chapter 2

Arriving at Sweet Apple Acres, Braeburn is nearly knocked off his hooves, 

"Uncle Braeburn!"  

Applebloom shouted joyfully as she ran to hug him, Sweetie belle, and Scootaloo walking up behind her, Soarin chuckled, 

"Uncle braeburn huh?"

He asked cocking his eyebrow at the earthpony hugging the little red-maned filly, 

"Ahm not truly her uncle in truth we're jus' cousins Ah'm just old enought ta be considered her uncle."

Braeburn replied turning his attention back to apple bloom. As the two siblings chit-chatted Scootaloo nervously approached Soarin, 

"U-uhm excuse me sir aren't you Soarin from the Wonderbolts?" she asked with a shaky voice, 

Soarin realizing how nervous the orange pegasus was smiled at her, 

"Yep, that'd be me, it's a pleasure to meet you." 

He replied grasping her hoof and shaking it. Scootaloo looked as if she was gonna faint on the spot before letting out a squeal to end all squeals, 

"I am never washing this hoof again!"

She burst out in excitement not only did she meet a wonderbolt she shook his hoof

"Oh RD will be so jealous!"

She thought to herself. 

"Excuse me"

Sweetie Belle shouted and everyone shut up and looked at the little unicorn, 

"Can someone please explain why and how mr. Braeburn knows Soarin?"

She asked looking absolutely confused and flustered. Just as she asked Braeburn burst out laughing as Soarin, and Applebloom just smiled knowingly, 

"What's so funny?" 

Sweetie Belle asked, frowning in annoyance. Braeburn finally calmed his laughter before smiling apologetically at Sweetie, 

"Ah'm sorry Sweetie belle Ah jus' thought Applebloom told ya'll, well ya see me, an' Soar are datin'." 

He chuckled as Soarin nuzzled his chin, and draped a wing over his shoulder. Sweetie just stood there mouth agape as her brain tried to understand what she was hearing, 

"Y-You...a-and h-him... a couple?!.." 

She she stuttered out still in shock, 

"This is so.... totally...AWESOME!"  

Scootaloo shouted her excitement at the news. 

"Prove it!" 

Sweetie finally spoke up as she regained her composure, 

"S'cuse me little miss?" 

Braeburn stared in shock of Sweetie's behavior before sighing as he remembered she's Rarity's sister. Sweetie stood her ground digging her hoof into the ground, 

"Prove it, kiss eachother!"  

She demanded. Soarin smirked and chuckled, 

"Hah! is that all? okay then" 

He leaned in to kiss Brae placing a hoof to his cheek, but just before their lips touch they jump apart at a cranky but all to familiar voice, 

"Get a room ya two, and as for you three move along now there's nuttin ta see 'ere!"  

Applejack hollered as she made her way over to the group, 

"Gahhh come ooonn!" 

Sweetie Belle yelled as she was escorted away by a now laughing Applebloom and Scootaloo. Returning her attention to the couple she smiles at Braeburn, 

"Well howdy Braeburn, yer 'ere earlier than i expected" 

She said patting Braeburn on the back with her hoof, 

"But... ya'll didn't say ya were bringin' companeh.." 

She added casting a glare at Soarin, Which Soarin shot right back at her, 

"AJ I've said it before and I'll say it again I won't let things go sour for you're cousin and me, I love him too much to allow that!" he snorted keeping his sincere eyes locked with the orange mare's, 

"Ah know ya say that but Ah worry 'bout mah cousin datin' a celebrity.." 

Applejack replied her eyes growing softer to signal she was only looking out for her cousin, 

"If anything ever happened to Brae, I'd deserve the worst you could dish out. You have my word that aslong as I live I'll keep Brae safe and happy I swear on my life..." Soarin replied giving the most serious look Braeburn has ever seen on him, 

"Ah'll hold ya ta tha'" she chuckled finally lightening up. 

"Well that's all great and all that ya'll finally are gettin along but, our train leaves at 3 so if ah can get what ah came for.." 

Braeburn all but snapped, 

"Oh hay! Ah'm sorry cuz' Ah almost forgot, be right back."  

Applejack dashed into the barn, returning a second later she held a bag in her teeth, 

"Here ya go braeburn."

She said, her words muffled by the bag in her mouth. Braeburn took the bag and put it in his saddlebag before tipping his hat

"thank ya kindly."

He said before turning to leave, but before he could leave he heard Soarin ask, 

"excuse me AJ is Big Mac around?"

Soarin smirked imagining the flushed look on brae's face. 

"Yep he's around back with Caramel, want me to have them come say hi?"

Applejack offered 

"If it's no trouble." 

Soarin replied, and with a nod Applejack went around to the back of the barn. Braeburn whipped around glaring at Soarin, 

"What the buck soar! We dun have time to stay and chat, we have a train ta catch!" 

"Well, Ah'm glad ta see ya too cuz'" 

Braeburn turned to see the pokerface expression on the big red stallion known as big macintosh, 

"Ah'm sorry Mac it's not tha' Ah dun wanna spend time with ya but our train ta Appleloosa leaves in fifteen minutes, and tomorrow is our 8th anniversary so if we dun catch the train now we won't be home in time ta celebrate." 

He replied apologetically,
