The night was filled with the sound of crickets chirping. A small breeze passed through the air. A full moon brightened the otherwise pitch black night. Tails was sitting out on the front porch of his home. It was 2:00 A.M. and tails couldn't sleep. Too many thoughts were buzzing around in his head. He lit a cigarette and took a long drag. As he exhaled he saw the smoke disappear into the darkness.
'So this is it huh? This is my life, just sitting and watching days go by. Sonic always gets all the girls... even the ones he doesn't want. Amy, oh Amy, why are you always chasing after him? You know he doesn't love you... not like I do.'
Tails put out the cigarette and walked back inside. He sat himself down on the couch and laid his head back and looked at the ceiling. His own loneliness consumed him. His eyes began to water as his depressed mind continued to engulf his thoughts. He whispered to himself.
"I just can't do this anymore"
The sun shinned and birds chirped, signaling the dawn of a new day. Tails slowly opened his eyes and looked around his room. His eye caught a picture of sonic and him posing and smiling at the camera. He thought about all the adventures he had with sonic over the years.
Slowly he dragged himself out of bed and went to the bathroom. He placed his hands on the sink and looked at the scruffy baggy eyed fox that stared back at him through the mirror.
"You look like shit"
After a quick shower, he picked out a plain t shirt and some jeans. He sloppily dressed himself and stumbled out of his room. His phone started to ring. He yawned as he walked over to answer it. On the other end was sonic.
"Hey buddy whatsup" Sonics cheerful voice beamed through the speaker.
"uh.. nothing really."
"Right, well listen I was wondering if maybe you'd wanna hang out at my place tonight? I got some exotic bud from knux to try out dude"
It was tempting, but tails wasn't in the mood for being with friends. Or really anyone for that matter.
"Yeah, that sounds great but. I don't think I can make it tonight" Tails lied.
Sonic could hear the sadness in tails' voice.
"Why not?"
"I have things to do, maybe some other time"
Before sonic could get another word in Tails hung up the phone. Sonic looked at the phone in surprise. "Thats weird" sonic said aloud "He usually gets excited when I invite him over." Sonic took a minute to think and thought maybe he should go over to check on tails to see if he was alright. As soon as sonic got up he heard a knock at the door. He opened it to reveal Amy standing there looking at sonic with excitement and cheerfulness.
"Oh"
sonic sighed
"Hi Amy, look I-"
Amy interrupted him
"Hi sonic I thought maybe you and I could go to the park for a while?!"
"Amy that sounds nice but I really need to-"
"And maybe after we could go shopping?!"
"Amy please I just-"
"OOooor maybe we could stop for lunch and-"
"AMY!"
Sonic yelled louder than he had ever yelled before. This caught Amy offgaurd and she stumbled back in surprise.
"WHY CANT YOU FUCKING UNDERSTAND I DON'T WANT TO GO ANYWHERE OR DO ANYTHING WITH YOU. I DON'T FUCKING LIKE YOU."
Amy began to try and speak
"well...I-I.."
"WHY CANT YOU TAKE A FUCKING HINT AND LEAVE ME THE HELL ALONE? FOR FUCKS SAKE JUST GET THE HELL OUT OF MY LIFE"
Sonic slammed the door in Amy's face with such force that it knocker her over. Sonic was so angry and annoyed by her that he had forgotten about going to tails' house. He sat down and sighed. He put his hands on his face and tried to clear his mind.
Amy began to cry as she ran away from sonic's house. Tails was looking out his window when he saw Amy running and crying uncontrollably.
"What the?"
Tails muttered to himself as he rushed out the door and followed Amy. He ran chasing Amy for at least a minute until she tripped and fell on the hard ground. She didn't even attempt to get up and just laid there crying. Tails finally caught up to her and sat down beside her. He lifted her up and put his arms around her.
"Amy, are you hurt? what happened?" Tails said with a calming voice
Sobbing into tails' chest she weakly replied
"S-sonic y-yelled at me"
"What?" Tails said with some confusion.
It wasn't like sonic to yell at her, he didn't like her all that much. But he always politely declined to all of Amy's offers to be with him. Maybe this time he just couldn't hold back his anger with her.
"I-I always thought h-he would liked me somehow" Amy said still crying and speaking at the same time.
Tails noticed That her arm was bleeding from being scraped on the ground.
"It's alright, Here, lets get you home and patched up. You bleeding everywhere."
Tails hugged her until she had settled down, then pulled her up and began to walk her home.
End Chapter one.
