Chapter 4 (Part 1)

Author's Note:

Well here is chapter 4. Enjoy. And please no Negative comments.

“When the sun hits her eyes like a big pizza pie” I was singing in the kitchen while I made myself breakfast. I was extra happy, because I had a great plan for today. I had a plan to figure out Twilight’s feelings.

When Twilight came inside the room with a big smile, I grabbed Twilight around the neck and sang on. “El J’amore”

“Waw James, you’re happy… again.” Twilight said surprised.

“What? Is it so weird to see me happy?” I questioned her.

“No, but it’s just that you are extremely happy. Almost as optimistic as Pinkie.” Twilight answered.

I shook my head and placed a bowl with oats on the table.

“If I wouldn't know better, I’d say you’re in love.” Twilight said with a teasing smile.

‘shit’ I thought to myself, and I forced a smile. “euh… you wanna have some breakfast too?” I asked to change subject.
“No thanks. I already had.” She said.

I cocked my eyebrow. “How so?”

“I couldn't sleep tonight. So I got up really early, and I was quite hungry. So I already ate something. Hope you don’t mind.” Twilight answered.

“No, not at all. But just… did you have a bad dream or something?” I asked. I watched the clock, and saw that it was just seven O’clock.
“No. it’s just… I’m a bit worried. Spike did such an amazing job in Canterlot to find the stolen scrolls, So…” Twilight sighed.

“So what?” I asked.

“You know that Spike is the best dragon when it comes to organisation.” Twilight said.

“I thought you were the best pony.” I said.

“Yeah, but Spike never lost the wire. He could find everything back. And Celestia knows that.”

“go on…” I felt that something bad was going to happen.

“Celestia wants him to stay around in the Canterlot library for a while. See, there is a new librarian out there, so he needs to be trained a bit, before he can actually start. And the last librarian got to old for that job. And Spike… well,” Twilight sighed. “back when we lived in Canterlot, he helped there. Not for long, but still. So who can be a better teacher that him.”

“So Spike goes to Canterlot for a while?” I thought.

“For how long?” I asked.

“Depends on the capability of the new librarian.. It could take a week, in worst case, two or three weeks.” Twilight said.

“No.” I sight. “Where is he now?”

“Still in his bed. He leaves this evening.” Twilight answered.

“This ruins everything” I thought. I saw how the tears were growing in Twilight’s eyes, so I didn't doubt and embraced my friend who needed a hug.

“Calm down Twilight.” I whispered. “Spike is a good teacher. He can educate everypony to a good librarian in no time. And a week isn't
for long.”

“You don’t get it.” Twilight sobbed a bit. “As long as he lives, he was always close to me. He was always around. I kind of raised him.”

“heck, that’s true.” I thought.

“I’m just worried, James.” Twilight put her head on my shoulder. Which felt incredibly good actually.

“Calm down you.” I said. “Spike is still here for today. So let’s make this a wonderful day. And it’s not like Spike is gonna leave forever.”
Twilight looked up, with wet eyes and a little smile. “You’re right James. Let’s make a wonderful day for him, before he has to leave for the next week.”

“I know something.” I said. “We can throw a party.” Twilight shook her head.

“no? why no. Spike loves parties.”

“well, we cant organize a party AND have it on the same day. I mean, we have nothing. By the time we have everything, Spike has to prepare himself to leave.” Twilight sighed.

“Wrong” I smiled “WE can’t throw a party within this short time…” I smiled a bit brighter. “but Pinkie can.”

Twilight’s face cheered up. “You’re right. I’ll go to Pinkie Pie, and we set up the whole party. You stay here, and distract Spike for a while. I’ll come to you when the party is ready.”

“Yes ma’am.” I joked and saluted.

Twilight ran away as fast as she could, while I sat back in my chair and continued my breakfast. As long as Spike was asleep, my part would be easy. But I cheered to quick. Because short after Twilight left, Spike came down. He stepped in the doorway and rubbed in his eyes. “Good morning” he yawned.

“Good morning, my thumbed friend.” I smiled.

Spike smirked a bit. “Yeah… thumbs.”

He jumped on a chair and looked for some food on the table. “Is there anything left for breakfast?”

“I have no idea. Try the drawer or closet. You might have more luck over there.” I smiled.

Spike rolled with his eyes and started his search for food. He found himself some apple cake and returned to the table. “Where is Twilight?” he asked.

“euh…” I started to think for a good excuse. “I have no idea. I thought she went to Pinkie to help with the baby cakes.”

“I didn't know she had to do that.” Spike answered.

“I could be mistaking.” I said.

Spike sighed and shove his plate away.

“What’s wrong?” I asked. “You feel sad because you have to leave for a little while?”

“I assume Twilight told you.” Spike said. And he sighed again. “I …”

“You’re afraid of leaving your friends?” I tried.

“What? No.” Spike said. “I don’t mind it that much. Well, I hate it to leave my friends for so long, but it would also be a bit of a challenge. I've never thought I would become a sort of teacher one day. In fact, I’m more excited.” While he told this, he made wild movements with his arms.

“I see. But why the long face?” I asked.

“I just hoped that I could spend the whole day with my friend, and if Twilight has to work the whole day, with Pinkie…” Spike trailed of.
“well, you have me.” I felt a bit insulted.

“Sure, but what I try to say is that I can’t chare a moment with all my friends today.” Spike said.

“okay, I get it.” I smiled. “But Twilight should be ready by dinner, then you can share a moment with her. Trust me. She won’t let you down.”

In the window behind Spike, I saw a lavender unicorn, waving to come outside. She smiled and winked, so I assumed the party was all set. “that’s fast.” I thought.

“Spike… what if we… go and check out everypony? Then you can have a little moment with everypony, before you have to leave.” I suggested.

“Guess you’re right.” Spike said, and he jumped of his chair. “we’d better go. I still have a lot of packing stuff to do”

So went outside and walked to the one who lived the closest to us. After a five minutes walk, we arrived in Sugar Cube Corner.

“Here we are.” I said.

“yep.” Spike answered. He jumped happily on the stairs. “Come on.” He said.
He waited for me, before he opened the door.

“Surprise!” everypony jelled. The whole room was decorated with balloons and banners. There was cake and punch, and even a gigantic pie. and all of our friends were inside.

“Twilight? Pinkie? Rainbow, Fluttershy, Rarity and Applejack? How did you… I thought…” Spike said confused.

“We can’t leave you without giving you a ‘goodbye for a week’ party.” Pinkie Pie exclaimed.

“How can you all know that I have to go to Canterlot? We got that letter yesterday evening.” Spike asked. “and how did you managed to put up a party in no time?” then he notice the party canon under the table. “never mind”
