I couldn't remember the last time it had rained this hard.

Normally I loved rain, but tonight it just made Pinkie's bar feel empty. I took a bite of the donut I'd been nursing and stared at the wall.

"You know she didn't mean it, Spike." Pinkie didn't look up from the mug she was polishing.

Spike! Please! Put the donut down!

I sighed, shrugged, and looked down at my donut.

"You do have a bit of of a problem, y'know."

Oh yeah? You gonna make me?

"That's rich coming from a black hole for sweets like you." I gripped my donut tighter. I was not in the mood for lectures.

I hate it when you get like this, Spike!

Pinkie put her hoof over my hand. I jerked it away and looked away from her. "Donuts don't make me say horrible things to my friends."

I don't have a problem, you… pointy purple pinhead!

"I said I don't have a problem."  I snarled. I was even less in a mood for lectures than before.

"You know what you said. I'm not gonna repeat it to you." She put the mug down and sat on the stool beside me. "She still loves you. But you need to apologize."

Spike? Spike! Where are you going?

Out! I'm goin' out!


"And if she deserved it?" I took a small bite of the donut.

"Then you should still apologize. Be the bigger pony and extend the olive branch first."

I looked down at the donut. "…maybe you're right. But what if she throws it in my face?"

Pinkie put a foreleg around me and hugged me close. I let her. "She's a big girl, Spike. She won't."

I nodded.

Pinkie patted my arm and smiled. "Go on big guy, she's waiting for you."
