The Girls of My Life 2: Old Flames and New Flames
Shopping with the Twins
Previous ChapterNext ChapterOne afternoon, Spike had just finished his shift at the bar and was skateboarding around town. Everywhere he rolled he kept taking in the scenery still finding it hard to believe he was back in his childhood home. Upon making a turn he saw sitting at a table by a coffee shop was Sunshine and Moonlight. He shifted direction and boarded over to them. Upon reaching them he pulled to a halt and got off his board.
"Afternoon, you two." he greeted them.
"Hi, Spike." Moonlight greeted.
"Good afternoon, Spike." Sunshine greeted.
"So what brings you two here?" Spike asked, as he took a seat with them.
"Just stopped in to get a cappuccino," Moonlight answered, "You?"
"I was just coming back from the bar after finishing my shift. I saw you two and decided to see what was up."
"We just wanted to grab a drink, and we'll be heading over to mall later just for a little clothes shopping." Sunshine explained.
"Is there a sale?" Spike inquired.
"That's right." Moonlight confirmed.
"Well, mind if I join you two?" he offered.
The twins were taken aback by Spike's request as Sunshine spoke, "Well, not at all. Though I didn't think clothes shopping would be your thing."
Spike smirked, "Let's just say I have a friend back in Canterlot who taught me a thing or two about styling. And I do like to make sure I dress as good as I feel good."
"Well, if you want you can come." Moonlight answered.
"Wicked," Spike said with joy, "I'm gonna grab me a quick latte, be back in a bit." Spike went inside the shop.
When it was just the two, Sunshine giggled, "Moony, this is perfect. We can use this as an excuse to get to know Spike some more."
"Sounds like a plan to me." Moonlight admitted.
Later on, Spike and the twins had headed for the closest mall in town. It wasn't as big in the one in Canterlot, but it had all the shops Spike enjoyed from comics, to sports, music, clothing, an arcade, and a food court. Spike looked around feeling impressed, "It's no Canterlot mall, but this looks good enough."
"We're glad you feel that way about it." Sunshine admitted.
"We were afraid you'd feel like the town has nothing for you now." Moonlight added.
"Well, it still is going to take some adjusting, but you just gotta make do with what you have here," Spike answered, as they stopped before the biggest clothing store in the mall, "So this is the place?"
"Yeah. We get all our best clothes here." Sunshine explained.
"It only has the best." Moonlight put in.
"Come on, let's check it out." Spike said, as the three entered.
They walked inside seeing many outsides on display on mannequins, folded on shelves, even hanging up on racks, "Wow, they really got new choices in since we last came here." Moonlight said, while looking around.
"I know. I don't know where to even start." Sunshine added.
"Well, wherever you start at will surely be the right choice." Spike said.
"With us helping, they'll totally know where to begin. Literally" a female voice began.
The three looked over and saw two more girls about the twins ages standing close by wearing work tags. The first girl had long silky light purplish gray hair, light cerulean colored eyes, and a D-cup bust line. The second was the tallest of the two because of her very long seductive legs. She had dark grayish violet and violet gray hair done up in twin braids held by little bat elastic bands, moderate persian blue eyes, and an E-cup bust. Both girls were dressed in store employers attire with the shorter one wearing a pale light grayish apple green vest, and the tallest wearing a light persian bluish gray vest.
"Lily!" Sunshine cheered, as she went over to the shorter girl and embraced.
"Sunny!" The girl named Lily cheered happily.
Moonlight walked over to the taller girl and spoke, "Inky." she greeted in her stoic tone.
"Moony." the girl named Inky greeted in an equally deadpan tone.
Spike looked back between the two groups of girls noticing the similarities, and thought to himself, 'Freaky.'
"Spike, come over here." Moonlight beckoned him.
Spike walked over, as the two other girls looked at him curiously. Sunshine spoke up, "Girls, this is our childhood friend, Spike Drake."
"Spike, this is Lily Lace and Inky Rose." Moonlight introduced them.
"Uh, nice to meet you." Spike greeted casually.
"OMG it is literally fabulous to meet you too." Lily greeted.
"Sup?" Inky greeted, as Spike looked awkward feeling as if he was talking to Maud Pie.
"So, you all know each other?" Spike inquired.
"Inky and Lily are up and coming fashion designers, but for now they're working here at the mall." Moonlight explained.
"We know all the best designs here inside and out." Lily boasted.
Inky looked Spike over, "You got a good look going for you. But it could use more black."
"Thanks... I think." Spike answered, not sure how to take that.
"So is there anything new to try on today?" Sunshine asked hopefully.
"Oh my Gosh, we literally have received a new shipment of outfits that just came in today." Lily explained.
"You can try them on before anybody else does." Inky offered.
"Awesome." Moonlight smiled.
"And how would you like to judge them?" Lily asked Spike.
"Me? Judge?" Spike asked before seeing Sunshine and Moonlight giving him hopeful looks, "Well, ok." he smiled.
"Yes!" Sunshine cheered while hugging Moonlight close.
And so they went to the dressing room area, where Sunshine and Moonlight were given a set of clothes in their respective styles. Spike waited with Lily and Inky, as the two each stepped out wearing one outfits matching their bright or dark personas. Spike in turn would give them approving looks, thumb's up, and nods of approval. Finally the two came out wearing a lovely dress each. Sunshine's was bright and colorful, while Moonlight's was dark and sparkly like stars.
Spike looked at them and gasped for not only how beautiful the twins looked, but for a deeper reason as well, 'Those dresses. They're Rarity's design.' he thought about Rarity and the rest of the girls knowing how much they miss him as much as he did them.
"Spike?" Sunshine asked.
"Hey, Spike?" Moonlight asked.
"Spike, you in there?" Lily asked as she knocked on his head.
Spike snapped out of his stupor and spoke, "Huh? What? Did you say something?"
"You looked out of it," Inky noted, "Do they not look good in these dresses?"
Spike looked seeing Sunshine pouting adorably, while Moonlight had a brow raised. Realizing what they were getting at, he quickly answered, "No! Of course they look great in them. Sunshine and Moonlight looked great in everything."
"Really?" Sunshine asked hopefully.
"Uh-huh." Spike nodded in confirmation.
"Thanks." Moonlight smiled.
"We'll take these." Sunshine told the two girls who nodded feeling glad they pleased their customers.
After paying for their outfits, Spike spoke, "Well, I guess we'll see you around."
"Come back any time." Inky said.
"We'll be waiting." Lily said.
"We will." Sunshine said, as the three left the store.
When the two were alone, Lily turned to Inky, "Wasn't he totally hot?"
Inky smiled, "Yeah. He really was."
Later on at the Food Court, the three were having a pizza slice each while relaxing, "This is good." Spike said, as he took a bite of his slice, while looking at the latest issue of The Power Princesses.
"So when did you get interested in a series like the Power Princesses?" Moonlight inquired.
"It sort of just happened when I happened into Canterlot Mall's book shop. I happened upon it feeling attracted by the cover art. I read it and I became obsessed with them. These girls kick serious ass, and look so good doing it to. Plus Humdrum is lucky to be surrounded by them. Those girls just dote, fawn, and spoil him to no end. Any guy would want to be him."
"Would you?" Sunshine asked.
Spike paused knowing he was already living the life of Humdrum in a way, but answered, "It would be interesting to live a life like that."
"Especially surrounded by beautiful girls." Moonlight raised a brow at Spike, who chuckled sheepishly.
Sunshine giggled at Spike's reaction, "In any case, it's nice we got to spend some time here together."
"I agree," Spike replied, "The more time I spend with familiar faces the more I feel comfortable with being back in this town."
"You mean it?" Moonlight asked.
"Oh, yeah. Though curiously, where do you two plan to go once you're out of college?" Spike wondered, "I mean do you plan to stay here forever?"
"Well, no," Sunshine admitted, "Personally I'd like to go someplace else. Maybe a nice, quiet town where I can open up a daycare center for the kids."
"I'd like to go someplace in the city. Somewhere where I can work on my poetry in peace." Moonlight added.
"Sounds like good places." Spike admitted.
"Though where would you like to go when you graduate from college, Spike?" Sunshine wondered.
"Hmm. Probably go back to Canterlot, or even Manehattan. That city's always loaded with excitement."
"Well, wherever you decide to go..." Moonlight began.
"And wherever we go in the future..." Sunshine continued, "We'll never forget each other this time around."
"Here-here." Spike agreed, as the three clinked their drinks together.
As the day got late, Spike walked the girls back to their place, "Thanks for walking us home, Spike." Sunshine said.
"We really appreciate it." Moonlight added.
"Any time, girls. Well, I better get back too." Spike said, as he was about to leave, only for Moonlight to pull him back.
"Before you go, Spike. Let me show you my sincerest appreciation to you for spending time with me and my sister." Moonlight began, as she pulled spike close and planted her lips on Spike's.
Spike was taken by surprise at Moonlight's action, but started melting into the heated moment as he wrapped his arms around Moonlight's waist. Moonlight deepened the kiss while pressing her impressive bosom into his chest, which made Spike's body tingle all over.
When they parted, Spike was wide eyed with a blush on his face. Moonlight spoke with a smile, "I wanted to do that the moment I saw you after all these years."
Moonlight released Spike, allowing her giggling sister to wrap her arms around Spike to hold him close to her. Sunshine kissed Spike while pressing her chest into his own to entice him. This act once again left Spike surprised, while the twins smiled at his cute reaction.
"We'll see you tomorrow, Spike. Pleasant dreams." Sunshine said, as she and Moonlight went inside. Spike stood at the bottom of the porch, before getting on his skateboard and rolled off into the night.
Inside the twins home, the girls were in their bedroom talking, "He's got a good pair of lips, doesn't he Moony?" Sunshine asked.
"He sure does, Sunny. He was kissing with his full heart and soul." Moonlight agreed.
"Hope he also liked how close we got to him." Sunshine nudged her.
"Based off his reaction, I'm sure he loved it." Moonlight smiled, as the two sighed lovingly.
Meanwhile, Spike was in his bedroom lying on his bed staring up at the ceiling with so much running through his head, "What is wrong with me? Why did I succumb to that? I mean it was amazing from both of them, but still... My girls." he looked back at his picture of himself and his Canterlot girls.
