How many green hedgehogs could there be? The answer seemed to be not many , or at the very least on Dirk. There were a few places on the islands that only thieves and criminal underground were allowed access to. The number one hide out for anyone looking to lay low and get a little high was Sea maidens Barge , a bar on the outer most edge of the Islands hidden by the jungles overgrowth. Then there was The Wondering Oak , a hotel built with the purpose of offering safe haven to anyone on the run , only catch was a entry fee of half the bounty on your head. Lastly was the place Id hoped to find him , my beach hut. I was a well known con man in the industry and more times than I can count people would turn to me for help rather than the high end locations. I charged a fee less than the the other two options so low that I was basically stealing their customers. I am a con man after all.  
  
But unfortunately My beach hut was in ruins , it had been hit by a coastal storm two years back. The islands had no real form of government so no one was going to take down hut, and it was in to bad a shape for anyone to potentially claim it as their own. Lucky me , I still had bed to sleep in and a roof over my head. Out of all the safe houses I left behind I think the beach hut was my favorite, so it was hard seeing it with holes in the walls and sand in the furniture that I worked so hard to steal.  
  
I woke up the next morning groggy and hungover. I spent the previous night turning my purple fur green with cheap bear, I needed something to take my mind off of Tails following me and Manic being gone. So you can imagine my displeasure when the first sight my eyes opened to was Tails standing in the doorway watching me sleep.  
  
Chech- fuck  
  
He came closer as he realized I was awake.  
  
Chech- I told you to leave , and you said you would give me space, this is not space  
  
Tails- I couldn't just go home after I tracked you here  
  
Chech- you said you would wait at a hotel until I was done  
  
Tails- I know but you were so close and I missed you  
  
Chech- I missed you too  
  
Why did I say that ?  
  
Tails- then just tell me whats going on , why did you leave  
  
Chech- its complicated  
  
Tails- I can handle it  
  
Chech- I'm sure you can but I cant  
  
I got out of bed and got dressed.  
  
Tails- are you drunk  
  
Chech- what , no , I'm hungover  
  
Tails- but you don't drink  
  
Chech- I do now  
  
I made my way out of the hut and Tails followed behind me. He stopped me before I could get beyond the beach.  
  
Tails- we spent an entire year together, I said I love you... and you said it back  
  
Chech- oh so now you think I belong to you or something, look fox it dont work that way  
  
Tails- but why  
  
An entire year of playing the part of a romantic made me soft. He didn't know me , not the real me , he fell for a role. But that role was big enough to stay with me even after realizing who I really was. He was not making it easier to stop loving him , and I really did love him. Every word that flew from my mouth felt like metal shards cutting my tongue because on one hand I was telling the truth but on the other it would be so easy to change the truth.  
  
Chech- you know I was on ice for a long time  
  
Tails- yes  
  
Chech- well it took longer for parts of me to thaw out than others , one of those parts being my memory  
  
Tails- so you remembered more about your past , what did you remember that was so extreme that you had to run away without any warning  
  
I couldn't, but maybe I should have. The truth would have saved us both time and pain in the long run.  
  
Chech- a long lost friend of mine , from before Eggman did what he did to me , I remembered him , and I don't know if Eggman killed him but I came here to find him  
  
Tails- you could have told me you were looking for a friend, look at how fast I found you, I can help  
  
Chech- that's not all that I remembered, Tails the person you think you love is just a character its not real  
  
Tails- how can you say that  
  
Chech- because its the truth, I'm a con man, I was a con man , and the person I was with you was just a fictional character I created , it was the only thing I remembered when I was unfrozen  
  
Tails- and now that you remember everything...you dont want me anymore  
  
Fuck. Fuck .Fucking hell.  
  
Chech- I didn't say that  
  
Tails- but that's really why you left  
  
Chech- I didn't say that, look I asked you to stay away , I asked you for time  
  
Tails- time to do what  
  
Chech- to...I don't know  
  
Tails- time to move on  
  
I didn't have much to say after that.  
  
Chech- look I'm here to find my ... my friend, stay or go obviously this isn't something we should be discussing while I'm hung over  
  
Tails- do you want me to stay , or do you want me to go  
  
I could have set him free right then and there, but what can I say I'm not a nice guy , certainly not a good guy. A better cat would have told him to leave. But I'm selfish and I suppose If I couldn't have Manic yet what would be the harm in keeping my smart fox around.  
  
Chech- stay  
  
It was a nice day out, tides were smooth, sun was bright, and the trees smelled like fruit. So why did I feel so wrong? Must have been the hang over.
