Spike whistled as he had finished his chores and went out for a calming walk. He then bumped into something.....something huge.

"What the?" Spike the looked up. "Whoa!"

"Hello." greeted the tall mare.

"Whoa...who are you?"

"Why, I'm Troubleheels Clara, and I'm here to be the rodeo clown in Ponyville's rodeo.

"Oh, you're the mare Apple Bloom and her friends were talking about."

"That's right." she nodded.

"Wow, I already have the specially modified guest room for you ready, I was just leaving to check the preperations for the rodeo."

"That's......convenient." she replied.

"Yeah, I...didn't expect you to be so big."

"You calling me fat?" She asked with a threatening face.

"Ah! Don't hurt me, I'm just a kid!"

"Hah, I'm just messing with you."

"Oh ha ha." replied Spike with sarcasm.

Troubleheels then gave Spike a little noogie. "I like you little guy, feel like showing me around this place?"

"Sure."

"By the way, what's your name kid?"

"I'm Spike."

"Well, hopefully we get to be great friends dragon."

"You too, large mare."

"Boy, didn't I already tell you?"

"I'm just kidding with yah Troubleheels Clara."

She shook her head as they walked through town.

"Well look at that, this must be the quills and sofas home base."

"Yeah, the business really took off because of all the quills Twilight buys and all the fainting couches Rarity buys."

"She needs that many couches?"

"Haha, she sometimes just leaves the couches and sometimes accidentally drops then into a river or ditch."

"Weird."

"Yeah, but she finds a way to make things work, she always does."

"Is that s..." Then Troubleheels tripped, into a rolling position where they crashed into a punch of soap boxes!

"Ow..." Said Spike, who got crushed by her weight!

"Sorry." she spoke getting off Spike.

"Yeah, but it seems I've sold myself flat." Spike joked.

"Don't worry, I'll re inflate you." Then Troubleheels Clara blew air into the flattened dragon's mouth.

He resembled a balloon and flew around like a balloon with the air let out. After Spike was back to his original shape, Spike blushed.

'It was mouth-to-mouth, doesn't count!'

"Where else is there?" asked Clara.

Later...

"Welcome to the wateringhole."

"Nice place, bright and sunny with no mountains around to ruin the sun."

"And a great place for a soak."

That's when Troubleheels tripped over a lost toy, launching Spike into the water!

"I can't swim!" Spike shouted.

"Uh oh." Troubleheels rushed into the water as Spike flailed around. Troubleheels threw Spike onto his back and then performed CPR! Aka, more none kissing mouth-to-mouth. Spike awoke to find his lips on Clara's again.

"You alright?" she asked at seeing him sit up.

"Y-yeah?" 'It doesn't count!'

"Maybe we should just go and hang out at Sugarcube Corner, I'll pay for the sweets."

Later...

"Hi!" greeted Pinkie.

"Hey, how's about a smorgasbord for my big friend here?"

Later...

Troubleheels Clara rushed food into her mouth!

"Slow down Clara."

But she didn't and eventually stopped breathing!

"Oh-no!" Spike then performed CPR on her!

This time Clara noticed their lips were pressed against each other.

"Hmm...boy, have you been trying steal kisses from me all this time?"

"W-what? No! I'd never do something so devious!" stammered Spike.

"You sure about that?"

"Yes!"

"So, you don't like the feeling of our lips being together all day?

Spike blushed at being reminded of those two times.

Troubleheels then put their noses together. "Want some more sugar?"

"Uh...no-no! Oh look outside, the sun's going down. We should get you to your room so you can rest up to knock 'em all dead tomorrow, besides, what we were doing all day was just mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, not kissing at all."

Spike dashed out of there before anything else could be said. He just laid on his bed, sweating from what had happened.

"That was crazy."

Then a knocking came to his bedroom door, but then the knocker accidentally punched through the door.

"Sorry."

"Oh don't be, it was all by accident."

Clara pulled her hoof free before pushing the door open.

"Don't worry, a carpenter will replace that door...why don't you come in?"

"Appreciate it. Look, I really had fun today."

"Me too."

"I wanna cheer you up with a comedy routine."

"Ooh, an exhibition!"

Spike sat up to watch closely.

Troubleheels then hopped over a few barrels until she landed on her flank on a jack! Causing her to jump!

Spike watched as she flew through the air.

That's when she landed on Spike's bed!

Spike and Clara were dazed from the crash, but after they opened their eyes, thier lips touched again!

"Okay, I am counting that one!" Spike said.

"You better." smiled the mare.

Then she kissed him even more and Spike just decided to take it.

"*yawn!* I'm getting tired."

"Well, considering I nust crushed yout bed, maybe you could sleep on me?"

"You mean, use you like a bed?"

"Yep, a bed that'll hug you throughout the night...unless I need to go to the bathroom."

"Not a bad idea."

So Spike grabbed laid on his belly, embracing Clara, and letting his eyes close. "Good night Clara."

She then hugged him back. "Good night Spike."

Then the 2 of them went to bed.
