Third person's pov
Amy fast bit down her teeth in her bottom lip. She mentallt slapped her self for her big mouth. Why had she even said that? Why had she told him she didn't want him to leave? It was all a mystery to her, all that had happened that day was a mystery to her. Nothing made sense anymore. Not the attack. Not being saved by none other then Shadow. Not this morning. Not the time in the mall. And especially not now! If she had a list over the most weirdest day's in her life, the past days would be a big first and second on that list.
It was so quiet in the room that you could hear the smallest of things hitting the floor. Both Amy and Shadow stayed silence, neither of them knowing what to say to each other. Well, what was there to say? The only thing questioned could be 'Why?' and Amy so hoped that Shadow would not ask just that question. It would be the only question that she didn't find an answer to... or more correct, she didn't find an answer to any of the questions that he could possible ask her. But if neither of them said something then they would be like that for a while and all Amy wanted was for the awkward silence to go away, it was kinda scarring her a little bit. And not to meantion his gaze as he looked at her over his shoulder. It was like he was looking right into her soul or something.
She looked down on the floor, prettending that she was interessted in the dark pink PJ's shirt lying there. Prettending that Shadow would just leave the room if she just stayed silent. O'how wrong she was...
"Why?" Shadow had turned around and crossed his arms over his chest. For him, she was obviously talking in the nightcap. "Why do you want me to stay?"
Amy bit her lip a little harder. It had to be that question, of all the question to ask, it had to be that question! She mumbled something unhearable and Shadow raised his eyebrow. "What?"
Amy swallowed as she turned her head towards him. "I said..." She said first really confident, but it fast dropped to zero as she looked at him and she gulped. "...I don't know..." It was a small whisper, almost to small for even Amy to hear but Shadow heard it.
He laughed, not high, but he laughed. He took a deep breathe as he stopped laugh and looked at her. "Don't say something you don't know the reason why to."
Amy looked down on the sheets of her bed. She felt stupid, really stupid. He probably thought that she was stupid at that point. Why wouldn't he, she already looked like a freak, so why not act like a freak to? She took a deep breathe and looked up. He wasn't there, not anymore at least. He probably left.. She thought and let out a small sigh of both relief and sadness. She didn't know why but she felt kinda lonely and disapointed that he had left. Or as she thought he had left.
A pair of strong hands then wrapped around her waist making her scream a small 'eep' - sound. She could hear someone chuckle behind her as her back was pressed against something behind her. She froze when she realized who it was that was behind her. She wanted to look over her shoulder but she was to surprised and nervous to even move the smallest of muscles.
"Nervous?" Shadow whispered next to her ear and smiled. She slowly, really slowly, as if she wasn't sure of her own answer, she nodded. "May I ask why?"
She was quiet. What could she answer? 'Cause i'm pressed agianst you with your hands around my waist?' E'no... Not at all! That would just be weird, still true, but weird.
She slowly, really slowly, even slower then before, she moved her head to look over her shoulder. She bit the inside of her cheeks as she did so. She was meet by a pair of blood red eyes as her cheeks, or cheek, blommed red. She wanted to look forward and just hide her blushing face, but those red eyes where nailing her at her position and it made her blush even more.
"You are beautiful when you blush." It took her by surprise as he said so. Her heart started to beat faster as they looked at each other in the eyes.
Amy didn't know what happened, she was like under a spell. She couldn't look away and a part of her didn't even want to. A part of her wanted to stay like that for ever, stay that way for how long was possible.
They where not far from each other's face's and like put under a spell they moved closer and closer to each others. Amy closed her eyes as she could feel his lips gently and slowly make contact with hers. She took a deep breath of both surprise and embaressment. Well, why wouldn't she be emberessed? She didn't want an answer on the question, because there was noon.
The longer the kiss lasted the more she felt how she started to, enjoy it. Not like 'hey, this is fun' - enjoying, more of like 'this isn't that bad' - enjoying. Amy closed her eyes as the kiss deepened itself. She didn't know (and i'll spill the beans, didn't care) if it was him deepening it or if it went by human reflex.
It wasn't really how Amy had thought her first kiss would ever be. Yes, you heard right! Her first kiss. She had always thought that her first kiss would happen in a romantic place. Maybe a park or it could be the beach. She would sit next to her prince charming and as the sun set they would kiss each other. Of course, i think you can guess who this prince charming would be. Yes, she had always thought that her first kiss would be with Sonic, but this was... well? A little differnet. Even though her dream first kiss didn't go as she had hoped, she didn't want it to stop at any cost.
So when Shadow broke apart from her she was kinda disapointed. Still unable to look away, Amy opened her mouth to say something. Anything, but it remaind quiet and she after some time of looking more like a freak then before, she closed her mouth. Though Shadow on the other hand wasn't as speachless as Amy was.
"I think I found the reason why." He said with an amused look in his eyes.
This time two side's of Amy's brain was having a ferce battle about, o'god she didn't know why, of who she liked most! Sonic or Shadow. Though the Sonic part was starting to win the battle giving Amy at least so much control that she could speak. "N-No you didn't." She said but fast regretted it.
"Then if that wasn't why..." He leaned close and whispered in her ear. "...what is?"
It sent a shiver down her spine as she tried to find a good reason to why that was better then... the kiss. It failed totally and she just sat there looking dumb in his arms. But she probably already looked dumb so it wouldn't, hopefuly, mather much. Hopefuly...
"How about that I find out the reason why." He said in her ear and smiled. He could feel how she tensed in his arms.
Amy's heart was beating faster then it had ever been beating in her entire life. She wasn't sure of why, but she didn't tense out of fear. That far she knew. She knew that she didn't feel fear at that moment, but she didn't know what it was she felt. If it was anger, hate, happiness or embaressment. She just wasn't sure of what it was, but sure she was that it wasn't fear.
She looked down on the sheet's and wrinkled her face. She took a deep breath and turned to look at him. "I'm tired..." She smiled a little. "I think i should rest. I can fix a place for you to sleep if you want to stay... " She fast stopped realising what she just had said. Had she just said he could stay? "I mean that if you want."
Shadow unwrapped his arms around her waist. "No need to." He got of the bed and started to walk to the door out to the hallway. "I have stuff i have to do." He opened the door and before Amy could even open her mouth to say something he was gone.
She took a deep breath and tried to get what had happened into her head. He had kissed her and then left? What kind of guy did that? She looked at the place he had disapeared. But fast shook her head. What was wrong with her? He had saved her once and, okay they had kissed, but it had been an accident! It wasn't like she liked him or anything. And by the way she had a boyfriend or almost boyfriend but still. Sonic would be crushed if he found out about it.
She got of the bed and walked over to the closet. She took out the black t-shirt that Rouge had given her and changed into it. The she walked to the bathroom and started to take of the bandages. Her eye and cheek wasn't pretty, that was for sure. They where all a mix of red and purple plus her pink fur.
She touched the side a little before she let out a deep sigh. She would probably be able to cover it with make up, mostly at least. She brushed her teeth and her hair before she went to bed.
Amy's pov (next day at the mall with Cream and Cheese)
"What about this one? It would fit good." I said and held out a sleeveless shirt in a orange with yellow bands around the collar and around the bottom. "They would fit to this pair of short's to." I picked out a pair of short's in the same colours and made in the same way.
"I don't know...?" Cream said and looked the cloath's over. "Maybe they are to revealing..."
"Cream, this are sport's cloaths. They are supposed to be this way." I said and pushed the cloath's into her arms. "Go and put them on. You will look fantastic in them!"
Cream looked a little off but then let it go and walked over to one of the fitting rooms. Cream had turned 12 not to long ago and by the years she had become more sporty. She had even been picked to be on her school's tennis team. That's the reason I and her are shopping, she wanted new sport's wear before the season's first game and I volunteered to help her shop sense her mother had to work.
Cream had long sense skipped the small ornage dress she used to wear and was now often seen in pant's or short's and ornage or yellow t-shirts or sleeveless shirts. She had also put her ears into a pony tail in the back of her head so they wouldn't be in the way when she was out sporting.
Tennis wasn't the only sport's Cream liked, she also like to take runs and play football or basketball sometimes. Not very often though but she used to sometimes.
"I don't know, Amy." Cream said through the door to the fitting room. "It seem so... revealing."
"Can I see?" I asked and she opened the door enough so i could go in and then closed it behind me again.
I looked at Cream and the orange and yellow sport's outfit. "It's perfect, Cream. You are looking perfect."
Cream looked the herself over in the mirror and fixed a little with the short's. "But the short's seem so..." She pushed them down a little. "...So short." She let out a sigh and turned to me. "Maybe I should just pick a pair of pant's instead."
"Cream, we can pick a bigger size if that make's you more comfortable." I said and smiled at her. "But if you want a pair of pant's you can take a pair of pant's. But i think it's going to get sweaty if you're going to wear pants."
Cream looked at herself again and nodded. "I think you're right. But i'll take a pair of pant's anyway, if it might get bad weather during a match." I smiled at her and also nodded.
"That's a good idea, Cream." I turned and walked out of the fitting room to let Cream change back to her normal cloaths.
As the day past by Cream and I went shopping shoe's, cloath's and a tennis racket to her game. I had more fun then i'd ever had and I almost forgot about what had taken place last night. Almost.
"So, i heard from Rouge that you got into some trouble with Shadow." She smiled as she took a bite out of her ice cream.
Damn, Rouge! "It isn't really something. I just thanked him for helping me last night and then he helped me home, sense Rouge just left me." I said the last with a small growl. "I am going to make her pay, if Shadow didn't get to her first that is."
Cream and I sat down on a bench in the mall. "So, did anything happen? Or was he the same old grumpy pants?" She raised an eyebrow.
"He was nice and all, but nothing really happened." I said and remembered the kiss. I could feel how i blushed and fast looked away from Cream so she wouldn't see anything.
"O'my god! It did, didn't it?" She said and almost dropped her ice cream on the ground. "What happened, tell me." I remained quiet. I was so embaressed, even if Cream was my best friend. "Come on Amy, i'm your best friend. You can tell me."
I looked around and then at Cream. "Fine, but not here. Anyone can hear us here." I said and stood up. Cream followed my example and we started to walk out of the mall. I still hadn't gotten my car back from the coops, but they had contacted me and told that it would be back soon along with my stuff.
It took almost half an hour for us to get home but it didn't mather so much for me. The longer it took, the longer it would take for me to tell Cream about... the kiss.
"So, tell!" Cream said as she sat down at the kitchen table. "What happened?"
I also took a seat and took a deep breath before i opened my mouth to speek. It was better to just get i overwith so i went directly to the point. "We kissed..."
Cream just sat there with open mouth. "Y-you did what?" She asked surprised.
"Like it sounds, we kissed." I said simple. Though it wasn't that simple to just say it but I tried to make it sounds as simple as possible.
"O. My. God!" Cream said before she continued. "So, did anything else happen?" She asked.
"If it did, i wouldn't tell you Cream. You are under thirteen and i don't think your mother would appreaciate it." She looked disapointed. "But no, nothing else happened I promise."
She looked a little disapointed but nodded. "Okay, but i wonder something Amy." I turned to her and with a confused look.
"What is it?"
"Well, if you and Shadow kissed, doesn't it mean he got your first kiss?" Cream's fact hit me like a brick wall. I felt like i was going to fall down to the ground with all does brick's over me! "Amy? You okay?"
I felt like crying but on the same time screaming, not of sadness or anger, but out of happiness. I was so tottaly confused! "Cream..." I said and leaned on her shoulder. "...What should i do?" Cream laughed, but it sounded kinda awkward. "What am i going to say to him if I see him again?" The a thought hit me harder then brick's could ever. "What about Sonic!"
I shot up from her shoulder like a bullet. "Well, you could always tell him that you kisse..."
"Never!" I said into her face with the worlds most creepies look ever. She crumbled a little and nodded a small 'okay'. "Sorry Cream... "
I sat back normal in my chair and let out a deep sigh. Cream did the same without the sigh. "It's okay, but why can't you tell? It isn't like you like Shadow or anything."
I just wanted to sink through the ground when i felt my cheeks heat up. "Of course not." I mumbled and looked away.
"Or do you?" Cream asked. "It looks like you are blushing." Damn her!
"Of course not!" I said and turned to her. "And by the way, Sonic would kill me!"
"Why is that?" She looked confused. "He don't seem like the killing person."
I let out a sigh, again. "They hate each other." I said and closed my eyes. "They are like, i don't know, they just don't get along! Okay?"
Cream nodded a little. "You do have a point in that." Cream said and looked down on the wooden table. "They do always fight with each other, in one way or another."
"You see! I can never tell Sonic i kissed Shadow!" I let my head fall on the table with a loud thud. "What am i supposed to do? I'm never going to be able to look him in the eyes agian." I wasn't sure of who i was talking about at the moment then, Shadow or Sonic.
Well, at least he won't know. It is not like Cream is like Rouge. "Maybe he will understand. He do likes you a bit, i'm sure of it." Cream rubbed my back a little. "You two have been getting along the last month's really well."
"I know!" I let tears fall, not out of sadness but out of disapointment on myself and my stupid feelings and beating heart. "How am i going to survive this?"
"Now now..." Cream said but was inturupted by a small "Chao Chao" coming from her bag down on the floor. I had totally forgotten that Cheese had taken a nap in her bag. "O'Hi Cheese."
The little chao flew over to the table and i looked at it with my sad eyes. "Chao Chao?" He asked.
"Amy's just a little troubled with her love life." Cream said and smiled to the Chao.
"Am no!" I said and sat up.
"Then what is?" Cream asked.
"Chao Chao?" I had a good feeling he asked 'Yeah, then what is?'.
"It is just... I just..." I layed back down on the table. "Okay, fine! I have trouble in my love life... But Cream?"
"Yes?"
"I don't like Shadow!" I screamed through the wood.
She giggled. She don't believe me... "If you say so, Amy. If you say so." I could literally feel her smile through the happy atmosfear in the room.
"Chao Chao..." Cheese said and held his little stomach.
"Are you hungry?" I asked and sat up like the mature women i was. The little chao nodded. "I could cook something, it is getting kinda late." I stood up from the chair and walked over to the fridge. "Cream, are you going to eat here or are you going to go home and eat?"
"I can ask mom if i can eat here, if it isn't to much of a problem." She may be more grown up then when i still still was a child but she sure don't change that much. It made me smile, that my friend doesn't change no mather how many years would pass.
"The you should call Vanilla right now, i don't want her to cook unnecessary food." I said as i picked out some minced meat and put it in the sink to defrost.
Cream nodded and picked out her iphone with an orange shel on it. "I'll do that." She said.
Shadow's pov (evening, dawn or something...)
I looked up at the ceiling. I just couldn't get it out of my head. What had happened the last night. It was still like glued into my mind. They pictures where impossible to get out of my mind.
I let out a sigh as i closed my eyes. The memory flashed before my eyes. That memory. That kiss. Her beautiful eyes and her perfect mouth.
I opened my eyes and sat up in the bed. I couldn't rest without thinking about her. What had happened was almost to good to be true, or even to horrible to get rid of. I couldn't decide what was worse, that i like it or that i regretted ever teasing her like i had. But that i had liked it, was something i thought would never happen.
A growle escaped my lips. "What's wrong with me?" I said to myself and ran my hand through my blank and red quills.
Amy was pretty, don't get me wrong here, but she wasn't really my stile. She was so innocent and pure, it was hard to see her together with someone like me. I wasn't really the pure kind of guy.
I closed my eyes and thought about her. She had changed really much over the six years that had past. She had longer hair and by some reason her eyes seemed to sparkle more then they did in her younger years. She had become really curvy and her body had mature much over the years. She wasn't the same girls she had been when she was twelve.
My gaze feel on the floor and i let my hands rest over my knees. i had to forget what had happened. It wasn't real. It had never happened and by the way, she was in love with that faker. She would never even lay a straight eye on me.
A part of my mind started to wonder what he had that i didn't but i fast pushed the thought away. Why would i care less of what she thought and who she like. If she wanted to wast her life running after that faker, then fine by me. I would forget that last night ever existed and that i only dropped her of at her house and then left. I didn't need to have more on my mind then i already had.
And to think about that, i remembered that i had work to do. Working for G.U.N wasn't an easy task, but if was better then just sitting at home and roll your tumbs. If i would be late again Rouge, my partner, would start a fight. But not to meantion that i had a good reason to be angry at her. She wouldn't get out of it that easy.
I stood up and walked over to the closet and took out a gray t-shirt. I put it and a leather jacket on before i walked outside. I already had a pear of jeans on sense earlier today.
Usually i would run but this time i took the bike. I didn't feel like running and i still needed to clear my thought's.
Sorry for a so late update and sorry if this chapter is shorter then the other chapter's. Even if it only are two. I hope this will be a good update for all of you and once again, forgive me for my late update.
