"What?!" Sonic repeated.
"Uhhh…..We're dating," Shadow said.
"Holy crap…."Knuckles said in shock.
"What's wrong with everybody?" Amy said a little agitated.
"Nothing, it's just that….You and Shadow? I thought you like Sonic?" Sally explained.
"Well she doesn't anymore." Shadow said a little angry.
"Amy, nice picking out this hedgehog. You got taste." Rogue said not a bit surprised.
"Thanks"
Sonic shook his head," Amy, may I speak with you privately?"
"What for?" Shadow growled.
"None of your business. Amy?"
"I guess."
Sonic took Amy in Sally's room while everybody talked to Shadow about the relationship between him and Amy.
"What are you doing?"
"What do you mean?"
"Why are you dating Shadow?"
"Why not?"
"Are you trying to make me jealous or something?"
"Why? Is it working?" Amy teased.
"Are you using him? That's cold."
Amy looked at him angrily, "I would never do that to him! You said to back off, and so I did." She said sharply.
"I don't believe you."
"I'm not always going to run after you."
"What are you saying?"
"I gave up."
Sonic was taken by surprise. Amy shook her head and left. It kind of hurt him. Amy walked up to Shadow's side and smiled at him.
"What were you two talking about?"
"Nothing, just unimportant stuff."
"Oh, okay."
The party went on for hours, Sonic kept looking down every time Amy was at his side.
Sally noticed this and wondered what was going on? Sonic suddenly changed attitude. He forgot that he was supposed to do something that would change his life.
"Everybody, please listen I would like to say something."
Every kept quiet.
"Sally and I have been dating for almost 3 years. And now….."
Amy knew where this was going and prepared herself because she knew she was going to cry or get her feelings hurt.
"Sally," Sonic got down on one knee, "Will you marry me?"
Everybody gasped.
"Oh my…." Sally gasped.
"Will you?"
"Of course!" Sally threw herself against Sonic.
Amy watched. To her surprise, she felt nothing. No pain, no nothing.
"Wow."
"What," Shadow asked.
"Nothing."
Sally put the ring on. Everybody congratulated her. Sonic wanted to see Amy's reaction. Not because he was mean, but to prove that Amy was using Shadow. He wanted to clear things up because something was stinging him on the back of his mind. He didn't know why though.
"Congrats Sally! Sonic!" Amy said joyfully.
"Thanks Amy!" Sally replied.
"I can't wait to see you in you're wedding dress!"
"About that. Will you be my bridesmaid?"
"Only but of course!"
Both giggled in excitement and started jumping up and down Sonic was both shocked and disappointed. Amy does like Shadow…..Sonic thought. This time the stinging in the back of his mind was got worse. He felt angry, but he didn't show it. He forced a smile when Amy congratulated him.
"Wow, getting married…." Shadow said.
"Yup." Sonic sighed.
"I wonder if Amy and I will ever get married."
Sonic grunted and walked away.
