Adventures of a Yellow Alicorn Side Story: Asking Out a Certain Hippogriff

Rocking the Way to Her Heart

It's 7:00 and the guys are just getting here. I have to tell them the change of plan, but Sticks won't like it. Strings will probably feel the same way. Oh what do I do! I thought, Silver stream will be here any minute, and I'm afraid of telling them the change of plans!

"Yo Yellow!" Sticks said, "Got something on you're mind? It looks like you wanna tell someone something, but you're too afraid to do it."

"To be honest," I said, "I sort of am. You see, I sort-of invited Silverstream over to watch us play, and after the show, I was going to ask her out."

"Dude!" Sticks said, "Rock on! You finally worked up the courage to talk to her! I'm proud!'

"I'm with him on this," Strings said, "You've been too afraid to ask a single girl out, and you finally did."

"You're aren't upset that we won't practice your song?" I asked, confused, "I thought you'd be angry."

"Chill, dude," Sticks said, "It's cool, we can do it another time."

"Now when will she arrive?" Strings asked.

Ding Dong!

"Now" I said, face distraught with fear.

"I'll go get her, you get you're guitar set up," Sticks said, "This is you're one chance. Don't screw it up."

Sticks ran upstairs to get her while I plugged my guitar into the amp. I tuned my guitar and got into position. Sticks appeared a few minutes later with Silverstream.

"She ran into a bird on the way here and fell, scraping her knee, so your dad's girlfriend took care of her knee," Sticks said, "That's why we took so long."

"As long as she ain't dead, everything is okay," I said, "Now get into position, we're leading with "Sugar, We're Going Down" by Fall Out Colt."

He got into position and picked up his sticks.

"1... 2... 3.." He said, hitting his sticks together. The song began, and even through worriedness, I didn't screw up once.

"Am I more than you bargained for yet?" I sang, "I've, been dying to tell you anything..."

And so the song went off without a single stutter. I fell confidence while playing, like a new man.

"I'll be your number one with a bullet!" I sang, again without stuttering. A few minutes later the song ended with a final rift.

"Next song will be "Dirty Little Secret" By The All-Equestrian Rejects" I said into the mic. I started the song with the basic intro. Again, another song going well until...

"I'll keep you my dirty little sEcREt" My voice cracked. Uh-oh. I started blushing horribly.

"Hahaha!" Silverstream laughed, "What happened?"

"Nothing!" I said, "Let's just head to the next song, "Addicted" by SImple Pone."

I began the song and played beautifully. It was almost perfect. But things got worse.

"Heartbrea-"

Snap!

Uh-Oh

My cord had just snapped. Live in front of the girl I like. My face was probably redder than an Apple from AJ's farm.

"It's alright, I'll play the next song with my acoustic," I said, grabbing my acoustic, "flank-182, "The Rock Show."

I started playing the first few chords, "Hanging out behind the cub at the weekend."

"Acting stupid and getting drunk with my best friends!" Strings sang. The song continued well. It worked amazingly. We finished the song a couple minutes later. This song went perfectly. I finally played a song without something screwing up.

"That was fun, wasn't it?" I asked, getting a nod from Silverstream, "Finally we have "Mare All the Bad Colts Want" by Bowling for Soup."

I played the first few chords without breaking a string.

"8 o'clock, Monday Night and I'm waiting..." I sang. As I sang this, my amp caught fire.

"MOTHER BUCKER!" Sticks yelled, teleporting away from the amp. Me and Strings soon followed.

"No!" I cried, "My 500,000 bit custom amp! Why now, why today!"

"I got it!" My dad said, coming in with a fire extinguisher. He extinguished the flames quickly. But it was too late for my amp. It was ruined.

"I'm gonna head up to my room," I said, depressingly, "You guys chill down here. I'm taking my guitar with me."

I headed upstairs to my room. which was on the top floor. I started playing a song from the heart.

IIt's seven-fifteen and you're already here
We're about to start the show for you to hear
I'm ready to play all for you
But I'm more afraid than a gaming noob
I want to ask you out on a date
But what's getting in my way is fate

But that don't bother me
I'm better than most musicians will ever be
I'm not gonna quit now
Even though I feel I'm gonna drown
But that don't bother me
I'm better than most musicians will ever be
I'm not gonna quit now
Even though I feel I could drown

Your my soulmate for all of eternity
I can't seem to play the words you want to hear
Life is becoming a challenge
I feel as though I could lose my balance
I just want to be more than friends now
But life hit me in the eyes ka-pow!

So take me by the hand
We could be more than friends
Do you wanna hang out
You'll say yes, I doubt

"Yellow?" A female voice asked, "What was that?"

"N-nothing!" I said, my face turning red. She heard my song!

"Yellow," She said, "Can I ask you something?"

"S-sure!" I said.

"Do you... like me?" She asked, her face turning red.

"U-um..." I said. Be honest! My brain told me.

"Y-yes," I said, "Yes I do, but I've been too afraid to tell you."

"Thank you're for being honest," She said, "And I'll meet you Friday at 6:00. Don't be late! Bye!"

And with that she left.

"Yes!" I exclaimed. I just scored a date with Silverstream!

Author's Note

And so the relationship begins! I took something from chapter four of Adventures of a Yellow Alicorn Book One: Crystal Fate and turned it into a story. I hope you enjoyed this story and I'll go back to my hole.
