Chapter 6 - Miscalculation

The moon crossed the sky, followed by the sun. The light shined through the window to Tails’ bedroom. With a red light vaguely being penetrated be the sun, Tails awoke. He opened his eyes, all a blur, and his memory was mixed. Suddenly it all hit him, it all happened. He had sex with Amy Rose. His vision came back and he rolled to his side and found the sleeping pink female hedgehog, not bothered by the sun, not bothered by the world. A big grin stretched across the fox’s face. What a marvelous thing! He must do something kind for his new girl! The fox slowly stepped from the bed, making sure not to awake the slumbering beauty. He quietly made his way to the kitchen, avoiding every object at all cost. Tip toe, tip toe, tip toeing all the way to the kitchen. There he was on a much longer leash. The intelligent one scrambled around the kitchen grabbing bowls, plates, silverware, cups, mixings, milk, bread, butter, eggs, orange juice, all the breakfast delights and in a few short, heat felt movements the fox had swirled together the perfect breakfast - one you’d find on old sitcoms - orange juice, milk, cearal, toast, eggs, bacon, sausage and five layers of pancakes with butter and syrup in their own little bowls. The fox set the hearty meal onto a tray and began carrying it to his lovely girlfriend. A perfect breakfast for the perfect night. Steadily he made his way to the bedroom. He slowly pushed open with his toes and returned to the scene where the magic happened. He wasn’t greeted, the girl was still asleep.[br]

“Wakey, wakey.” Tails began.[br]

Amy was dead to the world.[br]

“Hey, Amy …” He set the tray down and walked over to her and lightly started shaking her, “I got you some breakfast.”[br]

“Huh? … What?” Amy replied snapping out of it.[br]

“I got you some breakfast.”[br]

“Breakfast? …” [br]

“Yeah.” Tails jogged over to the tray and fetched it, much like the dog he is, “See?”[br]

“Oh, uh, thank you …”[br]

“It’s a whole balanced breakfast!” Tails laid the tray on her lap, “Much like the ones you see on those commercials.”[br]

“…” Amy stared at it, spooning the cereal, her mind wandering.[br]

“Hey, you gonna eat?”[br]

“Huh? Oh yeah.” She took a few bites of the cereal and then some of the bacon.[br]

“Well, what do you think?”[br]

“It’s delicious, Tails” With little enthusiasm[br]

“It‘s a little something a learned from my pal, Emeril Lagasse!” He commented, holding a cookbook.[br]

Amy continued to slowly eat the meal.[br]

“So, after your done, I figured we could go catch a movie. I heard Chao in Space Three was pretty good, or maybe Chaos The God of Destruction The Movie is more of your thing?[br]

“Hmm …?” Amy caught note of what he was saying.[br]

“After that we could go swimming in HydroCity, did you know they turned that place into a water park? It’s cool. Then I figured we could go to Green Hill and watch as the sunset shine on the ocean. It would be the perfect ending to the perfect day.”[br]

“Tails …” Amy started, “Why did you do all this? Why are you being so nice?”[br]

“Well, I thought I should treat my new girl like a queen.” Tails happily replied.[br]

“Your new girl? Oh, Tails. I didn’t want to start a relationship with you.”[br]

“What? We had sex last night!”[br]

“Sex is sex. Has nothing to do with love.”[br]

“What?! Sex has nothing to do with love?! Sex has everything to do with love! Or at least it should!”[br]

“Well, I didn’t sleep with you for love …”[br]

“Okay, then why DID you sleep with me?”[br]

“Well, you were being so nice by giving me money, letting take a shower, and offering to get my clothes, I thought I should, you know, repay you.”[br]

“So, you did that because … I was giving you stuff?”[br]

“… Yeah … kind of … Isn’t that what you wanted?”[br]

“If the woman loved me.” Tails voice began to rise, “frack, Amy, if I wanted a prostitute I would hire one!”[br]

“A prostitute?!” Amy’s voice, too, began to rise.[br]

“Yeah, a prostitute! And she’s right there in my bed!”[br]

“You hypocrite, you’re the one who paid me to do that!”[br]

“I was giving you that stuff as a friend! A FRIEND! You know what? Get the frack out of my house you disgusting whore!” Tails shouted and opened the door.[br]

Amy sat in the bed shocked. It took a moment to register in her head what just happened. She slowly arose and made her way to the door with a saddened, frighten look about her. What did she do wrong, now? She reached the door.[br]

“Here.” Tails said and handed her a check, “This isn’t payment for sex, or anything. This is so you can make payments on your house. Because this is what FRIENDS do. Now get outta here!” Tails slammed the door shut.[br]

Amy looked over and saw the train station that would take her back to Station Square. Amy sighed and ran to it. She got to the top and waited. In the distance the train showed. Amy thought to herself, I wish I could be like a train, on a set track and know which way to go. The train came to a stop and the doors opened. Amy crawled in and sat in a seat by herself. Next stop, Station Square.
