//------------------------------// // Asking Out A Shy Pegasus // Story: Spike's Ponyville Adventures // by Spikemaster105 //------------------------------// The next morning, Spike slowly woke up with a smile in his room when the sun was peeking through the window, he got out of bed and fixed it before going downstairs to eat. "Morning mom", he said smiling as he sat down on the table to eat. "Morning Spike", Fluttershy said back as she served him and herself, then they both started eating, everypony was happy that the colt was alright after what happened two days ago. After they ate, the colt ran upstairs to shower up before going to school, after awhile when he was done he ran to his room getting his saddle bag and ran back downstairs. Then he hugged his mother smiling confusing and concerning her, "Spike..what's wrong", she asked wrapping a hoof around him. "Nothing is wrong...thank you for being my mother and always being there for me", he told her smiling as she smiled and hugged him back with a nuzzle. "Your welcome Spike, I will always be here for you because I love you", Fluttershy told her son smiling. "Love you too mom", the colt said back smiling, then he broke the hug when they heard knocking knowing it's Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo. Later school was done for today as the colts and fillies ran out of the School house with smiles, Diamond end up getting detention instead for what she told Spike. With the Wonderbolts getting off for today, they walked out of the locker room area with towels around their necks, Spitfire and Fleetfoot had a shocked look at what Soarin told them. "I would never tell any Pegasi colt or filly that they don't deserve to look up to us as their idols, or the fact that they don't deserve to be one of us in the future", the Wonderbolt captain said glaring at the ground. "Yeah, and telling a Pegasi they deserve to be flightless, is like telling a unicorn that they deserve to be magicless...I would never tell any anypony that they deserve to remain cutie markless", Fleetfoot said glaring also. "But I'm glad you and Fluttershy found him with Twilights folks", Spitfire told her brother smiling as he nodded with a smile of his own, then she smirked. "So, when are you gonna ask her out", she asked smirking as Fleetfoot smirked also causing him to start thinking about it. He really likes Fluttershy and wants to be there for her and especially Spike, then realises that if he ends up being the shy mares boyfriend, he becomes a father figure to the colt. Then he smiled, "I'm gonna have to see soon enough", he told them smiling as he started making his way out of the building and started flying off towards Ponyville. When he got there, he started flying towards her cottage to check if she was tending to her animals or having a little picnic with them. He made it and saw that she was walking away from her cottage with a smile and landed on the ground, he trotted up to her calling her name. "Hey Fluttershy", he said smiling as she stopped and turned to him confused, then smiled when she saw it was Soarin. "Oh, hey Soarin..what can I do for you", she asked smiling as he nervously scratched the back of his head with a hoof. "Oh just wondering if you like to hang out sometime...say tomorrow", he asked with a hopeful smile as she smiled and nodded. "Damn It, that wasn't asking her out...but it's close enough", he thought to himself smiling not caring that he asked her to hang out. "Sure Soarin, I like to hang out with you tomorrow", she told him smiling as the stallion was inwardly cheering, then became confused. "Uh, if you don't mind me asking...where are you headed", he asked confused, yet curious as to where she is going. "Oh, I was just going to visit Mr Rich to talk to Diamond about what happens when you mess with a mama bear's cub", she said smiling as he nodded, they talked for awhile before he flew away and the shy mare continued to her destination. With Spike and Scootaloo hanging out together at Sugarcube Corner drinking milkshakes, they were talking with smiles about what they are gonna do once they get their cutie marks. "So once you get your cutie mark, your gonna start training for the Wonderbolts", Scootaloo asked smiling as the colt nodded with a smirk before drinking his milkshake. Then the athletic filly thought about the talk her mother gave her last night about why she had a dream about Spike on top of her kissing her and putting his boy part inside her girl part. "Spike, can we go somewhere to talk privately about our dreams...maybe at the Club House", the filly asked blushing as his eye's widen and nodded with a blush also. After awhile, they were at the Crusader Club House sitting down and Spike was remembering the talk Soarin gave him last night about why he had a winger and had a dream about Scootaloo. "My mom told me why I had a dream about you um..kissing me and p-putting your boy part in my girl part", she said with a crimson face looking away as the colt was looking away. "Was it because your going through puberty", Spike said blushing as she nodded, then the colt looked at her. "The same thing with me dreaming about you kissing me and m-making my boy part grow and sitting on, Soarin even told me that my wings got stiff cause um...that I liked it", he told her, then his eye's widen in shock. "Dear Celestia, so that means I liked it when Mrs Velvet called me a cutie and kissed my cheek", he thought to himself in shock, then she his head turning his attention back to Scootaloo. Then Scootaloo blushed as she thought about what Spike said in the letter after leaving town, she decided to ask him about it. "S-Spike....do you love me", she ask with a crimson face and looking away, she didn't see him turned to her blushing as he decided to be honest with her. "Y-Yes Scootaloo...I do love you...and I didn't become Twists boyfriend cause...I wanted to be with you", he told her blushing still as she turned to him in shock. Then she smiled and nuzzled him under his chin, "I love you too Spike", she told him for the first time smiling as he smiled and nuzzled her back. They broke the nuzzle, "wanna go out on a date tomorrow after School Scootaloo", he asked smiling still as she blushed and nodded. "Yeah Spike, let's go out tomorrow after school", she told him smiling and blushing cause she can finally be with the only boy she ever liked. After awhile with Fluttershy finished talking to a scared Diamond Tiara in her bedroom about what happens when you mess with a mama bear's cub. "And that's how protective a mama bear is to her cub", she finished telling the scared filly a 'Nature' lesson with a smile, then she glared at her. "And Diamond...don't let me catch you talking to my son again", she told her glaring down at her as the almost traumatised filly nodded in understanding, then the shy mare smiled again and walked out of her bedroom. She saw Filthy Rich trotting up to her, "again Ms Fluttershy, sorry about my daughter causing your son to leave the Town", he told her frowning. "It's ok Mr Rich, I'm just happy that my little boy is safe and Diamond already promised me that she won't say anything like that to him again", the shy mare told him smiling, then exited the mansion. Later when it was almost dark, Spike was home as him and Fluttershy finished eating dinner, then the shy mare saw the happy look on her son's face. "You seem happy", she asked with a raised eyebrow as the colt blushed. "I'm happy because...me and Scootaloo admitted that we love each other", the colt told his mother as she beamed with joy. "So you and Scootaloo are a couple now", she asked as he blushed and shook his head no. "No mom, we are not a couple yet...but we are gonna go out on a date tomorrow after school", he told her smiling again as Fluttershy nuzzled her son. "My little boy is gonna have his first date tomorrow...I'm so happy for you", she told her son nuzzling him still as the animals and birds looked on. Then she broke the nuzzle smiling, "Spike, I got a letter today and my parents and brother are gonna visit on Friday, so stay home so you can meet them ok", she told him as he beamed and nodded in understanding. With Scootaloo home and being hugged by her happy mother, "It's about time you two are gonna have a date", Rainbow said smirking. "So, did he asked you out or you asked him", she said smirking as Scootaloo blushed with a smile. "He asked me mom...but I don't know what it's like to be on a date", she told her mother frowning all of a sudden as she was nervous about screwing things up on her very first date. "Hey, just be yourself ok...think of it as just hanging out with just him", Rainbow told her daughter smirking. "And who knows...you two might share your first kiss together", she told her daughter smirking still as Scootaloo blushed more with a smile at the thought of kissing the colt. Somewhere in Manehattan, a filly was in bed looking at a picture of a much younger version of her and Spike smiling for the camara. She had a sad smile on her face, "I miss you Spike..why did you have to run away...well, where ever your at...I hope your alright and happy where ever you are", she said to herself again. Then her folks knocked on her bedroom door and walked in, "Babs, are you packed for Saturday to visit your cousin's", her father asked smiling as she nodded with a smile.
