The Adventures of Firework and Science Explosions: The Rise to Fame
Chapter 8
Previous ChapterNext Chapter(Author's notes): Alright guys here's the long chapter I promised. Sorry the last few have been so short. As a side note tell me what you think about Vinyl and Firework. It was really late and in my tired state I decided to get them together. Don't worry it won't be all hugs and kisses from here. There will be some problems in the future. Enjoy.
Fuse work upstairs for hours. He was mixing beats, recording beats and editing finished songs. He never once left his room and Lightning was starting to get concerned. While on the other hoof Vinyl and Firework would work a little then talk or joke around. Vinyl was amazing at creating beats. She got on Firework's mixing table and it was like magic. She knew how to create the sickest bass drops along with an amazing beat for Firework and Fuse to rap to. But no matter how hard she worked or how focused she got she would always get lost in thought staring at Firework. Firework had the same problem and they would just laugh at each other when they would catch it.
"Hey Vinyl?" Firework started to get a serious look on his face.
"Yeah Firework, what's up?"
"Well I was just thinking. The only reason we are preforming together is because your first band canceled. And I don't think you want to take us on tour with you every time you need a opening band, so how are we gonna have time for each other?"
"Hey I'm always on tour. It's just a couple times a year and plus I could help you and Fuse get the band off the ground."
"Well that would be great but I'd give up the band just to be with you. That's actually what I was considering. That way I could just follow you on tour so we could always be together." Firework had a nervous smile on his face.
Oh no. This is what I was afraid of thought Vinyl. If he is always with me I know I will be distracted from my music and that could ruin my career. Is he worth that?
"No. I-I can't have you give up your dream just for me Firework. Don't worry I'm not gone that often just ask Octavia. She's a nervous wreck every time I leave for tour. Good thing I'm not always gone or she would go insane." Vinyl laughed at the thought of Octavia loosing her mind.
"A-Alright.. I just wanna make sure we can see each other." Firework still looked unsure.
"Don't worry about it babe." Vinyl instantly wished she hadn't called him babe. She was scared how he would react.
"Babe?" Firework asked with a huge grin and gave Vinyl a wink.
"Ugghh.. Just get back to work." Vinyl had to resist the urge to smile.
"Hmm I wonder what Vinyl is now? She should be practicing but I don't hear any of that "music" coming from her room. I wonder where she went. I bet she's off with that stallion. What's his name? Firepit, Firenote, Fire... Firework! That's it. I'll look up where his house is and go pay him a visit. He needs to know how important Vinyl is to me and that he better not break her heart." With that Octavia put down her cello and made her way to Firework's house.
Fuse came outside right as Octavia was coming down the road and instantly wished he hadn't. He would have ran back inside but Octavia called out to him.
"Excuse me sir? Yes you. Can you tell me where I may find the stallion known as Firework?" Octavia wondered why this stallion looked so nervous as she approached.
"Um.. H-He l-lives next door..." Fuse mumbled.
"Well thank you sir. Have a nice day." Octavia made her way to Firework's front door and knocked. Knocked and knocked again but there was no answer. "Hmm well maybe I'll just have a peak inside." The door was unlocked and Octavia went inside to see if she could find Firework. She looked downstairs but nopony was down there so she made her way upstairs. She looked around and found the one room with a shut door. "This must be Firework's room." She opened the door and let out a shriek at what she saw on the bed.
Vinyl and Firework had finished working for the day and starting talking and joking around. They talked for an hour or two then Firework said he was gonna try and take a nap. Well Vinyl wasn't done with him yet. She pretended to leave but just waited on the stairs until she knew he was in his room. She then sneaked back upstairs to his room and quietly opened the door. Firework was lying there on his back hooves sprawled out. Vinyl thought he looked so cute when he was sleepy. But she was about to wake him up. She ran over to his bed and jumped on top of him. Firework woke up with a fright and before he could say anything Vinyl started to kiss him.
"Mmmm... Vin... Wha... Doin..." Firework tried to talk between kisses.
"Oh shut up and kiss me Firework." Vinyl said. Firework didn't have to be told twice and followed his orders.
This went on for about 10 minuets until Vinyl and Firework heard a shriek from inside his room. Vinyl freaked out and jumped off of Firework and landed beside the bed. Firework was still in a daze and looked up to see who had entered his room. It was Octavia.
Crap they thought I'm screwed.
"VINYL SCRATCH!" What in Equestria were you doing on top of that stallion?!" Octavia had a look of rage on her face.
"Well what did it look like Oc?" Vinyl said smugly.
"It looks like you went from nervous about getting close to him to very close to him!"
"Well um.. he asked me to be his special somepony and of course I said yes." Vinyl and Firework were turning red.
"Then you just decided to make out with him?!" Octavia was very angry now.
"Nice goin' bro. You guys are already makin' out." Fuse said with a laugh as he ran in and brohoofed his friend. Lightning was right behind Fuse and she slapped him upside the head.
"Shut up Fuse. Octavia has a point. Things are moving pretty fast between Firework and Vinyl." Lightning said giving Octavia a look to continue.
"Look Vinyl I understand you like this stallion." Octavia started but was interrupted.
"His name is Firework." Vinyl said coldly.
"Ok. I understand you like Firework but this isn't like you to move so fast in a relationship.
"Why is everypony making a big deal about this we were just making out?" Vinyl was starting to get mad.
"Calm down Vinyl let's go get some air." Firework said as he glared at the other ponies crowded in his bedroom.
"Yeah let's get outta here." Said Vinyl.
"Hey I'm sorry Octavia is like that. She's always over protective of me ever since I had some problems with this one stallion. She means well but can get on my nerves sometimes." Vinyl still looked somewhat mad but was trying to calm down.
"Problems? What stallion?" Firework looked concerned for Vinyl.
"I-It's nothing.." Vinyl said looking at the ground.
"Look Vinyl. You know you can tell me anything right?" Firework was trying to look into her eyes but she wouldn't meet his gaze.
"I-I know I just don't wanna talk about it. Ok?" Vinyl was staring to look sad as she spoke.
"Alright I understand. If you need to tell me anything don't be afraid to talk to me."
"Thanks Firework." She gave him a tight hug just to feel safe again. Firework kissed her forehead and they went to the cafe to get something to drink.
Fuse, Lightning and Octavia were left in shock inside of Firework's room as Firework and Vinyl left. They all just stood there for almost half an hour in silence until Octavia spoke up.
"Well I believe introductions are in order. I'm Octavia. I live with Vinyl. And you two are?"
"I'm Fuse. Firework's neighbor and best friend. Firework and I are the band that's opening for Vinyl this weekend at the Gala."
"And I'm Lightning. I'm Fuse's marefriend and friend of Firework."
"I apologize for my angered behavior earlier. I am very worried about Vinyl. She normally has good judgement and doesn't rush into relationships. But I've always protected her ever since her problems with one stallion."
"What happened?" Lightning looked concerned but was curious.
"That is not my story to tell dear. I have sworn my self to secrecy." Octavia looked very serious.
"Oh ok. Well maybe Vinyl will tell us." Fuse said. Again Lightning slapped him upside the head.
"Don't go ask her. It's serious. If she wanted everypony to know she would have told you." Lightning said with a stern face.
"Ow, ok jeeze I won't go ask." Firework said as he rubbed the back of his head.
"I apologize but I must be going. I have a lot to prepare for before the Gala." Octavia said as she left.
"Come on Fuse let's go home." Lightning said grabbing Fuse's hoof.
