You Make My Heart Go Doki Doki

Vinyl shuffled along into her apartment, throwing her bag down in its usual spot. Her sigh filled the silence that had taken charge as she took off her shoes, also putting them in the same spot she usually did. The midnight to morning DJ job had taken especially long this time, putting her way past the time she had estimated she was going to be back. Also passing the time she had said she could be late.

Her head was already hurting from the constant thump of bass that had pounded it through the night and morning, but now it was filled with guilt. Vinyl knew a certain girlfriend of hers was on the other side of their room, most likely unhappy yet again for her misinformation. And this time, Vinyl didn't see her getting off easily. Even though Octavia didn't show it to the outside world, she was exceptionally introverted and unsure of herself. The constant flow of new things that came from her relationship with Vinyl kept her needing reassurance all the time.

The door creaked, increasing the tinge that poked at Vinyl’s brain. “Tavi? You awake?” Vinyl whispered, careful not to force Octavia awake if she wasn't already.

A very awake Octavia sat at the edge of their bed, eyes obviously red from crying. “Hello Miss Scratch, do step into my office.”

Vinyl inched toward Octavia, leaving the door open. “I'm so-”

“No, not this time.” Octavia cut Vinyl off, “I won't fall for the same excuse again. Now sit down next to me.” She shifted, crossing her legs and patting the other side of the front of the bed.

“Alright.” Vinyl did as instructed.

“I love you Vivian Scratch, I hope you truly know that. I cannot say if I will be so enamored with someone ever again. Sadly it looks like I am not even to see the one I love so much, other than the times she is asleep. So, tell me Miss Scratch, why must I go through this much pain for something that should be quite the opposite?”

Taking her time to sit down on the edge of the bed, Vinyl thought about the best way she could keep her relationship with the one she treasured the most. This was the point that would make or break the relationship that pushed her to be the best DJ and person she could be. Even with her putting all her feelings through her music, it wasn’t something that could keep Octavia occupied forever. And all she could think of was to lay everything out in front of her, and maybe throw a hail mary, because what did she have to lose at this point? Everything?

“You’re everything Octavia. Every hangover, slump, and bad parts of my day are all fixed by one hug from you. Which is pretty frickin’ cool if you ask me. I need you, I don’t know what I could do if I lost you. Plus you’re just too hot to let someone else have you, I mean I’ve seen so much of you I wish I could like put a password on ya to keep it to myself.” Vinyl took a deep breath, “And I’m truly sorry that I’ve made it seem like I willingly avoid that positive part of my life. I could have done plenty things to help the schedule work for the two of us. But I didn’t. So, now all I can say, or rather ask, is if you could be apart of making it work.”

Octavia didn’t say anything for bit, and Vinyl didn’t hear the first few words she said because of how loud her heart had been beating. “...all on you, Vinyl, please know that. Even as cliché as it sounded, I think I believe you. This situation could have been vastly improved if I had spoken up sooner. However, I am glad you said the things you did. It brought me back to when you used to come to my dorm, flowers and those little bites of chocolate because that’s all you knew how to do. I don’t want that flair to be gone from us, you and I made this relationship something to be proud of.”

Yet again, Octavia had dealt with Vinyl’s mishaps with ease and amazing patience. Vinyl scooted closer and cupped her hand under Octavia’s chin, guiding her lips to Vinyl’s. Vinyl pushed her down into the bed, snuggling into the side of her and wrapping her arm around Octavia. “I think I have an idea. Something that I’ve been thinking of throwing at the music industry for a bit.” Vinyl said, her voice a bit muffled from her face being nestled into Octavia’s breasts.

Octavia hummed, “Do tell my dear.”

“So, with how much we’ve been away from each other and ya know, need to still make a living and all, I figure why not combine that.” Vinyl took a second to glance at Octavia for permission to continue. She got it. “We both make some of the best music in our respective industries in the larger, obviously, music industry. And the only way that could probably improve would be to combine it, right? Why not shake up all those hoity toity people that think they’re too good for anything that’s not classical, and make the haters of that stuff that listen to my music hate it so much they love it. Wait, that last part doesn’t really make sense, but I think you get it.”

“I do Scratch, I too am intrigued.” Octavia sat up, letting Vinyl rest her head on her lap. “Might I suggest that we take this newly obtained inspiration and build upon it in the form of a new composition?”

Vinyl grinned, “You’re speaking my mind, you angel. It’s going to change the world, Octy. And our relationship too. Are you okay with not just being partners romantically?”

“I think I will be more than fine, Vinyl. I suppose there is no way for there to be any type of scandal, seeing as we are already in a relationship.” Octavia commented.

Vinyl chuckled, “Yeah, ha, that would be something. But to be serious for one last time Tavi, I look forward to it. I can’t wait to spend what could be the best time of my career with someone who’s already made this time the best of my life.”

“I concur, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.” Octavia pecked Vinyl on the forehead to punctuate it.

Vinyl jumped up, careful not to headbump Octavia, “Alright! Let’s get this train goin’!”

“Yes, lets.”

This was just something extra I've had sitting around. I felt like writing some nice OctaScratch, because I'll never have enough of it. Please review and enjoy, I always look to improve the image of this ship.
