Rarity turned in her bed a bit, the morning sun poking through the curtains on the wall. Despite the rough night she somehow had avoided a hangover and, even more impressive, get some sleep. She rolled gently out of bed and trotted over to her day planner. She looked closely at something she must have written in a hurry, as the writing was scrawled.
"Hmm...Party...Planning...with...Pinkie Pie?" She read in her head and out loud and then she repeated it "Party planning with Pinkie Pie!!! How could I let myself forget? Spikey Wikeys Birthday is coming up!" She giggled to herself, She had been waiting on an opportunity to plan the events for months and it was finally here.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After settling herself down and showering Rarity took a moment to look at the mirror, She did not remember doing anything different with her mane, but there was a glow about her she could feel. She gave her reflection a wink and giggled.
"Oh my my my... I feel like a school-filly.. but I do look quite amazing..." she was interrupted by a loud meow from her cat Opalescence and simply replied "Yes Opal... I am sexy and I know it!" Laughing to herself as she finished she made her way downstairs for breakfast, but not without her gorgeous fire-ruby, as of late no day was complete without the gem she held so dear.
Every minute she grew happier, as it was a minute close to planning Spikes birthday party. With Pinkie Pie's help it was a sure-fire success, not to mention that she Pinkie-Pie-Swore not to divulge Rarity's little secret, which was indeed helpful. After her breakfast she trotted happily out the door to be met with the face of Twilight Sparkle.
"Twilight darling is there something you need? I was on my way to see Pinkie Pie" Rarity said, hoping that the Purple Unicorn had good news.
" Well...I know we Agreed upon me not sending Spike any more letters...But...He never said you couldn't...So I was wondering if maybe you...Could?" Twilight said, she was smiling sheepishly, her eyes hopeful.
"I would be more than happy...but Could it wait till later dear? I will stop by the library at 3:00 PM sharp, But Right now I must go see Pinkie Pie, It is of the utmost Importance and she will be expecting me." Rarity said Her smile growing wider. Twilight Smiled and nodded in return,Something however was off about her, Something Rarity couldn't quite put her hoof on.
Rarity continued her way to Sugarcube corner, Waving goodbye to Twilight. She hoped that a letter from herself might convince Spike to return, She hated to admit it but she was still a little angry at Twilight for letting it happen. Of course Twilight was still her friend, as long as Spike returned all would be well.
As she trotted she could not help but admire the clear sky, Rainbow Dash had outdone herself and it seemed the perfect setting for what she hoped would be a great day. As she Approached Sugarcube Corner she suppressed a giggle, the time had finally come for the party planning.
"Cup Cake? Might I ask Where Pinkie Pie is? I believe she should be expecting me." Rarity Said to the light Cerulean Mare, Almost beaming.
"Why yes, she is upstairs go on up." Said Mrs. Cake, Smiling in return.
Rarity Began her way up the stairs, and tapped gently on Pinkies room door. To her surprise the door flew open and she was met with Pinkie Pie's Smiling face.
"Hey Rarity I knew you would be by! So I have a BUNCH of ideas that will be PERFECT for Spikes party and I can't wait to talk so comeincomeincomein!!!" Pinkie said with her usual abundance of energy.
Stepping in Rarity greeted her friend trying to maintain her usual Calm demeanor. They wasted no time in planning, everything from the punch bowl to the banners had to be perfect. What she would usually find over the top she knew would be genius, subtlety was not necessary at this point and could prove to hinder her plans. They started with the simplest thing there was, the guest list, Rarity wanted everypony possible to be there, Mayor Mare, Zecora, all the unique characters she met around town would have to be there for her plans to go properly.
Ponyville Park was the only place Rarity could imagine the party, the library was certainly too small, and the natural moonlight would compliment the music, and more importantly accentuate the outfit she had planned for the evening. As her and Pinkie wrote their ideas down they found themselves taking up several pages with ideas, which only delighted Rarity even further. Pinkie Pie would prepare delicious food, while she would choose, or make if need be, the decorations.
As the planning went on the two of them pieced together the perfect celebration, the only thing missing was the guest of honor. It mattered not though, if anypony could change the mind of somebody as stubborn as Spike, it was going to be Rarity, a thought she happily compared to what could be the ending of a good romance novel. Pinkie meanwhile was hard at work, Already working on the Invitations for the party.
"Pinkie dear? It has been great spending this time planning the party, but I promised Twilight I would stop by the library in about 15 minutes, could you perhaps carry on without me?" Rarity said smiling at the pink earth pony in front of her.
"Oh no problem Rarity, you go on ahead, there is not much left to do anyways. Don't worry, there is no party like a Pinkie-party, I cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye PROMISE Spike will love the party!" Pinkie said bouncing and pantomiming her signature promise to her friend.
`Rarity Wave farewell,whether the party went according to plan or not, Rarity did not really care, her only thought was that her dear Spikey Wikey would think it was The...Best...Possible...THING!
