The entertainment room of Blue Moonlight was quietly calm, as all eyes were staring anxiously at Sonic. He stood on stage holding his mike, and one small slip of paper which contained the final performance theme for the night. The audience waited patiently for it to be read, and for Sonic to go on! After a dramatic pause, Sonic opened the slip and read the theme aloud!
"Alright everyone! Let's wait no longer! The final theme for tonight is………… 'Sing the song whose title matches………the title of this story'?"
Sonic look confused! He didn't remember writing that! However, he didn't really have a choice. He had to go on.
"Alright then, folks. Give me a sec!" (Glances at the top to see the title).
"Oh, THAT one! A good choice!" Sonic then turned his attention toward Necronos.
"Excuse me pal! Would you mind setting the proper mood for me please?"
Necronos nodded, and used his magic of illusions again. The entire room was now colored in a dim, indigo shade, and miniature stars were glowing everywhere! Some were on the ceiling, while others floated just inches away for the audience's faces! It felt like the night was brought inside the club building.
"No that's more like it!" Sonic said happily. He then faced the band.
"Let's do it boys!"
The band started with a low keyboard melody that flowed with Sonic's soft voice:
"One more night……One more night……"
"I've been tryingooh so long, to let you know,
Let you know how I feel.
And if I stumble, if I fall, just help me back,
So I can make you see…"
"Please give me one more night. Give me one more night.
One more night, 'cause I can't wait forever.
Give me just one more night. Ooh, just one more night.
Oh, one more night, 'cause I can't wait forever."
"I've been sitting here so long, wasting time,
Just staring at the phone.
And I was wondering should I call you, then I thought,
Maybe you're not alone…"
"Please give me one more night. Give me just one more night.
Oh, one more night, 'cause I can't wait forever.
Please give me one more night. Ooh, just one more night.
Oh, one more night, 'cause I can't wait forever.
Give me one more night! Give me just one more night!
Oh, one more night, 'cause I can't wait forever!"
"Like a river to the sea,
I will always be with you.
And if you sail away,
I will follow you…"
"Give me one more night. Give me just one more night.
Oh, one more night, 'cause I can't wait forever."
Sonic then gazed right into Amy's eyes as he began the final verses:
"I know they'll never be a time, you'll ever feel the same,
And I know it's only words.
But if you change your mind, you know that I'll be here!
And maybe we both can learn…"
"Give me just one more night. Give me just one more night.
Oh, one more night, 'cause I can't wait forever!
Give me just one more night. Give me just one more night!
Oh, one more night, 'cause I can't wait forever!"
One of the band members then began a beautifully played sax solo. Playing it with the keyboard made it feel very……hypnotic. Once the solo ended, so did the song. The lighting was restored to normal, and the crowd went wild! Super wild! They all cheered for what seemed like forever (actually it was only 20 seconds). Sonic took his bow.
"Thank you! Thank you all for coming! Before we go, let's hear it one more time for our performers tonight! Take a bow everybody!"
The crowd cheered again as everybody who sang took one last bow in front of the audience.
Sonic finished. "Thanks again, everybody. We hope to see you all again, here at Blue Moonlight real soon!..."
Fifteen minutes later, the club was nearly completely empty. Once again only Sonic and Amy remained. They decided to spend a little more time together before heading home for the night. For a while they only talked about how great all their friends were, and how much the guests loved it.
"I really enjoyed your little finale, Sonic." Amy said to him.
"Yeah. I was pretty good, wasn't I?"
But just then, a thought crossed his mind.
"Say Amy? Would you happen to know how that last theme got in my bowl? I really don't remember putting it in there."
Amy just giggled slightly. "Come on! Isn't it obvious? I put it in there!"
Sonic actually looked surprised. "YOU? Really? Hmm…now that I think about it, why couldn't I figure that out?"
"Maybe you're just slow." Amy teased.
"Yeah, maybe I'm just-HEY!"
The two of them just started laughing. Then Amy wondered:
"Hey Sonic. Do you know what time it is by any chance?"
Sonic got out a small watch. "It's……11:00."
"11:00! Already? No way!"
Amy looked quite surprised. "Man, this night lasted longer than I thought!"
She then yawned hazily. "And now I feel too tired to walk all the way back home…"
Sonic just sat still for a moment. He thought about what Amy just said. Then, he got an idea.
"Say Amy? Why don't you crash at my place tonight?"
Amy's eyes widened. Did she hear right?
"Sonic? What did you just say?"
"I said, 'why don't you crash at my place tonight'."
She couldn't believe it. Sonic actually ask for her to stay at his place for the night!
Her shocked expression suddenly turned into a happy grin.
"I………I'd like that!" She finally answered.
With that, Sonic then locked up the club, and held Amy in his arms.
"Hang on!" Amy did, quite tightly.
Sonic raced through the dim lit, city streets. And within a few seconds, reached the front door of his top floor apartment (about 18 stories).
When they got inside, Sonic noticed how sleepy Amy was beginning to look.
"You look pretty beat, Amy."
She smiled. "Well, you can't sayit hasn't been a long night." She said.
Sonic then decided to finish the night in style. He opened his sliding glass door, and led Amy out to the balcony. Outside, the two of them stared at the bright full moon hanging in the sky. Sonic then sat on a small chair. But Amy felt so tired she couldn't sit up straight. So instead she laid her head on Sonic's lap. She began to close her eyes.
Sonic looked down at her smiling. "Amy? Would you like me to help you sleep?" He asked.
Amy blushed, and smiled happily. "I'd really like that, Sonic…Thanks..."
And so as Amy laid their, Sonic gently stroked her hair, as he began to romantically sing her to sleep:
"Please come out tonight, I need you here.
It's been a long, long time, and I can't wait.
Let's find out, let's see, what it's like out there.
If it rains, we'll find somewhere, somewhere dry and warm."
"You'll say, 'My, it's been a long, long time'.
I'll say, 'How are you? I've been fine'."
"Please come out tonight, let's go out and see the world.
We can try to find, find somewhere.
It seems so long ago, I can hardly remember the time.
It's all I want, it's all I want, so let's see what we find."
"You'll say, 'There's so much you need to know'.
I'll say, 'Are you really sure you have to go?'"
"We don't need a reason, no explanations.
Just stay with me here, tonight.
I won't say a word.
I just need you here."
"Please come out tonight, let's go out and find ourselves.
You can lean your head, on my shoulder, remember?"
(Starts to carry her to the bed inside).
"You'll say, 'My, is that the time?'
I'll say, 'Why not stay with me tonight?'"
(Lays her down on the bed, and he lays beside her, facing each other).
"We don't need a reason.
It's so warm inside.
There's no one between us.
If someone comes, we can hide.
Just lay here beside me.
Just see what it's like."
(Gently strokes her face...)
"Please come out tonight."
"Please come out tonight."
"Please come out tonight."
"Please come out, please come out."
"Please come out tonight."
"Will you stay with me tonight?"
"Lay with me tonight."
"Please come out……come out."
"Just lay here……just lay here."
"Please come out……tonight…"
'KISS'
