Ok, time for an apology, last week was one of my busiest weeks ever and I didn't have much time to work on this but here it goes.

Oh and ages, Sonic is 18 and Amy is 15, that means about 3 years have gone by so keep that in mind.

Chapter 2 - Slow Heartbeat

(…)

Sonic and Amy arrived at Sonic's house in a matter of moments.

"You sneak" Amy said as he set her back on her feet.

"What?" Sonic said with a slight chuckle.

"You took the long way" Amy said while moving closer.

"Is that a problem" Sonic said raising his arms to embrace Amy.

"No..." Amy breathed before the two locked lips.

Amy felt her the warmth of his body, the soft flesh of his lips against her own, and Sonic's ever beating heart.

"It is always so fast" Amy thought in her subconscious.

They separated as their lungs strained.

"Amy, we should probably get you dried off" Said Sonic as he noticed her soaked dress.

"I'm not that wet" Amy said in vain.

"We were watching the rain, not avoiding it Ames" Sonic said while ringing out one of his gloves for emphasis.

"Oh fine, but I have to do something so you go take a shower" Amy said expecting resistance.

"Very well" Sonic said simply.

"Whoa whoa whoa, You, Sonic The Hedgehog, just fine with getting wet all of a sudden?" Amy asked quizzically.

"Hey, I don't need to swim to shower, it's not like i'm completely afraid of water, I mean were were just out in the rain." Sonic said while backing towards the bathroom.

Amy chuckled for a bit, "Well, time to get to work."

Amy checked the clock, it was only half past eight.

She headed for the phone, "Cream should still be up" Amy thought aloud.

Amy dialed as fast as she could.

The phone rang three times before someone picked up the other end.

"Hello Mr. Sonic" Amy heard from Cream.

"Cream, it's me"

"Oh, I was wondering what Sonic would be calling about, so what is up?"

"Guess"
"Amy, you called me, just say it"

"Guess"

"Oh fine" Cream said before pausing to think.

"Well, you're calling from Sonic's house, you called me after dinner, and you want me to guess so..."

Amy hoped she would get it.

"Sonic did something romantic so now you're going to surprise him?"

"Cream" Amy giggled a little "You're half right"

"So what did he do?" Cream said seeming a little distracted.

"He proposed" Amy said and waited to hear Cream's response.

Thud.

"Cream?"

(…)

"Cream?" Amy repeated after hearing nothing.

"Cream?"

Then Amy heard a rustling at the other end of the line.

"Sorry Amy, I dropped the phone." Cream apologized.

"So what did you say, I think I misheard you"

Amy smiled, "You didn't, He proposed"

Amy waited for Cream's next words.

"OH-MY-GOSH-AMY-YOU'RE-GETTING-MARRIED!" Cream screamed into the phone.

"I KNOW!" Amy squealed back in delight as she lost the control she had been so busy trying to maintain.

The two volleyed words back and forth with increasing speed and pitch before Amy stopped them both dead.

"Cream, you need to see the ring!"

Cream gasped, "TELL ME ALL ABOUT IT"

"Well first he to- Hold on Cream I think he's out of the shower, I've gotta go" Amy said before hanging up the phone.

"Amy, I'm out of the shower" Sonic called from down the hall while grabbing a towel.

Amy took her opportunity and snuck into his bedroom.

She hid next to the door with her hammer raised.

Sonic rushed in and threw the towel into a small hamper.

"Dry already Sonic?" Amy said surprising him.

"A-Amy" Sonic said whirling around.

"What's with the hammer?" Sonic asked with genuine worry.

Amy hefted it then swung with all her might.

Sonic dodged the blow by springing backwards but was soon met with another problem.

Amy hadn't aimed at him and had instead hit the door hard enough to make the lock spring into place.

"Amy?" Sonic said preparing to bolt out the window.

Amy calmly tossed her hammer towards Sonic.

"Hold this for me Sonic" Amy said casually like nothing was up.

Sonic barely had time enough to catch the hammer and set it down before he saw Amy lunge at him.

Amy tackled him down onto the bed, the two bouncing for a bit after impact.

"Amy what are you" Sonic got out as he felt Amy pulling his arm.

"Shhh" Amy said as she put her head down on his chest.

Sonic was too afraid to move.

"You hear that?" Amy said while pulling his hand atop where she had just been.

"Do you feel it?" Amy asked as she moved closer to his face.

"Umm do you mean my heartbeat?" Sonic asked as Amy looked straight into his eyes.

"Yes, feel how fast it is?" Amy said her lips hanging over his.

Sonic nodded and gulped a little.

"This is how I feel around you"

Her lips brushed against his and they both embraced with passion.

Amy was in total control and she didn't hesitate to use that control.

A soft pass of her tongue on his lips caused them to open.

She held him down, will all her might, not willing to let him ever escape again.

Amy was soon annoyed as the need for air pulled them apart.

Both were laying there, panting as they stared into the other's eyes.

"Wow Amy" Sonic started while still panting.

"I don't know what that was, but I loved it" he finished as he went for another kiss.

Amy pulled back and smiled a bit seeing his face.

"That was called Amy Rose" she said before permitting the kiss.

The two laid there on the bed, kissing for as long as they could.

Soon the kisses turned to pants, then to cuddling, and eventually into sleep.

(…)

Amy woke late in the morning as the sun's rays already starting to rise high in the sky.

She stumbled as she came out of the bed before she turned and headed for the kitchen.

"What day is it?" Amy asked herself aloud.

"I think it must b" She started before she bashed her head into a wall.

"AH" Amy said as she fell backwards.

"You're at Sonic's, he doesn't have a door where you do" Amy heard her conscious pipe up from behind the pain.

Amy sat rubbing her head for a moment before she noticed something odd on her finger.

"Huh" she squeezed out as she realized the object was a ring.

The next moment Amy felt a hand on her shoulder.

"You ok Amy?" Sonic said as she sat there.

Amy looked up at him and a wave of memories came flashing back to her.

"Sonic..." Amy said with tears pulling at the corner of her eyes.

"Amy?" Sonic said slightly concerned.

"We're engaged" Amy sobbed as she stood up.

"Of course Ames, I love you" Sonic said as he pulled her into a warm hug.

Amy sobbed quietly as she felt his heart pulsing through his chest.

Amy's tears soon stopped as she pondered it's slow rate.

"Sonic, Are you ok?"

Sonic looked down into her eyes before flashing his trademark grin.

"Course I am, why do you ask?" Sonic smiled while pulling Amy into a kiss.

Amy enjoyed the embraced and did her best to give her all as well.

When the embrace finally ended Amy's head came to rest once again on Sonic's chest.

"Your heart is beating so slow, you never go slow"

"I go slow when I want to, and right now, I want to go as slow as possible" Sonic said with another smile pulling at his face.

"That way, I get to spend more time with you" Sonic finished his grin.

"SONIC!" Amy shouted in glee as she hugged him tighter than she had in a long time.

"Ghak" Sonic's words were cut off along with his windpipe.

Amy released her grip a moment later as Sonic began to breath again.

"I'm sorry Sonic" Amy said feeling like she had several years ago.

"Don't be sorry Amy" Sonic said as he rubbed his throat.

"I love you the way you are" He finished as he returned to kissing her.
