Valentines Day

Previous Chapter

At Everfree Academy, the students were finishing up their last classes before the final bell rang. When they left the classrooms and roamed the hall, Spike was walking along side Thorax and Button.

“So, Thorax, hoping to get some Valentines Day chocolates from someone special?” Button teased.

Thorax blushed, “Well, I have no one specific in mind.”

“Well, I'm hoping for it. I'd love to finally get some homemade chocolate from a girl. And not just given store bought regular chocolate out of pity.”

As Button and Thorax spoke, Spike thought to Drakon, 'Valentines Day, huh? In the past that was my least fave holiday. I never got a single valentines day card from any classmates, not even simply out of pity.'

'No kidding. But look at it this way, now you have so many girlfriends to spend the holiday with.' the spirit thought back.

“Spike!” Thorax and Button spoke up snapping him out of his thoughts.

“Huh? What?”

“We were asking if you had any plans for Valentines with Twilight and the others.” Button explained.

“Well, nothing at the moment, but we'll come up with something.”

“Sure must feel good having people to spend Valentines Day with.” Thorax said.

“Especially with so many.” Button added.

“Tell me about it.” Spike replied with a laugh.

“Well, I gotta go. Catch you all later.” Thorax said as he left.

“See ya, Thorax.” the two said.

“Later, Spike.” Button said taking his leave.

“Bye, Button.” Spike said, before he headed for home.

As Spike walked for his place, Drakon spoke, “You know for your first valentines day with the girls you should do something nice for them.”

“Like some super grand gesture?” Spike asked.

“Not saying you need to go over the top. But do something nice for them. Even a simple show of it.”

“True.” Spike admitted, before wondering, “Wonder what Twilight and the others will do?”


Meanwhile later on at Sugarcube Corner, Spike's eleven girlfriends were meeting at a booth.

“Good, we're all here.” Twilight began, as they nodded.

“Now then, as we're all aware it's Valentines Day coming up.” Rarity noted.

“Uh-huh.” Pinkie nodded.

“And this year we all have someone to spend it with.” Apple Bloom noted, as everyone thought of Spike.

“And with the way things were for him in the past this is his chance to have a good Valentines day.” Loona added.

“Correct,” Twilight confirmed, “Even if Spike doesn't feel confident enough to do anything for us, the least we can do is something for him.”

“Ya darn right,” Applejack agreed, “Spike deserves a good Valentines day with all he had to go through.”

“And we're the girlfriends to give it to him.” Rainbow put in.

“And it'll be the first time I can actually celebrate Valentines myself.” Loona added.

“Really? Fluttershy asked.

“With your looks, we're surprised at that.” Scootaloo said.

“Haven't you gotten any before?” Sunset inquired.

“Oh, yeah, but they've always been from some clueless lover boys.” Loona answered.

“I know the feeling, darling.” Rarity replied.

“Anyway, we're gonna do something very special for Spike.” Twilight said.

“But what?” Fluttershy wondered.

Twilight smiled before turning to Pinkie, “Pinkie.”

Pinkie who had been smirking began, “I happened to get permission from the Cakes to use the kitchen here on Valentines Day so we can bake something super extra tasty for us and Spike to share as lovers.”

“If we all put some effort into making it it'll feel like it came from all our hearts.” Rarity said.

“Cheesy, but it makes sense.” Loona admitted.

“And when it's done we'll take it back to his place and share it together.” Pinkie concluded.

“Exactly.” Twilight confirmed.

“It's an awesome idea.” Rainbow smirked.

“Uh-huh.” Scootaloo agreed.

“So we're gonna do it?”

“I think so.” Fluttershy replied.

“So let's do it!” Sunset cheered, as the rest of the girls cheered.


A montage played over the course of the next few days, Spike was hard at work doing something for his girls. Spike had scissors, paper, and markers and was busy designing something special for each of his girlfriends.

When Valentines Day arrived the school was decorated with hearts and cupids all around to celebrate the holiday. Spike walked to the school gate to see Twilight and the others.

“Hey, girls!” he called to them.

“Spike!” they called back as he approached them and gave them all a kiss.

“Happy Valentines Day, Spike.” Twilight greeted him.

“Happy Valentines to you all as well.” he replied.

“How're you feeling today, Spike?” Sunset asked.

“You know, I actually feel great.”

“We do too.” Fluttershy said.

“And we got a special Valentines Day plan for you today.” Rainbow nudged him.

“You do?”

“That's right.” Sunset confirmed.

“But that'll be for after school.” Apple Bloom said.

“Well, I got something for you girls too. But I'll give them to you once Loona is with us... She is joining us, isn't she?”

“Of course.” Sweetie Belle confirmed.

“Oh, good.”

“Come on, we better get inside.” Twilight insisted, as they hurried inside.

Spike went to his locker and upon opening it a flood of Valentines day cards poured out and onto the floor.

“What the?” he asked, as Drakon chuckled.

“Ooh, someone's popular today.”

“Wow. All of these for me?” Spike asked in disbelief, as he started picking them all up and stuffing them inside his bag, “I'll have to look at all of these later.”

“Might take you all night.” Drakon noted.

“I'll worry about that later.” Spike said, before heading for homeroom.

As Spike walked he saw Celestia and Luna walking by, “Good morning, Spike.” they greeted.

“Uh, good morning, Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna.” he greeted back.

“And how're you this morning?” Luna inquired.

“I'm doing good.”

“We're glad to hear it. Hope you have a good Valentines Day.” Celestia smiled.

“Thanks, I will.” Spike answered, as the two walked on giving him one last smile, before Drakon spoke.

“Earth to Spike! Class!”

“Oh, right!” Spike hurried inside the classroom.

When Spike took his seat several of the female students were wishing him happy valentines day much to the other boys jealousy, while Twilight sat by knowing this was to be expected given Spike's popularity. Throughout the day with every class Spike went to the female student body were constantly wishing him Happy Valentines Day, while the rest of the girls show shared certain classes with him felt a bit jealous to see their classmates flirting with their man.

Eventually the day came to an end, and Spike went back to his locker to grab what he needed. When he got all his stuff he walked for the school entrance to see the girls.

“So, what's this big Valentines Day plan you girls have?” he asked.

“That'll be for later, Spikey-Wikey.” Rarity answered with a tut-tut.

“What say we come over to your place tonight?” Applejack suggested.

“That way we can exchange our valentines there?” Twilight asked.

“Sounds good to me.”

“Then we'll see you then.” Sunset said, as the girls kissed Spike before heading out while he headed for home.


The girls rendezvoused with Loona outside Sugarcube Corner before going inside. Mr. Cake showed them into the kitchen and the area in which they would be working on their valentines gift for Spike while the couple continued to use it to run their business. The girls outfitted themselves with aprons and hairnets before getting to work.

Most of them followed Pinkie's instructions since the kitchen was her sanctuary. Some like Apple Bloom, Rainbow, Loona, and Sunset were bringing over the ingredients, while Twilight, Rarity, and Fluttershy were measuring the ingredients before applying them to the bowl where Pinkie and Applejack were stirring and mixing. There was a moment where Fluttershy, Rainbow, and Loona got some flour all over their faces resulting in some of the others laughing. Rainbow retaliated by sprinkling some flour at them, and before long they were all covered in flour.

Despite their small horseplay they poured the contents into a pan and popped it in the oven before waiting as it baked. Eventually the timer dinged, and they gently brought it out of the oven to reveal a delicious looking chocolate cake.

“Oh, that looks so good.” Rainbow salivated.

“I'll say.” Loona said equally drawn to its chocolaty goodness.

“Not just yet you two.” Pinkie warned them before they thought about tasting it.

“Now that it's baked it must be decorated.” Twilight said.

“Of course.” Rarity agreed.

“And once it's done we can head over to Spike's.” Sweetie Belle added.


With Spike, as soon as he got home, he started checking through the various valentines day cards left to him in his locker by his classmates.

“Jeez so many left me valentines. From Octavia, Cloudchaser, Flitter, Night Glider, Vinyl Scratch, Amethyst Star, the list goes on.” he told Drakon and Peewee.

“Yeah. I'd say just about every female in the student body left you one.” Drakon chuckled.

Spike picked up the next one and saw who it was from, “Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna?”

“Ooh, this out to be good.” Drakon said eager to see.

Spike opens the envelope to see a simple Happy Valentines Day message, before finding something behind it. He lifted it up to reveal a picture that made him blush and gawk. The picture was of Celestia and Luna who were wearing the Everfree Academy girls uniform while posing flirtatiously for Spike. While the uniforms they wore looked like they fit, they still looked a little snug on the two ladies.

“Well, now this is quite a gift from those two.” Drakon chuckled.

“I don't even know how they got those uniforms,” Spike began, “Or how they got into them that well?”

Soon he heard the doorbell ring startling him, “Oh, no. It's the girls. I got to hide all these!” he took all the valentines cards from his classmates and the one from Celestia and Luna, putting them back in his bag before throwing it in his bedroom closet.

After calming himself down and straightening himself out, he answered the door to see the girls, “Hi, girls.”

“Hi, Spike!” they greeted back before entering the house and giving Spike a kiss.

Loona was the last to enter and spoke, “Happy Valentines Day, Spike.”

“Happy Valentines Day, Loona.” Spike replied, as the two kissed.

“Come here, Spike. Sit down.” Twilight said, as Spike was brought over to his sofa.

“We all chipped in to make this for this.” Fluttershy said as they placed a box on the coffee table.

“From us to you. Ta-dah!” Pinkie cheered as she opened the lid.

Spike looked and saw a delicious chocolate cake decorated in frosting and sprinkles, with icing spelling out 'Happy Valentines Day Spike'.

“Girls.” Spike gasped.

“Happy Valentines Day, sugarcube.” Applejack smiled.

“What do you think?” Sunset inquired, as the rest of the girls were curious.

“I-I love it!” he answered happily.

“Really?” Fluttershy asked hopefully.

“I sure do.”

“Thank you, Spike.” Twilight smiled.

“And here. I made each of you these.” Spike pulled out his valentines cards for each of them, “I know it's not much.”

“Darling, anything from you is plenty.” Rarity assured, as each of them opened their envelope to see the valentines cards addressed to them were themed based off their individual hobbies and quirks. With each one addressed different by Spike.

“My Shining Star.” Twilight smiled with a tear.

“My Sweet Sugar Cookie.” Pinkie smiled brightly.

“The Apple of my Eye.” Applejack wiped a tear from her eye.

“My Tiny Dancer.” Apple Bloom sighed happily.

“My Track Star.” Rainbow smirked with pride.

“My Diamond in the Sky.” Rarity smiled happily

“My Melodious Songbird.” Sweetie Belle had tears of happiness in her eyes.

“My Ambitious Daredevil.” Scootaloo smiled.

“My Blazing Sun.” Sunset Shimmer smiled.

“My Cuddly Bunny.” Fluttershy smiled with tears of joy.

“My Wolf of the Night.” Loona finished while blushing.

The girls looked to Spike who was curious about what they thought, “So what do you think?”

“WE LOVE THEM!” they cheered their hearts out.

“Really? Even though they're handmade written?”

“You made these all up on your own.” Twilight noted.

“And the effort you put into making them all makes them even better.” Rarity commended them.

“In short. They're the best valentines we could get from you.” Loona concluded.

“Thanks, girls. I'm glad you love them.” Spike said gratefully, as they all embraced him, “Now then why don't we all enjoy this cake together?”

“Sounds good to us.” Sunset replied.

“You bet.” Rainbow agreed.

They each grabbed a fork and dug into the cake while watching a rom-com movie. Spike and his girls laughed, cried, and swooned at the various moments in the feature, but what mattered most to them is they were all together to enjoy it.


Once the cake was finished and the movie over, they all cleaned up, before getting ready to head home.

“Thanks for stopping by, girls. I really appreciate it.” Spike said.

“Anytime, Spike.” Twilight replied before giving him a kiss.

“Happy Valentines Day.” Sunset said, as the rest of the girls gave him a kiss.

“Happy Valentines Day, girls. See you later.”

When all the girls left, Spike locked the door and sighed lovingly, “This has been the best Valentines Day in my whole life.”

Drakon snickered, “You say that now. Just think about what they might do next year.”

“Even so, this turned out be good for all of us.” Spike said, as he cleaned up further before turning in for the night.
