With her dreams crushed after the horrible night at the Grand Galloping Gala, Rarity leaves her friends to sulk in peace and quiet. However she finds her hopes of being alone are shattered as her little "Shadow" known as Spike follows her to cheer her up. In result, it seems that this little dragon is more of a prince than one might expect.

Sparity OneShot, meant to be fluffy and pointless.

Each has had their own hardship to face. Each has an attachment they need to keep. And each has only one night left to make sure their feelings are known.

Twilight Sparkle is leaving for a year, to travel throughout the world and study with masters of magic scattered across Equestria. Spike, after an accident that put him in a strange position, has had to choose between his oldest friends, or the ones he's made over the years. Pinkie Pie is reacting more violently than any of her friends thought she would. And Rarity, all the while, is trying to deal with reemerging feelings that she thought she'd not needed.

With one night before Twilight's departure, the four try to make their last night together matter, each in their own way. And in the end, they will come out of it changed for the rest of their lives.

My one shot at a one-shot (oh god the puns!). I hope this is as good as I want it to be, which is selfish, but that's what this is about.

I do not own My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, yada yada yada, etcetera etcetera. I think you get the point, so I'll stop wasting your time and let you move on to the story.

It's been almost three months since Spike was cured of his werepony curse and things seem to be getting back to normal. Unbeknownst to him, however, Rarity has a surprise that will test his commitment to their relationship.

An unfortunate turn of events finds Spike changed into an Earth pony. Rarity unintentionally crushed his heart and now she has to fight hard to win back his trust, his friendship, and maybe something more.

When Spike begins drinking more heavily, he finds himself more and more depressed, that depression leads to a friendship turning into something more

As the years drew on, Spike's childish heart grew into that of a true adult, longing for the finer things in life; the finest things. He pursues his relationship with Rarity, but all does not go as planned.

Filled with anger and sorrow, Spike and Rarity fall away from one another. In his grief, Spike pursues new interests, and their friendship is in danger of never recovering.

But perhaps the truest words in life are these: you do not know what you had until you have lost it. Jealous and alone, finding no comfort in stallions she once loved, can Rarity reclaim her one chance at true love, before it is too late?

Spike would sneak out of the library every night and sit on the bridge between the town and the Everfree, just to think. More often then not, the night ends with him wallowing in self pity over the mare he love's. One night however, Rarity finds her 'Little Spikey Wikey' and she realises something of great value.

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.

Upon eavesdropping on a conversation between Rarity and Twilight Sparkle, Spike discovers what his "true love" really thinks of him, and after reminiscing on his thoughts about it, he slowly begins to drift away from his friends. With sorrow and despair in his heart, Spike runs away from home, and runs into an old enemy that tries to help him out.

However, after realizing what she has done, Rarity begins to realize and discover that she has feelings for Spike after all, but can she save him before it's too late?

Spike has just woken up from his hundred-year sleep and realized that none of his friends are around anymore. He is deeply stricken with grief. Can a letter from his wife Rarity, gifts from his friends, and a poem from Twilight Sparkle help ease the pain of their loss?

The cover picture was drawn by Azzurgil on deviant art (http://azzurgil.deviantart.com/). I really enjoyed her work because she does a lot of dragon art (which I am a huge fan of). This story was preread by Criticul94 and Taranasaurus0.0. Not only are these guysawesome prereaders, but they are great writers. Check their stuff out!

When I was writing this story I didn't mean for it to take the turn that it did, however a personal event that happened in my life made this what it is. I hope those that read it enjoy it.
