Chapter 3
Amy, Shadow and Sonic sat on the sofa staring at each other. But when Sonic looked at Amy, she would look back then turn away. "This is stupid…when will that little brat get here!" Shadow yelled, punching his fists into the cushion behind him. Amy shrugged. "Better be soon…I can't take it much longer" she said sadly. Sonic rubbed his tummy after it growled for food. Amy turned to Sonic and pointed to the kitchen. "Hey hungry…there's food in there, help ya self to it" she giggled. Sonic mumbled and stood up. "I'm Sonic the hedgehog…not hungry" he snapped, walking away from the sofa. Shadow smirked at his babyish behaviour and laid back in his seat. Amy shook her head and turned to Shadow.
"Do you think I'm being too hard on him?" Amy asked shyly placing a hand on her cheek. Shadow shook his head fierce fully. "oh no! carry on…I like his pain" he chuckled. Amy grinned at him then looked back at Sonic who was stuffing all the food in his mouth. Sonic grabbed the cookies by the kettle and shoved them in his mouth. "These are great! Hey Ames?" he shouted, spitting the leftovers out from his mouth. "Yeah?" Amy called back. "Do ya have any more cookies?" Sonic asked, grabbing a doughnut and dropping it in his mouth. Amy walked into the room and saw Sonic on the counter sitting like a 5 year old, dangling his legs over the side.
"Sonic! Get down!" the female shouted pointing at the ground.
Sonic frowned at her and crossed his arms tightly. "No!" he replied, sticking his tongue out playfully. "Sonic, stop acting like a baby and get down off my counter" she shouted stomping her right foot.
Sonic sighed and dropped to the floor. "There! Happy?" he mocked, giving her a slight grin. Amy screamed as loud as she could then pounced on the blue hedgehog. She pressed him against the floor and laughed. "I cant believe your getting beat up by a girl" she giggled.
Sonic blushed deep red as he looked at the position they were in.
"What? Are you blushing?" Amy asked, touching his red cheeks. "Maybe…and maybe not" Sonic answered. Amy laid her head on his chest…making him surprised? "Uh Amy?" he questioned looking down at her. All he got in reply was a "mmm?".
"Do you still love me?" he wondered. Amy rose from his chest and glared at him. "I-uh…well um…no" she said, struggling to get her words right.
"Why? Is it because I didn't come to your birthday party?" Sonic asked again. Amy stood up, rolled her eyes.
"And the beach party" she added. Sonic laughed nervously. "Yeah" was all he could say till Amy gulped…which got his attention straight away.
"Sonic…you can be a dam right loser sometimes and well…I can't believe I used to love you" she said softly, rubbing her arm. Sonic frowned and looked to the ground. "Why don't you love me then?" he asked again.
Amy, found this quite embarrassing. She didn't want to tell him that apparently her hormones were changing…well that's what Rouge said anyway, but she just could say anything, instead she stood there glaring at him.
"uh…it's a long story" she said hopelessly. Sonic crossed his arms. "I'm listening, carry on" he ordered.
"I- well uh…my birthday party, I think…uh I blew the candles out and the next day I didn't love you anymore, then I rang Rouge and she told me that my hor-hormones were uh…um changing" she explained.
Suddenly a baby's cry was heard making Amy sigh with relief.
She turned around and walked away quickly and ran upstairs. Shadow watched her run up the stairs and smirked as he entered the kitchen where Sonic was. "I see that she don't love ya anymore…faker" he laughed, while playing with his bracelets on his right wrist.
"Whatever Shadow…wait! You were listening?" Sonic asked giving him a death glare which meant 'run now or ya dead!'. Without any hassle Shadow was gone and ran out the kitchen as fast as his legs could take him.
Floating island
"Right bat-girl, you have annoyed me to the limit!" Knuckles shouted angrily. "Really? You have a limit?" the bat asked him, placing a smile on her lips.
Rouge was (yet again) at the floating island annoying the guardian of the master emerald. All he wanted was to be left alone with HIS 'rock' on HIS island!
"ROUGE! GET OF MY ISLAND NOW!" he spat. She giggled at him and his actions. "oh…I get it- you have mood swings" she laughed. Knuckles growled at her. "Rouge! Go away!" he demanded. Rouge shook her head. "I don't wanna…I'm staying with you, like it? Or not!" she screamed proudly. Knuckles grabbed Rouge and picked her up like a groom carrying his wife on their wedding day. "Aw change of heart?" Rouge asked calmly. Knuckles grinned and walked further away from the master emerald and closer to the edge of the island. He smiled evilly and was about to throw her off but she was fast asleep. Her eyes were closed, and she was cuddling up to his chest. He did like it…but then he panicked.
"What do I do?" he asked himself. He couldn't just throw her off the island while she was asleep, she would properly die! Then again he couldn't keep her on the island either because he couldn't keep an eye on her and the master emerald.
"Great!" he mumbled. He walked back to the 'rock' with the bat still in his arms. Once he got there, he laid her down next to where he sat.
He growled and laid down beside her, glancing at the night horizon.
It was all different colours like, red, orange, blue, pink and purple.
"I love you knuckles" said a calmly sleepy voice. Knuckles looked down at Rouge to see her cuddling him like as if he was her teddy bear.
"If you would only stop bugging me then-" he stopped himself forcefully and stared at her. He bent down to her face and pressed his lips against hers deeply. She opened her eyes to meet his. His purple eyes shone down at her connecting with her eyes. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer to her body. Knuckles squeezed her leg making Rouge pouch on him. He laughed then kissed her neck making Rouge moan and scream. "I love you too Rouge" he said happily.
