A/N: Here's chapter two...obviously, but more to the point I will be continuing this story...only apparently they're going to be short chapters seeing as how when I felt this chapter was finished, it was 14 words shorter than the first. Maybe I will make them longer as time goes on, lets hope so. I will try to update more often than this, what was it? Two weeks since I posted this story? That is much too slow, but I have been busy with work, getting my classes setup for school, and finding time to play games. Which reminds me, I bought Sonic Gems Collection the other day because I wanted to play Tails' Adventure and such and I gotta say, very glad I bought it. Those games kick ass! I LOVED Tails' Adventure, it was so true to how a Tails based game would be. Also, Sonic the Fighters is a pretty sick game. For a game company that made games nowhere near fighting-esque, they did an awesome job on it and I had a lot of fun. Back to important stuff, I'm having fun writing this story again so hopefully I can post more chapters faster and maybe make em a lil longer. That way when you guys do get an update for this story, it won't be a quick 10 min read or whatever. I'll try to work on this at night more than read other stories and watch vids on you-tube. Oh, and also, I read an AWESOME story recently, and it gave me one sick and twisted idea for a one-shot, so I might do that real quick.

It's A Love/Hate Relationship

Chapter 2

"Sonic did what!" followed by several minutes of laughter was what a certain red echidna's response had been. Tails had expected Knuckles to do something like this, so he came prepared with a game device to keep him occupied. He was able to reach the end of the third level on his game before Knuckles had finally stopped laughing...no wait, he just started up again, maybe a few more levels. "Are you done yet? I don't even know how you're able to laugh for that long let alone still find it amusing after all this time" Tails said putting his game away and getting frustrated. "You were the one that told me, I should be able to laugh for as long as I want" Knuckles said stubornly. "Great, now I'm regretting telling you in the first place" Tails mumbled absentmindedly.


"Amy will you settle down? You're acting like a child going to an amusement park" Sonic said as the pink hedgehog had been jumping around, giddy with excitement ever since they left Sonic's house a few minutes ago. "Would you lighten up? This is our first date, I intend to enjoy the hell out of it!" Amy declared as she squeezed Sonic's arm with bone-crushing strength and pulled him through the streets. They passed many onlookers who seemed intent on enjoying Amy's torture as well as making obscene comments. "I don't think I can take this level of embarassment" Sonic muttered, "That's too bad, because we're here!" Amy announced as they stopped outside the new restaurant she had been describing.

"'The New Fancy Restaurant Downtown'? Really, that's the name of it? Well, they sure get the point across" Sonic said as he looked up at the sign. "I told you that! You never listen do you?" Amy said. Sonic eyed her warily before being dragged inside. The interior was quite impressive to say the least. "Welcome to ze New Fancy Restaurant Downtown, 'ow may I 'elp you?" "YOU'VE GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!" Sonic shouted, attracting the attention of many people in the restaurant. "Keep your voice down Sonic, or I'll 'ave to ask you to leave. Thees iz not a...'ow you say, a shoe!" Antione said attempting to calm down the overactive hedgehog in front of him. "First off I think you mean a zoo, although it's hard to tell with that jacked up accent of yours, second, I'll act how I want since I agreed to go along with this" Sonic said, poking the coyote in the chest to make his point. "Geet your 'ands off me! Theese iz my restaurant and you will show me some respect...eef that iz possible" Antione added straightening his bow tie. Sonic glared and was about to reply with a few tasteless words and phrases and possibly a threat or two, but Amy interupted him. "That sounds resonable, we'll take a seat by the window if you have any" Amy said politely. "But of course madam, right theese way...at least some people can be civilized"


"Why are you telling me this, fox?" The Ultimate Lifeform questioned in his monotone voice, "Well I wanted to hear your oppinion" Tails replied sheepishly. Shadow raised an eyebrow and said, "Are you really that judgemental? How many people have you asked before me?". Tails looked down and around while he mumbled incoherently. "Well?" Shadow demanded, "Just...five...or so" Tails said a little louder this time. "Five!" Shadow shouted, "Well...seven if you count ALL the Chaotix" Tails grumbled. "Oh my...seven! Are you serious? What the hell is wrong with you? How can you call yourself a genius, and yet turn around and make stupid decisions liek this? Because your twelve and naive as shit...right" Shadow said, answering his own question.

Tails glared at Shadow for a moment before looking away ashamed. "I'm not that young" Tails grumbled crossing his arms. "You just proved how old you are. You have no sense of how to handle a situation liek this, and this was a basic one" Shadow said, continuing to berate the kit, "Was there any moment where you thought that maybe it wouldn't be a good idea to tell everyone and their mother about Sonic and Amy dating?" Tails gave Shadow a confused look, "I didn't tell Vanilla...well Cream might have told her by now, but that was unintentional!" The black hedgehog massaged his temples to reduce the headache he was giving himself from trying to explain proper edicut to the young fox who clearly had no clue about the right and wrong of gossip. "Well congratulations on spreading the word of Sonic dating Amy faster than wildfire. I'm sure he'll be pleased to find out that something that he probably didn't want people to know about is front page news now"

Tails' eyes widened at the news he received. Sonic wouldn't be mad at him for telling a few people. Okay, so maybe it was more than a few, but noone would care right?... But Knuckles sure did laugh his head off for a while...and Vector did act strangely before running out after Tails had mentioned it to him...and Robotnik was-"N-no! Sonic wouldn't care what people thought about him and Amy going on one stupid date...right?" Tails said unsure of himself. Shadow scoffed, "Of course that faker is going to care! He's so god damned full of himself he'd worry about how his quills looked even if the world was ending! You've known him longer than I have, how do you think he's going to react to everyone knowing about him and Amy going out on a date AND that his best friend just told everyone he knew?"

It took Tails a total of three seconds to know EXACTLY what Sonic would do. "Well, he's going to need a Chaos Emerald, I've got two, one is in my plane and the other I keep stored in a safe...that Sonic knows the combination to, need the change that...you and Silver each have one for Chaos Control purposes...I'm pretty sure Rogue has one that she's been drooling over...I wouldn't be suprised if Robotnik has one lying around, that or it's in one of his badniks. And that's all of 'em!...wait, SHIT! Sonic has one!" Shadow put his face into his right palm before he said, "What does Sonic having a Chaos Emerald have to do with getting revenge on you anyway?" Tails looked at Shadow incredulously, "What does that...it means now he can locate the other six cause he's gonna go Super on my ass!" Shadow snorted at Tails comment, "Right, like he needs to go Super to beat you" Tails shook his head and chuckled, "Oh, that's what you think...I'm stronger than you know" Tails said as he flexed. The Ultimate Lifeform roared in laughter at Tails' rediculous behavior. To prove his point, he slowly walked up and pushed the young fox on the ground. Tails looked up at the dark hedgehog in front of him and tears began to form in his eyes as he began to cry. "Y-you b-b-big meanie!" Tails yelled between sobs, causing Shadow to look away in disgust, however, this was all a ruse. Tails smirked evily as soon as he saw Shadow look away. He got up lightning quick, preformed a sweeping kick which knocked Shadow's legs out from under him, then did a frontflip and smashed his namesakes into Shadow while he was still in the air, causing him to crash into the ground with tremendous force. Tails walked up and looked down at The Ultimate Incapacitated Lifeform. "Gulible much?" Tails said with a cheeky grin, "You...little...prick" Shadow grunted lying on the ground.


"Iz everry-zing to your liking madam?" Antione asked Amy a few minutes after she and Sonic finished their meals. "Why yes it is, thank you very much. You have an excellent restaurant Mr. D'Coolette, great service, great food and a terrific atmosphere to boot" Amy complimented. "I have to admit, I actually had a good time here. It's good to know you can do something worthwhile, Ant" Antione looked at Sonic with a half disgusted, half confused look. He wasn't sure whether you insult the hedgehog or take the compliment willingly. "Ehh, zank you Sonic, and zank you Miss Rrose. Eet 'as been quite a wonderful experience zerving you. At Ze New Fancy Restaurant Downtown, we pride ourzelves on pleasuring our customerz and making sure zey get exactly what zey want. We leave noone unzatisfied!" And that's when Sonic died...of laughter.

Twenty minutes later, Sonic stopped laughing and realized he wasn't in the restaurant anymore. After looking around, he noticed he was walking down the street and nearing his and Tails' house. "I didn't think you'd ever stop laughing" Amy said as she made herself acknowledged. "I'm sorry, you must have completely missed the unintentional sexual inuendo Ant dropped. It was pretty funny, I'm suprised you missed it" Sonic said with a shrug. "I heard what he said, but unlike you I have the decency to hold in my laughter at fancy occasions" Amy said. They walked up the porch and Sonic held out his arm saying "After you". Amy accepted his offer with a "Thank you" and walked through the blown out hole in the wall four feet to the left of the front door. "Hey Tails, we're back!" Sonic yelled as he entered through the front door.

Tails' feet perked up from over the top of the couch, "Oh...hey Sonic...Amy...how did the date go?" Tails said a touch nervously. "Oh it was great! We had a wonderful time!" Amy said enthusiastically. "Oh okay, so Sonic, how did the date REALLY go?" Tails said not believing Amy for a second. "It actually went pretty good, I had fun, Amy had fun, we might have to do it again sometime" Sonic said glancing at Amy who was beaming. "Sorry to hear that, you're not feeling too bad, are you Amy?...wait a minute...WHAT! YOU HAD A GOOD TIME! But...but" Tails said as he fell off the couch for the second time in this story. He looked from Amy to Sonic completely at a loss. There was no way Sonic had a good time going on a date with Amy, it just couldn't be. "Yeah, we had a very romantic evening, huh Sonic?" Amy said hugging the cobalt hedgehog. "I guess you could say that, but it was pretty good" Tails continued to stare at Sonic with his mouth agape. "Well I should be heading home, it's getting rather late. Have a good night Sonic...Tails" Amy said taking her leave out towards her house. "See ya Ames...alright, that's cue for me to go to bed also. Don't stay up too late bro" Sonic said as he made his way up the stairs.

Fifteen minutes had passed before Tails decided to close his mouth...then faint.
