Hiya guys! Thank you for the reviews! I have a problem: I don't know who I should pair up. Right now, I'm thinking of Shadow/Amy. Because there aren't much of those stories. But, if my mood changes, I'm thinking of Sonic/Amy! And if I pair up Shadow and Amy, Son/Amy fans will hate me! (well, I don't really think hate..) Please help me! This actually really sucks, ya know?

Don't own Sonic... Never will..

Chapter 8: I'll forgive you

"This should be it!" Sonic said as he stopped infront of a apartment. He looked at the name tags.

"Amy Rose.. This is it! I'm so good!" Sonic said as he rang the bell. Few seconds later, Sam opened the door.

"Sonic! How did you knew we live here?" Sam asked, a little shocked.

"Cream told me... Is Amy there?" Sonic asked.

"Yeah, but she's a little busy... I don't think-"

"But I have to talk to her!" Sonic said as he went inside.

"Alright, she's in the living room." Sam said as she lead Sonic to the living room. Ämy, you have a visitor."

"Who is it?" Amy asked as she saw Sonic coming in. "Sonic?"

"Amy, listen I need to talk to you." Sonic said. Suddenly, he saw Shadow on the couch looking at him.

"I see the faker is feeling better?" Sonic said, with a rude tone.

"Sonic stop that!" Amy said angry. Is this gonna continue forever?

Shadow snorted. "Just let him be, Amy..."

Sonic tried to ignore him. "Amy, can I please talk to you," He glared at Shadow. "somewhere else?" Amy nodded and led Sonic at her balcony.

"What is it?" Amy said, a little angry.

"Amy look I..." Sonic began, but stopped. Why was it so hard to say sorry?

"What, Sonic?" Amy asked, but when Sonic said nothing, she sighed.

"Look, if you don't wanna say something, then say nothing." Amy said, feeling sad. She thought Sonic wanted to say sorry for what had happened. But, apperently not..

Amy walked past Sonic, but as she was about to go in, Sonic grabbed her arm.

"Wait Amy, I'm not done yet. Please, just give me a chance to say something." Sonic pleaded. Amy slowly turned around. Suddenly, Sonic grabbed both of her hands tightly in his.

"Amy, about what happened yesterday, I'm really sorry.. I didn't mean to say all those things. Please, forgive me..." Sonic said, looking deep into her ermerald eyes. Amy blushed. She never was this close to Sonic before, and when she did, he only just ran away.

"You.. are really sorry?" Amy said, not really believing his words. Sonic nodded.

"Yes, ofcourse. You are one of my best friends, Amy. And I would never want to hurt you.." Friends... That's all.. Nothing more. Amy always hoped there was more, but she could only dream about that.

Amy smiled. "I forgive you Sonic. But promise me that you and Shadow will be nicer to each other."

Sonic smiled also, with a bigger smile. "Thank you Amy," Suddenly, Sonic hugged Amy. Amy's eyes went wide.

'Sonic... is hugging me?' She hugged back, enjoying this moment. Then, Sonic pulled back.

They looked at each other for a moment.

"Would you like to stay and eat?" Amy asked in a soft voice.

Sonic smiled. "I would love that." Amy smiled back and they went inside.

Later, after dinner-

"That was really good, Amy!" Sonic said.

Sam nodded. "Yeah, I never new that you could cook this good, Ames!"

Amy giggled. "Thanks. What did you think about it, Shadow?" Amy said as she turned to Shadow who was laying on the couch.

"Hn." Was the only thing Shadow said.

"I guess he liked it." Amy said as she puts the dishes in the dishwasher.

Sonic stood up. "Should I help, Amy?" Sonic asked.

"No, that's ok Sonic. Go and watch TV. Sam will help me, right Sam?"

"What? Why me?" Sam asked.

"Just because!" Amy said as she and Sam went to the kitchen.

Sonic sat on a chair nearby Shadow. Sonic watched Shadow. This annoyed Shadow, so he glared at Sonic.

"What do you want?" Shadow asked, with a annoyed voice.

"I'm just wondering how you survived Ark." Sonic asked.

Shadow closed his eyes. "I don't know how I survived it..."

"Maybe it was chaos control?"

"Maybe.." Shadow said, not really wanted to have a conversation with the blue blur. Sonic saw this, and he remebered what Amy said, so he kept his mouth shut.

Later-

"I had a great time, Amy. Thanks a lot." Sonic said as he reach the door.

Amy smiled. "Me too Sonic. And thanks for being honest with me..."

Sonic scratched his head. "I only said I was sorry..."

"That's all I need." It stayed quiet for a moment.

"Well, goodnight Amy." Sonic said as he sped away.

"Goodnight, Sonic." Amy said, but he was gone.

That night-

(screech)

"Wha?"

(screech)

"What's going on?"Amy said as she heard strange noises coming from downstairs.

Amy yawned. "Probably nothing..." She said as she went back to sleep.

(screech)

Now, Amy sat straight up in her bed. "What is that noise? I'm gonna check it out." She grabbed her piko-piko hammer and went quietly downstairs.

(screech)

There it was again! What was it?

'It's coming from the living room...' Amy thought as she went into the living room. There, she saw an empty couch. 'Shadow's gone!' Suddenly, a cold breeze came inside. She looked to where it came from. There she saw the the door to the balcony open was. She slowly made it to the balcony. She stepped outside and saw a dark figure standing there.

"Whoever you are, go away!" Amy screamed as she charged her hammer to the dark figure. The figure stopped her attack with one hand.

"What are you doing?" The figure asked as he came closer to her, so Amy could see her clearer.

"Shadow? What are you doing? You know you aren't suppose to stand up yet!" Amy said.

Shadow snorted. "I don't care what they say. I don't care for everything.." Shadow said as he looked at the stars. Amy followed his gaze.

"You are thinking about her, don't you?" Amy asked as Shadow looks at her, shocked.

"Who..?" Shadow asked.

"Maria." Amy said as she looked at him. There was silence between them, as Shadow gazed back at the stars.

"Shadow... How did you survive?" Amy asked softly. Shadow ignored her.

"Did you use chaos control?" Amy asked again. Shadow ignored her again.

"Shadow..."

"Look, you don't need to know everything. Even I don't know everything, so leave me alone!" Shadow said harsly.

"Shadow, I'm only trying to help! Why are you acting like this all the time?" Amy said, now angry and upset. Shadow ignored her and avoided eye contact. He wanted to walk away, but Amy grabbed his hand.

"Oh, I know! It's because I'm friend with Sonic and hang out with him. And it's because you and him hate each other. So, you don't like me because of that? You hate me?" Suddenly, Shadow grabbed Amy's hand who was grabbing his hand.

"It's not..." Shadow began, and moved Amy's hand before his face. "It's nothing like that.." Shadow said, now looking softly at her.

"Shadow?" Amy said as he began to move closer to her. He moved his other hand to stroke her quills.

"Remember that I don't hate you and I'll never will..." Shadow said as he pulled away from her. He began to walk back inside as Amy stood there, shocked. Shadow looked once more back at her before he went back inside.

'Because you are so much like Maria...'
