"…Hey why haven't we had a double-date yet?"
"Huh?" Silver glanced up from the book he was reading, laying lazily on his stomach on Sonic's couch. Sonic himself was seated in an armchair across the table, going through the channels on the TV absently. Now he glanced away from the TV to look at Silver, giving him a meaning glance.
"A double-date. Aren't you friends with Blaze too?"
Silver raised an eyebrow. "Yeah, but… what?" What kind of idea had Sonic gotten now?
"Well… We're friends, and everyone knows that Shadow and Blaze are dating-"
"Wait what?" Silver exclaimed. Dating? Since when? "What do you mean that they're dating?"
Now it was Sonic's turn to raise an eyebrow. "Uh, dating, Silver?" He held up his hands. "Like, kissing and all that stuff we do. You're seriously not saying that you didn't know this, Silvs?" He grinned, and Silver considered whether he should be offended or not.
"Uh, no, I didn't notice… She hasn't told me anything…" He trailed off, and Sonic shook his head amusedly.
"Seriously Silver, you live in the future. It's kinda hard to call you to gossip then, isn't it?" -Silver chose to not comment on that…
"Yeah, yeah, but still, a double-date?" Date + Sonic + Shadow, equals madness. Silver really liked Sonic a lot but… gosh, he could be such a handful sometimes… not to mention all the times that Silver would freak out about how different everything were in the past…
"It'll be fun! I promise!" Sonic tried reassuring him, grinning happily.
Silver sighed, and looked outside. It was such a nice day though… "Fine."
It was hopeless.
They had been staring at each other, for fifteen minutes already, not touching their ice-creams. Blaze was slowly drinking her milkshake with a straw, seated beside Shadow. And on the other side of the table, sat Silver, chewing on his spoon, with Sonic beside him.
Oh god. This was so awkward.
Silver glanced at Sonic. And then he glanced at his untouched silverware. And lastly he glanced to his just as untouched ice-cream, and back at Sonic's face…
…and then, subtly, the silver hedgehog flicked with his wrist, a few cyan sparks whirling around his hand as Sonic's spoon suddenly began to move. He moved the spoon to his ice-cream, scooped up a bit, all without Sonic noticing – which was just weird – and began to move the spoon towards his mouth…
…and then Silver accidentally poked him with the spoon next to his mouth, and the ice-cream dropped into his lap.
Oops
Sonic yelped, and Shadow flinched as if he just woke up. Blaze raised an eyebrow, smirking with the straw still in her mouth. Silver, on the other hand, promptly dropped the spoon, and reached out with his psychokinesis to frantically pick up a bundle of napkins on the other side of the café.
Aghhh, why was he so clumsy? Though… Silver thought almost mischievously, now Sonic would at least pay attention to him. Ah yes, that would be the perfect scene in this case, after all, Sonic was his goddamn boyfriend. And – however embarrassing it may be to admit but – Silver still hadn't gotten all the customs and manners of this era memorised…
…And no, that was most definitely not his bad self-confidence speaking. Cough.
Sonic quickly snatched a napkin out of the air as Silver had them float over, and then he hastily wiped up the melting – but undoubtedly very cold – ice-cream. Silver gave Blaze an apologetic shrug, to which she made the face 'I should've seen this coming'.
Shadow gave Sonic a look which was clearly both smug and amused, and then he turned to Blaze, as if to ignore the speedster altogether. Silver felt another embarrassed blush creeping up onto his cheeks, so he quickly turned to Sonic instead. The ice-cream stain was nowhere to be seen, and he was just scrunching the dirty napkin up.
"…So." Silver said quietly. "Your idea – your responsibility." He referred to the date here, as they were clearly done with the café for now, if Sonic's expression – and Silver's clumsiness - was anything to go by… Which, in turn, should lead to…
…disaster. Or perhaps the cinema, or the park or…
"Let's just go already."
…Anyway.
Shadow was annoying him. Striding there like the smug jerk he is, holding Blaze's hand way too gentlemanly…
Not that Sonic couldn't act all stylish and smug though, oh no, actually, he could do it much better than the faker. So Sonic then turned to Silver, who was walking along almost hesitantly, muzzle burrowed in that adorable chest fluff of his, and offered him his hand with his trademark smile.
Silver slowed down, raising an eyebrow… and then Sonic directed his next step, so that he came to walk closer to Silver. And Silver looked at him questioningly, but took his hand nevertheless.
Score!
Sonic thought, and squeezed Silver's hand slightly. He glanced at him, and was – all of a sudden – almost overwhelmed… by just how cute he was, in fact. Maybe it was the fact that his chest fluff doubled almost as a scarf, and that Silver's adorable-levels just shot through the roof when he hid his muzzle in it. Or the fact that Silver really just looked rather… handsome. Chaos.
Anyways, the cinema was now right in front of them, a large, almost flat one-storey building, built out of red bricks. Light seeped through the large double-doors and out on the sidewalk, and posters emblazoned with the latest movies they had to offer was pinned to the walls, both inside and outside the building.
Both duos then entered surprisingly quietly, and managed to get through pop-corn buying and ticket-checking without any too big troubles. They picked an action movie, since neither of them really liked the romance ones anyway. Maybe because the movies were just so bleak and uncreative compared their own stories, which were flavoured with a great deal of saving-the-world-ness, and just a pinch of what-the-hell…
…And dimension-jumping, time-traveling, and 'grr-I-will-kill-you-ness'…
They picked out a row of seats almost in the middle of the room, and then Blaze and Silver strategically sat down next to each other, so that their respective boyfriends wouldn't sit anywhere close to the other, and quite possibly strangle the other.
Silver noted that their hands were still intertwined comfortably, and he decided to take it as an invitation to scoot closer to Sonic. Too bad that not only one, but two armrests were between the time-traveller and the blue blur…
The screen flashed, and all and any chattering quieted down into nothingness. The first overwhelming waves of sound washed over them, as the brief advertisements began. They ended quickly, and then the movie began. And as many other movies, it began with that surreal 'wait is the camera facing down or upwards?', before it then really began…
…Though the most surreal thing today, was most definitely the fact that Shadow smiled. Blaze said something Silver couldn't hear – a shame really, 'cause what in the world could have that effect on him? – and then he smiled. Wow…
…And next thing Silver knew, it was he himself who was supressing a laugh, because of Sonic who cheerily tried to get a grin out of him too.
A/N: Honestly, I did have some kind of plot for this, but I guess I just lost it along the way…
