Chapter Five: Spin The Bottle

A/N: Sorry for the extremely long wait, hope you enjoy!

    A/N from Sunrise_Mist (gasp):
These next few chapters drift the story away from Sciset, going on about Rarijack and Flutterdash.

Rarity's POV

"MOTHER!!" I shouted down the stairs for my mom, she was helping me set up the afternoon of events, I assigned her to set up the snacks.

I heard her voice from my bedroom. "It's okay Rarity! I have the snacks done!" I let out a sigh of relief. I was walking down the stairs when I heard the doorbell ring throughout the house. I sped up my pace and ran to the door, I was greeted by Applejack.

“Oh,” I laughed. “You’re early.”

“Ah am? Crap, sorry Rares, Granny Smith’s habits must be wearin’ off on me.” She stepped inside sliding off her shoes. “When should the others be here?”

I glanced over to the clock we had next to the TV. “I’d say, about 10 minutes?” She stepped aside and set her stuff down, a small red bag. 

Once she was seated on the couch, next to me, I subconsciously started to use my hands to drum my legs. I glanced around trying not to make it awkward, but it already was.

As my eyes were flitting around the room, I heard Applejack clear her throat as an attempt to get my attention. It worked, my eyes drifted back towards Applejack. "Rarity…?" She asked this in a tone that almost sounded scared. Her face flushed a new color of red.

We were looking directly into one another's eyes. “Rarity,” she repeated again, with more volume. “I-”

    The doorbell rang, making Applejack and I flinch. “I’ll get it,” Applejack quickly told me standing up. The doorbell continued ringing, over and over again. I covered my ears, waiting for Applejack to open the door.

“Ah swear to God if you don’t-”

“Applejack!” Pinkie squealed, banging the door (A/N: May or may not be a Friendship is Violence reference-). Applejack swung the door open in hopes to get her to stop. Once Pinkie was inside, she threw her backpack on the ground making me flinch. “I'm here!! Were you guys waiting for me?"

    Applejack glanced back at me. “Yeah, sure - I guess.” Pinkie pulled Applejack into a tight hug. When she finished, she gave her a big smile. Pinkie dropped her stuff next to the stairs, which were located to the right of the front door. Then she bounced over to the family's fuzzy blue chair. Applejack sat on the bottom step of the stairs, waiting to see if anyone else would show up in the moment. 

    She was right to sit there, because a few minutes later, we heard what sounds like a planned knock at the door. Applejack perked up at the sound. Standing up, she grabbed the door handle, pulling it open until we saw a familiar purple-haired girl.

    "Twahligh'!" I heard Applejack greet Twilight with her southern accent, and looked up.

    "Welcome, darling!" Right as Twilight was walking in the door, Fluttershy mysteriously appeared behind her. "Oh my! Fluttershy, how did you- oh nevermind, we're happy to see you could make it." 

I clapped my hands together and told everyone to wait in the living room.

    Right when I was closing the door, something prevented me from closing it. There was a black boot in the way of the door. I opened it all the way, only to be greeted by a smiling Shimmer, she stepped into the house and bowed. We laughed at her little show.

    "Now, who else are we waiting for?" Sunset asked while we were all getting seated.

    I answered Sunset quickly, "Well, everyone is here…. except Rainbow." I frowned, Rainbow is never late, I mean, Dash is even in her name!

I was so absorbed in my thoughts I didn't notice Fluttershy get up and go into the kitchen.

Fluttershy's POV

    When I heard that Dashie wasn't here yet, I knew something must be wrong. I took out my phone and scrolled through my contacts. Once I found her I sent her a text and waited.

    Dashie⚡❤:

3:32
Flutters🦋💮: Hey Dashie, I was wondering if everything was okay… 

3:37
Dashie⚡❤: Yeah… Hi Flutters, um, tell everyone that I'll be there in about 5 minutes, okay? Scootie broke her arm, and I had to comfort her before she went to the hospital

3:38

Flutters🦋💮: Okay, I will, I'm just glad you're safe 💕

Rarity's POV

Fluttershy walked back into the room and sat down next to Twilight on the couch. "Um… Rainbow texted me and said she would… be here in a few minutes…" she said quietly. We all nodded, when Pinkie hopped up from her chair and swung the door open.

"Pinkie, darling, you're going to break my door." She giggled in response and moved aside to show a guilty looking Rainbow Dash. "Oh, Rainbow! Welcome! Now we can get started on our activities," I said with a devilish grin.

Rainbow scratched the back of her neck and shoved her other hand in her pocket, "Yeah, sure, let's go." We all started climbing the stairs, Rainbow was still standing at the bottom. Fluttershy was quick to go down to walk next to her with a sympathetic look on her face.

    I turned around, following the rest of the group. We all piled into the TV Room, where all the snacks were. Sunset was quick to grab a small bag of doritos. It took awhile for Fluttershy and Rainbow to walk in. 

    They were having some conversation in the hallway, Fluttershy’s face was a shade of light red I have never seen before, I wonder if... No, nope, no. I brushed those thoughts out of my mind, standing in front of the TV. 

    Applejack sat on the ground, all her attention was glued on her phone. Pinkie sat on the couch, eating candy that I didn’t offer as a snack. Twilight was playing with her fingers, just sitting there fidgeting.

    “Alright, Rares, what’s the plan?” Applejack asked all of a sudden, setting down her phone.

    “Ooh, can we watch a movie? I really, really, really, want to watch Seven Deadly Sins,” Pinkie blurted out.

    “That’s a series...” Twilight started to say.

    “With a movie!”

    “Spin the bottle,” Sunset suddenly exclaimed.

    The room went silent as we looked over at Sunset in surprise. “Oh come on, like Rarity wasn’t going to suggest something along the lines of that.”

    Rainbow shrugged. “Fuck it. Spin the bottle it is,” she said, sitting down on the ground.

    Sunset slid onto the ground next to Rainbow. “We need a bottle.”

    Tentatively, I joined the half circle. Pinkie pulled out a bottle from her hair with a sly grin. “What? You never know when you might need a bottle.”

    Soon, Applejack, Twilight, and Fluttershy joined us, making a full complete circle. We watched as Pinkie set the bottle in the middle.

    “I’ll go first,” Sunset announced. She spun it. We all sat there waiting, many different thoughts going through everyone’s mind.

    Rainbow bursted out laughing falling onto the ground as it landed on Applejack. Applejack gave me a quick glance. 

    “Oh man, this is great,” Dash barely managed to say as she regained her balance.

    “Pucker up, buttercup!” Pinkie blurted out. 

    “Dammit,” Sunset muttered. 

    “Let’s get this over with,” was the last thing Applejack said before leaning forward. Their lips connected, I didn’t want to look. My attention turned to Twilight, who was just sitting there. She obviously looked nervous, this was her first sleepover with us, and two girls were already kissing.

    Thankfully, it was only a quick peck. When I turned back they were looking away from each other. 

    It was Rainbow’s turn next, since we were going clockwise. We spun the bottle, waiting for it to land on someone. And the person who the bottle pointed at, set Pinkie on a fit of hysteria.

    
    “What the fuck?” Applejack cursed.

    “Alright, this thing is cursed, why is it only pointing at her?” Rainbow asked, picking up the bottle. She looked at the glass, her stare averted to Pinkie. “What did you do?”

    “Ah feel harassed,” Applejack spoke.

    “Isn’t this great?” Sunset beamed. 

    There were a few more seconds of arguing until Fluttershy spoke up. “Uhm, I’ll do it if Rainbow doesn’t want to-”

    The room got silent as Fluttershy’s face got red. “I didn’t say that out loud- did I?”

    Pinkie reached over to the table, grabbing the bag of popcorn. She threw a piece at me, I gave her a face. 

    And with that, Rainbow leaned forward, Fluttershy and Rainbow’s lips touching. 

    “Alright, that’s enough-” Sunset interrupted after about ten seconds. 

    Rainbow and Fluttershy backed away. “That was really cute and all, but it got kind of disgusting really quickly.” 

    Rainbow and Fluttershy laughed, but throughout the game, they seemed to keep their gaze on each other. 

Rainbow Dash’s POV

    The game went on, Rarity went next, kissing Twilight. Then it was Sunset's turn. It landed on Pinkie, after about 30 seconds of awkwardness, they finally did a quick peck.

Twilight was next, she spun, it landed on Sunset. I don't know if it was just me, but their faces became really red, really quick. After a less than one second kiss, they pulled apart and didn't look at each other the rest of the game.

    When it was Pinkie’s turn, there was a faint yell from Rarity’s kitchen. Pinkie perked up, hearing the words ice cream and pizza.

    Applejack stood up. “Let’s never ever play this again.” She started to walk down the hallway, Pinkie following.

    The rest followed, walking down the hallway. The only two that were left in the room were Shy and I.

    We looked at eachother, and quickly, she nervously started tracing lines on the carpet. “Listen - I’m sorry about earlier. Sometimes I say stupid things, and that was probably the stupidest thing I’ve ever-”

    “Shy, it’s alright,” I told her.

     Her face turned a different color. “It is-?”

     I laughed, leaning back onto the wall. “Definitely.”

     “What- what do you mean?” she stammered.

     “I mean, I’ve never seen you carry that much courage. It was pretty cool,” I told her standing up. 

     “I mean, it can’t be that rare-”

     I extended my hand out to her. “You’re funny Shy. I’m so glad that you’re my friend.”

    She took my hand, a new expression formed on her face - I couldn’t make out what it meant. “Yeah, uh, me too.”

Applejack's POV

    I strode over to the kitchen, following Pinkie Pie. That was fucking awkward, if I have to do that again- 

    My thoughts were interrupted by Pinkie screaming. "Pinkie, what is it?" I asked in worry. Usually she screams over something dumb, but you never know.

    I looked ahead of me to see Pinkie with the biggest smile plastered on her face, she was bouncing up and down, pointing to an assortment of ice cream flavors on Rarity's kitchen counter. "LOOK HOW MUCH ICE CREAM!!!" She started squealing again. Oh jeez, she's so excited she can't even English. I facepalmed as she grabbed a bowl and opened all the containers of ice creams.

    Once we all had our plates and bowls filled with food, we sat down at Rarity's kitchen table. She cleared her throat, proceeding to get everyone's attention, "Okay, so… I know that game didn't go so well, but I have a new game! And it will be better, I promise!" Groans quickly followed her suggestion, there was no way in hell I was doing another game.

    After everyone finished their meals, we were back upstairs, sitting in a circle. "So Rarity," I started to say, "What's this game you have in mind?"

    She looked at me, smirking, "How does everyone feel about… Seven minutes in heaven?"
