Spike's Friend

Spike was once again woken up by the nurse, but he was ready. After his shower, he rushed down to the cafeteria, hoping to catch Robert there. Robert was sitting in the middle of the cafeteria eating toast and oatmeal. He caught a glimpse of Spike, "Hey Spike over here."

The young dragon rushed over towards the table. Robert's mane was messed up (probably from tossing and turning last night)

he had on a different shirt today, it was plain white but said Sup Pop.

"Guess what...Dr. Flash called in sick. Ironic isn't? It isn't everyday you see a doctor sick, huh?" Spike chuckled.

Robert continued, "Since group is canceled today, how about you and go check out a movie?"

"Wait, we're going....sneak out?" the confused dragon said"

Robert chuckled.

"No dude, there's too many nurses around, I'm talking about watching a movie in the recreational room. What do you say?"

Spike needed no time to think. He loved movies. Last year, Twilight took him to see a movie called "Elephant Pony". He didn't even care if the film was in black and white, it was good nonetheless.

"Sure, I love movies."

"Great, follow me."

They left the cafeteria and made there way down the hall. Spike noticed the nurse keeping her distance again.

"Don't worry, they won't bother us unless we do something bad", Robert said.

After a minute of walking they made it to the rec. room. It was small like a classroom. There was shelves filled with board games like: Cookie land, Ponopoly, and Surgery. Another shelf contained movies, from the looks of it, there were probably over a hundred films.

"I'll let you pick" said Robert

"Re...really?"

"Sure, I know you'll pick a good one."

"OKAY!!"

Spike examined the movies on the shelves. Spike found: Filly Wars, Moomento, District 7, Iron Colt, and etc.. Finally, Spike found something that caught his eye: It's a Ponyfull Life.

Robert stared over Spike's shoulder to see what kind of film Spike chose. "Ah....now that's a classic."

Spike never heard of this movie before. "What's it about?"

Robert gasped. "You mean to tell me, you never seen It's a Ponyfull Life!?"

Spike shook his head.

"Pop it in, my good dragon."

Spike went over to the tv, popped the DVD in, and sat right next to Robert. The opening credits started. Spike knew he was in for a treat.

The movie was over after two hours. Robert went to turn off the tv. "So what'd you think Spike, is this a classic or what?"

Tears ran down his face, but they were not tears of sadness, they were tears of joy.

"You okay Spike?"

Spike wiped away his tears.

"Yeah I am, I've never seen anything this good before."

Robert walked towards Spike and patted him on the shoulders.

"Come on little bud, let's see what kind games we have here."

They played games until the sun started to set. Right in the middle of playing "Watched it?",the nurse told them to head back to their rooms. Time flew by for the two. On their way back, they started talking.

"You ready for tomorrow Spike?"

Spike looked confused.

"What's tomorrow?"

"Duh! Visitation day."

Spike completely forgot what Dr. Hooves told him about visitations.

"Tomorrow's Tuesday already?"

"Yep." Robert replied.

Spike looked down at his feet, Robert knew Spike was depressed.

"What's wrong bud?"

"I'm scared Twilight might be angry with me."

After a few moments of silence, Robert reassured him.

"Dude, she won't be angry. If she is, she can deal with me, okay?"

"Alright" said Spike

"Alright, this where I get off." His room was 219, Spikes was 236.

"Okay, see you tomorrow Robert."

"Later, bud."

Robert walk into his room, while Spike made way towards his.

He climbed into bed. Before he fell asleep, he was still thinking about tomorrow.
