The Question
Author's Note: "Sparky?" Matt asked. "Yeah?" Sparky said innocently. "The rum is gone. Jack is ranting again, so we should probably get some more so he stops asking "Why is the rum gone?" But stuff that makes you drunk is gone and so I know you wrote something. Sparky pales. "Y-y-y-yes I wrote something." He stammered. *gives paper to Matt, runs off*. "Now what's got him all jumpy?" Matt muttered to himself. "Now let's see here…"
Floppy ears, cute smile, sweet personality. Tails once again found himself daydreaming about the rabbit Cream. He shook his head and concentrated on his high-tech computer. He was working on it and really, really, REALLY trying to concentrate. But the question that has been in him since second grade has haunted him to this very day, each time Tails getting shyer about it. Here he was About 5 weeks to go in fifth grade and he still hasn't had the courage to ask her.
Tails banged his head over and over on the wood table. The longer he had been waiting to ask, the more it filled up his head. Tails had less than 30 days to accomplish his goal and he needed help and fast. He got up from his chair and walked out of his workshop, with a now clear destination, he runs up into his Tornado and hops in. It was one out of two people he could vent to. He then flew off.
Mint was outside playing a flute on his porch when he heard a rather familiar sound of a rather familiar plane. He smiled and sat down his flute. He was delighted to see he was correct and Tails was here. He saw something was on his mind and walked over to talk to him. "Hey Tails! How are ya doin?" Tails cheerfully replied with "Good to see you! I have a rather… different predicament." Mint gave him a kind smile and led him inside. Once they got in Mint said "Go ahead, spill. Doctor's in and open."
"Thanks." Tails said as he sat down. "So, hypothetically, if a two tailed fox wanted to ask a girl out and he needed help, who would he go to?" Tails asked Mint. Well, I can answer that question quite easily. That's why you are here. He noticed the mood colors around Tails go from yellow, (for happy.) to white (for no mood) to dark blue (for shy) with red (embarrassed) to sea foam (busted :[ ) and hypothetically is really just secret language for the opposite, meaning they need advice straight. Mint knew this. "You aren't ready for a girl." The colors went to a very light shade of orange. "What do you mean by that?" Tails voice rose a little. "I mean, you need to be romantic, dashing, and a charmer. "I don't know how to do all those things!" Tails exclaimed. Mint winked. "Well lucky you because you can become the first and only student at Mint's school of how to fall in love.
Author's Note: "Huh, short. That means he is writing more" Matt said. In all seriousness folks, it was short because I am running out of time tonight but I will get a longer chapter out tomorrow. PEACE!
