Chapter 15

                                    

                                          
After the play, We proceeded to go at the backstage so we can change our attire. Aj ran towards me and gave me warm hug. "You were great Rainbow!" She yelled. I blushed immediatelty! I covered my blushing face with my collar and nervously responded to her. "Thanks.. you were great too Aj.." we both laughed in relief and patted each other's back. Eventually, Rarity stepped right in to ruin the moment.
                          
R: "Applejack Darling! I've been looking everywhere for you." Rarity cheerfully yelled as she grabs Applejack by the hand .
                          
My jealousy got even worse, not only that Rarity's trying to get Aj away from me, she also kissed her back at the play. I gotta do something, Im not going to let Rarity get away with it.
                          
Rd: "Hey, we were just talking here." 
                          
R: "I see, if you dont mind, I'll be borrowing Applejack for a moment."
                          
Rd: "And why?" 
                          
The tension between us were getting worse. We both gave each other threatening mad looks. Finally, Applejack stood up to break the fight.
                          
Aj:" Hey now, Rarity, I'll catch up with you for a bit. Lemme just talk with Rainbow. Okay?"
                          
R:" Certainly darling! See you later" Rarity obviously replied with her fake smile, but before she left the room, she gave me a threatening look and kinda evil grin? I suppose its nothing to worry about. For now, I just want to spend time with Aj without distractions.
                          
While I'm here with Aj and Rarity is no where to be found, its my chance to ask Aj about their relationship.. you know.. to make sure they weren't dating or something.. Uhm.. Jealousy stuff. 
                          
Rd: "Hey Aj.."
                          
Aj: "hey?"
                          
I gathered all my courage to finally ask her the question..
                          
Rd: " Uhm.. are you and Rarity a thing?"
                          
Aj:" Huh?" 
                          
Rd: " its not like I mind or anything! I just wanna know but if you cant say it its fine! Hehehe.." I nervously denied to avoid the question I asked her.. Im a fool! Why did I ask that?!
                          
Aj giggles softly and gave me a warm cute smile, which made me panic even more! Did she noticed that im jealous at Rarity? No no nooo..
                          
Aj: "Relax Dash, Me and Rarity aint datin'. Were just friends thats all. Honestly, I kinda felt nothing when she kissed me back at the play. 
                          
That was a relief.. Now I know that they weren't dating, and I know that Aj has no feelings for Rarity, im so happy!
                          
Rd: "Oh.. Uhm. Okay. Wanna grab lunch with me?
                          
Aj: "Sure, all that actin' sure got me hungry.
                          
Rd: "Heh.. me too." I nervously responded.
                          
As soon me and Aj stepped into the halls, a crowd of girls started to stare at us.. I felt uncomfortable, I dont mind taking the spotlight during my games but somethings odd.. they yelled out of excitement and ran towards us, they yelled "Rarijack is the best!" I.. Felt.. something.. My jealousy got even worse.. and my anger rose every time i hear that word.. "Rarijack.."
                          
As the crowd of annoying girls came up to us, they were giving continuous compliment about Aj's acting skills. They were so focused on Aj they dint even notice I was there! I basically ignored them as the insecure feeling inside of me got worse.
                          
Trixie: "Wow Applejack! I dint know you can act! I ship Rarijack!
                          
Other girls: "Yeah!" 
                          
Aj: "Woah, hold on now.. Rarijack?"
                          
Trixie: "Yeah we made it up! Its a ship for you and Rarity!"
                          
I get pissed every single time I hear that word.. I can't just stand here while the word spreads.. I just cant..
                          
Rd: "seriously? Rarijack? Gross."
                          
Trixie: "Oh shut it Dash, your just jealous that you dint get the lead role.
                          
Rd: "You seriously think Im into this Sh*t trixie?" I replied as the anger grows more inside me.
                          
Aj: "Hey now! Lets not fight. Thanks for the ship Trixie but me and Rarity aint together."
                          
Trixie: "I dont care! As long that you both are cute together, I ship it!" She stupidly replied as she turns her back and starts to make her way to the classroom along with her idiot crew.
                          
Dang it why do I feel so weak now? People prefer Rarijack.. Its supposed to be Appledash! Wait.. no.. Rainbow Jack? Nah.. whatever! Its still not coming true..
                          
Aj gave me a sincere look and grab me by the wrist. I looked up into her Emerald eyes.. She gave me a warm smile as our eyes locked into each other. 
                          
Aj: "Hey.. ya okay? You've been actin' strange lately.."
                          
Rd: "Yeah Im okay.."
                          
Aj:" No your not..."
                          
Rd: "Really Aj Im fine" I replied as my voice started to break.
                          
Aj: "Your not good at lying ya know that?" She said with a sincere smile.
                          
I giggled soflty and bowed my head.. I cant tell her that Im jealous at Rarity.. she'll know that I like.. No.. I love her. I gotta think fast..
                          
Aj: "Is it about you and Fluttershy?" 
                          
Rd: "Uhm.. Yeah..thats it." Thank god she dint mention Rarity..
                          
Aj: "Heh.. I aint good with this datin' stuff but.. I know that someone that really loves you will eventually come in your life, All it needs is Time."
                          
Rd: "I know Apples.. Thanks.."
                          
But that someone.. is alreday you Applejack.. I wish you already know what I feel about you~..
