Chapter 2: Tails' First Date

Disclaimer: Don't own nothing but Holly…*sob sob*

"DAMN, Tails!" Sonic whistled. "You've made a name for yourself with this place!" I laughed nervously. Amy showed up then, wearing a bikini to show that she had been developing over the years. Sonic and I both were starting to babble like idiots. "A-uh-I-uh-yu-yeah! You look good," Sonic managed to blurt out. "Thanks, Sonic," Amy said, and hugged him. Sonic fainted. I took out Amy's hammer and poked him with it. After an hour, I got frustrated…and then I hit him in the stomach with the hammer. Sonic got up and tossed his cookies on me. After wiping off the undigested chili from my face, we headed off to the spa. Amy and I ran for the pool while Sonic stayed behind. "Sonic, c'mon!" I yelled. "The water's fine. Are you sure you don't want to swim?" Amy asked. "Uh, yeah. I should rest my stomach after throwing up on Tails." Amy and I shrugged and jumped in the pool. Sonic stayed behind and started to eat…more chili! That faker! "Okay, Sonic, you're going in the water!" I yelled. "No, no!" Sonic began screaming hysterically as I flew behind him and tossed him into the pool. "Help, I'm drowning! Help, I'm drowning! Help, I'm drowning!" Sonic screamed as he thrashed over and over in the water. Amy groaned and took him out. "Help, I'm drowning! Help, I'm drowning! Help, I'm drowning!" "Uh, Sonic? You're out of the water…"

Sonic calmed down when we reached the sauna. Up until we realized the only thing we could have at the sauna was a towel around our bodies. No swimsuit or anything! Ooh-ooh! Sonic nearly went down on the floor and started yelling, "Thank you, Lord!" Finally, after we pried Sonic off the floor, we got ready for the sauna. When we entered, Knuckles was in there and by his side was…Holly! "Hey, guys," Knuckles waved. "Hi, Knux!" we all said. "Haven't seen you guys in a while…this is my sister, Holly," Knuckles said, gesturing to Holly. "Nice to meet ya, Holly," Sonic winked and shook her hand. "You!" I screamed. "Miles…" Holly said coldly. "So you know each other…" Knuckles asked. "We're neighbors!" we both snapped. Amy backed away so far, she was near the box that blew hot air into the sauna, and since she didn't have much of a grip on her towel, it fell halfway. Sonic then began drooling and staring at her breasts. "Sonic! Snap outta it!" Knuckles slapped him over the head. "S-sorry, Ams!" he yelled. Amy went over and patted his head. "It's okay, Sonic," said Amy sweetly. She gave him a hug. "Hee-hee-hee!" Sonic giggled. Knuckles gagged.

"C'mon, Tails! Just ask her to go with you! Amy wants to double date!" Sonic begged. "I don't give a damn in hell if Amy likes going around chanting Hare Krishna and spitting nickels in Station Square! I'm not asking that arrogant bitch Holly to go out with me!" I yelled. "Please, Tails!" Sonic begged. I looked at him, pulling his big-eyed, heartbreaking look. "Okay, I'll ask her! God!" I ran off and knocked on her apartment door. She answered. "What do you want, bastard?" she asked. "Holly…will you go out to dinner with me, Sonic, and Amy?" I asked. Holly looked skeptical. "I guess so…my mom's working late again," she muttered. "Okay, uh…I'll see you…" I said. "Yeah…see you," she said slowly. I walked back to my room with a dazed look on my face. "Hey, buddy, are you okay?" Sonic asked. "Yeah…I'm fine…" I said. After an hour, Amy came over with Holly next to her. And I swore my jaw dropped when I saw Holly. She looked so hot with her quills pulled back and with the slightest hint of makeup on her face. "So, let's go!" Sonic said, leading us all out.

"I'll take the chicken salad with ranch dressing," Amy said. "I'll take a steak, twenty ounces," Sonic said, leaning back on his chair. "I'll take a salad with light dressing," said Holly. I stammered for the first two minutes until I managed to blurt out, "I'll take a chicken breast!" Holly giggled a bit. "Why'd you take so long to say that, Tails?" Sonic asked. "I guess I'm nervous, 'cause this is my first date," I managed to tell him. But by the time dinner came around, all four of us were laughing like we had known each other all our lives. "No, really, I dunked his head in the paint!" Sonic told Holly. She laughed and looked at me. I blushed and shoved more chicken into my mouth. "C'mon, Tails. She's not as bad as you said she was." Sonic patted me on the back. "Y-you're right, Sonic. I think she might be better than what I thought…"

After dinner, Amy and Holly looked around and then they saw a dance club. They looked at us and we all went in. The music blared loudly. We started to dance to some pop music that played all over the place. "Damn it, this is boring!" said Amy. "What's wrong, Amy?" Sonic asked. "Hey, play some slow songs!" she yelled. The DJ seemed to agree with her and soon some slow songs began to play. Nervously, I took Holly into my arms and we began to dance. I heard the music over and over in my mind:

Dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in vain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand
I dream of fire
Those dreams that tie two hearts that will never die
And near the flames
The shadows play in the shape of the man's desire
This desert rose
Whose shadow bears the secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume that would torture you more than this
And now she turns
This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
This fire burns
I realize that nothing's as it seems
I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in vain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand
I dream of rain
I lift my gaze to empty skies above
I close my eyes
The rare perfume is the sweet intoxication of love
I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in vain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand
Sweet desert rose
Whose shadow bears the secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume that would torture you more than this
Sweet desert rose
This memory of hidden hearts and souls
This desert flower
This rare perfume is the sweet intoxication of love

I walked Holly over to her apartment. She was smiling at me and the two of us were walking hand in hand together. Sonic and Amy had gone over to Amy's, so we were alone. We finally got to her apartment and then she leaned forward. Wh-what was happening? Was she going to kiss me!? I then cupped her shoulders and put my mouth on hers and then I kissed her. After what seemed like over a minute, she pulled back. "I had fun, Miles. I guess I'll see you tomorrow." Before she went into her apartment, she looked over at me. "We should do this again sometime." She kissed me again and then went in. As I went into my apartment, I then laid down into my bed and put my hands over my chest and whispered:

"I think I'm in love…"
