Hearts and Hooves Day One-Shots
#1: Twilight Sparkle X Flash Sentry
Ponyville. This quaint, little town has been the sight of many a feat throughout the last few years – Nightmare Moon's return, the revelation of Twilight Sparkle becoming an alicorn, the sight of an attack made by the Everfree Forest – and things cannot seem to stop peaking in this little town. Today in this little town, ponies of all kinds are bracing themselves for Hearts and Hooves Day, a day where feelings and emotions get poured out to that very special somepony.
Twilight Sparkle is the sight of plenty of ponies far and wide – some of them wanting the title of prince, namely since Twilight is a princess. She has had plenty of ponies ask if she would be their very special somepony, but Twilight has politely declined each request. In her heart, there is only one very special somepony fit for her, but there is only one problem: Twilight's very special somepony is over in the Crystal Empire, serving as Princess Cadance's Royal Guard.
Ever since the events preceding and proceeding the stolen crown incident, Twilight Sparkle has had him on her mind nearly every day, desperately wanting to see him once more. He has been on her mind for a while and has been meaning to ask him if he would be her very special somepony this Hearts and Hooves Day, but the timing can't come, seeing how they are too far away from each other.
In case you're wondering (though the title gives this obvious one away), Twilight Sparkle wants her very special somepony to be the Royal Pegasus Guard, Flash Sentry.
Right now, Twilight is looking out the window, up into the sky on this unusually warm Hearts and Hooves Day, fantasizing about Flash Sentry. She wanted to see him today, but knew that this would never pass because, as a member of the Royal Guard, it is his duty to place Princess Cadance and Prince Shining Armor first above all other things.
"Oh, Flash," Twilight tells nobody in particular, "how I wish you were here with me today."
Suddenly, a knock came at the front door to Twilight's giant oak tree home, namely, the Golden Oaks Library. Twilight calls out to Spike, her humble baby dragon assistant, to check to see who it is, of which he happily agrees.
Spike has been with Twilight his entire life, ever since he hatched from his purple spotted egg on the day Twilight tested to enter into Princess Celestia's School For Gifted Unicorns as a filly. He has seen Twilight's behavior these last few days and decided to surprise her this Hearts and Hooves Day. He heads downstairs to answer the front door and is happy to see that Twilight's surprise has arrived at the door.
Making no sounds, Spike asks Twilight if she could come downstairs for a quick second. Twilight, agreeing solemnly to come to Spike's aid, starts to climb down her stairs. She notices Spike standing in front of the front door peculiarly, giving Twilight the slight feeling that something is going on.
"What's going on, Spike?" She asks.
Spike smirks, opening the front door in the process. There, standing in the doorway for her was Flash Sentry himself. Twilight was honestly not expecting to see Flash standing before her in the doorway, or even seeing him here in Ponyville for that matter, but here he was.
"Flash," Twilight gasped, "why...why what a surprise! What are you doing here?"
"Princess Twilight," Flash smiled, showing Twilight a bouquet of roses in the process, "would you like to be my very special somepony on this Hearts and Hooves Day?"
Not even saying a word, Twilight accepted Flash's request to be his very special somepony as she grasped him with a very meaningful and emotional hug.
"My work here is done," Spike said as he left the two lovebirds alone to themselves.
