Hey, here's another chapter of Reunited, sorry it took so long, I can't update from my tablet and my brother was FINALLY nice enough to let me on for a little bit.
Amy: Just get on with it already!
Sonic: Yeah, seriously, I just want this chapter to be over already!
Me: Aw, you don't like my writing?
Amy: Not in this chapter!
Me: Well, goodness Amy, why not?
Amy: Just shut up and get it over with...
Sonic: Seriously...please do...
Me: Well, Jimminy Jamminy, alright, I don't own any characters in this chapter, please enjoy, unlike these two sulkers...(Yup, I've seen Wreck-It Ralph and am about to see it again at 8:40! :D)
Chapter 10
"Don't you think you'd be awful lonely if you went by yourself?" I asked with a cocky smile.
"Oh, I don't know, I've been going by myself for some time now…" he said teasingly.
"Well, either way, I still say you shouldn't go alone, I mean, it's supposed to rain later…" I said casually knowing that he hated the rain. "And you still hate water right? Or have you gotten over that since I left?" I said.
"What does me going alone have to do with the rain or the fact that I hate water?" he asked.
"Oh…I don't know…I just thought you'd like an umbrella…" I said, a teasing smile sneaking it's way onto my face.
"Okay, I guess you're right, I would be pretty lonely if I went alone…" he said.
"Well, then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" I said heading for the door and grabbing an umbrella out of the rack.
"Wait, don't you need to turn the heater off first?" he said noting that the heater was still going full blast.
"Nah, just turn it down low, we won't be gone that long," I said opening the door.
"Okay!" he said turning the dial down to the second notch.
"Now let's go before they close!" I said with a smile on my face. I stepped outside after Sonic rushed out and locked the door. "You did remember your picture right?" I asked turning to him.
"Yep!" he said pulling the sheet of paper out from between his two back quills. "Now let's go!" he said with a teasing impatience in his voice.
"Alright, alright I'm coming!" I said running up next to him just as the rain started.
"Aw, man! I was hoping we could get there before it started raining!" he said looking up at the sky. "Curse you Mother Nature!" he shouted at the rain clouds above that gave a roll of thunder as their response.
I whimpered a little at it because I frankly hated anything loud.
"Oh come on Ames, don't tell me you're still afraid of thunder!" he said looking at me as if I were insane. "You've been afraid of it since you were twelve!" he said.
"Don't bring that up Sonic the Hedgehog, you're the one whose been afraid of water since before you were 15!" I snapped back.
"I'm not afraid of it it's just that it's a speed trap…" he said looking away. "And you know I can't swim!" he said looking back at me.
"Can't swim my butt! What about when Eggman tried to drown me with his stupid octopus robot! You could swim then!" I said.
"Yeah, because you were in danger! I never had a motive like that before!" he yelled back.
"And that's another reason I left too Sonic! I was tired of being your little burden, okay! You never did anything that was fun unless it was necessary and it wasn't fun! You had to go and make it so that the only way you'd help me is if it was life or death!" I shouted before turning my back to pout.
"You know what, you're just being as immature as before you left!" he shouted. "And maybe I should go to the Blizzard by myself!" he finished and turned away to run off.
"You know what Sonic, fine! Just go! This is no different than all the other times you broke my heart! Just get away!" I shouted heading up the walkway to my door. "And it's clear you haven't changed much either!" I screamed after opening my door. "So go tell all your friends about today, tell them how you learned my secret about my cousin, why not just tell the whole entire city!" I yelled slamming the door and sliding down it with my back against it. "It's clear he hasn't changed at all…" I whispered to myself as tears poured down my face. I looked over at the frame that had previously held the picture that Sonic had taken with him.
"Ames…" I could hear him say though through the door, it was muffled. "Ames, I'm sorry, I just lost it for a second…I just felt vulnerable…and I don't like feeling so helpless like I do when I'm with you…" he said. "Please open up Ames…please?" he said.
I didn't answer for two reasons, one, I didn't know if he was just saying it or not, and two, I didn't know if I could keep my voice from breaking.
"And…she's gone…" he mumbled. "I really am sorry Ames…" I could barely hear him say because it was a whisper, the last thing I heard before I ran to my room was the sound of the wind Sonic created when he ran. "Ugh! I feel so stupid!" I said falling face down on my bed and burying my head under the pillows. "Maybe if I just stay home tomorrow everything will just go away…" I said, I knew it wouldn't but I just needed a little bit of closure so I let myself believe it anyway.
So...lots of drama in this chapter...well, R&R for more!
