Drabble Notes – Silver/Amy, based in an AU where Silver stayed around after Sonic 360. I'll admit that I'd stopped following the games by that point so I don't know what the current status of Silver is, and please don't comment to inform me.

"Is it still the same as what it was last time?" he asked. He hated when he sounded so depressive like this. After everything was over you'd expect he'd have been able to not worry about anything at least for a little while.

"Its always the same, I'll not change for anyone," Amy responded. He couldn't decide whether she sounded upset or defensive.

He didn't bother asking her the other question. The answer was obvious. If Sonic meant more to her then Mobius did then he meant more to her then everything. She'd never look at anyone the same way she looked at Sonic. So she'd never feel about him the same way he felt about her.

In honesty he didn't know why he liked her so much. In his time there weren't many people left, so the only girl he'd ever met before was Blaze. And Amy was so much different from Blaze. Not that he didn't care about Blaze as well. She was so mature and led him out of any trouble he could get himself into. But there was something about the cheerful, positive attitude of Amy that appealed to him. She hadn't been tainted by a destroyed world, and while most people in this time wasted their lives complaining about problems that didn't really exist Amy lived life to the fullest. She enjoyed every moment of it.

Except right now it seemed. She had her back to him but he could tell she was upset. Perhaps he'd made her think about the one flaw in her lovely existence that she kept denying to herself: that Sonic didn't like her. And she couldn't bring herself to accept that he probably never would.

But there were plenty of other people who would be more then willing to step in and fill the space Silver was willing to bet. But she'd accept no imitations. No one was as good as the real Sonic. Certainly not an inexperienced, naïve youth such as himself…
