Two Strings Attached

Chapter 4

You were standing proudly in the middle of the entire Apple family as they cheered on towards your victory. Fiddlesticks was besides you still hugging you in your victory against her dad. After a few more hours of partying, eating, and one more glass of the Bloody Mare, you finally deserve some rest. Luna's moon had risen, and you were resting on your favorite spot on the farm, a hill with a great view of the orchards. Fiddlesticks was rested on your lap, almost as if she was sleeping on your lap. You were resting yourself against an apple tree that you picked, planted, and named on top of the hill, Bukington. Your night with Fiddlesticks was perfect.

"Hey Fiddlesticks."

"Hmm?"

"I was wondering, when you played you fiddle this morning, I noticed that I saw what looked like carving on your violin. Care to explain?"

"Well, I took your idea of giving my fiddle a name, so I did and I carved it on my fiddle. Thanks by the way." She smiles and gives a peck on your lips.

"Your welcome, what's his or her's name?"

"Well it's a she, I named her Pluck."

"Pluck, hmm... nice name, why'd you give her that name?"

"Because I always love to pluck her strings before I play her."

"It's a nice name, good job."

"Thanks"

The two of you wanted to get some sleep, but not on some tree, a nice and comfy bed. The two of you exit your favorite spot and walk through the zap apple orchards. As the two of you were walking through the orchards, you see a tiny flash coming from one of the tree. Is that fire? You and Fiddlesticks walk over to the nearby tree, and find that an object was laying on the ground near the tree.

"What is that?" Fiddlesticks asked

"Hey that's-"

-------------------

The next morning came, it was probably going to be the worst morning of your life, it was the day Fiddlesticks was going home. You find Fiddlesticks packing up her wagon along with her family. You wanted to say your final goodbyes to her as you two wouldn't see each other for a long time. You walk towards Fiddlesticks, she had tears in her eyes, as she sees you, she hugs and a bawls allover your shoulder. You hug her back to comfort her, you start to tear up a little, you were going to miss her. The two of you break your hug of depression, you look her in the eyes.

"Guess this is goodbye." you said

"Yep."

"Don't worry, you'll see me again, I know it."

"I hope I will." Fiddlesticks pulls out a necklace, it was made with yarn and it's pendant was a small wooden carving of a bass clef. "Promise me that when I see you again, you'll give this back."

You take the necklace from her hands and immediately wear it. "I promise."

Fiddlesticks' father walks by both of you, he places a hand on Fiddlesticks' shoulder. "Cmon honey, It's time to go home. It's time to say your goodbyes, Babs and mother are waiting." Her father then walks over to the wagon to be ready for departure.

The two of you held each other close, you looked each other closely in the eyes. Fiddlesticks leans forward and kisses you on the lips. You return the kiss as you pull her in for a more passionate kiss. She breaks up the kiss, and slowly walks towards her wagon and sits inside the tent wagon. As her father starts to pull the wagon, she becomes smaller and smaller until she was gone. You couldn't help but hold on to the base clef necklace you received, there wasn't anything to do left but to play the waiting game. Granny Smith walks over to you and places a hand over your shoulder.

"It's okay deary, You'll see her again soon enough." She said as she starts to walk away, but you forgot to do something, you place a hand on her shoulder to stop her. She turns to you with an eyebrow raised. "Yes deary?" You reach into your pocket and pull out a golden pocket watch, you place it on Granny Smith's hand. Her eyes widened as you return her pocket watch. "Thank you deary, I'll reward you one day, you'll see." She said as she walked back towards the farm house. You also wanted to go back to the farm house, but before that you wanted to go for one more ride, at the barn. You walk towards the barn, there you find the same barrel of Bloody Mare labeled on it. You walk up to the barrel, you knock on the barrel.

Empty

You wanted to try just one more shot of the Bloody Mare to ease just a little of the pain, not too much at the very least. You turn around to leave but you stop to find Applejack standing at the entrance of the barn, she had a shot full of a bright red drink, The Bloody Mare. "AJ, is that bloody mare?"

"Wah yes, you want it?"

"Sure, but obviously there's a catch, so whachu want?"

"Well all ah want, is a kiss." Your eyes widen and shrink at AJ, wager. You think long and hard, you just stood there , another stale mate, one that would change your life forever. After a few minutes, you came up with a simple answer.

"No" you say in a flat tone.

"What was that sugarcutie?"

"No"

"Good answer." AJ walks over to you, she hands the drink to you, you politely take it, AJ does nothing, no kissing, no personal touches, no nothing. But as you held the drink in hand, you couldn't help but think about Fiddlesticks. "Well whats taking you so long sugar cube? The drink is yours."

You softly chuckle to yourself as AJ raised an eyebrow, you slowly pour down the Bloody Mare to the floor contaminating it and making it undrinkable. AJ couldn't help but give a shocking reaction to your choice. "I just figured I don't need it. Alcohol won't ease my pain, but the only thing that will, is myself. Thanks for making me realize that AJ."

"No problem sugar cube." AJ said as she walked away.

Now was the time, to wait.

Ehhhhh... The concept is great, really it is.... But I think you may want to have spent more time on it and maybe even make it longer. Development is key when it comes to second person stories, especially romance ones. I honestly hope you think of re-writing it in the near future
