the weekend

Vinyl awoke to the sound of her alarm clock, and she quickly silenced it. Vinyl strained her ears listening for the sound of anyone who might be awake. Luckily, all she heard was silence.She let out a sigh of relief, as she had feared that she might have woken up her roommate Octavia (“or Tavi”as Vinyl liked to call her) if she had her whole plan would have been ruined. Just then her phone went off, and she quickly answered it.”Hello? Is this Miss Scratch?” The mare on the other line asked.

”Yeah that’s me! But you can just call me Vinyl.”she replied

 “Oh, well okay then. I was just calling to tell you that the package you ordered is finally in…” Vinyl tried to contain her excitement.

”Oh that’s great. I’ll be there to pick it up as soon as I can.” Vinyl said.

”Okay then, good bye.” Vinyl hung up the phone. She had been waiting for this package for several long weeks... It would be the perfect gift to show how she felt for Octavia."But what if it's not enough...? What if she doesn't think the same about me…?" She said aloud. She shook her head. "Vinyl, don’t be like that. Everything will be fine. " She walked up and grabbed a piece of paper, then wrote a note to Octavia that she would see on her door. She smiled when she wrote ‘Tavi’. She knew Octavia would get mad about it, but Vinyl knew it was the perfect nickname for her. She was about to walk out the door to their house when she got an idea... An hour later, Vinyl had finished making some waffles for Tavi and posted a note next to the stack of deliciousness that she’d see.. She smiled to herself. Tavi was going to love them! Just then, she heard the sound of Tavi’s door opening upstairs and the sound of hooves clopping their way downstairs. Vinyl ran for the door and had just managed to close it behind her before Octavia had noticed her.

"Whoa, that was a close one! Tavi almost saw me. That would have been awkward.

Like seriously, she would be like Vinyl the note on your door said you were gone why did you write that? Then she would ask where I was going, man she would have like totally ruined the surprise!" Vinyl walked down the street to the marketplace. She ran into Lyra and Bon Bon she told them that she was in a hurry and that they would have to come over for dinner sometime. As she walked to the market, she took a right towards the post office. She soon reached her destination and entered the post office."Hello, may I help you miss..." The mare behind the counter asked her.

"Oh, I'm Vinyl Scratch. I was told my package was ready to be picked up.”

"Ah yes Miss Scratch, your package is in the back. I’ll go fetch it for you.”

"Oh thanks a lot oh and just call me Vinyl" she replied while the mare went through the door leading to the back. A few minutes later the mare came back through holding a large package.

"here you go miss Scratch it's very large may I ask what it is..."

"oh it's a gift for my roommate I hope she likes it".

"Well she is one lucky mare to have a friend like you."

"yeah well I better get going bye"

"goodbye and have a pleasant day.
