Love Songs and Butterflies
Chapter 14 (Hearts and Hooves Day part 2)
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe Hearts and Hooves Day Bash was underway, and love seemed to rule the night. Ponies were either playing games at the stands, or shaking their tails off on the dance floor. And "shaking your tail off" was exactly what Vinyl Scratch was doing. There she was; up on the main stage, being the center of the music. Just as she predicted the night would turn out.
Fluttershy now had the perfect outfit, since Rarity's previous one was a bit too much. She still wore the black dress, however, the train had been cut to the end of her hind legs, as well as the glitter that was added to it. Fluttershy had agreed to still wore eye shadow, and had suggested to add purple eyeliner.
Crashie didn't want to go with a fancy look, he wanted to make her night special by being presented as the strapping stallion he really was....
or so he thinks.
After Fluttershy and Crashie met up at Sugarcube Corner, they walk out with a smile, giggling. "You're so funny." She said, walking beside her stallion. She couldn't help but giggle again when he replied.
"Hey, I save the best jokes for last. Oh! Ever hear the one about the Donkey and the Mule?"
She nods, then points out something that was about 10 yards away:
"A photo booth!" They shouted at the same time, their tails swaying. The two look at each other. "Did you just....?" AGAIN they speak at the same exact rate, this time they couldn't help but laugh. "Race ya!" Crashie says, dashing to the booth. Fluttershy followed, she won.
The curtains were then closed behind them after entering.

After this, they continue on.
"Hey Fluttershy!" Applebloom calls from a short distance from the crusader's stand. "Come on! You'll be our first players!" The two Pegasi run to the stand, awaiting for Sweetie Belles instructions.
"Alright." She begins, standing on top of the wooden stand and placing two tin foil hats on their heads. "So, these hats are connected by a thick layer of string..." They look up and see it while she continues. "Which allows you to see into each other's heart. Metaphorically speaking of course."
Sweetie jumps down behind the stand and ducks down, thus pulling out two blank flash cards, popping her head up. She gives them each a card. "Write a nickname and pass it over. After that, read it to each other." They do so.
Fluttershy reads Crashie's first. "Butterfly." She giggles and smiles shyly. "Thank you.....read mine now. I think you'll like it." She hides her blush.
"Crashie kinz." He reads aloud. He smiles and pecks her cheek. "I don't just like it, I love it."
"Awwwwwwww" Sweetie Belle and Applebloom are touched by the moment. As for Scootaloo, she gagged while siting in the back, away from any outsider's view. "Give me a break."
"Really Scoots?" Sweetie Belle began, seeing her take another
Chocolate out of a heart box. "You do realize those are for the couples, right?"
"Yeah yeah, whatever. I'm sure there will still be plenty." NUM! Another chocolate entered her mouth. She could care less about this event. To her, it was just a waste of precious "flight training with Rainbow Dash" time. Sweetie Belle just rolled her eyes and grabbed a heart for Fluttershy and Crashie. "Here you are." She puts on her best smile.
Fluttershy takes it and looks at Crashie. "Do you think we can see if Rainbow Dash is around? I'm sure she'll be really happy to meet you." Just then, a blue coated Pegasus was flying towards Crashie, tackling him on accident.
"Opps..." Rainbow Dash chuckled, not even looking at him. "Sorry about that." She finally looked up at the male, her eyes widen with a gasp. "Oh my gosh! Are you who I think you are!? Crashie Tunez!?"
Crashie's eyes widen as well, but not by the fact Dash was knowing who she landed on. No sir. He was just shocked to have another pony on top of him. "Uhh...yes..." He uttered. Before the colt could say more, Rainbow Dash continues:
"It IS you!!" She hopped off. "I am, like, a HUGE fan! Names Rainbow Dash. You have no idea what an honor it is to meet you! Oh my gosh! I can't believe your here! You are right here!! You are my idol!...." She pauses for only a second. "After the Wonderbolts of course."
*squee*
All Crashie could do was stay silent with widened eyes, for he has never really met a fan so obsessive before. He didn't know what to expect from Rainbow's fan girling. Crashie Tunez got up and flipped his mane back. "Well, it was nice meeting you, Dash. But me and Fluttershy really must be going."
Fluttershy buts in, noticing Crash looks a bit uneasy. "He's right, Rainbow Dash. Oh! I think I see Spitfire over there." She points out nothing but air, knowing Rainbow Dash would fall for it. She did. The two ran away as fast as their legs would take them. If that were to be another race, Fluttershy would win. Crash and Fluttershy, gasping for breath, ended up in front of the stage. The crowd wasn't as big.
"Hey! Crash!" Vinyl raised her shades. "Sup man!? Glad you could make it!" She tried to yell over the music.
"Yeah! Same here!" Crashie then turns to Fluttershy and whispers something in her ear. She goes away from the stage to sit at a nearby bench.
Crashie jumps up to meet with his producer. He whispers something in her ear. Vinyl looks at him, smirking. "Feelin' for your lover huh!?" He nods with a smile as the unicorn stops the song currently playing.
She speaks into the mic with high spirits. "Aalllllight! This next one is sure to bring some spark in the air tonight. It is a special request from none other than Crashie Tunez!" The crowd then increased, cheering and stumping there hooves --especially Rainbow Dash, performing a perfect backflip in the middle of the pit afterwards--.
Crashie smiles and hops off the left side of the stage, escaping the crowd. The song plays in the background as he searches through the crowd for the bench. He spots Fluttershy and waves, motioning her to him. They are now face to face as the crowd moves around them.
"So uhh...." Crash chuckles. "Would you like to dance?"
"Umm....I can't dance." She looks away and hangs her head down. Crashie takes her hoof, turning her back around. He says softly, putting his muzzle to hers, "it's ok, I'll lead you."
Fluttershy blushes deeply and puts her hooves around his neck, gazing into his eyes as Crashie sways her side to side. They were in perfect movement with the music.
Crashie tries his best not to step on her hooves, this was also his first time. Usually, when he was little, his mother would be the dance partner. His mother was taller than him at the time, no doubt. So about 7 years later to this very moment, he looks back and thinks, "wow, this is a little harder than I'd expected." Still, he was pulling it off pretty well.
He twirls her around one time, and wraps his wings around her back. He licks her neck from behind. Fluttershy giggles and says softly, "you're really good at this." She cuddles up to his neck and rests the side of her head upon it, the colt gasps softly. They continue to sway slowly.
The two were unstoppable, it seemed as if nothing could drive them apart. The world revolved around their special moment, Mother Nature must have planned it that way.
