//------------------------------// // Spike and Rarity: Santa Baby Prt. 2 // Story: Hearts Warming Eve // by overlord-flinx //------------------------------// Around Rarity's shop, Rarity herself was frantically but with poise fixed up little messes while Spike sat off to the side watching. "Rarity... If you're busy..." "Busy? No, silly," Rarity hurriedly assured her guest while her horn's magic guided clusters of fabrics away into neat piles. "I'm just... sprucing up a bit. Ghastly mess, am I wrong?" Spike showed a sign that his uncertainty had left with that comment and he nodded. "I guess... But it's an organized mess. Like Twilight and her books." "Yes, Twilight..." a few more fabrics fell into place as Rarity glanced back at Spike curiously. "How is she? I saw the two of you coming home from -shopping was it?" "It wasn't really shopping, just a pick up of some books about how to make a proper tree..." Spike fell silent for a moment, pondering a bit before speaking up after noticing something. "Rarity?" "Yes Spike?" "Do you hear that music?" Sure enough, when Rarity offered a careful ear she could hear a faint jingle she remembered far too well. "Oh! I love this song! Do you mind if I sing a little?" Spike shook his head without a second's wait. Spikey-Wikey By: Rarity Performed: Rarity Spikey darling, I'll sing a little song and really not, Too long, You've been marvelous all year, Spikey-Wikey, so listen to my singin' tonight. Spike opened his mouth, red tints framed around his mouth as he tried to form a word. "Rarity?" "Hush Spike. It's time for the next line..." Spikey cutie, ignore the faults, let's waltz, Hoof in claw sometime, Spikey cutie, forget the why and dance this time. Spike could hardly keep himself on his chair as he scales began to go jittery from anxiety. "Do hang in there Spike... One more line." Spikey-Wikey, I'm pouring out my heart, through art, Accept my gift this year, Spikey-Wikey, let me give you something this year. "Cupid, why are you playing that box into the shop?" "I'm trying to make the tension stop!"
