A Boy's Dazzling Girls
Bookworm's Date
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAt the public library one day, Twilight Sparkle and Moondancer were busy going through various books just for studying. Moondancer whispered to Twilight, "So, Twilight, how's Spike been doing lately?"
Twilight looked over at Moondancer, "You're asking me? Don't you two attend the same club together?"
"Yeah, but I never really have too big of a chance to talk to him privately."
"I can imagine the way Adagio, Aria, and Sonata surround him so much."
"I know. Watching them constantly shoot looks at Spike during club time gets annoying," Moondancer continued, and thought to herself, 'Especially since I want to be alone with Spike once in awhile.'
"But to answer your question, Spike is doing good. As good as a teenage boy can get." Twilight answered.
"Understandable." Moondancer replied.
"Why, did you want to go out with him or something?" Twilight teased.
"What?" Moondancer asked a bit loud, but quickly covered her mouth, "I mean, what're you talking about?"
"Come on, Moondancer, how long have we known each other?" Twilight asked rhetorically.
"Since we were kids."
"Exactly. I know when something piques your interest. And you appear to be interested in Spike," Twilight deduced, "If you want to go out with him, just ask."
"Really? You don't mind if I asked him?" Moondancer asked.
"I'm his sister, but I'm not his keeper or anything." Twilight answered trying to prove her friends wrong about how possessive she is when it concerns Spike.
"Well, if you think so I'll take the chance and ask him myself. Thank, Twi." Moondancer said, as she got up and left the library.
Twilight sighed and thought to herself, 'I hope Spike says yes. Having him hang out with others besides those Dazzlings will do him some good.'
Moondancer left the library, pulled out her cellphone, and began texting Spike, "Spike, are you doing anything right now?" She waited for an answer, before a new text message popped up from Spike.
"Not at the moment no. Why?"
Moondancer began texting back, "Well, I was wondering if you'd like to check out the comic book shop and see what new issues of what are in yet." she sent the message.
Spike replied back with a message, "Sure. I'll meet ya there. Ok?"
"Ok," Moondancer texted back and smiled, "Success!" she cheered, before heading off.
Outside the comic shop Spike had just arrived before looking around for Moondancer, "Where could she be?" he asked himself.
"Spike!" Moondancer called, as she came down the block.
"Moondancer, hey." he greeted.
"Sorry to keep you waiting." the apologized.
"Don't worry. I just got here myself."
"Great. So shall we go in?"
"Let's." Spike answered, as they went inside.
The two looked around the shop seeing many comics on shelves. While Moondancer was a bookworm like Twilight, she did enjoy other things in life like comic books. When Spike found out about that even he was surprised at that. But it also gave him and Moondancer something to bond over.
Moondancer looked at some comics, "Dang, still nothing on the update for Magical Girl Nyan Nyan's newest issue."
"Bummer. But at least the new copy for Super Robot Lizard Squad is out." Spike noted.
"Ooh, I've wanted to see how that goes." Moondancer said with excitement.
"Well, let me buy it and we'll find out together." Spike said, as he went and paid for it.
Later the two were in the park reading the comic while enjoying an ice cream cone each, "Oh, these guys never cease to entertain me." Spike said, as they finished the volume.
"I'll say. Now I can't wait for the next issue." Moondancer added.
"Well, another month and we'll find out what happens next."
Moondancer nodded, and spoke, "It's actually nice that we can do something like this, Spike. I mean outside school and club activity."
"Yeah. And at first I thought you'd just be a friend of my sisters. But I'm glad you and I have something we can enjoy together."
"So am I," Moondancer smiled, until the two looked over and saw a small ball of light flying around closer to the bushes, "What's that?"
"Let's take a look." Spike suggested, as they walked to the bushes.
They looked into it and saw a hollow, "Where does this lead?" Moondancer asked.
"Only one way to find out." Spike answered, as he started crawling through it, with Moondancer following behind.
"Jeez how far does this go?" Moondancer called to Spike.
"With our luck all the way to the next town. Or Wonderland." Spike joked.
"Just keep crawling." Moondancer said dryly.
Spike looked ahead and saw an opening, "I think we made it." the two reached the opening and climbed out of the tunnel. They looked ahead seeing more bushes. They pulled them apart and saw little houses hanging by trees, and flying around were multiple balls of colored lights
"Look." Moondancer gasped.
They saw the balls of light were actually fairies, "I think we found some kind of fairy hollow." Spike gasped.
"It's beautiful." Moondancer said in awe.
Spike quickly grabbed Moondancer and brought her down so they were covered by the bushes, "I don't think these fairies are particularly friends with humans."
"How so?" Mondancer asked.
"I've seen enough media to tell these kind of creatures are the easiest frightened and will flitter away the moment they see something bigger than them." Spike continued.
"Oye! Are ya done gossiping to each other? Because we can hear ya!" a voice with an accent spoke to them.
The two teens jumped and looked up seeing a fairy descend below. He was blue skinned and wore a black outfit. He had a stern expression on his face, which meant he was not pleased, "Who're you?" Spike asked in shock.
"I lead this here fairy tribe. Name's Seabreeze. What're you humans doing in our hollow?" the fairy demanded.
"We saw something fly into the tunnel so we just followed to see what it was." Moondancer explained.
Seabreeze upon hearing that groaned before turning to the various fairies, "What have I told ya about coverin' yer tracks? When comin' home make sure ya weren't followed!" he sighed, before speaking to the teens, "Ya have to excuse the lot of them. They ain't exactly the brightest bunch."
"Right," Spike began, "Listen, we're sorry we trespassed. We had no intention of doing so."
"Well, I can't be too mad. I mean it ain't easy for your folk to actually find our hollow. No one has in hundreds of years." the lead fairy answered.
"Hundreds of years?" Spike asked.
"You fairy folk really do have long lifespans." Moondancer said.
"That we do," Seabreeze answered, as he landed on her shoulder, "Our kind has ben around for ages. In fact it's our job to take care of the land when seasons change."
"It is?" Spike asked.
"Correct. We tend to the leaves and flowers when the seasons change giving them the appropriate color for fall before the frost sets in. And when winter ends, we give the flora life and color again."
"Sounds like a big job for one so small. No offense to any of you." Spike told the fairies.
"None taken," Seabreeze answered, "It's a big job, but it's what we do. Now then, what to do with you?"
"With us?" Moondancer asked.
"You discovered our hollow. Surely ya didn't think we'd let ya walk away now that ya've seen too much." Seabreeze said with a smirk.
"We came here by accident. Please." Moondancer pleaded.
"We swear we'll never tell another soul of your existence!" Spike begged the lead fairy.
The fairies gathered around in a huddle and started debating on what to do. The teens could only wait in worry and hope the cosmos was on their side. The fairies broke their huddle, as Seabreeze spoke, "After talking it over we've decided... To let you go."
"Really?" they asked hopefully.
Seabreeze nodded, "Even from when I first saw ya two I could tell ya had honest hearts. That's another thing about being a fairy. We know the good humans when we see them."
"Thank you, Mr. Seabreeze." Spike replied gratefully.
"Just Seabreeze will do, uh... What did ya your names were?"
"Spike."
"And I'm Moondancer."
"Well, then Spike and Moondancer. We trust you will keep our existence a secret and never tell another soul?"
"We promise." Moondancer answered.
Seabreeze smiled, "Then, we fairies bid you farewell. And if you end up wandering back here again, we'll be sure to have a table set for ya. In case ya ever wanted to have dinner."
"Sweet plan." Spike said, as he and Moondancer went back through the burrow's tunnel.
The teens returned to the park and got themselves together, "That seriously just happened back there, didn't it?" Spike asked Moondancer.
"It sure did." she replied.
"Well, that marks another mythological creature that exists. Fairies."
"We promised Seabreeze we wouldn't tell anyone of their existence, remember?"
"I know. Guess it's something the club itself will never know." Spike said, before smiling at Moondancer, "But at least we'll know it."
"Yeah." Moondancer smiled.
As it was getting late, Spike walked Moondancer back to her place, "Thanks for spending the day with me, Spike. I really enjoyed it."
"Me too. Even up to the point we happened upon a small civilization." he joked, and Moondancer giggled.
The two looked each other in the eyes before they leaned closer and kissed. When they parted, the two looked surprised, "That felt good." Moondancer gasped.
"Yeah." Spike agreed.
"Well, I'll see you in school." she said.
"Later, Moondancer." Spike said, as he took off for home.
At Spike's place, after dinner he washed up and went to his room where he began re-reading the comic he bought, while also thinking about Moondancer, "I've actually spent time with girls that aren't the Dazzlings. It was a good pace, but when I was with those three I almost felt like I liked it more than just as a friendly date. Could I be falling for them the way the Dazzlings are with me? I mean I like the Dazzlings a lot. But I have these feelings for all six girls? The Dazzlings probably won't like that." he feared.
