Thanks for the awesome reviews guys! I've lost my glasses so hopefully this chapter doesn't look like it was written by a three year old.

Dancing In Spagonia
The sun was just setting over the crystal blue ocean, reflecting the mixture of orange and blue onto the gorgeously simple white buildings of Spagonia. Music blared as people danced around in the festival, twirling around gracefully on the cobbled streets. Flags and streamers were hung high, filling the streets with colour and the whole population was out and about, enjoying the festivities.
Sonic and Amy made their way through the crowds of people. Amy stared at everything with wonder and excitement, grabbing hold of the hem of her long flowing red dress and swaying it in time to the beat of the music absentmindedly. Her quills curlier than normal as she had dressed elegantly for the occasion. Sonic trudged behind slightly, his hands sulkily in the pockets of his white suit as he glared ahead with irritation. The others had wandered off into the rest of the city to get food, but Amy had wanted to explore the area more and Sonic had been roped into showing her around.
Amy turned back to beam at him, only for her face to drop slightly at his miserable expression before she rolled her eyes and nudged him on the arm.
"Oh, stop being so grumpy and let loose – we're here to have fun." She giggled, her green eyes sparkling.
"I don't see what's so fun about me being forced into this thing." Sonic growled as he gestured down to his white tuxedo.
Amy covered her mouth to hide her smirk, her eyes shining even brighter with amusement. "Oh quit whining. You look cute."
Sonic felt his cheeks heat up and he looked down awkwardly, tugging on the end of his jacket. He didn't want to admit it out loud, but Amy looked pretty darn cute too. The dress hugged her curves perfectly, flaring out slightly in ruffles at the bottom as it hung just above her knees. He kept peeking at her out of the corner of his eyes as they made their way towards a large open area where many people were dancing around to the music being played by a small band stood to one side. Amy stopped, watching in fascination as couples danced gracefully together.
Smirking as the idea formed in his head, before the rational part of his brain could question his actions, Sonic grabbed Amy's hands in his and pulled her into the crowd of dancing people.
"What are doing?" Amy demanded as she resisted slightly, but Sonic just pulled her closer and winked.
"Dancing." He stated obviously, placing his hand around her lower waist while positioning her hand on top of his. "You told me to loosen up."
Amy continued to try and pull away, looking incredibly nervous.
"Sonic, no." She pleaded. "I'm too embarrassed."
"Why?" He questioned in confusion. He thought this was something she would love.
"I've never really danced with anyone before." She admitted in a whisper, biting her lip as her cheeks turned a light shade of pink that blended in slightly with her fur.
Sonic just smiled, pulling her closer again. "Don't worry about it," He reassure before adding, "Just let the music take control."
Before Amy could protest further, Sonic had taken full control, moving them around, spinning and twirling as Amy panicked, trying to follow his lead. She did as Sonic commanded, paying close attention to the music. Her muscles began to relax as the beat vibrated through her body and into her bones, inspiring her movement as she became more confident. Sonic noticed and smiled as they began dancing around as the music picked up its pace.
He quickly dipped her and they both laughed as he pulled her back up only to then pick her up by her waist and twirl them around. Placing her back on the ground with her back to him, Sonic pressed himself against her back, holding her hands as they began gracefully dancing around.
The rest of the world didn't seem to exist as they laughed and danced together in a timeless cocoon that only contained them in existence. Amy forgot all of her nervousness and just lost herself in the music and in the arms of the person she loved more than anything else in the world. She imagined, with his arms tightly wrapped around her, that he felt the same. She felt safe and protected from any form of harm in his embrace. Their hearts beat in sync next to each other as the song began to drift to a close.
Sonic dipped her one last time before slowly pulling her back up in time with the last long, melancholy note of the song, staring deeply into her eyes the entire time. They were both hypnotised by each other, the palms of their hands pressed against each other's as their heads tilted slightly, drifting closer and closer.
Cheers erupted from the people around them and Sonic and Amy shook their heads in confusion. They looked around, realising that they were now the only ones who had been dancing in the wide open space. Everyone else had drifted into the side lines to watch them, enthralled by the grace and emotion they shared as they danced.
Sonic and Amy took a step away from each other, their hands peeling apart with urgency despite the protest of their bodies. However, as people continued cheering, they couldn't resist sharing a small coy smile with each other before they quickly disappeared quietly into the crowd.
