My Little Dashie: Fifth Is A Gift.

it has been a few weeks since dashie became engaged. and with the pony gang and my suspitions of forest subsiding, this is turning out to look like it will be a nice wedding. initially dashie,as well as forest, wanted a simple,small wedding, but rarity being rarity, convinced them to go big or go home.

rarity booked the crystal castle, Yeha, the entire crystal castle. to have the wedding there, i don't even want to know how she did it. and frankly, i don't really care. i am just so excited that my little girl was getting married. and to the pony that extended my life by about a month so many years ago.

i gave up on my investigations into forest' past so long ago. but if he hurts my dashie in anyway, he will regret it for all eternity. he still seems to have zero memory of his past. but again, i don't care, seeing as i gave up the investigation. i just hope that dashie is absolutely sure that this is what she wants. i think it is.

the wedding is only a few days away, and with every pony rushing to get things down to the last,perfect,detail. and me helping when and where i can, i haven't had any time to spend with dashie. at least i get to walk her down the aisle on her big day.

well, today is the day. dashie woke me up rather early,around 4 am, she was shaking me. i looked into her beautiful, rose rimmed, eyes. "yeah?" she stops shaking me. "dad we have to go soon if we want to be there on time. "OK." i said,getting up. "let me just get dressed." "OK but hurry." i smile. "OK i will." i say as i walk up the stairs. i few minutes later i hear a now frantic rainbow dash banging on my door.

"come on dad we need to goooo." she keeps banging on my door harder each time. until the door finally swings open, luckily i was just putting on my shoes, so she didn't see anything he hasn't already before. i chuckle as i notice she gets more and more impatient with each passing second. i stood up.

"OK let's go." she grunts. "finally, let's go." as we are on the train to the crystal empire, i can tell dashie is getting nervous. i hug her. "it's OK honey, i'm here." she smiles and hugs me back. "thank's dad, i love you."

"i love you too." we end our embrace when dashie starts crying tears,not of sadness, but joy. and rarity starts freaking out about ruining her dress. for the rest of the ride there, we just sat there, staring out the window. i never saw forest on the train, i got curious and asked dashie.

"where's forest?" she looks at me. "he said he would meet us at the train station ,if you didn't take so long to get ready, we could have gotten on the earlier train with him." she says, somewhat jokingly, but mostly serious. "oh, i'm sorry i wanted to look perfect for my little girl's wedding." i say sarcastically. even though she knew full well i was being sarcastic, she still responded with a serious answer.

"well you're forgiving." she smiles. i smiled back. the train conductor then came over the PA system. "dear, passengers, this is your conductor,Steam Puff, speaking. we are about 5 minutes from the crystal empire. thank you for picking Rail Road Express." his voice boomed filling the entire cart with his loud, calm voice. "well" i said, looking over at dashie. "you ready for your big day honey?" she looked at me, more nervous than before, yet, she still had a smile on her face.

"yup, i'm ready pops." i put my arm around her.

"good because there's no turning back now." i said,jokingly. the train then came to a full stop. as i stepped off,followed by dashie and her friends, forest saw me and rushed over. what happened next,warmed my heart but also scared the shit out of me. "hey dad." said forest looking at me. I felt the same way I did when dashie first said she loves me. i felt my heart skip a beat. i stood there for a few seconds, unsure of how to react.it felt like i stood there for hours but,in reality, it was only a few seconds. i noticed that every pony was staring at me.

I had to say something,and fast. "hello...forest." i said, his ears flopped down. maybe one day i will call him my son. but frankly, dashie is a big handful and i wont have any time alone if i accepted him as my...son. "hey pops?" dashie says, pulling at my pant leg. "yes?"

i say as i look down at her. "can we go now? I don't want to be late." i chuckle. "OK." so we left to the castle.

wow, the wedding was alot bigger than i expected. but it felt like it all happened so fast. when we got to the castle the guards let us in, recognizing me. they tried to stop dashie and the others until i mentioned that this was the wedding party. they looked at me,then at each other and nodded. they let us in. when we were inside, it was exactly like the show. i felt my brony excitement build up as i remembered that episode in season 3 where the ponies had to greet the equestria games inspector but ended up grabbing the wrong pony.

although, it was alot bigger than the show made it look. the place was completely empty. except for... my parents? it took me a bit to realize it, but i forgot to invite them. i guess word got to them and they came anyway. i was so happy that i ran to them. they were standing in the throne room. i gave them the biggest hug ever. "how did you find out about the wedding?" i asked them. "a certain... pink,cotton candy smelling, pony told us."

i laughed lightly. "pinkie pie." i thought to myself. we let go to each other to walk to the ball room, which is where the wedding is being held. It was already decorated. within the next few hours the guest's started showing up, such as:shining Armour,princess cadence,ditzy doo,the wonder bolts and many more. when twilight saw cadence, she ran over to her. "sunshine sunshine, ladybugs awake. clap your hooves and do a little shake." they laugh, and so do i. its the same thing they do every time they see each other.

and when dashie saw spit fire and the other wonder bolts she trotted over to them and caught up. seeing as it's been a long time since they actually hung out. they talked about the good times, their shows, and races. every once-in-a-while they would laugh.soon the priest showed up and asked us to take our seats.i followed rainbow dash into her dressing room. "dad?" "yeah?" "i'm so nervous." she said i can clearly hear the nervousness in her voice as well see it on her face.

"it's OK, i will be there the whole time." she smiles. "thanks dad, you always know just what to say." she hugs me. just then, i hear the wedding bells. that's our cure. i grab her by the hoof and walk her down the aisle. the rest of the ceremony was rather plain. after they said their i do's it was time for the dancing. dashie rushed over to me and grabbed my hand. i knew what she was doing. "i don't dance Hun." she looked sad. "please? for me?" i pondered this for a moment. "only if you get a full spa treatment when we get home."

i said. she dropped my hand and looked at me with a defeated look on her face. she sat there for a few minutes,thinking. she finally sighed. "OK fine, only one time though." "deal." i said smiling.

she pulled me up and escorted me to the dance floor. i realized that she is worse at dancing than i was. we were stumbling all over the place. but we had fun. we laughed at how silly we looked. forest then showed up. i knew what he was thinking and before he could say anything i nodded. he smiled and whisked dashie away to dance. he wasn't a bad dancer. but dashie was still stumbling around but through the night, she got the hang of it. before i knew it it was time to go back home. we all got on the train. and went home.

dashie seems happy, therefore, i'm happy. we stopped at quails and sofas on the way home to buy a new sofa. just somewhere where forest can sleep until i can save up to buy a bed for him. he seemed to like it.
