Hello! Looks like enough of you wanted more! ;) I posted this under a different story earlier and took it down after I realized you aren't supposed to put lyrics in these, so if you are one of the few who already read this, sorry!

I own nothing. Inspired by: My Last Breath- Evanescence

No one could have guessed this would happen. She had a feeling, but she chose to ignore it. Now, she's paying for it as she thinks about what she could have done differently.

It started out as another day, another attempt for world domination. They were there, as usual, to stop Eggman: Sonic, Amy, Knuckles, and Tails. Something felt different this time, though. Amy couldn't explain it. It was just a feeling she had in her gut. Like something big was going to happen. Whether it was good or bad, she's wasn't sure, and that scared her.

She ignored it, however, and followed her friends into battle. Things went well at first. Sonic and Knuckles were dealing with Eggman's latest invention, while she and Tails dealt with the smaller, more annoying robots. She had her trustworthy hammer and made the robots seem like they were made of tin cans. She was just on her way to go help Tails out when the larger robot swung its arm to hit the blue blur, only to hit the pink hedgehog and it sent her flying through a building window.

"Amy!" Sonic called out to her. Not playing around anymore, he spin-dashed right through whatever-Eggman-called-it-this-time and rushed over to her side.

As soon as she hit the ground, she knew something was not right. She felt more pain than she should've in her left side. The uneasy feeling she felt earlier increased. This was it. This was the big change.

She heard a worried, "Amy!" and felt a gust of wind. When she opened her eyes, she found her hero standing over her, worry plastered all over his face. She tried to sit up, but the intense pain in her side stopped her.

"Are ya okay?" He went to help her up, but he stopped when he noticed a growing red puddle on the floor. Feeling her side wet and warm, she lifted her head to look at it. She saw the transparent material of glass, the shard embedded deep into her side. She also saw the rapidly growing pool of blood. She had enough medical knowledge to know that from the rate she was loosing blood, she had cut something important. This was fatal. What she feared was confirmed: the big change was her death.

"We need to get you to a hospital!" Sonic had barely moved her when she yelled out in agony. He immediately backed off, afraid of hurting her more. How he wished he had a chaos emerald right then.

Now here she lays, thinking she should have listened to her gut and had stayed home or had been more careful. She quickly realizes there is no point in spending her last moments regretting what she didn't do, so Amy remembers what she has done in her life: meeting her wonderful friends, helping save the world countless times, and finding the love of her life. Sure he might not feel the same for her, but that never stopped her. She would do anything for that blue hedgehog.

She turns to her blue hero. "Sonniku, you can't save me this time." She smiles sadly at him. He shakes his head furiously.

"Don't talk like that! You're going to be fine!" He quickly scoops her up and runs toward the hospital, ignoring the others questioning glance and her blood as it hits his legs and stains his fur. Only a few seconds pass before Amy is panting and clinging onto him, about to black out. Afraid she might black out for good, Sonic screeches to a stop and holds still, keeping her in his arms. She is so pale, but he doesn't know what to do! Running will kill her, staying will kill her, and waiting will kill her!

Amy opens her eyes and sees they are in the middle of her favorite park, right next to its small lake. Not a bad place to die, especially compared to the last place they were just at.

"Sonic?" She asks softly.

"Yeah?" His voice is strained and panicked, still wracking his brain on what to do.

"Will you finally tell me what you feel for me? I don't care if it's not what I want to hear, I just want to know before I go." She lifts her head to look up at him. For the first time ever, she hopes he sees her as a friend. Her death will be hard on him, but it will be even harder if he has more-than-friends feelings for her.

He gives her a pained look. "Amy, you have to be okay. Please, just hang on!" He starts to walk towards the hospital again, determined to save her.

"Sonic, please." She whispers and lays her head against his chest, it getting harder to keep her head up.

He notices her fading strength, forcing him to come to grips: she's moments away from death. Amy is dying, and there isn't a damn thing he can do about it. He halts his steps as his ears lower and his eyes water.

"Please, Sonic..." He hears her barely audible voice. For years she's chased him, proclaiming her love and expecting him feel the same. Truth be told, he never knew what the hell he felt for the pink hedgehog. He enjoyed her company, but he also feared being tied down. There were days when he worried about her when she was in harm's way, just like he would any other of his friends, but then there were the days where she had some really close calls. Those shook him up more than he let on. It scared him more than water, as he proved when he saved her from drowning back in Chris' world. He never even noticed the water. His focus was solely on her and her safety. It was those days that made him doubt if she was just a friend.

So, he ran from the headache of figuring it out. He hoped it would become clear to him on its own someday, rather than him having to figure it out for himself. Like, maybe he'd suddenly realize something about her and suddenly things would click into place for him. Something simple like that.

Maybe this is his punishment for his laziness, because as he looks at and holds the dying Amy in his arms, things do click into place. He never wanted to find out this way though. It took her dying to finally sort out his feelings. Guilt floods into him, coursing through his veins and eating away at him.

"Ames," He says in a strained voice, tears escaping his eyes. He decides to answer directly. She deserves at least that much. "I do love you. I have for a long time, but I was an idiot and never realized it until now." Shame is laced in his voice. So many years wasted, just because he didn't want find out and be tied down. He knows now that he wouldn't have been tied down. No, instead, he would have had even more to live and fight for. A lot of good this does him now, though. Words and feelings can't heal her.

He feels liquid on his chest where her head is. "Thank you. I love you too." She sniffles, joy and sorrow both in her voice. His words fill her with more joy than she expected, but she also fears what will become of him. She struggles to lift her head back up and look at him. Sonic, using one arm to keep a hold of her, lifts her head for her and presses his forehead against hers, tears flowing freely down his cheeks.

"Promise me something." She looks deep into his emerald eyes.

"Anything." His voice cracks.

"Live for me. Do everything I can't and have no regrets. I'll be waiting for you to tell me all about it." Tears of her own fall. "Promise me." She pleads.

"I-I'll try." How can he live after this? He feels like he's dying with her, not sure if there will be enough left of him to continue living once she's gone.

Amy smiles briefly before it drops into a grimace of pain and she pants laboriously.

"Goodbye... Sonic." Her vibrant jade eyes slowly begin to dull. He crashes his lips against hers, not wanting to waste the precious seconds he has left with her. He releases all his passion, their kiss filled with love and grief. Way too soon, he feels her lips still and her body relax, staying motionless. He buries his face in her neck, his body starting to shake. He drops to his knees and hugs her body close.

"I love you Amy! Please don't go!" He begs desperately into her neck, knowing she can't hear him.

She's gone.

Sonic stays there, holding Amy's body and crying, until Tails and Knuckles find him twenty minutes later. Their curiosity about what he's doing there is quickly replaced with dread as they hear his cries of grief. They rush up to the blue hedgehog and see the motionless pink body in his arms. Tails immediately begins to sob, already knowing what's got the blue hero so distraught, while Knuckles stands there and stares in shock at her body. Sonic doesn't even notice their presence. Why should he, when he just lost his love?

It was when someone touched his shoulder that he noticed people where there. They're going to take her away. He springs to his feet with Amy still in his arms and whirls around to face whoever is there.

"Don't touch her!" Sonic snarls at the figures, his quills standing up. They won't take her away.

"Sonic." A familiar voice chokes out in sorrow. The voice snaps Sonic out of his thoughts, and he sees the tear-stained face of Tails and Knuckles once the figures become clear. His friends. He looks down at Amy's peaceful face. Her friends too.

"She's gone." He says lowly, voice filled with anguish. "Gone."

Things were never the same again. The crew grieved for weeks, but no one took it as hard as Sonic did. For the first three months he was basically a zombie, wandering around with no emotion or purpose. It was during a confrontation from his friends when he remembered his promise to Amy. He would continue to live life. For her.

Sonic didn't even blame Eggman for her death. He knew it wouldn't bring her back. Sonic was always there to stop Eggman when he attacked the city, but he wasted no time in destroying the new inventions. No more taunting, no more name calling, just business. Eggman immediately noticed the change in the blue hedgehog, he even felt bad for his old nemesis, and he ceased his quest for world domination. He knew he couldn't ever achieve his goal without Sonic dying first, and, even though he's been a pest to him for many years, Eggman didn't want things to come down to that.

Sonic, years later, tried to see if he could find love again, he even dated his old crush Sally Acorn, but, no matter how charming the other women were, they just weren't Amy. Sonic adopted two kids since he couldn't bare the thought of having kids with another woman, and he raised them like Amy would've wanted him to.

Now here he sits, decades later and under the shade of a tree, listening to the sway of the grass as he thinks about the past years. He did what she had asked. He lived as happily as he could, not having any regrets other than the time he wasted not being with Amy. No matter. She's waiting for him.

Sonic feels his time coming. He's more than ready to go. Sure he'll miss his kids and grandkids, but he's been waiting for this day since she said she would wait for him. He's in the same spot where she died all those years ago.

As he takes one last deep breath, he he hears her giggle and call his name. He smiles, the sound like music to his ears.

'I'm coming, Amy.'

Aren't I cruel? Making the last one happy and this one sad? hehe...
