Chapter 4:Connecting.
Tails lay in his bed, squirming and kicking."Poor thing, he must be having a nightmare."Rouge said quietly, as she walked over and sat beside him on the bed. "It's not suprising after all he's been through." She whispered, gazing down lovingly at him. Tails' eyes suddenly shot open as he called out.
"No!"He yelled out, his breath slow and heavy. His eyes were wide with fear as he slowly turned to face Rouge,who looked at him worriedly.
"Tails, are you ok?"She asked as she moved a little closer to him. She had backed away a little when he suddenly burst out of his sleep.
"Y, yeah, I'm fine Rouge, I just had a nightmare, that's all." He replied, beginning to calm back down again.
"I see, shall I leave you alone then?" Rouge asked, hoping against the answer being a yes.
"No, it's ok, I'd rather you stayed, it's nice to have some company." Tails said with a light smile. Rouge nodded and smiled as she sat back down beside him.
"So, what happened in your dream?" Rouge asked, doing her best to comfort him.
"Well, yo...I mean, someone got shot, and it was by me too. I lost control over my body and I let the bullet hit them. It's been the same for a while now." Tails replied sadly.
"I see, so, who was it that got shot?"
"It was the one I love..." Tails said,turning his gaze to the floor. "That's what makes it even worse."
"Oh, I see, but you still haven't told me who that is. Who is it?" Rouge asked hopefully.
"I'd rather not say, I'm not sure if appreciate the answer."Tails replied, still seeming sad.
"Oh, that's ok. Just remember though, I'm here if you need me, ok?You can tell me anything you want." Rouge said as she put and arm round Tails shoulder. At that moment Tails froze up, did she really just do that. She must of done, he'd just woken up from a dream anyway. He finally realized the strange look she was giving him because of him becoming so silent.
"Thanks Rouge." He said blissfully as he rested his head on her shoulder. Now it was Rouge's turn to go silent. She was suprised at this action. Was it possible that he felt the same way about her as she did about him? She shook out of her thought as she heard Tails' breath become heavy and slow. She turned her head a little and saw him sleeping on her shoulder. She began to giggle a little.
"Don't worry Tails, I'll tell you soon, I promise." She whispered lightly before laying her head down on top of his, also falling to sleep. That night, neither of them had nightmares, but dreams they now found to have more of a chance of coming true. However, for eveything good, there must also be something to oppose it.
