Grown up ponies
Chapter 5: Spike and Rarity: Bedtime story
Previous Chapter Next ChapterSo sorry I haven't update sooner, I'm currently working on a different Fanfiction called "Pinkie's coming for you".
"Mommy! Daddy!" I heard one of my kids, Kirin, call for me. Her name is Kirin after he species, which is half dragon and half pony. Spike and I both turned to see her running down the hall, being chased by her older sister, Gem. Kirin is 4 and Gem is 7.
"Now Gem, be nice to your sister," Spike called to them as they ran upstairs and then back downstairs. Kirin ran to Spike for protection from Gem.
"Daddy save me!" she called jumped into Spike's arms. I looked at the clock and turned to my family.
"Its 8 o'clock, time for bed," I told them. Gem and Kirin both moaned. I grabbed Kirin and Spike grabbed Gem. Even after 20 years, Spike is just a little taller than me; maybe a foot of so. We carried them upstairs and into their beds. We laid them down and started to leave.
"Tell us a bedtime story," Kirin said.
"Like what?" I Spike asked.
"How did you guys meet?" Gem blurted out. Spike and I both blushed a little. "Please?" Gem asked. I sighed and started.
~~~Flashback~~~
"Twilight dear did you hear the great new?" I asked Twilight as I entered her library. She looked up from her books, confused. "I have an amazing new boyfriend. His name is Thunder Stallion and he's divine!" I told her. I had no idea Spike had overheard this from the corner. "I must go darling. I have a dinner date with him in 5 minutes," I told her and trotted off.
As soon as I left I heard an argument between Twilight and Spike about me. I stuck around to hear it. "Spike, give it a rest. Rarity wouldn't love you even if she didn't have Thunder Stallion," Twilight yelled.
"How do you know?" Spike yelled back. I could hear in his voice that he had been crying.
"If she hasn't noticed you in the other years she was single; it will be no different now!" Twilight screamed.
"Maybe she will," Spike said lowering his voice.
"I highly doubt it. There have been no mixed race marriages in the history of Ponyville," Twilight told him. I could hear the pages of a book flipping. I figured it was over, so I started walking away, until I hear what Spike had said next.
"I'm sorry, Twilight. It's just I love Rarity, and I can't and won't love any other dragon, pony, or creature as much as I love her," Spike said, softly. Then, I heard soft crying, muffled by a pillow. I sighed and started walking away. I walked aimlessly for a minute, until I decided where I wanted to go.
I walked to edge of Ponyville. It was a really tall cliff; I always come here when I need to think. I sat on the edge with my hooves dangling off and just thought. I thought and thought, until I looked a little to my left and saw little Spike. He had his arms spread wide and looked like he was going to jump any minute. I was stunned. I was only unstunned when I saw him jump. I used my magic and grabbed him. I levitated him back on the cliff.
"Spike, are you okay?" I asked him. He opened him eyes and saw me sitting there.
"Rarity, what are you doing here?" Spike asked blushing. I smiled and gave him a huge hug.
"Don't worry Spike. I'm here for you," I whispered to him.
"Rarity, can I tell you something," he asked, shyly. I already knew what it was but nodded yes anyway. "Rarity, I love you. I've loved you since I meet you. I haven't laid eyes on any other pony, dragon, or creature, besides you. I love you to the moon and back. I love you more than Pinkie pie loves parties. I love you more than Rainbow Dash wants to be a Wonderbolt. I love you more than all the books Twilight has read. I love you more than Fluttershy loves animals. I love you more than the cutie mark crusaders want their cutie marks. I love you more than all the muffins Derpy has eaten. I love you more than any other stallion before me," He whispered to me. We stopped hugging and I smile at him.
"You don't know how long I've been waiting to hear you say that, Spikey-Wikey. I love you too," I told him as I kissed his cheek.
"Prove it. Tell it to the whole world," he told me.
"I love you," I whispered to him.
"I said the whole world," he complained.
"You are my whole world," I told him. I had a tear in my eyes.
"Don't cry, beautiful. Beautiful mares like you don't cry," he told me as he kissed me on the lips.

I looked down and saw them both sound asleep. Spike and I both went downstairs. "When did they fall asleep?" I asked.
"They kicked the bucket around the part where I jumped off the cliff. Don't worry, I never get tired of that story" he smiled.
"Good time," I said and kissed him. "Happy 8th anniversary," I told him.
