I am out of school! And let's celebrate by reading this new ShadAmy fic! Remember "Love at Twinkle Park"? Well, here's the sequel! Enjoy the first chappie!
Shadow just finished setting things up in the bedroom. All he had set up were the candles on the dressers, lots of romantic CD's on the stereo, and some raspberry rose pedals on the bed. He checked around to see if he had everything. Everything was just right.
"Perfect", he said and zipped out of the room.
Downstairs, Amy was finishing washing the dishes. Once she got done, she wiped the sweat off of her forehead, took off the rubber gloves, and threw them in the sink.
"Finally", she sighed peacefully. "Now I can get a goodnight sleep-,"
"Dishes are done? Good, let's go", Shadow popped out of nowhere, grabbed her hand, and pulled her out of the kitchen hurriedly.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, what's going on?" Amy tugged Shadow by the hand to stop.
"…Look", Shadow sighed lightly. "I know it's only been two weeks, but…"
"What?" Amy blinked with confusion.
"Ames", Shadow turned to her sweetly. "Let's make love tonight."
"That's it?" the pink hedgehog raised an eyebrow and sweatdropped.
"Oh, c'mon", Shadow slapped his forehead. "I mean, I can't wait any longer than two weeks. Just one night and I'll shut up about it, ok?" he begged.
"…" Amy pondered for a little bit. Then she sighed. "Fine."
"Yes!" the black hedgehog raised a fist with pride.
"Just let me check on the kids first, and then I'll meet you in the bedroom", Amy looked at her watch.
"Okie-dokie!" Shadow zipped back to their bedroom.
Amy sighed. Yes, they're married. Ever since they got together at Twinkle Park, things have changed. Besides getting married too soon, they bought the expensive house that they were living in, and had two kids, Zach (who looked like Shadow) and Jenny (who looked like Amy, except her hair was shorter). Although, Shadow can be annoying to her sometimes. Basically, all he wants to do nowadays is...well, "you know", with her. Anyways, once Amy got to Jenny's room, she could hear some arguing going on.
"You're such a big fat liar!" Jenny yelled angrily. "Santa Claus does exist!"
"Yeah right", Zach scoffed. "He's only a fairytale that parents tell to their children so they can stop being retarded all the time. Plus, how the heck can that guy fit into every chimney in the world?! He's fat!"
"Don't be a hater", Jenny replied rudely.
"Oh, did I also tell you that the Easter Bunny doesn't exist either?" Zach continued.
"Liar!" Jenny hollered at him wrathfully.
"I mean, what's with a rabbit carrying eggs? I mean, birds and chickens lay eggs. And since when does that all have to do with the third day of Jesus Christ coming back to life?"
"There are plenty of reasons!"
"Oh, did I also tell ya that the tooth-fairy's fake also?"
"Shut up!"
"Oh, but it's true. All of the money that you received was only from Mom or Dad when they hid some under your pillow."
"Hey, what's with all of the ruckus?" Amy walked in the room.
"Mom, tell Zach that he's a big fat liar and he doesn't belong to this family", Jenny turned to her for support as she pointed at him impolitely.
"I'm only telling her the truth", her older brother crossed his arms.
"Well, could you two not yell so much?" the mother rubbed her eye temples.
"My bad", Zach apologized.
"My bad also", Jenny apologized.
"Good. Now both of you, sleep", Amy commanded.
"Mom, it's Friday night, it's the middle of summer, and it's only 8:00 in the evening", Zach said as he sweatdropped. "Plus, we're not even tired yet."
"Then watch TV", his mother replied.
"We could, but…" Zach turned on Jenny's TV with the remote.
Everyone paid attention to the TV screen. All it said was a "PLEASE STAND BY" message as it made the annoying noise. Even when Zach changed the channels, the message kept popping up. After trying for the fifth time, Zach turned off the TV and threw the remote to the ground.
"Every channel is blocked for some reason", Jenny said with bore. "Hey!" she looked at her mother happily. "Maybe you can tell us a story!"
"Huh?" Amy blinked twice.
"Not one of those old, boring Mother Goose stories. Maybe another story about you and Dad", Jenny suggested.
"Besides, the first one sucked", Zach added. "So we're wondering what happened after that, and when we came in."
"Well…There is this long story that I still remember", Amy pondered. "Have I ever told you guys about the time your father and I went on a cruise trip to Hawaii?"
"No, tell us", the kids begged.
"Ok", Amy sighed as she sat on a chair next to Jenny's bed.
"So how does it start?" Zach asked as he sat up.
"Well, this all took place two weeks after the Twinkle Park incident", Amy started. "It all started when…." she begins to tell the story.
"Love on Cruise Rosemary"
Chapter One
Two weeks have passed since Amy and Shadow became a couple. So far, they've been staying at an apartment not too far from Twinkle Park itself. And Shadow really kept his promise. No strippers, no going to stripper clubs, all of that stuff. Still, he kinda missed the "good ole days"…
One lovely Thursday afternoon, Amy woke up from the sound of Shadow's loud snoring. Believe it or not, he sounded like a big bear in the woods! The female hedgehog sat up and rubbed her eyes tiredly. This is usually how she wakes up everyday. At first, she kept complaining about it to herself, but she got used to it. And so, she got out of bed in her red PJ's and left the bedroom. Shadow continued to snore as he drooled on his pillow.
Once she went to the kitchen, Amy began to make some breakfast. She tied her messy hair into a ponytail and got the food out of the fridge. After she set the table, she yawned. Everyday, she wakes up bored. So she decided to do something different. She turned on the radio. It began to play an old 80's classic, One Way or another by Blondie. For a few seconds, Amy began to bob her head to the tune. Then she closed her eyes and played an imaginary guitar.
One way or another I'm gonna find ya
I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna win ya
I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna see ya
I'm gonna meetcha meetcha meetcha meetcha
One day, maybe next week
I'm gonna meetcha, I'm gonna meetcha, I'll meetcha
Amy picked up a fork and started lip singing the song.
I will drive past your house
And if the lights are all down
I'll see who's around
And as she continues to lip sing, Amy starts spinning the pans around playfully.
One way or another I'm gonna find ya
I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna win ya
I'll getcha, I'll getcha
One way or another I'm gonna see ya
I'm gonna meetcha meetcha meetcha meetcha
One day, maybe next week
I'm gonna meetcha, I'll meetcha
Afterwards, Amy starts flipping one food after another-like eggs, pancakes, bacon and sausages-onto hers and Shadow's clean white plates with a couple of spatulas-like Spongebob Squarepants. Then she slides across the floor to the fridge and pulls out a huge jug of Sunny Delight orange juice. Sure it was kinda heavy, but that didn't stop her from having fun. Carefully, she pours some of the beverage into the two glass cups.
And if the lights are all out
I'll follow your bus downtown
See who's hanging out
Just as the singing stop and the guitars began to play, Amy starts rocking out with her imaginary guitar again. However, she didn't notice that Shadow just walked to the entrance as he rubbed his eyes. He stopped as he widened his eyes. He watches Amy having fun and let a sweatdrop appear on his right cheek.
One way or another I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna give you the slip, a slip of the lip or another
I'm gonna lose ya, I'm gonna trick ya, I'll trick ya
One way or another I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna trick ya trick ya trick ya trick ya
One way or another I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna give you the slip
I'll walk down the mall
Stand over by the wall
Where I can see it all
Find out who ya call
Lead you to the supermarket checkout
Some specials and rat food, get lost in the crowd
If you're wondering, Amy still doesn't notice Shadow watching her oddly…
One way or another I'm gonna getcha, I'll getcha, I'll getcha getcha getcha getcha
(Where I can see it all, find out who ya call)
One way or another I'm gonna getcha, I'll getcha, I'll getcha getcha getcha getcha
(Where I can see it all, find out who ya call)
One way or another I'm gonna getcha, I'll getcha, I'll getcha getcha getcha getcha
(Where I can see it all, find out who ya call)
(Repeats until the song fades)
Once Amy finally stops and opens her eyes, she sees Shadow staring at her with sweatdrops appearing on his face. She sweatdropped also. Boy, this was embarrassing for her.
"Um, what're you doing?" Shadow asked strangely.
"Um, nothing", Amy rubbed the back of her head awkwardly. She let out a nervous laugh.
An hour later, Shadow sat on the couch and picked up the remote. Then he turned on the TV. As he started channel surfing, Amy walked in with her regular clothes.
"Um, what do you think you're doing?" she asked annoyingly as she placed her hands on her hips.
"I'm about to watch Jerry Springer", Shadow replied as he turned to the channel, which was showing Jerry Springer. Right now, the guests, which were two chicks, were getting into a cat fight. Of course, the crowd shouted "JERRY! JERRY!" as the security guards tried to break up the fight.
"Again?" Amy said revoltingly.
"I love this show", Shadow kicked back. "Yeah, take her shirt off!" he cheered at the TV.
"Say, can I watch America's Next Top Model, just for today?" the pink hedgehog asked nicely.
"No", the black and red hedgehog quickly replied softly.
"Why not!?" Amy yelled furiously.
"Because I said so", Shadow replied calmly. "Besides, America's Next Top Model sucks."
"Well, Jerry Springer sucks more", Amy responded rudely.
"Oh yeah?" Shadow looked back at her heatedly.
"Yeah", Amy crossed her arms.
"Yeah?"
"Yeah."
"Hmph", Shadow turned around and continued to watch his show.
Ok, now that made Amy REALLY mad. First of all, she was the one that let Shadow stay with her ever since he didn't pay his rent to the landowner at his old apartment. And second of all, he knows all of the rules in the place! After all, he had TV time all day yesterday, so it was now Amy's turn!
Aggressively, Amy grabbed the remote, but Shadow didn't let go of it. They growled as they did a little tug-a-war fight. And then, Amy pulled back the remote, causing Shadow to fall backwards off the couch. But he didn't give up. He growled some more as he tried to pull the remote from his rowdy girlfriend. Shortly after that, Shadow tackled her down on the vanilla white carpet floor. Then he and Amy got into a fighting cloud. They fought around the couch for at least three times as they kept pressing the buttons on the remote, changing channels as they did so. Just after they were in front of the couch, they stopped and the fighting cloud disappeared (and they accidentally turned to a channel where a lot of commercials were on). Amy was on top of Shadow, with one hand choking him and the right hand trying to pull the remote from his hand. Shadow had one hand pulling her hair as his right hand was still protecting the remote.
"Hello! Are you tired of the everyday schedule?" a male's voice said optimistically.
"Huh?" Shadow and Amy looked at the TV curiously.
"Then you and your lover will love the all new Cruise Rosemary!" the announcer said on the TV as it showed a large expensive cruise-ship. "As time goes by, you'll love the delicious food, the beautiful ocean breeze, dancing on the dance floor, and relaxing at the spa for free!"
"Hey!" Shadow whined as Amy took the remote and turned up the volume.
"Get your tickets for you, your lover, your friends, or whatever, so that way you can have a blast!" the announcer continued.
"What do we have to do? Order them on the internet?" Amy wondered.
"Gimme that", Shadow snatched the remote out of her hand and turned the channel.
"Hello, I'm Scarlet Garcia, and I'm reporting live at Emerald Beach", the female reporter said. "As you can see behind me, lots of people have gathered to take down Station Square's famous wrestler, Jock Strap, which is an odd name, in order to win free tickets to the Cruise Rosemary trip! So far, only 50 of the contestants have failed. Even the old people didn't get a hit on him. Who will be the last one standing? I'm Scarlet Garcia, and that's today's news update."
"Back to Jerry", Shadow turned his show back on.
"Dude, we must go", Amy got off of him.
"Why?" her boyfriend looked at her unsurely.
"Because, we could easily save our money, and we'll be able to go on that awesome cruise trip!" the pink female said joyfully. "And I could really use a free spa treatment", she sighed heavenly.
"Yeah right", the dark hedgehog scoffed sarcastically as he continued watching his show upside down. "I'm not going."
"Yes, you are", Amy said orderly.
"And what if I don't?" Shadow looked at her ungratefully.
"THEN I'LL TEAR YOUR LIMBS OUT!!" Amy shouted at his face in a demon voice with flames circling around her.
"Um…Ok", Shadow whispered frightfully.
"Nice start", Jenny said cheerfully.
"Wow, you're so demanding", Zach said surprisingly. "I feel so bad for Dad…"
"Yeah, that's how I was back then", the mother rubbed the back of her head shyly. "So what do you think of the story so far?"
"Keep going!" Jenny chanted.
"Once again, Mom's a crazy psycho", Zach looked away with bore.
"WHAT WAS THAT?!" his mother yelled devilishly with flames circling around her and her eyes turned red.
"Um, um, nothing!" Zach lied as he turned to her fearfully. "Nothing at all."
Stay tuned for the next chappie! For the first time, I'm doing previews for upcoming chappies! So here's the first one!
Preview:
"Are you sure you want me to do this, Amy?" Shadow looked back at his girlfriend nervously after he took a look at the huge wrestler.
"Don't worry! I'll cheer for you!" Amy said happily as she pulled out a couple of red and white pompoms.
"I'm screwed", Shadow looked at the wrestler doubtfully.
And that's the preview! See you next time!
