There's nothing dragon-y about you, Spike
You are perfect just the way you are, Spike
Twilight Sparkle was in her library, reading a book as she had nothing else to do. It was raining heavily outside and it made her get interrupted from her reading because of it. She lit up a candle as the electricity had gone off because of the rain. From a spell she had learnt from her mentor, she casted a spell to prevent her from getting distracted by the rain.
As her eyes skimmed through the page, a purple baby dragon with green scales entered inside the room from his nap. He approached the purple unicorn. She turned around to face him with a smile but noticed that he wasn't wearing a smile on his own face. She raised an eyebrow in concern.
''What is wrong, Spike?'' she asked as she placed an assuring hoof on his shoulder.
''Twilight,'' said Spike, ''do you think I am enough?''
She raised an eyebrow. ''What do you mean?''
''I mean, no matter what I do to get Rarity to like me, she always ends up pushing me down with chores to do or either make me jealous by talking about other stallions. Is it because I am just a dumb baby dragon? Is it because I am too young?''
Spike started sobbing into the purple unicorn's hooves. Twilight looked at him sympathetically and slowly caressed him on the back for comfort. Twilight's ears twitched as she could hear thunder so she ignited her horn to shut all the windows of the tree. She lifted up the dragon's chin and smiled upon him.
''You are not dumb, Spike. You are just too young to worry about this. Besides, the age difference between you two is really big. But don't worry because I know that you will find the perfect mare to love. I am sure Rarity didn't mean to make you feel that way, Spike, and I am sorry.''
''What if there isn't another mare I would like?'' Spike muttered. ''What if Rarity is the only one I like?''
Twilight chuckled at his phrasing.
''What is so funny?'' he asked as he raised an eyebrow in confusion.
Twilight lifted his chin. ''You mean you don't remember? When you were younger, you had a crush on Cadence.''
''What?'' said Spike. ''Really?!''
Twilight nodded and playfully nudged him in the side. Spike rubbed his arm nervously and blushed slightly.
''Why?'' he asked.
Twilight shrugged. ''Maybe you had thought she was pretty. I also found her pretty too and she is. She was the best foalsitter in the history of foalsitters!''
Twilight's excitement faded away as she noticed a frown appearing on the dragon's face again. She had to do something to cheer him up. She hated seeing him so sulky. She was suddenly interrupted from her thoughts when Spike surprised her with a hug. Twilight's eyes widened. This wasn't just any hug but a hug he would never give. Twilight smiled sympathetically and brushed his scales as she let him cry into her purple fur.
''There, there, let it all out, Spike. It is okay. Don't worry. You will find her one day.''
''I am so glad to have you in my life!'' he mumbled. ''Without you, I wouldn't even been born and thus I should be grateful for everything I have and that is, I have you. I love you, Twilight! I always will! Thank you, thank you, thank you!''
Twilight chuckled and smiled softly. ''I love you too, Spike. You will always be my brother and our bond is stronger than anything in Equestria. More stronger than the magic of friendship and nothing can break us apart.''
''Not even Owlowiscious?''
Twilight playfully nudged him and tickled his tummy. ''Not even Owlowiscious.''
''Who,'' the owl hooted.
Twilight and Spike laughed and brought the owl into the warm embrace. Spike knew that whatever he is going through, his sister would always be there for him and that meant the same for Twilight. Their bond is more stronger than anything and nothing can get in the way of their friendship.
In the next morning, the thunderstorm had stopped during the night and to make this day even more perfect, Rainbow Dash had thought about doing her significant sonic rainboom and have a rainbow appear in the sky.
Twilight and Spike had trotted to Sugar Cube Corner to meet up with their friends: Rarity, Fluttershy, Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash. Twilight had thought it had became a long time since they all had spent the day together due to her studies of being Princess Celestia's faithful student.
''What do you all say about seeing the wonderbolts perform today?'' Rainbow Dash suggested.
''Yeah!'' Pinkie Pie piped. ''I would love to and because I know how much you love them!''
Rarity chuckled. ''Not just that but I am wondering you want to go because you want to see a specific stallion?''
Rainbow Dash blushed. ''Who?''
''Oh, don't give me that rubbish. We all know you like Soarin from the wonderbolts.''
''Or either he has a crush on you for saving his flank multiple times,'' said Applejack.
Rainbow Dash groaned. ''Is that why Soarin has been so nice to me?''
Spike chuckled a bit but reformed his expression into a frown again. Twilight saw this as she was standing next to him. She nudged him along as the others went out the door. Spike still didn't give a smile.
''Spike, what is wrong?'' asked Twilight in concern. ''Are you still thinking about Rarity?''
Spike sighed. ''Yes, it is just that I still feel like I am worthless but I have got you so I don't know what I am so worried about. I am sorry, Twilight, for getting you into this.''
Twilight smiled warmly. ''Spike, there is nothing wrong into sharing your feelings with somepony close to you. I am always here to hear your ups and downs. So what do you say? Do you want to hangout with the others after so long of being cooped up in our library?''
Spike thought about it and nodded with a smile. Twilight smiled back at his innocence and watched him run out the door. Twilight chuckled to herself as she also trotted after him out the door.
Spike thought to himself, 'She is right. I have got her and that should be the only thing I should be grateful about.' He saw Rarity talking to a stallion. He sighed but Twilight laid an assuring hoof on his shoulder and smiled at him. He returned it and trotted after the others. 'Everything is going to be okay.'
