[MLP Equestria Girls] Sunset Shimmer x Female Reader
Summary: After an incident, Sunset is there to keep you calm and help you tend to your injury.
Word Count: 3.05k Content + Warnings: Reader breaks a bone, cussing, talk of pain killers, talk of fighting Category: Slight Angst + Fluff || One-shot
[A/N]: I've only ever broken my toe and fractured my hip before (knock on wood) and never went to the hospital for either, so I have no idea if the description of Reader's broken leg or the way I wrote the treatment at the hospital are accurate lol. I plan on answering another request, then writing for Val Ortiz, then writing for Adagio next.
Enjoy!
You weren’t sure how you managed to let Rainbow Dash convince you to play a round of soccer with her after classes, but there you were: with your jacket tied around your waist and your hair pushed back out of your face as much as it could be, you stood your ground on the field and stared her down. She had dragged the others along with her, including Pinkie Pie, who was given the whistle. As you waited for her to blow the whistle and start the match, you snuck a quick glance over at your girlfriend, Sunset, watching contentedly from the bleachers.
She shot you a smile when you waved to her and returned the motion. Her hand fell back into her lap when you turned to face your opponent again. Finally, Pinkie blew the whistle and yelled a quick, “go!” in which Rainbow, who was granted the running start and first kick, struck the ball forward and chased quickly behind it. You jumped at the speed of it before turning to run after her, doing your best to catch up and kick the ball away from her. You weren’t able to succeed, however, and she almost instantly scored a point for herself.
“Point for Rainbow,” Pinkie hollered. You groaned, immediately knowing that you weren’t going to win against her. Still, you wanted to at least make one goal.
When you turned to look over at Sunset, you saw her snickering a bit before she sat up straight and gave you two thumbs up. You rolled your eyes at her laughing, but still smiled and stuck your thumb back up in her direction in return.
After catching your breath, you returned to your previous spot on the field and waited once again for the whistle to start the match. Again, Rainbow kicked the ball almost directly into the goal just a moment after, leaving you dumbfounded from her speed. This continued for a few more rounds.
The final round, Rainbow allowed you to kick the ball off first. The shrill scream of the whistle rang out, and you took off toward the small ball, kicking it immediately toward your goal and somehow managing to maneuver around Rainbow and make it close to the goal. You smiled, surprised with yourself, and readied your leg in the air behind you to punt the ball into the goal.
Just as you let your leg swing forward, you watched as Rainbow’s leg flew in from the side, her heel making contact with the side of your shin and driving into it at full force. Instantly, you heard a loud, sickening crack accompanied by a sharp pain bolting through your veins.
The ball completely forgotten, you collapsed to the floor and clutched your leg into your chest, letting out a cry and curling into yourself. “Shit!” Rainbow froze in place for a brief moment before crouching down beside you and gripping your shoulder, trying to help you sit up again. From across the field, you could barely hear the sound of Sunset calling your name and thundering towards you through the sound of your heart pounding in your ears.
“Oh, fuck,” Sunset muttered under her breath as she kneeled down beside you and propped your head up against her lap. “Rainbow, why did you do that?” She hollered, clutching you closely to her protectively as she barked insults at Rainbow for being so careless. Rainbow stammered, trying to explain her mistake before ultimately giving up and turning to you, blurting apology after apology. You groaned, forcing yourself to sit up enough to lean against Sunset’s shoulder instead, wincing when she squeezed you against her and looked down at your leg.
Bent halfway out of place, she knew instantly that it was broken. Her lips tugged back into a grimace at the sight before she sighed and fished her keys out of her pocket, tossing them in Rainbow’s direction. Confused, she looked up at Sunset. “Go start my car. I’m going to drive her to the hospital.” She nodded without argument and stood, turning on her heel and dashing off toward the parking lot on the other side of the school.
“Hey,” Sunset partially whispered, moving to sit in front of you once she was sure you could sit up on your own. “It’s going to be okay, alright? We’re gonna get you to the hospital, and you’ll feel better there once they get your leg back into place.” You nodded, whimpering and wiping at the few stray tears that dripped from your eyes.
She scooted a bit closer and lifted your leg. You yelped from the motion, prompting her to blurt out a quick apology before she rested it against her lap in an attempt to elevate it. “You’re gonna be okay.” Her hand drove forward and took yours, squeezing it gently as she did her best to get you to look her in the eye. “Breathe. I’m going to pick you up so I can carry you to the car, but you have to calm down a bit first,” she explained, keeping her tone low and soothing. “Just breathe with me.”
You nodded again, still too shocked from everything to speak properly. Your eyes trained themselves on her as she put a hand to her chest, making it easier to see it rising and falling with each breath. As she sucked in a breath, you did the same, held it when she did, and released it at the same time as her. You continued to mirror her for a few minutes until you ultimately managed to breathe normally again. She wiped the rest of your tears dry, hooked one arm around your torso, then one under your legs.
“I’m not going to lie, this is probably going to hurt. You ready?”
“Yeah.”
She nodded at your confirmation and hoisted you up, flinching with guilt when you hissed loudly and tensed up. “I’m sorry,” she murmured. Turning slowly, she walked toward the parking lot, meeting Rainbow halfway there. “Why don’t I come with you guys? I feel bad for all of this,” she suggested, earning a sneer from Sunset, who shook her head and continued walking. “I think you’re kind of the last person she wants to see when she has to get her leg popped back into place,” she growled. Rainbow frowned, but she didn’t argue.
“Sunset, she didn’t mean to,” you piped up only a moment later. “I’m not mad at her.” She looked down at you in her arms, staring at you with wide eyes as if you were crazy. “What? How could you not be mad at her? She just broke your leg!” “She didn’t mean to.” “So what?” She was ready to continue, seemingly angered at the situation for you, though she stopped herself upon seeing your pain-riddled features: eyes clenched shut, brows pinched together, and lips pulled back in a scowl. “Sorry,” she repeated softly.
After carrying you around to the passenger side of her car, she managed to pull the door open and sit you inside, sliding the chair back to give your legs enough room. Just as quickly as she had run to you on the field, she raced to the driver’s side and slipped in, shifting gears and speeding out of the parking lot.
The entire ride there was agonizing for you, though a small bit of your anxiety eroded when she took your hand into hers, a silent way of saying she was there for you. When the car rolled to a stop in the parking lot, Sunset shot out and over to pick you back up and carry you inside.
Shortly after making it inside, Sunset set you down in one of the chairs in the waiting room while she went up to the desk and explained the situation. They assured her quickly that they’d get her back to be seen shortly, and she joined you over in the seat next to you. As you waited, she repeatedly did her best to get your mind off of the pain shooting through your leg, though she didn’t fail to notice that everyone else seemed to be getting in ahead of you.
After about half an hour passed, she went back up to the front desk and asked what was taking so long. The woman running the reception up front explained that since the situation wasn’t dire, they were letting in other people before you, which only sparked fury into Sunset’s blood until it boiled. Begrudgingly, after you called her to come back and calm down, she returned to your side and grumbled a few curses under her breath about how long the entire situation was taking.
Another half hour had passed by the time Sunset lost her temper. She stormed back up to the desk yet again and fought back every urge she had to start yelling at the woman, knowing it wasn’t her fault. “Why the hell is it taking so long? My girlfriend’s in serious pain, her leg is swollen and broken, and we’ve already been waiting here for an hour! How much longer is it going to take until she can be seen? This is ridiculous,” she started, fingertips digging painfully into the countertop as she grew increasingly impatient.
The startled woman sitting on the other side of the counter held her hands up in surrender and nodded with her words, trying to deescalate the situation. “Ma’am, I understand that, but we’re low on space right now and there are other people who need to be seen first. I promise you we’re doing all we can.” Sunset grumbled and closed her eyes for a brief moment, taking a deep breath to calm herself before glaring at the woman again.
“Then can she at least get some pain killers or something until she can be seen?” “I’ll see what I can do.” With a scoff, she turned around and nearly dropped herself back down into the chair next to you. As you parted your lips to ask if she was okay, a nurse came by holding a small plastic cup with two pain killers in it. In her other hand, she held a small water bottle. After checking that you weren’t allergic to the specific kind she had, she handed them to you with a small smile, glancing over uneasily at Sunset.
You thanked the nurse, then nudged Sunset’s shoulder. “Thanks,” she murmured. The nurse nodded and walked away.
“Please be kind to them, okay?” You begged. “This type of job isn’t usually easy. A lot of the people who work here see some horrible things, and I really don’t want to add to it.” She glanced at you for a moment, then up at the clock on the wall, then fully turned to you again. “Is that why you’re acting like your broken leg isn’t that big of a deal?”
You shrugged. After a small pause, you nodded. “Yeah, kind of, but I’m also getting really tired now that the adrenaline is starting to wear off, so I feel more like I’m going to pass out than what I can feel because of my leg.” She frowned, brows furrowed together deeply in concern.
With a bit of a struggle, you managed to take both of the pills and finish off the bottle of water. Twenty minutes passed before they kicked in, but you couldn’t help but finally relax a little bit when a decent amount of the pain drifted away into more of a muted sensation. Sunset noticed, smiling weakly when she saw your features rest from their previously pained expression. She sighed, trying to stand from her chair to go up to the desk again, though you grabbed her by the wrist and stopped her.
“Sunset, please, just stay over here with me. I’ve been watching the other people go back before me, and the receptionist is right: they really do need to be seen before me. Three of them had to be carried in on a stretcher for god’s sake. I don’t want you to keep getting upset with the people here. I just want you to sit here with me, okay?”
Against every part of her that screamed for her to go up to the counter anyway, she listened to you with a nod and sat back down, slipping her hand into yours and lacing your fingers together. “Okay,” she whispered. When you smiled at her and shifted over to let your head fall against her shoulder, she couldn’t help but grin and tilt her own head to rest on top of yours.
For a moment, it was silent between the two of you. She made a small comment, though. “I’m so tempted to kick Rainbow’s ass when I see her again tomorrow.” You snickered and shook your head, rolling your eyes. “Please don’t. She didn’t mean to do it. Plus, we don’t need another person from our friend group coming here for a broken bone.” You thought for a moment, recalling how violent Sunset could get during fights.
“Well, we don’t need her coming here for several broken bones.”
She hummed and giggled before silence fell between you again.
You had nearly fallen asleep because of the pills by the time you were finally called back to be seen. They brought out a wheelchair, which you were helped into, and then wheeled you back into a room for x-rays to see how severe the break was. Sunset stood outside the door until she was allowed in. The moment she entered, she stood by your side as you rested as best as you could on the small bed.
Briefly after the x-rays were finished, a doctor came in and explained that the break wasn’t too bad, which you found hard to believe considering how much pain you had been feeling in the past couple of hours. Still, the doctor went on with the plan for treatment. She explained that all you would need to do is have your leg readjusted into place, then wear a cast for about two months, making sure to take it easy.
Sunset listened closely to what would be needed for treatment, making a mental list of everything she’d need to do to help you fully recover. She held your hand and never thought to complain when you squeezed it to a painful degree as they shifted the broken part of your leg back into place. The cast was molded and wrapped around your leg. You whined at how uncomfortable it was, making a comment to Sunset that you weren’t looking forward to feeling it against your skin for the next two months. She laughed softly and assured you that it was for the better.
Once you were finally discharged, you were given crutches and helped out into the waiting room again so Sunset could give her information to pay. After everything was settled, you bumped Sunset in the arm and motioned towards the same receptionist from before. She sighed and turned to her. “Sorry about earlier,” she started. “I was just really stressed out about everything. I didn’t mean to get so… aggressive.”
Surprisingly, the receptionist smiled and shook her head. “It’s alright, I completely understand. I acted the same way when my son broke his arm. This kind of stuff happens all the time, unfortunately. I’ve been through worse, so don't worry about it.” For the first time that evening, Sunset smiled at someone other than you. A few more words of parting were shared before you were led back out to the car.
The pain killers had kicked into overdrive by the time you were buckled into the passenger seat. You dozed off from the moment you could hear the comforting hum of the engine, and you didn’t wake up until you felt yourself being carried yet again. You looked around, confused, then glanced up at Sunset.
“Where are we? This isn’t my house.” She grinned weakly. “I know, but I really want to be able to keep an eye on you until those meds wear off. I’ll just let you crash at my place tonight, okay?” You nodded, too exhausted from everything to argue. Instead, you let her hold you close as she walked upstairs to her apartment, lay you down on your usual side of her bed, and essentially tuck you in for the night.
Before you could fully crash again, she briefly lifted the covers from your form to tuck a couple of pillows under your broken leg for elevation. It only took her a moment to leave the room and return with a cold glass of water, which she put on the nightstand beside you. Lazily, she climbed into her side and bundled up under the covers before pulling your head into her chest from the side.
“You okay? Do you need anything else?” Yawning, you shook your head. She hummed and nodded in response.
As your eyes fell shut and your body fell limp, you could feel Sunset shuffling around uncomfortably beside you. “What’s wrong?” You asked quietly, almost too softly for her to hear. “I’m just pissed at Rainbow Dash,” she admitted, rubbing the fatigue from her eyes. “I don’t understand why. She didn’t mean to,” you replied. “I get that, but she still should’ve been more careful. I don’t get why she has to be aggressive all the time when it comes to sports.”
You bit your tongue and smirked at that, resisting the urge to comment on her own anger issues that flared up randomly. With a bit of a strained effort, you slipped your arm beneath her and did your best to hug her close from the side, pressing a small chaste kiss to her collarbone.
“Well, then just talk to her about it tomorrow, okay? I’m sure you can work things out.” Sighing heavily, she nodded and pulled you closer, letting her own eyes close. “Yeah, okay, I guess you’re right.” For a moment, you thought she was on the verge of falling asleep, save for the feeling of her fingertips dragging themselves against your skin and tracing random patterns. She spoke up, however. “You’re gonna have to be there with me though. Otherwise I’m going to lose my cool.” You couldn’t help but let out a tired chuckle.
“Deal.”
⚠️ BLOOD ⚠️
So, my friend introduced me to a my little pony horror au called my little worms. It was pretty damn disturbing and used a lot of vulgar language. There are also many other aus in mlp that are apocalyptic like this. The reason I’m bringing this up is because I was inspired by these kinds of aus and made an edit of an apocalyptic Sunset Shimmer. Here you go.
(Btw, you can find most of these kinds of AUs on TikTok)
For a second I thought it was an anime screenshot of Sunset Shimmer and a frizzy haired Rarity… my bad.

When someone talks crap about Hamilton:
So, after watching Equestria Girls Forgotten Friendship two Saturdays ago, I decided to make this little Sunset x Twilight music video.
Aiight, saw the poll to get people to look at your art, I'm obsessed now:
Could you draw Sunset Shimmer from My Little Pony Equestria Girls? I am addicted to her right now and would like her in more people's artstyles. You can draw her as a human or a pony or both. Post redemption, pre redemption, ponied-up, angel creature, raging she-demon----whatever would be fun for you!
(Also, yes, draw Miku in your everyday clothes)
Thanks so much! Back to lurking, BYE!
