New Year's Kiss

Chapter 7

Pinkie and Cheese were at Vinyl's house getting everything placed for the upcoming party.

"Hey Pinkie, you sure this is a good destination for the party?" Cheese asked, setting up some streamers.

"Why? You got another suggestion?" Pinkie asked, jumping up and down to get the other set of streamers on to the high ceiling.

"Well, my uncle just bought a ballroom downtown, and I was thinking that we could use it," Cheese said,"so, you know, it wouldn't be less of a New Years Party."

"You do have a point there, Cheesie," Pinkie said, and then she stopped jumping,"Let's check it out!"

"Okay!" Cheese said excitedly, for he hadn't seen the inside of the ballroom himself. Both he and Pinkie put the streamers in the bag and told Vinyl about the change of destination. Then they were on their way to the building.

The car ride was surprisingly silent. Usually, the two would pass the time by playing "I Spy" or singing songs on the radio. But, instead, Cheese kept his eyes straight on the road, and Pinkie was looking out the car window. Neither talked to each other for five minutes. After, Pinkie had gotten bored and decided to turn the radio on. She then heard a familiar tune blasting through the car speakers.

"Hey! I'm on the radio!" Pinkie squealed.

"That's you?" Cheese asked, eyes still on the road.

"Well, me and my friends. Wait 'til they hear about this!" Pinkie took out her phone and texted her five friends about what was going on. By the time she was done, Cheese had stopped at a red light. Pinkie was humming to the music of the song.

"How'd you get on the radio?" Cheese asked curiously. Pinkie shrugged.

"Probably Principal Celestia's doing," Pinkie said, twirling her hair with her fingers, again. She had been doing that a lot lately, and she was starting to wonder why. The biggest question on her mind was why around Cheese. She looked at him, but his eyes were still on the road, waiting for the light to turn green.

"Cheesie?" Pinkie asksd.

"Yeah Pinks?" he said, starting to get a little nervous.

"Can you look at me for a sec?" Pinkie asked. She was trying to test something.

Cheese slowly moved his head towards Pinkie. His eyes met with hers. They stared at each other for a few moments. Pinkie scooted over in her seat to get closer to Cheese. She started to raise her head up towards his when a honk startled them both. Cheese turned back to the road and started to drive again. Pinkie scooted back into her seat quietly, trying her best to get the blush off of her face.

"Oh no," Pinkie whispered to herself. She never had this feeling before. Her head was in HIS scarf. She had just noticed that small detail. She remembered that Cheese gave her his scarf because her face started to turn red from the cold, or so they both thought. She never returned it because of the smell. It was comforting to her, and she soon had forgot about whose it was. She looked at Cheese again without moving her head, and then straight at the road. Things were getting more awkward between them nowadays. It wasn't the same as the first day they met. Pinkie took out her phone and started to text Rarity.

"PLEASE come to the ballroom downtown now," Pinkie sent, and she put her phone back in her pocket.

After about twenty more minutes of silence, they finally made it to the ballroom. They both got out of the car and into the building. Cheese pulled a key out of his pocket to unlock the doors of the building. When they were both inside, they saw a hallway leading to bathrooms of the opposite sexes. In the middle was a sleek wooden desk and a chair. on opposite sides of the desk were doors, possibly leading to the ballroom. Pinkie and Cheese went through the opposite door, leading to the big room itself.

"Cheesie, it's amazing!" Pinkie yelled, admiring the decor and the hanging chandelier. The room was your typical golden-like ballroom with two balconies on each sides of the room. In the back was a stage for perfoming. It had dark purple curtains surrounding it. Pinkie spun around the room on the slippery floor.

"Careful, Pinkie. My uncle just waxed these floors," Cheese said. He took his jacket off and put it on the chair outside.

"Don't worry about me, Cheesie. I'll be just-" just then, she couldn't control her moves. Just as she was about to fall on her face, Cheese slid across the floor to save Pinkie from falling. He grabbed Pinkie by the arms and they both slid together on the floor.

"We're skating, Cheesie!" Pinkke squealed, and Cheese laughed. They were both laughing and anddoing tricks in the air. Pinkie jumped high in the air and did a flip. She fell in Cheese's arms, and they both laughed. As soon as the laughing stopled, they both looked at each other the same way they looked in the car. Pinkie smiled a bit, and Cheese did too. Pinkie raised her head up to Cheese's again,and they both started to lean into each other...


"Pinkie! I'm here! What's-" Rarity looked at Cheese and Pinkie getting ready to kiss each other, but for some reason she knew it was too soon.

"PINKIE!" She yelled. Pinkie and Cheese both looked at Rarity, startled. Cheese accidentally dropped Pinkie to the floor.

"Pinkie! You okay?" Cheese asked, holding a hand out for Pinkie to grab.

"Yeah, I'm alright," Pinkie said.

"Oh dear," Rarity said, looking at the two party animals.
