Anniversaries

Chapter 1

I'm so excited! Me and Dashie's anniversary is in less than a week! That's four days, or ninety-six hours, or five thousand, seven hundred and sixty minutes or...I don't even know how many seconds! I can't believe that it's already so close to half a year! It fells like it was only a couple of days. Time does fly when your having fun,after all.

The party is going to so much fun! I haven't even started on it yet, but I just know that it's gonna be amazing! There's gonna a giant cake, tons of balloons,, and all of our friends are going to be there! I even saved some of that cider that Dashie loves so much. It's probably gonna be one of the biggest parties that I have ever thrown, ever!

Okay, maybe not my biggest party ever, that was the wedding reception, but it's still going to be big! Well maybe it should be a little smaller. Mrs. Cake told me that anniversaries are supposed to be private.... I can work with that! It could be a really small party and I'll just invite the girls. Or maybe it could just be me and Dashie, something romantic.

I don't really know how to do romantic things, and Dashie doesn't like the "sappy" stuff either, but I can make it work.. May be I could ask Rarity for help! She knows all about fancy, romantic stuff. I should go over to the boutique today and ask for some tips. It may turn out to be a little too soft for Dashie, but I'm sure that she'll love it.

Speaking of Dashie, I haven't seen her at all this morning. I went over to her cloud house this morning and she wasn't there. At first, I thought that she was outside doing weather work, but the skies were clear and she should have been done already. I'm sure that it's nothing to worry about, though! she's Probably practicing her tricks or napping at Applejack's. I would go and check, but I have to finish my shift at Sugar cube corner, and after that I have to go see Rarity. I'm sure that she'll come see me later, anyway.

......................................................................................................................................................................

Okay, this was a little odd. Dashie usually comes by at around noon and keeps me company until my shift ends. Now it was around three and I hadn't seen her. I didn't really worry about it. There have been times where she was to busy to come over, but she usually finds the time to tell me.

My shift was about was about to end so I asked Mrs. Cake to leave a bit earlier than usual. I wanted to get a head start on that anniversary party, and that meant heading over to Rarity's as soon as possible. Maybe I would see Dashie on the way there!

Once Mrs. Cake let me go, the trip to the boutique began. When I got there almost all of the lights were off. Was she closed? Did I get here late? No, that couldn't be it. Even if I said hi to everypony I passed by , It would've only taken me thirty minutes to get here. Is something going on inside? Maybe if I look into one of the windows.

When I pressed my face to the glass I saw Rarity and....Dashie? What was she doing here? She never goes to the boutique without a reason. They looked like they were talking about something. Were they telling secrets? secrets are fun! But what kind of secrets were they telling? Was Dashie telling her about that one time in the forest? I made her Pinkie promise not to tell anyone about that! And she told Rarity of all people!? It's going to be all around town by tomorrow! If anyone confronts me about that tomorrow, Dashie won't-.

Were they hugging? That's okay. Friends hug friends all the time. Well at least I know that they're not telling secrets. Ponies don't hug each other when telling secrets. So what were they talking about? Maybe I could hear if I found a way to get inside. I opened the window just enough to crawl inside. I made sure to keep quiet until I got into earshot.

"I'm flattered that you chose me over the others, Rainbow Dash," Rarity told her.

"Well, you are the most experienced," Dashie replied.

Rarity giggled, "Oh, you make me blush." They both started laughing.

Dashie stopped laughing abruptly and said, "She can't know a thing about this."

"Who can't know about what?" I asked. They both screamed and jumped back a few feet. I don't know why they were scared. I mean, I was standing there for a while.

Once Dashie recovered from the shock, she asked, "Pinkie, how did you get here?"

"The window," I replied.

It was Rarity's turn to speak. "How much did you hear?"

"Only the part about somepony who's not supposed to know about this." I said. "What is "this" anyway? Is it a secret? I can keep secrets! If you tell me I-"

Dashie put her wing around me and got me to shut up. "Easy there Pinks," she chided. "It's nothing you have to worry about."

I nuzzled her wing. "Okay, Dashie,"

We stayed like that for a minute or to until Dashie eventually took her wing away. "I got some stuff to take care of,so I'll see ya later, okay Pinks?"

"Okay," I said reluctantly. I didn't want to her leave just yet, but if she had work to do, there was nothing that I could do to stop her. She gave me a kiss and then flew off. As I watched her fly away, I kept thinking that I was forgetting about something.

"Rarity!" I said aloud. I had forgotten that I was at her house!

"Yes, darling?" She asked.

"I need your help with a party."

She glanced around nervously. "I would love to help you, Pinkie, really," she began. "But...But I have a lot of work to do! I took on a big order that will take ages to complete. You know how it is."

We said our goodbyes and I made my way back to the bakery. On my way home, I began wonder about what Dashie was doing. She said that she was busy, but she never said exactly what she was doing.

"She's cheating on you."

Oh don't be silly! She would never do that! Besides, I thought I said that I was never going to listen to you ever again. You remember what happened on my birthday.

"Fine. Don't listen to me. You'll see things my way eventually."

No, I won't! I trust Dashie completely. And she would never do anything to hurt me.

"Are you sure?"

Absolutely.
