CHAPTER… 16 :D

The day passed by quickly and peacefully, as noon turned to dusk, the day had kept its serenity. Me and Silver had spent all day home, practically sleeping, eating and talking. I like how he could tell me about what he thinks. He has such great ideas for his kingdom and yet... Cameron, his father, won't allow him to rule for another 4 years... On the other hand Ruby, his mother, wants him to rule right away so she can retire... I'd take his dads side any day...

It was around 7p.m, I'd have to say... The coldest summer night ever. Silver helped me open all the windows, I turned off the a.c, and we quietly sat on the patio in the backyard.

"So, Amy..." Silver looked to the sky and back at me.

"What's up?"

"I love you." He smiled broadly at me.

"I love you, too." I gave a puzzling look and smiled awkwardly, I wasn't used to hearing 'I love you's' out of no where...

"Yea. The look on your face says it all, I had to say it, to really prove to myself and you, that I DO really love you." He kissed my cheek and stared to the sky.

I sat quietly, feeling his lips press on my cheek, I then looked up at the purple and pinkish sky line with the stars that had only begun to wake. It was pretty, and surreal, just as the scenery in the field. I missed Silver, ill be honest the last time I heard from him it was valentines day... My birthday, when I was told off in front of Everyone... Before i let the thoughts continue, I quickly changed the subject...

"Silver?" I asked.

"Whats up?" He looked back at me again and had the most tranquil look on his face. Dazed almost.

"Do you want to do something later?"

"Oh, I could take you to dinner like I promised two nights ago!" He chuckled, snapping back from his dazed look and I smiled.

"I would love that."

By 8 oclock, both me and Silver had gotten changed and ready for dinner. Silver decided to take me to the Aquarium Parks Sushi Palace. I had a thing for fish... Never knew why! Hehehe. Silver wore a blue and gray striped button down with his sleeves rolled up, gray shorts that went a little past his knees, and blue, black, and gray lowtop sneakers. I had worn a red halter top with a white and gold jewel in the middle of my bust, black caprice that opened up around my calf and black flats. I had gotten a red floral pin and clipped it behind my ear.

With all that done, I carried my terminal I'D, my keys and my phone, and Silver carried his phone and his money.

"Ready?" I asked as we walked to the front door.

"Definitely."

We begun walking to the terminal. Taking in the bright lights that lit the streets, everything felt brighter. My eyes, my heart, everything around me! I still find it so hard to believe I was stuck on Sonic... Like... What the HELL? Silver is so sweet, kind, respectful! ... I don't think he deserves me...

I put on a puzzled face. I stared at my feet and quickly noticed we reached the terminal too late. Aquarium parks terminal had just took off, and the next wouldn't be for another hour.

"Oh, man..." Silver slouched. I could tell he really wanted to have this dinner, so now, it was MY turn to contribute in a date!

"Wait right here." I started off towards the security tower to look for the guard that found me last night, remembered something and looked back. "And be careful."

Silver chuckled sheepishly and waited by a market stand, sweat dropped and waved.

I giggled and continued my search for . I asked around the base and then asked to Go to the HQ to ask about the shuttles.

I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up... Before I finished my sentence they shoo'd me away! Defeated, I walked back to Silver standing in the same position I left him in and smiled.

"What were you looking for?" Silver asked as he rejoined my elbow and met my eyes.

"Mr. Zimerson, he's a very nice security guard that helped me home yesterday... I just wanted to see if he was here today." I shuffled my foot around, kinda disappointed that I couldn't find him.

"Oh. Was he about this tall?" Silver raised an arm to about up to the top of his quills, "kinda chubby? And have a scruffy white beard?"

"Yeah! You saw him? Where?" I needed to see Zimerson, I needed to thank him for bringing me home, and ask about the employer shuttle...

My thoughts ended when Zimerson walked up to Silver shaking his hand, "Thanks for that info on the bastards that got in a couple nights ago. Amy! Do you know this fella?"

I smiled widely at Zimerson, he was so nice! He didn't take no ones bull crap and he was dedicated and individual for some time, I heard his wife died if cardiac arrest because some people decided to try and break in two months ago... He has my support. Now I see why he was so strict about me being by the terminal so late.

"Zim! I'm so glad to see you! I simply MUST thank you for last night... I was so upset," I grabbed Silvers hand, "thank you so much, Zim."

"Aww, Amy. You're too sweet on me!" The old man fixed his glasses and looked at Silver. "Is this Fella your mate?" He tugged my ear a bit and whispered.

I giggled, his breath tickled my ear and I hugged Silvers arm tightly, "Yes, he is."

Silver looked confused but hugged me all the same. Silver noticed the man had an enormous key ring, with multiple keys all the way around. "Mr. Zimerson?"

"Why, yes, Fella?"

"Are you the only security guard stationed outside the terminal?" Silver was looking hopeful, maybe he'd get a job close to home so he wouldn't worry me?

"Wouldn't you like some help?" I piped up, not trying to seem like Silver's in this alone.

"Well come to think of it... I am the only one around the terminal outside... Hmm, Amy, where you and your mate goin'? I could probably help!" Zim thought for a while, his eyebrows raising in realization.

"The Aquarium park. That was something else id like to ask about!" I said, I had completely forgotten that I wanted to ask him about the employer shuttle.

"Ah, the employer shuttle? Be my guest! It hasn't been used ever since that last blow out in space, we fixed it, I'm honest! It works like a charm! But everyone is still too nervous to be caught in space." Zim chuckled and headed over to an empty depot where a large pod with four legs and two antennae poked out on top.

The depot wasn't supposed to be empty, it had a spots where the people would buy their tickets and wait but it hadn't been used.

"I believe in you, Zim. You wouldn't have any reasons to lie." I smiled and I knew it was true, Zim always said 'lying wont even protect yourself, reality will get you, one way or another.'

As we walked up to the shuttle, Zim turned a key into an outlet close by and a large hum of the engine gave sign it worked perfectly. Zim stepped inside and set Tue master coordinates for the arrival at Aquarium Park, and the arrival back home.

"So, its 8:27 now. The departure time is 8:30p.m... What time would you be comin back?" Zim called from the control room, I looked up thinking and before i even decided, Silver called back.

"About 11!"

"Got cha'. All set up for yah, Amy. Please take care o her...?" Zim stuck out his hand to Silver.

"Silver." He said with a smile, returning Zim's handshake.

"Amy, I could tell, he's a good kid. Oh, ill talk to my boss about the extra help, Sil! Get goin kids! It's leaving in a minute!" Zim pushed us gently onto the ramp and we climbed the rest of the way up, turning around to wave good bye.

SPELLING CHECK! God, i hate my phone sometimes -_-"
