//------------------------------// // Chapter XIX // Story: Well, This Is Unexpected // by TheKing2001 //------------------------------// My eyes flicked around nervously as we all stood in an office building as Bon Bon looked around warily. “So what exactly did this building do?” Lyra asked as her flashlight reflected off some doors. “It was like a fucking nurses station in the asylum days but was turned into an office for the amusement park for the employees. Other than that, no clue,” Rainbow shrugged as she approached the doors. “Who wants to go first?” “Whaddya mean?” Pinkie asked cautiously as we all eyed the door. “Go up those stairs alone, come back down the stairs behind us and the next person goes,” Rainbow said with a grin as I frowned. “We record it on our phone too.” “Then why don’t you go first then Dash?” Applejack challenged with a smug grin. “And our phones all dead. We can’t record it.” “No.” “Sounds like ya are scared,” Applejacks smug grin grew as Bright Idea let out a chuckle as we all watched. Octavia gave a faint smile as Rainbow turned angry red. “I’m not scared!” Rainbow shot back. “Then you go first,” Rarity chimed in with a smirk. “Fine. I’ll go and prove to everyone in this fucking room I’m no pussy!” Rainbow shouted as she pushed the doors open and strode into the room confidently as they slammed shut behind her. We all looked up at the ceiling at the sound of Rainbows feet echoed through the ceiling. “Could you two quit making out and save that for your bedroom?” Lyra scoffed as Scribble Dee and Bright Idea stepped away from each other with bright red faces as we all laughed. “S-sorry,” Scribble Dee muttered as she rubbed the back of her head. “We can go go my house after this and go sleep.” I snickered and rolled my eyes. I hadn’t really known those two were dating until tonight. The doors behind us opened and Dash walked down the doors. A bunch of rooms lined the hall and Dash jumped as she walked past one. “That woman surprised me!” Rainbow laughed as she approached us. “I’m not pussy!” “Uh what woman?” Octavia asked in confusion as Vinyl gave a confused look. “The woman in that room to my left,” Rainbow said slowly as she looked back. “There’s no other people in this park except us,” Micro pointed out and shook his head. Applejack inhaled as she and Rainbow walked back into the room and came back out after thirty seconds. “There’s nothing in there,” Applejack said hesitantly and for a brief second, I thought I saw a look of fear cross Dashs face but it was gone in a heartbeat. “Who’s next?” Dash asked as I shrugged. “I’ll go,” I volunteered as Rainbow and Lyra cheered. “Bad ass bitch Sunset here,” Rainbow gave a cocky grin as Octavia and Rarity both shivered from the language. “Damn right,” Lyra added in as I opened the doors and inhaled. “I’ll come too!” Bon Bon said hastily as she stood next to me. I gave a nod as we started walking up the stairs as the doors shut with an echoing clang. “That startled me,” I muttered as Bon Bon chuckled. We both froze in the hallway and I looked to where I presumed her eyes were. A tapping sound echoed from my left as her blue eyes widened. “Do you hear that?” Bon Bon asked softly and I slowly nodded. “I can’t see you well, was that a nod?” “Yeah it was.” We both inhaled and continued walking down the hall. I slammed against the wall and gave a strangled sound as I looked in fear. “Uh what are you- mpfh!” I mumbled as Bon Bon pressed her lips to mine and I felt her tongue enter my mouth. Bon Bons weight pulled back and I panted as she blushed. “Sorry about that. I uh forgot you don’t like me back. Let’s just uh keep moving,” Bon Bon mumbled with a blush as I tried and failed to get the taste of skittles out of my mouth. “I never said that but okay. Let’s get the hell out of this God forsaken hallway,” I muttered and followed her. We came down the stairs behind the group as they all watched expectantly. I forced myself to keep my eyes straight as I felt like I was being watched. I didn’t know why, but it was hard keeping my eyes above Bon Bons waist as her dress moved back and forth as we stopped next to the others. “We heard you two asking about hearing something. Did anything happen?” Pinkie asked curiously as she grabbed my face. “We heard a tapping sound,” I answered and opted to leave the time when she kissed me a secret for now. “And when I was walking to you girls and guys, we felt like we were being watched.” “I felt that too,” Rainbow admitted. “And I heard footsteps behind me.” Rarity tapped my shoulder and pointed to my mouth and then Bon Bons. I looked at Bon Bon nervously as I wiped some off her lip stick off my lips with a blush as Rarity gave me a large grin and winked. “I see you two got up to some extra curricular activities up there,” Rarity purred quietly as I rolled my eyes. “Was it fun?” “I-I don’t know. I didn’t kiss her back. She stopped within like ten seconds. I can confirm she tasted like Skittles,” I admitted quietly as the others ignored us and kept talking. Presumably about who’s next and Bon Bon kept giving me nervous looks. “Well, go talk to her darling. She obviously went with you to tease you. Play along,” Rarity suggested as Rainbow coughed. “Let’s all go as a group. Now quit talking and let’s move out!” Rainbow urged as I rolled my eyes and we all opened the doors. “Stay quiet so we can hear anything.” “Funny she says that yet she was the loudest,” Octavia whispered as I gave a faint laugh. I grabbed Bon Bons shoulder as she jumped and gave me a scared frown. “Don’t scare me like that. Thought a ghost grabbed me,” Bon Bon huffed. “Look, I’m uh sorry about kissing you. Just don’t tell anyone.” “I’m right here,” Octavia reminded us as she gave a mischievous smirk. “But don’t worry loves, your secret stays safe with me.” “It’s fine. Really Bon Bon. Don’t worry about it,” I said as she gave a relieved sigh. “Just uh warn me next time. Thought a ghost was attacking me.” “You got it Sunset. Wait, next time?” Bon Bon asked hopefully as Octavia watched out of the corner of her eyes. “I don’t know. We will see,” I admitted as she nodded slowly. I inhaled and walked ahead of the two girls as Mystery Mint and Rarity followed behind them. I hated ghosts now, I just wanted to survive tonight.
