Hey It's me again heh. Now chapter 4 is ready so I hope you enjoying reading it! Oh, and I don't own Sonic or any of the other character in the story.
Chapter 4: Outing In the Woods:
"Oh Tails, you broke my garland" Cream said in a sad voice.
"Chao chao" Cheese supported her.
"I'm so sorry Cream, it wasn't on purpose" Tails replied in shame, while he took the ball up from the ground.
Amy looked up from her magazine when she heard Cream snuffle.
"What's the matter Cream?" She asked in a worried tone. She walked over to Cream, who sat with her broken garland in her hands.
"I was only playing ball with Chris and Danny, then I hit her flowers. It really wasn't on purpose!" He looked down at the ground.
"It's allright Tails, Cream knows that you didn't do it on purpose... Right Cream?" Amy asked and looked at Cream. She nodded.
"I really am sorry Cream" Tails repeated.
"Its allright Tails" she smiled "I'll just make another one". Then she started picking up new flowers.
"Typically of Cream to cry so easy" Knuckles said with a little smile on his face. He was sitting in the soft grass beside Rouge.
"You better get use to it Superboy, that's how kids are" Rouge whispered with a smile on her face.
They hadn't talked about the pregnancy for a few months, but suddenly Knuckles started to help more at home and he was a lot more thoughtful than ever before. Rouge's belly was also getting bigger and bigger, and there was no more doubt about the fact that she was pregnant.
"Yeah, I guess your right" Knuckles smiled with a little sigh.
All the friends had decided to go for a walk in the forest now where the weather was great. Chris and Danny were with them too. The friends had found a beautiful clearing so they decided to sit down for a while.
Amy was sitting under a tree, while she was reading in a magazine for women. Rouge and Knuckles were just relaxing in the grass. Sonic was taking a short nap on a bough. Shadow was also lying in the grass. Cream and Cheese was making garlands and Chris, Danny and Tails were playing ball.
"Come on Chris, sight a little higher this time" Danny called and got ready to catch the ball. Chris threw it but Danny didn't catch it and it flew right over Sonics head. He opened one of his eyes and looked at them.
"Sorry Sonic" Chris said, putting his arms behind his head, and tried not to laugh.
Sonic smiled at him and jumped down from the tree.
"Oh you just got to be kidding me!" Amy suddenly shouted in an angry voice. All the friends looked at her whit a questioning look at their faces. Amy noticed and looked back at them.
"What!" She exclaimed.
"Well I guess we are the ones asking this you sweetie" Rouge said.
"Oh, well it's nothing really, it's just this story I read. Somebody has taken the last page out of the magazine" Amy said and blushed.
"Well that truly is horrible" Shadow mumbled and rolled his eyes.
"Yeah as a matter of fact it is! It's a really interesting story!" Amy said in an angry voice and looked at Shadow. He just came up with a little smile and closed his eyes, before he leaned back in the grass.
"If it really is that interesting, what's it about then?" Sonic asked in a curious tone and used his speed to get over behind Amy so he could see what she was reading. He looked over her shoulder, but Amy closed the magazine before Sonic could have a look at it.
"Come on Amy, I just wanted to see what you were reading" Sonic exclaimed.
"Too bad Sonic, I read about something you men don't have an eye for" she said in a cold voice
"Oh I get it, it's one of those silly love stories right?" He replied in a teasing tone
"It isn't silly at all" she said in an angry voice and looked at him. "Just so you know it, it's very realistic!"
"Oh yeah, of cause" Sonic said and shrug his shoulders.
"You see! You men don't know anything about true love, not even if it's right in front of you! Especially not you Sonic the Hedgehog!" she yelled and walked away from him and deeper into the forest, with the magazine in her hands.
"Man what bothers her?" Sonic asked out in the blue and looked towards the direction Amy just went.
"Sonic just doesn't get a hint" Rouge sighed.
Knuckles was the only one who heard it.
"What do you mean?" He asked "what hint?"
Rouge sighed again but this time much deeper.
"What!" Knuckles exclaimed
"Nothing hon'" Rouge said with a little smile on her face. 'At least Sonic wasn't the only one who didn't got the point' she thought to herself. She got up to follow Amy.
Danny, Chris and Sonic looked at each other. Tails looked at them with a smile on his face.
"Who wanna play football?" he asked.
A little further inside the forest:
"Sonic is just so naive! All he cares about is himself!" Amy mumbled with tears in her eyes.
Suddenly she heard something behind her. She turned around and saw Rouge was standing right behind her.
"Are you okay hon'?" she asked and looked at Amy.
"Yes... Yes I'm fine" Amy said and wiped away a tear.
"You don't look like your okay" Rouge replied.
Amy looked at Rouge with a sad expression on her face.
"It's just that... Sonic... He can make me so angry! But I always forgive him, and he doesn't even ask for forgiveness. I just do it". Amy sighed.
"Yeah, that's how love is" Rouge said in a sympathetically tone.
Amy's sadness turned into anger.
"Well, I don't think I wanna be in love anymore then" she said and looked down in the grass.
Rouge looked at her with a surprised look on her face.
"Regrettably we can't control that..." Rouge started but Amy cut her off
"Yes I do!" She said and got up. "I don't wanna be that little girl sitting around and wait for him anymore! I'm not a doll he can throw around with, I got feelings too you know!"
"I understand Amy, but you just can't stop loving him from one day to another, it takes time. You know they say the first love is the true love right?" Rouge said
"I don't care!" Amy replied
"Oh yes you do Amy, and you know that! Maybe you can fool everyone by saying that you ain't in love with him anymore, but you can't fool your heart"
"I guess your right" Amy said and sighed. "Nobody can fool their own heart. It's just so hard you know, whatever I do, he doesn't seem to care. He's hurting me and he doesn't even notice".
"I know sweetie, sometimes love hurts, but think about it many times it's all worth it"
"Easy for you to say" Amy mumbled "You have it all, a beautiful house, a boyfriend who loves you with all his heart and soon you're going to have a baby".
"Yeah but I also fought for it! You know that Amy, you were there when Knuckles found out that I was pregnant!" Rouge said in an angry voice, with her hands on her hips.
Amy sighed; she hated it when Rouge was mad at her.
"I... I know Rouge, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings" Amy said quickly. "I just don't know what to do that's all".
Amy felt the tears forming in her eyes.
"I know Amy; sorry it wasn't my intention to hurt you either". Rouge said in a softer voice.
The two women sat down and looked at the blue sky.
"Wait a minute Amy... I think I got an idea!" Rouge suddenly said.
"An idea?" Amy replied
"Yeah, a great idea! I know what's missing! Something new about you Amy! Some new clothes a new style!"
"A new style?" Amy asked and looked doubtful at Rouge.
"Yes exactly! I think I know why Sonic never miss you."
"Really? Why?" Amy said in a cold voice. She didn't like to hear the fact that Sonic didn't miss her when she wasn't around.
"It's logical, you never let him" Rouge said with a little smile on her face.
"And what is that supposed to mean" Amy wanted to know
"As you said yourself, you're always around him, hugging him, supporting him. As soon as you see him you come running into his arms".
"Yeah, so?"
"So he doesn't have time to miss you when you are always around him. Try to stop hugging him when he saves you. Turn your back at him instead of running after him. When he talks to you try to sound like you don't care, like he always does to you. Oh and most important, you have to stop asking him out".
"But what if he doesn't care" Amy said in a worried tone
"Believe me, he does care! I know he does" Rouge said
"But how can you be so sure?"
"I just can Amy, please trust me on this one" Rouge said and looked at the pink hedgehog.
"Allright then I'll try" Amy said and sighed.
"Perfect, I have a great feeling about this" Rouge said with a big smile on her face as she jumped up
"Happy to hear" Amy replied and stood up too.
Suddenly they both heard a terrible noise, Rouge who had the best hearing hold her hands to her head to cover her ears and fell down on the ground.
"What in the wild world was that" Amy yelled and looked at Rouge who still was sitting on the ground.
"I don't know, but I guess we'll know soon enough" she said and pointed behind Amy.
Amy quickly turned around and saw the trees were pushed aside right behind them.
"My God what's happening?" Amy yelled as a big robot came up against them.
Suddenly they both heard a man's voice
"Well, well, well what do we have here?"
"EGGMAN!" Rouge and Amy shouted at once.
"You're right girls, I'm back in town" Eggman laughed.
"And this one is my new friend Octopus" he said and pointed at the big robot, who was looking just like an octopus.
"So, now that you're introduced... Octopus catch them both!"
Before Amy or Rouge could do anything, the big robot grabbed them with two of the eight arms and raised them up in the air. Amy could hardly breathe. She looked over at Rouge and she could see Rouge couldn't either.
"Let us go Eggman, or you will truly regret it!" Amy yelled and looked angry at Eggman.
"Yeah right, and who should make me regret it?" Eggman replied.
"You guess Eggman" Amy said with a little smile at her face.
"So... So... Sonic! Is he here too?" Eggman said in a worried tone and started looking around.
"Oh yes he is, and I'm sure that he's on his way to save us just now!" Amy said while the smile on her lips grew bigger.
Eggman looked around once more to see if Sonic was on his way, but Sonic wasn't in sight anywhere.
Amy also looked around, to see if she could see any of her friends, but she couldn't. She looked over at Rouge once more. It was pretty easy to see that Rouge didn't feel well.
"Let Rouge go Eggman!" She shouted in a furious tone.
"Yeah, of course" he said in a sarcastic tone "and why would I do that?"
"Because you're hurting her, you're hurting her baby!" Amy screamed
"Her baby?" Eggman said and looked at Rouge in surprise.
"You must be kidding me! Are you really... You know... Pregnant?" Eggman shouted
Rouge didn't have the power to speak because of the big press on her belly so she just nodded.
Eggman looked at her like she had just fallen down from the moon.
"Who's the father? Is it Knuckles?" He suddenly asked still looking at Rouge.
"It's none of your business" Amy yelled. "Let her go NOW!"
"I don't get it, I'm away for a couple of months, and when I finally come back everything here is totally out of control" he said and shook his head.
"Allright then, I need someone to bring a message to Sonic anyway".
He gave the robot order to let Rouge go.
"Then you can tell Sonic that if he ever wanna see his little girlfriend again he has to come and pick her up at my base". Eggman laughed.
Suddenly the big robot got wings and flew away with Amy. Eggman followed in his Egg carrier
Rouge sat on the ground unable to do anything.
Amy screamed and tied to get loose, but she couldn't. She didn't like to think about what Eggman would do to her, but at least Rouge and her baby were safe now...
