Spike currently sat on the bumpy seats of the train, he currently sat opposite of a unicorn mare from Canterlot that was just visiting Ponyville for a couple of days. Lemon Hearts; she had Moderate raspberry colour eyes, with a Moderate cerulean with a light cerulean tail streak in her mane and her coat being Light brilliant yellow and sometimes having Light cornflower bluish gray colour eye shadow.
Lemon Hearts giggle at Spike's joke and with his charming voice, the unicorn mare was in his claw, she leans in to kiss Spike on the lips. He pulled the unicorn mare closer to his warm body, Lemon Hearts broke the kiss too fast for Spike's liking.
"Sorry, this is a little too soon, we just met a few days ago." Lemon Hearts spoke, Spike rolled his eyes.
The male dragon started to wear a brown trench coat, it was made by Rarity for one of his birthdays before he left Ponyville without saying goodbye to any of his friends. He knew that Twilight is angry at him, her anger levels are most likely over Luna's moon. Spike wished to stay with his friends, but he was always on the move, the male dragon is a wander around Equestria.
"Come on, Lemon Hearts. You're a beautiful mare, one of the most beautiful ponies I have ever met." Spike spoke.
The male dragon has been known as a ladies man, picking up on any mare that caught his green colour eyes. Using the same lines repeatedly, making the mare who he was trying to get with to feel special. To feel like she matters in the large world, that somebody cares and loves her. Spike just uses that to get with them, the best part was that ever mare falls for it. Spike been at this for so long, that the male dragon knows how to play the cards in his hand.
"Really, you think I'm beautiful?" Lemon Hearts asked, she couldn't believe that someone would say at to her, most guys rather chase after her friend; Twinkleshine.
"Divine, delightful, exquisite, magnificent. Pick one my dear, you're too good for words, you are a gift from above." Spike said, giving off his alluring smile.
"Oh, Spike that's so sweet." Lemon Hearts spoke, her head lean off to the left.
Before she could lean in and kiss the dragon again. The train hiss and stopped having arrived at Canterlot, Lemon Hearts looked and gave Spike a quick kiss on his lips. Telling him that she'll date him next time the two meet again. Spike lean his head on the window, the next stop was Manehattan, the place where he was going. The male dragon was too well known in Canterlot, he had wooed a lot of Mares in the royal city.
Spike got out a small black notebook from his right pocket with his blue ink pen. Writing down Lemon Hearts' name right underneath her best friend name. Spike tapped his chin with the tip of the pen.
Twinkleshine and Lemon Hearts (If I place my cards right, I could get with both of them) Spike wrote down.
The male dragon knew that no mare would talk to him or fall for his tricks on the train, they all saw him chatting with Lemon Hearts, they all most likely thought that the two found love on the train ride. Spike rolled and laughed at the thought of 'Love' he knows better, it was just a child's game. Only fools fell in love, it's like how the ocean is blue and the grass is green.
Spike head lean on the window, watching the trees past by in a flash. He began to wonder what kind of mares Manehattan had, he knew that no pony could match her. Spike shook his head, getting that unicorn with a snow white coat out of his head, she was the only reason that he left Ponyville.
Spike shut his eyes, sleeping and saving his energy for the only city large enough to rival Canterlot in size. Spike's dreams were filled with gems raining down from above while he was surrounded by many beautiful mares. The male dragon smiled in his sleep, he could feel the bumps with his head banging against the back of his seat.
Spike awoke, he had a grumpy expression frozen on his face. The male dragon had always despise being woken up when he's was having a wonderful dream, he rubbed his tired green eyes, looking to see the state of a mare holding a large torch in her right hoof and a book in her left. Many boats were out on the ocean and there was just so many different streets and buildings.
Spike gave off a smile, looking at the city.
'New place, new mares. I wonder what kind of girls I'll meet here?' Spike thought, while the train began to slow down.
The train finally stopped, stream filled the air. Many ponies rushed out of the train cart and into the streets of Manehattan. Spike stayed still, his claws were in his pockets, his right claw feeling his black book to check if it was still there. Spike laughed remembering that Twilight had bought that for Spike on his birthday, so he would remember to do his work.
Buying an apple from a not so joyful pony. Spike crush down on the apple, he remembers back when he was a baby dragon visiting Manehattan for the first time, the buildings felt so high, like they past the clouds in the bright blue sky. Spike chuckled at his old childish self, the main question was where to start.
There are just so many streets and pathways leading off to who knows where, ponies pushed past Spike, not even batting an eye at the male dragon. Most of them just acted like he was just some stupid tourist that didn't know any better, Spike just started walking straight ahead. Hopping that luck would lead him to what he wants.
Spike made his way through the crowds of ponies. His eyes search around, there are a lot of pretty mares for Spike to pick from, but his eyes locked on one, an earth pony mare. Her eyes colour is grayish brown with her mane being grayish violet and finally her coat colour being very pale orchid. Spike knew who she was, Suri Polomare one of Rarity's rivals in the fashion world.
"Hello there my dear." Spike spoke, causing Suri to turn to look at the male dragon.
"Why hello tall handsome dragon, how may I help you. I'm..." Suri started
"Yes, Suri Polomare, a name that belongs to a Goddess. I have travelled all over Equestria and I heard your name from everywhere I went. Canterlot, Fillydelphia, Las Pegasus and many more. You're famous around the world, I was just wish we could get a cup of coffee sometime?" Spike asked, Suri cheeks heated with a bright burning blush.
"Oh my, who may you be?" Suri asked, Spike could tell from her facial expression that he already won her over without need to try much.
"My name is Spike." He said, putting on a charming smile.
Spike had Suri Polomare in his claws, the earth pony with the pale orchid colour coat walked by his side. Leaning on his side, the two went to the nearest cafe where they were; Sunny Bites Cafe. Spike and Suri sat outside, enjoying the lovely weather that shine down from above. Spike sat bored giving off a deadpan expression while Suri talked on and on about how great she was.
Spike didn't listen to a word that Suri Polomare said, this was the biggest mistake he make right next to when he got together with Blossomforth that was a mare that could talk for hours without stopping to take a breath. Spike eyes looked behind Suri spotting another earth pony leaving the cafe.
Spike could see her clearly, she was breath-taking. She looked a bit familiar, Spike couldn't put his claw on it now she was too busy walking away, Suri seemed to noticed Spike looking towards the earth pony mare that walking away from Sunny Bites Cafe. Suri Polomare rolled her eyes, she seems displeased at the seeing that mare again.
"That's Coco Pommel, she was my former assistant. She backstabbed me, turn on me for a unicorn and now she thinks that she better than me." Suri Polomare raged on, she noticed that Spike was no longer sitting opposite of her with a note left on the table.
"Don't write to me, I'll write to you." The note readied.
Spike walked the streets of Manehattan, learning from ponies and just seeing Coco Pommel walking a quite far distance from the male dragon. Spike stood by the street lamp, watching the earth pony going into the shop she owns. Using one of his fingers, Spike rip through his trench coat sleeve. Ripping off a large part of the sleeve leading towards his elbow.
Spike knocked on the door, it opens the male dragon saw this Coco Pommel, she had light cyan colour eyes, with her mane colour being pale, light greyish cyan and opalish grey and finally her coat colour is light amberish gray. Spike just remember why he knew her, Coco Pommel works and knows Rarity.
"Oh hello, how may I help you?" Coco asked, her voice sounded sweet and pleasing on the ears.
"You may not remember me, I'm Spike. I'm a friend of Rarity's" Spike said, keeping the smile on his face.
Coco Pommel looked at him, moving her head up and down, her light cyan colour eyes looked at the male dragon, the earth pony mare blushed a bit at the site of him. The last time she saw him, the male dragon was just a baby... But now, he fully grown up.
"I was just wondering if you could fix up Trench Coat, it's a prize possession. A dear friend of mine made it for my birthday, it just sounds all a bit silly." Spike said, he didn't know why he was telling her all of this.
"Oh, I get that. Even the littlest things like a shirt or stuffed animal toy meant for young fillies and colts can be prize possession in due time." Coco spoke, letting the male dragon into her shop.
Spike sat on the seat while Coco looked over the Trench Coat, Spike remember that his black notebook was still inside his right-hand pocket. He was more than nervous; his plan was to woo Coco Pommel if she would find the book then it could be horrible for him.
"Rarity talks about you a lot. She and I write letters, she misses you and wonders why you left." Coco Pommel spoke up, Spike froze.
"I rather not talk about it, I shall make us some tea." Spike said, giving off a charming smile to Coco Pommel.
Spike just left the room, Coco noticed a small black notebook that fell out of the pocket of Spike's Trench Coat. Her head tilted to the right, she opens the book, going off to a random page.

Those were just the first five pages, Coco shut the book putting it back into the pocket. The earth pony mare knows that she is just going to be just another name with a long list of mares. Coco Pommel gave off a devilish smile, she is coming up with a plan in her head.
'He won't win my heart, let's just see how far he's willing to go?' Coco Pommel thought to herself, the gears in her head working on all the ways she could make Spike pay for all the hearts he broke until he meet her.
Spike exit the kitchen wearing a smile, holding two tea cups. Coco Pommel gave the male dragon a sweet smile, taking a small drink in her hoof. Coco had thought of a plan to make the male dragon pay, she was giving off an evil smirk thinking of all the ways she would use him like a puppet.
"This is great Spike." Coco spoke, Spike gave a friendly smile in return
"It's no problem Coco, maybe we could go out sometime?" Spike asked
"Sorry Spike, but I need to finish my work first. You can help me get through all the good luck rituals that I made. If you help me, then I'll go on a date with you." Coco Pommel said, returning Spike's friendly smile.
Spike blinked, "Fine then. What do have me to do?"
Coco gave off her kind smile, that looked more devilish then kind and welcoming. Spike just looked confused on what Earth pony was planning, she claps her two front hooves together with a smile that Spike found cute with the way her head was a little bit on the right. Coco got up, pulling Spike by his right ear. The dragon let out some cries of pain at the ear pulling, Spike stood up.
"Now for the good luck rituals!" Coco Pommel cry out in pleasure
"Flick your ear," Spike flinched, "Then Iron a sunflower and..." Coco looked around seeing how dirty her floor was "Clean the floor." She finished, Spike dumbfounded expression was frozen on his face.
The male dragon shook his head, thinking nothing about the strange good luck rituals. Spike has been going at this for five hours, each time he finished one Coco added five more. Strange that most of them around chores like washing the dishes or folding away clothes. Then some was a little stranger, like giving a cactus a hug or screaming like a weasel while Coco hit Spike with a metal chair.
She wanted or needed Diamond Dog toenails, cut hair from a unicorn and a dragon scale. Coco drunk her hot chocolate filled with some marshmallows, Spike fell on the couch, he looked tired and out of breath, the male dragon was also missing a scale on his right arm.
Coco had her head against the table, she was looking at a dress that looked complete, but the mare with light amberish grey colour coat. Had her head against the table, Spike saw the mare, chuckling to himself knowing what she was going through. Coco head looked up to see piles of beautiful shining gems sitting in front of them, Spike gave her smile.
"Keep them, think it like a gift." Spike gave a warm smile before he left to go and get a Hippogriff feather, Coco found herself lucky that Spike didn't catch her blushing.
It was long until Coco ran out of ideas to put Spike through she already made him hang upside down while kissing a rock and getting her a rainbow's glow. Coco Pommel was in a strange moment, her hoof was held by Spike's claw, the male dragon was currently teaching her how to dance since she got invited to a ball.
A lovely melody blasted from the stereo, while Spike held her close to his warm scales. Coco felt strange on three hooves while her front left hoof was held by Spike's claw, but she felt like he wouldn't let her go, she felt safe with him holding her close. Spike and Coco lean close, their lips was only inches apart, the earth pony mare pushed the male dragon away.
"No! I won't be another mare on your list!" Coco Pommel cried out
"So, you readied my list?" Spike asked, even already knowing the answer Coco nodded her head.
"You’re the guy who would kiss them and I love them cause to you they're all the same. Tell me that I'm wrong" Coco said, Spike looked away.
"I go around, since I got my heartbroken before and I don't want to ever feel that again. I always leave if I close to falling in love with the mare that I'm trying to woo." Spike said, Coco threw Spike his trench coat.
"Well, I'm not being on that list." Coco said, proudly
"Good because I was going to leave Manehattan tomorrow anyway, I'm heading to Cloudsdale, is the furthest city from Manehattan." Spike said, putting on his coat and leaving Coco alone.
"Stupid Spike. 'Oh, I only moving to Cloudsdale, because it the furthest away from Manehattan. Since the only reason I leave is if I fall in love with the mare that I'm woo...'" Coco Pommel spoke, trying her best to mock Spike's voice. Soon getting the thought in her head.
"Oh, I get it now."
Steam filled the air, ponies rushed to buy their tickets. Spike stepped up the counter, wanting a one-way ticket to Fillydelphia then it would take a blimp up to Cloudsdale, Spike thought that while he was in Fillydelphia he could say hello to his friend Lightning Dust. Coco stepped next to him, pulling the male dragon away from the ticket booth before he could buy a ticket.
"You're taking me out on a date. Tonight, at The Queen Cottage, it's a restaurant close to my apartment. The time is six-PM, don't be late." Coco spoke, Spike scratched his head.
"Umm... What's happening?" Spike asked, Coco gave him a smile.
"We're going on a date since you love me, and I love you, after our date. You are burning that book." Coco Pommel said, Spike smiled.
"Well, it's for good luck." Coco smiled
