//------------------------------// // Homesick? // Story: Spring Break // by Bahamut0 //------------------------------// Veenus, Fang, and Ace were hanging around the Dazzlings. However, Veenus noticed that Adagio seemed to have her mind elsewhere. "Something up?" Adagio snapped out of her thoughts. "..Nothing important. Just thinking about the beach trip that's coming up. It sounds like fun." "It's reminding you home. Isn't it?" Adagio let out a sigh. "Can't hide much from you, can I? Yes. Going to the beach reminds me a lot of our old home back in Equestria." "But...can't you just go back and visit anytime?", Veenus asked. All three of the former sirens fell silent before Adagio spoke. "There's no point because there's nothing left for us there anymore. And there's nobody waiting for us." "But...what about your family?", Ace asked. He then saw Sonata scowling. This was the first time he'd ever seen Sonata ever look angry. "Like Adagio said. There's nobody waiting for us.", Sonata said flatly. "...No one that cares about us anyway. The second we got caught, they left us to our fate!" Sonata began to tear up. "Our own mother...didn't even lift a fin to try and help us..." Aria had a pained expression on her face. "So you see, we're in no rush to go back. Here, we have people who care about us." Aria had a small smile as she scratched Fang's ears. "And a family we never had back home. Heh. I can't believe I used to think this world was the worst. Now? It's more of a home than Equestria ever was for us. Plus, no more constant struggle for attention." "Too true Aria." Adagio then caressed Veenus's face. "Especially since it seems like we've won ourselves quite the trio of devoted fans." "And yet you still have a total flirt demeanor around me.", Veenus said with a sly smile. "Care to explain?" "It's quite simple dear. The mannerisms I used during my initial arrival at CHS were to win over the adoration of everyone around me. But now?" Adagio leaned into Veenus's ear and whispered. "Now I live only for yours. Those who truly adore you stay with you no matter what. A quality I tend to find very attractive." "That, or you like teasing the poor guy.", Aria said with a smirk. "Maybe I just enjoy making him feel wanted.", Adagio shot back. "But who am I to say anything? All you need is a leash, and your boyfriend is literally your pet." Fang and Veenus just chuckled at the two going back and forth. Sonata shook her head as she snuggled up to Ace. "I should've figured this would happen. I don't like it, but I can't look away." "It is kind of fun seeing those two go at it.", Ace said with a nod. "Just wish we had popcorn for this moment." Pinkie then popped out of nowhere, and handed them a bowl of popcorn. Ace and Sonata took a moment to take in what happened, and shrugged as they munched away watching Adagio and Aria going back and forth. Sonata sighed happily. "My family."
