Chapter seven-

Amy was surprised when she got a confirmation letter from Shadow

through the post. It read, "Yeah. –Shadow" Sure, it wasn't much, but at

least he had accepted. It was already Friday, so Amy put on a very flirty

cocktail dress, put on some make-up, did her hair nicely, and primped up.

At around seven, the doorbell rang. Shadow was wearing nice pants with

a black shirt. "Hey," she said. "Hi." Was his reply. He escorted her out to

the car, and there they went. By about eleven, they had talked for a long

time and gotten to know each other pretty well. Shadow was a lot more

sensitive and nice than she had thought. Amy had ordered one too many

cosmopolitans and Shadow was pretty filled up with beer, but Amy's

favorite song came on, and she had finally persuaded him to dance.

Maybe it was the music, or the alcohol, but for some reason unknown to

her, Shadow looked very inviting to her as they danced. She placed her

arms gently around his neck as he held onto her waist. They danced

slowly, and it felt right. Amy was a bit taken aback by this… attraction she

seemed to have towards a hedgehog who was once on the same side as

the man who wanted her & sonic dead. As the beat bounced on, they

grew closer and they closed their eyes. This was about the moment, right?

Amy thought to herself. She opened her eyes and looked into his eyes,

which had opened as well. Slowly, she began to kiss him. He seemed a

bit shy at first, but he didn't pull away. Eventually he did and said, "But you

love Sonic-" "Not anymore" Amy fought back, and pulled him in for another

kiss. Little did they know, Tails was watching the entire time, and come

morning, Sonic would know every little last detail about what had

happened.
