Ch. 3

By: Cutegirlmayra(Hey, I'm not feeling very good right now…, but that doesn't mean I'm not gonna write this chapter! I've got to pull through! For all of you! Haha, ugh… anyway, I'll try and do my best, thanks for the support! Now.. let's see what Rosy and Sonic are gonna be up to today...)

Tails and Sonic were still peacefully in bed, snoozing right along when there little noses smelled something.

Tails was buddle up in his tails, when he slowly uncurled and sniffed the air, eyes still closed. "..Ehmm… S-Sonic..? Do you…" he sniffed again, "Wow…smell that?"

Sonic was no where to be seen, in his bed was only a big bump under the covers. You could hear small grunt noises as he inched his muzzle up to his pillow, and his long nose began to wiggle around, before he pushed up the blanket, revealing his sleepy face. "Smells like Bacon…and.." he sniffed some more. "Eggs,… Pancakes?"

The two stopped for a moment, before flipping off the blankets and landing on the floor, "PANCAKES?!"

The two dashed downstairs, Tails looking like a kid waking up on his birthday, when they entered the kitchen. Knuckles was already there, eating, when he turned around with big, wide chibi eyes. "I've found Heaven." He said, with a fork in his mouth. "And she holds the key to the gates.." he looked back at Rosy, who was making some more Pancakes as she turned around and smiled. She was wearing an Apron that said, 'Kiss the Cook' with hearts on it as she brought over a new patch. "Thanks, Knux!" she cutely said and handed him some more. "You boys ready to eat?" she excitedly said, holding up the trays of food proudly.

"Would we?!" The two boys sat down, mouths watering.

"Here you go!" she handed them the delicious goodies.

"Wow… Bancon, eggs, and pancakes. My kinda girl…" Sonic said and smiled quickly towards Rosy's direction, making her blush, before he took a bite.

"Hehe~" She giggled, and silently was squeeing on the inside. "Hey, didn't you forget something?" she commented, placing her hands on her hips and holding her head up with pride.

"Hmm?" The boys looked up, all having their faces stuffed.

"Eh-hem." Rosy glared slightly, raising an eyebrow.

"Uhh…" the boys looked to one another. "…Grace?"

"No, sillies! A thank you!" Rosy rolled her eyes.

"Oh… Thanks!"

"Thanks…"

"Sonic?"

"Welcome."

"What?!"

Rosy looked upset, "Why would you say that?" she asked, not sure what he was doing and folding her arms.

"I let you sleep in my house. This should be your thank you. Not mine." He stated, eating some more.

"Sonic… Don't be-" Tails began, but was cut off when Rosy slammed her hands on the table, making the dishes wobble a bit.

"Rude! How, completely, disrespectfully, RUDE." She stated, outraged.

"I know right? Asking me to say thank you…haha." Sonic continued eating his meal, but Rosy yanked it away. "Hey! I wasn't done with that!"

"No more food for you until you can be polite!" She huffed out and was about to take the plate back to the counter when Sonic dashed up and took it from her, quickly going back to his seat. She was about to place the plate down, but noticed it wasn't in her hands anymore and turned around, seeing Sonic eating again. "OOOOh!" She whined. "Fine then! Have a good day, boys!" she took off her apron and stomped toward the door, opening it, she screamed just before she left, "AND THANK YOU, JERK!" before slamming the door after her.

Knuckles and Tails flinched, as Sonic relaxingly ate his food. "Your welcome! Geez, a bit of a drama queen, ain't she?"

"Sonic…' Tails looked back at him, disappointedly.

"YOU FOOL! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?" Knuckles emerged from his chair, knocking it back and having it fall to the ground. "That was the only decent meal we've ever had! You better say your sorry to her, or so help me I'll-!"

"Both of you stop it!" Tails got up now too, holding his hands out to both the boys faces. "Sonic, Knuckles is right." He said, turning to Sonic with a serious look in his eyes, and a deep frown. "You started this, you make up for it!"

"Knuckles? Right? Hahahaha!" Sonic started to laugh, taking a piece of bacon and tearing at it as he chewed. "That's news. Front page I'd say."

"Sonic…"

"SONIC!"

"Alright, Alright. But it's not like we can let her live here." Sonic folded his arms, still having half the bacon sticking out of his mouth. "If I didn't do that, she would of never left." He stated.

"…uh,…huh?" The other two looked to each other, and then back at Sonic.

"What's wrong with her living here?" Knuckles asked. "I could always help build another room…" he shrugged.

"Yeah, and good meals, Sonic!" Tails began too, putting both hands on the table, looking excited. "Plus… you said you-"

"She's a girl, mates! She can't live with three dudes!" Sonic spat back at them, and got up swiftly, drinking some milk and wiping away the mustache. "It's just better this way." He stated.

"…fine." Knuckles looked away, still angry as he folded his arms. "But you still didn't have to be like that to her. She didn't do anything wrong!" He defended.

"That's true, and she cares about you so much…" Tails continued, holding a finger to his mouth as his tails moved slightly. "You should still say your sorry, or at least make it up to her."

"What are you guys now, huh? Wusses?" Sonic looked back at them, leaning forward with his hands to his sides and questioning them. "When a little girl gets between good ol'friends, there's a problem. Be glad I saved us from that too." He then dashed to the door before the boys could say anything back. "By the way, the girl's gonna like me no matter what I do. Trust me. She doesn't let up." He then sighed, moving a hand up and to it's side in a little shrug. "But if you really think I was to harsh, I'll do something sweet for her, alright? That breakfast deserved it anyway." He then dashed out the door with a blue blur behind him.

Tails sighed, seeing him leave, "He just doesn't know how to handle girls, does he?"

"I wouldn't say he's scared too, but Sonic never did like the unknown." Knuckles commented, starting to clean up with Tails.

"Yeah… but that never stopped him from diving." Tails smiled, remembering Sonic being kind to her just he night before. "I think he really likes her, even if he doesn't show it. I can kinda tell he does… you think he crushing on her?"

"What!? Sonic, in love?!" Knuckles looked shocked, and almost lost balance as the plates in his arms wobbled to the sides a lot. "Woah…woah-hohoho!" He quickly got them to the sink, almost lunging for it. "Phew…" He let out a sigh of relief, seeing none were broken. "If he was in love, he's got one weird and funny way of showing it." Knuckles responded, dusting himself off and moved to straighten his hat, which wasn't on. "Hmm? Hey, where'd I put my hat?"

-In the forest fields and plains near the Palmtree Panic Zone, back on the Little Planet-

Rosy had personally built an obstacle course and training ground in this forest near the tropical paradise where she first met Sonic, hoping to be able to one day impress the hedgehog with her skill and strength.

However… after that fight… She was using it more as a rage release then a work out section… She had climbed back up to The Little Planet once Sonic had made her mad, and wasn't planning to go back down near Green Hill Zone anytime soon…

"How could he say that to me!? After my delicious cooking was filling his belly too!" She threw her hammer at a target, and then swung around to stop a log tied up with vines that flew right at her, and swung it away. "GRRRR it just makes me so.. so… ARUGH!" she slammed her hammer into a few boulders that were triggered to fall when the log was pushed again a button on a tree behind it. She slammed them away, and back up onto the rock way, aiming precisely so that they landed back in position for the next time the button was pushed.

"Doesn't he know I care… I mean… not just that but… last night he… he.." tears were about to be formed, but she shook them off, and patted her cheeks together. "No! I won't cry! I simply won't! He's still a hero and a nice guy deep down inside… I just wonder why he was so… so two-faced right then and there.." she looked up at the sky, seeing the big white clouds float along and to Palmtree panic's zone. Hoping up on a few trees, she held onto the trunk as she stood on a branch, her hammer down and to the side of her, as she watched the landscape that her and Sonic had first met on. She sighed, leaning against the trunk, "…Why Sonic? … What have I done wrong?.. Can't you love me, as much as I love you?" she placed her back on the tree and looked down, not sure what to do anymore, and not in the mood to practice either.

Suddenly, a gust of wind picked up and she looked down to see Sonic stopping on point in the middle of her training area. He looked around, hands on his hips as he looked slightly annoyed, looking for something… he walked around and started laughing, seeing the gizmos Rosy installed and wanting to try them out. "Hehe… well, this could be fun." He stated, rubbing his hands together.

Rosy watched from her tree as Sonic dodged and moved through her training routine as if it was fun and easy for him. The problem was he wasn't setting the traps up again, like Rosy had done with her boulders, and she pouted. Knowing how long it was gonna take her to set it up again, she quickly jumped down and started to secretly set it up again, not wanting Sonic to see her, and not really wanting to talk to him right now either.

"Woo! Now that was a rush!" Sonic said, stretching upward and then moving on to his legs. "So,… your around here right?" Sonic called, moving around, looking in a good mood now. "Bet you're the one that set up the beginning again right? I didn't tick you off by not going back right?" He walked around, missing the bush that Rosy had hidden in.

"Aw, come on now. I was always under the impression you wanted to see me." He teased and continued to race around, trying to find her. "You can hide, but you can't run…" he joked, and suddenly saw a bush ruffled a little bit, as Rosy was trying to get away. He smiled, and got on all fours, crawling up to it. Stopping, and wiggling his butt slightly, he got down in a pounce like position and wagged his tail profusely. "GOT YA!" he jumped in, making Rosy squeak in fright as they rolled down a path near Palmtree Panic.

Landing on top, Sonic slowly got off and laughed, "Now, what made you think you could get past Sonic the Hedgehog, eh?" He teased, doing exactly what she did to him, but in his own style, as he calmly got up and then sat on her, just like she used to do. "Well?"

Rosy grumbled, not liking being bested as she struggled to get up. "I thought you were being mean to me! What's with the suddenly playful attitude!?" she demanded to know, putting her hands and arms in front of her and trying to maybe see if she could push Sonic off her like he did her.

"Hehe, well… I didn't think it was right to be so harsh in the morning to ya. Not after that meal… so I came to play with you today." He rubbed his finger under his nose, trying not to look down and make eye contact with her. As she did mini push ups to try and get him off, he relaxed even more like he was on a chair as she went up and down. Placing a hand on her back, and kicking one foot up and to the side on his other leg, while talking with his other hand up to the side, "I thought you'd be overjoyed, to be honest." He then looked down, smiling evily, knowing she was trying to get up. He wickedly bounced on her, lifting his bum up and slamming it back down as she fell back down to the grass.

"Why you…!" She growled, having anger marks on her forehead. "How is this making it up to me!? Why were you rude in the first place? Did you even mean what you said last night!?" Rosy was getting more and more upset, trying hard not to cry but her mouth wiggled as she tried to hold in her tears. "It's… it's not nice… to play with a girl's heart like that… you know." She couldn't help it now, tears were forming, making Sonic look down and move over her.

"H-hey… your not crying are you?" He asked, he was so used to play wrestling with Tails and Knuckles, he wasn't used to crying at the end of them at all. "H-hey! Okay! Okay! I'm off, I'm off." He moved off, confused, but kept his hands out toward her in case she needed help. She got up and wiped her tears, glaring at him before looking away. "…So… You promise to make it up to me by playing with me today..?" she sniffed, rubbing her eyes some more, but peeking a glance back at him every now and then.

"Geez, you act tough, but your really just a cry baby huh?" Sonic folded his arms, looking her over carefully. "I just can't figure you out."

Rosy looked back at him with a frown, "Yes or no?" she demanded to know.

"Alright, alright, Sheesh." Sonic tried to calm her down by moving his arms up and down. "I'll play with you."

"Promise?" She got up and personal in his face, making him lean back and look slightly uncomfortable. This isn't something he was used to either…

He gulped, "I..I promise." As a tear drop formed on the side of his face. "But only if you keep it fun and interesting." He mumbled to her.

Still only being a few inches from his face, she carefully looked over his expression, and decided he was telling the truth. "Good, then I forgive you." She leaned back, seeming to be alright now.

"Sheesh… you sure know how to interrogate like a tough guy, huh?" Sonic said, rubbing his head as she smirked.

"TAG!" she screamed, jumping on him and hugging him for a moment, giggling. "Hehe, now it's your turn!" she ran off, rolling into a ball and moving through some of the courses in Palmtree Panic.

"Huh?!" Sonic was surprised to see her sudden moodswing. He sighed, "I'll never understand wemon…" and then got up, dashing to find her. "Playing tag with the fastest Hedgehog in the world? You're just asking to lose. Not to mention I've gone through this course past, present, and future. Your toast!" he called out, spinning up into a loop-de-loop and moving through the course quickly to her. "TAG!" he spin dashed into her ball and dashed away, jumping up a waterfall.

"Haha! Hey! I was born on the little planet! You think I can't stop you!?" She laughed and used her hammer to propel herself up by smashing the hammer down and using the momentum of the impact to push herself off the ground. Sonic hit the top when she was one hit away from making it there herself.

Looking behind him, he gasped slightly, and smiled. "Well, all-be. You really are a tomboy at heart, aren't ya?" he teased.

"Hup, ceyah!" she made it up and next to him, smiling. "I'm pretty average." She spun her hammer around, trying to impress him as she struck a poise.

"RRRrrright, well, let's see if you can prove that. Ready!?" he looked about ready to fight.

"W-wait, now?" Rosy got into position, but knew she was probably going to lose to him.. She had fought him in a tournament before for a emerald, she knew she wasn't going to win against him at all! But she smiled, knowing this meant he wasn't bored and wanted to spend more time with her, so she readied herself for his infamous spin attack!

The two spent the rest of the day play fighting, hide and seek, tagging one another, or racing till the sun was going down. At that moment, Sonic was carrying her bridal style back down from the little planet.

"..Sonic?" Rosy asked, looking behind Sonic and her at the Little planet, still held down with Eggman's Chain.

"Hmm? What is it, Rosy?" He asked, looking down at her.

"…Why did you keep me?" She looked up at him, being sincere.

"Hmm? Keep you? What do you mean? You're the one that threw yourself at me." Sonic joked around.

"No, no. I mean… when that Metal you kidnapped me. I was really scared, but you saved me and brought me down here, to this planet. "She looked down, seeing the world she never really knew about. "Tell me, honestly… when you saved me. Did you want to keep me?" she looked back up at him, as his face was hidden in the shadows of the sunset sky.

When they landed, they were on a cliff looking out on a beautiful sunset, the ocean beneath them. He walked up to the cliff's edge, and folded his arms. "….You… you were… in need of me. I could tell that…" he began, as Rosy placed her hands together, and up to her mouth, this was something she'd always wanted to ask him, but never really knew how until now. "The thing is, Rosy. You're my damsel in distress. I couldn't leave you… not after all that happened to you because of me. Seeing you so happy one second, just meeting and being around me, to all of a sudden be so scared and helpless when you were caught by Metal Sonic… as I ran to try and save you, and was unable too, I saw the terror in your eyes." Sonic stopped a moment, looking down, and taking a deep breath. It seemed this was odd for him, like he wasn't used to talking about his thoughts or feelings. "I.. I kinda made a vow then.." he continued, and slowly turned his head around to her. "I promised… I would protect you, and never let something like that happen again. I wouldn't allow you to be afraid anymore… not when your around me. I would give anything… to make sure your safe and smiling." He then looked back ahead, trying to play it off cool now. "Besides, you're getting stronger, soon you won't need me around ya to keep you safe, so-"

"That's not true!" Rosy began, rushing up to him, but not touching him. Having her arm extended to him, she withdrew it back, as he turned around, curiously studying her eyes. "I… I'll always need you… alone, I'm so afraid… I have no confidence in my skills. I mean… I can fight if I really need to, but I know my limits… but with you, there are no limits!" she seemed to be getting more happier as she spoke, as Sonic silently listened to her. "You can go as fast as you want, Sonic! There's nothing stopping you, not even the wind can repel you back! You give me courage… and I know I'll need you to save me. I don't know how I know… but I do. That day… when I met you. I was looking over my Tarot cards, and was about to pick one, when you rushed by… at that second, I didn't know which card I was about to pick, but out of all the cards, one was flipped over, and had flew right in front of me. Not even caring about the others, I picked it up and it said, 'Destined'. I knew right then and there that I would always be with you. That you were the love of my life! And when you said you'd be my hero…" she grew quieter, as she pulled herself away from him, and stepped back a bit. Having her hands up to her chest, she looked down, closing her eyes, and smiled nervously. "I always want to be with you, Sonic. Because I too, made a vow that day." She looked up, smiling cutely as Sonic's eyes widened.

The wind blew past her, moving her quills slightly as her skirt gently moved and the last bits of sunlight shone on her beautifully, "That'd I always, be yours and yours alone! Whether I'm your damsel in distress, or just a cute pink hedgehog in a pretty red dress. I'll always… be yours."

-Present day-

Amy rushed into the open field, tackling Sonic as he sat on a cliff near the ocean, seeing the sunset by himself and was slowly dozing off to sleep. "H-hey!"

"Found you! My darling Sonic! What were you doing way out here? Hehe, sleeping I assume? Can I sleep here too?" she immediately laid down beside him, putting her head on his chest as he looked awkward and didn't say anything.

"Really, Amy? Everytime?" he complained.

"Oh, come on now! It took me forever to find you! Anyway, what'cha thinking about?" She asked, looking up at him cutely.

"…." He stared down a moment, and then sighed. Deciding it would be to tiresome to rebel against her, he just kicked his leg up over the other and placed his hands behind his head, yawning. "Just the past." He admitted.

Seeing he was to tired to fight her, Amy smiled and let herself relax a little, knowing she didn't need to fight him back and rested, sighing too. "Was I in it? As little Rosy? Hehe." She giggled.

"…." He opened one eye and peeked down at her, then looked forward, a little annoyed, and replied while he closed the eye again. "Yeah, a little rascal if there ever was one." He rubbed under his nose.

"Haha! Hey, come on. I was just trying to be close to you…" She cooed, slightly stroking his chest with her pointer finger, which made him twitch as she decided not to go to far with this.

"Some things never change.." he grumbled, twitching his eyebrow at her horrible flirting. 'Where does she even learns these things?!' he asked himself.

"Hehe… I remember a sunset like this once.." she let herself slowly doze off, also being tried from her running today. She yawned, slowly blinking her eyelids in drowsiness. "That's the day you said you'd forever protect me… or at least,… letting me know you would. Hmm…" she slowly closed her eyes, nuzzling him a little as she tried to get comfortable next to him. "I knew then that you'd be my hero till the end of time… and that.." she yawned again, as Sonic moved his arm to help her adjust more, seeming to be kinder to her more now. "You'd do whatever it takes… to make me… safe and…happy…" she fell asleep then, breathing deepily, as Sonic chuckled, placing his hand down and sighing.

"Smile… it was smile." He teased, but knew he was right.

"Same… thing…"

"There's a difference. Happy is like your way of saying, 'Marriage' but in code form. Smile is like…" he stopped himself.

She opened her eyes slightly, seeing as he wasn't finishing his sentence and looked up. Moving her head up move, she looked up at him with her big, dark emerald green eyes and asked, "What's smile code for.. then?"

"…." He looked down at her, then 'Tck'ed and looked away, seeming to be upset with himself.

"…Soonicc~ Hey… tell me." She playfully pawed at his nose, trying to get him to speak.

He looked back with an annoyed expression and she stopped, ducking her head down more so her muzzle was halfway covered, still keeping on his chest though. "..Please?"

"…Smile is like code for… uh… well…-

Not alone."

Amy's eyes widened slightly, moving like she was shocked to hear those words. She half way closed her eyes slightly, as she smiled up at him, tilting her ears down slightly. "You won't let me be alone..?" she giggled. "Cause you've been failing a bit." She teased.

He rolled his eyes, and pushed her head down, as she giggled when he snuck in a scratch behind the ears. "Just go to sleep, I'm to tried for this. And the second I wake up-"

"I know, I know. Whether I'm asleep or not, your taking me home." She looked up and smiled even wider now, letting him know she felt safe and liked his company.

"…" Sonic looked away again, slightly blushing.

"Ha!" Amy got up suddenly, seeing his blush. "Are you…blushing!?" Her sleepiness seemed to melt away as Sonic freaked out.

"W-what?! No! It's the sunset! It's rays, you know?" he tried to fake it off.

"Hehe, are you sure?~" she wiggled her finger on his cheek. "Cause I can see it… right there, riiiiight, theeerreee." He whacked her hand away, but gently enough to where she was offended, just laughing at his lie.

"You know, that doesn't help, right?"

"You thought I was cute, admit it."

"….." he narrowed his eyes at her again.

"Come on. Say it." She moved closer to his face, but comically.

"You're not that cute." He said, pushing her face away with one hand. "Now, if you don't got to sleep NOW, I'll have to take you back-"

Before he could say another word, Amy quickly placed her head back down and breathed as if she was asleep, faking though of course.

"…Good." He stated, getting relaxed again as his ear twitched as he heard her giggle. "Go to sleep, Amy." He slightly growled out, as if warning her.

"…hehe, Goodnight, Sonic.." she gently let out.

"…Night, Amy."

"Call me Rosy, hehe, just this once?" She begged cutely, looking up again.

By this time his eyes were closed, and an anger mark was on his face. "GOOD. NIGHT." He stated, very clearly being tried and wanting to just sleep already.

"Ohhh~ fine." Amy pouted, and once Sonic thought she was asleep, moved slightly closer to her and turned his body toward her as well.

"Sleep well, dream of something other than me tonight, and always smile…. Rosy, My little rascal.."

"…Ohh~ MY little rascal?"

"AH! AMY?!"

"Hehe! We're so dating..!"

"WHAT?! We are not! You're supposed to be asleep!"

"Haha… goodnight."

"Grr…"

"Haha… and you're my true, blue hero… Sonic-ku."

She'll always be his, and him her,.

No matter what.

The End.

(Lol, I wish I made them play wrestle more XD)
