A Tails Tale pt 2-The Date

, , , , , , ,


It was the night after my date with Chech. I was expecting to have the house to myself while Sonic was away as usual for the rest of the weekend, but to my surprise Sonic came back Saturday morning. He wasn't with a girl , and I hadn't called him for anything. He came home to hear about my date.

It's funny now but back then it was so strange how just a few hours earlier I believed Sonic had no clue I was gay , and then the very next day he and I were discussing my date. Part of me felt as though it was a trick how easy of a transition it was from him not knowing to him knowing. After hiding something for so long even after you stop hiding you can feel as though you still need to.

I was working in my workshop when out of nowhere he zoomed in picked me up and brought me downstairs to the kitchen table. He sat across from me.

Sonic - so how did it go

Tails- how did what go

Sonic - your date

Tails- oh , it went OK

Sonic- just OK

Tails- it was alright

Sonic - alright and OK are almost the same thing

Tails - you know I could have been working on something explosive, the upstairs could be on fire right now

Sonic - come on Tails , I tell you about my dates and when I go out

Tails - no you don't

Sonic - well I would if you wanted me to , this was your first real date ... with a guy

I looked away as I blushed shyly.

Sonic - come on buddy, you know I'll just keep asking until you tell me

Tails- it's weird, talking to you about last night after... how could you just let me believe you didn't know I was... that I'm...

Sonic - that your gay

Tails - yes

Sonic- I didn't want to embarrass you , I thought you'd tell me when you were ready

Tails - how long did you know

Sonic - I always knew

Tails - what , how

Sonic - don't get me wrong I thought for sure a few times I might have been wrong especially when you went through that season with Fiona , but I always knew

Tails - I can't believe this

Sonic - way back when we had to share a bed you would always snuggle up close to me

Tails - I was a kid

Sonic - and you would grab at me in a way that wasn't too kid like

Tails- I was sleeping I had no idea what I was doing

I stood up from the table and turned my back. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Sonic stood up as well coming behind me and placing a hand on my shoulder.

Sonic - Tails, it's OK , I'm OK with you being gay , and just because you did a few things to help me know before you did doesn't mean anything

Tails- I know , but I just had this whole speech planed out and I was ready for you to ask me to move out

Sonic - I would never do that

I finally turned back around and Sonic met me with a hug.

Sonic - now can I please hear about your date

I gave in , I knew he wouldn't stop asking no matter how awkward I felt talking about it. I found that the more I talked about my night the easier it got. It was almost like advanced robotics, once you git into the conversation it's hard not to keep going.

I told him about how everything went after he left us alone. Chech and I stayed in for a while before we went out to the restaurant. Once we were there the night really started. Chech and I had the best table, on the rooftop overlooking the city so high up we could see mountains.

It was so strange being on a date with a guy , I didn't know what to say or do. So I thought to myself what would my friends do.

Chech- so your a pretty big deal around here

Tails - what do you mean

Chech - I saw everyone watching us when we walked in , I never get that kind of attention so they must have been watching you

Tails - oh , yea I suppose they might have been watching me

Chech - so you must be a usual here or something if people know you that well

Tails- no , this is my first time here

Chech- then where would they know you from

He didn't know who me and Sonic were , It was obvious from the start but I didn't know how. Someone who doesn't know Sonic and myself is rare especially in Green hill. It's where we started, where Sonic and I first fought Dr.Eggman . How could Chech not know. Ether way didn't matter in the end what did is the idea it gave me. I could be like Sonic and show off a little to break the ice.

Tails- well I'm a hero , a super hero

Chech - a super hero

He laughed a little as he looked through a menu.

Tails - yes I've saved this city and all of Mobius countless times

He put down his menu. And looked at me with a grin.

Chech- you saved Mobius

Tails - yes ... well I had help

Chech - then how do I not know you great savior of the planet

He laughed again as he took a sip of his drink.

Tails- I ..I ... I don't know

I couldn't answer, I honestly didn't know how he wouldn't know me. It also didn't help me respond as he looked into my eyes with that defense shattering grin. He was so calm and smooth, that purple furr with black stripes, the way his tail swayed behind him at all times almost hypnotically , it all made me weak. I couldn't find a smart thought in my mind as I looked into his emerald green eyes. I was hypnotized until Chech broke the trance.

Chech- then again maybe your telling the truth, honestly I wouldn't know

Tails - whys that

Chech - I'm not from around here at least not the here most people know

Tails - do you mean your an alien

Chech - no nothing like that , I've been on ice for a long time when that evil egg guy came into power he captured people who only just a few months ago have been found and set free

Tails - and you were one of them

Chech- yes , so I hope you'll excuse me for being behind on a few things

Tails - I understand , I have a friend who's been through something similar, he was frozen for years and when he was finally set free he had no memories no friends no anything

Chech - how is he now

Tails- well he's not one for making friends, and he still doesn't remember a lot, but I think he's better

Chech- That's something

Tails- your a lot nicer than he is

Chech - well to be fair I don't think I lost as much as he did, I didn't have any friends or family before I was captured, I've always been more of a loner

Tails- I'm sorry to hear that , if I knew you before you were caught I would have looked for you

Chech - it's fine , I'm just glad to be free now , and here with you

Tails- I'm glad to be with you too

I didn't catch what I had said but Chech must have because his grin grew a bit wider.

The night went relatively well we talked and ate , and after we were done we went on a walk through town.

Chech - it seems like everyone is on some kind of trend of fancy code names

Tails- what do you mean

Chech - your named tails , your roommate is Sonic there are guys out there who call them selves Silver and Shadow

Tails - my name is actually Miles but everyone calls me Tails because of my ..

Chech - your Tails because you have two Tails , should I be called purple because my furr is purple

Tails - actually your name is pretty spot on in a few ways, you may not know it but there's this movie called Alice in Wonderland that you should probably check out

We walked until we came to a beach. Chech walked into the water and I followed beside him.

Tails - I thought cats hated water

Chech - not me , I love it

Tails- Sonic hates the water , he never learned to swim

Chech - you know you talk about Sonic a lot

Tails - well yea, he's my best friend, he's like a brother to me, he is a brother to me , when my family disappeared he found me and took care of me, I owe him a lot

Chech - sounds like you really love him

Tails - I do

We stopped walking . It took me a moment to realize what I had said.

Tails - as a brother, as a friend, as a brotherly friend roommate type thing

He laughed at my ranting , he was messing with me. I pushed him and he pushed me back. I pushed him again and he went into the water, he caught my tail and pulled me down with him. We both laughed as we splashed around. And just as the laughter ended I could feel that he hadn't let go of my tail yet. I turned my head and he was looking at me with that grin. It was as if time stopped, I was frozen, I didn't know what to do. He started to lean in and I did too , slowly I shut my eyes and felt his lips meet mine. I laid back as he got on top of me . It was a long kiss so long his tail and both of mine started to coil together. Eventually he broke the kiss and stood up. I laid there catching my breath. I've had to run a some unnatural speeds but I've never been so out of breath before.

I opened my eyes and he was standing over me offering me a hand to help me to my feet. He helped me up and we laughed the whole thing off. But our tails were still coiled as we walked on.

I couldn't help but kill the moment, me and my big brain just couldn't let things be.

Tails - I don't mean to move too fast , are we moving too fast because I don't wanna do that

I was lucky that he saw past my nervousness.

Chech - I like you Tails , your funny, your smart , you know a lot of interesting people which says a lot about you , and you seem innocent

Tails- innocent?

Chech- things might have changed since I've been gone but most guys would have tried to get me in bed by now , and with the way your looking at me now and you have been all night I bet you wouldn't mind if that's where this led , but one kiss is enough to get you heated

Tails- wow .... thanks .. I think

Chech- Tails there's a reason Eggman was capturing people

Tails- yea because he was evil and that's what he did

Chech - it's more than that , I'm not just a pilot

Tails - what do you mean , what else are you

Chech- I'm a spy

Tails- a spy?

Chech- Eggman didn't come into power alone , he had help , he put people in all sorts of positions to help him get power

Tails - you worked for Eggman

Chech- I was a spy that he planted in an airport so he could gain plans for specific aircraft, after he used me he captured me and froze me

Tails - why tell me this

Chech- because I'd hate to start a relationship with secrets and lies

Tails- a relationship....

Chech - I know now that what I was doing was wrong and I've had to pay for it , can you look past this

I didn't know what to say but as I looked into his eyes and felt him grab my hands with his own the words came easy.

Tails - sure I can, we all have things we've done that were not proud of

Chech- your just saying that

Tails- no really, I've done things

Chech- I don't see you being a spy for an evil genius

Tail- nothing like that but I've had my moments

I was just getting to the good part when i heard Sonic snoring. I didnt know how long he was asleep for but I stopped my story as I realized Sonic had fallen to sleep and probably would be better off not hearing how the rest of the night went. It was probably for the best Sonic not know Chech's secret as well .
