I sighed. Amy looked scared to death. "Sh-Shadow? Are you sti-still there?" There was no reason to reply if she couldn't hear me.

"Amy" I whispered. Come-on, try really hard Shadow "I'm here" I tried to wrap my arms around the scared hedgehog, forgetting that they would only sink threw her. I really wanted to protect her. Tell her she's safe, but you can't get everything you want. "Amy... I-I" don't say it Shadow. Don't do it "I love you" Damn! Why am I such an Idiot?

"Shadow?" Amy whispered. Did she hear that? Man, I don't understand how any of this is happening right now. I guess I do love Amy, but not in that kinda way. She's like a friend, I care about her. I want her to be happy. She is not going to die, no matter what. I will do everything I can to keep her from dying. I wish I could protect her. I am going to save this girl, from anything bad that happens.

"Amy, you have me" I smiled for her hoping she'd see me but instead she just sobbed. Confused. I really don't blame her. I want this girl to be save more then anything else in the world. She fell to the ground in short sobs. "Stop crying!" The door bell rang. Amy wiped alway her tears and put on a fake smile. She picked her self up and walked to the door. I followed. Rouge and Knuckles were standing there.

"Hey Amy" Rouge smiled. Amy put her hand on her head confused.

"Um... hi..." Amy gazzed her eyes up.

"Whoa, what happened? You seem like you just saw a ghost..." Knuckles said considered.

"You have no idea buddy." I stated.

"What are you two doing here? Why are you together? You hate each other." Amy said, as she looked like she was about to faint. Rouge and Knuckles looked at each other for a second.

"We're friends..." they said at the same time. "We're here to talk about the emerald..." Rouge stated.

"The what...?" Amy didn't sound like her self. I hope I didn't do anything to confuse her... who am I kidding. This is all my fault. "My head is killing me..."

"Amy, what happened with you?" Knuckles growled.

"Shadow..." She whispered.

"Shadow is fine, he's back remember? I'm not sure how, but he is. He survied" I rolled my eyes at what Rouge said.

"No... No he didn't" Thank you Amy! Someone with a little common sense here! "I saw him. He's dead, he's a ghost, I don't know who that other guy is but its not Shadow"

"Okay...?" Rouge said, she obviously thought Amy was crazy. But she wasn't. At least someone knows the truth. "I think you should go to sleep... Here I get you an ice pack for your head ache" Rouge ran to the kitchen while Knuckles walked Amy over to the couch. Rouge rushed back in with a Ice Pack. I watched saying nothing. As if I wasn't even here. Amy fell asleep with the ice pack on her head. She looked tired and confused as hell. I couldn't help but stare at her, no stop it. Suddenly I stopped my self and went into the kitchen where Rouge and Knuckles were talking.

"How do you think she's feeling?" Knuckles asked as Rouge set down his coffee.

"I think she'll be better in the morning" Rouge smiled "But until then..." She moved her chair closer to Knuckles. Knuckles crushed his lips onto hers. Suprise Suprise. Knuckles broke the kiss.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa... wait... don't you think it's sneaky that we are dating and no one knows?"

"Yeah, but I like it... Maybe one day we'll tell everyone, but right now we should enjoy this moment" They kissed once more. I'm quite happy that they got together, although I don't think it'll last long. Those two are so different, Well... I don't know. I sighed as I sat in the empty chair. I walked out, I couldn't handle any of this awkwardness. I went back to where Amy was sleeping. I sat there next to her and closed my eyes and rested.
