“Finally finished!” Spike announced as he rolled up the parchment. He set down the quill, it was just a rough draft of the real thing. “Now I just need Twilight to proof read it for me!”

Spike was the most handsomest dragon in Ponyville, maybe even in all of Equestria! His elegant purple scales were enough to make anypony swoon and....

   It was a long week for Spike, he was doing some hardcore writing in the past few weeks. In fact, he just finished writing the last chapter. Yes, Spike was writing a book. Well not really a book per say, just a short story about him and his friends. And a bit of a romance might I add. He tried his best to depict his friends as best as possible.

    Spike rushed into the library, parchment in hand, ready for Twilight to proof read it. And make some slight changes, like correcting spelling, and what is wrong with the characters personalities, Twilight was good with that sort of thing. “It’s done! It’s finally done!” he said pushing the parchment in Twilight’s face. She gave him a confused look, and  asked, “What’s done?” She levitated the scroll out of his hands, and opened it. She read the first few lines of the the page and was reminded of what this was exactly.

“Oh, I was supposed to proof read your story, wasn’t I?”, “Yes! How could you forget?”, he asked slightly annoyed that she had forgotten something so important. “Well… it has been a while since you asked me to read it. About a month actually.” she stated while looking back at the small pile of scrolls. Spike had been working on his story for a month now, and he didn’t leave the desk once since he started, Twilight even had to go so far as to drag him off of the chair to get him to eat and sleep. Some ponies even came to the library asking if he was ok, she simply told them that he was working on a project and didn’t want to be interrupted until he was done.

“Well, ok.” she said. Twilight then trotted over to the small pile of scrolls. Each one had a different chapter labeled onto it. She had to dig through them for a minute to find the right one. After a few seconds of digging, she finally found the scroll that read, “Chapter 1”.

She sat on her pillow and started to read aloud. “Chapter…”

Meanwhile, at SugarCube Corner.

Pinkie Pie was baking cupcakes for the upcoming picnic her and the rest of the girls held every month. I wonder where Spikey was at last months picnic. She was starting to get kind of worried about him. And thinking aloud, she said, "I mean, he usually follows Twilight around everywhere, right?" Out of nowhere her ear, her tail, her arm, and her left eye started to twitch, the twitch turned into a violent shake. When she figured out what the sense meant, a rather loud “GASSSSSSSSPPPPPP” escaped her mouth. She dropped the cupcake tray but she didn't really care, she would clean it up later. And make a new batch. Then Pinkie Pie zoomed out the door at a speed that would make Rainbow Dash jealous beyond all belief.

Back at the Library,

“...1” “BANG” Twilight and Spike almost fell over in surprise from the sudden noise. Twilight got up and found her mane was messed up from falling over onto the floor. Standing up, she used her hoof to straighten out her mane considering she didn't have a brush on hand at the time. She walked out of her room, and look all over for the source of the noise. She looked at the door, and in the window, she saw Pinkie Pie’s face flattened against it, her eyes wide and begging, Twilight let out a relatively annoyed sigh and opened the door.

“Can I help you?” she said in an annoyed tone. She realised that that may have come across as a little blunt. But Pinkie just peeled her face off of the window. Her eyes were swirling, and her face was still flat. She shook her head,”My Pinkie sense told me somepony was about to read a story!!” She practically screamed it. Twilight shook her head in annoyance close to getting a headache, like she always does when she was around the spazzy pink mare. “Sigh...Yes Pinkie, I was about to read the story Spike wrote.” “Oooooooh! Can I read it too?” She asked excitedly. “Well...I don’t know, Spike might not want anypony else to hear it until it's complete.” (Wait, can Pinkie actually read? Pfft, nevermind, of course she can). And in a second Pinkie was down on the ground hugging Twilights leg with a pleading look on her face.

Looking up at Twilight, with puppy dog eyes, she started a rather long, (and also very loud)

”Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee…..” “Pinkie, I don’t know if Spike would want another……” Twilight was drowned out by the continuous sound of Pinkie Pie saying please wich was getting louder and louder. And longer. “eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee” “Pinkie, I don’t know if….” but her constant attempts at getting the pink party pony to stop and go away were futile. “eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee” “OK FINE!!!!!” Twilight screamed as loud as she could to get Pinkie to hear her over the sound of her own pleading, and also drew the attention of other ponies that were currently walking by the library. “eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!” She got up and pulled out her party cannon, she set it off, and as expected, confetti  went everywhere. Twilight maintained the same expression. Annoyed, but soon, she smiled and let out a small laugh. Pinkie then bolted past Twilight. She seated herself on a cupcake pillow in Twilights room, which she pulled out of the eternal void. And then sat there ready to listen and smiling with glee. Twilight giggled to herself, it wasn't everyday that Pinkie came over. She was wondering why she was happy all of a sudden. Today wasn't the best day for her. She tried to get Spike to leave the desk for just one minute but he wouldn't budge. So all in all, seeing Pinkie was the highlight of the day. She wondered what made her so happy to see that pony anyway. "Oh, well." she would think about this later. But right now, she needed to read Spikes story.

“Sigh...Ok if there are no further interruptions, then, lets begin.” She picked up the parchment and read the first line, “Chapter 1: the Librarian, and the Baker”. She found herself smiling as she read the story aloud to Pinkie.

Oh... And Spike too.
