Chapter 9

"Why didn't you go after me when I left?" the question echoed in my mind over and over again.

"I did…" I said facing her. "In fact that's all I did when I went running…" I said honestly. "I'll tell you exactly what I did if you want…" I said.

"Please do," she said.

"Okay, this is what happened…" I started.

*Flashback*

I was running through Green Hill Zone like I did every day but something was different about today, something was...missing. 'Where's Amy...?' I thought in the back of my mind. 'Maybe I should go look for her... Nah, it's nice to finally have some time to myself' I thought stopping and sitting underneath a tree. "I'll just take a nap for now and go see if she's alright when I wake up..." I said to myself, but something was eating at me, something wasn't right. "Maybe I should go check on her…" I said standing up. I ran to Amy's house to see if she was there but when I got there, all the lights were off inside. "Ames, you there?" I asked knocking on the door. "Ames, it's me, Sonic!" I called when she didn't answer.

I checked the door and it was unlocked. "Hmm…that's strange…she never leaves without locking the door first…" I muttered.

"Ames?!" I said stepping inside. "Are you in here?!" I called.

No answer.

"Amy, this isn't funny, where are you?!" I said getting a little frantic. "Amy?! Where are you?!" I yelled running throughout the house looking for her. I ran into the kitchen and found it empty just like all the other rooms in the house. "No, this can't happen...!" I whispered running my hand through my quills in frustration. I looked around and noticed a piece of paper on the ground surrounded by broken glass. "What's this?" I said kneeling down next to the piece of paper. I brushed the glass off the paper and saw that it was a picture of me, Tails, and Amy, though I had used two of my fingers to put bunny ears on Tails and had my other arm around Amy's shoulders, we had taken it at the Christmas party the year before. 'That's weird...why would this be smashed...?' I thought. I decided to go talk to Tails and see if he knew anything about where Amy was.

"Hey, Tails?" I said when I got to Tails' workshop. "You wouldn't happen to know what happened to Amy would you?" I asked my best friend who was working on something.

"Umm...nope..." he said, I could tell he was lying.

"Tails, what do you know?!" I said.

"N-nothing..." he said.

"Tails, please tell me where she is," I begged.

"I...I don't know exactly but...she...she left..." he said not looking me in the eye.

"Wh-what?" I said in shock. "You're kidding right?" I said searching his face for any sign of humor but I knew that Tails wouldn't joke about something like that.

"I'm not..." he said with a guilty look on his face. "Sonic, are you okay...?" he asked.

"Why...why would she leave...?" I asked still in shock.

"I don't know..." he said with a concerned look on his face. "Are you gonna be okay...?" he asked.

"I'll be back later..." I said bolting out the door without answering his question. I ran back to Amy's house to make sure I didn't miss anywhere. "She can't be gone...she just can't be..." I said checking everywhere in her house; the hall closet, her closet, the bathroom, the pantry, the cabinet under the sink, everywhere. "No...no, no, no, no, NO!" I said running my hand through my quills and kicking the counter in the kitchen. "She can't be gone..." I whispered falling down onto my knees.

"...I can't believe she's gone..." I said almost silently letting the tears fall. "I should've apologized while I still could...I should've told her while I could...but now...she's gone..." I sobbed into my hands. "I've gotta find her..." I said standing up. For the next month and a half I looked for Amy, I ran everywhere and then when I got back I locked myself in my room to plan where else she might be.

*End of Flashback*

"Oh wow...I had no idea Sonic…" Amy said when I finished. "I always thought you were relieved when I left…" she said looking down.

"Ames…" I said pulling her chin up so that she was looking at me. "I was anything but relieved when you left…" I said. "When you left it almost killed me Amy…" I told her.

"It almost killed me too…having to go every day without seeing you…or the others…Cream's the only one I really kept in touch with but I kept your number… There were so many times I almost called you…but I never worked up the courage to…" she said.

"I thought about calling you every hour of every day…but I couldn't work up the courage either…I thought you'd yell at me or that you hated me…" I said.

"The great Sonic the Hedgehog couldn't work up the courage to call his biggest fan because he was afraid she hated him?" she said sarcastically while putting her hands on her hips.

"Well…yeah…" I said. "But all that matters is that we're together now…" I said taking her hands and making her blush.

"I-I guess you're right…" she said.

"Now, are we going to the Blizzard, or am I gonna have to go by myself?" I asked teasingly with a cocky smile.

Well, ta-da, here it is, I know it's not some of my best writing but I wrote this a while back and kinda added some when I proof-read it, anyways, R&R on what I should build on and what I should try to get rid of in the story, and please don't hound me for making Sally so mean, I plan on changing it later on in the story, she just had to be mean, okay? Anyways, R&R! See ya next chapter!
