//------------------------------// // Chapter 1 // Story: The Best Apple // by Katniss7123 //------------------------------// "Spike" calls Twilight "Were is that book on magic for experts " "Right here." Says Spike waving the book to Twilight as she yanks it out of his claws with a purple vial of magic. Twilight trots over to her table and flips through a few pages in the book. "Oh here's one...the fast moving spell helps you get a day’s worth of work done in just a few short minutes.....hmm well that seems easy enough" Twilight looks at Spike and he nodes his head and closes his eyes waiting for the magic to hit him. Twilight points her horn at Spike and closes her eyes focusing everything on the spell. Twilight’s horn starts to glow and a huge purple vial forms around it then with a big flash it hits Spike. Twilight opens her eyes and Spike is moving around the Library fast as lighting re-shelving books.Twilight goes up stairs and makes a note in her spell journal making a note that is was a success. Soon the whole place was clean and Spike falls to the floor. "Spike are you okay?" asks Twilight “Ya just a bit tired I guess...I-I think I'm going to go take a nap" says Spike yawning. Twilight gives him a puzzled look and walks over to the table where the book is still laying. "Warning may cause extreme exhaustion when this spell wears off " Twilight reads out loud "Oops sorry Spike" she says to Spike who is curled up in his bed. Just then the Library door opens and Big Macintosh walks in. "Oh hey Big Macintosh, A.J said you were going to stop by to get the Growing The Best Apple Book". Says Twilight walking over to a shelf "Eeyup" says Big Mac "hmm I had it set out but I think Spike put it away. Just give me a second to find it for you, you can sit down if you like." says Twilight climbing up a ladder. Big Macintosh looks around the library and then just stands there waiting for Twilight to find the book. "Oh here it is" says Twilight picking it up. Twilight starts down the ladder and misses a step and flies backward off the ladder towards the ground. Twilight screams and braces herself for the impact. But instead she felt strong hooves around her as both her and her saver falls to the floor. Twilight opens her eyes and she is laying on top of Big Mac. They stare at each other for a few minutes neither trying to move. After a few minutes Twilight comes to her senses and get off of him. "Umm thank you, you just saved me." Says Twilight "Eeyup" says Big Mac Twilight stares at him for a few seconds. "Oh right your book."says Twilight walking over to where it landed when she fell." Here you go and umm thanks again for ...ehh you know" "Eeyup" says Big Mac Twilight frowns she should be use to that but after what just happened she wanted to hear more from him to have a nice conversation with him. I mean he just saved her from almost getting really hurt and all he could say was yeapphh! "Hey Big Mac I really do appreciate what you did for me I feel as though I should repay you somehow" says Twilight "Nooo Ma'am" Say Big Mac "Oh come on I insist maybe we can go to dinner Rarity says the Hay Barn is a good place, A little low class for her taste, but maybe we can go... not saying that your to low class to go to a nicer place." Says Twilight Big Mac stares at her thinking about his answer and Twilight smiles and bats her eyes. Why was she acting this way she had spent allot of time around him when she helped out at Sweet Apple Aces... But now it felt like there where butterfly's in her stomach. "Eeyup... that place it pretty darn tasty how’s about I meet ya down there tomorrow at six" says Big Mac Twilight stands there puzzled and in shock for a few minutes but quickly shakes it off. "Okay that sounds like a like a plan" says Twilight blushing as Big Mac heads out the door and leave without looking back. "What was all that about" asks Spike coming down there stairs rubbing his eyes "Oh nothing I fell off the ladder and he saved me from falling so were going to dinner tomorrow night. Its so I can repay him no big deal" says Twilight "Umm Twi" says Spike "Oh Spike you right what am I going to do. What if I find out that he doesn’t like me and then her won’t let me hang out with Apple Jack anymore." says Twilight "Isn’t that a worst case scenario?" asks Spike "No. or what if he doesn’t like me and won’t let me hang out with Apple Jack, and the rest of the group won’t want to either, and I couldn’t report anything to report to Princess Celestia, and she will make me come back and go back to magic Kindergarten, and the Elements of Harmony will be lost because where not friends anymore, which means Discord could come back, and the world as we know it will change” Twilight yells real fast. “I don’t think she would do that Twi nor do I think that would happen”. Says Spike "She is my teacher Spike she could do anything she wants”. Says Twilight plopping to the ground "Twi you always think the worst will happen and it never does please just this once calm down…like you said it’s just a nice dinner to thank him right?” asks Spike raising and eyebrow Twilight's face turns bright red. “Twi you like him don’t you?” asks Spike “No” Twilight answers a little to fast “were just friends…I mean come on he’s Apple Jacks brother”. Says Twilight “Okay whatever you say.” says Spike rolling his eyes “Oh Spike what am I going to do, what will we talk about, what will I wear…Oh Spike I can’t do this” Twilight whines covering her face with her hooves. “TWILIGHT”! yells Spike grabbing Twilight's Snot and making her look at him in the eyes “Just this once just act like a normal pony going on a date with no fear of what’s going happen or thinking what if this date goes wrong." Twilight jerks away fighting back tears. “Spike was right but what if – No just this once” thought Twilight “Okay Spike Okay”. Says Twilight sniffling and getting to her feet "Good" says Spike The rest of the day Twilight studied while spike relaxed getting the occasional book Twilight needed. “Come on Spike let’s get some rest”. Says Twilight yawing. Twilight smiles at him and crawls in her own bed. A thought comes to her mind. No Twilight you Promised. Its going to work out and every thing is going to be fine. Twilight looks out the window at the moon lighting up her room and closes her eyes and falls asleep.
