Sonic was already sitting at the couch when I got there and so I sat next to him.
The show seemed to be about a little boy who lived with aliens and thought that that was normal.
I watched the first episode and to my surprise Sonic stayed true to his words of not falling asleep.
It annoyed me though.
I had gotten used to Sonic curling up in my lap.
Which was when I suddenly wondered what it would be like to curl up in his.
I looked over at Sonic mischievously and I felt him give me the side-eye.
I beeped innocently.
"What are you planning?" Sonic grunted.
I looked away pointedly to not give him any intel.
He huffed and crossed his arms.
I chose that moment to flop into his lap as dramatically as I could.
Sonic yelped and I refused to move.
"Metal!" Sonic whined.
I ignored him and stretched out my arms and legs getting comfortable.
Sonic might prefer being curled up but I preferred a more log like position.
Sonic huffed loudly.
I clicked softly and then allowed my mind to go blank.
I never really shut off unless I was down for maintenance so it was the best I could do. I mean I could turn myself off manually but.. I didn't like doing so.
Sonic released one last whiney noise before going quiet.
I simply laid there silently enjoying my new spot.
I then heard Sonic huff after a couple minutes.
I felt his hand brush the back of my head and I felt my optics brighten slightly of there own accord.
I had never had my ears scratched before.
I wondered briefly if it would feel good or weird.
I mean. I knew there was copper in my ears.
Sonics hand stroked me again this time the top of my head and quills.
I buzzed softly despite trying to stay quiet as to not scare Sonic off.
Sonic chuckled softly before petting me again.
I buzzed again and then he started petting me in a rhythm.
I allowed it for two minutes before getting bored of the normal petting and I tilted my head which caused Sonic to touch the tip of my ear.
I buzzed loudly and gently pushed my head into Sonic's hand.
Sonic exhaled a bit.
I let out a trusting beep and I waited.
I had scratched Sonic's ears. He could scratch mine.
I felt his fingers tentatively scratch against the outer part of my ear and that warmth came back.
I buzzed loudly and happily.
Sonic purred slightly and then his fingers traced up my ear and down and one accidentally rubbed against the copper part and where I expected it to feel awkward and weird like when Tails put the button on me it instead felt like fire. Not a hurt burn but a different kind of burning and suddenly it was like everything clicked into place and for the first time in my life the world was perfect.
I then made a sound that I had never heard before.
It was a loud half buzz half honk.
Sonic paused immediately and I went back into a sitting position on my side out of surprise at myself.
"Did I hurt you?" Sonic asked me softly in concern.
I shook my head.
Sonic hadn't hurt me at all.
Sonic had shown me the meaning of sunshine.
Maybe.. maybe I did love Sonic.
I beeped at the realization my optics glowing brightly for a moment.
Sonic stared at me for a moment and then he looked back towards the show.
I honked softly at him and then I simply nuzzled my head into the spot between his neck and shoulder and Iet my mind go blank again.
Sonic didn't say a word or try to pet me again.
We simply sat like that for awhile and then Sonic yawned.
I wrapped my arms around him when he tried to get up.
I didn't want him to leave me.
Sonic sighed heavily.
"Metal. I gotta get some sleep." Sonic told me softly.
I beeped and then I pulled him into my lap.
Sonic snorted and then sighed.
"Fine. You win." Sonic sighed.
I let him go and he curled up in my lap with a huff.
I buzzed softly and I petted Sonic.
Sonic breathed softly and then I felt his body relax after a couple minutes.
I was silent for the rest of the night.
Morning then came and I was still petting Sonic.
Sonic woke up around early morning.
I buzzed gently and Sonic looked up at me.
I just stared down at him.
Sonic smiled at me and then got off of me.
"I'm guessing your heading off now?" Sonic asked me curiously.
I shook my head.
I then picked up my notebook and mechanical pencil.
'No. I want to stay with you a bit. If that's okay.' I wrote down and showed him.
Sonic nodded.
"Yeah. That's fine." Sonic told me.
I nodded and then I sat back down.
Sonic stared at me for a moment and then put the show back on and walked off leaving me with my thoughts.
