Author's Note

Again this will be in my oc’s point of view. And Twilight is a unicorn in this story too. Without further ado enjoy the story. It’s still incomplete so you’ll have to wait for other chapters.

Envy And A little Anger

As I wake up it’s all the same. Eat, drink, practice and sleep. And of course I get my viola and trotted outside to the orchestra and meet with one of my best friends Octavia. And I could only feel envious of her success, popularly, and beauty. It also pains me to see her with the popular Vinyl Scratch since they are marefriends now. It must be nice having somepony care about and love you every single day. And they are of course happy together so I don’t think I can tear them apart anytime soon.

As I trot to into the streets of Manehattan, I see a very big building where the orchestra is being held. Once I got inside the place was crowded with everypony talking or already in their seats. Then I started to get jealous again because everypony was just oh so happy with each other. Some of them were even with their special somepony and it was painful. I can only hope that I can get it together before saying something out loud that I might regret. Of course I had to hurry and get on stage too as I saw Octavia who smiled while waving at me.

“Alto, is everything alright? Because you’re not usually late.” Octavia said while setting up her cello. And she was right, I never was late unless I was sick and I wasn’t. So I gave my best fake smile to her so she wouldn’t know.

“Of course Octavia, I’m just a little tired from Hearths and Hooves Day.” I said still keeping my fake smile and doing my best to sound normal. She seemed to buy it as I also started setting up my viola. Once everypony stopped talking and got seated we both got into position and started playing.

As we were playing I could only focus on the audience as they watched. Some of them smiled, some of them angry, and some of them completely bored. But I only focused on the ones who were smiling, because some of them had their own special somepony to be with. And I wanted to tear every couple apart in the building since I didn’t have one. So if I can’t have one then nopony should.

I also seemed to catch Octavia sneaking glances at me while we were both playing. She had a frown so I guessed that she’s trying to read my mind or something like that which made me a little mad since it’s none of her business. Too bad I kept smiling so she couldn’t possibly tell what I was thinking. I know she’s one of my best friends and I know that she’s just worried but I think what Octavia is doing is futile. And minutes later we were finally done performing.

After everypony clapped and cheered at our performance. Me and Octavia take a few bow’s and head off stage.
“Well it looks like everything went great as always.” Octavia said as she smiled at me. I smiled back but only so she couldn’t see what I really felt. Although I could still tell she was trying to see through me.

“Well of course, we are the best after all.” I said while sounding a little more enthusiastic this time. But by we I meant Octavia, since she’s better than me. Because truth be told I still needed practice to do, but I was going to do it way later. But I couldn’t help but be envious of my best friend, because she had somepony that loves her and I don’t.

“Well I’ll see you later Alto, have a good night.” Octavia said as she trotted and waved. I waved back of course but this time without the smile. And finally I was able to be alone with my thoughts. But somepony tapped on my shoulder and I was about to get angry until I turned around to my second best friend Twilight Sparkle. And thankfully I wasn’t angry anymore.

“You and Octavia did a great performance today.” Twilight said smiling. I am also envious of her and how she’s basically a hero since she has saved Equestria. And has a lot more friends. But I keep those thoughts to myself and try to ignore it. However, her compliment of not just Octavia’s performance but mine too was very welcome.

“Thank you very much Twilight, I’m just glad I got to play.” I said while smiling back at her. And it was a real smile, not a fake one. With that Twilight and I headed back outside then went towards my home. We talked about normal things like the weather, hobbies, and books. It was very enjoyable talking with her especially when it came to books.

“So Alto, I’m free today. Do you want to spend time together.” Twilight said happily as we both arrived at my house. I wanted to be alone today but I suppose I could spend just a tiny bit of time together. I happily nodded as I opened my door for her to come in. Once we both headed inside, I started to make some tea.

“I’m making tea Twilight, do you want some?” I said as she walked in the living room while I headed to the kitchen. I have no clue what she wants to do or even talk about but I’m sure it’ll be fine. I could hear Twilight humming a tune and flipping pages in her book, which I think is adorable of her. After a few minutes of finishing up the tea, i put them on a nearby tray and set the teacups with water. Last but not least I put the teabags in each cup.

“Yes I would but only tw- oh you already did it without waiting for my answer.” Twilight said as she laughed a little. And I was a little embarrassed for it, but quickly shook it off. I knew Twilight loved tea and knew she only wanted two scoops of sugar. So I didn’t have to worry about anything yet. So we both talked a little and drank our delicious tea.
