Worst idea ever! Not only did she wake up with a headache and the urge to vomit. No, she also woke up with no memory of what happened after she had had that drink-those drinks- with something warm pressing against her back. Wait, something warm pressing against her back?
Octavia shot out of the bed with a horrifying scream. She panicked. She’d woken up in a stranger’s bed with no memory of the last night. This had to be the worst possible thing that has ever happened to her. She decided to look around the room, not quite able to look down at the pony she had slept with quite yet. The more she took in the more familiar it seemed. Wait, could it be?
“Ugh, Taaavi! I’m trying to sleep!” Vinyl said, turning her back towards Octavia and pulling the pillow over her head.
“V-Vinyl? Oh thank Celestia. What happened last night?” Octavia let out a relieved sigh. Once the initial shock was over the urge to vomit was back. Octavia charged into the hallway before remembering she had no idea where the bathroom was. “Vinyl! Where’s the bathroom?”
“Second door to the left!” Vinyl grumbled. Octavia shot like an arrow to the bathroom. The scene, however, cannot be described due to the PG rating on this fanfiction. I can, however, go as far as telling that it was horrible.
When she finally got out of the bathroom, she felt like the world had given her lemons. Of course that would not be enough to make her back down. After all, Daring Do would never back down. Yes, she read Daring Do. No, not the ones with tentacles and chocolate pudding. Okay, maybe one or two copies of them but that was completely off the topic!
Where did Vinyl keep the painkillers anyways? Octavia certainly hoped it did not turn out they were in the bathroom, she would never want to go in there again. Maybe she kept them in the living room. After searching for a couple of minutes Octavia decided to check the bedroom.
Not very unexpectedly the pills laid on the night table next to Vinyl. With all the loud music she played every night it was understandable that she kept the painkillers close. She opened the box and chugged a pill. She then proceeded to the kitchen to get some water. With the headache finally calmed down to a dull throb, Octavia could focus her attention. What would be the next thing on her to do -list for this morning? An idea struck her mind.
Breakfast, that’s what she needed. First, however, she needed some relaxing music. Maybe she’d still kept the vinyl Octavia had bought for her a while back. Surprisingly enough, it laid on top of Vinyl’s collection. Did she actually listen to the vinyl? Octavia was surprised at this, none the less she put it on the recorder and started the song
With the serene notes of the song filling the room she could finally relax a little. Well at least there was a couple of seconds of serenity before the -as Vinyl would so delicately had put it- bass dropped. Suddenly the floor shook and the slowly disappearing headache reached its top again.
Of course Vinyl had remixed it, why would she not? Octavia should’ve guessed this. She was certainly too naive to live with Vinyl yet. She let out a sigh at that. Of course she would never live with Vinyl, after all why would Vinyl live with her?
As if Vinyl could read Octavia’s mind she popped into the room filled with energy. “So what’cha think? Awesome mix right?” She gave Octavia her best puppy look. Octavia was pretty sure her heart would melt if she stayed like that for just a second longer.
“It was good, maybe not exactly my type of wake up music, though.”
“Aww, you don’t like my music?” Vinyl pouted. “Well you seemed to like it yesterday. Damn filly, I haven’t seen someone dance like that in years.”
“I d-danced? What kind of dancing?”
“The dirty kind,” Vinyl said with a suggestive look. Octavia blushed harder than ever before. “I’m pretty sure you turned at least eighty percent of the fillies there gay yesterday.”
That was it; Octavia was going to explode from embarrassment. There was no way she could survive this. Or could she? Maybe it was finally time? Fold and lose it all, or go full in? Vinyl had certainly affected her a lot, because she went with the leap of faith. She steeled her nerves the best she could and put on a sly grin.
“So how about you Vinyl, feeling gay?” On the outside Octavia looked calm, but on the inside her heart was going to blow any minute now.
“Depends, do you want me to be gay?”
Dammit, of course Vinyl had to make it harder for Octavia. She should have known so by now. Octavia was running low on willpower. One more shot and she would be completely drained. Well, as she said earlier. All in. This was it. It would be her biggest mistake or the best thing she’d ever done. None the less she would never regret it.
“I would love to,” Octavia finally got the words out and moved closed the distance between them. She grabbed the white unicorn’s head and closed the final distance in her marathon. It was time to claim the award or cry trying.
Their muscles finally pressed together in what felt like fate colliding with a bigger impact than any of them could ever imagine. Time was not present, nobody else existed, only a white unicorn, a gray earth pony and the most glorious kiss in the history of ponies.
When they finally pulled apart, they panted hard. They had both been so lost in the kiss they had forgotten to breathe. They both looked at each other for several seconds, lost in bliss. Finally Vinyl decided to speak up.
“For you Octavia, I can be anything.”
Well this chapter certainly was a mess. Let's see who's the first to pick up on all the refrences! :D
I read the fic you referenced. I must find out the name.
EDIT: Daring Do and Rainbow Dash and the Trials of Temptation

1681881 Thanks :)
I was loling the entire time. Did it not occur to her to think,
"Hmm, I woke up in bed WITH Vynil..."
LOL. Ah, the things we don't do when we're hung over. Still, great chapter, I especially liked the end. And I didn't even know there were references until I saw the comments. Alas, I must read more fics.
Again, Great job.
1689057 We still have a couple of unspoken refrences :) Glad you liked the chapter! If you had seen me while writing it you would most likely had sent me to the nuthouse xD
I often find that true inspiration comes from insanity. When you loose it, you no longer care what other people think, or whether the bills are paid, or whatever. You have officially stripped life down to its basic parts, and you can use your thought processes for other more important things. Insanity is not to be shunned. Instead, insanity is brilliance in it's most basic form.
Anyways, listen to me ramble. I think I need to go huff more paint.
(proceeds out the door to garage, stays five minutes, comes back)
Who the F%&# are these people shouting in my head!?!?!
1689128 However sometimes you have to contain your madness to make sure the story is not just a big mess xD Oh, and don't worry about the voices. They're your friends :3
