I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
It had been 2 years and 6 months since that day, when Amy nearly committed suicide. Later on, it came to light that a medicine she was on had depression as one of its possible side effects, and the situation on where I had left Station Square after a fight with her hadn't done much good either. But, now I'm here with her, and completely crazy in love.
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I looked over at Sonic and smiled a small smile. He looked back at me with this goofy grin on his face before shoving a chili dog into his mouth, like a pig. I shook my head, chuckling. We've been dating for two and a half years now, officially. It's been a roller coaster, since he's always has to do something, and I'm at home. I'm so lucky that my knight in shining blue fur came to rescue me, finally.
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
Walking hand in hand, Amy and Sonic cruised around Twinkle park, eating and riding every ride there. Even the kiddie trains, where they had to squish their knees to their chests, laughing like a couple of morons. The parents were probably wondering what the two hedgehogs had smoked before coming. Now, they were headed toward a bench to sit on.
I'm sorry that I've hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Plopping down on the bench, Sonic sighed and leaned into the wooden slats for a back, his arms spread out a crossed the back of the bench, and Amy snuggled up to his side. A smile crossed his face, and he put his arm around her. If anyone asked him about her now, Sonic would say he was the luckiest hedgehog alive.
That's why I need you to hear
"I love you, Sonic," Amy said, and kissed his cheek softly. Returning her kiss, he smiled and hugged her tighter to his chest. Suddenly, he let her go and stood up. Reaching into the pocket of the jeans he was wearing tonight, he grabbed the small box from it and knelt in front of the bench. Pulling it out and opening it up, inside was a small silver ring with a small Amethyst carved into the likeness of a small Chaos Emerald. "Ames," he began. "I've been thinking about this for the past few months, and I think now is the right time... I want to know, Amy Marie Rose, if you would accept my- oh, screw it. Amy, will you marry me?"
I've found out a reason for me
To change who I used to me
A reason to start over new
And the reason if you
Looking down at Sonic, she sighed and gave him a slightly saddened look. How could he be so blind? So naive? Did he really even have a clue? These thoughts crossed through her mind, and she leaned foreword slightly, closer to him. Swallowing, as Sonic's eyes locked onto hers, she removed the glove from her left hand. "Sonic..."
And the reason is you
And the reason is you
And the reason is you
She gave me that sigh, and I knew it was all over. The sigh that the most popular and attractive girl in high school would give the nerd with the long hair and the glasses, who was shy and ugly due to societies view on people. I could feel it, right in my chest, my heart chipping and breaking away as I knelt in front of the person I loved with every fiber of my being. I also felt warm tears I hadn't felt in almost 3 years, when Amy nearly died, spring up behind my eyes.
I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I looked down at Sonic, who had tears in his eyes and his mouth hung slightly slack in shock. I came down from the bench and knelt in front of him. He looked so sad, and so exposed. A smile crossed my face, and I asked him one question as I held out my left, non-gloved hand to him. "Sonic the Hedgehog, do you need to ask that question, when you already know the answer?"
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
Sonic went even more wide-eyed before he grinned, and slipped the small ring onto her finger. Then, he grabbed her and hugged her tightly, so his arms wrapped around her lower chest and Amy's arms around his neck. Standing up, he swung them around and listened to her laugh. Once he stopped spinning them, he let her down. Keeping one arm around her middle, he let go of Amy with the other and brought his hand to her face. Curling his finger, he slid it under her chin and lifted her head up to meet his gaze. Sonic then dipped his head foreword slightly, and Amy's did as well. Meeting in the middle, their mouths curved against one and other's in a lip lock. In the background, they both would swear they heard a song about "A Reason", then the fireworks went off overhead. The Fourth of July show had begun, and under the colored lights of explosions, the newly engaged couple continued to kiss.
I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you
