Prologue

It was a peaceful afternoon in Manehattan University. I was just using my Hoofbox 360 and playing Chaos May Cry 4. My friend Kevin was just laying his back at the top bed of the bunk bed. "So, who are you going to the party with?" Kevin asked. I paused my game and then gave out a sigh.

"Is it counted if I go to the party with my hoofbox?" I gazed at him and then gave him a sheepish smile.

"What? Of course not." Kevin shook his head. I returned back to my game and then pressed resume.

"Then I'm not going to the party with anypony." I heard some creaking behind me and then a loud thud, followed by hoof-steps moving towards me. Kevin sat beside me.

"Come on Pico, everypony has a date every Hearts and Hooves day party in this university." Kevin smirked.

"Yeah except for me." Kevin grabbed my controller and then paused the game. "Hey, what the heck?" he laid the controller just beside him.

"Come on Pico, you need to find a date. Every stallion in this dorm is out because they were too busy finding a date." now that he mentioned it, it is pretty quiet in this dorm. Mostly we get punished because this dorm is uncontrollable.

"Then why are you still here if every stallion is too busy searching for a date?" I raised an eyebrow at him, and then slowly reached for the controller.

"Because I don't need too." Kevin grabbed the controller. "I already knew who I would go with." Kevin crossed his fore hooves and gave out a charming smile.

"How could you be so sure that whoever she is will accept your offer?" I tried to reach for the controller again, but he just keeps moving it away from me.

"Every mare in this university always asks you to introduce them to me, remember?" Kevin gave out a mocking grin. I remembered all of those times, from first year of college till' today, fourth year of college. I swear that I could have earned one hundred bits for each time a mare asks me to introduce them to him while giving me a bit as payment.

"Damn that opportunity." I thought to myself. I gazed at his face. His blonde hair swaying by the wind, even though the windows aren't open. The smile on his face shined like Celestia's sun. His white fur looked like it was pampered by a million of servants, compared to my white fur. "Now I'm just being to descriptive."

"So, do you remember?"

"Yeah yeah, can I have the controller back now?" Kevin shook his head. "If you won't give my controller back, you might as well turn off the game cause I'm leaving." I stood up and then went outside of our room, leaving Kevin inside. "Nothing to do for a whole week without classes." I gave out a long sigh. I scanned the corridor of the dormitory. A tumble weed rolled at the middle of corridor. "How's that even possible?" I said to myself. I went outside of the dormitory, and then got greeted by one of the fellow fourth year college student in this university.

"Hey Pico, how's it going?" the mare greeted. Judging by her white fur, black mane, tail and eyes with a pi cutiemark just like mine. I knew that she was Pica.

"Oh, just fine." I replied. "So, do you need anything, anything at all?"

"Nothing, just greeting a fellow student."

"Really?" I raised an eyebrow at her.

"Yes." she gave me a sheepish smile.

"Really really?" she just simply nodded. "Let me guess, you're talking to me because you want to me to introduce you to Kevin?"

"Okay fine, you got me." she rolled her eyes. "I would like you to ask Kevin to get him to talk with my friend, since she has one of those lovey-dovey things towards him."

"So you thought that I would sell out my friend by just a simple greeting?" Pica nodded. "Sorry, but my friend doesn't have a price." I smirked.

"Oh really?" I nodded. She brought out a paper bag from her saddle. "Not even for some sweet bonbons?" she opened the paper bag revealing some wrapped up bonbons.

"Er... You think that I would sell out my friend for a paper bag of bonbons?" I looked away from the sweet delicious bag of bonbons.

"Somepony told me that you have a sweet tooth, and nothing says sweet like a bag full of bonbons." Pica brought a out a piece of bonbon out of the bag. "Come on now, I know you couldn't resist this offer." Pica said in a mocking way.

"You could never destroy my wall of will!!!" I yelled as I turned around. "Time to make this very important decision." I thought to myself. I stood on my hind legs and then raised my fore-hooves. "So left hoof for Kevin, and then right hoof for the bonbons." I gazed at my left hoof. "Kevin, a nice friend but a little bit cocky." I gazed at my right hoof. "Bonbons, sweet as the debts of Tartarus." I felt myself sweating. "Kevin, bonbons, Kevin, bonbons." I chanted. "I know what must be done." I raised my right hoof and then turned around. I took a deep breath and then then yelled "For Bonbons".

"Are you okay Pico?" Pica raised her eyebrow. I cleared my throat and then tried to pull myself back together.

"Fine, I accept your offer."

"I knew you couldn't resist the bonbons." Pica chuckled. She reached out the bag of bonbons, which I accepted using my mouth. "Tell him to go to the rooftop of building b at midnight, you don't need to go since my friend and Kevin are the only ponies involved in here." I simply nodded and then headed back inside of the dorm. I trotted back to our room inside of the dormitory. I saw Kevin using my Hoofbox 360. I tackled him down and then pushed him away from my Hoofbox.

"What the hell dude?" Kevin asked as he tried to get back on to his hooves. I took a sit in front of my Hoofbox and then laid the bag of bonbons beside me.

"Nopony shall touch my game." I grabbed my controller and then gazed at my game.

"Whatever dude, but still, tackling me isn't necessary at all." Kevin laid his back down back at the top bed of the bunk bed.

"Everything is necessary." I heard Kevin let out a sigh.

"What's in the paper bag?" I paused the game and then dropped the controller beside me

"Bag of bonbons." I brought out one and then opened the wrapper. I placed the bonbon at my muzzle, savoring its sweet taste. I picked up the controller again and then resumed the game.

"Where did you get it?"

"In a pastry shop." I gobbled up the sweet.

"You just went out of this room just to buy a bag of bonbons?" I nodded. I heard Kevin let out another sigh.

"Hey Kevin." I called out.

"What?"

"Could you go to the rooftop of building b at midnight?"

"Why?" I paused my game and then gazed at him.

"Too much asking for information, just agree to my favor." Kevin turned his back on me.

"Okay fine." he raised his right hoof for a moment and then lowered it down. I returned back to my game and then resumed it. I brought out another piece of bonbon, unwrapped it and then placed it on my mouth.

"Oh sweet bonbons."
