Hey everyone! Sorry about the month long wait. Funny excuse to explain that one. I'm in a new band now so it's been practice after practice. I've been doing writing every day. Not much daily, but enough. I have so many ideas though! Amazing how that happens, huh? I get back into the story and I have so many ideas, that I may have to make a different series after this to fit them all in!
Haha, just kidding. I may incorporate these ideas into my Kingdom Hearts story that I started, "The Loved and The Lost," which I haven't updated since I posted it up a month ago. Ech. I want to finish this fiction first, anyway.
Well, read on for the actual story part!
***Tails' POV***
I woke up the next morning feeling positively amazing. I got out of bed with almost no willpower and pulled some jeans on, walking down the stairs not too long afterward. I got downstairs and saw Shadow on the veranda from the kitchen window. He noticed me and waved. I smiled back at him and went into the kitchen to getting the milk out. Bringing the container to my lips, I took a nice long gulp at the milk. After wiping my mouth with the back of my hand, I pulled my jacket on and put my shoes on, joining Shadow outside on the porch.
"Morning, Tails," Shadow started, taking a drag from him cigarette, "You look well rested."
"I sure am," I replied, stretching. Shadow nodded and held his cigarette out to me. I took it from his hand and took a drag. Today Shadow seemed a lot happier then he usually did in the morning.
"So you're going to the mall with Amy, Knuckles, Skye and Rouge today?" Shadow asked. I nodded and exhaled the smoke I had breathed in.
"Yup," I replied, looking at the weather. It was a beautiful day, the sun was shining and there weren't many clouds in the sky. It was pretty warm, too, for a February morning. "Is there a heat wave or something?"
"There sure is," Shadow replied, giving me a smile. The little snow that was on the ground was almost all melted. It was beautiful.
"I proposed to Skye yesterday," Shadow said, lighting up another cigarette. Those words struck me as foreign.
"Really?" I asked, dumbfounded.
"Yeah," Shadow replied. He smiled and right then I knew she said yes.
"Good job, man. Say, when's she due?"
"Her baby's due soon." Shadow replied, taking a drag of his cigarette. He was being pretty weird, even for Shadow.
"Well, I gotta go," I announced, looking at my phone for the time. "I'm meeting Knuckles at the mall before the girls come so we can just chill. It's been a while since I chilled with him."
"Alright, Tails. I should start getting ready myself, considering that I have to meet Sonic and Silver at FCUK in a couple hours to pick out Silver's tux." Shadow said, pulling a $50 bill out of his pocket. He handed it to me, "That's to compensate for the allowance that I didn't give you when you were in the hospital."
I looked at the fifty dollar bill, amazed. I hadn't held on to one for a while. "Man," I started, still awestruck at the amount of money I held in my hand, "I should fail suicide a few more times."
"Haha," Shadow sarcastically laughed, opening the door and walking into the house.
I put the money in my wallet and started walking toward the mall. Now that I had a good quantity of money, and felt clean, I felt like I was going to have a good day.
I felt my phone start to vibrate in my pocket and pulled it out, seeing that Knuckles was calling me.
"Hey Knuckles," I said into the phone after pressing the talk button.
"Hey Tails, I see you."
I turned around and saw a red Mustang GT turn the corner. It slowed down until it was beside me and stopped. The window rolled down and I saw a familiar red echidna inside of it smiling.
"Need a ride?"
We got to the mall in one piece. Knuckles likes to drive fast with his rap music playing really loud, so I thought we wouldn't make it alive. But we did, in the end.
I had seventy dollars, fifty from what Shadow gave me and twenty from what I had left in my wallet. Knuckles had a credit card, so he didn't have to worry about using all of his money. We were sitting at the spot where the girls had wanted to meet us, Smoothiez R Us.
"When are the girls going to get here?" Knuckles asked, sipping from his cherry smoothie.
"I honestly have no clue," I said, sipping at my smoothie thoughtlessly, "They said two. What time is it now?"
"Two-thirty," Knuckles angrily mumbled under his breath as he checked his watch. I laughed and took another sip of the smoothie. It was really good, I couldn't believe I hadn't come to this place earlier. "They're here."
I turned to where Knuckles was looking and saw Rouge, Amy and Skye walking toward us. I smiled and waved but they didn't seem to notice. They were in such deep conversation.
They sat by us and continued to talk. I heard a lot of I can't believe he did that's and Let me see the ring again, is it real?
"Shadow proposed to Skye last night," Knuckles informed me.
"I know, Knux. Did you forget I live with him?" I laughed.
"Oh yeah…" Knuckles said, losing his train of thought.
The girls' conversation started to die down. Amy looked at me and smiled. I felt my cheeks heat up and smiled back. Knuckles leaned into Rouge and planted a big kiss on her lips, while Skye continued to play around with and examine her ring.
"So, what are we doing today?" Knuckles asked, apparently bored, "I think Tails and I should know, because we don't want to be going around to any chick stores and staring at pink stuff."
"Knuckles, trust me, we're going to have a good day." Rouge said to Knuckles. His face went as red as his hair and he gave off a goofy smile.
"Okay guys, are you ready to go?" Skye said. We all nodded and got up. I left my empty cup behind and linked hands with Amy.
The two of us slowed down a bit so we were behind the other three. Skye and Rouge were talking about a 'sexy' dress that they saw while Knuckles plugged his iPod earphones into his ears to drown them out.
"So, what's up?" I asked Amy.
"The ceiling," Amy said, pointing upward. I laughed and grabbed at her waist. She turned to me and hungrily kissed my lips.
"Guys? PDA." Skye yelled, looking back at us. Amy and I blushed and caught up with the group. There was an awkward silence for a couple moments but as always, Skye broke it.
"So, when are you gonna pop the question?" Skye prodded Knuckles for answers.
"Never. I think my word of commitment is as good as any fancy ceremony. Besides, why would I waste money on that if I can skip to the honeymoon?" Knuckles replied and winked at Rouge. Her face went red but she shook it off.
"Babe, I love you." She said to Knuckles.
"I love you too," Knuckles replied.
We stopped outside of La Senza and Knuckles jaw fell. Skye giggled and winked to Rouge and Amy. My face went beet red and Knuckles extended his fist to me. I gave him a fist bump and we both muttered 'score' under our breath. We walked into the store with Amy and Rouge while Skye stayed outside and talked to Shadow on the phone. There were a lot of slutty looking girls looking at Knuckles and I. Of course they were, everybody knew who we were. I mean, we did help Sonic put the evil dictator, Doctor Robotnik behind bars.
Deep in thought, I bumped into a girl, and her bust accidently touched my hand.
"Sorry about that…" I started to say as I looked up, recognizing the face immediately, "Fiona?"
"Hey Tails," Fiona said, giggling, "It's alright, don't worry about it."
Scourge stepped beside her and gave me a dirty look. I didn't like what was happening so I backed off a little bit. Someone grabbed my arm and pulled me away from the scene in the nick of time. As I regained my balance from the sudden change of direction, I looked up to see who my savior was. Amy saved me but was also laughing.
"Trouble always seems to find you, huh Tails?" Amy giggled. I shrugged and kept on walking with her. She had a few articles of clothing in her hands, and we were heading for the change rooms. "I need you to come inside with me and help me get these on.
"Okay," I said as I felt my face go red. That would mean that Amy was getting naked, or close, since La Senza is a lingerie store. I turned to Knuckles, who was standing outside the change room Rouge was in, who gave me thumbs up. I laughed half-heartedly and gave him one back. Rouge's change room door was then open and Knuckles was pulled in. I laughed.
Amy and I walked into the change room and closed the door. It was really small inside, so half of the time one part of our bodies was toughing a part of each other's. Amy took off her shirt and her pants, so all she was left with were her panties and bra. I blushed and she giggled, pecking me on the lips. She then reached to her own back and undid her bra. It fell to the floor.
I blushed and looked away to be polite. I felt her hand on my chin and she turned my head toward her.
"You've seen me naked before, Tails."
I took a good look at her bust. They had grown since last time she was naked before me. I felt myself grow hard, and I sat down on the stool to conceal it. She then sat on my lap, facing me and kissing me passionately. I kissed her back, feeling her bottom move back and forward. She opened her mouth and I slipped my tongue inside, moving my body with hers in unison. She moved down to my pants and unzipped them, pulling my manhood out. I felt my face go red.
She kissed the tip and inserted the rest into her mouth. I tried to conceal my moan but it came out quietly. One of my hands moved to the back of her head while the other played with her nipple on her left breast. I felt myself getting close.
"Amy, I'm about to…"
"Amy? Tails? You guys in there?" I heard Skye's voice from outside the change room. Amy gasped and put her shirt on and I zipped my pants, keeping them rather low to hide my obvious sexual mood. Amy opened the door and I slipped out.
"Gotta use the bathroom, quick!" I said as I started to walk away. I turned and looked back at Amy, whose face was red. She shot me an apologetic look. I left the store for the bathroom, which was a few meters down. I walked fast because I had to sexually calm down. The vision of her bust was still in my head which made me even hornier. I got into the washroom and walked up to a urinal. After my pee, I washed my hands and threw water onto my face.
Jesus, I thought, I can't believe that happened in a change room.
My phone vibrated because I got a text from Amy. Where r u? It said. I texted her back and told her to get the group and meet me at the food court. Maybe some food would calm me down.
When I got to the food court I saw the group sitting at a table. Knuckles was already munching on a burger while Rouge, Amy and Skye continued to talk about whatever they were talking about. I sat beside Amy and Knuckles gave me a 'Save me!' kind of look. I shrugged and he rolled his eyes.
"Where did you go, Tails?" Knuckles asked.
"To the washroom. I really needed to take a leak," I stated. Rouge gave me a disgusted yet amused look, and Skye didn't seem to really notice. "I'm gonna grab food though, so I'll be right back."
I got out of my seat and joined the lineup at Pizza Pizza. What had happened earlier in the change room was still on my mind. Jeez, a day back from the hospital and this happened already. And the doctors told me to take it easy… Haha.
"Hey," I heard. I turned around and realized that Amy had joined me in the line. "Sorry about earlier."
"It's totally fine," I replied, stepping toward the order section. My stomach growled and I let out a laugh.
"Are you sure?" Amy asked. I turned to her and smiled.
"Defiantly," I stated. I leaned in and kissed her on the cheek. Her face went pink and I laughed, grabbing her hand to hold. "Let's just say that you owe me later."
After we had our lunch, we all went to the Boathouse so that I could burn some of this cash in my wallet. It was pretty fun in there. Knuckles got a pair of Skull Candy headphones for his iPod, while I just bought a pair of jeans. Afterward, we were all leaving the mall because we were all exhausted.
"So, when are you coming back to school, Tails?" Amy asked me as we got into her car. She, being seventeen, was eligible to drive. I was also eligible to get my license, but I hadn't gone in yet.
"Well, the doctor said I have to stay at home for about a week to make sure that I'm okay. So if all goes well, I'll be at school next Monday," I replied. Amy hadn't started the car yet because she was too busy looking into my eyes. I shrugged it off and leaned in and gave her a kiss. "It's seven thirty, Amy. You should get home before your mom."
"Right," Amy replied quietly and started the engine. She pulled out of the parking lot and started to accelerate.
"Do you think we can stop by the corner store? I need to buy a few things." I asked, trying to fill the awkward silence.
"Sure," Amy replied. What is with all these one word answers? Was all that was running through my head. It kind of made me a bit anxious.
It was then that I had noticed that Amy stopped in front of the store. I took off my seatbelt and opened the door. "Be right back," I stated.
I walked into the store and up to the cashier. "One large king size pack of DuMarier, please," I asked.
"I.D?" The clerk asked. I nodded and opened my wallet. After a few moments of me pretending to look around, I sighed.
"I left my driver's license at home," I lied.
"Okay, date of birth?" The clerk asked.
"September 7th, 1989." I lied again.
"Alright," The clerk said, scanning the pack of cigarettes, and handing it to me. I paid the fee and also purchased a lighter. I walked outside and got back into Amy's car.
"Sorry, the store clerk gave me a hard time." I apologized to Amy. Amy turned off the car and looked at me, flashing a short lived smile.
"What's up?" She asked. I rolled down her window and opened my pack of smokes. I gave her a questioning look, and when she nodded, I sparked my cigarette.
"Want one?" I offered.
"No, I quit, remember?" Amy replied, a small moment of silence following, "And you should, too."
"I know," I said, taking a drag from the cigarette, "It's just kind of hard to."
"I know, Tails," Amy said, "But I love you. I always have, and always will. And smoking isn't just hurting yourself, but it's hurting everyone else who you smoke around. And my mom knows you smoke, and she thinks you're a bad influence on me, and I don't want her to think that, because you're the greatest guy you ever met and…"
I cut Amy's rant off with a kiss. After I kissed her, I looked straight into her eyes.
"I promise, Amy," I started, "After this pack, I'm done with smoking. I love you too much to harm you by doing it around you. In fact, I'm going to out it right now."
I opened the door and put the cigarette out, putting it back in the packet for later. I climbed back into the car and kissed Amy on the cheek.
"I know that I have been pretty messed up for the past year. I'm sorry. I don't want to hurt you anymore, and I'm over what happened, honest. For the past year, you were the only thing that kept me alive. And when I awoke from my coma after my… Accident, I realized that life isn't something to take so lightly. I'm here to stay, Amy. Tell me you want me to stay, too. I love you." I said. It felt as if everything that was on my chest was lifted. I felt happier then ever, like my old self again, and I wouldn't trade the feeling for the world.
"I love you too, Tails." Amy replied, kissing me passionately on the lips.
