"Don't cry." He smiled, and leaned in, putting his lips next to her ear. His warm breath passed over it again, making it flick. "I love you." It was just a whisper, but she'd heard it plainly. New tears found their way to her cheeks, this time accompanied by the largest smile she could muster. A strange combination of sobbing and laughter filled the room. She was so full of joy she couldn't even bring herself to hug him.
"Hungry?"
She nodded, sniffling. Her cheeks hurt, but the huge grin plastered on her face wouldn't go away. Sonic left and returned after a few minutes with a tray of food. Amy reached for it eagerly. Even the incredible happiness she felt couldn't overpower the constant hunger of three rapidly growing babies.
Sonic shook his head. He offered his hand and she took it. He pulled her up to her feet and she groaned softly as the pressure of her weight pushed through her legs. He handed her a white cloth. "You're spending the day in bed, Ames." He turned his back.
She changed behind him, her soft grunts as she efforted to move herself enough to undress then slip herself into the nightgown worrying him slightly. He turned again and helped her back into bed. Amy squirmed slightly as air was forced out of her chest by the weight of her belly when she lay back. Then came the food.
"Ooh, I'm starving." She reached for it again, but he pushed her arms down, and brought forth a spoonful of cold cereal. She giggled and opened her mouth, and he pushed it in. It was followed by a bite of toast, smothered in butter.
Sonic was a terrible cook. The cereal was soggy and the toast was somehow burnt, yet cold, and there was far too much butter on it. Amy had never tasted anything so wonderful. She enjoyed being fed very much, but it was too slow. Her stomach growled loudly, and she picked up a piece of toast, feeding herself between offered bites from Sonic.
When all of the food he'd brought had found it's way into Amy's stomach, Sonic patted her belly and kissed her cheek. "More?"
She was about to nod when she saw his nose. She winced and reached out to touch it. "I hit you."
He grasped her hand. "Yeah. I deserved it." A smirk. "You got a killer left hook, ya know that?"
Her happy giggling filled the room. "I guess my boxercise classes paid off, then."
Sonic just laughed and stood up. "I'll get you some more to eat." He looked at the dirty dishes from his last attempt at making a simple breakfast. "Something already made." He was rewarded with her soft giggling.
Return, he did, with a nice big slice of chocolate cake. "I found it in the fridge."
Amy scolded him playfully. "Sonic, that has like a million calories!" Still, she couldn't help but lick her lips. That cake looked sooooo good.
Sonic shrugged. "So? You need it. Gotta feed the kids." He chuckled. "An' I feel like spoilin' ya a little bit, after what happened last night."
He was suddenly on the bed next to her, holding up the cake and cutting a small chunk off with a fork. He held it up and she opened her mouth. A long moan escaped her as the cake touched her tongue. He laughed. "I take it you like it?" Her response was to open her mouth again. He obliged her by slipping another big bite in.
Amy moaned in pleasure with each bite of cake that entered her mouth. Sonic laughed at her. "Sheesh, Ames. Ya sound like we're in bed for a totally different reason."
She gasped lightly and playfully slapped his arm. "Sonic! You're terrible!" She giggled and opened her mouth again. Another bite of cake landed on her tongue. This continued for several minutes, until Amy opened her mouth, but nothing entered.
Sonic held up the empty plate. "That's all Amy. No more." He winked. "Ya sure can be a pig when ya want to."
A gentle backhand to the chest was the only reply he got.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Amy Rose rubbed her belly and groaned softly, stifling a small belch. She was seated on the sofa, trying to be as lazy as possible, as per Sonic's request. She'd insisted she couldn't stay in bed all day, so a compromise was made. She could move to the living room and watch television, but she wasn't allowed off the couch unless she needed to use the bathroom. The blue hedgehog had used his speed to keep Amy nibbling all morning, and now, as lunch rolled around, she was positively stuffed. She wondered if anyone could be pampered until it hurt. She was sure she'd found the way. Amy's stomach was so packed she could feel it trying to move inside her, struggling to digest the huge amount of food it had been given. The fact that all her guts had been smushed up into her ribcage didn't help. Her full stomach pressed lightly on her remaining lung, leaving her even shorter on breath than usual.
Sonic returned from a brief trip to a fast food place. He held up a bag that bulged with food. "I hope you're hungry, Ames."
She wasn't. She didn't know how she was keeping herself from throwing up at the mere thought of food. "Sonic! Take it easy with the food, ok?" She rubbed the upper portion of her distended belly. "I'd like to still have at least a little bit of a figure when this is all over!" She smiled at him, touched by his kindness all the same.
He ruffled her quills playfully. She shrieked and petted them back down, but couldn't contain her laughter. Sonic held up the bag again. "Come on, Amy. You need ta eat." The smell hit her, and despite the overfilled state of her stomach, she licked her lips. "Well...maybe just a little."
'A little' somehow transformed into the whole bag, and even a return trip for desert. Fast food normally wasn't something Amy touched at all. It was delightfully greasy and terribly fattening, but her willpower just melted away when it was sonic's face on the other side of offerings of food. She lifted a hand that she swore was made of lead and pushed down lightly on her swollen womb, struggling to make some extra room and relieve her of the sharp ache in her stomach. "Guh. Mmph, oh gods. I'm so...so full." A hiccup followed, and she fought not to throw up. Sonic leaned over and rubbed her belly gently.
"Ok, Amy. I'll try not ta feed ya so much." He kissed her cheek, eliciting a pleased "Mmm." from her. He lingered, taking in her scent. "You smell good. Kinda like an all ya can eat buffet in a flower garden."
Her shoulders shook for a moment, and she screwed her face up. "S-Sonic." Her voice was very strained. "If you, umph, don't want me to throw up on you, guh, stop trying t-HIC!-to make me laugh." The corners of her mouth twitched upwards. She was desperately fighting the urge to laugh. It passed after a few moments, and she tried to relax. It was difficult to rest with such an uncomfortable pressure in her stomach. And the constant discomfort of the pressure her distended belly put on various parts of her body wasn't helping. She groaned.
Amy spent the next two hours struggling to get comfortable. It was hard enough to do being so heavily pregnant, but now with a stomach that was on the verge of popping, it was plain impossible. She huffed in frustration, groaning softly as she once again shifted her body slightly. "Uh!" She pouted cutely. "Sonic!" He snorted, flailing his arms a little. He'd fallen asleep.
"Huh, wuh?" He rubbed his eyes. "Hey Ames. Need somthin'?"
She nodded. "Ghmmph, I can't get up, and I have to go to the bathroom really bad."
He was on his feet before she even finished the sentence, helping her up. He walked with her, one hand around her shoulders, the other grasping her hand, with her arm crossed over her tummy. "Now, be careful, Sonic. I--Yeowch!" He'd bumped her, sending a very painful twinge through her spine. Her knees had almost buckled under her. "Uhmf. Gods, that really hurt!" The weight of her belly pulled on her spine, drawing the bones out of alignment and crushing the soft cartilage between them in the rear, and leaving her spinal cord exposed in places in front. The result was a constant and very aggrivating lower back pain which she complained about often.
Sonic cringed a little bit. "Sorry, Ames. I didn't mean to." He laid a hand on her tummy and carefully led her some more. By the time they reached her bathroom door, she was panting heavily. Sonic offered her inhaler, but Amy shook her head.
"I'm, nnf, fine." She opened the door and stepped inside. "Don't go away. I'll probably need your help to get up." She blushed softly and closed the door.
Sonic shook his head after she was out of sight. He HAD to get Tails to make her some handrails so she could get up by herself.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Today was Amy's birthday. It was also only a few weeks before she was due to give birth. She and Sonic had already had two labour scares in which Amy had seemingly gone into contractions, and Sonic had rushed her to the hospital only to find out that no, it wasn't quite time yet. Amy had been very disappointed on both occasions. Not only did she very much want to bring her children into the world and care for them, she had just plain had her fill of being pregnant. Amy's belly had swelled so large it filled her entire lap and was wider than any other part of her, save her head, and that was by only a small margin. Her back felt like it was on the verge of snapping in two, no matter how she walked, so she mostly stayed put either on her couch or in bed. In addition, supporting three rapidly growing babies as well as herself left her body drained, and she was exhausted all the time. She slept at odd times and for long hours, and if she wasn't sleeping, she was eating. Sonic had done a good job of keeping her very well fed. She'd put on alot of weight that had nothing to do with her swelling belly. Amy's appetite seemed impossibly large for such a small girl. Somehow, despite having almost no room left inside her body, she could eat and eat and eat and keep on eating until she was too tired to lift food into her mouth. Then sonic would feed her until she complained about her escalating weight or fell asleep.
Walking was almost impossible. Her belly was so heavy she had to hold it up with both hands or endure extreme discomfort, and her back hurt so bad when she stood she had to put both hands on it to alleviate the pressure. Of course, she couldn't do both at once. Amy's breasts had become very large as well as the end of her term neared. At first they had just increased in mass, forcing her to buy a larger bra. Then suddenly they began to swell with milk, preparing for the arrival of her babies. Now they were so full she couldn't wear a bra at all due to the soreness. She needed to use the toilet an uncountable number of times during an average day. Luckilly, Tails had come through with handrails alongside the toilet. He'd been fascinated by Amy's pregnancy that day. The constant barrage of questions was annoying, and when the fox had asked to perform tests on her, She ran him out of the apartment. Sonic had never known she could throw her hammer with such deadly accuracy. Tails had limped for a week after that.
Sonic had been such a good sport the whole time. He'd been infinitely helpful, and his boundless energy and speed proved invaluable. He'd been a perfect gentleman when Amy had become too large to bathe herself and was forced to accept his help. She'd insisted on wearing her skimpiest bathing suit at first to keep herself as decent as possible during bathing, but when her chest became too sore for that, she'd given up and trusted Sonic to behave himself. He did, but he'd blush furiously every night when bathtime came around, and she teased him mercilessly about it.
Sonic had a surprise party planned for Amy today. There were, however, problems with this. The number one issue was that Amy could hardly move on her own, much less get out of her apartment, so having the party at her place was out. It was supposed to be a surprise, after all. Amy wasn't dumb enough to not ask questions if she saw her friends putting up party decorations. Come to think of it, Amy wasn't dumb in the slightest. She was constantly outsmarting Sonic.
THe other problem was that they couldn't have the party anywhere BUT Amy's apartment either, for the same reason: Amy couldn't really leave. She was too big to move farther than the next room. This left Sonic in quite a quandry. He had no choice but to host the surprise party at Amy's place. But how? That was the sixty-four thousand mobium question.
He smacked himself in the forehead, trying to think. "HOW the heck am I gonna pull this off?" He was whispering, even though Amy was in a different room. She had great ears. He couldn't even sneak around without her knowing. Somehow, she could move as quietly as a cat, despite her awkward condition.
"Sonic?" Amy called from the next room. He rushed in. She was rooted to the sofa, just finishing up a sandwich.
"Yeah, toots?" A finger was in his ear, twisting casually. She giggled. His manners were horrible. It annoyed her, but at the same time, made her heart melt.
She held up her arms, wiggling her fingers childishly. "Time for my bath." She giggled heartily and winked.
Sonic's face turned bright red. "Um, right, heh." They'd probably been through this a hundred times, but he still couldn't stop blushing every time. She loved it. It was so fun to tease him. Ah, sweet revenge. He helped her up. Her back immediately went to work making her life miserable.
"Ooooooh, gods." She put a hand there, tears welling up in her eyes. Amy swore she could hear her spine cracking just a tiny bit more every second. It was going to snap any moment now. She just knew it. Sonic gently took her by the shoulders and guided her to the bathroom. He ran some water in the tub while she undressed behind him. Suddenly he was hit with inspiration. He had to clamp his hands over his mouth to keep from shouting out his idea. He feigned a minor coughing fit.
Amy looked at him with concern. "You ok, Sonic?" He turned to answer and made a small 'eep!' before clamping his hands over his eyes. Amy just giggled. Her belly was so big it hid everything indecent below her chest. The only way Sonic could have seen that is if his eyes were level with her navel or lower. She waddled up to him, groaning under the strain. "Mmph. What's the mater, Sonic?" She tickled his ear. "Are you too INNOCENT to see a pretty girl naked? Hmm?" She supposed she should have been blushing too. She had the first few times she had to bathe in front of him. But she was used to it now, and there wasn't anything she could do about it anyway. Technically, they were a couple, so why was he being so silly? Most of the day he'd be cracking dirty jokes. She pulled one of his arms down. "Hey, you. I'm waiting."
Sonic nodded, trying to pull himself together. He took her hand and offered a safety measure while she carefully, oh-so slowly, not to mention uncomfortably, stepped into the tub and eased herself down. Air whooshed out of her as her belly shifted when she leaned back. "Hhrrg." Sonic came down with her and knelt on the floor, then took off his gloves. He lathered up his hands with shampoo and massaged Amy's pink quills. She closed her eyes and let out a pleased "Mmmmmm-hmm-hmm-hmm." She was laughing at him. He could tell by the grin on her face.
He poured water over her head and rubbed more shampoo into her quills. "I can get ya somethin' ta eat if ya want, Ames." She nodded.
"I am a little hungry." He didn't normally offer food in the bath. But he'd been even more vigilant than usual in keeping her well-fed and full.
Sonic got up and left, leaving Amy by herself. She hummed happily and squirted some body wash into her hands, rubbing it over her enormously distended belly. Her hand lighted on the faint, thin scar from her surgery to remove her lung, then the much uglier one from where that knife had pierced her. She shook the rapidly forming tears from her eyes. That was in the past. Time to forget it now and move on. But she knew she could never forget. She still had nightmares about it sometimes. Amy forced a smile and carefully rubbed soap over her sore, milk-filled breasts. A small amount of the white liquid leaked from one of them as she squeezed it the wrong way, and she blushed furiously, wiping it away. The door opened, and Sonic came back with a small bowl of ice cream.
He knelt down again. "Say 'aah.'"
Amy opened her mouth wide. "Aaaaaahhh..." He pushed the spoon in, then carefully gave her the bowl. He scrubbed her body while she ate. The weight she'd put on made her soft all over. Sonic's fingers sunk into her flesh slightly. He had to admit, it was sort of nice. Her soap smelled good too.
The blue hedgehog took the bowl from her. "Rinse time." She was coverd in suds, mostly hiding her from view. He blushed hard, then poured warm water over her head, washing away all the soap. He turned to pick the bowl back up, and when he turned back she was there with a big foamy glob of suds, which she smeared over his face.
Sonic recoiled and rubbed his face with one hand. Amy grabbed the bowl from him to save the precious ice cream. "Hehehee!" She set the bowl on her belly and resumed eating. He laughed after wiping his face.
"Sneaky." He leaned down over her and planted a kiss on her lips. She almost choked on her ice cream, then sighed dreamily and sunk down a bit into the water. "Why don'cha just relax, Ames? Yeah? Just take a break and rest for a while? I bet that nice hot water feels good." He tickled her nose. "Since it's your birthday, and I couldn't plan anything special cuz ya can't really get out, I figured I'd just spoil ya all day. Whaddaya say?"
She closed her eyes and nodded. "Mmmmmmmmmm...okay." He took her bowl.
"I'll get ya some more ice cream. How's about some hot fudge and strawberries on top too?"
Amy nodded and sighed happily. She was about to point out he'd been spoiling her quite rotten for the last four months, but why ruin a good thing? He dashed out.
The pink girl moaned softly and stretched her aching muscles. The water felt soooo GOOD. It supported her a little bit and took some of the strain off her body, as well as soaking the heat into her bones and soothing them quite nicely. She put a few fingers in her mouth, almost suckling on them to occupy her hungry mouth until Sonic got back. "Hmmmm-mmmmm, ooooh. Mmmmmm, he's almost too good to me. I'll have to reward him after I give birth. Oh!" She blushed hotly. "Such thoughts! Shame on you, girl!" A sweet giggle escaped her.
Sonic came back with the promised ice cream, smothered in hot fudge and topped with waaaay too many strawberries. She licked her lips, and he placed a hand towel over her breasts. He probably didn't want her to spill any on herself since she just washed. He still hadn't given her the ice cream. "Hey Ames, what would ya say if I told ya I got a little birthday surprise for ya?"
Amy beamed and reached out. "Mmmm, can't it wait until after I eat?"
He nodded, handing her the bowl. "Sure, babe." Poking from the ice cream was a slice of cherry cake with pink icing. There was a little candy '18' on the frosting, because it was Amy's 18th birthday.
"Ooh, how sweet, Sonic!" She cooed. "I--ah!" She cringed as Sonic stuck two fingers in his mouth and whistled sharply. Suddenly, the door flew open and all her friends poured into the little room. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AMY!" they all shouted at once.
Amy shrieked and tried to cover herself with her free arm. The hand towel already kept her decent, but in the excitement she forgot about that. "Eeeeee! Sonic, what are you doing!?!" Now she was the one blushing so furiously, her cheeks as pink as the rest of her.
Sonic grabbed a toothbrush off the sink and held it like a microphone. "News at 11!" He leaned in toward Amy and grinned. "So, Amy Rose, how do you feel now that you're all grown up?" He held the toothbrush out as if to get her statement.
The shock had worn off, and now she was just mad. Her eyes narrowed. "Like a Jiffy-Pop bag. GET OUT!" The room shook as she yelled. A bottle of soap spun through the air. Everyone except Sonic cleared out hurriedly. She wanted so badly to scream at him, but that last outburst had left her short of breath.
He flashed her that silly grin of his. That smile never failed to melt her heart and he knew it. Amy sighed and smiled sweetly back at him. "Oh, you sly charmer you. I can't stay mad at you when you look at me like that."
Sonic nodded and winked. "I know. How 'bout that ice cream?" He offered the bowl.
She eagerly accepted it. "Mmmmm, I'm starving to death." He chuckled.
"Yeah, ya look like it." He gave her tummy a soft rub.
"Hey! Are you saying I'm fat?" Amy narrowed her eyes at him.
"No way! Ya still look hot, doll." A playful poke at her abdomen. "Gonna look even better when ya pop those kids outta there."
She just giggled and gulped down a bite of cake and ice cream. "Oh, gods, Sonic. You're so crude it's charming."
He reached out and pulled playfully on her ear. "You know ya can't resist me."
Amy laughed and shut one eye as her cute little pointed ear was tugged. "Heeeeey, leggo. I need that to hear stuff. Hehee!" She crammed some more ice cream into her mouth, then reached up and took her vengeance by grabbing Sonic's ear and giving a good yank. He yelped.
"Ow! Hey, I didn't pull that hard!" He rubbed the ear that Amy had pulled.
She just laughed and purred softly. "Mmmm, I know." More ice cream went in her mouth, followed by some cake. "Mmmmf...gulp...It's sooo good."
After the ice cream and cake were in Amy's belly, she stretched out and groaned softly. "Mmmm, I could just lie here all day!"
Sonic tickled her chin. "Well, that's too bad, Ames. Ya gotta get up and come out and get cake and presents." He offered his hand.
She took it and strained, lifting herself up to her feet with no small amount of difficulty. "Uhmph, guh." Sonic handed her a towel.
"Dry yourself off, Ames, and ya can have my present now." He held up a plain cardboard box. "Um, sorry I didn't wrap it. I couldn't figure out how ta fold the paper right, then I lost the tape, and um..." She shut him up with a kiss.
"Mwa! Don't worry about it." She took the box from him and opened it. "Ooh!" From the box Amy pulled a beautiful dark blue party dress. She let out a gasp. "Oh Sonic, it's incredible!"
Sonic just shrugged and scuffed the floor with his shoe. "Yeah, well, I saw it the other day, an' I thought maybe it'd look good on ya, and blue's your favourite colour so...Try it on already!"
She did. Sonic helped her zip up the back. It was made of a very light and airy satin-like material that shimmered slightly as the light caught it. Amy instantly took a liking to it, but it was a bit snug. "Mmf, it's a little tight, Sonic." The front rode up over her bulging belly, bringing the bottom of the skirt, which should have been around her ankles, almost up to her knees in front. Sonic rubbed his quills and shrugged.
"Well, I got it for after ya have your kids. Should fit better then, I hope." He gave her a thumbs-up. "Ya still look real pretty anyway, Ames!"
"Oh, you..." She beamed at him. Sometimes he could be the sweetest guy in the world. Amy took his arm and leaned on him a little bit. "Let's go have a party."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The party was wonderful. Everyone had come, most with gifts, and by the time they'd all left, Amy had been stuffed so full of cake and ice cream and cookies and all manner of other sweets she felt like her stomach would explode from the pressure of so much food. She'd also been almost literally showered with gifts. Everyone wanted her to open their present first and nearly dumped them all on her at once. There'd been laughter and joy, as well as dancing, which she'd been too pregnant to enjoy, sadly, and oh, so much food. The pink lady stifled a hiccup, trying to overcome the urge to vomit. She just relaxed on the sofa and rubbed her belly, enjoying the smooth fabric covering it. Sonic came in with a glass of soda water to settle her stomach. Amy beamed an adorable smile at him.
"Mmm, thank you." She took the glass and had a nice big sip. "Ooh, my tummy really hurts."
Sonic laughed and tickled her bulging belly. "No wonder, Ames. Lookit this thing. Ya look like you're literally about ta pop."
She laughed at his humour and the light tickling of her tummy. "Hehehee, be-hehee, be careful, Sonic! Hee! Hey!" He kept up the playful tickling. "No-heheheheeee! You're gonna make me throw-hehehehee-up! Stop!" His playful assault continued. She squirmed, then yelped. "Ow! My back! Sonic!" She was fighting playfully now, trying to push his arms away. A warm wetness spread across her thighs and rear from between her legs. She shrieked. "Sonic! You made me wet myself! I told you to stop!" She scolded him harshly. "Help me up so I can clean up! Quick, before my new dress stains!"
He helped her up as instructed. Amy's back sang with pain. The wetness kept coming. "Yikes, Amy. You really had ta go, huh?" She was about to slap him when she realised she did have to use the bathroom. The wetness kept spreading, and she wasn't feeling any relief. She looked down to see a puddle forming at her feet. A puddle that was most definitely NOT urine.
"Oh my gods, Sonic! I think my water just broke!" An incredible pain suddenly shot through her belly and down her spine, nearly making her knees buckle. She screamed and shook the poor, hapless blue hedgehog furiously. "The babies are coming! Do something!" She was lifted into his arms and the incredible wind outside the building blasted her face before she could draw another breath.
