My only excuse this time is laziness mixed with some writers block :P

Now, you might be a little disappointed with this chapter...but then again...I actually loved how it turned out and I think it will make up for it...why?...READ TO FIND OUT!

Sonic could feel his heart hammering in his chest as his ears twitched to the upbeat sound of pop music. His hands began to sweat and his breathing became uneasy as he approached the gymnasium. Why did he even agree to this in the first place? This was completely out of his element. When he felt a small hand on his shoulder though, it reminded him of the very reason he was here.

"You okay?" asked Amy in a concerned tone.

He turned to her and put on the best fake smile he could possibly make.

"I'm fine"

He mentally slapped himself for his voice cracking on the second word. Amy frowned slightly as her eyes narrowed, looking quizzically at him, but she seemed to have brushed it off. Instead, she patted him lightly on the back.

"It'll be fun" she smiled as she opened the doors to the gym.

Sonic took a final gulp and entered the blaring and flashing room with Amy by his side. He looked down at Amy, who was stunned.

"What's wrong?" leaned in Sonic so that she could hear him.

"Look at them!" exclaimed Amy as she clutched onto Sonic's arm and pointing a few feet away from them.

Sonic followed to where her finger pointed and his eyes widened in shock. There, a group of people were dancing in a very 'inappropriate' way. They looked like such nice kids at school… he thought to himself. Sonic could not keep his eyes on them for another second. He felt embarrassed. But when his eyes pulled away, he was directed to another group of people who were basically having you-know-what on the floor.

"Is that a condom?" shrieked Amy as she moved into Sonic.

Without even thinking, Sonic pulled Amy into his arms and walked back to where they entered from. Amy was laughing while Sonic was just relieved they exited that horrible place.

"What kind of school dance is this?" giggled Amy. Sonic shrugged his shoulders.

"You wanted to come here" stated Sonic.

"Yeah, but I didn't think it would be like this!"

In a way, Sonic was really disappointed that his first high school dance had to be like this. He really thought it was going to be fun.

"We can go back in there-"started Sonic as he looked over his shoulder.

"No!" exclaimed Amy.

Sonic laughed and looked down at her. He then realized that he had not yet released her. The only thing Amy did was smile sweetly at him. Sonic felt as if his knees would give out.

Finally though, Amy stepped away from him, but hooked her arm through his. "I was actually looking forward to this" sighed Amy as they walked farther and farther away from the dance.

"So did I" agreed Sonic.

"I'm sorry if I gave you high hopes, too. If I would've known it would be like this…" trailed off Amy was a sadness shadowed her eyes.

Sonic immediately shook his head. "Hey," Sonic said as he lightly nudged her. "It's not your fault. You didn't know, nor could you have known in the first place" he told her, trying to cheer her up. And it worked.

Her eyes twinkled brightly again and her entire face lit up. Seeing Amy sad made Sonic sad. He always wanted to see her happy and would do whatever it took to make her feel like that again.

They stepped outside, the sky tinted with blue, orange, and purple hues. The sun had already settled in the horizon so a few stars were beginning to pop up.

"Well, I guess we should just go home now" murmured Amy.

"Go home? Why would we do that?" asked Sonic. This got Amy's attention.

"What are we going to do, then?" asked a curious hedgehog.

"Take you to my most favorite place" stated Sonic. He had an idea planned out in his head that was going to be kept until he knew Amy a little more, but he wanted to make it happen sooner than he expected. Plus, he'd never get a chance like this again.

Amy squared her shoulders a little and tried to hide her excitement, but her smile gave it all away. "Is it far away? Can we walk there?"

"We could walk there, but I have a better idea" said Sonic.

Amy laughed. "Okay…?"

Sonic shoved a hand in his pocket and rubbed his muzzle with his other hand, trying to wipe the smile that was tugging on the corners of his cheeks off of his face. This was amusing to him.

"Do you drive? Are we going by car?" asked Amy, trying to guess how they were going to get there.

"No, I don't drive. Try again". Sonic bit his bottom lip, trying to hide the laughter he had building up inside.

Amy frowned but laughed regardless. "I'm confused. We flying there or something?" joked Amy.

Sonic laughed lightly at this. "Unfortunately, we're not flying there. Sorry to disappoint"

"Darn" mocked Amy.

"One more guess. I'm surprised you haven't mentioned it yet" said Sonic while rocking back and forth on his heels.

Amy folded her arms across her chest. "I honestly have no idea, Sonic" sighed Amy. "I mean, how on earth are we possibly going to get there? Are we going to run there or something?"

Sonic froze while raising an eyebrow. His smile grew as he looked at Amy. She blinked a couple of times before realizing that she guessed right.

"Running? Are you serious?" scoffed Amy. She looked down at her feet. "I can't run in these!"

"Who says you're the one running?" said Sonic slyly.

Amy shook her head and chuckled. "Aren't we mysterious?"

She nearly yelped when Sonic scooped her off her feet and cradled her in his arms like a small child. He lifted her up with such ease, as if she were as light as a feather.

"Sonic, I really don't think running is that best way to get there. You'll be so tired" said Amy, looking up at Sonic with worry.

Sonic just rolled his eyes and smiled. "Hold on tight" he advised.

But before Amy could even react, she felt Sonic take off like a bullet. Her eyes widened in shock at her surroundings. Everything was rushing past them at an incredible speed. She could barely make anything out with everything being so blurry. All she could see were dark blobs here and there. Her eyes flickered down at his feet and she nearly chocked at how fast they were moving. The wind wiped in her face, her eyes watering from the gust. Is this really happening? she wondered to herself.

And before she knew it, she was in an open meadow in the middle of the forest, a lone tree in the middle. Sonic showed no symptoms of effort. His breathing was perfectly normal along with his heart rate just fine. Amy, on the other hand, was panting and her limbs felt weak. Sonic was smirking the entire time, but when he looked down at the stark white girl in his arms, his eyes held a glint of panic.

Sonic slowly put Amy down back onto her own two feet, but had to hold her up with his arm securely wrapped around her waist when she nearly collapsed.

After it nearly being a minute of Amy trying to catch her breath, she finally spoke. "That was incredible" she said in complete awe.

Sonic shrugged his shoulders and looked down at his feet. "You almost fainted, though"

"I don't care! That was so cool!" exclaimed Amy as she grabbed Sonic's face in between her hands. He looked into her eyes and indeed saw the excitement in her eyes. Sonic smiled and gently removed her hands but still held them in his own.

"Only my mom, Scourge, and Tails know about this, so please don't tell anyone" told Sonic with a bit of seriousness.

"Don't worry. Your totally-super-cool-super power is safe with me" winked Amy.

Sonic chuckled. "I wouldn't call it a super power. Just a gift"

"An awesome gift! You know how insignificant I feel right now? I wish I could do something cool" said Amy as she looked down at their hands.

"You are not insignificant, Amy" said Sonic sternly. Amy jumped a little at how harsh it had come out, but she knew he meant well. Though she couldn't help but blush at his comment.

Amy slowly let go of his hands and turned around to absorb more detail of her surroundings. Sonic had taken her to a spacious meadow, a few flower beds here and there. The tree that was directly in the middle had a swing on it, along with a small tree house on the top.

"I use to come here when I was little. It was kind of my escape from everyone. Whenever I'd be teased or made fun of, I always ended up here" explained Sonic.

Amy couldn't help but feel a little sad for him. Sonic was such a great guy and he really didn't deserve to be so judged.

"The tree house and the swing over there were built by my uncle a long time ago. Somehow he found me here one day and I had no choice but to tell him why I'd come here. He then got this idea to make it this area a little more fun. And so, he built this for me and I'd come here to read, play on the swing, and just clear my mind of things"

"What a good guy he must be" thought Amy aloud.

"Yeah. He is a pretty good guy" agreed Sonic.

Amy looked back and forth between the tree and Sonic. "Can we…?"

Sonic laughed. "Go ahead"

Amy decided to take off her heels before dashing towards the swing. She was halfway there when she felt a gust of wind whoosh right past her. She looked ahead and saw that Sonic was already there, leaning against the tree while tapping his foot impatiently.

Amy giggled and when she got there, he smirked at her playfully. "What took you so long?"

"Sorry everyone can't be an amazing runner like you, Sonic" she said and stuck her tongue out at him.

For some reason, the tree house looked a lot bigger from a distance, but it was actually quite small.

"Yeah, there's no way we'll be able to fit in that" said Amy while looking up there.

Sonic agreed with a shake of his head.

"Want to just sit here for a bit?" said Sonic as he pointed to a spot.

"Alright" said Amy as she folded her dress at the back and sat down. She leaned her head back against the tree and took in a deep breath. The aroma of the wilderness was relaxing.

For a couple hours, the two hedgehogs talked. They talked about everything in their lives, what their dreams were, and what they expected to happen in the future. The deep conversation exposed their true selves to one another and they felt more tuned to each other than ever before.

Amy was now swinging lightly on the swing, with Sonic watching over her almost protectively. The moon was up in the sky and the moonlight shone in her eyes, a stunning jade color reflecting in Sonic's eyes.

"You're certainly not an average girl, Amy" murmured Sonic. He felt so comfortable around her, that he wasn't afraid to admit anything anymore.

"I think I'm pretty average…" disagreed Amy.

Sonic shook his head. "Your personality captivates me, Amy. You say I have a super power. Well, so do you. You have no idea how you make me feel" said Sonic as he felt himself taking a step closer to her.

Amy's stomach fluttered while her heart skipped a beat. "Whoa. Where'd that come from?" smiled Amy with her cheeks turning a light shade of pink.

"I'm tired of keeping it all in" said Sonic. His eyes had Amy in a complete trance. They were so passionate and held so much desire.

Amy's breath hitched when Sonic griped the ropes of the swings and leaned down so that his face was leveled with hers. She could feel his warm breath caress her face and she thought that just at that moment she was going to pass out for real this time.

"Do you want to kiss me, Sonic?" whispered Amy, struggling to keep her breathing even.

Sonic nodded gently as his eyes flickered between her lips and her eyes.

And then, very slowly, they both leaned in to one another. If they could have a moment for their entire lives', this would be it. Flashbacks of their first meeting played in each other's head. Who would have thought that it would ever come to something so beautiful like this?

Their lips brushed for a moment, testing to see if they were prepared. They both felt a tingling sensation burn in their chest, the desire building up. Finally, Sonic leaned in and very lightly, pressed his lips upon hers. The kiss started off so sweetly, both just playfully nipping at one another's lip. But when the desire could not be contained any longer, the kiss turned into something very passionate and intimate. Sonic's hand had made its way to the back of her head and he tilted her head back for entry of her mouth. When she allowed this, their tongues clashed in an erotic dance that left the two hedgehogs breathless. When neither of them could take it any longer, they pulled back and leaned onto each other's forehead. They stayed liked that for a long time, both gasping for air. It had just felt as if fireworks had just gone off inside of them.

Their insides felt weak and their chest's ached for more. They both knew now that they needed each other. They had just shared something so special together. It would never be the same with anyone else.

Amy's eyes fluttered open and she looked up at Sonic. He smiled down at her and planted a gentle and long kiss on her forehead. His arms wrapped around her frame and he gently picked her up, supporting all of her weight.

"Was this better than the dance?" asked Sonic as he held in his arms. He cradled the back of her head against his shoulder while his other hand ran up and down her back lightly, making the girl shiver in his arms.

"Way better" sighed Amy contently. She nuzzled into his shirt and breathed in his scent.

All of the sudden, she was brought back to reality when she thought about the time. She pulled back abruptly.

"What time is it?" asked Amy anxiously.

Sonic's eyes widened a little as he glanced down at his wrist. "The dance just ended" he said. "Ready to go?"

Amy honestly didn't want to leave this place. It was now considered their special spot where they shared their first kiss. But all good things had to come to an end and Amy nodded.

Sonic picked her up like a bride and advised Amy to hold on. She did as she was told and wrapped her arms around his neck. There was a long pause for some reason and Amy looked up at Sonic, only to find him gazing down at her. Before she knew it, Sonic captured her lips in his. Desire melted inside of her once again and too soon, he pulled back.

He began running and Amy leaned her head against his shoulder, enjoying the ride. She closed her eyes as she felt the cool wind whip past her face and through her quills.

"We're here" said Sonic, Amy opening her eyes at the sound of his voice.

They had arrived in front of Amy's home and they stood there for a moment. Sonic placed Amy onto her own two feet.

"Uh, my shoes…?" asked Amy when she felt the cold pavement beneath her feet.

Sonic leaned down and put them in front of her so she could put them on right away. She quickly slipped into them and brushed grass off of her dress and organized her quills slightly.

"I'll see you tomorrow?" she said as she turned to him and united their hands together. Sonic leaned into her and lay his lips upon hers once again.

"Mhmm" he said against her lips.

Amy giggled and pushed him away slightly. "I don't want my nosy mom watching us through the window, which she probably is" she smiled

Sonic laughed as he released all of her, but one hand. "I had an excellent time with you, Amy Rose" he said.

"So did I" she smiled and squeezed his hand lightly.

Amy almost yelped when Sonic tugged her hand and made her fall into him. "Good night, sweetheart" he murmured against her quills.

Amy's heart leapt with joy at the sound of 'sweetheart'. She felt as if she was his, and only his to protect.

"Night" she breathed and finally released each other.

Sonic didn't leave until the door had closed fully behind her. He walked home with his hands in his pockets and his head held high. Tonight had been the night he'd been dreaming of for a long time. Amy was finally his. Although it had never been said between the two that they were now an 'official' couple, the feelings experienced tonight were certainly spoke for how they felt about one another.

When Sonic approached his home, he frowned when he saw a police car parked outside of his home. He was then reminded of the email, but it now had absolutely no concern to him. Although he still was curious as to who had written it, but that was all.

He entered and was automatically greeted by two police officers. His mom smiled weakly at him as she stood in between them.

"Sweetie, the officers finally have information about the email" said his mother as she approached him.

"We managed to track the sender down" said one of the officers in a husky tone.

There was a brief silence in the air making Sonic tense with the suspense. "Who is it?" blurted Sonic out loud.

"Tell us, Sonic. What is your relationship between you and Rouge Bat?" asked an officer.

*.*.*.*

"The dance was sooooo much fun" laughed Rouge as she walked along side Mina. Their heels tapped loudly against the pavement as they walked home together.

"I know! Hey, did you see Amy at all tonight?" asked Mina curiously.

"No I didn't. She even said she was going to be there, too" replied Rouge. She shrugged her shoulders. "Whatever. She missed out on a great night"

"That's for sure. Well, then" said Mina as they approached Rouge's home. "see you on Monday" called out Mina as she walked down the street.

"See ya" called Rouge. She adjusted her strapless black dress, pulling it down so it didn't reveal as much. She'd definitely get it from her mother if she didn't look 'decent'.

She walked inside her home and was relieved when her mother was nowhere to be seen. She took of her four-inch heels and quietly padded upstairs. Halfway there, an urgent knock was heard on the door.

Rouge frowned and leaned her head out, seeing if anyone was going to get it. The knock was heard again and Rouge groaned loudly as she returned downstairs.

When she opened the door, her ears fell back when two police officers towered over her.

"Rouge Bat?" asked one of the officers in an intimidating voice.

Rouge nodded lightly.

"Who's at the door?" came a voice from the hallway and sure enough, came out Rouge's mother in a pink robe, hair curlers on her head, and a green facial mask covering her face.

"Rouge, can you please clarify that you are the sender of this email towards Sonic?" asked the other officer as he handed a sheet of paper with the email that looked eerily familiar to her.

Busted.

uh oh! well, now that the identity of the email sender has been revealed and not to mention THE KISS *input girliest screech in the entire world* what might be in store for the lovley couple? stay tuuuunned~ BIG HUG TO ALL OF YOU SUPPORTERS I LOVE & ADORE YOU ALL.
