//------------------------------// // Double Date (Valentine's Day Special) Pt.1/3 // Story: Anidate me please // by CaioCoia //------------------------------// As the day of romance paired in the air, into the most knowledge of the city. A couple of owners of the bakery decided to think about what would be the best way to attract more clientele at the start of June. "Honey I know it can be difficult, but we need to find ways to raise funds over this month since most of the kids will be on vacations on the beaches." The female blue skin woman said as her husband made sure to check their funds for new projects and ideas. As the sound of babies were laughing as their employee was playing with them. "Yeah, but I'm struggling to find something that would help us on this occasion. We must have some kind of a way to attract people, maybe it wasn't for kids, we must try something that most people didn't try before. I mean It's the 06th of June we have something to try on." The yellow-skinned man who wears the apron said as he sighed while giving some calculus on their budget. Thinking hard, Carrot Cake couldn't find an idea and decided to almost give up, but he glanced at the teenager playing horse with his kids which made him look curious at his employee. "Pinkie Pie. Do you have some idea for what we could do at Sugar Cube Corner this month to attract clients?" "Oh, you mean like Valentine's day?" Pinkie Pie asked back, which made a vinyl scratch sound over their minds and made both adults look at the silly pink girl with their eyebrows raised. "Err... Pinkie sweetie... Valentine's day already happened in February." Miss Cake smiled forcedly at her helper, but when she said that Pinkie Pie started giggling. "Oh, I know that silly. But when I said Valentine's day, I mean quote "Couple's day" or Dia dos Namorados, which happens in Brazil. My brother Octavio Pie told me." Pinkie Pie patted the head of her boss which made both owners of the bakery's eyes go wide open. "It could be?" Miss Cake looked at her husband, which made him tap his chin as he thinks. "Yeah, that can work. The couples who couldn't make a good gift and dinner for their lovely ones, or who forgot about that day. It can be their redemption day. And Vallentine's day this year was a huge success... Yeah, why we couldn't think about it? Pinkie Pie you deserve a raise for that." Carrot Cake smiled as he made Pinkie Pie stop her tracks. "I get paid?" Pinkie Pie ask curiously, which made both couples nod their heads. "Yeah, but at the moment you receive your payment, you already spent on the bakery and buy many of the products you can buy." Miss Cake says as Pinkie Pie has a huge gasp. "Oh yeah." Pinkie Pie slapped her forehead as looked at a cupcake with a pink frost with springles. "Why are you so tasty? You have been taking all my payments. Nhm Nhmm" Both bakers watched the silly girl eats happily her desert, as they shrugged and decided to make the idea for their weekend for couples work. "Are you sure that it's fine Spike?" Sonata said as they see the banner prepared for a romantic time in the bakery. "I mean, I always love to pass time with you, but isn't that a bit stranger. A special date in the afternoon in a bakery with a theme of couples... and we aren't in Brazil to celebrate it." "Well, Pinkie Pie said it was a good time for couples who didn't manage to get their time in Vallentine's day in February, and since it has been a month we are together. I hoped we could celebrate this date since you didn't tell me you want to date me in the chat." Spike answered as Sonata sheepishly scratched the back of her head. Which made both chuckles and accept their first Valentine's day in June. As they get inside Sugarcube Corner, there was indeed the romance in the air, since it was fulfilled with couples around the bakery, at the tables, there were couples who were sharing with each other desserts and milkshakes. If wasn't for the fact that they were in June, it would seem to be a genuinely Valentine's day from February. As the decorations seemed to be still with heart-shaped chocolates and many good variances of red, pink, and white colors around the decorations. "Wow. I have to confess they really went hard on this time." Spike said as he looked around and found some friends he meet at the school, Button Mash was hanging out with Diamond Tiara, and Snips was hanging out with a girl from his class. As Snails was in love with the shy gothic girl who seemed to hide a smile as well. A weird combination but earned a respect from him. "SPIKE." Suddenly a shout made him jump from his place and found his pink friend who seemed to grin like having a dose of caffeine mixed with 10 spoons of sugar. "12 spoons actually." Pinkie Pie said, which made Spike blink at her. "What?" Spike asked in confusion which received obviously another question from her. "What?" Pinkie Pie feigned ignorance as she suddenly gave a hug to him. And she was so energic that even hugging she was smiling at his girlfriend. "I'm so glad that you are here. Hey Sonata." "Hey Pinkie." Both Sonata waved happily at her and gave a hug with Spike in the middle, and gave a sandwich hug which is suffocating him. "Girls... air..." Spike felt his skin becoming blue as both gasped and released him from their hug. Making him take his breath back. "Ahhhhhh. Finally breath." As Spike stretched his neck the girls were hugging each other since they have seen each other for a while. "I'm so glad to see you again Sonata, how has been the work?" Pinkie Pie said as she smiled widely which made her friend smile as well and close her eyes. "It's fantastic, my and my team are actually planning to do a few filler episodes, which would make something silly that Filly Second would actually do," Sonata said as she patted the head of her friend who has been giggling a lot, and giving enough time to Spike to recover from being suffocated. "Well, it's great to know, welcome to Sugar Cube Corner guys. Today is the special of dia dos namorados, or like Brazillian Valentine's day. So we thought it would be a good idea to make a day in June for couples to share a date, but I didn't think it would be that successful. So do you mind sharing a table with another couple?" Pinkie Pie said as the duo looked around and found it was indeed a lot of people around there, and both Sonata looked at each other and giving shrugged together. As the couple walked around, Spike noticed a familiar green hat over the tables. And at the moment Spike was going to open his mouth he was interrupted abruptly. "CHAVO." Sonata shouted which made every couple look at her, especially the boy who was eating with his girlfriend, and from recognizing the voice the boy got up and went to hug the duo. "Sonata, Spike." The boy with a new set of clothes, but still using the same stripe shirt, and green hat, was maybe the signature of his favorite part of his clothing which he still uses at the day. "How you guys have been? What you are doing here?" "We are here to date, and it seems that the bakery is full," Spike said as he scratched the back of his head. And Chavo who seemed surprised to see them both, he couldn't help but keep his smile. "So why not join us?" Chavo smiled as he dragged both Spike and Sonata who didn't even have time to react, as the energic young man made them sit with him. After managing to sit at the table, Spike noticed that Chavo wasn't alone over his table there was a girl who has a combination of brown hair with straps of black hair, long enough just to touch her shoulders, and her green mint blouse was with what would be a pink flower on her hair. And at the table next to her there was another couple who was still looking at each other enamored. Spike noticed in 10 seconds that the woman over there was actually the owner of the Taco Restaurant, Miss Florinda. And by her side was a long tall man, who was nothing more than a grey suit and a fedora on his head. With a good mustache, and eyes that could resemble both kindness and wisdom. "Oh hey, Sonata." The girl who noticed the couple appearing next to Chavo, smiled as the duo decided to sit next to them. "Hey Patty, sorry to disturb your date," Sonata said as she sheepishly smiled which made both Patty and Chavo scoff. "Ah don't worry, we already know you. And Patty, meet Spike. Sonata's girlfriend." Chavo smiled as he touched the back of the boy who seemed nervous as well. "Oh really? Now we can finally have a double date." Patty smiled as she saw the boy who seemed familiar to her. "Wait for a second... so he is the boy you said you were stalking?" "I told you that I wasn't stalking him." Sonata hissed, as both Chavo and Spike held their laugh and decided to sit at the same time. And knowing that she was the only one without sitting decided to sit while sighing. "Whatever." As the duo sat next to each other. Chavo smiled at the love of his life. In the same way, Spike and Sonata blushed as sitting next to each other. "Hello, lovers. Do you want to order at this moment?" At the next second, the owner of the establishment smiled as he took a notepad and waited for the orders of the couples Chavo and Patty, and Spike and Sonata. "Well... Please bring 3 chocolate milkshakes, 1 vanilla milkshake, 4 red velvet with dark chocolate ganache, 4 Romeo and Juliet cheesecakes, and 4 cupcakes of explosive chocolate." Chavo already ordered, which made both Spike and Sonata look at each other, seemed surprised that Chavo already ordered them, but the next question made them dumbfounded. "And what you guys are going to ask?" Spike's jaw dropped at the table, as Sonata facepalmed herself. "Of course, he would do that," Sonata said to herself, as she looked at Spike and snapped her finger at him a few times making him recover from his shock, at the moment he was going to question the boy, Sonata pointed to the owner who seemed to be taking the order. "Oh right. Mr. Carrot Cake, me, and Sonata will have the special of the day, with 2 cookie mint explosive strawberry milkshakes. And the classic pepper and chocolate cupcakes." Spike knowing full well the recipes, since Spike passed most of his afternoon after school on Sugarcube Corner, made Sonata look surprised at him. "Okay, I will bring your order the soon as possible, please enjoy your stay and have some romantic time." At the moment Mr. Cake left the couple, Spike looked weirdly at the boy who was still smiling at his own girlfriend. "Chavo, you sometimes are impossible." Sonata sighed as she looked at her boyfriend and understood his confusion. "If there is one thing I know for sure Spike, is the fact that Chavo loves food. He would eat a lot of everything he could." "Wow, I never thought I could see somebody being capable of that," Spike said surprised, as Chavo glanced at him, and before he could reply, a voice came near them. "That's because Chavo has suffered from hunger most of the time of his childhood." A male and mature voice made Spike's eyes go wide open and made a look to his side and found the tall man who was looking at the boy with a resolute face of both respect and friendship. "And whenever he had an opportunity of food in front of him, he would eat it, everything he could to fulfill his stomach." Then, Miss Florinda who sat beside her lovely company, she smiled at the young love between the couples around them. "Miss Florinda, professor Sausage." Both Chavo, Patty, and Sonata greeted at the same time, and Spike who was surprised, then stop his tracks as he noticed the name of the old man. Not just Spike, but the professor who was smiling, suddenly stop his smile and it turned into a deep frown. "ta, ta, ta, taaaaaaa, TA." The authoritative voice of the professor not just made the trio cringe, but Spike had a shrive on his own spine as he looked at the teacher in respect. "Sorry professor Girafales." The trio said as they actually stretched the back of their heads sheepishly. Spike noticed that the teacher seemed to be used by the slips provocations like that, but he then felt the glance of the big professor who seemed to smile as he look at Sonata. "I'm glad the young Chavo is growing up with more friends, it seems that whenever we go problems would come for us." Professor Girafales actually chuckled, as he could see their desserts were being served as the lovely woman smiled kindly at him. "Oh, it would just end this day perfectly if." "Don't you want to go home and have one more cup of coffee?" Miss Florinda said as she looked at him with hearts in her eyes. "If that wouldn't intrude too much." Professor Girafales said as he kissed the hands of Miss Florinda who seemed so happy to be with him. "Of course not." She smiled, as both of them seemed to be in deep love. As the professor and the restaurant owner seemed to remain in their seats and in deep love. The 2 couples next to them watched their interaction in silence. "That's..." Chavo said as he looked at Patty. "It's the dream I think about us... for 10 years, professor Girafales and Miss Florinda have done this interaction from every moment they have to meet each other." "I feel you, bro." Spike had to confess, that man was a legend, to be capable of court and stay with her with the same love for 10 years, was really admirable. He looked at Sonata, and he wishes that if he had half of the same energy as Girafales to show love to the girl in front of him, he would be happy. Giggling from the way both boys talked, Sonata and Patty kissed their cheeks, making both blush like tomatoes. "OUCH, OUCH, OUCH, OUCH." Suddenly a shout came from beside a few tables behind them, they turned their backs, and to Spike's surprise, he found Rainbow Dash as he was on a date with one of her soccer teammates, she felt like being beaten with a... paper bag? By a grizzled old man? "Cut it out, man, what is in that bag?" "It's your not damn busyness. I'm here to make sure that your leg fracture wouldn't get any worse." The old man, said as he touched his glasses, while the rainbow-haired girl rolled her eyes. "Well, of course, you would doc... But I'm fine, I just need to be here for to eat something neat, then stay at home during the day, tomorrow will be fine." Rainbow Dash, smiled like she already guessed she wouldn't be like that too long. "If you think that, then maybe you should get ready to have patience, because the time your fracture would be cured, actually it's for... 2 months." The doctor said the final words, as she was with her closed eyes and then her eyes went wide open as her own mind shattered like glass, which made her look panic. "WOA, WOA, WOA, WOA. What do you mean 2 months? Doc, don't you have any kind of medicine which could fix my leg or something like that?" Rainbow Dash couldn't help but made the worst decision of her life. "I mean, the science has developed a lot after a century you were alive..." As the doctor was happy, suddenly his face turned into a deep frown, and he uttered just one question. "Are you insuniating that I'm old?" Doctor Chapatin has just one that he hates in his entire life. "No, no, no... I'm an educated person... But I think at the time you cured your medicines, you actually used stones and bones as tools. HAHAHAHAHAH." Rainbow Dash used the perfect moment to make a joke, but sooner she regretted it as she feared the power of the paper bag being hit on her face. "OUCH, OUCH, OUCH, SORRY, SORRY, MY BAD, MY BAAAAADD" Spike at that moment, noticed, that his day wasn't going to be any normal.
