Dear Diary,

I don't think I'll ever forget what happened today. It all started when Sonic, Cream, Tails, Chris, and I went to the beach. Everything was pretty normal except I started to notice something a bit odd about Sonic. He didn't ignore me or try to run away from me the entire day. It actually seemed like he was having a good time around me. Then, something I thought would never happen in a million years happened.

"Amy," he said, walking over to where I was sitting, "could I speak to you privately for a minute?"

"Sure," I said.

We walked for a little while until we got to a small bunch of palm trees.

"Amy, " he said, "I've been thinking about something today. "

"About what?" I asked.

"Well," he started, "I know you really like me, and I was kind of wondering if…"

I smiled. Could this be what I've been waiting so long to hear? I thought.

"You wanted to be my girlfriend" he finished.

"Yes!" I squealed as I gave him a hug.

At that moment, I didn't know what to do. I felt as if I was floating on a cloud. My dream had finally come true; Sonic and I were together.

A little later, I decided to go for a swim. Suddenly, the waves started to get bigger and it was becoming harder for me to stay above the water as I was gradually being pulled under.

"Sonic!" I screamed, "Help me!"

"Amy!" he screamed, jumping into the ocean.

After that, everything started to get very dark around me and the only thing I could hear was the sound of the water…

"Amy?" I heard a familiar voice say, "Amy, are you okay?"

"Huh?" I said, trying to wake up. I opened my eyes. I was back at Chris' house and Cream and the others were standing around me.

"Oh my gosh!" said Cream, "we were so worried about you."

"How did I get here?" I asked.

"Tails and I rescued you." answered Chris.

I looked around at my friends and then I noticed something. Someone was missing.

"Where's Sonic?" I asked.

Tails bowed his head and Cream looked as if she was about to cry.

"Amy," said Chris, "there's no easy way to say this but…he's dead."

"What?" I asked, as tears started to stream from my eyes.

"He drowned trying to save you" said Tails.

"No!" I cried, "No! It can't be true! I can't survive without Sonic!"

"I'm sorry, Amy" said Tails.
