Applejack — Me and Rarity got somethin to tell y’all…

We’ve been friends for a several years now. Even through all the ups and downs, through all the laughin and the fightin, we still found a way to stick together.

But I think for a long while now, we been growin a lot together (pardon the pun). I’m pretty sure everyone around us saw what was happenin, and I guess we did too in a way, but I don’t think either of us were ready to do anything about it just yet. Maybe we were waitin to see what would happen, or maybe we were scared of rejection, or somethin like that.

It certainly didn’t help to hear way too many people talkin about it so much. Of course, bein the stubborn type, it just made me dig my heels into the ground and refuse to budge. But still, I couldn’t really do anything about these feelins and thoughts I had about her. I started to realize that maybe that I was just waitin around for too long. The longer I waited, the longer I felt like I was lyin to myself… and to her.

So, I decided I needed to do something about it… as soon as I could bring myself to do it. I ain’t gonna lie, it took me quite a bit of time to actually work up the nerve!

But eventually on Christmas Day, I forced myself to stop by Rarity’s. I told her how I felt, and then she told me the same. So, now-

Rarity — WE’RE A COUPLE!!!! Sorry, darling. I couldn’t wait.

Applejack — Ha, that’s all fine, sugarcube.
