One Day Like This

I trotted my way upstairs to keep up the reputation hailed to my name, I scribbled. I scribbled, and scribbled and scribbled. I loved Vinyl. I think she loves me, not like I could tell though. I had this thing called aspergers. I didn't know what it did, but it obviously did something. Maybe it was related to my awkwardness. Aw hell, like I cared. I loved somepony for once. I've never felt this way about somepony before. I was always told by my parents that I shouldn't rush into love. I didn't listen. I wanted to be with this mare. I drew her several times over. I was obsessed. Call me creepy, (even though I am) but I needed to get my emotions out. I did this often and I think it's healthy. It works, so that's all I care about. It was a great day. I truly knew who I loved and had drawing inspiration for once. Knock knock. Oh shit...... I opened the door to find a sad looking Vinyl. I invited her in and we sat down to talk.

"What's wrong Vinyl, you alright?" I had to ask something, she looked down. I wanted to lift her up, because this wasn't normal Vinyl behavior.

"Oh, I just felt bad from leaving so abruptly, Octy needed me for something. Apparently, we had bills to pay. Who gives a shit about bills!? I certainly don't. Why the hell should I give my money to somepony I don't know, huh? I mean, Celestia!" She was venting like crazy. I didn't know what to say. I mean, I don't care for bills, but gosh, she was going crazy over this. I tried to calm her down.

"Well, uh....." My voice trailed off into a never-ending void of stupidity. Suddenly though, I was carried back through the void to ask the horrible question that dodges all questions, "Would you like something to drink?" Oh shit...... Did I just make this awkward again. DAMN YOU ASPERGERS! YOU'RE A BEAST FROM HELL THAT CAME TO RUIN MY LIFE!

"Sure, I'll take some water." A typical Vinyl response, but just the thing I wanted to hear. I just didn't want to hear what came next as I got water from the tap. "Why don't you have water in gallons in the fridge." Quickly, lie. Lie like you have never lied before, A.K.A, make it believable.

"Well, I don't mind the taste of tap water. That's all." Celestia, I hope she believed it. She kinda didn't though, I think, only because she asked me to drink it, if I didn't mind, FFFF--. I couldn't drink this, I would die. A little splash of water wouldn't hurt, just kinda tingle. Any amount of a believable drink would destroy me, from the inside out. I didn't know what to do. I drank it anyways, thinking I might pretend I went into a coughing fit. I tried, but it didn't work, because she knew of my instincts. She stuck out her hoof and just let it sit in the air. She had a smirk like she knew me before I knew her. She and I both knew what I wanted to do to her hoof, so I did. I bit her. I drank until my insides were feeling normal. I let go to just see her giving me that smirk again. It was that kind of a smirk that meant she knew what she was talking about, and knew everything from square one. It wasn't common for Vinyl to think, so this shocked me. The blood dripped from my face to the floor, I always was a bit of a messy eater. I looked at her again and began to cry. My knees felt weak and I fell to the floor. I was bawling. I never told anypony outside of my parents this. What was I going to do? Move with the little bits that I have? Get a new name, a new identity even? No, I was going to have to live with what I just endured. My pain was momentarily interrupted by the feeling of a soft hoof touch my shoulder. I glanced up to see Vinyl with a concerned look in her eyes. She lied down beside me and proceeded to talk some sense into me.

"Look, Scribbler, I knew you were different from the minute I heard about your 'flour allergy.' It's fine, I promise, I won't tell nopony. Not even Octy, kay?" I nodded my head in the middle of my bawling. I couldn't stop. I never understood how tears didn't hurt me, but I didn't care. I was just feeling like shit now. I couldn't help but hug Vinyl. She was reluctant at first, but she hugged me back. I guess she thought it was the right thing to do, I mean, I was crying my eyes out. It felt good to have her in my arms. Her coat was soft and silky. She the decided to speak up. "It'll be alright, I promise, just don't you worry. Nopony will know except us." There was a bit more of a pause when she spoke up again. "Scribbler, can I ask you a question?"

Well, I felt like shit, I bit my only true love, and made an ass out of myself in the process. I nodded my head, not like there was anything else to make my day worse. She asked, "Do you love me?" Her shades were off and she was looking into my eyes. I met her gaze with mine and let the silence fill the room. "Yes." It's not like I could have said anything else. I didn't want to lie to her again. After the words escaped my lips though, they were met with a kiss. A kiss that changed my life. A kiss that I assumed meant the beginning of a new page in the sad book of my life. We kissed for what seemed like hours when she gently pushed away. Her face was red with love, and so was mine. She could barely see it though, being that I have a red coat. We kissed some more and felt each other close. We both knew that it would end well. We walked to my room, where we slept that night's events off, preparing for tomorrow, and what ever may face us as a couple.
