My Dear Silver

Chapter 4: Hearts an- HOLY CRAP PINKIE NO!

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

So here I am. Town square, Ponyville. The decorations are everywhere. Couples trotting around, holding hooves and occasionally hugging one another. The sun had just recently set (Luna was in charge tonight because Celestia was with me) so the full mood really made this the perfect romantic night. Honestly, I don't know what could go wrong tonight! Everything seems perfectly normal around here.

As Celestia heads over to mingle a little, I lay down some rules for Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon:
1. No being rude
2. Don't raise your voice in anger
3. No hitting
4. If you have a problem, talk to me.

They nodded in acceptance with these rules and walked off to be with Sun-butt. I swear, they treat her like a god. I look over to the town hall and see it was turned into a reception area. I decided to go check it out while the 3 I came here with are off chatting. As I walk in I notice ponies are dancing and talking on the sidelines. I start traversing the crowd to get to the sidelines of the dance area. I ended up bumping into a booth selling different treats. As I looked up to see who was selling these delicacies, I noticed a orange mare with a blonde mane and cowgirl hat on. Well, I'll be darned!

"Applejack?" I asked, surprised but happy.

"Oh, hey Anon" She looked as if the feeling was mutual, "Wanna buy something?"

Business was all she did at these kinds of events. Even at the Grand Galloping Gala she was trying to sell her treats! But I am kinda hungry...

"I'll take and apple pie..." I thought about Celestia and the fillies, "A cinnamon apple cake and a dozen apple fritters please!"

Her jaw dropped at the huge order I had placed. A few seconds later, it was replaced with a huge smile.

"Sounds like you got Celestia and 2 hungry fillies with you!" She laughs.

"Wha- how did you know?" I asked, sincerely.

She points a hoof to somewhere behind me. As I turn, there was; as if on queue; 2 fillies and a cake hungry alicorn.

"Make that 2 apple cinnamon cakes, please!" She said, giggling.

"Alright, that will be 32 bits."

As I go to pull out my bit sack, Celestia stops me and places hers instead.

"But, I was going to p-" I was stopped when a hoof went over my mouth

"No need Anon" Celestia said with a warming smile, "Tonight is on me!"

We exchanged a hug and the fillies joined in as well. You know, I'm really enjoying myself tonight. I don't anything wil-

"ANON!"

I look over to where my name was called. A enraged Pinkie Pie was looking around for me. Was she expecting me to ask her to Hearts and Hooves day? Well I only have one thing to say.... I'm fucked.

"ANON! WHERE ARE YOU?!" Pinkie shouted.

All the ponies moved out of the way, revealing me, curled up in a ball on the floor. As I heard her stomping towards me, I started shivering. I felt myself being lifted. As I looked down, I saw Pinkie carrying me outside. She put me down on the bridge and starting talking fast.

"ohmygodAnonwhydidn'tyoutellmethatyouandCelestiawerespecialsomeponiesImean..."

"Pinkie." Nothing.

"...Ican'tbelieveyoudidn'ttellmesoonerIwouldhavethrownapartyforyoutwo..."

"Pinkie!" Louder but still nothing.

"...Andthenyoucouldhavehadyourfirstdateatsugarcubecor-"

"PINKIE PIE!" That worked.

"What?" She asked, confused.

"It's only for tonight" I explain, "I'm here because Diamond and Silver wanted to go."

"Ohhhhh." She understands, good.

"Well, I'm gonna stay out here for a bit, it's nice out. You go have fun Pinkie." I gesture her to go back inside.

"Okie dokie loki!" She cheerfully says and bounces off.

She sure is something, I'll give you that.


I was outside for nearly an hour without even noticing. As I stared into the river, I thought of Silver Spoon. What was it about her that I was so attracted to? She was amazing sure, but so was Diamond. So what could it be?

"H-hey Anon..." I hear a voice to my side.

Speak of the frigging devil look who it is. Silver Spoon is shyly standing there, making circles with her left forehoof. It looks like she has something to say.

"Hey Silver. Whats wrong?" I ask, kneeling down to her.

She seems to be crying. Who did this to her?! WHY DID THEY DO THIS TO HER?! WHERE IS SH- woah... Batman on the mind...

"Oh my gosh, what happend?!" I try to ask but get no response.

As she looks up, she seems to be smiling. Not just that, but crying at the same time. Whats going on he- WOAH. Is she... hugging me?

"T-thank you so much for taking us out tonight Anon" She says, her tiny hooves wrapped around me.

"It was nothing, Silver." I reply

"IT WASN'T NOTHING!" She yelled

I jumped

"Me and Diamond are treated like dirt for how we act... we don't mean to be like that... we are only that way because our parents are almost never around" She starts hugging me tighter, "You treat us so nicely... and that spoon you gave me... I loved it so much... It was the only gift I have ever received from someone who wasn't my mom!"

Oh my god... I feel so bad for them... I knew Diamond didn't have many friends... but now knowing her father is almost never around and that Silver is experiencing the same thing... It makes me start crying...

"Calm down Silver, it's ok!" I try to stop her tears.

After a couple of minutes, Diamond walks out in the same condition. She runs up to me and joins the hug. Man... All over town I hear stories about Diamond being a monster... but she isn't a monster at all... neither is Silver... they are just misunderstood..

After another minute, we all let go. It seemed like the fillies had stopped crying, which was a good sign. They both wore smiles on their faces. I gave them both a scratch behind the ear and they were ok again.

"You two run along back inside now" I say, merrily, "And Silver."

"Yea?"

"We're friends."

This made her even happier. She nodded and joined her friend back in the town hall. I just stood there, feeling so happy for what I just did. I felt a tear running down my cheek. Before I started to break down, Celestia had her wings wrapped around me.

"You're a good pon- person, Anon." She said, motherly.

"Thank you... Sun-butt" I playfully ruffle her mane.

"I like that nickname" She giggles, "I hate formal names."

We both share in a laugh and eventually look out into the river together.

"You think they are going to enjoy the rest of their night?" I ask, worried.

"Why wouldn't they" She looks right at me, "They have been shown kindness which other ponies dare not give them."

"Yea" I smile, "You're right!"

She puts her hoof over my shoulder.

"Thank you for being my special somepony tonight as well... It means alot to me." She says, blushing.

"Hey, no problem" I peck her on the cheek, which turns her more red, "now lets go back inside, shall we?"

She nods and we head back for the town hall. So far so good! But we still have alot of night left to spend, so lets get this party started! As soon as I think that, Pinkie is right beside me.

"Party?!" Pinkie shouts.

"PINKIE, STOP IT! NO FOURTH WALL BREAKING! THAT'S MY JOB!"

"awww..." She frowns and walks off.

As I was saying, lets get this party started!
