Chapter Five

The next two days were mostly spent with both Vinyl and Sonic Wave trying to sync their instruments, the mare trying her best to resist the stallion's unintentional skill. It started out sounding decent, but the more they tried to sync… The better it became, and the two of them becoming ten times more confident about their upcoming gig in Manehatten. During their practice, that lasted until the evening before, the two couldn't help but smile at the other.

Once they finished, Vinyl draped herself over the mixing set, physically drained. "Whoa… That was unbelievable." She said, breathing heavily, while trying her best to stand back up but found herself unable to do so.

Sonic Wave, also out of breath, leaned against the set, right under Vinyl. "You can… Say that again, beautiful." He agreed, allowing his instrument to hang, loosely, over his lap. "I wonder if we'll be able to do something like that again."

"I hope so… That was pic!" She giggled, ignoring the stallion's flirting, while she looked down at him. "Hey, wanna go get something to eat, after we rested a bit?"

He gave a nod, smirking a bit. "I could go for something to eat, sure." The stallion chuckled a bit, looking up at the mare. Vinyl's electric blue mane was hanging down, as she looked at him. "Looks like we'll be having an official date, as a couple, then."

Vinyl suddenly blushed, just now remembering that was his cover up, and gave a playful smile. "Oh? And where might you be taking your marefriend for dinner?" She asked, in a teasing manner.

"That depends… I don't have any money nor do I know what is around us." Sonic Wave noted, grinning up at her while Vinyl blushed again, completely forgetting that part too. The stallion didn't have a job, so there was no way he could earn bits for a date, nor did he know his way around Ponyville. So, he wouldn't know where to actually go.

"Where could we go?" She thought, trying to think of something they could do right now. In all honesty, Vinyl didn't have many bits either, with bills and tickets to Manehatten being counted in. "We'll have to go somewhere cheap, and not spend much-..." An idea suddenly came to mind, making the mare smirk before looking back at Sonic Wave. "I know of the perfect place. Mind waiting in the living room, while I go get ready?"

Sonic wave nodded, levitating his instrument in a nearby stand. "Sure, but don't take too long. Doubt they'll enjoy a late night romance." He went to leave, but stopped when the mare coughed, and looked back at her.

"U-Uh… Mind giving me a hoof? Heh." Vinyl blushed, trying to get up but her body was still worn out. "Guess I am still a little tired from our awesome jam out." The stallion smirked, before he moved behind Vinyl, and actually slid her down his spine instead of just levitating her. Her face turned cherry red, the moment he went between her back legs, and allowed her to slide down his broad back… The unicorn stallion's silver mane gently caressing her underside all the way, as she went. "Y-Y-You could h-have j-just used your i-instrument t-to energize me, o-or something." Despite feeling rather embarrassed, at the feeling she got, Vinyl wrapped her hooves around his broad neck.

"Well, what kind of coltfriend would I be, if I took such a short cut… Instead of carrying my tired marefriend, like I should?" He asked her, Vinyl trying to hide her face into Sonic Wave's mane, shrugging. "That's what I thought." With that, the stallion took Vinyl to her room, before going to wait for the mare I the apartment's living room.

-Ponyville Streets, Thirty Minutes Later-

Vinyl couldn't help but laugh out loud, at the joke Sonic Wave just told her! "O-Oh Celestia, really? That seriously happened?" She asked him, not caring how many strange looks the two were getting.

The stallion gave a nod. "I kid you not. The Servitor was so clueless, as to what was going on around it, that the darn thing ran square into a pipe! It flailed around, on its back, going." Sonic Wave cleared his throat, before doing his best to sound like a machine. "ERROR. ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE. DOES NOT COMPUTE. ERROR. ERROR." Of course, this was after he had explained what a Servitor was to Vinyl.

The mare laughed again, using her magic to pull up the trademark sunglasses, so she could wipe a tear away from her eyes. "Those 'Servitor' guys sound like a bunch of clueless dolts! I'm surprised they could possibly get anything done."

"If it is outside of their programming, they won't know what to do with it. But if they are programmed to handle something?" Sonic Wave gave a quick chuckle. "Nothing else could possibly match their efficiency."

Vinyl smiled, before suddenly leaning against the stallion while they walked down the dirt street. "Sounds like you lead an exciting life, Sonic." She said, simply leaning her head against his neck.

Sonic Wave, smiling at her action, noticed the shocked looks on anypony that saw her do it. A particular pegasus stallion, he had no idea who but he was wearing a 'DJ PON-3 #1' T-Shirt, nearly had his jaw hit the dirt. All Sonic Wave did, to prove his place, was give him a taunting smirk before turning his attention back to Vinyl. "So, where exactly are we going, Vinyl?" He asked, noticing more eyes on them, and figured this was the perfect chance to solidify his cover. "I wouldn't mind seeing where my marefriend likes to hang out, between gigs."

Vinyl looked up at him, catching on what the stallion was doing. "The best spot in Ponyville, I've been dying to show you, when you finally visited!" She quickly pecked him on the cheek, getting a surprised look from him, and gasps from everypony else. "One of my oldest friends, since I've been in Ponyville, both lives and works there."

"A friend, huh?" He asked, quickly shaking the surprise off. "Well, any friend of yours, is a friend of mine, Vinyl." Sonic Wave got his revenge, by placing a kiss on top of the mare's head, just behind her horn! This caused more gasps, a few stallions actually fainting, while Vinyl's face turned cherry red again… The act sending a pleasuring chill down her spine.

For some reason, him actually doing that had nearly made Vinyl melt. Giving her a tipsy look, eyes crossed for a few seconds.

Before she could trip over her own hooves, Sonic Wave quickly braced the mare. "Whoa, now!" He laughed, Vinyl snapping out of her drunken haze. "Think you can actually make it to this hotspot of yours?" The stallion teased.

She shook her head, getting rid of the daze for good, before playfully shoving him. "You just had to do that, didn't you!" Vinyl giggled, as the two of them continued down the street.

"Yep!" He chirped, adding his laugh to hers. "So, how much further until we reach our destination?"

Vinyl looked around for a moment, before spotting the place she was looking for. "Not far, ally! It's right over there." She pointed a hoof towards a pastry based building, which made Sonic Wave raise an intrigued eyebrow. "Sugar Cube Corner! Number One place for anything sweet!"

Sonic Wave kept a raised brow, before shrugging his shoulders. "With the way it's designed, I wouldn't expect any less." He smiled down at her. "Shall we go find us a seat?"
Vinyl nodded, smiling up at him. "Lets!"

The two unicorns made their way up to the door, Sonic Wave using his magic to open the door, the bell ringing due to this. "Ladies first." He smirked, Vinyl walking past him with her own smile, but used her tail to slide under the stallion's chin in a teasing, and seductive, manner.

Though, the two of them didn't get a hoof into the door, before a pink earth pony mare appeared right in front of them! She had the biggest grin on her face. "Welcome to Sugar Cube Corner! Home of the Sweetest Treats in all of Equestia!-… Oh, hey Vinyl." The mare said, slightly calming down. "What brings you to Sugar Cube Corner?"

Vinyl smiled at the hyperactive mare's question. "Hey, Pinkie! Just on a date with my coltfriend, figured I would cash in on the favor you promised me, for DJing your sister's party."

Coltfriend?" Pinkie asked, with a raised brow, as Sonic Wave stepped more into the bakery, so she could see him. "Good evening, I am Sonic Wave-?" The stallion barely got his name out, before the hyperactive mare let out a loud gasp!
"Hey, I've never seen you before! You must be new to Ponyville!" The mare started bouncing all around them, her words combing into one. "Hi-I'm-Pinkie-Pie-I-know-you're-new-because-I-know-everypony-in-Ponyville! I-can't-wait-to-throw-you-a-party!"

Vinyl leaned up, so she could whisper to him. "Did you catch any of that, Sonic?"

The stallion smirked, before whispering back. "Every word, she wants to throw me a party." Vinyl smirked, as Sonic Wave looked to the party pony. "I can't way, Pinkie Pie. Though, I would like to enjoy my date with Vinyl tonight, before our gig tomorrow, first."

"A date!?" Pinkie gasped, smiling, before Sonic Wave caught the flash of some strange look in her eye. "Why didn't you say so, Vinyl!" Without warning, the party pony suddenly picked the two of them up and sate the unicorns at a table. To the stallion's surprise, in a split second, Pinkie had arranged their table to match a romantic dinner date theme and pulled out a notebook, with a pen. "What would you two like to eat?" She said, in a Prench accent.

Both Vinyl and Sonic Wave picked up their menus, smiling at each other. "I'll just have the chocolate milkshake, with extra sprinkles." The mare said, putting her menu down.

"That sounds pretty good." Sonic Wave agreed, placing his on top of Vinyl's. "I will have the same thing, if you do not mind."

"Okie dokie lokie!" Pinkie chirped, writing down their orders and collecting their menus. "I'll have your orders out in no time!" She shot off, causing the two unicorns to laugh.

"She's a lively one." Sonic Wave commented, smiling at Vinyl.

The mare tried to stifle her laughter. "You don't know the half of it, Sonic." She smiled up at him. "Got to admit, I could get used to this… Glad I agreed to it." The mare leaned closer, Sonic Wave copying her movement.

"And I am also glad you accepted rather quickly." He smirked, the two of them moving a bit closer. "I have to say, from what I saw on our way here, I am one lucky stallion." They got even closer.

"I'd say I'm probably one lucky mare, right now." The two were only an inch from each other, both smiling. "Thinking what I'm thinking, big boy? To solidify your cover?"

"I don't see it as a cover, anymore." He replied, is covered eyes locked on to Vinyl's own. "And yes, along with many other things."

"You behave, in Manehatten, and those ideas may become real." Vinyl, not waiting any longer, closed the gap between them and pressed her lips against his!

The mare let out a pleasure filled moan, as the two of them kissed. A state of pure bliss washed over the two of them, completely forgetting where they were. It was lie their souls were finally able to touch one another, as if the barrier keeping the two apart had finally been broken by such a meager action! All that matter, to the unicorns, was just the two of them… Like Equestria only consisted of Vinyl and Sonic Wave.

Reluctantly, they pulled away from one another to breathe, Vinyl letting out a pleading whimper. Sonic Wave grinned at her. "Heh, want to go again? But, with a bit more… Passion?" He asked.

"No need to ask, c'mere, big boy!" Vinyl said, in a sultry voice, before the two of them started to kiss once again! The only difference, this time, was that they actually opened their mouths and allowed their tongues to enter the other's mouth. They slowly shifted their lips, allowing their tongues to wrap around each other.

During this, the unicorns were so caught up in their little make-out session, they didn't hear the doorbell ring and five mares walking in. Both of their eyes went wide, the moment those five mares suddenly shouted. "Vinyl!?" The mare instantly recognized their voices.

"Oh crap, we're so bucked…" She thought.
