Heartfelt Harmony

A warm breeze filled the room from the open window. White curtains moved in the wind. Octavia closed her long lashed eyes. She laid backwards onto her bed and focused on the tranquil environment around her. How could she capture this moment in a song? This moment was so serene. There had to be a melody soft enough that she could produce with her rich cello. Just as she began composing the melody in her head her phone rang. Her eyes popped open. She sighed and picked up the phone. “You always call when I'm in the middle of working,” Octavia said with a sigh.

“Well I've got big news!” Vinyl shouted. “Even BIGGER than us living together in a dorm! In fact, it's a bit of a long shot but I think we should go with it!” As she spoke Octavia sat upwards. She looked out the window and watched her family in the tennis court. The small ball bounced back and fourth. This was a lifestyle she was hoping to obtain on her own someday. “Octi, Neon Lights called! He said that his producer really liked our CD! He wants us to go and meet with his producer! Octi we could be famous! We could go on tour!”

Octavia's heart skipped a beat knowing that Vinyl's dreams were going to come true. A big smile spread across her face. “That's great! I would be more than happy to accompany you! Mother is taking me shopping for our dorm later. What color curtains would you like?”

“Tavi, I don't think I'm going to go to school. I've done enough. If you think about it we don't need to go to school. We're musicians! Tavi your parents' connections could easily land you a gig in an orchestra right now! Think about it! Why do we need to go to school? We're graduating soon! Then we're free! No more rules! The only obligations we'll have is to ourselves!”

“Vinyl have you been smoking again?” she sighed and listened to her girlfriend's booming voice. The excitement was contagious but she also had to think of the lifestyle she wanted for herself. Living on the road in a bus wasn't the kind of thing she was into. Octavia got up and sat down at her dresser. She pulled open the door and found a bottle of purple nail polish. She began to spread a glossy coat over her nails while Vinyl continued.

“No! I told you that I gave that up for you! Well, there was that one time but you already know about that!” The DJ let out another exasperated sigh. “Look, I know I can do this if you're by my side cheering me on! I know that I can remix your music while you're on stage with me! It's really easy! We've winged it before! We can do this! We can go all out and rock a crowd! Don't you remember that one time that we---”

“---but what if we fail. What if we don't get jobs? What if the two of us end up doing okay?”

“Well, my parents just barely skimmed by. It wasn't the best at times but we always turned out great.”

“That's just it Vinyl! I don't want to just skim by! I want to be able to support myself in the lifestyle I've become accustomed to. This isn't a guaranteed thing. You're acting as if you're already a star performer and everyone is going to know your name. You got a good recommendation from a principal. You worked your butt off to be able to go to this school with me; an effort that has clearly been rewarded. Life never hands anyone anything for free.”

“Are you really using your parents' lectures against me?” Vinyl grumbled. “They're brain washing you! What happened to the girl that I used to skip class with? The girl that loved to ride the wind just as much as I do and enjoyed chasing dreams?”

“We're growing up. Foolish things aren't so easily forgiven.”

“But they are! They really are! Now's the time to chase our dreams and make mistakes!”

“Now is the time to prepare for our future and the rest of our lives. We've had our fun. High school was our time to enjoy ourselves and act rather reckless at times. Now is the time to go out and make a life for ourselves. What if we decide to have a family someday?”

“Why would you go to school just to play the cello?”

“I'm not. I'm going to major in music. Someday perhaps I can become a professor on musical theory.”

“Is that your dream or your parents' dream?” Vinyl snapped. “I'm sick of this Tavi! You know as well as I do that they're feeding you that crap and you're buying into it! They had another talk didn't they? They told you it'd never work out any other way didn't they? Well they're wrong! Just...just come with me Octi. Please. I need you! When we graduate we'll go to the recording studio. We'll finally start OUR life.”

“I have worked hard for four years to get into this university.” Her violet eyes were beginning to fill with tears. “I have studied very hard and have slacked off with you on those rare occasions to relieve myself of the pressures that my family and the others put on me. Day to day life was preparing me to be able to live the life I want to live. Vinyl, I am not content with living in a trailer park or even mediocre houses. I do not wish to be middle class! I wish to surpass my parents' and to make the world think I am more than I am.”

“You think that a big house is going to do that for you? You think that five cars or any possession in the world shows worth? I'm talking hundreds Octi! Hundreds of people screaming your name every night! That's just the beginning! Everyone! Everyone is going to know who Octascratch is! And if you think that you are going to be living that luxurious life without a risk you're wrong! Graduation is coming up. Just...just think about it...”

Beep. Octavia looked at her phone and realized her girlfriend hung up the phone. Her nails glistened in the sunlight but they became blurry as tears trickled down her cheeks. Vinyl didn't seem to get it. She did want the best for their life. She wanted to ensure their future anyway she could. To her that was real love. She was willing to put her dreams on hold so that they could have a better life. She let out a long sigh and stared at her cello case. Everything was in motion. They were going to get a dorm next to Lyra and Bon Bon. The pair were finally going to start their lives together. Did they both really want the same thing? Were they both moving in the right direction?

“Dear student body...no. Dear class...no...” Lyra sighed and looked down at the paper. Dark smudges spread across it. “I'm never going to get this right.” She put her head down on the desk. “The whole school is going to be watching and listening! I don't want them to zone out but at the same time I don't want to disappoint parents. How am I going to do this? Maybe I should just run over and steal Twilight Sparkle's speech! Bon Bon is constantly raving about her campaigns since she is the student body president and all.” She turned to Octavia. “What would you write? You write amazing speeches.”

Octavia's violet eyes were unusually dull as she looked to her friend. “I would write...” she thought about it for a moment. “To the class of 2014 this has been an unusually rough year full of choices. We finally made it. Some of us will go on to bigger and better things. Others of us will drift apart. Even though we may not all come from the same backgrounds we all have the same changes. Some of us need to take more advantage of those chances and learn to appreciate what's in front of us.”

Lyra smiled. “It was a good start but I think that's stepping on the toes of our fellow classmates. Besides, Bon Bon will be there watching me give the speech. If I screw it up I'll look three times as stupid. I like where it was going but...hey! I think I've got it!” She jotted down a few notes and then looked up at Octavia. “I know what this is about. That's a really rough choice. You don't know whether or not you'll actually be able to get Vinyl to join us in our dorm.” She smiled. “But you know you can always go with her.”

“Are you insane?”

“No. I just think it's really romantic to be there to support her. She's chasing a dream! Two dreams if you think about it.” She smiled. “These four years I've been able to see both people's sides. I was a great mediator on the student council. I also became the student body president last year! Now I'm prepared to give my speech knowing that I fully understood the students here. I fully understand where you're coming from as well as where she is.”

“If you were in my shoes what would you do?”

“Me? I'd break up with Vinyl and chase Bon Bon.” She giggled at her own joke. Her eyes softened as she looked at Tavi. “Look, no choice is ever easy. Especially not this one. Most people seem to think that if one goes off to college and if the other one goes off somewhere else it's over. It can work. You've already proven that. No matter what you two choose to do it's not over.”

“You knew that I was considering ending it?” She sighed and began to hug her cello case as if it were a teddy bear. “I just don't know the right answer. I was relieved when I had a full plan since this is the beginning of our lives and all. Now those plans are shattered.”

“Life throws twists, turns, and challenges. I believe in Vinyl though. She'd never take on something that she didn't already believe is possible. Come on.” Lyra stood up and smiled. “Let's go get some ice cream. That always fixes everything!”

Vinyl took a deep breath. She had to do it. She had to visit Octavia in person! There was no response on her phone or through e-mail. She knew her Tavi needed space but she needed an answer. Her cap and gown was stuffed in a plastic bag. She thought about giving her tassel to Tavi as a present. Sighing she picked up her phone and dialed Bon Bon. “Hey. Are you still going to give me a lift to the graduation ceremony?”

“Of course! Lyra is giving a big speech and Tavi is going to be opening the ceremony with the other band students. It's going to be a big day for both of our girls!” Bon Bon giggled. “I also stopped by Pinkie's bakery to get a cake. She's really outdone herself.”

Vinyl nodded and sighed. “I hope she'll come home with me. Mom gave me her house as a graduation present. It's not much but it's home.” She smiled and looked at the small two bedroom house. “Someday I'll make money and give Tavi what she wants. For now this will have to do. Someday she'll be my spoiled brat because I'll make enough money to give Tavi her every desire!”

“So romantic!” Bon Bon squealed. “All Lyra ever talks about getting me are cheap dorm decorations as of late.”

“Well, I have something really special.” Vinyl smirked. “I'll tell you about it when you come to pick me up.”

Octavia went out to the stage with all the other band students. This was their final farewell. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Her black dress hugged her curves. Her long hair was neatly pinned up in a bun. Today she looked like the woman her parents had always wanted her to be. The band started up. She closed her eyes and focused on her part of the piece. Her long lashes fell upon her cheek making her look more elegant than ever. Her nicely shaped calf muscles were accented by her heals. The black dress revealed a tasteful amount of cleavage. Vinyl adjusted her glasses. She'd never seen a more beautiful girl—no--a more beautiful woman in her whole life.

The and stood up and took a bow. Each member left the stage. “And now for our valid victorian,” Cadence announced, “Miss Lyra Heartstrings!”

Lyra came onto the stage wearing a really pretty dress. She looked at the class with their caps, gowns, and tassels. “Welcome class of 2014.” Her amber eyes gazed upon the class. She froze feeling a little more nervous than she should've been. Her eyes met Bon Bon's and she began to relax. “Together we fought a four-year battle. All of use are here tonight because we have achieved victory! Together we stood side by side through paperwork, tests, teachers, and more. We have all faced huge decisions and have triumphed. Some of us have been together since we were small children. Some of us merged with this giant class at a later date. Now we are all here together for the last time. Some of us will go on to college. Some of us will go on to careers. No matter what we will all remain the champions we are! Someday we will each find happiness in our own ways. Remember that the destination is just as important as the journey. Good luck everyone! Keep in touch! It's been a pleasure getting to know each of you these past four years! I'll miss you all!”

Octavia's heals clacked on the floor. She knew that she'd tell Vinyl it was over. That they were each starting their own lives. Nothing could convince her otherwise. She gripped her cell phone. It was as easy as pushing a button! No longer would she sit up late at night wondering what was going to happen! No longer would she be trapped into a choice between her dream and her lover's. It was time for her to put her best foot forward and do things for herself! Octavia scrolled down her contacts. She found Vinyl's name. A dark purple nail inched towards the send button. Her eyes began to cloud with tears but she refused to let them fall.

Two hands snaked around her waist. “I've missed you like crazy.” A long hand ran through Octavia's hair. She was spun around quickly to face Vinyl. It'd been almost a year since the two were face to face. Tavi's heart began to race as she looked at the DJ. For months she was a pixilated figure on a computer screen. Now Tavi's eyes took in every detail of her precious lover. The two moved in synch as their lips met. Tavi dropped her phone which somehow landed in the DJ's pocket. Octavia suddenly remembered why she'd turned down all of those dates and why she was longing for Vinyl.

“What do you think you're doing young lady?!”

The lovers spun around to see Octavia's parents. They both looked disgusted and infuriated at the same time. Her mother's mouth hung open like a fish caught on a hook. Her father's eye twitched and a vein pulsated on his forehead. Vinyl smirked and took off her glasses. She folded them and put them in her pocket. “What I've been waiting years to do.” Vinyl was working a few part time jobs but she managed to save up some cash. She took out a small box and got down on one knee. “I've been working on a speech of my own!” She opened the box. A diamond ring in the shape of a treble clef sparkled up against black silk. “For years I've been lost and hopeless. I went through the motions without even realizing it. Then I met you. You taught me the passion of music, friendship, and even love. Octavia, my music, life, and heart will never be complete without you. Someday I'm going to give you that big house in the hills and anything else you've ever dreamed of. It might not seem like much now, but this is my promise to you. Someday, will you marry me?”

Tavi's eyes clouded with tears. She held her hand forward while shaking her head. The cello player was speechless. The diamond sparkled on her hand. She looked at her parents and shook her head. Without saying a word she walked out with Vinyl hand and hand. No matter what choice she made so long as she was with Vinyl it was the right one.

----- A few years later----------

The pair made their way into the dressing room. Vinyl could hear the cheering crowd wanting an encore but she didn't care. Millions of fans could wait. “Vinyl not now,” Tavi pleaded. She felt Vinyl's teeth sink into her collar bone. She let out a moan not being able to resist. Vinyl gripped her hips and put her on the dressing room table. She unzipped Tavi's dress.

“Not wearing a bra? So naughty...” Vinyl teased while kissing down to her sensitive nipples. She gave her nipples a playful pinch before taking her tongue to the right one. Octavia leaned her head back and moaned. Her eyes rolled back into her head with pleasure. Vinyl's hands began to grip her upper thighs and pry her legs apart. “No sense in resisting.” She looked up and gave her lover a playful wink before going back to pleasuring her nipples.

Octavia's hand slide across a picture of the two playing on a big stage. Feeling the picture she pushed it away not wanting to harm such a treasure. Her fingers gripped the edge of the table. She scratched at the surface desperate to dig her nails into something. “Vinyl...” Tavi moaned softly. “Fuck me! Take me!”

Vinyl teased the outside of her love's pussy with her fingers. She felt the moist silk and grinned. “Wow. You really do want me.” She nipped Octavia's ear and grinned deviously. The DJ pulled back the silk and ran her finger down Tavi's moist silk. “Alright my spoiled brat,” she teased. “But only because the show's about to start.”

Octavia grinned knowing that she meant no harm by the strange pet name. Soon her quivering muscles felt the familiar fingers plunge into her. “Mmmm...Vinyl....” They began to move back and fourth in time with her quivering legs. Tavi leaned backwards enough to be able to thrust into her lover's hand. Her breasts moved in synch with the rest of her body. Purple nails gripped a satan ribbon tied to one of the draws. Loud moans of ecstasy could be heard from outside the room.

“My favorite symphony,” Vinyl teased. She kissed Octavia's lips passionately. She ran her finger over her wife's hand. She was thrilled that she'd managed to make their dreams come true. She climbed ontop of the table and wrapped Tavi's legs around hers in such a way that the two could rub their clits against one another. Her thrusts were long and hard while she massaged Tavi's breasts. Soon hot fluids began to pour over her pussy. “Already love?”

Tavi blushed and looked up. “I've got more.”

Neon Lights pounded on the door. “Every performance I swear! Don't you two ever take a break!?!”

“That's my cue,” Vinyl said putting her clothes on. She turned to her wife and kissed her sweet lips. “I'll be back soon.” The DJ rushed out the door leaving her trembling wife on the table. Tavi smiled warmly and sighed. While getting dressed she looked at all the different photos the pair had together. Life couldn't be sweeter!
