On the third day of Christmas we...
I was laying in my bed, just one year, four months before, a box arrived on Fluttershy's door step, Apple jack, Rainbow dash, Rarity and I took it upon ourselves to raise the little fillies.
The filly was sleeping in a crib next to my bed, this would be the first Christmas I'd never be able to go to my family's Christmas party.
I made up an excuses why I'd not hung out with the family as of late, I was upset, just a bit, because Goldy, Star swirl, and Solena had just started talking and walking, and I'd miss their third Christmas!
But, I also was very Exited! This would be my little Star's second Christmas!
Speaking of her, she stirred in bed and let out whines, she was much gentler and quitter than the other three girls, Darling, Dashin, and Carmel Apple.
"Hey, sweetie, you wake up?" I cooed at the girl who in turn babbled 'mama' cutely.
I picked her up and walked out of my room and into the main area of the Basement at Big Macintosh and Fluttershy's place, because of the fillies, we lived in their basement.
I walked over to the kitchenette and picked up two Sugar, fancy sugar cookies for Star and I. She chewed, or at least tried to chew on her cookie, and we ate. "Dimond!" Rarity hissed at me, as we took another bite from the cookies.
"Dimond! I made those for Blaze's military charity banquet!" She growled, I sat Star on the counter and looked at my cookie with wide eyes.
No wonder they were so fancy! They had candies that looked like gems, and were in very enteric designs. I gulped, as Rarity just glared at me.
"Oooooooooooooh... Can't you make some more?" I asked as Rarity's hands glowed with magic. "It took me a week... to... make... each... candy... and... three... hours... to... make... those... cookies! and that's not counting the decorating!" Now Rarity was trying to hit me with gems, Thankfully I was able to dodge them. Barely.
"Hey, Rare's! is my tux ready?" Blaze asked coming down the steps. He and Ice knew about the foals since they dated Rainbow and Rarity.
We each stopped mid-dodge mid-attack when he came down stairs. "What, in the WHAT? Happened here?!"
"She ate a cookie!"
"I didn't know!"
We said at the same time, he rubbed the bridge of his nose. "Dimond, I swear you've done this since we were kids! Just-just... I don't know!" Blaze yelled.
Blaze then turned to Rarity and Smiled sorely. "It's ok, 'sides... Ice is bringing his 'famous icicles' so I'm good."
They walked into Rarity's Room, where Darling lay in her crib. "Ma-ma! 'laze!" She squealed happily.
"Yes! That I am my sweet little Darling!" Blaze said picking the girl and twirling her around. She giggled happily at this.
"Here's your Tux love." Rarity said handing him the new Red Tux and a small box rested on the top.
"Thanks! What's this?" He asked opening the box, to reveal something that, he hadn't seen for years.
"Is this..." He trails off.
It was a ruby cross, with flames coming off of it. But that wasn't what made it so Special. Sunset had broke it long ago when they were still in high school. She had smashed the pendant. Rarity had picked up the smashed gem bits and had worked for years to put them back together.
He changed from his jeans and hoodie into the bright red tux, and fixed the pin on his shirt.
"How do I look Rare's?" He asked. "Very good Hot stuff." She whispered and pointed up at the mistletoe above them.
He looked down at her and wrapped his arms around her, and she her arms around his neck.
Then he leaned down and she stood up on her tip toe's, then they shared a sweet Christmas kiss.
