//------------------------------// // Chapter 1 - Part 3 - Rarity // Story: Green and Friends - Saga 1 - Domestics // by blaa6 //------------------------------// Green appeared in front of Carousel Boutique in an instant. Looking over to the building, he trotted over and knocked on the door. “Coming!” a voice sang from inside. He could hear shuffling inside as well as sounds of trotting getting closer. The door opened with magic to reveal Rarity. She looked at him and smiled. “Green. Nice to see you. Come in, come in. I’ve finished the gift wrapping and I was just on my way to help with the decor,” she spoke, looking over at the clock. “Although I think I have just enough time to fit you for a new outfit.” She walked behind Green and pushed him inside the boutique, shutting the door behind them. “Are you sure you have enough time? Twilight said that-” “Oh pshaw, Green. You should know me well enough by now that I am a time management master,” Rarity hoofpumps the air. “Says the pony that takes about ten minutes to put on makeup and three to five to do her mane and tail.” Before Rarity could interject, Green continued. “Yes, I’ve been told this by valuable sources.” Rarity deadpanned. “Some things take time, darling,” Rarity said. They arrived in front of the pedestal in front of the mirrors. Green stepped onto it. “Stand still...for one...moment.” She put the suit on him using magic. “There. Now to fit it.” She got some measuring tape, a few needles, and thread as she examined the suit. “So...how long do you-” he began to ask. “Five minutes give or take,” she interjected. Green grinned a bit. ‘Might as well talk about it while I’m here,’ he thought. “So...what’s up with you and Spike?” he asked nonchalantly. Rarity’s magic faltered poking him with the needle. “Oww!” “Spike? He’s a good friend. N-nothing more,” she said nervously as she moved on to the back legs. “Are you sure?” Green grinned a bit. Rarity sped up a bit, sweating and blushing a bit. “Y-yes I am.” She moved on to the final leg. “I don’t see why he couldn’t be given a chance. He’s grown a lot since you first met him. He’s a bit taller and now has wings.” She started to sweat more and blush heavily. “He’s nice, giving, extremely helpful and very loyal.” She finished up the last stitch as she teleported the suit off of him. “Look at that! I’ve finished. Sorry to see you leave so soon, darling, but I must prepare for the party.” She rushed him out of the boutique as she blushed so much, she might be mistaken for Big Mac. She pushed him out of the building. “Why not check in at Sugarcube Corner? It’s almost time after all.” She slowly closed the door. “See you there,” Rarity finished as she closed the door. Green chuckled to himself as he formed plans for another day. Rarity leaned against the door, sweating and blushing intensely. “That was too close.” She looked at a picture of Spike on the coffee table to her right. She levitated it over, grabbed it with her hooves and held it close, smiling as she blushed.
