A boring night

Octavia rises from her bed and walks to the washroom, when she arrives she looks at her self in the mirror as she does this she hers a firm female voice yelling for her from outside. “Octavia dear are you awake, if you are could you please be a dear and come to the door for me!.”

Octavia gradually walks out of the washroom and towards the door, she sighs and puts on a smile before opening. as she opens the door she replies to the mare outside. “ Rarity what a lovely surprise, I didn’t expect to see you today, for the third time this week.” Octavia says with showing annoyance on her face as she does.

Rarity looks at her with a smile pretending not to notice. She replies to the gray mare “ Thank you dear may I come in, I know have been coming by a lot recently but, well I'm worried about you dear you understand don’t you.”

Octavia moves out of the way to allow Rarity to go in knowing that if she turns her down she will just be back later. after this she follows her into the kitchen. Rarity immediately looking in the cabinets for something opens them one by one. Octavia looks at her and says. “ Rarity if your looking for alcohol there hasn’t been any in this house since you took it all when you took me home from the hospital three days ago.”

Rarity turning around towards Octavia and giving her a smile replies. “ I know dear but you can never be to careful about these things.” she turns back around and heads for a cabinet in the living room she grabs the handle and starts opening it, Octavia noticing shouts at her

“Wait Rarity don’t open that.” as the gray mare says this Rarity opens the cabinet and is shocked by what she sees. she sees three picture frames in the cabinet, The one in the middle is a picture of Octavia and vinyl on their wedding day, The one on the left has a blue stallion and the one on the right has a picture of a black stallion. Rarity picking up the picture frame in the middle ask with a sorrowful look.

“ Octavia dear, could you tell me what happened to them.” Octavia looking at Rarity surprised by what she has asked. Octavia walks over to the couch and reaches for a table on the side with drawer, she opens it and pulls out a pack of cigarettes' and matches, she opens the pack of cigarettes’ and puts on in her mouth then pulls out a match and strikes it then lights the cigarette.

she inhales and a puff of smoke leaves her mouth, Octavia sighs and looks at Rarity “Sit. I’ll tell you how I lost them” Octavia looks at the picture rarity is holding. “Vinyl died only a few years ago to a heart disease, The doctors did all they could they even told me my heart could save her, but vinyl didn’t want my heart she didn’t want to lose me but if she didn’t I would lose her.” Octavia tearing up continues. “ 6 months is all she had, i Kept telling her my heart would work but she didn’t want to hear it, days went by and she kept getting worse and worse it was so bad the doctors couldn’t do anything so all we could do was wait, When her final days were approaching she wanted to spend them with me and our friends.” Octavia stopping as tears cover the couch Rarity comes forth and hugs her.

“It’s ok dear, It’s ok” Rarity holding her for what seemed like minutes, she finally let go. Octavia kept telling her what happened.

“me, bon bon, lyra, derpy, sherlock and carrot top were with her in her final days. she died on the same hill where we first confessed our love for each other, she said her goodbyes as she knew her time was coming, the last things she told me was. Octy you know i love you right, nothing can change that and never stop playing your beautiful music. She died moments after that the doctors of course where there knowing it was time.” Octavia now fulling crying looks at rarity and asked “ c-can we continue later please, i would like some rest.”

Rarity looked at her and replied “ Of course dear, i’ll be back tomorrow flutters will come by and check on you.” as Rarity leaves Octavia enters a deep sleep Only to wake in a nightmare.
