College Life Chapter 17: Musical Medley, a sonic the hedgehog fanfic

(A/N): Musical Chapter!!!

"I can't believe she hid this from me!" Bolt exclaimed as Shawn sighed.

"You can't blame her." Shawn said as Bolt glared at him. "Did you not see the way you reacted?" Shawn said as Bolt huffed.

"Did she honestly expect me to react positively? 'Oh! You're dating Shitty Stephen! That's great!'" Bolt snorted as Shawn sighed. "I'm going for a walk." Bolt said as he left the apartment. Shawn sighed as he watched his friend go.

"You guys haven't said, 'I love you' yet!?" Lauren yelled as she looked at Emma.

"We went through this last week." She said annoyed as she looked at Lauren.

"Why?" Alana asked as Emma sighed.

"You guys know I don't have the best track record with guys. I just told you this a week ago!" Emma said as Lauren crossed her arms.

"Please, I know your every thought and it has a lot to do with Goldeye." Lauren said as Emma scowled at her.

"I'm just not sure." Emma said as Alana tsked.

"Emma, I can read emotions and it's pretty clear you two are in love." Alana said as Emma crossed her arms in a huff.

"I won't say I'm in love!" She exclaimed as music started to play. "Uh…" Emma looked around confused.

"It's the author. She's doing a musical chapter." Alana groaned as Emma looked at her confused.

"Um…ok?" She said confused as she sat between Alana and Lauren. (Italics Alana Bold Lauren and Alana Italics and Bold are all of them) Emma had a look of determination on her face as Alana and Lauren rolled their eyes.

No chance, no way, I won't say it, no, no

If there's a prize for rotten judgment,
I guess I've already won that
No man is worth the aggravation
That's ancient history,

Been there
Done that

Emma stood up as she marched away. Alana and Lauren quickly followed her dancing by her side. Yes, they were dancing.

Who'd ya think you're kidding?
He's the earth and heaven to ya
Try to keep it hidden, honey we can see right through ya
Girl ya can't conceal it
We know how you're feelin', who you're thinking of

Emma sighed in annoyance and pushed both girls away, but they easily caught up with her. Emma started her own dancing as the girls followed.

No chance, no way, I won't say it, no, no
You swoon, you sigh
Why deny it, uh oh
It's too...cliché
I won't say I'm in love
(Oooooh ooooh oooh)

I thought my heart had learned its lesson
It feels so good when ya start out
My head is screaming "get a grip, girl!"
"Unless you're dying to cry your heart out!" Ooooh oooh

Alana and Lauren rolled their eyes and grabbed Emma by her arms pushing her back into the chair. They stood in front of her as they continued to sing.

You keep on denying
Who you are and how you're feelin'
Baby, we're not lying, hone we saw ya Hit the ceiling
Face it like a grown up
When ya gonna own up that ya got, got, got it back?

Whoa
No chance, no way, I won't say it, no, no
Give up, give in
Check the grin, you're in love!
You're doing flips read our lips you're in love

You're way off base
I won't say it
Get off my case
I won't say I'm in love

Emma pushed them away from her and got up from the chair. She marched away as they followed her dancing around her as Emma fumed. She whipped around and glared at them.

No chance, no way, I won't say it, no, no
Give up, give in
Check the grin, you're in love!
The scene won't play
I won't say I'm in love
You're doing flips read our lips you're in love

You're way off base
I won't say it
Girl, don't be proud, it's ok, you're in love

No chance, no way, I won't say it, no, no
Give up, give in
Check the grin, you're in love!
The scene won't play
I won't say I'm in love

Emma pushed them both away storming away as Alana and Lauren sighed. She sat down on a nearby fountain and sighed as she looked up at the sky with a smile on her face.

At least out loud
I won't say I'm in....love

She sighed happily as she looked back down at the water. Garrett and Julian were walking down the campus path when Garrett spotted Cat. He smirked as he snuck up on her.

"What's up Kitty-Cat?" Garrett asked as Cat growled at him.

"Just leave Garrett." She said as Garrett smiled brightly.

"All right. You actually said my name this time." He said happily as Cat glared at him.

"You seriously can't be happy pursuing me like this." She said with her hand on her hip.

"What if I said I did?" He said challengingly with his eyebrow raised and smirk in place.

"Then I say you're on a road of heartbreak." She said as Garrett smirked widened.

"Maybe I just want you to break my heart." Garrett said as a guitar sounded from somewhere. Soon other instruments joined in the mix as Garrett and Cat looked around confused.

"Just sing." Julian muttered shaking his head as Garrett looked at him confused. He shrugged his shoulders as he bent his legs so he was eye-level with Cat.

So you're the girl
I heard the rumor
You got the boys wrapped around your finger
Such a sweet heartbreaker
If you're the game, I wanna be a player
Oh, you can do whatever you want
It's alright with me

Cat rolled her eyes and started to skate away. Garrett wrapped a vine around her skateboard making her fall off, however he was there to catch her. He smiled down at her as she scowled at him. She pushed herself out of his arms and started walking away as Garrett sang.

Why don't you break my heart
Make it hurt so bad
Come on give it your best
Nothing less, I insist,
come on, and just like that
Why don't you break my heart
It sounds good to me
Do it over again, again, again
You're just what I need

Cat crossed her arms as she strutted away with Garrett hot on her heels. Garrett jumped in front of her as he continued to sing. Cat sighed as she turned to opposite direction, but Garrett continued to follow.

Stare me down, intimidate me
Baby please you'll never break me
Bring it on, cause I can take it
You're so cool, the way you play it
Oh, you can do whatever you like
It's alright with me

Why don't you break my heart
Make it hurt so bad
Come on give it your best
Nothing less, I insist,
Come on, and just like that (just like that)
Why don't you break my heart (heart, yeah)
It sounds good to me
Do it over again, again, again
You're just what I need (yeah)

Garrett started do some random dance moves making Cat smile a bit. She started to walk with a bounce to her step as she continued to walk away from Garrett.

why don't you break my heart
make it hurt so bad
c'mon give it your best
nothing less, i insist
c'mon, and just like that (just like that)
why don't you break my heart (heart, yeah)
it sounds good to me
do it over again, again, again
your just what i need (yeah)

why don't ya break my
why don't ya break my
why don't ya break my HEARTT!! Yeah

Garrett stopped right in front of Cat as she crossed her arms and looked at him through her eyelashes.

"Cat!" Zeke called out as both she and Garrett whipped around to see him approaching. "I warned you once Burnet! Stay away from my girl." He growled as he punched Garrett across the face.

"Zeke!" Cat yelled out as he scoffed.

"Let's just go." Zeke said as he ripped her board out of the vines and grabbed her. Garrett rubbed his jaw as he smiled to himself.

"How can you seriously smile after that?" Julian asked as Garrett laughed.

"When he punched me she yelled at Zeke. That means she cares." He said in a matter-of-fact tone. Julian gaped at him as he watched his friend dust off his clothes and walk away.

"Why can't my friends have normal relationships?" He muttered to himself before following Garrett.

"Yes I found a diner!" Flash yelled as he, Wilmer, Suzy, Hailey, Lorgo, and Bianca entered a local diner. They all sat down at a booth as they looked at the menus.

"They don't have bacon and ranch fries!" Hailey exclaimed sadly as she slammed her head on the table.

"Uh darling, they're right there." Bianca said pointing to the name as Hailey looked at it.

"Oh…" She said as Bianca laughed a bit. As soon as their orders were taken Wilmer started scooting out of the booth.

"I'm going see what songs this ole' jukebox has." Wilmer said as Lorgo and Flash followed him.

"You really have a man there." A mongoose commented from a table next to Bianca's. Bianca scoffed as she rolled her eyes towards Wilmer.

"He was nothin' but a little Casanova before he met me." Bianca said when a sudden puff of smoke cover the whole diner. When it disappeared the diner was now a 1920s saloon with everybody dressed as such. Bianca was all dressed up with Hailey and Suzy right by her. Wilmer was hidden by the shadows as he leaned against the back wall with his hat tipped down.

You better take it from me, that boy is like a disease
You're running, you're trying, you're trying to hide
And you're wondering why you can't get free
He's like a curse, he's like a drug
You get addicted to his love
You wanna get out, but he's holding you down
'Cause you can't live without one more touch

Bianca sang as she, Hailey, and Suzy danced. Wilmer and the other two guys (who were visible) were watching them with amusement as they approached closer. The patrons all watched with amazement as they snapped with the music.

He's a good time, cowboy Casanova
Leaning up against the record machine
He looks like a cool drink of water
But he's candy-coated misery
He's the devil in disguise
A snake with gold eyes
And he only comes out at night
Gives you feelings that you don't want to fight
You better run for your life

I see that look on your face
You ain't hearing what I say
So I'll say it again
'Cause I've been where you've been
And I know how it ends
You can't get away
Don't even look in his eyes
He'll tell you nothing but lies
And you wanna believe
But you won't be deceived
If you listen to me
And take my advice

Wilmer pushed himself off the wall, but was still hidden in the shadows as he sat down on a chair. Lorgo and Flash dance by him as he nodded his head and tapped his foot to the music.

Run, run away
Don't let him mess with your mind
He'll tell you anything you want to hear
He'll break your heart
It's just a matter of time
But just remember

Hailey and Suzy paired up with Lorgo and Flash all trying to out dance the other as Bianca straddled Wilmer's hips. She pulled at his tie bringing his face into the light. She continued to pull him up until he was off the chair. They both started to dance with each other looking intensely at each other.

Oh, you better run for your life
Because he's all mine

Bianca ended the song with Wilmer seated on the chair again and her on top of him. She had his tie wrapped tightly around her hand as she looked at the other girls in the room with a possessive glare. Wilmer was just staring up at her as the others were posed around them. There was a puff of smoke and they were all in the booth again with Bianca sitting in Wilmer's lap. Flash was collapsed on the table gasping for air.

"I'm really out of shape." He said as the group laughed. Donovan was sitting at his desk in his apartment trying to concentrate on his homework. He looked up through his window to see Kim with Mason in her room. Kim had her shirt off with her bra on as Mason had his shirt off. Kim was pinned against the wall with her legs wrapped around Mason's waist as they made out. Donovan broke his pen in two as he looked at the scene unfold. Mason started to kiss down her neck when he pulled away to see her tattoo he licked at as Donovan smashed his fists on his desk leaving cracks in them.

"That was my rose." He growled as he stormed out of his apartment. He walked down to the cold streets as he scowled at the snow around him. He had a fierce look of determination on his face when Renegade and Conner saw him.

"What's up, man?" Conner asked as Donovan stood in front of them.

"I just something I didn't want to." Donovan muttered as Conner and Renegade walked back with him to his apartment.

"You watched them do it?" Conner asked as Renegade slapped the back of his head and glared at him.

"Sort of." Donovan said with a shrug of his shoulders. Donovan and Renegade both looked at him confused as he sighed. "I saw them about to do it. I guess." Donovan said as Renegade crossed his arms.

"Are you going to admit you like her now?" Renegade asked as Donovan exhaled sadly.

"I do. So much. I'm going to have her as mine." He said as he stared up at her building with determination. Suddenly music started to play as Renegade sighed and slapped his forehead.

"Oh c'mon." He said as Donovan looked at him confused.

"What?" Donovan asked as Renegade sighed again.

"Just sing." Conner said as he and Renegade leaned against his building. Donovan leaned against the tree separating his and Kim's building, but connecting their windows. He looked up at the light radiating from her room as he sighed.

I shouldn't love you but I want to
I just can't turn away
I shouldn't see you but I can't move
I can't look away

(Music Break)

I shouldn't love you but I want to
I just can't turn away
I shouldn't see you but I can't move
I can't look away

The snow fell around him as he looked down sadly. Conner and Renegade watched as he looked back up to the room to see Kim looking at her window with a robe over her. Donovan started climbing the tree as he continued to sing.

And I don't know how to be fine when I'm not
'Cause I don't know how to make a feeling stop

Just so you know
This feeling's taking control of me
And I can't help it
I won't sit around, I can't let him win now
Thought you should know
I've tried my best to let go of you
But I don't want to
I just gotta say it all
Before I go
Just so you know

Kim looked down confused before wiping off some of the condensation off her window. She saw Donovan making his way up the tree looking intently on her. Kim tightened her robe as she stepped out onto her balcony as he kneeled on the branch in front of her balcony.

"She's out there!" Conner said as Renegade whipped around to see Kim looking at Donovan with confusion and shock.

"What?!" Renegade whispered-yelled as they continued to watch the scene.

It's getting hard to be around you
There's so much I can't say
Do you want me to hide the feelings
And look the other way

And I don't know how to be fine when I'm not
'Cause I don't know how to make a feeling stop

Kim looked at him sympathetically as he looked at her with sad eyes. He jumped onto her balcony as she backed away to give him room. He grabbed her hands bringing her closer to him. She looked down sadly as he put his hands on her face to make her look at him.

This emptiness is killing me
And I'm wondering why I've waited so long
Looking back I realize
It was always there just never spoken
I'm waiting here...been waiting here

Kim's and Donovan's faces were close together as he sang fillers between the music break. Kim had her rested on his arm as he kept his hands on her face. He rested his forehead on hers as she looked up into his eyes.

Just so you know…

Thought you should know
I've tried my best to let go of you
But I don't want to
I just gotta say it all
Before I go
Just so you know

Just so you know…

Donovan finished the song as he looked down at Kim with parted lips. Kim looked up at him sadly as she held back the tears that threatened to fall.

"Kim?" They heard Mason call as Kim looked back down sadly. Donovan dropped his hold on her as he looked at her disappointedly. Donovan flipped off her balcony landing on the ground as Kim looked back at him. Donovan walked away towards Renegade and Conner as Kim shed a tear. Bolt was sadly walking through the university as he kept thinking about Stephan and Chrissy being together. He yelled out frustrated as he put his fists over his eyes. Suddenly he heard guitars and drums around him. He looked behind himself to see Flash, Henry, and Cherry.

"Shade and Shawn were a little busy." Cherry said as she sat behind her drum set. Bolt looked at Flash who shrugged his shoulders.

"I'm just happy I don't have to sing." Flash said as Bolt rolled his eyes. He started walking down the path slowly as the backup band followed him.

I'm love-sick somewhere tonight
I'm love-sick somewhere tonight
I don't need writing on the wall
I've felt it for so long
Am I even on your mind
Or are you now in...

Bolt looked at the cloudy sky as snowflakes fell on his face. Images of Chrissy and him started to appear as he sighed and continued to sing.

Someone else's eyes
Someone else's arms
Someone else's obvious moves
I'm a jealous guy
I hear people talk
And it isn't hard to believe
I think you cheated on me

I've been this love-sick before
I've felt just like this before
There was another just like you
I loved her for so long
But I had poison on my mind
And I drove her into...

The images of Chrissy and him started to turn into images of Chrissy and Stephan. Bolt growled as he walked through the snow and off the path. Flash sighed as he walked through the snow following Bolt as he sang.

Someone else's eyes
Someone else's arms
Someone else's obvious moves
I'm a jealous guy
I hear people talk
And it isn't hard to believe
I think she cheated on me

I said I've had this sense before
But I left an open door
For this to walk into my life
And maybe I suspect too much
But it's just hard for me to trust
When I'm all wound up inside

Flash, Henry, and Cherry went into a solo as Bolt looked up at the different images playing across the sky. His break-up with Chrissy, Stephan and Chrissy kissing, he and Chrissy arguing, and of course Chrissy yelling at him and storming off.

"You know, she technically didn't cheat on you." Flash said as Bolt rolled his eyes at his cousin.

"I know that! It's just apart of the song." Bolt said as Flash shrugged his shoulders and continued to play.

I just drive you off and into...
Someone else's eyes
Someone else's arms
Someone else's obvious moves

I'm a jealous guy
I hear people talk
And it isn't hard to believe
I was never easy to please
And I think you cheated on me

Bolt sat on a bench as Flash, Henry, and Cherry faded away. He sighed sadly as he looked back up at the cloudy, snow-ridden sky.

"It can't be that bad." Flash said as Jeff shook his head.

"Have you been there?" Jeff questioned as Flash looked down and shook his head. "Exactly." Jeff said as Flash rolled his eyes.

"I'm sorry I haven't been through the poor streets of New York during my four months here." Flash said as Jeff rolled his eyes. "Do you give money to them?" Flash asked as Jeff shook his head. Flash looked at him appalled as Jeff sighed.

"I don't give my money to them because most of them are alcoholics and drug addicts. They don't spend the money on food or clothes. They spend it on drugs and boozes." Jeff said as Flash leaned back in his chair.

"That's not all true." He said as Jeff leaned on the table.

"Fine, don't believe, but you can't say so until you've seen it." Jeff said as Flash rolled his eyes and got up.

"Fine. Let's go." Flash said as Jeff looked at him confused. They walked and walked and walked until they were in the darker parts of New York. The homeless walked between alleys with their arms wrapped around themselves trying to keep warm. Some sat against the buildings on the sidewalk huddled into balls. The lucky ones were around a burning trashcan. Jeff started climbing up a fire escape as Flash followed him. They stood on the roof of the building as they looked down at the sidewalks. People would pass by them as if they were invisible. Flash looked down sadly as Jeff sighed.

"This is it. The reality of the world." Jeff said as they both looked down at the ground. Music started to play as Jeff looked around confused, but Flash kept his gaze intent on the people below. Flash started to sing as Jeff stared at him confused.

Looked down from a broken sky
Traced out by the city lights
My world from a mile high
Best seat in the house tonight
Touched down on the cold black top
Hold on for the sudden stop
Breath in the familiar shock
Of confusion and chaos
All those people going somewhere,
Why have I never cared?

Flash jumped off the building landing on the sidewalk with a soft thud as he looked around at the people around him. Jeff landed next to him as Flash walked down the sidewalk with the wind whipping at his face.

Give me your eyes for just one second
Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missing
Give me your love for humanity
Give me your arms for the broken hearted
Ones that are far beyond my reach.
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten
Give me your eyes so I can see
yeah, yeah

Flash stopped at the end of the sidewalk as he looked a female rabbit next to him. She smiled half-heartedly at him before looking back in front of him. He turned his head the opposite direction to see a business man with his cell phone in his hand. He looked stressed and concerned as Flash looked back in front of him to continue singing.

Step out on a busy street
See a girl and our eyes meet
Does her best to smile at me
To hide what's underneath
There's a man just to her right
Black suit and a bright red tie
Too ashamed to tell his wife
He's out of work
He's buying time
All those people going somewhere
Why have I never cared?

Flash crossed the sidewalk as he entered a liquor store. Jeff shortly entered and stood by Flash as he stood in the back of the store. He saw a shabby looking wolf with two children by him. They all had old and worn-out clothing on as the wolf looked through the bottles of whisky.

I've Been there a million times
A couple of million eyes
Just moving past me by
I swear I never thought that I was wrong
Well I want a second glance
So give me a second chance
To see the way you see the people all along

The song ended as Flash walked towards the aisle with the homeless family. The girl was a small periwinkle fox with long unwashed hair. She had amazing silver and gold eyes and bangs that were pressed down because of the grease in her hair and her hat. She looked around the age of ten or eleven. The boy looked around the same age. He was snowy white wolf, but his fur was dirty. He has ice blue eyes and he was taller than the girl. He had a small scar on his cheek and a fang on the right corner of his mouth. The children were looking up sadly at their – what Flash assumed – father.

"Dad, can we please get some food?" The girl asked as he growled and continued looking at the wall of alcohol.

"I got this money and I'm spending it on what I want. Maybe you should start earning your own." The wolf grumbled out as the girl looked down sadly.

"Dad, please." The boy asked next as the wolf slapped the boy across the face.

"Hey!" Flash yelled as Jeff looked at him confused and shocked. "You can't do that!" Flash said as he pulled the boy and girl behind him.

"Says you?! They're my children!" The wolf growled as Flash glared at him.

"Not anymore." Flash said as the wolf, kids, and Jeff looked at him confused.

"What?" The wolf hissed as Flash picked up the girl.

"I'm adopting them!" Flash yelled as Jeff gasped in shock.
