Suddenly, a thought came to Creo, which made his smile disappear. "Pinkie, I was just wondering—are you still going to have that party for me now that it won't be a surprise?"
"Oh of course, silly! I was just all gloomy before because it won't be as special as I wanted it to be!" Pinkie's face then got a little saddened upon saying those words.
Creo looked sad at seeing Pinkie was sad, so he wanted to do something to cheer her up. "You shouldn't worry about it not being special, Pinkie. It's already special because it's my first welcoming party ever!"
"It is??" Pinkie replied in surprise.
"Yes, it is! That makes it special!"
"You're right! That is special! You're really right! More right than you could be!" Pinkie exclaimed happily!"
"Umm...yeah!"Creo replied. Pinkie hopped up and down with glee, which made Creo happy. "It's going to be the most special party I've ever had!"
Pinkie instantly stopped hopping. "It will?" she asked while suspended in midair.
"Yes, of course! I haven't had a whole lot of parties in my life, and let me tell you, they have mostly been pretty ordinary."
Pinkie turned around while still in midair. "I can't believe it! How could a party not be totally fun??"
"Well, my life back home wasn't too exciting. That's why I chose to go out in the world to see if I could come up with new and interesting ideas for my stories."
"Well, you can't get more exciting than Ponyville! This town is like a super-duper party with excitement cake and fun-tastic frosting!" Pinkie exclaimed as she zipped around the room, popping out of random places around Creo.
Creo chuckled as he watched Pinkie popping out of random places. "And I'm sure Ponyville owes most of that to you!"
"You really think so??" Pinkie said as she appeared next to Creo.
"Oh, absolutely! After all, you're one in a million, Pinkie Pie!" he exclaimed as he put his hoof around Pinkie's neck.
"One in a million? A million what?" Pinkie asked inquisitively. She then gasped. "Are there a million Pinkie Pies??"
"What? No—I meant that you're a one in a million pony! That means you're a truly unique and special pony!"
"Awww, thanks!" Pinkie said blushing a little. "But I'm sure you would say that about all my friends, since they're all so special!"
"You couldn't be more—" Creo stopped, realizing he didn't want to repeat what happened before. "I mean, you're absolutely right, Pinkie. But I think of you and all of your friends as being special in their own special way. They way you're special is that you're so fun to be around and you're such a great party pony!"
"Awww, even more thanks again, Creo!" Pinkie exclaimed.
Creo smiled, and then he put his hoof on Pinkie's shoulder. "But I think what's most special about you is that you try so hard to be a good friend to others, like throwing this party for me just for being new. It's a very kind and generous thing for you to do, as not just anypony would be willing to do so much for friendship. That's what makes you such a great friend and a great pony," Creo said contently, and then he smiled.
Pinkie was absolutely silent. She looked like she had froze. She was also blushing more than before. "Gosh..." Pinkie thought in her mind. "That was the nicest thing anypony has ever said to me. I mean, lots of ponies say nice things to me, but what he said is, like, 10 times nicer than the nice things normally said to me!" Pinkie's eyes turned towards Creo. "Creo is so much different than any other friend I've ever had. He's nice like my friends, and it makes me feel super happy when he's nice to me, but a whole lot more than when anypony else is nice to me. Ugh...my brain is starting to hurt from all this," Pinkie put her right hoof on the right side of her head and made a distressed look on her face.
Creo looked and saw Pinkie looking distressed. "Are you okay, Pinkie?"
"Huh??" Pinkie said as she snapped back to normal.
"You don't look like your normal, upbeat, overly-happy self."
"Oh, don't worry, Creo. I'm as fit as a fiddle!" she said with optimism.
Creo didn't look entirely convinced. "Are you sure? You look like you have something on your mind."
"Trust me, Creo," she said as she put her hoof on Creo's shoulder. "There's only one thing on my mind right now—and that's throwing you your welcoming party!" she exclaimed as she slammed a party hat on Creo's head. Pinkie then pulled a party hat and party favor out of her hair and placed the hat on her head and the favor in her mouth.
"Wait a minute, Pinkie!" Creo says as Pinkie blows on her party favor, to which she then stops and turns her attention to Creo. "Are we having the party now?"
"Of course, Creo! Parties are always more fun when they're happening instead of before they're happening!" she replies ecstatically.
Creo was silent for a few moments. "...well, I can't argue with you there."
"Then don't argue! Just PARTY!!" Pinkie started hopping around and blowing on her party favor. Creo watched her hopping around, and then he just shrugged his shoulders and happily joined Pinkie in partying it up.
Creo and Pinkie did many things at the party. They bobbed for apples with Creo getting one apple in his mouth, and Pinkie getting 3 in her mouth, to which Creo smiled and applauded. Pinkie bounced around the room, tossing confetti all around, and Creo accidentally slipped on the confetti and fell down while following Pinkie. Pinkie worriedly ran over to him to see if he was okay, , and Creo sneakily used his magic to take a bunch of confetti and toss it all at Pinkie, causing her to fall down on her back. Creo went over to her, and she just laughed at Creo's great prank, and he laughed along with her. Creo and Pinkie were about to start eating Pinkie's cake. Creo used his magic to take one piece for himself, and then Pinkie ate the rest of the cake in one big bite, with Creo staring at her with a frozen look of surprise on his face. Later, Pinkie had Creo had started dancing to Pinkie's great party music. First they were dancing independently, but then as they got next to each other, they started dancing the same moves as each other. They were dancing and bouncing, and then Pinkie reached over and grabbed Creo's front hooves, and she started to spin around while still holding onto him. She spun faster and faster, and looked like a miniature pink tornado. And then she let go and collapsed onto the ground, laughing. Her laughing was soon interrupted by a crashing sound, and she looked to see Creo, who had smashed into the wall. Pinkie worriedly ran up to Creo as he dizzily got off the wall. He then shook of the dizziness and looked at Pinkie, and he laughed. Pinkie saw that he was okay, and she laughed along with him.
