Your wish came true.
Chapter 16 - Hearts and hooves day (Part 3)
Previous ChapterNext ChapterWith your wings flapping, and your saddlebag filled with goodies, you reach your house, hopeful that Dashie won’t be inside. If she is, you have no idea how to explain that you don’t have her present yet- at least, you don’t want to give her it yet.
You open the door to the house and take a quickly look around. Nopony seems to be inside. You very carefully trot inside, trying not to make any sounds. You turn around and close the door behind you. You bring your head back around and are greeted by a very, very happy looking Rainbow Dash.
“Hey there, honeybun!”
“Oh, hey Dashie! Uhm, I got you some presents, but you have to close your eyes first, okay?”
“Hmm, alright.” She closes her eyes, she appears to be peaking but you don’t mind.
You open up your saddlebag and pull out the red dress from her old house, careful not to bring out the necklace, that one is a big surprise. “Well, I brought this back down, and I would really like you to wear it please, if that’s okay with you.”
“Anything for you Speedster, I haven’t seen this in… Well, years actually, thanks!”
“Oh, that isn’t your present, Dashie.” Her eyes widen with delight, “Your present is a surprise.”
“Oh wow, what are we doing tonight then?”
“Just go put the dress on and you shall see, won’t you?”
“Okay, I will be a few minutes, thanks again!”
“Not a problem.” You trot into the kitchen and sit in one of the chairs and start thinking to yourself while taking your saddlebag off. You quickly tuck the necklace under your right wing and put the rose in your teeth. ‘Darn it, I don’t even know where I am supposed to be going, Celestia never told me!’
“Oh, did I not?”
“Oh! I forgot you could do that, Celest.”
“Sorry, I can teleport you to the opening if you would like that, Speedster?”
“If you don’t mind,thanks.”
“Alright, when Rainbow Dash is ready, I will teleport you. In fact, it looks like she is already ready. Have fun!”
“I will Celest, thank you again.”
A white orb forms around you, slowly getting brighter, you notice Dashie walk inside, an orb forms around her as well. You both appear outside of the restaurant in a flash. As you try and take in the sheer scale of the restaurant you are absolutely amazed that you’ve never noticed it before. It has roughly 5 floors but with towers sticking out at the top, and one really large tower in the middle, maybe they are for VIP only. There are open balconies on each floor. Windows don’t seem to be a problem, as they seems to have so many, you can barely see any wall.
To your left, Dashie stands with you and her magnificent dress on, it’s a beautiful red with white fur and gems for the trim, it will look perfect with the necklace, you hand her the rose from your teeth, she squeals with delight, but she doesn’t eat it straight away. She puts it in her hair, just like a Human would, how strange. On your right, the pony who insulted you before seems to be eying you up and down, he looks like he possibly would like a fight, hopefully not, you don’t want to have to fight, and it’s not really your style.
Sir Destinceous trots over to you, a very mean look in his eyes, like fury has been burning inside of him for a very, very long time. “You!”
“Who? Me?” You retort, you already knew he meant you, but you want to mess with him, it’s going to be funny.
“You knew I was talking to you, you piece of scum!”
“Wow now, no need to get like that, we don’t want you embarrassing yourself now, do we?”
“Me? Embarrass myself? Are you crazy?! You already embarrassed me in the front of Princess Celestia and all of my friends!”
“Well, you shouldn’t be such a snob then, should you? Nopony likes a snob, after all.”
“I should buck you right in the face right now for what you’ve done to me, you lower class peasant!”
“Okay, you’ve really got me mad now.” You try move towards him more but Dashie holds you back, you give her a quick glance back so show her it’s okay and she lets go. “So, you want to buck me huh? You think you can take ME on?!” You flames are now starting to enlarge and grow quite fierce. “Do you honestly, believe that I am a peasant? That I can’t take anypony on? Well?” You feel something bubble up inside of you, like a large roar, “DO YOU!?” Everypony is now staring at you, Sir Destinceous is in shock, he just witnessed the royal Canterlot voice, or something almost perfectly similar. You are amazed yourself, how can you perform such a great power? Only an alicorn can do such a thing. He starts to back away slowly, then turns around and gallops off into the distance, you turn around and still notice everypony staring at you, Dashies eyes are wide with fright. “Dashie, I wasn’t going to hurt him, you know that, right?”
“Well yeah but… You just did the royal Canterlot voice! That’s impossible!”
“Well, I am just as confused as you, shall we go in?”
“Yeah, we should.”
You head inside, everypony is still staring at you, you don’t mind, except one of them is a waiter. He trots towards you, “Name?”
“I am Speedster, this is Rainbow Dash. Princess Celestia arranged a reservation for us?”
“Ah yes, right this way. You must be a very powerful person to get such a good seat in here.” The unicorn looks pleased to meet somepony.
“What do you mean?”
“Well, you got the top floor, the most prestigious view in all of Equestria, and not to mention you’re friends with Princess Celestia after all.”
“That isn’t the best view in all of Equestria.”
He seems shocked, as well as Dashie and they both halt in their tracks, “Then whatever could be the best sight?” He asks, bewildered.
“Dashie, of course.”
Dashies cheeks glow red with blush, “You sure about that?”
“Most positive.” You lean in and give her a kiss on the cheek.
The waiter smiles and looks back ahead of him, “Well, that’s cute. This way please.” As you continue into the restaurant, you come to an elevator like object. “Just step inside here please.” You both step inside and his horn starts to glow as he follows you in, it’s not a cramped room, enough to fit about eight ponies inside. “You may pick any seat, people prefer to sit on the balcony mainly, it’s the one with the excellent view, but of course, you have the best view in Equestria with you right now, don’t you?”
“Yes I do. We will take a balcony seat, thanks. Also, could we get two menus please?”
“Not a problem, I will be right over.”
“Thanks.” You both trot to the balcony and take a seat closest to the rail, to look out over Equestria; it’s quite an amazing sight. He has you there.
“Dashie, I have a present for you.”
“What is it?” Her eyes widen and a smile creeps up on her, almost stretching from ear to ear.
“Well, close your eyes. Properly this time, you little cheater, you.”
“Fineeee!”
Her eyes close and you un-tuck your wing. You carefully pull out the necklace and place it on the table. “Open.”
“Where- Oh my gosh!”
“I hope you like it.”
“Like it? I love it!” She quickly picks it up and put it on, puffing out her chest also to make herself look better, “Does it look good on me?”
“It looks perfect on you, Dashie. Then again, everything looks perfect on you.”
“Aww, you’re just saying that you big goof.”
“Nope, I mean it. Turn it over and look what’s on the back.”
She hastily turns it over and reads it aloud, “Forever yours, Speedster…” She looks back up at you, amazed and with such a big smile on her face. “Thank you so much Speedster, I will never, ever take this off.” She leans in and gives you a kiss, but on the lips this time.
