Chapter 1~ Out of Reach

-Tails' POV-

It was a beautiful day. The sun was bright, the warm air was cooled by the crisp wind. I was in my workshop, working on my plane and jamming out to the newest hit from my very own close friend, Mina Mongoose. She had given me a copy of her CD as well as a digital download code, and I had listened to it everyday since. As I sang along to the lyrics of one of my personal favorites, "Don't Let MeGo", I painted my newest plane, The Omega Tornado. It was close to being done, and that made me sad in a way. I loved working on it, it took my mind of off things for awhile. It gave me some time to think about other things, instead of the fact that I...

My thoughts were interrupted when a familiar voice said my name. "Tails?" I turned my head and my heart dropped, for it was in fact the one and only Mina. "Is that me?" she smirked as she pointed to my bluetooth speakers. I felt my face redden. "Uh, yeah" I said, turning to face my work. She giggled. "Aww, glad you enjoy my music so much. So how are you?" I finished touching up the blue steak across the plane. "I am doing pretty good, and how are you?" I answered. I stepped down from the ladder and cleaned my gloves with a rag. She sat down in a chair I had pulled out earlier that day. "I am doing amazing, thank you!" The enthusiasm in her voice made me smile. "So, I was planning on throwing a party at my place tomorrow night to get everyone together. Are you up for it?" This sounded great to me. I missed seeing everybody, and a party would be a lot of fun. "That actually sounds amazing to me," I said, and her face brightened. "Great, then it's settled! Tomorrow night.. we PARTY!" She saw that I was a little on edge, and she added "Hey, you deserve a break. You have been working really hard lately, a party will be great for you, I promise." I grinned. "Hehe, I guess," I said, and she stood up. "Well, I am going to head out. I have some stuff to do to get ready for it, but I'll catch you later, okay?" I gave her a thumbs up. "Yeah, sure," I responded. "I'll see you later Mina. Good luck with the preparation." She thanked me and started to head out. When she was about to open the door, she turned around and started back toward me. "I almost forgot!" she exclaimed, hugging me. "There, now goodbye!" She hurried out the door, letting it shut gently behind her. I stood there and looked at the door for a minute, still warm from the hug. If only she knew... I shook my thought out of my head and walked back to my plane. She was with someone, and she seemed happy. I couldn't tell her the truth.. or else she may hate me. I had to keep it inside and not let it show. Sometimes, it was hard to hide the fact that I was in love with her. The hardest part being that... it seemed that she was already out of my reach.
