First Dates: Pinkie Pie and Cheese Sandwich

Pinkie Pie was very excited today because she was going to plan her first date with Cheese Sandwich, the party pony that she felt was going to take her title of Ponyville's premier party pony, but ended up being the pony who helped her make Rainbow Dash's birthday the best party ever and the pony who stole her heart this past Hearts and Hooves day. Pinkie head was loaded with possible ideas for dates but wasn't sure what was a proper thing to do for a date.

"Oh Gummy, what is a good idea for a first date?" Pinkie asked her beloved pet alligator who just blinked in response.

Pinkie then gasped loudly and said "You're right Gummy, I should go ask Rarity!" she then hugged Gummy and ran out the door.



Once she was at Carousel Boutique she knocked quickly on the door.

"Coming" she heard Rarity's voice on the other side of the door, then the door opened and Rarity stood there with a puzzled look on her face "Pinkie, what on earth are you doing here, aren't you supposed to be planning your date with Cheese Sandwich?" Rarity asked.

"I am, but I have a question" Pinkie said to her friend.

"And that is?".

"What is a good first date?".

"Well, it can be anything you two want to do, it can be a day at the beach or a dinner at a fancy restaurant as long as the two of you are having a good time together".

"Thanks, Rarity," Pinkie said.

"Oh, I wish you knew how much I envy you Pinkie, I really want my first date to be a dinner at the most romantic of restaurants and a moonlit walk in the park but I don't think I'll ever find a stallion that will want me" Rarity told her friend sadly.

"Aww, don't say that Rarity, you're find your special somepony and he'll take you on the most romantic date ever!" Pinkie said cheerfully.

"You really think so?".

"Absolutely!" Pinkie said with a huge smile "Any stallion would be lucky to have you as his marefriend".

"Thank you Pinkie, you made me feel so much better." Rarity said smiling.

"That's what friends do, well I better get going, I'm supposed to meet Cheese Sandwich in the middle of town, maybe when we're talking we'll think of something, see you later Rarity" she said as she left the boutique.

"Good luck Pinkie." she said to her friend,"I really hope she takes my advice, that she doesn't try and do something she'd never do just because it sounds like a better date" Rarity said to herself.




Pinkie was hopping around Ponyville searching for Cheese Sandwich but was having no luck.

"He said he'd be here right around now, I hope everything's okay." she said to herself sounding worried, but then she saw a familiar mane moving up and down as if the pony who had it was hopping around like she does.

"Cheese?" Pinkie called out.

"Pinkie?" a very familiar voice rang out.

Upon hearing that voice, Pinkie giggled a little and ran towards the source of it as fast as her hooves could go, once she saw him she ran up to him and gave him one of her big Pinkie Pie hugs, "I missed you soooo much" she told him.

Cheese Sandwich hugged her back and said "I missed you too Pinkie".

After they stopped hugging Pinkie asked, "How was the party in Appleloosa?".

"It would have been better if you were there, but it was still really good".

"Who was it for?".

"A little buffalo named Little Strongheart".

"Little Strongheart? I met her when me and my friends went to Appleloosa to bring a tree to their orchard, did she have fun?".

"She said she had a lot of fun and I also met a pony named Braeburn who said he was Applejack's cousin"

"You met Braeburn?" Pinkie asked, "Isn't he a nice and happy pony?".

"He is and when I was talking with him, I told him about me and you and he said that he was happy that two of his cousin's friends had special somepony's
and said he wishes he had the courage to tell the beautiful unicorn he has a crush on that he likes her".

" 'Beautiful unicorn'?" Pinkie said, "I wonder if he means...".

"It could be her" Cheese added.

"Maybe we'll have to get them together one day".

"Yeah".

"Speaking of romantic get togethers, do you have any ideas for our first date?".

"I've had some, but I don't think there good ideas for dates".

"I've had the same problem, what are some of your ideas?".

"A picnic in the park or a walk on the beach were my best".

"I thought of dinner and a movie, but I didn't like that".

"We'll think of something, maybe we could think of something over lunch?" Cheese suggested.

"That sounds like a great idea!" Pinkie replied.

"What sounds good for lunch?".

"How about we get haybugers and fries?".

"That sounds really good".

"Let's go!" Pinkie said enthusiastically.

And the two party ponies headed off to get lunch.




Once they had finished lunch, they still hadn't decided on what to do for the date, which was making both ponies upset.

"Why can't we find something to do?" Pinkie asked, "you would think one of us would have thought of something by now".

"I don't know, Pinkie" Cheese answered "maybe we're thinking about it too hard and we should just pick something we both really like".

"Yeah, but what?".

"Let's think of things we both like".

"Okay, we both like parties, having fun and making everypony happy".

"I know, but how about we think of things we can do for a date?".

"Okie Doki Loki, let's see," Pinkie said "we both like movies, but we don't want to do that".

"Okay, and?".

"We both like going to the park or the beach".

"Yeah.but is that a good first date?".

"I don't know," Pinkie said to him, "Rarity said that anything can be a good date as long as we are doing something we both like".

"That sounds like great advice".

"Yeah, it is" Pinkie replied "But what is a good first date?".

"Well, Rarity did say anything we both like just like I had said before".

"I know".

The two ponies kept thinking about what to do when Applejack walked up to them.

"Howdy ya'll" Applejack said to them "What's up, I thought you were going to have your first date tonight?".

"We are," Pinkie told her "But we can't think of anything to do".

"Well, I have some tickets to a rodeo that I'm competing in later today if you're interested," Applejack told them.

"That sounds like fun," Cheese said excitedly "What do you think Pinkie?".

"That's perfect!" Pinkie said sounding extremely happy "Thank you sooo much AJ!".

"You're welcome guys" Applejack responded "I'm just glad I could help".

"When is it?" Cheese asked.

"About seven, so if you want to get some dinner before the rodeo you can," Applejack told them.

"Okie Doki Loki, see you later Applejack," Pinkie said to her friend.

"See you guys there!" Applejack said as she galloped off.

"So, what should we do for dinner?" Pinkie asked.

"How about pizza?" Cheese suggested "I hear there is a great pizza place here".

"Yeah, Me and my friends go there at least once a month".

"Okay then, let's go!".

The two pony's headed to the Ponyville Pizza Parlor, which is Pinkie Pies's favorite pizza place in all of Equestria, when they got there they decided to order out and eat in the park since it was such a beautiful day outside, once they were at the park they put the blanket on the ground and sat down.

"I can't wait to see Applejack in the rodeo," Cheese said, "I have never been to one before".

"Really?" Pinke asked sounding surprised " I would think that a pony that travels as much as you do and plans parties of all types would of at some point seen a rodeo".

"No actually, I've never had a chance to go to a rodeo" Cheese explained "I have planned parties for them, but every time it starts I have to leave for the next party".

"Wow," Pinkie said shocked "Well you're in for a real treat, Applejack is one of the best rodeo ponies in all of Equestria!".

After they finished their dinner, they headed to the Ponyville Rodeo Grounds to enjoy the rodeo.




Once the rodeo ended Cheese Sandwich was walking Pinkie Pie home and all he could talk about was the rodeo.

"Wow, that was so cool!" Cheese exclaimed "Applejack was great, I can't believe how many ribbons she won!".

"I know," Pinkie said to him, "I told you she's one of the best in Equestria".

"Now I see why, I don't think she's one of the best, I think she the best in all of Equestria!".

"You'll have to tell her that".

"Yeah." Cheese said as they got to the door of Sugarcube Corner they stopped and he looked her.

"What?" she said when she noticed him staring at her.

"You look lovely tonight." he told her.

She then giggled and blushed a little and said "aww, you're just saying that".

"No, I'm not Pinkie." he said, then he leaned over and kissed Pinkie's cheek.

Pinkie started blushing making her normally pink face red and all she could do is giggle.

"Good night, Pinkie Pie" Cheese said with a smile on his face.

"Good night, Cheese Sandwich" Pinkie said smiling back, they hugged and he headed off into the night to the hotel he was staying at.

Pinkie headed inside Sugarcube Corner and ran right up to her room and she started giggling and couldn't stop.

"Guess what Gummy" Pinkie told her pet "Cheese Sandwich gave me a kiss good night on the cheek!",she looked over and saw her journal on her nightstand and went over to get it "I just have to put this in it" she declared proudly "it's way too exciting not to!" she wrote the day's events in it and then climbed into bed
"Thanks for the advice, Rarity." she said out loud with a yawn "You're right as long as we're doing something we like, anything can be a good date".
