To Love Derpy

Chapter 2: Vinyl’s Plan

The next day...

I waited at home, twiddling my hooves. Where was she? Vinyl was meant to be home an hour ago. That blasted mare has probably gone out partying without so much as stopping home first. Though that was typical behaviour for her. As my patience started to wear thin I heard the door slam loudly and a voice sings. “Tavi I’m home!” Now was my chance.

“Oh Vinyl dear, how pleased I am to finally get to see you tonight” I said sarcastically,

“Sorry Tavi, had to work late, the new mix is really going great I tell ya!” She sat down on the cream sofa opposite me and a look of concern washed onto her face. “Tavi, you ok?” She said worriedly.

I took in a deep breath, “No Vinyl I’m not”. The white Unicorn got up and sat down beside me,

“Tell me what’s wrong, I hate seeing you glum” she looked at me, removing her glasses revealing her bring red eyes and made serious eye contact with me.

“I.... I *cough* I...” I was stuttering, terrified to tell her. Vinyl frowned

“Tavi just tell me!” No turning back now.

“IhavefeelingsforDerpy” I said in a rush. Vinyl looked confused

“wait... what...Oh!” a massive grin appeared on her face. “I knew it! I knew it!” She shouted dancing around the room, her blue spiky mane bouncing in the air.

I was shocked. She knew? How? “Hahaha the look on your face Tavi, you thought I couldn’t tell?” Vinyl said smiling from ear to ear.

“But...but...how?” “Tavi, no offence, but you’re not exactly hiding it well” I was shocked. Did that mean Derpy knew? Why hadn’t she said anything? Vinyl reassured me, “Don’t worry, Derpy doesn’t know, she’d of said something by now” I breathed a sigh of relief, feeling calmer and happy for telling Vinyl, even if she had already guessed. Vinyl grabbed my hoof “Now you have to tell ‘er, don’t worry about it. Leave it all to be”.... Ok now I was worried.

The next night...

I was standing in my living room, waiting for Vinyl who was rummaging in her room for something ‘important’. Earlier that day Vinyl had rushed out early to tell Derpy I was treated her to a nice dinner at the ‘The Griffin’, a new restaurant in town square. I was wearing a lilac dress, frilled at the edges, I had my normally strait hair up and curled into a bun, I thought I looked pretty good. I thought of how Derpy will look, blushing I focused my attention to Vinyl who had just come into the room. She was carrying a crystal purple necklace, matching the colour of my cutiemark.
“Tavi, it will be ok, just go out, have fun and tell her your feelings” Giving me a hug Vinyl wished me luck once more before pushing me quickly out the door.

Here we go Octavia... play it cool.
