Hey guy's i hope you all had a happy 4th of July! here's a little 4th of chapter for you!

Far Away, Act 2.5: First Kiss. Under the Full Pale Moon?

-T-

Tails sat down on the roof with the others as Hayden and Knuckles ran around the front yard with five minute smoke bomb's in their hand's like two little kids while Sonic and Shadow got the fireworks for Emerl. She couldn't help but laugh at the two when they ran into each-other losing both of the smoke bomb's on the way down, but they didn't look sad and they didn't start fighting (much to Silver's dismay) they just laid there and laughed at their misfortune. Then Hayden stood up and walked over to his friend and helped him up, then the duo walked inside and went up to the roof to wait with her and the rest of their friends.

-H-

After getting on the roof Hayden sat down next to Tails like Sonic had told him too. "Hey there beautiful is this spot taken?" he asked her as he sat down, a light blush appeared on her face "It is now handsome" she told him with a wink. Once again he gave off Hunter's trademark grin as he looked into her sky blue orbs, she couldn't stop looking into his blood red eyes and she didn't even notice Sonic when he and Shadow came back. It was Knuckles that pulled them out of their trance, how? he threw his broken smoke bomb at the back of Hayden's head hitting him dead on. Thus making him fall over on top of Tails both of them gave off a "Ah" as they fell, at this Silver once again went off "HOW DARE YOU!" he yelled while pointing at Hayden.

-B-

Blaze was sitting there watching the whole thing unfold and sighed at her brother's stupidity, she nearly jumped when Shadow sat down next to her holding a big bowl of popcorn. "Hey, did i scare you?" he asked her "Just a little. But you can make up for it by sharing" she told him "M'k" was his answer as he held out the bowl "So...how deep of a blush do you think Tails has right now?" Blaze asked him "I'm thinking...'bout as deep as Hayden's jacket what do you you think?" he told her as he got more popcorn out of the bowl "Hmm... most likely the same color as his eyes" she answered as Hayden jumped up and pointed at Silver while yelling "HOW DARE I? HOW DARE I? HOW DARE YOU!" causing Knuckles to fall out laughing.

-T-

She had a blush on her face that was a new shade of red as she watched Hayden and Silver yell at each-other until Sonic interrupted them saying "Hey! Emerl is going to start shooting the fireworks off in ten minutes! So shut up and sit down!" and almost as nothing had never happened Hayden was sitting next to her again. She looked over at Knuckles and Rouge then at Sonic and Amy, then she looked at Shadow and Blaze. She then looked at Hayden who was also looking at the others until he felt her eyes on him. She didn't know what was going on with her but every time he looked at her she felt her face heat up, she wanted to fall over in guilt when he gave her a worried look "Are you ok Tails? Your face is almost as red as my eyes" while putting his hand on her forehead and then her cheek. "Yeah i'm fine just a little cold that's all" she lied then she felt even worse he took off his jacket and placed it over her shoulder's "Here take it" he said as he put it on her "But what about you?" she asked him "I got a feeling I've been through worse" he told her.

-H-

Hayden looked away from her when he said that, he felt bad but he looked back at her when she mumbled something "Huh? I'm sorry beautiful i didn't catch all of that" he told her as the first of many fireworks went off "I said 'thank you handsome'" she said as she looked down at her lap "Hey why the sad face?" he asked her as he lifted her chin up so she was looking at him "It's nothing i was just thinking that's all" she told him as she lifted herself up in a attempt to close the gap between them. But the moment was ruined by Knuckles yelling from inside the house "HEY SCAR-FACE!" Hayden snapped his head around while Tails quickly pulled back, "What?" Hayden yelled back "WHAT KIND OF SODA DO YOU AND TAILS WANT?" Knuckles asked from inside "Get me a Pepsi-" he yelled " What soda do you want beautiful?" he asked her "A Coke would do" she answered "OK, And get the lady a Coke!" he yelled to his friend as another firework went off "GOTCHA!" Knuckles yelled. Hayden looked at Tails and saw tears rolling down her face so he asked "Are you ok beautiful?" "No...I'm not" she told him "Well what's wrong?" he asked with a worried look on his face "I almost kissed you!" she said as more tears fell. Before any one could talk to them he lifted her chin and closed the gap, her eyes were wide in shock but she quickly closed them and melted into his arms. He broke the kiss and looked into her eyes "Hey guess what?" he said never breaking eye contact with her "What?" she asked "And i did kiss you now no more crying ok?" he told her with a grin as another firework lit up the world.

Happy late birthday USA! hope y'all liked it!
