A/N I am really sorry for not updating for this long! I just really ran out of ideas (and kinda got distracted by a new mmorpg) , I will try to update as much as I can, again, I apologize for the long wait!

Ch. 10: Misunderstandings

Sonic looked up at this person's eyes and gulped in fear. He knew that this was a bad situation.

"Um..."

The empty eyes turned to anger, as no other than Shadow the hedgehog was staring down at the blue hedgehog. He had the "explanation, NOW!" Look on his face.

"I...um..." Sonic said awkwardly. "Great! Now Shadow thinks that I love him! This is really getting out of hand..." he thought. "Well at least Sora's gone."

Shadow stood there in silence for a minute, he wanted answers. "Now...tell me I did not hear what you just said."

"Y-You didn't! I-um...yeah! It was a mistake! I...I'll just be on my way now! Heheh..."

As Sonic began to dash off, Shadow grabbed Sonic by the ear, giving Sonic a painful glare. "Not so fast, faker. What is going on?"

Sonic stared Shadow directly in the eyes. He couldn't tell Shadow what really happened and he didn't want Shadow to misunderstand either. He didn't want to make things up as well. "Faker! Don't start THAT again! You wanna fight? Bring it on!"

Shadow let go of Sonic's ear and put a hand to his face, aggravated. He then put both his hands to his side, clutched in a fist, narrowed his eyes at Sonic and then smirked. "Well, well. Same as always I see. Sonic, I don't know what's going on, but I don't think I want to know. If we were to fight, you know who will be victorious. Continue on...just make sure I'm not involved." He said coldly as he walked away.

"Agh! That Shadow! I'll-I'll..." Sonic stopped. He realized that he was fighting for a stupid reason. He became very embarrassed at himself. "I'm acting like a fool...I can't confess my love when I'm always acting this way...But I just can't take it anymore!"

Meanwhile...

Amy sat in her chair by the window. The sun shone bright outside and the grass was lush. The sky was clear and she could hear the flickies chirping. The weather outside was the complete opposite of the heartache Amy felt inside. "My common sense tells me to leave him...but my heart won't let me. Why must I always have to chase the one I love...when I know my fantasies will never come true? Sonic will never like me as he has already shown...but I won't give up. He never falls for my tricks." Amy stood up and took her hammer out. "This time...if he doesn't marry me...I will resort to violence!"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Amy's eyes sparkled. "Sonic came back to tell me he's sorry! He's here to tell me he loves me!" Amy danced to the door and opened the door. Quickly she bowed and looked up. "It really is Sonic!" She thought.

"Um...hi Amy."

"Hi Sonic!" Amy replied.

"Sonic!"

Amy froze. She made the same mistake she always does. "Oh...sorry Sora."

Sora looked at her narrow-eyed. "Will you please never mention that hedgehog?" He sighed, "Amy...you know I love you, and you love Sonic but...Amy, It's so lonely without you. Just let me spend some time with you...who knows? Maybe I'll ease you're broken heart...so you can continue chasing that hedgehog."

Amy looked down. "Sora...you're such a good friend, you're always there for me."

"FRIEND!...Oh well...would you like to go get some ice cream together? If it cheers you up."

Amy looked at Sora, looked away, and looked back at him. She stared at him for a few seconds, making Sora feel awkward. She then glomped Sora out of nowhere and Sora stepped back holding Amy in his arms, smiling. "Let's go Amy."

Sonic sat in a char in Station square. After the "fight" with Shadow he hasn't said a word all day. He was sulking, thinking about whatever comes to his mind. The most common though, however, was Amy. He may have loved her but sometimes he seriously didn't want her around, he thought he wanted to be by himself...but he was wrong. He began to feel lonely. Sonic realized something new again, that he cherishes his time with Amy, and if Amy never stalked him, he'd be miserable. It was time for him to confess. He stood up tall and walked-that's right, walked- all the way to Amy's house where he knocked on the door. There was no reply, and after many tries, there was still no reply.

"Amy! AMY! ...She's not home." Sonic's heart was racing before, but he was actually quite relieved that she wasn't home. He couldn't confess his love to her and couldn't wait here. "It's all I need to do...all I need to do is find her! But where is she? Maybe she's at the mall...who knows? Man, but she'll sure be happy to see me looking for her...maybe I should buy her something at the mall while I'm there? But what should I get for her?"

When Sonic arrived at the mall, she didn't see Amy in her regular stores so she figured she went home. Sonic was constantly chased by fangirls and fanboys, but he was so used to it, it didn't matter. All he wanted was to find Amy. He bought a pearl necklace for her a paid extra to wrap it in pink and blue wrapping. He had a wide grin as he was on his way back to Amy's house, where he was to give her his gift, and maybe if he doesn't shy away, propose to her.
