Chapter 4-Romance and Dreams

Mordecai walked into the grand hall and saw Twilight with Princess Celestia. "Twilight" he said running to her. "Mordecai" Twilight said. "I knew you could make it". Mordecai began to stare at her outfit. "Wow Twilight you look beautiful". he said complementing her dress. "It looks very magical". "Thank you" Twilight said thanking Mordecai the complement. "Rarity made this dress for me". "By the way have you met Princess Celestia?". "So you must be Mordecai" The Princess said. "Twilight here has told me all about you". "She did?" Mordecai asked. The princess nodded. "So do you want to hang out with us?" Twilight asked. "Sure" Mordecai said. Then he walked up to Twilight and stood next to her.

Meanwhile Rigby was looking for something to do. Then he saw the garden. So he decided to check it out. When he was walking in the garden he couldn't see anyone. "Hello" he said. But no answer. " Hello" he said again. Still no answer. "Shhhhhhh" a Pegasus pony said. "You will scare the animals away". "Sorry" Rigby said. "But who is talking?". "Rigby it's me Fluttershy" said the pony. "Come over here". Rigby hid behind a bush where Fluttershy was. "Wow Fluttershy you look so pretty" Rigby said complementing her dress. "It looks so cute". "Awww thank you" Fluttershy said thanking Rigby for the complement. "Now" she said "We have to be very quiet so we don't scare the animals. Want to join me?" "Ok" Rigby said. So he joined Fluttershy on her search for the animals.

"Having a good time Mordecai?" Twilight asked. "Yeah I'm doing great" Mordecai responded. "So princess I herd that you bring out the sun at dawn". "That's right" Celestia said. "I bring out the sun so everypony can see well. And without the sun ponies would have to learn seeing in the dark. "Who brings out the moon?" Mordecai asked. "Oh my sister Luna brings out the moon. "said the princess. "She was once evil but she is back to normal". "Wait she was evil?" Mordecai said. "Yes but only for a thousand years until Twilight and her friends used the elements of harmony to turn her back to good" Celestia said. "How did she get evil?" Mordecai asked. "You don't want to know" Twilight said. Mordecai was really having a good time with Twilight.

Back in the garden Rigby and Fluttershy were still looking for animals. First Fluttershy saw a squirrel. "Oh there is a squirrel" she said. "Now let's tiptoe out of the bush and head to the critter. But don't make a sound cuz you will scare it away. Plus I don't want to end up like last year and turn into a monster". Rigby wasn't paying attention because he was looking at Fluttershy's dress. "So pretty" he thought. "Rigby are you even listening?" Fluttershy asked. Rigby snapped out of confusion and said " What did you say Fluttershy?". Fluttershy explained everything once again and this time Rigby was listening. "Got it". Rigby said. And the two tiptoed out of the bush and headed for the squirrel. "Hi little squirrel" Fluttershy whispered. The squirrel began to come closer to Fluttershy. "That's it. Don't be afraid" Fluttershy whispered trying to be friendly. Then the squirrel cuddled Fluttershy. And it called the rest of it's friends. Birds and critters from around the garden gathered around Fluttershy and Rigby. "My dream has finally come true" Fluttershy said. Rigby was staring at her dress again and thinking of the two of them going out.

Mordecai was still hanging out with Twilight and the Princess. "My dream has finally come true and this is even better than last year" Twilight said. Mordecai was just staring at her dress like Rigby was staring at Fluttershy's outfit. "So Twilight I'm thinking maybe this is our first date" Mordecai said. "Yeah I guess it is" Twilight replied. Then she handed out her hoof and Mordecai held out his hand. And the two were holding hands. "I think Margaret will be so jealous" Mordecai said. "Who's Margaret?" Twilight asked. "She works at the coffee shop across the street from the park and I have a huge crush on her" Mordecai answered. "What does she look like?" Twilight asked. "She is a red robin" Mordecai said. "Ohhh that's interesting" Twilight said. "You know I never met anyone like you Mordecai" "Me neither" Mordecai said.

Rigby and Fluttershy were having a great time in the garden. "Eileen will be so jealous" Rigby said. "Who's Eileen?" Fluttershy asked. "She is a mole who works at the coffee shop across the street from the park and she has a huge crush on me" Rigby said. "Well you can't have 2 girlfriends" Fluttershy said. " That is true" Rigby added. "I never met anyone like you Rigby" Fluttershy said. "Me neither" Rigby said.

Mordecai and Rigby were tired so they decided to leave the gala. "Bye Twilight" Mordecai said. "Bye Mordecai" Twilight said. "Bye Fluttershy" Rigby said. "Bye Rigby" Fluttershy said. Mordecai and Rigby walked up to each other. "So how was your date with Twilight?" Rigby asked. "Pretty good" Mordecai said. "I think we are building a relationship". "Dude I think I have a crush" Rigby said. "Who?" Mordecai asked. "Her" Rigby said pointing to Fluttershy. "Fluttershy?" Mordecai said. Rigby nodded. " I don't believe this" Mordecai said. On the way home Rigby told Mordecai everything he did with Fluttershy.

Well that's my story. I hope you liked it.
