It was mid-term exams week. If you were lucky, you would get fully recommended and wouldn't have to take exams. If not, at least you became a little smarter. Rouge wasn't as lucky as Blaze and Amy. Cream didn't have to take any exams yet.

"I'm so glad this is over. These exams are killing me." Rouge said as she got her stuff out of her locker that Friday. She had just finished her last one, and the girls were going out to celebrate.

"I feel bad for the people who had to take exams. We had a test in everything right before them." Amy said. Blaze nodded and sneezed.

"Bless you." Cream said. After the skating incident a week ago, Blaze had an awful cold. Blaze wasn't going skating again any time soon.

"Thanks. You're lucky Cream. You don't have any exams for three more years." Blaze said with a stuffy noise.

"By then all of you will be out of school." Cream said sadly.

"That'll be the day." Rouge said as they walked out of the school and into the cold January wind. They all ran to the car as fast as they could and drove to the café.

After getting to the warm café, Rouge started telling them about her plans on going to the city that weekend.

"Knuckles and I need a good get away. We're going to see this great movie, go shopping, maybe go swimming…" Blaze groaned. Cream and Amy giggled, making Blaze flatten her ears.

"What about you and Tails, Cream? Got anything special going on?" Rouge asked as she sipped her hot chocolate.

"Tails invited me to go to his cousin's birthday party this weekend. They're playing Dance Revolution, Rock Band, Guitar Hero, stuff like that."

"Does his cousin do anything besides play video games? Or does he have this thing about video games?" Rouge asked.

"Yeah, we're going tobogganing too. She also is having ice cream cake." Rouge's face was blank when Cream said she. Amy and Blaze laughed (or Blaze tried to).

"Are you and Silver doing anything this weekend Blaze?" Cream asked.

"We're just going to sit around home and find stuff to do. I don't really feel like going anywhere. You and Sonic doing anything this weekend Amy?" Blaze asked drinking some of her hot chocolate.

"We're going to see a movie this weekend. It should be good." Rouge and Blaze smiled at each other.

"What?" Amy asked.

"You seem happier now that you're with Sonic." Blaze said.

"So? Wasn't I fine before I met him?" Amy questioned.

"What we're saying is that you seem happier with him then you did with Shadow. You even seem happier now then before you dated anyone." Rouge said. This was true. Amy felt more like herself when she was with Sonic then she ever felt after her Mom died or when she was with Shadow.

"Maybe I am happier. Maybe this means more good luck will come my way." Amy said.

"A toast, to an easier term, to lots of luck, and hope that Dr. Eggman gets fired." Rouge said raising her cup. They all laughed at the last part, but toasted anyway.

OoOoOoOoOoO

When she heard knocking at the door that night, Amy practically jumped out of her chair to get it. Mr. Rose chuckled at this. Amy opened the door to find Sonic standing there.

"Hi, come in." Amy said. She closed the door and pulled on her coat.

"Hello Sonic." Mr. Rose said. Sonic had been to the Rose house enough times that Mr. Rose was starting to get used to his visits.

"Hey Mr. Rose. How are the chao's doing?" Sonic asked while Amy looked for her boots.

"Just fine. If you want to come help out, come any time."

"Will do. Are you ready?" Sonic asked Amy.

"Yep. See you later Dad." Amy said.

"Bring her back by 10:30, and call if you have any road trouble."

"We will bye!" Amy said as they walked out the door and into Sonic's truck.

"Dad seems to like you." Amy said as Sonic drove them away from the farm.

"He's cool. He sure takes working with chao's seriously." Sonic said. Amy shrugged.

"He couldn't stand to see a chao being treated wrong. He loves his job."

"Dose he pay you to work on the farm?" Sonic asked.

"Oh on, I do it because I love the chao's. Cream loves coming out to help out. She has her own, but he not doing so great."

"Why not?"

"He wasn't the youngest chao when we first found him. He's getting old." Amy said with a bit of a sad sigh.

"I used to wish I had a chao, but I don't think it would have lived. I can kill a silk plant."

Sonic said. Amy laughed. They talked all the way to the movie and almost all the way though it. They were quiet for some of it though. But not much, because when the movie ended they didn't even know what happened. They went to a small restaurant afterward and got hot chocolate.

"I love hot chocolate. I could drink it all year long." Amy said, taking another sip.

"I'd rather have a pop. But hot chocolate's good too." Sonic said.

"I heard you stayed after class with Mr. Eggman. What happened there?" Amy asked, though she already had a good idea why.

"He hates me. I didn't get my work in again. Eggman said, 'for the second time this year. If you keep this up, I'll have to fail you!'" Sonic said imitating Eggman (making Amy laugh), "It wasn't even for marks!"

"He hates just about everyone. You don't want to get on his bad side, but most people think he doesn't even have a good side." Amy shrugged and Sonic laughed.

"I think their right." Sonic said.

"He's tried to fail people before, but another teacher pulls them out. Some people have a count down to the day Eggman retires." Sonic laughed. They were quiet for a minute.

"So, I guess you heard about the Valentines Dance." Sonic said.

"I've been to one of them, they're ok." Amy said.

"Well, I was wondering, if you would like to go with me." Sonic asked. Amy's eyes lit up. She had never been asked to a dance before.

"Yes! Yes I would love to go with you!" Sonic smiled.

"I'll pick you up at 7:30." He said.

"The dance is almost two weeks away." Amy said.

"I know." Sonic said. They finished there hot chocolate and left. As they drove home, Sonic notice something. "Hey, look!"

Amy looked down the road. "I don't see anything."

"Look at the sky." Sonic said. It was a clear night, and the stars were out, but that wasn't the only thing Sonic was looking at. A blue-green ribbon danced across the sky.

"Wow. The northern lights." Amy whispered. They stopped in a field a little ways away from Amy's house to admire them.

"I've seen the northern lights before, but not this well. They're pretty aren't they?" Amy said, snuggling closer to Sonic.

"I've seen prettier things." Sonic said putting his arm around Amy.

"What?" Amy asked looking up. Sonic looked down and smiled. "You."

Amy smiled. Then they kissed, and Amy was sure no love story could be as good as this.

When she walked into her house her dad asked, "Hey, was your date good?" Amy practically skipped over and hugged her dad.

"My date wasn't good, it was fantastic! Night! Love you." Amy skipped up stair. All her Mr. Rose could do was smile and shake his head.
