Letters to Vinyl

by runforever101


Then Everything Fell Apart

Vinyl Scratch was glad she could get her mind off of things with a small get together with her friends Platinum Record and Replay. They were at a fancy bar near the castle in Canterlot. Vinyl was glad she didn’t have to think about Enigma for one night, yet it always came back to her mind. Was I too pushy?

They were enjoying the night until Replay brought up Enigma. “So you told us about this Enigma guy who, like, writes to you when I saw you at the mall?”

Vinyl looked down. “I-I really just came here to get my mind off of things, guys.”

“Oh don’t be such a party pooper! You know you want to talk about him!” chimed Platinum Record in a silky voice.

Vinyl looked back up at them threateningly. “Guys, I’m serious!”

Platinum rolled her eyes and walked behind Vinyl. “You’ve changed ever since this guy came along! No drinking, no partying! You need to forget about that loser! I think Neon Lights likes you! He’s over there, go talk to him!” Platinum pushed the white unicorn.

Vinyl growled and spun around to her so-called friend. “Look, just calm down.”

Platinum gave out an evil chuckle. “You looove this stallion don’t ya?”

Vinyl’s hooves clenched. “Shut up.”

“Ooh! You do like this stallion!”

“Shut up!”

“It’s a shame though. I’ve seen those letters.”

Vinyl’s heart nearly stopped. “H-how?!”

“You leave them sprawled out against your coffee table! I came over to your house yesterday to check on you and I saw them.”

Vinyl’s anger was over the roof.

“It’s a shame, you tell him you love him and he just ignores you! He obviously doesn’t like you back!”

“I said shut up!” Vinyl grabbed her wine glass and smashed it over Platinum’s head. Replay looked mortified.

“So that’s how it is.” Hissed the silver unicorn. She used her magic to throw a couple’s table flying at Vinyl. Luckily she jumped out of the way just in time, but her leg was nicked.

Vinyl grit her teeth, ran up to Platinum and punched her in the snout. While Platinum was down, Replay stood up and punched Vinyl’s eye. Vinyl growled then kneed the pink unicorn and flipped the table on top of her.

A bouncer tried to stop the fight but a scrawny unicorn jabbed him in the side. Soon a mare stood on top of a table yelling, “Bar fight!” and used her magic to smashed her entrée in her date’s face.

Now it was a full on bar fight. Neon Lights came at Vinyl, trying to pour his drink on her head but a tall pegasus blocked her and kicked the stallion in his jaw. Vinyl brohoofed the pegasus and punched a large earth pony who was holding up the scrawny stallion. “Hey fatty!” he turned towards her as she threw a killer punch at his snout. “Pick on somepony your own size!”

He whimpered and dropped the stallion. He turned to face Vinyl, but she already had a plan. She picked up the pegasus who helped her earlier and chucked him at the earth pony. Vinyl was about to turn to another competitor, but a policepony ran in. “Everypony put your hands where I can see them!”

“Crap.”


Vinyl paced around her prison cell as a yellow pegasus ran in. “Glaze! I’m so happy to see you!”

“You better be!” she said as a policepony unlocked the door. “I just bailed your sorry flank out of this joint.”

As soon as Vinyl was free she hugged the other DJ. “Thank you.”

Their best friend moment was interrupted by the policepony telling them to get out.

They laughed and got out of there.


Dear Enigma,
I’m sorry but I have to stop sending letters to you.
Love,
Vinyl


Dear Vinyl,
Why do you have to stop sending me letters?
Sincerely,
Enigma


Dear Enigma,
Things have changed. I got into a bar fight last night, and you couldn’t come to my concert…

Sincerely,
Enigma


BUCK YOU! I CAN BUCKING DO WHATEVER I BUCKING WANT TO!


Dear Vinyl,
Just calm down. What did I even do wrong?


What did you bucking do? I bucking tell you every day that I love you, I invite you to my concert, I try to make a move but you’re too oblivious to notice!


Too oblivious to notice? Too oblivious to notice that you randomly started ending your letters with love!? What am I to you? Your coltfriend? I don’t even know you and you’re coming onto me!


At least all my family is bucking alive and well!

Sincerely,
Enigma


Dear Vinyl,
Please write back to me! I’m sorry! I am so stupid! I shouldn’t have said that and I forgive you for what you said about my granddad just please write back!
Sincere Love,
Enigma


Their lives went on. Vinyl started drinking again, but she could tell true friends from fake friends after the bar fight. Her move with the pegasus began to be used by the Guards. She released a new album about how her parents and family didn’t really love her. Her father, Fancypants , and her mother, Fleur de Lis, heard the song and swore to always pay attention to their daughter from then on. Her album made lots of money and she was happy spending time with her folks.

One day she abused her money privileges and lost her penthouse. She lived with her parents until she found the perfect place to live. It was a small building in downtown Canterlot . She didn’t expect to have a roommate, but she was fine with it. She and her roommate, Octavia, became best friends.

Enigma sulked about Vinyl for a little while, but then he perked up and traveled with his Vinyl doll to find his cutie mark. He earned two masters and a doctorate, but he still couldn’t find his special talent. He decided to move to Canterlot to get his cutie mark but he couldn’t find. He did make tons of friends though. That’s how he met Vinyl, as in actually met her. He knew immediately it was her, so he tried to be nice. But even in her drunken state she could tell that he was the stallion in the letters so she treated him like crap. Slowly she began to fall in love with him again, but he was abducted by changelings in the Canterlot Wedding incident and her heart was broken. She decided to move to Ponyville with Octavia to forget about him. Luckily, he managed to escape one day and he found Vinyl!

They fell in love once again. He loved her but he didn’t realize it. She loved him and she did realize it. One day she confronted him about her feelings, and he told her he loved her straight back. Everything was perfect.
