So I reread this story, and I can safely say I'm embarrassed by it. Its so bad I contemplated suicide! So I'm rewriting it. Those of you who like the original...sorry? The original is still on AO3 if you really must read it. I'll likely orphan that story and rename the redraft when its done. Either way I hope you enjoy.
Tails lay under a giant robot. Clinking and banging came from where he worked. Smoke came out from under it as he messed and played around with the contraption. Then there was an explosion and more smoke.
Tails rolled out from under the machine on a creeper coughing. "Gosh, This thing is worse than I thought!" He ran over to the fire extinguisher which was on the other side of the room. He ran back to the fire and sprayed it under the machine. A hissing sound came from below and the smoke was no more. Tails sighed in frustration. "I need to have the fire extinguisher closer to me."
"I'll say."
Tails turned around and saw a face he hoped never to see again. "Fiona! What are you doing here?!" Fiona stood there. She was older. No longer a teen but a grown woman, her hair was longer, down to her mid back, and she wore a revealing two piece outfit identical in color to her old one she wore in the freedom fighters.
She gave him a sultry smile. "Surprised to see me?" She asked, her hands on her hips and posed a little like a model, with her looks she could pass for one.
"Yes. Why aren't you in prison?" He asked harshly
"I escaped of course, how else?" She asked with a raised eyebrow.
"And how exactly did you do that?"
"Don't worry about it", she looked him up and down, a satisfied smile on her face, you've grown. "I like it, you became pretty hot Tails."
Tails blushed at this, he didn't know about hot, but grown was a definite yes. He was taller than her now, and he had filled out with muscle, his balls dropped, a deeper voice resounded through the halls of his garage as he talked to her. As a kid he would have given anything to hear those words from her, now it was bittersweet. He clenched his fists, "why are you here?"
"I work for the irs", she stated, a cold look in her eyes.
"R-really? I swear I-"
She laughed at this, "you idiot, I was kidding, I just wanted to come by and say hi. It's been years since I've seen you!"
"Well you've outstayed your welcome, get out." He said coldly, pointing towards the door, though. Wait, how did you even get in here?"
"Don't worry about that, Tails, I changed, I also came to say I'm sorry." She said, her smile gone and a guilty look on her face, "I was a jerk and did a lot of stupid things. "I was young, and dumb...and I was scared. And I'm sorry for hurting you."
Tails stared at her, she seemed sincere. "Where's the Scourge?"
"Dumped him, I matured and realized he was bad news. When I tell you I changed I'm not kidding. Please Tails, I only want forgiveness."
He sighed. "Fine, I forgive you, but you still need to leave, I don't want anything to do with you."
"Okay, but I have a present for you Tails."
"I'm good." He said holding up a hand to her.
"Come on, you'll like it, I swear, then I'll leave, for now."
"What do you mean for now?"
"Exactly what I said, I'll be back to give you more company."
"No."
"How ya gonna stop me, you don't even know how im getting in she said smugly"
"Fine, just give it to me." He said impatiently.
"Close your eyes."
He closed then, deciding to humor her. He held his hands out and felt a body brush against them- Tails opened his eyes to find Fiona right in his face, before he could react her lips were pressed to his, his eyes widened in shock as he froze. She pulled away smiling, "I wasn't kidding when I said you've gotten pretty hot. Also, you're cute when you blush", she said with a smirk as she casually walked off. "See you later, big man."
He rubbed the back of his head blushing, "dang it, I need better taste in women…."
Hi, hope you enjoyed, and sorry for the short chapter, they are mostly all like this. The good news is that I'm up to chapter seven right now. I'll update once a month at any random time, to give myself time to write the rest of the chapters. Good bye for now.
