Rarity: A Short Story by SuperBrony87 One day, I met a lady. An ivory mare unicorn with a curly, glittery violet mane and she had a shiny polished horn. She was the pony, RARITY... Rarity, both in name and Rarity in her beauty, for whom which no pony else can rival. She looked at me and I was taken aback (blush), for she was attractive to the eyes, truly alluring. It was like gazing onto precious gems like diamonds or sapphires. various gems that sparkle in the light. I was suddenly aware that I was very much nervous from her gaze. Knowing that I am not a noble stallion or wealthy. Frankly the way she acted and carried herself. I felt unworthy to look upon such beauty and grace. Once, I got over that and snapped back to my senses. The she was still there before me. She didn't actually reject me straight out the gate nor did she turn away from me... I stayed and relaxed some. Once we got to talking, I took notice of how intelligent she truly was. Rarity was a lady of refine tastes and style, she liked to hold herself in high standards. Some might say she's selfish, snooty and a drama queen. I say she's not those things. She goes on to mention she's passionate about "generosity". Which is probably the exact opposite of selfish if you ask me. Afterwards, Rarity and I took a stroll and more was revealed to me... Like how insightful she was how she took notice of details which plays well into her chosen career as a fashion designer. I knew of her through magazines that she was in. I'm not one for women's fashion so when I say "Seen her in Magazines, that had her in them" I mean, I glanced them in the stacks of the store's magazine aisles shelves. However you don't need to be a mare to know that she is very talented in her work. I told her right off that and she was delighted... Whether it was the praise or the fact that she was getting mentions that she was in a magazine, as she has tried to get her face in magazines for years. Could be either or both. Who doesn't like receiving acknowledgement for your work? I know I do.
So back to the story... We walked and talked and walked some more and as we kept on soon it was getting late and I told the fair Rarity that I'd like to see her tomorrow night for I had booked us tickets to the Grand Galloping Gala. She was elated when I mentioned The Gala she appears to really love it. I was even more elated that she agreed to my invitation. As I said aside from the fact I was doing my best to be of my absolute BEST behavior. I was still an average stallion... Tomorrow night. That night... I arrived at The Gala and made sure that I dare not be late for it is rude to keep a lady waiting and I knew that. She arrived and she looked at me and she smiled. I waited still then she walked over to me and we entered together. I held my passes out for the gate guard to see and permit us to enter. Then going in there was another door. I opened the door an let her pass a demonstration of my uh gentleness. The Gala was all impressively decked out with all the snazzy decors. Princess Celestia was overseeing the event herself, as she always does. Looking radiant as she always does. In my mind I thought Rarity was even more radiant tonite... and hoped dearly that she couldn't read minds... Wait! You mean she CAN?... oh boy, hehe, (gulp). Yet despite my sudden worries... I hoped that this night would go out splendidly for her. Then, I offered to get Rarity a drink from the snack bar with all the assorted goodies and the finest punch you'd see at these gigs, I hear that The Gala gets 3 star chefs to cater these gigs. The finest restaurants in all of Equestria. This is actually the first time I attended one of these... So like a proper gentleman pony that I was and hoped deeply that it was working on her. See, Rarity was a lady that you did not want to disappoint. Odds are you'll never get another chance with her.
So when she agreed, "Oh yes please, thank you darling." She replied. I went and got her a drink from the snack table adorned with fancy foods and the finest liquids, I got a glass filled it with the drink then I walked back and carefully handed the glass to her. A spill on her fine dress would not farewell for me here. My worries aside when she takes the glass with her unicorn magic, the horn not even more shiny with a sapphire glow, it seemed to bring out her eyes as the glow what the blue like her eyes...
I waited a while, then soon I got the notion to ask her to a dance. Yet I would have not minded if she told me something or asked me. Ya know to give me a sign that she was willing or whatever, instead of me just suggesting things... You gotta time these things just right or everything could fall apart... She was a proper lady. The perfect gentleman, pony for a perfect lady. So I had all the moves, we danced and flowed around the dance hall giving a rather impressive performance while doing so. (If I do say so myself) I was hard determined not to screw this up with her. Which fueled my desire to make this night an absolute dream for her. Even if for one night that I could be her Stallion. This was gonna be quite the night to remember.
Young was the night and our first dance ended. As the night went on, I could go for a few more round but why rush anything? So we stepped out for a spell and I led her out onto a balcony, then we looked out on the beautiful night sky above and I gave thanks to Princess Luna for such a display tonight. (I wonder if she heard me?) So moving on, me and her under that night sky with it on Rarity's eyes were magnificent. I was truly looking at such beauty that for a moment remembered the feeling from before that I was unworthy to even look at her. Yet here I was with her nonetheless, and the night was indeed going splendidly. Absolutely nothing could ruin this night. I probably should mention that she was not bored either. (BONUS!) We got to talking again and that was nice too but I would have loved us just staying here in this moment and that it would just stand still. Gazing upon her and admiring her. Ah, the sheer wonder of a perfect night sky... Especially when the sky is reflected in her eyes. I want to kiss her but I withheld myself. Well, this IS our first date. If even there was to be more. A true gentlepony does not kiss on the first date... Even if the night goes so well. So magical, so perfect such as tonight.
I must be absolutely sure when and where it is time to. maybe there will be more days, more nights to see what unfolds. Until then, I remain here in the moment with her... Rarity, the most beautiful, the most radiant pony in all of Equestria. To think this all started from a chance meeting and to me. Surely, I am a lucky pony to have had such an experience.
