Sonic x Popular Youtuber!Reader
Having just arrived in Hedgehog Village yesterday, you decide to walk around a bit. It's around 9 in the morning and everyone seems to be out and about. For such a small village you didn't expect to have almost half of them surrounding you wanting pictures. You're sure not all of them are actually fans, but heard the commotion and wanted to feel included. After an hour or two, you politely leave so you can film your video for the day. Finding the perfect setting to film a video should be relatively easy. Every now and then you stop to take some pictures to add to your video. Everywhere on the island is beyond beautiful and the sun hits all the great spots. You stop and scan your surroundings only to see a clearing that looks perfect up on a little hill. You could probably film almost the entire village from up there. You take a deep breath, readjust your bag, and start up the hill.
It's about mid-day at this point Upon reaching the top, you glance around and confirm your suspicion that you can see nearly everything from up here. You take off your bag and set it on the ground next to you as you sit down on the grass. You're not really tired from the walk or the climb, but it's nice to just sit and breathe in the fresh air to clear your head before recording. After a few minutes of relaxing you turn to your bag and start taking out your equipment. After finding a flat and stable spot to set up your camera, you give yourself a once over to make sure you look all good and start recording before stepping into frame.
"Hi everyone!," you say with a wave, "It's me (Y/Y/N) back at it again with another vlog type video. I know I haven't done one of these types of videos in a long time, but I'm visiting this beautiful island and I just had to share." You turn the camera around to get a shot of the whole village with the sun at its peak. You can see a line at Meh Burger that goes out quite far. It's not bad food, but definitely not good either...just meh. The mayor's office has a few people coming in and out. Everyone else just seems to be wandering around, sharing pleasantries and conversing. Some are still crowding around looking for you. A couple more hours have passed and you're about ready to finish up recording.
As you're looking around for any last minute shots, you spot a lady walrus and what looks like her baby stuck up in a tree. She's looking around frantically for someone to help. Suddenly you catch a blue blur on your camera saving the baby from the tree and giving them back to their mom. He looks like a blue hedgehog, but it's hard to tell from this distance. He's certainly caught your attention. You follow him and his group with your camera and see him stop at your group of fans. Two individuals from the group perk up when they see the pictures you took with the fans. Next thing you know, you see a blue blur run all over the island, past you, and then back to his group. He grabs the two excited ones by the hand and runs them up to where you are standing on the hill.
The wind rushes past you as he stops. Your grip must've loosened without you realizing because it falls out of your hands and almost hits the ground. You squeezed your eyes shut as if that would lessen the damage to your very expensive camera, but you hear no crash. Opening one eye you glance down and see that everything is safe in the hands of the blue hedgehog in front of you. You let out a sigh of relief and reset the camera up.
Glancing down at the hedgehog you start to thank him, "Thank you...uh.. what's your name?" "Sonic. Sonic T Hedgehog at your service," he says with a little bow. His friends look at him slightly bewildered before their expressions turn back to excitement. "I'm Amy Rose and I love watching your art and vlog videos!" says the pink hedgehog barely containing her look of awe. She then steps to the side a bit so the two tailed orange fox can introduce himself, "And I'm Tails. I like watching your gaming videos, they always give me a good laugh. Sometimes I even put them on as background noise when I'm working in my workshop." I shake their hands one by one, "It is very nice to meet you three, I'm (Y/N) or as you might know me (Y/Y/N). With your speed," gesturing to Sonic, "your big hammer," gesturing to Amy, "and what I assume are gadgets," gesturing to tails, "as well as what those two down there can do, you guys must be pretty popular here too." "Oh yeah! Sonic is just amazing and he's in the newspaper at least once a week for saving the townspeople!," Tails quickly answers, "of course we help as much as we can too, but it's not easy to match his level."
You sit and talk with them for a bit, Knuckles and Sticks eventually coming up and joining you guys. Sticks seems very unsure of your camera so she stays out of shot and hiding in the trees or bushes ready to pounce if the camera so much as beeps or buzzes. Amy taps your shoulder before asking, "were you still recording when we first showed up? Do you still have more to do? Oh no, I hope we didn't ruin your video." You wave her off, "I was recording when you three first showed up, but I was almost done with it anyway. Just gotta film the outro. I'm more worried about the motion sickness I might get when editing from when it got knocked over. Do you guys want to be in the outro?" Everybody but Sticks agrees and you all stand in shot while you do your outro, "Thank you everyone for watching, if you like it please like, comment, and subscribe to see more. I also want to thank these wonderful people I met today, " gesturing towards the four individuals standing next to you, "as well as all of the fans on Bygone Island that can to see me. I hope to see all of your photos on social media! I hope you all have a wonderful day, (Y/Y/N) out!" I stop the recording and start packing everything up. Sticks and Amy are talking, and the other three are monkeying around.
After a little while longer everyone except Sonic leaves. Amy and Sticks are having a sleepover, Tails had to go back to his workshop, and Knuckles went off to do some digging. You lay back on the grass and stare up at the sky. The sun is just starting to set and the sky looks even more wonderful than before with all of the oranges and pinks. Still not many clouds out, perfect for taking in the view. Glancing over at Sonic, who's shifting from one foot to the other, you pat the spot next to you. He comes over and sits next to you on the ground. He opens his mouth, closes it, does this a few more times, and lets out a disgruntled groan. It's like a lightbulb lit up above his head as he turns to you with a smirk, "I was trying to come up with a line you've never heard before, but it seems you have left me speechless. I know you got here not that long ago since this was our first meeting and all, but I could walk you back to your place. My moral code won't allow me to let someone as attractive as you walk alone when Egghead could be plotting. I don't want you in any danger." You hum in response, weighing the pros and cons. You don't know who this "Egghead" person is, but they don't sound very nice. You should probably stick with Sonic and his friends as much as possible to avoid getting injured or taken.
You place your hand over his gloved one and nod at him to get him to lay next to you. His breath hitches slightly at the contact but he still lays down next to you, shoulders touching and your hand still on top of his. You can tell he's nervous based on how his quills are bristled like when a cat puffs up or a dog's hackles stand up. He also keeps strumming his fingers on his stomach, chest, and the back of his head. It's clear he's trying to appear as though he's perfectly chill, nonchalant, and overall just his normal charming self. And it is failing miserably. You lean your head against his shoulder and let out a content sigh. "It's beautiful isn't it?" Sonic turns his head towards you, "Yes..very much so. Oh and the sunset is nice too," he says with a playful grin. You're too caught up with staring at the sky to fully process what he said so you just nod at him.
It's now closer to dark and you still have a video to edit and upload. You don't really want to get up from your position since Sonic is like the perfect snuggle buddy. He's smaller than you so you can hold him, he's warm and cozy, and all of that makes it a pain to get up. But you do so, begrudgingly. As you stand you offer your hand to Sonic to help him up. He grabs your hand and quickly gets up before leaning down and picking up your bag with his other hand. Throwing it around his shoulder, he gestures for you to lead the way.
As you walk, he ends up walking beside you. He's still standing so close to you just like how close he was laying on the grass next to you 30 minutes ago. So close that your hand keeps brushing against his glove. If you didn't know better, you'd think he was doing this on purpose. He was still just as nervous and on edge as he was before. Probably even more now with the added risk of stepping into one of Eggman's traps. Sonic keeps dashing all around and searching for any sign of Eggman when he isn't walking right next to you. Based on how he acted around his friends, everyone else, and how they all had described him, this really wasn't what you were expecting from the so called "chill, awesome, charming, witty, confident, etc" famous blue hedgehog. However you swore you could also see his tail wagging now. You could understand it on the hill, but now he was the one choosing to be this close to you. You've tried putting some space between you two multiple times, but he just scooches back into place a few moments after.
Eventually you both arrive at your front door. Sonic runs around the place to make sure you'll be safe for the night. After checking all the spots he deemed "too dangerous to not check" he stops in front of you with a thumbs up and his signature wink, "All good. You should be set for the night. I wouldn't want to leave a new friend feeling unsafe." "Thanks Sonic," I lean down and kiss his cheek in appreciation, his tail starts wagging again in response, "I should get to editing the video and get it posted before it gets any later. See you tomorrow?" Sonic nods his head, hands you your bag from his shoulder, and speeds off. You watch as the blue blur disappears before heading inside your cottage. You grab your leftover food from last night, heat it up, and gobble it down.
You walk over to the couch where you set your bag and laptop are. Pulling out the camera, you connect it to your laptop and transfer the video file to start editing. It took way longer than you'd hoped it would to edit the video down into a consumable amount and not 3-4 hours long. You put the file into the uploader on YouTube and just let it take however much time it needs. Looking at the time it's now about 9 pm and you are ready for bed. You change into some pajamas, plug your equipment in, and flop onto your bed. Your body is tired, but your head is filled with all the stuff tomorrow could bring. You soon fall asleep while thinking of what you want to do with Sonic.
