ROBBED
Chapter Five: Stun
Sonic just stood there, staring at Amy in a mixture of shock and disbelief. He wanted to hug her, but at the same time, her aura seemed to be saying not to touch her. Against his better judgement, he stepped forward and embraced her gently; she responded and pushed her body into his.
Sonic thought of the day before, when he was yelling at Amy to open the door and get outside. He instantly felt guilty. No wonder she hadn't want to come out...
But worst of all was knowing that she was violated right after he had taken her home. (If only I had seen her inside... taken her to the door, tucked her in, anything... it could've been avoided...) And he spoke his concern to the girl.
But before he could finish she put a finger to his lips, much like a stopper to his words. "Don't apologize. It wasn't your fault... you didn't do this to me..."
"I could've stopped it from happening."
Amy shook her head. "There was no guarantee of that, either." She pet his head lightly. "It's alright, Sonic... I appreciate your support. I know I'll manage..."
But even as she spoke these words, she doubted their truthfulness. Sonic kept a protective arm around her shoulder as they walked. He hesitated to speak, afraid he might say something to offend or upset her. "Um... are you... sure, that you're... pregnant?"
"2 of 3 tests came out positive."
Suddenly the full effect of what was happenning hit Amy like a ton of bricks. She stopped in her tracks, staring blanky into space. "Positive..." she repeated numbly. "Oh Sonic," she cried, worry ever present, "What am I going to do?"
Sonic sighed in a rapt contemplation. "The way I see it, you've got two choices: go ahead with the pregnancy, or abort while it's still in it's early stages."
"Abort...! Why I... that's murder!"
"I know, I know..." Sonic sighed. "It's not my favorite option, but Ames, you're barely 14... it'd be so hard for you to raise a baby... Even adoption would be hell." He clasped her hands gently. "But whatever you choose to do, I'll stand by you 100% of the way."
Amy felt tears flood her eyelids. "Sonic..."
The pair stopped, as they had arrived in front of Amy's building. It was the same scenerio as before, yet Amy felt completely calm, lacking the strange sense of impending dread she felt before the rape happened. Her body slowly moved forward, reacting to the warmth given off by her blue counterpart.
"I'll abort it," She said firmly.
"...Positive?" Sonic replied, face looming over hers.
"Yes." She sighed. "You're right... there's no way I could raise a baby... not yet, anyway."
"Yet?"
"I'd like to be a mother someday... but not under these... circumstances..." Her voice gently faded out as her back began to curve under the blue hedgehog's guiding hand.
His reply was drowned out by a union of her lips to his....
