The breaking point
0 reviewsAN: The argument Sonic and Tails have is loosely based on an argument I had with my mom once. The burritos, well, Sonic did mention something about eating burritos more dangerous than the lightning...

"Are you almost done?" Sonic asked.
Tails sighed. "Please tell me you don't have to go to the bathroom again."
Sonic rubbed the back of his head. "I… wish I could tell you that."
Tails hopped off the bench and roughly pushed the wheelchair to the bathroom.
"Hey, I wouldn't treat you like that if you were the one who's hurt." Sonic said, looking over his shoulder at Tails.
"I wouldn't drink gallons of water out of boredom." Tails replied.
Sonic wheeled himself the rest of the way to the bathroom.
Tails, leaning against the wall, waited by the door.
"Well, would you want me to stick you in a retirement home when you're old?" Sonic asked.
Tails looked at the door incredulously. "You're seven years older than me."
"So?" Sonic asked. "I'm in perfect physical shape."
"I'm in perfect mental shape." Tails replied.
"Are you saying I'm stupid?" Sonic questioned.
"No way, I just- how much water did you drink?" Tails asked.
"Uh, I hate to tell you, but Knuckles and I got burritos from the convenience store again instead of the chili dogs." Sonic said, pulling toilet paper off of the roll.
"You promised you'd never eat those again." Tails shrieked.
"I'm sorry." Sonic said. "I forgot."
Tails groaned. "Why me?"
Sonic finally flushed the toilet and washed his hands. "Where's the bathroom spray?"
Tails leaned away from the door. "There isn't any. I don't have matches either."
Sonic opened the door and wheeled himself out.
Tails slammed the door shut. "Sonic, so help me if you can't find something to do or stop getting those awful burritos, I'll show everyone the video where you had your wisdom teeth pulled."
Sonic smirked. "Go ahead."
Tails checked his phone. "You deleted it? How do you know my password?"
"It's Tornado." Sonic replied. "You have to be more creative, bro."
"It's on my tablet." Tails said, turning to walk away.
"The password is my name and age at the moment." Sonic replied. "Seriously, you can do better than that."
Tails sighed. "My thinking was that anyone would figure I'd be too smart to put something so obvious."
"I was just taking random shots at it." Sonic said, shrugging.
"I'm sorry." Tails replied. "I guess we're both stressed. Can you please find something to do while I go to the store to get more oil for the Tornado?"
"I'll figure something out." Sonic replied.

Tails flew in. "I got us a new-"
"Can you help me up?" Sonic asked.
Sonic was lying in the fallen wheelchair.
Tails dropped his shopping bags and rushed over to help Sonic up. "Were you doing wheelies again?"
"Yeah, and I lost my grip on the wheels." Sonic replied. "Again."
Tails helped Sonic up and onto the couch. "Can't you try to read at least one book?"
"I did." Sonic replied. "I read every book in this house five times, except for your science books."
"Oh, yeah?" Tails asked. He walked over to the bookcase and pulled out a book. He held it up. "What is this one about?"
"An observational humor book." Sonic said. "One chapter was about the guy's journey into musical theater."
"Right." Tails replied. He pulled another book out of the bookcase and held it up. "This one?"
"A guy thought he was buried alive only to find out he was in the hold of a ship and developed a new lease on life." Sonic said.
Tails picked up another book and held it up. "I bet you didn't make it past chapter two in this one."
"I didn't; I skipped to the part where the dinosaurs finally got loose." Sonic replied. "You could've told me my favorite character died in the book."
"I forgot about that." Tails said, tossing the book aside. "Okay, so you have been reading these. Do you want more books?"
"No, I already told you that I want to run and spin dash some robots." Sonic said exasperatedly. "I've played every video game we own. I watched every movie and TV show we own. I even played every song on every playlist on my phone. If I have to do it all again, I will go insane."
"Why don't you take a nap, while I think of something for you to do?" Tails asked.
Sonic huffed. "Fine." He rolled himself to the couch, slid onto it, and laid down.
Tails sighed. "Please tell me you don't have to go to the bathroom again."
Sonic rubbed the back of his head. "I… wish I could tell you that."
