Good Time
The alley
Load Full StoryWinter Meadow started trotting to the party, his white mane and fur right at his back as he trotted, but soon realized that he was going early. He slowed his pace to a walk and got his headphones to his ears.
He started listening a song called "Scientist" and then turned his thoughts to his broher, who was surely having dinner by now.
Winter was always thinking about stuff, and he couldn't get rid of sadness from thoughts of his friends and family; he always was forgot by his friends, even the two of wich he thought were his "best friends", and always was interrupted, like if destiny didn't want him to be heard. Or, at least, that's what he always told himself
But he was accustomed to that kind of life, it had been like that since he had memory and he could do little to nothing to change that.
He started feeling bad from seemingly nowere and then he felt like he didn't have he will to keep going to the party. H etried to keep o going, but then he heard himself speaking in his brain.
I don't even know where you are going said his voice in his mind you know the party will be the same with or without you so, why bother? They just invited you because you offered to help
The thoughts went on and on and he then reached an alley and sat on a box, watching the night go by. He shifted his position and he heard a sound very similar to a glass bottle. He reached his backpack and saw a bottle of vodka and a beer below a sweater.
"Thanks brother for the drinks" said to noone as he opened the beer and took a sip from it.
He didn't like to drink too much, but he didn't like to be sad either, and with beer, everything was real funny. As he drank the bottle to the half he started chukling to himself and, in no time, he heard a voice coming from the street behind him.
"A-Are you okay?" asked the female voice shyly as tiny steps where heard coming closer "Hello? You, the one in the box. Are you okay?" asked yet again as she saw the young stallion trip as he tried to get to his hooves.
Winter tried to stand, but instead tripped whit his own hooves and fell on his hands. He got up and saw the beautiful mare in front of him.
She was a little shorter than he was, but she was still really cute and she had light purple fur with dark purple mane with two steaks of pink. She had a book on her left hand and an orb in her right hand, ready to perform magic.
Winter blinked several times and then answered "Yeah, I'm fine, but who are you?"
"Oh, where are my manners." She droppedher book in her backpack with magic, along with the orb "I'm Twilight Sparkle, and you are?"
"Winter Meadow, I was going to... Wait... What time it is?" Winter checked his cellphone and let out a gasp in shock "I'll be late for the party!!"
"Wait, what? A party?" Asked Twilight confused, "what where you doing here then?"
"That's... Not important now, but I have to run or I'll be real late" He then turned to run, but instead of running, he tripped and fell to the ground again Damn, drunk already?
He felt magic helping him to stand again and then Twilight said something, but he didn't listen so well. He felt how his arm got wrapped in the mare's shoulders and they both started walking
"Ummm... What are you doing?" He asked confused, but unwilling to let go.
"I'm carring you to this party. And.. maybe... when we get there... you could... get me in?" Said Twilight blushing a little.
"Whoa, whoa, what? You've just picked me up from a back alley and you are trying to get to the party I'm going?" Winter let go of Twilight shoulder and stood in the middle of the street."Things like that could get you killed. Do you know anything about my party?"
"I... I guess you are right... but you could at least explain me how will be this party? I've never been at one and I really want to" Twilight sat in the sidewalk and got her knees near her chest. "I'm always alone in my house or at school and you seem like me, so I thought that maybe I could go to the party and do something different." She looked up to Winter's eyes "Please?"
"Damn... you sure? What about your parents?" Winter sat beside her and tried to sound smooth, even through he was feeling really bad for her.
"They wont noice, I could say them that I'm off to study and they would be okay with that. I just don't want to be alone and I'm certain that you know the feeling." Twilight smiled to Winter and said once more "Please?"
"Okay, just don't hold me like before, I'm better now"
"Yes, yes, woohoooo!" Yelled Twilight jumping and spinning around.
"And please, be quiet. I don't think you should yell like that this late"
"Sorry, what time it is?" Asked Twilight lowering her voice to a wisper
"Around 9:30, now lets go, or we wont make it"
And so, they both started trotting the few streets that they needed to get to the place of the party
