What Happens Here

'I love this.' Gilda thought. 'Laying on Spikes chest, may grow to be one of my most favorite things in the world.' she continued. She loved the warmth of it, one of Spikes arm holding her close made it feel like he was hugging her. Though she would like to have stayed, she needed to get her morning started. Begrudgingly she sat up, looking at the dragon underneath her. He was cute, even more so when asleep. Smiling to herself, she got out of bed and headed to the bathroom, not knowing she had woken a sleeping dragon. Looking for her toothbrush she came to the sudden realization. "Oh yea, that's right, I don't live here." she spoke.

Thinking back to Spike she looked into the mirror at herself. 'What does he see in me?' she asked herself. Her mind thought to the last girlfriends of Spike. Applejack, honesty being the most present trait for her thought, not too bad to look at either a southern belle even. Her country twang made her a bit exotic, even though she could be self conscious her self confidence was high. Not to mention, until Gilda came around Applejack and Spike were no stranger to rolling around in the hay. Though, the cons were still ever there the main one being her farm and by extension her family. They took priority over everything, especially after their grandmother died. Her devotion to her farm caused them to break up, not enough time for both even when Spike came around to help.

A small thing with Smolder, only a month or 2, but it still happened. Self confidence, grew to become quite beautiful over the years. Taught Spike how to fly, much to Rainbow Dashs annoyance, so they had a friendship before they dated. Really self sure of herself, a natural rebel at heart, Smolder and Gilda had that in common , also their attitude. Gilda had learned that Smolder secretly liked pretty and girly thing. Though her attitude and natural rebel streak lead to why the dragons split. Smolder was a lesbian, Spike learning this by dropping by on Smolder in quite a position with a changeling actually. He didn't really show it, but Spike was a bit hurt. Though they had stayed friends after it.

Rarity, his first crush, you had to be an idiot to not see the hearts in his eyes when he was smaller when she walked in. Gorgeous, was the first thing to mind, a common fact, she turned heads when she walked into any room. Gilda herself had looked a few times, the mare knew how to take care of herself if anything. Generous, though a drama queen and a tiny bit of an airhead at times helping people was a passion. In a bit of a contradiction though, she was selfish at times, even if she was the Element of Generosity. Gilda hated making plans with her as well, seeing as her looks took more of a priority than punctuality. Twilight purposely told Rarity an earlier time when they first left for Las Pegasus so she would show up on time. The thing that made Spike kind of back off, though he did kind of cause it, was when she tried to turn everything gold. Also, she had a massive need for validation, even though she had the confidence of a queen.

Then she though of herself, what was she compared to them? The one thing she could compare to all of them, she was confidence, a common trait for all of them. She didn't care what people thought of her, she was going to be herself no matter what others thought. She was tough, not afraid to get dirty, years of being one of the best fliers in Griffonstone did that for her. She was her own person, her independence did wonders for her and she had Rainbow Dash to thank for that. Though there was one thing the others had that she had never got. She wasn't as much of a looker, at least she was never told she was. Her guy friends called her 'one of the guys' as if she wasn't still a woman. Though she was a brash, a little rude, and a tomboy she still wanted to be called beautiful or cute. "I'm not a tough southern belle like Applejack, I'm not a hot head rebel dragoness like Smolder, and I'm not a gorgeous fashonista. I'm just me." she spoke, her voice was a bit shakey. "So what does he see in me?"

"Gilda." Spikes voice spoke behind her. It made her jump, she hadn't even heard him move. "Don't worry about that." He suddenly picked her up and walked back to the bed. "You just stay that badass sexy griffin chick that doesn't take shit from anyone." Laying down with her on his chest, just as they were that morning he continued. "You being you is what I like about you. Sometimes, being yourself is all you need to.. " He was stopped by Gildas paw closing his snout.

"Stop being all sappy, I get it." Laying her head on her chest and letting go of his snout.

Suddenly the door burst open to show an out of breath Starlight Glimmer. "Spike!" she say in a small yell. "You are never gonna believe who is downstairs!"
