48. First Day at Club Pon-3

A/N: there will be no morning chapter this chapter this chapter, but there will be a recap of the morning’s events. I am going to be hoping that you find the job at the club funny. I am going to try to make it very funny, because I will tell you in the chapter itself. I don’t want to keep you, on with the chapter!

The day has been going by so fast! This morning was pretty good, Rainbow Dash’s belly got bigger still, and we said by Friday-early Saturday morning we should be expecting it to happen. *fanboy squeal* Do you see what I did there? I spent the whole morning and afternoon hanging out with Rainbow because I was going to be gone for 4 hours, it only seemed right. HARUMPH, I have a job again. I can live with this one though, I like the idea of being a bartender. WAIT, I AM TOO YOUNG TO WORK BEHIND A BAR COUNTER! Oh wait I’m ok, there is no age law for me here, they apparently think I am over the age to do so, but I’m not! But I will just accept and take on this new responsibility. Yippie!

It was 4:00 and I was getting ready for my shift to begin. I got my hair spiked up and took a shower. Cleanliness…check. Then I grabbed my laptop and made sure that it was still working, it was. Creepy ass laptop that runs forever…check. I made sure that I looked presentable. Looking fly with my white boy swag…….sort of to not check. I was ready, I kissed Rainbow on the cheek and told her that I’d see her later after my shift ended ad then I left. Kissing my lover goodbye…..all of my check!

I began to walk down to the club. It was already a little dark outside and I was a little chilly. It was only 45 degrees outside today and I was kind of cold walking around with just a t shirt and pants on. Shut up, it is cold now! I got to the club and took a deep breath outside. Whelp, here goes everything! I opened the door and saw that Vinyl was standing by the bar; she must have been waiting for me.

I walked over to her and she looked at me and smiled. “Hey big thing, you’re a little early. You got fifteen minutes before your shift starts still” she said to me.

“I decided to come in early, maybe get a look at all of the drinks that I have to memorize. Do you know my name by any chance, cause you keep calling me big thing?” I said to her. She better get to know my name soon, or else I am forever going to be known as…big thing around this club!

Sure I know your name, it’s Kyle. But you always get that stupid look on your face when I call you ‘big thing’ so I keep calling you it, I get a kick out of it” she replied to me.

“Ok, at least you know it. I am going to go over now and start to look over the bottles, what are you going to do if you need me?” I asked her. I sure to hell hope she doesn’t call me ‘big thing’ over the loudspeakers, I would probably feint……or die again!

“I will call you over the loudspeakers, but don’t worry it will be by your real name. Now I have been working a little since I saw you yesterday on my equipment with some new sounds, tonight I am going to play them for you on my first break, I want you to tell me how they sound ok?” she said to me.

Phew, safe. “Ok, I’ll be over here” I said to her.

She smiled at me and I walked behind the counter of the bar and immediately felt like one of those guys from a movie that always wash the glasses and ask ‘what’ll ya have’. Not sure if should be happy I’m near all this alcohol or sad, on second thought….I’m both. Another reason I am sad is because the ponies here have alcohol, I thought they were so innocent! I guess I was wrong!

I started to look over the bottles and started to get the location of them all down. The vodka was all located in one area, the rum in another, and so on. I got it all down in my noodle and then began to wash the dishes. Now if only I had a cigar in my mouth, I’d look like one of those mafia bartenders! Brilliant!

I finished washing all the dishes and then my shift must have started, I only can tell that because there were 5 ponies waiting on the other side of the bar counter. I turned around with a glass “What’ll ya have?” Yay, I got to say it!

“I’ll have some straight vodka of any kind that you have. Give it some ice while you’re at it” the pony said to me.

“You got it” I said to him. He was a medium sized stallion that was light blue with a grey mane. I walked over to the rack with all of the different beverages on it and grabbed a random bottle off the vodka section. I looked at the name as I poured and started to chuckle. I guess everypony that is famous gets their name on a bottle. ‘Vinyl’s Vodka’; not sure if her favorite kind or marketing scheme. I finished pouring his drink and filled it with ice and brought it over to him and set it on the counter. He handed me the required amount of bits for the drink and walked away and the next pony walked up.

He was a younger stallion and was accompanied by what looked to be two of his friends. “Sup, you all want something?” I said to them trying to be a little cool, they seemed to be like 21 year olds, so they were probably going to be pretty cool acting to show off. One of them looks like a scene boy! He even does the hair flip and everything!

“Yeah, it’s my 21st birthday today and my friends here brought me out for a drink. Give me some rum, I don’t care which kind” the young stallion said. The other two behind him both looked at him with a grin, which made me kind of happy. *sniffles* they are watching their friend become an adult, just like my friends did with me with that one day. I am proud!

“And for you two?” I said to the other two stallions behind him.

“Umm, I’ll have a Soarin Scotch, with lots of ice” the one to the left said. “Give me anything from the whisky rack, but mix it with some of what he’s having” the other one said. Ok, going to die tonight much?

“Ok, give me a minute to bring you all back your beverages” I said to them before walking over to the rack to get started. I decided to get the birthday boy’s drink ready first. I grabbed one random bottle off the rum counter and poured his glass. Then I moved to the stallion that wanted the Soarin Scotch. I finished making that and added lots of ice. I walked to the whisky rack and grabbed a bottle off and took it back over to where I was making the last stallions mixed beverage. I poured them both into a glass and then put all of the drinks back to where they belong. I walked back to the three stallions and they were sitting at the bar. I handed them all their drinks and they smiled happily. “That’ll be 15 bits”

“What, the drinks we got came out to 30 bits, why is it only 15?” the one stallion at the far end of the group asked.

I could just make you pay the whole thing if you are that interested, but you probably wouldn’t want to now that you know that. “Because it is his birthday. Think of it as a present from me” I said with a smile.

“Cool! You know, you aren’t that bad. When I first saw you I thought you would be a creep, but you are pretty cool” the stallion in the middle said to me.

“Thanks” I said to them. I guess I’m cool here now. I am so happy now, my life is complete! *sarcastic smile*

I went back over to start to work on the other ponies’ orders. When Vinyl took her first break she even came over and ordered something. I was getting the hang of this whole bartender thing and it was actually pretty easy.

The shift went by really fast, I was almost going to get out of there and start heading home when Vinyl walked up to me. AWWW, I want to go home! I don’t like listening to drunken ponies blabber incoherently and now I have to stay longer? “Hey Kyle, how was your first day bar-tending for Club Pon-3?” she asked me.

“It was fun. I got to listen to three stallions talk about getting into some poison joke a while back, and that made the time go by faster. I really like it here! I guess I’ll see you tomorrow?” I said to her with a smile.

“Sure, you look pretty beat. You do know you can drink a little while you work right? Just only like 1 or 2 though, we don’t want a flank-faced bartender running the counter” she said to me.

I see what you said there and raise you the lolz I give! “Really? I guess I’ll have to test some of them each night to find the one I like then. I got to get going now, I’ll see you tomorrow” I said to her before walking out of the club.

The walk home was cold, I was beginning to shiver. I made it to the house and opened the door and was hit by some warm air that felt amazing. I love this feeling! I walked in and saw RD lying on the couch asleep. The fireplace was lit and letting off a soft glow into the room and I was becoming soothed by it. I walked over to Dash and lay down next to her. She stirred and started to nuzzle my cheek. I picked her up and took her up to our room where we could get a good night sleep.

I was practically dragging my feet as I walked with her to the room. I set her in the bed and crawled in after. I wrapped my arms around her and she gave me a soft kiss on the lips. I returned it happily and then started to doze off. A few minutes later I was out for the night.

A/N: I will be posting a blog about what will be coming later into the story. It will be another voting thing and I want as many people to reply to it as possibru, because it will have a major effect on the story. I hoped you liked the chapter, I will work on another tomorrow morning at school. Bye!

Next Chapter: 49. Almost Time! Estimated time remaining: 8 Hours, 10 Minutes
