A quick note: I have put the word 'Sarckey' in this chapter. To those who don't know what it means, it's an English slang word for being sacastic

Chapter 2: Deciding

"I don't know what to do," Sonia said (still in her uniform but had her tie off) to her councillor.
"Perhaps you should start from the beginning," the councillor (a 35-year-old female rabbit wearing a suit) answered.
Sonia was seeing her ever since she was rescued from the Longtons. The councillor (Julie Kenston) specialized counseling kidnap and rape victims.
"Well," Sonia started and taking a deep breath. "I'm confused. They are two guys I like and I don't know what do."
"Tell me about them," Julie said.
"I like Sonic and I like Clas," Sonia answered. "They both have saved my life. Sonic saved me from the Longtons and was the first person I saw after being blindfolded for 3 months." Tears were forming in her eyes and her voice was starting to crack. It was hard for her to bring back the memories of her capture. "I kissed him and I think I love from the moment I saw him: but I force him into things and he has a girlfriend which he loves and I don't know what to do" and Sonia just broke down, putting her head into her lap; arms in-front of face and cried.
"Calm down, sit up and take so deep breaths," Julie said.
Sonia did that and was able to continue.
"Tell me about Clas," Julie said.
"Clas is a wolf, he's 18, a sixth former, a black belt in karate, but a very sweet guy and wouldn't hurt a fly, unless it was attacking him," Sonia said with a little smile. "He wants to become a lawyer if can't become a professional judo fighter, or something on those lines. He is very smart and very good looking and a great kisser.
"He did save me, but I can't tell you anything about it. So Sonic doesn't have that advantage.
"Basically, he is a perfect guy, but I have feeling for Sonic. My head is swelling with feeling and thoughts and emotions: why does my life have to be so confusing?" Sonia said finish, putting her fingers thought her hair.
Julie took a moment to think and write down notes.
"First, you're being a normal teenage girl," Julie said. "I remember when I was 16 I had three blokes wanting to go out with me and I couldn't decide who to go out with: so you life is no different." Julie said, trying to reassure Sonia, who was still crying a tiny bit. "Second, weighing up the facts you told me, I personally think you should go with Clas. But it's your decision, follow your heart. But remember if you do anything, it's illegal for them."
"Neither would force me to do anything I don't want to," Sonia answered.
"Good girl."

At the same time Sonic and Amy were at the cinema. They were watching 'Real Consequences' (an action thriller) (Sonic's choices of film). But Sonic and Amy weren't forcing on the film. They were hugging and kissing. Most people in the sixth form thought they were the most loved up couple they even seen and were voted best couple last year. Both have always fancied each other, but they didn't do anything about it until they were 16. They have been going out for 14 months.
But no one knew, in the back of Sonic's mind was the question: 'Amy or Sonia? Amy or Sonia?'
Both turned to see the screen. A tiger (wearing black sunglasses and a black suit) pointing a gun at a lion.
"You have killed my wife, you have killed my son and now it's my turn to kill you!" the tiger roared.
"No please!" the lion yelled "I put up to it!" However, his hand was going in this pocket.
The tiger shot at his hand and charged towards him and shoving and holding him onto the wall.
"I WAS PUT UP TO THE JOB!!!!!" the lion shouted.
"BY WHO!!"
"I CAN'T TELL YOU! OR I'LL BE KILLED!!!!"
"AND I KILL YOU IF DON'T TELL ME!!!!" the tiger shouted, pointing his gun at the back of the lion's head.
"I'll tell you everything if you promise to protect me," the lion offered.
"What!" the tiger snapped.
"You heard me!"
"HOW CAN I TRUST YOU!!!!!!"
Two police officers (a bear and a grey eagle) when to pull the tiger away.

At home Stars were was in the lounge. He couldn't focus making chemical notes and was instead focused on the TV. He was watching a comedy programme set in the east side (poorer side) of the city. Stars thought it was funny, which was bad, preparing for his coursework.
Somebody rang the doorbell. Stars couldn't get up easily and Jessica was in her room listening to Sonic's CDs, so couldn't hear the doorbell.
Plant went to answer the door. On the other side was Knuckles. He walked into the lounge and sat down on an armchair. Stars just gave up trying to read his large A-Level Chemistry book and closed it.
"Let me guess, Jessica," Stars guessed.
"Am I that obvious?" Knuckles asked.
"Lets put it this way," Stars started off. "If three very, VERY pissed blokes were changing at me with cricket bat because I decided to drink they beers, you are more obvious then that."
"You should stop that sarckey attitude," Knuckles said. "It really annoys all of us."
"Yeah, but you fancy my sister, and I'm her big brother."
"You're only two minutes older then her."
"Are you going to ask her or not?"
"When she comes down."
"She has a lot of Chemistry and Physics essays to do," Stars answered. "If you want to ask her then you will have to go to her room."
This was not what Knuckles wanted. He hated to ask girl out, he wasn't great at it, even thought he was only one girl said no to him.
But if Sonic was they he would anything to stop him because even though they were friends, Sonic wanted Jessica to be set up with Ninja. Of course he couldn't say 'no way' to his face, so he planning to set Jessica with Ninja and Knuckles with another girl. Knuckles, Jessica and Ninja didn't know the plan, so it would difficult and he shouldn't setting up other people because he couldn't decide between Amy or Sonia.
"Can I have a some coke?" Knuckles asked.
"I think you need something a bit more stronger than that," Stars said.
"Beer?"
"White spirit."
"Very funny," Knuckles said angrily.

It took Knuckles five minutes to get the courage to go upstairs and go outside Jessica's room. Knuckles knocked on the door.
"Come in!" Jessica yelled.
Knuckles opens the door. Jessica was at her desk with a Physics folder and books on it. Jessica's room was very hot and she had a tight white T-shirt on. This was making Knuckles' heart racing faster. She also had her glasses on because she was far-sighted and couldn't read anything close up to her.
She was playing a Jake Loman (a singer like Robbie Williams) CD. She was singing along to the song:
"No regrets, they don't work,
"No regrets now, they only hurt,
"Sing me a love song, drop me a line,
"Suppose it's just a point of view,
"But they tell me I'm doing fine,"
She turned her head and saw it was Knuckles.
"Hi," she said. "Stars is downstairs."
"I wanted to see you," Knuckles answered.
"Why?" Jessica asked.
"Well...." Knuckles said, a bit unsure about what he wanted to say. "Well you know that party you're having."
"Something I'm dead against!" Jessica snapped.
"Oh," Knuckles said and looked down. "This was a bad idea." With that, he turned towards the door, ready to leave.
"Wait!" Jessica yelled and stood up. "Sorry. I have a lot of coursework to do and been stressed and you know what Sonic and Stars can be like.
"Anyway, I would like to be with you," Jessica said and kissed him on the cheek.
Knuckles went out Jessica's room and walked downstairs into the lounge. Stars was waiting for him.
"How did it go?" Stars asked.
Knuckles went towards Stars, grabbed his arms, picked him up and yelled "WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!"
"She say then yes then," Stars stated.
Knuckles let go of Stars and he sat back down, watching the echidna jump up and down like a madman.
"Do you want her to see you like this?" Stars asked.
"It proves that I want to go out with her," Knuckles answered and stopped jumping.
"Okay, but you don't want get injured before the match and party."

Back at the councillor's office Sonia and Julie were finishing up the section.
"We covered a lot of ground today," Julie said. "Tuesday and Thursday next week?"
"Please," Sonia answered.
Julie wrote 'Sonia Green' under 24th and 26th at 4:00 in her diary.
Sonia grabbed her backpack. "See ya," she said to Julie.
"Bye," Julie answered.
In the waiting room was Sonia's mum (Sarah Green) was waiting for her. She was wearing a white shirt, black trousers and black high heel shoes. Sarah quit her job when Sonia was kidnapped to await news from the police and then to support Sonia when she was recused. Sonia's dad (Vinny Green) was builder and owns his own company, so they were financially secure. Sarah or Vinny would always take Sonia to Julie and meet her afterwards.
Sonia rushed towards her mother and hugged her. "Mummy!" she cried
Sonia had three things that held her together: her parents, Julie and her faith and priest. She was on the edge of a breakdown when she freed and needed the support. She had 2 weeks off from school when first rescued and changed schools because it would been awkward being around her old friends. There were moments when she did breakdown in to tears because of stress and the memory of the kidnap.
It was only the past few weeks that Sonia was starting to act and dress like did before the kidnapping. But she will never get rid of the memories.
After a minute of hugging, Sarah took Sonia to her car for the trip home.
