Chapter 8 is finally up! Just to let you know there will probably be only a couple more chapters after this because of school starting and the plot coming to an end. May be a sequel, but I haven't decided yet.

So Enjoy!! Or whatever…

When a rose buds

Chapter 8: Finding out

Sally's POV:

"Where is Sonic? I mean he's been with his friends all the time. I'm more important than they are right?" I pace furiously around my throne room looking for some kind of answer within the silence. Quiet footfalls come to my ears; I turn and see a mysterious figure in a black cloak next to the cherry wood doors.

"It may seem that way princess, but things are not as they appear" A woman I can tell by her voice a quiet bell like sound. It sounds familiar, but I can't place it.

"Who are you? And what are talking about?" She laughs.

"A friend and I'm talking about your supposedly loyal boyfriend Sonic."

"What about him?" I retort my voice filled with as much venom as I could possibly muster.

"I wanted to let her majesty know that he got some pink-haired girl pregnant" I can hear the smile in her voice. Wait a minute! Did she just say pink-haired as in Amy?

You have to be kidding me! He slept with her! No wonder she ran to the bathroom that day. I want it gone and I want it gone now! I'm going to kill him.

"Wait! How do you know this?" I call to the girl as she turns to leave.

"I saw them at the hospital about a month ago and it was pretty obvious she was pregnant." My blood is boiling "I would have told you sooner, but your security is really tight they wouldn't let me in."

"Well if you're really a friend and this information is legitimate show me who you really are" I command.

"Very well majesty" She pulls down the hood on the cloak to reveal herself.

A stroke of remembrance hits me. A very old friend indeed.

"Ah, it's you…"

Meanwhile with Amy…

Amy's POV:

"Hey Ames, what color do you want the invitations to be?" Rouge called from my living room.

Wow my baby shower isn't for two months and their already planning it.

"Oh, I don't know…yellow?" I have no idea what the baby is yet so it's hard to pick a color.

"Okay"

I finish my peanut butter and jelly sandwich and walk (or should I say waddle) to the living room. Rouge, Sadie, and Cream sit in a circle on the white carpet floor with paper clippings, tape, and gold glitter scattered about.

"You know my shower isn't for another two months, and we have to keep it quiet as possible" I pause "Knowing you guys you would send one to Sally by mistake."

They laugh. I shake my head and walk up to my room. This kids' taking away all the energy I have…

Back with Sally

Sally's POV:

My hand grips the end of my chair so hard my knuckles seem to show through my pale skin.

Snap!

"Ouch!" I look to my hand to see my ring finger-nail hanging on by a thread. Shit I just had those done!

She's going to pay, but how? Well I'll figure that out later. I have a headache and my finger is bleeding…

----------------------------------------------------------------------
