AMY POV
The sounds of the vibrations of my phone on my bed make me stir from under my pillow that was resting on my head. I ignore it as it disappears but then it comes back making me groan and I reach out from under my covers and my hand searches around for my annoying phone.
I grab it and then I bring it under my pillow, to my face and I unlock it with my eyes, closed as I yawn. I groggily open my eyes and I squint a bit because my phone brightness is too bright. My eyes read over a message.
"Hey, I have some free time right now if you wanted to get some breakfast, before I am kidnapped forever. I was thinking we should go get some waffles or something."
I spring out of bed and my pillow hits the floor.
"H-how long have I been out." I say out loud and I look at the time on my phone and I compare to when Sonic texted me.
"9-9A.M.?! OH NO, ITS 12P.M. NOW!" I say and I flop back on my bed and I sadly bring my phone back to my face.
"…Okay well now I'm just guess that you are still asleep, so I won't call you but later on I am going to be with Manic because he wants me to get in his business. He owns a business btw. So, I'm going to be busy for a while, text me when you wake up and maybe we can do something later."
Sonic sent a message that was a lot later than the one he sent before.
"Wow, you are still sleep. Lazy ass."
I blush at his last text and I bring my other hand up to text him back.
"I was still asleep. Sorry, for missing out on a chance to see you, maybe I was just really tired. But, I'm awake now! So, if you do have free time, I'll be ready so maybe just call me. Also, I hope you have a great day and its filled with positive energy!" I text Sonic and then I wait a moment to see if he is going to respond.
I sigh as he doesn't text back, and I place my phone down on my bed. I get up and stretch and yawn and I start to walk towards my bathroom. I turn on my bathroom light and I look at myself in the mirror only to see my hair is a complete mess. I frown at myself as if I just would have put it in a ponytail last night, then I could have prevented this.
I wet my hair and I grab my comb and I comb through my hair trying to tame it. After I finish combing my hair and I look in the mirror to see that it is much better, and I put everything back in the right spot and then I walk into my sun lit room, from the sun.
I walk past my living room and I head to the kitchen to make some cereal. I yawn again as I reach up into my sandy brown cabinet and I pull out a bowl. I also grab cereal and almond milk and I combine the two into the bowl.
I place a silver spoon in the bowl and then I walked back to my living room and I sit down on the couch. I sigh softly and I take the spoon and I scoop some of the cereal in my mouth. As I crunch on the cereal I look to my silent phone and then I sink more into the couch.
"Why did I have to sleep for 400 plus hours…" I say to myself.
I gradually finish my cereal and I walk over to my room. I look at my backpack from school and I pick it up and I head back out of my room to go sit I the living room
"I might as well do some schoolwork to pass over the time."
From the past few hours and I've been doing homework and studying a bit so I can at least have a free week of homework. Also, I worked on algebra since Sonic threatened to take my guitar away which I struggle for most of those hours doing.
I hold a pen in my mouth as I read over the notes I wrote on paper. I pick my guitar that I bought out later and I strum the notes as my eyes move the notes I wrote down. I start to sway my head side to side as I was getting the hang of it.
Suddenly I miss a note and I frown as I stop. I place my guitar on the ground and then I lean over onto my coffee table to make a note to not miss this not again. I blink softly and I place the pen on my coffee table, and I look outside my window.
The sunshine through my window hitting my legs and I slide off my couch so I could be covered by the sun. I smile slightly as the warm sun feels good on my skin. I away from the sun and I look back at my phone. I pick it up and I turn the screen to see Sonic still hasn't said a word yet.
I place my phone back down and I stand up. I walk over to my kitchen and I open the fridge. I grab a container of salad and I close my fridge and I sit on the cold tile floor in my kitchen. I open the container and I pour the ranch inside. I shake it vigorously and then I open it back up to see everything mixed up inside. I grab my fork and I puncture one of the lettuces and I place it in my mouth.
I leave the fork in my mouth as I look down at my salad.
"Maybe he will call soon- "
Suddenly I hear my phone ringing from the living room causing me jump up quick. I drop my salad on the floor, and I take off and slip a bit in the process since I had on socks and I was trying to run on slick tile. I soon get my balance and I take off down to my living room.
"He is calling! He actually is!"
I jump over my couch and I grab my phone. Excitement runs through my body as I answer the phone. I walk up to my window and I smile excitedly as my phone connects to his.
"Well, about time you answered I never said I was gonna hear from you again!
"Heh, well if you really missed me then I should have just came over, Ames" says a voice that wasn't Sonic's.
I blush immediately as I notice it was not Sonic and I pull my phone away from my face slowly as I look at the screen to see who I was really talking too.
"Scourge-
"Hey you there?" Scourge says and I slowly bring my phone up to my ears.
"Y-yeah." I say as I look out the window sadly.
We both go silent and I hear Scourge clear his voice.
"…How are you?" he asks.
"I'm fine. How have you been?"
"I've been pretty good actually. I got that job. You know, the one that was super far from where you lived, and you didn't want me to go that far." Scourge says and I touch the window as I look at the sidewalk of where people were walking.
"Yeah… I remember." I say softly.
We both go silent and then I turn away from the window and I place my back on the wall.
"Thanks for not blocking me again."
"Well… you said you wanted to fix things so… I just thought I should give you another chance because everyone deserves another chance sometimes." I say and then I feel a ping of anger fly over me.
"Even though. You cheated on me. Harassed me as my first competition as leader and then you fought one of my band members! Don't ACT LIKE I FORGOT. YOU FREAKING IDIOT!" I yell and I squeeze my phone tightly as I feel frustration, I never knew that I had built up.
Scourge doesn't respond and I take a couple of breaths to calm down since I wasn't used to being so angry.
"Yeah, you are right. I am pretty dumb." He says and I sink down to floor and I look down at my knees that rest before me.
"I'm sorry. And I'm not saying sorry because I need to but it's because I'm sorry I ruined us." Scourge says and I blink softly.
"I'm surprised you even forgave me." He says and I look a bit.
"Well- you know I am not a person to hold grudges. I don't like to hold onto things like that."
"Right. You aren't."
"But… don't take my forgiveness for granted. I can go back to acting like you never existed."
"I won't. I won't."
We go silent once again and I wait for him to speak again.
"I wasn't trying to fight your band member. I just didn't like how he looked at you and well he hit me first- "
"Are you seriously trying to argue with me about my band member." I say annoyed.
"Not exactly." He says and I shuffle my feet.
"So, then what."
Scourge chuckles and then he goes silent again.
"Are you… dating him?" he asks, and I look up from my knee and I stare ahead.
"Axel must have told him, what I said about Sonic and I, when I met him at that coffee shop."
"What is making you ask that."
"Just trying to clear up some info a friend told me." Scourge says and I roll my eyes.
"Ye-"I hesitate before I speak as I think about letting more and more people know about me and Sonic when we are supposed to be a secret.
"But at the same time. I don't want anything to mess me and Sonic up."
"Yes. We are dating and you better not try anything since all we are trying to be is friends." I say confidently.
"I won't let anything get in the way from me getting to see Sonic to look at me the way he does."
"Haha, I won't. I won't." Scourge says.
"Does he make you happy?" he asks, and his question catches me off guard.
I look down to my hand on my lap and Sonic's face when kissed it yesterday flushes my mind. I bawl my fist together and I smile softly.
"Yeah, he does…"
"Well, as long as you are happy. I am too." Scourge says and his comment makes me smile even more.
"And I'll respect your relationship. Because, I don't want to lose our bond we grew together. Especially since you are giving me another chance." Scourge says.
"Thanks." I say.
"Mhm, and I have to go soon. I have to head into work in a few." He says and I nod my head.
"Okay, t-thanks for calling."
"Thanks for answering."
Scourge hangs up the phone and I drop my phone from my ear. I look at my phone again to see if Sonic had sent anything and he hasn't. I stand up slowly and I start to walk towards my kitchen. I stop halfway as I come near my couch and then I pull my fingers through my hair angrily and stomp on the ground. I plop onto my couch face first and let my arm hang off the side of my couch.
I grab my pillow and I rest my head on it as I open my eyes gently. I slowly let my phone hit the floor and I curl into my couch as Sonic continues to pop into my head. I then start to squeeze my eyes shut and I bite my pillow hard as anger runs through my body quick.
"CAN HE JUST AT LEAST TEXT ME BACK. OR SAY "OKAY" OR SOMETHING!"
Hours later
I weakly open my eyes and a dim light from the window shines on my arm. My eyes move to window and I notice that the moon is greeting me with its dim glow. I look away from the window and I push myself up lazily and I yawn big as I sit on my couch. I let my feet hit the floor and my foot touches something that makes me look down.
I look at my silent phone and I blink softly as I look at it. I stand up and I walk over it and I head to the kitchen. My feet touch the tile floor and I look at the salad I left out. The leaves had gone brown and soggy, so I just throw it away in the trash. I stretch again as I walk to my sandy brown cabinet and I pull out a glass cup. The moon light comes in through my window lighting up my sort of dark kitchen. I walk over to the fridge and I press my cup on the water dispenser handle and I stare at the water hitting the inside of my cup softly. I sigh sadly as I wait for my cup to fill.
"Lips meet teeth and tongue…" I sing softly as the moon light shines over me.
"My heart skips eight beats at once…" I sing slowly as I tilt my head a bit making my hair move with me.
I stop filling up my cup and I sip it. The light from outside catches my eye and I look over at my blinds that were letting a flicker of light inside.
"If we were meant to be, we would have been by now…" I sing as I turn away from the moonlight and I start to walk back to my couch that has been getting more attention than me all day.
"See what you wanna see, but all I see is him right now…" I sing as I drink my water once more and then I stare at the couch.
I place my cup on the coffee table and then I lay on my back on my couch. I grab my guitar and I adjust it in my arms so I could play it.
"I'll sit and watch your car burn…With the fire that you started in me." I sing softly as I stare at the ceiling and I play effortlessly.
"But you never came back to ask it out…Go ahead and watch my heart burn. "I sing a bit louder and then I stop strumming my guitar.
"With the fire… that you started in… me." I sing and then I place my guitar back on the ground carefully.
I stare at the ceiling in silence and then I raise my arm, like I am reaching for it. I look at my arm, all the way to my fingertips and then I bring it down on the floor. My hand hits my phone on the ground, and I pick it up slowly.
"I'm pretty sure he hasn't even said a word, yet since I got no notifications."
I bring my phone to my face and click on the button for it to turn on. Nothing happens making me click it again and then my phone continues to stay off.
"Wha-"
I lean quickly as I look at my phone. I click once more to make sure I wasn't dreaming or missing the button, but I was hitting the power button.
"Did-DID I REALLY LET MY PHONE DIE?!" I yell as I jump up and I run on my couch and I jump off of it, landing on the floor.
I run quickly and I swing my door open. I spot my phone and I run towards it. The pillow I dropped earlier this morning catches my foot and I trip causing me to fall chest first onto the floor. My phone flips out of my hand and I wince in pain as my chest makes contact to the hard ground.
"Ow, Ow, Ow." I say as I pick myself up and I reach for under my bed for my phone.
I grab it and I crawl in pain to my charger in the wall. I plug it in and then the empty battery icon shows causing me to stand up. I turn around I grab my pillow that tripped me, and I throw it hard at the wall.
I breathe heavily and then I notice a small piece of paper float in the air. I catch it and I look at it. I smile softly as I notice it's the pictures Sonic and I took that day we went on a date. I sit on my bed and I look over the picture.
I blush a bit as I look at the picture of Sonic kissing my cheek and then I laugh at our goofy one. Suddenly my phone goes bright and I notice that it is slowly turning on. I place the picture back inside of my pillow slip and I grab my phone from the floor, and I wait for it to load.
Anticipation runs through my veins as my lock screen appears.
I type in my password quick and then I have to wait for any notifications to load. I look at my phone until 3 messages pop up and I click it instantly. My eyes hit the messages sent from him and I feel my heart leap from my chest.
"Lol, thanks for the positive energy because it must have worked because today was actually fun. I ended up being on a yacht with Manic and his rich friends, so my phone died while I was there. Sorry for texting back so late, I wasn't expecting to be on a boat with people talking about what kind of women they liked. Also, I have some free time. Even though I have to be back here very soon to go help my sister and brother out with something. Maybe I can just swing by and give you a kiss or something, to make up for making a promise I didn't do. Also, I will call you right after I let my phone charge a bit now." Sonic texts and I scroll down a bit to read the other ones.
"I called you and you didn't answer. I hope you aren't mad at me or anything. Well, if you were, I am sure you would have been told me. Just call me whenever."
I exit the messages to see if I was missing a call from Sonic and I was.
"3… 3 missed calls…" I say softly and I go back to the messages to read his last one.
"I called you again and this time it went straight to voicemail, so I hope you aren't dead. Call me when you can? I might not answer right away because Sonia caught me before I tried to sneak out but at least call me, so I know you are okay… or text me. I miss you. I hope your day has been great."
The last part of Sonic messages makes my heart ache and I slowly click on the call icon. I gently bring the phone to my ear and I look down sadly at my hands that were fondling with my bed sheets. The phone rings for a bit and then it goes to voicemail causing me to instantly hang it up.
"Of course, he doesn't answer." I say softly.
"I missed my chance again."
I open my messages and I sigh as I start to text him back.
"I'M SO SORRY FOR NOT ANSWERING. MY PHONE DIED AND I THOUGHT FOR SURE I CHARGED IT. AND IM NOT MAD AT YOU. I'm just a dummy who can't answer the phone. But I'm glad you had a great day! Tell Sonia and Manic I said hi. Also, my day has been okay haha. I did all my homework. Oh! And I practiced on my algebra today even though I struggled so much! So, I deserve all the kisses and hugs when I see you. I also miss you as well so whenever you can. Call me so I can hear your voice. Good night."
I send the message and then I wait a moment to see if he would respond. Even though I had a feeling that he wouldn't. I place my phone on my bed and I stare at it for a moment before completely turning away from it on my bed. I get under the covers and I close my eyes.
I yawn again and I open my eyes a bit. I look back to my phone and then I turn back around. I close my eyes and I doze off again.
"3 chances. 3 chances and I missed them all."
NEXT MORNING
I mix the bowl vigorously as the rock music I have been playing from my phone blast loudly in my kitchen. The fast pace of the makes me nod my head as I jump up and down in my kitchen barefoot. I think stop mixing to see that the batter was perfect, and I pour it into the already hot pan. The pan sizzles as it meets the batter and I stop pouring as the batter gets in a perfect circle. I place the bowl down and I watch the batter carefully so I wouldn't burn my 5th pancake this time.
I grab my spatula carefully and I stare closely at the pancake. I watch a bubble pop on the top of the pancake that still had uncooked batter and I swiftly flip the pancake with my spatula. I place it back down carefully and I gasp as I see that I got one side correct.
"YES!" I yell loudly as I got it a nice crispy light brown.
I smile brightly and then I dance around in the kitchen in a black crop top with no bra underneath and some grey shorts with white draw strings. I walk back to my pancake and I stare at it eviliy as I knew there was no way I was going to get this pancake wrong this time.
I wait a couple moments and I stare at the pancake like I am a lion watching it's prey. I suddenly grab the frying pan and I flip my pancake in the air. The pancake shoots over my head and I scream.
"NONONONONO!" I yell and I run towards my pancake that was flipping in the air.
I dive for my pancake as it heads for the floor and I catch it just in time. My leg skins the ground a bit and I wince but I smile as I caught my pancake. I stand up and I raise my frying pan in the air.
"HA!" I yell.
I make several more pancakes since I was such a pro and I walk over to my kitchen table. I sit down and I spread butter on top and then I pour some strawberry syrup over three I made. Clasp my hands together and I thank the food. I grab my fork and knife and I cut into the pancakes.
I place one in mouth and I blush as the pancakes taste so perfect. I take another bite and sigh in happiness. I look over to my phone and I stare at it for a moment. I grab it and I look at it. I change my music to something more peaceful instead of hardcore rock music.
I place my phone down gently and I look outside my window. The sky was a bit cloudy, but the sun was still working hard as it shinnied from time to time during the late morning. I grab my tea I made, and I sip it carefully not to burn my mouth. I gently place it down and I go back to eating my pancakes and listening to music. I stare at the other pancakes I made, and I look back at my phone. I grab my phone and I start to scroll through social media. I go over some random people's pictures and then my eyes hit "Disconnection." Page.
I frown and I stuff a pancake in my mouth angrily as I look at their post. It shows Cream, Tikal and their other members standing in front of the competition place we had to be in a couple of weeks. I clench my phone as I look at their happy faces and then I slam my fork in pancakes and I instantly go to my band's group chat.
"YOU ALL BETTER PRACTICE THE SONG AT LEAST ONCE TODAY. PRACTICE AT SCHOOL IS NOT PRACTICE. IT'S FOR SHOWING OFF YOUR PRACITCE! YOU PRACTICE AT HOME AND THEN YOU PERFORM TO ME AT SCHOOL. DO YOU UNDERSTAND!" I text angrily and I wait for someone to respond.
"Geez Amy… I am guessing you are posting this because of "Disconnection's "post." Rouge texts and I blush immediately.
"I'll practice! I'm on it right now!" Tails replies and I smile.
"ROUGE TAKE THIS SERIOUS JUST LIKE TAILS!" I text back and Rouge replies back with a "Okay" emoji.
"THAT'S THE SPRIT! I'LL PRACTICE AS WELL!" I text back and start to eat my pancakes faster.
My phones go off again and I open it and read the message.
"Where is the singer? There is no way he is still sleep." Rouge texts.
I slowly stop eating and I place my fork back down.
"Yeah, this is unlike Sonic. Usually he would complain by now." Tails texts and I bite my lip.
"True, I don't know where he is." I text back and then I place my phone down.
"Especially since he didn't even text me back. It's been so long; I feel like a normal person would have texted back by now, but he hasn't even said a word." I think to myself as I think about how long it had been.
I continue to eat my pancakes and I try to distract myself from thinking about him for a moment.
Hours pass and I finished eating and I cleaned my kitchen to continue to keep myself occupied. Now, I am back in my living room and I practicing playing the song we are supposed to be played for the next competition. I also have made some calls to check with D' Coolette to see if she had our outfits in order so we wouldn't have nothing to worry about.
D' Coolette was going to make sure we looked the best we could so we could easily win the competition.
I read over the rules to make sure I don't miss anything, and I check off some of things we were going to need to be able to go in the first place.
"The winner gets an instant jump into the Tokyo summer jam beach festival instead of having to send in a tryout video to compete form the festival." I say softly as I read over the rules.
"Just one win. That's all we need. We can't lose focus at all. Not at all since we are coming so close." I say as I place the rules down.
My phone starts to ring, and I jump at the loud noise. I walk over to it and I pick it up.
"Hello?" I say.
"Hello! Is this the leader of "4 Times Different"? Amelia Rose?" says the man on the line.
"Yes."
"Alright so we wanted to make sure you are sure on the hotel you all are staying at for one night and if we needed to extend a day?"
"No! One day is fine!" I say cheerfully.
"That's all we need anyway" I think to myself as an evil smile appears on my face.
"Perfect and… 3 rooms? Correct?"
"Yes! One of my band members are staying with another band member that is also performing so we only need 3 rooms." I say.
"Alright! Then we have you all set. Can't wait to see you all in a few weeks." Says the man.
"Thank you! Bye." I say and I hang up.
"Since Cream and Tails are going, they wanted to be in the same room together. I didn't have a problem with it because I like Cream now, but Tails better keep his head in the game." I think to myself as I grab my guitar.
"Also… maybe Sonic and I can sneak into- "
I blush madly as I think about Sonic and I sneaking into each other's room.
"No- I would get distracted from our goal. I can't do that- "
I clench my guitar and I bring close to my chest.
"Well, I'm pretty sure I am going to be distracted anyway. He always distracts me." I think as I look down at the sheet music.
"Even now… he has such a big impact on my focus and feelings."
I look at my phone and I sigh.
"Is… is this what falling in love is like? So powerful it numbs normal thoughts." I say softly.
"I wonder if he is thinking about me too?"
MORE HOURS LATER
I breathe heavily as my tennis shoes hits the warm concrete. I look at the cloud in the sky and I notice it is so close to touching the sun. I look back forward and I speed up as I pass a group a people who watched me run past them. I keep on running fast as my feet hits the ground constantly.
"Hey! You forgot something!" yells one of the people I just ran by.
I slow down and I turn around.
I pant heavily and I look at them confused to see that they have nothing I owned.
"My number!" yells the guy and his friends start to laugh.
I frown and I turn around fully to look at them.
"You forgot something too!" I yell back.
"Oh, really? What did I forget princess?" he says, and I frown again as he gave me a pet name.
I start to jog again, and I raise my hand in the air.
"This!"
I flip him off as I continue my race with cloud in the sky trying to go over the sun. I hear more laughs and I laugh myself at my witty comeback.
"HEY! YOU DO KNOW I COULD FOLLOW YOU BACK TO YOUR PLACE RIGHT?!" I hear him yell and I scoff.
"AND IF YOU DO! I'M BEATING YOUR ASS!" I yell as I start to run even faster, getting away from the creepy random strangers.
I return my focus back on the sky and I notice the cloud was so close to the sun. My eyes widen and I speed up. I jump over a hole in the concrete and I sprint to my apartment. I look back up and the cloud is one inch away from. I look forward and I slow down as I realized I passed my house.
I look at the cloud and I look back to my apartment.
"Oh…" I say as I am out of breath.
I walk into my apartment and the fresh AC hits my sweaty body and I sigh in relief. I lock my door and I walk into my kitchen and I grab a cold-water bottle. I drown it instantly and I sigh as I feel refreshed.
"It's been so long since I ran. I have to start doing that more." I say as I feel energized.
I jog out of my kitchen and I run into my room. I throw my shoes in the closet and I drop my phone the bed. I take off my drenched shirt and pants and I toss them in the hamper. I grab a fresh pair of everything, and I walk over to my bathroom to shower.
I turn on my shower and the water hits tub gently. I place my fresh undergarments and clothes on the toilet cover, and I undress fully in my bathroom. I step into the shower and I wash my sweaty body. I pour a fruity smelling body wash into my towel and I wash myself all over. I then rinse myself off and I move into my sweaty hair was stuck to my face and neck. I reach down and I grab my strawberry scented conditioner in my hair, and I scrub my scalp viscously.
I wash my hair carefully not to get any soap in my eyes. I fill up water in my hands and then I pour on the front part of my head to make sure I was getting all the conditioner out.
I am finishing showering and I walk out of my shower as I turn it off. I stand on my black mat on the floor. I dry my body off, and I grab some comfortable clothes to put on. I put on some black underwear and no bra since I wasn't really about to go out again and I put on a black tank top and some big black sweat pants that hung off my hips a bit then I wrap another fresh towel on my shoulder so my hair could dry. I turn off my light and I walk towards my kitchen.
I grab an orange from the top of my fridge, and I start to peel it. I walk back into my living room as I peel the orange and I sit on the couch letting my wet hair move with the force of me sitting down. I bring my leg up, placing my foot on the couch and I bite into the orange. I start to hum the song I was practicing all day and then my doorbell rings.
I look at my door from where I am sitting.
"Huh? I wasn't expecting anyone- "
I frown and I stand up. I grab a random pencil from my coffee table, and I run at the door.
"IT BETTER NOT BE THAT GUY FROM EARILER WHO SAID HE WOULD FOLLOW ME HOME!" I think to myself as I charge at the door.
"I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU FOLLOWED ME HOME YOU BETTER PREPARE FOR CERTAIN DEATH!" I say as I yell at the person through my closed door to warn them of what is coming.
I grip the pencil tightly and I grab the door.
"PREPARE TO DIE!" I yell as I swing my door open.
I close my eyes and I swing my sharp pencil down. Suddenly, I feel a hand grab my wrist causing me to open my eyes and I look up at the person in front of me. A navy-blue suit is in front of me and the person has a nice build. My eyes trace up and I see he is also wearing a suit jacket that matches his pants and a white button up that was buttoned up halfway exposing his collarbone.
"Amy?" says a voice that sends a shock through my whole body.
I make eye contact with concerned green eyes and freeze as he holds my wrist from me penetrating him with my pencil.
"S-Sonic- "
"Wait, who followed you home?" Sonic asks and he looks behind him.
"Wh-what, how did- when did-
I look over his face and then I look back at the suit he was wearing.
"Yo… who was following you home? Are you okay- "
Sonic looks down at my legs and I look down as well. A small bruise is on my thigh and Sonic leans down and touches it. It stings a bit causing me to wince and Sonic stands quickly. The look in Sonic's face changes into protective mode and I feel myself shrink as I feel his aurora completely change.
"A m y." Sonic says in a deep serious tone.
"Ye-yes." I say as he continues to hold onto my wrist.
I drop the pencil on the ground as I am too focused on the giant before me.
"Who followed you home and why are you bruised?" Sonic asks and I jump at the sound of his voice.
"N-no one did- I went running and- and this guy hit on me and I said something rude back and a-nd he said he would follow me home- "
Sonic walks out of my apartment bringing me with him and he looks around, looking for the guy who hit on me.
Sonic turns back to me and his eyes are dark causing me to lean back.
"When and where." He says.
"W-well a while ago but I don't think they are there anymore- Plus, I don't think they really would have followed me home." I say and Sonic walks closer to me and then points at my thigh.
"What about this then."
"I-I- fell this morning whilemaking pancakes." I say laughing uncomfortably.
Sonic looks up to me and I blush as he still looks pissed. Sonic then walks past me and pulls me along with him. We walk back into my apartment and he locks the door. He drags me along and brings me into the living room. He sits me in a chair and then he walks away to my kitchen. I watch him confused and he comes back with a bag of ice and a cloth.
Sonic then kneels in he places the ice pack on my leg. I wince a bit and he remove and then places it on my leg softer than he did the first time. As he ices my thigh and I take the time and I look over the clothes he is in.
"Why are you- "
"Why didn't you answer your phone… again." Sonic asks.
"You called me?"
"Yeah, I did." He says sounded obviously annoyed.
I look around for my phone and I noticed I left it in my room. I look down to Sonic's face and he is looking at me waiting for an answer or an excuse.
"I- I must have left it in my room after I showered. Sorry, I'll go get it." I say as I stand up only for Sonic to lower me back down.
"I'm trying to ice you." Sonic says annoyed again and I frown at him.
I place my finger on his forehead as he looks at me.
"HEY. HEY. HEY WHERE WERE YOU? I CALLED AND TEXTED YOU TOO AND ITS ALMOST SUNDOWN AND YOU SHOW UP IN A SUIT!" I yell!
"I was with my mom." Sonic says and remove my finger from his face.
"Your mom? Wait- why are you in a suit?" I ask and Sonic blushes a bit and the readjust the ice pack on my leg.
"I was planning-
"NO WAIT! WHERE WERE YOU THE ENTIRE DAY! AND WHY ARE YOU IN A SUIT!" I yell again.
"I'm trying to tell you- "
"I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO SAY SOMETHING TO ME ALL DAY AND NOW YOU ARE TRYING TO YELL AT ME FOR LEAVING MY PHONE FOR A FEW MOMENTS!" I yell.
"I didn't yell at you- "
"NO, YES YOU DID!" I say placing my finger back on his forehead.
Sonic removes my finger from his forehead and then he stands up and steps back a bit, leaving the ice pack on my leg.
"I was planning my Mom's surprise birthday party." He says as he puts his hands in his pockets.
"Huh? "I say and Sonic leans back on the edge of my couch.
"Yeah, I was busy preparing things with Sonia, Manic and my stepdad. It took all day, but we finally got it started an hour ago." He says.
"Wait? It already started. Why… why are you here you should be there." I say and Sonic shrugs his arms.
"I don't know. It was starting to become a drag. I really didn't even want to go since me and my mom barely talk but my siblings insisted." He says as he looks down to his shoes.
"…A drag? How come." I ask and Sonic face goes to troubled.
"…well, maybe it's just the people there. My mom gained so many friends and she knows so much more rich people that I felt like it wasn't normal. They don't act normal. Plus… I missed you." Sonic says looking up slowly at me.
I blush and I stand up unnaturally. The ice falls onto the floor making Sonic look at it and his face goes back to annoyed. I step over the ice bag and I walk closer to him.
"I-I missed you too. Uh- "I say, and I straighten my arms and I bawl my fist.
"But- you should go back to your family." I say.
"Why."
"Well- It's an important night!" I say.
"I don't really feel like being there." Sonic says.
"It's really not the space I want to be in. I feel better away from the party. What if me and you just chilled here, and I ditch the party." Sonic says and he falls back onto my couch.
I frown and I look at the sky. The sky was turning orange and I follow the sunrays to the boy who was laying on my couch looking obviously stressed and tired. My eyes widen and I walk over to the couch as I got an idea.
"WHAT IF I CAME WITH YOU!?" I ask and Sonic's eyes open fast and he looks at me.
"… you would come?"
"Well, yeah! If it makes you feel better there!" I say.
Sonic blushes a bit and he get up from the couch and stands up.
"Amy- it's kind of a "high class party" everyone there are so stuck up and I barely want to be there. I don't think you would want to be there either- "
I grab Sonic by his shirt, and he looks at me.
"BUT! IF WE ARE THERE TOGETHER! WE COULD IGNORE ALL OF THAT!" I say and Sonic eyes sparkle softly.
I let go of his shirt and I point my hand to the ceiling.
"We are going to turn this party out!" I say and continues to look at me confused.
"What kind of party is it? Since it's a rich people party I am sure there is a dress code!" I say confidently.
"… yeah, its formal and you have to wear white and another color if you want- "
"ALRIGHT! GIVE ME 5 MINUTES!" I yell and I run off to my room leaving Sonic to watch me run quickly to my room.
I bust into my room and I pause and look on the floor to make sure nothing can attack me on the floor. The floor is clear, so I open my closet and I look around.
"White. White . White-" my eyes hit a dress Rouge lent me and I pull it out.
"EASY!" I yell and I take my clothes off and I put on the dress quickly.
The dress starts to hug on my tiny waist and hips as I put it on, and I grab some clear block heels, that I have never worn before.
I run to the bathroom and I close the door behind me. I grab some lip-gloss and I put it on my lips and look at my hair. My hair was semi- dry, but it gave off a sexy wet look.
"HAHA, EVEN MY HAIR IS PERFECTION AND I DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING TO IT!" I say to myself in the mirror.
I quickly sit down on the toilet cover and I put on my block heels one by one. I stand up and I grab the door. I run out of my bathroom and Sonic is sitting in the same spot. He slowly turns around and he his eyes go automatically to my dress.
I had on a satin white cream-colored spaghetti strapped dress that hugged my waist perfectly and it also stopped above my shin. Also, in the top part of my dress also had a cowl neck so it showed off my collar bone and a bit of my cleavage.
"How did you- "
"I TOLD YOU! NOW LET'S DO THIS!" I yell as I pump my hand up as I run in my heels.
I start to run to the door, and I stop as I don't hear Sonic behind me. I walk back in confusion and Sonic is still looking at me confused. I walk up to him and I grab his hand. He looks up at me in the eyes and then I pull him off the ledge of my couch. We start to walk towards the door, and I let Sonic's hand go as I lock my door.
I turn around and Sonic blushes and I look at him confused.
"What?" I ask him.
"N-nothing. You just look, so so so… perfect." Sonic says as he his eyes travel down from my face to my body.
I do a hair flip and snap my fingers at Sonic.
"I know! Now let's go!" I say as I walk to Sonic's car that was pulled up on the side.
I walk up to Sonic's door and I turn around to wait for him to unlock it. Sonic walks up beside me and I stand back a bit as he unlocks his door for me. He opens it and I smile at his nice gestor. I walk up to him and I still have to get on my tippy toes to kiss his cheek.
"Thank you!" I say as I sit in his car and he closes it for me.
Sonic then walks around to my side and he gets in the car and the closes it himself. Sonic turns on his car and I start to bounce up and down in my seat.
"Why are you so excited?" Sonic asks as he looks over to me, putting on his seatbelt.
"Hm… I don't know." I say as I look at the dress I had on.
"Maybe it's because I'm finally with you." I say as I put my seatbelt on, and I turn to Sonic.
He has a faint blush on his face, and I notice I left some lip-gloss on his face from kissing him on the cheek.
I move my hand to wipe his face and I smile as I can finally touch his face. I get the lip gloss of and then I place my elbow and I look at boyfriend's eyes as he looks back into mine.
"You are a lot quiet than usual." I say as I expected Sonic to say something.
Sonic laughs a bit and he puts his car in drive.
"I think I am too. Today has been… long." He says.
I nod my head and I shuffle back in my seat and look forward. We drive a bit and we hit a red light. The red light shines a bit through Sonic's tint on his car and I feel his hand go to my thigh. I look at it and I blush as I feel the tingles run through my body.
Sonic turns his body towards me, and I look at him.
"Give me a kiss." He asks me and I blush twice as hard.
"O-okay." I say and I lean into Sonic and I place my lips on his.
Sonic kisses me back and then moves back and smiles at me. He rubs his nose against mine. Sonic moves his hand from my thigh, and he puts his car in park at the red light.
"Also, I read your text before I showed up. I heard you studied Algebra on your own. I'm so proud." Sonic says as he grabs my face, he starts to plant kisses all around my face.
I giggle a bit as Sonic covers me in kisses and every kiss makes me smile bigger and bigger. Sonic then moves to my lips he kisses my lips more softly but longer and he brings my face in closer.
"Hey, I can't kiss your right if you are smiling so much." He says and he goes to kiss my cheek and then back to my forehead.
I notice the light turns green and I look away from it as Sonic kisses my neck suddenly.
"You shouldn't be kissing me all at all, haha! The light is green." I say and Sonic looks at it and shrugs.
"Well, I missed you a lot and you have on this dress that makes me want to take it off you so the light can wait." Sonic says making me laugh even more as he kisses me on my neck more.
"Haha, Sonic!" I say as he moves back over my face.
He kisses me on my cheek once more and then let's go of my face.
"Okay, Okay. I'll stop so we don't get pulled over." Sonic says and I laugh at him as he puts his car in drive.
Sonic takes off down the road for some minutes and he spends the times telling me about Manic and his friends. His story was very funny, and Sonic seemed a bit happy than the time I saw him when he appeared.
"I'm glad."
About 45 minutes later we passed Sonic hometown and we finally make it to his mother's new city. I gasp as I look at the big skyscrapers that shined brightly at night. There are also a lot people walking around this Sunday afternoon.
We drive out of the city area and we start to get on the interstate. Sonic speeds a bit on the interstate and then he takes an exit as soon as we get on it. We drive even longer and then Sonic pulls up to a gated community.
Sonic pulls in and a security woman walks out and looks at Sonic and I through the widnow. Sonic rolls his window down and the woman gasps.
"You are Bernadette's son! I'll open the door for you right away!" she says.
"Thanks."
Sonic rolls the window back up and then he waits for her to open the gates.
"Ooh, you and your mom must look a lot alike!" I say to Sonic and he nods his head.
"Yeah, I look exactly like her." He says in a weird tone.
Sonic drives through the gate and I continue to look at him.
"Did I ask something wrong?"
My question makes Sonic look at me.
"No, sorry for the way I said it." He says.
I continue to look at Sonic and then he turns left making me look up.
My mouth drops as we pull up until a long driveway that went around a pond with a huge fountain. The mansion was huge. Almost as big as our school building. The mansion was huge is basically looked like a castle. The shape of the house was in squares almost instead of the normal triangle shaped of a house but this one had plenty of windows and lights to show off the glory of the tan color exterior of the mansion. There were also perfect green shrubs cut on the sides of the house and some small trees around the driveway near the really expensive cars and from how big the house is.
I can tell there is a lot more to it just by the front of it.
I clench my dress as I my eyes go up and up and up as I look at the big mansion. There were multiple cars parked on the side and on the driveway as Sonic drove.
Sonic parks near a white expensive car and then he turns his car off. He looks at me and he sighs as he looks my dropped jaw.
"I- I didn't know it was- "
"This rich. Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous." Sonic says in a weird tone again making me look at him.
"Why do you keep sounding like that." I ask him and Sonic shrugs his shoulders.
"Let's go." He says as he gets out of his car.
I open my door following his lead and Sonic is there to take my hand. I grab his hand and I close the door behind me. Sonic locks the door and we start to walk down the driveway. My hair blows in the warm wind causing me to look up at the sky as we walk. I look over to Sonic to see that he looks annoyed and I squeeze his hand to make him look down at me.
"Hey…" I say and Sonic starts to blush, and he looks away.
"What's going on." I ask and Sonic doesn't respond.
"Sonic." I ask and Sonic starts to frown, and I do the same as Sonic is becoming stubborn with me.
"SONIC!" I yell and Sonic blushes and looks down to me.
"Tell me!"
"N-Nothing is going on. I told you I hate being here and my mom is- Well she acts different. So, it's weird and that why I left because I felt like a guest in my own mother's home." Sonic says and I slow down a bit as his facial expression goes to sad for a second.
"Is it because- "
"Wait… I shouldn't bring that up. I shouldn't bring anything up from his past because I think he is still trying to get over that almost every day."
"Never mind." I say softly as I start to walk with his pace again.
"What were you going to say?"
"Nothing important. Let's just try to get the positive energy going! Maybe we won't even have to walk to her!" I say.
"No, we are. Because look." Sonic says as he points forward.
I look ahead and I see an older woman in tight black dress holding a glass drink in her hand. She is talking to people outside of her grand entrance as well and whatever she says makes all of them laugh.
Sonic hand squeezes mine and I look up at him as we make our way over.
"If she says anything rude. Just ignore it. If she asks you anything than try your best to give a short answer. If it's about us, then I'll answer. Just… try not to talk to her at all if possible." Sonic says lowly and I nod my head not really knowing what to expect.
Sonic mom laughs again, and I watch her shiny white teeth sparkle in the night.
"Watch what I say?... But his mom looks so… friendly?" I think to myself.
"And I end up here in a custom-made dress and my husband is still in his pajamas!" Everyone laughs on que at her story and she laughs as well.
We walk closer and Sonic grip on my hand tightens making me look at him.
"Oh, and here are my youngest babies! Sonic dear where did you go!" she says as we walk up the steps.
"Too get some air for a second." Sonic says back naturally.
"Baby! That was more than a second! You had me thinking you left forever!" His mom says and he walks up to him.
She continues to look at Sonic and not at me once making me watch her closely. Suddenly she rips his hand from mine, and I stop walking so I wouldn't run into her.
"Mom- "
"Everyone this my son! My youngest baby! Don't we look so much alike!" she says pushing Sonic farther away from me.
Everyone starts to talk to Sonic, and I stand in back a bit as Sonic blushes and talks to the people he never met before. I blush a bit as his mom didn't see me at all and I hold the hand that was ripped from Sonic. I take a step back as I watch them talk and I feel completely out of the people surrounding me. My eyes soon get hooked onto my green ones and it's not Sonic's it's his mom.
She stares at me and then she walks through her friends making them watch her walk away over to me. His mother is very tall in a way which makes me understand where Sonic and everyone else got their height from.
"And who are you?" she asks, and I blush hard as the confident tall woman stands before me.
I open my mouth to speak but nothing comes out.
"I don't remember inviting you here. Are you lost or something- Wait are you one of Fredricks wives?" she asks, and I blush even harder.
"W-wi wives?-"
"Mom." Sonic says coming back to my side.
His mom looks at Sonic and then her eyes go back to mine. A look in her eyes change and so does Sonic's. She then slowly looks back at me and Sonic grabs my hand and stands in front of me again. Almost like he was trying to protect me from her.
"This is Amy. My… girlfriend." He says and his grip tightens on my hand again.
The entrance area goes silent as her rich friends watches the scene. Sonic's mom clasps her hands together and she puts on a big smile that even creeps me out a bit.
"You have a girlfriend now?! My. MY. So many surprises tonight!" she says in a fake happy tone.
Her eyes move to mine and they make me feel a lot smaller as her eyes don't have a hint of kindness.
"My name is Bernadette, so glad to meet you! I didn't know you existed until I saw you standing here looking out of the ordinary!" she says, and I smile awkwardly.
"What did that even mean?"
"Nice to meet you as well." I say and I move my hand out for her to shake it, but I hesitate as I remember what Sonic said.
"Okay, I'm going to go show her around- "
"Wait. Wait, now! We were just about to eat. I know you must be starving, Amy." She says as she looks at me.
"Well- "
"Okay, we will meet you there." Sonic says obviously annoyed.
"Okay sweetie! Let's all go!" she says to her rich friends and they all lead the way.
They walk off a bit and Sonic sigh and starts to walk inside the house. I gasp as I see more rich people in their rich outfits, and I cling onto Sonic a bit more as I see some older men staring at me. The house is a deep red but is lit up perfectly from the big chandelier hanging from the ceiling. There are also curved stairs that go up to the 2nd floor that had people up there as well. Drinking and talking about the party as an older woman plays the piano that was in the front entrance as we walked in. There were also pictures of Sonic and his family on the wall as well as we passed them.
More random people stare at me and I look away quickly and I press my body more on Sonic. Sonic pulls me along and notices my discomfort quickly and he moves his arm around my back, guiding me to the backyard. I look around the perfect backyard that had no grass as we stepped on the grey arched stone. There was a huge area of tables and a DJ all the way in the back. Everyone walked around in their nice dresses and suits as they ate and causally danced to the music that was being played. There was also a pool that was lit up in pinks and whites as people walked it and sat down at the tables near it. Sonic and I start to walk down the aisle that was surrounded by more perfect bushes and pretty lampposts as we make our way past tables and guests as Sonic takes us to the one that was closest to the front. We finally make it to the front, and I notice some people are already sitting there. My eyes lock onto green hair and a loud laugh making me smile.
"HEY MANNY!" I yell over the people who already talking to him.
Manic looks over and his eyes go wide and he stands up.
"Amy! My little sister!" Manic says and I run to him and I hug him tightly and so does me.
Manic and I spin in a circle as we both missed each other. I laugh hard and so does Manic as he lets me go and looks at me.
"You look gorgeous! You see, every time I tell Sonic that he has to stop being a pussy or he really would have missed out on you." I laugh and I nod my head agreeing with Manic.
"Thanks." Sonic says sarcastically as he walks up behind me.
"Where is Sonia?" I ask.
"She is coming in a second. She said she had to fight the DJ to change the music." Manic says and I laugh as I think about what she could be saying to the DJ.
"Makes sense." I say and I turn around to look at Sonic.
He still seemed kind of ticked off making me pout and then Sonic turns his head and pulls out a seat for me. I thank him and I sit down and then he sits down beside me. I hear Manic go back to conversating to his friends and I turn my full attention on the blue hedgehog who looked like he would rather be anywhere else. I poke his stomach and he look at me.
"Hi." I say and he nods his head at me and looks off into the party.
I move my hand and I grab his chin making him look at me.
"Hm?" he asks as he looks into my eyes.
"Relax." I say as I move my hand from his chin and to his big broad shoulders.
I rub on them and Sonic sighs and he moves his body towards me some more.
"I'm trying." He says as his annoyed tone comes back.
"You sound a bit irritated" I say trying to see what is going through his head.
"Well, she did just pull me away from you and she said you look like you are starving. Do you see what I mean? Who says that to a person?" Sonic asks and he shakes his head and he looks around the party.
"Hehe, yeah that was kind of rude. But it's whatever because I only came here for my cute boyfriend." I say leaning close to Sonic's face.
Sonic eyes look at mine and I smile at him getting him to chuckle at me.
"Awwe. A smile, such a hottie." I say as I touch his face and he shake his head and blushes as he notices I am trying to take his mind off of his mom.
"Hehe, why are you being so bashful." I say as making Sonic look at me.
"I'm not acting bashful." He says to me making me laugh because he was being shy.
"Can I get a kiss, then? Pretty please. It's been so long since you kissed me." I say and Sonic laughs again and then he eyes my lips.
"It's been probably an hour." He says and I shrug my shoulder and I lean close to his face and leans towards me as well.
"An hour feels like it's been 4 years." I say softly as he is close enough for me to talk that soft.
"I'm sorry then." He says and he kisses my lips softly and I do the same.
Sonic moves away from the kiss and I open my eyes slowly as I definitely wanted the kiss to last a bit longer.
"Just one more." I say as I try to steal another kiss.
Sonic moves back in close to kiss me again and we are interrupted by a big plate getting pushed into our faces. I look up to see Sonic's mom arm and I feel the energy completely shift. I look up at her eyes and she is looking at Sonic with a stern look and Sonic turns around from me and he faces forward.
"Dinner is served!" she says as she places the plate down in front of us.
The plate of food had delicious looking food on them, and I guessed she made the food based on how the tray says "Bernadette's cuisine". She had a plate seafood and vegetables with a silver bowl of butter on the side. Also, waiters were coming around and placing cups down besides us making me feel like a princess or a queen of some sort.
She then grabs more plates from a silver cart, and she hands it out to Manic and his friends as well. I watch her as she passes out food everyone our table and then she sits down in front of us. Her eyes hit mine and she smiles at me making me smile at her as well.
"Sorry I'm late! I had to talk to Phillip for a moment!" says a light brown hedgehog that was around the table quickly on the side, where Sonic's mom was.
"It's alright, sweetie. Come eat with us!" his mom says and the light brown hedgehog kisses Sonic mom.
"Oh, maybe that his step-dad."
His eyes move to Sonic's and then it moves to mines. The light brown hedgehog eyes brighten as he looks at me and then looks back to Sonic.
"Sonic! Who is this?" he asks.
"Amy. My girlfriend." He says quietly and his tone makes the stepdad laugh awkwardly and then the stepdad reaches his hand out to me.
"Marcus. Nice to meet and thank you for coming! I'm Sonic's step-dad." He says in a nice tone.
"He seems normal" I think to myself as I take his hand and shake it.
"Amy Rose. Nice to meet you as well- "
"Dig in everyone!" She says cutting me off and everyone starts to eat.
I release Sonic's stepdad hand and Sonic step smiles at me apologetically and then he looks at Sonic for moment before he starts eating.
I look at the food and then I look over to see Sonic hasn't moved or said anything, but he is staring at his mom angrily. I look at his mom to see if she has noticed but she hasn't so I tap his leg from under the table and he looks at me.
"Let's eat." I say trying to calm him down a bit.
I grab the tongs on the silver trays, and I give Sonic some food first and I then I give myself some. Sonic doesn't respond to me giving him food and he starts to eat a piece some sautéed vegetables. I watch him carefully and then I look away from him as I eat myself. The food was pretty good, but I barely had an appetite because Sonic's slow eating was making me… cautious.
I drink the punch that was served to us and I hear Sonic's mom clear her voice.
"Amy!" she says making me stop drinking.
"Y-yes." I say as I place my drink down.
"Tell me about yourself! I am guessing you and Sonic go to the same college?" she says, and I clear my throat.
"Yes, we met at school. I'm majoring in music and I am the leader- "
"Music! Wow, you know Sonic loves music. Don't you Sonic." She says and Sonic doesn't respond.
Sonic continues to eat, and I clap my hands together to move the conversation on.
"Yes. I did know. He told me how you used to teach him how to sing-Cook, I mean! You have made a great impact on him." I say but then I remember that Sonic told me not to give her a long answer.
"He does! Makes me miss him being around sometimes because out of all his siblings he does the best job at that." His stepdad says.
"Ouch. I can cook but sure. Yep, Sonic cooks great." Manic says getting in on the conversation.
I smile at Manic and then his mother giggles to herself.
"Thank you so much, but I don't think I impacted him that much. Sonic is definitely his own person and some of the choices he has made are for sure choices I would never make." She says and I gulp.
"Why- how did this go so left?!"
The table goes quiet and I blush as some people look at me and then to Sonic. Sonic continues to eat, and I bite my lip as I try to think of way to change the conversation.
"Wow, you guys are eating without me?" A voice says and I turn around.
A-Amy?! Oh my god!" Sonia says and hugs me from behind.
"Thank god she came! Maybe we can forget she even said that."
"H-Hi." I say and Sonia looks at me confused.
"Hey?" Sonia looks at Sonic who is still eating.
"Hey, babie boy! You came back even though I told you not to leave." Sonia says threateningly and Sonic shrugs his shoulders.
"Sorry." He says in a low tone making Sonia and I look at each other.
Sonia catches onto what's going on and she sits beside me and in front of Manic. A plate gets placed in front of Sonia and she thanks the waiters that were catering the event. The table goes quiet and I look at my plate and I place a piece of juicy crab in my mouth. I chew slowly and Sonic sighs as he stops eating.
"Done eating?" his mom asks.
"I really wasn't even hungry." He says and his mom looks up at him.
"Then why did you eat so much?"
"I don't know. Probably to ignore trying to have any conversation with you." Sonic says a bit loud making some people look down at them.
"Oh... fuck" Manic says under his breath and he drops his napkin on his plate.
"Really, now. Maybe if you would listen to something, I say maybe you wouldn't make such harsh decisions and almost ruin your college career." She says.
"Is she talking about Sally?"
"What harsh decisions could your parenting help anyone at this table? Hm, and what are you referring to? Elaborate." Sonic says lifting his head up and looking his mom in the eye.
"Sonic, do I really have to elaborate. For Chaos sake I hope you told this new girl you are talking too about what happened but if I was her I would be very concerned- "
Sonic slams his hands on the table making everyone plate shake. I jump as well as I look at him and he stands up slowly.
"Tell her what. Bring it up. Bring it up like you do every time mom. Say it." Sonic says raising his voice.
Manic stands up and walks over to Sonic who standing up.
"Hey, let's just go take a walk-"
"Don't touch me, Manic." Sonic says and then Manic sighs and stands back a bit.
"Say it." Sonic says leaning over the table to his unbothered mom who was looking at him.
"Say what? A grown man with self-destructive traits that only push away the ones closest to him and then the people who try to help you push away because they did something small to you, that you didn't like so now you are just a boy, matter of fact not a grown man, but a boy who continues to run away from his problems by trying to sweep them under the rug until you find something to put on top of the rug which is probably this little girl right here." His mom says and she looks at me.
"Has he even told you about what he did? I can't blame him if he hasn't because I would be ashamed as well and wouldn't tell a single soul." She says and the table goes silent again.
"Honestly and every time we have this conversation, you know I am right Sonic. You know I am right every time because you haven't fixed a single thing about yourself-"
"Mom, you don't know shit about me. How you going sit here and judge me when practically left all of us to live with our stepdad? You don't know shit about any of your children." Sonic says and some people at the table gasp.
"Stop looking for the old me, it's so irritating." Sonic says and I look at him careful as he clenches his fist in anger.
"Maybe- Maybe I should say something- "
"How about you talk about how you left your kids to get married to some rich ass man who has her sitting here with fake ass people! You don't even act like this-"
"You are right. You right Sonic. The only thing you are right about." She says and she starts to stand up as well.
"I failed as a mother because my son was the cause of a little girl's death because he is too IRRESOLUTE, WEAK-WILLED, and a spoiled brat to SEE that his harsh decisions cause too much damage!" she says.
I slowly look to Sonic and he has a hurt expression on his face.
"Now, look at you! You think we see a new reborn Sonic or something. Everything time we look at you we think about that girl! You do realize, that right? Nothing has changed about you Sonic, nothing-
"Mom stop!" says Sonia and I look at Sonia.
"You know what… maybe if you were there. Something would have changed but you were too BUSY FUCKING SOME RICH MAN SO WE COULD HAVE A HOUSE OVER OUR HEAD." Sonic yells and then takes some steps back.
"What an idiotic thing to say. When everything I have done has done no harm to anyone until you created this mess. A spoiled brat is all you are Sonic, and you are to stubborn to see that."
"Oh, and how depressing you are! Mom, everything you done has ruined the bond we all had at that house back at Mobius! They don't want to say it because they want you to move on from dad leaving us and left us without a warning to fix yourself but what about us!" Sonic yells and tears prick in his eyes.
"So, me leaving? Causes you to hurt the people around you?! Do not try to put me in the blame of what happened because that was all you! What happened to the old you that would never have done that?!" His mom says getting a bit angrier.
"Honey how about we talk about this somewhere private- "
"… right and here you go ASKING THE SAME QUESTION! I hate when you ask me what happened to the old me. He is dead mom! Dead because people like you killed it!" Sonic says loudly and he turns away and storms off.
"Typical." She says and she picks up her glass of wine.
I stand up shakily and I start to follow him.
"Sonic! Wait." Says Manic but I place my hand his shoulder.
"It's okay. I'll get him." I say to Manic quietly as he was about to go after his brother, and I hurry to run towards Sonic.
I walk carefully trying to dodge people walking past Sonic and I shuffle past them. Sonic makes a right out of the big backyard venue and he opens the white fence and swings it open angrily. My feet hit the grass as I walk through the white fence as well. I watch Sonic walk angrily and I feel sad as I don't even know what to say.
It starts to get dark as we make it deeper in the land and I slow down as Sonic fades in the dark a bit.
"S-Sonic!" I yell at him as he walks further into the night.
He doesn't stop and I look around at the darkness. I close my eyes and I run through the darkness and I see light through my eye lids I open them, and I look back at the darkness I just ran through. I turn back around, and Sonic is still walking but he is going over a bridge. I notice that she has another big pond on the side of her house.
Sonic continues to walk fast, and I try to keep up with him.
"Sonic, wait!" I say and he ignores me again.
I frown and I reach down and I take off my heels. My feet hit the warm stone bridge and I start to run towards Sonic full speed.
I run in front of him and I stop him as I spread my arms out. Sonic doesn't look at me and he is looking down at his feet. Sonic looks off from me and I bring my arms back together.
"Sonic… can you look at me?" I ask softly and Sonic folds his arms and leans over the bridge.
I watch him from his back, and I feel sad as he wouldn't speak or even look at me. I walk up to him and I gently place my hand on his back. I start to rub it softly and I Sonic sighs.
"You were right. I see why you wanted to just stay at my place. Sorry, I thought me being here would be any better." I say and Sonic doesn't say anything again.
The words his mother said runs through my head and I shake my head in disagreement.
"Sonic, everything she said was wrong. You have changed and I don't look at you from what happened in the past. I think you are better than how you use to be." I say and Sonic continues to stay silent.
I try to look at his face and he turns more away from me. I touch the back of his neck and I try to get him to look at me.
"Can you please look at me. Sonic, please I just want you to talk. You are very mad, and you can't just keep that all inside." I say and Sonic hand clenches.
He slowly looks over at me and his face isn't even angry anymore, he just looks sad. I look over his face and Sonic looks at my face. He has tiny tears in his eyes as he waits for me to say something, but nothing comes to my mind. I step up on the bridge and I set down on the edge of the rail of the bridge. I pull him over and I bring into a hug. Sonic rests his face on my shoulder and I rub his back as I lean my head on his head. His arms come around my body as Sonic breathes softly on my shoulder.
We sit like this for a moment and I move his face back to see that he still has the same pained expression.
"What are you thinking? Hm? I ask.
Sonic looks up and then he looks back down to me. He opens his mouth to speak but he closes his mouth as he seems to get angry again. I place hands on his face, and he looks back to me.
"Hey, I'm here. You can tell me. Don't blow up in there." I say as I rub his face.
Sonic starts to look down and he looks like he is thinking more and more about what just happened. I wait silently and Sonic finally takes a deep breath.
"Does… does everyone really still see me that way?" he asks.
"What? Sonic, no. And if they do who cares? They aren't in your life or even speaking to you. It doesn't even matter what they think." I say and Sonic shakes his head.
"This is why… I didn't want to come back. This is every time. Maybe I should have thrown that entire tray of food at her." He says.
"Heh, she would have deserved that." I say and Sonic leans his head back on my shoulder.
"Amy…"
"Yeah?"
"I'm… not the same. And I hope you don't think that I'm how I use to be because I'm not. I'm not-"
I grab Sonic face and he looks embarrassed now.
"Sonic. I would never think of you that way. Stop."
"I know but-"
"SONIC!" I yell and Sonic looks at me in the eyes.
"I WOULD NEVER THINK OF YOU THAT WAY. You changed! You told me you feel like you changed, and you have! Please don't backtrack you have come so far." I say and Sonic nods his head.
"Forget your mom. Only things that matter the people who really care about you." I say softly and kiss his forehead.
"Please stop." I say as I look back to his eyes.
Sonic nods his head and he look up at me.
"You are right. I'll stop. I just need to get out of my head." Sonic says I nod my head agreeing with him.
"You aren't perfect Sonic and I'm not either. But I won't give up on you, ever because I know you are trying to be better all the time. Everything she said was wrong about you. She doesn't know anything about you!" I say as I look at him.
Sonic blushes a bit and then he smiles softly. Sonic grabs my hands from my face and he looks down at his hands.
"I'm glad I brought you here… with me." Sonic says and I smile
"I'm glad I can be here for you as well." I say and I lean down to Sonic face.
Sonic looks at mine and I kiss him softly on the lips. Sonic kisses me back and move back from each other.
"But, one thing I wish you wasn't was on this bridge edge, its very dangerous." He says and I laugh a bit.
"Is it?" I ask and I stand up on the edge of the bridge swiftly.
"A-Amy! That's too high, come back down." Sonic says and I start to walk on the edge of the bridge.
I hold my arms out and I walk across the bridge and Sonic follows me carefully and he raises his arms up to catch me if I were to fall. Sonic reaches for my dress and I dodge him swiftly by jumping out of the way and I run down the edge of the bridge.
"Amy, stop. If you fall into the water, you might get hurt." Sonic says and I laugh as we are at the top of the bridge.
"You think so?" I ask as I look down at the water below me.
The water looks kind of deep and, but it sparkles beautiful in the night sky with the help of the lights added on the bridge. I turn to Sonic who looks like he disagrees with everything that I am doing, and he wants me to get down immediately.
"You should come up here with me!" I ask and Sonic shakes his head "no" and continues to reach for me.
"Why not? Are you afraid?" I ask and I lean my leg over the bridge where the water was.
"No, I'm not afraid but I am afraid that you might fall in." Sonic says looking at my leg.
I stare at Sonic for a moment and I stick my tongue at him.
"Scaredy cat!"
Sonic growls and I giggle as I start to run down the bridge myself. Sonic follows me of course as I run further down the bridge. Suddenly, I stop as I look at the gorgeous garden ahead of me. I slow down and as I take in the tulips and many various colors of flowers hiding from the rich people on the other side of the bridge. I also notice that there is a great lake surrounded by the garden that was on land, that was a circle shape and I look out into the water to see another rich person's backyard across the lake.
"Wow-"
I suddenly I feel a hand on my hip, and I get tossed over a shoulder. I look down to see that I had been captured by Sonic, I laugh as he carries me on his shoulder.
"There we go." He says as he carries me.
I hang upside down and I pout as Sonic carries me towards the flowers. Sonic finally makes it off of the bridge and he places me down on the soft grass. I look down to my feet as I feel the grass and then my eyes come in contact with the flowers.
"Can you stop doing dangerous things now-"
I take off into the field of flowers and I run through the pretty colors. I turn around and I notice that I kicked up some of the petals and now it's was a storm of floating petals of all colors. I laugh and I run through the petals as they float back down to the ground. I fall back carefree in the soft comfort of flowers and I lay down.
I slowly open my eyes and I turn my head to see that Sonic is just watching me. I lean up and I swing my legs around and I open my arms big for him since he was such a bigger person than me. Sonic shakes his head and smiles he starts to walk over to me.
I open my arms up bigger as he walks up to me and I smile as he looks down at me. Sonic slowly leans starts to lean forward and my eyes widen as he heads down towards me. I squeal and Sonic lands in between my legs his head rests on my stomach as I fall back as well from his weight.
"Haha, Sonic! You did not just fall on me." I say as I lean up and Sonic chuckles deeply and he wraps his arms around my waist and he rests his head on my stomach.
"I thought that is what you wanted me to do." He says and I laugh.
I move my hands and I start to run my hand through his hair making him sigh and he moves his arms around my waist and brings me in closer to him. As I rub his hair I look up at the sky as the moon watches us and its cloud friends.
A single yellow petal flies over my face and I watch as it goes over my head. I look at it upside down and then I feel move his head causing me to look down at him. His eyes look into mine and I look at his to see if he wanted to talk about something. He doesn't talk but instead he gets up and starts to climb over my body and I blush as his face gets closer to mine.
Sonic's shadow slowly starts to cover my body as his body is over mine, shielding it from the moonlight. My eyes come up as his eyes finally come with level with mine. My eyes then move to his shirt that wasn't buttoned all the way and he clears his throat making my eyes come back to his.
"H-huh?" I ask and Sonic shrugs his shoulders as he looks over me.
"Is there something you want to tell me?" I ask and Sonic shakes his head "no".
"Haha, so are you just staring at me then?" And Sonic nods his head "yes" making me roll my eyes.
"That's creepy." I say as I turn over on my stomach with Sonic still on top of me and I look at a flower that wasn't being crushed by my body.
I touch the petals of a random flower and Sonic moves from over my body and lays beside me making me look over at him.
"How is that creepy?" He asks and then touches the flower I am touching his fingers grazes against mine.
"Because your big body was over mine and you are just looking over my face like a creep."
"Well, you are staring at this flower, admiring its beauty. So, doesn't that make you a creep too?" he asks, and I laugh.
"No, it doesn't because it isn't alive."
"Oh, really. Because I thought plants were alive" Sonic says sounded amused.
"Well, they are- but they aren't people- "
Sonic plucks the flower from the ground and I stop talking as I watch him rip the flower from the ground.
"S-Sonic you-"
"Well, it isn't alive anymore." Sonic says and he starts to get up.
"Hey! Why did you do that! Give it back you kidnapper!" I say as I get up to follow Sonic who was walking away quickly.
He still has the flower in his hand, and I reach for it as he isn't looking then he raises the flower way over my head to where I couldn't reach. I jump for it and Sonic moves his hand away from my gasp and continues to walk around as I try to get it back.
"Sonic!" I say as I frown that he is taller than me.
Sonic turns around to me and laughs as he sees I am no match. He then places the flower behind his back and the he stops. He does something behind his back and then pulls out both of his hands towards, but they are in fists.
"If you pick the right hand. I'll give you your flower back." He says and I frown at his idea.
"You are crushing it!" I say as I reach out for both of them and then he steps back.
"Nope, pick one." He says and I sigh, and I look at his closed fists held out to me.
I look at the right one and then I look at the left. I fold my arms as I try to tell which hand it could be in.
"Can-Can I have a hint?" I ask and Sonic shakes his head no and he laughs at me.
"Come on. Just pick and find out." He says and I look away from him and to his hands carefully.
I touch his right hand and he drops his left hand behind him making my heart jump.
"N-No! No wait I meant the other one!" I say and Sonic switches his hands and does the same thing with the left.
"So, you think it's' this one?" he asks, and I look at it and I stare at it.
"Yes, No. Wait no." I say changing my mind and then Sonic switches hand again and he shows me his right again.
I stare at it and I bring my hands together as I try to think.
"One out of two chances. Come on, just pick one based off your gut." He says and I blush as I can't decide.
"Can you at least give me one hint!" I ask again and Sonic laughs at me and looks at his left and then his right.
"He-He looked at his left hand first so it must be that one!" I think to myself as I think I have him figured out.
"Okay you can get a hint- "
"NO, I DON'T NEED IT!" I yell and Sonic looks at me surprised and he starts to laugh.
"Ooh, she is confident. So, which one cutie?" he asks stepping closer to me.
"LEFT!"
Sonic nods his head and he move his right arm behind him.
"You sure?" he says, and I nod my head quick.
"Heh, okay. Close your eyes and open up your hand." He says and I do it quickly as I am super positive that it was the flower.
I close my eyes and I hold out my hand. I feel Sonic's fist go to mine and he lets it go and something cold touches my hand. I slowly open my eyes as Sonic hand moves away from mine.
I stare at the sparkly circular bracelet in my hand and as its faint colors of pink, blue, orange and white pearls blend together like a faint rainbow of light sherbet colors. There is also a charm attached to it and I notice it's a small gold heart. It reflects in the moonlight as I look at it.
I look up to Sonic and he blushes a tiny bit.
"What… what is this? This isn't the flower- "I stop talking as Sonic takes it from my hand and he attaches it to my wrist.
"I saw this, yesterday while I was doing things with Manic and his friends and since I knew I wasn't going to see you that day when I promised… I saw this bracelet and it reminded me of you." He says as he finished hooking it onto me.
"The softness of the colors reminded me of how light you are in my life when things were just starting to get really bad… and I felt I don't tell you enough how much you help me push past my past for a better future."
I look at it in the moonlight and then I look up to Sonic.
"It's, pretty right? He asks grabbing my wrist as he looks at it on me.
I blink softly as I look at the bracelet and I feel my eyes start to feel warm. My lip quivers as I look away from my bracelet to Sonic who was looking at me.
"Oh, shit. No, haha. I wasn't trying to make you cry." Sonic says bringing me into a hug.
I blink once as Sonic hugs me and a tear leaks out of my eye. I try to open my mouth to say something, but nothing comes out as I feel the bracelet move on my wrist. Sonic leans up from the hug but he moves his hand to my lower back and he uses his free hand to wipe my eyes.
"Haha, Amy. Baby I'm sorry. Hahaha, say something." He says as he wipes my tears and he laugh at my reaction.
I shake my head no as more tears run down my face. I look down to my new bracelet again and I feel my face got hot as I turn my wrist around, and I look at the gold heart attached to it. I take a gasp of air as I continue to cry and Sonic laughs.
"I didn't know how else to give you it since you take gifts and things a little differently but maybe this way wasn't the best." He says as he wipes more of my tears.
He brings me back into a hug and he rubs my back as I try to come back to earth. I wipe my own eye this time and I look up at Sonic.
"N-N-No one has e-ever bought me a br-br- bracelet before." I say as I cry and Sonic kisses my forehead and comforts me.
"Do you like it?" he asks.
"I love it, Sonic. I-"
I start to cry all over again and Sonic smiles at me and I hug him this time. Sonic hugs me back and I sniff my nose as I look down to my arm with the bracelet.
"Well, I'm glad you like it." He says and he leans my chin up.
Sonic leans down and he kisses my lips making me kiss him back. Sonic pecks my lips twice and he laughs at me as he notices some tears were still falling.
"Th-th thank you." I say as I try to stop crying.
"Anything for you."
