"Hmm… I'll just have vanilla thanks." Tails said while pulling out his wallet. He was stopped by Sonic's outstretched arm.
"Don't worry about it. My treat." He said, grinning. Tails started to blush when Sonic did not remove his arm. Sonic noticed and quickly snatched his hand away. He turned and walked to the small gelato shop resting on a nearby building. Tails could not help but admire the hedgehog's fit form, strong yet graceful. Tails realised he was starting to stare and blinked away, slightly red tinge returning to his muzzle.
'I can't stare at him! What if he sees? That'd be embarrassing. Besides... Staring is rude…' The rosy hue upon his cheeks deepened. He noticed Sonic returning and quickly raised a gloved hand to his mouth, hoping to hide the ever deepening blush. Sonic offered him one of the ice-creams in his hands. Tails took it, mumbling a "Thanks" behind his hand, before swiftly removing his palm and shoving the ice-cream into his mouth. He smeared it over his furry muzzle as much as possible. Sonic raised an eyebrow but did not question it.
"Sooo… wanna go to the park now?" Asked Sonic around his ice-cream. Tails nodded.

After an hour or so of walking they spotted the park. It was big, filled to the brim with greenery, and lay right along the edge of the harbour. Tails' ice-cream had all but disappeared, half in to his mouth, half on to the greedy pavement. They stepped into the park, or more appropriately forest. They followed a scant path and crossed the invisible threshold that marked a clearing. With the coming of winter so came the shorter days and as such an awe-inspiring array of hues caressed the horizon. The sun had discarded its extra baggage and so colours from pink to orange spread through the sky. They jousted with one another atop pale-grey horses enveloped in brilliance, competing for dominance of newfound land. The fight had connected them, forming a single entity of more pink than orange that was stained with rose petals and violets.

They strolled over to the centre of the clearing, not far from the waterside. They sat down in a patch of the flowers that spread out and over a nearby bump in the soil. The flowers were light pink in colour, one to match the sky, and they felt almost fluffy accompanied by their sweet pungence. Sonic was sitting a little too close for comfort, or at least in Tails opinion. His mind screamed at him to do so many things at once that he simply remained mute, watching the rolling ocean and the dusk beyond.
"Beautiful, isn't it?" Said Sonic detachedly, still gazing outwards.
"Yeah…" Murmured Tails. A sudden gust of wind rushed over the sea, collecting an icy property, then flew over land with a slight 'hush'. Tails shivered and pulled his tails about him, using them as he would a blanket. Sonic sensed the movement and looked at the other. He slid closer to Tails and placed his arm around him. Tails blushed fiercely, trying to ignore the contact but secretly yearning for it. It overwhelmed him and, not knowing want to do, he gave up resisting. He made a pillow out of the tail trapped between him and Sonic and quickly fell asleep, letting sweet nothingness envelop his senses.

Tails awoke with a gasp later that night. He scanned the area, noting that he was in his own bed.
'How did I get here?' He thought. 'The last thing I remember is falling asleep…,' he blushed 'on Sonic. He must have brought me home and put me to bed.' The thought of Sonic putting him to bed brought disturbing images to mind. He squirmed slightly. His squirming brought on another realisation, he was sticky. Tails blushed profusely, apparently now was not the first time disturbing pictures had come to mind. Shaking his head Tails got up and dragged his sheets off of the bed. He preceded a few steps before stumbling. He looked down and saw his shoes lying upon the floor. He had not realised that he was not wearing them and he silently thanked Sonic for the small act of kindness. When new sheets and blankets had been affixed to the bed Tails crawled back in, feeling rather snug. He made a mental note to take a shower in the morning then shut his eyes. His mind trailed off to other things, nice things, and the kitsune fell asleep with a slight smile sitting on his muzzle.
