Spike goes over his thoughts and feelings as he spends time with his sickly love in her final moments.

All it takes is a leap of faith, one moment, one split second where things could either end horrible, or maybe... Give birth to the start of something new.

If you believe in what you think you can accomplish, then the whole wide world will be on your side.

Part II of 'The Sad Bundle'

High school can be tough; what with having to dodge bullies, ditzy clique sets, scene kids, meatheaded jocks and the other assorted characters that populate it, it can be a nightmare! That's especially true for the Cutie Mark Crusaders.

All that changes one Hearts and Hooves Day when Sweetie Belle finds out that someone is watching her. This someone isn't a new bully or perverted jock staring at her flank when he thinks she isn't looking. This someone is eloquent, poetic, and very much in love with her. But who could it be? Who could fall for someone so on the bottom of the high school social pyramid? More importantly, what will she do when she finds out?

WARNING: Contains minor spoilers for my other fics.

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.
