Sonic was angry…no that's an understatement he was furious. His fists were clenched and his face looked like he could kill. Sonic punched Alex into the pool. I sobered up very quickly. Alex swam to the edge of pool.
"What the hell is wrong with you? You bastard!" Alex spluttered. He tried to swing one at Sonic. But Sonic punched him hard in the stomach. Alex fell back into seats, some of his friends ran over to see if he was okay. I looked at Sonic in shock.
"Sonic." I whispered. Sonic looked at me and gave me such a cold stare and walked out of the party.
I dragged my drunken, miserable self home. I tried to avoid my family and locked myself in my room. What have I done? I fell on my bed and literally cried myself to sleep. The next day I just wanted to stay in bed and slowly die cause I have the worst hangover ever! What happened last night was all clear in my head and I wish it wasn't. Someone knocked on my door, I tried to ignore it.
"Shadow?" A voice said outside.
"Go away, Maria." The door was still knocking, it was probably Mom. I stormed to the door and opened it.
"What?" I said bitterly.
"Alright I'm sorry maybe I should go home." Said confused Silver.
"Sorry Silv I've got a really bad hangover."
"I heard what happened last night.." Oh gosh….
"I don't know what came over me." I said sobbing on Silver's shoulder, few minutes later. "I was so drunk and he kissed me and I didn't know what to do."
"I understand what position you're in, it must be so hard." Silver said kindly rubbing my back.
"You should have seen his face he looked like he was gonna punch me next. I d-don't think I'm gonna be able to go outside ever again." I said stuttering.
"You are, right now!" Silver said dragging me off the bed.
"Where? Don't drag me to Sonic's house or anything..."
"Of course I won't. We gonna meet up with our friends." Oh great.
I slowly got ready even though Silver told me to hurry up. I really hope I see Sonic I need to tell what really happened. When I went downstairs I saw Silver sitting patiently in the living room trying to survive a shitload from Maria.
"Can we go and get this over with?" I said grumpily.
"What's wrong with you, Mr. Always-Miserable?'
"Shut up, Maria!" Silver laughed.
"C'mon Shads let's go."
"Are you guys going on a date or something?" Maria asked.
"MARIA!" I shouted.
"No we're not just hanging out bye!" He said quickly pushing me outside before I kick Maria.
We went to the shopping centre and Chris, Tails and even Knuckles and Jet was there.
"Shads it's great to see you!" Jet said happily hugging me.
"Hi Jet." I said smiling.
"I heard about what happened last night are you alright?"
"Yeah I guess."
"I knew you couldn't have kissed Alex like that. You really like Sonic."
"Have you heard from him." I said hopefully.
"No I haven't sorry." He said disappointed. Just then we saw some of Sonic's friends walking by.
"Yo Shadow! Ya like Alex now huh?"
"No it was a mistake I was drunk!"
"Sonic's well pissed off with ya! Ya better watch y'all back incase his cousin beats the fuck outta ya!" They said looking meanfully.
"Yeah thanks pals." I said sarcastically. They laughed and stride off. I put my hands on my head.
"What am I gonna do, he'll never speak to me now!" The gang tried to cheer me up for the next hour even Knuckles. Pulling all these funny jokes but all I could think about was Sonic.
"Shadow!" Is that who I think it is? I turned around happily.
"Sonic!" Until I realised it was the fox that I drunkenly kissed last night.
"Shadow can I talk to you?"
"Why should I? Sonic's never gonna talk to me again. You got what you wanted." He looked taken aback. Alex grabbed me off the chair and dragged me somewhere private.
"I never wanted you to fall out with Sonic."
"Then why the hell did you kiss me then?"
"I couldn't resist it."
"You can't resist anything can you? Sleeping with a freshman who used to be my boyfriend, stealing people's love life because you were jealous of them."
"I am not jealous of you and Sonic." Alex said defensively.
"Oh yeah?"
"Look I know you're upset about what happened and I'm sorry."
"It's too late, Alex the damage has been done." For some strange reason I started crying again.
"Look it's alright it was all my fault."
"No it wasn't it was me I should have stopped you."
"You couldn't have helped it." Alex hugged me. He was really warm and he held me tightly, we looked at each other in the eyes for a long time.
"Oh my god!" A voice said sounding amused. I turned and it was Sonic. Shit.
"Sonic I can explain." I said quickly.
"You don't need to explain anything." Sonic said coldly.
"Sonic listen to what he has to say." Alex said calmly.
"Was I fucking talking to you?" He said angrily.
"I was drunk last night I didn't know what I was doing."
"If I was staggering all over the place I could still notice someone was kissing me."
"But this was different."
"Oh, so you're saying you liked the kiss?"
"No!"
"You know what Shadow. I don't care what you say to me. You lied to me and said you were never gonna go near this bastard. But you did. I'm embarrassed that I had been cheated for a guy like him. You know what? Alex was right when we broke up. I'm not good enough for anyone." He started to walk off. I started crying again.
"Sonic please listen to me!" Alex stormed up to Sonic.
"Fucking listen to him!" He shouted.
"Don't you dare touch me!" He pushed Alex violently away.
"Sonic.."
"Shut-up Shadow, it's over!" He said sounding very hurt indeed. He must have been, cause he was running out of the shop, pushing people violently out of the way.
"Those damn teenagers!" One of the customers shouted. I was crying silently as Alex got himself up. He was about to hug me but I hugged him instead tightly. I cried for about ten minutes and we were walking around trying to find my friends cause they left where they were before. Some friends. We didn't speak to each other. I just sadly looked at the floor.
"You'll get over it I mean there a loads of other hot guys even hotter than Sonic!"
"Do you know anyone hotter than Sonic?" I asked sadly. Alex paused.
"Alright I get your point. But there are loads of other guys like…me." He said cheekily.
"I don't want to be sleeping with someone who slept with my ex thanks."
"I was only trying to cheer you up."
"Well it wasn't funny." I finally saw my friends they ran towards me.
"Oh my god! We've been looking all over for you! We saw Sonic! But he was crying, we tried to talk to him but he told us to fuck off!" Chris said looking annoyed.
"It's alright let him cry he hurt me really bad too." I said angrily. I just felt so angry that Sonic wouldn't listen to me. Was all this pain worth my time? If he wants to act like this he can do what he wants, we're over now anyway so who cares?
The next day I got straight out of bed and was ready to face school as a single man again. Hmm maybe I should have a new style? I styled my hair in a different way and I even loosened up my uniform like Sonic does. I arrived at school listening to my iPod trying to not give a shit that everyone was staring at me. I guess the news travelled. I noticed that Knuckles was staring at me.
"What?"
"What have you done to yourself over night?"
"Is that a good thing or…"
"Yeah you look hot! Go around like that and Sonic's gonna be dying to talk to you again."
"But Knux I don't think I want to talk to him again." Knuckles looked like he was gonna faint.
"Did I just hear what you said?"
"Yes! I want nothing to do with Sonic anymore." I casually walked off leaving Knuckles dazzled. When I got to class all the guys were checking me out and whistling. I sat in my seat and the person sitting next to me poked my shoulder. I turned and saw a purple chameleon.
'Hey I'm Espio I've been wanting to talk to you for a very long time."
"Shadow." I shook his hand.
"I heard about you and Sonic. I'm sorry."
"It's ok I'm over it."
"I have to say you're handling this very well."
"Thanks." A new friend finally in this class, everyone just seems to stare at me.
"Don't worry about these guys, they've just never been near a popular person before." Espio said smiling. He can read my mind.
"I'm not popular." I laughed.
"You are. You're literally the talk of the school. More popular than Sonic at the moment." I blushed. He leaned in and whispered. "And more hotter than him." Was he flirting with me?
"I take that as a compliment." I smiled. During the lesson I felt good about myself no one has ever said that to me before. But the nice feeling went when I walked out of the classroom and realised that Sonic wasn't gonna be there to kiss me and ask how my lesson went. Shut up! We're over! That's it. You're a new Shadow Wilkins! I toughened up and strided into the cafeteria. Silver saw me and smiled.
"Look at you! Is this the new Shadow?" He asked raising an eyebrow. Chris realised it was me.
"Whoa." Was all he can say. Sonic and his gang walked in the cafeteria and he didn't even look a second at me. I felt a bit disappointed cause I wanted to show how much I changed but at the same time WHATEVER! I walked in front of where Sonic was sitting but he still wasn't looking he didn't look like he cared. Alex walked over to Sonic.
"You know what Sonic you made a big mistake to dump Shadow like that. Cause I don't think you ever gonna get him again since how hot he is today." Sonic smirked.
"Do I look like I care?"
"I think you should."
"Get lost Alex."
"No."
"GET LOST!" Sonic shouted a bit louder. The whole cafeteria was quieting down.
"You can't tell me what to do, shorty." Sonic shot straight out of his seat.
"Do you want me to beat the shit out of ya!"
"Go on then, give it your best shot." Sonic punched Alex right in the face. Doesn't Alex ever learn? He flew into the chairs crying in despair. Sonic looked like he was ready for more but his friends were pulling him back.
"Sonic he ain't worth it and neither is your slutty ex boyfriend." Everyone looked at me. And for the first time Sonic looked at me.
He looked at me sadly and then walked out of the cafeteria with his friends following him. People were still staring at me. I fought back the tears eating my soul and walked back to my seat not trying to care what happened. My table was silent. Even Chris was silent. When it was the end of school I ran back home locked myself in my room and cried my heart out. Why does all of this happen to me? I wish I never went to the party.
