Original Lifeby HeartBeatChaptersChapter 1: After All this Time...Chapter 2: ...We Meet AgainChapter 3: ReacquaintedChapter 4: The Bond RebuildsChapter 1: After All this Time...Chapter 1: After All this Time... Frost stood in the rain and watched the ponies get off the train. One, by one, the ponies stepped out from the doors. Every different face made his heart sink in sadness. It's been so long, Ditzy... Why haven't you come back? I miss you so much. Have you found somepony else? I hope your a lot happier there. Frost was happy that it was raining, because he didn't want anypony to see the tears streaming down his face. He watched the final few ponies get off the train and approach their friends and family. The happy faces light up as they saw their loved ones. Everypony approached their friends and family and hugged. Frost just turned his head and began a slow trot back to his home. His memories began to haunt his head again. -2 Years Ago- "Are you sure that you have to go?" Frost asked, holding on to Ditzy's hoof. "I'm sorry, Frost. My job requires me to get a re-evaluation of flight school. Since I didn't really finish, I need to take a summer course in Canterlot." Ditzy said, now holding Frost in her embrace. Frost let her go and brushed a tear from his eye. Ditzy placed a hoof on his shoulder and gave him a small smile. "It's just for the summer. Two months isn't a long time." Ditzy said nuzzling him. "It is if I'm not with you." Frost said wrapping his hooves around her. "Bye." She said softly. "Bye..." Frost replied, feeling his heart slowly sink. Frost smiled and waved goodbye as she boarded the train. The doors shut and Ditzy popped her head out the window. Frost looked and smiled as she gave him a wave goodbye. The train slowly began to move and she popped her head back in the window. "I'm missing her already." Frost said to himself as he slowly trotted back to his house. As Frost shivered in the cold rain, he held his head low. He saw his reflection in a puddle below. His eyes had dark rings around them again. His mane covered one of his eyes. As he gave a small sigh, Frost continued down the muddy path to his house. The sound of rain beating against the window calmed him. He closed his eyes and began let his mind wander in memories again. -End of the First Year's Summer- Frost had anticipated this day for so long. He had woke up really early to be sure he watched as the train arrived. In his mouth, he bit down on a rose to give Ditzy once she arrives. The train came to a stop and Frost's heart was pounding out of his chest as his smile grew wider. Every pony left the train and ponies began to board. Frantically looking for Ditzy, his heart began to break. The train slowly left the station and the rose hit the floor. His eyes spread with shock and sorrow as he watched the train disappear in the distance. A tear hit the cold wood below Frost's hooves. Another depressing sigh echoed through the quite house. Frost had given up hope and sat on his haunches. As he looked around the empty room, something caught his eye. Under the dresser, was a letter with a heart on it. He opened it up and read the perfect writing on the paper. Dear Frost, I want you to know how much I love being around you. When we were fillies, I could never keep my mind off you. As much as it pains me to leave next summer, my heart always belongs to you. I will never give up on you, Frost. -Love Ditzy A tear landed on the small pink heart that was drawn at the bottom of the page. His heart ignited and he slammed a hoof on the ground. "Ditzy, I'm coming to find out what happened to you!" He roared in the silence of his house. Packing up his things, he also stuck the letter in his bags. Back out into the rain, he flew up above the clouds. Hope began to form in his heart as he began his search for Ditzy. After what seemed to be hours of flight, he collapsed at the doors of an inn. Opening them, he began to rent a room for a week. Taking the room key, he trotted up the stairs to the next level, where his room will be. Opening the door, he saw the bed and instantly collapsed on it. Even though it had some questionable stains, he was far to tired to care. Closing his eyes, he fell asleep to the sound of the rain. Opening his eyes, he let out a large yawn and began to trot to the mirror. He saw the pony before him, so pent up looking and sad. He sighed again and took off his still wet hoodie and hung it over a chair. Out the window, he saw many ponies wandering the streets. As he grabbed his bags, he opened the door and trotted down to the lobby. Outside, the warm sun had already evaporated some of the puddles. Shielding his eyes with a hoof, he flipped his made over his face to block some of the light. As he began to trot to the flight school Ditzy told him about, he began to wonder what to ask her once he finds her. As he opened the door to the building, a mare sitting behind a desk glared at him. "May I help you, sir?" The mare asked him. "Yes, I'm looking for somepony actually. Her name is Ditzy Doo. She told me that she came here some time ago." Frost said, sitting in front of the desk. "Hmm.... Ah yes, Miss Doo." She said, flipping through a book. "She came for a re-evaluation then disappeared. I'm sorry, but that's all I know." "Oh, okay..." Frost sighed trotting through the doors. As he sat down at a coffee shop, he began to think of the next place to check. A waiter floated a cup of coffee over to him and set it in front of him. He looked up to her and saw a smile on her face. "Here sweetie. You seem a little down. Take this cup on the house." The unicorn said softly. "Uh, thanks..." Frost said looking at her, and forcing a smile. He was a little shocked by a sudden gift of generosity. Calming his mind, he took a sip and set it back down on the table. He rested his head on the table and sighed. Suddenly, a sudden burst of stinging heat spread over his leg. Standing up he began to wipe the hot coffee that had been spilled on it. Looking back at the table, he saw a baby unicorn. Her coat was a light purple and she had a golden mane. After she finished giggling, she opened her eyes, revealing her crossed eyes. Frost took a deep breath an sat back down. "It's alright. Ya know, you remind me of... An old friend." Frost said, patting the little filly on the head. "I'm terribly sorry sir! Dinky, please don't leave mommy's side again!" A voice said. "Oh thats okay. Its not a bi-" Frost stopped in his tracks and looked at the mare that stood before him. A sudden knot formed in his throat and he swallowed it down, trying to speak. A soft mutter sounded from his lips. "D... Ditzy?" Chapter 2: ...We Meet AgainChapter 2: ...We Meet Again. "Um, Do I know-" She took a deep breath and held a hoof to her mouth. Tears began to stream down her face and her daughter sat on the table, confused. Frost stood there and looked at the mare that has changed so much. Her mane was much longer and a more beautiful gold. His gaze turned to what appeared to be her daughter. A tear stung his eye and hit the cold floor below him. "F-Frost? Is that you." She said, trembling. "Hello Ditzy." Frost said, letting his ears drop to the sides of his head. He had finally found her, but what he feared was true. She had found somepony else who gave her a daughter. Frost could feel his heart slowly pounding in his chest. His breathing became unsteady as he tried not to burst out into tears. "Frost. How did you find me?" She asked him, stepping closer. "Because I thought I had loved you." He said, taking a step back away from her. "I came here because I was hurt. I couldn't stand to be away from the pony I had loved for so long. But now I see that that Ditzy has moved on. You found somepony else and completely ignored me, leaving me back in Ponyville with painful memories." Ditzy was now crying as she began to fall apart in front of him. Frost let out a grunt and looked over to the filly that was giggling on the table. He blew steam from his nose and turned his glare back to Ditzy. "I hope it was worth ripping my hear out." Frost said trotting out of the coffee shop. "Frost... It's not like that!" She said as he passed by her. "What do you mean? I see that you don't care about me anymore. You clearly are living a happier life with your daughter and this new stallion, where ever he is." He said flinging the door open. Ditzy picked up her daughter and followed Frost in the streets. She saw him angrily stomp through the streets. The ponies watched as he breathed heavily as he continued down the busy road. "Frost!" He heard her call his name and he looked back to see Ditzy trying her best to catch up. He huffed and began to pick up the pace, now in a full out sprint. Using her wings to trot faster, Ditzy caught up to the sprinting pony to see the anger and betrayal in his eyes. She saw that there was no feeling left in those icy eyes. Just a hollow pony with no love or affection, just hate and pain. "Frost stop, and listen!" She stood in his path and he dashed around her. She began to plead him to stop and listen again as they approached his motel room. Quickly fishing out the key from his pocket he opened the door and slammed it in Ditzy's face. He collapsed on the other side of the door and began to cry. Crawled up in a ball on the cold floor, the tears streamed down his face and began to form a small puddle. "Frost, PLEASE, hear me out!" Ditzy said banging on the door. "I don't want to hear it!" Frost roared, pressing his hooves against his pounding head. "It's not what you think at all!" She cried. "Than what happened, HUH?" He yelled leaning against the door. Frost sat in silence and waited for an answer. He heard her daughter crying her eyes out from the other side of the door. He heard Ditzy whimpering as she slid down on the other side of the door. He gave up on her and began to trot to his bags. "I was raped, Frost." The words echoed in his head, causing him to stop dead in his tracks. "W-what?" Frost said approaching the door again. "When I came here, my roommate kicked me out after my evaluation. She said that I was too much of a nuisance. My train tickets weren't usable until a week after I had finished so I had no place to stay for a whole week. I would have tried to fly, but I didn't know where I was heading. I'm not very good with directions. But a nice stallion took me in. He fed me and gave me a bed to sleep in. I had thought everything was going okay until he wanted his first day's payment. I tried to give him bits but... he wanted... he wanted something else. And I found out that I was pregnant afterwards. They took him away and I never saw him again, but what he left me was Dinky. She has been there to show me not to give in. Like you used to be, but I guess that Frost no longer exists." Ditzy was now crying on the other side of the door holding her daughter. Frost held his head in his hooves and had the worst time taking this all in. Tears fell on the cold floor and his stomach was churning. He stumbled to his hooves and held the doorknob in his hoof, but then he heard Ditzy getting up. "I couldn't bare it to come home. I thought you would have hated and ignored me for this. But I only made it worse. I can see that the long wait has made you change completely. I looked into your eyes for the first time in so long, and all I saw was pain. I want you to know that I still love you Frost. I wanted you to know all of this... before you left back home. I understand you hate me for not coming home, but know that I never forgot about you. I stayed up all night crying for days. I hated myself... Goodbye Frost." Ditzy began to trot away. >Author's note: Okay I decided not to make you wait painfully. So there will be chapter updated, but they will be taking a while. I am currently working on another fic at the moment, go ahead and check that out. If not, do as you please. P.S. My two editors are in completely different places: Costa Rica and Australia. I think I need an editor who is still in the USA who can work with me. If you would like to be that editor, go ahead and send me a private message. Chapter 3: ReacquaintedChapter 3: Reacquainted Frost swing open the door and lunged at Ditzy. His hooves wrapped tightly around her and she returned the embrace. Frost began to feel the warmth of her body against his. She cried on his shoulder and gripped him tightly. Frost held her against him, silently begging her to never leave again. His mind began to flash all of the memories he had with Ditzy. From when they were young, to their first night together. He couldn't concentrate on anything around him. His world had become complete again, for he had felt the embrace of the mare he had missed for so long. Ditzy pulled out of the embrace and leaned in to Frost. Their lips collided for a short time, but it was enough to take Frost completely off-guard. His muscles tensed but soon relaxed as they returned to their long embrace. Lightning stuck across the sky and didn't phase the two long-time lovers. "I've missed you so much, Ditzy." Frost softly said, holding her tight. "I missed you too." She cried in happiness. The rain began to fall around them and Dinky began to splash in a nearby puddle. Frost slowly let her go to see a comforting smile on her face. "C'mon, let's get inside." Frost said, opening the door to his room. Ditzy retrieved her daughter and trotted inside the motel room. Frost grabbed towels from the bathroom and handed two to Ditzy. Using one, she dried herself off then used the other for Dinky. Frost dried off his soaked mane and sat down in one of the chairs at a table. Ditzy sat across from him and set Dinky in her lap. Frost looked up at Ditzy and couldn't believe he had finally found her, and after all this time, he felt warm inside again. He had felt empty the entire time Dizty was away. Ditzy turned to Frost looking a bit worried. "What now?" She asked Frost. "Well, the next train to Ponyville comes tomorrow afternoon. As much as I would love for you to come back with me, I don't want to force anything onto you." Frost said, leaning back in his chair. "Oh, I actually do want to come back to Ponyville. Get that job as the mailmare, then live in my old house." Ditzy said, looking out the window as the rain poured down. "That sounds great. But what will you do about Dinky when your working?" Frost asked her, patting the little filly on the head. "Well, come to think of it, could you watch her for me?" She asked, giving a smile to him. "I'd be more than happy to." He said, looking down at Dinky. Dinky crawled out of her mothers lap and onto the table. She trotted on the table over to him and sat in the empty space in front of him on the table. She giggled and held up her hooves to him. Ditzy gave a little laugh as she watched her daughter. "She wants you to hold her, Frost." She said. "Oh, okay then." Frost picked up the small filly and held her in his hooves. Dinky looked up to Frost with her mother's eyes and giggled again. She let out a small yawn and blinked her eyes a few times. Frost watched as Dinky fell asleep in his hooves. Little snores echoed through the room and a tear dripped down Frost's cheek. Lightning struck again and thunder roared through the city. Ditzy and Frost looked out the window and saw the sun was behind thin clouds and was now raining heavily outside. Ditzy sighed as she trotted over to her bags. "Wait, I can't let you go out there in the rain. Stay with me for the night. Or at least wait for the rain to stop." Frost said, approaching Ditzy. "Thank you Frost." She said, giving him a smile. She placed her bags on the floor and sat down again with Frost. They watched the rain outside the window and occasionally shared a hug or a small kiss. The sky had turned jet black and the rain outside still roared on. Ditzy yawned and rested her head in her hooves on the table. Frost picked her up and placed her on the bed, tucking her in like she was a little filly. Dinky was fast asleep and Frost gave her to Ditzy. She held her daughter in her hooves and fell into a deep sleep. Frost shut out the lights and laid in the bed next to Ditzy. He began to hear them snore softly as they slept. A warm fuzzy feeling returned to Frost. It had been so long since he felt it, it almost seemed foreign to him. He closed his eyes and drifted off. Chapter 4: The Bond RebuildsChapter 4: The Bond Rebuilds It has been almost a week after the two had gotten reunited. Their love reformed as they started to date again. Frost became his normal self again, with the help of Ditzy. They comforted each other when they needed it. Just like old times, Ditzy would occasionally be laughed at or made fun of because of her eyes. Ditzy paid no mind to their comments and moved on. Frost would make sure that she wasn't letting their words get to her. Ditzy eventually met a very kind mare who would look after Dinky, named Carrot Top. She watched over Dinky as they left for their date that they had planned for tonight. Frost had gone to the marked earlier that day to get a surprise for Ditzy. Now, they are trotting together under the beautiful sunset over Ponyville. "I got a special place chosen tonight, Ditzy." Frost told her. "Oh? Where?" She asked. "Wait and see." Frost said, trying to keep it a surprise. They arrived at their destination and Frost held his hooves up at the sign above the door. "Sugar Cube Corner" read the sign. Ditzy gasped at the sight of the shop. It had changed a little since she was gone. A bar had been added to the side for adult ponies, and Pinkie now ran the shop. Ditzy quickly entered the door and Pinkie instantly bounced over to her. "Ditzy! I haven't seen you in sooooo long! I got worried and felt really sad, but now you're here! And I'm happy again!" Exclaimed the pink pony. "Good to see you again, Pinkie." Ditzy tried to say through Pinkie's intense hug. "Okay, back to sweets!" Pinkie said, bouncing back behind the counter. "What'll you have?" "I'll have the apple cinnamon muffin and a chocolate milkshake." She said, almost drooling over the thought of eating the muffin she hadn't tasted in so long. "And I'll have a cupcake and the same shake." Frost ordered. "Okay, here you go! That will be 35 bits please!" Pinkie said, setting the tray of food on the counter. Frost placed the bits on the counter and Pinkie scooped them up. Ditzy picked up the tray with her teeth and trotted towards their same seat. Ditzy tripped over one of her hooves and the tray went flying into the air. Frost instantly reacted and grabbed Ditzy and her muffin. He looked down into her eyes and heard the crashing of the two shakes as they hit the floor. He remembered that Ditzy had done the same thing on their first date 12 years ago. He looked down into her glowing gold eyes and she remembered the same thing. Instead of crying like she did before, Ditzy leaned in and kissed Frost. He leaned into her and kissed her back, almost dropping the muffin. They broke their kiss and smiled at each other. Frost helped Ditzy back up to her hooves and handed her the muffin. She gave him a kiss on the cheek and looked down at the drinks. "Sorry." She apologized, looking at the shakes then back to Frost. "No worries." He said, gazing into her eyes again. Ditzy took a seat at the same booth and began to nibble on her muffin. Frost bought a large milkshake to split between him and Ditzy. He grabbed two straws and returned to Ditzy. She looked at the empty spot in front of him and looked back down at her muffin. Frost knew what she was about to do. She split her muffin in two pieces and slid one to Frost. He smiled and thanked her, taking a bite from the warm muffin. She giggled as they both took a sip from the milkshake that sat in between them on the table. They finished their drink and Frost began to flap his wings as they left the sweet shop. "C'mon, follow me!" Frost said taking flight. "Lead the way!" Ditzy said, leaping off the ground. Frost lead Ditzy to the spot where he first kissed her. The large tree had really changed since they last saw it. Many memories were shared at that spot. The tree had grown large enough for the two fully grown ponies to sit in complete shade. They sat together and watched as the sun began to set down behind the mountains in the distance. Ditzy leaned her head on Frost and he nuzzled her. "Hey Ditzy." Frost said softly. "Hmm?" She hummed, looking up at him. "I want you to know how much I love you. But there isn't really anyway I can begin to start. So, I think this should show you how much I love you..." Frost reached into his bags and Ditzy watched as he pulled out a small, dark blue box. "Ditzy Doo, will you marry me?" Frost opened the box and Ditzy face lit up. Tears streamed down her face as she held a hoof over her mouth. Frost smiled at her and felt his heart pounding out of his chest. Ditzy looked at the box and back up to Frost. Before Frost knew it, he ended up on his back in the dirt. He was being held on the ground, given a barrage of kisses from the mare. She sat up and held the box in her hooves, still crying tears of joy. "Of course I'll marry you!" She exclaimed, hugging Frost tightly again. Together, they laid in each other's embrace. Their bond that has been separated for 2 years, was finally reformed, and became something more. Soon they were to get married, and Dinky would become his daughter. Frost almost began to cry, like Ditzy was then. He held her tight and waited for the rest of their days to pass by together, being there for each other and for Dinky. Frost and Ditzy happily trotted back to Ponyville, to tell their friends and family about the great news. The End...
Chapter 1: After All this Time...Chapter 1: After All this Time... Frost stood in the rain and watched the ponies get off the train. One, by one, the ponies stepped out from the doors. Every different face made his heart sink in sadness. It's been so long, Ditzy... Why haven't you come back? I miss you so much. Have you found somepony else? I hope your a lot happier there. Frost was happy that it was raining, because he didn't want anypony to see the tears streaming down his face. He watched the final few ponies get off the train and approach their friends and family. The happy faces light up as they saw their loved ones. Everypony approached their friends and family and hugged. Frost just turned his head and began a slow trot back to his home. His memories began to haunt his head again. -2 Years Ago- "Are you sure that you have to go?" Frost asked, holding on to Ditzy's hoof. "I'm sorry, Frost. My job requires me to get a re-evaluation of flight school. Since I didn't really finish, I need to take a summer course in Canterlot." Ditzy said, now holding Frost in her embrace. Frost let her go and brushed a tear from his eye. Ditzy placed a hoof on his shoulder and gave him a small smile. "It's just for the summer. Two months isn't a long time." Ditzy said nuzzling him. "It is if I'm not with you." Frost said wrapping his hooves around her. "Bye." She said softly. "Bye..." Frost replied, feeling his heart slowly sink. Frost smiled and waved goodbye as she boarded the train. The doors shut and Ditzy popped her head out the window. Frost looked and smiled as she gave him a wave goodbye.

I thought you would have hated and ignored me for this. But I only made it worse. I can see that the long wait has made you change completely. I looked into your eyes for the first time in so long, and all I saw was pain. I want you to know that I still love you Frost. I wanted you to know all of this... before you left back home. I understand you hate me for not coming home, but know that I never forgot about you. I stayed up all night crying for days. I hated myself... Goodbye Frost." Ditzy began to trot away. >Author's note: Okay I decided not to make you wait painfully. So there will be chapter updated, but they will be taking a while. I am currently working on another fic at the moment, go ahead and check that out. If not, do as you please. P.S. My two editors are in completely different places: Costa Rica and Australia. I think I need an editor who is still in the USA who can work with me. If you would like to be that editor, go ahead and send me a private message.
Chapter 3: ReacquaintedChapter 3: Reacquainted Frost swing open the door and lunged at Ditzy. His hooves wrapped tightly around her and she returned the embrace. Frost began to feel the warmth of her body against his. She cried on his shoulder and gripped him tightly. Frost held her against him, silently begging her to never leave again. His mind began to flash all of the memories he had with Ditzy. From when they were young, to their first night together. He couldn't concentrate on anything around him. His world had become complete again, for he had felt the embrace of the mare he had missed for so long. Ditzy pulled out of the embrace and leaned in to Frost. Their lips collided for a short time, but it was enough to take Frost completely off-guard. His muscles tensed but soon relaxed as they returned to their long embrace. Lightning stuck across the sky and didn't phase the two long-time lovers. "I've missed you so much, Ditzy." Frost softly said, holding her tight. "I missed you too." She cried in happiness. The rain began to fall around them and Dinky began to splash in a nearby puddle. Frost slowly let her go to see a comforting smile on her face. "C'mon, let's get inside." Frost said, opening the door to his room. Ditzy retrieved her daughter and trotted inside the motel room. Frost grabbed towels from the bathroom and handed two to Ditzy. Using one, she dried herself off then used the other for Dinky. Frost dried off his soaked mane and sat down in one of the chairs at a table. Ditzy sat across from him and set Dinky in her lap. Frost looked up at Ditzy and couldn't believe he had finally found her, and after all this time, he felt warm inside again. He had felt empty the entire time Dizty was away. Ditzy turned to Frost looking a bit worried. "What now?" She asked Frost. "Well, the next train to Ponyville comes tomorrow afternoon. As much as I would love for you to come back with me, I don't want to force anything onto you." Frost said, leaning back in his chair. "Oh, I actually do want to come back to Ponyville. Get that job as the mailmare, then live in my old house." Ditzy said, looking out the window as the rain poured down. "That sounds great. But what will you do about Dinky when your working?" Frost asked her, patting the little filly on the head. "Well, come to think of it, could you watch her for me?" She asked, giving a smile to him. "I'd be more than happy to." He said, looking down at Dinky. Dinky crawled out of her mothers lap and onto the table. She trotted on the table over to him and sat in the empty space in front of him on the table. She giggled and held up her hooves to him. Ditzy gave a little laugh as she watched her daughter. "She wants you to hold her, Frost." She said. "Oh, okay then." Frost picked up the small filly and held her in his hooves. Dinky looked up to Frost with her mother's eyes and giggled again. She let out a small yawn and blinked her eyes a few times. Frost watched as Dinky fell asleep in his hooves. Little snores echoed through the room and a tear dripped down Frost's cheek. Lightning struck again and thunder roared through the city. Ditzy and Frost looked out the window and saw the sun was behind thin clouds and was now raining heavily outside. Ditzy sighed as she trotted over to her bags. "Wait, I can't let you go out there in the rain. Stay with me for the night. Or at least wait for the rain to stop." Frost said, approaching Ditzy. "Thank you Frost." She said, giving him a smile. She placed her bags on the floor and sat down again with Frost. They watched the rain outside the window and occasionally shared a hug or a small kiss. The sky had turned jet black and the rain outside still roared on. Ditzy yawned and rested her head in her hooves on the table. Frost picked her up and placed her on the bed, tucking her in like she was a little filly. Dinky was fast asleep and Frost gave her to Ditzy. She held her daughter in her hooves and fell into a deep sleep. Frost shut out the lights and laid in the bed next to Ditzy. He began to hear them snore softly as they slept. A warm fuzzy feeling returned to Frost. It had been so long since he felt it, it almost seemed foreign to him. He closed his eyes and drifted off.
Chapter 4: The Bond RebuildsChapter 4: The Bond Rebuilds It has been almost a week after the two had gotten reunited. Their love reformed as they started to date again. Frost became his normal self again, with the help of Ditzy. They comforted each other when they needed it. Just like old times, Ditzy would occasionally be laughed at or made fun of because of her eyes. Ditzy paid no mind to their comments and moved on. Frost would make sure that she wasn't letting their words get to her. Ditzy eventually met a very kind mare who would look after Dinky, named Carrot Top. She watched over Dinky as they left for their date that they had planned for tonight. Frost had gone to the marked earlier that day to get a surprise for Ditzy. Now, they are trotting together under the beautiful sunset over Ponyville. "I got a special place chosen tonight, Ditzy." Frost told her. "Oh? Where?" She asked. "Wait and see." Frost said, trying to keep it a surprise. They arrived at their destination and Frost held his hooves up at the sign above the door. "Sugar Cube Corner" read the sign. Ditzy gasped at the sight of the shop. It had changed a little since she was gone. A bar had been added to the side for adult ponies, and Pinkie now ran the shop. Ditzy quickly entered the door and Pinkie instantly bounced over to her. "Ditzy! I haven't seen you in sooooo long! I got worried and felt really sad, but now you're here! And I'm happy again!" Exclaimed the pink pony. "Good to see you again, Pinkie." Ditzy tried to say through Pinkie's intense hug. "Okay, back to sweets!" Pinkie said, bouncing back behind the counter. "What'll you have?" "I'll have the apple cinnamon muffin and a chocolate milkshake." She said, almost drooling over the thought of eating the muffin she hadn't tasted in so long. "And I'll have a cupcake and the same shake." Frost ordered. "Okay, here you go! That will be 35 bits please!" Pinkie said, setting the tray of food on the counter. Frost placed the bits on the counter and Pinkie scooped them up. Ditzy picked up the tray with her teeth and trotted towards their same seat. Ditzy tripped over one of her hooves and the tray went flying into the air. Frost instantly reacted and grabbed Ditzy and her muffin. He looked down into her eyes and heard the crashing of the two shakes as they hit the floor. He remembered that Ditzy had done the same thing on their first date 12 years ago. He looked down into her glowing gold eyes and she remembered the same thing. Instead of crying like she did before, Ditzy leaned in and kissed Frost. He leaned into her and kissed her back, almost dropping the muffin. They broke their kiss and smiled at each other. Frost helped Ditzy back up to her hooves and handed her the muffin. She gave him a kiss on the cheek and looked down at the drinks. "Sorry." She apologized, looking at the shakes then back to Frost. "No worries." He said, gazing into her eyes again. Ditzy took a seat at the same booth and began to nibble on her muffin. Frost bought a large milkshake to split between him and Ditzy. He grabbed two straws and returned to Ditzy. She looked at the empty spot in front of him and looked back down at her muffin. Frost knew what she was about to do. She split her muffin in two pieces and slid one to Frost. He smiled and thanked her, taking a bite from the warm muffin. She giggled as they both took a sip from the milkshake that sat in between them on the table. They finished their drink and Frost began to flap his wings as they left the sweet shop. "C'mon, follow me!" Frost said taking flight. "Lead the way!" Ditzy said, leaping off the ground. Frost lead Ditzy to the spot where he first kissed her. The large tree had really changed since they last saw it. Many memories were shared at that spot. The tree had grown large enough for the two fully grown ponies to sit in complete shade. They sat together and watched as the sun began to set down behind the mountains in the distance. Ditzy leaned her head on Frost and he nuzzled her. "Hey Ditzy." Frost said softly. "Hmm?" She hummed, looking up at him. "I want you to know how much I love you. But there isn't really anyway I can begin to start. So, I think this should show you how much I love you..." Frost reached into his bags and Ditzy watched as he pulled out a small, dark blue box. "Ditzy Doo, will you marry me?" Frost opened the box and Ditzy face lit up. Tears streamed down her face as she held a hoof over her mouth. Frost smiled at her and felt his heart pounding out of his chest. Ditzy looked at the box and back up to Frost. Before Frost knew it, he ended up on his back in the dirt. He was being held on the ground, given a barrage of kisses from the mare. She sat up and held the box in her hooves, still crying tears of joy. "Of course I'll marry you!" She exclaimed, hugging Frost tightly again. Together, they laid in each other's embrace. Their bond that has been separated for 2 years, was finally reformed, and became something more. Soon they were to get married, and Dinky would become his daughter. Frost almost began to cry, like Ditzy was then. He held her tight and waited for the rest of their days to pass by together, being there for each other and for Dinky. Frost and Ditzy happily trotted back to Ponyville, to tell their friends and family about the great news. The End...
