Things were still a little heated back home, I would have spent more time with Marcy, but she wanted to go visit her friends in another universe for awhile, so that left me with nothing to do.

Spend time with Cream? Nah, she's in school. Pick on Shadow? Too much ego to handle right now. Meditate with Chaos? Could work, I'll put that under maybe.

Talk to Gale?

...no, not for awhile anyway, not until the wedding.

Lisa? I mean I could...but I think she's still resting. Eh, worth a shot.

After making up my mind I snapped my fingers, causing a portal to appear before I hopped through it.

An hour later

I couldn't find either of them, Gale must have been out with his brother, had no idea where Lisa would have went though. So, I decided to wait outside their home, relaxing on a collapsed pillar by Gales Master Emerald shrine. He never used his emerald, he didn't need it due to the powers he got from the tree of harmony or whatever the hell it was that made him so overpowered. Heh, look who's talking right?

I just lay there with one leg hanging off the side as I tossed a chaos emerald into the air in boredom. I had run a few zones, but they were all done quickly with how I was now. I needed a challenge to keep myself entertained, Scrap Brain Zone was a pretty damn hard zone though, so many saws and fire, everything is trying to kill you.

Finally, a portal opened up and Marx and Lisa jumped out. They both began walking towards the entrance to the apartment until they noticed me. "Oh, Metal. What're you doing here?" Lisa asked curiously.

I just shrugged and kept tossing the emerald. "I dunno, I got bored since everyone's busy back home, thought you guys would be doing something interesting, but you weren't here so I just stuck around. Got nothing else to do."

"Well, you could be out finding those portal shards." She suggested as she walked over to me with her hands on her hips.

I held up a sack filled with portal shards and placed it back into the magic satchel. "I've got all the ones in this multiverse, I have to wait until a time where I can freely get to the Ominverse."

"The what?"

"Not important." I sat up and saw Marx looking at me with a raised brow. "What? I travel alright?" He shook his head and disappeared through a portal. "Anyway, what were you doing sis?" I asked as I looked to Lisa again, who I could tell had a stern expression on her face. "What?"

"Metal, what did you and Gale talk about after I went to get some rest?"

Of course she'd ask that. "Why do you ask?"

"Because when I woke up he was in a bad mood and I know he talked to you after I left, now what was it?"

I could lie, it's not like she can read my mind anyway, but at the same time it's not really worth it, might as well. "All he did was ask me if I still wanted you. I didn't say anything to him, I just jumped through the portal." I explained nonchalantly.

Her features softened as she stared at me. "And do you still want me?"

I lay back down and resumed my tossing. "Not sure, the feelings and attractions are there, but I honestly can't be bothered to do anything about it, and it's not like I can just get over feelings like that in a day. They're there, I know they're there, but I'm not gonna pursue those. You're my sister, you're dating my best friend, I already have three girlfriends, that's the end of it."

Lisa seemed to be at a loss for words. She looked at me as if she was trying to see if I was lying, but at the same time was con used but still understood. "I don't really know what to say here..."

"Then don't say anything." I jumped up and landed next to her before I began to walk away. "Just let Gale cool down for awhile and talk to him about it or whatever."

"Why don't you talk to him about it?"

"Because I just don't give a damn." I looked back and could tell she wasn't amused, so I turned back and stopped. "What do you want me to say Lisa? I honestly couldn't care less about any of this anymore, it's pointless to even talk about and only causes unnecessary tension. So why don't we do everyone else a favour and drop this subject into a bonfire and sprinkle the ashes into a black hole at the edge of the universe?"

She rubbed her arm as she thought. "That was a...pretty specific metaphor..."

"I've done a lot of messed up stuff in my spare time." I sighed abd walked over to her, taking her hand in mine and looking into her non-existent eyes. "Look Lisa, there is still a lot for me to figure out, my relationship with you is one of those things. It's best if we just forget about all of this for now, sort it out once we've all got clearer heads and have other crazy shot in their lives figured out. I'm still your little brother and I'm always gonna be here, for you and for Gale, mainly you, but still." She chuckled a little, which was reassuring.

"You know, it's hard to believe that the wisecracking, sarcastic, cute girl loving little robot I met a few months ago has so much emotional junk going on in his head." She spoke in a far more friendlier tone.

"Come on, we both know that personality is just a mask for how I really am." I sighed and pulled away, opening a portal and walking towards it. "If you aren't doing anything I guess I'll just go sort this stuff with the girls, it's just ridiculous at this point. Say hi to the idiot for me."

"Wait!"

I stopped as I was halfway through the portal and turned around. "Yeah?"

She lifted up a bag that she had brought with her and gave me a small smile. "Think you could help me pick out a good dress?"

I just smile softly and closed the portal.

Hey, I've got fashion sense ok? Gotta use it once in awhile.
