Chapter 17: Waterfall Romance
The blue hedgehog arrived at the Rose Residence and rang the doorbell. Sonic breathed in and out hoping that Amy's father wasn't home. Much to his delight, Amy answered the door.
"Hello Sonic!" She greeted. "Come in!"
"H-Hey Amy.." Sonic said, walking inside. "How are you?"
"I'm pretty good, and yourself?"
"I'm great but listen...I kinda left the tux jacket here..and I need it back." Sonic said.
"Oh! I still have it! Be right back." Amy replied. The pink hedgehog ran upstairs while Sonic took a look around the house, looking at pictures of Amy and her family.
Amy returned with the tuxedo jacket. "Here you go." She said, handing it to him.
"Thanks Ames." Sonic replied with a smile. "Hey so...how come you didn't come to school?" He asked.
"Well..the police came over asking me some questions about what happened with Jet." Amy replied. Sonic nodded in understandment.
"So you okay?" He asked, Amy replied with a nod and smile.
"I was also planning on going to the town pool...but I heard it's closed for the day." Amy says. Sonic had an idea, while he wasn't much of a swimmer he wanted to see Amy happy. He had a place where he could take her.
"Well...I wanna show you a place I know of. It has a lake for swimming." Sonic said. Amy's eyes lit up like a Christmas Tree.
"Sure, just let me get changed." Amy said. Sonic waited patiently for her return, he decided he might as well swim in his boxers.
Amy returned in a white with red polkas it sundress to cover up her swimsuit underneath. Sonic blushed and smiled.
"You look really cute, Amy." He said.
"Thank you, Sonic! So where is this lake?" Amy asked.
"Well...it's kinda far." Sonic said. "I don't have a car so I'll run there."
"Wait...huh?" Amy asked confused. Sonic picked her up bridal style and ran full speed out of town and to a beautiful secluded lake where a waterfall was. Amy made sure she was hanging on for dear life.
"Alright, we're here." Sonic announced.
Amy opened her eyes...and saw a beautiful waterfall surrounded by lush trees and flowers. Birds and butterflies flew everywhere in the sky which made the place more endearing.
"Oh Sonic…" Amy whispered speechless.
Sonic smiled. "What do you think?" He asked.
"It's so beautiful...I never seen anything like it.."
"When my dad was alive, he used to take us here...man those were the times.." Sonic said.
"What happened to your dad? If you don't mind me asking." Amy asked.
"He died in a car accident years ago...so I'd come up here alone sometimes to relax." Sonic said.
"I'm so sorry…" Amy whispered.
Sonic chuckled. "Hey it's cool, besides I know he's looking over me. So did you still want to swim?"
Amy nodded but before she took off her covering, she had a question. "Sonic, how did you run so fast?" She asked amazed.
"Well...I don't know, I've always been able to go fast." Sonic said. "But listen only my family and Tails know so don't tell a soul."
"I promise!" Amy replied. "So are you much of a swimmer?"
"Not really, to be honest. Never learned how." Sonic said as he removed his hoodie and jeans, leaving him only in his boxers. Amy blushed deeply, checking out how fit Sonic's body was...especially his abs. She never guessed that he was this fit.
Sonic caught Any staring and chuckled. "Something the matter?" He asked.
Amy snapped out of her vision and giggled embarrassed. "No no, everything is good! You just...you have a really..nice body.." She shyly admitted. Sonic smiled proudly, he did started working out more and it's really paid off.
"Well thanks, Ames." Sonic replied, making Amy blush at the cute nickname
Amy started to take off her dress, revealing a bright red bikini. This time Sonic was awestruck by what was under that dress. The blue hedgehog checked out her curves, practically drooling.
"She has a real banging body…" Sonic thought.
"Sonic, are you okay?" Amy asked.
Sonic shook his dirty thoughts and smiled. "Y-yeah, let's go swimming."
Amy nodded and the hedgehogs started to walk to the shallow end of the lake.
"By the way, Amy...you look fantastic…"
