A/N: Hahaha! Nobody thought I would ever update, did they?! Well IN YOUR FACE! At any rate, I am terribly sorry it took so long; I did take a crack at it many times but never felt satisfied. So I just said "fuck it" and pumped out a chapter for you guys. Cause I love you all :b Sorry it's so short.
Oh, and I will edit this when I'm not so tired, I promise. It's not very good
Sonic ran. He ran just as he always had. He ran away.
He ran away from Amy. He ran to erase the image of her face; her face fallen in defeat and heartbreak. Fallen in disappointment and crushed hopes. When Sonic was younger he hadn't given much thought to how much he hurt her, he had much more important things to worry about than his crazy fangirl. Nevermind that she claimed to be in love with him, Sonic did not fully understand the concept of love- because he had not experienced it yet. He never had a family to show him what love meant, and sure, he did care for all of his friends but just as that. Friends.
When he began to realize how he felt for Amy he did what he always did. Run. He hoped maybe that if he filled his body with enough adrenaline and his mind with a euphoric haze that he would eventually run off his obsession with her. But then his mind cleared enough to solely focus on her. All he could think of was the times he had hurt her, and how much he wanted to care for her.
How much he wanted to help everyone else with her, because that's what she always did. How he wanted to run with her instead of away. He wanted to finally touch her and hold her; to stroke her soft pink quills that he had always imagined as exquisitely soft; to capture those plump peachy lips that he all-to-vividly remembered pouting at him.
But more than anything he wanted to tell her that he was sorry.
And that was what he thought of now. He thought of her face turned up at him, scrunched in anger and streaked with tears. His felt his throat swell. He could understand the anger she threw at him; he hated himself. But he was trying so much to make it right and get closer to her.
He knew that it was too late. She had suffered so much because of him that she would never let him anywhere near her again.
Sonic slowed to a stop and stared at the ground beneath him. He wanted to simply disappear. He wished he could curl up in a ball and fade from the world.
With a sigh he realized that he would have to enlist help if he ever wanted Amy. As much as it would kill his pride that he could not make it on his own, there was no way he could just give up.
