>It's a chilly winter day
>You sit relaxing on the couch
>Ponyville television is pretty shitty but it's better than nothing
>You work at the bakery making all sorts of wonderful pastries for the kind (HA!) citizens of ponyville
>Mrs. Cake is like a fucking slave driver
>All kind on the outside but a demon when she's out of sight
>At least you scored a few days off
>Your room mate's a Dj for some of the local clubs
>DJ Ponthree or some shit like that
>Always was more of a rock person yourself
>Not that you hate electronic...
>Just not your style
>You hear the door unlocking
>That'd be her
"Hey Scratch!"
>She walks in shacking off the snow covering her coat
>"What are you doing home? I thought Mrs. Cake had your ass in a cage in the back of her shop."
"I got some time off."
>"Rad."
>She takes a seat next to you and throws a blanket over herself
>"I don't know how you watch this crap."
>She points her hoof at the television
>"I mean, sometimes there's good programs on during the morning. But that's just cartoons for the kids."
"I don't really know what I want to do... After working for so long I just feel drained you know?"
>She seems to shiver under the blanket
>"Yeah I get you, Sometimes you just need to mellow out and relax."
>You glance over to her
>You swear she shivers from the cold
"I don't get how you ponies are always cold when you're covered in fur."
>She rolls her eyes
>"Feel free to share some of that body heat..."
"And get my ass all wet and cold?"
>"Anon...."
>She practically growls at you
>Fucking moody ass horse...
>You get up and start walking towards her room
>"Wai- Where are you going?"
>Grabbing the blankets off of her bed you return to the couch
>"Anon what are yo-"
>You bury her in cloth
>"MUUUPHHH MUMUMHHH!"
>Her electric blue man pops out from the pile of blankets that's now taking up most of the couch
>You chuckle to yourself before sitting back down
>The scrunch level is off the charts
>"Jackass."
"Hey, You're warm now right?
>You pat her head
>She pulls herself free of the cloth sarcophagus
>Normally after said situation you could expect to get slapped across the face
>This is not the case
"Scratch?"
>"Anon..."
>"Tell you what... It's around dinner time right? Wanna get a meal together?"
"Are you... Are you asking me on a date after I assaulted you with every blanket you own?"
>"I'm doing this wrong aren't I? I'm sorry I've never done this before. I have no idea what I'-"
"Relax."
>"It's just that, Everypony sees me as a charismatic talkative pony... But it's all just a stage act. Off stage I'm really awkward when it comes to things like this."

"Well let's work on that. Come on and get ready, we'll be leaving in ten."
>She gives you a small smile and trots into her room
>You head to the shower to get cleaned up
>Might as well try and look your best...
>Not that you think Vinyl would care either way
>With a shrug you hop in

-Vinyl-
>You trot to your room and scramble to get ready
"He said yes!"
>You feel your heart jump with joy
>You were so sure he was just going to laugh it off and think you were kidding around
>Looking inside your closet you try to find an outfit
"What would he like..."
>Thinking back on it he never really commented on your clothing much
>Which is good because you have no idea what to wear
>You close the closet with a sigh
>No dressing up
>Just gonna go with the flow
>Grabbing your headphones in your magic you slide them over your ears
>Floating your brush over you begin getting your mane under control

-Anon-
>You step out of the shower and get yourself dried off
>Much better
>Getting dressed you walk back out into the living room and wait for your date
>...
>After about 5 minutes Vinyl trots out of her room with her mane tied back into a ponytail
"Heh."
>She looks at you nervously
"I like your mane."
>"T-thanks... Decided to try something different."
"Well let's get to it."
>You toss a coat on and head out the door
>"Where we going?"
"I was thinking about how funny it would be to make Mrs. Cake serve us... But then I realized she would probably throw me in the back and tell me to cook it myself."
>She smiles at the thought
>"Knowing her dark side I could see that."
"So keeping that in mind I decided on a small coffee shop near the edge of town, It opened about a week ago and I've been meaning to check it out anyways."
>"Sounds good."
>You glance down at her
"Don't you think you should have grabbed a coat?"
>"I'll be fine. Don't worry."
"Alright... It's a bit of a walk so..."
>"Anon, I'll be fine."
>You see her try to hide a shiver
>This'll be just great...

>10 minutes later you walk into the front of the shop with Vinyl curled up in your arms
"Fine huh?"
>"S-Shut up..."
>The coffee shop is fairly quiet given the time
>Scents of baked goods and sandwiches fill your nose
>It's a cozy looking establishment that's somewhere between a normal coffee shop and a restaurant
>A kind looking earthpony comes up to you
>"Seat for two today?"
"Yup."
>"Right this way."
>He leads you over to one of the seats near the windows
>Looking outside you see light snow falling around the dim street lights
>You let Vinyl take the window seat
>"I'll be right back with the menus. In the meantime would you like anything to drink this evening?"
>Vinyl speaks up first
>"Do you guys have Lemon Balm tea?"
>"Absolutely, and for you sir?"
"Just water will do for me."
>"Very well, I'll be back with your drinks and the menus."
>He walks away
>You glance over to Vinyl
"Tea?"
>"What? I like tea..."
"Just isn't what I thought you'd order."
>A twinge of red appears on her face and she fidgets with her front hooves
>You wrap an arm around her and pull her close
>"I-I... Anon..."
"It's a date. You're supposed to be having some sort of fun."
>"Is it n-normal to be this nervous?"
"Far as I know. Let me put it another way, would you rather be home alone?"
>"No! I mean... No."
>You chuckle
"Then you must be having some sort of fun."
>The waiter comes back and hands you both the menu
>"I'll swing by in a few more moments to take your orders. Let me know if there's anything you two need."
>With a smile he leaves again
>Opening the menu you see the many dishes this place has to offer
>Sandwiches, soups, pastries and salads
>For Ponyville It's got quite the variety
"Whatcha going to get?"
>"Thinking a toasted tomato sandwich and some of this."
>She points to the menu
"Creamy Tomato soup with grilled cheese 'croutons'. That actually sounds really good."
>She grins
>"Yeah it does!"
"Guess we'll make it two."
>The waiter comes back around and takes your orders before leaving you to chat some more
>Vinyl's staring out the window at the falling snow
>"I love it when it snows like this..."
"Really peaceful huh?"
>"Yeah. It's nice and calming."
>She leans into you and takes a sip of her tea
>"Mmmhhh..."

>The waiter comes back with your food and a warm smile on his face
>"Enjoying the view are we? Well here's your dishes, feel free to call me over if you need anything."
>He deposits the meals onto the table and you dig in
>The food's really good
>You make a mental note to come back to this place once and a while
>Vinyl seems to enjoy her meal as she goes back and forth between talking about her gigs and eating
>After about 10 minutes you wrap up the meal
"That's what I call a dish."
>"Thanks's for listening to all that boring crap about my shows."
"You kidding me? Your job sounds way more fun the the crap I have to put up with all day."
>"I do meet some pretty interesting ponies I guess..."
"Ponies and...?"
>You slowly pull her towards you while waggling your eyebrows
>"And you."
"Oh I thought you forgot!"
>"Of course I didn't! You wouldn't stop harassing me over not playing any rock!"
"Well someone had to say it..."
>"The posters outside told you what I'd be playing you jackass."
>You bring your face close to hers
"There were 4 week old posters out there, how was I supposed to know that those ones were new?"
>Your face is inches from hers
>"I-I..."
>Her eyes dart all over your face as she stammers from the sudden closeness
>You pull back a bit
"Guess it worked out in the end huh?"
>"Her face goes red and she nods"
"Want to head home?"
>"Sure."
>She finishes off her tea as you walk to the front and pay
>It's cheaper then you thought it was going to be
>Definitely coming back here at some point
>You meet Vinyl at the front door
"You're not going to make me carry you again are you?"
>"Was kinda nice..."
"Scratch..."
>"Please? you wouldn't let your date freeze on her first time out would you?"

>20 minutes later
>You barge in the door with the white pony in your arms once again
>She's still shivering despite your best efforts
>looking down at her she's giving you the puppy eyes
"No, I'm not carrying you to your bed."
>She snickers to herself before wiggling out of your arms and shaking the snow off her coat
"Hey."
>"Hrrrm?"
>You get down on one knee and pull her into a proper hug
"You have fun?"
>She responds by wrapping her hooves around you
>"C-can we do this again sometime?"
>You pull back a bit and plant a small kiss on her forehead
>You hear a small gasp come from her and see stares at you
"I look forward to it."
