Thank you for all the lovely reviews, guys. It really motivates me to finish chapters and the such, especially considering it's finals week. I honestly couldn't have picked a worse time to upload this.

(Friendly reminder that if I get more than 5 reviews on a single chapter I update early wink wink nudge nudge).

Just a note – please, please, please wait until the age of consent for your area before you have sex – ESPECIALLY if your partner(s) are significantly older than you. Even if you're fine with it at the time, there's a good chance that you will regret it later on. I have made some mistakes in the past, and I do not want anyone to feel that kind of guilt and regret.

CHAPTER WARNINGS: Pornographic video, swearing, mild homophobia, graphic sexual situations between two HIGHLY UNDERAGE characters (can be considered dub-con, due to the law of statutory rape).

PLEASURE

January 3rd

At first, Sonic despised the new guy.

He was tall and scary-looking, with a mean face and hands that looked like they could pulverize bone in a matter of seconds. It didn't help that he had a short fuse and was also a bit of an idiot, getting riled up over trivial things and constantly barking at people. Sonic loved poking fun at the big guy and laughing when he exploded and started screaming at the young boy. Tails constantly reprimanded both of them, acting almost like the pair's mother when they fought.

Sonic asked Tails quite a few times why the new guy was so angry, and every time she just said that he was probably nervous to be working with new people. Sonic supposed she was probably right – Tails almost always was – but that didn't stop him from bugging the new guy every chance he got.

Today was no different. M wouldn't let Tails and Sonic play outside, so while Tails made some hot cocoa, Sonic ran off to see if the new guy wanted some.

"Hey, Knuckles," Sonic yelled, bursting into his room, "Tails is making hot chocolate, do ya-"

Knuckles let out an inhumanly high shriek, grabbing his TV remote and hurriedly trying to shut off the television.

"What are you watching?" Sonic asked, curiously eyeing the naked woman on the screen.

"Nothing! Now mind your own damn business." Knuckles snarled, finally managing to shut the screen off. Sonic whined in disappointment.

"C'mooon, show me!"

"No! You'll learn about this when you're older. Now go drink your fucking hot chocolate, okay?"

"I'm only five years younger than you!" Sonic jumped onto Knuckles' lap, causing the teenager to let out a manly scream and push Sonic off.

"Don't do that again! I swear to Chaos, if you don't get out of my room in the next fifteen seconds, I'll throw through the wall!"

Sonic winked at Knuckles. "Maybe you will, but then I'll tell Yuda (1) what you were watching~"

The teenager paled, eyes widening in horror at the thought. "So, Knuckles, what's it gonna be? You gonna show me the video, or am I gonna have to run my big fat mouth off?"

Knuckles gulped, glaring at Sonic before turning the video on again. The woman was frozen on the television, eyes squeezed shut like she was in pain.

"Don't tell anyone, okay? Not even your little boyfriend. Dunno why a queer like you wants to watch this, but here you fucking go."

Sonic wasn't entirely sure what Knuckles was talking about, but kept quiet and watched in wide-eyed rapture as the teenager pressed play. The woman on screen began to spew profanity as an off-screen hand rubbed at her breasts.

"What is she even doing?" Sonic asked, brow furrowed as the hand moved downwards.

"It's sex, stupid. Thought you would know by now, considering you have a 'wife' and all."

Sonic flushed. "Don't talk about Tails like that."

A knock sounded at the door, and Knuckles quickly shut the television off. "What do you want?"

"Sonic?" The muffled voice of Tails came from behind the wood. "Are you in there? I have your hot chocolate, if you want it… I brought you some too, Knuckles. May I come in?"

"Yeah," Knuckles said, glaring at Sonic and making a zipper motion across his lips.

The door pushed open, light spilling into the darkened room. Tails stood in the doorway, holding a silver tray with three steaming mugs perched on top.

"What are you two even doing in here?" She asked, walking over to the couch and placing the tray down on the coffee table.

"We were watching some quality entertainment," Sonic said, winking at Knuckles, who looked like he was about to throw himself out a window.

"Oh yeah? Why didn't you invite me?" Tails teased, handing Knuckles his mug. The unfortunate teenager stared at the brown liquid like it held the secrets of the universe inside its depths. Sonic quickly fetched his mug and took a deep gulp, wincing as the chocolate burnt his tongue.

"Apparently you'd be too young. Knuckles barely let me watch it, and I had to blackmail him a little first. Isn't that right?"

Knuckles didn't respond, directing his gaze towards the ceiling instead.

"What were you watching?" Tails bit her lip, glancing at the blackened television. "Was it rated R? Yamaguchi lets me watch rated R stuff sometimes."

Sonic looked over Knuckles. "Well? Was it rated R?"

Once again, the redhead kept silent.

Tails cleared her throat awkwardly, grabbing her mug and sitting down beside Sonic, snuggling into the crook of his arm. The two sat there for some time, sipping their drinks and giving meaningful glances at Knuckles, who still hadn't looked down from the ceiling.

"Okay," he said suddenly, still not bothering to look down. "Both of you. Out."

"But Knuckleeees," Sonic whined, putting on his best pouty face. Tails sighed and stood up, obeying the teenager's wishes.

"No 'buts'. Out. Now."

Sonic stuck his tongue out but followed suit nevertheless, sighing as soon as the door was closed behind him.

"So… what were you two watching?" Tails asked, heading over to her room. People bustled by, hurried babbling filling the hallways as they rushed to and fro from office to office, arms filled with important-looking paperwork.

"Knuckles made me promise not to tell."

Tails made a 'hmm' noise, stopping as the pair reached her room. Entering, she put her mug down on her nightstand and sat down on her bed, stretching her back before flopping back. Sonic quickly joined her on the bed, lifting his arm so she could snuggle into his side.

"Tails?" He asked, voice slightly strangled. Tails lifted her head slightly, eyes wide.

"Yeah?"

"What… what exactly is, uh… Snakes-Eat-Xylophones anyways?"

Tails stared at him. "Snakes-Eat-Xylophones? What are you going on about?"

Sonic flushed. "You know! Snakes-Eat-Xylophones… S-E-X.?"

"Are you seriously asking me what sex is?"

"Shh! Don't say that so loudly! It's a bad word!"

Tails shook her head in disbelief. "Jesus, has no one given you 'the talk' yet? You're older than I am." She sighed and sat up, and Sonic quickly followed suit.

"Well… when a mommy and a daddy love each other very much-"

"No, no, not like that! I know that part." Sonic interrupted, shaking his head. "I know all about how the mommy gets fat and makes a baby or something. But… like, how does one actually do Snakes-Eat-Xylophones?"

Tails looked massively uncomfortable. "Well, you… I mean… You shouldn't worry about this stuff right now. You're too young anyways."

Sonic pouted. "Am not! I'm married and everything."

Tails blanched, growing pale. "Are you saying that you want us to have sex?"

The young boy shrugged. "Uh, I guess. That's what married people do, right? Make babies?"

Tails dropped her face into her hands, sighing heavily through her fingers. "Listen… like I said, don't worry about it, okay? Just… forget it. You'll know when you're ready, okay?"

"Okay," Sonic said, making a face and flopping back onto the bed. After a moment, Tails joined him, snuggling up to his side once more as their hot chocolate grew cold.

January 5th

Tails was mostly asleep when Sonic came bursting in the room.

"Wha-!" She yelped, shooting up and nearly slamming into Sonic, who had jumped on her bed in excitement.

"I'm ready, Tails!"

"Ready for what, exactly?"

"I'm ready to do the S-E-X!"

Sonic, who had been bouncing excitedly on his heels, stopped suddenly and started to pull his nightgown over his head, grunting as the fabric caught on his long hair.

"Oh my god, Sonic, stop! What are you even doing?" Tails screeched, hysterically grabbing at his arms in an attempt to stop him. She was, unfortunately, too late, and the young boy's bright-blue nightgown went flying across the room, landing perfectly on Tails' still ceiling fan and spinning it around.

The young boy was left in nothing but his dinosaur patterned tighty-whities, which he began to squirm out of before being stopped by Tails.

"Sonic! I thought I told you that you had to wait to have sex! You're not ready yet, okay? Now will you please put your pajamas back on?"

Sonic shook his head. "But I am ready! I learned how to do the S-E-X! I watched a video and everything!"

Tails stared at him. "You watched a video? Oh my god, Sonic, did someone show you porn?"

Sonic shrugged, not quite sure what "porn" was. "Maybe, I dunno. But I know what to do now, so I am ready!"

He then proceeded to free himself of his underwear before folding his arms and gazing crossly at Tails, who stared at the young boy with jaw loose.

"You need to take off your clothes too, you know! It's not gonna work if you don't."

Tails shook her head in disbelief. "Why do you want to have sex so badly? Can't we just… cuddle? Or even French kiss?"

"We've already done both of those," Sonic said rather pointedly, tugging at Tails' nightgown impatiently. It was completely identical to Sonic's, save the color. Predictably, it was yellow instead of blue. "C'moooon… pleeeeeeaaaaaaaaseeeeeee? Why can't we? It'll be fuuuuunnnn… And I'm already naked!"

Tails let out an exasperated sigh and batted Sonic's hand away, hesistating slightly before beginning to pull her nightgown over her head.

Sonic let out an exited screech, bouncing around in a circle on Tails' bed and screaming "I knew it! I knew it!" over and over until Tails had to grab him by his ears and stuff her recently discarded nightgown into his mouth to shut him up.

"Quiet, will you? Are you trying to wake up the whole damn office complex?"

"The only ones who stay here overnight are us, Knuckles, and some of the Japanese guys when they get into one of their moods," Sonic pointed out, having removed the now-soggy garment from his mouth. Tails pushed it off the bed, wincing in disgust when it made a wet slap as it hit the ground.

"Fair enough, but still! If someone walks in on us…" She stopped, eyes widening as she gulped.

"I'll be quiet, I promise!" Sonic whispered, grabbing Tails' hand and rubbing it in comfort. "Please?"

"Okay! Okay, just… give me a second." Tails pulled her hand away, rubbing her leg to get the sweat off before shifting her weight and starting to pull her underwear off. Sonic looked away, embarrassed.

"If you can't look at me, we can't have sex. That just won't work." Tails warned, tapping Sonic's shoulder.

He turned, staring her straight in the face before taking a deep breath and allowing his eyes to wander.

"We – we don't have to do it if you don't want." Tails stammered, squeezing her eyes shut.

"Why wouldn't I want to do it?"

Tails let out a short, barking laugh. "I mean, you know now, right? It's pretty obvious…"

Sonic cocked his head, sitting back on his haunches. "Know what? That you're a boy? Yeah, I already knew, silly!"

Tails opened his eyes, surprised. "You did? Then – then why did you act like I was a girl?"

"I thought might make you feel a little less weird about… us. I dunno. If I acted like you were a girl, then people might think you were a girl, and then not make fun of you for being a girly boy or sommat."

Tails sat back, suddenly embarrassed by the skin exposure. "I… Jesus, Sonic, do you even know how to have sex with another boy? That video you saw… it was between a man and a woman, right?"

"Well, yeah, but…" Sonic gulped, flushing a dark crimson as he crawled over to his husband, grabbing his knees and slowly pushing them apart. "T-there's still stuff we can do, right?"

Tails blanched, trying to close his knees and failing. "O-oh my god… What the actual shit are you doing?"

Sonic ignored him, slowly bending down until he was inches away from Tails' belly button. The young boy let out a slow, shaky breath, letting his hands fall from the fox boy's knees and pin themselves to his hips.

"Is this okay?" he murmured, brushing his lips down Tails' navel, pausing to let his tongue dart out and lap at the smooth skin.

"S-shit… yeah, uh, fuck. Yeah. Just be careful, okay?"

Sonic nodded eagerly, sliding one of his hands down to gently rub at Tails' thigh, allowing himself to lap around the fox's belly button before sliding his tongue lower. His lover's breath hitched as he reached Tails' crotch, hesitating slightly before placing a soft kiss to his half-hard dick.

Tails let out a low groan as Sonic huffed gently against his dick, peppering kisses against the warm skin, letting his tongue slip out at run up and down the small member. Threading his fingers through Sonic's long blue hair, Tails whimpered "Yes – fuck Sonic, yes, please just-"

The fox let out a shrill screech as his best friend took his head into his mouth, pushing the poor boy down until he could feel Sonic's hot throat gagging around him. Tears sprang up in the hedgehog's eyes as he was pushed lower, but he continued moving his tongue to the best of his ability. He had no idea how that lady in the video did this so easily.

Sonic began to quickly bob his head, trying to match Tails' frantic thrusts into mouth. His vision was getting blurry from lack of air, but he ignored it and continued moving, faster and faster, the world was spinning now and Tails was screaming so loudly but he couldn't stop now-

Tails gave one last powerful thrust before twitching hysterically, gasping as he reached his orgasm. Sonic pulled away, lightheaded and more than slightly dizzy. "Where- where's the white stuff?"

Tails was panting heavily as he fell back onto the bed. "I… I think I'm… too young… to… produce… semen…"

"Oh." Sonic wiped his mouth, more than a bit grossed out by the lingering taste. "I need to brush my teeth again."

"You do that," Tails let out a colossal sigh, waving his hand at the hedgehog. "I… I'm gonna go back to bed. I'll… I'll do you next time. If you want."

Sonic nodded, grabbing his underwear off the floor and slipping them on. "Do you think I can make the cream?"

"Probably not… you haven't hit puberty yet either…"

"What about Knuckles?"

Tails grunted a "yes", rolling over on the sweaty sheets and squeezing his eyes shut. He obviously was done with their conversation.

Sonic climbed in with him, not bothering to fetch his nightgown from the ceiling. He could deal with that later – for now, he wanted to stay with this newfound side of his husband.

March 23rd

Sonic hated flying almost as much as swimming.

The key word, of course, was "almost", and it applied less to the kind of flying he did with Tails and more to the kind of flying that involved barf-bags and ten hours of sitting perfectly still while your irritable adopted father yelled at you every time you so much as nudged him.

Whether this trip was actually worth it had yet to be determined. Sonic certainly didn't think so, as barfing on your future love interest wasn't a great indicator of good things to come.

Oshima (2) had laughed his head off, though, so it wasn't completely terrible.

The poor young lady (Rose?), however, was less than pleased when her "brand new skirt goddammit" was covered in half-digested airline pasta. Sonic had tried to laugh it off and promptly gotten smacked, so he supposed this was probably a lost cause, a fact that Tails seemed relieved about.

After Oshima introduced the lady as Amy, not Rose, (Amy Rose?) and purchased a new skirt at an airport vendor, he forced the four kids (Knuckles had come along for some reason) into a tiny Japanese car and drove for at least two hours along the streets of Tokyo until the unfortunates reached SEGA's main HQ, where Oshima had spent yet another 2 hours rambling about the new project. Sonic had barely listened to a word of it, too busy worming his fingers over Tails' thighs and suppressing giggles when he was rewarded by a smack to the hand and a hot blush.

After the meeting, Sonic was FINALLY given some food to munch on, considering he had effectively projectile-vomited his lunch on poor Amy's skirt. The simple rice and pickled radish tasted plain after a solid year of hearty American burgers and chili dogs. The chopsticks, too, felt awkward and stiff in his hands, and he twirled them around his fingers as he sighed and looked out the window.

"I'm sorry for getting so mad at you earlier."

Sonic glanced around, smiling sheepishly when he saw it was Amy.

"I know you didn't mean to, you just felt sick, but… next time, aim away from the skirt, alright?"

"Sounds like a plan to me," Sonic laughed, returning to twirling the chopstick. Amy watched for a second before pulling a chair up and sitting next to him.

"Hey," Sonic said, pausing in his twirls and tapping a bulging pocket in Amy's skirt. "What d'ya got in there?"

Amy blushed, scooting away. "It's none of your beeswax," she began to say, but it was too late. Sonic had already picked her pocket, and was examining the contents on the table.

"Tarot (3), huh? You a psychic or sommat?"

Amy grabbed the cards back, positively livid. "I said it's none of your beeswax, dummy. And no, it's just a hobby of mine, okay?"

Sonic grinned widely. "You should make a thing out of it, you know? Like, a thing. 'Amy the Card Reader,' or something along those lines. Makes you more mysterious and desirable, see?"

Amy flushed. "But being desirable kinda contradicts my character (4), doesn't it?"

Sonic shrugged. "I dunno. Maybe. I still think it's a cool idea. You should go talk to Oshima about it, yeah?"

Amy nodded, smiling a bit as she imagined it. "Thanks Sonic. I'll, uh, see you at shooting time." She stood up, walking away with a small spring in her step. On her way out, she passed Tails, who looked less than pleased.

"You know, you don't have to pretend you love her," he snapped irritably, sitting in Amy's recently vacated seat. "In fact, you probably shouldn't. Kinda the whole point, isn't it?"

Sonic glared at his lover. "I was pretending anything. I was just trying to be nice to the new girl, yeah?"

"You weren't nice to Knuckles!"

"That's because he's kind of a jerk. I was nice to you too."

Tails sighed heavily, resting his head in the crook of Sonic's neck. "I know. That's what I'm worried about.

"Oh, sweetie," Sonic laughed. "I wouldn't leave you for someone I barely know! Besides," he murmured, bringing his voice down. "I bet her blowjobs aren't half as good as yours."

Tails let out an inhumanly high shriek, slapping Sonic full on the face as he proceeded to laugh his head off before leaning in and silencing the rant that was bubbling out of Tails' lips.

(1) Takashi Thomas Yuda is the real-world creator of Knuckles the Echidna.

(2) Naoto Oshima was part of the original Sonic the Hedgehog team, who stayed behind in Japan rather than moving to America like Naka and Yasuhara. He was assigned director of the new Sonic CD, which would use the full capabilities of the new Mega CD add-on for the Genesis/Mega Drive.

(3) As part of the plot to Sonic CD, the character of Amy Rose used Tarot cards to divine that she was destined to meet up with Sonic, her idol and crush.

(4) Oshima wanted Amy to be a sort of anti-Princess character – seeing that Nintendo had produced so many games with love interests, Oshima wanted Amy's love of Sonic to be completely unrequited. The only reason Sonic rescues Amy in Sonic CD is out of the goodness of his heart, not because he is romantically interested in her.
