Chapter 30: Mothers

"And everyday I go to work at the diner to provide for my son..I would look for opportunities for him so he could have a good future...when I found out about Chaos High, I was thrilled." Amy explained as she look at her son with his new sister on the couch.

Sonic smiled softly, looking at the two. "He seems like he likes it.."

The blue hedgehog looked back at Amy. For years, she took care of her son and did her best while he turned out to be a pretty nice kid. Sonic wished he knew he had a son earlier...but was grateful for Amy.

He placed his hands on her shoulders which surprised her a little. He looked into her eyes and said a few words…

"Thank you….Amy…" Sonic whispered.

The two hedgehogs exchanged smiles before Sonic walked over to the couch to pick up Alice bridal style. He walked to the front door to leave and gave Amy a nod.

"I'll see ya sometime…" He said.

Amy smirked and crossed her arms as he left. It was typical of Sonic to not stay long, although she knew he needed to get back to the castle.

The pink hedgehog sat next to the couch with her sleeping son. Amy made a mental note on how he drools in his sleep.

"Same old, Spines.." She thought with a giggle. Amy started to tickle her son's ears while he slept, making them twitch. Before going to her bed, Amy made sure to give her son a kiss on the forehead before the night would end.

Meanwhile Sonic returned home and placed his daughter in her bed. Before going to his room, he kissed her cheek and headed to his and Sally's room where his chipmunk wife was waiting for him with her arms crossed.

"H-Hey Sal.." Sonic stuttered.

"Sonic Hedgehog, where were you?" Sally asked impatiently.

"I was...spending time with Alice." Sonic said.

"Oh really?" she asked. "And what did you do?"

""You know just...dad and daughter stuff like….shopping." Sonic lied. "But anyways, how about you?" he asked as he laid down next to Sally.

"Ken was fine..he has a really polite daughter." Sally replied. "And he wants to go through with the marriage between Alice."

Sonic's face turned serious hearing about the marriage. "You sure you wanna do this?" he asked.

"Sonic..we talked about this...and I can't have another heir because we don't know what kind of illness I have." Sally explained. "It'll be bad for the baby and Ken will take good care of Alice."

"So when you plan on telling her?" Sonic asked.

"Soon, Sonic." she replied.

"Want me to be with you while you tell her?" Sonic asked.

"If you would." Sally answered.

Sonic nodded before relaxing in bed, ready to sleep. He did not hug or kiss his wife, but said goodnight before turning off his lamp. Sally sighed and rested next to him, Sonic seemed...distant towards her in the romantic apartment and she never knew why. It worried her deeply but decided to went to sleep.

Sonic dreamt about kissing his wife on a soft bed while the night sky was above them. The blue hedgehog would embrace her while kissing her deeply...to take it further..before removing her clothes.

But instead of Sally..he dreamt of Amy…
