It was a sunny day. Perfect for Hearts and Hooves day! Yes, perfect. The town was decorated with all sorts of pink banner and heart cutouts. Cause Pink is so awesome. Apparently so. Everypony was excited. There were couple specials going on at the cafes. Two pony games at the mini golf place. Who takes their date Mini Golfing? Golf is so boring. It's so the guy can stand behind the girl and show her how to swing. I'd much rather swing dance or Tango. Yes, yes, so thrilling.
That night in the town square, there was to be a dance. The stage was already set up and the dance floor laid out. Isn't the town square more of a circle? It is! But I guess they call it that for formal reasons. The tables and chairs were to be set up later. Most of the speaker equipment was set up as well.
At the moment, Pinkie and Discord were very busy helping the Cakes at the Bakery. It was craziness! But fun, a good kind of chaos, not the kind your friends made that one other time. They said sorry. Yes, they did. Moving on. It was always hectic before and during Hearts and Hooves day. Customers rushing in and out. All the tables were full. Breaks were taken in a cycle so the baking could continue. It was awful hot in there. Yeah, I had to keep a water bottle by me. It was crazy running around and still having to be calm enough to decorate. Yeah, so awful.
What about the rest of my friend? What were they doing? Applejack was selling her own pastries, Twilight was loaning out books, And blushing about the content. Rainbow Dash was managing the weather, Rarity was doing last touch ups on outfits and quick repairs, I wonder what kind of naughty attire she had to come up with? and Fluttershy was managing some of the park animals so they don't accidentally ruin a date. That sounds like a fun prank to do. It does.
I would ask if you two want to tell the story with how much you're talking but you'll probably ruin it. Hey! Or get off topic. But... Or say rude things about people. Maybe.
It was a lovely day, if I say so myself. But I didn't get to see most of it. I was stuck in the kitchen of Sugarcube corner, helping out. Cause that's what I do now. I help ponies. And to make up for breaking the oven last month. Gah, I fixed it! Anyway, everypony was all lovey dovey yatta yatta. It was that night that the fun began! How about last week when Pinkie shot you down as being her date? That wasn't fun! And, and it was a misunderstanding! She would have loved to be my date but she had to work. So there. Humph. It was pretty fun to me. You got all depressed.
That night was warm. Perfect for a stroll with you special somepony. Not so much for dancing. Woo, does the dance floor get hot! And I'm not just talking about my dancing. Bam! The sound system was all set up and the place was fully decorated. Everypony in town for the most part was gathered around to enjoy the event. Pinkie and I were going to tear it up! We closed up the shop for the Cakes as they went to drop of the kids with what ever loser couldn't get a date that day. Don't say that! Anyway, everypony was there for the event. But, it was soon apparent something was wrong. It was almost time and the band hadn't shown up. Pinkie, the experienced party planner, went to the event coordinators to see what was wrong. They really should have consulted me. I know all about parties and backup plans for if things go wrong. I always have a backup plan. They didn't want to bother you cause you had to work in the bakery that day. But I did a lot of other consulting with the other places doing events! Yes, but this would have needed you to be there that day. Still, they should have talked to me. Yeah, yeah, they should have. But they didn't and you went to see what was wrong.
The band that was suppose to play that night was stuck miles away. The train they were on had broken down. They were coming by carriage but were still at least two hours away. They're be coming around the mountain when they come. Exactly. The staff were upset because they would have to shut down the event. And that's were we came in!
I volunteered to fill in until either the band came or another could be rounded up. And I couldn't just leave her all alone on that big ol' stage. So, I helped out with my superb singing. Everyone was so surprised when we came on stage. They really didn't know what to expect. Then the music started to play and we sang our hearts out. Yeah! It was fine. We sang a song for the Cakes. Want to hear it? Not really. Come on Grey! It's fun. You ready Dissy? When you are.
We were on stage and took a moment tell the crowd, "This one goes out to my family, The Cakes!" They were all teary eyed and embarrassed, giggle.
They then commenced to sing Honey and the Bee by Owl City.
How wonderful, you got to sing a song. We sang a whole bunch others, want to hear? No. Maybe later then.
It ended up being a good show. Who would doubt it? In the end, the band never got there in time.Which is kinda sad all except we got to sing all night long. What did you two do after the show?
What do you mean? There was still plenty of time after the show to do something for Hearts and Hooves day. So what did you do?
Oh, we went on a walk to cooled down. We had talked to a lot of people after the show. We talked about how fun the show was and how fun it'll be to do it next year. It was nice. That's it? You went for a nice little walk.
Well, we were kinda tired after working all day and then putting on a show. Yeah, but this is you and Discord. How tired could you get? You both have more energy than the town combined, each.
That is true but what is also true is that we don't kiss and tell. You might not but Pinkie will. Tell me, Tell me, Tell me, Tell me. Oh well...
Pinkie! You can leave. It's going to be girl talk anyway. Some how, that doesn't leave me feeling reassured.
Good, he's gone. Now, what happened that night, hmm? Giggle.
