It was December 13th and all of Ponyville were already in the full swing of the Hearth's Warming season. Everypony was hard at work shopping for gifts, while others were busy getting their decorations up and ready. The whole town was almost buzzing with Hearth's Warming passion. This holiday was going to be wonderful this year, even more so for a certain pegasus pony, who was out looking for a perfect gift; for a certain classy pony.

Derpy rushed home to drop off the gifts, before leaving in search of the perfect gift for the doctor. But what could she get him that he either doesn't have, or would like? She went to find him a new necktie, not like he didn’t have like twenty of them, but surprisingly they were all sold out. She rushed around frantically to find something and eventually her hunger and rather short attention span caused her to lose her train of thought and go get muffins.

Derpy came to a stop after a while and leaned against a tree. Her heart ached. No matter how much she tried, she could never dream of actually impressing the doctor. She was certain that he saw her as a simple friend and nothing more. Besides, why would he think any different about her? She didn’t think she looked all that cute, or at least cute enough for his level. The doctor had been all over the multiverse. What did Derpy have that he couldn't have seen from many others? Lost in thought and sadness, Derpy made her way home and wrapped the presents before heading to bed. Her head hurt from all the thoughts racing around in there and as she laid there, her heart ached more. Even more so as she continued thinking about the doctor.
