*******************************************************************
Right now Spitfire's about 7 months pregnant and I forced her to take maternity leave since she was 5 months pregnant and . Though she still insisted that she at least deal with the paperwork and I can't do anything but agree. But really,the only reason that I have to take over is that I don't want the cadets (except Scootaloo ofcourse) to know about Spitfire's pregnancy. The rest of the 'Bolts know,since they were in Dash's wake. One day,I figured that we might as well know the baby's gender. So that Sunday,we went to the doctor's office and had Spits have an ultrasound.
"Soarin?" Spitfire asked me while we wait for the doctor.
"Hmm?" I hummed acknowledging her question.
"What do you want the baby to be?" She asked.
I thought for a second before saying "I want the baby to be a girl hopefully,but a boy's fine as well." I said smiling.
"Well I want a daughter too." She said laughing slightly.
"Well whatever the gender is,I'm sure that it's gonna be a damn good soccer player." I said,placing a hand on her belly making her smile softly.
"Are you reading stories to the baby before you sleep?" I asked concerned.
She nodded and said "Yeah,an hour before I go to bed and in the office if I have no paperwork to do,not only that,mom's been forcing me to play classical music while I sleep! She said that she want's her grandchild to smart and talented!" She groaned.
"Hey! What wrong with a smart child?!" I asked pouting. "Twilight said that classical music will make the baby's brain develop faster,therefore making the baby smarter! And besides, she also said that reading books to the baby will make it's reading skill increase,so that means,that at a very young age it might be able to read already!" I said. "My mom read books to Speedey while he was still in her belly thou not that much,he still developed his reading skills pretty fast." I boasted.
"Geez,since when did you become such an egghead?" Spitfire asked me,smirking.
"Hey,I knew that from my dad and Twilight."I said shrugging.
Spitfire rolled her eyes and said "Yeah,yeah." and we waited for the doctor to call us and 10 minutes later,Spits's
"Finally!" She groaned "Help me up!" She demanded and I had no choice but to help her.
*********************************************************************
"Good morning Mrs.Spitfire."A cream colored woman said with golden hair in a tight bun said with a smile and warm hazelnut eyes.
"Ah,this must be the lucky father.I'm Doctor Pink Heart."She introduced herself to me warmly while she started while flicking thru papers clipped on a clipboard. "Let me just say congratulations. I'm sure that you were overjoyed to know about your-"
"Actually...I'm not her husband. Yes I'm the father,but not her husband." I interrupted her.
She looked at us with wide eyes and she opened her mouth to say something only to close it and opened it again and closed it and repeat.
"It's a long story." I said waving a hand dismissively. "But I take full responsibility as the baby." I said.
"Umm...ok then so you're here to know the gender of the baby,correct?" She asked after a few minutes to let her settle from the shook.
"Yeah we are." Spitfire said. "I've drank a shit load of water,and my bladder's about to burst." She said clearly unhappy of her current state.
"Ah,good that means we can get started." Pink Heart said cheerily.
"You know what to do know Ms.Spitfire." Pink Heart said while sitting next to a weird machine.
"Pink Heart,you know that I don't like called 'Ms.Spitfire'" Spitfire said rolling her eyes and Pink Heart just giggled and said nothing.
Spitfire then went to the bed lined with paper. Next she pulled down her pants till her belly button showed,then she rolled up her T-shirt just below her breast. I sat down next to her on a chair next to the bed.
"Ok,so what do you want your child to be?" The doctor asked us while she spread some kind of gel on a T-shaped stick.
"We're both hoping for a baby girl."I said smiling down at the mother of my child or children.
"Ok brace yourself Spitfire." The doctor warned,placing the weird stick on Spitfire's belly making her hiss and grip my hand.
"God,that's cold." She complained.
"I told you to brace yourself." The doctor said with a chuckle.
"Smart ass." Spitfire scoffed.
"Ok...It's a boy!" The doctor said with a slight chuckle. But then she squinted. "What?" The doctor asked,shocked.
"What's wrong doc.?" I asked worriedly.
"Is something wrong?" Spitfire asked also worried.
"It's both a girl,and a boy!" Doctor Pink Heart said eyes wide.
"WAIT?! I'M HAVING TWINS?!" Spitfire yelled looking at the screen and surely there were two babies in her stomach.
"I must have missed it the first time you had your check up." Doctor Pink Heart said. "The other one must be shy." She said.
"So what you're saying is that instead of one baby,she has two in there?!" I exclaimed pointing to Spitfire's tummy.
"I'M NOT FUCKING READY TO TAKE CARE OF TWO BABIES AT THE SAME TIME!!" Spitfire screamed at me.
"Hey,don't worry Spitfire. You're not gonna do this alone remember?" I said rubbing her back.
Doctor Pink Heart them gave Spitfire tissue to wipe off the gel on her belly then she pulled her pants back up and pulled her shirt down. She then hugged me tightly.
"What are we gonna do Soarin?" Spitfire asked me with tears in her eyes.
"I know that it's not my business,but what do you mean Mr.Soarin by 'Yes I'm the father,but not her husband.'" She asked me with a raised eyebrow.
I sighed and said "The time me and Spitfire...made love,I was engaged to someone. And she caught us. The sole reason why Spitfire advanced at me is cause,she likes me.But sadly the feeling wasn't mutual. I tried to get my fiance back,but it was too late. You see,my fiance has a... dark childhood to say the least,and....she....she took her own life."I narrated sighing at the end.
"I'm so sorry to hear that." Pink Heart said.
"Yeah,but I'll get through it." I said. "Well,we'll be off. Come on Spitfire,let's go." I said,walking out of the hospital with an arm draped across Spitfire.
Soon we reach my car and we drove to Spitfire's home.
******************************************************************************
The drive was relevantly silent except for the radio blaring out random music.
******************************************************************************
We soon reached her house.
"Look,Spitfire,I know that this was big news,but I'll be with you every step of the way. I Pinkie promise. Cross my heart and hope to fly,stick a cupcake in my eye." I chanted while making a series of hand motions ending with placing a palm on my eye as if I'm shoving something in my eye.
AND YOU BETTER KEEP THAT PROMISE BUSTER!!! OR ELSE!!
"PINKIE PIE!!" I yelled "Get out of my car right now and go back to Ponyville!" I continued to yell at Pinkie.
FINE! I'll leave I'll leave shees
"Well never mind that,Spitfire,please know that I'll never leave you hanging." I said smiling at Spitfire.
"Ok,I know you won't leave me to take care of the kids alone,but I'm scared you know."Spit admitted sheepishly,blushing slightly.
"It's ok to be nervous Spits,to be honest,I am too. Sure I may may have helped taken care of Speedey when I was a kid,but this is much different." I said. "Just know Spitfire. I ain't leaving you." I said with a big smile. "Unless of course I find a cutie that can turn into my wife." I said shrugging my shoulders with a smirk.
Spitfire gasped and exclaimed "You wouldn't dare!!" with wide eyes and I couldn't help but laugh.
"Of course not! Nobody's gonna replace Dashie." I said with a small chuckle. "Well I'mma go now." I said.
"Goodnight Soarin." She said with a small peck on the cheek. I smiled and pecked her cheek making Spitfire blush.
"Goodnight Capt." I said before driving off.
********************************************************************************
Soon I reached my home and I parked my car, hopped out and made dinner.
'I have to talk to her soon...might as well get it over with' I thought to myself. Sighing,I dialled Dash's old physiatrist.
"Hello,you have reached Doctor Sunlight Glimmer's office,I am Sunny Flare.Doctor Sunlight's secetary.How may I help you?" The voice said on the other side of the line.
"Ah,Ms.Sunlight. Umm...when is Doc available?" I asked sheepishly.
"Soarin?!" She said with a slight gasp.
"Yeah,it's me.." I said while rubbing the back of my neck. "So when is she available?" I asked again.
"Um...let's see uh.. why? Is there something wrong with Dash?" She asked.
"No it's not Dash,it's me...You see...Rainbow Dash...she's...she's umm...gone." I said my voice barely a whisper when I uttered the last word.
"Oh my God!"Sunlight gasped at the other side of the line. "I'm so sorry that happened." She said with sadness in her voice. "Do you want to book an appointment? I mean she did help Dash cope with her pass..." She said trailing off.
"Yeah,that's the reason why I called. I'd like to have a session with Doc.Glimmer." I said.
"Oh,ok well if you want,you can come by tomorrow by 12:30 in the afternoon." She said.
"Ok I'll be there,see you tomorrow." I said.
"Ok,goodbye see you tomorrow." She said before hanging up.
'Well...I hope atleast Dashie's happy.' I thought to myself finishing my dinner and washing up me plates and watching television until I felt sleepy and passed out on my bed holding a picture of Rainbow Dash in a two piece with the summer sun providing the best lighting for it and frankly it was one of the more sexy pictures I have of Dash.
But...
