Warnings:

THIS IS A SONAMY STORY WITH SOME (little bit of) Cream/Tails Knux/Rouge pairings

I DO NOT OWN SONIC OR ANY OF HIS FRIENDS

MILD VIOLENCE, MILD CURSING, AND ALCOHOL REFERENCES MIGHT (ahem will) OCCUR

IF YOU ARE OFFENDED, DO NOT READ (simple enough right)

This is a fanfiction based on an older, more independent version of Amy Rose that still has feelings toward her blue hero. And obviously Sonic is older as well in this version and will have to deal with his own feelings after meeting with new Amy. Oh and don't forget about Eggman!

Act 1

BBBBBBBBUUUUUUUUUUUUZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

BBBBBBBBUUUUUUUUUUUUUZZZZZZZZZZZ

"UGh, morning already?"

She yawned, streching her arms up towards her apartment ceiling. Annoyed by the noise, the pink hedgehog reached over and disabled the alarm clock on her nightstand. She slowly threw her long legs over the side of her bed, her toes resting on the soft carpet below.

"Last day of school and then its work, work, and more work, yipeee…." she stated in a sarcastic tone as she shuffled towards her bathroom mirror. Her body had matured gracefully as she looked over her curvy feminine figure. She was beautiful in the eyes of many but she seemingly failed to notice it. Picking up a brush, she ran it through her quills as the tips moved against the small of her back. The 16 year old teenager in pjs looked herself over in the mirror, playing with her tuff of bang quills. Time to get ready for the day, I guess. Her jade green eyes looked to her shower, thinking about how good the warm water would feel on her skin.

She was pulled out of her thoughts when she heard her cellphone buzzing on her dresser. Walking quickly over to it, she let a smile spread across her face

"Hey Cream"

"Gooooooooddddd Morning Amy! Aren't you excited?! One more day till summer break!"

Geez, Cream was certainly a morning person. Amy plopped down on her red bedspread as she listened to the happy rabbit on the line.

"Yup, and then its working at the ice parlor for me this summer" the hedgehog replied dryly.

"Ooh Amy, you have to come with me back to station square! I know you haven't been back in years and you KNOW how good the shopping is there! We can even hit Emerald Coast! PPPPLLLLLEEEEEEAAAAASSSSSEEEE AMY!

She was not going to let this go! She wants to see Tails, that's all this is!

Amy sighed and slowly started to pick out her clothes for the day as she continued to listen to Cream's pleading.

"Cream, I'm really happy you want me to come but I've got alot of things to do this summ-"

"You do not! Please Amy, it will just be us girls...and maybe Tails for a bit but WE are teenagers, WE HAVE TO GET OUT AND LIVE! Let's own Station Square, we've already conquered this city!

Amy had to laugh at that. It's true, high school was amazing so far for her. She was cheer captain, popular, and had nothing but high marks in her classes. Shy but pretty Cream was class president and adored by both student and teacher alike. They had thrown parties, gone on dates, and both had awesome times in the past couple years. Best friends without a doubt! But she was uneasy about going back to Station Square…. She shook head, refusing to allow a certain memory to come up.

"Cream, I'd love to but uh I have work and I can't let Sam down,..."

"But Amy, I talked to Sam yesterday at his ice cream shop and begged him to let you vacation with me! And he said yes!"

"Whh-whhat?!"

"He said you've been working too hard lately anyway, everyone needs a break. See? Now you HAVE to come with me" Cream squealed with delight. Amy was stunned, she had lost her trump card to get out of this little adventure. Sensing the hedgehog's disappointment on the phone, Cream spoke to Amy in a cautious tone.

"Amy, what's wrong? I thought you would be estatic that you could go!"

"Well, I just….just…"

"Don't you want to hang out with me, Amy? I promise we'll have fun!"

"No Cream, I'd love hanging out with you it's just that's were…."

"...Amy, are you afraid of running into Sonic?"

Amy from shock almost dropped the phone with the mention of his name. Turning red and trying not to sound flustered, she could hear Cream calling out to her, worried by the noise of the phone being fumbled around.

"Amy are you still there? Hello?"

"I'm here Cream, just accidently dropped my phone. That's all!"

"Amy, is that why you don't want to go? Are you worried of seeing him?"

"Uh no, no it's fine really, I'm over it Cream.

"... I'm sorry Amy, I didn't even think about that! I mean, Tails and I skype almost all the time and it was so dumb of me not to think about the fact Sonic and him are best friends if not brothers. Oh Amy I feel so bad!"

Amy sighed, knowing her friend was truly upset by her mistake.

"Look Cream, it's okay. I'm okay, I've moved on, and hey look at us now. Just hey give me a day to pack and we'll leave first thing tomorrow."

"Really Amy? I don't want to force you into this but I promise it'll be fun. We probably won't even see him so don't worry! Oh, I'm so happy, thank you Amy!"

"It's cool, I'll see you tomorrow!"

After hanging up, she fell back against her queen size bed watching the fan blades gently spin.

It's been years since I've seen him, I need to get over this...him

She slowly began to think about the last time she had seen Sonic, the speedster that had ruled her life back then…..

Sonic, Sonic the hedgehog…...

…..

Sonic, how do you really feel?

The two sat on a park bench, watching the sun slowly set behind the trees. Amy did her best not to stare at her hero as she pretended to smooth out her red dress. Her gold bracletts were reflecting what was left of the sun's light. Amy's thoughts raced inside her head.

He's perfect, just like a dream…. There's no one that even comes close to him!

The blue hedgehog sighed and stood up as Amy looked over at him suddenly.

"Huh? Sonic?"

His green eyes and famous smirk answered her as he streched, obviously getting ready for a run.

"You know me Amy, I can't stay in one place for too long!"

Pouting, she lifted herself from the bench and placed herself in front of him. A tad taken back, Sonic shot the pink hedgehog a quizzical look.

"Uhh… something wrong?"

"Sonic, I want you to tell me how you feel about me…. about us."

She watched as he tensed up over her words and avoided her eyes.

"Uhhh…ummmm…..."

The blue hedgehog was obviously panicking. The little pink hedgehog grabbed his gloved hand, trying establish a connection. He froze, stunned by her quick movement and looked into her glassy jade orbs.

"Sonic please! I want the truth! You have known all along how I feel about you and it's not fair for you not to tell me how you feel!"

Sonic tried to gently pull back away from her, but Amy refused to let go of his hand.

"Amy, I can't-"

"Sonic, please, I can handle it! Please just tell me that you care, that you feel the same way."

"...Amy….."

He stared at his shoes, refusing to look up at the girl crumbling before him. She let go of his hand and slowly folded her hands in front of her. She was shaking, full of emotion. Sonic sighed and glanced up at her.

"Amy, I don't… I don't know"

Amy's breathing stopped. The blue hedgehog folded his arms across his chest and stared out into the distance. Time seemed to freeze as his words echoed in her head...

"... Look, you said you wanted the truth well this is it Amy…. Truth is I don't know how I feel about you and I ever being a couple. I mean, you're still really young Amy, c'mon…...I'm not ready now and I don't know if I'll ever be Amy. I do really care about you and I don't want to hurt you but I just want to be free…...that's really the only thing I want. I'm sorry, I just don't think I'm the right gu- Amy!"

She couldn't stop the tears streaming down her face as she ran as fast as her legs could carry her away from the source of her pain. Sonic instintively started after her but changed his mind as he watched her disappear from sight.

…..

"I'm not that little girl anymore"

Amy sat up as a look of determination settled on her face.

I'm over you Sonic! I have my own life now and I'm not going to let the thought of you ruin my vacation with Cream! You're ancient history blue boy!

Standing up and feeling empowered, she glanced over her clock suddenly cringing.

"...And now I'm LATE for my last day of school!"
