needed to go to school today. I walked over to her room, and opened the door quietly. "Applebloom." I said softly.

She groaned a little. "Up 'n at 'em."

"Morning Applejack." She said softly.

"You gotta get ready for school today."

"Okay, I'll be out in a minute." I then left and went to finish preparing the meal. I got out some batter and began to make pancakes. I made a heaping plate of my special apple pancakes. I took the plate of pancakes and eggs, and set them on the table, along with plates, syrup, and glasses for milk. I went back upstairs to wake up Big Mac. Opening the door to his room, I said softly "Hey big bro, up 'n at 'em."

He turned over towards me, and replied with "Morning little sis, Ya'll ready for the bucking today?"

"Yeah, and if its like any other day we'll be done by three."

"Eeyup, well I'm gonna get ready. I'll be down in 5."

"Okay." as I closed his door. I walked back downstairs to see Applebloom groggy and at the table. I walked over to the fridge and retrieved the milk. I walked over and poured Applebloom a cup.

"Applejack, do I have to go to school?" She asked.

"Yes you do, youngin'. I want you to learn how to do something other than buck apple trees."

"Okay fine. You still remember that we're having the Cutie Mark Crusader's sleepover Friday, right?" She asked. Oh crap, that was this friday. I didn't feel like dealing with them tomorrow. But I have to, I already promised that I would let them stay over.

"Yes. No eat your breakfast, you don't want to be late to school."

"Okay." and with that she began to eat at plate of pancakes and eggs. I sat down myself, on the opposing side of her. Golly Applebloom, you're a smart kid. Why would you want to stay here and work like you older siblings?

Before she was done, Big Mac came down the stairs. "Morning Applebloom." He said, on the last step.

"Morning Big Mac." She replied after taking a drink of milk.

"Help yourself big brother, plenty to go around."

"Thank you Applejack." He said as he sat down and fixed himself a plate.

"Applebloom, you have all your stuff ready for school?" I asked her.

"Yes." She replied.

"Good, well you better be off if you want to get there on time." I told her.

She looked towards the clock "Golly, yer right Applejack." she walked over to pick up her bag by the door. "Bye, I'll see ya'll at 4." and with that Applebloom left. I looked over to Big Mac, who was just finishing eating. Man, he does eat fast. I got up and collected the plates, then walked over to the sink and began to clean them.

Once I was finished with that, Big Mac and myself finished chores that needed to be done before anything else. I went into Applebloom's room and made her bed, then walked up stairs to make mine.

When me and Big Mac were done, we walked outside and down the trail we had been the other day. We'd start applebucking together first, then we'd split up later. If I was going to ask him, it'd be in the time that we'd first start bucking.

"So we don't got much until the season's over." I said breaking the ice.

"Eeyup, just a few more acres."

"So, uh... what are you going to do on our off time big bro?"

"I don't know yet sis. I may go into town and get a job."

"You thinking about marrying?" It was a common question we asked each other.

"Eeyup." Straight forward, good old Big Mac.

"Any pony in mind?"

"Yes. What about you?" Jeez, I didn't expect him to say anything that quickly, I still wanted to ask him about who he liked.

"I...uh...yeah." That pony happened to be one of Rainbow Dash's idols. Soarin', one of the Wonderbolts. He is just so cute. "Um...Who is it that you want to marry?" If he tells me I have to tell him back. But its worth telling him a little secret, and helping out a friend.

"Uh...well," he looked a little nervous "Rainbow Dash." he finally stammered out. This is going to make Rainbow Dash probably the happiest pony in Equestria.

"Really? Well if it makes you feel any better, I have a crush on Soarin'." I told him, hoping he wouldn't be freaking out or anything.

"The one from the Wonderbolts? No kidding?" he said.

"Yeah, well we're here, lets leave all this personal stuff for later."

"Eeyup, lets get this done."

[Sweet Apple Acres, 1:30 p.m.]

Boy-o-boy, my back is killing me. Think that pushing buttons from dawn till dusk is hard, try kick a tree with your hind-legs. It's tiring, and it makes you sweat. It's what all stallions need to do once in their lifetime. Something was nagging at me more than my back though. Was it what I thought it was?

Its been at least 5 hours since I told her about my crush on Rainbow Dash. Why do I feel so weird about it? I began to place the barrels in the correct place so I could kick the tree. Maybe I should just talk to her about it. But what if Dash doesn't like me? I kicked, like all other times it was smooth, and the apples fell into the appropriate barrels. Well, I'm going to go that new club they opened over by the cake shop. Maybe Dash'll be there.

[Sky's over Ponyville, 2:00]

And as I come out of the loop, I should have more than enough speed to pull off a Sonic Rainboom. I thought as I was into my sixth figure 8 loop. I slowed down, and landed at my house to get a drink of water. 5 tries and not a single mess up. I've got this down.

As I got a drink I looked over at the calender, it was the 18th of August. Today, club KanterTrot would open. I've been planning on showing up to it for a time now. Going out and having fun at a club would be the perfect thing. I'd be able to relax and be myself. Heh, if I was lucky I'd find Big Mac there. But since when am I that lucky?

I walked back outside, I took off again. I have about 3 hours before I should get ready. The club doesn't open till 6. I should go through my routine a few more times. Tonight, is going to be a really good night.

[Author's Notes]

Allo allo. How is everyone doing? Anything interesting happen in your weekend so far? This was a switch over between Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Big Macintosh. Rainbow Dash in the beginning and end, AJ in the middle, and Big Mac directly after her if you were confused on that. Again thanks for the read. Any suggestions, or comments leave a review. Thank you all, enjoy your wonderful day.
