Caramel: Shy. Reclusive. Awkward. He's a mild-mannered pony that hardly gets into trouble. He's a hard enough worker, doing odd jobs around Ponyville. He can fix roofs, help the Apple family with their farm, and can even foalsit! However, one tiny detail about Caramel's little life has always eluded him: Love.
Yes, it is a sad thing, to be all out of love. No matter what he tries, poor Caramel cannot seem to find a mare to be with... Every time he tries, he either chickens out or the mare doesn't see that he needs help with his insecurity. That and, being the social recluse that he is, and being loveless, he isn't exactly hip and happenin' with his vocabulary. But, fail as he might, Caramel diligently tries to court many a mare, hoping to one day learn the lingo of the world around him, break out of his shell, and find everlasting happiness.
Enter Colgate: Outgoing. Witty. Dentist. She's the tenth mare this week on Caramel's list for lucky times! She's everypony's dentist in Ponyville, and a darn good one, at that! She's single, likable enough, and has a bit of a "sweet tooth" for the aptly-named colt. Something about him... Intrigues her. So, they decide to go on a date. Colgate wants a nice pony to settle down with, one that she can show the world to (for she loves to be in control of situations, which is why she loves dentistry!), and one who may help her with her "special needs".
One is outgoing. The other is shy. One knows of the world through gossip, dental work, and parties; however, the other does not. They seem like the perfect match! But will things go awry? Will Caramel step up to the plate? And does Colgate have a fetish? Will Caramel find out the true meaning of modern words? Or will he "buck" everything up once more, like many times before?

"Bucking the Dentist"..... hahaha!!
Chapter title made me lol.
Anyways.... poor bucking Colgate!!
After all that bucking wind up I was bucking imagining some bucking funny conversation back in Colgate's bucking apartment. But I bucking guess you bucking well sorted it in your own bucking fine manner..... like a STUD.
Have a pinkiesmile
2735899 Wait...
What's a stud???
Anywhosit, I'm glad you enjoyed it and got a laugh out of it! It was my first attempt at true comedy, unlike my other parody/trollfic that mostly relies on random humor. Thanks bunches!
Love always and forever,

Umm... That flossing scene was... Uhh... Interesting... I'll be right back, I got to go floss.
2735919 It WAS interesting, wasn't it!?
The idea for that just popped into my head, and I just HAD to write it! Have fun with your dental hygiene!
Love always and forever,
-Ghost
Oh, wow, this fast, eh?
Dear lord, time to read.
Everything I imagined it would be. Great job, Ghost.
2737948 Haha thanks a lot, Shadow! Coming from you, a fellow writer who I deeply respect, that means so much to me! But, I, rather, should be thanking you for coming up with such a fun and ingenious idea! Like, real-talk, I had the time of my life writing this! Can't wait for the next prompt, whenever it may be!
Oh, and another thanks for the fave, as well!
Love always and forever,

People have respect for me as a writer? Intriguing to know.
And, I hope I can come up with another interesting prompt for the 29th. I do hope others will participate as well, because this is a great way to let people write stories with another person's ideas in mind.
This is something (shipping wise) I want to see more of. Minuette could be a bit less kinky per say, but I like the characters.
I love oppisites attract sigguations but all I ever find are two stories in which this happens affectively.
A Pinkies X Noteworthy story
And this story, which for being a comedy, which I lack the ability to write and over all hate reading most of the most, is great.
2738333 Thank you kindly for the advice. I actually wanted to call her Minuette instead of her fanon name, but I decided against it for... Reasons, I guess...
Regardless, I think I will have to check out this other story you've mentioned. This was meant to be a comedic one-shot for a writing prompt/kinda-sorta-not-really competition, but I may continue it... Once I finish my other two fics which, judging by my update speed, won't be for a few months.
Interestingly enough, while writing this I constantly thought "I really wanna delve into why she's so sexual and such!" but, once again, due partly to the prompt to keep the focus (and quick pace) of the story, I decided against it. Nevertheless, I sincerely thank you for taking the time to read it and comment. It really means a lot to me. If you want an overall (but only 3/4 done) more serious romance story that MAY surprise you, I suggest reading my other fic "What We Haven't Had". But it is, like I said, unfinished. Also, you do not have to read it by any means.
Whatever your decision, may you have a wonderful day/nite!
Love always and forever,

It's okay I read really fast but I can put it in my quite large read later list.
I have been studying for my next story mostly due to one being a one-shot one is a if you make a chapter it will be added regardless as long as it all fits and its above a thousand words and the last one is just crap loaded all together that I need to delete.
Oh and ones my dump heap of failed works so please if you would give one of them a read and comment. (If that's okay with you no rule against self advertisement for some self advertisement.
2738651 Haha that's fair. I usually try to check out the people that comment on my stories, anyway, just to show my gratitude. I will definitely check your work out!
Also, if you try a short short story/ one shot, you could always make two shorter chapters instead of one big one. Sometimes that helps if you separate the story into two parts, so when you go to reread it or edit, you won't have as much to go through at first. But that's just me. Plus, I'll admit, the 1,000 word minimum is kinda annoying. Especially for POEMS!
But I digress. Just take your time and you'll do fine.
Caramel
There's a difference between being awkward and being a complete retard. All I could think of was, he babysits? Who the hell would trust him with their children, I've seen/read Of Mice and Men you leave him alone with a foal and next thing you know, he's killed it with retard strength. 
2738724 Le GASP!!!!
Caramel, mentally defunct yet so quiet and meek that nopony pays him any mind even though he MAY or MAY NOT be a cereal killer!!!???? THE HORROR! Or hilarity, if you're into that stuff.
Anywhosit, the idea was to have Caramel be a bit of a retard, obviously. And obviously, based on your comment and facehoof, you were... pleased? Well, at least ya read it! That's a plus in my book! But anywhosit, Imma just go and say thankies, cause I'm not going to think subjectively, and neither should you! Wait.....
I laughed. Do I need to say more?
While reading this, I was already picturing some sort of cloppish sequel in my head, but the ending pretty much killed those thoughts. Still, it was enjoyable little story.
Have some cute Ditzy.

2739799 Hee hee. Cute Ditzy is Cute. Glad you enjoyed it, though! Thankies for taking the time to read it and comment!

A sequel, if not a continuation story is in order, Caramel should really go back to getting his terms right and to get the signals right... Especially apologize to Colgate, Immensely.
I was the first to thumbs up. I deserve a cookie
,So where is it
2743348 A sequel, eh? Maybe... I agree that Cara would apologize to Colgate and the nine other mares... ONCE he learned what they meant with the words they used and got away from his insecurity. Actually, a sequel doesn't sound too bad. But it's also the ponies' fault for using that word to mean sex in the first place! Thanks though for reading it and giving your thoughts!
Love always and forever,
-Ghost
2744488 Qué???!!! *Immediately hands cookie, squees nervously, wishes that it were possible to see who upvoted and downvoted stories.*
*Waves happily and thanks from far away, making silly Googly eyes!*
Love always and forever (and with cookies!!),
-Ghost
This is great, I was grinning like an idiot the whole time through.
2766010 Thanks a bunch for taking time out of your patrol to read this, Mr. or Ms. Guard! Thank ya kindly.
Now, back to your station!
Love always and forever,
-Ghost
I like your version of Caramel tho way he has his own unique personality, I hop to see more of this Caramel in the future
Oh man, this was absolutely brilliant
well done 
2774199 Awesome! I personally kinda get annoyed how every story I've seen has Caramel as shy, but not very smart. I put a spin on a character trait overused for him, and I think it turned out well. I can see writing more of him in the future, definitely!
2776847 Haha! Thanks a lot! I truly appreciate it!
Love always and forever,
-Ghost
2777333 and ill be shore to read more of you story's in the future
There I was, reading the story and preparing to skip the clop. Then I start to think, "No, he won't..." He did. That is amazing. Very funny. I hope somebody will clue him in.
2781464 AHAHA! Oh my, I laughed way harder at that than I should have! Thanks! Hopefully one of those Canterlot "snobs" will show him a how to and whar for!
Love always and forever,
-Ghost
so i was not sure exactly what was gonna happen, i knew it would be funny, but that ending, i died
2802884 Hee-Hee. I guess you could say that I KILLED MY AUDIENCE!! *ba-dum tish!*
Thanks though. I'm glad to be able to bring smiles and DEATH to readers! Thanks for the fave also! Don't forget (if ya want) to check out my other stories! Like romance? Got it! Like poems? Got those, too! Want a crossover where the dynamic duo known as The Doctor and Mister Spock solve a murder mystery in Equestria and Darth Vader comes as well to kill ponies??!!! WELL I GOTZ DAT AS WELL!
Okay, shameless promotion over.
Love always and forever,
-Ghost
...I...uh...wow...I kinda love how you write Caramel...That's too damn funny.
2803030 REALLY?!!? WOW... I'm honestly shocked so many people love how I wrote him, as if nobody else on this site has. Although, since I love reading Cara fics, I wanted to do something different for my version. But seriously. I'm really really shocked that just about EVERYONE wants to see more of this version of him... I'm really tempted to write a sequel. But Mr. Ferret, thank you so so much for the comment, fave, AND ANOTHER WATCHER (does epically bad victory dance)!!! Really, it's cause of guys/gals like you that make this worthwhile! Thank you sosososososo much! Be sure to check out my other stories, as well if ya want!
Love always and forever,
-Ghost
This is priceless!!!
I love it hope to read more of your awesome stories, especially about caramel.
4408468 thanks a lot for the comment! And sorry it's so late! I think, since my other stories aren't going anywhere at the moment, I may start writing a mult-chapter sequel to this...
But the question is; who should be the ponies involved to clear Caramel of his awkwardness??? I was thinking of having Vinyl Scratch involved, but I'd want someone more out-of-nowhere and obscure shipping-wise, like how Colgate gets no love and stuff!! Any ideas would be appreciated!!
Love always and forever,
-Ghost
Well. That explains the other nine mares.
Although Colgate is probably going to be rather upset when she wakes up. 
4617925 Oh most definitely! Think of her lost teeth!
I've got an idea in my head involving these two for a sequel, but no idea who Caramel should learn the rules of the modern world from. Any ideas? Don't worry though, Colgate will make a return.... Once I finish my other stories that is.
4619269 I say revenge.
Let's say she gets Caramel in her office for a checkup, bt accidentally "botches" his teeth. At which point she tells her what happened after she woke up missing teeth.
Revenge in general would make for a good storyline.
4656321 Oh, totally. That's actually a really good idea. I can see it now: Caramel getting on pretty well with his new life in Canterlot, maybe finally having a marefriend to break him out of his shell, when during a monthly checkup for his teeth, who should be there but the vengeful Colgate herself! Hilarity ensues. Brilliant! Thanks!
4658971 Thanks! I love writing stories, just haven't posted any yet.
