But anyway, after the kiss what happened then? Everybody wants to know what's to happen now, well here it is.

Needed Me- Rihanna

Chapter 11: Snow

Sally was sitting in the couch of her living room, legs stretched out comfortably and eyes glued to her phone. It was a peaceful night without her parents' home and the household under her control. The time was about to hit eleven and she still wasn't tired.

The doorbell sounded and her head rose. She raised an eyebrow and swung her feet up and off the couch standing. She walked lazily up to her door a few meters away. She could see a figure through her crystal-made door but because it was dark she couldn't make out who it was.

Sally opened the door to a strong blow of wind. Sally blocked her face shivering and when she peeked out Sonic was in front of her carrying someone on his back. There were small snowflakes on his fur and Sally's eyes widened. "What the?! Sonic?"

"I need your help,"

With a simply look ofpermission, she stepped to the side and allowed him to enter. That's when she was able to see the pink color that belonged to none other than Amy. Sally's words quelled in her throat and she was left jaw-slacked. Sally closed the door and joined Sonic's side her hands wanting to reach out to help, but she didn't know how?

"Are your parents home?" Sonic asked, reached the couch inside the large white living room. He turned around bending his back down so he could place Amy down carefully. The flakes disappeared off their heads and their bodies were growing warmer. Amy groaned, her feebly eyes opening slightly.

"What now?" She groaned sounding irritable.

"No, they're staying at a hotel for the night." She said distantly still surprised of the situation.

"That's good," Sonic glanced at her side-long. "Sorry, for coming like this."

"No it's fine," Sally said, unconsciously. Those weren't the words she should be saying, but she didn't know where to start. Sonic understood she was confused and so he sighed and scratched his head.

"I've got some explaining to do, huh." he chuckled dryly.

Sally went on her knees in front of Amy and pushed off some quills off her face and positioned her on her back comfortably. Amy squinted at her and then smiled. "You're soo purdy,"

That's when she smelled it. "What did you do to her?"

"Wha-what do you take me for?" Sonic gasped affronted.

"She smells of alcohol !" Sally exclaimed in dismay. "Did you take her drinking you jerk?!"

'How did I end up a jerk?' he jadedly wondered. "I didn't do this to her." He explained. "Jet did."

The name itself caused damage into Sally's brown eyes and she stared up at him appalled. Sonic went over to the other couch and sat down with a ragged sigh.

"Wait, then why are you with her?" She said sounding confused.

"There's a reason for that…" He muttered avoiding her gaze when he said that but his eyes shifted back. "But first Amy. Can she stay here for the night? I can't take her home like this."

"Yea, but you've got to tell me everything. I don't understand." She said and Sonic nodded. With that, Sally stood up and rushed out of the living room. "Be right back."

(:xXx:)

Sally sat Amy up to helped her drink some water. Sally fed her bread with celery and tomato soup to sober her just a bit if anything. Gladly, Amy never felt the need to throw up and soon fell asleep. Through that time Sonic had clearly explained everything that'd happen and why Sonic was with Amy. Sally listened thoroughly gaping most of the time. When Sonic finished Sally, although understanding, couldn't really believe everything he'd told her.

"So you're telling me you live in Amy's house, because you're parents are getting married making you guys step siblings. Um and you guys kept it a secret from school but somehow Jet found out?" She said, her eyes roaming around in thought.

"No, I don't think Jet knows, but I'm guessing he found out about some notes I handed to Amy. She lost them and Mina found it, Amy said. Jet must have taken it from her." Sonic explained still sitting on the couch.

Sally bit her lip and turned her gaze towards Amy who slept peacefully, lightly snoring. Sally nodded understanding. "So they're both behind this," Sally chuckled ominously. "To think they'd scoop this low. Man, if it weren't for you Amy would've been in trouble."

Sonic raised an eyebrow. "I highly doubt that. She smacked Jet off with some hammer of hers before I got to do anything,"

"A hammer? While drunk?" Sally questioned baffled.

"The drunk are scary." Sonic chuckled dryly and stood up from the couch. "Anyway, I'm going back home. Her dad's probably wondering where she is."

"What are you going to tell him?"

"Amy originally said she went to a friend's house to study. It's snowing hard right now so I'll just say she stayed over cause of it." He said, but Sally shook her head.

"But it's stormy out there and if you arrive home, knowing you're mom, she'll wonder why you didn't pick her up or something." Sally laughed with a grin.

"Good point," he said. "Then can I stay over too?"

"Oh yes! Sleepover! We can all share my room!" Sally chippered, rising up from the couch next to Amy. "Carry Amy upstairs."

Sonic got his phone out. "First let me call my mom."

Sally stared at him as he dialed his mom's number and when he placed the phone in his ear.

Sally spoke in a hinting tease, "You're doing a lot for one girl. Are you sure it's cause of your mom."

Sonic gaze at her his fazed eyes squinting. "Trust me it is."

"But lying to your mom isn't like you,"

"Who said anything about lying? She just won't be told any extra details." He said and then a small voice was heard from the phone. "Hey, mom,"

The snowfall that was said to be light and beautiful turned harsh and strong overnight and continued on towards the next day. It was dawn and Amy slept on Sally's bed while Sally took the small couch near her. Sonic leaned on a wall near the window pane with arms crossed over his chest. Outside, the strong winds howled creating a loud whistling sound which woke up Amy from her sleep. She blinked her eyes a few times before groaning and sitting up from the bed. Her head and eyes throbbed and she felt nauseous.

Her eyes adjusted to the darkness and the first thing she saw were green eyes glowering at her. She could've sworn it glowed with angry.

Amy didn't move. She didn't move for what seemed a long while. Confused and aching she didn't know if she was really seeing Sonic in front of her.

"Sonic?" She barely whispered.

Sonic's eyes narrowed even more. He got off the windowpane. By then Amy was inspecting the area and came to realize she wasn't at the party anymore. That Jet and Mina were gone and that she was sitting on an unknown bed in a room she didn't recognize. Sonic took a quick look at Sally, but the girl was in a deep slumber.

"W-what happened?" Amy asked alerted. She covered her body with the sheets but Sonic hushed her.

"Can you stand?" He whispered, leaning in close to her and she blushed moving away. It took a moment for her to respond.

"I…yea,"

"Follow me," He moved back.

It was like she went under his control, his spell, where she did exactly as he told her. She uncovered herself and stepped out of bed. The light snoring from the couch made her flinch. A mobian was sleeping but was covered by a blanket so she didn't know who it was. She followed Sonic outside the room without questioning. The household was dark and quiet with the sounds of their shoes making the only source of noise. Sonic's intention was to bring Amy away from Sally's room and downstairs to the living room.

"Sit down," He told her and she did on the same couch she was laid upon last night. But she didn't know that.

"First things first, how do you feel? Do you remember anything from last night?"

"I'm dizzy," Amy blinked groggily. Was he not mad at her, she thought. She began to think about last even as her head hurt. "I went to the party. We were having a good time. Music. Dancing. Jet and Nack talking to me. Uh I think I saw Mina pouring powder on her drink and…." She gasped. "Jet was angry I think. I don't remember it."

Sonic's tensed muscles relaxed when he didn't hear her mention the kiss. The memory was vivid and he could still feel the taste of alcohol in his mouth. That aside, Sonic had heard enough to understand one thing. The powder she explained Mina poured wasn't for her drink, but for Amy. What she poured in. "Anything else?"

Amy was quiet for a moment and with her expression unchanged she shook her head. Sonic stared at Amy with such a disapproving yet relieving look that Amy didn't need words for her to understand that he wasn't happy with her.

"Where am I?" She suddenly asked actually wanting to know. For a living room, it was luxurious. The couches, the walls, the expansion of the room looked too expensive.

"Sally's house. She let us stay over." He stated then added sharply. "Because you were too drunk to go home."

"D-Drunk!?" She exclaimed her voices echoing on the walls. Sonic put his finger on his lips shushing her.

"Sally's sleeping. Speak softly." He said in a warning tone.

"Sorry," She whispered astonished. "Wait, so I was drunk? But I don't remember drinking anything," Her voice trailed off her sentence sounding bad. "I mean, I know I wouldn't. I've never touched alcohol in my entire life."

"You can't say that anymore. Last night Mina probably put some kind of powder on your drink. She didn't have it, she gave it to you. Maybe then you had a little something to drink. That's why you can't remember," He said, crossing his arms.

"Mina wouldn't do that. She's nice and sweet to me." Amy defended.

"Mina is? You just met her. You barely know her." Sonic rebutted sharply.

"B-But Jet said we were all friends. That Mina invited me to her party," Her wavering voice stammered.

"Jet lied to you!" Sonic spat in a low voice unable to take anymore of Amy defending them. "He lied to you from the very start! That wasn't Mina's party. That was Jet's. Jet's parents own a penthouse and villa and you were giving him money. You didn't lose your notes Jet took them and handed it to Mina so she'd meet you. It was all a set up."

His words felt something close to that of a head slice like in the ninja/samurai movies, but this was much worst. Everything inside her, her feelings, her ideal thoughts, everything was crushed, to the point where breathing became difficult, but her expression gradually rallied. "Oh," was all she said.

Sonic clicked his tongue to the side calming down. He'd lost himself there. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to yell."

"It's fine." Her voice was empty startling Sonic. "I needed that,"

Sonic inspected her face. It showed a blank expression almost dead, but there were no tears in her eyes and her lips didn't quiver.

"It's best to stay away from them. They aren't what you call friends."

Another stab to her heart. "It did feel good, though." She managed a broken smile. Sonic sighed sitting next to her as she added, "To have friends like them."

"No," Sonic said. "Don't think of that as a friendship. Think of it as a lesson. A friend is someone who won't put friendship before you're principles. They'll look out for you and support you,"

Amy glanced sidelong at him with her broken smile gone. The blank expression was gone too. Sonic offered her a small genuine smile. Amy returned it and that relieved Sonic. "Like you."

Sonic head flinched but he still kept his smile. He avoided looking at her recalling what he told her last night. "Yea. Like me."

Her heart contracted. A small blush formed on her cheeks and allowed the warm feeling to overcome in her stomach. It may have been stated officially now, but both of them, somewhere in their hearts, knew that their friendship grew over time, when they least expected it.

"Amy, what's your number?" Sonic suddenly asked.

"Y-You want my number?!"

"Yea, to better look after an idiot." He razzed while still being somewhat serious.

Amy frowned. "What?!"

Sonic shushed her still keeping in mind that Sally was sleeping. Although upstairs, near the stairs, Sally leaned her back on a wall hearing everything. She had her hands covering a wide smile on her lips and her eyes beamed avidly.

There was talk at school. Eyes watched Sonic's table carefully not believing their eyes. The big shocker it threw everyone into when they spotted Amy, the flunk girl, sitting on the same table as them confidently. Unlike before, the atmosphere when she sat with them was awkward and tensing making her leave early or sit quietly in the edge of the seat. Now Amy sat next to Sally talking to everyone. She managed to get into a conversation with Knuckles for the first time.

Sonic glanced up briefly at her laughing as Knuckle told her and Silver a joke. Sally eyed him from across the table grinning. Sonic felt Sally's intensive stare for a while and closed his eyes re-opening them over at her.

Sally's grin widened when his attention was at her. Her eyebrows rose up and down conspiratorially. He raised a quizzical eyebrow, but she didn't cease the grin.

"Sonic?" A girl came to the table with a small snow glob in her hands. Sonic turned to the little pigtail chinchilla and blinked.

"Yea?"

"I-I was wondering if you'd be my partner for the winter dance?" she asked shyly her hands out gesturing for him to take the globe.

The table went silent and everyone eyed Sonic. A drop of sweat appeared on his head and Sonic chuckled dryly. "I'm sorry, but I don't plan on going."

Disappointed the girl bit her lip looking away. "Oh, okay. I'm sorry for bothering you."

The girl left leaving the table's eyes gleaming at Sonic. Sonic glared back. "What?!"

"Liar. You're going!" Knuckles said. Sonic rolled his eyes.

"So it's back again." Tails chirped. "I'm definitely going."

"Me too! I love the school's fruit punch." Silver added with a nod.

"I don't plan on going," Sonic repeated quietly.

Amy leaned close to Sally whispering. "What was up with the snow globe?"

"Oh. You didn't know? If you want to go with a partner you have to offer a snow globe and hey have to agree." Sally explained loud enough for the table to hear.

"Say, Amy, have you gone to the winter dance?" Knuckles asked curiously.

Amy shook her head. "Never had the chance."

Sally's eyes shifted over to Sonic with a mischievously look. Sonic got the hint that she was fiercely trying to convey something, but he'd rather not know. Ignoring her by looking to the side Sally growled.

"Want to come with us?" He asked and Amy sat straight up. "It's a school event but it's actually pretty chill. Good music. Good food."

"Oh, do I need to give you a snow globe?" Amy asked innocently. Knuckles and Silver burst into laughter with Sally giggled. She leaned her chin on her hand looking at her sideways. "No, giving a snow globe to someone is like asking them on a date."

"Like? It is asking them on a date," Tails corrected.

"Oh. But yea, I wanna go." Amy agreed eyes beaming. "When is it?"

"Before New Year's," Silver paused muttering, "I think. Or was it the day of?"

"It's on New Year's eve." Sally reassured, eyes going back to Sonic and Sonic looked back with a fake smirk.

"Is there something you want to say?" Sonic asked his tone annoyed.

"No, nothing at all," She returned the same furious look. Amy giggled finding it funny and closed her lunchbox. She stood up from the table at the same time Sonic did with his tray. They paused for a second to exchange glances but continued to get out from the bench.

"Ooo, where you two going?" Sally asked curiously.

They both spoke in unison. "I'm going to my locker" "My Locker."

Startled, they faced each other. Their lockers were near each other. Sally smirked while Knuckles and Tails laughed and Silver tilted his head. Silver stood up. "I'll accompo—gah!"

Sally kicked Silver under the table but turned to the two hedgehogs.

"Well, go along then," Sally said her hands shooing them off. Sonic didn't mind it too much, but Amy tried her hardest to suppress a blush and failed miserably. Sonic walked ahead first with Amy following behind him.

"The hell was that for!?" Silver complained sitting back down and rubbing his leg. Knuckles tapped this shoulder as to comfort him. The table stared at them as they left.

They weren't surprised. Not anymore at least. Sonic made it clear to his friends that he had become Amy's friend and that he acknowledged her. But neither Sally nor Sonic told them the real story behind that of their friendship. Knuckles head turned to Sally.

"Something 'bout Sonic's different." Knuckles claimed and Sally's brown eyes glanced at him.

"I'll bet its age." Silver said, still rubbing his leg.

"Age has nothing to do with it," Sally said placidly. Remembering the way Sonic spoke to Amy back at her house made her smile. "It's something else."

(:xXx:)

Amy walked next to Sonic having a few girls stare as they passed. She was aware that many girls didn't like the idea of a flunk girl with one of the smartest guys in school, not to mention attractive, but she thought they were being a bit over the top. There was no need for mad dogging, she thought.

"So, why aren't you going to the winter dance?" Amy asked wanting to get a conversation going, to distract herself from the glaring vibes.

"Should I want to go?" He asked, but not in a mean way.

"I mean, Sally and the rest are going, so why not?" She questioned.

Sonic made a face. "School made events are kinda boring."

"But not when you're with a lot of friends," Amy said archly, raising a finger up.

Sonic's eyes shifted over to her and he gave her a pointed look. "Is that all you ever think about? Having loads and loads of friends?"

Amy's playful look was exchanged with a subdued stare forward. "Having tons of friends for you is nothing since you've always had them without trying, but I've had a hard time making friends. I've only ever had one real friend before, but she moved away in middle school."

He frowned ruefully for bringing back that strong topic to her. He understood her past experiences with having friends went down the drain and having them now meant a lot to her. He backed away from the subject. "Having so many friends isn't as good as you think it is."

Sonic and Amy reached their lockers a few meters apart from each other. Sonic opened his locker first. Amy didn't open hers. She stared at him addle headed.

"What makes you say that? The more the merrier, right?" She asked.

"It seems that way to you, but many would rather have four quarters than one hundred cents." He said grabbing out a book and closing his locker shut. Amy still hadn't opened her locker. Amy placed both hands on her hips.

"What is that supposed to mean?" She inclined, eyes narrowing.

Sonic chuckled seeing how she couldn't do the math and leaned on the lockers. "I've told you before, but choose your friends wisely. You'll find yourself happier with less."

Seeing Sonic crack a smile, at something funny that she didn't get, made her smile smugly with her head held high. "Tell me something I don't know."

Sonic grinned slyly. "I already did smart one,"

She squint and pucker her lips as if she were about to spit. He was calling her stupid! She stepped forward to swing her hand at his shoulder, but he blocked it with his arm laughing. Through that intimate playful moment behind Sonic a figure appeared and interrupted them.

"Flirting in the hallways, how cute."

Sonic and Amy turned. Mina stood before them and Amy could hear the gasp that escaped from her mouth. Sonic's smile disappeared and he stood up firmly. Mina walked closer to them and with a cheery smile she said, "It's been a while, Amy," she forced to make her eyes contact with Sonic and under her breath added, "Sonic,"

"Yea," Sonic replied brusquely. He turned to Amy muttering a 'let's go', but she held her lunch box anxiously. She'd forgotten to put it in her locker. Sonic's eyelids fell half-way.

"Hey, what did I say about leaving a girl hanging." Mina said coyly.

Sonic turned his head. "What do you want?"

Mina approached Sonic as Amy opened her locker hastily her eyes shifting back and forth from her locker to them. Behind Mina's hands she took out a small snow globe. Sonic stayed composed but Amy's eyes widened, stopping her movements.

Before Mina could speak, Sonic interjected. "I'm not going,"

"It's not for you. I want to give this to Amy." She said with a smile.

Amy nearly dropped her lunchbox as it clashed with the locker as she grabbed it before it fell. Mina and Sonic flinched back at her. Amy nervously fixed her stance placed her lunchbox inside and blinked twice. "For me?"

"Yup," Mina walked forward, but Sonic stepped in between them. His smoldering eyes piercing through her green ones. Mina drew back.

"She's not going with you." He stated in a matter a factly.

"I was talking to Amy." She replied with a disapproving glance.

"And now you're talking to me." He gruffly replied back. "She's not interested."

Mina's eyes narrowed dangerously for the first time in Amy's eyes. Sonic stood in front of Amy protectively, away from Mina's reach. Amy wasn't scared of Mina, but she wouldn't know how to act accordingly after everything that happened. Did Sonic know that? A cloud of shame floated through her. She had to control her emotions.

Around the halls students started gathering around, whispering and muttering to each other. Sonic noticed. Causing a scene wasn't what he wanted at all, but Mina continued.

"You can't go deciding for her." Her head poked over to Amy with a smile. "What do you say, Friend? Let's go?"

Sonic gritted his teeth blocking her view again, but Amy closed her locker and placed a hand on his shoulder. She stepped forward anxiously and swallowed hard. "I'm sorry. I don't wanna go with you."

Mina confident smile froze and Sonic's looked over at her with such relief, but changed it into an amuse smirk. Mina's fixed her expression and chuckled dryly showing a hurt expression. "But I thought we were friends."

"Mina, right now…" Amy trailed off shaking her head but not saying anymore. She couldn't find any words to express how she felt then.

"Don't involve yourself with her anymore. Same goes for Jet." Sonic declared stepping in for her.

Red patches of rage had broken out over Mina's face. She clenched the snow globe and threw it to Sonic but he caught it at ease.

"Go to hell," She said directly staring at Sonic. Mina turned her heel and walked away. The students' talking increased, but Sonic chuckled under his breath and faced Amy.

"That was scary," She gasped holding her hand on her chest. "Thanks Sonic."

Sonic gave a quirky smile and ruffled her quills. "No problem,"

Blood heated her cheeks with a crimson blush. She worried that it could become noticeable and pushed his hand away giggling nervously. Sonic stopped and stared down at the snow globe. Amy started at it too and quietly, her eyes shifted to Sonic. Their eyes met and he lifted the snow globe towards her as to show off, but Amy gladly grabbed it thinking Sonic was handing it to her.

Although, that wasn't Sonic's intentions everyone around them thought otherwise and many girls squealed. Sonic raised an eyebrow.

"I can't wait to go," Amy said dazed by it.

"Speaking of which they'll be going too huh." He stated mostly to himself. "I don't like that…"

"But we'll be with Sally," Amy told him.

"That's not the real problem here," Sonic sighed while he rubbed the back of his neck. "Just to make sure, I'm going with you."

AHHHH! SQUEAL EVERYONE!

Nah, but I really hope you liked that Sonamy moment there. Slowly but surely you are seeing some sort of change here and boy do I tell you it's only going to get better :)!~

As Mina and Jet become obstacles in Sonic and Amy's life, how will the two be able to deal with the troubles coming to. We'll see one the next update probably on my birthday :)

Until weeks pass, take care everyone!
