Sup everypony. I thought that I would put this story up just for the hell of it. Since that I play guitar, and I like Metal music, and that Twilight's my favorite character out of the main six. So yeah, why not? :twilightsmile: Anyways, this is a first person view story, and I tried to make it interesting as I could, and I was listening to music while I was doing this. So yeah, I hope you guys enjoy it. I worked hard on this.


Hanging Out

I've been in Equestria for three months now, and I've been having some trouble making new friends, since that I'm a human and all, and I play guitar. I play a seven string Jackson guitar, and I have to say, it's a pretty badass guitar. I've been staying at a castle that's not for from Ponyville, I tried to make new friends, but they never got use to me, and that's something that really gets me. But usually all I do is just sit on the couch and play my guitar while she and the baby assistant dragons gone for an errand. They've been gone for like thirty minutes now, and I've been trying my best not to flirt with her, but sometimes I can't help it. My heart races when she comes near me, talks to me, and so on. Yes I have a crush on her. And she makes me smile every time I feel down, though whats complicated is that I don't know how to confess my feelings for her. Will she be the same for me? That I don't know. But I never bother asking for advise from her friends, or the baby dragon. I haven't told her friends either about me having a crush on her, as I just sat there on the couch with my guitar in my arms, and playing through the frets. I hear a door open, and it came from the front, they must be back already. I put my guitar on the guitar stand, and walked to the main entrance. Yep, there back already. She stops and looks at me, with that smile she always gives me.

"Hey, guitar player." She teases, I always loved that name that she gave me. It makes me want to smile.

"Um... hey whats up?"

"We just got back from sugarcube corner." The baby assistant dragon responses with a cupcake in his claws.

"Oh thats cool." I said trying to put on a smile. I remember going to sugarcube corner, Mr and Mrs. Cake didn't like me very much, and I just ran back to the castle when they kept yelling get out, because of what I am.

"Hey, don't feel bad." Twilight said wrapping a wing around me. "they'll get use to you eventually. You just have to get out more, thats all." Hearing her say that makes my heart beat really fast, and it warms my heart that she really cares, and i can't thank her enough for that. And I just now notice that she has a box of cupcakes on her back.

"So, what are the cupcakes for exactly?" I asked nervously.

"Oh, we're having a party at Applejacks, and she wants to know if you can bring your guitar along with you, the others will be there. "

"Okay," I said blushing.

"Uh... Are you okay?"

"Huh?... Oh yeah, sorry." I said getting back to attention. So I ran to the room where I left my guitar, and I packed it in the guitar case, along with the amp in my hand, holding it by the handle, and the pick in my pocket. Now with my hands full, we made our way to Applejacks farm. I remember Applejack introduce me to the Apple Family, they we're really nice, and they got use to me very well. Even her little sister, Applebloom. At least I get to hang out with my new friends, or as I like to call them, My best friends. Since that they gave me a new life, a home, even care.

We arrive at Sweet Apple Acres, Everyone, or as they put it "Everypony." Is already here for Applejacks birthday party. It wasn't long when they noticed me, Twilight, and Spike.

"Howdy ya'll, glad you could make it Twi."

"I'm very happy to be here Applejack." Twilight said with a smile on her face to respect her friend. "Happy birthday."

"Yeah, happy birthday A.J." Spike said with excitement that he's ready to party.

"Aw shucks. Applejack said dismantleling her hat. "And I see you brought ur friend along. How you doin' partner?"

"I'm doing awesome A.J. Thanks for asking, happy birthday." I said with a smile. She even notices the guitar case that I have, and the big amp.

"Thank you for bringing your guitar to my birthday party sugarcube, I've never seen anypony play that fast on guitar in my whole life, especially when it's a... seven string." Applejack said taking a good look at my guitar case when it has the big bold letters in cursive that reads "Jackson" on it.

"Yeah, I'm a god." I teased Applejack, we both shared a laugh, and walked into the barn, everyone else noticed me.

"Alright, we have a guitar god in the house!" The rainbow haired Pegasus said flying to me. I put my amp down and gave her a knuckle touch (or hoof touch as they call it here.) "How you doing bro? You still playing that guitar?"

"I'm doing awesome Rainbow, thanks for asking. And yes I still play that guitar." I said as I put the case down and opened it. Her eyes widened an amazement, she always told me how awesome my guitar is, having an extra string and all.

"Cool." She whispered. At the corner of my eye, I see a microphone on the end of the barn. It's been placed there... by Twilight, does she want me to sing or something? I hope not. Unless if someone will sing when I play the guitar, though it is Applejacks birthday, so I can't go to far on guitar. I do play Metal, so I'll go a bit smoother, like Progressive Metal. Yeah, Progressive Metal's perfect.

"Well bro what are you waiting for? Let's hook this bad boy up!" Rainbow Dash said in excitement. I rolled my eyes, but smiled as I picked up my guitar and amp, trying to find a perfect spot to play on.

"Hey, over here!" The pink party pony calls out. I walked over there, and I notice that Twilight's with her. Oh shit.

"You ready to hook this up?" Twilight asked with a smile on her face.

"Uh... Sure," I said nervously. "But before we do that, am I gonna sing in front of... everybody?" I whispered and shivered as I said the last word in the sentence.

"Well of course you are," She said giving me a smile. "Don't be nervous, i hear you sing all the time while you play the guitar. You have an amazing voice." Oh my god, hearing that made me blush like my face is bleeding to death. Though I have thought about it for a minute, could this be my chance? My chance to be with the pony that's the princess of friendship? The pony that I truly love? It could be. I nervously gulped, I have never performed in front of a crowd before, but it's not much, just six ponies and a dragon, and let's not forget about the Apple Family, and the cutie mark crusaders. I took a deep breath.

"Okay." I said silently and scared.

"Alright, let's get this guitar hooked up than." She said levitating my amp with her magic, I watched Twilight, Spike, and Rainbow Dash hook up my guitar amp up, since that they know that I don't know how to hook it up myself, cause theres no plug ins in Equestria. She levitates me the guitar chord as they we're done hooking it up. "Try it out, see if it works." So thats what I did, I plugged my guitar up, and start to do the guitar solo. I can hear the volume turned almost all the way up, and Rainbow Dash testing the microphone. yep, it's gonna be a long night for me. I tried to think of my favorite Metal bands to calm me down, but this could be my big chance, to be with Twilight. And since that I haven't recorded a song yet, maybe a cover won't hurt. But all the headbanging music that I listen to, I can't go to far on that. I remember thinking about playing some Progressive Metal earlier when I was talking to Rainbow Dash. Yeah, Progressive metal won't hurt, will it? Maybe I can play some Dream Theater. So while everyone was doing there thing, setting up tables, decorating, all that stuff. I began practicing the song that I'm gonna play, I can see everyone watching me, even the cutie mark crusaders who really like to watch me play my guitar. I can hear the singer in my head as I played through the song, I finished in no time as we we're about to get ready.

Back at home, I remember thinking what my cousin told me. "Just imagine everyone in their underwear." How can I when theirs ponies instead of humans? But it's for the best, i could forget that everyone's here. At least that's the only option that I could think of. .

"you ready sugarcube?!" Applejack yelled from the barn doors.

"Uh... yeah," I said through the microphone, than looked at Twilight, who's right next to Fluttershy, and the cutie mark crusaders. "I'm ready."

Well, here goes nothing.
