A/N: Well sorry about the delay but here it is, Chapter 6. Now the 5th Chapter was a happy chapter... but this chapter is kind of sad. I would like to thank BSD for letting me upload this story. But please, PLEASE review. Oh and thank you for the review.
Sally couldn't stop the tears. She got back up awkwardly, feeling a dull thudding in her right leg. Then she carried on, wiping the tears that would not leave her be. That night was so romantic and during it all, Antoine was nowhere to be seen. It was for the best as he would have done anything to break it up. Sally got rather shaky as she felt the thudding grow in her right leg. She stopped again to let it ebb and die. Something seemed to be missing, she thought carefully. Something happened before the operation. Then she remembered something she wished she would forget and it brought forth a whole load of new pain, and it all happened a week after the party.
Sally woke up to Nicole's beeping alarm. "Off." Sally yawned.
She pulled on her boots and entered the bathroom to get ready. No sooner had she come out, when she heard a knocking on her door. "Who is it?" Sally called out. "It's me." Called a familiar voice. Sally smiled.
"Enter." She called as she pulled on her waist coat. Sonic entered with a letter. "I was told to give this to you as soon as possible. The guy who gave it to me told me it was very important." Sally took the letter and tore it open;
Alicia, I have some urgent business that I wish to discuss with you. You will find a carriage outside waiting for you. It is important that you come.
The letter wasn't signed but Sally knew it was from her father. "I have to leave right away. Sonic your in charge." Sally said. She quickly made her way outside, and sure enough there was a coach waiting outside. Sally was quickly hustled inside and whisked away to the palace.
When she got there, the door was opened and as she stepped out two guards quick marched her to her father.
"Leave us." The king ordered and the guards left.
"You wanted to see me Daddy?" Sally asked.
"Yes Alicia, I do." The king replied. "Now I have reason to believe that you are seeing that brute Sonic again."
"I'm not Daddy." Sally responded.
"Now don't lie to me my girl. I know that you are seeing Sonic again."
"But Daddy I told you that I'm finished with him."
"You have been seeing him behind my back and now I hear that you wish to start a…family with this cretin." The King said slowly raising his voice.
"He's not a cretin. He's a very intelligent person and he-"
"He has dared to taint you!" The king roared.
"He hasn't. We are in love!" Sally yelled
"In love? Don't give me that. You are nothing but a stupid girl that doesn't know what good for her."
"I do know what's good for me! It's you that doesn't!"
"ENOUGH!" The king roared. The hall echoed with his voice. It shocked Sally into silence. "Now as far as I can see, you're carrying his children and that I can't have. So I want you to get rid of them."
"I won't." Sally refused.
"Then if that's the case, I'm going to do it. You are going to have an abortion whoever you like it or not. Take here away." The king yelled. Two guards entered and stood either side of her. "And make sure the doctor does it." the King added. "You can't do this." Sally protested. Oh I can my daughter,
I can." Sally was then taken, kicking and screaming to the infirmary.
Sally sat in her room, hunched over holding her stomach. She had returned to the Freedom Fighter base in tears. She had fled to her room, running past anyone she met. There was a small knock at the door. She didn't answer it.
"Sal, are you O.k.?" Sonic poked his head around the door. Sally looked up at Sonic. "I-I got something that I need to tell you." Sally whimpered. Sonic closed the door behind him and crossed the room to sit on the bed.
"My father he.." Sally broke off into tears. Sonic put his arm around her.
"If you don't want to talk about it, that's O.K." Sonic said soothingly.
"But I need to tell you." Sally said through her tears. Sonic pulled her close. Sally lent against him, pulling her legs under her as she did so. "My father….aborted the baby." Sally sobbed.
Sonic gritted his teeth. "He…is going…to pay.." Sonic said, rage in his voice as he stood up. As he did, Sally grabbed his arm. "No, please don't go." Sally sobbed. Sonic turned and looked at her tear stained face.
"It's what he wants you to do. Please don't go. I need you." Sally begged. Sonic realised that he belonged with Sally. She needed him. He sat back down on the bed, leaning on the head board. He patted the patch next to him. Sally crawled over and lay next to him, her head resting on Sonics chest. Sonic wrapped his arms around her. She wrapped her arms around him and held him close. She felt Sonic rest the side of his head on top of hers as her slowly caressed her hair. She heard the soft thudding of Sonics heart.
"My poor, poor girl. I'm here for you. Now and forever." As Sonic said this, she felt a tear land on her cheek. She held onto Sonic, hugging him close. Sonic did the same. She felt a little bit safer now she was with him. She closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.
