There was only one place Sonic would be. Him and I called it our 'chill spot.' When we were younger, we built this place in the forest. I guess it could be called it a tree house.

There was a 'room' on the bottom, two beside each other on top of that, and another on top. Only the bottom 'room' had walls and a door, though. I guess you could call the other three areas platforms.

It was very high and it was built on a hill, so the ground was further down on one side. The thought of falling down was scary. I never went on the highest platform. I wasn't afraid of heights, I was just afraid of falling.

Only Sonic and I knew about the place. We built it together, and went there together. It was a ten

or fifteen minute walk for me. It only took Sonic seconds, though. That was good, on some levels.

Sonic needed time to think and cool off and the time it took to get there was plenty of time. He wasn't very happy when he was hurt, especially when he was so good...

As I got to the top of the steep hill on the way to our area, I spotted the blue blur, running all around the area.

"Sonic!" I yelled.

He stopped dead in his tracks and looked at me. He punched the tree closest to him, causing it to

slightly crack.

As I walked closer to him, my eyes widened.

His eyes were bloodshot, all red. He has been... crying.

"Sonic," I breathed, throwing my arms around him.

"Ames," he whispered, slightly sobbing into my shoulder.

"It's okay, Sonic. It'll all be fine," I rubbed his back, not sure how else to try and comfort him.

"I gave her everything. She just..."

"I know," I pulled out of the embrace, and studied him. I've never seen him sadder. My heart ached just looking at him. I could see how sad he felt in his eyes. It hurt seeing him so upset. "I'm

sorry, Sonic," I pulled back into my arms. I wish I could take away the pain he felt, like he always

did for me. I went to give him a soft kiss on the cheek, but he turned his head last second. I gasped and pulled my lips off of his.

I looked at him, waiting for him to apologize or something. Instead, he stood in front of me, staring into my eyes.

As I stared back into his, I noticed something that wasn't there before. I didn't know what it was,

but it was drawing me towards him. Without a second though, I crashed my lips back onto his, closing my eyes. He immediately tightened his arms around me, keeping me close. I responded by wrapping my arms around his neck.

In a way that didn't make any sense at all to me, this felt right.

Our lips molded perfectly together as our tongues danced together.

Eventually we pulled apart, needing air.

"I... I'd say I'm sorry," I shrugged, breathless, "but I'm not."

Sonic chuckled, "neither am I."

I smiled as his eyes had a special sparkle to them.

"Ames?"

"Yes, Sonic?"

"You know how we always say to say it like it is?"

I nodded.

"Well... I think I love you."

"I..." I was speechless. I didn't know what to feel, or say.

He leaned in and gave me one last peck before letting me out of arms "Couldn't resist," he winked.

- - - Litsa's POV - - -

"I just feel so bad," I sighed. I never intended on hurting Sonic like this, ever. If Scourge didn't

have to follow me out that night, or if I didn't even leave.. We wouldn't be in this stupid situation.

"Litsa, stop feeling so bad. What's done is done, there's no sense in dwelling on the past." Scourge sighed, letting go of my hand. "Let's just watch this movie and not talk about Sonic? It's all about you and me now," he took me into his arms and kissed my softly.

"Alright," I smiled, biting my lip.

Half way through the movie, Scourge and I somehow ended up kissing.

I giggled, pulling away. He made me feel so amazing. He was so wonderful. I picked up the remote and turned the tv off. "Let's finish the movie later," I suggested, smiling.

"I like that idea," Scourge approved, gently kissing me again.

"Let's go somewhere," I said in between kisses.

"What'd you have in mind?"

"Take me somewhere," I jumped off his lap, and ran over to the door, putting my shoes on.

"Where do you want to go?" Scourge asked, facing me as he remained on the couch.

I shrugged, "anywhere. Let's just go have a good time!"

"Alright," Scourge smiled, getting up off the couch. He walked towards me and gave me another

kiss.

After a few short seconds, I broke the kiss, bending down. I picked up his shoes and handed them to him. "Hurry up," I whispered as I opened the front door. I grabbed his keys and ran out to his car.

I unlocked the car and hopped in the driver's seat.

"What do you think you're doing?" Scourge asked in an amused voice as he climbed in the passenger seat. "I thought I was taking you out."

I shrugged, "I wanna drive this thing. Where to?" I smiled.

He chuckled, "where ever you want to go."

"Where do you want to take me?"

"Where ever -"

"Name a place," I interrupted. This conversation wasn't going anywhere.

Scourge stayed silent as he pursed his lips.

I sighed and got out of the car. I walked over to the passenger side, and opened the door. "You

drive."

He got out of the car, and got back in the driver's seat.

"Now you can go somewhere and surprise me!" I giggled.

Scourge chuckled along with me, as he reached in the back seat, pulling out a large white bag.

"You'll need this," he said, giving me the bag.

"What's this?" I asked as I took the bag. If I didn't know better I'd say it was...

"A dress. You need something nice to wear," he grinned, showing his teeth.

"Where are we going?" I couldn't imagine going anywhere where a dress was necessary.

"You'll see when we get there. Go get your dress on, I'll be waiting," he smiled.

I nodded as I opened the door and headed back for the house.

When I got up to my room, I unzipped the dress cover, revealing a gorgeous black dress. I really

wasn't one to wear dresses, but this was something else.

I quickly changed into the dress, and looked in the mirror.

It only went down to just above my knees. It hung off my right shoulder. The sleeve went down halfway down my arm, almost to my elbow. The dress wasn't too tight or too loose. It was perfect. I twirled around, admiring the dress.

I sighed in amazement and quickly headed downstairs to thank Scourge.

"Oh my gosh," I gasped as Scourge pulled into the Parking lot of the most expensive, classiest

restaurant in Mobius. I had never been here, but I've heard the food is to die for. "You can't

possibly be here on purpose. Did you make a wrong turn?"

"No, I've been waiting to take you here. Now seems perfect, don't you think?"

I looked down at my outfit. Well, that explains the dress. "It's a good thing I let you drive," I

replied in a joking manner.

Scourge chuckled, and got out of the car. He walked around and opened my door for me.

I sighed as I got out of the car, "alright. Just one question. How can you afford this?"

Scourge suddenly became tense as he closed the door behind me. He let out a small, uneven chuckle. "How can't I? Nothing's too expensive for you."

"Alright..." I was a little worried at his sudden tenseness, but I thought nothing of it.

"Come on!" I pleaded, opening the front door. "How much was it?" I was dying to know how much the bill at the restaurant was.

"It wasn't much," Scourge said again with a chuckle.

"Litsa, I'm glad you're home!" my mom suddenly said, wrapping her around me. "Did you hear the news?"

"No, why, what happened?"

"Someone robbed the bank! There's a robber on the loose!" she sobbed lightly into my shoulder.

"Oh my gosh... Who would do such a thing?" I looked over at the tv. There were news reporters standing outside the bank, saying something. I couldn't make it out due to my mom's sobbing.

"I, uh, gotta go. I'll see you later," Scourge said.

I turned to say goodbye but he was already gone.

A/N: hihi!

So, with Christmas coming up, I probably won't be updating until boxing day, maybe.

I'll try to update again ASAP , but no promises as to when that may be.

Anyways.. Review? {:
