The Engagement Party

Previous Chapter

"So, how exactly did Pinkie find out?" Fluttershy asked as the pegasi couple flew toward the Castle of Friendship.

"Well before our date last night, Twilight kinda gave me a pep talk because I was nervous about proposing to you. I guess she told Pinkie about everything when she got home, and you know how Pinkie is. If she can throw a party, she is going to throw one." Rainbow explained.

"Makes sense," Fluttershy responded as the two approached the castle,"This was really nice of her though, plus it gives me a chance to talk to Rarity. I want her to make my wedding dress." Rainbow blushed at the pegasi's mention of a wedding gown, she knew Rarity would go all out on making sure her friend had the most extravagant dress of the century.

"A-already planning thew-wedding huh?" Rainbow stuttered, her eyes dilating. Fluttershy only laugh,

"Of course I am! I have always dreamed of what our wedding would be like!"

"Our wedding? Wow Shy...I don't know how I was ever nervous about proposing to you." Fluttershy smiled and kissed Rainbow on the cheek.

"You're so silly Dashie, come on, the castle is just down there."


"This was so nice girls, we can't thank you enough," Rainbow said as she took another sip of her cider while using her free hoof to support Fluttershy, who was leaning against her, her head on her chest.

"It was no problem! You guys are such an adorable couple!" Pinkie exclaimed, making both pegasi blush.

"So have you given any thought to the wedding yet? I mean, I know you just got engaged." Twilight said, wrapping her wings around Pinkie Pie,"I know you gotta be a little excited though, I remember the day I proposed to Pinkie, she started planning the wedding right after I gave her the ring." Pinkie blushed slightly and giggled,

"What? I couldn't help it!" Pinkie's comment sent the whole group into laughter.

"I have had a little thought about it. I actually wanted to ask you Rarity if you would make my dress for me?" Fluttershy asked when the laughter died down. Rarity's eyes widened.

"Oh, I would love too! I already have a few ideas!" The unicorn's attention turned to Rainbow Dash next," Oh! Are you gonna wear a tux?!" Rarity exclaimed, stars in her eyes as her visions came to life in her mind.

"I was thinking so," Rainbow replied, a nervous smile on her face.

"Any ideas on the other positions for the wedding?" Applejack asked.

"We were thinking of asking Rarity, Starlight, and Pinkie to be my bridesmaids and Twilight to perform the service," Fluttershy suggested and earning approving nods from the mares.

"AJ, would you be my Maid of Honor?" Fluttershy asked.

"I-I'd be honored sugar," AJ replied, a warm smile on her face.

"And I'm sure our sisters would love to help! That is if you'd like them too. They would be wonderful flower mares!" Rarity giggled, and Fluttershy nodded, before looking at Rainbow Dash for final consent. Rainbow smiled before her thoughts turned to Scootaloo, who was currently with her friends at the dessert table

"Something wrong Dashie?" Fluttershy asked, seeing the distant, blank expression on her fiance's face.

"Huh?" Rainbow asked, snapping out of her trance, turning her gaze to her lover,"Oh! No, no. I was just thinking..." Fluttershy followed where Rainbow's eyes had been, and smiled.

"We'll talk about that later," The pegasus replied to Rainbow's silent message, and both mares smiled lovingly.


The party was dying down, and everypony was getting ready to go home,"You guys really didn't have to get us all this," Fluttershy blushed, looking at the engagement gifts the couple had received. The gifts consisted of a scrapbook of the couples favorite memories from Pinkie Pie, which the two mares still weren't sure how their friend had put it together. From Applejack, a case of Apple cider, that everypony knew Rainbow would enjoy the most. Rarity had gotten them a set of champagne glasses with 'F&D' engraved on the glass, and both Starlight and Twilight had put together a basket of perfumes, soaps, and bath salts; as well as a congratulations card with fifty bits in it.

"Aw, it was nothing!" Pinkie giggled.

"Yeah, you guys totally deserve it," Twilight says, giving Fluttershy and Rainbow each a short hug.

"I wish I coulda got you guys something," Scootaloo sighed, approaching the couple.

"Actually, you can," Fluttershy said with a smile, looking from the filly to her fiance.

"Huh? How can I?" The filly responded, a look of confusion on her face.

"We know you're an orphan and that you live in the treehouse you and your friends built, and you've always looked to Rainbow as a family, and since I'm with her now, I hope you can look to us both as your family."

"Of course I can! But, how is that my gift to you-"

"We would like you to allow us to adopt you Scootaloo." Fluttershy's words made the fillies mouth drops, as tears formed on the brim of her eyes.

"A...Are you serious?!" Once the couple nodded, the young pegasus jumped into their arms, the new family laughing and crying at the same time. The rest of the group released "Awes" and smiles as joyful tears filled the room.
