Around 1 a.m. we decided that it was time to hit the hay, I offered to get him a bottle of water He declined so I went to get one for myself. I came back with a bottle of water and put it on the ground next to where my head would be.
"So..." I said.
"Yea?"
"Why do you need to crash here?" I asked, "You are obviously somepony famous."
"Well I don't have a house. I would usually just stay with people, or maybe go to a motel."
"Why don't you have a house?" I ask "You probably have enough money for a huge one. Right?"
He flipped over in my bed to face me "I could, but I wanted to get it when I met that special somepony."
"Like that girl from a week ago?"
"No, not really." he sighed "Hey can I trust you with something? You have to promise not to tell anypony."
"I promise."
"Pinkie promise?" he said chuckling.
"What is that?" I asked
He sat up in the bed "You really need to get out more. You should see where I am from."
"Sure, why not?"
"Anyway, back to what I was saying earlier." he cleared his throat "Well, let's just say my barn door doesn't swing that way?"
"Are you coming out to me?" I asked
"Yea..." he scratched his head.
"No biggy, me too."
He didnt say anything
"You didn't know?" I asked sitting up in my sleeping bag "I figured that your (airquotes)friends(airquotes) would have told you about me"
"Well actually after I found out what happened I kind of flipped a shit"
"What do you mean found out? You were there!"
"Well, I was distracted."
"By what?" I asked.
"Well just hold your horses, and I will tell you."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~FLASH BACK~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He was helping me with my tray full of coffee, and he set it down on the table.
"Bye Spirit" I say as he walks away.
One of my friends fillyfriends said something and spirit stopped. I barely noticed that he stopped let alone knew what she said. I was distracted by Spirit leaving. (if you know what I mean)
I sighed to myself "If only."
I turn back to the table as something whizzes by my head and I see my friends laughing their flanks off.
"Enjoy the drink blanky!" one of the ponies at the table yelled
"What's so funny?" I ask
My friend still chortling said "The coffee guy... he.. haha. He is a blankfag"
I lost it.
"The FUCK is wrong with you? One, I told you I hate that word. Two, you don't just make fun of people like that! Three, you don't even know who he is! Four, he... You know what? Fuck you guys. I cannot believe that I have such morons for friends." I start to walk away. "Enjoy the coffee, assholes."
I walked out of there, searching for Spirit to try to apologize to him. He was nowhere to be found. I walked into the city feeling abandoned. seeing a music shop cafe combination I stopped in. I walk in and walk towards the lounge area.
"The last place I wanna be in is a coffee shop..."
While sitting down having some ice water a familiar white unicorn pats me on the back.
"Hey DP!" she said.
"Hey Vinny"
"Wassup buttercup?" she asked
"Oh, you know, just screaming at my best friends then storming off. So nothing new, how'bout you?"
"Just, you know, being popular and all. You should get away from that mask while you are performing. I think you would like the attention. You defiantly deserve it."
"Thanks."
"You seem more then just "fought with my friends" upset. Is there something you wanna talk about?"
"I think they know now."
"That you're gay?"
" 'Sno big deal, everyone knows I'm a fillyfooler."
"Yea, you made it a big fuckin' event too."
"Wassat supposed to mean?"
"That you LIKE attention, I don't. I just wasn't going to keep my talent from everyone so now i DJ with a mask on. If they figured it out, they would spread it like frosting. I don't think i could deal with it, what if they didn't like me anymore?"
"When you put it that way, I could see why you would be upset."
"Then," I continued "there is this colt, nicest cutest thing you've ever seen, great body, beautiful eyes... those a-holes just... just...*exasperated sigh* I need new friends, and a place to stay."
"Well i would have to talk to Octy first, but I don't think she'll have a problem with it. Unfortunately though, you would only be allowed to spend the night. See tomorrow is our anniversary, and you know..." she said raising her eyebrows.
"Ahh."
"Yeep."
She stood there awkwardly, and silently as i stared at her.
"Go ask her!" I implored.
"Oh! Right!" she ran off.
A few minutes and a couple of glasses of water later she returned.
"Octy said it was 'kay."
"Great, before I just become a house guest is there anything you nee help with?"
"No... Ye... I mean yes, yes you can."
More awkward silence.
"What do you need help with?"
"Oh right, I need about one hundred roses, and you cannot, I repeat CANNOT let Octy see them. Throw them though the window in the guestroom if you have to, but for the love of Celestia DON'T LET HER SEE THEM! "
"Okay, i got it. You can calm down now. Luna T Alicorn.*
We walked to the florist and like she wanted, we purchased one hundred roses. I had to carry them.
"What are you doing in this area anyway? Isn't your house in Ponyville?
"Yea, but we needed to get away for a bit." she said with a smile.
"Thanks for taking me in for the night." I said hugging her.
"Yea don't mention it"
We get back to their other house, fortunately Octavia wasn't home yet so I was able to bring the flowers in normally. Just as I finished putting the flowers in a bucket to keep them alive Octavia walked in the door.
"Hey Vinyl, how was that music store?" she asked.
"Great, I got a slave. Lol J.K."
"Speaking of which where is Donald?''
"My name is Deejay, it is not short for anything."
"I am sorry darling, I keep forgetting."
"I know, but it's sad that I have to tell you a third time."
"Hahaha," I could tell the was getting angry now." a Hayngover reference. So funny I forgot to laugh"(sarcasm)
"But you said 'hahaha' at the beginning" I pointed out.
"BUCK YOU!"
"Hey watch your BUCKING LANGUAGE!!!" Vinyl yelled with a straight face.
"Oh real matu-" she was interrupted with Vynle's hug.
"Shh shh shh... It's O.K. It was just a joke, no need to get upset. I'm sorry."
Her voice was like soothing music to a furious beast, Octavia calmed down. The two ponies started to sway and Octavia could be heard making a "mmmm" sound
"Aww." i thought to myself. "I wish that I had someone like that"
"Are you felling better?" Vinyl asked the now smiling pony.
"Mhmm" she said nodding.
"Great!" Vinyl patted Octavia on the back to signal that the hug was over.
Although disappointed she understood why she couldn't hug the pure white pony forever, she looks at me.
"Thanks by the way for letting me stay." I piped in.
"No problem Zecora."
"Haha, funny" I sarcastically replied.
"Hey we were just gunna go to a club tonight, wanna come with?'
"The Amazing DJ PON-3 being a guest at a club instead of the main act??? I am honestly and truly shocked."
"You coming or not?
"Yea sure, why not?
We all walked out of their house to the bustling city, even though it was night time there were still plenty of ponies having a good time. We get to a club and Vinyl talks to the bouncer and he lets us in through the back door. We walk through the kitchen and we start to hear the music, it sounds like someone is playing a piano... We walk through the kitchen doors and walk around the bar.
"Shawty in da club!" I hear some random pony say.
I leave the two ponies after agreeing to meet up with them in a couple of hours. I went and walked to the right side of the club (stage left) and leaned up against the wall for optimal auditory sensations.
The mood changed, there was a BPM change from 120 to 140.
"REVERSE BASS IS WHAT WE LIKE!!!" the sound wave knocked me off balance. Ponies jumped to the beat. I just stayed there standing, watching, by myself.
"Sigh".
"Hey there! Having fun?" a Purple colt with black mane and tail with green highlights.
"Yea..." I just stood there.
"What is your name?" he asked.
"Deejay!" I shouted over the music.
"Ironic. My name is Frankie Jeeves, but most ponies call me FJ.**"
The MC started to talk, "Mares and gentlecolts, can i hear you say Yo!"
"Yo!"
"We've got a special guest here tonight, give it up for the ONE, the ONLY, UNICORN KID!!!!!!"
"You wanna go some where quiet to talk?" FJ asked.
"I don't want to sound rude, but no, not really.
"Oh it's OK, I just thought you might have wanted somepony to talk to." He said walking away with a smile on his face.
The night was pretty boring, and after about an hour or so I found Octavia and Vinyl.
"I am going to go back to the house, OK?" I tell them.
"Yea OK" Vinyl said
"Rest well." added Octavia
I gave them both hugs before I left the club. It was dark, and I wanted to get home, but I didn't feel like flying. I wanted more to look at the last of the night life. I saw a bar and went in. It was a small place, not too many people and the bartender looked nice. I sat at a table and the bartender called to me.
"Hey kid! Could you not sit at the tables, we just cleaned them and the place is about to close. You can sit at the bar if you want."
I spent the last of the night in that bar, and when it was time for it to close I left a nice tip for the bartender.
"Back on the street, nothing is open but the clubs, I should just go home." I thought to myself.
I walked home. It seemed to be a longer walk home then it was to the club, maybe i was just tired.
I made it to the house. I went up the stairs and went into what was the smaller of the two bedrooms.
"I guess this is the guest room." I say.
I flew over my bed and just flopped down. I closed my eyes and i was out like a light.
