Today was the day Rainbow Dash returned from her first big Wonderbolts tour, and you couldn’t be prouder of her. As the doorknob turns, you catch a glimpse of a tired but exhilarated Rainbow Dash entering the living room. The excitement and exertion from the show was still all over her face, and she was still clad in her form-fitting Wonderbolt bodysuit that beautifully accentuated her pegasus form. “Hey babe,” you greet her, a loving smile lighting up your face. “You were amazing out there!” Rainbow Dash grins proudly and trots over towards you, her strong wings tucked neatly by her side. “Ha! I know, right?” she exclaims with a confident smirk. “Best. Performance. Ever!” As she stops before you, her heart pounding from her adrenaline-fueled adventure both in the sky and back on the ground, you teasingly reach out to boop her muzzle playfully. Rainbow Dash blushes at the gentle touch, her smile growing larger yet softer. “Heh, thanks, I bet I looked awesome up there, didn’t I?” she beams at you, her rose tinted eyes sparkling with pride. “You really did,” you assure her. “You always make me so proud to be your special someone,” you add, sincerity in your voice. Her blush deepens, and Rainbow Dash coyly rolls her eyes, but you can see she’s soaking up every word of praise. “Pssh, I guess it’s just part of being a Wonderbolt, y’know?” she shrugs, trying to coolly play down the compliment. “You’re only partially right, Dash,” you say, leaning in a little closer. “It’s not just being a Wonderbolt that makes you great. It’s you. It’s your determination, your talents, and the way you’re always pushing yourself to go beyond any limit. Being a Wonderbolt only amplifies what was already true about you.” A sudden silence envelops the room as the last syllable lingers, and Rainbow Dash searches your eyes, her gaze softening. “Thank you,” she whispers, her wings fluttering up ever so slightly - a sign of her vulnerability. You smile at her affectionately, letting her know you truly meant every word that passed your lips. “And you know what?” you ask, your finger finding her muzzle again for another gentle boop. “I will always be here to cheer you on, no matter what.” “I know you will,” Rainbow Dash replies, nuzzling your hand with her muzzle as a small, contented sigh escapes her. “And that means more to me than any Wonderbolt title ever could.” And as the two of you stand there in the soft, fading light of the day, basking in the warmth of each other’s presence, you couldn’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of love filling the room. Though the future held countless unknowns for both you and Rainbow Dash, it was in moments like these that you were certain, come what may, you would face it all together.
