PRESENT DAY
"Hun, I already told you. You look perfect with everything."
"I'm not sure. What do you think about this? Dainty fingers touching a black skirt with defined pallets. To combine, she put on a purple collar sweater, long white socks and black heels.
"You look ravishing, you just need a little something on your hair, here" said her dearest friend Rouge the bat, usually described as a curvy woman and that had a body to kill for. Amy could only wish. She didn't noticed but, the pink hedgehog's body grown it's own curves: perky chest, petite waist and wide hips, this gaining undesirable attention, making the males' eyes roam over her body.
"Ready for the hunt!" Rouge said after curling Amy's quills -like hair.
The female hedgehog approached the mirror to look herself. Her eyes were wide open and so was her smile, showing pearly white teeth, the colour of her blouse contrasted with her jade orbs, not only that but her now mature figure looked stunning.
With a high spirit , Amy took a white purse to complement her outfit and the keys of her new pink car.
"So, are you ready gem?"
"I think so." She said at the same time she started her car.
Today was the day. After years, she would see him. Slowly, so slowly her happiness turned into angst. Her thoughts were slapping her. 10 years have passed and her heart still feels incomplete. Her memories haven't changed, her heart wasn't entire. It wasn't like she would forget everything that happened in a few days. She had already forgave him, but her heart and her soul could not forget. Could not let go.
In past times, she even went to dates. The first ones were basically rebounds, but only with one or two felt a real connection, they were specials until they bid farewell. She hated each time, she hated the fact her soul broke so easily.
For them it was just one more trophy, one more that fell into their trap. For them, she was weak. She wasn't worth it, she wasn't valuable enough.
Along the way, at the sound of silence, all those bad memories of awful dates returned to her head. She thought it was immature, little did she know it wasn't. The action to show concern for a person who caused her so much harm, so much pain. It wasn't necessarily immature.
Every time he talked and caressed another girl in front of her, was like a pinch to her chest, or the day she decided to start over and was finally taking small steps forward, he appeared with his sweet, sweet voice...
'Ames'
'Amy'
"AMY!"
"You almost pass a red light. You sure you're ok? The ivory bat face was full of worry.
"It's difficult you know, see him as if nothing, after so many years."
"Look hun, you need to keep moving, one day, your life will be over and all you could do was cry for a non-existent relationship, mourn for someone who didn't deserve you. You are fragile, you don't need an equal, you need, we crave for a partner who would support us. Just relax, everything will be all right.
"Thanks"
20 MINUTES LATER
Amy parked her car, with sweaty hands she released the helm.
'Okay. You can do it Amy Rose. Show them. Show him.'
She got out of the car, with slow steps and shortness of breath, Amy opened the doors of the main hall.
The first thing her jade eyes appreciated, was a beautiful and colourful sign hung with the words: " Welcome alumni of Angel High School". The echoes of laughter that she had not heard in years, were alive again. Familiar voices enter her ears.
All of the moments she lived in here, unnoticed tears flowed in her cheeks. She could not cry. Not here. Not now.
In the distance, she caught a glimpse of a cream rabbit. Amy then, remembered her. Her name was Cream. Cream was a sweet girl, she was in elementary school while Amy was in high school. The small rabbit was like a younger sister to Amy, in her school days, Amy would always look for her, even when ut was Cream's first day at Angel High and Elementary School.
'Today was Wednesday, a quite busy one. A little cream coloured rabbit was making her way in the crowded hall. It was full of voices. She suddenly felt all the students' eyes on her, startling her. The rabbit started to walk a little bit faster until she collide with someone and dropped all of the books this person was carrying.
"I'm so sorry." The poor rabbit could not longer contain her feelings and her precious brown eyes started to fill with salty water.
"Hey, do not cry." Said a cheerful and younger Amy. "It's okay, we all make mistakes."
Both of them began to pick up the discarded books on the floor.
"So, tell me. What's your name?"
"My name is Cream. Thanks for being so nice to me. You don't need to keep doing it you know. Everyone is looking at us in a pretty friendly way."
"Don't put attention to them. They do not matter." Amy gave the poor rabbit a reassuring and cute smile.
Inside of the rabbit's head crossed a pure thought:
'I know she will be my friend'
The time in which they met was good, good enough to be remembered. They were there when the other need a shoulder to cry on, they were supportive to each other.
Everything in Amy Rose's world seemed to be okay, to be fine, to be grateful, until a familiar cerulean colour started to be visible in one of the corners. Amy's happiness shattered into a million pieces, she wasn't ready, she couldn't face him. He was talking to one of his old friends and he seemed to be enjoying the conversation. She eyed him carefully, he was smiling, like a true smile. His features were more defined now, if it was possible, he looked more beautiful than she recalled. His eyes were shinning with a feeling Amy haven't seen in years. He looked full of life and youthful.
In a second, his emerald orbs found her jade ones, all of his features changed, his lips forming a line and his muscles tensed.
He excused himself, then, he began to make his way towards her. Her thoughts were running in circles, and her inner self started to crumble. But, she wasn't a coward, even if it was too much pain to resist, she was Amy Rose, she didn't give up easily and she never will.
"Amy?" his smooth voice send chills to her spine and fire to her stomach.
'Act natural '
"Oh, hi Sonic."
'That sounded too cheerful, he will believe I still love him, I know in one part it is true but...'
"Amy. Are you even listening too me?"
"Sorry, I just zoned out." Blush covered her cheeks.
"How are you?" An awkward smile in his mouth.
'Honestly, I could be better '
A lie was going to slip through her tongue. "I'm fine, thanks for asking."
A sigh escaped his lips, that sweet and chocolate flavoured lips of his.
"Look Amy, I know we haven't been on the best terms but, I can assure you, that I have already forget all of the bad decisions we made."
"What kind of bad decisions? Would you care to explain?"
"You already know Amy" said the cerulean hedgehog.
"If I already knew, don't you think I would not be asking?"
The speedster made a gesture, a gesture of pain, even of shame.
"Oh, wait. Are you talking about all we went through? All the precious moments we cherished?
The promises we made, if that is a bad decision for you, then I do not know nor understand why you came to me in the first place. You knew I would give in, and then, all you did was run."
"Amy, I'm sorry but..."
"Do not you dare to give me more fake excuses. You know what you did and what you didn't do. All you want to do right now is stop the accusation. You want to stop the guilt. But you can't."
The room was in silence, all that could be heard were whispers among the people. But at this point, it was too late for Amy to stop spilling the beans.
"You know Sonic, actually, I am the one who is sorry for you. You don't know what love is, you think you are the sun and that without you, nothing will finish it's course. But I have news for you, you are a selfish who is blinded by sex. I hope you enjoy your little ride Sonic the hedgehog."
She walked towards the main door and opened it, then, she was gone. She didn't care everyone see that performance.
At least, she said all that was contained in her heart for so many years.
Well, that was a long time. I know the chapters aren't so long, but If I do them longer, then you will have to wait more time so I will try to write a little bit more.
Also please leave me a review and help me improve!
