Chapter 51: Longing Feelings
Meanwhile Sally decided to return home, due to another rampant coughing while looking for the kids. She feared the sickness was getting worse and worse by the day, which made her wonder if she was going to make it.
A large yellow bear in a lab coat ran some tests and wrote down some results. The doctor then approached the queen to give her the results.
Sally read through the paper slowly...nearly making her tear up. "Are you sure about this, Doctor?" She asked.
"I'm sorry, your highness…" The bear whispered.
Sally nodded. "Very well...you are free to go, I'll send the payment to your office." She said.
The bear nodded. "very well, Queen Sally…" He whispered before leaving. After the doctor left, Monkey Khan decided to come in as he felt concerned for his friend and ex.
"Sally…?"
"Ken...what are you doing here?" Sally asked. The monkey smiled and kneeled next to Sally's bed.
"I came to check on you and your daughter after that night." Khan said.
"Well..thank you...but my daughter went missing the next morning…" Sally said.
Khan shook his head calmly. "I see…I'm sorry….Sally…" he whispered, embracing her in his arms.
"And that's not all…"Sally said. "But..I'll tell you the news later…I'm going to Amy's to see if she found the kids." She added as she got up from bed.
"Would you like me to come with you?" Ken asked.
"I'd appreciate that, Ken." Sally replied.
Sonic, Amy, Spines, and Alice left the Rose residence and took the last train home so both Spines and Alice could sleep after eating cookies. Sonic and Amy sat next to each other, watching over the kids.
"They look so adorable...even for teenagers.." Amy whispered.
"Yeah…" Sonic replied.
Amy started to yawn, but tried to keep awake. "By the way...how did you know the kids were at my parents' house?"
"Just a little help from my friends." Sonic chuckled. "How did you find out?"
"Mom called me." Amy replied. "I'm just glad these two are safe…" she said before yawning again.
Sonic chuckled slightly. "If you need to sleep then sleep. I'll wake you up when we're almost home." He said. Amy nodded before drifting into a slumber...resting her head on Sonic's shoulder which made him blush.
Sonic got a whiff of Amy's strawberry scented quills, which brought a smile on his face.
"Why did I run from this girl…" Sonic said to himself as he placed a loving arm around his son's mother. The blue hedgehog planted a single kiss on her forehead, before really thinking about the insight of the marriage.
After hours on the train, Sonic saw a sign that the train would be arriving to Mobotropolis shortly. He woke up Amy and the kids so they wouldn't miss the stop.
"Sonic...are we almost there?" Amy asked, half asleep.
"Yeah, we should be there in ten minutes." Sonic replied.
Amy nodded and smiled. "Where will you stay?" She asked.
"W-well...I was planning on staying with the Prowlers, buuuuut...I told Tails to go home after dropping me off at Mercia." He replied before yawning.
"Well...if you want you can stay at my apartment." Amy offered, knowing the hedgehog won't have a place to stay.
Sonic smiled and rubbed her quills. "Thanks...I'd like that.
The group went to Amy's after being dropped off at Mobotropolis train station. As usual, Spines would sleep on the floor while Alice got his comfy bed. Sonic sat on the couch in thought while went to the kitchen to prepare some hot chocolate.
"Sonic? Is everything okay?" Amy asked, sitting next to him. Sonic however didn't say a word which worried Amy. "Sonic..?" Amy placed the tray of hot chocolate on the table before placing a hand on Sonic's shoulder.
"Sonic...talk to me…" She whispered.
Suddenly the blue hedgehog pushed Amy on her back. Sonic climbed on top of the pink hedgehog, engulfing her in a deep kiss. Amy's eyes widened in shock, feeling the need to protest this.
"H-he's kissing me….he's kissing me once again.." Amy thought. Soon the pink hedgehog returned the kiss, wrapping her arms around his neck while Sonic deepened the kiss to have as little space as possible between them.
Soon Sally and Ken arrived at Amy's...however Sally froze when she heard noises coming from the apartment. Instead of knocking on the door, she decided to peek through the window with Ken behind her.
"Oh no…" She whispered, seeing Sonic and Amy kissing on the couch.
"I-Is that Sonic…?" Ken asked.
"Yes..yes it is.." Sally replied darkly.
Sonic pulled away from Amy's lips before kissing all over her face, making sure to get every single inch.
"S-Sonic, but what about Sally?" Amy asked, while getting kissed all over. Sonic pulled away from kissing her, looking into her eyes.
"Amy, Amy look at me...I don't love her anymore…" Sonic whispered.
"W-what?" Amy replied.
"That bastard…" Ken growled, wanting to attack Sonic.
"Shh.." Sally whispered, listening to the conversation.
"You don't?" Amy asked.
"No..and she's going to know first thing tomorrow…" Sonic said, feeling confident. "I-I want you...you've been on my mind for so long...even back then…" He whispered. "I...Ive always had feelings for you...I love you.."
"Oh Sonic...I could never stop loving you…" Amy whispered. "Never ever ever…"
Soon the two returned back to the kiss, before becoming one in an embrace.
"Sally…." Ken whispered, surprised of what was going on.
"Let's go Ken...I have some divorce papers to fill out…" Sally said.
