"I'm not good with names"
Little note: this takes place seven years from the current sonic time-line so everyone has aged by that much, therefore Tails and Cream are 15 and 13 respectively. Which by the age of sonic characters actually makes them about the proper age for such things if not older.
Chpt. 1—Date to remember
The soft sunlight filtered through the bedroom of a teenaged rabbit.
Rays played over the various surfaces in the room but none seemed to stay for long.
A small clock rested next to a soft bed.
The figure resting in the bed was known as Cream The Rabbit, her dreams were just winding down when the aforementioned clock sprang to life.
*Beep* *Beep* *Beep* *THWACK!* *ugh* "Cheese… what time is it." Cream called while slamming the alarm clock.
"Choo Choo." Responded the little blue and yellow chao.
Cream jumped while asking herself "was it that late all ready?"
She sprinted to her closet and grabbed a dress only to throw it back.
"No no that won't impress him, ill just look like a kid" said Cream as she grabbed another more… adult dress… she put that down as well.
The cut away was a great way to show off her aging body but then again her mom would kill her if she wore that… and besides she had borrowed it from Amy.
After a huff she finally selected a more grown up dress that would be Vanilla approved and moved on to getting her fur done which currently was puffing up on one side.
"Bed head is definitely not going to impress him" Thought Cream as she grabbed her brush.
(...)
The gravel crunched under her feet as she landed just a bit outside of Tails' house,.
Cream was glad that her ears had gotten stronger over the years, "Least I don't have to carry Big and Amy any more" she mused to herself while soothing her aching ears.
Cream shook off her memories of those days knowing where they could take her. She raced up the steps trying not to remember it but it was such a fond memory it surged forth too strong for her to stop it.
Amy sprinted forward hammer raised as Big swung his umbrella at Knuckles, moments earlier Amy had failed another attempt to convince Sonic to marry her.
Sonic was avoiding getting clobbered by a certain determined pink hedgehog while Knuckles and Big were exchanging blows with fury.
Now Tails was rushing at her… her friend Tails that was with Sonic when they freed her mother from Eggman.
Cream couldn't think straight but knew that she had to help Amy.
Before her mind returned to her Tails was running at her.
Cheese saw Tails coming and charged to stop him, the young fox dodged and closed the gap.
Feet away he froze and Cream smiled, she knew he couldn't bring himself to hit her.
The next thought of hers was lost forever as Amy yelled "Cream!"
Knuckles had managed to knock back Big and as he fell his umbrella had launched itself at her.
Cheese tried to knock it away but was too slow to reach the hurtling missile.
Moments before Cream was sure she would be hit she saw something yellow enter her vision.
Tails had taken the blow to stop it from hitting her but he now collided with Cream and pushed them both off the platform.
The surging power pooled below scared Cream so much she froze, both of their bodies fell through the air at a nearly alarming rate until Tails recovered from the blow enough to grab her hand and try to fly up.
The energy below was so concentrated it was liquid and if anything touched it so would it, or them in this case.
They slowed but it wouldn't be fast enough, Cream found herself again and flapped her ears as fast as possible to help, they stopped a good four yards above the searing energy and both flew up towards the platform.
(...)
The door opened and Tails stood their, "Hi Cream" he said.
Her memory had taken a split second to run its course but the after effect was just as it was all those years ago, she rushed forward and kissed Tails deep and passionately.
"Crea…" was all Tails could manage to say before his brain could comprehend the embrace.
The world melted for both of them, the soft lips of each other sealing away everything else.
They broke off from each other and Cream looked up at Tails' face and murmured "I'm sorry."
Tails looked Cream straight in the face and wonders ran thought his head.
"Say something" he screamed in his head.
"If this is the start of the date I can't imagine how good this is going to get."
He immediately hated himself for saying it and saw as Cream raised her hand.
This was followed by a light punch from Cream who was still nestling herself in his arms.

*Alright here goes the first chapter for the re-write, hope the new spacing and added depth are to everyone's liking. Small little thing i'm going to try is putting in personal comments about the story in these notes. Nothing much for this chapter other then I hope somebody caught the Sonic Heroes reference in this chapter, the whole power plant and Team Sonic and Team Rose Thing.
