A Vision in Pink

A Vision in Pink

Chapter 5:

Sarpsarilla

The pink mare walked quietly out of the bedroom. Dripping wet, her mane all soaked, yet every tangle stayed in place. Although of course, Pinkie was wearing a towel. Pinkie had a slight flutter stuck inside her heart though, like if somepony filled her up with laughing gas. Although Pinkie always felt like she'd been filled with laughing gas. So why should this time be any different?

Waiting in the hallway, was Rarity, Bubble, Applejack, and Fluttershy. Curious where the others were, Pinkie was about to ask where Rainbow Dash was to start, but she found out before she could ask when she felt a part of the ceiling fall on top of her head, with the most obvious voice apologizing, the voice that sounded like she thought she was cool, yet there was always a laugh in there.

"Oops! Sorry, Pinkie! I guess you need to move your flank a little farther."

"Ugh." Pinkie groaned, "It's fine, Rainbow Dash."

"Okay then! I guess that means I'll crash another roof on your head sometime!"

"Okay. Much obliged, Dashie." "Much obliged," The pony muttered.

"Oh! Hi Pinkie!" Bubble cheered. "Yay!!! Pinkie's here!"

"Where's Twilight and Spike?"

"They've went to go study something, darling!" Rarity answered.

"Oh yes. S-s-she and Sspike are ssstudying the a-alternate universe." Fluttershy whispered.

"Anyways, Pinkie darling, you have a very charming colt-friend here!"

"Thanks Rar-, wait what?" This was the first time in her life Pinkie sounded serious.

Bubble's face turned bright red as he nervously looked away.

"R-r-rarity's been wondering what was g-going on in the bathroom. S-she said she h-heard a m-major flirt storm." Fluttershy chuckled.

"Rarity! How could you think that?!!? We're just... friends! Best friends! Very Best friends! Best Friends Forever!"

"I bet you are." Rarity teased, "Ah, love is so beautiful, darling."

Oh, how bad Pinkie wanted to go rage quit.

"So, Bubble, I guess we have to meet with Princess Celestia to start planning that SUPER DUPER SMARTY POOPER PARTY!"

"Yay!" Bubble cheered.

Pinkie then ran over to the colt and dragged him quickly away from the rest of the mane six. She had to admit, they were the best of friends, but they were pretty annoying. Pinkie wondered if Bubble's friends were the same. Bubble. The thought always popped into her mind. Why was it now that Pinkie had turned inside her mind from a crazy party animal into a mushy shy sweetheart? She was starting to feel like Fluttershy! Only a romantic Fluttershy! But she couldn't help but have a sensation that she was being watched. Not by Bubble, who was right now trying to do a handstand while burping bubbly his ABCs, all while walking down the path, but by somepony else. Like if it were eyes in the sky.

Eh, but that's crazy! My Pinkie Sense would've let me know that! Pinkie then quickly switched to a goofy face as she started to bounce along the path instead of walking.

They walked for a bit down the path, far enough so that their friends won't look outside and see them, and then they got behind a tree, just to make sure they were'nt seen.

Pinkie sighed.

"Hey, Bubble?"

"Yeah?"

"Uhhh...."

"Yeahhhh?"

Pinkie felt so trapped inside that her eyes began to cross and she held her breath in until finally she started to scream, to shout, and let it all out.

"Ohmygoodness I cannot take it anymore, Bubble, eversince you came flying through that mirror and hit me on the head, I'm going to admit it to you ilikeyou ilikeyouu ireallyreallylikeyou, ILOVEYOU! YESIREALLYDOLOVEYOU! You love throwing parties just like me, you're a really good singer, you're a really good dancer, I love your slightly high male voice, and your Michael Jackson style mane whenever Rarity isn't styling it! Soi'mjustsayingIreally really hopethatyoulikeme too!"

Pinkie smiled so hard and large that you could've sworn you heard a teddy bear squeaking in the background.

Bubble stared at her with eyes wide, red face, and he was plainly shocked.

"Iknowyouprobablydon'tlikemebackbutI'mjustsayingthat'swhyIlikeworkingwithyo-AHHH!"

Pinkie squealed for a moment, despite the fact that Bubble had just looked in and kissed her. REALLY good. They made out for a while, right there, standing upon that tree, Bubble's hooves spread out like if he was holding Pinkie against the tree, and Pinkie just stood there, at first shocked, but then she joined in.

The two then fall onto the forest floor, laughing, kissing, and embracing eachother for another five minutes.

Which was pretty bad considering that Rainbow Snitch was flying out of the castle so she could go get one last bag of groceries up in Cloudsdale. After flying for a few meters, everything was good, until she passed by the forest, of course looking down to make sure everything was ok, obviously spotting Bubble and Pinkie tripping on top of eachother and making out on the floor.

"Aw! SICK!" Rainbow Dash complained as she then dashed back to the castle.

"They were WHAT?!!?" Twilight screamed.

"A-awww. L-love is so b-beautiful." Fluttershy whispered.

"Finally Fluttershy agrees with me on that, darling." Rarity cheered.

"Gah! I can't take any more of this mushy love stuff!!" Twilight shouted.

"Twilight, darling, don't you think you're being completely outrageous? Pinkie finally found her true love! Pinkie found love, and I honestly don't beleive you want to disencourage her on her choice!"

"But if love is already weird enough, imagine what a party animal love would do!!!"

"Strip?" Dashie teased.

"No, Dashie. Nopony wears clothing unless they're like Rarity or one of those fancy folk in Canterlot."

"Hey!" Rarity screamed.

"How could they strip? And besides, why are you so dirty-minded?"

"I hang around with gansta's, bro!"

"U-U-uh, not to be r-rude, Dash, b-but isn't that b-bad?" Fluttershy nervously asked.

"NOT FOR ME IT ISN'T!!!"

"Ok, ok. So, Bubble and Pinkie fell in love, correct?"

"Yeah, whatever."

"So, you saw them do this?"

"Yes! They fell over onto the floor! THE FLOOR! KISSING AND MAKING OUT!"

"Okay. So, I guess we would have to keep up with this. In the meantime, everypony pretend like nothing happened, got it?"

"Ok!"

"All right, darling."

"Shore'."

"U-uh. Okayyy."

"Good."

Pinkie and Bubble finally got to the Princess' meeting spot. It was in a garden. A lovely garden, with a gazebo and everything. Although it was a very sophisticated place, they knew they had to turn it into one heck of a party. Finally the Princess came.

"Good afternoon."

"Good afternoon, Celestia!" Pinkie sung out.

"Good morning to YOUU!!!" Bubble joined in.

Celestia giggled.

"I see you two have made the best of friends with eachother, am I correct?"

Pinkie and Bubble blushed as the turned to eachother. Best of friends? Oh no. They were much more than that. But they of course couldn't spoil it right then.

"Yep!"

"Yeperdoodles!"

"That's good. So, Luna said she wanted the party to be huge. She wanted it to be magnificent. So I'm counting on you two to make this party a success. Allright?"

"Allright."

"Allright."

"So, here's a list of things Luna wanted to have in the party."

Celestia handed the note to the two bubblegum ponies.

"We're counting on you two, ok?"

"Ok."

"Ok."

"Allright. I will see you two at 5. Meet me in the castle for tea by then. Cheerio!"

The large Alicorn walked away back to the castle. She was going with Twilight and the others.

"Ok! Let's read this list!" Pinkie opened up the note.

"Ok." Bubble got closer to Pinkie so he could see it as well.

Pinkie started to read;

"A 10x10 light up disco dancefloor, a disco ball, a stereo, large sparkly table coverings with a picture of the night time sky, 7 tables, 10 chairs, a patio chair, 10 lbs of ice cream, a triple chocolate fudge cake, soda pop, a bottle of Bradberry 1935, Raspberry tarts, fruit punch, French macaroons freshly baked, and... star shaped streamers, balloons, and decor. etc."

"Okay! Let's get the pastries first! Too bad there isn't a Sugarcube Corner here in Canterlot." Bubble stated.

"True. Oh hey! I know a good bakery here, though! Come on!" Pinkie started to rush towards town, Bubble following closely behind.

The town was unebleivably busy today. Fancy ponies were scattered everywhere shopping or just hanging out with one another. So of course it looked weird when everypony saw Pinkie and Bubble, two HIGHLY UNSOPHISTICATED party ponies that weren't wearing any tuxes or dresses.

"Jeez, it looks like everypony's been shopping at Dochi & Gabbana!" Pinkie joked.

"How much Elusive would be thrilled to see this." Bubble agreed.

"How is Elusive, anyways? What do your friends look and act like?"

"Well, obviously they look the same like your friends, just you're lucky, because your friends actually SEEM friends. My friends just seem like jerks."

"Maybe they need you to go home and show them what a Bubbly-Pinky Party Bash is like!"

Bubble chuckled.

"I wish."

The two ponies had arrived at a fancy bakery; 'Gâteau Café de Bria'. Normally Bubble would bounce through the door right away, but he felt very awkward and blushy, and decided to stay calm and open the door for Pinkie first. They walked in.

"I hope these pony folk don't speak french, because when Elusive gave me that french dictionary, I couldn't understand one thing, so I hid it in a closet."

The two laughed quietly.

"Hello Madamoiselle & Messieur! I am Chloe! You can call me KayKay, though! How may I help you fine couple?"

"Uh, we actually have a list of pastries we needed to get for Luna's party tomorow!" Pinkie stated.

Chloe gasped.

"oh mon dieu! Do you mean Luna as in 'Princess Luna'?!"

"Yes, we do!" Bubble spoke up.

"Oh deary, you two are very lucky to be friends with the Princess! I am honored. What is it you need? Anything you want! I'll even give you a discount if you want!"

"We need a triple chocolate fudge cake, a dozen macaroons, and some raspberry tarts."

"Ok, a cake, a dozen macaroons... and how many raspberry tarts would you two like?"

Bubble smiled at Pinkie slyly, and she knew just what he meant. She smiled back.

"Two dozen! We need two dozen! I'll pay with the cash Celestia gave me, and I'll pay for that second dozen of tarts with my pony card!"

Pinkie reached for her bright pink bag.

"No! I'll pay! At least I brought my wallet when I came here!" Bubble insisted.

"Thanks."

"Here! How much will it be?"

"Well, normally it would be $70. But since you two are the meilleurs compagnons of the princess, I guess I can make a réduction So instead you could pay $35. Is that all right?"

Bubble looked at Pinkie.

"Yeah! It's fine!"

"Okay then! The cake will have to be made first! If you can pick it up tomorrow, that'll be great! But the tarts and macaroons we have ready for you!"

"Okee-dokee!"

Pinkie grabbed the bag of macaroons.

Bubble grabbed the two bags of tarts, as the two then left the bakery.

The two pink ponies headed back for the garden. They had everything. They got the pastries, they had already stopped by a store for decorations and the disco stuff, they stopped by Pony-oShack to grab the stereo, and they found a special french resteraunt that had the bottle of Bradberry 1935.

When they reached the garden, they stopped at the gazebo, and dropped all the bags of party supplies they got. They were exhausted from running with all that heavyness on their backs, and in their bags. The two sat down, panting.

"I think that's it!" Pinkie wheezed.

"Yeah. I'm pretty sure." Bubble panted back.

Pinkie looked shyly at her colt-friend.

                 "Want to share the extra dozen of tarts right now?"

                 "Sure! After all that's why we got a second dozen!"

                 The two giggled as they remembered their trip to the bakery.

"Hey, listen, Bubble. I felt sorta awkward about earlier,"

The bubblegum colt listened.

"And, so.. I was just wondering... do you really like me?"

Pinkie smiled at him.

Bubble smiled back.

"Well, we both like to party, and we're both really fun, but when I fell out of that mirror, you were like the pony I've never met. And when I saw you, I thought you were weird, I thought WE were weird, and then I thought, that was why we are together."

Pinkie stared in shock at her friend.

He smiled larger.

The two then held hands, as they then got closer and closer, and then they kissed. Once again for a long time.

"Celestia said they would be out here!" Twilight said as she trotted with her friends over to the garden.

The five mares stopped in shock, and stared.

There was Bubble and Pinkie, tounge kissing, very, very slowly in front of them.

"Woo-whee! Look' like somepony got stuc' givin' that colt feller' a littl' sugar!" Applejack teased.

The two opened their eyes, as they then looked at the five ponies in front of them, and then quickly retracted their lips away from eachother.

"Heh."

"Heh-heh."

"I knew it! You two darlings are a couple! I really am proud of you, Pinkie! I never thought you'd release such romantic behavior for your friend here!" Rarity cheered.

"I-it really wa-as sweet of you twoo." Fluttershy whisper-sang.

"I guess I am a little used to it, now! And let me just say you two are so cute together!" Twilight agreed.

"Whatever! I found that totally disgusting!" Rainbow screamed.

"And just in time for the party! Two Pinkies, or Bubbles, will make this party a really big bash!"

The two ponies looked at eachother, and blushed, as they then launched another kiss, aware of Pinkie's friends watching, and in no shame at all.

Night had fallen again over Canterlot, and this night even more beautiful than yesterday night. It was quiet in the castle, since everypony had already got inside their bedrooms. Pinkie was turning off the last lamp as she got in bed. Bubble turned to his mare self.

"Hello, my sugarcakes!" Bubble said to Pinkie.

"Hello, my cutie pie!" Pinkie said back.

"Sweet dreams!"

"As sweet as a lump of sugar for you, mister!"

The two chuckled as they snuggled and then got to sleep.

The night sky fell harsher upon the castle, as it grew very very dim. But then, a flash of bright light spread very quickly across the castle, and then grew dim again, followed by a loud thunder sound, all coming from the room the mirror sat, the mirror in where Bubble popped out.
