TW: Eating Disorders and mentions of death

Spike's feelings for Rarity have grown stronger over the years. He feels like Rarity is just ignoring his feelings, for Spike, this feeling like rejection. This causes minor depression in the little dragon, but as the 'rejection' continues, it could lead to 'life-threatening depression.

Fluttershy makes a few appearances.

After another failed attempt to get Rarity to notice him, Spike is left with no other choice but to call in a favor from one of his old friends Wishful Thinking and wish himself a way to her heart. Unfortunately, Wishful's magic has a price, usually on Wishful himself.

Can Spike deal with what his wish has caused to happen to his friend? Can Wishful Thinking even survive two days without a mare trying to beat the snot out of him? Read on and find out.

A/N: This was my first Fanfic in a long time and my first pony fanfic in general. So issues and continuity may have shown up and your free to point them out for me to fix.

Spike was tired of hearing the tales of Rarity's coltfriends, and how they amaze her. Going home sad and broken, he found a black notebook that granted him the power to kill anypony as long as he had their name and face. He made a steely resolve to protect Rarity... at any cost.

Entry to National Pony Writing Month.

At her boutique, a dragon was always there, assisting all he can. She sees how hard he tries. She notices these little things that the gentledrake does. Ear-to-ear smile whenever he's around or near her, his mood seems to light up whenever she looks at him. Over the years, they've become stronger, happening more often. These are all very clear to her and she knows how he feels about her. The only question is... Does she feel the same?

Basic idea by Rated Ponystar

Rarity discovers that her supply of gems is awfully low, and it probably didn't help that she used a lot of them just the other day in designing a new dress. She needs more gems if she's ever going to finish the new clothing line she already designed. Yet, most caves in Ponyville she's already been to. Determined to find more gems than before, she will go to a cave far from Ponyville. She did mention it to her other friends, but it seemed they were too busy to pay attention. Hmph. She invites Spike along like last time so that the two of them can gather enough gems for her new clothing line. Even though she wanted to gather more gems than that...

Rarity and Spike travels to the cave, but will discover more than just gems. Within the cave, unknown to Rarity before she traveled there, many bat ponies migrated there. It was that time of year, yet one bat pony is left behind. She will need their help if she is going to return to her colony, or ever face them, again. Not only that, she will need their friendship if she is ever going to do either. Will Rarity and Spike be able to help her? Why was the bat pony left behind? And, why didn't Rarity's friends tag along for the ride? -- Stay tuned in to find out!

--- Note: If readers are hoping that the romance is between Spike and Rarity, it's not. The romance is between two other ponies, yet I will go into a little for Rarity and Spike. ---
