private Love is Sweet (1x1 with Dynamo Pad)

Dynamo felt Orange lean into him more and he decided to wrap his arm around her waist. Hearing Orange talk about a chance of them not meeting made Dynamo frown at the thought. He then smiled and nuzzled her, before replying, "When you put it that way, I can agree we probably wouldn't have had a chance to meet. Although, I still believe we would have met no matter what. I probably would have met you in the candy shop or even during the arcade. We might bump into each other and it would lead us to where we are now. I'm just really happy things turned out the way they did now. If I had the opportunity to go through it all over again, I would take it with no hesitation."

 

Dynamo noticed Orange petting Starling and talk about her. He couldn't help but smile softly at the interaction between the two sisters. "She really is a precious little filly. I'm glad we were able to find her as well." He said as they neared the orphanage. Hearing about the group getting ice cream later made Dynamo grin at the idea. "That sounds great. Hopefully if this all goes well, maybe we can have an ice cream celebration."

"That sounds like a really lovely idea Dynamo" Candy says with a smile, she was so happy that Orange was finally getting over her jealousy and bonding with Starling, she smiles at Chocolate who was going through everything in his mind.

 

"n-no, that won't do, they certainly won't accept that" he mutters to himself, then notices his lovely and beautiful wife smiling at him, he smiles at her "Don't worry sweetie, I'll have everything sorted by the time we get there" he says with a soft smile.

 

Starling looks up at Dynamo "you going to mawwy big sis?" she asks with a giggle

Dynamo chuckled and smiled at Candy's response. "Thank you Mrs. Hearts, Starling came up with the suggestion. I just felt like adding to the idea." He said with a smile on his muzzle. He looked to see Chocolate muttering to himself about what to say when they got there. While he chuckled silently at the sight, he couldn't help but feel the same way.

 

As soon as he heard Starling's question, Dynamo's eyes widened. His jaw dropped and his face turned into a beat red blush. "W-Why do you a-ask, little sister? I m-mean don't get me wrong, I would love to someday marry Orange. A-Also, we are still in school and w-we just got together yesterday. I don't want to rush the relationship. It is a nice thought though." He said as he scratched the side of his muzzle. His eyes drifted towards the ground, thinking it was interesting to look at due to him feeling a little shy and nervous.

Orange blushes and hies behind her mane, "I-I'm t-too young" she says softly before they finally arrive at the orphanage, where Candy was beaming with a wide smile on her face.

 

"Here we are sweeties, time to finally get our little Starling officially adopted into our family" she says with a smile and wheels the stroller in, with Chocolate, Orange and Dynamo following close behind.

 

The mare at the desk looks up "Hello ma'am, sir, how may I help you?" she asks

 

Candy smiles and giggles "Well you see, my daughter and her cute coltfriend found this cute little filly out on the streets yesterday, she says she has no family and that her name is Starling. We would like to adopt her as a member of our family"

 

The mare smiles "You certainly did the right thing, lets just check our records..." she says, and goes through them "hmm, odd, there isn't any record of an orphan bat filly named Starling, however.." she says as she gets out some paperwork "Even though there isn't a record, there wasn't any records of missing fillies either, so I can with a clear conscience, help you through the adoption process."

Dynamo walks in with the group and sees a mare at her desk. He stands back as Candy and the mare talk about Starling's adoption. As the two mares talk, he closes his eyes and rubs Orange's hand with his thumb. He felt nervous, but didn't want to give up on hope. As the mare helped the family on the adoption process, Dynamo let out a breath he didn't know he had and cheered. He began to pick up Orange in his arms and began to spin around with her. "Alright! We did it! We did it! We did it! Starling is going to be a part of your family! I'm so happy for you Orange." He said with a big grin forming on his muzzle. He stopped spinning and pulled Orange into a tight hug.

 

As he let go from the hug, he noticed that Orange looked a little dizzy. He rubbed the back of his neck and chuckled nervously to himself. "I'm sorry Orange. I'm just so happy for you and everypony. Now she truly is your sister. I guess the tests weren't truly that bad." He placed Orange's head on his shoulder as he ran his hand through her mane.

@@Dynamo Pad,

 

Orange giggles as she is spun around by Dynamo, but does feel a little dizzy. She soon recovers composure and nuzzles him lovingly "I-I'm so happy" she says softly and wags her tail somewhat, almost as if she were a puppy.

 

Candy and Chocolate both heave a sigh of relief, knowing now that they'd be able to adopt their little darling daughter, "Such a relief, we had a pretty bad argument this morning on whether or not we'd be able to adopt her" Chocolate says with a somewhat resignation to his tone "From what I heard, the adoption process is really lengthy and difficult to pass" he explains as Candy nods in agreement.

 

the mare smiles and shakes her head "Times have changed, while normally it would be little more difficult, as she isn't in our system yet and that you actually did the right thing by coming in today instead of just taking her in, I can tell you genuinely care for her" she says with a sparkling white smile before pushing the parchments over to them.

 

Candy smiles and quickly reads them then sings them, as does Chocolate, Candy kneels infront of Starling and hugs her, kissing her forehead, keeping her close "You're a part of the family now sweetie, you'll be very well looked after and very much loved" she coos softly to the little filly who was crying happily.

 

The mare smiles and signs her parts "Now, normally there is a fee, but once again ,as she isn't one of ours, there isn't one, though.." she says and sadly looks to the donation box "there is an option for a donation..but I couldn't.."

Chocolate shakes his head "We'd be more than happy, how does four thousand bits sound?" he asks as he gets out a cheque book.

 

The mare's eyes light up "T-that'd be wonderful! That' be enough to keep the orphanage open another two years plus new clothes, plenty of food and of course outings to their favorite places" she says happily, and as she sees that Starling still had tears in her eyes, she smiles and uses her magic to levitate a small brand new plush toy of a tundra wolf to her, she then holds it out to her. "Hello there sweetie, you're very lucky to have such loving and caring parents, I want you to have this little wolf to hang onto, take good care of her okay?" she asks, nothing but kindness and gentle care in her eyes.

 

Starling looks up, shyly takes the wolf and hugs it close to her, nodding "I-I will, I p-pwomise" she says cutely.

 

Candy smiles and as they all bid the mare goodbye, she beams "Right, now who's for Icecream?" she asks in a very happy and bubbly way.

Dynamo watched as Orange began shaking her tail in happiness. He couldn't help but chuckle at how cute she was being. Dynamo had a surprised look on his muzzle at how much Chocolate had donated. He didn't question anything as he was feeling so happy for the family. He also couldn't help but smile at how generous the stallion had been. He looked at Starling who was happily crying while being in Candy's arms. "I'm so happy for you little sister. Now you are truly a part of this family." He said as he looked at Starling with a soft smile. At the mention of ice cream, Dynamo got an excited look on his face. "Oh! Oh! I do! I do! Now we can have an ice cream celebration!" He shouted while wildly waving one arm in the air.

I have the perfect marefriend, I've got a little sister and the adoption went very well. Today just feels like it's going to be a great day. I have a good feeling.' Dynamo thought as his grin turned into a soft smile. He looked over to Orange as she held him closely towards her.

Dynamo smiled at how caring Sunset was to her friends. "Okay sounds good. See you later and it was nice meeting you Sunset." Dynamo waved as Sunset was leaving the ice cream parlor. Dynamo sat down next to Orange as he was being nuzzled by her. "Your welcome sweetheart. I know what you mean. I feel really lucky to be considered a part of this wonderful family." Dynamo smiled as he continued to eat his ice cream. Suddenly, a playful little smirk had formed upon his lips. He took a small scoop of his ice cream on his finger. He booped the ice cream from his finger on Orange's muzzle, chuckling a little while licking the ice cream off of his finger. He then leaned towards her and licked the ice cream off of her muzzle. He blushed and saw her blush, but he smiled and nuzzled her.

 

Suddenly the door to the ice cream parlor opened again a new couple had entered. "Aw, isn't that just sweet? You two are being so lovey dovey right now." The mare smiled and giggled at the sight. Dynamo looked up to see it was his parents. "Mom? Dad? What are you guys doing here?" His eyes widened a bit in surprise, but he was happy to see them. "Your father and I went out shopping and we noticed you walking towards the ice cream parlor. I can also see you and a mare arm in arm and looking so happy together. I'm guessing this is your marefriend?" Gentle Step smiled and walked over to Dynamo and Orange.

 

"Yup, that's right mom. Orange this is my mom, Gentle Step. Mom this is my marefriend, Orange "Sherbert" Sparks. Also this is my dad, Quick Fix." As he heard his son address him, Quick Fix walked over to where his wife was standing to introduce himself. "As Dynamo said, my name is Quick Fix. It's a pleasure to finally meet my son's marefiend." Dynamo then got back to the question at hand. "So what are you guys shopping around for? Did you get anything while being out?" As Gentle Step was about to answer, Quick Fix cut in to answer. "Yup, just some stuff for dinner and some clothes here and there. After we saw you and Orange together, she wanted to spy on you to see how you two were-ow!" He couldn't finish his sentence as Gentle Step began to pull on his ear.

 

"What your father meant was we saw you two and we really wanted to meet the mare that captured our son's heart. He couldn't stop talking about you last night and today. You've made him the happiest colt in all of Equestria." Gentle Step giggled as she saw the couple blush at her words. "Do you mind if we join you, honey? We'd like to get to know more about you and Orange." Gentle Step asked as she pulled out a chair, but hesitated as to not be rude. "I'm okay with it, but only if Orange and her family is okay with it as well. What do you think, sweetheart? Do you want my parents to join us for a little bit?" Dynamo then turned to Orange to see what she thought of all of this.

Gentle giggled at the thought while addressing the young couple before her. "I'm glad you approve of my son Candy. Quick and I have raised him well. He has his father's funny and playful nature, while his kind and caring side is from yours truly. I can also tell by the way your daughter acted when I talked to her, she sounded so familiar to me. She definitely resembles you Candy and there's no mistaking that. So tell me, what has my best friend been up to all this time?"

"I'm glad to know you followed your passion after graduating Candy. You always did have a sweet tooth and the treats you made were always the best. For me I moved to Fillydelphia to work on my dream of dancing. I was a dance instructor for the time I was there and it was fun teaching fillies and colts to dance. Now I moved back here after my son mastered his magic and I enrolled him at the academy. I still work full time as a dance instructor, but I teach different styles of dancing to hopeful and determined young ponies." Gentle saw a little filly in Candy's arms jump towards her.

You can call me your Aunt Gentle and you will always be considered family to us as well."

I don't know who could ever abandon such a sweet and adorable little filly like this, but I'm happy if she had to go to one family, it would be yours Candy. You were always like that when you were younger. Whenever you saw something you loved, you wouldn't stop until it was yours."

I know he'll always be with you and take care of you like a big brother should." Gentle continued to nuzzle and play with the little filly in her arms.

 

"That's actually very interesting Chocolate. I'm glad to know your shop has become quite successful. I've been a carpenter and a welder by trade. I met my wife Gentle when I was called in to fix her studio. After repairing her studio and seeing her grace and beauty in her dancing, we've been together ever since. I'm also a stallion who loves racing and sometimes, I head to the trace where the wonderbolts race to have a little competition." Quick said, getting lost in thought of what he enjoyed doing. He then opened his eyes and smiled, before replying, "It makes me as a father proud to hear that from somepony. Dynamo is a good colt and I know he's not like many stallions. He's been through a lot where we originally lived and he's grown because of it. Dynamo sees the good in others and I think he found a deep connection to Orange.

"If one didn't know better, they could very well be sisters. Having dinners and other activities sounds great. It would help these two families to grow and the love between our children to grow as well. I can agree that this meeting is like a blessing in disguise.

He tried to gain his balance, but gravity won against him as he hit his back on the floor, his ice cream going flying. "Ow, that hurt. Hey did anypony see where my ice cream went?" Dynamo looked up and saw his ice cream sailing downwards towards him. As it fell and was about to hit him in the face, Dynamo used his magic to levitate the ice cream, inches from his face. "Whoa, that was close. For a second there I thought it was going to..." As he was talking he lost concentration on his magic and the ice cream hit him in the face. "You know what...just...nevermind." Dynamo sighed to himself after all that had happened.

 

Quick laughed at his son as Dynamo tried to get up. After fixing the chair, Dynamo decided to sit back down. Gentle levitated some napkins for her son, before replying, "You still have to practice on your magic control, my son." Dynamo sighed, but nodded as he wiped the ice cream off of his face. "Yes mom. Still I don't get why you asked that. First is was Starling and then you. Is there any reason why you would ask that?

You see, during our last year in school together, Candy and I asked each other what we wanted to do in the future. We both knew we wanted children and I kept telling her she would have a filly and I would have a colt. We both thought that maybe one day our children might end up together and maybe get married as well. At least I was half right on our children would get together." She smiled at Candy as she saw the young couple blush a deep shade of red.

@@Dynamo Pad,

 

Candy nods in agreement "That sounds wonderful,  and yes I remember, those were the days" she says. sighing in nostalgic remembrance "In fact,  I believe I met chocolate on the night of our graduation celebration" she says as she looks over at the two stallions with a smile on their face and her ear twitches at what Chocolate was suggesting "I think our husbands have the right idea, we should organize dinners and such, heck even double family holidays" she says, and looks to Gentle before quickly hugging her tight and nearly crying into her mane "Oh Gentle, I've missed you so, so much! I've actually been rather depressed since we parted ways" she says softly, still hugging her best friend.

 

Chocolate nods and smiles as he pays for another ice cream for Dynamo before going back to his conversation with Quick "Indeed" he says with a shake of his head "Orange is a very special filly, and it warms our hearts to see her happy" he says and then looks to his wife crying into her best friend's mane he smiles "not going to lie, we're still trying to find a tutor for her, but it's been pretty difficult"

 

Starling tugs on her mother's sleeve "mummy, why are you crying? A-are you sad?" she asks, worried that her beloved adopted mother was upset.

 

Candy wipes her tears and smiles "no sweetie, it's just I've missed your auntie for a long time, and I've finally found her again" she says, scooping up the worried filly and kissing the tip of her muzzle "it's nothing to worry about"

 

On the other hand, Orange couldn't help but not only blush at Gentle's question, but also giggle at Dyanmo falling over and having his ice cream hit him in the face.

@,

 

Gentle couldn't help but smile at the idea. "That sounds wonderful. Things like Nightmare night and Hearth's warming would be great for both families to spend time together." Gentle felt Candy embrace her and felt the tears in her mane. Gentle trembled as she returned the hug, shedding tears with a smile on her muzzle. "I missed you so much as well my friend. I'm sorry you were sad when we parted way. Not a day went by when I missed my friend. I know I had Quick and he always made me happy, but I've always missed you. I'm so glad I was able to find you once more." She said as she tightened her embrace in the hug while giggling.

 

Dynamo watched as Chocolate had given him another ice cream. After thanking the stallion for his generosity, he watched as the stallion went back to converse with his dad. "Thanks, but you didn't have to do that. I would have gotten him another one. That's still really kind and generous of you." Quick said as he smiled at what his friend had done for his son. "What kind of tutor are you looking for? If it's anything magic related, I think my wife, Gentle, would be perfect. She was able to help my son gain better control of magic after he gained his cutie mark. If there is anypony who can help in that regard, it's definitely Gentle." Quick said as a curious look appeared on his face. 

 

After thanking Chocolate for the new ice cream, Dynamo began eating while thinking of what his Gentle had said. 'I never knew my mom would plan something out like that so far in advanced. While I can definitely see Orange and I being together for that long, I still feel that we should know each other more, but I won't throw that possibility away. Only time will tell.' He thought as he glanced at Orange and saw the blush on her muzzle.
