I need a hug.

Chapter Twenty-One: Offers

“VINYL! REDHEART! TUMBLEWEED! I’M HOMIZZLE FO RIZZLE MY PONIZZLES!”

“And I’m just home. Normally”

Luna and I had stormed through the front door of Vinyl’s house after taking a seemingly quick carriage back to Ponyville.
Before we did anything, we took off to the DJ’s house; or our house if you’d like. We were one big happy family after all.

I saw Luna’s ears perk up towards the direction of the recording studio. I couldn’t hear anything, but she could. Darn her and her hearing! It’s going to get me into a lot of trouble one day.

We casually started walking down the hall, before we both burst out into a sprint.

Stopping just outside the door, I could hear music coming from the other side.
Judging by the speed and bass, it was definitely one of Vinyl’s own.

“Should we knock?” I asked Luna, who shrugged and looked at me innocently.

“If there’s music playing, they probably won’t hear it” She suggested.

“Makes sense” I said with a smile and proceeded to open the door.

The doorway revealed Tumbleweed and Redheart dancing in the middle of the room while Vinyl was using her turntable and crazy buttons to make music.
Come to think of it, she still has to show me how she does that.

“HELLO!” I yelled at the top of my lungs, only for my voice to be drowned out by the music.

Red and Tumbles were dancing with their eyes shut and Vinyl was facing away from me.
In front of the DJ there was a glass of water.

‘Are you thinking what I’m thinking?’ Luna asked me with a smirk.

‘Sure am Lu’ I replied.

I concentrated on the glass and picked it up with my magic, rising it up so it was above Vinyl’s head.
I slowly started to tip the glass on its side.

‘Do it. DO IT!’ Luna egged on.

A single droplet of water fell from the rim of the cup and landed on Vinyl’s shoulder, who retaliated by jumping in shock.
I quickly moved the glass in time for when she looked heavenward and saw nothing but the roof. Shrugging it off, she went back to her music.

I let another droplet fall, this time onto her spine.
She shivered and looked up again, only to find the rest of the water come rushing down on her face.

Luna and I fell back laughing only to be jumped on by the wet-maned unicorn. Her electric blue hair was now flat against her face as she playfully hit me and tickled Luna.
I managed to look up and see Tumbleweed and Redheart who had stopped dancing and stared at the three of us on the floor. The music had stopped by now and all you could here were grunts and laughter coming from the doorway.

“Hey friends!” Tumbleweed exclaimed as she helped Luna and I up and managed to get Vinyl away from us.

“And hello to you too Tumbleweed” I replied, shooting her a friendly smile.

“Hey Tumbleweed” Luna replied with a shy smile. It was her ‘cute’ smile.

“Hey you two, what’s up?” Red asked, adjusting her pink mane and bun and putting her nurses cap back on top of her head with her own magic.

“What? Can’t we visit our family?” I chuckled. Redheart rolled her eyes and Vinyl nudged me with a hoof.

“Of course you can” Tumbleweed said with a hug.

“We aren’t really a family Tumbles” Redheart said with a sigh.

“We can be” Luna said, making all eyes fall on her “I.. Uh.. I mean..”

“What do you mean Lulu?” I asked, every pony had a curious look on their faces.

“I.. Uh.. I was planning on telling you all..” She shifted uncomfortably and scuffed her hoof on the floor. Her large wings ruffled slightly.

“Well?” Redheart asked and we all took a step forward.

“Well..” the regal princess swallowed loudly and shrunk back against the wall in the hallway “You know.. Princess and Prince and all.. We can make it happen”.

Now it was my turn to be stared at.

“Hey. Hey! I didn’t know anything about this; I’ve only been a Prince for a few weeks in total” I said defensively “But I’m down if every pony else is”.

“Give me some time to think about it” Redheart responded politely.

“Me too!” Vinyl agreed who turned to Tumbleweed “What about you?”

“I like it, I’m in!” She said with a smile and was instantly by my side, seriously, her warmth was seeping into my skin she was that close “I would love to be a part of the family with Jackson. He was one of the first to want to get to know me without trying to ‘get to know me’” Her face turned sour and frowny.

“I’m glad to hear that Tumbles” I said as I wrapped an arm around her neck and she returned it by tucking her head under my chin. I looked over to the couple standing before us “Take as much time as you need”.

***

Vinyl was taking the liberty of telling Luna and I what had happened since we had left.
Apparently Tumbleweed had gone and talked to Cheerilee and I should expect to see more of her, even more than what I would as being her assistant in teaching.
She then went on to explain everything she did during the days and nights. I’m not going into detail, but it was mainly: Gig; Drink; Hit on Red; Sex with Red; Sleep; Sex with Breakfast etc.

Finally she told me about something good.

My guitar had been kept safe over the time and Redheart had an idea with Vinyl to make music. Redheart with her base and Vinyl with her recordings of the drums and they had seemed to make a pretty good beat.

“So that’s why we need you and Luna!” Vinyl finished, throwing her hooves up and falling back onto the couch for added emphasis.

“So let me get this straight” I said as Vinyl looked up and sighed but nodded to keep me talking “You want Luna and I to play in a band that you two miraculously created over the weekend?”

“For the tenth time yes!” Vinyl said with a huff of frustration.

Luna and I sat across from her on the opposite couch in Vinyl’s front room/living room which ever you prefer.
The couch itself was new. A night blue coloured thing that sat three ponies.

“Then who’s the singer?” Luna asked.

“We all are! Jackson is the lead singer, and the rest of us are back up. So.. Whaddaya say hmm?” Redheart said, frightening us all with an unexpected entrance from the side of the room.

“We’ll give you your answer when you give us ours” Luna said for the both of us, which was exactly what I was going to say.

God I love her.

‘And I love you’ Luna thought to me with a small blush dancing on her dark blue cheeks.

“Fair enough” Redheart said with a kind smile “You shall have your answer by the end of the week”.

Today was Sunday, which meant I had to start work tomorrow at the school. That gave Luna and I five to six days to make up an answer for the couple.

“That’ll be fine Redheart” I said with a smile “And whatever you choose to decide we won’t be mad so don’t feel bad, just be glad!”

Luna, Vinyl and Redheart all face-hoofed, each to their own slapping sound. Vinyl’s was the loudest.

“You’re starting to sound like Pinkie Pie Jackie” Vinyl said with a shake of her head.
