A Special Sonamy Christmas
"There!" squealed Amy as she added an ornament to her Christmas tree. "Sonic, could you add the ornaments to the other side?"
The blue hedgehog sat up from on the box and stretched a bit. "Yeah, sure Ames." he replied, using the nickname for her. He immediately grabbed some colorful ornaments and placed them on the tree; while Sonic somewhat enjoyed the holidays, he didn't seem to have the best of times at the moment.
"By the way, are you going to Rouge's Christmas party tomorrow?" Amy asked, hoping to start a conversation.
The blue hedgehog shrugged. "I don't know, I'm probably gonna be busy, ya know."
"Really? Even Shadow's going to be there." She replied while organizing the lights. Sonic only gave a small chuckle as he thought about Shadow being in any kind of party.
Believe it or not, this was actually a date with Amy. Due to missing a previous date, the blue hedgehog promised to make it up to his number one fan by helping her decorate the tree on Christmas Eve.
Sonic would never say it, but he really wish he wasn't here right now, he'd rather be out fighting robots or flying with Tails on the plane. On the bright side, the date truly wasn't that bad; he was just helping a friend in need...that's all it was pretty much, right?
Amy inspected the placement of the ornaments and gasped. "Sonic, there's too many ornaments on that side!"
"Well you didn't say how many you wanted." Sonic replied. "You know, I may be the fastest thing alive, but I'm no mind reader."
Amy gave a playful eye roll before spreading the ornaments out, with Sonic's help. To Amy, Christmas was her favorite time of the year and always hoped for a magical one each year. The pink hedgehog wore a green, festive sweater over her red dress. She also wore black leggings underneath along with her normal boots and a green headband instead of her usual red one. Even Sonic can admit that she looked adorable, like a fashionable doll with pink quills and great big eyes.
The only thing the blue hedgehog wore was his sneakers and a red and green striped scarf that was given to him by Amy last Christmas. Seeing him in that gift made Amy squeal in delight secretly; the fact that he thought about her made her heart race.
Sonic himself had always thought the pink hedgehog was cute, ever since Little Planet. However he knew she was also….obsessive per say; the pink hedgehog claimed to be His girlfriend and soon to be wife.
However she seemed a bit more...relaxed, maybe it was because it's Christmas, but seeing her like this sparked some attraction towards her. She was all...calm and normal, but also fun to be around.
"There!" Amy cheered proudly as the tree was up to her standards. Glistening lights, decorative ornaments...all that was missing was a star.
"Think we did a damn good job, if I do say so myself." Sonic commented. "Good enough for some….hot chocolate?"
Amy giggled before admiring her beautiful tree, however a certain hedgehog took her mind off that…
"I can't believe I'm alone with Sonic….at my own house…" She thought, her heart was racing with anticipation and her eyes glistened with her. Her cheeks turned a bright shade of red, this wasn't any guy...this was Sonic himself…
The pink hedgehog's thoughts suddenly snapped when she figured out something about the tree. "Oh wait!"
"What's up?"
"I forgot the star!" She reminded. "Did you see it when you came in?"
"Uhh..I thought I saw it underneath the table." Sonic recalled. Amy nodded and walked over there before Sonic could say another pink hedgehog slowly and carefully went under the table and found a large, golden star for the tree's top. Although what really caught her attention was the wrapped box next to it. A box wrapped in blue paper with a yellow bow.
"What's this?" Amy asked, taking both the star and present.
Sonic looked over and immediately blushed seeing that present. He nonchalantly started to whistle while twiddling his thumbs nervously. Amy cocked her head to the side, curiously looking at the blue hero.
"Sonic, are you okay?" Amy asked.
"Uh...well yeah um, here lemme hold the box for you while you put the star up." he suggested.
"But it says to Amy Rose." said the pink hedgehog. "Sonic….do you know how this got here?"
Sonic blushed deeper. "Well…it's...from me…" he replied. "I meant for you to open it tomorrow, but I see you found it..."
Amy blushed, giving a small smile. "Aw Sonic..if it's from you, I'm dying to see what's inside." she replied. "Here...why don't you open the gift I got you? That way we can both open one gift tonight."
"You got me a gift?" Sonic asked, rubbing the back of his head. "Aw Amy...you shouldn't have."
"Why wouldn't I?" she asked, grabbing a green box with a red bow. "Here, open yours!"
Sonic only nodded, wondering what kind of gift Amy would get him. He was thinking something cute maybe, although then again it was Amy...she probably did her research on what the hero liked.
He carefully opened it, revealing something that made his eyes widen. "Amy…" he whispered. Inside the box was a red and white guitar which went well for Sonic's interest in rock music. "I've always wanted….how did you know…?"
Amy bashfully looked away. "Well...I remember before I chased you that one time...you were looking at that guitar." she replied. "I really hope you like it, Sonic."
"It must've costed her a fortune…" Sonic thought.
Sonic was never the affectionate type, but now he wanted take the pink hedgehog and pull her into a squeezing hug. Now the hedgehog could play music anytime he wanted to. He gave her a kind, shy smile. "Thank you, Amy...damn…"
"Hm? What's wrong? Don't you like the gift?" asked Amy in concern.
Sonic nodded. "No no, it's great. I really lik-no, i love it." he replied. "It's just….my gift to you is a piece of crap compared to yours…"
Amy giggled. "Oh Sonic, it doesn't matter." she reassured. "As long as it's from you, then that's good enough for me…"
The blue hedgehog nodded, feeling slightly better about all this. What really mattered to him was her expression after seeing his gift to her. He watched her carefully unwrapping the box, anticipating her reaction to it. Sure it wasn't anything like the gift he received, but he hoped he would get a happy response from her.
Amy opened the box, which revealed a shiny, wooden picture frame; inside the picture had both Sonic getting hugged on by Amy while sporting a nervous smile as he cautiously had one arm around her back.
Amy gasped softly, remembering Sonic's previous birthday….the day that picture was taken. Her eyes started to tear up while she wiped her eyes.
"Amy? Are you okay?" Sonic asked, worried as he saw her crying. He did his best to comfort as he got close to her, but little did he know that she was crying in joy…
Amy's eyes glistened with joy. "Oh Sonic...it's beautiful…" She whispered. "Where did you find this…?"
Sonic blushed as he smiled. "Oh well...I found it in Tails's camera and with his help...I made the frame." He replied nervously. "Thought you might like it for your tree. It has a hook so you could hang it on there."
Amy looked at the back and saw the small hook. "Oh wow...it's a ornament!" She cheered. "This would go great on my tree!"
The pink hedgehog immediately placed it at a spot where guests could easily spot it it when they see the tree. It was high up, but not higher than where the star would go up to.
"Perfect…" She whispered. "Just like that picture…"
"Well I kinda have another gift for you…" Sonic started. "Although...I'm not exactly sure you'll like it."
"Sonic, like I said… If it's from you, of course I'd like it!" Amy reminded.
"Then...here it goes…"
"Hm?"
Suddenly the blue hedgehog did the very thing he'd never thought he'd do; the heroic hedgehog grabbed the female hedgehog before closing his eyes and passionately kissing her. Amy's eyes widened with shock, Sonic was kissing her...actually kissing her...it was like her Christmas wish came true..
Of course, the pink hedgehog slowly returned the kiss, much to Sonic's...delight? Her arms snakes around his neck as his wrapped around her tiny waist. The hedgehogs remained there before slowly pulling away, looking into each other's eyes as they blushed a scarlet red.
"Sonic...you kissed me…" Amy whispered, touching her lips. "My first kiss...on Christmas Eve.."
Sonic shyly had his arms around his back. "W-well..you're under the mistletoe.."
Amy blushed as she looked to see that Sonic was right; she actually planned for Sonic to be under yet instead it was her. "Oh! I guess I fell for my own trap!"
Both Sonic and Amy chuckled in unison, before looking into each other's eyes. Sonic scratched his quills nervously, while trying to make eye contact with the hedgehog girl.
"So Ames...I may have one more gift for you." Sonic presented.
"And I'm sure I'll love this one, but it's gonna be hard beating that kiss." Amy replied playfully.
"Well...I was wondering if you wanted to come with me to Rouge's party?" Sonic asked nervously.
Amy blushed deeply. "You want me...to come with you? Like...as a date?" She asked. Sonic nodded in reply, hoping the best of outcomes.
Amy only laughed, in which Sonic hoped this wasn't rejection. "Sonic, I've been waiting for you to ask me on a date since forever!" She pointed out. "Of course I'll go with you..but didn't you say you'd be busy?"
"Oh, I can squeeze it into my schedule." The blue hedgehog reassured with a wink.
Amy smirked playfully. "Oh I believe you, Sonic...but…"
"But what?"
"I...I just wanna kiss you again!" She exclaimed.
Sonic smiled, slowly leaning in close to the pink hedgehog as he waited to catch her cherry flavored lips…
"Merry Christmas, Amy.."
"Merry Christmas to you too, Sonic…" She whispered before slightly puckering her lips, making them look even more kissable to Sonic. The blue hedgehog pressed his lips against hers, beginning to once again enjoy the sweet sensation of a kiss.
"Sonic, there you are!"
Suddenly Tails bursted into the room, interrupting the kiss. Both Amy and Sonic separated in embarrassment, much to the blue hedgehog's disappointment. "I've been trying to get a hold of you all day! Eggman's been invading the city!" The fox warned.
A sweat drop slid on Sonic's forehead. "O-oh...uh...well…!"
"I thought you had it all taken care of." Amy smirked.
Sonic chuckled, clearly embarrassed. "W-Well you know, a hero never rests!" He replied before looking at his best friend. "Let's go, Tails!" He called before running out of Amy's house in a split second.
"Merry Christmas, Amy!" Said Tails, before flying after the blue hedgehog. "Sonic, wait for me!"
The pink hedgehog pouted. "Why must he always be on the run?!" She asked herself.
However she then looked at the tree...only to see that the golden star was put on top. Her pout disappeared as she eyes glistened with surprise. She figured Sonic must've put on the star on his way out.
"He really does care!" Amy squealed. "This is already the best Christmas ever…"
The pink heroine then ran to her room and immediately dialed a number on her phone.
"Hello? Cream? You'll never guess what happened to me today…"
