A/N: Happy Easter! Hmmm those chocolate Easter eggs were nice! But anyway, this chapter might seem extreme and touching. Well that's what someone said…
-Coughcindamcjingacough-
Oh yeah, I almost forgot. For all you KnuxRouge fans, there's going to be a romantic scene just for you!
Knuckles was on his way to the hospital. He was holding roses in his right hand and chocolates in his left arm. He walked inside of the hospital and went to the reception.
"I'm here to see Miss Rouge" Said Knuckles.
The sectary looked at Knuckles. "Rouge, let's see. Rouge The Bat?" She asked.
Knuckles nodded.
"She's in ward four"
When Knuckles arrived at ward four he became nervous. He saw Rouge looking rather depressed.
"Um hi Rouge? Are you ok?" He asked.
Rouge moaned. "DOES IT LOOK LIKE I'M OK! I BROKE MY LEG AND IT SUCKS BEING IN THIS PLACE!" She yelled.
Knuckles rubbed his ears. "Sorry, well –i-I got these for you" He said then he handed Rouge the roses and chocolates.
Rouge looked rather shocked. "You got those for me?"
Knuckles blushed. "Well yeah. Um-i-I I've been cracking my brains out when I heard what happened. But, I'm so glad that you're ok"
Rouge blushed aswell. "Wow, -i-I didn't know you cared for me THAT much" She said.
Without thinking, Knuckles sat on Rouge's bed, bent over and kissed her. When he realized what he was doing, he quickly broke the kiss.
"Sorry-i-i-didn't-know-w-what came over me-"
Rouge smiled. "Just shut up and kiss me again" She said.
Soon both of their lips met.
Meanwhile…
Sonic is looking for Shadow. He searched in all the places that he could think off. Soon he started to give up into he saw Shadow.
Sonic ran up to Shadow and slapped him. "This is your entire fault! You deserve to be where Amy is! Not her. And you; you're a coward. I asked you get help but you didn't then you ended up running away because you knew it was all you're fault"
Shadow held his cheek but he didn't fight back, he just looked Sonic straight in the eye. "First of all…How dare you say that to me, you insolent swine! Amy is in hospital because she chose to save me! I didn't tell her to. Second, what would you do if you was in complete shock? You wouldn't move either. Thirdly, If you really loved Amy you would open your eyes and stop being the selfish, ignorant hedgehog that you are. You keep on hurting her feelings-"
Sonic punched Shadow before he could finish. "Don't tell me what I feel! How can you love someone when you have the world on your shoulders? Heroes have no time for love"
Shadows stood up and gave Sonic a disgusted look. "Why are you denying your love for Amy now? Of all people, I thought you would have known that love includes taking risks. I don't even need to explain myself to you. I know that you and Amy should be together but if you're going to be stupid and not take that chance then that's your loss" Said Shadow.
Sonic was shocked with Shadow's words.Soon he realized what Shadow meant.
Shadow's POV:
I watched Sonics expression. Deep down he loves Amy, he just needs to realize that he the world isn't on his shoulders. He can have happiness of his own aswell. I've already blown my chance with Amy. So long as she's happy, I am.
Sonic smiled but he seemed puzzled. "But you love Amy though" He said.
That really sunk in. I looked away before tears trickled down my face. "Sometimes, you have to give up the ones you love" I said.
Sonic seemed even more puzzled. "I don't understand"
"You don't need to understand. You just need to know. Go now" I said.
Sonic dashed off. I'm sure that I've helped him find himself and his true feelings.
I walked off own my own. Lost in my thoughts, it seemed to me that my thoughts were my only friends.
I love you Amy.
But you probably hate me.
So there's no point in trying to talk to you.
My luck is very slim.
But just promise me one thing.
Stay happy.
Keep that cute smile of yours.
Keep that beautiful personality that keeps me going.
Keep that warm strong heart of yours.
But I wish I could tell you that…
I love you.
