Sonic X Reader; Behind the Scenes (The Sequel)

Chapter 9

Tangle lead the trio through the city and to her house. While they walked, she spoke to Sonic about the possible living conditions for himself and (Y/N). Turns out she didn't really have a spare room for them, since the only other room she had was completely full of junk, and Whisper was already bunking with her in her own bedroom. The two would have to sleep in the living room.

Sonic nodded, agreeing to the situation, he glanced at the (a/t), who was already resting against his shoulder and smiled. She looked peaceful, as if she wasn't in pain, wasn't stressed out by their huge task ahead. The blue hedgehog knew he wanted to make this trip as fun for her as possible, hopefully it will take some of the stress from her shoulders, and she won't be trying to carry the weight of the world anymore.

"If I have to take the floor, so be it." He shrugged, and Tangle gave him a smile, raising a brow in question. Sonic tilted his head in question, and the lemur shook hers, chuckling.

"Alright then, let's go." She said, getting a bounce to her step as she threw a fist in the air.

~Travel Skip~

Tangle, Whisper and Sonic were now standing in a living room, the grey walls were covered in plants, and an old blue sofa, looking far too worn for wear, sat against a wall, in front of an old, faded coffee table. The place felt messy, and yet it wasn't. It was just packed with a bunch of things, a stack of movies leant into the corner of the room, a side table next to the couch was covered in books and magazines, it was a strangely organised mess.

Sonic took in the room, surprised by the interior; he expected more collectable things, like action figures or comic books on the walls. Tangle had really surprised him today.

"It's like a garden in here." Sonic chuckled, taking a deep breath in, "The air is fresher than outside."

The grey lemur scratched her cheek sheepishly, "Well, a girl can have any hobby she wants."

Whisper, who was standing next to Tangle, nodded in agreement, offering her friend a smile. She then turned to a doorway,

"I'll get some blankets..." The wolf whispered, before disappearing down a hallway.

Tangle watched her go, a lop-sided grin on her muzzle. It was Sonic's turn to raise a brow at her,

"She really knows her way around the place huh?"

The lemur glanced at him, startled. She blinked, her cheeks turned pink, and she crossed her arms as she let out a huff.

"I'm letting her stay until she can find a place of her own."

Sonic laughed and nodded, not fully believing his ally, but not worried about pushing the topic further. Tangle, still very much flabbergasted and blushing, decided to spin the topic back on him. She attempted a sly smirk, adjusting her form so instead of having her arms crossed in defence, it was in defiance,

"So, are you two gonna bunk on the couch together, or will one be on the floor?"

There was a moment of silence, and Sonic glanced down at the sleeping (a/t).

"I'll sleep on the floor." He said, glancing at the couch, "Looks like there's only space for one person anyway."

Tangle rubbed her nose, holding her other hand behind her back, "The couch extends into a bed."

"I'll be fine on the floor thanks." Sonic said again, staring at her, "(Y/N) needs all the room she can get to be comfortable."

The lemur smiled at that and gave an understanding nod. Whisper returned then, holding a few blankets in her arms and Sonic took that as his cue to lay the (a/t) down on the couch. (Y/N) let out a groan, stirring and opening her eyes, her un-slinged hand automatically moving to her side. She looked around the room, taking in the garden-esk space and attempted to sit up.
