Blue Dhampir

Sushi

(Sonic's POV)

Amy and I sat at the tables outside to have green tea; she said green tea helps with the pain, so I trusted her. Also, we stayed in the shadows away from being in the sunlight too long so I don't get sunburn.

"Oh, Sonic. I get the feeling you looked relaxed and a little sleepy from my massage therapy." Amy giggled at how I look a little relaxed.

"Yeah, and my talking feels like it has no words to say." I chuckled and sipped my tea from the mug.

"Well, many I've massaged almost falls asleep like that, even Tails, Whisper and Tangle." Amy said.

"I see. I nearly dozed off but never in my entire life was I ever massaged by a lovely young woman." I said as the lovely Japanese ladies brought....sushi or something to us at the table.

"Oh, thank you. I should do this more often." Amy said.

"You mean massaging or coming here?" I asked.

"The former, but coming here is great too." Amy said.

I ate some sushi and it tasted raw but it also did taste good at the same time. "Mmmmm not bad, Ames."

"I like it when it's salmon." Amy said.

"Sometimes I wonder why raw fish is better for sushi traditions." I said as I ate more.

"That I wonder too." Amy said, having her own sushi.

"You know, sometimes I wonder why mortals like the daylight. All my life I'm active at night time because my guardians raise me during the night. It's like I have two worlds in me because my father is mortal and my mother is a vampire. It's hard to choose between those worlds." I said, enjoying the daylight sky while staying in the shadows.

"Daylight keeps us active but darkness makes mortals sleepier, even at cloudy weathers." Amy said.

"But what about those that work late at night. Does it bother them?" I asked.

"Yes, they come home hungry and sleepy." Amy nodded.

"Tails himself is said to work to 2 AM with his workshop." I said.

"He's so young to work late at night." Amy said, finishing her sushi.

"Yeah, sometimes I find him asleep on his desk." I chuckled.

Then those butterflies in the beautiful flower garden, they just look beautiful at how colorful they fly like swarm. One landed on my nose and I simply smiled, the purple color reminded me of my mother.

"So pretty." I said.

"Yes they are Sonic." Amy said.

I simply waved the butterfly off my nose so it can fly freely. "When I was a kid, I just find night time beautiful with fireflies, the wolves, the animals, everything. But daylight, just the sun giving light around for animals to do whatever they do in nature." I said, watching the butterflies fly in low grounds.

"The sea life is also a beautiful sight." Amy said.

"I never been in the sea life but I sure know about fresh water life like the lake I go to in the woods." I said, sipping my tea from my mug.

"I'm guessing the lake and the moon is what makes you motivated or something." Amy guessed.

"Yes. The way the moon light hits the lake makes it magical." I said.

"And the animals? Tails once told me that you respect the wildlife." Amy said.

"Yes I do. But when an animal is dying, I put it out of its misery." I replied.

"But they don't transform after being drained as I recall." Amy said.

"No, a hybrid like me are unable to transform them into vampires. I tried and tried for centuries but nothing. Only vampires can, dhampirs can't." I said.

"Well it does not matter. I like the way you are." Amy leans in to kiss me.

"And I love the way you are as a healthy and innocent woman you are, without two puncture marks on your neck." I teased by pretending to have my two fingers like fangs pointing at her neck.

"Hehehe..... Sonikku!" Amy giggled.

"I just love your giggles, Ames." I said.

"Sonic you're making me blush!" Amy blushed.

"That's what I like about you. You and Iris are like the light in my life. You are like a gorgeous flower and Iris is like a cute little angel." I said and I held her hand.

"My dark guardian." Amy sighs sweetly and we both shared a kiss together.

Later, we went home to pick up Iris from her babysitters Tangle and Whisper. We both saw her crawling up to us when she saw us at the door.

"Mama! Dada!" Iris squealed in excitement.

I picked her up and cradled her. "Yes we're here now, Iris."

She also reached for her mother. "Missed mommy?" Amy teased and held Iris in her arms to show some mother love to her.

"I feel jealous." I pretended to feel jealous to tease Amy.

"You're a good father Sonic, don't be jealous." Amy said.

"Iris, dada is grumpy." Tangle laughed.

Iris looked at me like she wanted me to join with her and her mama like a family huddle. I hugged Amy while petting my step-daughter's quills making her purr.

"It's no wonder Iris likes her new daddy." Whisper said.

"Yeah, she loves it when he shows affection for her mom." Tangle said.

"Thank you for looking after Iris, guys." Amy held little Iris in her arms.

"You're welcome." Tangle said.

"Anytime." Whisper said as Amy, Iris and I left.

-

We arrived at Amy's apartment room number and we went inside as Amy locked the door. I do feel a little sleepy because I need to sleep during the day time and we just got Iris. Amy saw I looked a little sleepy because she knows I sleep at daytime.

"Get some rest Sonic." She brought me to her bedroom. I hung up my hoodie at the chair and got into bed.

"Dada is going night night, little angel." I said to Iris that is in Amy's arms as I fell asleep.

"Dada." Iris spoke out.

"Shhhh..... Easy Iris." Amy cradled our baby.
