Sonic High School Story Ch 17

The Next Moring

Sonic again, was the first to wake. He looked over at the clock and saw that it was only 4:47 and he really didn’t have to get up until 5:50. However, as he sat in his bed, he couldn’t drift off to sleep. He then quietly slid from under Blaze and made his way down stairs to get something to eat. As he walked down stairs, he noticed that the kitchen light was already on. Once he walked into the kitchen, he saw his Uncle Chuck drinking coffee and reading a paper. Chuck looked up at Sonic and smiled.
“Hey there.” He said quietly. “I didn’t expect you to be up.”
“Yeah well when you have the energy that I have, you can’t help but be active.” Sonic said smiling.
“Well considering last night, I’m quite surprise.” Chuck said still looking at his paper.
“Wh-What?” Sonic asked nervously.
“You always had a hard-head so I wasn’t surprised.”
“So you heard, huh?”
“Well I woke up around the time you screamed, “Blaze you goddess!”, then I couldn’t get back to sleep.”
Sonic scratched his head nervously. “Sorry Uncle Chuck. But just being around Blaze makes me feel more alive than anything.” Sonic said talking his seat.
“I’m glad that you love her, Sonic.”
“Yeah, more than anything.”
“Having that said,” Chuck then placed his paper on the table. “I think you’re moving too fast, Sonic.”
“Come on Uncle Chuck.” Sonic laughed. “I’m “The Fastest Thing Alive”, remember?”
“I’m serious Maurice.” Sonic looked up at his uncle with shock. Only his family knew him by that name and if they called him by that, he knew he was either in trouble or he needed to listen.
“You… you really think so?”
“Yes. Look, I understand how you feel. Love is a very powerful feeling. But, if you rush something like love, you may end up destroying it. You two are young; you shouldn’t be trying to use up all of your intimacy so early in a relationship. Do you understand?”
“Yeah I guess so.”
“Besides… you don’t want to make it anymore complicated than it already is.”
Sonic looked up at Chuck. “What so complicated about love? You love her and she loves you. What’s the problem?”
“Kids Sonic. The responsibility I know you can’t handle, nor want to.”
“Blaze said she was on the pill. I think we’ll be fine.”
“Birth Control Pills don’t work 100 percent of the time, Sonic. Having a child is something you don’t want to chance.”
Sonic sighed. “Yeah I guess you’re right. I mean even though we are going to the same college, we don’t want a kid until we’re ready.”
“Good. Besides. If your kid is anything like you, they’ll be a handful.”
“Whadda mean?”
“You were quite the handful Sonic, believe me. Once when you were 4-years-old, your mother placed the cookie jar on top or the refrigerator in order to keep you and your brother and sister away from it. And as a result, you knocked down the frig just to get them.”
“Really?” Sonic laughed.
“Yeah. And potty training was horrible for you. I remember one time you took off your diaper and ran around with it on your head. Then when you father found you, he picked you up so he could change you but did a number 2 right on him!” Chuck laughed while Sonic was laughing with him. “And if you think that was the only time your Jules had trouble with you, then you’re dead wrong. At one point, he was trying to change you on the table. He went through everything as planed until it came time to put the diaper back on. Right when he was about to, you did another one right on the diaper before he had the chance of strapping it on you. Then once again he had to put the powder and everything else on but right before he could, you peed in his face!” Sonic and Chuck practically lost there minds laughing.
“Wow! Are you serious?” Sonic asked calming himself down.
“Yes. It was all true.” Then the two heard giggling coming from upstairs, and when Sonic leaned back to see who it was he saw Blaze standing in her pink night gown giggling to herself.
“Blaze!” Sonic shouted as he almost fell out of his chair. Right after Blaze began to walk downstairs. “Blaze, I’m so sorry we woke you!”
“It’s ok.” Blaze said calmly. “I was enjoying the story telling anyway.”
Chuck just smiled, “Well then sit down, I’ve got a lot more where those came from.” Sonic and Blaze sat down at the kitchen table with Chuck as he began. “Well I remember the time when Sonic took his first steps. As a matter of fact, it was right here in this very house. You were about a year and a half years old Sonic and it’s amazing that out of the three of you that took the longest to learn how to walk, you developed the best footsmanship in the world. But even still, when your mother tried to help you learn, it was a disaster. You were always falling and every time you fell, you would lie on the ground crying. But even still, you never gave up. You kept trying no matter how many times you failed. Then when you finally took your first step towards your mother, it was the proudest moment of your little life. It didn’t take you long to grasp the concept of walking and right after, running. Especially one day when your parents and I came back home and you were running on the walls like a maniac.” Chuck sighed as he took a sip of his coffee. “But there were other times where Sonic wasn’t exactly the best kid around.”
“Like when?” Blaze asked with interest.
Chuck smiled. “One time, when Sonic, Sonia, and Manic were six years old, Sonic and Manic decided to take one of Sonia’s doll’s and strap it onto a rocket and tried to send it to orbit.” Blaze looked over towards Sonic while he scratched his head and laughed a little. “But when the family saw fire outside, we ran out to see what had happened only to see Sonic and Manic yelling “Blast off!” as the rocket took off with Sonia’s doll. Soon after, the rocket exploded in mid-air blowing up the doll in the process.” Sonic just laughed harder as Blaze stared at him. “Yeah Sonic keep laughing,” Chuck continued. “The real funny part is just around the corner.”
Sonic just sighed, “Oh boy.”
“Well,” Chuck continued. “After seeing this, Sonia began to cry. When we tried to comfort her, she began to get really angry. We saw her walk over to Sonic and Manic who were still laughing and she literally smashed both of them straight into the ground. I think that was the first time we ever saw Sonia’s super strength.” Blaze looked over at Sonic who was sporting a frown, which made Blaze grin.
“Yeah she may not be as strong as Knuckles, but she’s a close second.” Sonic sighed rubbing his head.
Blaze blinked a few times. “But Knuckles is the strongest person in the world.”
“Like I said, not as strong, but a close second.”
“Wow, she must be very powerful.”
“Well that was before her powers developed.” Chuck added. “But if anyone of them was a demon, it was Manic.”
“What do you mean?” Blaze asked.
“Well every time they would come over, Manic would like to play the; “Let’s hide Chuck’s things so he can’t find them ever again” game. He was so annoying sometimes.” Chuck sighed.
“Really?” Sonic laughed.
“Yes. Like one time he took my remote and hid it from me. It would be two weeks before Sonic over here would find it on the roof.” Chuck took a sip of his coffee. “I still have no idea how Sonic or Manic even got up there in the first place.” The three laughed at this comment. Chuck was the first to settle down and looked up at his nephew to see him grinning. “Yeah, I still remember the first time we saw that grin.”
Sonic paused to look at his uncle, and then he grinned again. “Really? When?” Sonic asked.
“Well it was when you were four-years-old and we were all having a picnic on top of a nice-size hill. During the picnic, Sonic was playing with his ball and the ball rolled down the hill. And being a little kid, Sonic chased after it in his ball-state trying to catch up to it. It didn’t take too long before we all noticed that Sonic was missing and we frantically began to look for him. Luckily, Jules, Sonic’s father, spotted Sonic rolling down the hill and into the street. As we tried to catch up to Sonic, Sonic on the other hand had no idea what he was doing. As he rolled into the street, he bounded off the front end of a car, which launched him into the air. As a result, he bounced off of someone’s head, and kept moving forward passing his ball. After that, Sonic rolled right up a slide, which flew him into the air, and right through a window. After a while, Sonic flew right through the window on the other side flying into a pile of construction bricks. Seeing all of this caused your mother to faint forcing your father to carry her the whole way to your little wreckage pile. After we reached Sonic and after the smoke cleared, we all saw Sonic on the ground laughing and completely unharmed. Once Aleena, his mother finally awoke, she just took Sonic in her arms hoping he was fine while Sonic just laughed. And once Aleena let go of Sonic, he stood there sporting the largest grin I’ve ever seen on him.” Chuck smile as he placed his cup of coffee on the table. Sonic grin turned to a soft smile.
‘I remember that.’ Sonic thought. Blaze just smiled as she leaded her head onto Sonic’s shoulder. Chuck looked up at the clock which read; 5:34.
“I’ve got to go.” Chuck said as he got up from his chair. He took his coat from out of the closet and walked over to the front door, and then he turned back to Sonic and Blaze. “Sonic, remember what we walked about.”
“Sure.” Sonic said with his usual grin. Chuck then smiled and walked out. “Well that was fun.” Sonic said.
“Yes it was,” Blaze added. Sonic then began to kiss Blaze. “Sonic… your uncle just said that we should slow down, remember?”
Sonic stopped to look at Blaze. “You heard that part?”
“Yes, I think we’re moving too fast as well.”
“Aww but Blaze.”Sonic wined.
“No “buts” Sonic.” Blaze said giving Sonic a stern look.
“Fine.” Sonic pouted.
“Maybe we should worry more about school Sonic.”
“Hey remember what I said? No talk about school until we’re in school.” Sonic said getting up from his chair and sitting on the couch. Blaze just sighed, followed Sonic, and sat next to him laying her head in his chest.
“Sonic, you seem to be more like a kid than a teenager.”
“Yea well… whatever.” Sonic said trying to think of a comeback.
Blaze just giggled. “What should we do?”
“Well…”
“Not that!”
“I wasn’t thinking of that but…”
“NO!”
“Ok-ok. I don’t feel like doing anything.”
“Really?” Blaze asked sarcastically.
“Naw I just wanna hold you.” Sonic said griping Blaze tighter causing Blaze to purr.
“How do I know you’re not going to try something funny?” Blaze asked between purrs.
“Cause I love you. And if you don’t want to do that, then neither do I.”
“You want to, but you can’t” Blaze corrected him.
“No I mean it. I like this more than anything.”
“What?”
“This right here. You and me. Just having you so close is just… perfect.” Sonic and Blaze sat there in silence until Sonic looked up at the clock which read; 6:23. “Blaze, if we wait any longer, we might late.”
Blaze looked up and smiled at Sonic as she got up and began to walk up stairs. To Blaze’s surprise, Sonic didn’t follow her. “Is there something wrong Sonic?”
Sonic looked up at Blaze with a smile. “No. I’ll take my shower after you.”
Blaze couldn’t help but smile. “I think I’m growing on you.”
“What do you mean?” Sonic asked in confusion.
“Your maturity is growing.” Blaze said as she walked upstairs.
“Same to you! You’ve been a lot more exciting since we started hanging out!” Sonic called upstairs.

Later At School

“Hey Tails!” Sonic called out to his little brother.
“What’s up Sonic!?” Tails called back. The two walked over to each other and gave each other a pound. “So we still on for tonight?”
“Yeah, you bet.” Sonic said giving a thumbs-up.
“What does he mean Sonic?” Blaze asked walking over to them.
“They’re hanging out tonight.” Cream said walking over.
“Why didn’t you tell me, Sonic?” Blaze asked.
Sonic scratched his head. “I thought you knew.”
“If you have nothing to do then you could come with Amy and me to the mall, Blaze.” Cream said smiling.
“Sure.” Blaze replied. Blaze then turned to Sonic, “I’ll see you tonight, ok?”
“Of course!” Sonic replied happily. Blaze just smiled as she and Cream walked off. “So buddy, what’s first?”
“Well we could go to see-” but just then the communicator his watch began beeping.
“Tails! Eggman is in attacking Station Square! Fine Sonic and stop him right away!” Said a voice over the communicator. Sonic and Tails looked up at each other grinning.
“So do you wanna scramble an egghead for old time’s sake?” Tails asked grinning.
“Do you even have to ask!?” Sonic said as he and Tails took off at the speed of sound.
