Okay, I've just published this fic (or any fic for that matter) WAY later than I intended. Stupid Writer's Block.

This is also kind of a songfic. Watch Me Fly by Crush 40 helped me continue writing this (and even made me a little emotional one time...). Plus, I think it fits this pretty well.

!CHEESE WARNING! You may find this a little cheesy, and I almost feel embarrassed publishing this. But this got rid of my Writer's Block, and reviews motivate me. So here it goes...


Sunsets at Emerald National Park were always gorgeous. If anyone saw one for even the shortest amount of time, they would be changed forever, or so it seemed. Anyone who believes in "seen one sunset, seen 'em all" will think that phrase is ludicrous after a trip to Emerald National Park. Every sunset here might as well be its own postcard. The park is also a favorite place for sketch artists who love to draw elegant nature scenes.

The low-flying clouds reflect the glowing sphere's thermal energy in all different directions, causing the clouds to have a golden lining and also causing the sky to turn colors that were very pleasing to the eye. And if that wasn't enough, you could see every single pine tree was radiant with the sun's life-giving rays flowing over and through them.

On a small hill at the edge of an even smaller clearing was a white, peace loving hedgehog sitting on a bench the park had provided to their guests, far away from the usual distance people would travel to see any sunset. Sitting with him was a lavender she-cat wearing a purple coat. You people know exactly who these two are, Silver the Hedgehog and Blaze the Cat.

"So, why did you want to come all the way out here, buddy?" Blaze asked after taking a small swig from her aluminum water container.

"Well, it's been on my mind to just wanted to talk with you for a little while." Silver answered to his companion. He honestly wasn't sure what her reaction would be to this, as he was never really the talking type. Though Silver has opened up to Blaze before, but she was trying to get Silver to loosen up a little. Never before had Silver wanted to 'just talk' with someone. Though he did really enjoy talking with Blaze. Maybe it was just her company, maybe not.

"Really now? You were never really the talking type, but I enjoy talking with you, and I know that I'm your favorite person to talk to, am I right?" Her tone made it sound like she was indirectly trying to remind Silver of something, but he couldn't remember exactly.

"Yeah, sure..."

"But why did you want to come all the way out here? We could've just gone over to one of our houses or something."

"Well, honestly, I wanted to make this little time together of ours a little more memorable."

"Aw, I had no idea you were so sensitive!"

Sensitive. Silver thought. Being a guy, Silver thought 'sensitive' can sometimes feel like a little stab in the heart, even it was a compliment from Blaze. But it was a nice stab in the heart. "Yeah, I uhh, get that a lot."

"Oh do you? 'Cause I'm the only person you ever 'small talk' with; girl even, and I don't think Sonic or Shadow call you 'sensitive' in this case."

"Okay, you're the first to say that. So uhh...thanks for the compliment...?"

Blaze sighed, and face-palmed slightly. "Ah, Silver, Silver, Silver. No joke, sometimes I really think I'm your mother."

"And this is one of those times?"

"Unfortunately..."

Silver couldn't help but joke around a little. Or a lot, seeing that Blaze was in a tremendous mood. "So can we get ice cweam, mommie?"

Blaze couldn't help but laugh. "Ahh..., tell you what, when we get back home, we'll get some ice cream, I'll buy."

"Oh no, let me buy it, Blaze!"

"Oh, Silver, don't worry, I want to. It's on me."

"Oh okay, fine. If you really want to." Silver tried being a gentleman, but he wont get to really show it now. Now he gets free ice cream. Oh darn.

"I do." She replied while taking another sip of water, as Silver took a sip of his.

There was a brief moment of silence as they took in a little of their surroundings: the sun, the trees, the fresh air, the person they were here with.

After a little time of repose, Blaze decided to start up their little conversation again. "So, was there anything in particular what you want to talk about? I mean, all the way out where there is no one around, it can't be any idle chat like normal, could it?"

Silver felt his heart rate start to speed up a little. He knew that she wouldn't mind talking about a few personal and emotional memories of the two of them. Why was he starting to have an adrenaline rush? Was he starting to think of her as more than a friend? Was she starting to feel that way about him? Were they really friends? Would they really get ice cream afterward? Would the sun set too soon? What is the temperature of Blaze's drinking water? True or False, What is Sonic's name?

Just stay calm. Silver thought. Don't allow yourself to get paranoid like that.

The silver hedgehog took in a deep breath, and proceeded with asking his friend a possible life changing question. "Blaze, do you remember when we first met?"


Correct. It is obviousely not over. More chapters are coming. I hope you can review. Please, I have no job.
