Chapter
Two: Fumigated
DING-DONG!
Sonic hurried to the door, looking through the peephole to discover that
it was none other than his good friends; Knuckles the echidna and his busty
girlfriend, Rouge the bat.
Sonic opened the door and greeted them with a big grin. “Hey, how are
you guys? We almost never see you anymore since you moved in together! What’s
the occasion?”
Knuckles rubbed the back of his head nervously. “Well…” he trailed
off, “our apartment is kinda being… fumigated. And we need a place to stay
for a while.”
Sonic had a look of shock on his face. “Fumigated? What, did you get
attacked by a killer fungus or something?”
Tails walked into the room and laughed. “Oh Sonic, just let them stay.
We have room. I wouldn’t mind letting them stay in my office.” He turned to
Knuckles and Rouge and said warmly, “it’s really no trouble. Come on in,
make yourselves at home.”
The four of them were drinking coffee in the living room. Sonic was
lounging on the couch, Tails was sitting cross-legged in his chair, and Knuckles
was sitting on the other couch with Rouge on his lap.
“So tell me again,” Sonic began, “how DID you guys wind up having
your whole apartment fumigated?”
“Well,” Knuckles replied, “it’s the entire building. A HUGE
Fungus broke out next door to us, so they don’t want anyone else becoming
endangered and they decided to close off the entire building. Stupid if you ask
me, but it’s out of our hands, so here we are.”
“Well,” Tails said, his eyes twinkling with generosity, “you know
you guys are always welcome to stay with us if you ever need it.”
Later that night, Sonic and Tails were in bed, Tails reading his usual
computer magazine and Sonic leaning on his shoulder. Tails finished reading the
article he was looking at and put his magazine down. He looked down at Sonic,
directly into his eyes, with that concerned expression on his face. “Ok,” he
half-sighed, “what’s the matter?”
Sonic looked confused. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Tails sighed. “I know you, Sonic. Whenever you lean on me like that
when I’m reading it usually means you want my attention… so what is it?”
He was a little annoyed, since he would prefer Sonic to just tell him what’s
on his mind instead of sending signals like he usually does.
Sonic sat up in bed next to Tails. “Fine, fine, you got me. Why did you
have to let Knuckles and Rouge stay here?”
“Sonic… is that what’s been bothering you?”
“Well, it’s not that I don’t care about Knux and Rouge… I just
don’t like having to share you with anyone.”
Tails cuddled up in Sonic’s lap and stroked his thigh. “Sweetie,”
he began, with a warm, soothing tone in his voice, “you never have to share me
with anybody. I’ll always be only yours… I love you, you know that.”
Sonic looked away. “I know, but… it just makes me uncomfortable… I
mean, I see the way Knuckles looks at you. It’s no surprise to me that he
wants to get you in bed with him.”
“Sonic, I know Knuckles is gay. It’s obvious that he’s only with
Rouge because he’s trying to make himself straight…” Tails hugged Sonic
tight around the neck, and they could both feel their heartbeats become one
steady rhythm. “… but you’re the only one I want. Nothing will ever come
between what we have together, what we’ve had for so long, Sonic… never
forget that.”
Sonic could feel a tear stream slowly down his cheek as he and Tails
shared a passionate embrace, their true feelings becoming more evident then ever
before. “Jeez, Tails… I love you so damn much…”
“I love you too, Sonic.”
