"Well, do you know what could be *IN* the bushes?" I stuttered.
He gives me a strange look, like he always does when I say something, and says "Shads.... please..."
So I shut my "pie hole", as Silver likes to say, and watch the bushes. Then all of a sudden, someone comes out of the bushes and just... stands there. This was first a shadow but then as they came closer, the shadow disappeared and it was a girl! She was a purple cat with a crown like band on her head and long fringes.
I turn to Silver to ask what's going on but before I could do that, he had a "cupid struck me in the butt with an arrow" look on his face. He fell in love with the girl. I may be stupid but I have my instincts and I know they are digging each other.
Acting fast, I say "Don't do it Silver, it's a trap!" But you know what he did next? He *shushed* me! Okay, whatever. So they continue to stare at each other for some time. Silver stepped up and the girl stepped up as well. All of a sudden... whoosh! She ran into his arms. *NOW* I know that one, Silver knows her and she knows him and two, that they are *REEALY* digging each other. He looked as of he was ready to make out with her.
Now, I don't like Silver's girlfriend but I believe in staying true to your mate. Silver may not be making out with the girl but I don't think that Rouge is going to appreciate this girl hugging up on her "Silver boy". So I quicky tell him "hey, Silver, don't forget that you have a girlfriend!" Now, he's paying attention! He tried to push this girl off of him but it's too late. I heard Rouge yelling "Silver boy!!".
We all froze. We looked at her as if we were up to something. The girl started to give Rouge a little glare. Like a cat's glare. I think they might be familiar with each other but anyway... Silver turned to his girl and said "babe, it's not what you think..."
"Silver boy!!! You're letting this little girl hug all over you" Rouge complained. Then the girl had a surprised look on her face and said "Silver.... your *dating* the treasure thief?" He replied: "one, she's my girlfriend and two, she's not a "thief", she just can't contain herself around shiny things"
"Ohh... okay Silver, you're soo cute and very naive. Defending the thief that stole from me when *WE* were dating. But you're the same age as I am, so I understand" the girl said.
"Silver boy... I'm going to kill that cat!" Rouge said as she lunged for the girl. But greatly, Silver stopped her. "Baby, please. Don't do this, okay? You're the only girl I will ever love, okay?" he reassured.
He then turned to the other girl and said "Blaze, I know you are still in love with me and you're upset that we broke up the way we did, but I am in love with my girlfriend. I never felt this way about anyone since... you. There are times where I have thought about you and have even missed you, but please know that I will always be your friend. I just can't love you the way I used to, okay?"
Blaze nodded and she hugged Silver again. This time, she was crying.
So what have I got out of this story? Well, I got the girl's name and the feeling that Rouge has found a fierce competitor for Silver's love; none other than Blaze the Cat.
