Tonight's The Night (a random candy corn chapter)

Well, tonight's the night. The Grand Galloping Gala was only a couple of hours away and I have never been more scared as I was right now.

What if I miss a note.

You can't miss a note. Your Marcel Vilo Lin, you're on the same caliber as Slash or Jimi Hendrix or B.B King or Elvis..

What am I talking about. They are gods of guitars. I'm more like a bum who picked up a guitar and started strumming.

Well at least we can agree on one thing.

What's that?

You are devilishly handsome.

Yeah I know I am.

I seriously need to stop talking tyo myself, or thinking to myself in my case.

My train of self complement was interrupted by a knock on the door.

Strange, I thought I was meeting the guys in Canterlot?

I rushed to the door, hoping to see Crash or Waylay or Aero, but no. Once again I was granted a visit by the ivory white angel. I quickly unlocked the bar lock and opened the door, hoping to see her radiant smile, but to see her mane in a mess and she had a very worried look on her face.

"Oh hi Marcel. Sorry to arrive unannounced, and in a mess. This may seem as an odd request, but do you by chance have any candy corn that I can borrow?" She said giving me a sheepish grin.

Odd request? Yes. Strangest thing I've ever been asked for? Not even in the ballpark.

Candy corn… candy corn… Celestia I have to clean these cabinets.

After seconds of moving cans of beans and corn out of the way, I found a large container of the delicious three colored confection. I levitated the container which looked like it held millions pieces of candy corn to her and she let out a sigh.

"Thank you Marcel. I was working on a dress for Pinkie Pie and since she loves candy…well I guess that brings me here." She said with a giggle. (Celestia that was cute). "Pardon me for asking, but why are you dressed up." She started to eye me and smiled. "You do look rather ravishing in a suit"

(Did she just say I'm good looking in a suit? Note to self: Go to Tuxedo Warehouse in Canterlot after Gala.)

I was just about to try to talk to her, until my eyes fell on the clock and a noticed something.

OH CRAP! I'M GONNA BE LATE! Why am I always almost late? I thought in panic as a quickly levitated my guitar case and ran past Rarity. Gala, here I come. I thought, picturing the royal castle in my mind (the most important step in a teleportation spell) and in a flash of light, I was on the edge of the city of Canterlot. (Note to self#2: Practice aim with teleport spell)
