Yall I'm stupid... No joke thought I already posted this part a few days ago until somebody messaged me and I checked, lmao. Also I was busy watching longmire, getting the peacekeepr in bf1, and playing Medal of Honor VR

This part might be a bit shorter than the others

Y/n Pov:

I just stood there, shell shocked. My vision was in yellow, similar to Dead-Eye, except there was a ticking sound like a stopwatch. I was in the middle of a field, frozen. A battlefield to be exact. I didn't know how I got there, but only thing I could do was close my eyes and pray for the best.

I woke up, sweating. Sonic was staring at me from above. His lips were moving but I couldn't hear him. My ears were ringing, probably because I was asleep. I think.

I regained my senses and heard Sonic

Sonic: "Y/n? Y/n! You good?"

Y/n: -sleepy- "Y-yeah... I think so."

Sonic: "What? It's a yes or no question..."

Y/n: "Nice."

Sonic was just visibly confused, you couldn't comprehend much due to just waking up.

Sonic: "Well. Guess what!"

Y/n: "What?"

Sonic: "It's Christmas!"

Y/n: "Wait... Is it actually?!"

Sonic: "Yep!"

Y/n: "Oh... I forgot to get gifts for them!.."

Sonic: "I'm sure they won't mind."

Y/n: "You sure?"

Sonic: "A hundred percent!"

Y/n: "Huh- Well... Should we go downstairs?"

Sonic: "Sure. I'll head down, we'll wait for you."

Y/n: "Alright, later."

Sonic ran down leaving you behind, you stood up and stretched a bit. You put on your belt and placed your hat on your head. You put on your shoes and just has the "great stare" we all have in the morning.

It's been a while since I've used my revolvers. But I guess that's a good thing...

I made my way downstairs and saw everybody down there by the Christmass tree.

I was going to go and greet everybody until a certain somebody stopped me from behind

Arthur: "Now hold on a minute, boy!"

I turned around and low and behold. Arthur Morgan!

Y/n: "Arthur?!"

Arthur: "Yes, sir. How you doing kid?"

Y/n: "Better than ever! Hey uh, merry Christmas Arthur!"

Arthur: "Merry Christmas, Y/n."

Y/n: "So, why you here?"

Arthur: "Just wanted to see how you're holding up. I see you've been pulling some moves-

Y/n: "Wait... how do you know?"

Arthur: "I can essentially spectate you whenever I want. You got a weird life kid, I'll give you that."

You smiled at him and he smiled back

Arthur: "Well. John and I got you a present."

Y/n: "Really? Can I see it?"

Arthur: "After you're done with your little group over there. We'll alert you, anyways good luck with the fox. 'Til we meet again."

I waved bye at him as he walked away and disappeared

Tails Pov:

I quickly put on my shoes and walked outside, I saw Y/n standing in the hallway. So of course I said hi to the wolf.

Tails: "H-hi! Y/n. I though you'd already be down there."

Y/n: "Oh. Hey Tails! I was busy- that's all. Wanna walk down there together?"

Tails: "Of course!"

Y/n Pov:

I thought about what Arthur said and decided to pull a move

I grabbed onto the two tailed fox's hand and walked him with me as if we were that one couple that always walks together in Amusement parks.

The fox of course did not expect this move at all, but he still went along with it

I don't know as to what the hell came over me, but I just kinda let go and started caressing his two tails since they were quite puffy. Okay, maybe I should let him get used to it first...

Tails Pov:

I just silently started blushing when he grabbed my hand, I wanted to walk with him but I didn't expect him react like tis. Although-

He let go of my hand which kind of worried me until he started petting my tails!? I of course twitched a little bit due to rarely being touched there until I got used to it

Tails: "I-

Y/n Pov:

Wow... I didn't expect his tails to be that fluffy, althought now that I think about it... This might be a little bit weird.

We kept walking a bit until he started purring... Honestly did not expect that.

Y/n: "Are you purring?"

Tails: "Ye- No! Me?"

I tried my best to hide my laughter, I knew the fox was adorable... But I didn't know that it was possible to get any cuter!

I let go due to the amount of silence, or else it would've been waay too awkward.

We kept walking and we stood right outside the living room, the others didn't notice us since they were busy with their own business.

Y/n: "So. Tails."

Tails: -flushed- "Yeah?"

Y/n: "Merry Christmas!"

As if those were the magic words the fox seemed to have calmed down just a little bit

Tails: "Right, Merry Christmas to you too Y/n!"

You smiled at him and made a gesture with your hands for him to go with the others

He shook is head, while smiling, and went to hang out with the others.

You stood there, thinking for a bit... You looked back and saw Sonic looking at you with a smile, he nodded his head for you to go over there.

And so you went.

Y/n: -childish- "Wait for me!"

Sonic: "Y/n! You're finally over here. Don't act like I didn't catch you talking with Tails."

Y/n: "Shhh! Keep it down..."

Sonic: -giggling- "Hah, alright alright."

You turned to Tom and smiled at him, to which he responded with

Tom: "Morning, Y/n! How you doing, kid?"

Y/n: "I'm doing pretty good for myself. And merry Christmas!"

Tom: "Merry Christmas ta you too, bud. Go on, enjoy the holiday with the others."

Y/n: "Alright."

You greeted everybody said hello, said merry Christmas. Average stuff, until you saw Ozzy, the family dog. She was just staring at you, you stared back.

She growled a bit, but hell no I wasn't gonna growl back. What am I? A weirdo? Hell no. Althought since I'm a wolf, technically I can. But it's a little weird when I do it.

You quickly thought of something, since you now have Eagle-Eye.... You can take a peak at the presents... Would I? Should I? Hmmm .... I don't wanna ruin the moment.

Y/n: "Hey... Lane."

Lane: "Yeah?"

Y/n: "Weird day, huh?"

Lane: "Yeah, it's a weird gesture. But it's about good gestures... So I guess it's not that weird."

Y/n: "Yeah."

You two stood there, staring at the Christmas tree. At the current moment your emotions with Lane are a little bit mixed... Sure he's somewhat making a comeback but not by much.

Y/n: "So... Merry Christmas, Lane."

Lane: "What does that mean?"

Y/n: "I'm wishing you a happy holiday, you're supposed to say it back."

Lane: "Fine.... Merry Christmas, Y/n."

He lent his hand out in a fist

Lane: "Fist bump me before I take it back." You were able to tell that the last part of his sentence was a bit sarcastic

You smiled at him, he reluctantly smiled back. Except this time he seemed genuine.

You pat his back and excused yourself.

You walked away towards Knuckles

Y/n: "You enjoying life here, Knuckles?"

Knuckles: "For sure."

Y/n: "Why are you just standing there, alone?"

Knuckles: "Why are you so short?"

Okay. I'm gonna bet honest with y'all, I did not expect that.

Y/n: "... I'll just-

I know that he genuinely asked that question, but the fact that it's genuine hurts MORE...! Y'know what? I'll just not respond.

I stood next to Knuckles, like those dads at a parties that all surround their makeshift campfires or something... Y'know how they just kinda stand there accepting their life and vibing with each other... Yeah.

Y/n: "Merry Christmas, Knuckles."

Knuckles: "I hope you have a Christmas that is merry as well."

Y/n: "Thanks. Y'know, we should hang out more, don't you agree?"

Knuckles: "Why do you think that.?"

Y/n: "I don't know... We could be like those cops from R.I.P.D!"

Knuckles: "What."

Y/n: "Forget it..."

Cadet Pov:

Christmas... It's really festive! I think it's pretty awesome. Although the music can get annoying... But I don't really mind it.

Come to think of it... Christmas is pretty similar to that one holiday that Lane and I celebrated with our Knight-Hood back home...

Anyways, although we've been here for a few weeks, it's been fun!

But there are a few things that concern me... First of all, Y/n talks to some weird guy who dissappears like a shadow... And then he acts as if he has no idea as to what I'm talking about. And second of all, ever since I've seen Y/n I've sort of felt... Fluffy? I don't know, not in a romantic way, I mean literally...

And the thing is, I keep getting dreams of humans fighting, and they all seem to have Dead-Eye since they use ranged weapons.

Sonic: "You alright?"

Cadet: "Huh? What."

Sonic: "Ya kinda zoned out."

Cadet: "Oh... Sorry... I've just been thinking of stuff lately."

Sonic: "Like how great this holiday is?!"

Cadet: "Yeah... that!"

Sonic: "So you're enjoying the Earth traditions, eh?"

Cadet: "Love them."

Sonic: "That's good to hear. By the way, there should be a few presents for you under the tree."

Cadet: "For me?"

Sonic: "Of course!"

Cadet: "Uhh... Alright?"

Sonic: "I'm gonna go get something to eat... Later!"

Cadet: "Cya..."

Cut to Sonic

I, the great Sonic quickly went to get some food. I haven't eaten all day... thay mayyyy or may not be my fault... Of course it's my fault!

Oh yeah! I kinda got Y/n a present... I'm not sure if he'd like it though. Also the way I got it was.... unethical? I may or may have not stolen it from a museum, I wouldn't call it stealing! Since it should technically rightfully belong to him...

What is the present you may be asking? That's for him to find out.

I served myself some food and started eating it fast... Don't judge... I'm hungry!

Let's cut to a GOD of a man. THE TOP LIFE FORM, the peak of humanity. Wade!

Wade Pov:

I'm currently driving over to Tom's house... He invited me over because apparently I'm that great of a friend... Which I believe!

I passed a few trees and drove down onto his driveway... Well it's more or so just a dirt road to park.

Anyways, I bought a few gifts for the.... Whatever Y/n and the rest are... Kids? Sure.

Funny enough before I left my house, I won a game of call of duty! So I guess that's impressive...

I grabbed the bag full of presents and walked through the door instead of knocking, sort of like those cool uncles that definitely have not been arrested before!

Y/n was the first to notice me, he's a good kid. And he appreciates me!

Y/n: "YO! LOOK, it's Wade!"

He ran up to me like a little kid and just basically looked as if he's completed his life's purpose

Y/n: "Merry Christmas, Wade!"

Wade: "Merry Christmas, bud!"

Third Person Pov:

Tom walked up to Wade and gave that signature bro hug, y'all know it? Where you grab arms like an arm wrestle and then bump shoulders or something...? Nevermind.

Maddie hugged Wade and stuff, everybody greeted him.

Wade basically became the heart of the celebration, he made everything 10x better. He made things funner, god I wish I could as cool as Wade...

Wade: "So, Tom. The rookie is currently on patrol. He doesn't celebrate Christmas, so he's fine."

Tom: "Good to know, we'll give him a little welcome present when we go back to the station... But for now you're free to stay here until you want to leave."

Wade started handing out the presents he bought.

Of course he's the one who bought you all cool stuff! Hell, Sonic got a LIMITED edition comic... Of course he's happy!

Everybody else got really cool stuff, Wade even got you a badge to put on your hat, it looked cool, so of course you put it on your hat, this stuff was some high quality metal too.

Y/n: "Thanks, Wade!"

Wade: "Eh, no problem. Y'know, I got that one custom made for ya."

Y/n: "I'll make sure to always keep it on."

Timeskip

Wade had to go, because he has his own family members.

Everybody got excited and started opening up their own presents...

What did you get? You got some weird thing... what the hell is this?

Y/n: "Uhh... What the hell is it...."

Tom: "Uhh... I don't even- what is that?"

Maddie: "... Is that just a block of wood?"

Y/n: "Nice... I could use a .... Block of wood."

Tom: "I'm just kidding, Y/n! I got you a new belt!"

Y/n: "Dayum, Y'all got me them high quality ones!?"

Tom: -whispering- "Of course, don't tell anybody, but you're my favorite. Second is Sonic."

You smiled at him and looked at your belt, it was sleek, black, quite stylish. It was a simple design, but obviously made of high quality material. Your current belt was kinda getting worn, you kind of stole it from a random hill billy in the woods... But that don't matter!

You were happy with your present, of course.

Sonic walked up to you and...

Sonic: "Hey, Y/n! I got you a present."

Y/n: "You did?"

Damn... You forgot to get presents for the others...

Sonic: "Of course!"

Y/n: "What is it?"

Sonic: "See for yourself!"

You unwrapped it and... It was a speed loader and a knife holster...

Y/n: "Where did you get these?"

Sonic: -sweating- "Uhh... From a friend!"

Y/n: "Hook me up with your friend someday! He got the good stuff! Except I don't have a knife..."

Sonic: "Just buy one. And also, the place where I got it from said WW1 something something... I don't know- I forget. Haha."

You gave him a stupid look and he smiled and just walked away.

Y/n Pov:

Gawdam... I don't got nothin' to give! Wait... I can make up for it!

I walked up to Tails, rehearsed a few things in my mind, and tapped his shoulder.

He turned around

Tails: "Oh, Hi y/n!"

Y/n: "Uhh.. Hi!"

Tails: "Is there something you wanted to say?"

Y/n: "Yeah... Uh- How are you enjoying living here?"

Tails: "It's perfect! You're all everything I ever needed in my life... This might sound a bit cheesy but you and Sonic have really cheered up my life... Especially you!"

You had a light blush, more or so happiness...

Y/n: "Y'know, you're pretty cute for a guy..."

Tails looked heavily surprised, nobody just expects that! But hell yes I'm pulling a move!

You thought for a minute

Y/n: "Hey, Tails..."

He just nodded his head as in, "Yeah?"

Y/n: "I um- I really enjoy your company... and I L-

Sh...

I was confident for a minute. That confidence simply blew away, I went from the sly and goofy wolf, to a shaking idiot who can't say a word.

I don't know what happened there... But I cowered away and didn't admit anything.

Y/n: "I really like how perfect of a friend you are..."

God damn it.

Tails: "Oh- Thanks! You're a perfect person, don't try and go and act cool or something... Don't change."

You gave him a genuine and honest smile, nodded your head. And looked at his eyes for a minute.

You walked up to him and gave him an honest hug, his fluffy fur felt nice... You got lost in the trance and kissed the fox's cheek.

He looked surprised and flushed at the same time. He put his hand to where you laid a peck on him and stared at you, not in disgust. But in happiness.

You said nothing, and just walked away.

Actions are easier to do... rather than to say anything. Some people act as if words are easier to do, and as if actions are more meaningful. But in reality, words are what lead up to actions. I don't know what happened, but I technically never admitted anything.

Sonic was hiding behind a wall and pumped his fist in a happy bro moment.

Sonic: -whispering- "Yes!.."

(Only ogs remember when I used to out ---- to seperate parts of the story)

--------------------------------------------------------------

Third Person Pov:

You walked up to Knuckles out of awkwardness and to ease your mind.

Y/n: "Hey... Knuckles."

Knuckles: -monotone- "Hello."

Y/n: "Can I ask you a few questions?"

Knuckles: "Sure."

You thought about what to say...

Y/n: "What would you do if-"

Best if I get my mind off of that subject

Y/n: "If somebody said you were cool! Yeah. That!"

Knuckles: "I would respond with, cool."

Y/n: "Cool."

Tom: "Alright, Kids! Well... We're gonna watch a Christmas movie, so if you wanna watch then you're invited to do so."

Of course everybody went to the couch to watch. Including Tails, the feelings were still a bit awkward, so you excused yourself to wash your hands.

Did you actually wash your hands? Of course. But you still went to your room for a few minutes

Y/n Pov:

I stood in my room for a bit, I was thinking about stuff. Until my vision glitched? I saw fog and bullets. But then-

Arthur: "Evening, kid!"

I snapped back to reality

Y/n: "A-arthur!? What are you- Oh! Right!"

John: "Not just Arthur!"

Y/n: "Marston?"

John: "Yep."

Arthur: "I brought this idiot along because he wouldn't stop bothering me about it."

John: "What? No I didn't."

You just laughed at the two

Arthur: "Anyways... Look at what we got ya."

Y/n: "What is it?"

John: "See for yourself."

You opened up the sack and saw a clean, black knife. It had a gray handle made of wood. The knife had a white outline. It looked badass so of course you loved it!

Y/n: "And y'all got me this?"

Arthur and John: "Yep & Of course."

Y/n: "Wait, let me see if the knife fits in this holster I got-

You put the knife in, it fit but it's a bit tighter than usual. You don't mind because it just means that it can't easily fall out.

Currently the knife was see through and felt a bit light. ..

Arthur: "Right. I forgot about that."

John: "Hey, kid. Use Eagle-Eye."

You used Eagle-Eye and then turned it off, the knife was now heavier and a physical and visible object.

Y/n: "Wow... Thanks a lot, guys! And John, you should visit more often..."

John: "Yeah Yeah... I know."

Arthur just gave him the side eye and laughed

Y/n: "Well... I promised the others that I would be back fast... Thanks a lot for the presents, guys! I wish y'all good luck! Later."

They waved goodbye, walked backwards and just disappeared.

You went back down, everyone continued watching the movie. You were still awkward with Tails, but he smiled at you, you got butterflied in your stomach, but you still smiled back.

You enjoyed the day, and the past few months. Hopefully nothing changes.
