When a rose buds
Chapter 9: Shower
Sonic's POV:
Is it just me? Or is Sally up to something? I just keep getting this feeling something bad is going to happen today. Oh well probably nothing…
Today's the day of Amy's shower. Sadie and Rouge are forcing me to go. My question is isn't it just for chicks? I'm not going to argue though afraid of what happens to me if I do.
I get out of the shower, grab my towel, and head to my closet. A random green t-shirt, khaki shorts, and sneakers are the perfect outfit for a spring day like this (it's May). Lately it's been unseasonably warm, but no one seems to be complaining.
I have to pick Amy up because obviously Sadie and Rouge are decorating as little as possible. I pull into Amy's small driveway and walk to the ebony door. The door opens to reveal Amy with a bright smile on her face in a bright yellow spaghetti strap dress that came to her knees. The softball sized lump that once was a few months ago was replaced by what looked like a basketball had been shoved up her dress.
"You ready to go Ames?" She laughs.
"Yeah, but are you?" Ah yes surrounded by a swarm of giggling, cooing, and crazed women oh yes what an awesome way to spend a Saturday. I shrug and she grabs my hand. I blush. Over the past 8 months Amy and I have bonded quite a bit, and I always get a strange feeling when she touches me.
I help her into the car 'cause lets face it with that belly she can't get in on her own. She hits the seat with a small thud and lets out an exasperated sigh. I stifle a laugh as she gives me the death glare.
The shower is supposed to be a secret, but you can hear the loud music and see the yellow streamers all over the house. So much for secret…
We enter Rouge's door; she comes over and hugs Amy as tight as she can, then drags her to the living room. Out of the corner of my eye I see Cream giving me a questioning look. I ignore it and head towards the living room.
Amy sits on the couch between Sadie and Rouge opening a light blue package. I begin walking over to Amy only to trip over the coffee table. My chin hits the floor with a muffled thud right in front of Amy.
The whole room burst into a fit of laughter along with comments that hopefully the baby won't be gifted with my 'grace'. Yeah, that's a major hit to my ego…
"Sonic, are you okay?"
-------------------------
Amy's POV:
Its funny one minute I'm opening a present and the next Sonic hits the floor right in front of me knocking the little outfit out of my hand. I begin to laugh hysterically then put my hand over my mouth when he doesn't get up right away.
"Sonic, are you okay?" I say through my laughter.
He nods and slowly sits upright next to my legs on the floor. He hands me a random present and I look to where it originated; a large mountain of presents in the corner beside him.
Fun…
One hour later
Outfits, binkies, and bibs galore. I finally make it to the last present; a small box with beautiful baby blue wrapping paper. On closer inspection I had no name tag.
"Who's this from you guys?" I look around the room to see shrugs and shaking of heads.
"Me" I gasp and my heart starts to race.
This is really not my day…
------------------------
Sonic's POV:
"Me" I look over and my blood runs cold. Sally. She's not alone either; flanked by who I recognized as the nurse from the hospital. Kelsey I think her name was and a strawberry-blonde girl I've never seen before.
"S-sally, what are you doing here?" Her eyes narrow.
"Oh I thought I'd see how the slut was doing" She turns her attention towards Amy who gives her a quiet retort 'you should talk'.
"How the hell did you get into my house, or find out about this?" Rouge shouts over the silence and gets up from the couch ready for a fight. Sadie stood next to her in front of Amy.
"Well, one your door is unlocked and for a jewel thief you really don't know how to protect the things you stole" Rouge's face went from the tan that it usually was to beat red in a matter of seconds.
"For your information princess I work for those things unlike you who just sits on her throne all day ordering other people to do the work for her."
Sally ignores the comment and gets ready for another round.
"And two I found out from my friend here" The strawberry-blonde steps forward with a grin on her face.
"Sonic I'd like you to meet Natalie if it wasn't for her you might have gotten away with your little plan."
Amy gasps and I look to her. She stands up and motions Sadie to the side.
"You're the one who was giving me dirty looks at the hospital that day" Natalie starts to laugh.
"Yeah, for two good reasons" she takes a breath "One I knew Sonic was cheating on Sally and two Joseph and I have been trying to have a baby for two years and you get pregnant in one shot it's not fair."
Sally puts her hand in front of her mouth to shut her up when that goal is accomplished she turns to me.
"Alright Sonic since I really love you I'll give you a second chance" The room goes silent till she speaks again "It's either me or her, your choice."
I look between Amy and Sally. She wants an answer now? No I-I can't it's too hard. I've never been so afraid in my life so I do the only thing I know. Run. Run far away from there I need some time to think…
