//------------------------------// // Chapter XXIX // Story: Family Trip // by TheKing2001 //------------------------------// Fuchsia “So Sunset is letting you go on a date with her brother?” Watermelody asked in surprise as we sat lazily on the floor of my room. Trixie laid on her back as a snore came from her throat. Lavender was leaning against the wall as she watched Trixie. Wallflower was in the shower I think. Either that or mom was. I still had no clue if she was quitting her nurse job or not. “Yeah,” I said and flipped my hair. “I mean why wouldn’t she? I’m a nice, young attractive girl. And I’m a good friend. She said so herself.” “I mean fair,” Watermelody agreed as a thin line of drool worked it’s way down Trixie’s jaw as she snored louder. “I can’t believe I’m dating the loudest snorer I’ve ever met.” “And plus I have a nice body that I work hard for,” I continued as I swayed my hips a bit and Watermelody turned red along with Lavender. “And I can use a stripper pole pretty well.” “I’m almost afraid to ask,” Lavender muttered under her breath. “But why do you know how to pole dance?’ “Octavia taught me.” “Why does Octavia know how to pole dance?” I threw my hands up and shrugged. I had been stunned too. If only they knew that Fluttershy knew how to as well from middle school gymnastics. I had assumed it was some kink Vinyl had or something. “How the hell should I know?” I commented as my door opened. “Hey Wallie.” “Hi,” Wallflower muttered as Lavender nudged her with a grin. “Hey Lavvie.” “Heyo. How’s it going?” “So so I guess. You?” “Never better,” Lavender commented as Watermelody smiled at Wallie. “Currently getting told about your sisters secret pole dancing career.” “Oh she has one too?” Wallflower asked sheepishly as we all stared in stunned silence at her. “I probably shouldn’t have said that.” “Oh we are so talking about that later,” I grumbled as I went to my closet. I pulled out a shirt skirt and top, tossing them on my bed. “Anyway, I was going to wear these. Thoughts?” The girls who were awake stood at the edge of my bed and I watched their faces intently as Wallflowers eyes widened. “Are you trying to date him or are you trying to fuck him?” Watermelody asked finally as she picked up my pink skirt and examined it closer. “I mean date obviously. Gotta get his attention first,” I said and swayed my hips again as Wallflower looked away quickly. “And I know how to work what I got unlike some certain girls at our school.” “I’ll give you that,” Lavender admitted after a moment. “I can give lap dances but that’s pretty much it. Want an example?” “I think I’m good,” I said quickly and Lavender cracked a grin. “And besides, Sunset would kill me if I fucked her brother on the first date. Wouldn’t be my first either.” “Flash Sentry, eighth grade,” Wallflower commented as we all stared at her again as I blushed. “You said he was an awful lay and you didn’t finish and he did within ten minutes.” “I could have gone my entire life without knowing that,” Watermelody muttered under her breath. “What are you guys doing for Halloween?” “Hanging out with Wallflower and watching horror movies.” “Sleeping.” “Hanging out with Trixie.” Trixie gave a loud snort in response as she rolled on her side. We had been up late last night doing a magic show and she was pretty much the only one who didn’t drink almost an entire gas station worth of coffee. “I need to change sooo,” I said and coughed as the girls quickly left, Watermelody and Wallflower dragging a snoring Trixie. “Peanut butter crackers!” Trixie shouted as I snorted and Lavender shut the door. I picked up the skirt and gave a smug grin. Time to show Fluttershy and Sweet Leaves who was really the best girl at Canterlot High. Primarily Fluttershy. I strode into the restaurant I had asked Sunburst out to with a confident smile, my purse hanging on my shoulder as a few people looked over. I rarely did my make up but this was the exception. Sunburst sat a table and I strode over, sitting across from him and crossing my leg. “Hey there,” I said sweetly and winked as he turned red. “Good evening.” “Hey. You uh look nice,” Sunburst offered weakly and I grinned internally. Wallflower and Lavender were both surprisingly talented in make up given that Wallflower never wears it and Lavender only does on a rare occasion. “You do too,” I commented as I examined him. He wore a white shirt that I’m pressuring Sunset had taken him to get. Either that or Rarity. I glanced over at six people sitting nearby in black trench coats and hats with matching sunglasses. “Looks like the mafia is in town tonight.” “Oh no that’s uhm Sunset, Lavender, Rarity, Indigo, Sunny Flare and Bon Bon. They think I didn’t see the outfits in Sunset’s car but well I have a good eye,” Sunburst admitted as I smiled. I had kinda figured they would do this. “So Sunburst. Tell me about yourself,” I said in a low tone as I leaned across the table slightly. “Sunset has only told me so much about you.” “Well, I’m the Royal Crystaller for Princess Cadence and Flurry Heart. I live in the Crystal Empire near the castle. What about you?” “Magician assistant. I play the sampler and guitar for the illusions. Lavender and I both prefer the sampler more though so that’s we use when we perform,” I said as I sipped from my water glass that had been waiting already. “What’s a sampler do?” Sunburst asked curiously as I admired him. He looked better in my opinion clean shaven then he did within facial hair. I’ll have to thank Flash for that even though talking to him will be a bit awkward. “A sampler is a digital device or program that can capture, store, and play back audio samples,” I explained as he nodded. “So during the battle of the bands, we recorded the sounds we wanted for our song we performed ahead of time to use for the competition. Lavender and I had minor lines in the song. Mainly just echoing some words Trixie said like rejected or dejected.” “I know two worlds Trixie’s and there’s not really much difference. Both are supportive in their own arrogant egotistical blunt way,” Sunburst commented as I choked on my water a bit. “Yeah that sounds like Trixie,” I giggled and smirked. “Wanna hit the movies after this?” “Yeah sure. Uh what is the movies like here?” “Oh you’ll see.” I internally pumped a fist and grinned to myself. This was going better than I hoped.
