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.

Through the simple act of betraying with somepony he knows and loves. Spike will be shown just how far his music can take him. From a simple dream as a little dragon, he gave up his dream and his talent to help the only pony who betrayed him after so many years of being on her side. Running away from Ponyville with his violin, Spike trips to Canterlot... Healing old wounds, finding new friends or something more, and possibly even rekindling the old fire of his dreams...

This time he will focus not on the others, but to follow his dreams...

Rarity has a lot of different mannerisms. But kissing someone on the cheek? Sunset had only seen her do it a few times, and never to her. She could have written it off as a friendly gesture if her magic hadn’t flared up and caused her to see the truth behind Rarity’s actions.

Now... what the hell is Sunset feeling?

With Spike having become an adult, Canterlot now plays host to dozens of mares from the the Crystal Empire set on attracting his attention. Rarity, faced with the prospect of having real potential competition for Spike's heart, is forced to confront her own long-developing feelings for Spike, and the question as to whether Spike still feels the same way about her. Meanwhile, Spike decides that the time has finally come for him to tell Rarity how he's felt about her and finally put the question of their relationship to rest, one way or another.

With both ready to confront their feelings towards each other, the question becomes, what could possibly go wrong?

Note: This story is part of the Guarded Emotions continuity.

Edit: Featured as of 2/1, Thank you guys so much!

Spike could not be happier. Rarity had just accepted his invitation to be more than just friends, and all he has to do is make sure their special night goes smoothly.

But when fate itself threatens the very start of their relationship with a series of apparently unrelated events, from jealous defenders of Guys Nights to dubious gambling rings to the disappearance of Starswirl the Bearded’s magic and a mysterious summoning from Tartarus, Spike and Rarity must find a way to balance their budding love life with their many responsibilities.

And did we mention that the prom is tomorrow?
