Yet another grueling week passes by as fast as the Thunderbolts. It was filled with the usual coffee stains and ninjas; the only other thing was I had to unclog the Golden Toilet of Unforgettable Amazing Awesomeness That Has A Really Long Name In Celestia's Bathroom. So yeah. Great week if you love labor that causes bad back aches and muscle cramps.
Anyway, I do my usual morning crap, squeal cause its Saturday and head out the door to the Warehouse. I check my watch to make sure it was the correct time. I do the usual secret knock and the door opens. Standing there is Octavia, but in her Silent Chuck outfit. I slam my hoof into my face. Ouch. "Octavia, I thought we agreed you would come to the arcade without your alias' outfit!" She blushed and turned her head. "Take it off." I command. I takes a few more minutes of persuading and arguing, but she becomes regular Octavia again with her collar or whatever that thing is.
As we start to walk to the arcade, I notice that Octavia is walking a ways away from me. I then realize she is making it look like we are not together on this mission. I defy what she wants and walk right up next to her. She doesn't notice me, so I say "Boo." She jumps. "Don't do that!" she yells angrily "I'm nervous enough as it is!" I ignore her and keep walking beside her, even if she tries to walk away from me.
After what seems like forever, we finally reach Le Arcade du Fancy McPantsiness. At least, that's what I called it. In reality, it was called Fatty George's Fat Filled Pizza Shack and Arcade. But doesn't what I call it sound better? Anyway, I walk in as casually as can be and deposit a few coins into the machine to get some tokens. I look around for Octavia and she is doing her best to not be noticed by any of her fans. I hand her half of the tokens and we walk over to Pony Man.
I deposit my token and she does the same as she gulps and looks around nervously. The game starts. Now, I'm gonna be honest. I'm not gonna say she was able to beat me by using some hidden power up to kill me and everything else in the maze. I'm not gonna say she was able to get all the points you can get in one round before I could even move. What I will say is that she was so nervous that she was shaking her fore hoof very much. Thus making the controller go all crazy and making her lose at every corner. I was able to beat her in thirty seconds flat.
"Octavia! Just relax! Don't you remember what I told you at the Warehouse? Just be calm and play like you had that disguise on." I don't know what the heck is wrong with that pony, but it takes a crap ton of persuading just to get her to calm the fudge down. I mean, dear Celestia! Anyway, this seemed to calm her down, as she was starting to get more points. By the third round, she had gotten 500000000 points. I was amazed.
We were having the time of our lives. Or at least, I was. This is possibly the most fun I've had in my entire life. Anyway, after a few more rounds, we got bored of it and went to other games. A fan of Octavia had spotted her, and she didn't even care! I was very happy about this. After a few hours of playing, we went to go and eat some fatty pizza. I decided to be a gentleman and buy the meal. I mean, it was only one bit for the entire pizza.
"I must say, this is the most fun I've had in ages!" said Octavia chomping down on her pizza slice. I smiled and continued eating. I was very content right now; I mean, I was able to go on a date with a popular cellist, eat pizza that tasted kinda crappy, and when I smiled during all of this, it didn't hurt. On the outside I just had a small smile on my face but on the inside, it was like New Years all up in there.
Very soon, it was getting late and we decided it would be best to go home. I said goodbye to Octavia but she didn't do the same. I looked around and she was right next to me. "I thought you were going home." I said, very confused. "Well.... I was kinda wondering... if I could possibly come to your house?" My heart must have got a pogo stick or something, because it wound up inside my mouth. "Uh... um. dee... dah." She looked a little depressed "Oh, I understand if I can't come." she gave me big puppy eyes. Could anyone say no to that? So I said yes. Score 1 for Pillows the low life.
Author's Note: I'm really sorry guys. This chapter probably isn't really good. I agree with you. I think I have hit writer's block or just need a little break from writing. I just didn't want to keep you guys waiting for the next chapter. That being said, I don't know when the next one will be. Anyway, see ya around!
