Knuckles P.O.V.
Urgh, stupid shirt. Hate wearing these shirts and ties. I didn't have a clue how to put the tie on, so I gave it my best shot. It looked… okay. It wasn't bad for a first try. I'll ask Tails or Cream to sort it…
The shirt was too tight at the top as well. What is it with tight formal clothin'?!
So, instead of ripping the shirt, 'cause then I would have to buy another, I unbuttoned the top two buttons, letting me breathe again.
Tonight I think I did well suitin' up. Chose the clothin' myself, too. I don't really mind goin' to this catch up Tails had organised. Just as long as he doesn't have one every week. That would tick me off.
The clothes I had were just simple stuff. Didn't want some fancy suite lawyers wore an' all.
I had on black trousers that weren't baggy, but weren't tight. They fitted perfect. I also had a black shirt on, with the buttons undid at the top, letting me breathe. I also found a white tie that, I thought, looked good with a black shirt. Only problem was, I hadn't a clue how to put on ties. Never mind…
I had to ask Amy on what to wear for shoes though. I thought she would have chosen somethin' way over the top, but I was proved wrong. She picked out white and dark blue k-swiss trainers. The tongues of the trainers were dark blue with patterns, which Amy told me would match perfect with the clothin' I've chosen.
Anyway, the point is, I didn't look half bad. Choosin' the clothes myself, even though Amy helped…
So now I'm in front of Tails' house, Sonic walkin' beside me. He was wearing the same, except he had a turquoise kind of colour for his tie and a white shirt. The rest of our clothin' was pretty much the same.
I was the first to retch the front door and knocked three times. Not a minute later and Cream had answered the door, a huge smile plastered on her face. She looked, I thought, really different and grown up in the dress she had on.
She had a beige coloured dress that was like a boob tube at the top. From the waist down the dress flowed out a bit, making her look elegant. What surprised me was that she had on chocolate coloured four inched heels on. How could she walk in them? I've no idea. She never really wore heels. Not when I see her anyway…
She invited us into the house, explainin' what we were havin' for dinner, when it was gonna be ready and all. I wasn't really payin' much attention. Didn't matter to me, ya see. Just as long as I get my grub, I'll be fine.
We followed Cream into the hallway, just at the end of the stairs. Looking to your right was the kitchen. Amy was already there, talkin' to Tails. She looked good in green. It brought out her eyes. Tails had the same as me except he had on a pink tie. I had to snicker at him. Cream probably made him wear it, sayin' he looked cute with it.
I then looked to my left, and what I saw made me freeze on the spot, the heart beat increasin'. I also found myself startin' to sweat a little, 'cause it just got hot…
I had no idea she was gonna be here…
There she was, sittin' on the armchair that faced me, half way across the room. She had her legs crossed over each other, her dress showin' her most of her thigh. One hand had a glass of, what looked like wine, and the other rested on the arm of the chair. Her upper body facin' me, catching my eyes as well as hers.
I'm not the one for romance or anytin', but damn, she looked beautiful. The sparkle the diamonds gave off made her eyes twinkle like stars.
Dammit, I sound like one of those stupid poets. Or one of those sappy guys…
She lifted her arm that was resting, waving her fingers at me, a smirk placed on her face, her eyes half shut.
"Hey, Knuxie." Her voice was softer than usual. Probably from takin' a sip of the wine seconds earlier.
"Uh, I… Uh, hi, um… em, I… need, a-a… glass of water."
I don't know how, and I don't know why, but I was blubberin' like a complete idiot. Way da go hot shot.
I quickly walked into the kitchen grabbin' any glass that was seen, and put the tap on full speed, not caring whether it was hot or cold water. I just needed some water and fast!
As soon as my glass was over filled, I drank faster than what Blue boy could run.
How the hell could it, all of a sudden, get so hot in here? My mouth was even dry!
Oh, hell no…
There's no way in hell I'm goin' back out there! No chance in hell!
"Aw, somethin' too hot for ya in there, Knuckles?"
I looked around, seeing Amy standing beside me, jumping up to sit on the worktop beside the sink.
"No, I was just thirsty..." I really am a bad liar…
"Yeah, right." Another voice replied. I turned again and saw Sonic in front of me, half way across the kitchen.
I growled, seeing as he can be the most annoyin', bigheaded, stupid cocky ass guy I've ever known. Yet at the same time, a great best friend. I then smirked, knowing the ultimate comeback…
"Like you can talk, blue boy. Can't keep your eyes off Amy?" I turned my whole body towards him, expectin' him to stutter and such. Yet, his lips turned to a smirk?
"Well, she does look good tonight, doncha think?" He was lookin' at Amy, as if expectin' a response. He got one.
"I know I do." She winked at us both, and walked out, probably goin' to see Rouge.
Damn, I'll have to face her sometime tonight. May as well get it over and done with…
"I was expectin' you to star stutterin' like an idiot. Guess you're not shy anymore?"
"Well, I still am, but… She did look good tonight. I couldn't deny it." He was smirking at me, knowin' my plan backfired.
"I'll remember that next time." I said before setting my glass down.
"You guys ready for the food then?" Tails had just walked in, Cream turnin' to go see the girls.
"Yeah, I'm starvin' buddy!"
"Typical."
"Everyone needs food, Knucklehead."
I glanced dangerously at him, as if signalling a warnin'.
"Don't call me that, or else…"
He put his hands up, admittin' defeat. Heh, scardy cat…
We sat down at the six seated table, waitin' for the girls to come.
Oh no…
There's a spare seat beside me…
I put my elbows on the table, and clapped my hands together, whisperin' over and over again, to the gods, not to be seated beside Rouge. I probably wouldn't be able to handle myself with that dress she has-… Uh, yeah… Anyway…
They walked in, and that's when I got a better look at her.
Wow…
I still kept prayin' though. It didn't work…
She sat right next to me, smirking slyly.
She rested one elbow on the table and rested her head in her hand. She turned her head slightly towards me, eyes half lidded again…
Oh god… This is pure torture…
"Hey, Knuxie."
Oh no… She put on the same voice she did on Angel Island… Soothing…
I couldn't resist that voice… never.
This was gonna be a lot harder than what I thought…
