December 24, 2017, Canterlot Sweet Shoppe 2:40 PM

Christmas Eve is finally upon Canterlot, school is out, snow has fallen, and families get together. Currently, the Sweet Shoppe is closing soon and Blazing Waters is helping the Cakes with their holiday special, he was manning the front desk, while one of his best friends, Pinkie Pie, was in the kitchen.

While he was sweeping through his MyStable on his phone, he heard someone tap the bell on the desk, he turned around to see 2 familiar girls, Sunset Shimmer and Applejack.

“Hey girls.” Blazing said

“Hey Blazing.” Sunset said

“Howdy there Blazing.” Applejack

“What can I get for you two, you're our last customers before we close.” he asked

“We’ll have the usual.” Sunset asked.

“Alright, me and Pinkie will sit down with you since we’re about to close.” he said

“Okay, you know where we usually sit.” Applejack said with a chuckle as they paid and went and sat down

Blazing walked into the kitchen “Hey Pinkie, AJ and Sunset are here, they want what they usually have.”

“Okie Dokie Lokie.” she said in a slight giddy tone as she got two cups from the cabinet.

“Hey and also, could you get me a milkshake as well, I’ll pay of course.” he asked

“Sure, what do you want?” she asked

“Oreo with a mix of hot coco please.” he asked politely

“Okie Dokie.” she said with a smile

Blazing slipped off his work jacket, grabbed his normal jacket and slipped it on. He walked out of the kitchen, paid for his milkshake, and slid over the counter and walked over to the table Applejack and Sunset were sitting at.

“Got any room for another?” he asked as he hopped up on the armrest of the chair.

“So whats the plan AJ?” Blazing asked

“Well, first we’re gonna get the inside decorations ready, then we make the dinner and finally, we’ll open each others gifts, hopefully we’ll get it all ready before 5:30.” Applejack explained.

“Okay, me and Rainbow Dash will get there sometime around 6:30, since I promised to help her with her sports shop.” he responded. “Is it okay if I can bring my dog Meg over, so Winona has someone to play with.” he asked.

“Sure, it wouldn’t hurt to bring her along.” she responded

“Who’s thirsty for some milkshakes!?” Pinkie Pie said in excitement as she walked over to the table with their milkshakes, she had also made one for herself.

“Thanks Pinkie.” Sunset said. They all grabbed their drinks and started chatting for a little longer.

“You’re treating Rainbow Dash like a princess right?” Sunset asked Blazing.

“Of course I am, if I wasn’t, I wouldn’t be sitting here, chatting with you gals, and I wouldn’t have gotten her this.” he said as he reached into his bag and brought out a small box.

He opened it, revealing a beautiful necklace with a cloud and rainbow lightning bolt and a pair of earrings, both with the rainbow lightning bolt.

“I saved up enough money to have a custom made necklace and pair of earrings, it was supposed to be a 3 month anniversary gift but it wasn’t finished when our anniversary came so I decided to make it a Christmas gift.” Blazing explained with a smile

The girls examined the jewels in awe for a few moments, until Sunset spoke up, “She is definitely gonna like this.”

Blazing closed the box and put it back in his bag “I know shes gonna love it.”

Just as he put the box back in his bag, his phone buzzed. He pulled it out and saw that Rainbow Dash had texted him.

Love of my life

“Merry Christmas babe, whats up?”

Blazing started to text her back while the girls were chatting with each other.

You

“Hey sweetheart, Merry Christmas, I’m over here at Sugar Cube Corner with Sunset, Applejack, and Pinkie, what are you up to?”

”Nothing much, just cleaning up the store, thats all, ur coming right?”

”Of course, as a matter of fact, I’m getting ready to go right now.”

”Okay, see u soon, love ya”

”Love you too.”

Blazing put his phone away and finished the rest of his milkshake.

“Alright, I’m heading over to the mall to help Rainbow Dash at the sports shop.”

“Okay, see ya at the Christmas party.” Applejack said

“See you all then.” he said

“Group Hug!!!” Pinkie says

They all gather in a group hug before releasing. Blazing picks up his bag, slips his gloves, coat, and scarf on before waving goodbye to the girls and making his way out the door to his car.

The drive was about 10 minutes until he made a right turn and the mall came into view. He pulled up in front it, got out, and locked it. He walked up to the door and opened it and entered the mall, he made his way up the escalator until the sports shop came in view, he entered it and saw his loving girlfriend, Rainbow Dash, in her usual sports shop uniform. Rainbow Dash looked over to the front door and was met with his red strawberry eyes.

“Babe!” she said in excitement as she ran up to him, jumped up on him and wrapped her arms and legs around him in a big hug.

“Whoa, hey sweetheart.” Blazing said as he wrapped his arms around her and hugged her back.

She gives him a peck on the lips before letting go of him and getting back on her feet.

“Merry Christmas, babe.” she said with a smile

“Merry Christmas, hon.” he replied

“We’re about to close, I wanted you to help me finish wrapping things up before we close.” she explained to him with a smile

“Okay.” he replies as he walks with her through the store.

“I can’t wait to go to Applejack’s house, we’re gonna have so much fun there.” he says.

“I know, its gonna be so awesome.” she says with a slight squeal.

“You know I think its cute when you do that right?” he says before wrapping his arm around her shoulder.

“I know.” she replies

They both continued organizing every thing else before they were able to close the shop up.

“Oh I almost forgot something, wait here.” she says.

Then in the blink of an eye, she zooms down to the back of the store leaving a rainbow trail

“Of course, that geode.” he says to himself has leans against the and begins to scroll through his MyStable.

Blazing waits for her patiently, while he waits, he starts thinking about all the things they’ve experienced together, going out to eat together, practicing soccer on the field at school, playing music, playing games, and cuddling. He smiled to himself at how much fun they’ve been through together.

Without warning, Rainbow Dash came back in the blink of an eye, holding a box with a ribbon tied around it.

“This is for you babe.” she says as she holds it out to him with a big smile on her face.

“Really?” Blazing asked as he takes the box and starts opening it.

“Merry Christmas sweetheart.” she says.

Inside the box was a blue and yellow soccer ball, when he took it out of the box and examined it, he noticed a heart with the letters “BW” and “RD” within the heart.

“Thank you so much.” he says as he wraps his lover in a loving embrace.

She returns the hug and wraps her arms around him and kisses his cheek.

After what felt like forever, they finally released their embrace and Blazing put the ball in his bag and they both started walking to the exit of the mall, together, hand in hand with their fingers interlacing.

“Hey Dashie?” Blazing said

“Yeah?” Rainbow said

“Could I ask you something?”

“Sure, whats up?”

They stepped off the escalator and started making their way to the entrance before continuing their conversation.

“You wouldn’t mind...um...staying over at my house until New Years, would you?” he asked hesitantly

She looked up at him for a second, before a big smile appeared on her face and she hugged him tightly and responded “Oh I would love to stay over.”

“Great, I look forward to having you over.” he said

“But first I need you to drive me home so I can let my parents know I’m gonna be staying at your house and so I can change clothes and get some things for the stay, is that okay with you?” she asked

“Alright, I’ll take you there.” he replied

They both walked out of the mall together to his car before getting in and driving to Rainbows house.

“You wanna come inside?” Rainbow Dash asked as they pulled up to her house.

“Um..sure.” Blazing responded, he didn’t feel very comfortable with meeting her parents. He has met them in the past but he still doesn't feel comfortable around them.

They both got out of his car and made their way to the front door, she opened the door and went inside and Blazing followed suite.

“MOM, DAD, I’M HOME, I NEED TO TALK TO YOU GUYS.” she shouted to them

“Alright sweetheart, we’ll be there in a second.” Windy Whistles, Rainbow Dashes mother, responded from upstairs.

They both sat in the dining room, right next to one another while they waited for her parents.

“I love you.” Rainbow Dash said to Blazing with a smile.

“I love you too.” he replied back with a peck on her lips.

Just then, Rainbow Dash’s parents walked in to the dining room.

“Hey Mom, hey Dad.” she said getting out of her chair and giving them a hug

“Hi sweetie, so what did you want to talk to us about.”

“Well, I was gonna let you guys know that I’m gonna be spending the rest of the year at Blazing’s house, I’ll be coming home on January 2nd.”

“Okay then, go get yourself ready for the stay, we want to talk to Blazing.”

“Okay, see you in a few.” she said as she ran upstairs to her room.

“So what did you guys want to talk to me about?”

“We wanted to thank you on being with our daughter and taking care of her with your life.” Bow Hothoof, Rainbow Dash’s father, said.

“Ever since she met you, she has never been more happy in her entire life, she talks about you non stop, it really makes us happy that you’re making her happy and that she loves you and that you love her.”

“You're very welcome, I'm doing the best I can." he said as he blushed and rubbed the back of his neck.

“Take very good care of our daughter when she stays at your place, show her a good time.” said Windy

“Yes ma’am.” Blazing said

After Blazing answered Windy, Rainbow Dash started making her way downstairs with her bags ready.

“You ready to go sweetie?” Windy said.

“Yep, all packed up and ready to go.” she hugged them all goodbye, “I’ll see you guys at Applejack’s place.”

“You too sweetheart.” Windy replied. Rainbow Dash then made her way over to Blazing and walked out of the house over to his car.

They both waved goodbye as Blazing and Rainbow Dash waved goodbye back.

Blazing pulled up into his driveway before stepping out of the car, along with Rainbow Dash.

“I’m so excited for this week, its gonna be so awesome.” said Rainbow Dash

“I know, especially the christmas party at AJ’s house.” Blazing said

They both walked up to the front door and entered the house, the moment they entered, Blazing’s dog Meg jumped up from the couch and ran towards the couple.

“Hi Meggie!” Blazing said as he lied down on the floor to play with her.

Meg then turned and ran towards Rainbow Dash.

“Hey Meg.” she said as she started petting her.

Rainbow Dash put her bags down and slipped out of her socks and boots, they both hung out for a while until it was time to go to Applejack’s house.

“AJ wait up!” Blazing called out towards Applejack as she was about to close the door.

“Get in quick!” she yelled to them as she held the door open for them.

Blazing was carrying Meg in her kennel and Rainbow Dash was already in the house thanks to her geode. He finally got into the house and set Meg down.

“Wow, its snowing pretty fiercely outside.” Blazing said while panting heavily as he took his coat, gloves, and scarf off while Rainbow Dash followed suite.

“Good thing we made it in time.” Rainbow said.

“Everybody else is here.” Applejack said to the couple.

“So can I let Meg out now?” Blazing asked to Applejack

“Sure, go ahead.” Applejack responded

He opened Megs kennel, brought her out and started walking into the living room with her in his arms and Applejack and Rainbow Dash right behind him. He then noticed the rest of the girls, their siblings and their parents, including Rainbow Dash’s parents, even Spike, sitting in the living room talking to each other. They noticed the three and turn to look at them

“Hey guys.” Blazing said to them all. They all greeted the two.

“Oh is that your dog?” Twilight asked while pointing at Meg

“Yes indeed, it is.” Blazing replied as he sat down on one of the couches along with Rainbow Dash sitting next to him.

He slowly and carefully puts Meg down and she starts going up to everyone.

Soon Winona came in and they both started playing with each other.

“They seem to be getting along really well.” Blazing said

Everyone was in the living room, opening gifts, they had just finished up eating the christmas dinner.

“Hey hon?” Blazing said to Rainbow Dash

“Yeah, babe?” she replied

“This one is for you, its from me.” he said to her as he handed her a small box wrapped up in wrapping paper.

“Oh, thanks.” she said as she sat down next to him and started opening the gift, she finally unwrapped it, revealing a small jewelry box. Her eyes went a little wide when she saw the box and then opened. When she saw what was inside it, she gasped.

“B-Blazing...is this for me?” she asked as she looked at him with some tears of joy in her eyes.

He just nodded his head. She looked back the necklace and earrings.

”You wanna put them on?” he asked “Yeah, I do.” she replied

She took the box and went into the bathroom to put them on while Blazing waited outside for her. She then opened the door and stepped out.

“What do ya think?” she asked while posing for him.

Blazing blushed at how she looked. “Aw, am I to awesome for you.” she asked

“You look absolutely beautiful.” he replied

She giggled a little as he walked up to him and gave him a peck on the lips. “I love you” said Rainbow “I love you too.” Blazing replied.

“Merry Christmas sweetheart.” Blazing said

“Merry Christmas babe.” Rainbow replied

They both walked back into the living room and continued hanging out with everyone else.

"My goodness Rainbow Dash, you look so marvelous with that necklace and those earrings." Rarity said to Rainbow Dash

"Thanks Rarity." Rainbow responded

Soon when the couple sat back down on the couch, everyone started giggling. “Whats so funny?” Rainbow asked.

“Look up.” Sunset said to the both of them as she then started laughing.

When they did, they noticed Pinkie Pie hanging a mistletoe above them. They both blushed.

“Well, are you gonna kiss or what?” Pinkie said

They both looked into each others eyes and slowly connected their lips in a loving kiss.

Man was this party amazing.

Everyone was having a great time hanging out for a couple more hours, talking about what they have done over the year, Spike, Winona, and Meg were playing with each other, as the CMC were having fun with the dog, especially Blazing’s dog, all were having a good time, soon one by one they all left.

Soon Blazing Waters and Rainbow Dash were getting ready to go.

“Thanks for inviting us Applejack, we had a great time.” Blazing said as he sealed Meg in her kennel and got his coat gloves and scarf on as Rainbow Dash was doing the same.

“I’m glad you had fun, I hope to see ya’ll soon.” Applejack said as she gave him a hug and then moved to Rainbow Dash.

“We’ll see you guys later.” Rainbow said to everyone.

The two gave each and everyone a hug goodbye before walking to the front door.

Blazing picked up Meg’s kennel and everyone said bye to them as they all walked out the door to Blazing’s car.

“Hey, the snow has slowed down.” Blazing said

“Yeah, maybe tomorrow morning, we can play in the snow together?” Rainbow asked

“Sure, it wouldn’t hurt to play around in the snow.” he responded

The two entered Blazing’s house and they put all their gifts they received in the living room, Blazing set Meg down and let her out of her kennel.

“That was so much fun!” Rainbow said

“No kidding, Merry Christmas hon, I love you.” Blazing said

“Heh, I love you too.” she replied “Hey, could I change into my pajamas?” she asked as she started taking her boots off.

“Sure, go ahead, I was gonna go change as well.” he replied as he too started taking his boots off.

They both had switched into their pajamas and started playing games, playing with Meg, and cuddling. They we’re having a lot of fun ever since they got home. Right now they were playing the board game Clue.

“Hmmm, I accuse....Scarlet with the Rope in the Kitchen.” Rainbow said

Blazing grabbed the murderer envelope and opened it.

“You are correct, you win Dashie!” Blazing said

“YES!” she exclaimed

“You up for another game?”

“..*yawn*....I am a little tired but sure.”

Blazing grabs each deck of cards and shuffles the first 2, when he started shuffling the 3rd deck though, he started hearing....snoring? He turned and looked at Rainbow and realized that she was fast asleep.

“Well, she is the worlds greatest napper ever, thanks to her dad.” Blazing said with a chuckle

He got up and walked up the stairs and opened the door to his room, he then took the blankets off of the bed before exiting his room and walking down the stairs to his sleeping beauty.

“It is getting kinda late, I’ll put her in my bed then I’ll put all her gifts under the tree and then I’ll call it a night.” Blazing said to himself.

He carefully slips his arms around her and slowly picks her up, bridal style, and started walking up the stairs to his room, all while Rainbow was snoring cutely. Once he finally got to his room, he carefully placed her in his bed, laying her head on the pillow. When she was completely on the bed, he carefully brought the blanket over her, he then gently kissed her on the forehead before making his way back down the stairs to the living room.

He started putting the board game and it’s cards back in the box, put it back in the garage, walked into the closet in the living room, took all the gifts out and started putting all the gifts under the tree. He walked back a bit and examined the tree.

“She is gonna love this.” he said to himself

He started walking up the stairs and walked into his room. Rainbow Dash was still sleeping, snoring like the adorable athlete she is, Blazing was thinking about cuddling with her. “She just looks so relaxed and peaceful, maybe I shouldn’t disturb her, maybe I could make her breakfast tomorrow.” he thought to himself.

He grabbed a blanket from the closet in his room, kissed Rainbow on the cheek, causing her to giggle a little in her sleep. “Merry Christmas Dashie.” He walked back down to the living room and lied down on the couch with the blanket over him.

“Merry Christmas everyone.” is all he said before he allowed sleep to take over him as he drifted off into the dream world.
