A Pink Spike :
It's fine Rarity, I understand. Spike said as he turned and as she tried to hug him yanked away and began running, tears rolling down his cheeks. He crashed through the front doors of the Boutique. Its fine he told himself, trying to wipe the tears from his face. But as fast as he could wipe them, they would reappear. Shaking his head and forcing himself to swallow the pain he decided he would go to the one place a smile could never cease to be.
That had been a week ago... Rarity and Spike had told nopony of the sad conclusion, thought he change in Spike did not go unnoticed, Applejack and Twilight the first day tried to find out what was wrong. When Spike lied and said he was aright Applejack had made it her near duty to find out what was wrong, but after tricking himself for so long he finally managed to trick her. But though he tricked them their was one pony that watched from afar, not saying anything but watching him with sad eyes, waiting for the right time to help. She went unnoticed by the other ponies, well her mission to help her friend did. but she did not act any different.
Present Time :
Glancing down as he sipped the jewel smoothie Spike tried to pretend he wasn't in pain by forcing a smile. It didn't really help considering the sad, pitying look that Rarity had given wouldn't leave his mind. He could still remember the first day he had seen her...looking into her beautiful blue eyes and-
"Spike!" Pinkie Pie shouted, happily tackling the surprised Spike. Letting out a 'oof' as Pinkie Pie knocked the breath out of him. She nuzzled his face flashing a wide smile. She wrapped him in a tight hug, her mane rubbing his face and forcing his face into a huge smile. "I sensed a sad pony in the area!" Her smile faded into a look of concern as she stared at Spike. "Though a sad dragon was very unexpected..." Spike tried to look away as she lifted his chin up and turned him back to her, her smile was back but her eyes were layered with concern. "You can tell me anything Spike...you don't have to hide..."
Pulling Spike softly to the back, Pinkie Pie held him tightly as he cried into her chest. Next to her lay a large pile of gems that she had gotten so she could give the saddened spike. Rubbing his back softly Pinkie Pie let Spike tell her what had happened with Rarity...though she had seen it all...
"Oh Spikey! Their will be another mare out there for you!" Pinkie Pie said softly nuzzling Spikes head as he wiped the remaining tears.
"B-but who? Rarity...I thought Rarity would be the one..." Spike let out a soft sigh.
"Well...maybe the mare is closer than you think..." Pinkie Pie's calm voice made Spike glance up her. Her cheeks had a surprising soft tinge of darker pink. "But you will never figure out if you stay here!" Pinkie Pie grabbed Spike's hand. "Cmon!"
Authors notes: Ah, Pinkie Pie...out of all the ponies...Except maybe Rainbow Dash...you'd figure you would be able to tell him...Soon enough I suppose...Read and enjoy!
