This story is a sequel to Disparity

Last night the impossible happened: Spike asked Rarity to be his special somepony for Hearts and Hooves Day, and she accepted. So what if it took a magic disaster to seal the deal? The most romantic day of the year, and Spike’s life, is about to begin. He’s dreamed of this one chance to win Rarity’s heart for years, and nothing is going to stand in his way; not even Rarity’s strange emotional jumps between happiness and panic.

Although this is technically a sequel, reading Disparity isn't necessary to enjoy what follows.

Spike wakes up on the side of an unfamiliar road, with only a confusing memory of the night before and a very unspecific note in his hand. Following the road, he finds himself in the town of Dragonsville, a rural town in the direct center of the country of Serpentia, land of love, tolerance, and harmony. Upon entering the town, he comes face-to-face with the most confusing group of dragons he's ever met: Pinkie Pie, the baker; Rainbow Dash, the stunt flyer; Applejack, the farmer; Rarity, the designer; Fluttershy, the animal enthusiast; Twilight Sparkle, the librarian; and Spike, the #1 assistant, who also happens to be a unicorn, a species most rare in this land.

And so begin the most incredible two weeks of Spike's life...

We should have acted. He’s already here. It was foretold that He would return. His defeat was merely a delay… ‘til the time after Nightmare Moon’s return, after Discord spread chaos across the world. But nopony wanted to believe… believe it could be true. And when the truth finally dawns, it dawns in fire!
But, there is one He fears. In His tongue, he is Dovahkiin… Dragonborn!

I'd like to give a special thanks to infernowyvern for providing the picture.

The stages of grief are hard to go through. Some never really get over the loss of a loved one. Rarity hates herself for letting him go, for not saying yes. A life time of regret swallows what is left of her sanity. And in a moment of weakness, she succumbs to the desire to join him.

A reminder of a time when people couldn't love the ones they cared about because society said it was wrong. A battle that still rages to this day.

After a bad date with Trenderhoof, Rarity returns home to her sister. Before long they are joined by an unexpected visitor. Said visitor turns out to be none other than Spike, the dragon that has been infatuated with Rarity for years now. He has come to give her a little speech, and ask her for the only thing he wishes more than anything else—

—just one chance, one opportunity, to take her on a date.

Spike tried time and time again to win Rarity's heart, and time and time again he failed. But now things will be different, this night Spike will finally show Rarity how much she means to him, tonight is the night that Rarity falls in love with Spike.

And what makes this night different from all the others is one simple reason:

Spike has a plan.

Inspired by Kraven's Last Hunt.

Still mopey after Rarity married a faraway Prince, Spike spends his teenage dragon days in bed eating ice cream. Twilight annoyed by his dreary behavior, gets help from a friend to set Spike up on a date. The lucky mare? One of Equestria's fastest rising Deejays!

One Hearts and Hooves day, Rarity is helping Twilight test a new transformation spell that ends up with her becoming a giant dragon. After being chased away by the frightened citizens of Ponyville, Rarity flees to the mountains. Spike then has to set out on a journey in order to save the girl of his dreams.

EDIT: I went back into the story and fixed a bit of proof reading errors and I touched on some of the issues with dialogue that Macho Madness brought up. Overall the story is the same but some of the character interactions are a bit different if you want to check it out. Also, for some reason, and only Macho seemed to notice, the indentation is really weird and for some reason I can't fix.

No marriage is without its challenges, especially not that of Spike and Rarity. Despite the fairy tale-like circumstances surrounding their courtship (Beauty and the Beast is a popular reference made at dinner parties), their relationship is far from perfect: indeed, the combination of her overwhelmingly large dress orders and his frequent extended trips across Equestria as Celestia's personal envoy makes it seem as though neither one of them has any time for their significant other. Yet there is one key factor, one constant variable in their lives that will always be there to remind them of how much they love and care for one another, no matter what issues they face.

Thank Celestia they have Claire.

Discord has always had a thing for Princess Twilight. Unable to resist Twilight's bookish charm, he tries to woo her but she won't have any of it.
