Anon - [Nameless] [Untagged]

>Ughhhh...
>You take another sip of your drink as you slouch on the bar counter
>You are Virgo and you are feeling a bit down
>You down the rest of your drink in one swift motion and slam the glass on the counter
>”Give me another one...”
>the bartender pours another drink into your glass and then leaves you to wallow in your self pity
>You stare at the glass as you think about your recent drop of popularity amongst the mares
>And you let out yet another sigh
>You are unsure what the problem is, you have not changed your approach towards all the pretty ladies, but recently there’s been less and less takers
>not to mention some of your female friends have not been hanging out with you as much
>You lift yourself up a bit and take a big swing
>Maybe you’re just feeling somewhat lonely tonight, maybe this is just a passing down...
>Whatever it is, you’re not enjoying this
>and that’s why you are here at the bar, at a dead hour, just sulking and drinking your worries away
>The sound of somepony slumping down to the stool next to you shakes you out of your thoughts
“What a day...”
>You recognize that voice
>”Hexferryh?”
>Hexferry hears your slur and turns to look at you before scoffing
“Oh great, and now you too...”
>You give her a glare
>”Nice to see you too you... pissy bumblebee...”
>Hexferry gasps as you down the rest of your drink without really caring
>Now that you think about it, how many have you had already?
>Who cares, you slam the glass back down
>”Another one”

>The bartender pours you another one after serving Hexferry her order
>You stare at your glass
>You can see Hexferrys reflection in it
>She seems upset
>...
“I’m sorry...”
>You almost fall off of your stool
>You turn to look at Hexferry who stares at her own drink while blushing
“I should not have acted so snide, just not feeling that cheerful today”
>You stare at Hexferry for a moment before your intoxicated brain catches up with you
>”Ok, not offended or something...”
>And then you return to look at your glass again
>You can see Hexferry being reflected on it
>She looks a bit miserable...
>Scratch that, she looks very miserable
>You take the glass into your hoof and give your drink a swirl before downing it in one gulp and then turning to look at Hexferry
>”S*hick So, why are you feeling down anyway?”
>Hexferry glances at you while sipping her drink and then sets it down
“No, just had a falling out with a friend...”
>You rub the back of your head embarrassedly while trying to come up with something smart to say
>”That’s uhh... bad? Hope you two will make up soon?”
>This seems to amuse Hexferry a bit as you see the corner of her mouth twitch a bit before she sighs
“It was a pretty big argument...”
>And then she takes another sip of her drink and you turn to stare at your empty glass again
>Wow, she actually looks really down, you’ve not really seen Hexferry looking like this
>just a minute ago you were feeling annoyed at her and now this
>you smirk a bit at the humor of this situation
>Oh yeah, you could always try that to cheer her up
>”So, want me to make you forget all of your troubles~?”
>Hexferry turns to look at you as you wiggle your eyebrows and put on the best charming smirk on your face you can muster
“What are you-“

>You interrupt Hexferry by hopping down from the stool and striking a charmer pose
>”What I me- Whoa!”
>and you slip and fall to the floor
“Pfff”
>You glance upwards at the surprising voice
>Hexferry is looking at you with a little amusement in her eyes and a bit of a smile hiding behind her hoof, before her face returns back to normal and she clears her throat while turning back to look at her glass
“Virgo please don’t, you’re being embarrassing...”
>”Fine fine...”
>you can’t help but to feel a bit more cheerful as you climb back up
>you tap your glass with your hoof and the bartender glances at you and shakes his head
>You shrug and then turn once again to look at Hexferry who glances at you before looking forward and taking another sip
>”I think I’ll take my leave now, hopefully your evening brightens up”
>You hop down the stool but before you can take a single step you feel a hoof on your shoulder
>you look back
>Hexferry has her hoof on your shoulder
>You don’t even try to mask the surprise on your face as you look at Hexferry, who looks away
“Please stay, that is if you feel like it, n-not that I’d want to you stay, I mean...”
>You smirk and climb back to sitting next to her
>”Allright, I’ll keep you company honey bunny”
>Hexferry shakes her head
“On second thought please go...”
>But then she smiles a bit again
>You settle down next to Hexferry and lean your head on your hoof and stare at her as she sips the last of her drink
>”If you need to let it out I can lend my ear though”
>Hexferry sets her now empty glass down before smiling, but this time the small smile does not leave her face right away
“That’s no the only thing you are thinking of lending to me is it?”
>you stare at Hexferry in surprise which makes her blush deepen
“N-nevermind...”
>your grin just grows wider now which just makes Hexferry scowl
“S-stop it”

>You just keep smiling wider which irks her more and she spins on her stool to face you
“Virgo I m-Waaaah!”
>But the stool suddenly shifts due to Hexferrys sudden movement
>Hexferry looses balance and falls forward, right towards you
>you try to catch her and loose your own balance as well and the two of you stumble and fall to the bar floor
>Well, you fall and Hexferry falls on top of you with your faces ending up inches away from each others
>you stare in surprise at Hexferrys equally surprised eyes as you feel her breath tickle your snout
>and you wiggle your eyebrows at Hexferry, which makes her blush the reddest you have seen her yet to be as she squeaks and quickly pulls away from on top of you
>As you sit back up you find her glaring at you angrily with a scrunch while blushing
>But before either of you can say anything the bartender clears his throat
“I think you two have had enough”
>Hexferry opens her mouth to protest but the bartender returns to cater for other customers, leaving Hexferry closing her mouth back up
>Hexferry snorts and gets up, looking too tired to proof the bartender otherwise
>You get up as well and rush after her as she leaves the bar
>”Hexferry wait”
>you catch up to her just outside the bar
>she looks a bit down once again, not as much as she was at the bar, but still noticeably down with her ears flat and her antennae droopy as she hangs her head a bit
>Hexferry stops and waits fro you to continue
>”How about you come over to my place?”
>Hexferry lets out a tired sigh
“I’m not in the mood for your-”
>Before Hexferry can continue you interrupt her

>”I mean to have a drink, you seem so down I can’t really just let you go and sulk at your own house now can I?”
>Hexferry looks at you and then her expression suddenly softens
“Thanks for the offer Virgo, but I think I’ll just go home for today”
>You look at Hexferry and give her a little smile of your own
>”How about I join you~”
>Hexferry lets out a little laugh
“You’re always like this aren’t you?”
>You just laugh a little and give her a nod
>Hexferry now looks at you with an emotion you can not really place anywhere
“You’re an ok guy...”
>Before you can react Hexferry suddenly seems surprised at her own words
“J-just forget I said that...”
>And with hat she takes flight and flies off towards her own house, leaving you dumbfounded
>You shake your head to clear your thoughts
>Maybe you should just head back home as well and go to sleep
>As you start making your way home you can’t help but to feel a bit happier than you were before
