"So, Twi? How do I look?"
Twilight looks up from her work and sees Spike as he stands near a doorway. He has the outfit that she had gotten from Rarity on as well as a fedora cap with a red feather. She smiles at him.
"You look very nice Spike. The hat matches it nicely, although I think it would be best if you went without it."
Spike takes the hat off and looks at it. "Hmm, I guess you're right. Maybe next time." He surmises before hanging it on a hat rack nearby.
"So, Spike are you excited about the dance?" Twilight asks the sharply dressed dragon.
Spike nods. "Very...but..."
Twilight notices him frown and look down at his outfit and sighs slightly.
"What's on your mind Spike?" Twilight says concerned, having a small idea.
Spike looks at her. "What if...what if I mess this up? I mean just yesterday I was trying to be with the mare that I thought was the only mare for me...and now I am going to my first school dance with somepony else..."
She walks over to him with a small frown. "You have to move on Spike. Don't think about Rarity anymore and try to enjoy yourself."
Spike nods. "You're right. I just have to forget about her."
Twilight nuzzles him with a smile. "There you go."
He enjoys the affection for a moment before he notices the time says 7:30.
"Well, Time for me to head out. wish me luck Twilight!" Spike says happily as he walks towards the exit.
"I wish you all the luck in Equestria Spike. Make sure not to stay out too late."
Spike smirks. "No guarantees." And with that he exits the castle and heads towards the school for the dance.
Spike makes it there rather quickly, excited and a little nervous as this was his first dance. He also doesn’t want to be late to greet his date. As he gets close, he notices quite a few fillies and colts walking hoof and hoof into the building. The music can also be heard from outside.
Spike stands by the entrance and waits patiently for his date to arrive. As he waits, he hears somepony call his name.
"Spike?"
He turns and sees three rather gorgeous mares in dresses. Apple Bloom, whom is wearing a red flowing dress that shines brightly while having her signature bow in her hair; Sweetie Belle, whom is wearing a light green dress with diamonds encrusted around the edges and flower circlet in her mane; and Scootaloo, whom is wearing a dark purple dress with a pearl necklace and her hair done up to have a curl that rests above her right eye.
Spike stares at them in awe as they come close.
"Hey Spike! Didn't know you were coming to the dance." Scootaloo says as they come up to him.
Spike, however, is still in awe. "Wow, you three look amazing."
The three mares blush at his compliment. "Heh, thanks Spike. You look great too." Sweetie Belle comments.
Spike smiles at that. "Thanks. So where are your dates?"
Scootaloo rolls her eyes as she speaks up. "Well, my coltfriend isn't here yet. I knew he was gonna be late."
Spike shakes his head. "That guy is never on time for anything."
"I know right!" Scootaloo whines with irritation.
"What about you two?" Spike says as he looks at the other two mares.
Sweetie Belle blushes. "Well..."
Before she can finish, Apple Bloom places a hoof around her. "We are each other dates."
Spike's eyebrows raise at that statement. "Does that mean you two are dating?"
"Eeyup!" Apple Bloom says happily.
Spike is surprised. He never knew the two like each other. "How long?"
"Two days ago." Sweetie Belle admits bashfully.
Spike merely nods at that. Then he hears hooves from behind.
"Scoots!"
He turns and sees Scootaloo's coltfriend rushing over.
"About time you got here Rumble! You never make it on time." Scootaloo says annoyed.
"Well I'm here though aren't I? That should count for something." He says as he puts a hoof around his marefriend. He notices Spike and smiles.
"Sup Spike. Nice fit. Didn't know you were coming to the school dance."
Spike shrugs. "Well it was kinda short notice."
"There you are!"
Spike turns and sees his date walking over, along with another mare. This mare has a sleek black dress on that fits her rather elegantly and perfectly. She also has a bead necklace that matches the frames on her glasses and the dress hat she's wearing. The hat also has diamonds encrusted on it as it sits atop her rather long flowing mane.
Spike has to admit, the two mares look stunning, his date even more so.
The mares take notice of the ponies with Spike and frown.
"H-Hey Diamond." Spike says with a small blush as they come over.
The mares and colt are surprised at Spike's reaction to seeing them.
"Hello Spike. I want to introduce you to my best friend, Silver Spoon." She gives him a smile and wave. "We will both be your dates for the dance." Diamond says simply.
"Wait, they are your dates?!" Scootaloo says loudly and incredulously.
Spike is surprised as well. He thought he was lucky just having Diamond, and now this new mare is his date as well! "That makes two!" He smiles, thinking his luck has gotten better ever since he has moved on.
"O-Okay." Spike manages to say after the initial surprise. He then straightens up and ushers towards the entrance.
"Shall we go in ladies?"
Silver Spoon giggles slightly as Diamond speaks up. "Yes, let's. Later blank flanks and company." They then head inside, Spike a little confused at what she said but shrugs it off, happy that he has two dates for the dance.
This might turn out better than I thought.
Meanwhile, the three mares and colt stare after them in surprise.
"Well, is Spike a playa or what?" Rumble says cheekily, earning him a punch in the leg by his marefriend.
"Shut up."
