Getting Ready

"One last touch!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed, tossing a streamer over a board on the celling at Sugar Cube Corner.

"Perfect!" Cheese Sandwich agreed.

Mrs. Cake and Mr. Cake walked into the front room, followed by Pound Cake and Pumpkin Cake.

"It looks lovely dear," Mrs. Cake told Pinkie Pie.

"So Cool!" Pound Cake added.

"Thank you so much Pinkie Pie, and you too Cheese Sandwich," Pumpkin Cake commented.

"Your Welcome! It's always nice to make a good friend smile!" Pinkie replied.

"I'm so glad you like the decorations," Cheese Sandwich said.

Cheese Sandwich and Pinkie Pie were throwing a foal shower for Mrs. Cake and they combined it with a Cute-ceañera for Pound Cake and Pumpkin Cake. Cheese had planned games for the adults to play at the foal shower and Pinkie had made snacks and punch for the fillies and colts attending the Cute-ceañera. Pound Cake had gotten his cutie mark two weeks before the party while playing with a colt from school. Pound Cake's cutie mark was a scale with a slice of cake on  each side. Pumpkin Cake got her cutie mark a week later when she was helping her mom in the kitchen. She was helping clean up after making a batch of cupcakes, when a cloud of powdered sugar appeared on her flank. In the powdered sugar was a spoon covered in rainbow cake batter.

"What is the little foal's due date again?" Pinkie Pie asked, breaking the silence.

"It's June 31st, so three weeks from now," Mrs. Cake responded.

"I never heard if the foal was going to be a filly or a colt," Cheese Sandwich said.

"Cupcake is too stubborn to look at the ultrasound, and she wants to be surprised. We won't know until the birth," Mr. Cake said, a frown entering his face.

"Lighten up dad," Pound Cake scoffed, "It's not a big deal."

"I'll just have to stay in Ponyville until the foal is born," Cheese Sandwich annouced.

"Yippee! My favorite party planner gets to stay longer!" Pinkie Pie shouted.

Pinkie Pie threw a quick hug around Cheese and then looked back at the cake family. They were all smiling, obviously pleased with the results of their hard work. She instantly remembered the day she got her cutie mark. The smiles on her families faces were filled with pure joy. That feeling was something Pinkie would never forget.

"I'll be in my room until the party starts. Cheese, do you want to come with me?" Pinkie asked, turning towards the stairs.

"Sure," Cheese agreed, walking next to Pinkie.

Pinkie hopped up the stairs and into her room, holding the door open for Cheese. They both sat down on Pinkie's bed next to each other.

"I can't wait for the new foal to be born. Though Pound Cake and Pumpkin cake are great, they've grown up a lot and they have friends from school, and sometimes they don't want to play with me anymore," Pinkie Pie explained.

"I get it, it's no fun being left alone all the time," Cheese agreed.

He was left alone all the time as a colt because he was so shy. Pinkie was the first filly who inspired him to make friends and make ponies smile. He heard Pinkie yawn beside him and he noticed her hair had multiple strands out of place.

"I'm gonna take a nap. Wake me up at quarter 'til party!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed, flopping down in her bed next to Cheese.

Pinkie Pie quickly fell asleep with Cheese sitting by her side. Cheese Sandwich hopped off the bed and walked over to a pale pink rocking chair in the corner of Pinkie's room. He sat down, thinking about the Cake's. It must be nice to settle down with a family instead of traveling all of Equestria just to throw a party. Cheese was starting to consider staying somewhere nice, and meeting a mare to start a family with. Maybe Ponyville would be a nice place to stay. Cheese already had one bubbly pink mare in mind. He rocked back and forth on the wooden chair, smiling at Pinkie Pie.

It was quarter to three in no time, so Cheese walked up to the bed and nudged Pinkie with his hoof. Pinkie Pie sat up and stretched. She brushed out her normally crazy mane and watched it fall down the sides of her neck in tight, neat curls. She brushed out her tail the same way. Cheese walked into the doorway of Pinkie Pie's bathroom and saw that she had full makeup on.

"Woah! You look so..." Cheese Sandwich gasped, struggling to regain his breath.

Cheese was so shocked by Pinkie's appearance. She looked absolutely gorgeous. Cheese knew the party required a nice, classy outfit and everyone would be dressed up, but he was just wearing a collar he had bought with Prince Blueblood before the gala one year. Cheese straightened his collar and stared at Pinkie Pie. She had on a tight sky blue corset that had cream colored lace attaching it to a thin yellow strip of silk that had rows of small white polka dots. The dress highlighted her curves and made her look very elegant. Pinkie had on bright white eyeshadow and thick eyelashes that had been adorned with mascara. Her lips were a deep, sparkly red and they complemented her shiny white teeth perfectly.

"How do I look?" Pinkie Pie asked sweetly.

"P-p-p-perfect!" Cheese stammered, unable to find a word to describe the absolute beauty of the mare standing in front of him.

"I'm glad you think so," Pinkie Pie said with a flip of her tail, which had been neatly curled in several pieces.

She walked past Cheese to head downstairs, it was almost time for the party. Cheese couldn't help but notice how her hips swayed when she walked and how her step was not bouncy as it was before, but sweet and calm.

"Oh my Celestia," Cheese whispered, staring down the empty hallway, trying to comprehend that the beautiful, lovely mare that had just walked past him was the crazy filly he had met years ago at his first party.

Gifts and Grins

"Pinkie Pie, the first guest should be here soon," Mrs. Cake said, poking her head out the kitchen door. "You look very nice," she complemented.

"Thank you, same to you," Pinkie Pie said with a soft smile.

Mrs. Cake was wearing a layered dress with silk pink inside layers of different shades, and crinkly blue outside layers, also in various shades. Her dress made it quite obvious that she was pregnant but it was fitting because this was a foal shower. She had on a pearl necklace and matching earrings. Her eyes were lined with pink eyeshadow and blue eyeliner.

Pinkie Pie checked the decorations and the refreshments, seeing everything was in order. She sat down on the couch, waiting for the party guests to arrive. Cheese meandered down the stairs and stood by the door, waiting for the guests. There was a knock at the door and Cheese opened it up with his biggest smile.

"Hey, are you ready to party?" Cheese asked the group at the door.

The Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo had come together along with Rarity and Sweetie Belle; and Applejack and Apple Bloom. Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy weren't far behind.

"When Pinkie and Cheese throw a party, I am there!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed, flying through the door.

"Oh the Dećore looks lovely," Rarity complimented.

"Thank you for coming," Pinkie Pie  said to each guest as they walked in.

"Presents for the foal shower can go in the dining room," Cheese added.

Just after everyone had gotten situated, there was another knock at the door. Pinkie Pie walked over to the door, greeting Rumble, Silver Spoon, and Diamond Tiara. She showed them to the living room, where the other fillies and colts were. Pinkie Pie and Cheese Sandwich then joined the foal shower, leaving the school ponies to play.

"What should we do first?" Mrs. Cake asked Pinkie Pie, because she had planned most of the foal shower.

"You could open your presents," Pinkie Pie suggested, knowing that opening presents would be Mrs. Cake's favorite part.

"That's a great idea Pinkie Pie," Mrs. Cake agreed.

The guests walked over to the present table. Rainbow Dash picked up a neatly bagged gift and handed it to Mrs. Cake.

"Open mine first!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

Rainbow Dash pulled at the neckline of her dress. she knew she had to wear something classy, but she just wore her Wonderbolt uniform because she was running late from practice and she had to pick Scootaloo up on her way here. Mrs. Cake nodded and pulled the tissue paper out of the top of the bag. She looked inside and pulled out a tall bottle. The label read: Cloudsdale Rainbow Whiskey. She hugged Rainbow Dash and thanked her.

"How did you get your hooves on this? I haven't had any in years since they stopped selling it,"  Mrs. Cake stated.

"Remember, I'm a Wonderbolt now, and that comes with tons of privlages. They get private access to a whole cellar full of fancy wine's, whiskey's, tequila's, you name it! I know pregnancy can be pretty stressful," Rainbow Dash commented, gesturing to her stomach which was slightly swollen.

"Congratulations Rainbow Dash," Mrs. Cake said sweetly.

"I'm only three months in so it's not too bad right now," Rainbow Dash laughed.

"Here, you can open mine next," Applejack told Mrs. Cake, handing her a package, after she had put down the bottle of Whiskey.

Mrs. Cake unwrapped the carefully wrapped box. She opened up the box and found a wicker basket filled with five baby bottles. Mrs. Cake took the basket out of the box and set it down in the counter. She picked up one of the bottles and looked it over.

"Thank you Applejack, that's very sweet," Mrs. Cake beamed.

"Granny Smith made them and Apple Bloom painted them. I made the basket, so it was really a team effort from all of Sweet Apple Acres," Applejack replied kindly.

Mrs. Cake nodded to Applejack, seeing she had worn the same dress she wore to the gala several years ago, and turned her head as Rarity used her magic to levitate a note over to Mrs. Cake. She read the note happily and gave Rarity a kind smile.

"I know it's not much, but I'm quite busy and I'm sure you will be too," Rarity added.

"I love it, I really do. I'm am sure your really busy now, working for Prim Hemline," Mrs. Cake rejoiced.

The note promised that whenever Mrs. Cake wanted, Rarity would reschedule all her work for the day and take her to the spa and treat her to whatever she'd like. Rarity was currently working for Prim. After winning fashion week several years in a row, Prim hired Rarity as her top designer. Rarity was dressed up in a very over the top way. She was wearing a hunter green silk ball gown with diamonds running up the shoulder. Twilight held up her and Spike's gifts with her magic. Mrs. Cake picked Twilight's gift first. She unwrapped the huge package to find a sweetly painted crib.

"It's enchanted to rock itself," Twilight said, beaming with pride.

"Thank you, Twilight," Mrs. Cake commented, "I'm sure it will come in handy."

Mrs. Cake picked up Spike's gift next. She found a rotating platform. It was split into four sections; one containing diapers, the next safety pins, then wipes and tissues, then baby powder in the last section. Spike looked down at his feet, embarrassed by his lack of creativity.

"Thank you Spike, I love it," Mrs. Cake said.

"That will be really useful," Mr. Cake added.

Fluttershy handed her present to Mrs. Cake next. Mrs. Cake opened up the gift and found a homemade bunny stuffed animal as well as assorted homemade tea bags.

"Thank you so much! This is so sweet!" Mrs. Cake complimented.

"Oh, it was nothing," Fluttershy replied, blushing with a sheepish grin.

"Thank you! All of you! I'm so happy you took time put of your day just to see all of us!" Mrs. Cake exclaimed happily.

"Did you forget about my gift?" Pinkie Pie asked.

"Oh, you didn't have to get me anything, your practically part of the family," Mrs. Cake said sweetly.

"I'm happy to hear you say that because that means this moment will be that much sweeter," Pinkie Pie said, handing Mrs. Cake a picture frame.

It was a small wooden picture frame with a portrait of the Cakes and Pinkie Pie inside. On the edge of the frame the word "Family" was engraved, surrounded by hearts. Mrs. Cake showed the other girls.

"Thank you Pinkie Pie," Mrs. Cake said, overcome by happiness.

"Your welcome," Pinkie Pie said with a sweet smile. "I have some games in mind."
