“So, Spike, what’d you think?”
Spike took a deep breath, fully inhaling the strong scent of sweat and perfume from the mare next to him.
“That… was amazing.”
“Hehe, glad you thought so,” Flitter said, rolling over in bed to rest her head against her dragon. “I’m so happy we finally got to do that, Spike.”
“Yeah, me too,” Spike said, gently stroking Flitter’s mane. “And as long as Twilight doesn’t find out, we can relive that all we want.
Flitter chuckled and nuzzled Spike’s cheek. “That’s exactly what I wanted to hear. And when does Twilight get home, again?”
“Not for two days,” Spike said.
“In that case,” Flitter said, maneuvering herself to where her face was directly in line with Spike’s. “I may just stay here until she gets back. Sound good?”
“Sounds great.” Spike wrapped his arms around Flitter and held her as close as he could.
“So, in that case,” Flitter whispered in his ear, “let’s go for round two.”
Spike shot up in his bed and darted his eyes around his room. His heart was jumping out of his chest and his head was swimming.
“Okay, good, I’m alone,” he said after assessing his surroundings. “That dream was way too realistic.”
He flopped back on his bed and let out a deep breath. His mind began to float around, thinking of all the recent happenings. The news from Flitter, the horrifying reality of having to tell Twilight, his relationship with Vinyl…
“Oh, no! Vinyl!” Spike slapped his claw to his face and buried his head in his pillow. “What is she going to think about all this?”
It was one thing that he ditched their show at the last second without explanation. But it was going to be a whole new demon to try and explain the situation to her. What would she say? Would she still want to be with him? How would this affect his job with her. There were so many questions and a complete and total lack of answers.
Spike moaned into his pillow. “Ergh, why can’t life just be simple? I swear, just last week it was almost there. But no. So, buck you too, universe! Buck you, buck your family, buck your friends and buck your cruel, sick sense of humour!”
If life didn’t have require him to get up and face the day, he would’ve been perfectly content to just lie in bed, burrowed under his covers and pillows for the rest of his life. At least he wouldn’t fall prey to the cold, hard ways of fate that way.
“C’mon, Spike, get up. You can do this.”
Spike slowly pushed the covers off of him like it was a one-hundred pound dumbbell weighing him down. But eventually he found success and rolled out of bed and onto the floor.
“Alright, step one, complete. Step two: tell Twilight.” Spike gulped down a breath of air and instantly felt a pit form in his stomach. Given her general tendency to overreact about most things, this was not going to end well. Actually, it might even end with their home being turned into a crater.
Spike walked over to his door but hesitated before opening it. He was going to have to strategize about this.
“Maybe there is a way I can bring it up without actually bringing it up. Like, if I can get her eased into the idea, then maybe it’ll be easier to bring it up without it ending in my life ending. Alright, here goes.”
Spike inched his door open and slowly made his way down the stairs. He could hear hoofsteps and pages turning from the room at the bottom, so she was definitely up and around already.
He hopped off the final step and walked into the living area, where Twilight was at her desk, eating a blueberry muffin and meticulously page flipping through some book or another.
“Hey, Twilight,” Spike said, approaching her.
“Oh, good morning, Spike,” Twilight replied with a smile. “Did you sleep well?”
Heh, I wish.
“Yeah, I slept just fine. How about you?”
“I slept great! I was reading a great story about about myths and monsters and I knocked out right in the middle of it. I had a pretty crazy dream about Krakens and Sirens though.”
“Oh, well that’s pretty awesome, all right,” Spike said. “So, um, are you like, busy or anything?”
“No, I’m taking a rest day today. Just finishing up my book. Why?”
“Oh, no reason,” Spike said. “I was just gonna ask you a quick question.”
“Okay, what is it? I’ll answer if I can.”
Oh boy, here it goes.
“So, Twilight, I was reading this story where this dragon and this pony got together right?”
“Right.”
“And I was just thinking, what if they, you know, did a little something something… and had a baby? Wouldn’t that be kind of cool?”
“A dragon/pony baby?” Twilight said, rubbing her chin. “It’s a bit unorthodox, but I could only imagine how could their offspring would be. Or hideous. I haven’t really seen one, myself.”
“Yeah, i imagine it’d be pretty cute,” Spike said. “So, it wouldn’t like, gross you out or anything?”
“Of course not, Spike. Why do you ask?”
“Oh, no reason. I was just thinking and…”
“Wait a second, Spike,” Twilight cut in.
“Uh, y-yes, Twi?”
“I think I know what’s going on here.”
“You do?”
“Yes, I do,” she said. “And Spike, it’s completely natural for you to think about the future and having a baby with a pony someday.”
“Umm, about that…” Spike couldn’t finish his thought before being wrapped in a hug from Twilight.
“Don’t worry Spike. It’s completely natural, and I’ll be there for you every step of the way. Besides, you’ll have plenty of time to worry about that when you’re ready to start a family. For now, I’d recommend just focusing on a stable relationship.”
“Yeah, um Twi?”
“What is it Spike?”
“I’m not sure there’s as much time to worry about it as we might hope.”
“What do you-?”
*knock knock*
“Hold that thought, Spike. I’m going to go see who’s at the door.”
Twilight trotted toward the door leaving Spike alone with his palpitating heart and racing mind. He heard the door click open and the worst possible phrase that he could’ve heard at that moment rang through the air.
“Oh, hey Flitter! I bet you’re here to see, Spike.”
Universe, buck you with a ten foot pole.
Twilight cheerfully hopped back in the room, followed by Flitter.
“Oh, Spike, you have a visitor,” She walked closer and whispered in his ear. “Try and be nice, okay?”
Flitter followed behind and slowly waved at him. “Hey, Spike. I was just wondering if we had time to talk about a few things about, well, you know.”
“Yeah, I guess so, but I was talking to Twilight… about the situation,” Spike replied, motioning to the smiling purple unicorn by him.
“Oh, don’t mind me, Spike. If you all need to talk, I can just-”
“Does she know?” Flitter asked.
“Know what?” Twilight interjected.
“Well, she was about to. That’s what I was explaining.”
“What am I about to know?”
“You mean you haven’t told her yet?”
“What haven’t you told me?”
“I haven’t exactly had time since yesterday!”
“Both of you, stop!”
Spike and Flitter turned their heads in synchronous to look at Twilight who was standing right between them.
“Will someone please explain to me what’s going on here!”
*knock knock*
“Of, for the love of sweet Celestia,” Spike said.
“I’ll go get the door, but I expect a full explanation when I get back, please?”
Spike and Flitter both nodded and looked at each other as Twilight left them to go answer the door.
Unfortunately, fate was once again finding ways to make Spike’s once simple life even more complicated.
“Oh, Vinyl! I take it you’re also here to see Spike? Come join the party.”
Twilight once again walked back in, quickly followed by Vinyl, who looked like she hadn’t gotten an ounce of sleep with her discombobulated mane and baggy eyes.
“Spike, aren’t you popular this morning,” Twilight said, pointing toward Vinyl.
“Hey, Spike. We need to talk. I was thinking and… Wait, what’s going on here?” Vinyl asked, eyes darting back and forth between a glaring Flitter and Spike, who was staring at the ground, begging it to open up and swallow him.
“I’d like to know the same thing!” Twilight shouted.
“Look, everypony, just calm down and I’ll explain the situation!”
“Oh, so you’re girlfriend is here now?” Flitter asked. “Did you tell her at least, or are you so ashamed of our history that you’re just hiding it from everypony?”
“What don’t I know?” Vinyl asked, looking directly at Spike.
“The question of the day!” Twilight chimed in.
“Spike, you need to tell them!”
“What does he need to tell me?”
“What’s going on here?”
“Spike, you need to explain what’s going on.”
Spike’s ears were filled with angry voices and his eyes saw nothing but angry mares.
“Ahhh! Everypony! I’m going to be a dad! That’s it!”
The loud voices that filled the room a mere second ago came to a dead halt after Spike’s outburst. Twilight and Vinyl were stunned speechless.
“And I’m the mother.” Flitter’s voice broke the silence as she walked over to Spike and stood next to him. “We’re going to have a baby.”
Spike looked at the stunned faces of the other two mares in the room and one thought crossed his mind.
Why didn’t I just stay in bed today?
need to find out what happens! pls be quick
Taking two popular fan favorites and getting them together?... Famous you evil genius.
NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
HOW DARE YOU!
PLEASE UPDATE SOON!
Well... that could have gone better.
All hands/hooves to the life rafts Twilight's gonna blow.
Vinyl really needs to hoof that flitter in the face lol
6557517 6557587 I'm with you 110%
6557557 buck the life rafts. Find a submarine 'cause under da sea or in space are the only safe places when that bomb goes off.
Let fire rain down upon the head of Flitter for she is no good for Spike, in this story! Burn the she-demon!
6557557
*Puts on an Royal Equestrian Navy uniforn* Foals and Mares first!
Oh god, that was painful to read. Like, watching Spike sing the cloudsdale anthem awkward
Well, can't wait to see what happens next.
Thoughts: What if Flitter is lying about who the father is? What if it isn't really Spike? I mean, yeah, sure. They bucked. But what if she was with somepony else?
6557557 I'll stick with my bunkermobile, hopefully I can get out of range quickly enough...
c2.staticflickr.com/4/3187/3081422321_c3b6dcd39c.jpg
Full explanation time!!!!
6557735
Where can I buy one?
Spike doesn't seem happy about it though, that's important! I just hope Vinyl can be levelheaded and give Spike a chance.
Obviously Twilight's going to demand a paternity test, for Spike's sake. That should prove things one way or the other. IMO, the author can't be ambiguous about Flitter's relationship with Spike and why it ended, then suddenly bring her back into the picture just to have this baby actually be his. There's something we're not being told here.
6557816 If only you knew...
6557831 Thanks for checking it out, man!
Well....That chapter happened.
Thanks for all that understanding, Flitter. You know, where this is kind of a big thing. Is going to wreck my relationship, and probably put a wedge between my surrogate mother/sister and me given our differences of opinions on the matter &/or you.
So, you know, I totally ran and told them. The second I heard about it. Even when the fillyfriend was out of town at the time.
Yeah, thanks for that.
(PS: I still think Flitter is totally being manipulative, and the baby isn't real. Even if it is, I feel she intentionally got pregnant somehow. She's being too forceful/acting like they were still an item.)
Well. Look at it this way, Spike. You're getting it over with all at once. That's gotta count for something.
Personally, I'm more interested in Twilight's reaction to this news than Vinyl's. Because, y'know, Twilight is the queen of overreacting. Only she would go as far as trying to stop time so to prevent herself from going back in time just to try and tell herself not to worry about going back in time.
i1.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/006/216/7nTnr.png
Even if Vinyl takes this really, really badly, it's not going to compare to Twilight's reaction.
Unless Twilight is somehow the level-headed one in all of this. Or she faints. Actually, I kinda want to see that now, her fainting from the shock.
Ok... Here I was thinking "Changelings" or "Evil Twin Syndrome" but no. You actually threw me for a loop with the entire Flitter ark. Weird thing is, I usually hate it whenever this stuff happens, but... this time I actually don't! It all felt natural and smooth. The pacing was phenomenal, the jokes were precise and light, not distracting from the romance yet keeping it light-hearted, and the personalities were spot on! As I was reading I could keep track of who was talking without reading the descriptive actions! I started reading this mainly because of Vinyl and plausible wubs. But this? SOOOOO worth every second of reading time.

It's quite ironic that he's cursing all the 'bucking' at the universe for all the karma/angst it's giving Spike, given that this resulted from the rather long satisfying rounds of bucking he did with Flitter What's the advice---hmm...oh yeah, don't stick your dick in crazy, no matter how tight and comfortable it was!! And yes, I'm using 'bucking' to mean 'fucking' as in sex...
Seriously, all it took to stop this trainwreck from happening would just be to either have some flame- and lava-resistant condoms, or just stick to anal. But then again a good piece of flank will sway most dragonhoods to trouble...
6557816
I have to say that I think Flitter's being truthful when she says Spike's the daddy. There are too many of you that are saying that Flitter's trying to play a trap card on Spike so that she would get him in the end from Vinyl. That's too obvious---knowing Famous (well his stories, anyways), there is gonna be a hell of a twist coming.... I just have a feeling.
And before anyone comes and skimming the comments to see if I'm being hypocritical, I will let you all know that I think that Spike truly knocked her up, but I also understood the possible issue of Flitter lying....so take it as you will...
NO! I need to know what happens next and GAH! This cliffhanger!
6558189 Dat follow though...
6558196 you make good stories
6558213 I appreciate you checking my story, man. This story has been my baby and is reaching its conclusion. You're going to love the ending, trust me.
6558221 That's great to hear. It's amazing the pride you feel in these sorts of projects
funsubstance.com/uploads/original/196/196377.jpg
Geez, I always heard of getting to the point quickly, but I never knew the universe would punish you that much for not doing it.
Hey Famous, If you can answer this question without spoiling it, is Flitter actually being an honest pony in this? I mean, I see a lot of comments about people theorizing that she's just making this up or something along those lines for whatever reason, but I was wondering if she is actually just a perfectly reasonable pony who bucked her boyfriend once without a condom, and didn't foresee the consequences because he was a dragon?
6558916
Technically, Spike and her bucked more than once....if we are talking orgasms, that is. That flashback definitely had Flitter talking in the afterglow and persuading Spike for round 2---after all he and Flitter had the treebary for the entire weekend....just sayin'..
"didn't have required" should be changed to "didn't require"
Good chapter though! Man I am on the edge of my seat hoping to get some sort of resolution to this crazy mess son T_T
6558916 She's being honest, but there is indeed a twist to this whole situation.
And then everyone was perfectly calm and Spike lived a perfectly normal life from then on.
6559813 Lol, that's the cheap, redbox alternate ending.
Well, that was quick and painful!
And now comes the burning aftermath!
Good luck, Spike!
P.S. You called, Twilight a unicorn again. Sorry, but those days are long gone.
6559819
Your username is fittingly apt for this.
hey guys i got and exclusive look at the next chapter
apparently it written from the point of view of a passing pegisi that spike also knocked up.
6558168 I agree. Unless Flitter has some weird short-term plan, eventually a baby is going to come out, and either it's going to be a kirin, or a regular pony. The truth will come out then, if not before.
6552420 What does that mean? And why does that have so many dislikes?
I'm gonna try to add a little levity to an otherwise overbearing and unsettling situation:
There is one thing that Spike's always gonna have on Twilight: Spike is DEFINITELY not a virgin, whereas we can all assume that Twilight probably still is...and wonder if Flitter was his first and vice versa, because I just get the knick that the night with Flitter (that supposedly ended with Flitter apparently knocked up) wasn't Spike's first time with the horizontal pony tango.....Then again, maybe the twist is that Flitter is the one that wasn't a virgin with Spike and she took him to bed, literally because she's the one with some carnal experience (I mean, most of us pretty much say that when it comes with the original twins, Cloudchaser is the more provacative of the two and Flitter is the more innocent one).
Still just more food for thought.
6560397
That was one of the most perfect comments I have ever seen
My reaction when I realized what was going on however:
media.giphy.com/media/USNlL9p2fxY6Q/giphy.gif
not sure if I wanna laugh at spikes misfortune or prepare for the inevitable feels that will probably come soon
Now I'm sure Flitter propably isn't pregnant.
Wait, how old was Twilight when she became a parent? Seven? Maybe eight? I think she'll understand, Spike. She'll be disappointed, but she won't disown you or anything. More likely she'll support you, like her parents did for her. Vinyl on the other hand...
Modem has to do something with the current situation. Otherwise, he would not be mentioned in the last chapter.
And Flitter is too happy with the situation... The chances of her faking pregnancy so Spike and Vinyl would break up so Spike marries Flitter and Modem uses heartbroken Vinyl are too high... GAH! This is like unraveling the secrets of the FNAF universe!
Maybe Modem is
Purple Guythe father.6563130 Thanks for reading the story, man!
DOOD ITS BETTER BE A HUGE LIE OR IM GONNA SLAP A BITCH
