Hey everyone! Update: I can't add a new chapter until after this weekend because I've got OBA's this weekend :( I'll update asap after that though! So please don't leave angry comments or PM me passive-aggressive stuff because I can't help that I can't update. And thank you to all who have been reviewing and continuing to read :3
A wonderful smell brewed from the kitchen and entered the lilac and light-grey hedgehogs noses as they made their ways into the house. May inhaled and grinned while Silver giggled softly at her.
"What? It smells good!" She exclaimed, noticing her telekinetic friend laughing.
He shrugged, still chuckling softly. "Nothing," he told her.
May looked at Silver questionably, then headed into the dining area of the workshop for dinner.
Conversations upon conversations surrounded the dining table as the two hedgehogs entered the dining room. At once, each conversation ended when all heads turned to face the two. Hands went up in the air, waving, and warm smiles covered the faces of each Mobian at the table.
"Hey May, hey Silver," Tails welcomed as the two sat down at the table. "How was training?"
"Very good! May is getting really good at telekinesis," Silver answered, patting May's back while she blushed.
"That's awesome May! Can't wait to see it in action!" Sonic told her. He was always excited about action, and action-packed events. She smiled as a gesture to the speedy blue hedgie sitting across from her.
Blaze got up to leave when Silver asked her where she was headed. "I'm going to check on Amy and Cream to see if they need any help," she replied, and continued on her way to the kitchen where her two female friends were cooking dinner.
The conversations slowly erupted once more, all different from one another. May sat next to Shadow, who discussed the next time they would train together at Shadow's not-so-secret (anymore) place. Rouge the bat flirted with her strong red echidna friend because she knew it would make him uncomfortable and she thought it was cute. Tails talked to his best friend, Sonic, about something he was going to talk about at dinner.
In the kitchen, a rose hedgehog is stirring vegetables in a pot of boiling water on the stove with a cream-toned rabbit watching; taking note of every technique her pink friend used for future reference. Blaze entered the kitchen as Cream took note of the temperature the stove-top should be once the water has reached the boiling point.
"Hey you two, just thought I would check in. Do you need any help?" Amy rested the spoon she had been using to stir down and turned to face the lavender cat.
"Hey Blaze, I think Cream and I are fine, but thanks for checking in!" The bubbly girl replied. "Could you let everyone know that dinner'll be another couple of minutes, though?"
Blaze gave her friend a warm smile. "Of course I can," she replied, and left as quickly as she had entered. Amy and Cream turned their focus back to the vegetables and the main course, which was due to be taken out of the oven in a short amount of time.
"So, how should I go about telling everyone?" Tails asked Sonic in a hushed voice. Sonic had opened his mouth to respond to the young kitsune when Blaze returned to the scene with something to say. "Amy wanted me to let all of you know that dinner will be just a few more minutes, so let your rumbling tummies know that too," Blaze told them, giggling at her last remark.
"Alright!" Knuckles spoke downwards. "Dinner is soon, just be patient!" The group laughed when his stomach growled. "NO! I ca-ha-n't speed things up! I told you to be-heehee patient. Geez!" He yelled at his stomach, laughing throughout his speech.
Amy and Cream arrived to the dining room moments later, hands full with food galore; vegetables, a roast chicken, mashed potatoes, and garlic bread. Everyone licked their lips at the delicious sight. The girls set the food down onto the table and took their own seats; Amy beside Sonic and Cream beside Tails.
Amy clasped her hands together and smiled. "Alright everyone, before we dig in, we ought to have a toast to welcome our new friend, May. She has had quite the day as her first day here!" Amy stated. Everyone nodded, grabbed their glasses and clinked one another's. "To May!" The group exclaimed in unison; all but May who sat in her seat, blushing.
After the round of *clinks* and proper welcomings, Amy told the group to 'dig in,' to which they gladly did...especially Knuckles and his grumpy stomach.
The group served food onto their plates, passing the dishes around for everyone to share. Plates around the table were soon filled with the colours of brown, white, green, orange and golden-brown. Bites were taken of each dish and many thanks were sent towards Amy and Cream for the amazing meal before Tails decided to share what he had been meaning to share all night.
The golden-orange kitsune held his glass in one hand and his fork in the other, then began softly clinking his glass with the fork to get everyone's full attention.
"I have an announcement to make, which is mostly geared towards our new friend, May. After hearing about May's past, I came up with an idea to reunite her with her family. I could create a machine to make her human once more and then a transporter to send her back home. I know many of you have already gotten close to May but it's up to her if she would like to stay here with us or go home. And May, you don't have to make up your mind right now, I just wanted to get the suggestion out while we were all gathered together. Take your time to decide," Tails explained his full idea, making sure not to stress the small lilac girl.
Now all she had to do was decide...or would she take some time to ponder over this? She was lost for words as the group stared at her waiting for any sort of reply.
Oh man, the ending of this is kinda cruel of me because a) it's suspenseful and b) you guys won't know her response until after this weekend (So in 5 or more days) I'M SORRY! I TRULY AM DON'T BE MAD PLS! 3
Please continue to review and hopefully one day someone will follow or favourite my fanfic (that's my goal: at LEAST one!) Love every single one of you :3 Emma says bye for now!
