A minor accident at Sweet Apple Acres sends Big Macintosh to Ponyville in the middle of applebuck season. At first, things seem fine. But then some of the mares begin acting a little...oddly.

Then very oddly. Turns out every other stallion skipped town for a very good reason.

When your life is as dull a gray as the world that surrounds you, the mundanities can make it all seem meaningless. Sometimes all we need is a little color -- or six -- to reintroduce us to what truly makes life worth living.

(2nd Person Story story starring you and Pinkie Pie)

Synopsis: You couldn't help but fall in love with the life of the party when you moved to Ponyville. That hyperactive pink ball of energy is the kindest and most sweetest pony you've ever met. And you mean sweet in both senses of the word when you get involved in the book she's trying to write.

Author's Note: The Candy Sutra has helped me nail down the format I like and will become the staplehood for future projects. The Candy Sutra is a 2nd person story starring you and Pinkie Pie. It's both funny, sensual, and involves Pinkie Pie. Need I say more? And on one final note, this story marks the beginning of what I like to call 'the weave'. I decided to have my stories crossover into each other, bring back old characters, and actually meet 'yourself' from previous stories. As one reader put it '...it's like Quantum Leap, except with ponies.'

Side Note: A special and well deserved thanks goes out to tubular for his help critiquing and editing The Candy Sutra. Thanks to him, it's now 20% cooler. If you ever see him on the #equestria IRC, give him a pat on the back.

Inside the mind of Spike, there are doubts, fear, indecision, and loneliness. He longs for his true love, Rarity, to be his; but unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be the case. After a few years in solitude, he becomes a larger dragon whose size strikes fear into the hearts of Ponyville's citizens. (It doesn't take long for dragons to grow). Full of memories and sadness, he trudges away to Mount Dragon to live the rest of his life away. But something in his heart is calling him; beckoning him. He wants to give in, he wants to return; yet his inner concious tells him to only leave for food. He refuses to leave - until one day, he hears a familliar scream...

Author's notes:
If you're all going to favorite this, could you also take the time to hit the "Like" button as well? I like the amount of people that are adding this to his or her favorites, but I don't understand why the "likes" are so low if the favorites are so high.
I'm not looking for constructive critism. Don't give me any, if you please. I'm all for voicing opinions, but don't tell me what I should or shouldn't change. Writing stories is my downfall, but in this story, I just let my writing take control. Your opinions are valued, but I refuse to take orders.
If you want something to "help" with, look at my other story, Rarity's Little Disaster.

Sidenote: I appreciate the criticism I received prior to writing this from the people who said that it "couldn't be done", and that "Rarity and Spike being together just won't work out". If it weren't for you guys, I would never had been inspired to prove you wrong by creating this. Thanks! :D

Anyway, this is a cute romance fiction about my favorite - and really, the only normal - couple in Ponyville. Enjoy!

Spike is far too young for her, of course.
That means they'll have to keep it their sweet little secret.

Rarity's home makes a perfect love nest,
a wonderful place for a few hours of passionate kisses and gentle caresses in the dark.
