Spike awoke groggily, his eyes trailing to his tear and drool-stained pillow. It had taken him two hours to fall asleep last night, due to his break up with Pinkie Pie.

Feeling his now dried tears on his face, he smacked his lips and yawned. Looking at the clock,he saw it was nearly one o’ clock. He groaned, for he no longer had a job at Sugarcube Corner. He would be lying if he said he didn't regret what he did with Twilight, even if it meant hurting Pinkie Pie emotionally.

With a growl, he sat up, rubbing his face, intent on taking a shower to see what his agenda was for the day. Then a loud, rough knock on the front door snapped him out of his thought.

He heard Twilight trot towards the door and open it. She yelped in surprise when Rainbow Dash stomped in, her face red with rage.

The Pegasus looked over to Twilight and quickly asked, “Where is he?”

Twilight blinked, having no clue what she was talking about for a second. It clicked in her mind just an instant later, however, that Rainbow Dash was looking for Spike. “Rainbow, just hold on for a moment. No doubt you already heard-”

“I didn't ask for what the BUCK happened, Twilight! Pinkie told me everything. Now tell me, where is he?!” she shouted.

Twilight jumped at Rainbow's rising voice. Her eyes quickly shifted to the right of her, betraying Spike’s location on accident. Rainbow stepped farther into the room, but was intercepted by the unicorn.

“Rainbow, wait! Surely, we-”

“Just get out of the way, Twilight!” she screamed. Rainbow shoved Twilight’s shoulder hard to move her aside.

She trotted up the stairs and saw Spike just getting out of his bed. His eyes widened in fear of what Rainbow Dash would no doubt do to him.

“So you like cheating on loyal, honest mares, you bucking, bastard REPTILE?!” she yelled. Moving closer to him, she shoved a hoof hard into his jaw.

The dragon stumbled back in pain, clenching his jaw before she continued her assault.

“You think it’s funny just to senselessly buck another mare when you’re in a committed relationship, Spike?!” she screamed, swinging her left hoof hard into his stomach.

He groaned, but it was sharply cut off from a headbutt in the snout from the mare. Rainbow Dash quickly grabbed his arms in her wings, flipping him towards her backside. Rearing her back hooves, she slammed them into his chest with all her strength. Upon his release, he flew through the air and crashed hard onto the kitchen table, snapping it in half with his weight. Spike growled.

Rainbow Dash flapped her wings and flew into the air. Turning abruptly, she rushed at Spike when a curled claw slammed into her cheek, forcing her to tumble into the air. Her body slammed into the kitchen cabinets, her right wing flaring with pain. The Pegasus dropped to the ground. Spike swiftly stood and rushed over to her. Grabbing her head, he rammed it hard into the bottom cabinets three times, allowing a gash of blood to flow from her head. A firm hoof was punched into his left eye making him scream in pain. He held onto his injury before Rainbow Dash, with adrenaline coursing through her veins, rose onto her hooves.

Peewee tried to help his owner, flapping in front of her face, almost setting her mane on fire. Rainbow slapped his body with a wing into the fridge hard. He cawed in pain before slipping into unconsciousness.

With a roar of anger, Dash pounced onto Spike and punched him repeatedly in the face with her hooves, ignoring the blood that splattered onto her fur. Spike retailed by slamming a claw into her nose, breaking it with a snap. She ignored it and lifted both front hooves to smash into Spike’s face with all her might.

Without a second thought, Spike grabbed her outstretched wings with both claws and wrap them around her. Heaving, he threw her over his head, making Rainbow Dash’s body ram hard into the wall near the basement. She quickly unfurled her wings in pain and screamed, panting. She knew that the damned dragon had broken them.

Spike stood slowly, holding his left arm, thinking she may have broken it. His face was bruised and bloodied, his chest had a large bruise on it, and his left eye was swollen.

He gritted his fangs, growling and daring the injured mare to make another move. Rainbow Dash narrowed her eyes and charged at him, half of her mane soaked with blood. He dodged at the last second, grabbing her waist and lifting her into the air. He tossed her body to smash hard on the living room table, breaking it with her weight.

She groaned, rolling over to her side. The pony panted, standing up carefully and spitting out a glob of blood. Her wings were no doubt broken, as was her nose. Not to mention that she was bleeding from the blow Spike had delivered to her, but Rainbow Dash would be damned if she wouldn't defend her best friend from that traitor snake.

Her fur was painted red; either her own or Spike’s, it did not matter to her. Spike grasped his arm as pain coursed through it, proving only more that it was broken. His left eye swollen and his chest bruised from her assaults, his own scales were stained with blood, as well.

“You done yet, Rainbow Crash, or you wanna try for round two?!” Spike screamed.

She snapped, hearing her old nickname that taunted her since Flight School, and with a scream, she ran towards the reptile. Rainbow jumped into the air, about to punch him in the face, before Spike wrapped his tail around her neck, suspending her into the air. He spat in her face and lifted her up, slammed her body down with all his strength, and she felt a rib snap.

Weakly spitting out blood, and feeling a tooth fall out of her mouth, the Pegasus still stood in her weaken state. Spike growled, intent on still fighting, until Twilight separated them forcibly. Her eyes narrowed in rage at how she had even allowed any of this to happen.

“That is ENOUGH!” she screamed, her eyes ablaze with anger.

They were both held into the air with the unicorn’s magic, trying to catch their breath. Their adrenaline eventually faded from their body, especially once they felt the pain they had dealt towards the other in their fury.

Twilight looked at the destruction they had brought into her house, then to the injured phoenix on the ground. She turned her head to look at both of them, one at a time, then caused their bodies to fly and their heads to collide. They groaned in pain.

“I know you wanted to have a chat with him, Rainbow Dash, but to come into my house and beat the shit out of him? Are you SERIOUS?!” she screamed and dropped their bodies.

They stood slowly, wincing from the blood that dripped down. One looked at the other, both with a narrowing of their eyes, before Twilight forced their bodies apart again with her magic. Twilight let out a scream of outrage, forcing Rainbow Dash to hit her back hard close the fireplace and Spike to slam into the wall.

With a slow exhale of air, the unicorn brought them together once again and dropped them onto the ground with a thud. “Explain yourself, NOW!” Twilight ordered to Rainbow Dash.

Rainbow felt a bolt of pain travel up her right front hoof. She glared at Spike. “He cheated on Pinkie Pie, with YOU, actually. You honestly think I was going to let that slide in the slightest? Not a chance in Tartarus!” she answered, trying to catch her breath, blinking and shaking the blood that slid into her eyes.

Spike growled. She had attacked him without mercy, and in his own home, no less. He scoffed, holding his chest, hoping he did not break any bones before replying, “If you just would have stopped for a single second before attacking me, I could had told you that what Twilight and I did was a mistake. It meant nothing to me, and you had no right to beat the-”

“Wait, what?” Twilight whispered, looking at Spike with a frown of hurt.

Spike ignored her and shoved his snout into Rainbow’s own. She narrowed her eyes, and through gritted teeth, said, “You know WHAT?! If Twilight didn't stop me, I would have ripped your bucking head-”

“I'd like to see you try, you rainbow haired bitch. I’m a bucking dragon-”

“And I’m supposed to be scared of you?” she scoffed, trying to flap her wings, but pain jolted to her brain. Hissing, she shifted her stance. “Please, you’re nothing compared to your selfish, greedy species. Why-”

“Say one more word about my species, and I’ll rip your bucking head OFF!” Spike roared, spewing green flames that nearly burned her mane.

Rainbow backed away quickly, but she chuckled darkly. “Oh, is little baby brat getting angry with hearing about his monstrous, shitty-”

“ENOUGH!” Twilight shouted, forcing them to look at her with wide eyes. Her eyes were narrowed. “You have NO RIGHT entering and ruining my home, or attacking my mate-” she started coldly.

“Oh, I’m sorry, I had no idea we were even together, Twilight. Otherwise, I would've gotten you a damned gift. We slept together once, and it didn't mean any-”

“You two want to have your little spat, then fine by me. Kill each other, for all I care, but you crushed Pinkie Pie’s heart, Spike. You know she almost got fired from her job because of you? You’re an AWFUL dragon, and even more, you’re a terrible friend. And you,” Rainbow shouted, pointing a hoof at Twilight, whose eyes widened in surprise, “I can’t believe this SHIT, Twilight. You sleeping with Spike? Of ALL creatures, you knew he was with Pinkie Pie, and yet you turned your back on her for your own sexual pleasure. I swear to the Gods, if I wasn't so beat up already, I'd kick your ass, as well.”

Spike stepped in front of Twilight, his eyes narrowed in anger that she would threaten the mare. He hissed, “Try something, I dare you!”

Rainbow Dash snorted, chuckling humorlessly. Her look shifted from Spike to Twilight. “You're supposed to be our leader for the Elements of Harmony, a friend we could always put our trust in for anything. Yet you betray one of your best friends for this asshole right here?!” she shouted, gesturing at Spike with an angry swish of her tail.

“Some friend you are, Twilight. I came here to help Pinkie Pie out, my best friend for years, and she had her heart broken by a heartless, spineless reptile,” she growled, boring her eyes into Twilight's own. Then she looked back at Spike.

The dragon bared his fangs, and Rainbow's attention was quickly back on the mare.

“Everypony was HAPPY before this shit, Twilight. Everything was right in the world for once, and then you chose to bring out your 'oh so called' love for the dragon now? NOW, of all times, you couldn't keep your greedy hooves to yourself? You had to have another mare’s dragonfriend? Buck this, I’m done...I’m DONE, you hear me?!” she shouted, tears brimming on the edge of her eyes. She turned and slowly trotted with a limp towards the entrance.

“I don’t need this shit. I had enough of this. And Spike, if I ever see you near Pinkie Pie again, I’ll kill you, and I’ll bring Applejack with me. BUCK YOU BOTH! I HOPE YOU ENJOY TARTARUS TOGETHER, YOU FILTY BASTARDS!” she yelled before slamming the door closed with all her strength.

The house was silent as Twilight looked at the dragon that was holding his eye, a frown of hurt and pain on her features. She looked away from him with a sigh.

“Did you honestly think what happened between us was nothing, Spike? That I just slept with you out of jealously and hormones?” she whispered.

Spike grunted, wincing at his injury. Gazing at her, he said, “What happened between us WAS a mistake, Twi. I never meant to do what I did, and I regret it every second. I don’t LOVE you Twilight; I love Pinkie Pie…my heart belongs to her. When will you get that through your thick skull?”

She snorted. Her eyes narrowed. “But I LOVE you. I never gave anypony or creature my virginity. I honestly thought what we had was special, and now I find-”

“It was special, Twilight, and what happened last night was magical, but I never meant to give my own virginity to you. Damn it, Twi, I told you that you were like my sister, and-”

“Don’t give me any of that crap, Spike. If I was such family to you, than you wouldn't have slept with me. I gave my heart to you, and you tore it apart in front of me. I can’t believe you,” she snapped, tears on the corner of her eyes.

Spike curled his claws and turned away. “What do you want me to do? Lie to you by telling you what you want to hear? Telling you that my heart belongs all to you? I’m sorry, but you're wrong if you think I’m going to do that. You’re my best friend Twilight Sparkle, but I’m not IN love with you. I’m sorry,” he whispered.

The unicorn narrowed her eyes. “Rainbow was right. You’re a monster, just like the rest of your kind,” she spat.

He let out a harsh growl, but didn't respond, because she continued, “I want you to leave. I can’t deal with you right now. I just can’t. And you lost Pinkie because of what you allowed between us; I suggest you think about that.” She spoke in a soft tone despite her words.

With a snort, he turned away without a word, grabbing a cigarette in his tail that fell onto the couch from the fight. He walked towards the door, opening it and closing it with a loud slam. He exited the library the second that Twilight sat on her flank and wept.

Spike put his cigarette behind his right ear fin as he walked towards the stone bridge that brought back a hint of memories. He had almost fallen into the lake, right by here, with Rarity in his greed-inducing transformation when he was twelve. He sighed and leaned his arms on the edge, wanting to go to the hospital. Knowing that Rainbow Dash was no doubt there to get her own injures tended to, though, he didn't want to get into another fight with her. He was also aware that his wounds were not as severe as her own.

He was about to reach for his tobacco when he heard the sound of hooves trotting to the right of him. He looked to see Rarity coming towards him, her mouth pulled in a frown. She stood beside him, standing on her hind hooves. She rested her forehooves on the edge of the bridge and sighed.

Spike ignored her, looking to see the beautiful, clear blue sky above him. He shut his eyes before he heard Rarity speak, her voice proving she had been crying and trying to keep a natural tone.

“I heard what happened,” she said simply.

Spike glanced at his former crush, knowing not to speak as she continued, “Truth be told, I knew ahead of time when Pinkie told both Rainbow and I... why did you do it, Spike?”

He pondered that, knowing that there was no way he would be able to enjoy his silence in peace. “It—I made a mistake. What we did was nothing more than a-”

“Don’t lie to a lady, Spike. It’s not proper. Why did you do it? For sexual fulfillment, or because you truly are in love with Twilight? Rainbow Dash must have really done a number on you. It’s not like her, really. I tried to stop her, but she almost punched me in the snout. I’m honestly not sure why I even defended you. Pinkie Pie didn't say anything, but I could tell by the look in her eyes that she felt you deserved it,” she said, brushing a stand of her mane away from her eyes as she looked at Spike.

“Yeah, well, I broke both Rainbow’s wings, and maybe a rib after what she'd done to me.” He said this very placidly.

She gasped, her eyes broad in horror and shock. Ignoring her look, Spike continued, “If you're here to tell me I’m an awful dragon, I'm just saying that you're a bit too late,” he mumbled.

Rarity was silent for a few seconds before her lips fell into a scowl, her gaze falling to the lake. “I still am not quite clear as to WHY you would do such a—such a horrid deed, Spike. Pinkie Pie gave you her heart, you meant very much to her and yet you turned your back on her and slept with Twilight. From what Fluttershy told me, Applejack wanted to kick some sense into you, as well, but she managed to quell her rage, for now it seems. I would be on my guard, if I were you, though. And Rainbow didn't deserve to be beaten so harshly for defending her-”

“She ATTACKED ME!” Spike screamed.

Her eyes widened, and he rolled his own and reached to get his cigarette out from behind his right ear fin.

Rarity frowned. “Could you please not smoke that in my presence? That would be much apprenticed. We're having a serious conversation,” she calmly asked.

Scowling, he put it back. He sighed aloud, but quietly said, “What do you want me to say, Rarity? That what happened between me and Twi was gonna last forever? I never meant more than a kiss-”

“Oh, please, you—well, pardon the term—you bucked Twilight. You made love to her in a way that should've been for Pinkie Pie. Yet you gave it to the wrong mare...do you love Twilight Sparkle, Spike?” she asked.

He shook his head slowly.

“You're lying, Spike.”

“Excuse me? I think I would've known if I was in love with her. What happened between us was just a one-night stand, and I feel guilty about it,” he snapped.

She looked into his eyes with a blank expression. “Who are you trying to convince Spike: me or yourself? If it was truly a ‘one night’ stand, as you call it, then you would have not defended your actions, you would have causally explained that it meant nothing…just as you said I meant nothing to you.” She whispered as he sighed and looked towards the waters.

“You know…I was very depressed that night, thinking I would never find love again, that the baby dragon that fell in love-”

“I was only twelve, Rarity,” he grunted.

Rarity continued as if he had not interrupted her. “With me was still there. Truth be told, you were cute, and even now, you still are, but our friendship could go no farther than that—friendship. I was honestly thinking of hanging myself that night, after getting drunk, but Fluttershy had talked me out of it. We made l-”

“Don’t think I need to hear that from you, Rare,” Spike interrupted a bit coldly.

She narrowed her eyes and swished her tail, annoyed that he kept cutting into her part of their conversation. “Regardless, what you said to me that night, while it injured me more than any physical wound, reminded me of something. I don't need to impress anypony to find love. I just need to simply be myself. Spike, you had no right in what you done, and I find it horrible that you think it's ok just to-”

“For your information, Miss Fashionista, I’m an adult. So don’t treat me as if I’m some native, worthless-”

“No, you are NOT an adult, Spike. An adult would have taken responsibilities for their actions; you used Pinkie Pie and Twilight for your own sick pleasure. I’m sorry for being so cruel, but what I speak is the truth-”

“In your mind,” he whispered under his breath.

“And I believe that if you really think you’re an adult, then you need to act as one. You need to apologize to both mares and take what they say to heart. You need to grow up from this fantasy that everything can go your way just because two separate mares love you. Who do you chose: Pinkie Pie or Twilight Sparkle?” she questioned in a snappish tone.

He blinked, a bit impressed that she would be so…blunt.

With a scowl, he looked away from the water to the town and shrugged. “Why should it matter? They both hate me. It’s not like they would ever love me again after what I had said to them, Rarity. I--I just really need to be alone now,” he said in a softer tone.

She scoffed and rolled her eyes, turning her body. Standing on all four hooves, she said, “Spike, one day, you will have nothing, nopony but yourself and the Gods with you. Despite what you have done, Pinkie still loves you, but it’s up to you to go after who you think is right for you, the earth pony, or the unicorn. I, myself, even after all you had done to me, am still your friend, as well as Fluttershy, even though I know that, if she had the courage, she would kick your fangs in. But as of right now, you are tearing our friendship apart with your selfish desires, chose one soon….before they both pass away in front of your eyes,” she whispered. With a flip of her mane, she trotted away.

Spike sighed loudly, wanting to say a smart ass comment back to her. However, he knew she was only trying to help. It was odd that she had forgiven him. From what he could tell, and even from what he understood, was that she was on his side. Even after all he had done to her and the horrible words they said to one another, she was still there for him.

Plucking his cigarette from his right ear fin, he lit it then inhaled deeply. He exhaled out of his nose, thinking seriously of her words for a few minutes to himself. Then he heard a flutter of wings. Turning his head to the left, he saw, with surprise, that it was Raindrops.

“Scales! What’s up, you crazy bastard?” she greeted.

He chuckled and gave her a hoof—or in his case, claw bump. “What're you up to, Raindrops? Got out early I see, huh?” he said in a joking tone, taking another drag and blowing it out his mouth. He passed it to Raindrops.

She smirked, taking the butt in her mouth. She inhaled a deep puff of smoke, wrapping her tail around the cigarette and taking it out her mouth.

Raindrops exhaled it with a cough. “Yeah, I did. Boy, *cough* it took a little bit, but Derps finally got enough to get me out, though she had to ask her parents for help. They refused, at first, of course, but eventually, they gave in and I got out. Great news, huh? She’s at work right now, and so is her little sister, but I don’t got nothing but time on my hooves right now.” She pulled her head back to laugh, taking another drag.

She hoofed it back to Spike, and he grinned and nodded. “I hear you, Rain,” he answered. Then he saw something he hadn't noticed before, what with her orange prison suit when they first met: a small pair of black skeleton wings on her right shoulder. An idea came to him quickly.

“Hey, Rain…were you part of a gang before?” he asked slowly.

She took a quick glance at her tattoo before nodding. “Yep, I was a member of Shadow Wings, an all Pegasus group, about three years ago. I still do a few things for them every once in a while, but nothing like I did when I was younger, that’s for sure, you know?” The Pegasus smirked.

Spike's face fell, but nonetheless, he nodded his head. He took in more of his cigarette, then passed it over to her. She thanked him with a chuckle. She took another longer smoke, which annoyed Spike. It was almost as its end point. Once done, though, she gave it to Spike, who, with one last drag, breathed the smoke out his mouth. The remains were tossed into the lake.

Raindrops glimpsed over at him and, just then noticing how ruined her friend’s appearance was, whistled. “Damn, Spike, what the buck happened to you? Get in a fight with Diamond Dogs or some shit?” she asked.

He let out a hollow laugh before he replied. “Nah. Got into a fight with a former friend. If you think this is bad, you should look at her, I broke both her wings,” he answered.

Her eyes grew. She asked if it was serious, and when he nodded, she said, “Damn. Well, should we get you to the hospital, then?”

Spike shrugged. “Nope, I’m chill. Nothing I can’t handle, really,” he lied, glancing at her slowly.

She only scoffed but nodded. “Alright, then. Well, hey look. If you aren't doing shit, then how 'bout we go get a drink, on me?” asked Raindrops.

He paused a second. “I’m only sixteen. I won’t be able to legally have alcohol until I’m eighteen, Rain. You should know that,” Spike explained.

She rolled her eyes. “I know a friend. I’m sure he won’t mind. Now are you in, or not?” she challenged.

He thought hard of her proposal. Finally, he just shrugged and nodded in acceptance, asking what time it was. She answered that it was three p.m.

With nothing more to do then stare at the lake, the two walked into town. Raindrops lead Spike to the edge of the town into a bar known as ‘Eternal Night.' He opened the door for her. She gave a teasing grin, calling him a gentledrake before trotting inside.

The two saw that the bar, for obvious reasons, was empty, save for the bartender, a gray furred earth pony with a white colored mane and tail. His Cutie Mark was of a single wine glass, very suitable for the location.

He looked towards the two with bright blue eyes and smiled, stocking up on the alcohol behind the bar table. “Raindrops, glad to see you got out of that hellhole girl .Great to see you again.” He laughed.

She smirked and sat on a bar stool, waiting until Spike joined her to speak. “You know me, Ruby, just doing all I can staying out of trouble unless it comes after me.” She gave a curt laugh before turning to Spike.

“This is an old friend of mine from high school, Ruby Ports. Ruby, this is Spike. He-”

“The Crystal Savior. By Celestia’s flaming tits, I would've never thought to meet you before. Welcome, lad, welcome.” He guffawed as he shook Spike’s claw.

The drake smiled and chuckled nervously.

“Hey, Rubs, you think you could hook me and my friend up with something good? Boy has had a rough day, you heard me?” she asked.

His smile and nod were his answers. Raindrops leaned over to the bartender and whispered something into his left ear. He chuckled and went to get them their drinks.

“Ruby here doesn’t mind that you’re not old enough, Scales. Technically, you’re not even a teenager to ponies, but it’s all good.” Raindrops smirked before their drinks were given to them.

Spike was given a glass of hard cider, while Ruby Ports hoofed Raindrops a small bag with some green herbs. Spike rose an eyebrow, eventually shrugging and gripping the handle of his alcohol. He took a big swallow, coughing as the burn ran down his throat, making Raindrops laugh hard.

“Ah, you’re a riot, Spike. Gods, I love hanging out with you.” She smirked, taking a large swallow of her own drink, then brought out a small white paper from inside her tail. Opening the bag, she got out a small amount and put it over the paper. She rolled it, then carefully licked it. When it was ready, she took a match Ruby Ports gave her, and lit the tip of the substance.

Taking a large drag, she took it out her mouth and coughed, blowing out white smoke. With a sigh of content, she said, “Damn, that’s the shit. You want a hit of this Hay Weed, Spike?” She showed the reptile the drug.

He slowly blinked, never thinking that Raindrops would be one for getting high, let alone offer him any. However, he just shrugged and gently took it before taking a small drag, completely unaware of the power it held. Once his lungs were hit hard, the drug caused him to have a coughing fit before exhaling a cloud of white smoke.

Raindrops laughed so hard, she had tears in her eyes and almost fell off her seat. Ruby snorted with a shake of his head. “We got a virgin toker here, Ruby. That’s funny as BUCK!” she said through her snickering.

Spike scowled before taking a bigger drag and exhaled it out his nose. He thumped his chest when he coughed harshly. Raindrops took it from him and took another puff.

The two sat and kept passing the joint around. Spike’s glass of cider was almost empty, and Raindrops was on her second, half empty glass.

“Damn, we—we need to chill much more, Scales.” Raindrops giggled from the influence of alcohol and Hay Weed.

Spike only nodded, drowning his glass before asking for another.

“Why...why the buck are we here so early?” he asked.

She let out another short chuckle before replying that she, and by extension himself, was an exception to get a drink. He burst into laughter hard enough to cause him to fall out of his chair; he never had Hay Weed, as if this didn't make it obvious. She rolled her eyes.

“You’re such a crazy dragon, Spike.” She snickered, helping him up. She asked what time it was, and Ruby replied that it was already eight p.m.

Spike blinked in shock, his eyes red from the effects of the drug. Raindrops was the same; Ruby Ports shook his head and grinned.

After nearly two more hours, more costumers came into the bar. Both the pony and drake ignored them, though, rolling up their third paper of Hay Weed. Spike was given his third glass of Hard Cider, while Raindrops was already on her fifth. The two were drunk and high out of their minds, annoying the other ponies who had come in, including Lyra Heartstrings with her marefriend, Bon-Bon, and Golden Harvest, who glared at Raindrops. The drunk Pegasus, again, took no notice of this.

“Alright, you two, think you had enough of the drug. I’ll get you another drink if you want, though,” Ruby ordered lightly to Spike and Raindrops.

Spike looked at him once and laughed in such an out of control, impromptu manner that he started coughing. Ruby Ports just rolled his eyes.

“He’s right, Scales. Cool it down with the weed. C'mon, drown that shit so you can get another.” She grinned.

Spike shook his head to clear his thoughts. With a loud sigh, he drank the rest of his alcohol.

The two were silent as they heard music being played behind them from a unicorn mare with an electric blue mane. Purple shades covered her eyes as she spun an upbeat hip-hop record on her turn tables, making many of the drunk ponies dance. Spike ignored this, but Raindrops slightly shifted in her seat, as if she wanted to dance.

“You know, Spike...shit, if I wasn't already in a relationship, I would make a move on you, then take you to the bathroom and buck your brains out,” she whispered into his right ear fin.

Grinning, he let out a little chuckle. “Don’t see your marefriend here now, do you? Why not give a little one to see if you want the whole dragon?” The dragon winked.

She laughed hard, then put an arm over his shoulders. “Maybe I will,” she whispered huskily, slowly leaning her head towards Spike’s own. Their faces were inches from the other when a loud voice called out her name.

The two jumped back and fell from their stools.

“Raindrops, finally! I was wondering where you were for the past two hours. Hi, Ruby,” a pegasus mare called to the bartender. Her golden mane flashing in the bright lights, she walked toward the two. Her golden eyes looked in different directions, the right towards the three and the left looking to the far left.

“H-hey, Derps. Spike, this is,” Raindrops introduced between snickers, wrapping both hooves around the mare, who winced from Raindrop's alcoholic breath, “this is my marefriend, Dizzy Cloves.” She laughed making Derpy roll her eyes.

“It’s Derpy Hooves, Hun. And Spike knows me, don’t you Scales?” She smiled warmly, glancing Spike.

His eyes were wide; he swore a pile of ashes with hay on top was talking to him. He nodded drunkenly before asking, with a grin, “Y-yeah, I...know you, Ditzy, how are you?”

She laughed before replying. “Fine. Got annoyed with Rain here sneaking off, but I should've known she'd be at a bar. Gods help her if she had done something insane, right? I... didn't know you were old enough to drink,” she said .

Spike nodded, but then he shook his head. He stuck his tongue out. “Neither did I,” he joked.

Derpy blinked, shaking her head and gently taking Raindrops from her chair. She said goodbye to Ruby and Spike, as Raindrops screamed bye to the purple cupcake, who must have been Spike making him laugh before he stood from his chair, and stumbling out the door he vomited on the side of the bar before walking drunk towards his home.

It took what seemed to Spike years to get home, but in reality, it was only forty minutes. He stood outside of the entrance to his house, staring at the door for the past twenty minutes when he saw the handle. He opened it. He didn't expect to see Twilight at the kitchen table, with a glass of mint tea in her hooves.

She turned around, her face of concern changing to anger. Standing from her seat, she stomped towards Spike, who leaned on her neck with a slight giggle.

“Where the BUCK was you, mister? It’s almost twelve o’ clock! What the hay have you—Spike, are you drunk?” she gasped in horror.

He burped and shook his head before nodding.

“No….you're just seeing things, Twilight…Flopple,” he muttered with a slur. He chuckled under his claws, and kissed her neck. “I’m home, baby.” He giggled.

She frowned and narrowed her eyes, pushing him away. “I’m not your baby, according to you, Spike.” she spoke with a hint of anger.

He scoffed. “I said I was sorry. I never meant to burn that book, and it was an accident, I think,” he slurred.

Letting out a sigh, Twilight dragged him from the entrance to the living room couch. The unicorn rested him down as he kept licking her neck causing her to giggle before she pulled away with a huff.

“Get some rest Spike; we got a long day ahead of us tomorrow.” She said softly as he grabbed her tail when she turned to trot away.

“What’s wrong with you, Twi? Twi-”

“Twilight, Spike…that’s my name,” she said.

He chuckled, but then a serious expression appeared on his drunken face. “Seriously, what’s wrong, Twilight? C'mon, you can tell me. I can keep a…a secret,” he said slowly.

She frowned. Sighing, she planted a kiss on his lips lightly. There was no passion in it, however, with him being drunk and high off his ass.

“You really want to know, Spike?” she whispered.

Spike nodded, giving him her full attention before it was taken off of her and fell onto her horn...again.

Twilight sighed loudly, tears at the edge of her eyes. She kissed him again, and looking into his emerald colored eyes, spoke as soft as she could to the drunken dragon. A single tear trailed down her right eye.

“I’m pregnant.”
