I had about 6000 words for this chapter but I deleted it :) And I am lucky that I came to my senses and did or else it would be a huge disappointment to a long wait. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this new and improved chapter.

Hate

X.x.X

Out of all the people that I could sit next to it had to be him. Being in his presence alone makes me feel jittery and scared. Like he is out to get me... I don't even know why I would feel this way though. He would never hurt a me, right? Maybe I should of never talked to him to begin with. I never even cared for him until the day he told me off. Just wanted someone to hide behind incase things got rough... then ditch his cold, lifeless body... and find a replacement. But now my guilt and emotions are getting the best of me. He could of really gotten killed.. and the worst part about thinking of our time together was that I was actually hoping he would back down. Weird huh?

"Amy Rose, please pay attention"

"Huh?" The airy sound escaped my lips, causing a few kids to my left to chuckle at my cluelessness.

"I said to pay attention. This isn't a place to start daydreaming ya know." Her tone held obvious cockiness. Probably because the first time I told her off was over the same daydreaming issue. I minus well let my anger slide though. The last thing I want is to get in trouble. Being on my little probation and all.

"Opps, my bad." I tucked a strand of pink hair back into my bun. " I will try not to do it again." My lips forcefully tried to pull downwards as I made a " polite" or an "well-mannered" smile. But the twitching that I felt most likely gave away that it was fake. All in all she gave me the exact same smile; loving every moment.

"That's right, cause if you do I will have to send you to the freshman's councilors for slacking." She then sat down at her desk. " But you deserve a weeks worth of detention. "

Bite my lip and fake it.

My eye twitched in annoyance. Teachers and their damn superiority, they think that they are all that.

"Looks like she can't handle the heat." A voice mumbled.

"I know right man, look at her! Mussel as pink as her fur." An audible high-five was exchanged between the two as did laughter and snickers of others.

"You know I can hear you right?" I looked down at the light brown, wooden desk. I knew not making eye-contact would at least give me a reason not to smash their face's in.

"Sorry Ames, thought you were daydreaming" A slight pause was made" ...again"

Ames... I swallowed and clenched my eyes shut trying not to believe it... Sonic?

(3rd p.o.v)

"Oh and by the way, next time you try to talk to me in the hallway don't be a pussy and run away. It was really annoying. If you wanted a date all you had to do is ask. But I probably would of denied it anyway." A smirk was placed on Sonic's face when he looked at Amy who was leaning over her desk. He saw that she was clenching and unclenching her hands. Ice glazed over his eyes and his nose started to crinkle in disgust.

"Oh shiiiiaaaat!" A red fox hooted just above a whisper.

"She just got told," Someone said snickering into the palm of his hand.

"Haha! She must have her feewing hurt. Let's cool it befow she wuns to her mama and dada. " he mocked in a babys' voice.

Amy didn't have one tear sliding down her face. She knew that she did try to talk to Sonic today but couldn't. So she was a pussy for that. But to think that he was being such an asshole was the thing that pissed her off. So yeah, she wasn't crying. It may of looked like it because of her shaking but that was from holding it all in.

"Yeah, let us stop. " Sonic said. He looked at Amy with blank eyes. " She might kill us in our sleep." He frowned when he spoke that. Not only was there a frown but his voice held pure distaste like if he saw a cockroach swimming in his cereal. " Crazy bitch." A few more laughters were exchanged till they stoped.

Everything soon went silent. The only thing that could be heard were the pencils on paper. But if listened closely, finally a tear fell from Amy's face.

X.x.X

Amy sat there unwanted by happiness. She could feel herself sinking into a pitiful state. The more and more she tried to wipe away the tears falling down her face twenty-times more fell out. She didn't want to constantly keep sniffing and rubbing them away. Especially in this class! But emotions always puts up the toughest of fights.

"So, I did hurt your feeling. That's a relief." Sonic looked from his book to his paper rechecking if he wrote the problem down right. " I bet you never thought about how it might feel to get hurt huh? Being the way you are and all." He set his pencil down neatly on his desk.

Amy sat there ignoring him. She was trying to finish her last problem so she wouldn't have the extra homework but she couldn't help but listen to his tiny whispers. Amy eyes slowly closed and she took a deep breath and then let it out.

"Sto-op talking to-o me." Amy's voice creeked. She silently cursed herself for sounding like she was gasping for a bit of air. It was not the best time to be sounding weak.

Sonic simply looked down at his pencil and picked it up. He twirled it between his two fingers out of boredom.

" Algebra was always too easy for me. I mean if I didn't skip it last year I wouldn't even need to take two math classes. Huh... What a waste of time." Sonic tsk tsked while shaking his head. " What I am saying is that I need something to keep math class interesting and you were lucky enough to be my Queen of entertainment."

Amy placed her pencil down and turned to Sonic. He too was turned toward her taking her by surprise. Amy's eyes waterfalled down to her lap.

"If you want to say something then just say-"

"Leave me the fuck alone." There were no ripples or uncertainty in Amy's voice. The message to anyone came out as clear as day.

"Leave me the fuck alone?" Sonic leaned toward Amy's face. She could feel his breath tickle her nose. Her eyes went up as a glare but once met with those beautiful, green orbs her glare began to waver. Sonic simply smirked.

" How about no. " a blush formed on her face.

"Sonic, please get away from me." Sonic leaned back into his seat. He raised an eyebrow at her.

"From your blush I thought you liked the closeness. Or am I too sexy that your body can't hold itself back and you don't want everyone to hear you moaning?" Amy eyes went a blazed as she moved closer to Sonic. He looked at her unfazed, like a toothless baby was trying to attack him. He put his hand on her lap and leaned forward too.

"Leave me alone." Amy said once again. Sonic rolled his eyes with a smirk. Amy could almost attack him right here and now.

" What makes you think you could tell me what to do?" Sonic cocked his head to the left. " Oooh, is it because of that little secret of yours? Do you expect me to be screaming for mercy like everyone else?" Sonic's voice was playful but Amy knew he wasn't taking what he said lightly. " Reality check, I am not one of those people."

"I never sai- "

Riiiiiing

"Later." Sonic shoved his things in his backpack and quickly left the room. Sonic friends followed in pursuit while glancing back at Amy chuckling.

Amy sat there squinting her eyes while shoving things angrily in her backpack.

"What was that all about hun?" Rouge walked up toward Amy and leaned her hip on her desk.

"Did you not hear any of it?"

"Well I couldn't since I was moved completely away from you." Rouge laughed a little bit. " but seriously, I thought you and Sonic were," She moved her hand up to her neck and pretended to slash it.

"We are! " Amy abruptly stood up causing Rouge to step back with a worried look. " He just started to make fun of me out of no where, then said I was his entertainment for this class, and then started to flirt with me!" Amy walked toward the door with hurried steps, Rouge, hot on her tail. " I mean what and who does he think he is. Especially after what he..." Amy trailed off not wanting to talk about that night. Now wanting to bring up questions of the reason why.

"Well Sonic is immature, maybe it is his way of saying sorry?" Rouge shrugged her shoulders. "Don't sweat it Amy. Anyway, I have got to be on my way. You know how Mrs. Linkton is with tardies. See ya!" Rouge strutted away with her tail hanging high. Amy smirked and turned the other way. Maybe Rouge was right. What if there was really nothing to worry about?

"Oh! Amy doll!" A high and mature voice swindled its way into Amy's ears. Amy looked up annoyed as she knew exactly who was coming her way.

"I don't have time for you Sally." Sally placed a hand over her heart and pretended to be hurt.

"Ow ,Amy, how rude of you. I just wanted to say hi." She pushed out her bottom lip and faked a sad face. Amy scowled.

"What do you really want Chipmunk?" Sally's smile dropped among hearing that name.

"Well if you most know, I just wanted to invite you to my party. You and I should really be friends." Sally said in a all to happy tone.

Amy rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. Time was ticking and she really had to go.

"Sure, whatever." She then began to walk away but was soon stopped by petite hands.

"Wait, you need the info. You've never been to my humble home before. " she reached in her bag slowly while Amy started tapping. "Here you g-"

"Thanks!" Amy snatched the letter out of her hand and started to run to her next class.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Amy knew very well what Sally was thinking.

Amy soon entered her next class and took her seat by Shadow.

" How are things going, Rose?" Shadow side eyed Amy. She smiled at him.

"Everything is fine. How about you?" Amy asked. Shadow chest moved up and down as he chuckled.

" I can't complain now that you are here."

Amy tilted her head up and laughed. " Shadow, I say, are you flirting with me." Amy tiled her head toward Shadow.

" Of course not. But you seem thrilled by the idea."

"Class quiet down! Time for English!" Mr. Leevoon yelled.

Amy gave one last smile to Shadow. Maybe she was coming off too fake though. She was just happy that he wasn't judging her for her past. More like trying to help and she really did appreciate it.

Amy took out a piece of paper with a pencil and copied down the sentence she need to fix from the board.

My love for you is like a sunflower always following the brightest lightest glory to keep me alive.

"Sheb bwat!" Silvers shouted with a spoon

full of chile in his mouth.

"Silver!" Blaze wiped off the chille plus spit that escaped his foul mouth. Silver looked at Blaze.

"Oh shwiit! Shorry Blaze." She was hit with another wave of garlic, beans, powder, and DNA. Blaze scowled as Silver whimpered away.

"Shut up Silv," Rouge then turned to Amy. " Now what was it hun" Tails and Cream slowly lifted up their spoon to their mouths, paying close attention."

"She invited me to a party. But of course I don't want to go." She poked her salad with a fork.

"Giiiiiirl! Of course you are going!" Rouge yelled out.

"Rouge! Stop acting like you are the mom of everyone!" Knuckles said annoyed

Rouge put a hand in his face, making him even more irritatated.

" Don't pass up the opportunity to stand her up on her own turf. I will even accompany you!" Rouge encouraged with a delighted tone.

" I don't think you received a invitation though." Shadow mumbled.

"What? Can't bring a few friends? That is just crude don't you think?" Silver chimed back in.

"It is Sally, Silver." Blaze said.

"Yeah, but what is she going to do? Turn us down? " Rouge said.

"Yes, huh... " Knuckles placed his head on the table exhausted already by his already so active girlfriend.

"I say let Amy decide." Cream quiet voice chirped.

"Yeah, like she is the one who got the invite."

Amy looked at all of then as their eyes finally landed on hers. Amy shivered a bit out of discomfort.

"Fine, I don't really care. The more the merier! " Amy squeaked.

Rouge suddenly stood up and clapped her hands. Startling the tables by her. " Then it is settled!"

"Oh god, please ,Rouge, sit down." Knuckles said.

"Booo-yaaa!" Silver also rose up and held his hand up for Rouge to half-five. Which she happily returned.

Amy and the rest looked down embarresed.

Looks like Amy wasn't in it alone this time.
