	As Spike walked to Applejack's house in Sweet Apple Acres, he was imagining all of the work she needed help with. 
Spike is a helpful dragon and will do anything to help his friends. As he arrived he knocked on the door, and Applejack opened it.
"Why howdy there Spike, What do you need help with, sugar cube?" asked Applejack in a polite and grateful manner. "Oh hey AJ, listen Rarity is in Baltimare and Twilight is in Canterlot, So I came here and I was wondering if you needed any help around the farm, bucking trees and what not" Responded Spike. "Well I do need help picking up the apples that fall on the ground when I'm bucking the trees, why not come inside spike" Replied Applejack. 
"Oh that's great AJ, can we start now?"asked Spike.  "Oh, uh sure, come inside Spike." 
The two friends were bonding and started working on the farm.
It took them three hours but they were finally done. 
"WELLP, THAT'S ALL OF THEM!" Yelled out Applejack as they were rapping up the last batch up apples for the day. Spike picked up all the apples that dropped on the floor, picked them up, and put them in the buckets. 
"Hey Spike, would you like some apple cider?" Applejack asked Spike. "sure I would love some apple cider, Thanks AJ."
"Don't mention it Spike, It's what good friends do." 
As Applejack gave the cider to Spike, Spike saw something in her eyes. He saw something so beautiful he can't explain, something he's never seen before not even in Rarity's eyes. Applejack caught Spike blushing as he looked her in the eyes. 
"uh, Spike are you okay there, sugar cube?" Applejack asked. "oh, sorry AJ." Spike said as it woke him up from his daydream.
"Don't worry about it Spike, I just want to see if you are okay that's all." " Oh, Thank you AJ I really like how you care for me, that's really sweet of you." "That's what friends do, hey Spike, do you have any plans tomorrow?" "No, why" replied Spike. "Oh, I was wondering if you would like to come tomorrow for Diner?" Asked Applejack. "Sure Applejack I would love to come to your diner and I don't really have any plans this weekend." "Oh that is just great sugar cube, I can't wait, come around 7 and come with a big appetite for apples." "okay Applejack, Bye see you tomorrow then." Spike said as he left the house waving at Applejack. Applejack waved back at Spike with a big smile. 
Spike is now, walking home from AJ's house. With a really concerned expression on his face as he walked to his bed.
