Before the story starts. I just wanted to address something haha.

This story is not meant to be positive obviously and it isn't going to get 'sweet' or 'heartwarming'. This is meant to be uncomfortable and OBVIOUSLY NOT OKAY. I have never said cheating is okay, but I am writing in the POV of someone who has cheated.

Just give the story a chance to boil, its only chapter three.

So, if you are new here then I do write uncomfortable stuff and sometimes heartwarming but this story not one of them.

Enjoy though! Because this story is just for fun, and I wanted to write about something toxic for once lol. And it's not that I don't like Sally LOL I'm just a hardcore SonicxAmy fan. That's it lol.

Feel free to continue to review if you want! I enjoy all the opinions about this story because it is problematic and it gets even worse as it goes on so I can't blame anyone for thinking how they think. This story is meant for readers and the audience to somehow cheer on Sonic even though his actions are terrible.

But just another reminder…THIS STORY IS MEANT TO BE UNCONFORTABLE AND OBVIOUSLY A WRONG THING TO DO.

Enjoy reading!

SONIC

I wake up slowly from my alarm and I turn on the couch and see that it was already 7am.

"I'll never be a morning person."

I stand up and yawn heavily and I slowly get on my feet and walk upstairs. I walk to my son's bedroom, and he was still fast asleep. I sit on his bed and move his blue hair to the side and his eyes open.

"Oh… sorry Jules. I was just checking on you." I whisper and he blinks heavily and yawns.

"Sleepies…" he says and falls back to sleep, and I smile at him. I tuck him back in and keep the door open just in case if he were to call out for us and I carefully open the bedroom door.

The room was dark, and I see Sally's silhouette on the bed under the covers. I stare at the empty spot behind her. I missed laying my bed and with her but there was no need for me to think about this.

I go to my closet and change into an olive-green button up and some beige pants and some brown dress shoes. I was feeling slightly colorful today and as I brush my teeth and face, spray some cologne on myself and check my fit for the day, I walk back out and I see that Sally was looking at me this time.

"Good morning." I whisper and she waves at me and looks at my outfit.

"Have a great day at work." She whispers and sits up on the bed. Sally only had on shirt with some panties, and I look back to her face.

"I… will. Um…"

"Should I even try to kiss her… or at least a hug- "

"Are you leaving? It's almost time." She reminds me and I look at the clock and I was a little over than we I usually leave, and I start walking backwards.

"Yeah, I should go. I will see you later tonight." I say and Sally stands up and approaches me. My heart pounds slightly and her arm reaches out to me and then the lights turn on. She backs away from me and I notice she only did that to turn the lights on.

"Sonic?' she asks since I was just standing here and thinking that something was finally going to happen, but it didn't, so I walked out.

"Sorry, just tired! I'll see you when I get back!" I yell and I run over to Jules room and he was still sleeping and I kiss him on his head.

"I'll be back." I whisper and I jog out to my car.

I sit on my car and turn the key but then as I did so I started to feel stupid.

"You really thought she was going to hug you?... What was I thinking?" I shake my head and drive to work.

I drive into my CEO parking spot, and I already see… pink hair. My eyes move to the clock, and it was 7:50 so it made me wonder how long she had been here. I gather my things and walk to the entrance slowly and Ms. Rose had a briefcase in her right hand and a coffee in the other. Her outfit was bright once again, but she had on an orange dress with a gold clippie to hold her pink hair back.

"Good morning." I say from afar and she looks up and smiles.

"Good morning, Mr. Hedgehog! I have your coffee!" She hands it too me and I forgot I even said that.

Part of telling her my coffee order was a joke so I couldn't believe she really did it.

"Thanks… You are here very early? Trying to impress me?" I ask and Ms. Rose snorts as I unlock the door.

"I think I have already done that since you hired me after asking less than ten questions about myself."

Her comment makes me scoff and I hold the door open for her and she walks in but turns around to wait for me so she could follow me.

"Maybe I hired you for a different reason, Ms. Rose."

"Like what?" she asked, and her wedges click on the floor as I open another door into our main office, and we pass the office boxes and Cream desk at the front.

"Maybe I hired you to get closer to my enemy. Your old boss Mr. Simpson."

"If you did then I wouldn't care. I am at your use after all so anything you need to know I will gladly help." Ms. Rose says and that makes me laugh loudly.

"You are something Ms. Rose! I thought you were loyal. If I ever were to fire you then would you go behind my back and tell other companies my secrets to become successful?"

We stop at her new desk that she doesn't know that's hers and I wait for her response.

"No. I didn't like Mr. Simpson as much as I like you. You are very welcoming and charming." Ms. Rose says, and I laugh but then words don't come to my head after she called me… charming.

"Um… yeah. Uh- This is your desk. Right down the hall from mine." I say and she gasps and touches the brown desk that went around like a 'j'. She had multiple cabinets, work phone, and apple computer with my important information on it and for the company and room for her own stuff.

"Wow! This is close to your office! This is very nice. I had a cubicle at my other job but having a desk out in the open is great. Thank you again for this position, Mr. Hedgehog." I watch Ms. Rose place her belongs down and turn on the computer and she notice that it didn't turn on.

"It's unplugged? How mad were when you fired your other assistant?' she asks and bends over.

"You have no… idea." I say as her orange dress rises slightly and I look away not to be rude and then the computer turns on and she smiles and looks at me.

"Where are we starting!?" she asks, and I start walk with her following me and I open my office.

"What I do every day and how you can incorporate yourself in that. Small tasks, taking calls, checking emails, scheduling my meetings and anything that is small but important. But first I will tell you everything we do for the week and new goals we reach as a team." I say and I show her the planner I fixed from Espio never doing it and she looks at it and her eyes study it quickly.

"Mondays we talk about last week's goals and add them into this week's goals. Usually, it takes us about three weeks to get a project done but after Texas being squashed then we are going to held back of month from trying to get more states, but our next goal is Missouri. Slightly closer to Texas but it's hard getting who I want to accept my request. We have everything they need, funds strong staff and communication that they need to trust us." I say Ms. Rose nods her head and I hand her the planner.

"Tuesdays we plan. Wednesday I usually have meetings. Thursday, we get charts, graphs and expected dates of reaching our goal and then Friday I am not too pushy on them since we get close three hours early, but we do go over everything this week and I have everyone send in their work for the week We also have a staff party at the end of the month that we throw after we reached our goal in sales..."

"Fun! I also see that you have a lot of meetings on Wednesday. Why not space them out?" she asks, and I shrug my shoulders.

"I feel like it's best to get them all out of the way in one day. I do miss out on other stuff that could be taken care off, but I think meetings on Wednesdays works instead of every day doing them." I say and Ms. Rose turns a page in my planner.

"Right… And your handwriting isn't the best. How can you even read this?" she says and points out something Espio wrote.

"That isn't mine. My old assistants." I complain and sit down and then I hear my trashcan move and I see her throwing it away.

"Ms. Rose- "

"It's fine! I bought you a new one and I will also link your calendar to your phone and your computer so you can have alerts on when to expect them. I also know you like to do all your meetings on a Wednesday, but I think you should spread them apart. One Monday to schedule out the whole week and then Wednesday for anything that needs to be done before the end of the week!" she says, and I watch her place a fresh planner on my desk.

"Your meetings may go over a lunch break, but I can get you breakfast, lunch and dinner if needed! You should be comfortable at your own company, and I think the way you have things set up is very stressful. You have to stay young and fresh for the ladies out there." She jokes and I smile and grab my picture of my family facing my way and I turn to it her.

"Lady. I am married with one son." I say and Ms. Rose looks at the picture and holds it close to her face.

"Oh! Sorry, I didn't know. I would think of you being so young and successful then you would- sorry haha!" MS. Rose says, and I laugh with her.

"It's fine. I get that a lot." I say and Ms. Rose places the picture down.

"How long have you been married and how old is your little twin there?" She asks.

"Five years and Jules is three."

"Aw! So cute and precious. I see why you are successful. Big loving supporting family behind you." MS. Rose says, and I think about my relationship with my wife and shrug my shoulders.

"Sometimes, but what can you do?" I say and that makes the room quiet, and I realized I said too much. "Sorry- "

"No, that's fine…" Ms. Rose says and her peachy lips curve. "I have to get to know you anyway so I hope you will be open with me."

"Ignore that last comment. Marriages can be quiet the handful." I say and Ms. Rose scoots up, interested in what I was going to say next.

"Like what?" she wonders, and I laugh and shrug my shoulders.

"Marriage stuff. "I try not to give anything away and her eyes search over my face and emotions like when she was studying the planner and she parts her lips once more but then my door opens.

"GOOD MORNING, SONIC!" Knuckles yells and I was glad to see him because I just dodged a bullet.

"Hey." I say and he freezes and sees Ms. Rose.

"Ms. Rose! How is the first day going! I know Sonic is treating you well!" Knuckles acts super friendly with my new assistant, and she responds back.

"Great! I threw his planner away and now I think he is thinking about me a lot more since I am suggesting that he does other things to help him out with himself and the company." Ms. Rose says, and Knuckles smiles and looks at me.

"Real assistance! Sonic you made the perfect choice choosing Ms. Rose. She is beautiful as well so- "

"Knuckles." I face palm and Ms. Rose laughs.

"Thank you, Mr. Knuckles." She says and Knuckles blushes and gets timid.

"It's… It's Knuckles. Everyone c-calls me that." He says and studders making me cock my eyebrow.

"Knuckles! Okay, I also can't wait to meet more staff." Ms. Rose to me and tilts her head. "Are you going to introduce me?"

"Yes, and you need a tour so we can do that and meet the staff." I say getting up and she gets up as well, after straightening her dress and heading towards the door.

Knuckles bumps into my shoulder and does its hour-glass shape, outlining her body and I shove him back. I do look at her though and I could still see that tattoo I saw before, and I evert my eyes away to the door because she was about to open it.

"I gotcha." I say opening the door for her and she steps out the way and looks me in my eyes but then it's like she was still studying me from before.

"Thank you." She says and takes the lead out into the main area with staff filling up the cubicles and since Knuckles was joining us suddenly, he did the tour for me and all I did was accompany them.

Ms. Rose seem elated to be here and to know about our company and what we did, and I wanted to know more about her as well since there is barely anything wrong with how she acts and presents herself. It's slightly confusing for a person to act how she does so let's see how the next couple of weeks go with her getting used to being here.

Three weeks later

"That's how our company can recover from our fall with Texas. We will spread the company in more states and then once Texas notices that then we might have a shot with them again." I say and point at the power point behind me, and my staff smiles at my plan and agrees with it.

"That's end of the meeting though if you have any questions ask me after my lunch. Don't be late to be back at work. Have a great lunch." I say and they all walk out, and I sigh after that long meeting and yawn.

I walk out myself and Ms. Rose appears right time and holds out a to-go lunch from a sub shop and a water.

"Lunch time and you also have that phone call from Missouri, I had been warning you about every day! Come on!" Ms. Rose walks ahead of me and yawn again.

"Ugh, right. I need to take a nap though; my presentations get me so tired." I yawn again right after, and MS. Rose opens the door with her feet and places the food on my desk and starts to take it out and I watch her.

"I got you some energy foods too! Bananas get boring so I cut up some green apples for you." She says and I smile and touch her shoulder making her stop making my lunch so perfect once again.

"Ms. Rose, it's alright. I told you, you don't have to organize my lunch for me." I say and sit down, and she places on hand on her hip.

"Then how are you supposed to be at your best for the rest of the day. I want to make sure you eat your important foods for energy since you don't want to take my advice on stop eating all this fast food. Carbs make you sleepy." MS. Rose says, and I laugh and take a big bite of my sandwich and shrug my shoulders.

"Carbs also make me very happy." I say back and she laughs and taps on my desk as I devour my food and then she places my phone the desk.

"You have a call in 30. I'll be back to come check up on you in 20. I need to eat as well." She says and she walks away, and I felt confused because she always ate in here, but she was leaving this time.

"Uh? Are you not eating in here?"

"Cream and other staff asked me to eat with them, so I hope that is fine! Enjoy your lunch." Ms. Rose says and then she stops and clears her voice.

"Hey Alexa! Play Boss's favorite playlist." She says and I laugh at her, and she closes the door.

"Playing Boss's favorite playlist created by best assistant ever and music is from Spotify." Alexa says and soft jazz music plays, and I thought Ms. Rose creating this was pointless but I enjoyed the soft jazz as I ate.

It lifted my mood and made me think to myself for a while as I take a break from working. Soon after I finish eating and she appears back and stops Alexa and cleans my desk for me.

"How much time do I have until the call?" I ask and she throws my trash away and places a small mirror in front of me so I could check my face.

"Eight minutes! Here is another water if you get thirsty from talking and your notes.

'Ms. Rose places it in front of me and then walks over and straightens my tie.

"What is the point of bringing the mirror over here if you are going to fix me for me?" I joke and her laughs lightly and rolls her eyes.

"You weren't going to fix your tie anyway." She says and walks off and closes the office door that was open and then sits down with a note pad and scoots closer.

"I was. Watch me." I fix my tie again and Ms. Rose giggles and then my phone rings.

"Sound happy and proud during this call." Ms. Rose reminds me, and I answer the phone and put it on speaker.

"Good afternoon, this is Sonic the Hedgehog speaking." I say and Ms. Rose gives me a thumbs up.

"Hiya, Sonic! Nice to hear from ya!" Says Craig from Missouri, our next goal getting their company needing our help.

"Likewise. I hope everything is treating you well and not a bad thing is happening with you." I say and look at my phone.

"Everything is going well but the price you offered me. I thought we were agreeing on 300k but now its 450k… not sure if it is worth it or not to work with a company that just lost an important state like Texas." Craig says and I shrug my shoulders.

"We did lose Texas but that has nothing to do with our deal. Texas is something we can always get back but since they denied it then everything, I was going to offer to them can go to you for 50k cheaper."

"Sonic… you already need the funds you are going to get so you know I won't for something you are going to say 'yes' to any price I say. I think I have the checkmate this time." Craig says and I look at Ms. Rose who was smiling because of the game plan she created and a good one.

"Expected but… I think you need me more than you think." I say and stand up and walk to my window and I stare outside.

"Need you? Explain."

"Well, first. Your company is the only city that doesn't have my company in it. I know you know that I am a man that can get many businesses to profit from but you... I like you and what you do, and you are a trustworthy man. And trustworthy men must make decisions which to; A. Accept my offer when I am giving you way more than needed or… B. You don't accept it and I move into another company and offer them this deal and be on my way, not including the extra money I would make or C…" I stop talking and Ms. Rose watches me talk and I look at her with a greedy smile on my face.

"I make my own company there and take yours down so what do you want? Either way my company is going to show itself in your state if it's you or not. Do you want war or peace?"

"W-What?! Why Missouri? Out of all the states you want to take over mine because you raised our deal?"

"Yes, just like you said. I lost Texas and I need to do everything to get their attention because and your state is pretty popular with Texas." I say walk back over to my phone and listen to Craig sighs stressfully and I laugh.

"You don't have too? I'm think other companies would love my help and pay for a higher place. What is it going to be, Craig? I don't have all day." I say and Ms. Rose clicks on mute on my phone.

"Don't be pushy, Friendly remember. He is going to say, 'yes' but you have to be friends with him too."

"Right… okay." I say and unmute it.

"400k" he says, and I smile.

"Nah, 450k. If that's too much, then I'll go ask your company rivals and help them succeed."

Craig went silent and then I heard some papers move around from his side of the phone.

"Fine." He agrees and Ms. Rose pumps her arms in the air and then she puts the phone on mute.

"Meet him in Missouri maybe? Nice dinner and you can chat with him since he is joining along." Ms. Rose says and stands up starts to file the acceptance letters she already printed because she knew they would agree.

This was all her plan; she knew that Craig would know about what happened between my company and Texas so created a plan to get them join no matter what.

My company eyes had always been in Missouri, but Ms. Rose brought to my attention that we needed to persuade them with the offer we had for Texas and use to get Missouri. My staff was a little skeptic about MS. Rose saying that we should use our plan for Texas for Missouri, but MS. Rose didn't want us to give up.

She saw that we threw away the Texas poster on the wall that contained our goals, achievements, and updates on how it was going.

She made a new goal list, and it was still about getting Texas back but also advancing the company for a way to get Texas' attention.

Ms. Rose finishes some paperwork and I watch as she grins and slides me the paper. "I'll fax this over after you sign it."

I sign it right away and I unmute my phone.

"Craig? You alright there?"

"Haha, yeah. I am just wondering how a kid like you got me to accept your deal." He jokes and MS. Rose takes the paper and places it in the fax machine and types on it.

"I am lucky to have a great staff. That's all." I say and I watch Ms. Rose clap her hands in success and she gives me a thumbs up. "Also, my assistant just sent you documents of my offer. Sign your name if you are interested and if I don't get I back by this morning then I am finding someone else. But I am sure that will not be a problem!"

"Haha, yeah. Yeah. I hang up before you try to buy my wife from me next." Craig jokes and then he hangs up.

"Woo Hoo!" MS. Rose says, and I chuckle and stand up. "Boss secured the win!"

"I did. I did. But probably without you I never would have thought of that so, great work." I compliment her and she curtsy.

"You are welcome sir I think you should tell the rest of the staff. They would love to hear about Missouri." Ms. Rose says and opens my door.

"You tell them. I'll be behind you." I say approaching her.

"Why me?"

"It was your idea. Go on." I say and her eyes explore mine face before smiling and walking towards the main area.

The sunshine hits our face once we passed the wall and I clap my hands twice to get the attention of them.

"Hey, can I get everyone over here?" I ask and my staff gets up from their computers and tables and approaches us.

"Ms. Rose has something to say." I give her the spot and she look over everyone.

"I… I just wanted to say that we got Missouri!" She yells and they gasp and clap their hands.

"Woah really?!" One of my staff asks.

"Yup. After Ms. Rose's plan and your hard work, we got them to settle for 450k instead of 300k. Give yourselves a round of applause." I state and they cheer more than clap and that makes me laugh at my staff.

After our many celebrations I talk to my some of my staff one-one with Ms. Rose following me.

"Mr. Hedgehog! Everything is working out again." Cream says.

"Thank chaos it is. I was starting to lose my mind over Texas for a moment, but we got Missouri, so we still have a chance."

"Yes! WE should celebrate it for our anniversary party. Five-year company!" Cream reminds me.

"That party is Friday. How could I forget?" I say.

"Party?" Ms. Rose asks.

"Did Mr. Sonic not tell you about the party? I hope you're coming it's this Friday."

"Right. Sorry I forgot to tell you, but it is this Friday, but you should join us. Staff requirements to party together."

"Uh…sure! Sounds great. I will be there!" Ms. Rose smiles lightly, and I watch cheerfulness on her face.

"IT's a nice dress up party so make sure you wear a cute dress. You already look nice now, but this is a semi formal party. Six-year anniversary!" Cream shouts again and so does the staff from overhearing us.

"Okay- "

"MS. Rose! Cream come over here for a moment!" Said a female staff worker of mine.

"Come on!" Cream takes MS. Rose's hand, and she turns to me.

"I'll be back!" She says and goes with Cream.

While she walked away it made me think about how affective it is to have Ms. Rose here. Her teeth shinned when she talked to her staff becoming her friends and I couldn't help but to think that having her as my assistant was so unreal.

Ms. Rose catches me looking at her and she winks with one eye and the goes back into the conversation.

"Hm… what an interesting woman."
