Start Over

Chapter 1 The Talk

Today Amy felt more happier then usual, her and Tails never said a word to anyone about their little talk and what they did in the Thorndyke garage yesterday. She walked without a care in the world until she bumped into Sonic.

She realised she was in the long hallway of the mansion which were like the other rooms beautifully decorated with the long red carpet on the floor which could make anyone feel like a movie star and lamps on the side of the walls which was crusted in gold.

Sonic finally said something "Amy, look I know that you must be mad at me for yesterdays incident and I like to say I am sorry."

She was about to say something until he held up his hands in defence and said "Please don't hurt me!" in a pleading sort of tone.

She finally answered in happiest tone possible "That's ok." she sighed happily.

Sonic was almost left in confusion so he tried something "Amy I destroyed all your dresses!"

She replied "That's nice." he was shocked he was expecting one swing of from her hammer but he did not get one single one.

He turned around in time to see Tails talking with her, he knew what he was about to do was wrong but he wanted to know if there was a problem with her, so he eavesdropped on their conversation.

Sonic could hear Tails say "So Amy I wanted to give you this." it was just a single red rose she accepted it and smelled it Tails carried on "I saw it and thought of you."

Amy kissed him on the cheek and said "Thank you." She left like one of those school girls in the summer of love.

Sonic was now even more shocked he saw her kiss his best friend on the cheek, sure he was only a few yards away from the conversation but he knew he heard and saw what was in front of him.

He thought "That does it, I will not be left in the dark any longer, even if it was for a couple of minutes but I need to know what's going on now."

He walked towards Tails who just stood still looking in the direction where Amy left. Sonic's footing could easily be heard on the soft exquisite red royalty like carpet, but when he reached his little buddy he acted like he was in a world of his own.

Sonic flicked his fingers and waved his right hand in front of him and said "Hello, you in there little buddy?"

Tails shook his head and said "Oh, uh, Sonic what are you doing here?"

Sonic was acting his cool and laidback way and said "Oh, nothing I was just in the neighbourhood and the next thing I notice is that you," he emphasized with a point of his finger as he continued talking "giving a rose to Amy the one who has a load of love hearts, the one who has her room mostly pink, the one who swings her hammer like a psycho.."

He was stopped by an angered Tails "Hey don't call my girl a psycho." he defended.

"Wait a minute your girl? What are you talking about?" Sonic said as looked at him for an answer.

Tails thought "Well you blew it you better tell him now, go on what's the worst he is going to say?"

Sonic was still looking at him, Tails then said "Sorry." he turned around looked back at Sonic and said "You want to know? Come on we talk privately about this."

Ella was in the kitchen washing up the plates, mugs and other kitchen utensils, she heard Amy humming a tune to herself Ella looked behind her and saw her walking around like a lost soul with a single rose in her hand which she gazed at through her tune.

Ella returned to the job at hand and said "You sound happy today Amy."

Amy looked up confused and said "Huh."

Ella knew what it was since it is what she went through at her age. She ceased what she was doing and wiped her hands on the soft wash cloth nearby.

She repeated "I said You sound very happy today."

Amy then looked up to her and said with a dreamy look in her eyes "Oh yeah I am." she sat down at a table on a nearby stool, she looked at her rose still as if she was connected to it and letting go of it did not seem like an option that has crossed her mind.

Ella sat across from her on another stool nearby and said "Alright who is it?"

Amy knew what she said then her reply was "No one in particular."

Ella replied back "You can not fool me." Amy looked up shocked that she was easily read Ella carried on talking "That is the same look in your eyes that I had when I was your age and you come in with a rose from no one in particular." she said in a joking tone.

Amy then thought "Maybe it will not hurt to tell Ella."

She looked towards Ella and said "Ok I am with someone"

Ella asked "Is it Sonic?"

Amy shook her head and said "No, Tails."

Ella looked confused, Amy then said "I'll tell you how it happened you see.."

"…and that's the whole story." Sonic looked gob smacked at what Tails had told him, luckily he was sitting down on a bed otherwise he would of fainted. Tails was standing up like a president of a country making a speech, Sonic stood up and paced back and forth through the guest bedroom which was at the very top of the mansion.

Sonic stopped looked at him said "Are you stupid?"

It was now Tails turn to look gob smacked "What, what did I do wrong?" he said in a worried tone.

"I'm serious, tell me do you really love her?" he asked

Tails replied confidently "Yes."

"Tails," he sighed wondering how to tell him "you told me when she cried on your shoulder you felt like you loved her right." he said in a calm voice.

Tails nodded, Sonic carried on talking "Let me ask you this then? How do you know you just did not feel sympathy for her?"

Tails was now dumbfounded he could not answer that, what if he did felt that emotion other then love. Sonic was about to go down the stairs until he gave his little buddy advice "If I were you I would think hard on the situation cause this is really a delicate thing you got yourself into."

He left and shut the door behind him leaving only Tails to think.

Ella listened to every bit of detail in Amy's story but to Ella the answer was simple she said "So basically you found someone else to concentrate your emotions on other then Sonic."

Amy replied "Well.. I guess you could put it that way."

Ella then said "So you are just taking the easy way out to not deal with your emotional distress."

Amy looked at her shocked and stuttered "I..I thought you would of understand what I am going through."

"I do understand what you are going through, but don't you think you should search yourself before going for another person for love." Ella reasoned

Amy knew Ella was right, sadness took over her once happy face, Ella could not do anything for her sadness but she knew many people in life who would do a mistake like this.

Ella went back to her job and said "Besides how do you know that you and Tails feel the same way for each other, later on in this relationship you or him may find that you never felt anything at all for that person and leave that same person in tears."

Amy has to give her that she was good at this subject she left her rose on the table and went for somewhere quiet to think on this.

She got to her bedroom to be left with her own thoughts as she jumped for her fluffy bed her face into the pillow. She thought long and hard on it but she came up with only one conclusion she had to let him down gently and start over at some point if there was ever going to be a chance for that.
