Disclaimer: Sonic the Hedgehog and friends belong to SEGA and Sonic Team. This is just a fanfic written by a fan.

It was a beautiful, bright summer day. And all Miles Tails Prower wanted to do was be hard at work with the new airplane he was building.

Sure, he was sweating a lot, but the young fox was so inspired that he couldn't stop himself from making a new airplane. Besides, after all the hard work, drinking some sweet lemonade and eating ice-cold ice cream would hit the spot.

But there was a knock on his door, and Tails wondered who would need him now and that it better have been for something important. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and put down his rag before heading to the door.

"I'm coming!" Tails whined.

When he opened the door, he saw Sonic standing before him, looking smug as he hummed to himself a jolly tune. Tails was wondering what seemed to be on Sonic's mind, but he had to admit he would always be happy when his older brother visited.

"Hi Sonic!"

Sonic flashed a grin. "Hey Tails! I wanted to ask if you were available for something."

Tails thought about his mental blueprint of the plane he was working on. Still, simultaneously, he honestly wondered what Sonic was up to.

"What is it?" Tails said.

"Well, Blaze mentioned how nice it would be to go to the beach, and Cream seemed excited over the idea…"

Tails' eyes widened as Sonic revealed a purple flower he was holding.

"Cream wanted to know if you would like to go to the beach with us as well, Tails."

Suddenly, cogs started to move in Tails' head, and a soft blush formed on his face. Cream? Sweet, adorable, kind-hearted Cream wanted to spend time on the beach with a second-rate hero like him. This almost seemed too good to be true.

"Really?" Tails uttered.

Sonic speeded right next to Tails and gave him a sly grin. "Of course, little bro! Cream really likes you after all!" Sonic winked.

Well, Sonic didn't need to tell him that twice. Cream was always sweet to him, and they were good friends, but did Cream feel the same rush of embarrassing romantic feelings that he felt for her?

"And while we're at the beach, I can hear more of Blaze's deepest secrets!" Sonic exclaimed smugly.

Or, this could be another scheme by Sonic so he could finally hear Blaze confess. Sure, Tails was always supportive of Sonic and Blaze. He felt if there was anyone who could understand Sonic on a fundamental level, someone who fit Sonic perfectly, it was the fiery cat princess. The young fox waited patiently, wondering when those two would finally become official. But the days waiting were becoming long and vigorous.

And at this point, Tails didn't want this to be the Sonic the Hedgehog and Blaze the Cat show!

Tails wasn't going to play hard to get with Cream!

Maybe today, he would finally find the guts to tell Cream he liked her.

…Even if Cream didn't like him back and she only saw him as a friend.

But Tails would play it cool either way. He confidently marched on the beach, wearing his sunglasses on top of his head and carrying a practical floatation tube. The waves would be no match for him. Nothing would be a match for him! Because he was becoming a strong hero like his older brother Sonic every day! He was almost on the same level as him!

But at a distance, two girls stood under two umbrellas. And both of them took notice of him and Sonic. A girl with bunny ears walked into the sunlight with the brightest smile, and the sunshine illuminated the young girl.

"Hi Tails!"

Tails lost his cool as he gasped, and he felt his heart beating out of his chest. He nearly fell over! Tails almost lost his breath, but Sonic kept him steady as he helped the young boy walk over to where the two girls placed their beach towels and umbrellas and towels. Sonic raised his hand. "Hi Blaze! Hi Cream!"

Cream smiled again. "Hi, Mr. Sonic!"

When Sonic finally got Tails to their destination, he gave his younger brother a shake. Tails was able to compose himself as he sheepishly grinned and waved his hand to the young rabbit girl. "Hi Cream!"

Cream giggled as she moved closer to Tails, and Tails' face again turned bright pink. Oh god! He hoped he wouldn't faint.

"I'm so glad you two decided to come!" Cream said.

Meanwhile, Sonic turned to Blaze, and her amber eye gleamed as she flashed Sonic a quick smile before turning to the ocean. Sonic would always get used to that beautiful glint in her eye and how her smile was so warm, even if it was sly.

"Yes, I am so grateful you boys decided to join us," Blaze said.

Sonic chuckled under his breath. "It's great to see you too Blaze!"

Sonic gazed at the cascade blue sea sparkling like diamonds, and the waves were gentle.

"The entire beach is our oyster today!" Sonic exclaimed.

Cream grabbed her inner tube, ready to swim. "And the ocean looks so beautiful!" The young rabbit girl wasted no time running to the shore and jumping into the cool water. Tails felt so nervous as he watched her go and gently reached his hand out to her; Sonic and Blaze were watching his desperation quietly.

Cream looked so happy swimming, but when she turned back, she waved to her friends to call them over.

Tails knew he couldn't just stand around and wait. He questioned how something so simple and amazing could be so difficult for a genius kid like him. But when the little fox breathed and thought about him and Cream swimming and having a good time, he knew he needed to take action.

He took his inner tube and ran across the beach as if racing for the last train at Station Square. When Cream called his name, Tails placed the inner tube around him, but he tripped and fell face-first into the water. Cream cried out for him again and quickly dove in to help him surface.

Tails gasped for air, but then he was stunned to see Cream before him, holding his hands and smiling at him.

"That's a relief! I was so scared you hurt yourself!"

Tails blushed hard. "I'm fine Cream!" He looked away. "Thanks for saving me though…"

At a distance, Sonic was holding an umbrella over Blaze as the two of them walked for the shore. They watched Cream and Tails' interaction intently, right down to every look they gave each other and how gentle they were toward each other.

Blaze slyly ran from the umbrella so she could soak her feet on the shifting waves. Sonic smiled and set the umbrella aside so he could run after her. Sonic enjoyed stepping in shallow water and watching Blaze enjoy herself on the shore and in the bright sunlight. It felt great for the two of them to be in their element but also try to reach out of their comfort zone, and Tails and Cream witnessed the teenager's relationship in awe.

"They're doing it again," Tails mumbled to himself.

Cream moved closer and whispered into Tails' ear. "Looking at each other a lot and knowing?"

"Yeah, exactly," Tails said as Sonic kicked some water in Blaze's direction, and Blaze coyly dodged.

But the two of them eventually noticed Tails and Cream watching them, and Tails and Cream gasped. Sonic and Blaze replied with knowing smirks, and Tails and Cream quickly dived underwater to hide. And when Tails opened his eyes, he saw Cream smiling at him. She swam closer to take his hands, and Tails gasped and caused himself to lose his air. Cream nearly did the same laughing, but she pulled both of them up.

Tails was stunned as Cream continued to hold his hands, and he realized this wasn't a dream. They were swimming together, and Cream was smiling brightly at him.

"Are you ok Tails?" Cream asked him.

Tails paused for a moment, blushing hard, but then he blinked his eyes and smiled back.

"Yeah, I am!"

Cream caught Tails off guard as she led him into the water.

"Then let's keep swimming!" Cream cried.

Just then, Tails felt like the luckiest boy alive.

The fox boy and the rabbit girl felt so energized swimming in the ocean together. Sonic and Blaze didn't know what they were missing as they only soaked their feet and indirectly flirted with each other. Tails couldn't help but laugh along with the adorable rabbit girl, and they were having so much fun with each other that they didn't realize they were drifting in the water. But Tails couldn't feel more alive! It made him wish he found the courage to spend time with Cream earlier. But neither child was aware of the waves getting higher. Sonic and Blaze watched the two younger kids in awe, but their delight turned into horror when they saw rough waves about to splash on Tails and Cream.

"Tails! Cream! Look out!" Sonic cried.

Tails' heart leaped as a big wave towered over Cream. He held her hands tightly as Cream yelped, but it was too late, and the wave overcame her and pulled her under.

"Cream!"

Cream flailed underwater, and Tails dived in for her without hesitation. Cream tried to hold on, but she felt herself slipping as she reached out to Tails, and she fell unconscious. The ocean depth was strong for the young fox boy, but using his two tails, he pushed through and held Cream safe in his arms as he pulled her up.

Tails was relieved breathing in air again and relieved that Cream coughed up water as soon as she surfaced. Tails got a glimpse of Sonic and Blaze swimming to deeper water to save them, but Tails didn't say anything as he used his twin tails to turbo him and Cream back to shore. Cream was still unconscious as he laid her gently on her back.

"Cream!" Tails' voice was shaky as he cupped her face.

"Please be ok!" He cried hoarsely.

Then, the safety protocol he learned echoed in his head, as if fate hammered the answer in his head right on time. His heart thudded as he thought about what he was going to do. It was crazy, but he didn't have time to be embarrassed right now.

Tails lifted Cream's head gently as she stirred slightly. Gently, he placed his lips over hers as he breathed oxygen into her. He did it ever so gently, and it felt as if time stopped for a moment, but Cream still wouldn't open her eyes.

Tails kept filling her with gentle breaths, pleading and saying her name multiple times until Cream gasped. Tails lifted himself to give her some air and allow her to cough multiple times.

"Cream!"

The little rabbit girl needed a moment for her vision to come back into focus. But eventually, she saw Tails looking scared to death over her, and her brown eyes sparkled as if she saw the sun for the first time.

Her heart thudded fast when she realized that Tails saved her from drowning, and she found the strength to pick herself up, but Tails became even more frantic.

"Take it easy Cream!" Tails cried as he placed his hands on her shoulders, making Cream blush even more.

Cream froze briefly before blinking, and then she finally moved her lips.

"But Tails…"

Sonic and Blaze quickly ran for Tails and Cream as they called out for them, but they were taken aback by seeing Cream wrap her arms around Tails and hugging him tightly.

"You saved me!" Cream cried.

Tails felt so much shock as Cream hugged him so tenderly, but this time, he found the strength to hug her back as if to protect her, and the two children forgot about everything else at that moment.

Blaze smiled warmly, and Sonic shrugged.

"Well, there you have it!" Sonic said.

The rest of the day was quiet. Tails and Cream stuck together as if they were inseparable, and to be fair, Tails nearly had a heart attack after that close call. Cream was also a bit shaken up, but she could still smile with Tails by her side. The sunset on the beach drew near, and both children found the courage to move closer and watch the orange sun on the horizon.

But then Tails thought about how Cream nearly drowned, and he sighed, which caused Cream to perk her ears up and quickly try to comfort him.

"I wish the ocean wasn't so scary at times. Our beach day nearly got ruined," Tails said.

Cream shook her head as she took Tails' hand.

"Today was the best day ever!" She said.

Tails was so confused as Cream smiled at him with determination. The sunset helped the adorable rabbit glow and Tails' heartbeat a bit faster as he felt relief inside him.

Tails took her hand in his and smiled back at her.

"I'm just happy you're ok Cream."

The two children walked hand in hand as they met up with Sonic and Blaze again, just about ready to leave the beach for the day.

Tails and Cream walked ahead of them on the empty road as the sun set. Sonic and Blaze were still a distance apart, even if they enjoyed walking side by side. But Blaze still teased him with beautiful glances from her amber eyes.

Tails and Cream were growing up, and it made Sonic internally groan because he felt Tails and Cream were closer than Blaze and him were. And even though Blaze didn't wear such emotions on her sleeve, she admitted it was fascinating that Tails and Cream were progressing. Still, she had difficulty conveying her complicated emotions for Sonic the Hedgehog. And that the great blue blur couldn't say anything bold to her, and they would always run around in circles together.

But Sonic knew he would tell Blaze how he felt one day, or maybe she would just admit that she thought he was amazing and the guy she was crazy for.

But for now, he would try to reach out his hand for her, and her hand would brush it. And then both of them would play around again until one day, the sacred flame and the sonic wind would ignite this slow burn into something incredible.

But they had to be pleased with the two kids that were practically younger siblings to them. They were adorable together, and they would always support them.

So, after a moment of bitterness, they had to silently congratulate Tails and Cream for coming so far on this ordinary beach day they planned.
