Chapter 3

It was around 11:30 later in the morning when Amy woke up. She rubbed her eyes and looked out through the balcony door window to see the sun shining brightly. As she was stretching her arms, she noticed her phone was lit. She saw she had a text message from Shadow from 20 minutes ago. The text read:

'Good morning Rose. I know your still sleeping, but I just wanted to let you know to be ready for out date at 7. I'll come by to pick you up. Make sure to dress your best. I can't wait to see you.'

Amy's smile was from ear to ear. She was excited to be going out with Shadow tonight to see what he had planned for them. She answered back:

'Good morning Shadow. I just woke up, but I'm super excited for tonight! And don't worry, I'll be ready at 7. Can't wait to see you either!'

She placed her phone inside her pocket of her shorts and walked downstairs expecting to see Knuckles and Rouge, but it was just the white bat watching a movie.

"Well good morning sleeping beauty. I was wondering when you were going to wake up." Rouge teased as she patted the seat next to her for Amy to sit. "Good morning to you too," she giggled while sitting down, "where's Knuckles?" she asked.

"He's at work right now. He should be back around 6 probably." Knuckles works as a trainer at MMA gym. Amy nodded and started to play around with her phone. "Sooo when is Shadow coming to get you for your date tonight?" Rouge asked with a playful smirk on her face. "He said to be ready at 7. And I have to dress nice." Amy replied with a hint of blush on her muzzle.

As she was playing with her phone, she decided to check her instagram. As she was scrolling, she saw a picture that Blaze uploaded from not to long ago. It was a selfie of her and Cream at Starbucks with a caption that says 'Starbucks to help with our hangover! #wepartytoohard' Amy showed the picture to Rouge and the two giggled. "Come on, let's get freshened up. We have a errand to run." the bat said with a devilish smirk.

Blaze and Cream seating inside of Starbucks chatting about last nights events. "Did you see Amy and Shadow dancing with each other?" asked cream as she was drinking her vanilla latte. Blaze took a sip of her tea before she answered, "Girl of course I did! The way they were moving looked like they couldn't their hands off each other. So did anything happen when Tails took you home?" the purple cat asked as she leaned in waiting for a answer." Cream just rolled her eyes, "Nope! I was way too tired and drunk to do anything even if I wanted to. What about you and Silver?"

Blaze laughed and said "Silver and I had a excellent time together last night. Even though getting out of bed this morning was a mission with my soar legs and all." The two continued gossiping and giggling when Cream noticed an all too familiar face walk through the door.

"Holy shit it's Sonic!" she whispered. Blaze whipped her head around and growled. "Ugh, now my head even hurts more." Sonic noticed the two and approached them and said, "Wow you too look terrible." with a smug look on his face. Cream angrily said "You shouldn't even be talking to us after all the mess you put Amy through." Sonic only chuckled and said "Hey it's not my fault she couldn't satisfy my needs. I just lost interest."

By this point, Blaze was fed up with his attitude. "No! It's YOUR fault because you don't know how to keep your dick in pants and you couldn't stop beating her!" she said with so much anger in her voice that her eye was twitching.

Sonic found it funny how Blaze was getting so angry, "Calm down kitty. Looks like Silver needs to learn how to put you in your place." he said with a smirk. Blaze went to pounce on him but Cream held her back.

Then Sally, Sonic's new lady friend, walked through the door. "Ugh honey what's taking so long for my coffee-" she looked at the two girls giving her man a dirty look. "Oh are these two of Amy's loser friends?" she asked while giggling and grabbing onto his arm.

"Oh and your the slut that ruined our best friends life and marriage?" Cream asked with a sarcastic happy tone. Sally gave Cream a glare and said "I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that." Blaze grabbed her purse and said "Come on Cream, lets leave before we catch something from these two." Sally gasped as Blaze and Cream made their way to the door. Before she walked out, Blaze turned around and gave Sonic and Sally the finger with a smile on her face. "That bitch." Sally grumbled as she and Sonic went to order coffee.

Shadow and Silver were at a bar in Miami Beach while on their lunch break. Shadow owns a business where people can rent high end cars like Lamborghini and Ferrari for different types of events. Silver works for him as the car salesman.

"So what do you have planned for tonight?" Silver asked as he took a sip of his beer. Shadow was finishing his burger before he answered. "I'm going to take her to this nice Italian restaurant on the beach. I'm sure she'll like having some one doing something like that for her rather than being beaten." he growled at the thought of Sonic beating his precious rose.

"Men who beat women are big pussies anyway." Silver said as he was going through his phone. "Speaking of the devil." Silver said he started at his phone screen. "What?" asked Shadow. "Blaze text me that her and Cream saw Sonic and his new girlfriend at Starbucks. He told her that I need to learn how to put Blaze in his place." he growled at the thought of Sonic talking to his girlfriend disrespectfully. Shadow got up and said "Don't waste your energy on that jackass. Let's go back to work so we can leave earlier." The two left a tip at the table and left in a matte lack Lamborghini, Shadow's other car.

Rouge and Amy have been all over town. First they went to the hair salon to get their hair cared for. Rouge's hair reached her shoulders after getting it trimmed and falt ironed. Amy's long hair was now curled and had her bangs pinned back. Then they went to the spa and both got their nails done. After that, they stopped by the mall to buy a dress for Amy's date. As they were leaving the mall, Rouge suddenly remembered they had one more stop to make.

"Hey Amy, did you bring the ring with you?" she asked. Amy pulled the ring out from her purse, "Yeah it's right here. Why?" Rouge grinned from ear to ear, "I know how bad you want to get rid of this ring, so I think we should pawn it." she said as she held the ring in her hand. Amy was taken back by the sudden suggestion. "You think I could get a lot of money for it?" she asked with curiosity in her voice. "Amy look at the size of this thing! This cost at least somewhere around twenty thousand dollars!"

'I do need the money AND I want that ring out of my life.' Amy thought. "You know what? Your right. I need to get rid of it anyway!" Rouge cheered as they both got in her car. She drove to the nearest pawn shop. They went in and Amy gave the man at the cashier the ring and told him it was her wedding ring. The man noticed how big the ring was. At the end of their time at the pawn shop, Amy earned herself thirty thousand dollars. Needless to say, she was happy.

It was now 7:00 pm. Amy was dressed and ready for her date to arrive. She was wearing a strapless light blue dress that reached her knees, she wore white high heels, and matching pearl necklace and bracelet. She wore light makeup with pink lipstick.

She walked down stairs when she heard a knock on the door, knowing that it was Shadow. When she answered the door, her mouth dropped and she blushed. Shadow was looking incredibly handsome. He wore nice fitting dress pants with dress shoes, a long sleeved white button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up, and he wore a black tie. He handed Amy a dozen red roses. "You look really beautiful tonight. But that's nothing new to me." he while smiling at her. She blushed as she took the roses. "Thank you, you look amazing." She placed the roses on the table next to the door and left with Shadow.

Rouge got the roses and watched with a smile as the two made their way to Shadow's car. "This is your car too?!" Amy exclaimed as they approached his matte black Lamborghini. Shadow chuckled, "Well when you have a successful business, why not?" he said while he opened the door for her to get in. The doors were butterfly doors. Amy was clearly excited to ride in her favorite car with Shadow. They both got into the car and took off to the restaurant. Once they made it there, they walked inside hand in hand, which made Amy blush.

The reached the host table who asked if they had reservations. "I have a reservation under Shadow the Hedgehog." The man looked through his computer then saw his name. He led the couple to a nice table in the middle of the room. The had a "reserved" tag in it with a bottle of wine inside a bucket of ice.

Shadow pulled Amy's chair out and she sat down. As they were both seated, they started couldn't help but stare at each other with huge smiles planted on their face. "Shadow, thank you so much for taking out tonight." said Amy as she looked deep into his eyes. "It's my pleasure Amy, I would do anything to make you happy." he replied while grabbing onto both of her hands and kissed them tenderly.

Soon enough they both received their dinner from the waiter and was served their wine. When the waiter left, Shadow held Amy's hand. "Amy, I know this is our first official date, but you make me feel so alive. When you smile my heart skips a beat. I want you to know that I'll do more best to treat you much better than Sonic or any other man can. Will you be my girlfriend?" He asked nervously while looking at her beautiful face. Amy blushed and smile the biggest smile she could possible do. "Yes! Of course I'll be your girlfriend!" she said with much excitement. Shadow chuckled and placed his hand on her cheek. They both leaned in, and shared a loving kiss. It was short, but sweet.

The two continued to have a perfect date, but were unaware that they were being watched from afar by no other than Sonic who was there with Sally. He didn't like the fact that Amy was here with Shadow, he didn't want her with anybody to be exact.

He didn't know why, but Sonic was jealous at the two. He didn't think Amy deserved happiness because according to him, she doesn't know how to satisfy a mans needs. For the rest of the night, he saw the two kiss and laugh with each other before they left in Shadows car.

"I really hate that bitch." said Sally. "She's going try and take your money away from you once this divorce is settled." she crossed her arms angrily.

Sonic rubbed his chin then grabbed Sally's hands. "Not on my watch." he told her with a evil grin. He was determined to keep what was his. By any means necessary.
