"Man, I wish the day was over already." Rainbow whined as she bucked clouds halfheartedly thinking about Applejack as she went. The beauty that mare had was almost too much to bare in Rainbow's eyes. She felt the sensation of being turned on again then shook her head. "No! I am not letting that happen now!" Another few moments of cloudless silence before Rainbow muttered to herself "I need to distract myself." Then flew down to the ground level to see what her friends were doing.
Rainbow found Pinkie Pie in the middle of town singing about smiling, but once she saw Rainbow, stopped and ran over to her.
"Hey Dashie!" She smiled and hugged Rainbow before Rainbow could stop her. "How's the whole getting Applejack pergenant before you turn back into a mare and lose the only chance at ever giving Applejack the family she has always wanted thing?" Rainbow blushed and felt a little panicky at the realization there were only two days left until they lost their chance. "Oops, sorry Rainbow, I didn't mean for that to come out that way." Pinkie Pie placed a hoove on Rainbow's shoulder then asked "Are you feeling okay?"
"Fine." Ash blurted "Never better, listen Pinkie, I've got to go." And took off without another word.
"Bye." Pinkie called after her, her mane deflating a little. Pinkie had missed hanging out with Rainbow since Rainbow and Applejack got married. They used to prank poines around town but since the wedding, Rainbow was always working or getting home to Applejack or planning something for Applejack. When she had apporoached Pinkie, asking her to help with the dinner, Pinkie had been delighted to help... But on the inside, she was dying. Sure she and Cheese Sandwich had started dating after he came back to help Pinkie with Applejack and Rainbow's wedding party, but she had always secretly liked Rainbow. And now that they were having a baby, she knew she wouldn't see Rainbow nearly as much as she saw her now. She trotted home alone then looked at the phone. She knew Cheese didn't like to be called and rathered talked face to face, but she needed to hear his voice and talk to him. She dailed the phone and waited.
"Hello?" He asked into the reciever. It had been a very long time she realized for she began to tear up at his voice.
"Hi." She choked out through her tears. "It's Pinkie." She managed before breaking down.
"Are you sure?" Cheese joked which caused Pinkie to snap back.
"That's not funny, Cheese!"
"Okay okay, I'm sorry." He cooed softly into the phone. There was a sniffling slience as Pinkie calmed down. "Hey, I hear there's a birthday near Ponyville, do you want me to stop by?" He offered, Pinkie nodded but he knew her answer. "Okay, I will be down there in a day or two."
"Okay." She mumbled then blew her nose.
"Please stop crying Pinkie, if you don't, you won't get to see the surprize I got you." That cheered her up and made her wonder.
"Oh, what is it?" She asked curiously, tears still on her face but her hair back to its normal bounciness.
"It's a surprize." Cheese tauted with a grin.
"Fine." Pinkie pouted.
"I'll see you soon, Pinkie." He promised, the way he said her name made her blush.
"Okay, I love you Cheese." She whispered in reply.
"Not as much as I love you." He smiled in reponse. They blew each other kisses before hanging. Now, with Pinkie in high spirits and with a purpose for preparing Cheese's arrival, Pinkie set to work cleaning and forgot all about her Rainbow Dash stained broken heart.
"Rainbow," Applejack said a little annoyed when Rainbow came up behind her and pecked at her neck. "I still have trees to buck." She nodded towards the last acre she needed to finish before the day was done.
"But they'll still be there-" Rainbow protested but Applejack put her hoove down.
"Not. Now." She growled then moved onto the next tree. Rainbow pouted then an idea popped in her head.
"Would you like some help?" She offered softly apporaching an untouched apple tree and lifted her legs in perparation to buck, but Applejack gave her a death stare that made her stop and hover away from the tree. "But it's going to take you forever if you do this alone." Rainbow added as Applejack bucked down another tree.
