So this is one of my newest stories. It is requested by and dedicated to 'SwedenSpeedway' =D
It features Moon (SwedenSpeedway's OC), which I do not own.
Also there might be some small mentions of MoonXAmy but it will mainly just be friendship.
This story is connected to
"When the moonlight finds the flower"-(SwedenSpeedway),
"When the moon goes down"-(SwedenSpeedway) and also slightly

"If you can't live without me"-(Me)... (which WILL have a sequel =D)
Amy does not know Sonic and the rest of the group in this story.

Anyway I'll just let you read ^U^ It's kind of short but it's only the prologue lol


Prologue

"Happy Birthday, Roger!" A white dog by the name of Tala Woodstock calls out, disturbing my sleep, disturbing my dream.

I sit up slowly, rubbing the sleep from my eyes. With my left paw I reach over to my bedside table and search around for my black aviator sunglasses. I place them on my crystal blue eyes before looking into my mother's identical eyes.

I smile sheepishly, trying to hide my sadness from her.

I guess I should be happy on today of all days, it's my sixth birthday and I am one year older. But I'm not as excited as I should be...

So to distract my attention away from my sadness, I turn to look at my mother. The first thing I notice is her scent of happiness, the second thing I notice is that her hands are concealed behind her back...

Suddenly she brings her hands around to the front, a book in hand. She excitedly thrusts it forward into my hands.

I glance quickly at her, taking a mental note on her steadiness, before looking down at the new book. As I study the book's appearance, Tala walks over to the window and pulls back the curtains, letting the sunlight enter the room...

Sunshine...

I shake my head, trying to get that image out of my mind. To distract my attention from the brightness, I look back down at the delicate book.

A poetry book, one I was admiring just the other day. I hop out of bed and hug her, telling her my 'thanks'. It may not seem like an awful lot but she really does try her best, however...

Since she lost Dad, she's been struggling...
Since she lost Dad, she's turned to wine whether it's white or red...

Thankfully she appears sober; I just hope she can keep it up!

I don't know how much longer she can go without her good friends such as; Chardonnay, Shiraz, Gewurztraminer, Chateauneuf du Pape and Rose...

Rose.

The reason I'm not enjoying myself?

Amy Rose.
