Pinkie Pie sighed, staring gloomily at the plate of treats before her. The cupcakes looked delicious, iced with soft, creamy pink and coated in crunchy sprinkles. But Pinkie didn’t feel like eating them.
The bakery was dark, the blinds closed to stop light from distracting her while they cooked. Or while she cooked. There was supposed to be another pony, laughing by her side as they whipped up the batch. She’d waited, of course. Pinkie could be a very patient mare when she felt like it. Yet he didn’t show up, even after two hours from when she was supposed to arrive, and Pinkie was left alone to make the cupcakes.
The door suddenly swung upon, the bells jingling wildly as an alert to her. Pinkie Pie’s head shot off the table, greeted by the sight of a very tired Cheese Sandwich, panting heavily.
“Pinkie!” he gasped out when he saw her, taking her by surprise by racing across the room to take her in his arms.
A soft flush, barely noticeably through her pink coat, bloomed on her cheeks at the warm contact of his body. “Cheesy?” she squeaked out in shock.
“Sorry I’m late,” he let her go, leaving a cold emptiness where he had been, making Pinkie long for that contact again. “Those Canterlot folk really needed to loosen up. It took me a while to get them into the spirit.”
Pinkie Pie wasn’t listening to his excuses. She took a small step forwards, wrapping her arms around his neck with a sigh.
“Um, Pinkie?”
“I made cupcakes,” she said in hushed tone, drawing back to take in the red growing on his face. “Just for us. Would you like some?”
Cheese Sandwich nodded stiffly. “O-of course.”
Pinkie giggled, a happy warmth settling in her stomach. “I made them myself because you weren’t here, but we could make more later if you like.”
Cheese gave her a brilliant, genuine smile, which she couldn’t help but return. “I’d love to.”
Pinkie Pie walked into her room, at times like this, she desperately needed two things: music and sugar. She quickly snatched some fresh cupcakes, much to the despair of Mrs. Cake, and ran upstairs. She took her record machine and put her favorite disk on. A lively polka tune filled the room.
Pinkie sighed, "Cheese would love this."
She said as she ate her cupcakes in silence. Randomly, Cheese appeared, crashing through the roof. Pinkie was standing in such a way that they were right next to each other.
Cheese leaned in. "Hi Pinkie." He said blushing.
"Come on Cheese! Let's dance!" She led him in an awkward waltz that quickly turned into the chicken dance.
"Ya know what Pinkie?" Cheese said after the record ended.
"What?"
"You're super-duper-extreme awesomazing!"
Pinkie blushed and kissed his cheek. He turned red. She giggled and kissed him on the lips. They both laughed and continued the passionate partying.
The pink earth pony and Cheese began doing the rubber chicken dance. It wasn't long however before the cupcakes disappeared and they had grumbling stomachs.
"Thinking what I'm thinking?" Pinkie asked grinning.
"Salsa and fondue?" Cheese asked.
"Nope! Super Duper Awesome Sauce Samwitch Making Competition!" Pinkie exclaimed with glee. Cheese grinned back.
Running down stairs they quickly collected the things they needed a tablecloth and a picnic basket. Rushing out the door without a word the two set off for a grass covered hill.
“Picnic parties,” said Cheese Sandwich, sprawling on his back on a blue-checked blanket, “are harder than they look.”
“I know, I know!” spluttered Pinkie Pie, with her mouth full of cake. She swallowed, and then went on, “I mean my friend Fluttershy, right before Dash’s party, was all ‘I love a nice picnic party,’ just because I said that parties were no picnic ---“
“Yeah! I was there, remember? Even picnic parties are no picnic! There’s no dance floor---“
“And you have to get all the food there—“
“And there’s the bugs—“
“And the bears! I know!” Pinkie Pie exclaimed, finishing their mutual sentence. “Of course, it’s a lot easier,” she admitted, rolling a little closer to him on the blanket, “if you don’t invite anypony else.”
“Uh-huh,” murmured Cheese, pulling his straw hat over his eyes. As far as he was concerned, even the hardest partying polka party ponies deserved the occasional picnic party that was strictly private, even the pink party ponies. Especially the pink party ponies, and most especially this pink party pony, whom he didn’t get to see as much as he wanted to. The sun was warm, he was full of cake, and he could feel how close she was. That high sweet voice, like a handful of holiday bells, was jingling on and on and on, and it was so soothing. He could listen to it forever, although of course he couldn’t.
What were the odds that he’d meet her again after all this time, and she would turn out to be so sensible and clever, and even better at parties than he was, not to mention very pink and squeezable? He was feeling pretty satisfied with himself, because there could only ever be one Pinkie Pie, and he had her – at least, right now. And he was pretty sure – at least, he was very nearly pretty sure --- anyway, she was the only Pinkie and she was here and that was all that mattered.
“---and then a herd of me ran right through Fluttershy’s picnic and it was all ruined, but she’s a good friend and she always forgives me when I do silly things like that, and anyway, I wasn’t there and couldn’t stop myselves.”
Wait a second. He lifted his hat off his eyes so he could look at her. “Myselves?”
“Oh, right, I didn’t tell you about the time I wanted to spend time with all my friends, and there wasn’t enough of me to go around, so I went to a mirror pool and got a whole lot more of me and me went abso-toot-lutely loco-cakes around Ponyville, including Fluttershy’s nice picnic, but she was great about it and now I don’t need to make a lot more of myself again because somehow I don’t feel as lonely anymore.”
“And how many of you were there?” he asked carefully.
Pinkie was sitting in her bed, swinging Boneless back and forth in her mouth. She stopped when she heard a soft *poof*. She opened her eyes and looked around. She noticed a small, pink and dark yellowish, fez on the ground. She picked it up and was about to place it on her head...
When a note fell out.
She picked it up and read it aloud.
Dear Pinkie, if you're reading this, it means you were swinging Boneless back and forth in your mouth, heard a soft poof, looked around, saw this pink and dark yellowish fez, picked it up, was about to put it on, and this note fell out.
Pinkie giggled and kept reading.
Now back to the point. I'm really sorry I had to leave, but I'll be back next year! And I'm gonna throw a massive Cheese-Pie party! But anyway, I love you Pinkie Pie. Love, Cheesis James Sandwich.
Three months have passed and when the time went by, Pinkie has started to act more and more weird. She became very clumsy and forgetful. Of course she still was her old self, smiling, singing everyday and helping everypony whenever they needed her but somehow it wasn't the same. And it happened that the rest of the Mane 6 knew the reason.
Ever since Cheese Sandwich left the Ponyville leaving the letter that he will return after a year, Pinkie couldn't find herself a place. Everyday she crossed out the date off the calendar and then wandered around the Ponyville without any specific purpose.
At the beggining her friends thought it was rather harmless. Actually Pinkie hasn't too much spare time apart from her daily chores so she hasn't too much occasions to do something stupid but as days went by it started to get worse.
One day when she was helping Mrs Cupcake in baking, she accidentally burned her hoof forgetting to put on a pot-holder before taking out a very hot baking tray from the oven.
"Well, it happens," mares thought, "there's no need to rise the alarm."
Another day Pinkie was helping Twilight in the library. They were sorting books. The truth was that Twilight didn't really need any help but she thought that it'll distract Pinkie a little. And surprisingly all went well until the pink mare climbed up the ladder. She saw then a book titled "100 ways to prepare a cheese snack" and got lost in her thought that suddenly one of her hooves slipped away from the rung. Pinkie crashed on the floor making a huge noise and a massive mess but fortunately didn't hurt herself, except from earning some bruises.
"It was the ladder!" Said Twilight while talking with the others. "It was unstable and that's why she fell" and they also accepted this as a coincidence.
Then a few days later she was spending her time with Fluttershy taking a walk in the forest. The mares were talking about some random stuff and enjoying each others company. Then Fluttershy suddenly said something that reminded Pinkie about Cheese. And when the nature-loving mare stopped to say hi to some cute forest creatures, after she turned back, she found out her friend wasn't with her anymore. Surprised, Fluttershy came back to town searching for Pinkie and when she couldn't actually find her, she called the rest of the Mane Six for help. Together they searched for hours and finally found their friend lost in the forest.
"I was so absent minded that I went ahead without noticing that Fluttershy isn't with me anymore. After I realised that I'm all alone, I wasn't sure where am I and couldn't find my way back," said the pink mare faking an innocent smile. Then she apologized to her friends and went straight to Sugarcube Corner, stating that she is really tired and need some sleep.
"Enough of this!" Rainbow Dash shrieked suddenly. "We should do something quickly or she is going to accidentally break her hooves!"
"Or worse..." Rarity added. "I wasn't sure I was going to say that but we must bring Cheese Sandwich back to Ponyville, before something bad will happen to our friend!"
"You're absolutely right! And I'm going to find him and bring his skinny ass here as soon as possible, no matter what!" And with that Rainbow flew as quick as she could to look for the only pony who could help them with Pinkie.
Pinkie Pie was pacing around Sugarcube Corner rather impatiently looking at the clock on the wall every few seconds. “Oh Cheesie, where are you? You should have been here 2 hours ago.”
Pinkie had send Cheese Sandwich a letter expressing her feelings for him and asked him to meet her in the cake shop at 12:00pm it was already 2:04pm and he still wasn’t there.
“Something must have happened! … But, I’m sure my Pinkie Sense would have told me…”
The little pink pony starts to cry “What if… what if he doesn’t return my feelings!? What if he’s avoiding me because he thinks I’m obsessive and annoying!? Oh no, why did I have to be so stupid. Oh Pinkie you stupid pony” She sobbed.
After about twenty minutes of her crying in one of the booths of Sugarcube Corner Pinkie finally found the strength to go up to her room to be totally alone with her thoughts. When she was about half way up the stairs the doors swung open to reveal a very distressed looking Cheese Sandwich. Pinkie looked up to see her colt standing there out of breath and clinging to the door frame for support. They locked eyes and Pinkie ran over to him tears streaming down her face and locked her hooves around his neck and blubbered out his name.
“Ch..Cheeeese! I… I… I th-”
“Shhh it’s okay Pinkie, I’m here now. It’s okay. I’m so so so sorry I’m late. Everytime I tried leaving to come here something would cut me off, it took me a while to find an easier route.” Cheese interrupted.
“Oh Che- Cheesie! It’s fine, you’re here now a.. and that’s all that matters!” Pinkie sobbed happily.
“By the way, your letter? I had no idea you felt that way. For months I’ve been trying to figure out a way to tell you how I felt and whether or not you felt the same. Well, now I know. So... Miss Pinkie... I love you with all of my heart. You’re the most super-duper-rific pony I’ve ever met and I ever will meet.” confesses Cheese.
Bewildered by what he just said, Pinkie just stares at Cheese with her mouth hung wide open. Cheese uses this opportunity to kiss her for the first time. Pinkie relaxes in his embrace and kisses him back.
Mrs. Cake walks into the cake shop to put out some fresh stock and sees the couple happily smooching in the doorway. She smiles and giggles and quietly walks off into the backroom.
“Oh, come on!” Pinkie Pie looked down at the burnt food disappointedly. “Can I not make anything more than sweets?” She had been trying to make a meal for her and Cheese Sandwich, whom she had invited over for dinner.
“Are you sure you don’t want any help?” Mrs. Cake walked in.
“Nope! I can do this by myself!”
“Alright then…”
As Mrs. Cake walked away, Pinkie turned back to the stove, seeing that the hay patty that she was trying to cook was yet again burnt to a crisp.
“AAUGHHH!”
~~~~~
“Pinkie? I’m here.” Cheese walked into Sugarcube Corner, looking around for the pink pony that invited him there.
There was a loud crash that came from the kitchen, so Cheese went over to investigate.
“Pinkie?”
“Cheese!” Pinkie was sitting on the ground with a smashed plate of some kind of black thing next to her. “I’m so sorry, I tried to make something, but I just can’t seem to make anything that’s not a cupcake or something!”
Cheese trotted over and sat down next to her, putting his forehoof around her shoulders and looking her in the eyes.
It was a relatively normal day at the Golden Oaks library. The Spring weather was crisp and clean, while the sun shined brilliantly. Right at the crack of dawn, Twilight Sparkle, the owner of the library, had just opened up for the day... and she was surprised to see who exactly was waiting outside the door.
"Pinkie Pie?" the alicorn said, with a slight yawn. "What are you and Cheese Sandwich doing here?"
Releasing a loud shushing noise, Pinkie bounced right past her friend and into the library, with her fellow party enthusiast right behind her. However, for the first time in forever, it seemed that the two wild ponies were almost calm. Emphasis on almost. Instead of squealing on and on about parties or bouncing off of the walls together, like usual, Pinkie and Cheese seemed sort of serious, in their comical kind of way.
With light hesitation, Twilight looked back and cocked her head to the side in confusion. "Can I help you two?" she questioned.
Then suddenly, Pinkie had zipped back over to her friend, now muzzle-to-muzzle with Twilight.
"Around two twenty two pm, where were you yesterday?" the pink party pony piped up.
"Uh, excuse me?" the alicorn asked warily, raising an eyebrow.
"Just answer the question! It's a crisis!" Pinkie demanded.
...well, this day was going to be fun, wasn't it?
Twilight released a sigh, and rubbed her eyes tiredly. "I was at the Castle with Cadence and Shining Armor helping them pick out things for their new foal," she muttered. "Why do you care?" She then took note of her friend's getup. "And what in Equestria are you wearing?"
Pinkie was decked out in a black cocktail dress - something that Rarity was more likely to wear - and her curly, frizzy mane was more out of control than usual. Right by her side, Cheese Sandwich was wearing a matching suit with a red bowtie that was undone. The both of them looked disheveled and a bit out of appearance... but then again, this was Pinkie and Cheese. If one were to look up abnormality or random in the dictionary, their pictures would be next to it.
"Wait, Pinkie, do you have lipstick on?" Twilight observed.
"Not the point!" Pinkie interrupted, as she nodded to her comrade. "Tell her what we're for, Cheese."
Clearing his throat, Cheese Sandwich looked to the Princess sternly. "It's a state of emergency," he announced. "Something that is of utmost importance, and could ruin Equestria if the information got into the wrong hooves. For all we know, it could tear a fabric in the reality of the everyday life we live. Time and space as we know it could be destroyed. Innocent foals and puppies will have to suffer the consequences if-"
"You're overselling it," Pinkie whispered loudly.
"Oh," Cheese said, his expression dropping. He let out a nervous chuckle. "Uh... Boneless #1 and Boneless #2 went missing."
"And-?" Twilight asked.
"What do you mean, 'and'?!" Pinkie argued, with her eye twitching. "This is the mystery of all mysteries! The tragedies of all tragedies! This is horrible!"
"And you said I was overselling it," Cheese muttered, holding back a smirk at her silliness.
Twilight looked at the two party ponies before her, and stammered. It was too early for this sort of randomness from one of them, not both. Actually, anytime of day was too early to deal with these shenanigans, but it wasn't even before seven and she still didn't have any coffee in her system...
"Right," she said blantly. "Well, I can't say that I've seen either of them."
The two party ponies frowned and pouted.
"Why are you two dressed like characters from Con Mane anyway?" Twilight asked.
"Hey, don't knock the spies!" Cheese argued. "Bowties are cool."
"Ok then," the alicorn said simply, as she shook her head. She should have known better than to question the actions of these two. "Well, you're both welcome to look around here if you wish. Just... don't throw any parties. It's too early for that."
Now in 'spy' mode, the two party ponies began exploring all around the library, in search of their precious rubber chickens.
With a sigh, Twilight shook her head, and looked over to notice Spike in the doorway of the foyer, now awake and looking awfully confused at the scene before him.
"What's going on?" he muttered through a yawn.
"I have no idea," the alicorn replied. "So, do you want waffles or pancakes for breakfast?"
Being a party planner and living with a family of bakers, it had to be an essential to be able to bake cakes. And here she was, the masterpiece and her creation. The Cheesecake.
The pink pony smiled at herself. She didn't know why, but the itch to just whip up some Cheesecake at four in the morning had gotten to her and it felt good. The cake probably tasted the same as well, good. Maybe even better than good.
Maybe it was the fact that cheesecake had the word cheese in it. It had been a while since the other party planner had left Ponyville, and she had been dying to meet him once again. Who knows when he might come back though, it might be years before his next visit.
Knock! Knock!
Who might have been up at this hour?
Pinkie walked to the front door and opened it, smiling widely to greet them.
