Love Me

Chapter 13: Hold Me

Sunlight creeps through the curtains in Tails room as he sleeps peacefully on his bed. He squints and open his azure eyes, he sits up and wipes his eyes when his vision is clear the first thing is sees is... Sonic's green eyes.

All the hairs on his orange coat stand up in surprise and he lets out a shout before backing into the bed frame hitting his head. Sonic snickers and starts laughing, Tails heart is pounding, he's flustered, shaking, blushing.

He retaliates by pushing Sonic backwards off the bed. Sonic shouts and hits the floor with a thud. There's silence after a while so Tails becomes nervous, did he push Sonic too hard? Did he crack his skull open? He slowly crawls to the end of the bed and slowly peaks his head, a hand grabs his wrist and yanks him off the bed.

Sonic is okay, his head hurts a little, but he's okay, Tails lands on top of him headfirst on his chest. Sonic's scent makes his heart fuzzy, his blush gets more intense. Sonic starts laughing again, Tails nervously laughs with him.

"Morning buddy" Sonic says.

"Morning" Tails responds, still intoxicated by Sonic's scent.

Tails gets off Sonic's chest and sits on the floor. Sonic jumps up to his feet and extends his hand to Tails who takes it so Sonic can help him up. When Tails is up on his feet, Sonic goes to look out his window.

"You okay?"

"Yeah... I just wish you didn't see me lose my crap like I did last night" Sonic responds.

"Your reaction, although extreme, was understandable. I would have done the same thing if she tried to have you killed" Tails responds trying to comfort him.

Sonic turns to look at him, "Would you?"

Tails nods.

"I just can't believe she was willing to go that far to get my attention. And I thought she was my friend..."

"Sonic! Tails!" Creams voice shrieks.

When they hear the distressed little rabbit the run out of Tails room to the living room, everyone is gathered around the television. Sonic looks at it and his eyes go wide, Tails is somewhat surprised as well.

"We come to you from the Waterside district where police have arrested the famous hero Amy Rose. Police are charging Miss Rose with premeditated manslaughter and she could now face the newly installed death penalty after an anonymous source last night notified police that Ms Rose attempted to have Miles Prower, the boy genius who helped develop most of the technology we have now, to be killed at her restaurant during a welcome back party for Sonic The Hedgehog. The one she ordered to do the killing, Richie The Tiger was found brutally dismembered in the restaurants freezer. Police now have reason to believe Miss Rose may have murdered Richie after he refused to go through with her request..."

"Not surprised... Dreadful it had to come to this though" Rouge says, then she bites into her pancake.

"Serves her right if you ask me. If it hadn't been for Tails, we wouldn't have been able to advance this far in terms of technology" Shadow says, the black hedgehog sips his coffee and puts the cup back on the saucer.

"I still feel awful for not telling you guys sooner" Cream says, looking down at the floor in shame.

"It's ok Cream... We're not upset with you" Sonic says, putting his hand on her shoulder.

"After all she did threaten you" Silver says whilst lounging on the couch.

"Yeah... You're right... Thanks guys" Cream says, everyone gives her a warm grin, except for Tails who's watching Amy being moved out of a police car on the television.
