The Date

Ponyville Post Office

Having moved to Ponyville from Canterlot, Anon the Unicorn found the place to have a friendlier atmosphere rather than Canterlot. Of course, he did have some friends in Canterlot that weren't bad, but he often found himself surrounded by stuck-up ponies and he was not too fond of it. So he decided that a change of scenery was in order and he moved to Ponyville.

So far he was enjoying it. Many of the locals were nice and even threw him a welcome party, courtesy of a certain pink hyperactive pony named Pinkie Pie. So Anon already had some friends, including Twilight Sparkle, the young dragon Spike, the two pegasi Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy, the fashion designer Rarity, the hard-working Applejack, and Pinkie Pie, the one who threw him a party.

But they were not the only ones who he became friends with as he also befriended Applejack's older brother Big Mac, Caramel, and many others as well. But there was a certain pegasus who he felt was a bit closer to him..her name is Derpy Hooves.

At first, he didn't think much of Derpy, sure she was a bit clumsy, but still very nice, and was even nice enough to get him a job helping her at the post office, where he would basically stamp the packages and sign. Over the months he has been here though, something in him changed…every time he saw her he would get butterflies in his stomach and he would blush a bit at seeing her.

Of course Anon was not a dense pony, he knew what love and a relationship is but he was wondering why he felt that way about her. Of course, she was really nice and all…but he didn't think a relationship could work out for him at all.

Flashback/Carousel Boutique

“I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!!” Anon shouted as he plopped his head on the table, staring at Rarity. He had gone to Rarity to explain his predicament to her.

Rarity put her tea down and used her horn to lift his head up. “Anon, darling.” She said to him. “I think if you really do like Derpy, then you should go for it.” she said with a smile. “I don't understand what’s holding you back.”

Anon looked at her and sighed. “I guess…I’m just worried that I might mess up at all. I don't really have good experiences with relationships…especially in Canterlot but that's another story I don't wish to bring up.” He said.

Rarity smiled at him. “Well, that was then and this is now, darling.” She said, “Don’t let a few bad experiences stop you from what your heart tells you.” She said with a smile, making Anon face her and ponder.

Present/Ponyville Post Office

“Alright Derps, everything seems to be in order.” Anon said with a smile as he used his horn to levitate some envelopes over to Derpy.

The mare smiled at him. “Thanks, Anon.” She said with a smile as she then put the mail in her saddle bag and was about to take off. Anon thought bac ti what Rarity said and had made his decision...it was either now or never. Would she agree to a date? Or would she refuse? It made him nervous, but he was not going to let his nervousness stop him!

“Hey, Derpy?” He asked, getting her attention. “Um…well…I kinda wanted to ask you a question.”

Derpy smile. “What is it?”

“Well…uh…” Anon said, trying to relay hard to get the right words out. “You see…I was wondering…are you busy tonight?” He asked her, with her shaking her head no, inwardly he sighed in dread. “Well..this might seem so sudden, but I was wondering…do you maybe..want to I don't know...go on a date” He asked nervously.

Now it was Derpy's turn to look at him with a faint blush. “You...want to take me on a date?" She asked, hoping that she had heard him right.

Now he was the one blushing a bit. “Yea...so what do you say?” He asked a bit nervously, and then Derpy got closer to him, with the biggest smile on her face.

“I would love nothing more.” she said. “Maybe after we get off work?”

Anon was shocked…he finally did it, he finally asked them if he developed feelings for going out on a date! This was almost too good to be true! “Sure.” He said with a smile.

Derpy giggled and began to walk off. “Ok then, after work, which shouldn't be too long, all I need to do is drop off this mail, and it will be closing time.”

Anon got out of his lovesick phase to see the clock and to his surprise, it really was almost closing time. “Jeez, where does the time go?” He thought. He then turned to Derpy. “So…what would you like to do?” He asked.

Derpy shrugged her shoulders. “I don’t know.”

“Me neither.” that led to an awkward silence…a silence that turned into laughter. “I’ll think of something.” He said.

“Ok, after I drop off the mail I’m going to go home and try to find a sitter for Dinky, are you alright locking up?” Depy asked

“No problemo.” He gave a salute with his hoof, making Derpy giggle.

“See you later, Anon.” She happily said.

“Same here.” He said as Derpy headed for the door, but then.

BOOM

She went head-first into the door. “Ow…” she said as Anon winced. Of course, this was not the first time she did that, But it still seems to hurt like heck.

After she left. Anon then took a few minutes to ponder what had just transpired. He finally did it..he finally asked out the one mare he began to grow feelings for! He was happy…

“OH YEA, BABY!!” He shouted with a big grin as he jumped in the air and did a little dance. “Go Anon, go Anon, go Anon. Yea!”

Derpy’s House

Derpy was lying on her couch in thought. She couldn't believe her ears when she was naked out by Anon. Now Derpy was a beautiful mare, there is no doubt about that, but the thing is…she had never really been asked out on a date in a long time..and she was feeling a bit nervous.

“What do I do?” Depy thought. “What do I wear? What should I say? Oh, what if my clumsiness gets too much of him and he leaves me right then and there…” She was panicking a bit..what if the date turns horrible?

But even with these thoughts of doubt in her mind, she was still excited to go on a date with him, and she began to wonder what kind of things they would do. A nice dinner? Maybe some dancing? A trip to the moon?

Derpy giggled and shook her head. A trip to the moon was a bit far-fetched…but she still couldn't wait.

“Mama!” Derpy turned around to see her daughter, Dinky Hooves trot up to her with a big smile. “Hey, mama.” She said happily. “Are you getting ready for your date with Mr. Anon?”

Derpy nodded. “Yea, I am so excited, but at the same time, I am a bit nervous.” She said as she then looked down a bit. “You know about my clumsiness…I’m just afraid that I might mess it up for Anon…maybe he won't want to see me ever again.”

Dinky looked at her mother with concern. Her clumsiness was always a bit sore for her, but she then smiled. “I don't think it will come to that.” she said, getting the older man's attention.

“What?”

“I said, I don't think it will come to that.” Dinky said to her.

Derpy frowned a bit. “How do you know? You know every stallion who I ever liked can’t stand me due to me crashing into things.” She said as she looked down.

Dinky looked at her mom with determination. “Mom, Mr. Anon is different…I just know it.” She said.

Derpy looked at her daughter and then at herself in the mirror…and she was right. She was letting her own insecurities draw her back…but not tonight! She was not going to let anything stop her! “Alright, I’ll do it!” she said.

“Yay!” Dinky said as she hopped into her mothers’ hooves and wrapped her in a big hug. “Love you, mama.”

“Love you too, sweetie.” Derpy said with a grin, but then she gasped. “Oh, I better get ready!” She said as she began to get ready.

20 minutes later…

Anon was now outside Derpy’s house, feeling a bit nervous with his black bow tie wrapped around his neck... This was his first-well not exactly the first date, but the first date he had in a while. As he mentioned to Rarity before, he had some bad experiences in Canterlot…he just hoped that this would turn out better than the last.

He gulped as he took a deep breath and looked determined. “Alright, here we go.” He said as he then used his left hoof to knock on the door. As he waited for her, he began to ponder about how the date will go, will he make a fool of himself? Will he say or do something to mess up? All he had to do was hope and pray to Celestia that it would turn out best.

“A-Anon?” He got out of his thoughts when he turned to see the voice of Derpy and when he saw her, he felt shi jaw drop. Because the gray mare had her mane tied in a ponytail, and she was wearing a blue necklace around her neck. Her cross-eyes looked down, feeling a bit nervous. “I hope you don't mind the way I look.” She said sheepishly.

Anon began to blush a bit as he smiled. “You look beautiful.” He said with a smile.

As soon as she heard that, it was now Derpy’s turn to blush as she made eye contact with her. “Thank you..” She said to him with a smile. “So…what do you have planned?” She asked.

Anon smiled. “Well, I thought of a nice dinner at Café Hay, and then..if you wish, we could go to Saddle Lake to see Celestia’s sun go down.” He said as he then rubbed the back of his head with his hoof. “If that sounds alright with you of course.” He said, and much to hsi relief, Derpy nodded with an eager smile.

“Hey Derpy, hey, Anon.” They both turned to see Fluttershy trotting over with a pleasant smile on her face. “A little birdy told me of two ponies going on a date, and I figured it was you two.” she said with a giggle as Anon and Deroy blushed. Fluttershy smile. “I will take good care of Dinky, you both go and have fun.” she said to them both.

“We will, and thanks again Flutters.” Anon said with a smile as he and Derpy went off to enjoy their date, leaving Fluttershy behind.

A bird perched by Fluttershy and tweeted to her, and she smiled. “I know, they make a good couple, don't you think?” She asked. The bird tweeted again and then she blushed. “M-me and Discord? I-I don’t know what you're talking about!” she said, with the bird smirking as Fluttershy made her way inside to watch Dinky.

The bid turned towards the camera and said. "She knows what I'm talking about." He said with a wink

(Hey, no 4th Wall breaking in this story!)

Café Hay

Anon and Derpy made their way to Café Hay and the waiter sat them down at their table outside.

“Would you two like to start off with drinks?” He asked, with the two nodding.

“I’ll have a glass of Apple Cider, please.” Derpy said to him. Anon ordered the same thing.

“Be right out with your drinks.” the waiter said as he trotted off, leaving the two to look over the menu.

“Jeeze, this stuff looks good.” Anon said as his mouth began to water a bit, Deroy noticed and giggled a bit. “What do you think, Derps?” He asked. “And since I asked you, you can get whatever you want, I’m paying

Derpy blushed at being called that name, nobody ever called her that before, but she smiled at him. “Well, I think I might get the Grilled Hay and Cheese sandwich,” but then her smile turned into a frown. “Wait, are you sure you want to pay?” she asked with Anon nodding. “I don't mind paying-”

“Derpy,” Anon said sternly. “I’m the gentlecolt, I will pay, don’t worry.” He said with a gentle smile on his face.

Deroy then hid her face behind the menu in order to hide her blush. “Celestia, his smile is so…infectious.” She thought with a giggle to herself.

And she wants the only one blushing, Anon was as well. “Ok, so far so good, all I gotta do is not say anything stupid or embarrassing, and everything will be alright.” He thought. And because they were in thought, they did not notice their water coming back with their drinks.

“*Ahem*” the waiter said, getting their attention. “Drinks.”

“Oh, sorry.” Anon said sheepishly as he used his magic to grab the drinks and place them down.

The water smiled. “Now are you both ready to order?” He asked.

Derpy smiled and nodded. “I’ll have the Grilled Hay and Cheese Sandwich please?”

Anon then sighed. There were so many choices that he just couldn't decide, so he did the next best thing. "I'll have what she's having." He said.

"Excellent choices." The waiter said as he then took the menus and put them on his back. "I'll be sure to get those meals right out immediately."

As the waiter left, the two got back to each other. "So…Anon, I was wondering." Derpy said. "What was it like? Living in Canterlot?"

Anon shrugged “Eh, it was alright I guess. Not really used to living amongst the elites though.” He said to her with a small frown on his face, something that Derpy noticed, despite her cross-eyes. “I mean… it seemed as if no matter where I went, I was always surrounded by unicorns who acted so stuck up and high and mighty of themselves.” He then sighed and looked down. “I mean I knew I had other friends there who didn't act like that and I'm thankful for it…but some of the elites..it was just a bit too much for me to take.”

Anon looked down and sighed. “Sorry if I’m making you worry,” He said to her, but then he felt a hoof grab onto his and he looked to see Derpy giving him a smile.

“You don't have to be sorry, and the most important thing is that you live here in Ponyville now, surrounded by many friendly faces.”

“Like yours?” Anon asked, making Derpy giggle a bit.

“Mmhmm.” She said to him, but then her doubts of thought came to the rand and she turned away. “Hey, Anon?” she asked as she got the location's attention. “What made you…well…ask me…the town clutz..on a date?” She asked him.

Anon looked at her to see that she looked nervous and a bit worried. Oh Celestia, what did he do? Did he say something wrong?

“Dinner is served.'' The two got out of their stance when they saw the waiter return with their meal. “Enjoy.” He said with a smile as the unicorn and pegasus thanked him.

It was now a bit tense, the both of them not really talking as they ate their meal, but even with the tension, they could not deny that the meal was good. The gooeyness of the cheese really blended in with the hay…it was simply divine.

Anon looked up to see Derpy eating silently and he frowned, he had to somehow break the tense ice. “How's your meal?” He asked, finally.

“Really good.” Deroy said with a small smile, still looking down, but then looked up at him. “What about you?”

“Fantastic,” Anon said. “The cheese really melts in your mouth, and with the bread and hay in there, it's simply awesome.” He said to her.

“Wow,” They both heard some noises and laughter and turned their attention towards two female earth ponies, who were snickering at them. “Look at that, the Muffin clutz, on a date.” she said.

“I know right?” The other female said. “I feel so bad for the stallion, a cutie like him with a clutz like Derpy? Give me a break.”

Anon glared at the two hard, he came here just to be with Derpy, not hear any rude comments about her. These Ponies should just leave if they are jealous of him. This is the kind of stuff he was dealing with back when he lived in Canterlot, and he was not too thrilled.

He then noticed Derpy was shrinking a bit, as her lip was quivering and got concerned. “Derps,” He said, getting her attention. “Don't pay them any attention.” He said to her, “You are here with me and only me, ok?” He said in a gentle tone.

Derpy, while still feeling a bit upset, looked to see his genuine smile and smile a bit. “Ok…” she said meekly, almost in a shy tone like Fluttershy. As she said Thai, the two then began to resume eating their meals, and as they ate, Depy still felt the insults going on in her head and got nervous, but she was willing to make it through since Aon was here with her.

SPLASH

Everypony gasped a bit and Anon jumped back in shock over what happened. What happened you ask? Well, Derpy was splashed with a lot of water, the liquid dripping all over her body and getting all over her meal, ruining it.

Derpy was still for a moment, as her eyes winded, and her breathing got a bit heavy. Anon turned to see the culprits were none other than the two earth ponies, both of them carrying glasses of water with their mouths.

The ponies dropped the glasses out of their mouths and smirked smugly. “Oops, looks like we got the clutz covered in water.” One of them said,

“Mmhmm, sorry clutz.” She said as she then looked at Anon while batting her eyelashes eyes. “Hey stud, why don't you ditch her and come with us?” She asked, with the other one giving him the bedroom eyes as well.

Derpy was shaking…her mane and coat were wet, her dinner was ruined and now, two mares were trying to steal the stallion she had grown to have feelings for. Her whole night was ruined….and now she just wanted to leave.

Anon saw her shaking and got concerned. “Derpy?” He asked in a gentle tone. But Derpy just fluttered her wings and then began to take off, tears going down her face. “Derpy!”

“Leave me alone!” She cried as she then took off, leaving the cafe with everypony watching her leave.

“Der- '' but Anon was soon stopped by the two Earth ponies who stood in front of him, smiling at him.

“Ahh, don't leave.”

“Yea, we aren’t clumsy like her, we can be your marefriends, and much bett-”

“GET LOST!!” Anon shouted at them, with both of them reeling back in fright at his anger. “Who do you think you are to tell me who I can and do not like?” He asked in anger. “You are exactly like all the other stuck-up snobs I met back in Canterlot! Always going on and on about how you're better…WELL, YOU AREN’T!” He shouted.

He then took a breath and spoke with a calm, yet angry tone.“Yes, Derpy might be clumsy, but that's what makes her unique, and she never stops trying to do her best. She is wonderful, kind, and makes the tastiest muffins in all of Ponyville!” Anon said as he turned his attention to the other diner goers. “I will not stand by and have anypony insult the mare I love!” He said. He finally said it, making everypony gasp a bit. “That’s right, I love Derpy Hooves! And if anypony has a problem with it, I’ll buck them so hard they’ll go flying all the way to Yakyakistan!” He exclaimed as he slammed his hoof down and was about to leave, but not before taking some bits out of his saddle back and putting them on the table for the waiter, and turning to the diner goers. “Tell the waiter I said thanks for the food and it was delicious, please.” He said more calmly as he then ran off to chase down Derpy.

Saddle Lake

Anon looked all over Ponyville for Derpy, and there was no sign of her at all. At first, he thought she went home, but he doubted it, there was no way Derpy would want to see Dink as she was. He asked around and nopony had seen her, not Pinkie, Twilight, Spike, Bon Bon, etc, etc. And he was feeling worried.

But then he saw some broken things and assumed that Deroy was responsible, luckily he saw that the stuff led to a trial and he followed it. The trail took him outside Ponyville and it stopped right there, and he only assumed where she would be going next...Saddle Lake

Of course, he was just wondering, but something in his gut told him that he would find her there. After a few minutes, he heard some sobbing and he followed the noise. And much to his relief, he saw Deroy, sitting on her flank, head down, and crying.

The sight alone made his heartbreak and he went up to her, albeit slowly. Finally, he got there and he was right in front of her. “Derpy?” He asked, but Deryo was still sobbing, either ignoring him or not hearing him. Anon sighed a bit, he didn't want to leave her alone…not like this and he sat down next to her.

Derpy sniffled a bit before turning her attention to him. “Anon…I’m sorry.” She said through her tears.

“Now, why are you sorry? It’s not your fault.” He said to her,

“*sniff* yes it is.” Derpy said as she wiped a tear away. “I always get comments about how much of a clumsy ditz I am. *sniff* And how a cross-eyed freak like me can be a mother, and raise Dinky.” She said through sniffs and she sobbed again. “I’m the worst pegasus ever!” She sobbed into her arms, everything coming on her crashing like a pile of bricks.

But then she felt something soft engulf her in a hug, making her gasp a bit. Anon was the one who hugged her, not caring at all if he got himself wet, he just wanted to be there for her. “You are not the worst.” Anon's voice said gently. “Every other pony might see that, but not me. At least I know you try your best and you don't let your cross-eyes or clumsiness stop you.” He said to her, making her stop crying for a brief moment. “You know what I think of you?” He then stopped hugging her and looked into her golden eyes. “I think you're kind, sweet, funny, and a hard worker and you make the tastiest muffins in all of Ponyville, even better than Pinkie Pie…don't tell her I said that.” He said.

Even though he did that small joke at the end, Derpy looked at him with shock as her face began to go red from his words. “Anon…” She said shakily. Anon then pressed his forehead into hers as he looked at her.

“You know..you are not like the others in Canterlot. I dated a few of them, and they were all stuck up, arrogant. I couldn't deal with it anymore and I left because of it.” He said. “And when I moved to Ponyville, I was scared to enter a relationship because I was afraid that the same thing would happen…but the more I spent time with you and worked with you…I realized that you are not like the ones in Canterlot. Sweet, caring, caring for Dinky, and everypony else for their mail.” He said with a smile. “Derpy Hooves…this date made me realize that I have feelings for you, and I want to be with you…would you..well… want to be my marefriend?” He asked with some hesitation.

Derpy was even more shocked…was she just asked…to be somepony’s marefriend? That was when she began to cry again, but this time, it was not out of sadness. “YES!” she cried as she pressed her lips to his, shocking him for a second before he sighed into he kiss, he wrapped his hooves around her neck, and she pressed her hooves into his chest. The two lost in a love state, ignoring everything else around them.

After a good fve minutes, they broke the kiss and looked into each other, eyes staring deeply into one another. “To be honest Anon,” Derpy said. “I too had feelings for you as well. When you offered to work with me in the post office, you were so caring and helpful. And you don't mind my klutziness, I try so hard, but you never get mad at me or anything.” He frowned. “I was worried about that first because I didn't think you would have anything to do with me.”

Anon chuckled. “Nopony is perfect.” He said to her, “But that doesn't mean you are useless either. I don’t care about it either. You're sweet, and very beautiful.” He said with a derpy smile again with tears going down her eyes.

“Anon…” She said as she kissed him again and hugged him, they both looked up to see Celestia's sun going down and they smiled as they both snuggled up to each other to watch it go down. As they did that, Derpy looked at him. “I love you, my stallion…”

Anon looked at her with a smile of his own. “I love you too, my beautiful Muffin Mare.” He said as Derpy giggled in glee as the two watched the sun go down. Sure the date might not have turned out as they had hoped, but they could not deny that they were now happy for the first time in their lives..for they found each other.

Galla Dissaster

Ponyville Post Office

“Anon!” Anon and Derpy both looked up from the desk to see the young dragon, Spike enter the post office with two tickets.

“Oh, Spike, how are you doing bro?” He asked as the two gave a hoof bump. Derpy smiled and went over the counter to give the young dragon a big hug.

“I’m great,” Spike said. “Sorry if I am bothering you two, but I was told to give you these.” He said.

Anon looked confused as he used his honor to take the tickets. “Thanks, Spike….what are they?”

Spike smiled. “Tickets to the grand Galloping Gala!” He said with a smile. “Celestia wants you to bring Derpy to enjoy it.” He said with a smile.

Anon and Derpy have now been together for almost five months now, and their love was pretty strong, especially with Anon being very patient with Derpy’s… accidents now and then. Derpy even insisted that Anon move in with her and Dinky, to which he had no objections.

“Oh, the gala?” Derpy asked with some excitement in her voice. “I always wanted to go to one of those.” She said as she turned to Anon. “Have you been there, Nonny?” She asked.

Anon shook his head. “Not really, I’m not into those fancy parties. My parents always went, but I always stayed back at home.” He said as he looked at the ticket. “Still, I wonder why Celestia wants me to go.” He said in confusion.

Spike shrugged his shoulders. “I don’t know, but maybe you should go, I mean since you and Derpy are together now, maybe you can have some fun there.” He said.

Anon thought it over as Derpy nuzzled her head on his shoulder. “Maybe…” He said.

Spike rolled his eyes. “Ok, save it for the bedroom.” He said.

That little comment made Anon and Derpy blush red. “Shut up!” Anon said to him. “Besides, you're one to talk, I see you around town nuzzled with Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo.” He said, now it was Spike's turn to blush. “How you got three fillies to fall in love with you is a mystery itself.” He said.

Spike blew him a raspberry. “Anyway, at least think it over.” He said. “Oh, I gotta get back before Twilight goes into panic mode. I’ll see you later.” He said to them as he left the office.

Derpy looked at her ticket. “I still can't believe that I got an invite to go.” She said with excitement in her voice. “I always wanted to go and see it.” She said Anon looked at her and he smiled a bit, sure he didn't like fancy parties…but Derpy seemed like she wanted to really go.

“Ok then,” He said to her, getting her attention. “We will go.” He said to her, making Derpy look at him.

“Are you sure?” she asked him. “I mean as much as I want to go, I don't want you to go just because of me.” She said,

Anon shook his head and smiled. “Derpy, you're my marefriend, and I want to make you happy. If you want to go to the Gala, then I would be honored to take you there.” He said with a slight bow.

The act and gesture made Derpy blush madly. “Ok then…” she said as she fanned herself with her hoof, making Anon laugh and he wrapped a hoof around her and kissed her, making the gray mare return the favor by wrapping both hooves around his neck.

Ponyville Express

Anon, dressed in his black bowtie, was now sitting with Derpy, who was dressed in a light blue dress, with her hair tied in a braid and wearing a blue necklace. All of these were courtesy of Rarity, who let them have the items free of charge.

Anon and Derpy were snuggled together in their seats with smiles on their faces. “You think it was alright having Dinky be babysat by Mrs. Cake?” She asked.

Anon nodded. “She has foals of her own, so I doubt a filly will be an issue for her.” He said to her, he then looked out the window and sighed. "I just hope this goes well…I don't need those stuck-ups being mean to my Muffin." He thought.

“Hey…Nonny?” Derpy said to him, getting his attention. “Could you kiss me please?” She asked.

Anon smirked and wrapped a hoof around her as his face got close. “You don't even have to ask.” He said softly as he gave her a gentle kiss on the lips, making the cross-eyed mare blush madly, but she didn't care as she closed her eyes and elated into the kiss, not caring who saw them.

Canterlot

After getting off the train, the couple finally made their way across Canterlot. To say the least, Anon felt nostalgic being back here, having not been back for months. Of course, he has been back to visit family and such, but that was pretty much it, he did use to send letters to the friend he did have here…but after a while, they stopped sending him letters and that was pretty much it.

Of course, it didn't bother him much…it did, but now he had some new friends, so it made things better in the long run.

“I’m so excited!” Derpy said as she began to fly in the air with her wings fluttering. “I have never been to the gala before!” She said with a smile.

Anon smiled. “Don't worry Derps, I promise you that tonight will be special for you.” He said.

That was when Derpy came back down and hugged him. “Have I ever told you that you're the best boyfriend ever?”

“Every single day.” He said with a smile, a smile that Derpy returned. “Now come on, we must make haste to the castle.” He said, and that was when he felt himself being lifted off the ground by Derpy, who was holding him in her arms.

“I can get us there.” She said with a smile, and while Anon was happy…a part of him was nervous.

“Oh boy..” He thought with dread.

Royal Castle

SPLAT

The partygoers snapped their heads towards a window, where it showed Derpy and Anon, whose faces got squished together after Derpy crashed into the window by accident.

“Oops,” Derpy said in an adorable voice, even though they were now squished in the window..but it didn't last long as the two then started to slide down and land on their flanks. The partygoers shrugged and went back to their business and talked amongst themselves.

The doors to the castle opened up and Anon and Deroy both entered, after spending a few seconds fixing themselves up, Derpy was looking all around in delight, but Anon was nervous. Of course, he wanted Derpy to have the best time of her life, but he was just afraid that somebody would try to ruin it for her.

But at the same time, he breathed deeply and looked determined. “No, this is going to be the perfect night for us both!” He thought with determination.

“Ahh, Anon, Derpy.” The two saw Princesses Celestia and her sister Luna and smiled at them.

“Princesses,” The couple said in unison but then relaxed. “Jinx!” They said again, making them laugh a bit.

Luna and Celestia were giggling as well. “Well, we are glad you both could come to the gala.” Luna said with a smile.

Anon smiled. “Yea, but I was wondering, why did we get invited?” He asked. “I mean don't get me wrong, I don't mind, but I am a bit curious as to why though.”

Celestia smiled. “Well, Twilight is the one who suggested it.” This brought a shock to the couple, with Ceklestia smiling. “Twilight has seen you both go out to the cafe, and she decided to treat you obht to something nice.” She said,

Derpy had a massive smile as she shook with excitement. “Wow, I need to thank her…where is she?”

“She is inside dancing with Flash,” Celestia said as she nudged her head to the ballroom door. “Shining Armor is in there as well, keeping an eye on things.” but then she leaned down close with a sly smile. “Of course, we all know why he is really here.”

Anon chuckled. “Let me guess, is it to make sure Soarin doesn't try anything with Twilight?” He asked, and when Celestia nodded her head, Anon laughed. “I figured as much.” He said. “Are the others here as well?”

“Yes, Pinkie Pie is with the one named Cheese Sandwich, Rainbow Dash is with Soarin of the Wonderbolts, Applejack is with Caramel, Fluttershy is with Bulk Biceps, and Rarity is with Lucky Streak.”

“Cool, is Spike here as well?”

“Oh yes, Spike is here with the Cutie Mark Crusaders…Spike has three marefriends.” Celestia whispered before tears began to leak out. “My boy is growing up so fast!” she cried into her hoofs, the sight made everypony giggle a bit.

Luna looked at Anon. “While not as dramatic as my sister, I am also happy for my nephew for finding love.” She said to them. “Now go and enjoy yourselves.”

“We will.” They both said as they left the princesses of the night tried to calm the princess of the sun calm down and stop the waterworks.

Anon and Derpy walked into the main ballroom and looked all around them, and Anon was…well..not too amused at this. It just seems like any other fancy party, and he was not too fond of it.

"Pinkie's parties are more fun than this…" He thought with annoyance, but his frown softened and he saw Derpy look all around in excitement."But snatching for my Muffin." He thought with a smile.

"Nonny," Derpy said to him. "What should we do first?" She asked.

Anon didn't really know how to respond. Of course, he wasn't trying to avoid the question, but he just…didn't know. He's never been to the gala before.

"NONNY! DERPY!"

Saved by a hyperactive pink mare! Anon and Derpy turned to see Twilight and her entourage of ponies (and dragon) with their dates. With Spike and the CMCs with them as well.

"Oh, hi everypony." Derpy said with a smile on her face as the two trotted over to them all.

Twilight smiled. "Is this the first time you two have been here to the Gala?" She asked with the couple nodding their heads. "Well, we are all here together so…"

"Uh, actually,” Anon said to her, interrupting. “Sorry Twi, but I kinda just want to be here with Derpy. I know these elites can get snooty and if they try anything with her then…yea.” He said with some slight anger, in his voice.

Twilight understood him though and gave a small smile. “Well..ok then, but if you feel like it, you both are more than welcome to join us.” She said, with Anon and Derpy both smiling and nodding at her. “Well, we don't want to keep you so we’ll see you later.” With that, Twilight and her entourage took their leave, leaving Derpy and Anon to themselves.

The two looked around and were thinking of what to do. “So….what should we do?” Anon asked her.

Derpoy looked to see some ponies dancing and she smiled. “Anon, you want to dance with me?” She asked with a hopeful smile. Anon looked at the group dancing and pondered about it, he was never that much of a dancer…but he didn't want to deny a good evening with the mare of his dreams

“Well, ok then.” he said with a smile, making Derpy squeeze and drag him over to the dance floor, the many ponies surrounding them gave them weird looks, but nonetheless continued to go about their own businesses. Anon inwardly claimed himself down. “You are here with your marefriend, pay no attention to these jerks…just stay relaxed.” He thought.

“Nonny?” Anon’s thoughts were stopped by Deroy, who tilted her head. “Are you ok?” She asked.

Anon smiled and nodded. “Yea, sorry Derps, just thinking of something for a second.” He then cleared his throat. “Now let's dance.” He said as the two began to dance. So far things were going pretty well, and the dance they did was really nice as well. Anon smiled at Derpy who seemed to be having a blast. “Maybe this night was a good idea after all.” He thought. “What cpu;d possibly go wrong?”

He just had to ask that, didn't he?

Yea, he just had to-HEY!

Tee-hee *runs off*

Anyway….unfortunately, Derpy was having so much fun, that she didn't see where she was going and she accidentally bumped right into some unicorn, who then bumped into somepony else and it made one big collapse of a mess, with ponies tumbling and stuff with er falling or breaking.

Now the area was surrounded by broken tables and ponies getting up, feeling dizzy from the impact. Anon and Derpy stared at the entire thing with nervous looks on their faces.

“Oops,” Deroy said nervously. “I’m sorry everypony.” She said to them all with a sad tone of voice, but many of them were not too happy with her.

“You clumsy oaf!” Said a stuck-up tone.

Anon gritted his teeth. “Oh great..” He thought as they both tuned to see a unicorn stallion with a white coat and a long flowing blond mane and arctic blue eyes. Prince Blueblood was his name, the distant nephew of Celestia and Luna. Anon knew Blubllod back when he lived in Canterlot and let's just say that Blueblood's attitude is one of the many things that caused Anon to leave. And he was not too happy because the oh-so-precious white coat that he had groomed for his occasion was now covered in food.

“I got some food on my coat!” Blueblood complained. “My coat was all groomed up for this occasion and you ruined it!” He snapped.

Derpy shrank a bit from him yelling. “I-i’m sorry.” she squeaked.

Anon glared hard at the prince. “Back off, Blueblood.” Anon said with a stern tone of voice.

Blueblood glared at him, but not before inspecting him close. “Wait a minute…Anon?” the stallions said with shock. “Whe-what-who-” He ranted. “Where have you been?” He asked.

Anon shrugged shoulders. “Moved to get some new scenery.” He said.

Blueblood glared at Derpy, who shrank behind Anon. “And why did you bring that clumsy mare here?” He asked.

Anon glared at him. “That ‘Clumsy Mare’ happens to be my marefriend.” He said defensively. Blueblood looked at him and back at Derpy with a shocked look.

“What? Are you serious? Galavanting with the commoners?” He asked. “Why would you degrade yourself to be with them? You had it good up here with-”

“Oh shut up!” Anon snapped. “No, I did not have it good! Sure my parents raised me right, but you know how much of a pain in the flank it was hearing about how so fabulous everypony was here?” He asked. “And then the girls I date here were stuck up and arrogant as hell, and your attitude towards others? That is the exact reason why I left for Ponyville. And I love it there! I made friends, and I got the best thing of all.” He turned to Derpy. “A beautiful mare to love and care for. Sure she is a clutz, but that is what makes her unique and she never lets it stop her from doing what she loves!”

Derpy had her hooves to her chest as her face was heating up. And many of the stallions and mares in the room were in awe at Anon's speech. Twilight and the others were actually watching as well and were smiling as well, with Spike being nuzzled by the CMCs

“YEA!!” Bulk Biceps said to him, with Anon smirking back.

Blueblood however glared hard at Anon with anger. “You want to live with commoners?” He asked. “Then why don’t you just LEAVE!

POW

Anon was struck in the face by Blueblood, making him fly backward into a table and crash, making everypony in the room gasp. Blueblood smirked, happy with his work. But Blueblood cried in pain as he was bucked right in the gut by Derpy, who was shaking with anger and her face full of rage. “Don’t you dare touch him!” She said, But Blueblood glared hard at her.

POW

With an audible gasp from everypony and an audible impact. Derpy was struck right across the face by an enraged Blueblood, Derpy fell back onto the floor, her cheek turning red from the impact. Blueblood glared hard at her and spit right at her face. “Filthy clumsy pathetic-”

“BLUEBLOOD!!” Everypony in the audience turned to see Anon getting up, and if looks could kill…then Blueblood would be dead. As Anon was giving him a fierce look, a look that would make anypony tremble on their hooves. His horn was glowing as he breathed hard and deep and put his head down..before looking up and yelling. “I’M GONNA KICK YOUR ASS!!”

ZAP

Blueblood was sent to the wall by a powerful magic blast from Anon, who was gritting his teeth in rage. Not wanting Blueblood to get to him, Anon used his magic to trap him in a magic aura and began to swing him around all over the place, king him into tables, the walls, everything in pure fury.

Anon then dropped Blueblood to glance over at Derpy, who was being cared for by Twilight, Spike, and Fluttershy. He then glared back at Blueblood, who was getting up and breathing heavily, but then he was engulfed by another magic aura. “Where do you think you're going?” Anon growled as he began launching him into things once again like a ragdoll.

The others were watching this with shock on their faces, never knowing Anon was capable of that much anger and fury…was he going to stop? Derpy weakly opened her eyes and looked to see Anon. Spike filled him in on what happened and this made the gray mare shocked at how Anon was doing to Blueblood.

Even though she appreciated him defending her, she didn't want him to do this…anything else would suffice…but not this, with a deep breath she said. “ANON!” She shouted.

Anon stopped his assault on Blueblood to turn to see Deroy looking at him with a pleading look and he ran over to her. “Derps, are you alright?” He asked with concern, and she nodded.

“Nonny…please don't do this.” She said to him, “Please don't beat him up.”

This brought a shock to the stallion. “But Derpy, he hurt you! I don't care if he hurt me, but if he hurts you then-” but he was stopped by a hoof gently touching his lips, to where he kissed said hoof.

Derpy giggled at the kiss for a bit before looking at him. “Anon, I appreciate you defending me, but I don't want you to get so mad…please?” She said to him,

Anon looked to see the pleading in her voice, he turned to the others to see that they too were nodding. Even if Bulk Biceps was secretly wishing he would give Blueblood a kick in the flank. He sighed and helped up Derpy. “Alright Derps, c’mon… let's get out of here.” He said as he began to walk out, but not before turning to Twilight. “Tell Celestia and Luna I apologize for the mess and I will repay her when I get more bits.” He said to her as he turned to Blueblood with an angry scowl. “Consider this a warning, Blueblood.” He said. “You ever come near me, or my special muffin again ... .and you're going to need a new set of teeth for your special pearly whites.” He growled as he led his beloved muffin mare out of the castle, but not before asking Spike where they could get some good food.

Donut Joes

The two stopped by the donut shop that Spike recommended, with the two of them sitting outside on a bench, with a box of donuts and two mugs of hot cocoa with them. The Galla…was not the best for them, the memories of the evening still playing in their heads.

Anon turned to Derpy. She was quiet throughout the whole thing, he had tried to get her to talk but she wouldn't budge. Was she mad at him? Was she not in the mood? It was making him a bit nervous.

“Anon,” Derpy said to him as she then hugged him. “Thank you.” She said.

Anon smiled and hugged her back. “No problem…maybe next time we just go out to eat instead of the Galla.” He said, making Deroy smile and nod. Anon gulped a bit before reaching his back.

Flashback/Saddle Lake

“Really?” Anon smiled and nodded as he showed a ring to Spike, Big Mac, and Caramel. It was a nice ring with a golden diamond on it.

“Yes, my brothers. I am going to ask Derpy to marry me.” He said with a smile on his face, with the guys smiling and clapping their hooves )well claws in Spike's case)

“How are you going to propose? Are you going to do it in the middle of town?” Spike asked.

Anon shook his head. “No, because then it might pressure her into saying yes and I don't want to do that to her.” He smiled as he liked the ring, but then he frowned a bit. “I am a bit nervous though.”

“What do you mean?” Big Mac asked him.

Anon widened his eyes. “Sweet Celestia, you do talk!” He said dramatically, making the other guys laugh and for Big Mac to send him a short slightly amused glare. Anon then frowned again. “It's just, with what she told me about her relationship ending…I just fear that she might not want to be with me, you know? Like what if I ask her and she decides never to speak to me again?” He asked.

Spike smirked. “Buddy, you are overreacting, everypony in town knows that you two are practically inseparable.” He said. “I mean you are patient with her and very caring. You wouldn’t believe how many times I hear Rarity and Sweetie Belle mention how it's like a Fairy Tale.” the others snorted a bit.

“I guess.” Anon said as he looked at the ring again, his nervousness fading and replaced with determination. “I need to figure out a time to properly do it…but when?” He thought.

End of Flashback/Donut Joes

“Well, I guess it is the best time to do it.” He thought as he looked at Derpy, who was enjoying her donut. “Hey, Derpy.” He said to her, getting her attention. “These ... The past five months have been so amazing, you know? The many dates we went to, the star gazing, the mail sorting.” He snorted, making her giggle. “Derpy…you really are the mare for me.” He said, making her blush a bit.

“S-stop it,” She said as she looked down, but it proved worthless as Anon used hsi hoof to gently raise her head up and he got off the bench.

“Derpy Hooves…I have a question…and well.” He then got on one knee and got out the ring. The sight made Derpy gasp loud and put her hooves to her face. “Ever since I met you, you have been an absolute joy in my life. Your muffins, your smile, Dinky…everything about you complete me…and I want to spend the rest of my days with you.” He took a deep breath. “Derpy Hooves..would you make me the happiest stallion in all of Equestria and marry me?” He asked her.

Derpy was at a loss for words, but her face was heating up, and tears were going down her face…so what was her answer? “Yes,” She softly said before launching herself at him. “YES YES YES!” She shouted as the two fell onto the grass, and Anon laughed and held her tightly.

“You made me the happiest stallion ever!” He exclaimed as they both got up and wrapped hooves around each other. “I love you Derpy!”

“And I love you Anon!” She said as the two then pressed their muzzles and kissed. Everything around them went off as they were lost in their one joyful encounter. The Gala was a disaster like the first date and it ended in violence. But now…there was nothing stopping them from their embrace, nothing.

“*SQUEEE*”

Well…except for that as Twilight and her entourage actually followed them and spied on the whole thing, when he proposed to Deroy and she said yes, all the girls were basically squealing in delight, and the guys smiled at them.

“Good job, buddy.” Spike and the other guys thought with smiles on their faces.

Anon and Derpy looked at the group and smiled bashfully. Anon smirked at them. “Everypony, arrange the marriage!” He exclaimed, ending with the entire group cheering.

Author's Note

So yea..I was planning on making this a sequel, but I figured what the heck I'll just add in another chapter for the heck of it ;)

The next chapter will be about their wedding and everything else ;)

Should I write a sex scene? Or should I just imply it? Like having them give each other the bedroom eyes and then just cut to them in bed afterward, that sort of thing? Let me know.

anyways, see you all next time as we get to the wedding ;)

The Marriage

Author's Note

Well, everyone, we have the final chapter of this short story.

Maybe at one point, I'll do something else like this but for now, I want to focus on my Ben 10 fic first.

Please enjoy :)

The Marriage

Canterlot/Wedding Hall

“I can do this.” Anon said to himself in the mirror. Today is a big day for him, because today was the day that he and Derpy hooves were to be married. With the help of Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle, the wedding was all planned out. Twilight and her entourage served as Derpy’s bridesmaids, Spike, Big Mac, Caramel, Bulk Biceps, and Discord serving as his best men (even if there is only supposed to be one best en, anon wanted all of them to share the role) and the cutie Mark Crusaders and Dinky were going to serve as the flower fillies.

Dinky couldn't be ever more excited about Anon being her new daddy. She was super happy and he was happy that he was going to call her daughter. As soon as Derpy told her the news, Dinky couldn't be more excited and glomped into Anon, with the stallion laughing.

“Anon,” He turned to see Caramel approach him. “Are you almost ready?” He asked.

Anon smiled and nodded his head. “Yeah, almost.” He said as he looked into he mirror and gave a short smile. “It’s funny.” He said, with Caramel looking confused. “For a long time, I didn’t think I would ever find my soulmate, especially with my experiences in Canterlot…but after moving to Ponyville, and meeting Derpy, all of my fears had vanished right after our disastrous date.” He then turned to Caramel. “And I bet you feel the same way about Applejack?”

Caramel blushed. “Wel…uh..” He stammered, trying to find the right words, but Anon chuckled and brought him to a one-armed hug.

“Just messing with you dude.” Anon said with a smile as he and Caramel gave a chuckle together.

Meanwhile in another part of the hall. Deroy was being fitted by Rarity, Deroy was dressed in a lovely yellow dress with sequins and her mane was done in braids.

“Oh, darling, you look perfect.” Rarity squealed with happiness. “You and Anon are the ideal couple.” She said,

“Thanks Rarity…” Derpy said with some hesitation, a feeling that the fashionista noticed.

“What's wrong?”

Derpy gave a small sigh. “I just…what if I mess up?” She asked. “I already lost my first husband with my clumsiness, leaving me to take care of Dinky all by myself ...what if my clumsiness messes things up for Anon and me? What if he leaves me too?” These negative thoughts were beginning to get to her. “Maybe this was-” but her mouth was closed off by Rarity, who gave a stern look.

“Derpy, look at me. Who cheered you up when those snooty ponies dumped water all over you?”

“A-anon.”

“And who got mad and beat up that ghastly blueblood after he hit you?”

“Anon?”

Rarity nodded. “Darling, if Anon didn't want you, he would never have done those two things. I think you will be fine no matter what, so there's no need for you to feel any fear.”

Derpy looked at her and at her reflection in the mirror. Rarity was right,s he was letting her nervousness get the best of her…but not today. “Alright.” Derpy said, this time with more determination.

20 minutes later…

The entire hall was now filled with many residents of Ponyville. With Mayor Mare at the podium and Anon at the altar with his best men. The bridesmaids were on the other side, looking excited.

“Are you nervous?” Spike asked Anon.

“A bit, but I’ll get over it very quickly.” He said with determination in his voice.

Discord, while usually being a tricker, extends his neck around him to give him a stern look. “Marriage is a sacred thing, and you only live once Anon. Don’t mess this up.” He said.

“Alright, is everypony ready?” Mayor said ads everypony then went silent as Octavia Melody and a bunch of todehrs began to play the wedding march, and everypony turned to the door to see the Cutie Mark Crusaders and Dinky Hooves trotting down, tossing flower petals on the ground while giggling to themselves. The sight made many of the adults gush with adorableness.

“Cutie Mark Crusaders: Flower Fillies!” they said in unison giving hoof bumps to each other, Even Diky got in on the action. The main three saw Spike and trotted up to him and each of them gave the young drake kisses,making the young drake blush a bit.

“Girls, not now.” Spike said feeling a bit embarrassed, which grew even more when he saw Twilight and the Mane 6 giggling. But then his embarrassment went away as they all heard some hoofbeats and turned to the door.

Standing at her end was the bride herself, Deroy Hooves, being escorted by her uncle, Doctor Whooves. When he saw Derpy in her dress, Anon felt butterflies fluttering in his stomach as he saw her. The mare he worked with, the mare who enjoyed eating muffins, the clumsy mare whom he fell in love with…it felt like a dream come true for him.

Derpy felt the same, as she saw her love at the altar, she felt tears in her eyes. The stallion who didn't mind her eyes or clumsiness, the stallion who beat somepony up because she was attacked…she just couldn't believe that this was becoming a reality for her.

“You ready dear?” Doctor Whooves asked her.

Deroy nodded. “Yes, Uncle.” She said as the two began trotting down as Octavia and others played the wedding march. And to say that there was a dry eye in the hall was a lie. After a few minutes, Derpy made her way up and she and Anon faced each other.

“Now, are we all here and accounted for?” Mayor Mare asked as she looked around, just to make sure. And after a few minutes, she smiled and nodded. “Good, everypony, we are gathered here today to celebrate the marriage between Anon and Derpy Hooves. Now some ponies were surprised by this revelation that these two were getting engaged, but a majority of them were so happy. Now is the time to exchange words.”

Anon was up first, still feeling a bit nervous, but he took a deep breath and looked into Derpy’s crossed eyes. “Derpy. This past year has been the best year of my life. When I lived in Canterlot, I had many bad experiences with relationships because the mares I dated were all vain, and shallow. When I moved here to Ponyville, I thought I would, never be able to find love again…but it all changed when I met you.” His smile grew bigger. “During the months I worked with you in the post office, I felt weird things, and it made me realize that I had fallen for you. You're really nice, caring for Dinky, you make the best muffins. Even better than Pinkie”

“Hey!” Pinkie complained, but everypony ignored her.

“And I will admit, you are a clutz.” He said, making Deroy look down a bit, feeling ashamed. But then she felt a hoof gently raise her up to face him. “But you never let it stop you from trying, and your eyes might be crossed, but they are the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen in my life. Deroy Hooves, I Pinkie promise that I will honor, cherish, and treasure every single day with you and Dinky. Forever and ever.”

After he said his vows, Derpy couldn't help but start to tear up at them, and she was not the only one as her bridesmaids also began to sob as well. Derpy sniffed as she began her one vows. “Anon…you are seriously the best thing that has ever happened to me.” She said. “When Dinky's father left us…I felt like I would never be able to find another stallion that would love us. Especially with my eyes and clumsiness.” Her frown then turned upside down a bit. “But then…you were there, you are nice to me, you treat me with respect, you never tease me for my eyes or clumsiness.” She turned to Diny, who was sitting in Doctor Whoove's lap. “And you always take time to play with Dinky.” She said with a smile, as Dinky smiled back and nodded.

Derpy then turned back to him. “And let's not forget how you beat up Blueblood at the Gala.” She said with a slight chuckle that everypony did as well. “Anon, you really make me the happiest mare in all of Equestria, and I promise to cherish you forever and ever.” she said with the biggest smile ever.

Now it was Anon's turn to shed tears as he looked at her and took a deep breath. “Actually, there is something else I want to do to show how much you mean to me.” He said as he motioned to Spike, who then walked on over to a nearby piano and took his seat. “And I want to say it…well..through song.” He said. “Ok, Spike!” He said.

Spike with a smile cracked his claws and began to play

During his singing, Derpy's eyes began to water as her heart was beating faster and faster. And then the Mane 6, and the guys began singing along with him. The entire time, Anon had his hooves on her shoulders as the mare looked at him, biting her bottom lip and looking so happy.

As the song ended, the audience cheered happily and the singers got back to their places. “Thank you, Anon for that.” Mayor Mare said to him. “Now, the rings please?” She asked, and Spike got them out, and using his magic, Anon got them out as he put the one ring around Derpy and his ring on his horn. “I now pronounce you mare and stallion, you may-” But she was interrupted as Derpy and Anon immediately kissed each other, wrapping hooves around each other. “Kiss…” Mayor Mare said, a bit peeved that she didn't get to finish.

But it didn't matter as the entire congregation all cheered in an uproar, the two married couples then looked out and smiled at them all. To the two of them…this was a dream that had finally come true for the both of them. Now that they were married...they could not deny that they were in for a good life together.

Dinky then laughed happily and trotted up to them and jumped on Anon's back. "Daddy!" She cried as Anon laughed and used his magic to levitate her off of him and he enveloped her in a big hug, in which Derpy joined in. Everypony in the room was awed and some even cried at the scene.

30 minutes Later...

Anon and Derpy were sitting together watching eveypony else socializing, getting refreshments, or out on the dance floor. with the mare resting her head on the station's shoulder. "Anon," She said, getting his attention. "This is the best day of my life." She said with a smile.

Anon smiled back. "Best day of your life so far." He corrected her. "I love you, my Muffin Mare." He said.

Derpy giggled at her nickname and kissed him. "I love you too, my stalion." She said as the two rested their heads together...and drifted off, ignoring everything else going on around them.
