Letter to Rainbow Dash

Dear Rainbow Dash,


I, um, hello Rainbow Dash. You don't really know me, at least not all of me; but, I know you very much. I've known you for a really long time now.

I remember when we used to go to flight school when we were only fillies. I wasn't a really good flier, in fact, I was scared of flying. The colts at school were always making fun of me, calling me a "scared-y pony" and a coward; always making me cry. Every day, I hid inside the bathroom to hide from them and cry by myself.

But then, you came into my life. You protected me from those mean bullies; you never called me a coward nor made fun of my bad flying skills.  You were the only one who wanted to be my friend; who always sat next to me in the lunch room. I was really shy at first, but I soon started liking your company.

Rainbow Dash, after all these years, I've finally realized something. I, I think I love you, Rainbow.

You are my protector; my shield. Every time I'm with you, I feel safe, as if nothing in the world can ever hurt me.

I've wanted to tell you how I feel for so long; to press my lips against yours and hold you and never let you go.


But, I just can't gather up the nerve to tell you about my love. I've tried, oh how I've tried; but every time I just feel so afraid about you rejecting me and never wanting to be my friend anymore. So, I just keep quiet and mentally kick myself for being such a coward.

That's why I'm writing this letter; because it's the only way I can put down my feeling without talking to anypony.

I should stop this letter now, it's Angel's feeding time.

Rainbow Dash, I want to be yours, but I can never let you know about my feelings.


With love,
Fluttershy.
