The day after Rarity invited Spike to the Carousel Boutique, Spike awoke feeling that something was amiss.  He looked over to find he was up before Twilight Sparkle!  He had been so happy last night that he fell into a deep and fulfilling sleep almost instantly.  Spike had expected to get a good rest, but waking up before Twilight?  That was something to check off of a bucket list.  Spike tiptoed downstairs, hoping to get something to eat before Twilight woke up and put him to work.  As he poured a bowl of cereal, Spike's thoughts began to dwindle back to yesterday.  Before leaving Rarity's shop yesterday, Rarity and Spike had talked a bit about what they might do about the publicity of their relationship.  
       "Well I honestly don't mind who knows Rarity, it's just that we're together that matters to me." Spike had said.
"Well, I don't know.  I'm not quite sure what people would think of a pony-dragon couple.  And then, there are our ages as well...  Anyway, I simply cannot think of it ever occurring before!" Rarity had replied, a bit more worried about her public image than Spike did, being the owner of her own business.
"There's a first time for everything I guess Rarity.  But if you don't want anypony to know, consider my lips sealed!" Spike had said as he strengthened the grip he had on Rarity's hand affectionately.
"Thank you Spike, I appreciate that immensely." Rarity had said with a glow of gratitude, leaning in to give Spike a hug which he gladly accepted.  Spike thought he heard somepony going up the stairs to the floor above as he embraced the hug, but quickly dismissed it.
As he awoke from his flashback, Spike heard hoof steps coming down the stairs.  He quickly put on a dull face as if he had just woken up.
"Spike?  Am I still dreaming or are you awake before me?" Twilight asked in state beyond shock.
"This is all a dream!  Go back to bed and leave Spike alone today!" Spike joked, putting on a mystical face much like Zecora's.
"Ha ha, that's very funny Spike.  Let's hurry up and eat, I plan on doing a lot of studying today." Twilight replied in a sarcastic manner at first, but quickly changing to a serious tone while pouring herself a bowl of cereal.  
"Sure thing Twi!" Spike said back in an as uppity voice as possible, trying to hide his distaste.  What Spike really wanted to do today was, of course, go see Rarity.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After eating and doing a couple of chores, Spike looked at a clock on the wall.  It read 12:00 PM, and Spike shed some sweat of relief.  They had been working for quite a while, it was certainly a good thing that Spike got up so early today.
"Okay, Spike, I think that's it for today.  You're free to go." Twilight said.
"Thanks Twilight, but don't think twice if you need me, just let me know!" Spike called as he ran out the door.  He was headed for, where else, the Carousel Boutique.  On his way over to Rarity's, Spike stopped into the Cakes' store to buy a cupcake for Rarity.  
"Hello there Spike, what can I do for you?" Mrs. Cake asked Spike as he approached the counter.
"Oh hey Mrs. Cake, how's business going?" Spike asked as he eyed over the assortment of sweet treats they had on display.
"It's going just fine Spike, thank you" she replied.
"That's good.  Hey, this cupcake looks pretty good!" Spike said as he pointed towards a cupcake almost the size of a small cake, with a vanilla chocolate chip breading and chocolate frosting.  "How much is it?" Spike then asked.
"Oh, it does look pretty yummy doesn't it?  Lemme see... That'll be 5 bits please!" Mrs. Cake said back with a warm smile on her face as she put the cupcake on the counter.
"Okay... Here you go, five bits." Spike said, taking the cupcake in a bag and exiting out the door.  "Thanks Mrs. Cake!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Spike arrived at Rarity's shop, he knocked on the door, pondering a last minute decision if he should hide and surprise Rarity with the cupcake or just give it to her outright.  He decided to just give it to her, seeing as the bag was rather large and noticeable.  When the door opened though, it was not Rarity that answered.  Instead, Sweetie Belle sat at the door.
"Hey Spike, what brings you here?" Sweetie Belle asked in her upbeat, childish tone.
Spike's mind was trying to think of a way to get past Sweetie Belle, failing miserably, when Rarity came out from behind Sweetie Belle.
"Sweetie, could you go up to your room?  It looks like Spike has brought me some materials I asked him to buy me."  Spike instantly thought to himself why he hadn't thought of that.
"Okay Rarity!" Sweetie Belle replied as she started up the stairs, actually listening to her sister for once.
Once Sweetie Belle's door had been slammed shut, Rarity started to say, "Oh, I'm terribly sorry about Sweetie Belle I tried to get her to-" but she was interrupted by Spike saying;
"It's alright, she's not that big a deal.  Anyway, I got a cupcake for you on my way over here from Sugarcube Corner!" Spike said, pulling the cupcake out of it's bag and showing it to Rarity.
"Thank you so much Spike!  It looks delicious!  Let's split it now, I've been starving all day." Rarity replied with an expression of surprise and joy.
"Okay, sounds good, it is pretty big haha!" Spike replied.  "Just let me go grab a knife-"
"Oh no Spike, it's quite alright.  We are going out are we not?" Rarity said, cutting Spike short.  Rarity then leaned in to take a bite of the large cupcake.
"Oh, I thought you might want to cut it.  Oh well!" Spike said as he also took a bite, clearly being unphased by sharing it.   As Rarity took another bite, some of the frosting got on her cheek.  Spike, feeling a bit hyper from doing chores for a couple hours, leaned in without a thought and sneaked a kiss to Rarity, cleaning it off.  "There, you had a little something there" Spike said afterwards.
Rarity began blushing furiously, slightly embarrassed by Spike's advance.  Noticing this, Spike quickly added "Sorry... I shouldn't have done that... We've only been going out for a-"
Rarity, quickly regaining her composure, leaned in and kissed Spike on the cheek as well.  "It's okay." Rarity replied, her blush deepening even through enjoying the affection.  Spike began blushing harder yet than Rarity, stumbling to say "I... uh... thanks... uh... that.... That was nice...", not quite sure how to put it.
"Yes... it was wasn't it?" Rarity agreed after a short silence.  "Do you want... to try it again?" Rarity hesitantly asked, deepening her blush further yet.  
"Uh... Yeah.  I think I'd like that..." Spike replied, shyly looking away before returning an intimate gaze to Rarity.  Rarity started to lean in to kiss Spike, as Spike himself did the same.  They each hesitated a moment before pressing into a gentle conjoining of their lips.  Spike began to reach around Rarity, holding her in a sweet embrace of passion.  She returned this, gripping Spike tighter than he did to her.  They stayed like this, shifting their arms once in a while, for a few minutes before pulling away.  
"I... I don't quite know how to... to describe that Spike, other than the fact that it was wonderful" Rarity said, looking at Spike with a feeling of deep intimacy.
"Yeah..." Spike said bluntly, at a further loss of words than Rarity was.  As he happened to look outside, the sun was setting.  It had not been minutes, but hours they had been like that.  "Whoa... It's getting late.  I should probably get going before Twilight suspects something." Spike said, astounded at how long it had been.
"Oh my, it has been a while, hasn't it?  Well, goodbye Spike.  Try to come by tomorrow, will you?" Rarity replied, equally shocked.
"Sure thing Rarity," Spike replied, before adding "love you."  He then started towards the door.
"I... I love you too Spike." Rarity said back as Spike opened the door.  After he left, Rarity heard a noise on the stairs.
"Okay, could you explain what just happened?" Sweetie Belle asked.
"What!?  Were you watching the whole time?" Rarity replied, not sure if to be furious or scared of how much she saw.
"Not the entire time, but what do you expect?  You'd sent me up to my room for almost four hours!" Sweetie Belle replied.
'Four hours?  My god!' Rarity thought.  "Well... as I'm sure you figured out... Spike and I are in a relationship now.  He told me about his feelings for me a few days ago at Twilight's party.  I decided to see what it would be like, and here we are.  Things just got a bit out of hand tonight.  Please, don't tell anypony though!  We're not sure what everypony would think..." Rarity sheepishly replied.
Sweetie Belle then said, "Well I figured you two were going out, just kinda wondering when it started.  And don't worry, I won't tell anypony.  Seriously though, a few days ago, and you're already making out for-"
"WE WERE NOT MAKING OUT! We were... well.  Yes, we were 'making out', I guess." Rarity replied with first rage, and then a calmer tone.
"Haha, duh.  But if you ever want some privacy, just let me know.  I'll go to the Cutie Mark Crusader clubhouse or something" Sweetie Belle said.
"Oh, thank you so much darling!  That would be wonderful.  I don't want to seem rude, but Spike may be coming over again tomorrow" Rarity said with an as thankful and happy voice as possible.  
"No worries, Rarity.  I'll be out with my friends tomorrow.  I'll try to see if I can spend the night" Sweetie Belle replied jokingly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Back at the library, Spike walked in the door to see Twilight looking at him from a table.  Closing a book she had been reading, she asked, "Where have you been all day?  It's been almost 4 hours haha!"
"Just took a walk by Applejack's farm, it was really relaxing." Spike lied, before continuing "I just lost track of time I guess."
"Well try not to next time, okay?" Twilight responded, unaware of his bluff.
"Okay, I'll try to Twilight.  I'm pretty tired though, gonna head off to bed.  G'night Twilight!" Spike said, being entirely truthful about the last part.  Somehow, being with Rarity had tired him out.
"Sweet dreams, Spike." Twilight said before getting up to grab yet another book.
As he lie there in his bed, Spike began to think about the day's events.  He had finally kissed Rarity!  After all this while, he had admitted his feelings, developed a relationship, and finally, kissed Rarity!  This was going better than he could have ever dreamed!  As he gave himself a pat on the back, Spike closed his eyes and was presented with sweet dreams of his girlfriend... of his love.
Spike further explores his relationship with Rarity, pondering what everypony else might think. He ends up staying with Rarity for quite a while...
