A/N: Here you go, chapter 70! I have been not updating for a few days and I wanted to update. This chapter will focus on Kyle talking to Vinyl Scratch. On with the chapter!

I woke up and Dash was still wrapped up in me. I will forever be ok with this! I wrapped my arms around her and brought her in closer and she opened her eyes briefly before closing them and nuzzling my cheek. HHHHNNNNGGGGGGG!!!! I just held her close and soon I heard her snoring and a wet spot forming on my sleeve. I smiled and looked at her before lightly kissing her forehead. You and your drooling, the only reason it is worth it is because I can hear your funny snores. I closed my eyes and soon fell asleep once again.

The next time I woke up it was a completely different story. Rainbow Dash wasn’t in the bed anymore and instead I had Stratus bouncing up and down on my chest. “What…do…you…want” I said in between bounces. He is getting pretty heavy for a 4 month old foal! Pretty soon he might be able to break a rib if he bounces on me! DO NOT WANT HOSPITAL TIME AGAIN!

“Come on dad, mom has breakfast ready and she wants you to come downstairs!” Stratus said as he bounced.

ARGH, fine I will sacrifice sleep for food. I am a glutton, shut up and leave me alone! I sat up, picked Stratus up, and then began to walk to the holy lands of the household….the kitchen. I stopped in the doorway and set Strat down and he trotted over and got into his chair. “Morning Dash, it sure smells good” I said before I walked over and sat down at the table.

“That’s good. I am thinking that you and that rainbow hair of yours should go explain what happened to Vinyl today. She probably is worried sick. Do try to be cool about it though, I don’t want you getting fired for yelling at your boss” Rainbow Dash said before she brought over a plate of pancakes for me and two bowls of oats for her and Stratus.

“Yes mommy, I will be good I swear!” I said to her with a smile and a puppy dog look. I swear she listened to my mom when she told her to keep me in line, humph. I ate my pancakes and they were great as always, and then washed all of the dishes. When I was done I walked out into the living room and saw Dash and Stratus sitting on the couch and I walked over and sat down.

“Ok, I guess I will go see Vinyl then today. She probably is worried about me. I’ll be home in a while, I said to them before kissing Dash on the lips quick and rubbing Stratus’s mane. I got up and left the house and took off into the air towards the center of town.

I landed out in front of the club and walked to the door. I opened it and walked inside. She isn’t even in here! Wait, maybe she is in the recording studio! I walked over to the large black door and opened it. Sure enough Vinyl was sitting behind her mixing equipment in the small room on the other side of the room.

I looked closer and saw that she was bent over the table and she had her head wrapped up in her hooves and it looked like she was crying about something. Oh shit, what in the hell made her feel like this!? On second thought, I am going to find out in a minute anyways….curse my niceness! I shut the door behind me and quietly walked over to the room and inside. She didn’t hear me and I knelt down beside her. Please don’t punch me when I do this! I put my hand on her shoulder and patted it lightly.

She immediately looked up and then to me. I was right, she was crying. “K-Kyle? Is that *hic* you?” she said to me between sobs. I nodded and she surprised me by reaching over and hugging me tightly. Not sure if should be D’AWWWW or AWWW! “I thought that you were killed while out there! I-I never should have *hic* let you go out there *hic* alone.”

“I just patted her back. She feels horrible about this! It is a little weird because all of the fics I read back home with her in it she was portrayed as a badass that rarely ever cried! “It’s ok, I am fine and you shouldn’t worry about me that much. I can take care of myself….even if I get broken bones and cuts from doing it” I said to her trying to be funny.

“I am sorry for making you go. I *hic* nev *hic* never *hic* wanted you to go *hic*” Vinyl said to me with her face in the crook of my neck.

Ok, I am getting really bummed out now! She is making me want to douse out the flames of those nursing homes I set fire to earlier! I pulled her away from me and looked at her dead in the eyes “Look, I’m fine now you see? I know you feel terrible, but you do not have to, I am here and i am ready to continue on with my job here.”

“But” Vinyl tried to continue, but I cut her off.

One does not simply stop a moving speech of mine halfway through it Vinyl. “No butts” I said pointing to mine to try and make her lighten up a little. It worked; she let out a little giggle. I smiled and continued “I came by here to tell you that I was fine. I talked to Twilight yesterday when I was there with RD and I wrote a letter to your producer and said that there were major complications in getting there and I sent him the record through Twilight. He got the stuff even though I did not deliver it. He will be sending a letter to you in the mail soon. Feel any better now?” I said to her pleadingly.

She wiped her crimson eyes dry and looked at me smiling “yeah, sorry you had to see that. Everything around here has been going to shit since you left. And it is not just club related.”

Hold the metaphorical phone for a minute……did she just say SHIT!? Butbutbut, I thought that ponies were physically unable to say profanity! Quick I need to get back to my Delorian and go 88 mph in reverse! *runs away screaming* “Ok, now that we have one of those problems fixed. What else has been happening?” I said to her with a reassuring smile.

“Well, while you were gone there was this grey mare that walked in and I got a look at her and she was the most gorgeous mare I have ever seen before. I wanted to go down and talk to her, but she got confronted by a stallion before I could get to her. I saw that he was drunk and trying to put the moves on her and the mare kept saying no, but the stallion kept pushing it. I was watching from behind and I finally snapped when he motioned to grab her. I turned him around and hit him square in the cheek and he fell on the ground. The mare looked at me and I told her that he was a drunk that only wanted sex” Vinyl said to me.

“I sat down at the table with her and I could see that she was feeling a little more at ease now. I started up a conversation about music, seeing as she had a treble cleft cutie mark and she told me that she was the cellist for the Equestrian Orchestra. I knew then that she was a high class pony and I was beginning to feel like she wouldn’t even want to be friends, but I continued talking to her. She started talking about how different this type of music sounded compared to other things that she had heard, and I told her that it’s because it isn’t meant to be like the other music. I told her that real music comes from the heart and that this is my music, and she smiled at me. She then told me that she would come back sometime and she left. I never felt better in all of my life” Vinyl concluded with a smile.

Brain status report on all of the new information I have been assaulted with. *mumbled incoherent garble* fruits and peas. I smiled at her “So you’re saying that you like her. It seems like she is comfortable around you when you started to talk to her, so she kind of likes you as well. Are you going to try to get closer with her?” I said to her with a grin. D’AWWWW just like in so many stories I read with her in it!

“Actually that is another thing I wanted to talk to you about. You seem to know how to get ponies to like you. You are even sleeping with one of the most popular ponies in Ponyville. Not to mention you helped Shadow Breeze get with Fluttershy. Do you think you can help me get her to like me?” the white unicorn said to me with a smile.

I clutched my chest and could feel my heart practically stop from hearing what I just did. HNNNNNNGGGG, she knows about me and RD going at it!? She knows that I was helping Shadow get with Fluttershy!? WHAT ELSE DOES SHE KNOW ABOUT ME!?!?! I feel like I should just walk out of this room right now and fly straight into the sun! “You know that much? I will help you, I am always glad to help. Just let me know when you need it, you know where I live and everything” I said to her with a smile.

“Thanks, by the way, Lyra came in two nights ago looking for you. She seemed really interested in talking to you. She hangs out on the bench under the tree across the street all the time, she wants you to talk to her sometime” Vinyl said to me.

NO more matchmaking! If she wants me to help with her and Bon Bon, I am going to explode! “Ok, maybe she is out there now and I can get this over with. I’ll see you for work tomorrow ok?” I said as I began walking back to the large black door.

“Hey wait” Vinyl called out to me.

I turned around and she tossed a bag towards me. I caught it and looked at her with confusion.

“There is your bonus with a little extra, you went through a lot of shit out there and you more than deserve it. There is 1000 bits there. Now get out of here, I have to finish working” She said with a smile.

Two things that took me off guard, the 1000 bit bonus, and the fact that she said shit again! I turned around and put my hand on the door knob and turned it but Vinyl called to me again. WHAT DO YOU WANT NOW? I turned around and she looked at me, her face serious again.

“Thanks for helping me out of my slump, I think you are pretty cool and I would’ve felt horrible if something really did happen to you” Vinyl said to me.

“No problem, that’s what friends are for” I said before walking out of the room. I closed the door and left the club and saw that Lyra was indeed sitting on the bench across the street. She was doing that weird trademark sit of hers and to be honest she reminded me of Sad Keanu Reeves sitting on the bench.

I sighed and walked over to her and sat down next to her. She turned her head and smiled widely at me. Oh sweet Jesus, what have I gotten myself into!?

[d]A/N: There you go an interesting chapter that will hopefully give you a little clue as to what I am going to be doing for a few chapters to come. If you guessed right, than good, but to those who didn’t I am doing a few chapters of Kyle interacting with the other ponies of Ponyville. I need to go now, Easter calls me![/d]
