35 mares, 1 dragon, the competition of a lifetime, Applejack never thought she would end up in a Selection to win Prince Spike's heart much less actually wanting to see if she has a future with the dragon after all, for Spike he is going to have to...
Applejack: I'm tellin' ya, Spike that was no accident
They were in the gardens that afternoon
Spike frowned: But she was so sincere and she apologized
Applejack: I tell ya, I see Sunset every day and she is sneaky and competitive, sure she says
She mocked Sunset's voice
Applejack: I sure am looking forward to meeting the competition
Then she spoke in her normal voice
Applejack: But then comes the backstabbing, you can't trust that girl, I thought for sure you would have saw right through her at this point and sent her home
Spike gapped: Are you implying that I'm not smart enough to see past someone with ulterior motives
Applejack angerly: That's not what I'm sayin', I believe you to be very smart but sometimes even the smartest pony can be deceived by someone who won't stop at nothing until she gets what she wants
Spike angerly: Look, I'm sure to you Sunset is terrible but there's more to her then that
Applejack angerly: That's what she wants you to think
Spike angerly: That's enough
Applejack angerly: No, you need to hear this
Spike angerly: No, I don't, you forget, Applejack that I am a prince, for all intents and purposes I am free to make my own choice of choosing who my wife should be
Applejack scoffed: Well that explains why you were on that date with Lightning Dust, I guess that means our original agreement didn't matter to you so much
Spike angerly: What, you thought that I had to go to you and ask you who I can and cannot date
Applejack angerly: It sure sounded like it did at the time
Spike gnashed his teeth: Well you were mistaken
He started to go and turned his head to her firmly speaking
Spike firmly: You don't have to agree to my decisions, but you will abide by them, we'll talk again when you understand this
And with that he was gone, Applejack ran back to her room and landed on the bed holding the pillows close to her
Applejack thinking: No, you are not going to cry about this, let him date any mare he wants, sure he talks about having a soul mate but in the end maybe all he wants is a bedmate, guess Sunset was right about that, maybe that's why he kept her as long as he had
The tears were welling up inside her, but she wouldn't let them out, eventually she became too tired from bottling her emotions up that she fell asleep
