Spike's Hearts and Hooves Week
Unwanted Surprise
Previous ChapterNext ChapterSpike’s eyes fluttered open slowly. The memories of the day before came rushing back to him. He could clearly remember going to Rarity’s, learning of her engagement, the park, and finally the trick he had shown Rainbow Dash. He didn’t want to admit it to himself, but he thought Rainbow Dash looked quite attractive in the park. The wind blowing through her mane, the sun shining at just the right angle, her cyan fur glistening with perspiration, and her magenta eyes staring seductively- Spike shook his head, trying to clear the thought from his mind. She was just a friend nothing more, right? However, Spike didn’t have anymore time to dwell on his current thoughts before being called down by Twilight for breakfast.
“Spike, breakfast!” She yelled.
Spike climbed out of his bed and made his way downstairs. He then made his way across the ground floor and to the dining room table, where a basket of gems was waiting for him. He stared at the gems suspiciously, Twilight only gave him gems for breakfast when it was a special occasion.
“Hey, Twilight. What’s with the gems? I though I was only allowed to have them on special occasions.”
“Oh, no reason. I just thought you might need something to cheer you up after yesterday.”
“Nah, I didn’t need anything to cheer me up today. I just can’t wait to see your reactions when I show you my big surprise.”
“Oh, about that. Somehow everypony in Ponyville heard that you had a surprise for us and are coming over to see it. I hope you don’t mind.” Twilight said.
“I don’t mind. I think I know who spread the news though. I mean, she’s the only one who could have done it that fast, other than Rainbow Dash that is.” Spike finished, chuckling to himself.
Twilight came over to the table and sat down, as Spike picked up the first of his gems and began to eat. “So, Spike. When do you want to shoe everypony this ‘surprise’? It sounds weird. It’t like you to have surprises, unless it’s a prank. It’s not a prank, is it?”
“No, it isn’t a prank. Rainbow Dash even recorded the entire thing. I was going to show you the video, but then I realized it would be easier to believe if I just performed it again.”
“Was that who’s video camera I saw you heading off to bed with?” Twilight asked.
“Yeah, it was. Why do you ask, Twilight?”
“Well, the only way that Rainbow Dash would every let somepony borrow her video camera, is if something big happened. I also heard that she’s been having the Wonderbolt’s over at her house for parties. I think yesterday was one of her parties. Do you think that she would have told them?” She asked.
Spike’s eyes widened as he realized what Twilight was implying. “Uh, Twilight? I’m gonna go check on Rainbow Dash. Oh, and head towards the park after lunch, okay. Make sure everypony else knows where to go. Bye, Twilight!” He shouted before closing the door and flying towards Rainbow Dash’s cloud mansion.
Rainbow Dash was getting out of the shower when her doorbell rang. “Coming!” She yelled towards her front door. She stepped back into her bathroom to look for a towel, when she noticed that there wasn’t one in there, she headed out towards the living room. The doorbell rang again, Rainbow Dash started to get frustrated.
“I said, coming!” She yelled. When she got to her living room she spotted a clean towel on top of the kitchen counter. She started to walk over to the towel when she heard the front door opening. “Ugh, whoever you are, couldn’t you have at least waited until I dried my mane off? I literally just got out of the shower.” She stated turning around without drying herself off. Her cheeks flushed red when she saw who was standing there. “Spike?!”
Spike was slowly flying towards Rainbow Dash’s house, he hoped that he wasn’t to late. He was positive that she would have told Spitfire, Soarin’, and Fleetfoot about what he did. He sighed to himself.
“What am I going to do about that mare?”
Soon enough her cloud home came into view, it was a welcoming sight for Spike, he always liked visiting her cloud ‘kingdom’, well, that’s what he liked to call it. Once Rainbow Dash had started to tease him about his crush on Rarity, he started teasing her saying that in her cloud ‘kingdom’ she was the princess. That was a horrible idea, it ticked her off alot. It mad her so mad, that she threw him out of her house, he also was shunned by her for nearly an entire week. He literally had to buy her Wonderbolt tickets for the next month. It took alot of work, but somehow he managed. That was about the time he started his work on ‘The Ring of Fire’.
Spike was slowly, but surely, closing in on Rainbow Dash’s house. As he landed on her front door, he knocked loudly. He could hear some shouting coming from inside, but couldn’t hear what she said. He waited a few minutes, then knocked again, this time louder. He heard a distinct ‘I said, come in!’ from inside. He slowly turned the doorknob and pushed the door forwards. Once he stepped into her house, he froze from the sight in front of him. Rainbow Dash was standing there with her back turned to him and she was wet from head to hoof.
‘Don’t look any lower than her back, don’t look any lower than her back.’ He thought to himself. When eyes started to drift towards he flank, he quickly looked away and shut his eyes. When he opened them again he saw her starting to turn around. She also stopped dead in her tracks. Her eyes widened in shock. “Spike?!” She yelled.
The only thing he could think of was ‘I’m bucking screwed, she will totally kill me.’
A/N: Inspiration for the 'I said, come in!', was from... You will win all my internets if you can guess the correct T.V. show.
