Hey, Applejack!

The orange mare looked behind her. Morning, Rainbow. How you feeling?

Pretty good. Id be better if the baby would quit treating my bladder like an apple tree, the cyan pegasus replied as she waddled up the hill to join her friend. Hows the harvest going?

Pretty good. I was just taking a quick breather. You sure you should be out and about? Its an awful long walk to the house.

Rainbow rolled her eyes. I swear, AJ, if you go all worried on me, Ill scream. I get enough of it from Mac.

All right, Applejack replied, waving a hoof to placate her friend. Im just looking out for my sister-in-law, is all.

Rainbow Dash sighed. I know, sorry for snapping.

Salright. I was a little short-tempered when I had Cobbler, too.

Rainbow watched as her and Applejacks stallions worked to bring the harvest of apples. Her eyes stayed especially trained on Big Mac. She watched the red stallion kick a tree with one leg, every apple falling into baskets. She imagined what would happen if he used both legs, how those same hooves that held her with such love and care at night could probably snap a tree in half.

Applejack gave her an odd look as she shuddered. Are you all right, sugarcube?

Yeah, the pegasus replied dreamily. You ever notice how awesome Macs beard is?

The orange mare glanced at her brother. Eh, its all right. Hes been really busy lately with work and you and the baby.

I dont know what it is, but since he started growing it, I just cant keep my hooves off him, you know?

Applejack grimaced, then translated Rainbows point to her husband. Yeah, I think I get you. I think Soarin started growing one because Mac did. I didnt think Id like it, but its kinda nice. I like how it tickles when he kisses me.

Rainbow sighed. Oh yeah, me too. Hey do you, uh, think Mac could get a long lunch break?

Applejack shrugged. I dont see why- waitugh Rainbow! Thats my brother!

And damn is he hot. Besides, you and Soarin can get a long break, too.

The orange mare smiled. I guess thatd be nice. It'd be a good time to tell him

The rainbow pegasus curiosity was piqued. Tell him what?

Applejack smiled warmly. Youre right. I just couldnt keep my hooves off him with that beard.

Rainbows eyes widened. You mean youre

Shh. Im not sure yet, but Ive been feeling sick the past few mornings. Keep it to yourself until I'm sure, all right.

Rainbow nodded excitedly. Mums the word.

Thanks. The orange mare glanced around the orchard. You didnt see Fluttershy and Braeburn on your way up here, did you? They were supposed to stop by and help.

Rainbow smirked. Theyre probably running late. Braeburns been growing a beard, too.
