//------------------------------// // New Mares Eve // Story: Tales of Lyra and BonBon // by Polar Muffins //------------------------------// New Mares Eve By Polar Muffins Today is Monday. I searched on the calendar. Monday, Decemmare 31st. It was circled in bright red. I x - ed it off. New Mares Eve. For BonBon and I, it’s the day Vinyl Scratch comes to town. Also the day we get drunk. Fucking drunk. BonBon was still asleep. I looked at her. She is so cute when she sleeps! Her drool rolling off her lip makes me want to snuggle with her. I checked my watch. It was 12:00 pm. No time for sleep. I had to wake BonBon up to make reservations at “The Vine”, the best club for wine and the place Vinyl performs each year. Grapes owned the place. She was a very hot mom who gave birth as a teen. I used to date her when we were teenagers, until she went straight and had a child. Stupid Colt, making her pregnant like that. The good thing that happened at the end of that relationship was that I got a new loving, caring, beautiful, cooking marefriend that lasts to this day and a friendship with Grapes. Also every year on the day of New Mares Eve, Grapes lets us get a good seat and a promised reservation if we called her before 1:00 pm. I checked my watch again. IT WAS 12:10! If only I had fingers I could’ve pulled out my mane. Instead I raced over to BonBon and woke her up. “What?” She said sleepily. “IT’S 12:10!” “OH GOD!” BonBon yelled getting out of bed fully awake. She ran to get the phone in the living room. I followed. She dialed. I watched with anticipation. No answer. She dialed again. My hooves were on my head. An answer! BonBon put it on speaker. “Helloooo?” A raspy female voice said. It was Grapes and she was drunk as usual. “Grapes.” BonBon said. “Bonnie! Come to make a reservation?” BonBons nose wrinkled. I giggled. She hated that pet name I gave her. What she hated more was that I taught it to Grapes. Grapes knew she hated it. “I got you the second best seats in the house!” “Second?” BonBon asked. “Ya. Princess Luna has decided to pay me the honor of coming to my club! We are going to share a table you see. Good news is, your table is next to ours!” BonBon fainted. “One moment Grapes!” I rushed over to BonBon and slapped her. She was babbling about seeing stars when I did. When she came to, she sat up and was very alert. “Bonnie? Her nose wrinkled and I knew she was okay. Her nose unwrinkled. “Did she say Princess Luna?” “I most certainly did! Now are you takin’ it ‘cause I’ve had to put 10 ponies on hold talking to you!” It was Grapes voice coming out of the phone. “We’ll take it!” BonBon said. “Good. Bye sweets! See you tonight!” The phone beeped saying she hung up. I got up and turned it off. I looked at BonBon. She got up and looked at me. She smiled. I smiled. We ran towards each other and embraced. We started jumping up and down in circles singing: “We’re seeing Princess Luna tonight! We’re seeing Princess Luna tonight! We’re seeing Princess Luna tonight!” We stopped jumping and kissed. Lip to lip. Hip to hip. Our lips let go. ”Oh Bonnie! This will be the best night of our lives!” BonBons nose wrinkled. She laughed. I laughed. ~ I checked my watch. 5:00 pm. BonBon had ran to get the outfit she had ordered from Rarity 5 days ago. I had on my usual. Blue Jeans, a red and white striped T- Shirt, and a light green tie. “Where is she?” I mumbled to myself. We were supposed to be at “The Vine” at 5:00 pm to see Princess Luna and hang out before everyone came in at 6:00 pm. BonBon was late. I checked my watch again. 5:10. Time flew by like Rainbow Dash showing off. When I looked up I saw BonBon running up to me. She was wearing a beautiful purple skirt, a yellow top, and a purple and pink bandana in her hair. She was now standing in front of me. “Wow. You look Gorgeous!” I exclaimed. “Why, thank you.” She said. “Shall we go in?” “Sure.” I got up and stood on my hind legs. We both walked in. “Well, well, well! If it isn’t my two favorite mares!” It was Grapes and she had been waiting for us. “Hey Luna come ‘ere an’ meet my two gal pals!” A beautiful mare came out of the bathroom stall to our right. Her dark blue coat was beautiful, her mane was gorgeous, it was as if I had fallen in love with this mare of the moon. BonBon sensed this and elbowed me back to reality. Luna was most likely straight, she is thousands of years old, I would probably die before her, and I had a marefriend. Luna walked up to BonBon first (she was on the right) and BonBon bowed, Luna nodded. Next she walked up to me and since I was on my hind legs we were eye to eye. I bowed like a human male, bending only at the waist (that was the easiest way for me to bow). Luna put a hoof up to her mouth and slightly giggled. I smiled. BonBon scowled. I could tell she was jealous. I smiled even more. Let her be jealous. Luna walked away to sit next to Grapes, who was now sitting at their table and were facing the dance floor. “For now, you sit with us.” Grapes said. We walked over to their table. I sat down next to Grapes and BonBon sat next to me. Since it was a round table she was also sitting next to Luna and I knew that was the only thing BonBon was thinking about when she sat down next to me. “So. How hath thee met each other?” Luna asked us. “Well....” I began. ~ It was 1:00 am. The party had started ages ago and now it was over. I was walking home alone, for the millionth time. Since I am very emotional and do irrational things when I am, I tried a new method of letting out steam. Thinking about what happened. BonBon and I had danced our tails off. Had a lot of Beer, Wine, and any other type of alcohol you can think of, but to a lesser extent. We were fucking drunk. At 12:00 am, I left, without BonBon. The reason why I did not understand. It was a normal New Mares party until about 11:40. I guess BonBon is more of a drunkard than I am and probably drank more alcohol than I did, but this had never happened before. ~ I was dancing to Vinyl’s toons when BonBon came over from the bar. She was wobbling. Not slightly, a lot. I looked over to where she came from. The table was filled with dirty glasses. I stopped dancing and went over to BonBon to steady her. “How much did you drink?” “I don’t know, bitch. Hey bitch. I didn’t know you had 2 identical sisters!” BonBon was definitely drunk. She sounded drunk. She looked drunk. She never called me ‘bitch’ unless she was seriously drunk. “I’m going to get you to our table.” I walked her over to our table and sat her down. Her eyes moved toward Princess Luna who was seated at her table. “HEY BITCH!” Oh no. The music screeched to a stop. Everyone was staring at us. Luna looked confused. “YA YOU BITCH! THE ONE WITH THE FINE ASS!” Luna was blushing. “If you will excuse us for a moment.” I said as I was pulling BonBon outside. It was 11:50 pm. Almost time for the countdown. When we were outside, I sat BonBon down on the cold concrete. I was fuming mad. “What the fuck is wrong with you!?” “Fuck?” BonBon asked groggily. “Ya. Let’s fuck!” she got up and wobbled towards me. “BonBon, NO! You’re drunk!” I pushed her away and ran, tears streaming from my eyes, I couldn’t take it, the sounds of “3. 2. 1. HAPPY NEW MARES!” wringing in my ears, with BonBons hooves clopping back inside. ~ I was at home already getting undressed. I guess what happened was that BonBon was drunk and I had over reacted by crying, definitely not by running away. I got into bed and quickly fell fast asleep. ~ I awoke to somepony getting into the bed. I looked at the bedside clock. 5:00 am. I heard snoring. I looked over to make sure it wasn’t some creepy person. Nope. Just BonBon. I smiled. She is so dead tomorrow. ~ I awoke to the smell of waffles. 8:00 am. I would begin teaching how to play the Lyr in an hour. I got up. Stretched. I looked over to BonBons side. Empty. Suddenly the whole events of last night came back to me. I got up and stormed into the kitchen. BonBon was there making waffles. “You-” I didn’t finish my sentence because BonBon had place the waffles on the table. On them said “I’m Sorry” in syrup. I looked at her. There were bags under her eyes. “You, lost sleep, just to apologize?” She smiled. I ran up to her and hugged her. She hugged me back. “I love you so much Bonnie!” I squeezed her and let go. She also let go. Then her nose wrinkled and then unwrinkled. We both laughed. “Now go back to bed and take the day off!” I said. She nodded, yawned, and headed toward our room. I went to my human chair and sat down. I smiled the whole time I ate those waffles.
