Another Chapter?!?!?!?!?!
The Next Day...
Button and Spike knocked onto the door of the Carousel Boutique, the home of the two fellow ponies Rarity and Sweetie Belle. Both colts (if Spike is a colt - I don't know what I'd call him) were getting butterflies in their stomachs, fear taking each of them. However, one fear was in both of them in particular - the fear of rejection.
After what felt like an eternity (it was really only 15 seconds - silly boys), a purple-maned mare opened the door, greeted by the heart-warming smiles of Button Mash and Spike.
"Hello boys!" smiled Rarity. "Why are you knocking at the door at 9:00am?"
"Is that the time?" asked Spike. "I didn't realise it was that early," he chuckled. If I'm gonna impress her, the least I can do is make her do is make her laugh. Rarity nodded, giving a small laugh.
"Well, I was wondering if-" Button was interrupted by a claw, stuffed in his mouth by none other than Spike.
"What Button was trying to say was if it was okay for the two of us to go on a double date, me going with you, and Button with Sweetie Belle?" said Spike, sweating.
"I-I'm sorry Spike, I just don't think I'd have the time. Of course, I'd love to go on a date... it's just that, with my profession, it would be hard for me to fit enough time to spend time with you. I'm happy for Button to go on a date with my little sister, however whether or not she'll want to go with Button is entirely her decision." explained Rarity. She whispered, in a lower tone," Besides, I've been having secret fantasies of Button and Sweetie Belle... partaking in various... activities."
"W-what was that?" questioned Button, hearing only mumbles from Rarity's quiet monotone.
"Nothing dear," lied Rarity, nearly regreting she'd said that out loud. "You can come inside to ask Sweetie Belle if she wants to go out with you."
"Thank you." replied Button, entering the Carousel Boutique. "Spike, don't you want to come in?"
"N-no thanks. Good luck." mumbled Spike, slowly crying and walking back to the Castle.
"Spike, just remember - you'll always be my Spikey Wikey!" shouted Rarity, trotting over to him and giving him a hug. Spike shrugged this off out of anger, and started walking towards the Castle.
"Okay." replied Button, feeling a tinge of guilt. He knew it wasn't exactly his fault that Spike had been rejected, but he knew it added to the burden, as he himself knew that Spike had been rejected.
Spike entered the Castle, his eyes nearly being blinded because of how shiny the crystal was. He was surprised to see Apple Bloom. She started to smile, however nothing would cheer Spike up.
"Look Spike, I know what happened with you and Rarity. I just want you to know that I don't think you and Rarity are ment to be! However, I'm sure someone loves you in this world - they are just waiting for the right time to tell you." started Apple Bloom.
"The if someone loves me, why haven't they told me yet!?!?" shouted Spike. He started to weep, quietly at first. His cries grew and grew, until there were skittle-sized tears coming out, dripping onto the solid crystal floor. Apple Bloom started to hug him, trying to warm that stone heart that was petrified by Rarity.
