well what can I say heres the story enjoy
Together forever or never
Sonic closed his eyes and let the memories flow back to him. He put his body on autopilot and became absorbed in the past. The piano where he was softly playing, the spotlight that only made himself visible and blocked out the crowd and the rest of the band slowly began to fade away. To sonic it might as well be only him out there and he didn't care that he was crying. Yes Sonic the Hedgehog was openly crying and didn't care because the one thing he cared about most was gone
I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Earlier that day
Sonic sat in the bathroom of his RV staring at the glove in his hand. Slowly moving it in his hands like it might disappear or fall into a pile of dust on the floor. He slowly slid it on his right hand and flexed to check its fitting. He ended up staring at the palm as the memory came back.
Flash back 2 and half years ago
Sonic stepped out of his shower, grabbed the towel from the rack and wrapping it around his waist He made his way to the sink taking a rag and wiping the mirror till he could see himself. He pulled out the drawer that held his toothbrush; he took it and some toothpaste and began his routine. After brushing he snaked his hands through his quills slowly making his signature spikes form. When he was satisfied he unwrapped the towel and dried himself off. Put his towel back on the rack. He took his shoes that were just right of the sink and put them on. He grabbed his left glove and put it on before doing the same with the right, but he stopped and stared at the glove before he chuckled. Still clutching the glove he exited the bathroom, entering his room he made his way past his blue bed, he stopped at the table by the head he stared at the object on it. On the table was a picture of him and blaze at this year's Christmas party. He was wearing the traditional Santa stocking hat while blaze was in her usually attire. Mistletoe was hung up above them and they were kissing. Sonic smiled it was their first kiss, yes they were dating for 6 months then but they wanted it to be natural not rushed. He tore himself away from the picture and made his way out the door and down the hall. When he got to his living room he stopped. There she was, sitting on his couch as beautiful as ever, her hair was down and no matter what it landed perfectly. Her gold glowing eyes were more precious than the master emerald itself. Her perfectly sculpted curves was the stuff of legends to him. He walked up behind the couch, resting his elbows on the headrest.
"hey, Blaze I think I took one of your gloves by accident." Sonic said softly, She turned so she was on her knees looking at him.
"yeah, you did and I took one of yours." Blaze said normally. Sonic smiled and reached out the hand that was holding her glove.
"Thought so" said Sonic "here's yours back." Blaze took her hands of the headrest and motioned to take of Sonic's glove. She stopped and stared it before looking back at Sonic
"No" Blaze answered.
"huh?"
"I'm going to keep this" she held up Sonic's glove before pointing to hers "and you're going to keep that. This way no matter where we are, we will always have each other." Sonic smiled and slipped on the glove.
"perfect." He said smiling.
"the glove or me?" said Blaze smirking
"both" sonic smirked and leaned till his lips met hers.
End Flashback
He smiled at the memory, and just as quick as it came it left. He stood up, taking his cloak with him. He looked himself over in the mirror, putting on his cloak he felt his RV lurch to a stop. He sighed and stepped out of the bathroom making his way to the door. He could hear all the people outside clamering to see him. He took a deep breath, flipping up the hood that hid his face, he wouldn't have it on long but for now it was needed.
Present time
Sonic was snapped back to his present self. Though no one noticed his mind was never really here and for that matter nether was his heart. No, they off with her, they will always be with her. Even if hers weren't with him, no matter he kept playing the piano and singing the words to the song that was oh so true for him.
Just prayin' to a god that I don't believe in
Cos I got time while she got freedom
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't break even
Earlier that day
Sonic took a deep breath and opened the door to his RV. Immediately he was blinded from the camera flashes. Reporters trying to surround him to get the inside scoop only to be pushed back by his body guards while he kept walking. Normally he would have stopped and posed for the camera's and signed a few autographes. But that was different, that was back when she was with him. and now she isn't so he kept walking. The red carpet bringing back another great memory of them.
Flashback 1 and a half years ago
They were riding in Sonic's limo hovercar, his arm was around her shoulder. He was leaning back in his chair waiting for their destination, while she was leaning on his shoulder, stretched out on the seat with hers eyes closed but he could tell she wasn't really asleep. They were riding to the award show and it 2 weeks for Sonic to convince Blaze to go with him.
"so, remind me again why we have to take my limo?" Sonic said. Blaze opened one eye and tilted her head up to look at her boyfriend before returning her head to its original position and closed her eye.
"because if there will as many people as you say there will" said Blaze while once gain looking at Sonic "I won't be showing up being carried like some damsel in distress…I still have an image to uphold." Sonic chuckled and looked out of the tinted windows.
"looks like we're almost there." Sonic said excitly, Blaze up and looked for herself. She yawned and leaned back onto her seat and sonic. "I would say act normal but you'd probably end up torching a reporter." He ended up laughing at his own joke.
"and they would have deserved it." Blaze said and only succeeded in making Sonic laugh even more. Looking at him she couldn't help but laugh alittle bit too. Only he can make her see the funny side of this. When he calmed enough to stop laughing he continued their ongoing joke .
"and I'll be on the ground laughing my head off as the guy runs around screaming." This time Blaze was the first to let out a small chuckle, they felt the car stop and the engine go into idle. They waited for the body guards to clear a path to the door through the crowd of reporters and Sonic's fans. Blaze starting smoothing out her hair and clothes and when someone grabbed her hand. She turned to see Sonic shaking his head.
"stop" he commanded lowering her hand and slowly leaning in "you look gorgeous." Blaze smiled and met him halfway. Sonic loved her smile, it looked good on her. But he would never ask her to smile more, no never, he liked her just the way she was and when she did smile for him it made it all that more special. And you know how much he loved a challenge. Now the path was clear, a guard opened the door and Sonic stepped out. Immediately the crowd broke out in cheers, he smiled as the camera's started flashing. He could feel the tension as he turned back to the car, everyone was wondering who he brought with him. he took Blaze's hand and helped her out of the car. He could feel all his girl fans, which was about ¾ of the crowd, either be crushed, mad, or crushed straight into madness. When she was fully out of the car he whispered in her ear "the press are going to have a field day with us." It took all her will power not to laugh, after all she still had to maintain her image. He put his around her waist and walked behind the body guards.
"you know every girl in this crowd hates me for being with you" Blaze answered back as they walked down the red carpet. They stopped for Sonic to sign so autographs and a couple questions for a couple lucky reporters.
"good maybe they'll finally back off" Sonic retorted. Blaze began to look amongst the crowd, she noticed the girls eyeing her boyfriend and Sonic could tell when the temperature went up a few degrees. He looked at her and she was threating to start steaming. He smiled because he knew what she was thinking. "calm down, you know I only have eyes for you." Thankful she did calm down alittle. Once their joke in the car almost came through when one reporter asked if they had sex. Blaze grabbed the guy and ignited her hand.
"ask that again and you'll be swimming on the sun just to cool off" Blaze said angrily, though Sonic was laughing at the irony of the situation, he was able to pull his angry girlfriend from the scared reporter. That was one face that no matter what has happened they have always been able to laugh at.
Expect now
End Flashback
he got to backstage, he kept walking to the stage. He did have to talk to the stage hands they all could his bad mood. Bad… that wasn't nearly enough justice to what he was exactly feeling. He reached the curtain that separated backstage to the actual stage. Without hesitation or warning he pulled back the curtain walked on stage. The cheers the crowd was roaring feel on deaf ears, he stopped at the bench to his piano. Normally he would be on the guitar, but this wasn't normal. He reached up to the end of the hood that hid his face. Pulling it back he revealed his face to the world, on national Television, on the concert that he said would be his last, the concert that sold out in 3.8 seconds flat. So he knew she was watching, he knew that, and she will hear that she broke up with the most famous person in the world without doubt. He knew that she would also know that this concert was for her. He stood staring at the piano, the same piano that she inspired him to play on and become the most know rock star. He sat down on the cold hard bench, but it wasn't nearly as cold as his heart, nothing was. And he played…pouring everything left in his heart in the keys.
Present time
Did Sonic know where he was in the song…hell no, but was he still singing it perfectly…hell yes, he didn't need to know the words, he just needed to know his life. Because that was what this song was about, the story of his life.
Her best days will be some of my worst
She finally met a man that's gonna put her first
While I'm wide awake she's no trouble sleeping
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven... even... no
The big hook, the showstopper, the punch line as he neared the sword in his heart he couldn't help but remember the last moment, the moment his soul died…his end
What am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you,
And what am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up that you're ok
I'm falling to pieces, yeah,
I'm falling to pieces
Flash back 1 week ago
He was standing on the bridge watching the water pass below him, the fish swimming ignorant of what was to happen. He held a note in his hand saying to come. He smiled as he watched the sun set over the river and the city.
"Sonic" he turned to see his girlfriend standing 10 feet away from him. her tone wasn't one of happiness, more like one of demandment, sorrowful, labored.
"Blaze there you…are" Sonic lost his voice, her face said all. He knew something was wrong, he could feel the near future holding heartbreak "Blaze?" he asked with worry and concern "what's wrong?" Blaze knew where his heart was going. She knew it was on a crash course with the steel wall of reality…and she couldn't stop it.
"Sonic…I…"she lost her voice, tears were threating to come. But she had to stay strong. The more she looked at him the more she couldn't do it. It was becoming too hard and every second she didn't answer he would become more worried and she would become more guilty. But she had to say it, she took a deep breath and blurted it out "Sonic I'M BREAKING UP" immediately she felt regret, she watched as his faced turned from worried to unacceptance.
"no, no…please tell me you're joking." Tears were swelling up and falling from both their eyes. And when she didn't answer he only became more desperate. "Blaze please don't, if it was something I did I'm sorry, but I can change just please don't leave me…I-I love you."
"please Sonic stop, people grow apart, old love dies" Blaze was shaking, she couldn't stop the tears that wear falling from her eyes. "Just don't make this any harder than it has to be."
"if it's so hard than it just proves that you still have feelings" Sonic retorted, she shook her head, he took a shaky step toward her. But she stopped with her hand.
"no Sonic, it's over" and just like that she left, but he didn't know was that his last words still haunted her 'you still have feelings…still have feelings' she kept pushing the thoughts behind trying to leave them with Sonic, who was on his knees with pure shock written on his face.
Present time
Just thinking about the break up brought back every little emotion, bitterness, sadness, regret. After that night he shut out everyone, no one not even Tails saw him. no one saw or heard from him till he called his manager and told him his plan. And knew everyone knew his pain, and the crowd seemed to like the song. There were lighters in the air being waved around and he mad and bitter at them. Why? For thinking this was just another song when it was so much more. Maybe if his mind was at the concert he would have seen a cloaked figure make its way through the crowd and into the second row. But he kept playing the song that wasn't written on any sheet, or prepared, no he was winging it and singing exactly what he was feeling.
They say bad things happen for a reason
But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding
Cos she's moved on while I'm still grieving
And when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven even... no
What am I gonna to do when the best part of me was always you,
And what am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up that you're ok
I'm falling to pieces, yeah,
I'm falling to pieces, yeah,
I'm falling to pieces
(One still in love while the other ones leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
(Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)
All he could remember was her, when she walked away. The day she drove a double edged sword straight through his heart. The day she tore away the best thing that ever happened to him. the day when she took away his reason for living. The day he died. And know he wanted her to know his pain. He wanted her to feel like he did. He wanted to return the favor.
Now was time for the final verse, the last verse that should drive home the nail right where he wanted it
Oh you got his heart and my heart and none of the pain
You took your suitcase, I took the blame.
Now I'm try'na make sense of what little remains ooh
Cos you left me with no love and no love to my name.
I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayin' to a god that I don't believe in
Cos I got time while she got freedom
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't break
No it don't break
No it don't break even no
What am I gonna do when the best part of me was always you and
What am I suppose to say when I'm all choked up that you're ok
(Oh glad your okay now)
I'm falling to pieces yeah
(Oh I'm glad your okay)
I'm falling to pieces yeah
(One still in love while the other ones leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
(Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)
As the other instrument began to fade away he continued with the last lines. The last lines before he's finished, before he's done and never to return
Oh it don't break even no
Oh it don't break even no
Oh it don't break even no
and just like that he was done, he got and walked off, mimicking her the day she did it to him. and yes it was over.
