You just want the chapter right? Well, you're in luck, because I feel this chapter is great!
Chapter 7: Avoid Me
Love is mysterious and can work in many ways
Amy walked into the school parking lot with Cream by her side. She decided to take a break from Rouge's car pool. Amy had just finished every single detail about what happened last night. Cream was raving for more, wanting more detail, which made Amy laugh.
"How was your date?"
"Okay. Charmy's just a bit too hyper for me." Cream said with disappointment.
"I'm sorry Cr-
"Look Amy, isn't that Sonic?"
Amy turned her head to look where Cream was pointing. In a blue sports car, Sonic piled out with Knuckles and Shadow. The three of them began to walk towards the school building.
"You're right. HEY SONIC!" Amy called. She waved at him, wondering what he was going to do when he found her.
She smiled at the thought. Her smile soon faded when Sonic didn't even look up. His eyes were glued to in front of him. The three males walked right past Amy and Cream, without a word. Amy stared at the back of Sonic's head, pondering why he didn't wave back or even acknowledge her.
"He didn't even say hi." Amy said with disappointment.
"I'm sure he didn't hear you Amy." Cream offered.
"Yeah, you're probably right." Amy said distantly.
--
"Who would eat this?" Amy gasped in amazement.
The cafeteria was supposed to be serving meatloaf, but instead it look like meat pudding. Amy grabbed her fork and moved the pudding around, trying to get rid of the chunks. She almost barfed at the site of it. She grabbed her lunch and finally threw it away.
"Thank goodness you got rid of that or else O think I might blow chunks on that chunk." Rouge said in relief.
Amy giggled, while the other girls threw out their lunches too.
"I swear, no one be alarmed her, but I think I saw it move." Mina said with a laugh. The girls joined in with her laughter.
"Now what are we going to eat?" Cream asked the girls.
"We can get bars at the school store." Cosmo suggested.
All of the girls nodded in agreement. They stood up and headed for the door, except for Amy. She had spotted Sonic, walking through the cafeteria doors with two buddies of his. Amy felt her heart stop. Every second he walked closer, the more her heart beat slower. Amy watched as Sonic shook his quills out, making him look even sexier than usual. He walked with confidence, but had an edge to his walk. Amy couldn't stop thinking about him since last night. Her first kiss was with Sonic the hedgehog. And she's kiss him again if she could.
Amy gained all the confidence she had, and decided to go over and talk to him. After all, he was infatuated with her, just like she was.
"I'll meet up with you guys." Amy said before walking up to Sonic.
"Hey." She said sweetly.
"Oh hey." Sonic said, losing his smile.
"Thanks for last night." Amy said, hoping he would say he had a great time.
"Yeah, no prob. Listen, Amy, I'm gonna go eat lunch." Sonic said distantly, walking right past Amy.
Confusion hit Amy hard and fast. What the hec? Why was Sonic so so…unlike him? He was totally distant. And it was like he wanted to stop talking to Amy. What happened to Mr. Sweet Sonic? Or Mr. Flirtatious? Instead, Mr. Distant replaced him.
Amy's eyes widened in confusion, as her cheeks started to turn red. She looked around and saw everyone's eyes on her, but Sonic's of course. Sonic had just humiliated her and he didn't give a crap one bit. Everyone probably thought she was some pathetic girl trying to get a date with Sonic.
'Fine by me!' Amy tells herself angrily.
She walked out of the cafeteria with her head held high, and her eyes sparkling. She didn't dare look back at everyone's curious faces. As soon as the doors shut behind her, she lost her cool. She ran all the way to the school store, hoping to hide in a hole.
--
Sonic heard someone call his name. He slightly looked up and found Amy smiling and waving at him. She looked beautiful today, as usual. She was wearing a long sleeved, button up white shirt with a black skirt. Her ankle boots were black and her hair was held by a black headband. She looked smart in a sexy way. Sonic scolded himself for thinking that. Instead of acknowledging her, he walked right past her, ignoring her confused stare.
As soon as they were in the building, Shadow shoved him slightly into the lockers.
"What the hell man?" Sonic said angrily.
"Dude, what the hell was that? You just ignored Amy."
"So?"
"I thought you liked her." Shadow answered with frustration.
"I do, but liking someone gets old pretty soon."
"I thought Amy was going to be different. Don't screw with her man, she's a nice girl."
"I'm not messing with her. She's just not for me." Sonic lied.
The truth was he had spent the entire night thinking about Amy. He even ran by her house a couple of times. He couldn't stop thinking about her and that was what worried him. He shouldn't feel this way about Amy. She was just a normal hedgehog girl. Another toy. He would get bored of her soon. But how come his heart was sending a whole different message?
Sonic was confused by his emotions, which made me feel angry. He didn't want to be attached to some girl. He had a reputation! He needed things to go back to the way they were. Without Amy. Just him and other girl toys.
Sonic felt his feelings were too strong for Amy. He needed to get rid of her. And for now, he was going to avoid her.
--
"Hey." A sweet voice rang out as Sonic made his way through the lunch room.
"Oh hey." Sonic said distantly. He didn't want her thinking he liked her. His two buddies left him to join their lunch table. Sonic shifted awkwardly in place.
"So thanks for last night."
"Yeah, no prob." Sonic said awkwardly. He tried not to look at her, but he couldn't help himself.
She looked extremely cute today. He just wanted to grab her and kiss her till the end of time. He dared not look in her hurt eyes. It would only make the pain worse. Speaking of the pain, it was creeping up inside his heart. He needed to get out of there fast, to benefit both him and Amy.
"Listen Amy, I'm gonna go eat lunch." I said before blowing past her. I sat down at my usual table, feeling one hundred percent awful.
There was a sinking feeling in my stomach. I gazed up at Amy's frozen body. Her face showed trails of confusion and hurt. Sonic cowered at this. He watched her walk out of the room, trying to recollect herself. He wanted to run out of that room and follow her, but he couldn't. He shouldn't.
--
Sonic sighed, not wanting to show up to Ms. Hertz's class, but he had to or else he would get suspended. This was the class where he and Amy were partners. Usually, he'd look forward to that, but not today. He sighed, zipping up his pants, and then flushing the toilet. He walked over to the mirror and looked at himself.
He had bags under his eyes. His eyes showed no emotion. His smile showed no happiness. Everything about him was fake. Amy had made him weak.
'C'mon Sonic, Get a hold of yourself.' Sonic said before splashing cold water on his face. He wondered if Amy was going through this, as he ran out the door.
--
Amy took her seat and sighed. Tears threatened to form, but Amy wouldn't let herself cry. She would just confront Sonic and ask him what the deal was. If he apologizes, everything will be A-okay. But if he doesn't, Amy would just have to move and be done with him.
'I don't want to move on.' Amy told herself silently.
Just before the bell rang, a blue blur took his seat right next to her. He didn't even look her in the eye, or even in the corner of his eye. He sat straight and listened to Ms. Hertz. Amy complained inside her head, knowing she was going to be the one to start the conversation. She tore out a piece of notebook paper, and began writing on it. She then passed it over to Sonic.
Avoiding me?
Sonic sighed as he took his pen and began to write back to Amy. He was going to make something up.
No, why?
Because I waved to you outside and you didn't look up. I even tried to talk to you at lunch, and you made up some lame excuse.
It wasn't an excuse Amy. I just wanted to eat.
Amy? Since when do you call me that?
That's your name isn't it? Amy?
Whatever. I just want to know the truth.
That is the truth. I've been busy lately.
You know, if you don't want to hang out, then we don't have to. All you have to do is say it
Sonic crumpled up the piece of paper and threw it out. He didn't give Amy another word of explanation. He ignored her angry glares. As soon as the bell rang, he ran out of the door, as quickly as possible. Amy sighed, hoping not to cry.
--
Sonic replayed what Amy wrote to him in class. He said her lines over and over again. It was pathetic. He needed her. He knew it. Why couldn't he let go of this whole rep thing and most importantly why couldn't Sonic stop liking Amy? Sonic paced back and forth, outside, waiting for football practice to begin. As he paced, a ton of thoughts rushed through his head. His emotions were speaking.
You like Amy.
You don't know why or how, but all you know is that you need her.
Run to her Sonic. Tell her how she makes you feel.
Do it before it's too late.
Win her back like a hero who slayed a monster and won the fair maiden.
Sonic, you are confused, but you know you want her. Do something!
Before it's too late.
Sonic came to a realization? Could it be love? He shook his head. He didn't know what love was and he certainly did not love Amy. But he really liked her. He needed her. And that's what he had to do. He wants to be with Amy, and figure out his feelings along the way. That way they can both be happy.
"I'll make it up to you Ames, I promise."
--
"I knew this would happen. Sweetie, I'm not going to say I told you so." Mina said softly.
"Be quiet. You'll make her cry." Tikal said, while squeezing Amy's hand.
They were walking towards Amy's house, trying to comfort her.
"There will be other guys Amy. This one only took you to Homecoming. That's all." Cosmo said trying to sooth Amy.
"Hun, you can get any guy you want." Rouge encourage.
"You guys are right. I don't even know why I'm hung over Sonic." Amy said with a sad smile.
"What you need is ice cream and an annoying chick flick." Mina said as Tikal squealed.
"Okay. I'll meet up with you guys at Cream's house." Amy said as she continued to walk past Cream's house.
"K Hun." Rouge said.
Amy continued to walk with her head held high, and told herself not to cry. A tear formed in the right corner of her left eye. It fell slowly, hitting her cheek, and leaving a trail of moisture of her cheek. The tear then fell to the ground and became a small puddle. Amy wiped the moisture of her cheek before walking into her house.
She was glad her mother was or work or else she would ask so any questions. Amy pulled out a piece of paper and wrote her mom a quick note.
Mom, At Cream's house. Sleeping over. See you tomorrow.
Amy packed her stuff and headed out the door, for Cream's house. She knew one thing she was going to have to do.
"I'm going to forget about Sonic and move on. I'm nobody's toy."
