This is due to all of them including changelings all gathered in Canterlot castle for the wedding of Shining Armor and Princess Cadence, the time of the day has arrived for the guard captain and the princess of love. This is surely going to be an exuberant day for all ponies and changelings of all of Equestria who have established peace with one another and are reformed after King Thorax made peace with Princess Twilight Sparkle during a meeting which resulted in them falling in love too. In the wedding hall, many ponies and changelings were all seen seating on long benches in the hall awaiting excitedly for the wedding to commence. On the steps, there we see a dragon named Spike who was seen dressed in a fine tuxedo while standing near his friend Thorax the changeling King who was seen acting as Shining's groomstallion which the guard captain is extremely grateful for due to Thorax valuing him as his best friend despite him having some rancour attitudes towards ponies in the past before he and his kind were reformed. The changeling King was also the husband to his little sister Twilight Sparkle who was seen a month pregnant with their upcoming son. However to Spike, this story is not just about having a contented and exhilarating time during the wedding but, also to confess his feelings to his crush Scootaloo who he had been eyeing ever since he gave up on Ratity who he didn't though that the relationship between him and her would proceed smoothly. "Okay Spike, remember everything that you've practiced and you'll succeed in confessing your feelings to Scootaloo." Spike told himself with confidence. "You okay Spike?" Thorax asked looking down at Spike. "Oh Uh... yeah Thorax, I'm feeling fine." Spike assured him which made him raise in eyebrow in confusion. Then, all ponies and changelings in the room stood up indicating that the wedding was about to commence and everypony got exhilarated. "Ooooh! The wedding is about to instigate!" Pinkie exclaimed with an exhilarated expression. Then, the doors to the wedding hall swung open. Spike turned to his right to see princess Cadence walking to her husband Shining Armor while in a beautiful bride dress. However, it was not Cadence that Spike was focused on, it was the beautiful filly Scootaloo who was seen dressed in a beautiful dress that made her look very pulchritudinous in all sides but, it wasn't beauty that defined his crush, it was her own personality. "Wow, Scootaloo is so beautiful." Once Cadence made it to her groom Shining Armor, Celestial began to commence the wedding with a beautiful speech between the two characters before the kiss. During this moment, Scootaloo was seen staring at her crush Spike and blushed at the sight of how handsome he looked in that suit. "Wow, Spike is so handsome." Scootaloo said quietly. "I think I might stand next to him." She told herself with courage. Then, without hesitation, Scootaloo walked up to Spike and Thorax's side which made Twilight and Rainbow Dash nonplussed. "Whoa, what is Scootaloo doing?" Twilight asked with a perplexed tone with her right hoof on her one month pregnant belly. "You'll see very soon egghead." Rainbow Dash whispered to Twilight which made her roll her eyes in annoyance from that typical and tired nickname. "Scootaloo has a crush on Spike and so does he, I overheard them saying something about confessing each others feelings during the wedding in separate locations before the entire occasion commences." She added which made Twilight smile in joy. When Scootaloo made it to Spike, both the dragon and the pegasus filly blushed at the sight of how beautiful and handsome each other looked for the significant occasion for Shining Armor and Princess Cadence. The two hesitated to speak at first sight then, Scootaloo decided to break the silence despite Celestia's speech. "H-hello S-Spike, you look very handsome in that tuxedo." Scootaloo whispered with a small blush. "T-thank you Scootaloo, you look beautiful in that wedding dress." Spike complimented back with a blush. "You look even cuter than before." He added which made Scootaloo blush even more. Before the two love birds could compliment on each other furthermore, Celestia began to conclude the speech after Shining and Cadence both said yes to accept each other as husband and wife, telling them to kiss each other in the process. "With the power invested, I now pronounce the both of you husband and wife, Prince and Princess, you may now kiss." Then, Shining Armor and Cadence both leaned their faces close to each other and kissed each other in the lips, sealing off the wedding in the process. The sight has made the audience erupt into applause, throwing their hats in the process with the parents of Shining Armor aka Twilight Velvet and Nightlight both began to cry out in joy from the wondrous and pleasant and touching sight. Five seconds later, both Shining and Cadence broke their kiss and nuzzled each other affectionately. "I love Cadence." Shining cooed. "I love you too Shiny." Cadence cooed back. As that happened, Rarity couldn't help but she'd some tears and cry from the lovely sight along with Fluttershy, the scene is just too touching to bear. To Scootaloo and Spikes' perspectives on the other hand, the lovely affection between the two ponies reminding them of how interchangeable that their love and affections towards each other were. All it requires is enough compassion and confidence in order for the two to confess each others love and feelings towards one another in with courage, kindness and love. "Alright everypony, now that that's all settled, let's all make our way to the garden area of the castle and celebrate for the newly wedded couple!" Celestia exclaimed with eagerness in her tone. The ponies and changelings all cheered loudly in happiness and excitement from hearing this. They couldn't wait to go celebrate for the new couple.

Before the dance commences, the ponies and changelings all began to have a chat with one another about how pleasant this wedding is going on currently. "Twinkles, you should avoid overeating too much of these fruits because, taking more than you need can raise our baby's risk in certain health hazards." Thorax warned her. "Oh right, thank you for reminding me Thory." Twilight said as she pushed the bowl of grapes away before nuzzling her husband Thorax. A moment of conversations have passed on and Celestia figured that now is the time to commence the primary event of the wedding so, she tapped on her microphone to get everypony's attentions on the stage. "Ponies and changelings, may I have all of your attentions please?" Celestia asked them. The ponies and changelings all ceased on what they were doing and looked up at the stage where Celestia was standing on. "Thank you all so much, we're now moving on to the primary event of this wedding, the dance between Shining Armor and Cadence!" Celestia announced which made everypony clap in a cheerful and gaiety way. Then, both Cadence and Shining Armor both walked onto the stage in a loving way before standing in the middle of it and began to dance to the soft music that Vinyl was playing on the DJ booth. During that moment, the ponies and changelings all began to admire the beautiful scene due to how cute and beautiful these two couples were together, they sure express a very strong love with one another. "Now everypony, let the wedding party commence!" Celestia announced, and everypony began to clap and cheer as loudly as they could. On a grassy area located not far from the party, Spike the dragon was seen making his way away from the wedding to get a breath of fresh air as he drinks his glass of water after the intense partying that nearly took all of his breath away. "Finally, a well deserved rest." Spike said as he drank the water. A brief second later, he pulled the cup away from his mouth before placing it on the grass. "I wonder what I should do now?" He asked himself. Then, Spike received his answers when he saw Scootaloo sitting on a bench in front of him while gazing at the beautiful night sky. As the dragon stared at the pegasus filly, his heart began to race at a rapid pace, and his cheeks were seen flushing due to her glamorous beauty while she was in that beautiful dress. Spike then thought that this was his perfect opportunity to confess his feelings to her, he just couldn't waste it! "Alright, here goes nothing." Spike told himself as he took a deep breath and exhaled it, relieving his anxiety in the process. After that, he walked towards Scootaloo. With Scootaloo, she was seen admiring the night sky while day dreaming about her and her crush Spike watching the night sky together in a romantic way. The pegasus filly has fallen in love with the handsome dragon. "Spike is so handsome and muscular." Scootaloo mumbled to herself with blushes on her cheeks. "I want to confess my feelings to him but, um just too scared to do so." She said with a disconsolate expression. "Hello Scootaloo." When Scootaloo heard the intimate voice, she looked to her left to see her crush Spike standing right next to her while looking at her with a smile on his lips. "Oh uh... hello Spike!" Scootaloo greeted in a startled way. "H-hello Scootaloo." Spike greeted back with blushes on his cheeks. Both the pegasus filly and the young dragon both stared at one another with blushes on their cheeks, the two were too anxious to talk to one another. "Spike is so handsome." Scootaloo though with blushes on her cheeks. "Scootaloo is so cute and elegant." Spike thought with blushes on his cheeks. Author's Note Another chapter finished! I hope you all enjoyed it! //-------------------------------------------------------// Dancing in the night //-------------------------------------------------------// Dancing in the night Both Spike and Scootaloo were staring at one another with blushes on their cheeks due to them having to have fallen in love in one another. Ever since they've greeted each other, they're very nonplussed to see and meet each other which lead to them being so anxious to start a conversation with one another again but, that wouldn't stop them from loving each other very much. "I cannot let my anxiety overcome me, I must take this opportunity." Spike told himself in his head. "I gotta quell my fear if I wish to confess my feelings to my lover." Scootaloo told herself in her head. However, unknown to the two lovers, there were a changeling and an alicorn princess seen peeking their heads out of a bush and staring at the couple with merriment expressions due to them knowing that they're about to dance with one another in a romantic way. "Twinkles, mind if I take a picture of this?" Thorax asked as he brought out his camera with a smile. "No, don't take a picture Thory." Twilight told her husband Thorax as she grabbed his camera. "Aww." Back with Scootaloo and Spike, the couple were now seen accumulating their courage and bravery in their minds so that they could ask each other for the romantic dance that they're about to ask each other to do. A brief second later, Spike was the first to speak. "Scoo-Scootaloo, would you like to have a romantic waltz with me?" Spike asked with his cheeks blushing. Scootaloo blushed from this request that her crush Spike has asked her for a dance, but, she stuffed the anxiety away due to this being her one and only chance that she could not miss or decline in her most crucial moment of her whole entire life! So therefore, she pushed her anxiety away before smiling at her lover. "Why yes Spike, I would love to dance with you." Scootaloo replied with a blush and a nod. Spike felt proud and contented on the inside from hearing his lover Scootaloo accepting his request for the dance, but, he calmed himself down and regained his composure if he wishes to focus on the dance and impress his filly. Behind the bush, were Thorax, Twilight, and Rainbow Dash watching the couple with merriment expressions due to them feeling very exhilarated to watch the couple have a romantic dance with one another through the beautiful night-time which is extremely appropriate for a time like this for couples to express their love to one another. "This is going to be so romantic!" Rainbow said while squealing. "I'm proud of Spike." Thorax said. "Time to enjoy the romantic display of the couples love for one another." Twilight said with a smile. Scootaloo then took Spikes right claw gently and the dragon and the pegasus fill both began to commence their dance with one another during the calm and beautiful night alone with adequate privacy and enough love against one another. Spike and Scootaloo both did a couple of simple steps first on the left and right gently as their starting point of their dancing session just as interchangeable to how Shining and Cadence commenced their dance during their wedding. During their actions, the two carefully watched their movements in order to prevent stepping on one another while staring at each other with love in their eyes. "Perhaps this will impress her." Spike thought with a smile. "This is going smoothly, but, I need to be careful if I wish to impress him." Scootaloo thought with a blush. Then, Spike took the dance to the next phase and held Scootaloo's left hoof up in the air as well as his right claw. After that, the young dragon helped the pegasus filly do a simple twirl, and she spun gracefully which caused Spike to blush at her beauty again. But, the young dragon regained his composure before pulling Scootaloo in and helped her do a simple dip which made her giggle, after that, he brought her back up to his eyes. "That was amazing Spike." Scootaloo cooed. "Thanks Scootaloo." Behind the bush, Rainbow Dash, Thorax and Twilight were all seen and squealing at how romantic the two were as a couple, they sure have an extremely strong loving bond in the past that brought them both together. "Wow, their chemistry sure is strong." Thorax commented as he took pictures with his second camera without his wife Twilight aware. "Of course Thory." Twilight said. "I can hardly wait to see what Spike has in store for Scootaloo next during their dance." Rainbow Dash said with an exhilarated expression. Spike and Scootaloo continued to do a few simple steps after the dragon helped the beauitful pegasus filly do a simple twirl and dip. Then, the young dragon came up with another trick, he placed his right claw on her chest and lifted her up in the air. When that occured, Scootaloo kept her balance by spreading her wings and hooves as her handsome dragon crush spun her around in the air which is impressing her a lot. Thorax, Twilight and Rainbow Dash couldn't help but squeal quickly more at the sight of the amazing sight of Spike lifting Scootaloo in the air and spinning her around with professionalism and love. "This is absolutely adorable and astonishing." Rainbow Dash commented with a smile. "Agreed." Ten seconds later, Spike decided to end the dance by gently lowering his love Scootaloo on the ground before helping her do a dip once more and lifting her up in the air. As that occured, Spike and Scootaloo stared at each other with love in their eyes. "Wow Spikey, I didn't know that you had that in you." Scootaloo said rubbing his right cheek which made Spike blush. "T-thanks Scoots." Both Spike and Scootaloo stared at each other with love in their eyes after their romantic dance. Then, the two went to the primary topic that has been in their head ever since the laid eyes on one another. "Scootaloo?" "Yes Spike?" Spike first took a deep breath before answering. "I-I love you!"

I hope you all enjoyed it! //-------------------------------------------------------// New clothings //-------------------------------------------------------// New clothings By the time both Spike and Scootaloo have confessed their feelings that they had for a while to one another as well as after their romantic dance. A soft blush has appeared on the two's cheeks and they were pretty much embarrassed and in love to even move their bodies. "Come on Spike." Twilight encouraged in a whispering way. When she looked up and saw her husband Thorax taking pictures again. An incredulous expression appeared on her. "I said, no cameras!" She whispered as she took his camera again. "Sorry Twinkles." Thorax chuckled. This time, he will comply with his wife Twilight's orders. "Come on Scoots." Rainbow Dash encouraged in a whispering way. Spike and Scootaloo were both silent, none of them talking or making any movements after their confessions. The young dragon was going to accumulate all of his courage and speak up to the pegasus filly but suddenly, before he could, Scootaloo did her first move and kissed Spike in the lips. "Oh my Celestia." Rainbow Dash squealed. "Now that is some good chemistry." Thorax commented with a smile. "Oh my baby brother Spike has managed to confess his feelings to little Scootaloo over there." Twilight said in a proud tone. "What's going on here?" Twilight, Rainbow Dash, and Thorax both turned around to look at the source of the voice to see Princess Cadence and her husband Shining Armor standing behind them while looking at the scenery. "Whoa, hello you two." Thorax greeted with a smile. "Have you two already finished your dance?" He asked. "Correct Thorax." Cadence replied with a nod. Then, she shifted her attention to the couple. "Were those two dancing with each other as well?" She asked. "You're correct Cadence, they were having a wonderful waltz during yours and your husband Shining Armor's dance." Rainbow Dash replied. "At this rate, we would act like we are eavesdropping on the two couple right now." Twilight giggled which made the ponies chuckle in response due to their peeping attitudes. "Why don't we go up to them right now? I've got something in store for the two couple." Cadence said. "That's a great idea Cadence!" Back with Scootaloo and Spike, the couple have already broke their kiss and were now staring at one another with compassion and love in their eyes due to them being a very strong and loving couple to have ever confessed their love to one another in the face of Equestria. "I love you Spikey." Scootaloo cooed. "I love you too Scoots." Spike cooed. The couple were going to lean their heads close to one another to kiss each other once more but suddenly, they heard a voice near them. "Hello you two love birds." When both Scootaloo and Spike heard the voice, they were stopped in their romantic session and were feeling anxious right now. The couple looked to their source of the voice to see Thorax, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Cadence, and Shining Armor standing there while looking down on them with smiles on their muzzles. This has provoked both the pegasus filly and the young dragon do break their hug and stand up straight in front of them with embarrassed blushes on their cheeks in hopes to pretend that they weren't doing anything in front of them all. Then, they began to talk naturally. "H-hello Thorax, Twilight and Rainbow Dash." Spike greeted with an embarrassed chuckle. "G-greetings Prince Shining Armor and Princess Cadence, I presume that the two of you have finished your dance?" Scootaloo asked with her cheeks flushing. "That is correct Spike and Scootaloo." Cadence replied with a nod. "I must say, that was quite the romantic waltz that you two just did with one another." Thorax commented with a smile. "And during the night as well, it was like watching a romantic stage act." He added. "Thank you so much for your comment Thorax buddy." "I'm so proud of you Scoots, you managed to find love with the dragon whom you love and care for." Rainbow Dash said with a smile. "Thank you two so much." "You're very welcome Spike." Cadence nodded with a smile. "Say, would you two love birds love me to modify and give you new clothings?" She asked. This got the couple exhilarated. "Sure, thanks a lot Cadence!" The princess of love nodded before charging her horn. Then, two auras began to surround both Spike and Scootaloo. The aura began to transform their uniforms that they were currently wearing. Scootaloo's dress began to change into a different colour, and Spikes' getting a new tuxedo. "Whoa, what is happening?" Scootaloo asked. "I don't know, but this does seem pretty cool." Ten seconds later, Cadence has finished with the process and the aura surrounding both the pegasus filly and the dragon have dissipated now, Scootaloo was seen dressing in a gorgeous yellow dress, and Spike was seen in a more perfect tuxedo. "Whoa, check you two out!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed. Author's Note Another chapter completed! I hope you all enjoyed it! This chapter was a reference to Cinderella.
