The Adventures of Steam Funk: Ch. 8
I stared at the pink mare in horror, my left eye twitching a bit. Her smile slowly faded away as she took on a look of worry.
"What's wrong?" She asked me. I looked at her with a gaping mouth.
"Didn't you like last night?" She asked. I had no idea what she was talking about, but I could take a pretty good guess given the clues: I'm in her room, in her bed, with her next to me, and I have sore abs and a hangover. I took a deep breath and calmed myself.
"W-what... did happen last night?" I asked her, not sure if I even wanted to know the answer. She looked at me with shock.
"Was it not special enough for you? Oh no, I new I should have done that one trick Berry Punch told me about!" She said dejectedly. I shook my head.
"No, Pinkie. That's not what I meant. I'm guessing I was just, drunk for all of it and I can't remember anything." I said. She started to calm down and smiled awkwardly.
"Well..." She said, trailing off.
"'Well' what?"
She shied away.
"We kinda... did it." I looked at her, not exactly surprised, but still a bit in disbelief. I shook my head.
"Like, we had sex?" I asked her in a eerily calm tone. She nodded slightly. I let out a long sigh.
"Well that sucks."
"What's wrong?" She asked me. I looked at her and frowned.
"I lost my virginity and I can't even remember it."
She gasped and put a hoof on my shoulder.
"I-I'm so sorry Steam. I didn't mean to. Oh, this is terrible. You probably hate me now." She said, sorrowfully. She stopped and sighed.
"Besides, you didn't even lose it to somepony you like."
I looked at her, a bit of sadness showing through the shock I was experiencing.
"Pinkie, don't beat yourself up. I don't even remember it, so to me, it didn't happen." I said, trying to reassure myself more than comfort her.
"How did it even happen? Like, how did it start?" I asked. She started trying to think and retell what went down last night.
"Well, after you drank that whole mug of hard cider, you joined in on my laughing fit. We were rolling on the floor together and eventually rolled right in front of each other. We stared into each others eyes for a long time, all the while slowly getting closer. We got just inches away from each other's faces and then we started to..." She trailed off. I looked at her in anticipation, now curious as to what happened.
"Kiss. We started to kiss. At first it was playful and we were just fooling around, but then it became more passionate. We started using tongue and we were pulling each other closer, until I broke us apart. I looked at you and smiled, asking, 'Do you want to take this to my room?'. We went upstairs and we got on my bed and I slowly and seductively lowered myself until my mouth was right in front of your-"
"Okay Pinkie! That's enough." I quickly said, snapping her out of her lustful memory. She frowned a bit when she came back to reality.
"I don't need to know all of the details." I said. We looked at each other, but then looked away, embarrassed.
"I think it would be best if we just forgot all about this." I said. Pinkie nodded.
"Yeah, it really shouldn't have even happened." She said.
"So what do we do now?" I asked. She blushed as I said the word "do".
"This isn't going to be a problem, is it?"
"Well, you may not remember it, but I sure do. It's gonna take a while for me to think of you the same way." She said. I shook my head.
"Alright, what are our plans for today?" I asked, wanting to change the topic.
"Well, I know you have plans with Vinyl for that date."
"Wait, wait, wait. How do you know about that? I never told you." I asked, cutting her off.
"I'm Pinkie Pie. I just know." She said simply.
"And yet you still had sex with me knowing I was going on a date with somepony else?"
She paused.
"Again, I'm Pinkie Pie."
I nodded, that being the most logical answer. She continued.
"So if we are going to do anything, then it's going to have to be before then." She said.
"So we don't really have plans for today?" I asked. She shook her head, but then stopped.
"Well actually, the Cutie Mark Crusaders are supposed to be stopping by to try and get their baking cutie marks." She said. I nodded my head and smiled.
"Well, that ought to be fun." I said sarcastically.
"Yeah, it should!" She said, completely oblivious. I shook my head and chuckled to myself. I got up and started to walk away, but I stopped and looked back at her.
"Hey Pinkie?"
"Yeah Steam?"
"Can you keep this as our dirty little secret?" I asked her. She smiled and nodded.
"Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye." She said enthusiastically, doing all of the motions. I nodded and left the room, going to my own.
"Man, I wonder what Dee-Jay's gonna think." I thought.
Two hours had passed and Pinkie Pie was downstairs helping the Cakes with baking, and taking the occasional "taste test". I walked down from my room with Dee-Jay on my back. I had asked him if he knew what happened last night. He just gave a simple nod and thankfully I didn't have to discuss it anymore. I walked up into the kitchen, where everypony was.
"Is there anything I can do to help?" I asked them.
"Oh no dear. We've got it under control." Mrs. Cake said.
"Ya sure? I can do anything you need. I can do heavy lifting or mix together ingredients." I offered. Mr. Cake stopped and looked at his wife.
"Actually, didn't you need to get ingredients from Zecora, Honeybun?" He asked. She nodded.
"As a matter of fact, I do. Do you know where Zecora's hut is Steam?" She asked me.
"I know it's in the Everfree Forest, but that's it."
"How about you stop over to the library and get a map from Twilight? She had loads of them!" Pinkie suggested. I nodded.
"Alright, I'll head to Zecora's and grab what you need." I said, making my way out of the bakery. I started to walk away when I heard somepony call my name from behind me. I turned around to see half of Pinkie hanging out a window.
"What are you doing?" I asked with an eyebrow raised.
"You didn't eat breakfast, so I snuck away a treat for you." She said, holding out a cupcake. I walked over to her and she hoofed it to me.
"Thanks, but why the window?" I asked her. She looked at the frame of the window, like she just realized she was there.
"Well I couldn't let the Cakes catch me. Now don't get lost in the Everfree. It's a scary place. Unless you see the faces of some of the trees. They're hilarious!" She said, cracking up a bit. I shook my head and continued on my way to the library.
"Thanks again Pinkie. And don't worry, I'll stay safe." I called back.
I arrived at the library a few minutes later and I walked in. I got my first good look at how big the tree really was now. It had two separate floors, not including the basement, and a few different rooms. And these rooms weren't just normal sized, they were big, each one being about ten feet tall and almost every wall covered with multiple shelves filled with books. It probably had at least six thousand books in the whole place.
"Hello?" I heard come from behind me. I jumped and turned around to see the purple baby dragon who lived there.
"Oh, jeez. Hey Spike. Ya startled me there." I said, my heart beating erratically.
"Sorry Steam. What are you doing here anyway?" He asked me.
"I was wondering if you had any maps I could borrow. I've got to get some ingredients from Zecora for the Cakes."
"Sure. Lemme go get those and I'll be back in a sec." He said and ran off into another room. I turned around and looked to see where he possibly could've been so that I wouldn't have noticed him when I walked in.
"Now how did he do tha-"
"Hey Steam."
"Holy shi-!" I yelled. I turned to now see Timid, a bit in shock from my sudden outburst.
"What the hell is with you people scaring me?" I asked. He smiled.
"Don't you mean 'ponies'?" He corrected me. I shook my head.
"You're a pain. You realize that right?"
He chuckled to himself.
"I only do it on purpose. What are you doing here anyway?" He asked me.
"I gotta pick up some things from Zecora for the Cakes and I need a map. So how's staying at Twilight's so far?" I asked him.
"It's alright. I'm sleeping in the spare room and I'm working here. She's giving some pay too, which is cool." He said.
"Definitely cool. I've got to find some work myself. I feel pretty useless just wandering around all day." I said.
"You know, Rarity came by here earlier to put up a flyer. Let me go get it." He said and walked over to a piece of paper tacked to the wall and pulled it off with his teeth. He walked back over and I grabbed it with my magic and took a look at it.
"Hmm... 'Wanted: Assistant needed for help around the shop, to run errands, and to complete any other task needed.' Pay's not bad either, for basically just doing chores. I guess I'll stop over there and check it out." I said. Being Rarity's assistant didn't sound too bad. I was use to doing chores and whatnot for others anyway.
"One question though. How come Spike hasn't applied?" I asked.
"Oh, he wanted to. Trust me. But Twilight wouldn't let him, for obviously reasons."
"Yeah, and I'm not too happy about it."
"Ah! What the flippin' hell, man!" I yelled, jumping yet again. Spike had returned behind me with a rolled up piece of paper.
"What do you people have against me? Huh? Is this like some evil plot to slowly drive me insane?" I exclaimed. Spike looked at Timid in confusion.
"What are 'people'?" He asked.
"It's just slang. Don't worry about it." He said, covering for me. I nodded in agreement.
"Well, you better not let Twilight catch you swearing. She doesn't like it." He warned.
"Speaking of which, where is she? I haven't seen her the whole time I've been here." I asked, looking around the library to see if I could spot her.
"She's out at Quills and Sofas getting more things for me to probably make some kind of ridiculously long checklist." He said. I laughed, but then an idea popped into my head.
"Hey Timid. Do you think you could come with me to Zecora's?" I asked him.
"Well, I have a break in a few minutes, so sure. Spike, if Twilight comes back before I do, can you let her know where I am?" Spike nodded as Timid and I started to walk out.
"Oh, and Spike?" I said, stopping before I left. He looked over at me.
"Don't worry, I'm not gonna take Rarity from ya." He smiled and nodded in thanks. I walked out, with Timid waiting for me.
"What did you tell him?" He asked.
"Nothin' ya need to worry about." I said, and began to walk towards the Everfree Forest.
"So is Equestria like ya thought it would be?" I asked Timid. He nodded.
"It's everything and much more!" He exclaimed.
We were just a few minutes away from the Everfree forest and Timid and I were engaged in friendly conversation.
"Hard to believe we're actually here, huh?" I asked.
"Yeah, and to be our OCs is awesome!"
I nodded in agreement.
"Speaking of which, have you done any flying?" I asked him.
Timid nodded and began running, until jumping into the air and taking off. He did a few laps around me until hovering and softly landing.
"Nice! You've definitely gotten good at it." I said.
"Well, what about your magic?" He asked me. I looked around and I saw a large rock to my left. I picked it up and spun it, flipping it in the air.
"And, Twilight also showed me a new spell too." I said. I set down the rock and concentrated. After a few seconds, my horn started to glow with a lime green light.
"Cool." He said.
"But that's not all. If I'm at a rave party, then I can do this." I said, and started quickly flashing my horn on and off like a strobe light. I accompanied the flashing, saying "OONTS OONTS OONTS", and I started bobing my head up and down. Timid laughed and I stopped, breathing heavily from all of the actions done at once.
"You know who rave parties remind me of?" He asked. I nodded.
"Vinyl Scratch." We said in unison.
"So have you gotten lucky with her yet?" He asked.
"Oh my God, dude."
"What? It's obvious she likes you and I already know you like her."
I looked at him.
"No, but I've got a date with her tonight." I said, looking guilty.
"What? You're not telling me something." He asked me. I looked at him and sighed.
"Alright, but you've got to promise not to tell anypony. Got it?" I asked him. He nodded and I proceeded.
"I had sex with Pinkie Pie last night."
His eyes shot open in shock.
"Nice!" He exclaimed.
"No, not nice. I lost my virginity to her and I don't even like her as anything more than a friend."
He stopped smiling and took on a serious aspect.
"I guess it wouldn't be funny if I said 'friend zoned'."
I gave him the evil eye.
"No it wouldn't. But I don't remember any of it, so I'm not going to count it." I said.
"Hey, no, no, no. It doesn't work like that." He objected.
"Well it does for me!" I yelled, filled with frustration. I took a deep breath, not wanting to let it get out.
"Look, I'm not to happy that it happened, so can we please just not talk about it?" I said. He nodded, looking at me strangely from my sudden outburst.
"So you and Octavia seemed to hit if off pretty well." I asked, changing the topic.
"Yeah, Octavia is as nice as I thought she'd be. Funny too." He answered. I smiled.
"Do you think she has a thing for you?" I asked him. It was obvious they liked each other, but didn't think he knew it.
"I don't know. She's way out of my league. She'd probably just friend zone me if I asked her out." He said. I remembered what Vinyl told me last night
(Wibbly wobbly flashback)
"We'll see if they can sort it out themselves first before we jump in."
(End of wibbly wobbly flashback)
"Alright Vinyl, I'll do as I'm told." I thought to myself.
"Well, you should at least try." I said, trying to encourage him.
"I-I don't know. I'll just give it some time and I'll take it from there." He said, unsure. I shook my head, wishing he would notice the obvious.
"Whatever. So are you ready to go into the Everfree Forest?" I asked him.
"I dunno. I guess I'm a bit nervous. Why?"
"'Cause we're here." I said, gesturing towards the dark, wooded area. He gulped hard.
"Well, here goes nothin'." I said and started to walk in. I got about twenty paces in when I noticed there weren't any hoofsteps following me. I looked back to see Timid, standing in the same spot.
"Oh, come on! I have to be back in time for my date with Vinyl. I don't have time to deal with these shenanigans." I said, sighing. He took a few uneasy steps towards me, but then backed off.
"I don't want to!" He yelled. I rolled my eyes.
"I will carry you on my back if I have to!" I shouted back.
According to the map, we were just a minute away from Zecora's hut after entering the Everfree Forest. Dee-Jay was riding on Timid's back while he rode on mine. Turns out I really did have to carry him.
"You know, with the way you act, I think you'd be a perfect match for Fluttershy." I said, mocking him. He grinned sheepishly as we rounded a corner. We looked and saw the Zebra's hut.
"Ever notice that a few of the houses here are trees?" I asked.
"Yeah. You've got Twilight's house, Fluttershy's, and now Zecora's." He said, agreeing with me.
"Oh, and one other thing. Can you get off me now?" I said in deadpan.
"Oh yeah, right." He said, climbing off my back and Dee-Jay hopping back into his original spot. We approached the door and I raised a hoof.
"Please, come in." An accented voice called out before I could knock. I looked at Timid and shrugged, pushing aside the door and entering the hut, Timid following behind me. I looked to see a zebra standing at a cauldron, bubbling with a green hue. She looked up and smiled.
"I've never seen you, you must be new. And I see you have brought a friend too." She said, rhyming like I expected.
"Hello, I'm Steam Funk and this is Timid Rhythm. We're new in town. I came to pick up an ingredient for the Cakes." I said. She nodded.
"Ah, yes. I have what you need. Please wait here while I fetch the seed." She walked over to a shelf on the far side of the room.
"What's you're name?" I asked her, not wanting to accidentally say it without her telling me and raising suspicion.
"You may call me Zecora. That's who you'll hear, call me more of." She said. I was hoping I to stump her by making her say her name, but I failed. She came back with a small satchel with a seed in it.
"This is Sundrop's Dew. You add it to treats, bringing forth flavor, anew." She said. "Okay, How is she coming up with these on the spot?" I thought to myself. I grabbed the bag with my magic and set it on my back next to Dee-Jay.
"So, young stallions of mine. Are you finding Ponyville to be quite fine?" She asked. Timid and I nodded our heads.
"Yeah, it's a very nice place." He said.
"I'm thinking about staying for awhile." I added. The zebra laughed.
"You like it that much? I had a feeling you would, just a hunch." I smiled and nodded.
"Alright, we've got to get back so I can be on time to my date." I said, turning and starting to walk towards the door.
"I hope your visit was quite fine. Please stop back anytime." She called to us. We walked out, Timid walking by himself now.
"I've gotta hoof it to her, she can rhyme like there's no tomorrow." I said, making sure to be accurate with changing the saying to equine standards.
"Yeah. I don't know if she chooses to do it, or like, it's hard wired into her brain." He said, agreeing with me.
"I still can't believe you're that scared to the point where you had to ride on my back."
"Well sorry that I'm not some big, burly stallion that isn't afraid of anything, like you." He said, sarcastically. We heard a howl off in the distance and we looked at each other.
"Um, you wanna get out of here? Like, now?" I asked him, nervously. He chuckled a bit and we sprinted off to try and get out of the forest a fast as possible.
We stopped at the edge of the forest after we had gotten out. We were gasping for air, like our lungs had never breathed before.
"I'm pretty sure that was a timber wolf that we heard." I said, trying to keep myself standing.
"I swore I saw glowing green eyes when we started to run." Timid said, letting out a breathy laugh.
"But we got out. That's the important thing." He added. I nodded and looked back to see Dee-Jay who was still on my back.
"You have the seed, right?" I asked him. He looked at me quizzically.
"Oh, you have got to be kidding me!" Timid yelled. I looked at him.
"Afraid not, but don't worry, I'll go in so you can stay out here if you want." I offered.
"No way! We're friends, and friends don't let each other go it alone."
"Jeez, you sound like you've lived here for your whole life." I said, rolling my eyes.
"Alright. If we're gonna do this, then let's get going. I've got a date to be back for." I added.
We gulped and slowly started to walk into the forest. We were looking left and right. Both to look for the seed, and to watch out for timber wolves. We were no more than thirty steps in, when we heard twigs snapping behind us. Our ears jerked backwards at the sound, a new ability that we had gained from becoming equine, jolting the rest of our bodies. We instantly took off, running and shouting. I turned my head around and saw a silhouette chasing after us. My heart quickened and I ran even faster. Timid turned to see what I was looking at, and nearly fell flat on his snout. He began flapping his wings to keep up with me, but an awry tree branch clipped one of them and he came crashing into me.
We tumbled onto the ground and wrecked into a rock. We sat their, our bodies aching and our minds blurred. The bushes to our left rustled and moved. I tried to get up, but my legs were limp from fear. We sat their, helpless, as we prepared ourselves for inevitable doom. Our eyes shot open as the silhouette that was chasing us stepped out from the bushes.
"This is it. I'm gonna die by the claws of a timber wolf." I thought. I closed my eyes and braced myself to be mauled mercilessly.
"Hello again, my friend. It seems that you were expecting the end." An accented, female voice said.
"Oh, you've got to be kidding me." I thought, opening my eyes to see the mohawked zebra. She smiled and chuckled. "Yeah, I was expecting the end. Why were you chasing us?" I asked her.
"I was not chasing you, I was only trying to help. You had dropped this, a motion that I'm guessing you had not felt." She said, holding up the satchel with the Sundrop's Dew. I breathed a sigh of relief as I grabbed the seed with my magic, yet again.
"And this time, I'm not lettin' go of ya, ya little bugger." I said to the seed.
"I can't thank you enough, Zecora. If there is anything I can ever do for ya, then just give me a holler." I said.
"There is no need. I just merely returned the seed." She said.
"Well, still. If you ever need any help, then don't be afraid to ask me."
"Not me though. I don't owe you anything." Timid said. I elbowed him and gave him a glare.
"Ow. Hey, I was just kidding." He said, rubbing his shoulder. Zecora laughed and nodded to us.
"Please take care and stay safe, and try to keep that seed in its place."
We waved goodbye as she walked back into the brush.
"Man, we are really behind schedule. We're going to need to haul flank to get back in time for your date." Timid said, looking at his watch.
"Well then come on!" I yelled and began running. Timid took off and started flying next to me and we raced back into town.
It was the middle of the afternoon and we had gotten to Sugar Cube Corner just a few minutes before I had to meet Vinyl.
"Alright, I'll see you later, yeah?" Timid asked me.
"Yep, see ya later!" I yelled and ran into the bakery. I went into the kitchen to find everypony doing the same thing as when I left them, except for Pinkie Pie, who was nowhere to be seen.
"I got that seed for you." I said, setting down the satchel on the counter. Mrs. Cake picked it up and put it in a cupboard next to countless other ingredients.
"Oh, thanks a bunch Steam. Here's a little something for your trouble." She said, hoofing me ten bits.
"Oh no, I can't take thi-"
"Nonsense. You worked hard and you earned it. And as I understand, you have a date tonight, so now you can treat." She said, cutting me off. I have her a quizzical look.
"Pinkie Pie told me." She answered. I nodded in understanding, mouthing the word, "Oh".
"Well, you don't have to..." I started to say, Mrs. Cake giving me the evil eye. "But thank you anyway." I said, her returning to a happy state.
"Now you better get going. Don't want to be late!" She said, and shooed me out the door.
"Thanks again!" I yelled to her. I stopped and looked at Dee-Jay, who was still on my back.
"Sorry bud, but you've gotta stay here."
He meowed in understanding and hopped off my back, walking into Sugar Cube Corner.
"We were made for each other." I said to myself, and I trotted off to Vinyl's.
I arrived at my date's house in the nick of time.
"Six o'clock, on the dot." I said.
"Jeez, now I'm starting to sound like Zecora." I added, and I walked up to the door. Before I could even knock, it opened, revealing the wonderful Miss Vinyl Scratch. She wasn't wearing anything fancy. As a matter of fact, she wasn't wearing anything different than she usually did, except she didn't have on her shades. All of this was fortunate for me, because I was the same, not that I even had anything fancy to wear.
"Why hello Steam." She greeted me.
"Why hello Miss Scratch." I returned, causing her to scowl.
"I told you no formalities."
"I know. That doesn't mean I still can't mess with you." I said, smugly. She rolled her eyes and stepped outside next to me, closing the door with her magic.
"Well then, off we go." I said and we started to walk, until a voice came from behind us.
"Oh, hey you two!" It called out. We turned to see Octavia.
"Hey Octy." Vinyl said.
"Off for your big date tonight?" She asked, looking over to me occasionally as if Vinyl had to be reminded who she was going with. She nodded.
"Well alright then, I'll leave you two be. Have fun!" She said, with a knowing look, and walked away. I raised an eyebrow to this, but I let it pass.
"Where are we eating?" Vinyl asked me. I turned to her and smiled.
"You know of a restaurant called 'The Trotingston'?" I asked, causing her to gasp.
"That's the fanciest restaurant in Ponyville!" I smiled even more as we walked along towards the restaurant.
"I don't think the ten bits from the Cakes is going to cover the tab." I thought to myself, but the ten bits combined with the left over bits from the Doctor should've been enough to pay the bill. Luckily, on our way to the Everfree Forest, Timid and I stopped at The Carousel Boutique and talked to Rarity. She gave me the job and I started next week, getting a pay of fifteen bits an hour, which considering one bit was worth about one dollar back on Earth, that was pretty good pay.
We walked, talking about general things, like what we were going to eat and how each other's day was, until we just, altogether, stopped talking. Walking the rest of the way in silence allowed me to prepare myself, because I was planning on asking Vinyl out.
"Alright, we'll eat dinner, and if everything goes good, then I'll ask her out." I thought, trying to psyche myself up.
"Hey Steam!" I heard a voice call from behind me.
"Oh, who is it now?" I asked, turning to see Vinyl.
"You do realize that The Trotingston is this way, right?" She asked. I mentally facehoofed.
"Yeah, I knew that. I was just checking to see if you were paying attention." I yelled back.
"Yeah, mm-hmm. I don't think I'm the one who isn't paying attention." She said, shaking her head and laughing. I walked back and made the right turn that I should have before.
Right down the street was The Trotingston. It was a very fancy restaurant with an Italian theme. Columns were supporting the overhanging roof in front of the building and a big statute of a moustached pony with a chef's hat was in front of it. Vinyl saw me looking at it and spoke up.
"That's Guido Trotingston. The owner of the restaurant and the head chef." She said. I looked at her.
"How do you know that?" I asked her, making her shrug.
"We use to date." She responded.
"Really? Are you comfortable coming here?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. It's not a problem." She said. I eyed her, making sure she was alright with the situation
. "Okay. If you say so. But if you want to leave at any time, just say the word." I said as we proceeded to walk inside. We were greeted with fancy dressed stallions in tuxedos and their manes were greased to look neat and professional.
"I sure hope the food isn't as greasy as their manes." I whispered to Vinyl. She chuckled and followed the waiter who took us to our table. We sat down and looked at the menus.
"I'll order something inexpensive so you don't go bankrupt." She said.
"Oh please, Vinyl. Order anything you want. I can handle it." I said, now doubting myself as I looked at the prices. Just then, a loud racket was heard as the doors from the kitchen slammed open. Over marched a moustached pony with a chef's hat... just like the statue outside. He stopped right in front of our table and glared at Vinyl, paying no attention to me.
"Well look who it is-a. Miss Vinyl Scratch." He said in a Italian accent. Vinyl sighed.
"Hello Guido." She said, not looking up from her menu.
"So, you think you are-a so cute-a? Hmm? Just-a come waltzing in-a here, after you left me like you did-a." He said.
"Look Guido, I already told you. You got drunk and ended up hanging out with some other mare, so I left." She responded simply. Guido's face lit up in a fit of rage.
"I did not-a!" He protested. He looked over and noticed me for the first time since he came over to have his hissy fit.
"You-a go and get yourself a new one when you're done-a with the last. Is that it?" He asked her, staring at me.
"Don't even, you lousy sonofa-" I stopped her, putting a hoof on her shoulder. I shook my head and looked back at Guido.
"Let her speak-a!" He yelled at me. I slowly furrowed my eyebrows and started to frown. I took my hoof off of Vinyl and slowly started to stand up, gaining inches by the second. Soon enough, I was fully standing and I was a half a head higher than Guido. I looked down at him, causing him to stagger back a bit in surprise at my size.
"I don't want to make a scene. We just came here for dinner and that's all we want. I suggest you leave and let us continue on with our evening." I said in a low and calm tone. He faltered for a second, but regained his composure.
"You better leave her before she ruins your dignity."
"Are you just about finished?" I asked him. He stood there, silent. I nodded and started to sit back down, but he regained my attention.
"Because she's a slut-a!" He said. I stopped, not looking at him and I heard a small gasp from Vinyl. I slowly started to stand back up until I was a half head taller than him again.
"What... did you just call her?" I asked him, just above a whisper. He swallowed hard.
"I said-a, she's... a sl-" I didn't let him finish. I hauled off and punched him square in the snout. He fell over backwards as blood started to trickle out from his nostrils. He rose a hoof up to his nose and pulled it away, wincing at the pain from touching it.
"You broke my nose-a. You broke my nose-a!" He yelled at me, gaining some attention from some other diners.
"Yeah? Well you're lucky I didn't do worse!" I yelled back, furious.
"I could have stripped the flesh from your bones and I could have chained you to a board as I slowly, and painfully cut off your ears and ripped your tongue out!" I shouted, feeling hatred and a wave of extreme rage flash through me. I gripped him with my unicorn magic an started to pick him up, as if I were gripping him by the neck.
"I could have ended your pathetic life or I could have made it a living hell." I said, my eyes glowing white. I started to choke him, making him gasp for air.
"Yes, squirm you insignificant pest." I started to smile, feeling pleasure in watching his life slowly slip away, until I felt a hoof on my shoulder. I turned my head to see Vinyl, crying.
I let my smile droop as the rage and pleasure inside me was replaced with sorrow. My grip relaxed on Guido and he fell to the floor, coughing and gasping for air. My eyes changed back to their original blue, showing tears of my own.
"Oh, Vinyl. I'm so sorry." I apologized. I looked around to see everypony now looking at me, all of them speechless. I felt overwhelmed and I took off sprinting, running out the door. No one stopped me, they just watched as I ran by, as the monster ran by.
"Oh no. I've let it get out." I thought, running to a park bench down the street. I sat down, tears streaming from my eyes.
"Now she'll never want to talk to me and I've made everypony afraid of me. But worst of all, I couldn't control myself. I thought I had gotten past this." I said aloud, sniffling. I heard hoofsteps approaching me.
"Great, now this is the police to take me away." I thought.
"Hey, are you alright?" The pony in front of me asked. I looked up to see Vinyl. I put on a fake smile.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I almost just strangled somepony, I ruined our date, and I'm now a public threat. Couldn't be better." I said sarcastically, wiping away my tears. She sat down next to me.
"What was that?" She asked. I sighed and sniffed.
"I don't get angry." I said.
"I don't follow."
"Like, seriously. I never get mad. It's a bad thing when I do, as you just saw." I said. She sat in silence, so I continued. "But when I do get angry, I go in an outburst and I get extremely aggressive, and I usually end up hurting others around me. I don't know why I do it, but it's something mental. I thought I had learned to control it, but I guess not. It's just, when he called you... that name, it just set me off." I said, reliving the past five minutes in my head, starting to make me angry again. I started breathing heavily and clenched my teeth. I realized what I was doing and stopped, slowing my breathing and trying to relax.
"Then why did you stop in there? You could have easily killed him. So why didn't you?" She asked. I looked her straight in the eyes and smiled softly.
"You." I responded in a gentle tone.
She sat speechless, looking a bit surprised. She continued to stare, until she launched herself at me and hugged me tightly, holding me for a long period.
"You're definitely one of a kind. Extremely aggressive when angry, and a complete sweetheart the rest of the time." She said, sitting back up.
Neither one of us spoke. We just sat there, looking at each other in silence that lasted for several minutes. I noticed we were getting closer, still lost in each other's gaze. We were only inches apart, our lips stretching to meet, until they locked into a glorious kiss like the one yesterday. Except this one lasted longer, much longer.
We sat there, kissing, breaking away, and then kissing again. Each time getting more and more intimate, until we were lying on the bench, Vinyl on top of me. I started to stiffen and realized what was going to happen if we continued, but Vinyl realized my hardening member too. She broke apart and pushed herself up so she was still on me, but able to see me fully.
"How 'bout you walk me home?" She said in a seductive tone. I nodded, speechless and a bit dazed. She got off me and I got up, and the two of us began to walk back to her place.
We got back, both of us laughing at the incident back at The Trotingston.
"When you punched him in the nose, that was priceless!" Vinyl said, laughing. I smiled slightly, the fact that I almost murdered a pony was weighing down my spirits. She stopped and gave me a soft look.
"Come on Steam. Cheer up. At least you didn't actually kill him." She said, trying to cheer me up. I shrugged.
"I guess."
I looked up and saw we were at her house.
"Well, here we are. Sorry I ruined our date." I said, but she shook her head.
"Oh, but the night is still young."
She unlocked the door and led me inside. I followed her down a hallway and into a room. I looked around. There was a bed with an clock on a stand next to it. A dresser was on the other side of the room and it had a small radio on it. I could guess this was her room. I felt my hat being lifted off my head and I looked up to see it levitating above me, enveloped in a light blue aura. It then flew over and landed on top of Vinyl's head.
"How do I look?" She asked, playfully.
"Good. Now please give it back." I said, me being very touchy when it comes to my hat.
"Fine, spoil sport." She said, and tossed it onto the bed. I walked over and picked it up, putting it back on my head, until I was tackled from behind. I flew onto the bed and had Vinyl lying on top of me.
"What are you doing?" I asked, a bit panicked by the sudden position we were in.
"We're gonna have a little fun." She said. She got up and turned on the radio and it started to play techno music. I looked at her in confusion. She walked back over and laid down on top of me again, making me go stiff, mostly in my nether region. She used her magic to take off my hat, headphones, and goggles, laying them down off to the side of the room.
"Have you ever done this before?" She asked. I wasn't sure what she meant, but I could take a good guess.
"Yeah, but I don't remember any of it."
She looked at me, raising an eyebrow.
"I'll tell you later." I said, making her smile.
"Well then let me take the lead and show you how it's done." She said and started to rub herself up against me, sending chills all along my body.
She came down and started kissing me again. Her tongue pushed past my lips and inside of my mouth and she began licking. It surprised me and I jumped for a second, feeling her tongue slithering around, but I wasn't going to back down. I pushed back with my tongue, sending her's back into her mouth, and I did the same as she did to me, making her gasp a bit through her nose.
We continued to wrestle back and forth, most of the action taking place in her mouth, but I let her in mine every once in a while, making sure she had fun too. We broke apart, both of us breathing heavily.
"Woah." I said, a bit light headed. My member hardened and pressed against her. I felt her wet juices drip onto me and I started to slowly move myself up to her slit, but she stopped me.
"No, not yet." She said, and slid herself down my body, positioning her mouth right above my cock. I felt her hot breath flow over my member as she swirled her tongue around the tip of the head, sending more shivers through my body. She continued to take in more and more of my stallionhood, and soon enough, my entire shaft was in her mouth.
I had to be impressed by this, until she started bobbing her head up and down.
"Oh sweet mother of Celestia!" I yelled. I never would have guessed it would feel this good. All the while, the techno music got more intense. Her head picked up speed and she began swirling her tongue again at the same time. The sensation was incredible, but it didn't last long.
"Ah! Vinyl, I-I'm gonna-a..." I said, but I wasn't fast enough, and I ended up orgasming in her mouth. She kept her mouth over my shaft until I released all of my seed. She pulled away and swallowed, smiling after the hot load traveled down her throat. She licked her lips and rubbed her body up against mine, sliding back up to my mouth.
"Oh, that was so hot." I said. She leaned down and kissed me again. I could taste a hint of saltyness, which I guessed was my cum. I cringed at the thought of my own seed being in my mouth, but I tried not to think about it. She pulled away again and smiled.
"Now it's time for the fun part." She said and positioned herself over top of my member.
"This is it. It's finally gonna happen." I thought, my heart pounding as excitement ran like a hormone through my body. She slowly lowered her marehood down onto the tip of my shaft. A jolt was sent through my body as she did this. After messaging the head of my member, she dropped herself down onto it, engulfing it completely.
"Holy sweet mother!" I yelled in shock and pleasure at the sudden movement. I heard a small whimper from Vinyl. I looked at her with worry.
"Are you okay?" I asked her. She nodded.
"Yeah, it's just been a little while since I've done this. I'm all good now." She said and lifted herself back up and came back down again. She continued to go faster and faster, making the amount of pleasure emanating from my stallionhood too great. I began to buck my hips up and down in opposite movement as Vinyl. Our nether regions slapped together in a loud fapping noise. The feeling was amazing! Sex was arguably the best thing ever.
I opened my eyes and looked at Vinyl. She was completely out of it, lost in her own world of ecsasty and lust. I just realized it, but she was in perfect rhythm with the music, her hips swaying a bit in addition to the up and down motions. This all lead to her screaming and orgasming all over me.
"Aaahh!"
She fell onto me, exhausted and panting.
"That... was great." She said, out of breath.
"Hold on. You did all the work. Now it's time for me to return the favor." I said and I got on my knees and Vinyl rolled onto her stomach. I aligned my member with the hot, dripping slit and I plunged myself in. She gasped and I stopped.
"Are you okay?" I asked her. She looked back at me with an annoyed look.
"You're being too cautious. I'm fine, keep going."
I nodded and began thrusting. I heard the music behind me and I matched the rhythm, bucking my hips in perfect rhythm. The combination of listening to the exhilarating music and having sex mixed together in perfect harmony, made the best experience ever. Not before too long, the feeling was becoming too great.
"Vinyl, I'm gonna cum!" I yelled.
"Me too!" She yelled back. Both of us were moaning at the orgasmic state we were in, until we released ourselves at the same time, just as the song ended in an epic explosion.
"Best... orgasm... ever." She said, out of breath. I nodded, gasping for air. We lied next to each other, hugging and sharing each other's body heat. Hormones filled the air, almost making it pungent.
"So...*whew* does this mean we're dating now?" I asked her. She looked at me and kissed me.
"Yes... it does." She said.
I smiled as she nuzzled into me and began drifting off into sleep. I placed my hoof over her and rested my head on her's. The last thing I remember was hearing the soft breathing of Vinyl as she and I drifted off into sleep.
