No Day but today 3 Vinyl's Struggle part 1- Bonds of love - Cloplite

Two weeks later

“Do you know what P.A.W.S. is Miss Dash?” Asked Dr Hooves as he looked over the reports he had done on Vinyl over the past two weeks since Scratch had stopped using Heroin.

“Fuck yeah; I went through that myself; it took almost three years for me to stop having any kind of craving for meth... Oh my Celestia, Please Doc, please don’t tell me that’s what Vinyl’s body is doing to her!” Gasped Dash, trying not to cry out of fear for her closest friend, the kid who had saved her life just a short time ago.

Doctor Hooves looked solemnly at Dash “I’m afraid so, Vinyl Scratch has a serious case of Post acute withdrawal syndrome.” He put Vinyl’s chart back into its drawer. “She might not sur...” Began the Doctor before Dash had him by the throat.

“Don’t you dare fucking say she won’t survive, or I’ll kill you right now where you fucking stand!” She hissed, tightening her grip on the Doctor’s windpipe until Fluttershy held Dash’s wrist and forced her to let him go.

“Dashie, please calm down.” She whispered in Dash’s ear. “Dr. Hooves will do everything he can, and so shall we, I promise Dashie; She won’t go without a fight.” She then bent down to hold Dash as she had collapsed into a ball on the floor crying.

“Do you want me to give her a sedative?” Asked Dr. Hooves, looking at Dash with pity in his eyes. He knew it wasn’t easy to hear that a close friend might die, which was why he wasn’t planning on pressing charges for Dash’s outburst.

“No, I’ve been taking care of her for the last two years, I’m not going to let anybody else do so, sorry.” Replied Fluttershy as she and Nurse Redheart carried Dash back to Fluttershy’s car.

Two hours later.

“She looks like she’s resting peacefully.” Said A.J as she sat by Vinyl’s bed with the other elements of harmony, having come when Rarity had called her saying that Rainbow Dash needed them all.

“I should have known this would happen!” Snapped Twilight, beginning to cry. “I should have had her committed to someplace that could have helped her better then we can, if she dies.... It’s my entire fault.” She curled her wings around herself and began shaking with her sobs, Celestia rubbing her back as she had come with Twilight to help in case her lover decide as she had to blame herself.

“No Twilight, you couldn’t have known that Vinyl would come down with P.A.W.S, there was nothing any of us could have done.” Celestia cooed as she watched Rainbow Dash holding Vinyl’s hand, which if she survived would have her Cutie mark forever tattooed on it.

“We should let her sleep though; I mean she won’t be sleeping much like this until she’s through it.” Sighed Pinkie as she tied her long flat hair into a ponytail as she commonly did when she became depressed and her hair lost its poofiness.”

“Indeed, but one of us should at least stay with her in case she wakes up, I mean acute depression’s one of the effects of P.A.W.S and Celestia forbid that she should wake up and take her own life because we were undilligent.” Sighed Rarity as she stood and began to pace the room, each of them had taken at least one day off from work to be there for Rainbow and Vinyl and she was going to be damned if she saw their efforts to save this young girl fail just because they didn’t watch her closely enough.

Just then the door to Fluttershy’s and Rainbow’s spare bedroom opened up and Octavia marched in and went straight for Vinyl's bedside.

“What happened?” She asked as she kneeled down and looked at Vinyl’s thin body.

“P.A.W.S” Croaked Dash, voice hoarse from crying so much, and Octavia hugged her. “This will not be easy but we’ll save her Miss Dash, I promise.” She said as she stood Rainbow up and sat her down in one of the chairs.

“It’s P.A.W.S that killed Lyra, wasn’t it Octavia?” Asked Rarity, hands on the Cellist's shoulders as she too broke into silent sobs which meant she could only nod at Rarity’s question.

“It became too much for her and she committed suicide?” Continued Rarity to which Octavia also nodded.

“I can’t take this anymore.” Said Pinkie as she ran out of the room tears running down her face, as the element of laughter, she couldn’t take all this sadness anymore, the balloons that made up her cutie mark obviously dulled in color.

“I’ll talk to her.” Said Fluttershy as she followed Pinkie out of the room and closed the door behind her.

“I think it’s time for all of us to leave, Dash I’ll take the first suicide watch and keep you girls informed, go be with Fluttershy, I’ll be fine by myself.” Said Octavia as the other left the room; A.J dragging Dash out by her shirt when it looked as if she was going to argue.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
A couple of hours into Octavia’s watch she noticed that Vinyl began to stir and so she prepared to explain everything to her in case her memories were being affected by her condition. But as soon as Vinyl woke up she began to scream.

“Ahh what the fuck happened to me, and why the hell am I so cold, and by Celestia I need a fix!” She screamed and began to try and get up but Octavia pushed her back down.

“You are going through Post acute withdrawal syndrome, withdrawal makes you cold, and No, you do not need that stuff anymore Vinyl, it’s what got you into this in the first place; You want to become a D.J, You want to keep your promise to your father, then you’re going to have to fight this Vinyl and you’re going to win!”

“Octavia, is that you?” Asked Vinyl still trying to get up but failing against Octavia’s superior strength.

“I feel like I’ve been ran over by a fucking train.” Hissed Vinyl as Octavia finally won out and Vinyl laid her head back against the pillows.

“You have looked better.” smiled Octavia slightly.

“Ha-ha always the comedian.” She groaned as Octavia wiped her forehead with a wet washcloth. “Thanks Octi.”

“Octi? Well I always suppose from someone like you it could have been worse” Smiled Octavia a bit bemused at the sudden nickname but deciding not to say anything about it giving Vinyl’s condition. “So do you know what’s going to happen now?” She asked.

“Yeah, I saw Dash’s P.A.W.S.... This ought to be fun.” Sighed Vinyl as she remembered one particular time that Dash had managed to get ahold of a knife and had slit her wrists in an attempt to end her own life.

“Where am I anyway?”She continued as she looked around trying to see if maybe something in the room would jog her memory, but the room was quite plain; save for the bed that Vinyl was laying in there were a few chairs, a bedside table, and a closet but nothing else.

“You’re at Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash’s apartment, they brought you here after your first rehab session and since then they’ve been fighting to keep you off of the heroin; You’ve also been going to Dr. Hooves on a regular basis to make sure you body was healing in the proper way while it detoxed naturally, It was him who discovered you were still in withdrawal and therefore diagnosed you as having P.A.W.S.” Explained Octavia watching the panic grow in Vinyl’s eyes each second.

“Where’s all my stuff, damn it I already told her not to bring me here, I don’t want a fucking handout from people; I’ve taken care of myself for the last three years and that’s the way it’s going to stay!” She screamed now thrashing in the bed trying to break Octavia’s hold on her.

“You’re not going anywhere!” Snapped Octavia, slapping Vinyl acrossed the face. “Celestia damn it Scratch, do you have any idea how much everyone in the apartment right now cares about you, and you want to leave them to live in some dirty alleyway, to die, to leave everyone here to possibly follow you because they commit suicide in guilt from failing to try and save you, and damn it Vinyl Scratch, don’t ask me why because I don’t know myself, but I’m not letting you go because I fucking love you... There I said it... I love you.” Finished Octavia, beginning to cry.

“Octavia.... I... I love you too I guess, I don’t know why either, but when I’m with you I just feel better I guess, like I never had to do that shit in the first place, but still....” She trailed off fighting with herself emotionally between her want to stay safe for Octavia, Dash, and the others and her ingrained mistrust for others, and now one other feeling. Something she couldn’t explain, she’d only known this woman for two weeks and yet somehow the thought of her crying, of her in pain, it was painful for her to even think about it.

“Please stay.” Begged Octavia, looking pleadingly into Vinyl’s ruby eyes and kissing her. It was unexpected, not of her own choice, and yet it felt so right. Her lips against Vinyl’s as her shock also dissipated and she began returning to kiss also staring into Octavia’s eyes

I love the color of her eyes; they’re like beautiful lilac flowers, so deep. Thought Vinyl.

So much like the finest of beautiful rubies, that’s the color of her eyes, that’s one of the few things that set her apart from Lyra... I wonder how long this might last, if she’d let me. Thought Octavia as she slid her arms under Scratch’s blanket and found her scarred chest and put her hand against her heart. At this Scratch removed the blanket from between the two of them revealing her body. As they had taken all of Vinyl’s clothes off to keep her from overheating except for her underclothes which she now removed knowing what Octavia wanted.

“Ready for it to go this far?” Asked Vinyl as she loosened Octavia’s Tie and laid it on the bedside table.

“Passion between two consenting woman is just fine as long as they love each other.” Replied Octavia as she hung her silk shirt and slacks neatly on one of the chairs and wrapped under the covers with Vinyl.

Vinyl laid there basking in the afterglow of her and Octavia’s first time and watched Octavia’s chest rise and fall with her breathing.

“Well that was something.” Smiled Vinyl as she cuddled into Octavia’s body

“Something is my favorite.” Laughed Octavia, smiling at Vinyl’s lack of descriptive vocabulary to describe their first time.

“So, ready to tell the others.” Sighed Vinyl, trying to get up but failing as she was still weak from her condition.

“No reason to keep it from them I suppose, being they more than likely heard us moaning.” Replied Octavia getting to her feet and helping Vinyl to stand.

“Well whenever you’re ready.” Said Scratch as Octavia opened the door and they walked out into the sitting room
