When Fluttershy mentioned the Lucky Clover, it looked like the thought FINALLY occurred to Rainbow. She smiled when it did, that sounded like a pretty good idea, knowing Soarin's appetite. "The Lucky Clover huh?" Rainbow smiled at this. "Thanks for throwing that out there Fluttershy. I'll definitely remember that if we want to stop somewhere to eat."

"Heh, thanks for the advice, Fluttershy." Soarin' smiled at her, nodding. "And thanks; hope to see you around town again soon..." He glanced over at Rainbow and gave her cheek a quick nuzzle when he thought no one else was looking.

Fluttershy gave them a smile and nodded. "N-no problem at all you two. I hope you both have a wonderful time together." despite how she ended her sentence, she didn't seem to leave, or even attempt to do so. What on earth was holding her back? Rainbow was completely happy! Her first real friend, who always protected her... With a stallion... A WONDERBOLT, nonetheless. That she didn't know very personally at this point... Somepony as famous as him probably had plenty of experience dating and breaking hear-
Fluttershy shook her head rapidly to break herself out of the sudden wave of anger that washed over her. What on earth was she thinking?! "O-oh, I better go then! ByehavefunRainbow...!" with that, she turned around and trotted away as quickly as possible.

[OMG DARK. XDDDDD THAT IS PERFECT, PROTECTIVE FLUTTERSHY FTW]
......................Rainbow watched as Fluttershy ran off..... "Well... That was weird..." To be sure, Rainbow had had more then her fair share of awkward silences when it came to Fluttershy. More then she cared to count often times too. Sure she chalked that up to her being near perpetually shy often times and she had never gotten to meet Soarin' before... But there was just something even more awkward about that silence, she just couldn't put her hoof on what though.
... Ah oh well, Rainbow figured she could talk to Fluttershy about the whole thing later. For now though, she had Soarin' right there with her. She blushed when Soarin' nuzzled her on the cheek, but she didn't say much else. Well... She supposed bumpy start or not, that was a pretty good welcome to town... In a sense.
She let out a breath and turned to Soarin'. "Sooooo Soarin'!" Rainbow smiled in that ever self-assured way of hers. "Where do you wanna go first? There's not much to see in Ponyville, but I can still show you around. Where do you wanna start off?"

Soarin' watched as Fluttershy left... he felt a little perplexed as well; of course, he didn't know Fluttershy... just as she didn't know him. He smiled back at Rainbow. "Hmm... well, I'd like a tour of the town... just the things that you really think I should see." He gave her a goofy smile, chuckling. "I trust you~"

However trusting her put up a particularly difficult duty upon her. What he saw around town was now on her, and she had a duty to help him gain a good first impression of her hometown. Still, that left a big question.
Where should they go first?
.......................... Rainbow's smile widened as an idea came to her. "Hmmm... Yeah... I can do that no prob!" She unfurled her wings. "Follow me! I'll give you the grand tour!" She quickly showed Soarin' to the door of the station, passing several ponies on her way. A few of them looked awed at who passed, but she had few doubts the look had been so brief, they wouldn't have known for sure.
Once they were out the door, Rainbow quickly took to the air, gaining altitude very quickly. "Try to stay with me!"

Soarin' grinned, adjusting his bag on his side so it wouldn't fall off, quickly following her; he wasn't sure how many folks would recognize him without his flightsuit on but he still didn't want to risk it. He took off after her. "Don't think you need to worry about that~" He chuckled and followed her.

Rainbow FINALLY took notice of the bag and took it in a moment. "Hmmm..." After a moment, common sense came to mind and Rainbow stopped. "Hold on..." She said simply thinking a bit. "Do you think we should drop off that bag of yours first? Or will you be okay taking a tour and waiting till after?"
It wasn't really like Rainbow to be thoughtful too much especially for a few of her actions. She was a mare of few regrets that way. Still this was Soarin', she supposed that some thoughtfulness was in order. "We can do either one."

"I can do that later; this isn't very heavy." He chuckled. "I do want to ask, though, if you know of a good hotel in town? If you do, we can swing by near the end of the tour. So what do you wanna show me first?" He smiled at her, looking around the town.

Rainbow quickly nodded upon hearing the question. "Yeah, don't you worry, I know the PERFECT place you can rest your wings after we get done! But if the bag won't be a problem, then that can wait." She grinned a bit. "With that said, let's haul hoof! Our first stop isn't too far but it's still a little out of town."
She had a distinct feeling Soarin' was gonna enjoy the first stop...
He really enjoyed the pies that this place was known for making.

"Alright!" Soarin' hummed slightly as they flew, enjoying the feeling of the sun and breeze on his bare fur. Felt nice flying without that suit on... it just didn't breathe well.
As they got a little closer, the stallion sniffed lightly, licking his lips. "...Apples? W-Where are we?" He swallowed a little saliva down; it smelled really really good...

Rainbow grinned as she motioned below them. "If you're smelling apples then that means we're flying just over our destination. Check it out!"
When Soarin' looked, he was likely pleasantly surprised to find trees for several miles all around. Every last one of them had the pleasant smell of apples. "Soarin' say hi to 'Sweet Apple Acres'. This is where my friend Applejack and her family lives. I come by here sometimes to visit, or if the Apple family needs help with Harvest season. Pretty sweet place huh?"
Amongst the Apple trees, the two spotted what looked like a big ole barn along with a house not too far off. The barn looked like it had seen a few years, but otherwise it was still in good condition. "Applejack and her fam lives in those buildings over there. Kinda country, but it isn't that bad a place."

Soarin's stomach rumbled lightly at the smell and he blushed. "Eheh... s-she's the one from the Gala, right? And the wedding?" He rubbed the back of his head. "Yeah, it's a nice place... really peaceful."
The pegasus stallion reached into has bag, getting a small apple out of it... and eating it pretty much in one gulp. "Ehe... sorry 'bout that. Train didn't have much in the way of food."

"Yeah, Applejack's the one that gave you the pies." Rainbow replied with a knowing and smiling roll of her eyes. She also merely shrugged at Soarin' pulling out the apple and chomping it down. "Don't worry, I know how that is..."
She couldn't help but smile as she took in Sweet Apple Acres. "Anyways, glad you like this place. Figured you would." Nodding, she turned back to Soarin', "Wanna move on? The next place on the list is back in town, and pretty bouncy. It's where we hold a lot of fun parties."

He swallowed his mouthful of apple, before nodding. "Yeah yeah! Sounds great; I honestly didn't expect a small town like Ponyville to have much in that regard... I'm guessing I'm going to get surprised, though, right?" He smiled and followed Rainbow as they went, just slightly behind her but mostly at her side. He was enjoying being with the cyan mare again.
