"What's blushing??."
Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie looked up at Rainbow. Rainbow was sitting on the floor, her chew toy in hand, looking up at Rarity.
Rarity blinked. "Excuse me??"
"What's blushing??." Rainbow repeated.
Rarity put her phone down, raising an eyebrow.
"Why do you want to know??."
Rainbow shifted. "Because a few days ago Applejack said that I was blushing when I said my face felt warm. She told me to ask you what that means."
Rarity grinned. "You were blushing??."
Rainbow shrugged. "I've never really felt that way before."
Rarity, Pinkie, and Fluttershy grinned at each other. They awwwwed. Rainbow looked at them, confused.
"Rainbow, darling." Rarity said, sliding down to the floor. She sat in front of Rainbow Dash.
"When you blush, it means you're embarrassed or flustered." She explained. "Were you blushing because of something Applejack did or said??."
Rainbow nodded.
"She was telling me that she really cares about me. More than she should, she said."
"And how did that make you feel??." Rarity grinned, leaning closer to Rainbow.
Rainbow shrugged. "Special. I liked that she cares about me. I care about her too. A lot."
"And how do you feel around her??."
Rainbow thought about it.
"My stomach flips around like pancake when she smiles at me and I get nervous to talk to her. And I think she's really pretty."
Rarity giggled, clapping her hands excitedly. "My goodness, Rainbow Dash. You have a crush on Applejack."
Rainbow tilted her head. "You think so, too??. I thought so, but I just thought I was crazy."
"You like her." Pinkie teased loudly
Rainbow shushed her. She looked at the doorway to make sure Applejack wasn't there. She looked around at the girls.
"Don't keep saying it so loudly." She said in a panic. "I don't want her to know."
"Why not??." Fluttershy asked from the couch.
"She might like you back."
Rainbow shook her head. "I-I just can't tell her. It wouldn't be good for her."
Rarity frowned. "What are talking about??."
Rainbow sighed. "I don't fit in, guys. If Applejack's fans and stuff find out if we did date, they might not look at Applejack the same way anymore. She'll be known as the singer that's dating a freak. Plus, I'd be such a burden to her. She already feels like she has to protect me when we go places. If we date, she'll want to protect me even more. I don't want to cause anything."
Rainbow looked at Rarity, hopelessly.
"I can't tell her. I want to, but I can't."
Rainbow's ears dropped even lower than they already were. She pulled her knees to her chest.
"Plus, she wouldn't like a freak like me." She mumbled, punching her leg and crossed her arms. "No one would."
