Betrayed by Love
(AKA The first official Spikelight ship story) XD
Chapter 1
It was morning in Equestria. The light was shining into Twilight's room. Waking up, she yawned and used her wings to lift herself off her bed.
“What a beautiful morning.” she remarked, flexing her wings.
She had a lot of stuff she needed to take care of, but she wasn't sure what to start with. Spike was still asleep, snoring in a way Twilight found adorable. Slowly, she walked over to his bed and smiled, watching the gentle rise-and-fall of his chest. Twilight smiled at her assistant's calm nature. She sat there for several seconds, until Spike started to get woken up by sunlight flooding the room. As Spike began to stir, Twilight quickly galloped out of the room and went down to the kitchen to make breakfast, hoping he hadn't noticed her. Why couldn't I move? she wondered, remembering how she had wasted almost a minute by watching Spike sleep. She however, shrugged it off, and started to make breakfast. Spike emerged a few seconds later, with a relaxed look on his face.
"Hey Twilight! What's up?"
Twilight let out a yawn and flipped the pancake. "The roof is, silly. You get a good night's sleep?"
Spike nodded, and grabbed a toothpick and started using it between his teeth. He wasn't really sure what the point was, but it was a bit of a habit he had developed. Twilight brought a stack pancakes to the table, but when she set them down, she didn't see Spike.
"Spike? Where are you? I have pancakes!" she called, looking around. "I made them the way you like them!"
A few seconds later, Spike came downstairs wearing a tacky outfit that kind of looked like something a jester would wear if he was rich. "Sorry," he apologized. "I was just putting my loot suit on."
Twilight narrowed her eyes. "Your what?"
Spike rolled his eyes. "It's this thing you wear to get girls to notice you. And something tells me Rarity is going to notice me."
Twilight groaned. "Spike, there's more to wooing a mare than a tacky outfit. I'm a mare, why don't you ask me for advice?"
Spike thought for a second. "Hmm...good idea...hey Twilight, can I ask you something?"
Twilight face-hoofed herself, and after eating an awkward breakfast, sat Spike down and started talking to him.
"The first thing you need to do is talk to her and make her feel important." Twilight explained; "Kind of like yesterday when you comforted Fluttershy when she lost her Ice cream cone. "To be fair, just treat Rarity like she's me, only you want to ask her out on a date."
Spike thought for a couple seconds. "Got it. Treat Rarity well and make her feel important. Gee, it's not like I don't already do that." he said the last sentence with a smote of arrogance.
Without giving her a chance to reply, Spike got up, put his loot suit back on, and walked out the door.
"Sorry Twilight, but I think I've got this." he said, half out loud, half to himself. Spike began to walk down the road to Rarity's house.
“Hey Spike!” Rainbow Dash said, giving Spike a friendly nod.
Spike waved. “Hey Rainbow Dash.”
“What’s up?”
Spike smiled. “Oh, I’m going to ask Rarity out.” he replied.
“Sweet!” Rainbow Dash said. “I hope it goes well.”
Spike nodded. “I hope the same.”
Rainbow Dash hugged Spike. “Good luck!”
Spike returned the friendly gesture and added farewell.
As he continued his trip, he started to feel guilty. He had ignored Twilight when she had been trying to help him, and hadn't even thanked her for breakfast. But he forced the feelings of guilt away as he knocked on Rarity's door. So what if Twilight wanted to lecture him? He wasn't an idiot.
Spike didn't get a reply, but he noticed the door was unlocked. Part of him told him he shouldn't go in, but his curiosity finally won over, and he opened the door very quietly. The shop was empty, but he saw a light in one of the rooms upstairs. Slowly tiptoeing further, he started hearing whispering. Spike starting walking slowly upstairs, and stopped in front of the door. I shouldn't do this. The sane part of him argued. Spike however, couldn't stop now. The whispering had gotten louder, and he could make out Rarity's voice...and somepony he didn't recognize.
Spike peeped in, slowly. His heart stopped when he saw Rarity. Rarity was talking to a large brown unicorn stallion, and to his horror, they spotted him. The stallion jerked his head away, and glared at dragon.
"Who are you?!?" he shouted, using his magic to grab Spike and slam him up against the wall. "Why were you spying on us?!?"
Spike shuddered in fear. He tried to break free, but it was no use. The stallion was pissed, and Spike knew he had no choice but to open up his feelings.
Author's Note
Wow...this was interesting. Just as a disclaimer, this is my first fanfiction ever, so if it's not perfect, you know why XD. I do have good grammar, so I think I'm good w/ that. If you would like to give me some pointers, that would be great! More chapters coming every day! 
Chapter 2: Firedust the Terrible
Chapter 2
"I'm sorry!" Spike shouted, trying to break free.
"It's just...I...came over here to see what's going on!" he gasped.
Rarity looked at him guiltily, knowing that he hadn't meant any harm. "Firedust, please let him go. He's just my friend, and he didn't know that you were here." she begged, tugging at his back leg. Spike had no idea what Rarity was doing here. Was this some sort of sick prank?
Firedust whipped around to face her and struck Rarity across the face. "Listen up, bitch," he spat. "I thought I told you not to take that tone with me!"
Rarity let out a sob, and let her head droop to the ground. What is going on? Spike wondered in horror, as Firedust turned back to face him, his fury changing to icy calm. How does Rarity know this freak? Spike wondered. Suddenly, Firedust’s horn glowed a yellowish color, and a yellow beam struck inside of Spike's throat. Spike felt an agonizing sensation, as he wailed in pain. Rarity let out a shriek of horror, and tried to stop Firedust from what he was doing.
"Please don't hurt him! I'll do anything you say!" she shrieked, breaking down into tears. Firedust stopped using his magic and turned to face her. "Anything?"
Rarity sobbed and nodded.
Firedust grinned wickedly, and levitated a rope around Rarity, securing her from moving.
“Very well, DARLING. I will save this pathetic waste of a dragon if you agree to be my prisoner for ransom.” Firedust said. “Otherwise, this dragon and your little sister will both die.”
Rarity sobbed and nodded. “If that is what you want. Just don’t hurt him...or Sweetie Belle.”
Firedust yawned. “I really can’t if I’m keeping you my prisoner, you idiot. And don’t think for a moment being my prisoner will be fun. If you dare challenge me, you will be tortured; physically, mentally, and emotionally; and I’ll enjoy every moment.”
Rarity nodded sadly. “Can I say goodbye to my friend?”
“No!” Firedust said. “You know too much, I’m not going to risk you blurting something into his ear!”
With that, he tied up her muzzle with a rag, preventing her from speaking.
“Time to remove this shitwad from the premises.” Firedust sneered, picking Spike up.
Spike tried to fight, but the pain his was feeling was agonizing, and Firedust decided to give him a few more punches and kicks for amusement before finally levitating him outside to the back, knocking him into a pile of trash cans and laughing viciously.
“Are you going to mess with me and my marefriend, bitch?” he shouted, punching Spike in the face.
Spike tried to reply, but he was in so much pain only a whimper came out.
“DID YOU HEAR ME?!? I ASKED YOU A QUESTION!”
“N-(cough) no…” Spike moaned, barely audible.
Firedust laughed. “Good. Oh, and do you really think a pathetic loser like you would win this crying little brat’s heart?”
Spike tried to say; “No! She’s not yours! She doesn’t like you! You’re mean!” But only a pained gasp came out.
Firedust laughed viciously, before slamming Spike to the earth as hard as possible. “Have a great day.” he jeered.
Spike started to cry, although his sobbing was barely audible. He had been hurt both emotionally and physically. He was tempted to get up and try to save Rarity, but his incredible pain and emotional scarring were overwhelming. Within a few minutes, he passed out…
...
“Spike? What happened?!?”
...
“Get help! Spike’s unconscious!”
…
“Can I see him? I want to see my assistant!”
…
“Spike, it’s me Twilight. Please Spike, wake up…”
...
After hours, maybe even a few days of fading in and out of consciousness, Spike finally came to…
Spike saw a shaft of light grow larger as his eyes started to open. As color started to appear, he found himself in a room hooked up to a system of strange health equipment.
Spike turned his head, and saw Twilight, her face planted into his bed, crying.
“Oh Spike.” she murmured, her words barely audible with her face planted into the mattress. “Please wake up…”
Spike smiled, and weakly raised her arm to pet her ears, shocking her.
“Spike!” she said, jumping into his hospital bed, and hugging him, sobbing as he continued to pet her head.
“It’s ok, Twilight. I’m ok now.” he whispered, suddenly coughing violently.
“Easy Spike!” Twilight said, trying to mask her fear.
Spike hugged her. “Don’t worry, Twilight. I’m going to be fine. How long was I out?”
Twilight bit her lip. “T-two days.”
Spike frowned. “Wow.” As he looked closer at Twilight, he could see lines under her eyes. She looked tired. Had she been watching him the whole time?
Spike looked closer, at her cute purple eyes, feeling a sense of security at her kind gaze.
“Don’t worry Twilight. I won’t die on my best friend.”
Twilight smiled. “You’re right. You’re going to be ok.”
Spike nodded. “Well I think I should go back to sleep. I’m still pretty tired.”
Twilight looked ready to object, but Spike let out a deep yawn and closed his eyes.
Twilight smiled and pulled a blanket around him. “Sleep well Spike.” she murmured.
Although she hated to admit it, she was pretty tired from her long vigil, but she wasn’t ready to leave Spike yet, so she sat down in a chair and tried to stay awake, but eventually passed out, feeling relieved that Spike was alive, but full of questions to ask him...
