Dance With Me?
Ponyville Schoolhouse
“Remember that tomorrow night is the annual Ponyville Schoolhouse Dance!” Miss Cheerilee said to the class, who all beat their desks with their hooves and the teacher smiled. “Now remember, you don't have to get a date at all, you can just go with friends.” She said. “And bring some family if you wish.” She said with a smile. "We'll need some chaperones."
RING RING RING
The entire class huddled out the door, excited for the next day of fun and excitement. But there was one particular filly who was not feeling so upbeat for it, feeling rather down. Miss Cheerilee saw her and frowned a bit.
“Dinky?” Dinky Hooves, the young daughter of Derpy Hooves, the Ponyville post mare, was in this class and she was..well…down in the dumps it looked like. “What 's wrong?” She asked.
Dinky looked up at her teacher and shook her head. “Nothing ma’am.” She mumbled under her breath.
Cheerilee still kept her frown. “Are you sure? You should be excited about the dance tomorrow.” She said, but Dinky still had her frown. “Is there something you want to talk about?” She asked her.
Dinky looked up at her teacher and she sighed. “Well...I mean, it’s just…I don't know if I want to go to the dance tomorrow.” She said, brushing her hoof to the floor a bit. “And I know it's not just because of the date either…it's other stuff.’ She said,
Cheerilee motioned Dinky to take a seat, and she did and the teacher sat across from her. “What is wrong?”
Dinky looked at her and down. “Well, you know how my mom has her eye issue right?” She asked. “And how does she usually make mistakes?”
Cheerilee tried not to cringe at the many times Derpy gave her the wrong mail…or crashed into her home, but she smiled forcefully. “Sure…” She said.
Dinky sighed. “Well, Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon keep making fun of me for it!” She exclaimed. “Like every chance they get, they keep on telling me how stupid my mom is and all that stuff.” She then sighed and looked away. “I love my mom, and nothing would please me more than to bring her to the dance…but I worry about what every other pony might say.”
Cheerilee looked at her and out the window and in her mind, she was going to give a harsh talking to Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon about this…but she sighed and wrapped a hoof around Dinky, bringing the little filly in a hug. “Don’t you worry about what they say, sweetie.” She said to her. “I think you should do what you think is best, but don't be embarrassed by your mom.” She said.
“I’m not embarrassed by my mom!” dinky said. “I just don't want anyone making fun of her…I got to go!” she said as she hopped off of her seat and took off for the door, leaving Cheerilee looking out with a sad frown on her face.
As Dinky walked out of the school, she noticed many fillies and colts excitedly talking over the dance, and it made her sigh a bit. Who would want to go with her, with her mom being the clumsy mail pony? She didn't have anything against her mother, heck no! But still, who would go with her?
“Well, look who it is?” Dinky sighed as she turned to see none other than Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, the two filly bullies themselves. “If it ain't the daughter the clumsy mail mare!” She said with Silver Spoon laughing alongside her.
Dinky shook with anger as she glared at them. “Leave me alone!” she exclaimed to them, but the two wouldn't let up.
"But why?" Silver Spoon asked with a mocking tone. "Too embarrassed about your mom?" She asked with her and Diamond Tiara laughing, and Dinky was shaking. "I mean I don't blame you, I wouldn't be caught coming if my mom was that clumsy."
As the two laughed, little Dinky was shaking with anger, but at the same time, she was also about ready to burst into tears…
"HEY!" The three fillies turned their heads to see a familiar purple dragon looking at them all with an angry look on his face. “Leave her alone!”
Spike, the young dragon assistant to Twilight Sparkle, such an interesting creature because he is the only dragon resident of Ponyville. Dinky has seen him around a few times, but never once has she and him ever had a decent conversation with each other.
But today she felt happy because someone was here to help her out, but Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon scoffed.
“Well, look who it is.” Diamond Tiara said with a mocking tone. “It’s the resident lizard.” She snarked at Spike. “Shouldn't you go running back to your owner like the pet you are?”
Spike glared at her. “I’m not a pet, I’m her assistant.” He said. “And I won't go anywhere till you two leave Dinky alone!” He said with his arms crossed. Dink looked at Spike and the two bullies and saw at home the tense situation had reached.
Silver Spoon noticed the tension and despite not usually going against Diamond Tiara, she knew that hsi was not going to end well for either of them and nudged her. “Diamond Tiara, let's just go.” She said, “We have to go get ready.” She said,
Diamond Tiara looked at her best friend, and then glared at Spike. “Hmpf, I don’t have time to waste on you, gecko!” She said as she turned and stuck her nose and rump in the air as she huffed off, with Silver Spoon following close behind.
Spike rolled his eyes. “Brat…” He muttered as he looked over at Dinky with concern and walked over to her. “Dinky, are you okay?” He asked.
Dinky looked at the dragon's caring eyes and a part of her felt like blushing a bit. “Y-yes…thank you Spike.”
Spike nodded and smiled. “Yeah.” He and the filly looked at eachother and felt a bit awkward, since it was just the two of them now. “So…uh…” He said, trying to strike up a conversation. “I was going to go get some Ice Cream, you want to join me?”
Dinky looked at him with some thought, after what had just happened all she did was smile and nod. “Yea…I would love to.” she said with a grin.
10 minutes later…
After the two kids got their ice cream, they both sat down on a bench and started talking. “So you might not go to the dance?” He asked.
Dinky nodded. “I want to, but not if Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon are going to make fun of me and my mom.” She looked down. “I don't want my mom to get insulted at the dance just because of her eyes and mistakes. And besides, who would want to go with me anyway?”
Spike cringed a bit at the times when Derpy either crashed into the library or just crashed in total trying to deliver mail. But a part of him shook those feelings away. “Well, you shouldn't give them the benefit of the doubt.” He said to her,
Dinky raised her eyebrow at him. “I mean, you can’t let them get to you like that, so what if your mom is a bit…ditzy.” He said. “I have seen how nice she is and is always trying even if she does mess up.” He said.
Dinky gave him a small smile. “Thanks, Spike.” She said as the two then licked more of their ice cream cones, Dinky then saw Spike and giggled, taking the dago by surprise. “You got some ice cream on your nose.” She said as she then leaned forward and gently licked the icy treat from his nose.
Spike could not but help it…but when she licked him, he felt his face blush and heat up a bit. All he ever had eyes for was the beautiful Rarity…so why did he heat up when Dinky licked his nose? And to be honest, he was not the only one who blushed, as Dinky realized what she had just done and turned her head away.
“Sorry…” She muttered.
“It’s fine…” Spike muttered back. And now it was a bit awkward for the both of them. “Dinky,” Spike said, trying to break the tension. “If you..will..still want to go to the dance…maybe I can go with you.” He said.
Dinky looked at him with surprise, did he really just ask her if he wanted to go with her to the dance? But why? What was his reason? “But why?” She asked.
“Well, we can go as friends, right?” Spike asked. “And plus, if Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon give you a hard time.” He said with a determined look. “I’ll be there to protect you.” He said.
Dinky looked down as her face became red again…what was the feeling she was getting? “Well…if you don't mind…then ok.” She said as she looked at him with a smile. “If you want to go to the dance with me, I'll be more than happy to go with you.” She said,
Spike smiled big. “Cool!” He said as he then ate his Ice Cream in one sitting and hopped down, with Dinky following suit. “So…what time tomorrow?”
Dinky smiled. “Well, maybe around 6?” She asked him. “Because I was thinking..if you want to.” She turned her head away. “Maybe we can get something to eat before the dance? Maybe we can also get to know each other a bit better?”
Spike looked at her and smiled as he nodded his head. “That sounds like a great idea.” He said as he then took her hooves into his claws. “Dinky, I will make sure tomorrow night goes off without a hitch!” He said with a smile as he then let go and started to walk away. “I’ll see you tomorrow!” He said as he then walked off.
As she was watching him leave, Dinky; 's face started to heat up as her heartbeat went up a bit. Was this…did she…was this a date?
Spike himself was walking back as his face was heated up. Why did he act like that? Did he li-No! He liked Rarity! Dinky didn't even know that well…but he didn't deny that she was pretty cute, still, he shook his head as he then got back to the library.
“No! This i just a friend thing!” He said. “We are just going as friends.” He said as he took some deep breaths. “GAH, what am I thinking?” He asked as he then entered the library.
“Spike?” He looked up to see Twilight at the table looking at him with concern. "What's wrong?" She asked.
"Nothing!" Spike said as he then took off for his room upstairs. He didn't want to say anything to Twilight, whether it was either out of embarrassment or something else, he didn't want to say anything.
Twilight saw the retreating form of her little dragon friend and got. more concerned. "Spike!" She said as she went up.
Hooves Home
Dinky arrived back home and entered. "Mom?" She called out to her, but there was no answer, guess that meant that Derpy was still working.
Dinky sighed as she then went over to the couch and plopped herself down. The events of the day were playing in her head, but the most distinguishing thing was on her mind…she was going to the dance with Spike!
Now aside from today, she never interacted with Spike that much before. They did talk before but never had they had an actual conversation like the one they just had. And she was actually excited.
Spike was nice, cool, and pretty cute, may-wait…cute? Did Dinky just call Spike cute? She didn't know why she said that. Well…Spike was a bit-
"GAH, what am I thinking?" Dinky said as she rubbed her face with her hoof. "We're just going as friends, and that is that." She said as she then remembered the words he said to her.
"If Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon give you a hard time. I’ll be there to protect you. " Those words kept playing in her head. Did he mean it? Would he really protect her if those two bullies tried anything? The very thought made her face turn red as a cherry.
“Dinky!” Her thoughts were soon interrupted by the familiar sound of her mother's voice. “Sweetie!”
Dinky looked at her mom and waved. “Hi, mom.” She said with a small smile as she trotted up and hugged her tightly. “How are you?” She asked.
Derpy smiled. “Great, I got us some delicious muffins from Sugarcube Corner.” She then brought out a basket and showed it to her daughter. “I even picked up your favorite, Chocolate chip.” At the sound of chocolate chip muffins, Dinky licked her lips in delight at the sight and smell of the delicious treats.
Derpy smiled as she put the basket down. “Oh, sweetie, guess what?” She said to her daughter, who looked confused. “I was told about the dance tomorrow.”
Dinky gulped a bit. “Oh ok..”
“And I’m going to be a chaperon!” She said with a grin, making Dinky gulp nervously even more. “Isn't that exciting?”
Dinky wanted nothing more than to tell her mother not to do it. She wasn't embarrassed by her at all, she just didn't want her mom to get heckled on by many of the fillies and colts, especially Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon…but then she remembered Spike's words in her head.
And Dinky gave a calming sigh. “I believe him.” She thought as she looked at her mom and smiled. “It is exciting Mom.” She said with a smile.
Derpy looked at her daughter and trotted to the kitchen to get something, but then.
CRASH
“Oops.” Dinky sighed a bit at her mom once again being clutzy. She was still hesitant, but as long as Spike is with her, then she would not have to worry…she hoped.
Spike…oh right, Dinky was starting to wonder if she should tell her about how Dinky was going to go to the dance with Spike, how would she react? Would be happy? Not too keen on it? Well not the latter, Derpy has never said a bad thing about Spike before.
“Hey Mom,” Dink said as she went to the kitchen, where Derpy was trying to figure out some recipe. “Can I tell you something?”
“Sure,”
Dinky sighed. “You see...I kinda…well…have somepony..well…going to the dance with me.”
CLANG
Derpy dropped whatever it was she was doing and ran right to her daughter and stared at her with winded eyes and a big shocked look. “You….have a date?” she asked.
Dinky…well…she didn’t know if she could call it a date per se, but then again, Spike was pretty-Gah why was she thinking of that now? “Well…we are kinda going as just friends…”
Derpy's smile kept going on. “That's still fine, who are you going with?”
“Well, you know Spike right?”
“Oh, you mean the baby dragon who hangs around Twilight?” Derpy asked. “Yes I do, he is such a nice dragon, you know he helped me with some mail at one point and- wait a minute...are you saying that he is going to the dance with you?” She asked with a raised eyebrow.
Dinky nervously nodded. “Yes…?” she said with hesitation.
After a few seconds of intense silence, Derpy got her smile back. “Well, that is fine with me. Spike is a kind young drake and I have full confidence that he will treat you right.” She said, “Now can you help me with dinner?” She said.
Dinky inwardly sighed in relief as she prepared to help out her mom. Now all she could hope for was for the dance to be fine…and hopefully nothing bad will happen. But the thing about the dance she was the most excited about…was hanging out with Spike.
Golden Oaks Library
“Twilight, please calm down.”
“How can I calm down, when I just found out that you're going on a date?” Twilight was now holding Spike in her hooves and spinning with glee. Spike had told Twilight about him going to the dance with Dinky and for Twilight..she felt so happy. “Oh, it feels like it was only yesterday when I hatched you.” Twilight said as tears began to pour out of her eyes. “My little dragon is growing up!”
Spike rolled his eyes, he was used to affection but this was a bit too much. “I mean we are just going as friends.” He said to her.
Twilight smirked. “That’s what they all say.” She said as she happily went to get a scroll and parchment. “Oh, we got so much to do for you!” She then began to scribble down some stuff. “We need to get you a suit, some cologne, maybe some flowers, and-”
Spike inwardly sighed, of course, Twilight was going to chart some stuff down for something as simple as this. Why is she so excited? This is not a date! He and Dinky are just going as friends, plus he still has eyes for Rarity!
But when he thought of Dinky’s yellow eyes, he couldn't help but feel his face heating red from the sight of it, there was something about those eyes that just-
“GAH!” Spike shouted as he ran upstairs, not even paying attention to Twilight, who was still going over what Spike needed for the dance. He then popped himself in his basket and sighed as he put his claws up to his face. “I need to figure this all out before I lose it!” He exclaimed.
But even if he was very conflicted about the whole thing, he couldn't help but stop smiling because of one thing. He was going to spend time with Dinky!
Author's Note

Dinner and Emotions
Golden Oaks Library
Well, today was the big day, the day of the annual Ponyville Schoolhouse Dance! And many fillies and colts could not be any more excited for such an event! But there were two particular creatures the most excited…two guesses as to who
Spike was now at the library, going over a list of what to get. He had to go to Rarity’s to get himself a tuxedo, then he had to go get some flowers, and then some other stuff he would need for Dinky.
Rarity….when Spike thought of the fashionista, he tried to imagine her lovely face, tried to feel the lovely bubbly goofy side of him that he always felt when around her. But for some odd reason, thai time was a bit different ... because he started not to see her in that way.
Like normally even the very thought of Rarity could make his heartbeat go faster than a train, but when he tried to think of her like that…he didn't feel his heartbeat race…in fact, he didn't see or feel anything romantically about Rarity, why was that?
Spike shook his head but then wondered about what to do with Dinky before the dance. “Maybe we can go to the Hay Burger for some food, and then the dance.” He said as he smiled at the thought of it all and the most interesting thing about this? When he thought about Dinky’s smile, he began to feel his heartbeat go fast, like how it was with Rarity…but he frowned, why was he thinking of this?
He doesn’t like Dinky like that! He was in love with Rarity, Rarity! Dinky he just saw as a friend…well sorta, he was hoping that they could know each other a bit better tonight at dinner and at the dance…he then shook his head, now was not the time to deal with conflicting thoughts, now was the time to prepare. He just has to go to Rarity’s to get his tuxedo.
Hooves Residence
Dinky, while still nervous, was for the most part, excited about the dance, since she knew that her mom would be there chaperoning, and also because Spike would be there as well. She was doing what they had planned. Dinner, dancing, maybe a kiss and-wait a minute!
Was she just thinking about a kiss? Dinky’s face turned red and shook her head, why did she think that? That didn't make any sense at all! No, why should she think of that sort of thing? Kisses are icky!
Dinky then inwardly took a deep breath to calm herself down. She had to figure these conflicting feelings out and she needed to do it very soon. But for now, she had a lot of stuff to do in order to get ready, first, she needed her dress, and then she needed to see what kind of jewelry she would wear…oh this was so exciting and nerve-wracking at the same time!
“Dinky!” The filly turned to see her mother peer into her bedroom door with her usual smile. “Are you excited?”
“Yes, mom.” Dinky happily said. “I can't wait for tonight! I especially can't wait to be with Spike, I hope he can dance pretty good.”
Derpy giggled. “I’m sure he will.” She said as she poked her head out the room. After she left, Dinky plopped onto her bed with a smile..this was going to be a great night.
Rarity’s Boutique
Spike had finally arrived at the boutique and went to the desk to ring the bell.
DING DING
“Be right there!” The familiar voice called out as Spike sighed in relief. Normally he would be so excited at seeing Rarity, but this time was different, he was not there to flirt, not there to compliment, nothing…all he came to do was get his tuxedo and that was that.
While he waited, Spike remembered what happened yesterday with Dinky, Diamond Tiara, and Silver Spoon and he thought long and hard about it. Why were Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon so mean? What was their beef with Dinky and many others?
All he knew was that if they were to do this at the dance, then he would be the one protecting Dinky, just like yesterday.
“Spike!” The young drake's thoughts were interrupted by the timely arrival of Rarity, who was smiling at him. “What can I do for you?” She asked him.
Spike nodded. “I need my tuxedo.” He said.
“Oh right, let me go get it for you darling.” She said as she trotted off to get his tuxedo. When she did so, a part of her felt excited for him. Twilight told her about Spike going to the dance with Dinky and Rarity couldn't help but feel excitement for him. Of course, she knew about his crush on her after his…mild rampage through Ponyville on his birthday.
But why did she never say anything about it? Whether it was due to her not wanting to hurt his feelings or something else..it didn't matter, all she could do was hope that maybe…Spikes crush on her will end and he can pursue somepony who was around his own age.
“Aha! Here we are!” Rarity said as she used her magic to alleviate a nice-looking black tuxedo that came with a gem-encrusted bumper bud and gem bowtie. Rarity used her magic to alleviate the suit Spike. “Here you go, Spike.” She said.
Spike took the clothing and smiled. “Thanks, Rarity.” He said with a smile and was prepared to turn around to leave, but he then stopped and frowned a bit. “Hey, Rarity?” He said, getting her attention. “I have a question for you.”
“Oh, what could that be?” She asked.
Spike wanted to ask her about a possible future involving him and her, but something in his gut told him not to. After that, he sighed and shook his head. “Never mind,” He said as he walked out of the boutique, leaving a confused yet concerned Rarity looking after him.
Golden Oaks Library
5 hours later…
The day had come and gone and Celestia’s sun was only beginning to go down a bit. Spike was checking himself out in the mirror. All dressed up in his tuxedo, with his cumberbund and bow tie on. “Alright Spike, remember. ” He thought. “We are just going as friends, just as friends. ” He kept thinking about it, but the question was…why was his heart still beating fast at the thought of Dinky?
All he could do was sigh and go down the stairs, where he saw Twilight looking at him with a big smile on her face. “Oh, look at you, looking so dapper.” She said,
“Twilight, please.” Spike said, feeling a bit embarrassed.
“Right, sorry.” Twilight said sheepishly but then got serious. “Now Spike, remember, make sure you treat her right, make sure to act like a proper gentle colt, make sure she-”
“Twilight!” Spike exclaimed. “I understand, no need to freak out!”
Twilight sighed. “I’m sorry, Spike. But just the fact that you have a date, your first date, I can't be any more prouder and happier.” She said as she went over and gave him a hug, a hug that he sighed to but returned nonetheless.
“Yea..I guess.” Spike said with a small smile as he then looked up at the clock. “Oh, shoot! I gotta get going.” He said. “I’m going to go pick up Dinky and we are going to go get something to eat at Hay Burger before we go to the dance.” He said as he got to the door, and he turned back around. “Are you sure you can't chaperone?”
Twilight shook her head. “I have some studying to do.” She said. “Just enjoy yourself alright?” She said to him. “And treat her right, you hear me?” She asked.
“I will.” Spike said as he grabbed the flowers nearby and opened the door and walked right out of it. Twilight was now all by herself…and what was she going to do now?
“MY BABY IS GOING ON A DATE!!” She shouted with tears of joy going down her face. “Oh, Spike, I'm so proud of you!”
Hooves Residence
Dinky was now looking at herself in the mirror. Her dress was a baby blue dress with little sequins at the bottom, her dirty blond mane was now groomed and braided up, and she was also wearing a lovely pink eyeshadow as well as a pearl necklace around her neck.
Derpy entered the room and gasped, making the illy turn to her. “Dinky, you look so lovely.”
Dinky giggled. “Thanks, mom.” She said as she looked down. “Do you think Spike will like my look?” she asked with hesitation. “Oh, maybe he won't like my mane or my eyeshadow. Dang it, why did I have-” but she was soon stopped by Derpy, who put her hoof to her lips.
“Dinky Hooves.” Derpy said to her with sternness in her voice. “Spike is going to think that you are the prettiest filly in all of Ponyville,” she told her with a smile. Dinky looked at her mom and smiled back.
Of course, she believed her, but in her mind, she was still a bit nervous about what Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon would say at the dance..well..all she could do is hope and pray for the best
DING DONG
Dinky's ears perked up. “It must be him!” She exclaimed with excitement as she ran to the door. She gave a cough and fixed her mane a bit before she opened her mouth. “Who is it?” She asked.
“A young dragon here to escort a lovely filly to the dance.” Dinky had to blush at Spiked words.
“I’m coming.” She said as she opened the door to see Spike right at the door in his suit and flowers in claws. When the two saw each other, they both blushed. Dinky thought Spike looked very handsome and cute in his tuxedo, and her face was redder due to the flowers he was carrying.
Spike himself was blushing because of how beautiful Dinky looked in that outfit, with her makeup and hair all done…she looked like an angel. “Wow…she is even prettier than Rarity .” He thought with a love-sick smile on his face. His thoughts then ended when he saw Derpy at the door.
“Ok kids, so what are you going to do first?” Derpy asked.
“Well, I thought of going to the Hay Burger, and then we make our way to the dance.” Spike told the postmare, who smiled.
“Ok then, I’m going to go ahead to the school to help prepare things.” She said as she then closed the door and began to take off. “I’ll see you both in a little while.” she called out to them as she took off, leaving the two kids alone.
Spike looked at Dinky and gulped. “Hey Dinks,” He handed her the flowers. “I got you these.” He said.
The filly looked at them and slightly blushed. “Spike, thank you.” She said as she used her horn to take them close to her face to take a whiff. “These are lovely.” She said as she then quickly placed them back in the house.
Spike then gave a calm sigh as he extended an arm. “Shall we go to dinner, my lady?” He asked.
Dinky giggled and nodded. “Yes, my gentladrake.” She said as she took his arm into hers and they both walked to the Hay Burger.
Hay Burger
To say that the two were being watched was a bit of an understatement because it seemed as if the patriots of the burger joint were eyeing Spike and Dinky for some reason, whether it was because the filly was with a dragon or something else.
As they were eating, Spike was telling Dinky some stories about his time growing up in Canterlot. “So you were just found as an egg?” Dinky asked with interest.
Spike nodded. “Yep, I don't know where I came from or anything. All I know is that I was given Twilight as an exam for her to get into Celestia's school.” He said as he took a bite of his burger.
Dinky looked at him and raised an eyebrow. “So like…do you know anything about your biological parents?” She asked.
Spike stopped eating and looked at Dinky, and then down at his burger. “N-no…no I don’t.” He said with a small frown. “I have been meaning to ask, but I never had the time to do it.” He said as Dinky looked at him with concern.
“I’m sorry.” She said meekly. “I shouldn't have-
“Oh no, you're fine.” Spike said with a small smile. “I’m not upset. I am just stating the obvious.” He said as he took another bite of his burger, and a part of him shook a bit as he looked at Dinky. “Hey, Dinky…can I ask you something?” Dinky looked at him with a raised eyebrow. “Have you ever…felt useless?” He asked.
Dinky stopped eating to process what he was saying. “W-why do you ask?” She asked hesitantly.
Spike then put his food down and gave a deep sigh. “Because…I feel like that sometimes.” He said. “You see, when me and Twilight came here to Ponyville, all of a sudden she had a whole bunch of new friends to call her own…and what about me? There have been times where I have either been told to stay behind.” He sighed.
“Like when everypony went to the Grand Galloping Gala, I was so excited to spend time with them all, I had everything planned…but they all took off and did their own thing and I was left by myself.” He sighed again. “And then there was the time around 3 weeks ago when everypony went to see Pinkie Pie's sister Maud, but did I meet her? Nope! I wasn't even aware of her having a sister till after the fact!”
Dinky noticed how Spike was trembling a bit and she was getting nervous. “Spike-”
“WHY?” He exclaimed in anger. “Why is it that I am all of a sudden tossed to the side like trash? What did I do to deserve this? Do they hate me?” He asked as tears began to spill out of the corners of his eyes. “Are they embarrassed of me because I’m a dragon?” He asked softly as tears spilled out of his eyes
But then he heard hoofbeats and he looked up to see Dinky giving him a soft look, after a few seconds she lunged and hugged him tightly “I don’t think you deserve it.” She softly said to him as Spike then wrapped his arms around her. “I might not know you that much, but I think you're awesome.” She said as she looked at him. “Maybe after the dance…you could talk to Twilight about this.”
Spike sniffles again. “But what if she thinks I'm being a wuss?”
Dinky gave a small smile. “I don't think that will happen.” She said, Spike then looked at her and down and sighed.
“I’m sorry if I ruined our dinner.” He said.
Dinky snorted. “It's fine, I’m having a great time with you.” She said to him, “To be honest, sometimes I feel like it too.” She said.
Spike wiped his tears away and looked at her curiosity. “Huh?” He asked with the filly nodding her head.
“With my mom…sometimes I just feel like there is nothing I can do to help her, you know? Whether it’s getting the wrong mail delivered or crashing into things…sometimes I wish I could help, you know? I could help her on her deliveries…but I’m still a little filly.” Now it was her turn to start shedding tears.
“She does so much for me, and she is often ridiculed for it too.” she sniffles as Spike watches on. “Sometimes…I fear as if somepony will complain and take me away from her.” She said,
She then felt something touch her hooves and saw Spike give a fierce determined look. “That will not happen.” He said to her.
“But-”
“But nothing! It won't happen, I promise you.” Spike said to her. “And if anyone is to say otherwise…well, remember I am Twilgith's assistant, ergo I have seen and met with Princess Celestia…so if anypony complains…I’ll go straight to her.” He said.
Dinky looked at him with winged eyes as tears spilled even more. “Dang it, look at what you're doing!” She said with playful sarcasm. “Now I'm The one ruing dinner.” She said, and they brought laughter to the two kids. “I guess we are both not that very different.
Spine nodded in agreement. “I guess not." He said with a smile, a smile that Dinky returned but then raised an eyebrow. “Hey, what time is it?” He asked her, but all he got was shrug.
“It’s 6:50.” Said a random stallion with a smile, and this made the two kids go wide-eyed.
“THE DANCE!” They both shouted as they grabbed their burgers shoved the entire thing into their mouths and hopped off the table. Spike left some bits on the table and along with Dinky, made a dash out of the restaurant.

So we are here are everyone, the dance, how do you think it will turn out? Let's watch and find out.
Stay tuned for the epilouge :)
And I hope you enjoy this one
The Dance
Ponyville Schoolhouse
It took them quite a while but the two were finally able to get to the schoolhouse just in time. And good thing too because many fillies and colts were already lined outside waiting to get in. “Well we finally made it.” Spike said.
“Yea…'' Dinky said as she took some breaths. “Gosh, I’m out of breath and I haven't even danced yet.” She said as Spiek chuckled.
“Same.” He said as the two laughed a bit.
“Spike! Dinky!” who turned to see the Cutie MArk Crusaders themselves; Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo in dresses walking up to them. "Hey guys." Scootaloo said with a smile and turned her attention to Spike. "Are you with Dinky this evening?"
Spike smiled and nodded. "Yep, I offered to take her and she agreed." He skad, making Dinky smile and nod as well.
The three Crusaders looked at them and each other and snickered. "Oh, does this mean you two are going out?" Apple Bloom asked.
That question made both Spike and Dinky drop their jaws and their eyes to bulge right out. "No!" They exclaimed.
"Then why are you two blushing?" Scootaloo asked with a cheeky grin. But this made Spike and Dinky blush even more as they glare at the filly pegasus.
"Zip it!" Dinky said, turning her head with a huff. Spike did the same but the three fillies were still giggling to themselves, the two were totally in love, so why deny it?
As she had her head turned, she then noticed Diamond tiara and Silver Spoon nearby and a part of her was dreading this. What if those two ruin the night for her? What if they do something bad to Spike? But then she felt a familiar law hold onto her hoof and she turned to Spike, who gave her a reassuring smile,
“I’m here.” He said to her, making Dinky smile back at him, but it also made the two blush, and made the CMC’s giggle once again.
10 minutes later….
Finally everypony was in the school dancing, and many chaperones were standing on the sidelines making sure everypony was behaving themselves properly.
Spike and Dinky were laughing as Spike was showing off his dance moves to her, making her giggle a bit. “Spike, you're such a good dancer.” She said,
Spike smirked. “What can I say? I have a way of dancing.” He said, making her smile.
“Hey guys!” They turned to see Apple Bloom coming up to them. “Are you guys enjoying the dance so far?” She asked.
“Yea,” Spike said. “So far nothing is going wrong, and Diamond Brat and Silver Brat have not made their presence known to us.” He said, the two fillies laughed at the names Spike called the two bullies.
“Well, well, look who it is.” they all turned to see the titular bullies themselves approaching them with smug looks on their faces.
“Why did I say that? ” Spike inwardly asked as the two bullies came up to them.
“If it ain't the blank flanks and the gecko!” Diamond Tiara snakes at them with a smug look.
Spike glared. “Oh boy, fillies and gentlecolts, look who it is! Diamond Brat and Silver Brat!” He sneered, making some of the fillies and colts nearby snicker.
Diamond Tiara glared. “Cram it!” She snapped at him. “This is a school event, so I don't even know why you're here! You don't even come here.”
Spike crossed his arms. “So? I still came here with Dinky, gota problem with it? Take it up to Twilight!” He said.
Silver Spoon rolled her eyes. “Whatever, just don't do anything to embarrass yourself here. Oh wait, Dinky's clumsy mom is already going to do it eventually!” She said as she and Diamond Tiara laughed.
Dinky lowered her head as Apple Bloom glared. “Why don't you two bug off and leave us alone!” She said with a frown.
Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon rolle their eyes. “Whatever, just don't get in my way.” The former said as the two huffed, turned around and trotted off.
“Those two I swear…” Spike said with balled fists and steam flowing out of his nose, with Apple Bloom glaring back at the two with anger.
Dinky looked at them and smiled a bit, she was so lucky that these two were her friends. “Hey Spike, can you get some punch please?” She asked him.
Spike bowed. “Of course, m’lady.” He said as he walked right off to the refreshments, leaving the two fillies to themselves. Dinky smiled at his form as apple Bloom smirked.
“Dinky, c’mon, just admit that you like him.” The country filly said to her. The little unicorn turned her head.
“I have no idea what you're talking about.” She said as a blush formed on her face, but she could tell Apple Bloom was giving her a smirk and she sighed. “I mean…well…”
Apple Bloom put her left hoof on the fillies shoulder and smiled. “You know, I won't make fun of you, you know that.” She said. “And if you do like Spike, you got my support, and Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo’s.” She said with a warm smile.
Dinky looked at her and she gave a smile. “Thank you…”
Meanwhile, Spike was at the punch bowl getting some punch for him and Dinky. As he did, he couldn't stop but think how pretty she looked tonight, her blond mane all braided, that lovely eyeshadow, that dress….she looked like a princess.
“I think…I might be starting to feel something here. ” He thought with a grin.
CRASH
Spike turned his head to see that Derpy had accidentally bumped into a table with food, and aas she crashed, the table fell, spilling a lot of food on the ground.
“Oops, my bad.” Derpy said with a sheepish smile, as many mars and stallions glared at her.
“I swear to Celestia.” One mare said.
“Why is she even here?” A stallion said.
“I swear, I feel so bad for her daughter, having to put up with her stupidity.”
All the comments made Spike glare and snort with anger, but he didn't want to start a scene so he had to calm himself before he let himself get angry, and he walked back over to Dinky and Apple Bloom, punch still in his hands.
“Spike?” Apple Bloom said, moving the dragon's anger. “Are you alright?” Spike then noticed her and dinky looking at him with concern and he quickly calmed down.
“Yea, sorry.” He said as he handed Dinky the punch. “Just feeling a bit irritated right now, nothing serious.” He said to them with a smile, but the two fillies looked a bit concerned.
After a few minutes they all go dancing. With Spike and Dinky moving to the beat. The whole time, they were smiling at each other and making comments.
The more they danced, the more their hearts beat fast. Dinky was smiling with a blush on her face. "Even with that little incident with Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon…I’m having such a great time with Spike. " She felt her heart flutter. "Could I…be falling in love? "
Spike was looking at her and he began feeling the same. "Dinky is so amazing! And this is going off great despite what happened a while ago. " He then began to think of something else. "I'm starting to see her in a new light…could I…am I starting to feel for her what I feel for Rarity? " He thought.
Dinky didn't see where she was dancing since she was just having the time of her life and she accidentally bumped into somepony…and unfortunately that somepony turned out to be.
"Hey!" Diamond Tiara…of course. The filly stared at Dinky with anger. "You made me spill my drink all over my dress!"
Dinky shrunk back a bit. "I'm sorry.." She said with a frown.
Diamond Tiara was glaring at her. "Jeeze, knowing who your mom is, I have no doubt that her stupidity rubbed off on you!"
That was when Spike got up and his nose pressed to her own. "Back off! She just apologized, What's your problem?"
Diamond Tiara then glared at and went right up to gim, her nose touching his. "My problem, gecko, is her! Her and those three blank flanks!"
"They don't even do anything to you! And all you and your stooge does is treat them like absolute dirt for no reason!"
At this point many fillies and colts were not dancing and coming closer to see the argument break down between the spoiled filly and the young dragon. Dinky and the rest of the CMC's were looking nervous.
"Having a cutie mark means we are special, those three aren't, simple as that!" Diamond Tiara said.
Spike’s fists blacked in anger, thai little brat! How dare she insult his friends like that? But he tried to remain calm, and he did so by taking a deep breath and looking her straight in the eye. “You might have a cutie mark, but it doesn't make you superior to other ponies here.” He said to her as he then turned to his friends. “Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle might not have cute marks but it doesn't stop them from being super awesome.”
The three fillies smiled and blushed slightly at his words and he turned to Dinky. “And Dinky? Dinky is special, sure her mom is clumsy, I won't deny it, but it doesn't make her any less a kind-hearted mare who tries her best and is always there for Dinky.” But he had more. “Dinky is kind, awesome, and it pains me that she has to deal with your bullying, nopony deserves it, nopony!”
At these words, Dinky couldn't help but feel some tears go down her eyes, thai dragon..this special dragon who was her date…was making her feel happy right now.
Spike was not done. "You might think you're special, but you aren't! All I see is a spoiled little filly who believes that just because she has a rich mommy and daddy, thinks she has the right to treat others like dirt! Well I got news for you Diamond Brat, you don't!"
But Diamond Tiara? She was not happy, in fact…she was furious. “You pathetic, lizard…” She said through a whisper as she raised her hoof and…
POW
Spike was hit right across the face by the hoof, causing him to go backwards and land on the floor, making many fillies and colts around him gasp.
“SPIKE!” The CMC’s and Dinky shouted with concern, but Dinky was the most expressive as the four of them ran over to check on him and help him up. Even Silver Spoon was appalled by that action.
Diamond Tiara huffed. “You're just a stupid lizard who doesn't know anything about-”
POW
That was when the snooty filly herself got punched in the face by a hoof coming from an angry Dinky.
“DON’T TOUCH MY DATE!!” She shouted with anger, red spreading on her face. Diamond Tiara then glared hard and that was when the two of them got into one big fight, many fillies and colts cheered for them and many of the chaperones had to run and try to stop them.
Derpy saw what was going on and she ran over and attempted to get Dinky off of Diamond Tiara with the help from Miss Cheerilee. After some struggles, the two mares were able to get the two fillies off of eachother.
Diamond Tiara screamed as she and Dinky glared. “Why don't you and your stupid mother go back to the idiot house where you both belong!” She exclaimed with anger. Derpy then began to tear up and Trott of to a corner to cry, making Cheerilee go off and try to calm her down.
Dinky, breathing, panting, tired, and feeling wrecked was now beginning to tear up. This date was going smoothly, but then this little brat had to go and ruin it! She had had enough of this. She then turned to Spike, who was being helped up by the CMC’s and she went over to them all.
“Dinky?” Spike asked with concern, a red mark on his cheek front he hit, and Dinky gave a tearful frown as she then wrapped her front hooves around him and hugged him tightly.
“Spike, can you please walk me home?” She asked him in a tone that was soft, almost like Fluttershy's voice.
Spike looked at her and nodded. “Of course.” He said as the two then took their leave, away from everypony else and out the doors. Every filly and colt turned their attention towards Diamond Tiara and glared at her, even Silver Spoon was giving her a nasty glare.
The filly was surprised. “What? I was just stating facts! The clumsy post mare who messes alot of stuff, and her daughter who is nothing but a blank fl-”
“Diamond Tiara!” Every filly and colt flinched when Miss Cheerilee walked over and gave her a very harsh glare. “You are in big trouble, young filly!”
The filly named was feeling nervous now.
Saddle Lake
Rather than go home, Spike offered to take her to Saddle Lake instead, the two were now sitting on a bench looking up into the night sky. The whole thing was a bit awkward, having not said anything since they left the schoolhouse.
Spike looked at Dinky, who was looking down and he looked up. “Such a nice night, right?” He asked her, but there was no response. He sighed and looked down. “I’m sorry.” He said, feeling regretful. “I totally ruined our date…” He sighed. “I know you probably don't want nothing to do with me any-”
“No, it was my fault.” Dinky said to him. “I messed up, I punched Diamond Tiara, but it was only because she hit you…you were defending me and the other girls and she just…when she hit you..I felt something snap.” She said to him.
Spike looked at her, and she looked at him and the two smiled a bit. “Why do ln't we both admit that we both messed up the date?” He said.
Dinky giggled. “Ok.” She said to him as they both looked up at the sky once again, Dinky bit her lip and turned to him. “Hey Spike, what you said was true right? About me and my mom?”
Spike turned and nodded. “Yes, Derpy is ditzy, but she never lets it get in her way, it never stops her from being nice to everypony. And you.” His face blushed. “You're sweet, kind, care for her alot, and you wish to help a lot…you're an angel.”
Dinky fastly turned her head away and blushed madly. Spike then smiled as he then took her hooves into his claws, making her look at him “Hey Dinks…I was wondering.” He said. “I…well…was wondering…would you…like to be my girlfriend?” He asked.
Dinky gasped a bit as her blush intensified. “W-what?”She asked.
Spike smiled. “Dinky, we both went on a date, and I asked you to do it, and you could have said no but you said yes, and we had a rather..interesting dinner…and we both depend on each other at the dance! And when I look at you…something in me just goes fluttering, almost like drum beats…I can't deny it any longer.” He said.
Dinky was surprised, but then he smiled. “To be honest…I actually like you too.” She said, “You are caring, sweet, and you are ready to defend anypony from bullies…like tonight how you defended me and my mom from Diamond Tiara…Spike…you ask me to be your girlfriend…and my answer...YES!” She said as she hugged him, making him hug her back.
Why they broke the hug, Spike had his left claw gently touching her left cheek and she bashfully smiled as she put her front hooves on his shoulders as he leaned in close and shared a loving kiss. When they did it, fireworks popped off in their heads as the world around them spun around.
The two broke the kiss as they looked at and smiled. “You know…we haven't had a proper slow dance.” Dinky said to him.
Spike nodded and brought out a record player form somewhere?
Never question logic!
Pinkie!!
Anyway…Spike put a CD on the record player and it began to play a lovely tune. Spike then turned to Dinky and offered his claw. “Dance with me?”
Dinky smiled and nodded as she took his claw and she got on her hind hooves and the two danced together slowly. Now it was just them and them alone with music, they didnt care what was going on around them as right now…all they were focused on was each other. Dinky then brought her head into Spike's shoulder.
“Spike…thank you..” She whispered.
Spike smile. “Anytime, my beautiful filly.” He said as she giggled.
Hooves Residence
The next morning, Dinky was snuggled in her bed with a smile on her face. The night with Spike was a bit of a disaster, but it didn't matter, as it was at that moment when she found her special somepony, and she couldn't be anymore happier.
DING DONG
The sound of the doorbell started to make Dinky move around a bit and groan. She didn't want to wake up because she was having a great dream, and that dream involved her and Spike on their wedding day.
DING DONG
Dinky groaned as she got up and rubbed the sleep out of her eyes, annoyed that her dream got ruined…well, better luck next time I suppose. Dinky got out and went to the living room, where she saw her mother peeping through the peephole in the door. Using her teeth she opened the door to see a surprising sight.
It was Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, and Diamond Tiara's father, Filthy Rich, and he was not too happy. “Ms. Hooves.” He said to her, “I just came over to give my apologies for my daughter's actions last night at the Schoolhouse dance.” He said.
Dinky, now curious, trotted up next to her mom, who looked surprised. Filthy saw Dinky and gave her a sympathetic look.
“Are you the one named Dinky?” He asked, with the filly nodding her head. “I just want to apologize for what my daughter did to you last night and your date. It was totally wrong of her to do so.” Diamond Tiara mumbled something under her breath, but she stopped when her father gave her a glare. “Don’t you even say anything!” He said with a glare.
Derpy gave a small smile. “It’s fine, it's all water under the bridge.”
Filthy frowned. “Still, I believe my daughter and her friend have something they would like to say.” He motioned to the two fillies, who went up to them.
“We’re sorry.” Only Silver Spoon looked apologetic, while Diamond Tiara still looked pretty peeved at this, why did she have to apologize? All she did was give out the truth!
Filthy looked at Dinky. “Now, I believe that your date was assaulted right? By my daughter?” He asked, with Dinkly nodding. “And who was your date?”
“Spike.” She said calmly.
“Spike..you mean the dragon who often hangs with Princess Twilight Sparkle?” He asked, with Dinky nodding her head. He gave one heck of a glare to Diamond Tiara, who gulped nervously.
Golden Oaks Library
Spike and Twilight were eating some breakfast together. Spike had a similar dream that Dinky was having and didn't want it to end, but alas, Twilight had to wake him up…well he could always take a nap later.
“So, what is her agenda for today?” Spike asked her.
Twilight smiled. “Well me and the girls are all going to have a picnic.” She said with a smile. As she said that, Spike then looked into his bowl of oatmeal with crushed gems and frowned about, the memories of him being left behind still lingering, but then.
“Maybe you should talk to Twilight about this. ” Dinky’s voice said as he took a deep breath.
“Twilight, can I ask you something?” He said to her,
Twilight, while confused, nodded her head. “Sure, spike. What’s up?”
Spike sighed. “Why?” He asked. “Why is it that whenever you girls go out and do something I’m always left behind?” He asked, now getting a bit annoyed.
Twilight looked at him with confusion. “Spike what do-”
“Don’t even start!” He said. “Ever since we got to Ponyville, you are always with the girls, and most of the time I am not even invited to those things or just abandoned. Like the Grand Galloping Gala! I was so excited because I was going to spend time with all of you, and what happened? You all left me and I drowned my sorrows at Pony Joes! Then there was the time 3 weeks ago, when all of a sudden, you all go to meet Pinkie's sister, Maud, and do I go? Nope! But you took Owlowiscious, but not me!” He was not getting a bit angry.
“Are you embarrassed of me? Ashamed of me for being a dragon and not a pony?” His claws were now gripping the table so hard that the wood was starting to crack. Spike felt it and he then took a deep breath and his glare softened. “Why am I always the one to be left to clean and look after things while you all go off and have fun while I do work?” He asked her.
For the whole thing, Twilight was confused, but it then got to her about what he had meant, and she was feeling horrible about it. Spike was with her since day one, he was the one who hatched him and took care of him and how does she repay him? Leaving him behind she and the girls got to go have fun together, and Twilight was shedding a tear about it.
“Spike, I’m so-
DING DONG
Spike gave a deep sigh as he got up. “I got it.” He said calmly as he got up and walked to the door, leaving behind a remorseful and silently crying Twilight, when he got to the door he opened it up to see some family faces. “Dinky, Silver Spoon, Diamond Tiara, what are you doing here?” He asked.
“Spike!” Dinky said as he ran in and gave him a big hug, a hug that he returned. “Filthy came here wanting to say something.” Spie looked up at the rich pony who had a solemn look on his face, and he turned shi attention to the bullies. Silver Spoon looked apologetic, but Diamond Tiara secretly stuck her tongue out at him, which he growled a bit.
“Spike?” Twilight came to the door, her eyes a bit red from tears. “What’s going on?” She asked.
Filthy Rich looked at her and sighed. “Princess, I apologize for what happened last night and hope you can forgive my daughter for what she did to your son.”
Twilight looked surprised and so did Spike. “W-what do you mean?” She asked in confusion.
Silver Spoon spoke up. “At the dance, Diamond Tiara said some stuff, and Spike got angry and told her off, and it ended with her hitting him right in the face.”
As soon as she heard that, Twilight’s sadness went away and was quickly replaced by shock and…anger. The latter especially as she gave a really nasty glare at Diamond Tiara, who shrunk back a bit. “You hit Spike?” she asked in a calm, yet dangerous tone.
Filthy then got in front of his daughter. “Look, I understand you're upset and I am about this too, my point is I brought her here to apologize for her behavior.”
Twilight was still not too happy about hearing that her dragon getting hit…but she then felt a claw touch her hoof and she turned to Spike shaking his head as if today “Not worth it” It’s possible he knew that Twilight was about to say or do something and he didn't want her to stoop that low. Twilight looked at him and back at the frighted filly and sighed. “OK then.”
Filthy looked at his daughter who then sighed and looked up at her. “I’m sorry for hitting your pet gecko.”
YOINK
“Ow!” Her little insult resettled in Filthy using his muzzle to pull her tail back.
“Try again.” He said sternly.
Diamond Tiara signed again. “Ok, I’m sorry I hit Spike” She said, this time a bit more convincingly.
“And I’m sorry too for insulting you.” Silver Spoon said. She felt more apologetic than Tiara did.
Filthy nodded. “Well then, I shall bid you all a good day. Diamond Tiara, you are in very big trouble the moment we get home, young filly.” He said as he began to escort both her and Silver Spoon away.
Twilight looked at Spike with concern. “Why didn't you tell me this?”
Spike shrugged. “Well, it all happened pretty fast, and plus I didn't feel like stressing you out over something trivial.” but he was then grabbed and hugged.
“Spike, you can never stress me out.” Twilight said in a soothing voice to him, and she then frowned a bit. “And you're right, I do tend to make you stay behind and I’m so sorry…you're more than just an assistant to me, you were with me ever since I hatched you..and you deserve much better respect.”
Spike smiled as he hugged her back. “That is all I want, I want to spend more time with you and the other girls as well, and not be seen as some sort of joke to you.”
Twilight then let go of him and smiled sweetly at him. “You are never a joke Spike.” She said to him sweetly.
“Oh, and I need to tell you something important.” Spike said as Twilight let go of him.
“Oh, and what is it?” She asked him.
Spike looked at her as he nodded to Dinky who came up and he grabbed her hoof. “Me and Dinky are together.” He said.
“Heck yeah!” the filly said as both she and Spike planted a kiss to each other. The very act made Twilight’s eyes widen with shock as her muzzle dropped to the floor.
“You're dating…you have a girlfriend?” Twilight asked, still in shock.
“Uh…yea?” Spike said nervously, feeling a bit nervous, what was she about to say? What was she going to do?
But his fears were gone as Twilight scooped him up and crushed him in a big hug. “Sweet Celestia, I'm so happy for you!” She said with a big smile. “My little dragon has a girlfriend!” She happily exclaimed.
Derpy giggled at the scene and Dinky just blushed a bit. Spike then got out of the embrace and took a deep breath. “Yep, me and Dinky are together...and while the dance might not have gone as hoped as we planned.” He then felt a hoof on his claw and he smiled at Dinky.
“You could say,” Dinky said. “That it was the best dance ever.” She said as she kissed Spike on the cheek.
And she was right, the dance might not have turned out so good, what with Diamond Tiara ruining it, but it didn't matter. Spike and Dinky both discovered something even better than the dance, for they had discovered each other and now these two were now in a loving relationship.
“I can only imagine how the girls will react.” Twilight said with a smile. “Why don't we all go to the picnic together today, Dinky, and Derpy, would you both like to come with us?”
Derpy smiled and nodded. “As long as there's muffins!” She said happily as the others all laughed a bit, with Dinky resting her head on Spikes as the two smiled and laughed.
As I said before, while the dance didn't go as planned, there was no doubt that Spike and Dinky had the time of their lives, for they realized that they had each other.
