Band Mates

"I'm not doing this." Octavia said.

"Why not?! This is our chance to become closer!" Vinyl replied, giggling.

"I'm not going to share a bed with a mare who doesn't even shower before bed." Octavia said, folding her arms and sitting down on her new couch.

"Hey! I shower. In the morning." Vinyl admitted.

Octavia rolled her eyes, getting up and making her way upstairs to where a bathroom and a room rested at the top of the stairs. She walked to the door closest to her. She opened it.

The bathroom was a light blue scheme. The shower was a reasonably large size with glass walls. The toilet was classically positioned by the sink which was built in the wall, lacking any sort of cabinet below. The mirror was styled with a silver elegant lining and the floor was white marble. Octavia smiled, closing the door, trotting to the other door.

Octavia opened the door and flipped the light switch. Her jaw dropped.

An exquisite king-sized bed with a black wood bed frame, red silk sheets, and two pre-fluffed pillows with pillowcases matching the sheets. Octavia then noticed the lighting, it was low, like candle-light dinner low. The room had red wallpaper with a intricate bronze design. Octavia took three steps further into the room. Two nightstands made from blackwood had two identical lamps on each side. Behind her, on each side of the door had two identical dressers, both made from blackwood. The carpet was, as you would have guessed it, a dark red color scheme.

Octavia felt two hooves slipping over her shoulders and around her neck. "Well, this room is romantic." Said Vinyl, jokingly.

"Knock it off Vinyl!" Octavia shoved Vinyl off her, walking out the door and down the stairs, Vinyl following closely behind.

"Hey Tavi, gimme some bits." Vinyl demanded.

"Why?"

"I'm gonna go grocery shopping." Vinyl said.

They reached the bottom of the stairs. Octavia grabbed a bag of bits from her saddlebag and tossed it to Vinyl. Vinyl made her way out the door. She took two steps outside and looked around. It's been an hour since the duo moved to Ponyville and Vinyl already knew that this place was going to be the best place she probably ever lived.

Lyra sat in her room in the corner. She didn't want to know what was going to happen next. She never thought she was going to see them again.

tch tch

Lyra lit up a cigarette and put it too her mouth, inhaling the fumes before choking and throwing the cigarette down, stomping on it. She let the puff of smoke release from her nose. The door handle turned as Bon Bon emerged from the door.

"Still sad? What's wrong hun?" Bon Bon asked, concerned.

"Remember when I told you I moved away from my home town?" Lyra began.

Bon Bon nodded.

"I lied."

Bon Bon leaned in closer, now interested.

"I moved away from my roommates. I had a crush on one of them and well, I fucked up our friendship over a little argument and walked out. I walked out because I didn't have my way and I was scared of coming back because I thought I wouldn't be able to come back. So I came here and well, found the best thing that ever happened to me-" Lyra smiled, holding Bon Bon's hoof. "-But now my past has come to haunt me, my former roommates are here in Ponyville for some reason, and I'm too damn scared to go and talk to them, you know, catch up n' stuff." Lyra confessed.

Bon Bon just sat there. "Oh, um, well you should um-" Bon Bon was stumped.

Bon Bon locked eyes with Lyra, biting her lip. "How about....you go and get the groceries and I'll give you a treat once you get back." Bon Bon smiled seductively.

Lyra looked up and giggled slightly. "Yeah, alright, sure."

No less than twenty minutes later, Lyra was out of the door with her black hoodie on, along with her saddlebags containing a water bottle and a pouch full of bits. She started off with fruits and vegetables, then continued on buying dairy and some sweets for later.

Lyra walked back to her home, looking at the contents of her saddlebags to make sure she didn't anything before-

WHAM!

Lyra fell flat on her flank, her vision blurred.

"Ugh, sorry about that, ow." Lyra said, rubbing her arm.

"S'all good." Said a familiar voice.

Lyra's vision readjusted. She looked up at who collided with her. Her jaw dropped.

"How's it hangin' Lyra." Said a familiar DJ pony.

Lyra tried to speak but only a whimper came out.

"Well, it was nice seein' ya' Lyra, have a good day." Said the marshmallow mare, trotting off.

"whu-" Lyra whimpered, still dumbfounded by the encounter. She knew she was going to run into one of them, or if she was lucky she wasn't going to.

She trotted back home, thinking about the collision with her old friend. Her house was became visible and she smiled slightly, she finally made it.

"YOU SAW WHO?!" Octavia exclaimed.

"Tavi, this is like the third time I told you this. I saw Lyra and trust me, the look on her face. Priceless." Vinyl said, giggling.

"Did she say anything about me?" Octavia asked frantically.

"She didn't say anything at all, actually, she just kept saying 'whu'."

Octavia slouched on the couch she was sitting on, she sighed. She couldn't believe what she was hearing, but she also didn't want to. What if she saw Lyra herself? What if Vinyl's just lying?

She shutdown. Unable to speak, lost in thought. Vinyl tried to grab her attention but it slipped from her grasp.

"Pfft, great, now you're like Lyra." Vinyl said, rolling her eyes.

~

Lyra plopped down on the bed, Bon Bon followed, landing on top of the seafoam green mare. Bon Bon began kissing her neck, going lower and lower, stopping just before reaching Lyra's mare hood and began working her way up. Lyra smiled fakely, still think of the encounter. Bon Bon came back up and kissed Lyra before she noticed how spaced out Lyra was.

"You alright, hun? Bon Bon asked, her question splotched with concern.

"I saw Vinyl today, she was one of my old roommates before I moved." Lyra sighed.

"Oh, what did she say?" Asked Bon Bon, intrigued.

"She just made small talk but I was too surprised to answer so she walked away." Lyra answered rolling her eyes.

Bon Bon held her. "Well, I'm sure everything will go well, now lets get some sleep, cutie." Bon Bon said, making an attempt to reassure her lover.

"Yeah I guess." Lyra said, reaching for the lantern.

"Your hoggin' the blankets Tavi." Vinyl uttered, tugging at the soft sheets of the bed.

"I can assure you, that you're the one who is 'hogging' the blankets." Octavia replied.

"Ugh, bullshit." Vinyl mumbled, rolling her eyes.

"Shut it and go to sleep!" Octavia snapped.

Vinyl smirked and yanked the blankets, though Octavia had a firm grip.

"Hey! What the actual hell!" Octavia yelled.

"Shut up and give me the blankets you chuckle fuck!" Vinyl shouted, this time using all of her might to yank the blankets off of Octavia, she succeeded but a grey mare came with the red silk.

Vinyl now had a blushing grey mare on top of her.

"Well, this is a predicament." Vinyl quipped, her cheeks tinted red.

"Well, I guess so." Octavia replied, smirking.
