*With Amy*
"Did that all really happened?" said Cream in amazement as she covered her mouth with her hands.
Rouge sighed. "Wish it didn't honey-bun…".
Me, Cream, and Rouge were all working at the daycare. We were all in our uniforms, which consisted of a bright yellow golf shirt with black pants. We looked like bumblebees. Inside the daycare, the walls were lime green and multiple hand prints of different colors ran along the walls. Several pictures drawn by the kids were taped on the hideous walls, along with some craft flowers and such. Kids were running and screaming everywhere, while a few little angels sat in the reading corner quietly. I turned my attention back to Cream.
"Amy, you didn't really hit someone…did you?" asked Cream with wide eyes.
C'mon, it wasn't even such a bad thing! When people heard about it, they looked at me like I murdered someone!
"I wouldn't call it 'hitting'. I call it 'teaching someone a lesson'" I said proudly.
Rouge snorted. "She hit someone alright. Threw her little fist like her life depended on it" she said giggling while gesturing a punch.
I just rolled my eyes at her. I felt something tugging on my pants and looked down to see a little fox with dazzling green eyes reaching for me.
"Hey, little guy" I said as I picked him up.
I loved kids. That was the whole reason because I got this job. I've volunteered here before and the manager saw how amazing I was the kiddies and before I knew it, I started working here. I told Cream about it first and she wanted to apply too. When Cream got the job, Rouge wanted to work here but only because me and Cream were here. He giggled as I made funny faces at him. He was adorable.
"Amy, are we still going out tonight?" asked Rouge while she played with another kid.
"Heck yes! I'm definitely looking forward to it, too" I said.
She nodded. "Hey, Cream! Come over here!" hollered Rouge over the noise of the kids.
She came over from playing duck-duck-goose with a group of girls. "Yeah?" she asked.
"Me and Amy Baby are going to Heat tonight. Wanna come?" asked Rouge, smiling.
"I'd love to go! It's been a heck of a long week" she said.
"It's a date then. Want to come over to my place to get ready, since I live closer to it?" I offered.
They both nodded in agreement.
"I don't know what to wear though…" said Cream a little sad.
"You can just borrow some of my clothes. I've got tons of outfits" I said to Cream.
"And I'll bring some other stuff too. I'm bringing makeup so don't worry about that" said Rouge.
"I got accessories covered" said Cream after.
"And I'll take care of the hair stuff" I finally said.
I was already excited for tonight! Heat was one of the most popular night clubs in Station Square. It was right in between the north side and the south side, so you got both groups coming to this club. It was affordable and they served the best drinks there too. The only problem about it was that it was usually packed and there could be some really creepy people there, too. But it was the only night club where you could really have fun and dance because the DJ's were always good.
The rest of the day passed by quickly and we all headed home. I cleaned up my house for Rouge and Cream's arrival. I went into the bathroom and took a quick shower. I let the warm water smooth out all of my tense back muscles. I was going to have fun tonight and I wasn't going to let anything ruin it. I stepped out and got my red bath robe. I put my long hair up in a towel to dry for a bit while I took out all of my hair straighteners and curlers followed by all of my hair products.
I went to my small but full closet to decide what I was going to wear. First, I took out a pair of ripped skinny jeans and a strapless white tank top with a black ribbon on it. I tried it on and decided that it wasn't what I wanted to wear. I wanted to look fun, dangerous yet sexy and seductive. I rummaged through all of my clothes when I spotted my black sequin cocktail dress. I smiled. It was perfect. I put it on and looked at myself in the mirror, satisfied. The dress was pretty short but I didn't care. It was shimmery and clung to my body, highlighting my curves and had thin straps. It said everything I wanted it to be tonight.
I took out the towel in my hair and let it fall. I wondered what I was going to do to my hair. I didn't want to straighten it because it would be too long. I quickly brushed it and dried it. It looked good messy and wavy, but I wanted more waves and volume in it. I plugged in my blue hair curler and that's when I heard the doorbell ring. I ran to the door and saw Rouge and Cream holding a bunch of things in their hands.
Rouge checked me out from head to toe and whistled. "That's hot" she said and walked past me to go to my room.
Cream smiled. "You look great" she said as she followed Rouge.
I followed them and Rouge took out all of her makeup. Cream brought a case wither accessories. Rouge squealed as she took out a leopard print dress with a sleeve on the right side. I had to admit, Rouge certainly knew how to dress for a party.
"I thought you'd wear the purple dress" I said. She shook her head.
"I want to look like a slut tonight" she said as she bit her lip. Cream was looking in my closet and took out a strapless red dress.
"Do you think this would look good?" she asked us as she held up the dress. Both me and Rouge nodded.
I went into the bathroom while the girls got dressed. My curler was hot so I took strands from the top of my head and twisted them onto the curler. I kept doing the same thing and worked my way to the middle and added some larger curls. My bangs gracefully swept across my forehead so I didn't need to fix them. I turned off the curler and grabbed my hairspray. I closed my eyes and sprayed everywhere around my hair. I finished and ruffled the top a bit. Rouge walked in and her eyes widened.
"Damn girl, you went all out" she said smiling approvingly at me.
"Not so bad, yourself" I said as I checked her out. Her dress was just as tight and just as short as mine. She plugged in the straightener and put some product in her hair.
"I'll be ten minutes. I'm doing makeup when I'm done" she called out as I went to my room. I saw Cream pull out a few gold bracelets from her box.
"Want me to do your hair?" I offered.
"Yes please" she said.
I went inside the bathroom and got my other straightener from under the sink. I went back into my room and plugged it in next to my vanity.
"Here" said Cream as she handed me a long, black beaded necklace along with a couple of thick bracelets.
"Thanks" I said as I put them on.
My look was officially completed. I sat down Cream in front of my mirror and began straightening her medium length hair. She already had straight hair so it wouldn't take me a while to finish. Rouge came in when I unplugged the straightener and looked at both me and Cream.
"Okay, who's makeup am I going to do first?" she asked us.
"Amy can go. I need to go to the washroom anyway" said Cream as she stood up.
I sat down as Rouge rummaged through her stuff. She took out some dark eye shadow along with mascara and eyeliner. She gave me the smokey eye look which made my eyes stand out. She put on the eyeliner and the mascara afterwards. She handed me the eyelash curler and I curled them myself.
"Put on some lip gloss" suggested Rouge.
I did as she told as I took out my tube of lip gloss. I smacked my lips together.
"Thanks Rouge. Looks great" I said while I looked at myself in the mirror.
"I know" she simply said as she went over to Cream to do her makeup.
At the end, Cream ended up with light eye shadow and some pink blush on her cheeks. Her hazel eyes definitely stood out and she had some beige lipstick on. Rouge had purple eye shadow on, along with some fake lashes. She had the right amount of eyeliner on and covered her lips with red lipstick. Cream gave Rouge some rings and some bracelets.
"Shoe time!" said Rouge as she pulled out her red heels. I went to my closet as Cream followed along to look for some heels.
"I don't want big heels…" said Cream. I laughed.
"You want to stay short forever, huh?" I said to her. She just laughed with me.
Cream was the shortest out of all of us. I was second shortest while Rouge was the tallest. I took out a pair of small black heels for her and took out a pair of glittery silver ones for me.
"Are we good to go?" asked Rouge.
"Yep" me and Cream said in unison.
I grabbed my silver purse and threw my wallet, lip gloss, and keys in it. Rouge grabbed her black purse while Cream got her white purse. I made sure turn everything off before we left the apartment. We walked to the club, since I lived only a few blocks away from it.
As soon as we got outside, I could already hear the loud thudding of the music and that just made me even more excited. A thought suddenly occurred to me. What if I saw Shadow there? I felt a sudden rush of butterflies in the pit of my stomach and it made me feel slightly nauseas. No, he's not going to be there. You're just imagining things I thought to myself to try to calm down.
But deep down inside, I knew tonight was going to be full of surprises.
*With Shadow*
(1 hour ago)
"C'mon Vanessa, go get ready!" I called out from the kitchen.
"Alright, alright! Bella made a stinky again though" said Vanessa as she ran to her room.
I heard Knuckles laugh from the living room.
"Yeah, Shadow. Go clean up the stinky" said Knuckles as he lay on the couch watching T.V.
I groaned as I threw the cloth on the counter. "Knuckles, would you like to do the honours?" I asked him, mockingly. He looked at me with wide eyes.
"Bro, you know I have a bad stomach. If I do it, then you'll have something else to clean up" he said as he slurped his can of beer.
I rolled my eyes at him and went to change Bella's diaper. As I got closer, I scrunched my nose. It smelled awful.
"What the hell did Vanessa feed you?" I muttered under my breath as I changed her diaper.
She just giggled as I finished up. I changed her into some pink pj's and ran my hand through her messy quills. The phone rang and I heard Knuckles pick it up.
"Yo, Shadow! It's for you" called out Knuckles.
I set down Bella back into her crib and went to the phone.
"Miss Gage" murmured Knuckles as he handed me the phone.
I nodded. "Hello?" I said.
"Hello, Shadow. I'm on my way to pick up the girls. I'll be five minutes" said Miss Gage.
"Alright. Thanks again" I said as I hung up.
Miss Gage was one of my mom's best friends before she died. At the funeral, Miss Gage promised me that she'd do whatever she could to help us out and that we should not be afraid to contact her for anything we needed. She helped me out with paying some bills and groceries sometimes. Every Sunday, she would come over to cook for us and she would entertain the girls for a bit. Miss Gage was like family to us and we all loved her very much. Although she could lose her temper sometimes and that was quite scary, she was a very caring lady.
"V! Miss Gage is coming in five minutes!" I called out to her.
"When are we going?" asked Knuckles.
"In half an hour" I said as I went to get Bella's stuff.
Me and Knuckles were going to go to Heat tonight. I needed to get my mind off of some things and just have fun with my friend. I couldn't help but get the feeling that a certain pink hedgehog could be there tonight, since both uptown and downtown people went there. If she was, then it would just make my night a whole lot better. I'd show her how we southsiders got down on the dance-floor.
I flinched when I saw Knuckles' fingers snapping in my face.
"Hello, earth to Shadow! What the hell were you zoning off about?" he asked me.
I just shook my head. "Think Amy's going to be there tonight?" I asked him.
I felt him tense up beside me. "If Amy's going to be there, then so is Rouge, right?" I went on, watching the color drain from his face.
I laughed as he punched me in the arm. Knuckles always talked about how Rouge was a self centered bitch but I knew he still had feelings for her. I rubbed my arm as I entered Bella's room. I picked her up from her crib and got her bag.
The doorbell rang and I heard Miss Gage greet Knuckles. Miss Gage was a large orange cat and she had curly ginger hair. She had dark eyes and dark bags under them. She had a heart warming smile though and a soothing voice. Bella reached out for Miss Gage as we approached her.
"Where's Vanessa?" asked Miss Gage.
"Here I am!" called Vanessa from behind us. I turned to her and saw that she was carrying a book, along with her teddy bear.
"Alright, I'll see you later!" called Miss Gage as she left with the girls. I waved goodbye and so did Knuckles.
I went into my room to change out of my baggy shirt and pants into something more decent. I pulled out a gray v-neck shirt that fit tightly around my muscles. I slipped into a pair of baggy ripped jeans and put on a black belt. I grabbed one of my chain necklaces and put it on. I looked at myself in the mirror and smirked. Chicks would be all over this bad-boy. I grabbed my cologne and sprayed it all over me. Knuckles came in, wearing a white muscle shirt and some black skinny jeans. He grabbed the cologne out of my hands and sprayed it on himself.
I looked at him. "Shots?" I asked him.
"Shots" he agreed, smirking.
I nodded and walked into the kitchen to grab a bottle of vodka and two shot glasses. I poured some in for us as he came into the kitchen. We both gulped it down quickly and took one more. I poured some more and took another shot. Knuckles grabbed the bottle and poured us some more. Before we knew it, we'd taken 7 shots. I was already starting to feel light headed. When I would drink, I got drunk really fast so I stopped.
"C'mon, one more" said Knuckles as he poured himself some more. I shook my head.
"I don't feel like getting hammered tonight" I told him as I got my white sneakers.
"Suit yourself" he said as he took his last shot.
I grabbed my keys and swung them around my finger. "Ready?" I called out to Knuckles.
He walked towards me.
"Let's roll" he said as he opened the door.
We left the house and walked to the club. We could hear loud music thumping and I could see some hot chicks going toward the club too. Heat was going to be packed tonight. I checked out the crowd and saw northsiders and southsiders, all bunched into one big group. I checked out some girls and smirked at how slutty they looked.
I continued to look around and saw who I was secretly looking for. My mouth couldn't help but fall open when I saw Amy in that gorgeous black dress. It showed off her incredible legs and her hair flowed down to her back. It hugged her curves, not to mention making her ass look great. I sudden rush of excitement flowed into my body and I cursed myself for it. I looked at her friends beside her and yeah, they looked hot, but the spotlight was on Amy tonight. I nudged Knuckles and he turned to look at me.
"Dude...look..." I said as I slowly raised my arm and pointed to them.
Knuckles mouth dropped open. "Ho-ly shit..." he said.
