Tomber Amoureux
Days of Drama

Pinkie trotted over to the side of the room and checked the clock, her hooves ached and she was tired. The clock read 2:00AM. Pinkie groaned as she squinted in the darkness, the only light coming from the disco ball and the floor that was flashing different colors. Pinkie listened to the songs and slowly slouched onto the floor, her exhaustion taking over. This was her third party of the night, and she had only earned a few bits. She was awoken about 15 minutes later by DJ-Pon3, or as Pinkie called her: Vinyl Scratch.
"Vinyl? What happened?" Pinkie said, still very drowsy.
"You fell asleep at the party remember? I got the bits and put them in your jar by the way. What are you saving up for anyways?" Vinyl asked, curious to what the pink pony was doing. Pinkie smiled and finally got to her hooves to explain to Vinyl.

Twilight was shaken awake to see red puffy eyes. She quickly figured out that it was Spike. He had obviously been crying, sobbing even, about something.
"What's wrong Spike?" Twilight slowly sat up, rubbing her eyes. Spike simply handed her the paper and sniffed. Her eyes widened at the title: Elements of Love? Her eyes began to wonder down to the photos, one of which Rarity was looking at Applejack, who seemed to be blushing. This must be why Spike is so upset. I'll have to see exactly what happened, but probably another privacy invasion from FeatherWeight Twilight thought, she really wanted to talk more to his mother without being yelled at. She looked down and saw one more picture of Rainbow Dash giving flowers to Fluttershy. She looked to her side to see what Pinkie thought of the situation, but to her surprise, no one was in the bed but herself. Twilight knew that she would have to deal with this herself.
"Don't worry Spike, I'll get to the bottom of this." Twilight replied, sure of herself. Spike sniffed and nodded. Twilight handed him back the paper and he gripped it, his spines drooped.

The bags under Pinkie's eyes were starting to get more noticeable, as she was in the midst of throwing another party, for a colt named Button Mash. Most of the party consisted of them playing arcade games, so Pinkie took advantage of this situation and took a nap. When she awoke there was a note taped to her muzzle, with a few bits inside. They fell outside as Pinkie stood up and they made a satisfying clink! as they hit the ground. She read the note and smiled, this was one of the reasons she liked throwing parties so much.
Pinkie,
Thanks SOOOO much for the awesome party! I can't believe that you found all these cool arcade games that I could play. Your the best pony ever and I can't wait until my next birthday, I'll be sure to make sure that you can throw that one too!
After she read it, she noticed that the little colt left a few extra bits, and she couldn't be more thankful. She would have to remember the colt's name so that she could make his next birthday super-extra-spectacular! She slowly trotted over to a new Cafe so that she could get some coffee, which is something she rarely needed. As she walked in she noticed a Help Wanted sign. She was curious and decided that she would ask the waiter or waitress about it when they showed up. Just as she sat down an earth pony with a cream coat with navy blue and pink curly hair came to take her order.
"Bon-Bon? Is that you?" Pinkie asked, feeling very happy to see her old friend.
"Pinkie?!?" Bon-Bon looked up at the pink mare and smiled as she hugged her friend.
"What are you doing here?" Pinkie asked, curious but ecstatic to see Bon-Bon again.
"Just trying to make a couple extra bits. But the real question is what are you doing here? Why aren't you out there making everypony smile?" Bon-Bon asked, knowing that her friend had a bubbly personality.
"Same as you. I was actually wondering about the job opening." Pinkie said, hoping she could get this job, knowing that it would pay more then having a bunch of parties.
"Oh yeah, we need more ponies to cater the tables, seeing as I'm the only pony to do that. You can swing by at 6:00 to apply if you want." Bon-Bon replied, hoping that Pinkie could be her new co-worker.
"Oh that would be great! It's nice seeing you here!" Pinkie said, still excited to see her.
"Yeah! I'll just go get your coffee, and we can talk some more." the creamy mare said as she rushed to the back to make Pinkie coffee. Pinkie sighed, even though it was nice seeing Bon-Bon she was really tired and knew that she had to get back to the love of her life; Twilight. Bon-Bon came back with the coffee and placed it on the table.
"It was really nice talking with you, but I'm very tired and I have a mare at home that I need to get back too. I also need to get ready for the application, so maybe we can talk more then?" Pinkie suggested as she handed her a few bits and a tip. Bon-Bon nodded and Pinkie got up and sipped her coffee down in one go, and left the Cafe.

Twilight flew to her friends houses, and showed them the newspaper. As they were all appalled of such lack of personal privacy, they also admitted that they were dating. Twilight knew that Spike would be absolutely devastated and she would have to break the news to him. After they were done speaking about the newspaper, Twilight asked them to accompany her to the mother's house, naturally they agreed. So there they were, and Twilight once again knocked on the old door.
"It's me, Twilight. I know that you don't want us to come in, but we aren't taking no for an answer." the mare inside sighed and slowly opened the door...
