Chapter one- When a day turns into a week
Chapter one- When a day turns into a week
"You can't just read books again Twilight" Spike sighed, holding a large amount of books as twilight levitated more onto the pile in spike's arms "I told you spike, i don't have to celebrate Hearts and Hooves Day." Twilight said with confidence, ' Who needs a special somepony? Not me.' She thought. " I bet if you give it chance you'd really enjoy yourself and i bet many ponies would want to spend hearts and hooves day with you!" Spike attempted to change her mind about the whole thing, immediately pink circles appeared on her cheek as she pushed a book into its place along with her collection , who knows how many book she owned.
"I guess i can't get you to change your mind." Spike mumbled in defeat , as he tripped over , dropping the staggering pile of books "Oh Spike!" Twilight groaned , her wings flapping once angrily "S-sorry Twilight." He apologized managing to find his way out the flow of books , a book tilted ' Baby Dragons' opened like a hat on his head "Oh Spike." Twilight giggled and began picking up the books with her number one assistant.
"I-i erm." Fluttershy muttered , trying to hide a velvet card that had bright Hearts on it and writing in font along the lines of: ' Will you be my special somepony?' "I can...explain?" She smiled at the dragonnuqes she had for company , who had discovered the card and immediately wanted to know who it was for. "Say no more Fluttershy. " He sighed , waving his paw dismissive "Oh Discord, I'm sorry , I would tell you ..but i just can't." She played with her hooves with embarrassment "I already know." He chuckled "W-what?....Discord!" She fumed at him and quickly hid the card where his eyes could not find it "I'm Joking. You caught me before i could read it. For Hearts and Hooves Day, is it?" He grinned widely , pretending to bat his eyelashes. "Y-yes." She mumbled , "I'm sorry, i didn't quite get that." He held his paw to his ear , awaiting her to answer louder "Yes." She folded her hooves and glared at him."Now i just have to find your card and see how you like it." Fluttershy giggled and flutter to the ground , a carrot in her hoof that her white bunny Angel was exaggerating for "Well i suppose you'll be looking for awhile then." Discord looked away and began starting out one of Fluttershy's home windows "Oh, You don't have anypony to spend Hearts and Hooves Day with?" She asked softly knowing that he might not want to stay on the subject "...No." He hissed , causing Fluttershy to back away a little "...I'm sorry about that Discord. It's still two days away, you never know you might-" "I doubt that. Two Days Flutttershy, Two Days." He informed her harshly, Two days isn't a lot of time after all.
"Do you think she'll like it?" Spike asked Twilight , as she sat on her bed , her head in a book "Yes, I'm sure she will love it. You do give her one every year, i bet she loves it even more than last year." twilight rolled her eyes a grin on her muzzle, Spike's admiration and unmaintainable love for Rarity amused her, A baby Dragon in love with a unicorn? Not something you see everyday. Although Twilight felt sorry for her baby dragon because she had the knowledge that Rarity may not ever return the love, Rarity did love the dragon but not in that way. Spike pressed the card against his chest as he fascinated of the mare he desired, "I just want you find somepony special Twilight, Not sit indoors and surround your self in the books." Spike swung his legs on the mare's violet/dark blue bed, "I told you Spike, i am perfectly happy reading my books." twilight lied , hoping that Spike would finally leave the subject alone but then again, she had always been a terrible liar.
"Well, i have to go now. But I'll be back later on, okay? Clean the library , will you Spike?" Twilight asked kindly as she prepared her bag and opened the door with her Alicorn magic "Where are you going?" Spike accompanied her side until they reached the door "Mayor Mare asked that i prepared decorations for Hearts and Hooves Day." She levitated a To-do list and pointed at the book shelf "Now , will you clean the library or not?" He grumbled a "Fine" and just before Twilight stepped out the library, Spike gripped her hoof "But won't you need help organizing everything?" She shook her head "I've got just the dragonnuqes who could help me out." Twilight smiled , her library door shut and she made her way.
"Well i need to give this to the pony it is for." Fluttershy said, grabbing the card from behind a flower pot "Can't you just mail it?" Discord asked stretching on her couch "The new mail pony ..isn't..as great at the job" Her eyes darted to the ground as she referred to Derpy. "Besides , He only lives at Sweet Apple Acres." She quickly realized she had given everything away and transcended to a bright pink "Oh ho , i see who it is!" Discord flew off the couch and poked the butter mare's nose "Big Macintosh , is it now?" He chuckled "Oh fine......it him, okay?!" She covered her face, trying to cover the pink blush on her. "I'm leaving before you embarrass me anymore." Fluttershy huffed , flying out of her Home, Discord following behind her "Why don't you see Twilight? I heard she needs a hoof-" Discord raised an eyebrow at her , signaling to remember he didn't have hooves "Well a Talon or Paw in your case, with Hearts and Hooves day decorations. Why don't you help her?" Fluttershy suggested, trying to keep him away from her for the day so that she could deliver the card in peace. "Not really up for Icky and Slushy Romance decorations. But i might as well to pass the time." Discord sighed and bid fluttershy goodbye as they made their separate ways.
Twilight trotted around in Ponyville Park , her to- do list levitated in front of her muzzle , " Never stop reading do you?" A familiar dragonnuqes voice came from her side , "Do you never say Hello Discord?" She jumped and placed the list back her bag with her magic "Hello." He chuckled "I'm guessing you heard that i needed help with organizing, Hmm?" She elbowed him lightly "Y-yes. Seeing as i have nothing better to do." He flexed his wings and returned the elbow, except slightly knocking her off her hooves "Good to know you want to spend time with me." she rolled her violet eyes began trotting again.
Two weeks after Twilight's coronation, life returned to normal and Twilight finally got to read her beloved books again and be the egghead her friends know and love. Discord had settled in his own house in ponyville, which shocked Twilight and her friends , wouldn't he have rather stayed in canterlot so that therefore Princess Celestia could have his magic on hiatus? And of course his house constantly span, he had to have some chaos of his own. .Hearts and Hooves day was coming along and the excitement of spending time with their loved ones to those who had a special somepony came to the ponies and the misery to those who had no choice but to spend it alone came to ponies, relevant to a lavender mare and a certain dragonnuqes.
"Answer me this, Twilight sparkle, Why only a day for one of the most loved of celebrations?" Discord and Twilight has begun small chit-chat as Twilight trotted with Discord flying by her side "I'm not too sure about that myself, it would be nice to have a couple of more days, well to the ponies who have somepony to spend it with." Twilight sighed , remembering the conversation she had already about this, "Ah, same page then." He picked up that , she too had no special somepony. But why? , the thought skipped through his mind, she was beautiful, intelligent and many more things that he could name, so why was nopony generally wanting to spending time with her on Hearts and Hooves day? Maybe she didn't want anypony special. Discord quickly came to a conclusion, trying to shake off the thoughts and stop anything feelings surfacing or in his case, resurfacing. Twilight glanced at Discord and caught that he was deep in thought , their eyes met and she smiled warmly towards him "So...First Hearts and Hooves Day then?" "M-hm. Always too caught up in my Chaos for general romance." He waved his paw sluggishly the topic was going too far for his liking. "I'm the same, expect not chaos, Books for me." She giggled knowing he would be thinking egghead' in his mind "I stand correct, I think your in love with them books you know." He chuckled poking her shoulder "You could try them, you never know , you might like them" She stopped and they both immediately burst out with laughter, The Lord of Reading, perfect title.
"I shouldn't really tell you this..but i made no promise!" Discord began, causing Twilight to turn her head from in front of her to His eyes "Fluttershy is giving a Hearts and Hooves day card to.." He quickly checked to see no Fluttershy in sight "Big Macintosh." He finished causing Twilight's eyes to widen with shock "Really?" She gasped "Well i never knew she had the likes for Applejack's brother. Then again they're both shy..so i guess it is kinda natural." the thought of Fluttershy and Big Mac actually caused her to smile, they were both shy and if they met chances are they could get along really well, maybe Fluttershy noticed this and fell in pure awe of them to in a relationship or it's because she thought he was drop dead attractive. But that was high unlikely, fluttershy testes personality rather than beauty.
"I never did ask, but..why do you not have a special somepony?" the Spirit pondered, knowing she may lie or not give an answer "What do you mean?" Twilight asked, a bit confused on what he wanted for an answer "Well, i don't see why nopony would want to spend time with you.." Twilight blushed and smiled shyly at his words, her embarrassment making him snigger. "Nopony has asked me Discord, It's plain as paper." Discord observed her for a second "I see..." his voice trailed, why did he, The Master of Chaos, want to know about Twilight Sparkle's Romance anyway? They reached Mayor Mare's home and both shook of the conversation they just had, Twilight realizing she wanted find out more about Discord or spend time with him than ever, she enjoyed Discord's company even if he caused a smudge of Chaos. "Ah Twilight! I only have a few things your you to do , everything is nearly sorted! You two must have took the long way because your very late!" Mayor Mare smiled at the two and eyed them carefully , "Late?! Oh I'm sorry Mayor, i guess i lock track of time!" Twilight pressed a hoof on her temple , Discord grinned away as Twilight instantly started to become paranoid "I see~" Mayor Mare chuckled, winking at the lavender mare and then her attention turning to discord. Twilight followed the mare's eyes and picked up what she was hinting "Oh no we are-" "Opps. i guess me and Twilight can't keep our selves off each other!" He nudged her playfully, teasing her with his smug grin.
"Again I'm sorry. Now what would you like my to do-" " Why is this celebration on one day?" Discord interrupted Twilight, again. "I'm Not too sure, We just have is it as a day Discord." The Mayor puzzled , she didn't expect the question because there was no answer, "It should be a week." He hissed folding his paw and talon " I suppose it would be better for most ponies, and we have bought a lot of decorations this year. More than we needed. I guess we could arrange it for a week." The mayor came to a end , leaving Twilight dumbfounded , Discord had gotten his way so easily...How?! Twilight quickly darted her eyes at Discord's checking he wasn't hypothesizing her "What?" Discord whispered innocently, she grumbled quietly at him and then turned back to the mare. "So ..should i come back tomorrow? To give you time to arrange the times?!" Twilight asked raising her hoof "Yes, thank you. Well i must go now then, Busy, busy ,busy" The mayor chirped , shutting her door leaving the fumed alicorn and smirking dragonnuqes alone. "I can't believe you." The element of magic began trotting away turning her back from Discord "Oh Twilight Sparkle, you said it yourself." he flew beside her traveling at the same speed as her " 'it would be nice to have a couple of more days'" he mimicked her tone "For others, Yes." she snapped "Why ask for more days , if your just going to spend them alone!" Discord stopped and frowned "I was just thinking of others and this is how i am thanked?!" He growled. Twilight stopped and realized how silly she sounded, Yes, she might be alone but it would give Fluttershy and Big Mac or any of her friends more time with their Special some ponies and she was caught up , worrying she would be alone for a week."I-I'm sorry, i just don't want to spend a week alone." she admitted, "Neither do i...Maybe we can spend time together!" He suggested his frown turning into a wide smile "Just as friends through." She added, not knowing herself if she was lying or not "Fine, It's a date~" Discord sing sang flashing himself , his laugh decreasing to hear "Ugh, Chaos." Twilight rolled her eyes, trying to hide her smile.
Author's Note
Honestly, I'm not proud of this chapter. I feel it rushes into things too quickly but I'm a person who likes to get to write the good fluff parts! Not much of the Mane six but you will see you soon. I'm open to Help and criticism just don't be a bitch about it.
