Ch 7: Still sane…or are we?
"SONIC!!" Amy yelled loudly.
Sora barged through the kitchen door, waiting for her yelling so he can comfort her. "Amy? Did Sonic betray you again?" He asked without hesitating.
"Seems like Sonic disappeared again. I hope he didn't leave...if he did...oh! Is he gonna be in for a world of hurt!"
Amy went all around the house. Sora didn't bother to help at all. Amy gave him an unnoticeable glare for that. She thinks that Sora is beginning to act like Sonic, but she knows that Sora could never save her life. This is why she continues to go after Sonic; despite the fact she thinks she'd be happier with Sora.
Meanwhile, Sonic was in Amy's room. The only light illuminating it was the sun from the window. He just wanted to get away from everyone. This was the only place he could. He lied on Amy's bed, closed his eyes and he fell asleep.
Amy suspected that Sonic had left so much that she gave up looking. Instead, she hung out with Sora at the mall. They didn't come back until night, and this is when she heard a loud thump from her room, and she went to check it out.
She walked into her room and turned on the light to find Sonic sleeping on the ground. "Aww…cute." She said as she gently shook him.
Sonic opened his eyes lightly and quickly jumped into her arms. 'Amy!" He said, he sounded half asleep.
"S-Sonic?" Amy looked at him shocked.
"Ah!" Sonic jumped away and dusted himself off. "What...where am I? And why...?"
"Sonic?" Amy said again.
"What, what, WHAT?!" Sonic replied loudly.
"Why didn't you tell me you wanted to take a nap? I was worried sick about you! Sora and I went to the mall together and all I could think about was where you were!"
"You went to the mall with Sora?! And you didn't even invite me! I can't...bleh. I don't care about your life Amy! I just...I just want to be...left ALONE!" Sonic said and he stormed off, right passed Sora who blinked with a dazed look on his face.
Sora walked over to Amy. "Amy...Sonic is just so rude to you. Just let him go...ok? I'll always be here."
"Shut up Sora! Please, get out of my room." She pointed towards the door.
Sora walked out as he commanded and he gently shut the door. "I better have a talk with our dear friend Sonic." Sora said. He found Sonic on Amy's couch staring at the ceiling. "Hey..."
"What do you want?" He replied coldly.
"Well...I realize Amy loves you, and I...well I think you should be nicer to her. I was fooling myself to ever think she'd fall for me. I know we're not very close you and I...but I will do you a favor if you just...just be nice to her."
Sonic looked away from Sora, crossing his arm. "I can't. Even if I try." He said simply.
"But why? Can't you see what she does to prove herself to you? How upset she gets when you're not around? How obsessed with you she is? She loves you more than any girl could love anyone, Sonic. Even if you don't want to be kind to her...I really think you should..." Sora replied in a dark manner as he looked down sadly.
Sonic made himself a bit clearer, he sounded serious for once as he said, "I know that, Sora! I know how much she loves me 'cause she tells me every day! I'm sick and tired of her constantly stalking and annoying me just for her enjoyment! I am...nice to her. I have saved her life more than Knucklehead can count...and if I could do more...I would...I'm just to sh...y...I lov-I-I...I Just think she's just to annoying for me to do that!"
Sora sighed. "If you just show one hint of kindness toward her...I will leave. That I promise, because I know my presence is unwanted by you."
"R-really?" Sonic asked. "I guess I should say that I DO want to be nice to her...I don't know why, I just can't...I think one thing and say something completely different."
"Really? If you can make your brain pay attention for two minutes I can teach you."
Sora began to help Sonic speak his mind around Amy. It was only meant for two minutes, but Sonic was so impatient and had the attention span of a fly so it took hours. Sonic thought it felt like therapy, but he began to get closer to Sora. He found out he was a very nice hedgehog. Sora on the other hand discovered Sonic's feelings for Amy, and he figured that was why Sonic wanted him to leave. Now Sonic didn't tell him this directly, he found out on his own.
The next day was the day Sonic's days at staying at Amy's house were supposed to end, but to her surprise, Sonic woke her up with his knocking on her room door. Amy answered it of course. To her surprise Sonic handed Amy a bouquet of flowers and an apology card, he then left without saying anything and went to watch T.V with Sora.
Amy stood there in shock, She was pretty sure it was a dream. When she pinched herself and didn't wake up, she knew it wasn't a dream. She continued to stand is shock until she slowly and calmly closed her door. "I can't believe this!" She exclaimed as she danced happily around her room, she opened the apology card, it said.
"I'm sorry Amy for all the trouble I have caused.
Really, I do not mean it.
I saved your life because I actually care.
I hope that you forgive me."-Sonic
"I can't believe I did that..." Sonic said, he sounded like he was very embarrassed and ashamed.
"Amy must be really happy...I'm glad you did that for her. So, I guess you're going to leave now...your three days were up. You can go home...and I guess I should as well..." Sora replied.
"No. I am staying here."
"Why?"
"Because I...It's nicer here than my own house!"
"If you say so..."
