Vinyl Scratch smiled. She had a couple of bits in his hoof and was entering the classical music store. Now usually she wouldn't wanna come here but it was for somepony special.
As she opened the door a bell rang which was hanging above the door.
"Hello?" Vinyl said and she saw the shop pony staring at her. "Are you lost?" The pony said cocking an eye.
"Nah Dude im getting a gift for my friend! Now wheres the best violin you have" Vinyl asked loudly.
The shop pony sighed and walked over to a cabinet at the far side of the room. It had a glass door so you could see inside of it. Probably for display...
The shop pony lifted a key and opened the lock. He opened the door slowly. "Here" he grunted.
Vinyl looked at the violin. It was perfect! "How much!" She asked excitedly.
"100 bits" the stallion replied.
Vinyl scratches smile turned to a frown. "100 BITS! I DONT HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY!" Vinyl shouted. The shop pony sighed.
"Its limited edition Ms" he closed the glass door. "Of course its going to be expensive"
"I'll kiss you!" Vinyl said. The pony gave her a glare.
"Is that supposed to be a prize?" The pony said using a cloth to wipe the glass door. "To me that would be disgusting with a mare like you"
Vinyl clenched her teeth. She wanted to punch that pony when he said that.
"Listen this is for somepony special so..." Vinyl couldn't find her words. "Just give it to me" Vinyl felt as if those words would help her out yet it just leaded to a glare by the shop pony.
"How much bits DO you have?" The shop pony asked going back behind the couner.
"Uh. 27 bits! Why?" Vinyl asked.
The shop pony sighed and pointed at an old and used violin with some strings broken. "That Ms is the only thing you can afford. Do you take it?" The shop pony asked.
"OF COURSE NOT! THATS NOT PERFECT ENOUGH!" Vinyl yelled her heart beating fast.
"Vinyl? Are you alright?"
Vinyls heart fell. She knew that voice...
"Octavia....hows it hanging?" Vinyl said slowly.
"I honestly didn't expect you to be here..." Octavia said. "Why are you here?"
Before Vinyl had a chance to answer the shop pony stepped in.
"Shes just sulking because she cant get that violin" the shop pony said. Making Vinyl glare.
"Oh..." Octavia was confused by why her friend had wanted something so hated upon in her personality. But then again she needed to help her out.
Vinyl was heartbroken. She was just sitting in the middle of the shop cuddled up. It had to be important.
Octavia mumbled something to the shop pony. Vinyl couldn't here what she was saying but was eager to find out. She looked up to see the shop pony opening up the cabinet doors once again. Octavia pulled out the violin and handed the shop pony some bits.
She then walked up to Vinyl patting him on the head. She passed him the violin.
"Here you go Vinyl. I honestly dont know why you wanted it but it was obviously important" Octavia said. "See you at home"
Octavia walked out the doors and Vinyl stood up and ran after her. Before she went though she turned to the shop pony. "You suck!" Vinyl yelled. The shop pony glaring at her Vinyl went back to run after Octavia.
Hearths Warming Eve was just one day away but Vinyl needed to tell Octavia why she needed the violin then and there. She just HAD to!
"Octavia" Vinyl yelled grabbing he pony infront of hers attention. "Wait!"
Octavia turned around to see Vinyl right behind her. Vinyl herself smiled at Octavia.
"I got you a Hearths Warming present!" Vinyl said.
"Isn't it a little early?" Octavia asked. "And it doesn't seem like you have anything"
Vinyl frowned. She used her magic to lift the violin on her back. "You see, this was going to be for-"
Octavia hugged Vinyl close.
"Aren't you mad? It was your money!" Vinyl asked.
Octavia smiled. "You tried so hard to get it for me though! And it might have been my money but it was your thought of mind" Octavia cuddled him closer.
Vinyl scratch hugged her back.
Octavia backed a bit away and gave Vinyl a little kiss. Vinyls cheeks shining red.
"And since you gave your present early..." Octavia lifted a small box from her saddlebag. "Heres mine"
Octavia smiled.
it was perfect and glamarous! It was a wub...
Honestly Octavia didn't care about it what so ever...she only cared about Vinyl and thats why she was getting it."Excuse me mister how much does this cost?" Octavia asked.
"Wow little lady what are you doing here?" The pony behind the counter replied.
"Huh?" Octavia questioned.
"Uh nothing....you want that wub?" The pony asked pointing at the wub.
"Is that really what everyponys calling them?" Octavia asked a bit dry.
"Yup" the pony replied. The stallion nodding.
Octavia sighed. "Well yes i want the....wub" She put down a couple bits on the table. 100 to be precise. The stallion looked at the bits. "This is not enough. The wub costs 250" The stallion pushed the money away.
"WHAT! I HAVE NO MORE BITS!" Octavia yelled. The stallion smiled. Octavia stared.
"I could leave that 100 alone and you can pay me differently?" The stallion smirked.
"What do you mean by differently?" Octavia asked.
The stallion leaned forward. "You know, some of that special love" The stallion whispered.
"Ew! No" Octavia pushed the stallion away.
She began walking out the door. "Wait! How about just a kiss?" The stallion called.
Octavia turned around. "Just, a kiss?"
"Yeah anything you say!" The stallion told.
Octavia thought for a minute.
Vinyl was so nice that she DESERVED this present! A small kiss WAS a small price to pay...
Octavia thought long and hard. The stallion sweating heavily.
She sighed and leaned in and kissed the stallion on the cheek. "Thats all!" The stallion grumbled.
"You didn't say what kind of kiss you wanted!" Octavia said teasingly. The stallion blushed.
"Okay you played that well! Here ya go!" The stallion levitated the wub over to octavia. "The limited edition mini wub" the stallion smiled. Octavia lifted a small box from her saddlebag placing the wub inside.
"Thanks..." Octavia said unaware if he did a nice act or not.
She then walked out the store and looked at the 100 bits she hadn't used. As she walked she saw the classical music store on her way.
"I still have a hundred bits...maybe i can use some of them here" Octavia thought.
She put the bits in her saddlebag and entered the store. To her suprise she saw Vinyl.
"OF COURSE NOT! THATS NOT PERFECT ENOUGH!" Vinyl yelled.
"Vinyl?" Octavia asked. "Are you alright?"
Vinyl fell to the floor cuddled up in a ball.
"Octavia....hows it hanging?" Vinyl asked.
"I honestly didn't expect you to be here Vinyl" Octavia paused. "Why are you here?"
The shop pony looked at Octavia. "Shes just sulking because she cant afford that violin"
Octavia looked at her friend, roomate and pal. She looked practically dead inside.
She walked up to the store pony and began whispering.
"Which violin did she want?" Octavia asked. The stallion pointed at the cabinet.
"I would like to make a purchase!" Octavia said.
"That'll be 100 bits" the stallion enquired. Octavia grabbed the bits from her saddlebag handing them over to the shop pony.
The stallion walked over and unlocked the cabinet opening it up. Octavia grabbed the instrumwnt and headed over to Vinyl.
"I dont know why you wanted this but it seems important to you" Octavia passed Vinyl the violin. "I'll see you at home"
She started walking out of the store and looked up at the midnight sky. As she passed many buildings she admired the stars.
"Octavia!" A voice came from behind her. "Wait!"
She turned to see Vinyl running. He caught up to her.
"I got your Hearths warming eve present!" Vinyl said.
"Isn't it a little early?" Octavia asked. "And you dont seem to have anything"
Vinyl levitated the violin over to Octavia. "This was auctully for-"
Octavia cuddled Vinyl close. She didn't know why she just felt like she needed too.
"Aren't you mad? It was your money!" Vinyl asked.
"It may have been my money but it was your thought" Octavia smiled. She backed away and gave Vinyl a little kiss on the cheek.
"Since you gave your present early" Octavi picked a box from her saddlebag up. Vinyl levitated it over opening it aswell.
It was a mini wub machine.
"These are limited edition! How'd you get your hooves on these?" Vinyl said.
"Um..." Octavia paused. "Maybe not now"
Vinyl smiled. She didn't need to know.
Octavia hugged vinyl close. "Thank you"
Vinyl hugged her back. "Thank you aswell"
