Princess Twilight Sparkle's coronation was a disaster. However, her ascension to the throne led to one of the most prosperous eras Equestria has ever seen. Thanks to that, she and her friends can live in peace and harmony in the land that they love, regardless of the distance between them.
But Twilight wasn't the only one who had to make big changes when she moved to Canterlot. Her assistant and confidant, Spike, is ever by her side. And unlike Twilight, he still has some unfinished business in Ponyville. Thus, a promise was made between himself and the Element of Generosity, Rarity. Now, five years later, it's time for Spike to fulfill that promise.
If only he was good enough to do so.

Awww. This was a really good one-shot. Definitely liked the sweetness. And, yeah, I have far fewer issues with Spike/Rarity when Spike is an adult in pony years. I can see where Spike could be doubting himself despite knowing about his own accomplishments (it's pretty common for somebody to think they're not good enough for somebody they have those kinds of feelings for). Definitely loved the work going into the characterizations, sweetness and general wrap-up.
I prefer Spike x Gabby but this was still a cute story. Could you possibly do a Spike x Gabby story in the future?
