Hey readers! The only reason this chapter was held up was because hardly anyone reviewed! I asked how you guys feel about Shadow dying and only a few of you told me what you thought! I'll try not to kill him, but I'm in an evil mood, so there's no telling what I might do! I am also thinking of finishing this fic pretty soon. Oh, and I have ideas for a lot more fics. Well, hope you guys like this chapter! One more thing for you readers, read on to see why Amy likes Shadow. I kinda mis-worded it at the end of the last chapter. Sorry! I don't own any characters.

Chapter 7:

Sonic stopped kissing Amy as he realized she didn't kiss back. He broke the kiss and quickly got to his feet. He felt like he was going to die from such embarrassment. Amy just sat on the ground, emotion, unreadable.

"Uhhhh…sorry, um, was that to, uhh, well you know…" Sonic said in a rush, he was at a loss for words.

"Oh yeah that was great! There's just . . ." Her voice trailed off. She definitely did not want Sonic to know about her other feelings.

Sonic made a motion with his hands that meant to 'keep going and finish your sentence.'

"Oh. It's nothing . . ." Amy said it slowly because her mind was on that disturbing subject.

'Oh no. Not this again. I thought I was over Shadow since we got back down to earth. Just because I talked with him on ARK…that's when it started . . . –'

"Amy!" Sonic yelled. She jumped. "C'mon, I mean, how many secrets do you have!"

Amy looked down to the floor, ashamed that she had been keeping so many secrets from the one she loved . . .sort of.

"I'm sorry Sonic." The pink hedgehog said, still sitting on the floor.

"Yeah? Well I'm sorry, too. I have got to go get you in a hospital or something so I probably won't be back for a while. I probably have to get my wounds checked out, too. So please just stay here and stay safe. Can you promise me that?" Sonic said.

Amy slowly lifted her head to look at Sonic. "Yes." She said weakly.

Sonic kneeled down and hugged Amy gently. She hugged him back with her good arm. He got up and went to the door. He paused and looked to the ground, then was gone in an instant. Amy sat there alone, doing nothing. She couldn't stand it, so she scooted to the nearest wall and hoisted herself up. She was feeling claustrophobic in her small house, so she went outside.

'It won't hurt to go out for just a couple minutes.' Amy thought.

She went outside and leaned on the wall right next to her door. It was dark outside and the only light was the neighbor's light shining brightly. From her porch, Amy could see a lot of city lights and tall buildings. She watched them calmly, rarely moving. After about a half hour, Amy went inside to lie down on her bed. On the digital clock, it read 10:47 P.M.

"I better get some rest. Who knows when Sonic will come back?" Amy said aloud. She hated being alone when everything was quiet. She lay there staring at the ceiling, until finally, she fell asleep.

At about eight in the morning, Amy awoke to the beautiful sound of the birds chirping. When she opened her eyes, she screamed. She was in a completely white room with a television set in the corner and Sonic sleeping in a chair next to her bed. He flew out of his chair when he heard Amy scream. He quickly went over to Amy's bedside on his knees and hushed her.

"Sonic!" She gasped. "How did I get here?" Amy was a little panicky.

"I carried you because I didn't want to wake you up." He was still a little startled.

"So if I was awake you would've made me walk?" Amy said offended.

"No! That's not what I meant!" He said, trying to save himself. His arms were on the side of Amy's bed and he was hunched over, chin nearly touching the bed's white sheets.

There was an awkward silence. Amy decided to take this time to see how the doctors had treated his wounds. He had a bandage on his left arm where Shadow had stabbed him and a thin one around his stomach. He had some band-aids scattered among his body as well.

Amy took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'm sorry Sonic. I'm just a little . . ." She paused to think of the right phrase. "Shaken up." Amy finished.

Sonic said nothing, in fear that he would say something stupid. He just nodded, hoping that in some way it wouldn't offend Amy. Fortunately for Sonic, a doctor pushed the door open and walked over to Amy. The doctor shoved Sonic to the side and he fell over. Amy was shocked. The female doctor looked pretty young, with dirty blonde hair and bright blue eyes. She had a few pimples on her face, too. She was wearing the traditional white coat and pants.

"Amy are you okay? The nurses and I heard you scream." She said, sounding concerned.

"Oh. I'm fine, thank you Doctor . . ."

"Oh, of course. I'm Doctor Brown." Doctor Brown said. While she was talking, however, Amy took glances at Sonic.

Amy smiled and nodded, then quickly looked over to Sonic. He had tried to catch himself with his weak left arm. It gave out so he was completely on the ground. When Amy had fully looked at him, he was already getting up, rubbing his left cheek lightly. Sonic had gotten in to a sitting position when the doctor got bored and walked out. On her way out, she glared at Sonic until the last second she was in the room.

"What's her problem?" Sonic said.

"I don't know, but are you okay?" Amy said, sounding concerned.

"Yeah I'm fine."

He got up and walked to the chair he was previously sleeping in. He picked it up and brought it over to the pink hedgehog's bedside. They waited the whole day, but the hospital was really busy so no one could tend to Amy. They both fell asleep around the same time wondering (still) why the doctor seemed to hate Sonic so much.
