It was early morning and just then Vector sleeping peacefully in his bed. I had to wake up very early in the morning as he had arranged to meet Vanilla in the park at 9:00 AM.
In your subconscious Vector conversed with Argyle again in his dreams. As before both were surrounded by a bright white color.
"Then you're ready for your appointment today father".
"Yes son, but I'm a little nervous".
"Why? It's not like if you were to find a person you do not know".
"I know. But remember I'm a little rusty on issues related to the romance".
"Okay. Let me advise a bit on this".
"Usually a parent is one who advises his son, not vice versa".
"Well this is one exception. First introduce yourself against it with a small bouquet of flowers in hand and when they deliver you tell a compliment. Women like to talk about their feelings, so when you start to talk to you about you just listen to it and say nothing until the end. If it comes to file a take her chance to hand and convey the feeling that will always be safe with you. And if in the end all goes well come a time when you can kiss her, but only if she is comfortable with that".
"WOW. From where you learned all that".
"Well, when I was still living friends were the ones who gave me that advice. But seriously. You must follow to the letter if you want to form a relationship with her because otherwise all you'll get is scare and become ever want to talk".
"I understand. I will not ruin".
"I hope so. I do not want to see my father alone the rest of his life, much less taking close to a person who could make you happy".
"Thank you son. I appreciate that you worry about me".
"From nothing and now you only have to do one thing and that is...".
"Awake" said a very excited voice.
Vector opens the eyes rapidly to hear that voice saying repeatedly "Awake, awake, awake". When sitting in bed is surprised to see Charmy flying from side to side.
"You do doing in my room and how you came to my house!" said the crocodile.
"In that order came to wake to not be late for your appointment and enter with the spare key that you always leave at the base just in case" the bee said.
I look at the clock and said "But if just 7:30 AM".
"I know. But if nobody woke up, you'd stay asleep until noon".
"Whatever. I'd better start preparing. And you, have nothing to do?".
"Now that you remind me, yes. I have an appointment with Cream".
Vector was surprised to hear what Charmy said. He could not believe he was on a date with the daughter of the woman with whom he was in love.
"Then go to your house to prepare. Surely not want to be late".
"Okay. I have to hurry. Left to meet her in Rory's Restaurant at 8:30 AM".
After that the bee goodbye the crocodile and flew out of the house.
Vector finally got out of bed. I was happy for what he told his friend before he left and said to yourself "I'm glad Charmy finally have an appointment. Apparently already recovered from what happened to Saffron 27 years. Well I have to get ready for mine".
After that the crocodile was given a bath and put out his gloves, shoes and gold necklace. It would take your headphones, but decided not wear that day. If I wanted everything to go well in his appointment was best to let your headset to Vanilla not think he listened to music while they were together.
When he finally left the house were 8:15 PM. He had decided to leave early to do Vanilla wait. When you reach the corner he found a florist where he bought some red roses color. After that he went straight to the park, being quite sure that at the end of the day no longer be alone anymore.
...
Charmy arrived quickly flew to Rory's Restaurant, had done a little late and waited for Cream had not arrived yet. Upon landing in about peered out the window and could see those who were inside, sigh of relief that she had not yet arrived. After that he decided to enter, but when they approached the door he heard a voice behind him.
"I see you've just arrived" said a female voice.
Charmy, hearing that voice, blushed and turned to then say he "Oh, hello Cream. I did not know you were here. Sorry I'm late".
"Do not worry, I also just got here. Shall we go?".
"Oh yes, let's go".
Two minutes later, they were already sitting in their seats awaiting what they had ordered. The bee was telling the rabbit few things about his past and all his friends, except for one person.
"Wow, you had many adventures. I've always wanted to have my own adventure since I was a child, but as I have many skills other than flying with my ears would only be a hindrance".
"Do not say that. If you put your mind, you could become a big help. That's what we always restuarnt me and Saffron when we were younger".
"Saffron? Who is Saffron?".
"Saffron was my fiance since childhood".
"Fiance since they were kids?".
"Yes. Since I was a child my parents wanted me to marry outside Saffron when adult. At first I did not want to be near her and so I escape from home, but over the years again and I fell in love find it".
"What happened Saffron? Why are not you married her?".
"I do not like talking about it, but I can say that because of Dr. Eggman she disappeared forever".
"Dr. Eggman? I've never heard of him".
Charmy was surprised to hear that. I could not believe Cream has never heard of the greatest tyrant that occurred around Mobius planet.
Suddenly the waiter arrived with what was ordered and began to eat quietly.
"Cream, I wanted to ask you something" said the bee.
"What? she asked the rabbit.
"You have you ever been in love with someone?".
"No. Why do you ask?".
"For nothing. Just curious".
The rabbit looked at him for a few seconds trying to guess the real reason why bee asked, but did not notice anything. But as he continued to stare began to feel something different.
"I know that I know very little, but I can not deny that looks handsome" she said to herself in her mind as she watched him furtively.
...
Vector eventually found in the park with Vanilla. She had brought a picnic basket. When they had put the tablecloth on the floor both seated above this food and sat down to talk.
"Wow, I have not attended a picnic long ago" said the crocodile.
"Really? Cream, Cheese, Sonia and I are picnic whenever I have a free day in my work" said the rabbit.
"In my case I have not been a picnic since Argyle was 12 years".
"Who?".
"Argyle is... rather was my son".
"Was? What happened to him?".
"He died recently".
"Oh. I guess you must have suffered a lot. I would suffer greatly if you were Cream to die".
"Yes, I suffered a lot because he was my only company, but I recovered slowly".
"His only company? Excuse me if you asked this, but what happened to his wife?".
Vector was speechless at first, as he had sworn to himself not talk about it in the remainder of his life. But seeing Vanilla eyes could not contain himself and told.
"She left me".
Now Vanilla was speechless and before I could say anything, he continued Vector.
"When we got married at first everything was fine, but shortly after Argyle born everything changed completely. She went every day to various parties and when he arrived at dawn came drunk and disheveled all. To say that every time he came he began to argue with me and sometimes the police had to break to calm her. One day when I had returned home from a mission with the Chaotix listen to Argyle crying. I worry that something bad might have happened and went to see what was wrong. Seeing him out of his crib to see if something had happened, but it was fine, just hungry. I went to the kitchen and prepared a bottle of milk. After giving it I wondered why my wife had not heard mourn. the look around the house and finally found a note from her on the bed. the note said he was leaving me and I had met another if treated her well and shared his same tastes. I was very upset about that, it was not because I changed to another but because in the years never contacted Argyle to check on her. For that reason I had to lie to my son that his mother had died when he was a baby. But it does not finish everything. Ten years after she left I found it and asked me to forgive her and wanted to go with me, that man that went had treated her badly, beat and humiliated. I had finally managed to get rid of him and had been sent to prison. I still had that resentment at her and I said no, I did not want to have anything with her and Argyle not needed and that for him, she was dead. I also noticed they did not want it near my or my child because if I did I myself responsible to call the police to take her away. After that he was crying and I did not know anything more of it".
With those memories Vector could feel several tears came from his eyes and tried but could not help it. While he could not believe he had told Vanilla something that had been hiding several people for long, even his own friends. The crocodile suddenly felt a pair of arms around him and turning his head he saw the rabbit hugging. He could not help himself and returned the hug while still crying.
After about 15 minutes the crocodile and calmed down a bit and said "Sorry. I think I let go".
"Do not worry, I was just venting, that's all" said the rabbit.
"Yes, but this had not told anyone. Even my friends think that my ex-wife died in an accident".
"Do not worry, I promise I will not tell anyone".
After that Vanilla put his hand on the shoulder of Vector hinting that it could rely on it for anything. That made the crocodile no doubt felt the rabbit tell what he felt for her.
"Ms. Vanilla one thing I want to say. I know that we have very little know but I can not keep it a secret any longer. I ... I ... I'm in love with you" he said as he handed the flowers that had been hiding since I got there.
There was another silence for a few seconds.
"Mr. Vector not know how to say it, but I also love him. I know this sounds silly, but I fell for you right after he saved us that day".
"Really? Tell me the truth?" said the crocodile unable to create it.
"Of course, I never lie" said the smiling rabbit as he put his hand on his cheek.
Both captured what the other wanted to do, came in and shared their first kiss as a couple. We both felt a little strange at first, because none of them had kissed another person over 20 years, but gradually were adapted until it finally became a passionate kiss.
...
Charmy and Cream were flying together, after leaving the restaurant had decided to go to a place to relax. As they flew could see the place where Vanilla and Vector were having their picnic and managed to see that they were kissing as they embraced. See that surprised them both and began to think.
Charmy years had been in love with Saffron, but after that never gave thought we'd find someone else until he met Cream and from the first moment I saw her knew he had found the right person.
Cream had never been in love in his life and did not know what it was like to love a person like that, at first when Charmy invited to the restaurant had become happy and over lunch began to realize what I really felt for him.
"Will he be in love with me?" the rabbit in his mind said.
"She is in love with me? I must tell you right now" the bee said in his mind.
Charmy finally took some courage and said "Cream, remember when you ask if you ever had a crush on someone".
"If I remember".
"Well, I'll tell him. I have to be direct and not show nervousness" again the bee in his mind said.
"Charmy, I know what you're going to say and whether, if I may look cute and I like you" said suddenly very flushed rabbit.
"..." the bee was speechless after hearing that, I did not know how she had realized what he was about to say.
"If you ask how I knew it because I saw your face and just guessed. But I want you to tell me yourself with words".
"Eh ... Well Cream ... I like you a lot and I was wondering if you would be my girlfriend" he said, taking her hands between his.
"Of course I do" she said as he walked over and gave her a kiss.
It was a magical moment for both during those minutes that passed. They would not stop the kiss for the world, but when both became short of breath were separated and turned to look into his eyes.
"You kiss well" said the bee.
"And that is the first time you kiss someone" said the rabbit.
At that moment both hear a from under them sound and look towards the sound source Vector and Vanilla see applauding both had seen it all. After greeting them with both hands were there.
Charmy and Cream came flying to a field full of flowers. There were all types and colors. Both were admiring the beautiful scenery. They began to walk around the place, holding hands.
The rabbit suddenly occurred to him and took some flowers (one of each color) and I wanted to do something for the bee. A few minutes had made a wreath.
"Charmy could take your helmet" asked the rabbit.
"Of course Cream, but for" said the bee while and removed the helmet.
"For this" she said as he placed the wreath on his head.
"I'm not saying I do not like this, but you did".
"I always make wreaths for the people who matter most to me around the world and therefore is specially made for you".
"In that case, thank you" he said as he took another kiss.
...
It was already 6:00 PM when Vector carried Vanilla to home. As they walked straight to the door of the house held hands. But they were not alone, as Charmy and Cream were behind them. Both couples were happy for the day they had together. That happiness they felt made four forget all your problems and sad memories.
Vanilla and Cream goodbye to Vector and Charmy respectively giving a kiss on the lips and then entered the house.
Sonia, who was waiting for them inside the house with Cheese at his side, stood glad to see them.
"I see you had a good day" said magenta hedgehog.
"Yes" said the younger rabbit.
"One of the best I've had" said older rabbit.
