Finding a Friend Part 3

Twilight was trotting back to her library, with that book she was reading before in her face. She was so eager on reading it, that she simply couldn't put it down. Even if she ran into somepony. But she was so intrigued on the magnificent studies that Starswirl the Bearded did back in the day. He created almost all of the magic that unicorns use today.

After what seemed short minutes to Twilight, she finally arrived at her home. She used part of her magic to open the door in front of her, and went inside. She heard Spike humming in the kitchen, and put her things down on the sofa. Spike heard Twilight enter the room, and stopped what he was doing to talk to her.

"Hey Twilight." Spike said to her.

"Hello Spike." Twilight replied as she sniffed the air, "Boy, something smells delicious."

"Yeah, it's this new recipe that I got from Pinkie Pie when I went to Sugercube Corner earlier. She said it's called 'The Pinkie Pie'."

"The Pinkie Pie?" Twilight asked.

"Yup, it has the mixtures of all of the pie's, but with some pink dough."

"Wait, how did she get pink dough?"

"Beats me, but I tried it, and it's actually pretty good. Here, try some."

Spike then took a slice of 'The Pinkie Pie', and held it out for Twilight to taste, which she then put the bit of pie in her mouth. She chewed it for a while, then swallowed it.

"Wow!" Twilight exclaimed.

"I know, that's what I said!"

Twilight then went to sit down at the table in the center of the kitchen, and waited for Spike to finish up the pie he was making. She insisted on making the food for herself and Spike, but since she had a lot on her schedule, Spike just started to cook for the both of them. Neither of them talked for some time, and Spike finally broke it.

"So, how was your day today Twilight?" Spike asked, as he was finished up making 'The Pinkie Pie'.

"I bumped into Big Macintosh today. Literally." she replied.

"Isn't that Applejack's older brother?"

"Yeah, I set up a schedule for me and him to spend the evening tomorrow."

"Hmm."

Twilight was curious on that "Hmm".

"Is something wrong?" she asked him.

"Well, I rarely see him around in Ponyville and he's was always at Sweet Apple Acres all the time." he told her.

"That's the reason I wanted to hang out with him. It seemed that he didn't have any friends."

"Kinda like a date?"

Twilight's face quickly became red.

"Absolutely not a date!" she told him.

"Okay, okay. So you two are just hanging out?"

"Yes."

"Okay well, where are you guys going to hang out?" he asked her.

Twilight completely forgot that she didn't mention on where they were going.

"Oh no!" she exclaimed.

"What, what is it?"

"I forgot to tell Big Macintosh where I live. I only told him the time!"

"Well what are you gonna do?"

"I guess I'll wake up early, and meet him at the farm."

Spike thought for a moment, and told Twilight, "That kinda sounds stalker like if you ask me."

"How so?"

"Well," Spike began, "your going to be waking early in the morning, going down to Sweet Apple Acres, and asking Big Macintosh to spend the entire day with him."

"Look who's talking." Twilight chuckled a little.

Spike blushed, "Hey! Just because I like Rarity a lot; doesn't make me a stalker!"

"Well, you do go to her boutique quite often."

Spike didn't have a comeback at all. "Alright, you got me there. But a least she actually needs help making dresses. I can see the stress that she goes through."

"Yeah, I suppose so."

Spike then went back to the oven, and pulled out another pie. He then slice it up; using his claws, into six different pieces. He then put two of the slices on two plates, and brought them over to the table. He set one down in front of Twilight, and one at his place at the table. They sat and ate in silence again. Then, Twilight got an idea.

"Hey, maybe we can go on a picnic!" she said to Spike with some pie in her mouth.

"A picnic?" he asked.

"Yeah, I can bring some food at the park, with some of this 'Pinkie Pie', and we'll have a nice picnic together."

"Don't you think it's a little too soon for that?"

"No, why do you?"

"Not really, but if that's what you wanna do."

Twilight smiled, "Thanks Spike."

"What for?" he asked.

"For baking some more 'Pinkie Pie' for me and Big Macintosh!"

Spike looked at her with a 'are you kidding me?' face.

"I'll give you some tasty gems." Twilight said as she held out a bowl of all types of gems.

Spike quickly gave in, "Oh, alright."

"Thanks number one assistant."
