Chapter 4:

Amy Rose, walks out of the dressing room in the store next to the three-story mall, wearing a beautiful pure white wedding gown with a pink ribbon going around her waist and short sleeves. Her younger friend, Cream squeals in delight at her friend's appearance. "It looks beautiful, Amy!" Amy smiles warmly at her friend, then lifts up the long skirt and walks over to the mirror nearby the door.

Amy stares into her reflection and tears of joy begin to fall from her eyes, she stubbornly wipes them away; trying not to stain the dress with her tears.

"I can't wait to walk down the isle wearing this, Cream!" Her excitement feels the room; joining her best friend's very own excitement.

"Sonic will love it, I'm sure!"

Amy blushes a little, as she gets a image of her finance's face. "You really think so?"

"Of course!" Her friend pipes up as she walks over to the pink hedgehog.

Amy smiles at the reflection of her friend-and bride's maid. "I can't believe this is happening, Cream." She turns back to her rabbit friend.

"Yea, it took long enough, didn't it?" Cream laughs softly and takes Amy's hand which in return squeezes it.

"...And for a moment there, I didn't think Sonic would ever feel this way about me."She pauses before going on saying."But...I knew deep down that he did and one day he would return his love for me."

"Same here, Amy. I knew all along that you two would get together, it just felt...right." Amy smiles warmly then her friend suddenly jumps and squeaks out a loud "oh" ! all of sudden, making Amy jump in surprise, her young friend searches around the store then moments later she comes back with a silver crown with crystal-like diamonds placed all around the top of the crown. "Try this. I picked it out for you, I thought it matched well with the dress." Cream hands Amy the silver crown and Amy takes it gratefully.

She turns from her friend and faces the 5 foot tall mirror. She looks the crown over once more admiring it's beauty. She lifts the crown up and places it on her head, replacing what was once there; a red headband.

She looks at the mirror and begins to take in on her own reflection. Behind her, Cream peeks over her shoulder and looks at the reflection of her friend then she places her hands over her mouth; so she won't scream."Oh, Amy, it looks-"

"-Beautiful!" Amy finishes her friend's sentence before she can."I just love it, Cream, thank you!" She faces her friend again and embraces the young rabbit, in return she winces just slightly, but she gladly returns the embrace.

"I thought you would love it, Amy."

Amy pulls away from the hug and turns back to face the mirror again, she giggles then begins to twirl in-front of the mirror happily. "Cream, I'm so happy; it's like all of it's a dream, but it's not!" She exclaims to her friend;joy in her voice.

Cream laughs a little at Amy's excitement, her heart swells deep inside to see her best friend-no, wait, her sister, so happy."I can't either; but it really is happening, and I'm so happy for you!" Amy stops twirling and looking at her beautiful wedding dress, and her new crown then looks at her sister.

Amy suddenly exclaims, while her jade eyes are shining."I got the best bride's maid I could ever ask for." Amy smiles warmly and winks at her, which in return Cream blushes slightly and returns a warm smile to her older sister.

Hours later, Rouge meets up with Cream and Amy at Amy's place. Amy who has just bought the dress shows off her dress to Rouge, who falls in love with it instantly, exclaiming that the dress looked perfect on Amy and Cream had very good taste. Amy changes out of the dress so she won't get it dirty, then joins the girls and begins to have a long girl-chat about this and that going on. Amy bakes some peanut butter cookies for each other them and once the cookies cool down she brings a tray full of peanut butter cookies to the living room.

"You know, Sonic goes crazy over these cookies." She exclaims giggly, taking a seat next to her sister, Cream.

The huntress takes a bite of her one cookie. "That hedgehog has good taste, that's for sure." Amy laughs in return.

"Oh, thank you, Rouge!"

"Anytime, pinky." She winks at the pink hedgehog.

As the young pink hedgehog sits with her friends and enjoys her homemade cookies she recalls that one evening when she made them for someone special.

About a year ago, we find the hero of Mobius and his pretty girlfriend, Amy running around in the house; with flour scattered on themselves.

Amy laughs and runs into the kitchen, holding a big bowl with flour, eggs, water, oil and other ingredients blended together."Sonic! I can't get these done if you don't stop chasing me!" She yells over her shoulder. She begins to stir the ingredients again but then feels two strong arms wrap around her.

"Aww...I just want one bite." He nuzzles her.

Amy blushes as red as Knuckles is. She pulls away. "It isn't good for you when it's not fully cooked, hedgehog." She pokes his nose, playfully.

"I'm sure one bite won't kill me."

"If it does, don't blame me."

"How can I when I'm dead?" Sonic laughs loudly, making Amy join in.

"Okay, you got a point."

"Unless...I haunt you down." Sonic grins evilly.

Amy giggles. "Oh yes, that would be frightening." Amy turns red again when Sonic pulls her close to him, pressing his forehead against her own. "S-Sonic?" She asks, her heart pounding loudly from the closeness. Sonic leans forward and gives Amy a deep but yet gentle kiss, making her forget entirely about finishing the cookies. After a few moments, Sonic pulls away, leaving Amy a little dazed. Sonic grins in satisfaction and digs his hand into the bowl and pulls out now thick homemade cookie dough and before Amy wakes up, Sonic pops it in his mouth.

Amy finally wakes up."Ugh! Sonic!"

"Haha! Fooled you, didn't I?"

Amy smirks evilly at her silly boyfriend then looks at the opened bag of flour and dips her hand into the bag and pulls out a handful of flour and slings it at the hedgehog, white flour is now all over his handsome face. Amy bursts out laughing at Sonic's expression of fake annoyance.

"You wanna play like that do ya'?" He spits out some of the flour that entered his mouth, then grabs the bag of flour. Amy screams in fake terror.

"Don't you dare!"

Sonic slowly walks towards her with the bag of flour; in return Amy backs up."Sonic...I'm warning you!" Sonic gets ready to attack her with the flour but Amy runs out of the kitchen, safe and sound.

Sonic laughs."You know, I'll find ya'." Sonic points out, leaving the kitchen and heading to the living room.

"Sure~" Amy giggles, now behind the couch, holding a pillow.

Sonic looks at the brown sofa and gets ready to attack but a pillow is thrown at him. "AGH!" Amy laughs and quickly jumps onto the couch and pulls out the cushions and throws them at her boyfriend. "NOOOOO!" He screams in horror, dropping the bag on the floor; spilling the flour on the wood floor.

Amy grins in victory when she see's Sonic has gone down; so she rushes over to him and climbs on top of him, pinning him to the floor. "I win." She sticks out her tongue.

Sonic blushes a little, but grins at his girlfriend. "You cheated."

"So do did you, so we're even."

"Fine. Fine." Sonic chuckles. Sonic looks up at her, placing his arms behind his head. "So, what do you win?" He rolls his eyes, playfully.

"Hmm... I get the first cookie." She smirks; knowing full well Sonic wants them all. Silly Hedgehog.

Sonic frowns. "Darn."

Amy giggles at this, flattered that he loves her cooking so much. "And..." She leans forward and presses her lips against his, taking him by surprise. He doesn't pull back, he just places his hand on her head and deepens the kiss just a tad.

Amy sighs back in the present time, while the other girls chat on about other things from boys, and the wedding. Amy thinks about what could possibly happen after her and Sonic are married. Like, will they have kids? She sure hopes so. Her heart swells with joy upon holding her and Sonic's very own baby; but, she knows that will have to wait, Sonic won't be up to having a child and settling down all at once. Just give it time, she tells herself.

TBC!

Okay, a little bit longer than the other chapter?

Well, what do you think? Enjoyed the scene with the girls? :D I hope so.:) The next chapter may have just the guys in it. So, stay tune!^^

I was thinking about adding more girls to this story (close to Amy's age or Cream's age) but I'm not sure who would work... Got any suggestions?

Should I accept Fanmade Characters? I'd love to hear from you:)

Thanks for reading,
