Ch.6

I waited at Sonic's locker. I hadn't seen him all day but people told me he came in late. I saw him approaching me, a smile coming upon his face. I smiled as he took me in his arms and landed a light kiss on my cheek. I blushed. "Hey girl," he said.

"Hi Sonic, um I was looking for you," I replied.

"Well you found me, what's up?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to see you."

"Good because I wanted to ask you out tonight."

"Tonight?"

"Yea, is there something wrong with that?"

"No, tonight is perfect. What will we be doing?"

"Just hanging out I guess."

"Okay, that sounds lovely." He raised his eyebrows at me.

"What?"

"Lovely? We need to get you a slang book."

"What's slang?"

"The way we talk."

"Oh."

"Take s'up for an example."

"What's that mean?"

"What's up."

"I don't understand."

"That's okay, we can talk about it later." He put his arm around my shoulders and started walking with me. I held the hand that was hanging off the side of my shoulder. Sonic nodded and high fived people who said hi to him. A lot of people looked over at me under his arm with awe. Serena and the two girls who fought me and Blaze on the bus came toward us. Serena shot a flirty smile at Sonic who had taken his arm off me and his face now had no emotion. "Hey baby," she said. Her face suddenly got sad. "I'm so sorry about the text messages. I can't believe anyone would do such a thing. I mean, privacy is a right isn't it," she asked.

"Move Serena," Sonic said, his voice cold. She seemed surprised.

"Excuse me."

"I said move."

"Why so mad Sonniku?"

"Don't call me that," he snapped.

"Sonic, you're not accusing me of doing the text messages are you?"

"Yes I am, because you're the only one who knew."

"Silver knew."

"No he didn't. He lives with my dad, how could he know?" She narrowed her eyes.

"I did you a favor hedgehog. Why keep secrets? We're all family in this school."

"Since we're all family, maybe I should let out your secret."

"No Sonic, that's not-"

"I know, then again, mine wasn't either." He took my hand and started dragging me away.

"What are you doing with that," Serena said, eyeing me. Sonic stopped and turned.

"My new girlfriend," he replied, a hint of affection in it toward me.

"You're dumping me?"

"I dumped you the minute the texts were sent." He put his arm around my shoulders again and started leading me down the hall.

"You'll make it nowhere with her Sonic! She's gonna bring you down," she yelled after Sonic. I wondered what her secret was.

"Wanna go to the beach," Sonic asked. I smiled.

"Sure, I just need to go home and get my stuff."

"Alright, I'll text you where." He pecked me on the cheek before going in the other direction of the parking lot. I spotted my mom's car and walked towards it, confused. I got into the car and looked over at my mom.

"Belinda, what did we say about being with him," she said, glaring at Sonic's retreating figure.

"My name is not Belinda for one, it's Amy. Second, I'm not gonna act like I don't have feelings for him because I do. He is one of the nicest guys I'm ever going to meet and I don't care about what you and Roger say, I'm going to be with him."

"Fine, then we're moving."

"What happened to free will? They said when I got here, I would be free to make my own choices."

"Well we're not going to let you make a choice that could get you in danger."

"He's not dangerous."

"So you say."

"Can we just go home, please?"

"As you say princess." She started driving.

"Don't call me that."

"Sorry Madame."

"Stop it, I'm serious."

"Just trying to remind you of who you are. Not who you want to be."

"What's so wrong with wanting to be normal?"

"You're a princess, the next queen of Costa Besono. You're not normal. You're special."

"Maybe I don't want to be special."

"Is this because of that boy?"

"That boy's name is Sonic."

"I don't care what his name is. Is this because of him?"

"No. I've been living in a fairytale for almost a year now. Being normal is amazing. You have the right to make your own decisions, you don't have arranged marriages, and you don't have such a high expectancy."

"Belinda-"

"Amy!"

"Amy, people dream of what you have. They want what you have. It's kind of ironic that you want what they have. You only want what you can't have. That's why you want Sonic."

"That's not true."

"It's not? If General Tucson catches you, you'll marry Scourge and you know it. I heard you used to have a crush on him."

"When we were like three sure I did."

"Belinda, I'm trying to help you here."

"Maybe I don't want help."

"Suit yourself."

"I will." We pulled up to the house. I ran to my room and shut the door. I called Sonic. He didn't pick up. I threw my phone across the room. I was too frustrated to be patient or even think about forgiveness. What my mom did was wrong and uncalled for. She hasn't been locked up in a castle for sixteen years. I called Sonic again. Still no answer. I called him ten times before I figured that he wasn't going to answer his phone. I waited an hour or three before going to Sonic's house myself. He hadn't even texted me to tell me where to meet him. I snuck out the house and made my way toward Sonic's neighborhood. I heard sirens and people yelling and screaming as I got near it. I peeked over a fence to see a big fight with tons of people going on. I wondered if Sonic was in there. I cautiously got closer to the front gate of the project. I stayed in the shadows as I got closer to the mayhem. I looked in astonishment at all the people fighting. I felt a hand on my leg. I looked behind me to see a little girl. She looked about eight. She had light blue eyes, short straight quills, and a light tan muzzle. Her clothes were worn. I bent down to her height.

"Hi sweetie, what's your name," I asked.

"Make them stop," she whispered.

"Make who stop," I asked.

"My brothers. My mom is with the police, but I can't find her. There's too many police cars."

"What's your name, baby?"

"Crystal." Sonic's half-sister.

"Where's your brothers?"

"I don't know, they're in the fight."

"Why aren't the police breaking it up?"

"Because they're punks."

"Why is everyone fighting? Is this everyone who lives in this project?"

"Yea. I'm not sure why they're fighting, but they are."

"Sonic's fighting too?" She nodded.

"Even he has to defend himself too."

"Did you fight?"

"A little." I heard a police officer yell to stop. The people in the fighting crowd didn't obey. I took Crystal's hand.

"I'm getting you out of here," I said.

"What about mommy and Manic and Sonic?"

"We'll find your mother. You're brothers…I'm not sure about them yet." More police cars came. Crystal led me to a police car where light blue curls could be seen standing behind it. "Mommy," Crystal said, letting go of my hand and running toward her. Her mother turned around, bent down, and hugged Crystal as she got in her arms. She started crying.

"Thank goodness baby, I thought you were gone," she said.

"I'm okay mommy. She helped me," Crystal replied, pointing to me. Sonic's mother looked up at me and her eyes lit up.

"You're that girl who was looking for Sonic, right," she asked. I nodded.

"My name's Amy," I said.

"Thank you Amy."

"You're welcome. What's going on?" She sighed and looked at the madness.

"Drama turned ugly."

"And Sonic? Why is he fighting?"

"He's just a target and he's letting his temper out from a lot of years of torture." I saw a figure step out from the crowd, another figure following it. Its arms open wide as if a hug or a challenge. I ran up to the two figures. One of them was Sonic. I stopped short when I saw his face. That cold angry look sent shivers through my body. I continued running after telling myself he wasn't mad at me. He was mad at whoever this other person was. "Sonic," I yelled. Sonic looked at me and his eyes lit up a little. The other person also looked at me and I saw who it was. I stopped running. Scourge. He smiled evilly at me.

"Princess, it's been a while," he said. I backed up. Sonic didn't seem confused. He knew who I was and who he was. His arch enemy, my arranged future husband. Scourge looked back at Sonic.

"C'mon Sonic, come hit me. Mess me up. Put on a good show for my girl here," his evil chilling voice said.

"I'm not your girl," I yelled.

"She's mine," Sonic said back. He motioned for me to come over. I did quickly. I hugged him, scared out of my life. Scourge could call his dad, they would get me and it'd be all over for me.

"Well well, look what we have here. A street kid and a royal. You guys make a good couple," Scourge teased.

"Shutup Scourge," I yelled. He smiled at me.

"Princess I'm here to offer you a deal."

"No."

"What if I said that you wouldn't be locked up when you returned to Costa Besono. Your mother would be let go and you would rule with me. And I'll even not beat up your little boyfriend." I didn't answer. If I didn't go, he would hurt Sonic and then drag me back to my kingdom. But if I went with him? What about Sonic? Too many thoughts. Too little time.

I personally don't like this chap, i thought i was moving it too fast and without question, but i couldn't change it becuz it probably wouldn't turn out right. Anyway...PLEASE REVIEW!
