"Amy?" muttered Shadow as he touched her face.

It was solid. He was afraid that she was not real and would lose her again. Amy smiled and Shadow was now sure that she was here. He let go of her hands which he pinned above her head and hugged her. He truly missed everything about her. It was like he was waking up from a dream. A single tear went down his face. He had someone who cared for him back.

Amy looked down at the happy hedgehog. He was hugging her waist and his head was on her stomach. She pushed him away for a second so she could hug him better. Her arms went around his stomach and her eyes closed. Shadow put his head on hers and he had his arms around her upper back. Amy sighed contently. It has been a long time since she had a man to hug.

Shadow didn't want to let go of her, but eventually Amy got out of his embrace. He didn't like it, but he didn't voice it. She smiled at him. He smiled back.

"You better not tell the Blue Blur that the Greek girl is actually Amy," she said to him in a pointed manner.

"Why would I do that? I want to see that cocky smile wiped off of his face," said Shadow.

Amy laughed a hearty laugh that held some femininity in it. Shadow noticed for the first time that her voice was much more feminine. He noticed too that he didn't know what she looked like now. The cloak kept him from seeing what she looked like now. He didn't look at it because he thought that was rude to do to a woman.

But Shadow didn't know that Amy could read minds and hear his thoughts. Amy liked the fact the he was kind enough not to ask, but was surprised that he was curious in the first place.

He's curious because he hasn't see us in a long time, said a young voice in Amy's head.

He wants to know if you are still the same, said the ageless sounding voice in her head.

Why do you both just shut the fuck up? she replied to them.

"I tell you what, if you come to Cream's thirteenth birthday, you can see me without the cloak and find out why the Sonic team calls me the Greek girl," she said.

"Hmmm…I want to see Sonic's face when you appear, so I will be there," he said.

Amy smiled and walked up to him. She leaned close to his face and kissed his cheek.

"See you later," she whispered as she disappeared.

Shadow was bright red as he left the forest. With a smile on his face.

Meanwhile, with Sonic and Tails, Tails was at a nice jewelry store to find a nice necklace for Cream. Though Sonic thought it was a horrible idea, they got Rouge to help Tails find a good necklace. He warned her that if she steals something, they are going to turn her into the police. Rouge decided not to steal anything because Knuckles has a problem with it. So, they were at a high-end jewelry store to by a wonderful necklace.

Sonic, on the other hand was still thinking about that Greek girl. So far, he had gone through 5 different events that she could be at in 5 hours.

"…Sonic? Hellooooooooo?" asked Tails waving his hand in front of his face.

"Huh? Sorry. I still can't think of where she will be," said Sonic.

Tails just looked at him

"She's going to be a Cream's thirteenth birthday party! Where else will we be?" said Tails with a vein.

"Ohhhhhhhh…I'm a retard, aren't I?" said Sonic looking at the ground.

"No. Your mentally retarded," said Tails as he turned to go keep track of Rouge.

Sonic followed silently.

"Tails! I found the perfect thing!" Rouge said as she ran over to him

"What is it?" Tails asked.

"This," said Rouge, holding out her hand.

In her hand was a beautiful diamond necklace. It was a cream colored diamond the size of Texas! It also had many sides to it and it made rainbow colors when the sun hit it. It was worth 1000 rings. Tails packed 2000.

"Damn! That is a big diamond!" exclaimed Sonic.

"It's expensive too. Can you afford it?" asked Rouge.

Tails pulled out his bag filled to the brim with rings. He smiled.

"I think I can," he said.

After paying for the necklace, Rouge went to her home/club to prepare for Cream's party. It was Rouge's gift to Cream. Tails and Sonic went home without an issue. Amy watched them from the cover of the trees. She watched them with her glowing emerald eyes.

"You'll see me again soon, my friend."
