Lovestruck.

The next day.

"Rainbow Dash where's Lightning Flicker's bottle? Spring Song has hers and it looks like he's getting jealous." Seethe called from the main room in Twilight's library in Ponyvile.

"I can't find that thing that goes on top!" Rainbow Dash called back.

"The nipple?!" Seethe called back.

Rainbow Dash's response was a mix of laughter and segments of the word "WHAT?!!

"That's actually the name!" Celestia called in as she cradled Spring Song in her forehooves.

Seethe continued to gently rock Lightning Flicker in his fore hooves. Lightning Flicker gave a few slightly annoyed gurgles from hunger. Rainbow Dash came out with a filled bottle for Lightning Flicker. Seethe floated it away from her and put it up to Lightning Flicker's mouth. He started drinking quickly and soon became satisfied.

"Twilight. Would you please get me that book of nursery songs?" Celestia asked with the utmost calmness.

"Yes Princess." Twilight responded going to the small bag of random baby things. She looked in past poopy wipes, clean bottles, and a few hand written comedy pieces to be played in front of the babies. Each one by Seethe. Beneath those was the nursery song book. She extracted it quickly and sent it back to Celestia.

Celestia magically sent it over to Seethe and used her magical aura to pop it open to page forty three.

"Sing. Now." Celestia said with a sort of nonchalant style tone of voice.

"Do I have to?" Seethe asked. Every fiber of his being not wanting to sing the song on page 43. Each and every cell that made up his being screamed for him to not.

Celestia looked down at Spring Song and repeated herself. "Sing. Now."

Seethe sighed and then cleared his throat with a loud "Ahem".

He gives the book page a good quick read and then begins to sing...

"Science homework was due today

PROJECT PROJECT O!

My weird partner just went away

RANDOM VACATION O!

Our assignment was to keep an egg safe when

Dropping it off the roof of our school but don't fret cause

Our egg's gonna be scrambled

AND WE WILL BOTH FAIL!

I'll be grounded for solid weeks

MAYBE I SHOULD BAIL!

I'll just stick it my cereal bowl

And just hope for the best of the egg that's rotten

But all I got was detention

AND A BIG F---ing F!"

Seethe's singing voice was about like his comedy voice when he's had nothing to drink for hours and has to go up on stage. In other words, a bit shrill, dry, emotionless and absolutely ridiculous.

Both the babies and all the mares in the room, who ware just Twilight's friends, laughed or giggled during the song and laughed as hard as possible at the end.

Celestia was still trying to fight her own giggles when she flipped the page.

"Another one.....*giggle* Seethe." She said through a broad grin and an uproar of giggles.

Seethe saw the "Itsy bitsy Spider" and thought. Hmm.....maybe I could sing something else. What songs do I know? Oh yeah......

Seethe cleared his throat again and decided on a said song.

"He sees her face the way a moth sees flame

But she don't notice, she don't feel the same

She tries to find herself in other hooves

But all she ever finds are broken hearts"

"Wait this isn't Itsy Bitsy Spider." Celestia said confused.

Seethe kept going any way. In perfect pitch and rhythm since this was one of his favorite songs of all time.

"He circles her like a cloud

Hoping one day that she'll understand

She'll look his way, and if he gets the chance

He swears he'll never let go of her hoof

He'll never let go of her hoof"

Seethe look at Celestia with loving eyes, blocking every pony out. To Celestia, the room and eveyrpony disappeared, faded into some different paused invisible world, leaving just Seethe. herself, and Seethe's now beautiful singing voice.

"He confesses and she starts to pack

Neither knows if she'll be coming back

He asks her to stay, but she shakes her head

And soon she's crying in a borrowed bed"

Seethe got a bit closer to Celestia. Putting all his passion and love into his song.

"He screwed up but she's his world

It wasn't like he had this planned

It meant nothing but cost everything

If he had it back, he'd have never let go of her hoof

He'd never let go of her hoof"

"Love can be terrifying

Love can be what the poets have said

Love can be undying

Love can hang by a thread"

Celestia's mouth could've been open wide in awe. She was amazed.

"Lilies in a vase by the wall

How long they've been there, he can't recall

He sees no light no stars no sun up high

Hasn't felt alive since he said goodbye"

"Things got bad and then got worse

Everything they were dissolved to sand

He knew she could no longer feel his touch

But he never let go of her hoof

He never let go of her hoof"

"No, he never let go of her hoof"

Seethe stopped singing at the end. Celestia had at one point given over Spring Song to Fluttershy and Seethe had given up Lighting Flicker to Rarity. They were still in their own world, mesmerized by the song, each gazing into the other's eyes. Their heads seemed to be pulled by gravity. Closer and closer. They locked lips and closed eyes. Sharing the most passionate kiss either ever felt. Lips locked, fore hooves wrapped around one another, and their love illuminating the room.

They separated lips and just gazed into each other's eyes in silence.

Fluttershy was first to break the silence in the room. As she whipped tears from her eyes she sobbed out "That was beautiful."

Celestia knew right then and there; Seethe loved her more than he loved himself.
