a regretful, reject

It was Valentine's Day and Amy was waiting for shadow to give her a rose. She had all ready given him one, a red one as a matter of fact. Amy was heavily in love with shadow when she had first set eyes on him. The friendship between them had grown but then had shriveled up once they reached high school. Amy didn't know what happened but he just stopped talking to her, calling or texting and even avoided her when they were in classes together.

Amy had hoped that maybe by sending the rose to him would get shadow back as her friend while also letting him know about her feelings. As Amy sat there impatiently, tapping her foot against the floor the bell rang meaning the end of the lesson and the beginning of registration.

As she watched everyone in her class pour in she saw shadow looking at a rose with a little bit of annoyance and maybe even anger. She instantly thought that the little plan in her head had failed. Then what surprised her was the fact he was walking up to her. Ok Amy get a grip of yourself. Just pretend you are not looking at him. She shouted in her head. When shadow had gotten there Amy was all calm and reading her book. "Amy we need to talk. I know that you and I were friends in the past and I know how bad you want us to be that again but it isn't going to work"

Amy felt as if the wind had been knocked out of her lungs. As she took time to process this, shadow continued "and I know how you feel about me. The only thing that I can say is… I don't love you back and I think I never ever will." Amy could feel tears threatening to flow out.

Quickly she got out of her seat and ran out of the room, to the ladies restroom. There she let out all her pain and anger go in the shape of salty tears. As she looked at her tear-stained reflection she decided that maybe it was a time to move. You see her parents kept on saying that they were moving to another town but she didn't want to that was until now.

Shadow never saw her after that day but sometimes he would imagine what it would have been like if both him and Amy had become boyfriend and girlfriend and also he regretted on ever letting her go.

A few years later…

Amy worked at a wedding designer studio, while shadow worked at gun. Amy had matured into a beautiful hedgehog that was sweet, kind and caring, a dream for any man. While shadow was the complete opposite (expect for the fact he was devilishly handsome)

It was a normal day for Amy. The customers had kept her busy with orders and requests for gowns, while day dreaming about her wedding day.

Shadow was walking down the sun lit street, seeming he had nothing better to do. He soon came to be outside of what an appeared to be a wedding dress shop. Out of pure curiosity he went inside, the place was beautifully built and row upon row wonderfully weaved dresses made from the finest silk hung on the wall. Shadow searched for the owner of such a marvelous shop. "Yes can I help you sir?" said a female voice behind him. He spun around to have his eyes make contact with emerald orbs. Come to think of it shadow thought he had seen those same eyes before, just that were he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

What he couldn't deny was the fact she was very beautiful. Her eyes were mysterious and hypnotizing with her nose not too big or small nor was it fat or thin just right for her face. Her eyelashes were long and thick, her eyebrows slim and neat. Her lip were plumb and full looking soft and were one shade darker than her fur and was conclecing pearly white teeth all embedded in a fine heart shaped head. Her hair was long curly, just above her tail and flowed down her curves. While her hands showed how fragile and delicate she really was. Her hips were more curved and rounded then any woman he had ever been with. Her legs were muscular, long and slender making her legs the right type for kicking some real butt with her arms matching her legs. Wow she's gorgeous. I cannot believe a woman like her is real shadow thought, admiring the shopkeeper in a dazed state.

Amy gasped quietly to herself, daring not to take her eyes off of him. Over the years a little part of her was secretly hoping that they would meet again but this time to be able to become a couple. After that she would convince herself that it was nonsense as to hope of such a thing. It was like as if the gods from above had answered my prayers. Wait a minute what did I just think? Amy thought with disbelief. "Uh… I was just looking around" shadow replied to Amy. "Well what are looking for exactly?" Amy asked feeling jealousy bubble in, like a liquid. "Hm… oh no I am not getting married. I was walking by and I saw your shop and seeming I was bored so I went in."

Amy let out a breath of relief. Good shadow is still single. Wait a minute why am I glad? I thought I would hate him for as I lived. What is happening to me? Amy was rubbing her temple gently, soothing the headache she was developing. Shadow noticed and asked "are you alright? Is there something wrong?" "No there's nothing wrong" she reassured him.

While shadow was in the shop Amy showed him all the dresses. Shadow was amazed at the style and designs that were sewed on to the silk. While they walking the other couldn't help but keep looking at each other. They looked away when they thought they could be caught. A few hours later and they had practically looked at every dress more than twice but shadow couldn't bear to leave the shop and the shopkeeper, to possibly never return. Amy kept glancing at the clock. It read ten minutes to six pm. She would soon have to close the shop but she did not want him to go, which was confusing for her. He had broken her heart and yet she was willing to let him back into her life.

Here we go first chapter. Please tell me if I need to improve it because I think I was losing it. R and R!
