Ending 2 I love you Spike (Part 1: Happy Ending)

He had made up his mind. As he was walking to the park he decided to look at everything around him one last time. Luna had outdone herself this time. The sky was beautiful the stars were shining brightly and the moon was full. Around him the trees were peaceful, and were beautiful with their leaves fully in bloom. There were flowers of all different colours. There were red, purple, white, yellow flowers. Even the wind was quiet.

Spike had arrived at his destination, the back of the park where there were no ponies in view.

“This is it.” Spike said, talking to himself out loud.

“I don’t see any reason to continue on, Rarity rejected me. I’ll never find love again. Soon I won’t be able to live with my friends anymore…”

Just then Rarity arrived at the park. She heard the sound of someone’s voice.

“Who could that be at this time? Most ponies are asleep by now.”

Rarity walked towards the sound of the voice.

As Rarity walked closer, Spike said.

“It’s time now Spike… here… we… go…”

Spike pulled out the vial of poison from his ‘pocket’.

Rarity could see Spike now.

“Spike. What are you doing here at this time?”

Spike paused for a minute.

What is Rarity doing here? Never mind that now Spike, you need to do this before someone tries to stop you.

As Spike was lost in thought, Rarity saw the vial of poison in his hand. Without thinking, she used her magic to knock the vial out of Spike’s hand.

“Spike! What were you thinking!? Why would you even attempt that?” Anger and worry in her voice.

“Rarity why would you do that?”

Spike quickly started looking for the vial.

“Looking for this?” Rarity said, holding the vial in her hoof.

“I did that because I needed to tell you something Spike…”

“I don’t care what you have to say, you made it pretty clear you didn’t want me in your life. So why don’t you make yourself useful for once and leave me alone.” Spike said tears forming around his eyes.

“I can’t do that Spike, I need to talk to you and you’re going to listen whether you like it or not. This is important for the both of us.”

“Oh really. What could you say that would benefit me?”

“I… Spike… Will you be my special-stallion?”

“Are… are… you serious?”

“Yes. I have thought about it, and I want to give us a chance.”

“You’re not just saying that to make me feel better?”

“Of course not Spike. I am always serious. Rarity would never joke around with such things.”

“Already then, I accept.” Tears of joy were flowing out of Spike’s eyes.

Rarity grabbed Spike and hugged him as tight as possible. She started crying as well. She was crying because Spike was finally her special dragon. She never thought it would be possible, but there it was, the moment she wanted the most. For Spike it was the moment he was dreaming of ever since he first saw Rarity. The mare of his dreams finally asked to go on a date with him. Rarity’s fur was now soaked and Spike’s chest was also soaked.

“I love you Spike.”

“I love you too Rarity. I think I better get back to the library before Twilight notices I’m gone.”

“Spike could you please come home with me, I really would like to have you around, after I just almost witnessed you trying to…”

“Sure Rarity, let me just go home and let Twilight know, it would help if you came with me.”

“I would love to Spike.”

They walked to library. Spike held Rarity’s hoof in his claw. He never wants to leave her side again; this was the best day of his life. They arrived at the library. Spike opened the door, only to see a worried Twilight.

“Spike where were you?”

“I went out for a walk when…”

“I saw him Twilight. He was crying. If I were to guess it was because of my stupidity. I never should have given him the idea that there was no way it would work out. So I asked him to be my special-stallion and he accepted. I asked him if he would accompany me tonight at my place.”

“Sure thing Rarity, but don’t ever do that again Spike! Always let me know where you are, you never know when something bad could happen and then how am I supposed to know where you are when you don’t tell me?” Twilight said her anger building up. Her inner mother took over.

“Sorry Twi, I promise I won’t do that again.”

“Alright. Now enjoy your night with Rarity.”

“Bye Twi.”

“Bye Spike, bye Rarity.”

“Goodbye Twilight.”

With that Spike held Rarity’s hoof in his claw again, as they walked to the Carousel Boutique. Spike opened the door for Rarity.

“Ladies first.”

“Why aren’t we a gentledragon.”

Rarity gracefully walked inside. Spike followed closing the door behind him.

“I’m getting tired Spike, could you wait for me here.”

“Sure thing Rarity.”

Rarity walked upstairs into her bedroom and put on her comfy bathrobe. She sat on the left side of the bed and called Spike.

“Spike can you please come here?”

“Right away Rarity.”

Spike walked upstairs happily and entered Rarity’s room. He noticed her sitting on the bed.

“Spike please come and sit beside me.”

Spike listened and sat beside her on the bed.

“Spike, promise me you’ll never leave me, promise me you’ll always be there when I need you and promise me you’ll only love me.”

“I promise. Now it’s your turn. Promise me you’ll always love me no matter what, promise me you’ll always back me up when the time comes and promise me that you’re love will always be sincere.”

“I promise. Now Spike I think we should go to bed.”

They both got under the sheets the way insisted. Rarity turned off the lights with her magic. They both tried to sleep. But they couldn’t stop thinking about each other.

“Rarity, are you still awake?”

“Yes Spike I can’t sleep.”

“Rarity can I tell you something?”

“Anything Spike.”

“Tonight, if you hadn’t stopped me, I was going to drink that poison. The reasons you told me that we would never work just crushed my world. I lost all hope in life, I couldn’t bare it anymore, and then Twilight helped cheer me up. I asked her if I could accompany her to Sweet Apple Acres to help clear my mind. It was good until I saw you that night. My depression came back, that’s when I ran back to the library. I came up with the plan to go to Zecora’s to make a poison after Twilight fell asleep. I went over to Zecora’s, luckily she was gone so I made the poison. After that I wanted to enjoy the last minutes of my life, by taking a walk to the park. And that’s when you found me.”

“Spike, I had no idea that my words affected you that deeply. If I knew it would hurt you that badly I would have never said all of those things. Please accept my apology Spike, I never meant to hurt you. And after taking a while to think I realized all of my excuses were all invalid.”

“I forgive you Rarity. All that matters is, in the end, it's that we are together now.”

Rarity blushed. She held Spike in a hug. Spike returned it immediately. She gave him a passionate kiss on the lips. They continued holding the hug and eventually fell asleep in that position.

The bright sunlight shone through the windows in Rarity’s bedroom waking both of them up.

“Good morning Rarity.”

“Good morning Spike.” Rarity said giving him a quick kiss on the lips.

“How was your sleep last night Spike?”

“It was great, since you were right next to me.”

Rarity blushed. It might have been cheesy but Rarity loved the compliment.

“How about you Rarity?”

“It was divine, it helped knowing I finally have you Spike.”

“Thanks Rarity, that means a lot.”

They were both interrupted by the sounds of their stomachs rumbling.

“I think we should get some breakfast.”

“Allow me Spike.”

Rarity took off her bathrobe and walked downstairs, Spike followed. They arrived in the kitchen.

“What would you like for breakfast Spike?”

“I would like some of your delicious carrot pancakes.”

“Coming right up!”

Rarity got started on the pancakes, while Spike got the table ready. Spike walked back into the kitchen just in time to help Rarity bring the food to the table. They sat down close enough that their legs were touching.

“What do you have planned today Spike?”

“I probably have to help Twilight with some chores when I get home. And then I was going to just relax tonight. What about you Rarity?”

“I was going to finish making my last order today after you left and then I was going to relax and take some time off tonight.”

“I just got a great idea, how would you like to go for our first date tonight? We could have picnic in the park.”

“That sounds great Spike, why don’t you come and pick me up at six?”

“I’ll be there.”

They both finished their breakfast. Spike helped Rarity clean the dishes. Spike followed by Rarity walked to the front door.

“I’ll see you tonight at six, my lady.”

“I can’t wait!”

Spike kissed Rarity on the lips, surprising her. Rarity returned the gesture.

“I’ll see you later Spike.” She said in a slightly sensual voice.

“Goodbye lady Rarity.”

With that, Spike walked towards the library. Rarity closed the door behind him and walked into her designing room. The room was a mess, or as Rarity called it, “organized chaos”. There was fabric covering every table. Ribbons and bows all over the floor. In the middle there was the dress Rarity needed to finish. It was almost done, it was just missing that “je ne sais quoi”.

Alright Rarity, get in the zone. The faster you finish this dress, the more time you have to get ready for Spike’s date tonight.

Just then an idea struck her.

“IDEA!”

I can’t believe I didn’t think of this earlier. All it needs is…

Rarity was rummaging through her pile of gems.

Aha! Here we go, some beautiful emeralds and amethysts, this will be perfect on the body of the dress, they are just small enough to go along the body.

Rarity used her hooves to have the best precision when she placed the gems on the dress. Her magic would not have been precise enough for that size of gem. She had finished the dress; it was now two in the afternoon.

Perfect! Now what time is it? It is two o’clock. That gives me plenty of time to prepare for my date tonight, but first I need to clean up this mess.

The room gave off a bright blue colour from Rarity’s hora surrounding all the objects in the room. She carefully placed all of the objects back in their homes. It only took her about ten minutes. She then walked upstairs into her bathroom to get ready for tonight. She decided to take a bath first. She filled the tub with soothing warm water. She dipped her mane in the water letting it lose its perfect curls. She did the same with her tail. Since it was going to be a special night, she decided to use her expensive shampoo to give her mane and tail an extra bounce and extra shine to it. For her fur she used another shampoo to give it a nice subtle lavender scent. She stepped out of the bathtub and pulled out the plug and let the water drain. She carefully dried herself off as not to mess her mane up to much. She combed her mane and tail. She then prepared the curlers and started curling her mane and tail. She made sure that every strand was curled before moving on to her makeup. She used her brighter red lipstick. She then put on her fake lashes and applied mascara on her real ones. She applied her favourite blue eye shadow. She then applied lotion on her hooves. Just then, it was time to remove the curlers. She carefully pulled them out, not wanting to pull any of her precious mane or tail hairs. Perfect, she thought. All that was left was her perfume. She walked over to her bedside table and took out the perfume Spike enjoyed the most, the subtle scent of frosting. It was now five in the afternoon. Rarity walked downstairs and relaxed on the couch in wait for Spike’s arrival.

With that, Spike walked towards the library.

I can’t wait for tonight. I am going to prepare the best date Rarity has ever been on. I am going to make her favourite foods: cucumber sandwiches with the crusts cut off, home made salad with home made dressing, cupcakes and vanilla flavoured tea. That’ll be perfect! As for the location, it has to be somewhere special, I want it to be perfect. I’ll take her to the hill behind Sweet Apple Acres, one can see the beautiful sun set and it has a great view of the forest and Ponyville.

Just then Spike arrived at the library, he opened the door and was greeted by Twilight.

“Hey Spike, how was last night? Did you two you know?”

“What are you talking about?

“Did you two… mate?”

“What! No! Ew Twilight, No! We slept together but all we did was kiss and talked about how much we love each other.”

“Haha I was just kidding Spike! I’m glad to hear it went well. You two really deserve each other.”

“Thanks Twilight. What about you, how was your night?”

“It was great. I was finally able to sleep properly since there wasn’t a dragon snoring beside me.”

“Hey! For your information Rarity had great nights sleep, so there. And as a matter of fact it went so well, that we’re going on a date tonight!”

“Congratulations Spike! Where are you two doing?”

“I’m going to make us a picnic and we’re going to eat it on the hill behind Sweet Apple Acres. It has the perfect view of the sun set, of Ponyville and the forest. For the food I’m going to make: a home made salad with homemade dressing, cucumber sandwiches with the crusts cut off, home made cupcakes and the vanilla tea we have. It’ll be perfect!”

“Sounds like you have it all figured out. Well have a good time tonight, I’m going out to Zecora’s, she’s going to show me how she makes her special tea! If you plan on staying at Rarity’s tonight just leave me a note so I won’t worry about you tonight. Lastly if you need money to buy supplies, take some from my night table.”

“Ok Twi.”

“Bye Spike, enjoy your date tonight.”

“Bye Twi and thanks.”

Twilight walked off towards the forest. Spike went into the kitchen and went through it to make sure he had all the necessary items.

Looking good. We have all the necessary items. I’ll get the salad and dressing ready and I’ll add the dressing to the salad later.

Spike started by chopping the items for the salad. He then prepped the dressing, keeping it in a jar until later. He then followed by making the cupcakes. He made chocolate cupcakes with vanilla frosting.

“I’d better get cleaned up and ready for tonight, I’ll make the tea at the picnic spot and the sandwiches I’ll make before I leave.”

Spike walked upstairs into the bathroom. He again used his vanilla scented soap, combed his spikes and made sure his scales were shiny and sparkly and brushed his teeth. After he finished, he walked into the kitchen and looked at the time. It was now five thirty.

“I have just enough time to fill the kettle with water, get all the utensils out, get the salad and dressing out. Get the tea leaves and make the cucumber sandwiches.”

Spike quickly packed the items into the picnic basket. He made the sandwiches (making sure to cut off the crusts) and placed them in the basket. Spike walked outside locking the door behind him. He made it to Rarity’s by six o’clock on the dot. He knocked on the door excited for the night’s events.

There was a knock at the door.

“Coming!”

Rarity walked over to the door, excited to see what Spike had prepared for them. All she could think about on the way to the door was what Spike had planned for her that evening. Rarity reached the door and opened it happy to see Spike.

“Just on time Spike! Please come in, I just need to grab my coat and then we can go.”

“Sure thing my lady. Take your time.”

“Thanks Spike, I will be right back.”

Rarity kissed Spike on the lips causing him to blush. She walked upstairs into her bedroom. She grabbed the beautiful coat she designed herself. It was a magnificent purple coat, covered with diamonds, aqua marines and amethysts. She loved that coat and couldn’t wait to show Spike. She walked downstairs and saw Spike open his mouth in awe.

“What do you think Spike?” Rarity said while turning to show off the coat.

“It’s beautiful Rarity!” Spike said closing his mouth quickly, not wanting to offend Rarity.

“I made it myself. The inspiration came, when I looked in my chest of gems one day when I was looking for inspiration. I saw these gems and the idea came.”

Spike could not stop staring at her. She was beautiful, she was beautiful no matter what, but that coat made her look irresistible. She always knew how to make the perfect clothes.

“Let’s get going Spike. I am excited to see what you have planned for us.”

“I planned it to perfectly accommodate our love.”

Spike guided Rarity towards the spot he chose. As he was about to get the picnic ready, he got an idea in his head.

“Rarity, I want you to cover your eyes, it’s a surprise.”

“Alright Spike.” Rarity covered her eyes.

Thoughts of what Spike had for a surprise flooded her mind. Spike took out two blankets for them to sit on, making sure they were clean. He also pulled out the picnic blanket and food. He warmed up the tea water with his fire breath and poured the water into the cups that had tea bags in them already. He made sure everything was perfect before showing Rarity.

“Alright Rarity it’s ready.”

Rarity opened her eyes. She made a small shriek of joy. Her eyes started to water, she even started to blush.

“Spike you did all of this for us?”

“I did, you mean everything to me Rarity!”

Rarity hugged Spike and gave him a kiss on the lips.

“This is perfect!”

Spike guide Rarity onto her blanket. He started out by pulling out the sandwiches.

“Spike you cut off the crusts, how fancy of you.”

“Thanks. I remembered you liked sandwiches without the crust. And I wanted this to be perfect!”

“You did a great job Spike!”

The tea was now ready, Spike offered Rarity the tea.

“How many sugars would you like Rarity?”

“Two please.”

Spike used the tongs to pick up the sugar cubes.

“Here you go my lady.”

“Thanks you.”

“Here you go Rarity I made cupcakes with purple frosting, your favourite colour.”

“That’s lovely!” Rarity took a bite.

“Spike that’s amazing! Where did you get the recipe?”

“Pinkie Pie gave it to me. The only reason she gave it to me, was for this date. She refused every other time I asked her.”

“I must say, you did a better job than Pinkie Pie. You have to keep that between us.”

“My lips are sealed, and thank you.”

They finished up their cupcakes and sat down and continued to talk.

“That was amazing Spike! I can’t believe you got all of that ready with only one days notice.”

“Thanks Rarity. It was no problem, I’m used to making a meal at a fast pace since I make the meals for Twilight and I.”

The sun started to set.

“Look Rarity the sun setting.”

Rarity sat up.

“Spike it’s beautiful!” Rarity blushed not expecting Spike to kiss him on the lips.

“I love you Rarity!”

“I love you to Spike!”

*Three years later*

Spike was awoken by the sound of a sewing machine.

Ever since I moved in with Rarity I’ve noticed how much work she does when no one is around. That pony never gets any sleep.

Spike walked into Rarity’s sewing room.

“Don’t you ever take a break?”

“Spike you know this dress has to look perfect.”

“You know you look perfect already, and every dress looks perfect on you.”

“Spike… You always know what to say.”

Spike walked up to Rarity and gave her a passionate kiss on the lips.

“Alright Spike I’ll take a break, but only if you promise to help me on my dress later.”

“You don’t need to ask, I always helped you with your dresses in the past and I always will.”

Spike and Rarity walked into the living room. They continued to kiss passionately.

Spike woke up to the beautiful sunlight that morning. He looked at the beautiful Rarity still asleep. Spike decided to go downstairs and get breakfast ready and bring it to Rarity in bed. He decided to make carrot pancakes and blueberry oatmeal. He got both their food ready and brought it upstairs to the bedroom. Just as he walked in, Rarity woke up.

“Hi Rarity, breakfast is ready.”

“Oh Spike you didn’t have to do that.”

“Nonsense, you stayed up late last night making your dress. You deserve a break, besides we need to get ready for the Grand Galloping Gala…”

“I completely forgot about that, we have to hurry Spike!”

Rarity rushed to eat breakfast. Spike ate his fast as well; today was a special day he had planned for months. It had to go perfectly. After they finished their breakfast, Rarity ran into the bathroom and started getting ready for the night ahead. Spike on the other hand, got everything ready for the surprise that night.

The two were finished with ten minutes to spare.

“You look BEAUTIFUL Rarity!” Spike said causing Rarity to blush.

“Thank you Spike, you look good yourself.” This time it was Spike’s turn to blush.

“Thank you Rarity, I must say it was made perfectly by you.” Spike gave Rarity an elegant kiss on the lips.

“Oh Spike.” Rarity returned the kiss.

“I love that perfume your wearing, it suits you perfectly!”

“Oh Spike, you always know how to compliment a lady.”

They continued kissing passionately. Before they knew it their ride was there to bring them to the gala.

“It looks like it’s time to go my lady. Let me escort you.”

“What a gentleman sir Spike.”

Spike gently helped Rarity into the carriage.

“I am so glad you got us tickets Spike. I always enjoy going to the elegant parties in Canterlot.”

“Of course my lady, I would think of no one else to ask to accompany me.”

A few moments later they arrived in Canterlot. Spike help escort Rarity out of the carriage. They met up with the other five.

“Hey Twilight how ya doing without me in the library lately?”

“I’ve been doing fine Spike! Although I do miss having my buddy around.” Twilight said as she hugged Spike.

“I miss you to Twilight.” Spike returned the hug.

“Let us all get going, we don’t want to have to wait a long time to get in.”

The mane six and Spike walked in. It was beautiful to all of them. There were beautiful paintings made by the finest artists in Canterlot everywhere, impressive ice sculptures on every table, delicious food as well. They each went in a separate direction going to what they all wanted to do.

Rarity went to the elegant tables and started sampling the appetizers. Twilight went to greet the Princess, this time not staying next to her; she didn’t want to have to go through what happened last time. Pinkie Pie went into the ballroom and started to sing her silly songs. Fluttershy went into the garden to observe the animals, this time the animals went near her. Applejack went to the appetizer tables as well. Comparing every apple dish to hers. Rainbow Dash joined the wonderbolts, this time making sure to keep Spitfire’s attention. Spike, was getting everything ready for that night.

The gala was almost over. Spike walked over to Twilight.

“Is everything ready Twilight?”

“Yes it is Spike, good luck!”

“Thank you Twilight.” Spike hugged Twilight.

Spike made his way towards Rarity.

“Rarity I need you to come with me for a second.”

“Sure thing Spike.”

Spike brought Rarity onto the stage. They were now the centre of attention. Spike grabbed a microphone. Spike knelt down.

“Rarity you are the love of my life. You saved my life, you loved me through thick and thin, through the bad days and the good days. You make every day better by just being there. Rarity… Will you marry me?” Spike pulled out a three carrot diamond ring. Rarity’s eyes started to water.

“Yes Spike. I will!” Spike put the ring on her horn. It fitted beautifully. Everyone started clapping and cheering. Rarity and Spike held a long passionate kiss.

“I love you Rarity.”

“I love you Spike.”

Later that night they returned home and continued they’re lovely moment in the bedroom ;D.

*The day of the wedding*

“Relax Rarity you look perfect!”

“You really think so Twilight?  Is there anything in my teeth? Is my hair perfect? Is my dress to big?...”

“You look perfect Rarity, you better get out there, Spike is waiting.”

“Alright I am ready Twilight.”

Rarity started to walk down the aisle. Here comes the bride was being played on the piano. The CMC were hired as the flower girls. Sweetie Belle designed the dresses for them, against Rarity’s wishes. Rarity arrived at the alter.

“Do you Rarity take Spike to be your lawfully wedded stallion?”

“I do!”

“Do you Spike take Rarity to be your lawfully wedded mare?”

“I do!”

“I now pronounce you mare and stallion. You may kiss the bride.”

Spike gave Rarity a long deep kiss. At the wedding party, they danced almost the entire time. They were enjoying the night together, for that night three years ago, Rarity saved Spike’s life. And Spike ended up being the best part of her life. Rarity threw the bouquet into the crowd. This time Twilight caught it. That was the best night for the married couple.

*Twenty years later*

Spike and Rarity now lived in Canterlot. Rarity was retired and Spike was starting flight lesson school tomorrow. They lived happily ever after.

Then End?
