Chapter 2

As Princess Luna's Beautiful moon shines across Ponyville, Lightning is in his home being helped with his tuxedo by Fluttershy. He hated wearing the tuxedo but he kept reminding himself he was doing this for Scootaloo. Fluttershy finished tying the tie around his neck and stepped back and smiled at her son.

"Oh, Lightning you really do look handsome." Fluttershy said gently as Lightning softly smiled in response.

"Thanks, Momma, I think I'm ready to go." He said softly

Fluttershy nodded her head and went over to the counter in the kitchen. She then returned to Lightning and gave him some bits to help pay for his dinner.

"Alright, sweetie, your all set. I hope you have a good time tonight." Fluttershy said as she softly smiled. She couldn't help but be proud of her son, he was growing up fast.

"Thank You, Momma, I'll be home later tonight." He said before hugging his mother and nuzzling her cheek.

Fluttershy gently kissed Lightning in the forehead and he ran out the door while shouting goodbye to her. Before he went to Rainbows House he quickly flew into Ponyville to pick up something for her. He paid the pony his bits for his gift and made his way up into the clouds.

It took him a few minutes, but he finally arrived at Rainbow Dash's house. He knocked on the door and waited for Someone to answer while his gift was behind his back. When the door finally Lightning eyes went wide with amazement. Standing at the door was Scootaloo. She was wearing a light blue dress with the same design as she had for the Grand Galloping Gala. Her mane was also combed into the same style from the Gala and around her neck as usual was the necklace Lightning gave her.

Scootaloo closed the door behind her and softly smiled at Lightning.

"You look beautiful Scootaloo." He said gently. He then handed her his gift which was a bouquet of flowers.

"Thank You Lightning, you know I'm actually not starting to mind wearing a dress." She said gently and happily.

Lightning stepped back a bit at what she just said.

"Who are you and what have you done with Scootaloo!?" He joked making Scootaloo giggle while playfully punching him.

Lightning handed her his gift which was a bouquet of flowers. Scootaloo smiled as she took the flowers and smelled them.

"Aw..Thank You Lightning." She said sweetly before kissing him on the cheek. "So what are we going to do Tonight?"

"Well, Auntie Pinkie has made a nice dinner at Sugarcube Corner." Lightning responded while smiling softly at Scootaloo.

"Sounds like a plan, let's go." Scootaloo said before spreading her wings.

Lightning took her hoof in his and the two flew to Sugarcube Corner while wearing smiles on there faces.

When they arrived at their location, Lightning opened the door for Scootaloo and allowed her inside. Scootaloo giggled a little bit before rolling her eyes. She walked in the and grabbed Lightning by the arm on the way in. When they were inside they saw the place was abandoned and quiet until Pinkie Pie bounced into the room.

"Well there you two are right this way please." She said happily before trotting over to a nearby table.

Lightning and Scootaloo followed her over to the table and Lightning pulled out a chair for Scootaloo. She blushed a little bit before sitting down. Lightning gently pushed her chair in for her before sitting down himself. Pinkie handed them each a tall glass of ice cold water to drink before leaving to prepare their dinner. Lightning and Scootaloo smiled at each other for a moment before talking about whatever came to their minds. They talked about flying, the Wonderbolts, the prank they pulled on Prince Blueblood at the Grand Galloping Gala, and many other things.

Pinkie soon arrived with two large bows of salad. The two ate their dinner while talking and laughing. They were happily enjoying each others company like they always. They always enjoyed hanging out with Applebloom and Sweetie Belle but they also enjoyed the times when it was just the two of them. Pinkie eventually brought them desert which was two huge slices of chocolate cheesecake. Lightning and Scootaloo liked their lips before devouring their pieces of cake in a matter of seconds.

Once their meal was finished, Lightning pulled out the bits he had in his pocket and gave them to Pinkie.

The hyper pink pony shook her head gently pushed back Lightning's hoof.

"You don't need to pay me sweetie, It's on the house." She said gently before wishing the two a good night.

Lightning and Scootaloo left Sugarcube Corner and smiled at each other. They decided to take a walk in the park before going home. When they arrived they walked down the sidewalk to the tree where Lightning asked Scootaloo to be his special somepony for Hearts and Hooves day. The moon shined on the lake as Scootaloo took something out of a small pocket on her dress. She pulled out a small silver box and handed it to Lightning. He opened it and gasped at what he saw inside. It was the necklace that Fluttershy gave him for his birthday, the same necklace that his father had destroyed.

"I remember you telling me about how upset you were when your dad broke your necklace. So I asked Rarity to make you a new one so you could be happy again." Scootaloo said softly

Lightning said nothing as tears streamed down his face and he put the necklace around his neck. He then wrapped his forelegs around Scootaloo and gave her a loving hug.

"Thank you so much Scootaloo! You're the best fillyfriend a colt could ask for!" Lightning said happily.

Scootaloo felt small tears form in her eyes as wrapped her forelegs around Lightning and said, "Your welcome, Lightning, and I couldn't ask for a sweeter, more awesome coltfriend than you."

The two kept their forelegs wrapped around one another as they looked into each others eyes. The moon shined beautifully in Scootaloo's lavender eyes as well as Lightning's blue ones. Without saying anything, both Lightning and Scootaloo closed their eyes and slowly brought their heads towards each other. Their inched closer and close to on another until their lips finally met.

The kiss was much longer that the one at the Hearths Warming Eve party but unlike that one they didn't want to break this kiss. After about a minute the kiss was finally broken and Scootaloo softly smiled at Lightning before laying her head under his chin.

"Lightning, I've had the best night ever, do you know why?"

"Why?" Lightning responded curiously.

Scootaloo looked into his eyes and smiled at him lovingly and said, "because, I got to spend it with you."

She then kissed him on the lips again before she rested head back underneath his chin and let out a sigh of Happiness.

Lightning said nothing as he softly nuzzled her. The two stayed in each others embrace for a few more minutes before going over to the tree and carving their names into a tree and making a heart in the center. Lightning then sat down underneath the tree and Scootaloo sat beside him. She snuggled into him and rested her head against his chest and let out another sigh of happiness. Lightning softly smiled at her before wrapping a foreleg around her and laying his head on top of hers. He closed his and let his own sigh of happiness as Princess Luna's beautiful moon shined across the lake.
