A Dream Come True
Vinyl twisted and turned in her queen sized bed, rolling in her blankets and biting her lower lip. She was not a pony who often dreamed, but her night was a special one because her dreams were both vivid and saucy. She smiled in her slumber, dreaming of an event she had long had the urge to meet, but had always been too shy to instigate. She tossed and turned, rolling about in her adventures and leaving a damp spot in her sheets.
As the morning light spilled through her window Vinyl awoke feeling exhausted. She was very okay with how she felt however, considering the circumstances of her dream. She trotted to her bathroom and started her day with a warm shower, smiling to herself with the memory of her dream and letting the water flow down her mane.
After lathering and washing her body she quickly dried off her fur and walked into the kitchen for breakfast. She turned the corner and blushed slightly at what she saw. Across the room Octavia was adjusting her bow tie and straightening her hair. She caught a glimpse of Vinyl staring at her from the doorway and laughed to herself.
“Good morning Vinyl” she said, walking into the kitchen to greet her roommate. Vinyl smiled back at her and opened the fridge to make something quick for breakfast. “Morning Tavi. Did you sleep well?” Vinyl asked.
Octavia spread some butter on a slice of toast and yawned. “I slept pretty well, thanks.” She sat down at the kitchen table and took a bite of her meal. “How about you Vinyl? Any interesting dreams?”
Vinyl blushed. She poured herself a glass of juice and tied to hide her face from Tavi’s view. “Yeah, actually, I had a dream or two.” Vinyl started to sweat. She didn’t want her roommate to pry too much into her dreams. She was by no means ashamed of the sultry mechanisms of her mind, but she didn’t want the world to know.
Octavia laughed. “Oh? Do tell.”
Vinyl broke out in a cold sweat. “Nah, they weren’t that interesting.” She lied. “I would just bore you.”
Octavia shrugged. She grabbed her saddlebag and adjusted her black dress. She had a recital to attend and she wanted to make sure she looked presentable. She was turning to her roommate to bid her farewell when she noticed something odd.
Vinyl had been staring.
Vinyl tried to look natural when her roommate had met her gaze, but she feared she might have been caught.
Did she see me stare? She tried to think of something to say that could save her situation.
“So uh, what time will your performance be over?” she asked. Octavia smiled as she threw her saddlebag over her shoulder. “I should be home around seven.” She said as she finished getting her things together.
Vinyl smiled to herself. “Alright, I’ll see you when you get home then.” Octavia waved goodbye as she closed the door behind her. Vinyl sighed and took the rest of her breakfast to the couch. As she sat down she couldn’t help but think of her dream. She thought back to how she had held her in her arms. She enjoyed the thought of her soft, silky caress. She wanted to be with her.
She took a bite of toast and thought about what she might do with her day. She figured she could work on her scratches, or maybe browse town for some new music, but she always got distracted by the thought of her. Vinyl had to face it. She was in love.
Vinyl never thought she would fall in love. She always thought of herself as a free spirit, but there was just something about her that had broken her demeanor. Her luscious curves, the way the light bounced off her in a candlelit room, it drove her crazy and it made her drip like a faucet.
Vinyl’s problem was that she was afraid. She was afraid of being rejected, and afraid that she might mess something up. She didn’t want to lose the only thing that had ever made her feel so happy. Vinyl closed her eyes and thought about what to do. Deep down she knew she had to make a move, but she didn’t know what she could do to impress her.
Octavia was off at her rehearsal, practicing to become one of the best cellists in Equestria. Vinyl knew her love wouldn’t be home until later. Vinyl searched her brain for a solution, when finally she had an idea. It would be risky, but she knew that the lady of her love was classy. Vinyl picked up her keys and went to the store to find something incredible to make for dinner.
* * *
She looked up at the kitchen clock. It was nearly seven and she knew Octavia would be returning home soon. She made the last preparations for the dinner, setting the table and making sure everything was in order. She barely had enough time to set the candles before she heard keys at the door. Quickly, she gained her composure and sat down at the table.
Octavia opened the door and peered inside. She let out a quick gasp as she saw the dinner that Vinyl had made. Steamed carrots, roasted squash and an array of all kinds of fruits and vegetables, she never knew that Vinyl knew how to cook.
“Vinyl, this dinner” she stammered “It looks amazing. How did you prepare it?”
Vinyl blushed. “It was no trouble. I just felt like eating a bit fancier tonight.”
Octavia blushed slightly, feeling as if she had an idea of what was going on. “You shouldn’t have gone through all this trouble.” She said smiling. She took a deep whiff of the food and her stomach growled at her.
Vinyl giggled. “Honest, it was no big deal.” She gestured for Octavia to take a seat and took a sip from a glass of wine. Octavia happily obliged her, not even taking the time to get out of her performance dress. She joined Vinyl in a toast and the two began their meal.
The two ponies talked about random business. Vinyl inquired about how the performance had gone and Octavia complimented Vinyl on her cooking. Octavia felt relaxed and confident, but across the table Vinyl was in a near panic.
I have to tell her. I have to let her know how I feel.
Vinyl cleared her throat and blushed lightly. She knew she had to tell her roommate how she felt. “Octavia, I uh.” She stammered. “I have a question.”
Octavia smiled. She had a pretty good idea what Vinyl was going to ask her. “Ask my anything Vinyl.”
Vinyl looked down and fiddled with her hooves. “Well, it’s kind of a personal question.”
Octavia smiled. “I can keep a secret.”
Vinyl blushed. She knew she could, and she knew she would listen to her, but for some reason it was just so hard to say. “I..well..” she said in a near whisper. “I might sort of have a crush on someone.”
Octavia sighed to herself with a smile. She is really bad at this. “Do you now?” She asked with a knowing tone.
Vinyl continued. “Yeah. I do. I’m just afraid to ask her about it though, because she might not like me.”
Octavia excused herself from her chair and walked over to her roommate. She rested her head on her shoulders and tried to comfort her. “I’m sure she feels the same way about you.” She whispered in her ear.
Vinyl blushed. “Do you mean it?” she asked nervously.
Octavia leaned in towards her roommate and whispered in her ear. “I could prove it if you want.”
Vinyl blushed and looked to Tavi. Only inches away from her face she smiled. “Are you sure? I don’t want to rush anything.”
Octavia smiled. “Vinyl, I think your crush has been waiting for this moment for a long time.” She turned away from the chair and walked off slowly to her room. “You are welcome to see how she feels if you want.”
Vinyl watched as Octavia turned the corner into her room. Her heart was racing. She never thought this moment would come. She slowly got out of her chair and followed her friend into the bedroom. When he turned the corner she saw Tavi sitting on the bed with her legs spread apart, fiddling with her bow tie. “Would you like to join me Vinyl?” she asked.
Vinyl nodded her head silently and climbed onto the bed with her. “I uh..” Vinyl stammered. “I don’t really know how to start. I wouldn’t want to make her feel uncomfortable.”
Octavia leaned in towards Vinyl. She gently brushed against her ear as she whispered “I’m sure she would let you know if you messed up.”
Vinyl’s heart was racing. It was now or never. Silently, she took a bit of Octavia’s bow tie in her mouth and she pulled on it, the article slowly sliding off her neck. Octavia moaned as she wrapped her hooves around Vinyl.
Vinyl closed her eyes in bliss. It was the moment she had been waiting for. She lowered her body onto the bed and nibbled gently on the bow tie. Sliding to the side of Octavia, she wrapped the fancy dress piece up in her hooves and massaged it gently. The gentle pink curves of the bow tie were too much for Vinyl to take, as she embraced the silky touch of it’s fabric. Vinyl brought a blanket over her body as she groped the bow tie with all of her strength.
Octavia’s jaw dropped as she watched her friend make love to her accessory. She watched the two make out for nearly a minute before she left the room heartbroken and confused. She slowly walked into Vinyl’s bedroom, turned off the lights and cuddled up with her sheets. She could smell the sweet scent of her body on them as she let out a steady stream of tears. She wrapped her hooves around the pillow and brought it to her face. Sobbing gently to herself she thought of the friend she had had a crush on for months. “Goodnight Vinyl.” She whispered to herself.
In the other room, Vinyl was damp from the conclusion of her dream come true. She turned off the light with her magic and held her love closely. She nuzzled into her pillow and smiled. “Goodnight bow tie.”
