Dash's Little Big Problem

by pandaxxus

Return

Rainbow blinked repeatedly as she stood against her front door, dumbfounded after returning from the cafe.

What just happened?

The conversation that she had just had with this "Feather Bangs" character at the coffee shop continuously played in her mind as she walked back to her apartment complex. After introducing himself, the blonde apologized yet again for the minor mishap and began to flirt with Rainbow in the least subtle way. She recalled biting her tongue in hopes to prevent herself from telling the creep to "get lost", wondering why he had suddenly forgotten about the fact that she was in a relationship and wanted nothing to do with him. It ended with him trying to give her his cellphone number, to which Rainbow respectfully declined before they parted ways.

"Oh, you're home,"

A familiar deep voice shook her from her thoughts and Rainbow found herself smiling as she saw Mac coming from their bedroom. Before she could greet him, Big Mac found himself staring at the stain on her clothing and a look of confusion quickly made its way onto his freckled face.

"May I ask what happened?" he questioned with a soft smile, his accent thick.

"Oh," Rainbow chuckled nervously, not sure if she should tell him about the Romeo she had met moments prior, "Some clutz just ran into me and totally messed up my new shirt, that's all."

Big Mac gave a deep, hearty laugh at that, "Well did this 'clutz' apologize?"

"Oh yeah, he apologized alright," Rainbow quipped, rolling her eyes out of annoyance. In response, she was met with another confused gaze from her boyfriend before she just waved it off and quickly decided to change the subject.

"So, what did you do while I was gone?" she asked, walking towards her couch.

"Wait for you to come back," Mac smiled, knowing exactly what he was doing. He only laughed when his girlfriend began to fake gag at the remark, Rainbow joining in on the laughter shortly after. It wasn't until moments later that Mac decided he should make sandwiches for both of them and headed into the kitchen, leaving Rainbow alone in the living room with her thoughts. As the prismatic haired girl relaxed, she dug her hand into the pocket of her jacket and quickly grew confused as her fingers brushed upon an unfamiliar item. Sitting up, Rainbow hastily drew a small piece of paper from her pocket and gawked at the sight. On the paper, there was a phone number. Next to the number, there were the initials, "FB". Rainbow only grew annoyed and growled under her breath.

"That smooth little mother-"

"Did you say somethin'?" Mac quickly asked the moment he heard her voice. Placing the unwanted number back in her pocket, Rainbow looked behind her and shook her head.

"Nope, sorry,"

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. Rainbow held back the urge to roll her eyes as she already had a sense of who it was and went to go open the door for their guest. Unsurprisingly, a familiar purple-haired woman darted through the door, almost causing Dash to lose her balance. Rainbow watched with wide eyes as Sugar Belle ran to her boyfriend and captured him in a tight hug, squeezing her cheeks against his as if he were her teddy bear. Mac seemed as surprised as Rainbow did, dropping the slices of bread in an instant.

"Sugar-"

"Oh Mac, I missed you!" the girl exclaimed, only puzzling the couple even more so.

"It's been a day-"

"No, it hasn't! Don't you remember what we did this morning?"

"Uh, Belle I-"

"We had so much fun, didn't we? You're seriously one of a kind, I'll never forget what you said to me..." Sugar Belle continued to ramble on and on about this event that supposedly happened a few hours ago. Rainbow furrowed her brows, still baffled at the way Sugar Belle had barged in. She had never seen the sweet girl act in such a way, nor did she understand what she was talking about.

"I really hope we can do it again sometime, Mac.." Sugar Belle said, calmer than she was before. She stared at Mac dreamily, her hands together as she swayed from side to side. Before she left, she gave the boy a quick peck on the cheek and turned on her heels. Taking the initiative to close the door on her own, Sugar Belle exited without even acknowledging Rainbow's presence. The confused pair only stood frozen in silence, before Mac was quick to speak.

"Dash, I-I swear I have no clue what she's talking about.."

"I believe you," Rainbow spoke, her eyes narrowing on the door as if the intruder was still there, "What's her deal?"

"I really don't know, darlin', maybe it's somethin' she dreamed about?" Mac suggested, to which Rainbow cocked her head in response, "I'll have a word with her later."

Rainbow was put off by Sugar Belle's stunt, but she was determined to not let it bother her. Besides, if she ever busted through the door like that again, Rainbow would make sure she wouldn't make it past the entrance. However, this posed a question in Rainbow's head.

Is she trying to make me jealous?

---

"Are you crazy? You didn't discuss that with me!"

"Last time I checked, this was my plan, not yours. You don't need to know what I do,"

"Well, last time I checked, you called me in for help, so I should have a say in what's going to work or not. In my opinion, you just screwed everything up!"

Sugar Belle plopped down on the green couch in her friend's apartment, growing tired of this small argument.

"How did I screw it up?!"

"Belle, what even was the purpose of doing that?" Feather Bangs asked harshly, angered and worried that he's doing this all for nothing.

"To make her angry and question him, duh.."

"Was it to make her angry or was it an excuse to hug Macintosh?" he deadpanned, to which Sugar Belle only glared in response.

"Look, I came over to discuss how things went on your end, not so you can criticize my strategies.." Sugar Belle snapped, "Now spill,"

"She's really hard to get, but it's understandable because she has a boyfriend." Feather Bangs put more emphasis on the final word in his statement before sighing, "What is the point of doing this anyway?"

"To get Mac back, what is so hard to understand?"

"Have you maybe, I don't know, tried to move on? I understand that you love him a lot and everything but I'm sure there are people out there that would love you so much more than he could. Some people could be right in front of you and you'd never know.."

Sugar Belle scoffed, "Oh please, if that was the case I would have found someone new already. I think of this as the universe telling me that Mac is the one.."

"That makes no sense," Feather Bangs muttered, only getting a groan from Sugar Belle in return.

"Look are you going to help me or not? It doesn't seem like you want to do this.."

"Of course I'm going to help you, Belle. I just want you to be happy and if this is the way, I'll do anything to help make it happen but please don't be upset if this doesn't-"

"Okay then, thank you, Bangs!" Sugar Belle gave him a quick hug as she grabbed her jacket and headed out the door in a swift manner. Feather Bangs only sighed, left alone in the apartment yet again.

Author's Note:

Surprise? Is anyone still reading this? Hi?

So I randomly had the inspiration for another chapter of this the other day and I gave it a shot. It's quite messy since it's been over a whole year since the last chapter but I remember how I wanted this plot to go. I don't know if this is a set guarantee that this story is making a return but if it is, please expect slow updates (I'm so sorry!) Anyway, if I do make another chapter then expect it to be mostly Feather Bangs related because I feel like he needs some context.

Lastly, thank you to those who added this story to your favorites although it seemed to be discontinued as well as those who commented <3 Please leave any comments or feedback because I always am looking for room to improve. Thanks so much and I hope to see you again.

O hope it does, the first one was amazing. I just didn't want to start on this one before I knew if it was going to continue.

That Sugar Belle is crazy, and I can tell Feather Bangs don't want no part in this but would do anything for her to be happy (how sweet of him) and if I were you Big Mac I'd say... Be careful around her, and Dash i would also say... Be careful around Bangs too. Be Careful, look deep and know the truth...or questions that remain for the to figure out by themselves. I also wonder if you might try and ship Rarity and Applejack together ( you know after watching that rollercoaster shows between them i kinda ship it.) and I'm sure Pinkie, Raity and Applejack will be "The great love solving Spy Detectives" on the case, between SB, FB and BM, RD. I'm so nervous and excited to see how this will go for them.
