Chapter 6: A New Friend
Disclaimer: I don't own Sonic or Amy, SEGA does. However I do own Rosy and Mikey. I also want to remind you that right now it's three years into the future from chapters 1&2 so yeah
Mikey's POV
I wonder if she's actually going to come. I thought to myself as I sat in the restaurant What if she does come, what will I say? I can't exactly tell her why I did it. I don't even know myself! She deserves some kind of explanation though. Urgh why is everything with this girl so complicated!
I know why!
Great it's the all knowing little kid inside my head
You know it!
What do you want this time?
Same old, same old really... to annoy you
My aren't you a wonderful person
Muahahaha! I rolled my eyes at the voice in my head and caught sight of something purple. It was of course Rosy, talking to the maitre d'. She started to look around nervously when she spotted me. Her eyes flashed with recognition and worry before turning back to the host and mumbling a few last words. She slowly walked over to the table, and that's when i got a good look at what she was wearing. It was a white low-cut v-neck sleeveless t-shirt with a lime green coffee cup on a teal plate. In the background was almost like a rough drawn sketch out a window into a city with tall buildings, bustling streets and vendors. Where the v-neck should have shown cleavage she had a turquoise cami that complimented the shirt while bringing out eyes. Oddly enough she was wearing the jeans she wears for work, but I had no complaints. I was actually glad that I got to see her wearing them so often. Wait did I really just say that?
Yes. Yes you did.
Thank you captain obvious
Its captain conscious to you, and now ill you admit that you like her?
No, and will you stop saying that!
But you're checking her out!
Yeah so? I'm a guy. That's what we do
But you see her everyday. Why are you checking her out now?
I do that everyd- you know I really hate you sometimes
I know, but why do you hate me I this case?
You know why
I want to hear it
You were right
You need to be more specific
*sigh* Your not going to stop until I say it aren't you
Yuppers
Ok fine. I like Rosy. There. Are you happy now?
Quite.
I looked up at the purple hedgehog and gave the tiniest smile. Her blue eyes were looking at the floor as she took her seat. She scooched her chair in, rested her elbows on the table and finally looked at me. There wasn't the hate in her eyes that I saw last night, or the anger she gave me this morning; now her eyes held confusion, curiosity and just a hint of hurt. We stared at each other for a while longer, the silence going from awkward to tense, before she finally spoke.
"I'm here. Start talking." Her words were clipped at the end, showing her growing frustration. I realized that i never actually figured out what I was going to say, so I spoke just two words.
"I'm sorry." She stared at me obviously expecting more.
"I'm sorry? That's all you have to say? Nothing more like why you're such a jackass to me? Nothing about how much you wanted me to suffer? Nothing about why you hate me-"
"I don't hate you..." I said in a hushed voice. She paused in her rant and eyed me, her mouth agape. "I never have. I'm antisocial to everyone who talks to me, yet you still bother trying, and I never thought you'd be this hurt." my voice trailing off at the end.
"Oh so clearly getting stood up by three different guys in a row just makes me feel all happy and special on the inside!" her voice dripping with venomous sarcasm "Well try to get this through your thick skull. I am a girl. I have feelings. When those guys didn't show up that hurt, more than you can imagine, and it didn't help when it kept on happening. I thought there was something wrong with me, I thought that nobody would ever like me, I" her voice cracked "I just wanted it to end... Than one guy, one out of the dozens of guys I know, decided to man up and come talk to me. When I found out it was you I was...I was...Urgh there's no word to describe what I was feeling! And now here we are. A couple of hours after I woke up to see that I had fallen asleep on your shoulder, and all you can say is sorry."
"Look Rosy, I can't even begin to explain why I did what I did. To be honest I have no freaking clue! You baffle me! Always so happy and cheerful, even when your eyes say other wise," I looked deep into her now tearful eyes "And what puzzles me even more is that no matter how cold I am to you, Stacy, the Chief, those two sketchy fangirls you still manage to give me a smile. Even now when you should be plotting to kill me." She started to feel her lips almost as if she hadn't even known she was smiling. We stare at each other a while longer, her eyes full of wonder while I was hoping my eyes spoke of sincerity, before she speaks.
"Beautiful speech. I think that's the most ice ever heard you say." she tried keeping her face emotionless but mischief tinted her features. "I don't know why but...I forgive you. This doesn't mean that I'm staying for lunch though. I truly only came to get some answers." The butterflies in my stomach settled and I breathed an inward sigh of relief.
"That's good. To be honest I really didn't bring any money to pay." She gives me a halfhearted glare
"Oh so the girl has to pay for a date? No wonder why you don't have a girlfriend!" she sticks her tongue out at me.
"Oh real mature pinky." I tease as we both stand up and leave
"Pinky? Really? I know that saying is blind as a bat, but clearly I am purple. P-U-R-P-L-E!" She says, stopping in the middle of the hotel lobby to face me. She pokes my chest "You mister need to learn how to treat a lady!"
"Well you, lady, need to grow a few more inches to be more of a threat" She puffs out her cheeks in anger and stands on her tippy toes, still only coming up to about my chin.
"Why you! Grrrrr" I smile my goofiest smile at her indifference when I do the unthinkable. I lent down and kissed her. On the lips. In front of half the hotel. The kiss lasted no more than a second before she pulled away in shock. She turned her turquoise eyes up to me before slapping me across my cheek. "What the hell?" She screeches at me before turning around and running out the front door, her hands catching the few glittering tears before they fall to the ground. I stared after her dumbfounded. What did I just do?
Sonic's POV
The blue hedgehog was walking (not running gasp) through the park near the center of town before going to see Amy. I can't believe it's been three years since coming home from Chris's world The hero and his friends have been living in peace (with the occasionally Eggman disturbance) ever since, and life was getting pretty dull. Oh well. At least I still have Amy to keep me on my toes. Despite what everyone thought the two hedgehogs were not dating. Sonic just wasn't the type of guy to have a girlfriend...not yet anyways. He truly cared for Amy, she knows it too, but he didn't want a relationship to complicate his current laid-back lifestyle. He let Amy declare herself as his girlfriend. It made her happy, plus they did hang out more often. In fact, he was on his way to meet her right now. He continued to walk down the dirt path when his sensitive ears picked up an unusual sound. It was a sniffling sound, followed by muffled sobs. Sonic, being the person he is, hates crying so he went to investigate. Sure enough sitting on one of the wooden benches was a purple hedgehog, around his age, with her face in her hands. "Hey," he greets softly as he takes the empty seat next to her. "What's wrong?" She looks up at him with her teary turquoise eyes and sniffles. She than shakes her head, her pony-tailed quills swooshing from the action, and looks back down. "You can tell me. I'm not going to hurt you; in fact I want to help. My name is Sonic the Hedgehog!" He states proudly. The girl looks up at him with a blank stare, which utterly confuses the hero. "You know, Sonic the Hedgehog, world known hero, kicker of Eggman's butt, fastest thing alive, ring any bells?" She shakes her head but gives him a curious stare. "No well than you must be from under a rock. Well let me say welcome to the world of natural light," she giggles and he takes that as a sign to continue "Do you see that big, bright, glowing thing in the sky? That's the sun. And these things surrounding us, the brown cylinders with the green hats, are trees." She giggles again and gives him a small smile. "See I'm not such a bad guy. Can you tell me your name?"
"Well for starters I appreciate that your trying to help and everything, but I'm not five. I may act like it at times but I wish to be spoken to normally." He stares at her, shocked. "Secondly hi my name is Rosy Rose the Hedgehog. I come from a small city somewhere. I'm vacationing here in this little town, which by the way I have no clue where it is, with the guy who's been making me cry for the past two days."
"Oh wow. That really sucks doesn't it? If he's such a jerk than why are you on vacation with him?"
"Well the place I work for gave us an ordered vacation, not knowing that we just had a huge fight, and we ended up here."
"Ooh that's tough. What did he do to make you so mad?" She looks away from his kind gaze and stares into the trees.
"It's complicated. Let's just say that we fixed the first problem and now there's an even bigger, more confusing one to deal with."
"Oh. Well I'm sorry Rosy. Do you want to come with me to a friend's house? She's a great chef and very kind."
"That would be nice. Thanks." They stand up and continue walking on the path, towards the outskirts of the town. After a while they stopped in front of a pink house with a green trim, and knocked on the door.
"Amy it's me! Let me in please!" Sonic calls out. Soon following they hear a light pitter patter head towards the door right before it sprang open.
"Oh Sonic there you are! I was starting to think you'd never show up-" she glances at Rosy and her features turn dark. "Who is she? Where did she come from?" She turns from a nervous Sonic to the bewildered girl "Are you trying to steal my Sonic from me? Well?" The pink hedgehog flicks her wrist and out of nowhere a red and yellow hammer appears.
"Whoa Amy settle down it's not what it looks li-"
"It's ok. I can handle myself." He turns and stares at the mysterious girl. She must be crazy thinking she can take on Amy by herself. Especially when Amy's this mad. Oh why didn't I think this through? I should've known that Amy would freak out! He looks back at the showdown between the hedgehogs and realizes that the purple one was completely calm. Amy swings her hammer at just the same moment Rosy dodges. The hammer hits the stone path and gets grabbed by a purple hand. "Amy I presume? I would really appreciate it if you would stop swinging your hammer at me. I get enough of this at work from people I'm supposed to be fighting." The pink girl growls at the purple "I can honestly tell you that I don't want another guy to deal with right now, plus Sonic doesn't really seem my type." Amy's gaze turns from anger to suspicion "Now your boyfriend here said that you can cook up a great meal and on top of that I am in desperate need of a shower. Can you help?" The pink hedgehog gives Sonic a questioning look and he shrugs. She returns her gaze to the purple girl and nods. She turns back into her house, her magic hammer disappearing, and the other two follow lost in their own thoughts.
