June 14th – 9 Days Until The Wedding.
It had been four days since Ash had made that call to Mina and since then, Mina had become a nervous wreck.
She had closed herself off from everyone else and hid in her home, on constant alert.
All calls to her phone went unanswered and any attempt to see her was unsuccessful.
Mina laid on her couch, cocooned in blankets, dark circles surrounding her eyes.
She jumped as a knock on the door came.
"Mina, it's Tails, are you there?" She heard, coming from outside.
She said nothing, covering herself more, almost as if to hide from reality.
"Mina please, I know you're there, whatever's going on, I can help." He pleads.
Still no answer.
Tails sighs, resting his head on the door.
"Alright, whatever happened, just know that I'm sorry and when you're ready, I'll be here for you." He promises.
He starts to walk away only to be stopped by a creaking of the door.
It opens to reveal a distressed Mina with tears in her eyes.
Tails quickly brings her in for a hug, which she returns.
Mina brings him in but still stays silent.
"Thank you Mina, so what's got you like this?" Tails asks, only to be met with more silence.
"Well people are worried about you." Tails says, walking over to answering machine, only to see something weird.
"That's strange, only one message, Amy and Sally must've called like 50 times." He says, pressing play.
What comes on disgusts and angers Tails.
"Hey babe, guess who?" The voice he recognizes as Ash says.
"You didn't think you could just leave me, could you?" Ash says.
"Those other girls were just practice, you're gonna love the main event babe, don't worry I promise I'll be gentle, though I may have to discipline you for being such a b-." Tails cuts off the message.
Mina starts to shake and wail out in fear.
Tails rushes to her side, cradling her in his arms.
"It's okay Mina, he can't get you here, you're safe, I promise I'll protect you." He says.
Mina starts to relax but is still shivering from the looming threat.
Tails thinks, trying to find a way to calm her down.
He looks around the room and spots an acoustic guitar.
"Mina, remember what you used to tell me?" Tails asked.
Mina looks up at him in wonder.
"You used to say that no matter how bad things seem, music heals all wounds." Tails said, walking over to pick up the guitar and starts playing.
"I know you remember this one, think you can sing it like you used to?" Tails asks, with a smile.
Mina smiles and unwraps herself from her blanket shielding.
"Only if we make it a duet." Mina says.
Tails nods yes and the two begin.
Mina and Tails started harmonizing, completely in sync as they sang together.
As their two voices faded, finishing the song together, they looked into each other's eyes.
They both smiled and embraced once more.
Mina looked into Tails' eyes once more, remembering Amy's words, and realizing how much Tails cared for her and how much he wanted to protect her.
Mina slowly shut her eyes and leaned in, no longer worrying about Ash, her career or even herself.
All she felt was bliss as their lips met.
Author's Note: Well that was fun, What's Tails gonna think? How's Ash going to take this? Find out next time. Originally there was a full song but I had to edit it out for copyright. Sorry. Anyways Happy Valentine's Day and if you don't celebrate it have a great day anyway!
