Previous Chapter

-Over a year ago-
Spike was smiling nervously, as his claws fumbled over the bouquet. Red Roses as the young Dragon had saved up for this moment. He would finally ask Rarity out. Oh, how excited he was. He had enough money thanks to helping out at Sweet Apple Achers, and sweeping the floors of the Spa. But he had enough money. He would finally ask Rarity out.

"Oh, boy, this is going to be the best day ever!" He thought a skip in his step as he walked down. Such a Bright eye child. He looked onwards towards Rarity's Shop. His suit felt snug. His tie being adjusted. If Spike wasn't a Dragon, he imagined he would sweat like a pig in heat. Instead of a pig happy in the mud.

"Hey, Spike, what are you up too!" Rainbow Dash called up towards Spike as she flew up in the air,

"I'm visiting Rarity, and I've finally decided to tell her how I feel." The smile plastered over him as Spike was feeling proud. Rainbow Dash, on the other hand, looked shocked, though it lasted for a millisecond.

"Oh, that's... Great Spike. Though um, why not ask Sweetie Belle. I mean, she's close to your age," she looked around more though Spike laughed.

"Oh come on you know me and Sweetie Belle are just friends Nothing more nothing less," Spike said as he walked off, Rainbow dash looked over the full eye and sighed some,

"Well, you could try. I mean, you might find you have more in common than with Rarity." But Spike walked off; Rainbow dash just looked towards the young Dragon.

"Don't get hurt kid," She looked over and saw Sweetie Belle, who wasn't far off behind Spike at first, stood there. A basket of Gem's in her hand a Dress that looked cute. And a crushed expression on her face as she ran off Dropping the basket. Rainbow Dash gave a long sigh as she followed the young unicorn, to console her on the massive heartbreak.

Spike walked onwards into the Shop, seeing Rarity there, working on a dress. Her magic is working wonders as she made sure it was form-fitting, White with a long veil. A wedding dress, to be exact. As Spike, the Dragon moved in calling out,

"Rarity!" He jotted over, admiring the work she was doing.

"Oh, Spike, it's good to see you. Oh, what are those?" She asked, looking towards the vast array of flowers. Her favorite, after all. Red Roses with the thorns cut them off.

"A special occasion, Rarity. Um, I wanted to ask you something..." Spike felt nervous alike his stomach had turned to lead as it sank in more in-depth. He wasn't sure what would happen next, but he sure was going to ask her.

"What would that be Spike," the white mare said with a long smile while she looked at him generously.

"Would you go on a date with me!" He Practically shouted out. Though he reached over covering his mouth. When he realized that he was a little too loud, Rarity looked at him, almost shocked for a second, while using her hoof to push her bottom jaw up. After all, a lady never catches fly's in her mouth.

"Oh... Spike... I'd love to go on a date, but-" Before she could finish, Spike jumped in the air, a child's nature as he was overwhelmed with happiness and excitement. He barely let her finish anything.

"That's great! I'll see you tonight, and I've got the perfect place to have dinner, it's that Prance Restaurant run by that Griffin. I'll meet you later. I've got to get ready." So the young Dragon moved on, running out the door and leaving Rarity sitting there. Realizing Spike had Dropped the roses, she picked them up with her magic.

Rarity felt a pang in guilt. She wished Spike had let her finished.

"I have got to talk to Twilight..." Rarity mumbled as she looked towards the Wedding Dress. It was something she'd have to work on later. Right now, She needed to let her Marefriend know what was happening. Otherwise, their little Secret would get out—something neither of them wanted out for the moment.

After all, what was the worst that could happen?


"You said what!" Twilight said as she was in her library, putting away ancient texts. While looking to Rarity,

"It was an accident. I was going to let him down gently, but before I could get to It, Spike got overly excited." Rarity said, looking guilty. While barely looking at her Marefriend in the eyes. Such a passion for them.

"It's fine, It's fine- Spikes a big Dragon, we'll just sit him down tonight and just let him know what's going on, He'll understand- I'm sure of it. Besides, we're all adults." Twilight gave a nervous laugh, imagining how much of a shit show this might end up. Her breathing was getting heavy. Her iris was shrinking as she took deeper breaths.

"Twilight! Twilight, baby, please relax. It'll all be okay." Rarity moved in, slowly giving her a soft kiss. Twilight seemed to relax as she looked over towards the white mare,

"Okay, I'm Fine... I'm Fine," Twilight lied as she was having more of a freak out session in her head. She was leaning in, kissing her Marefriend in return.

It started as one kiss... Than two.

Then there was the third one, and so forth.

Before they realized it, the two mares were up in Twilight's room. They were making love throughout the day and sharing each other, loving every second like the stars on a night. That only they could see.


Spike was walking home, Confused, Rarity hadn't been home. The only one there was a crying Sweetie Belle who refused to talk to the Dragon, let alone even looks at him. his heart Panging hoping the mare was okay.

M-maybe, she got a last-minute call and had to leave town. Yeah, that's it- She didn't ditch me at all.

Spike held back a trembling voice, his eyes burning fighting off tears. While walking inside. The castle was so large, sure it was filled with people he cared about- but at times it just felt lonely. Nothing about it felt like home—only a pure state of Hollowness.

Well, we can always talk to Twilight, she's normally in bed, and she makes everything better. Spike imagined as he moved on, heading to Twilight's bedroom. Though it was a long walk, He felt calmer, and Twilight normally made things better. She was his sister- his only family in this world. But as he got closer, he heard a creaking sound, which turned to the thumb and even moaning.

Maybe she got into the brownies again? Spike imagined remembering the last time it happened. But still, maybe some chocolate would help. He grabbed the door pulling it in...

What he saw next was something he would never forget. He looked seeing Rarity, laying on the bed her hooves wrapped around Twilight's head as her face was muffled between her legs as they were having sex. Spike felt his heart shatter into a million pieces. That was when Rarity looked overseeing Spike as she called out.

"Oh, Shit, Twilight Darling stop... STOP!" Twilight raised her head, looking overseeing Spike. The Expression on her face had grown extra wide as she pulled away. She was bringing the blanket over with their magic Covering the lesbian couple.

"Spike! We can explain!" Twilight called out. But before She could, Spike slammed the door, using all his strength. Nearly breaking the door, as he ran down the hallway. Some said you could still hear his crying while he ran away from the castle, not taking a single item with him. Simply running away.

"Oh dear, I hope he doesn't stay mad; I mean when he comes back We'll explain everything, Darling," Rarity said looked towards her love.

"Yeah, I hope so, I mean how long he could stay mad at me for..." Twilight said, getting out of bed. She needed a drink, something substantial. for both her and Rarity.


Rarity looked towards the night sky, Staring at the moon. the sight of the Mare plastered on her made the young mother heart weep with sadness.

"Mommy! Mommy! Whats wrong why are you crying?!" A small colt said as he moved over nuzzling her. While Rarity just cried a small tear.

"Nothing Dusk Shine, Mommy was just thinking of your mommy, and how she missed her." She kissed her child on the head,

"Will you tell me what happened to other Mommy and why I don't get to see her?"

"Maybe when your older, but for now, let's head to bed, I'm very tired." Rarity let out a sniff as she walked off with her son, heading back inside.
