Chapter 6

Do I like her?

By Crysal

"You won't tell them, right?" The blue hedgehog said, the hint of fear in his voice still apparent. He was sitting with his brother in the living room, which was in the very middle of the house. The house, of course, looked more like a Condo of some sort, since it only had one floor, and was made mostly of polished wood, except for the kitchen and bathrooms, which had tiles. They got this house a while after Eggman blew up their first one with his "Egg bomb". The house had rugs in ordinary places, like the living room, of course. The living room had two chairs and a couch, which were all facing torwards eachother, and were all made of leather. The cobalt hedgehog was sitting on the edge of the couch, while the orange vulpine was sitting father-style in the chair nearest to him.

"Don't worry, I won't. As long as you don't say anything about me and Tina." The orange kitsune blackmailed. He had put them both at an impass, in which one can not embarrass the other without embarrasing themself.

"Tina? You know her name?" The blue hedgehog said, that same mischevious grin forming on his face. "I guess you really do like her."

The orange kitsune blushed again. "I so do not!" He said, a bit angry at his brother's assumption. "She just snuck up behind me one day and greeted me with her name. We don't have a relationship like that!"

"Sure you don't. So, how did you know I liked... Amy?" The blue hedgehog said again, a blush forming on his furless cheeks. He twiddled his fingers.

"Uhm... You mumble about her in your sleep?" The orange kitsune said, a sheepish grin on his face.

The cerulean hedgehog blinked. "I do?" He asked, a bit dumbfounded at the kitsune's statement. "Wait a second... Did you read my journal?" The hedgehog asked, the fear in his eyes replaced by anger.

The muscular kitsune was a bit shocked by the cobalt hedgehog's sudden change in attitude. "N-no! I didn't even know you had a journal!" The kitsune defended, waving his hands out in front of him. He was right on the edge, if he didn't play his cards right, the hedgehog would never trust him again. Anyway, why would he read the hedgehog's journal? Things like that are private, he would never invade someone's privacy by reading someone's journal! He's not that kind of person.

"You swear you didn't?" The cobalt hedgehog said, intimidating his fox brother.

"I swear I didn't!" The muscular vulpine responded, still a bit taken aback by the blue hedgehog's comment. The anger in the hedgehog's eyes dimmed, and he looked over at the clock.

"Hey bro, it's 11:30. It's time to go to sleep." The blue hedgehog said, feeling a bit tired. The orange kitsune stretched and yawned, an action which clearly displayed his canines.

"Yeah... Goodnight Sonic..." The orange vulpine said, feeling a bit tired himself. He got no reply, so he looked over to the blue hedgehog, to see that he was hugging his knees, looking at him with wide eyes.

"Sonic?" He asked, confused at the hedgehog's actions.

"Nnngh..." The cerulean hedgehog grunted, remaining in his position. He blinked, then put his feet back on the ground. "Sorry. It's just that your fangs are so... frightening." He said, fear quickly making it's way back into his eyes. The kitsune blinked. His fangs were... Scaring him? He suddenly felt a wave of guilt wash over him, and his ears drooped, as did his head.

"S...Sorry... I... I didn't know they were so... Terrifying..." The kitsune said quietly, guilt apparent in his voice.

"It's okay, lil' bro. I'm sorry, too. I shouldn't have made you feel so guilty... C'mon, let's go to bed. You can sleep in my room tonight." The cobalt hedgehog said, getting up. The orange kitsune followed him into his room. The room was painted blue, with pictures of the hedgehog every here and there. The blue hedgehog got into bed, having already prepared for it. The orange kitsune, just as the blue hedgehog did, did all he needed to beforehand, so he climbed in with his brother. The cerulean hedgehog had a king-sized bed, so there was enough room to fit both of them.

The blue hedgehog turned off the lamps, and patted the fox's head.

"Goodnight little bro."

"Goodnight big bro."

"Gnnrgh... Amy..."

The kitsune woke up at the sudden noise. He looked over at the clock, which read 5:00 AM, then looked at his brother, who was in a snuggling position. The orange vulpine almost chuckled, he was probably dreaming about Amy again. He decided he could go without a few minutes of sleep, so he just watched the cobalt hedgehog, waiting for him to talk in his sleep again.

"Hahhh... I... Love you too... Amy..." The cobalt hedgehog remarked in his sleep, cuddling his pillow. The kitsune had to stifle a laugh, then relaxed, imagining how the hedgehog would feel when he got to do that with Amy for real. He soon dozed off to sleep...

-SoManySevensIWouldBeRich-

"B..o... Wa... u..."

The orange kitsune grunted in his sleep. The comment sounded like gibberish to him, as he was too consumed by his dreams to understand it. He suddenly smelled something...

"Bro... Wake up... I made pancakes!..." The orange vulpine bolted awake, falling out of bed as he did so. He suddenly heard laughter, and blinked a few times to clear his vision. He saw his brother standing over him, chuckling.

"C'mon, Tails! Let's go eat some pancakes." The blue hedgehog said, motioning to follow him as he walked into the kitchen. The kitsune followed, to notice that the smell got stronger and stronger. When they got to the kitchen, there was a three foot high mountain on pancakes on the table, with his brother sitting in one of the chairs. The kitsune licked his lips.

"Uhm... Itidakimasu?" The blue hedgehog said, shrugging. The kitsune chuckled himself, both of them were Japanese, although they didn't speak it much. He happily walked over to the table, his twin tails twirling behind him, before sitting down in a chair next to his brother. He quickly grabbed the fork and knife, and was ready to dig in. He began to approach the mound of pancakes...

"Hey Tails, there's someone here to see you!" His brother intervened, halting his progress. What could he be talking about? The cerulean hedgehog pointed to the window, and the muscular kitsune followed his hand to the window, where there was a purple fox waving at him and smiling. He quickly whipped his head back to his brother.

"Sonic! How does she know where I live?" He asked, a bit frustrated at the purple vixen's arrival.

"I told her." The cobalt hedgehog replied, winking. The orange kitsune pouted at the hedgehog's actions.

"Why?!" The kitsune asked again.

"Because I know you two should be together!" His brother taunted, swinging his arms. The muscular vulpine felt a blush forming on his face. He looked over at the window, where he saw the purple vixen once again, giggling. He looked back over at his brother.

"S-stop it!" The kitsune defended, getting up out of his chair, showing his muscles in full view.

"Oh, so we're playing tough guy, huh sexy boy?" The hedgehog remarked, roaring with laughter. The orange vulpine felt a wave of anger wash over him, and he growled menacingly, showing his canines. The cobalt hedgehog stopped laughing at the sound, and looked over to his brother. He felt the color drain from his face, and curled up into a spiky blue ball out of instict, hoping to escape danger. The kitsune stopped growling and smirked at the fact that his little scary-guy act had worked. He looked over at the window, and saw that the vixen was now blowing kisses at him. He blushed again, although it was still unnoticable. Why did she feel so attracted to him? He's not that attractive... Is he?

The kitsune heard a small "Thump", and looked over to where the sound came from, to see that his brother had fallen onto the hard, wooden floor, still curled up into a ball. He chuckled, and saw that the blue hedgehog was peeking out from his spiky fortress at him. He looked so cute when he was scared...

"Aww, it's okay blue boy. I won't hurt you with these pearly whites o' mine!" The orange kitsune joked, pointing at his canines. It was his turn to tease. He saw the hedgehog retract his head back into his little ball, and he rolled over to the couch, before one of his spines got caught in it. He found that he could not uncurl, for he might damage the couch, so he began wiggling around in an attempt to escape. The kitsune chuckled, before walking over to the blue hedgehog, and picking him up. The hedgehog felt suprisingly light, but that was reasonable, for he had larger muscles at the time. He began stroking the blue hedgehog's quills, which made the hedgehog squirm. He felt embarrased to be picked up by someone younger than him.

"Don't worry li'l Sonic, I'll take care of you!" The muscular vulpine taunted, making the hedgehog grunt. He set him down, and he uncurled, before standing up. Even though he was taller than the kitsune, he felt much, much shorter after what just happened. He suddenly thought of a way to get revenge...

"I think I'll let that little purple vixen in now." The cobalt hedgehog said, winking at his brother, who's eyes widened.

"No, No!" The orange kitsune said, waving his hands out in front of him.

"Oh, what's wrong? Are you afraid of a little chat with your girlfriend?" The hedgehog said, putting extra emphasis on "girlfriend". The kitsune felt very worried right now, for his brother will not stop bothering him about that cute purple vixen.

"She's not my girlfriend!" The muscular kitsune defended, trying to deter his brother's thoughts. It didn't do anything, because the hedgehog had just placed his hand on the doorknob.

"Have fun shooting your magic, you two!" The cobalt hedgehog said as he turned the doorknob.

"WHAT!?" The orange vulpine yelled loudly at the hedgehog's comment. He couldn't believe it, the cerulean hedgehog actually wanted him to have sex?! But he's only thirteen! "I'm not ready for sex!" He commented, earning a mixed look of suprise and confusion from the hedgehog's face. His jaw dropped

"Have sex?! That's not what I meant! I was referring to the water hose in the backyard!" The hedgehog corrected, not believing what he was hearing either. The kitsune hung his head and sighed.

"...Sorry, I didn't know..." The kitsune said, his ears drooping.

"I am too. I shouldn't have put it like that. Anyway, have fun you two!" The hedgehog said, opening the door, revealing a purple vixen. She curtseed, showing her slim figure, before waving at the orange kitsune.

"Hey cutie! How ya' doing?" She said, walking in. The orange vulpine gulped, he had never stayed with a female for more than a few minutes.

"I'm... I'm fine..." He replied, a bit dazed. Why did this girl seem so... Dazzling all of the sudden? He didn't like girls yet...

"Hey, wanna go to the kitchen? I can make lunch!" She chimed, hooking her arm in his. ...Lunch? It's morning, isn't it? He looked over at the clock, which read 12:00 PM. He looked back at the side of the doorway, intending to ask his brother why he made so many pancakes so close to noon, but he was nowhere to be found. He looked back at the purple vixen, and he discovered that she was indeed very close to his height. He was intending to look where he was going, but he couldn't look away from the vixen's cheerful, beautiful face. ...Wait, did he just think that?... Nah...

"So, what do you want?" The vixen said, breaking his trance.

"Uhm... Uhh... Ehm..." He stuttered, still recovering from his trance.

"I'll think I'll just make some sandwiches. Is that okay?" She asked, bumping the kitsune.

"O-Okay..." He said, staring at the vixen's face once again. He really liked it, it was so cheerful and happy, so uplifting and spiritful.

"Why do you keep staring at my face?" She asked, now in the kitchen. The kitsune frantically searched for an answer, for he didn't really know why. He guessed it was one way or the other...

"You have very pretty eyes." He said, regretting it a little. The vixen giggled, making him feel good inside. Her laugh was so joyful, so cute and small, and he liked it. The vixen unhooked her arm from his, and walked over to the cabinets. He suddenly missed the warmth of her beside him. He watched as she opened various cabinets, all revealing ustensils are various glass objects, and it became clear that she did not know where anything was. He walked over to her, and tapped her shoulder. She turned around, showing her cheerful face once again... He quickly snapped out of his daze.

"Here, I'll show you where the bread is." He said, guiding her to a cabinet on the opposite side of the kitchen, before opening it. She reached inside, picked out a loaf of bread, and walked over to the refridgerator. The way she moved was so elegant, so graceful and fluid. He felt dazed again, watching her get out the lettuce and mayonnaise, and setting them on the counter. He quickly snapped out of his trance, and saw that she was spreading the mayo on the bread. She was just so cute...

"I like sandwiches." She said happily, putting the lettuce on the bread.

"I... I love you..."
