Chapter 3
Sonic
Sonic looked at his friends, who were endlessly talking to Blaze. Everyone missed her! Everybody loved her. But Tails then saw Sonic gawping at the lavender cat and came over to him. Tails looked at Sonic expectantly. "Well?"
"Well what?" Was Sonic's reply.
"When are you gonna ask her out? Seriously, Sonic. It's your seventeenth birthday tomorrow and you've been in love with Blaze for 3 years now! You can't just keep it in forever!" Being Sonic's best friend, Tails was the only one who knew about Sonic's love for Blaze. Sonic sighed. He knew Tails was right and he decided that he should ask her out sooner or later. So with that, he checked his watch and thought that it was time to go home.
"We should be getting back by now." The azure hedgehog announced. "It's getting late and I don't wanna be waking up all tired on my birthday."
And it seemed like everyone agreed, as they all said their farewells and headed off home. Except for Amy, that was. She pulled Sonic to the side, looking seriously pissed and said; "If I find out that you're dating that bitch, then I will kill her myself!" She then smiled sweetly. "Bye, gorgeous. I'll be dreaming of you!" And with that, she left Tails' place, leaving behind a freaked out hedgehog, a confused cat and a tired fox.
Blaze
They walked the rest of the way home in silence. But this was good to Blaze, she needed to think about what had just happened today. of course, it was all great and enjoyable, well except for the last part. Which had her most confused. What did Amy say to Sonic back then? Was it something about her? And why should she care? Sonic had said himself that he wasn't in love with Amy-so what was the problem?
She sighed, annoyed. But then her spirits lifted as she saw the place of residence where she would be staying for now. Sonic's home. It was small, but cosy and warm inside. Even though the place was a mess, Blaze liked it. And besides, her room was messy. (Well, actually it never was seeing as she had cleaners clean it everyday, but still. The fact that Blaze like Sonic's house was what mattered.)
Once they got inside, Sonic pulled Blaze onto the sofa with him, and took a deep breath in. "Blaze. I've been meaning to tell you this for a while now..." Blaze's heart was in her mouth as the azure hedgehog continued. "I, uh, I really like you and honestly, I always have. S-so would you um, well, you don't have to, but I'd like you to. I mean, I'm not forcing you but would you like to go on a date with me? I know a really cool restaurant. But like I said, it's totally your choice and if you just wanna be friends, that's fine with me but..."
He was stalling. And Blaze LOVED that he was stalling. She had no idea he felt this way for her! And now, come to think of it, she felt the same way too! She adored everything about the blue blur. From his cocky smile, to his caring attitude and his emerald green eyes. Ah, those eyes. So with that, the feline wasted no time in replying "I'd love to go out with you!" And she pulled him into a kiss.
She never had kissed anyone before, Amy would have gone mental if she found that out, but it was true. And her kissing Sonic felt surreal. Crazy. Intense. But amazing. She wrapped her arms around the hedgehog's waist and began putting her fingers through his quills. Once they got into the kissing more, they fell onto Sonic's bed, still making out heavily. And the last thing Blaze thought in Sonic's embrace was I love him.
