Keep in mind that no one wants to make themselves look bad. Opinions are biased. Question everyone. No one wants to tell the whole truth. It's up to you to distinguish it from the bullshit. Now on with the super-exciting conclusion.

Thank you.

She met me at a diner. Had some urgent business to discuss. She said she didn't have much time to talk.
Why not? I wasn't doing anything. Tails damn sure wasn't around.
I didn't know who she was. I asked her name, and she told me it was Amy.
I don't remember meeting an Amy.

Maybe I have. Maybe I haven't. Didn't want to offend her, so I didn't say anything. Went along.
I'll recognize her face when I see her. Or maybe I won't.
Maybe it's jus some nutcase? Who knows?
But we're meeting in a diner. There can't be danger involved.
Right? Right.
Right, right.

So I show up at this diner, and sit at an empty table by a window.
Looking out the window, staring into the crowd of people that flood the streets? How will I recognize this person? She didn't even tell me what she looked like.
All I know is her name.

And suddenly she's sitting right across from me. I know her, because she calls me by name.

"Cream?"

"Amy?"

"Yeah. That's me."

"What's this about?"

She looked like she was afraid of what she was about to say. Never a good sign.
Her eyes welled up. Looked like she was tryin' so hard to keep from crying.
I didn't know what to make of it.

"I..."
she pauses. Looks down.

"Where did you get my number?"

"From his cell phone."

I can feel my eyes widening. My fist clenching.

"Whose?"

"Tails. I didn't know he was seeing you and..."

"And?"

"I slept with him. I started seeing for a little while. I cheated on Sonic with your boyfriend. Sonic was just treating me so bad, and... I don't know."

She started crying.

All I feel is anger.
Anger and disgust.

How could he do this to me?

"I'm not exactly innocent, myself, or anything, but I mean... Tails used Sonic cheating on me as an excuse to cheat on him, too." her voice breaks and she sniffles "I never even considered the possibility of him having a girlfriend. It didn't even cross my mind. Maybe I was just stupid.."

I don't say anything.
I don't have anything to say.

"I should have just dumped Sonic and moved on a long time ago. Now I've cause this whole mess, and I... I'm so sorry."

She sits there for a while, then silently excuses herself without saying anything else. I guess she was done.

I'm not exactly sure what to do at this point. What can you do? Things need thinking through. Deep thought and planning is required in a situation like this.

I get up from the table, and leave.

-

There were problems with Tails, sure. But he was a good guy aside from that.
Easily led by the temptation of others.
A bit foolish, my dear Tails.
We can make this work.
No.
No, it can't.
He's just going to get more useless after this.

I have to put a stop to this. As much as it's going to hurt.
As hard as it's going to be on me.

It has to be done.

"It's over, Tails."

"Baby, please"

"Get the fuck out of my apartment."

"Just hear me out"

"No."

"Just"

"No!"

"Cream"

"Get the fuck out, Tails!"

"Really? Are you seriously ready to throw what we have away?"

"The only thing getting thrown out is you. Go. Shoo."

"What about all the good times we had together, baby?"

"The good times? Are you referring to the fond memories I have of wasting my time, effort, and love on a worthless piece of shit? The ones of some worthless deadbeat suckling from my proverbial teat, then going off and leaving me abandoned? You think you can just have sex with some whore, and come crawling back with your tails between your legs? You really think you can pull that off?"

"Don't be like this."

"You're not on the lease, asshole. Get the fuck out of my apartment before I call the cops. Sleep in your fucking car for all I care."

-

After that, he left. I never talked to him again, but I heard he got his ass kicked at some bar, and disappeared. Whatever. I don't care. I'm not bitter. I don't miss him. I don't care. Really. I don't.
I don't.

I felt that Amy's boyfriend, the famous Sonic the hedgehog had a right to know about Amy's infidelity with Tails. I thought he should see who she deliberately ruined their relationship for, so I brought a picture. I felt really bad for the poor guy, you know? He seemed to take it hard. He was drinking a lot when I was talking to him.
Apparently a family member or something visited him early that following morning, and found him face first in a pool of his own bloody regurgitation. He was taken to the hospital immediately, and I recently heard he was transferred to a mental hospital, something about being in a constant state of incoherency.
I wonder what happened to him...

Also, I heard that Amy died or something.
Something about shoddy breaks. I really don't know anything about it.
I wouldn't.
Why would I?

I wouldn't. That's that.

Let's move on.

The view was nice, let me tell you. Things didn't look this ugly from far away, so to speak. I could have had plenty of other guys. Instead, I chose to pursue this one. I can't exactly explain it.
And I finally got him.

I get to this land I've been staring at from afar, and it's a hellhole.
But you keep telling yourself it's fine. You don't want to admit that it was foolish to waste all the time and effort.

What you refuse to realize, is that you were stupid. You should have just admired the view, but now that you've seen past the illusion, it's ruined forever.

Moral; fantasizing is better than achievement. Fact.

And that's the end of my story.

There. Am I still getting more and more predictable?
(Don't be afraid to rip me a new asshole. I deserve one)
