Ch.5: cooking is harder then it looks...
 
>Mornings come to quickly....
>you lay there for several minute, before finally giving up on sleep and and opening your eyes
>the suns brightness blinds you for a few seconds before your eyes adjust
>you get up from your laying position and look around
>somehow you ended up on the couch, with the others laying on the floor still sleeping. All around them, there are party streamers, party hats, a empty bottle, and plates with some food crumbs laying on the floor
>you sigh and get off the couch, rubbing your eyes you make your way to the bathroom, trying to not step on the still sleeping ponies
>twilight has some cleaning to do, you'll have to help clean up later...
>you get to the bathroom and go onto your morning business
>afterwards you open the bathroom door and see the applejack and rainbow dash getting up
>they see you coming out of the bathroom and look at each other, they smile “race you” rainbow challenges
>applejack replies with a “your on!” and they start t race for the bathroom, you jump out of the way in time for them to miss hitting you
>the others are now awake from the sudden noise
>you walk up to the now woken twilight
“they always like this?” you say nudging your head towards applejack banging on the door, yelling “ya'll used your wing!”
>twilight sighs “yah, every since the iron pony competition, there always competing  with each other”
>you smile at the still looking at applejack banging on the door
>you turn to twilight
“So...whats for breakfast? ”
 
>After a...tulip sandwich, you and the six sit at the kitchen table talking about how great the party was
>not too long after spike comes down the stairs, he jesters you to come over to him
> you get up from your seat with a 'excuse me lady's' and walk over to spike, a smile on your face
"So, how was your dance Romeo?"
>he smiles back " it was awesome, I didn't tell her I liked her, but it was fun dancing with her"
"One step at a time little brother" you say fist bumping him
>he keeps smiling "so you want some pancakes?, I hope twilight didn't try to make you eat one of her tulip sandwiches, somepony a don't eat flowers"
"You can make pancakes..."
>"she made you a tulip sandwich didn't she?"
"..."
>"I'll make some pancakes, you can have the first stake" spike says with a hint of pity
>a few minutes later and spike kept his word, he puts the first few pancakes on your plate
>"anon, are you not full from my sandwich I made you?" Twilight asks
"Uh.. Well, um"
>"he doesn't eat flowers twilight" spike saves you
>twilight looks at you with shock then embarrassment
"It's ok twilight, you didn't know" you say before you start eating your pancakes
 
>after your true breakfast, the others started to head home, they had jobs and other things to do in the morning, pinky is the only one left, she walks up to you
>"so anon, ready for your first job at sugar cube corner?"
>you look at the cotton candy mare
"Oh, right. Today's my first day of work" you say getting up from your seat
>you and pinky make your way out the door not before yelling at twilight that your leaving
>you walk down the street going back to sugar cube corner, the streets are busy this time of day it seems, maybe you slept in more the you realized
>as you pass the ponies look at you with fear, backing up if you got too close to them
>your not complaining, your basically the odd one out, here, and pulse your taller then them so your even more intimidating
>if the boys back home could see you now...
 
>you and pinky decide to go the back way into the kitchen, in case you frighten the customers already in the place.
>opening the doors you see a pretty big kitchen, it looks like the ones from tv shows
>"ok anon, your in charge of making the cupcakes"
"I don't know how to make cupcakes.."
>pinky gasps the. Smiles " we'll, looks like I'm going to have to show you!"
>Where did that music come from?
>"all you have to do it take a cup of flower at it to the mix~"
>pinky gets a bowl with mix in it out of nowhere and pours flower into it
>"Now just take a little something sweet, not sour! A bit of salt, just a pinch!~"
>she dumps candy into the bowl, there's candy cupcakes now? Why not?
"Baking these treats is such a cinch! Add a teaspoon of vanilla!~"
>pinky spines a cupcake holder on her nose then flips a spoon filled with what you assume is vinilla
>"Add a little more, and you count to four,And you never get your fill of...~"
>she pops in front of your face
>"Cupcakes! So sweet and tasty!~"
>she bounces around the room
>"Cupcakes! Don't be too hasty!
Cupcakes! Cupcakes, cupcakes, CUPCAKES!~"
 
>You stare blankly at pinky, a few moments pass and you start clapping
"Bravo, pinky. Well I think I got the most of it, lets try and make some cupcakes"
>pinky smiles at you
 
>Mrs. Cake stares open mouthed at what has happened to her kitchen. There is dough everywhere, with pots and pans all spread out, and ingredients thrown all over the place
>you stand in the middle of it with pinky covered in dough and flower, holding a batch of your newly created cupcakes, you take a bite out of one and nod your head
"These don't taste too bad" you hand it over to pinky
>she takes a bite out of it and nods also " a little too much salt, but still edible, not like your first batch" she agrees
"Hey, you didn't say how long to put them in for"
>pinky opens her mouth to protest but notices Mrs. cake " oh, hi mrs. Cake! I'm showing anon how to make cupcakes"
>"m-my kitchen..." She mumbles
>you look at the mess you created and put a hand behind your head
"Uh... Sorry mrs. Cake, we will clean it up right away"
>she nods slowly and starts to walk out, not before saying 'my beautiful kitchen..."
>you and pinky start to clean the place, it was your fault after all
 
>cleaning the kitchen take a half hour, you and pinky stand in the middle of the kitchen, pinky making the cupcakes this time and you doing the dishes
>time passes quickly and soon, your finished working
>you open the backdoor of the kitchen and stretch, noticing pinky isn't coming out you poke your head in the door again
"Hey, you coming home?"
>this is my home silly, I live at sugar cube corner"
>no wonder she's so hyper all the time...
"We'll alright, I'll be back tomorrow"
>"ok bye anon!" Pinky waves goodbye and you start to walk done the street
>the one busy streets have fewer ponies now, probably because its late in the afternoon
>you start to hum the song pinky sang to you, you have to remember it, it's quit helpful in making cupcakes, maybe you'll get your siste-
>you stop in the middle of the road and look down, you forgot, you had to get home somehow, you where too busy having your party and twilight asking questions that you forgot that you needed to find a way home
>you start walking to twilights house, it starts off as walking but quickly go's into jogging which turns Into a full sprint
>you make it back to twilights house and go inside
"Twilight?" You call out
>there's no answer, you try again
"Hey, twilight!"
>again there's no answer, you sigh and go lay on the couch
"I guess she's not home..."
>you close your eyes and start to think
>how the hell are you going to get home? Could twilight maybe do a spell to teleport you?
>would it hurt to be teleported? Or would you just blink and then 'poof' your in your room or something?
>what would happen if she messed up?
>... That's a frightening thought
>well, no point in thinking about it now
>sleep overtakes you
