(Rainbow Dash's POV)
20 years. 20 years since she's died. I'm at her grave now, with our friends. Rarity and Fluttershy and dating, Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle and engaged, and Pinkie Pie's married to Cheese Sandwich. Me? I haven't moved on from Applejack. I just can't. I love her too much. We all (not including Cheese Sandwich) and Uncle Spike came to visit her grave. I asked Uncle Spike to go. He stuck with me, and still is, during the mourning process. There hasn't been a day that's gone by that I haven't visited her grave and cried. I wear her hat every day, and give it the same amount of love as I gave her. Uncle Spike put a hand on my shoulder, squeezed it, and signaled to the girls to walk away.

(Surprise! Applejack's POV)
The rest of the girls walked away, Pinkie was wailing, Twilight and Sunset were trying to keep on a brave face for Dash, Fluttershy was constantly blowing her nose, and Rarity didn't even care that her mascara was getting all over her face. Rainbow Dash was still wearing my hat, and I sighed. Hoping it wouldn't scare her, I made myself visible. I tapped her shoulder gently. She turned, and saw me. She gasped, and hugged me tightly. I hugged her back, crying softly. It had been forever since she had seen me, and she was so happy. "AJ, I miss you. I miss your laugh, the way you never lie. I miss everything about you." I hugged her tightly.
"But Dash, I am always with you. I'm here, even if you can't see me. I love you, and will never leave your side. You cry constantly about me, refusing to move on. When you cry over my grave, even though you can't hear me or feel it, I'm always rubbing your back, whispering that it'll be okay. You know, you can go out with anyone now. I'd be happy for you."
"But you're the only girl for me, Applejack. I look forward to the day where I can be reunited with you forever. I love you." I felt myself start to fade.
"Dash, we don't have much time. Here, take this. Remember, I'll be with you always..." She was looking for me, but she couldn't see me anymore. She opened the box I gave her and she gasped. It was a diamond ring. She slid it on her ring finger, and I hugged her. I knew she could only feel a slight breeze, but she whispered "I love you too, baby."
She kissed my grave, and walked away. I knew she'd never move on from me, and I'll never moved on from her.
