Chapter 1 - Amy's decision

This is a story based on a relationship I've once had with a person 
This is a story based on a relationship I'veonce had with a person. I suppose a crush would be a better word for it. Eventhough mine never worked out, this is a story of how one did. A trueone............................
 
 
 
 
Amy: But Sonic, when areyou coming back?
 
Sonic: (sighs) Oh, I dunno, maybe around nine tonight.
 
Sonic hadjust dropped byAmy's to seewhat's been goingon. Amy hadbeen both surprisedand excited byhis visit. After ahome cooked lunch, Sonic has just gotten upto go . Amy hadhoped he'd wantto stay.......
 
Amy:(disappointed) That late?
 
Sonic: Yeah, why? (curious)
 
Amy: Ithought we coulddo something......
 
Sonic: Um, like what?
 
Amy:(blushing) Like seea movie orsomething. Or we couldjust talk....
 
Sonic: Sorry Amy, I'm just toobusy tonight, maybesome other......
 
Amy:(snaps) But you'lljust say thesame thing tomorrow,won't you?
 
Sonic's alittle startled atthe sudden burstof words. Amy's lookingat him intently.
 
Amy: Imean, it's always tomorrow,later, maybe, orsomething, isn't it?
 
Sonic: Look, Amy....
 
Amy: Are you scared tobe with me? Isthat it? If youreally don't likeme, just tell menow!!
 
Sonic: Why are you beinglike this? I'm justbusy tonight!
 
Amy: Sonic, since all thetime I've knownyou, we've never beenon a date or anything!! It hurts not knowingif you truely
love meor not!! (tears up)
 
Sonic: Amy, you're puttingway too muchdrama into this, asusual.....
 
Amy: Then, tell meplain and simple, Doyou love me?
 
Sonic avoidseye contact ashe gets upfor the door.
 
Sonic: I've got to go......
 
Amy walksup to him and takeshis hand inhers.
 
Amy: Please, I wantto know..........
 
Sonic couldfeel the emotionsrunning wild inhis head ashe looked ather. Love was onething he wasn'tsure about.
It wastrue he didhave feelings forAmy, but whichones? What was loveand what wasnot? Countless nights hehad thought
about it, sometimes even dreaming it. Buthe was never sure..........
 
Sonic: (looking at her) I don'tknow.......
 
Amy trembledas she slowly let herhand slide outof his as she backedaway. The hurt wasall over herface. Sonic walked up andtried to comforther , but she pushedhim off.
 
Sonic: Idon't want tohurt you.......I neverwanted to hurtyou......
 
Amy:(crying) No, ......please, leave.......
 
Sonic: (hurt) Amy, don't dothis.
 
Amy:(covers her eyes) GET OUT!!! NOW!! (runs to her bedroom)
 
Sonic triedto chase herbut the doorshut on himand he heard the clickof the lock. He could hearher sob
on theother side. He wantedto be there with her, totell her hehad not meantit. But, there was noway she'd listen
to himnow. Sonic slowly walkedout the frontdoor, feeling both miserableand guitly.
 
 
.............................................................................................................................................................................
 
 
Tails: .....Sonic, Ican't believe yousaid that................
 
Sonic: But, I....didn'tknow.......but, then Idid and wantedto tell her.......
 
Tails islistening as Sonic tells what happened at Amy's.
 
Tails: Sonic, you maynot know itbut, I think youreally do havefeelings for her. Youjust don't knowhow
to expresseach one. Protecting herand making herhappy are twodifferent things.
 
Sonic: I'd kill myself ifI ever saw that lookon her face again.....
 
Tails watchedSonic's expression asit wrinkled inpain.
 
Tails: Sonic, Do youlove Amy ornot?
 
Sonic:(snaps) Why areyou asking methat?
 
Tails: Answer the question, Sonic.
 
Sonic: Ican't!!
 
Tails: Fine, why don'tyou love her?
 
Sonic: I, (sighs) Tails, I justdon't know......
 
Tails wasshocked as hesaw the rim oftears in hiseyes. Maybe he hadgone too far.
 
Sonic: I just, can't bring myself to doit. To tell her.......I'm such a coward......
 
Tails: Sonic, maybe she'sjust better thanyou.
 
Sonic: (looks up) Oh, thanx Tails......
 
Tails: No, she's betterthan you atadmitting that sheloves you. It seemsto me that she's hadthese feelings maybeeven longer
than you'vehad. She's learned theonly way tosatisfy them, is toexpress them toyou. She's already usedto the pain.
Thepain of younever wanting tobe with her. Youtry to satisfy your feelingfor her byignoring or rejectingthem. It's hurting you
worse thanto just expressthem. I think she'sstronger than evenyou......
 
Sonic staresoff into space, taking all this in.He smiles, as hethinks of everytimeshe's openly toldhim how muchshe loves him.
Even whenhe put her off, she stillmanaged a smilewith the hopesof another time. Thathope must hadfinally gone outtoday.
 
Sonic:(dazed) I never realized it........
 
Tails: Now, Sonic, do youlove her ornot?
 
Sonic thoughtabout what Tailshad said ashe thought ofan answer. It allmade sense tohim now. It wasnever Amy whomade him feeluncomfortable
or annoyed. Itwas him rejectinghis feelings forher, every time. He thought aboutAmy, what it'd belike to finallytell her. He had neveradmitted it buthe had always loved hersmile.....
 
Sonic getsup and grabs Tails, squeezing himtightly. Tails is stunned.
 
Sonic: Thanks, buddy....
 
Tails: Umm, ah, your welcome?
 
Sonic flashedhim a grin before hesped off intothe sunset. Tailssmiled as thoughtabout what hewould say.............
 
 
............................................................................................................................................................................
 
 
 
 
Sonic carefullysteps inside, slowly closingAmy's front door. Putting the roses, cards,candies, and balloons on thetable, Sonic took adeep breath.
 
Sonic: Here it goes......
 
Sonic knockson Amy's bedroomdoor twice, as hesteps inside. It's empty.......
 
Sonic: Hmmm, maybe shewent out forsomething....
 
Sonic walksaround her room, looking at some ofthe trinkets andpictures. He hadnever been inher room alonebefore. He stops suddenly,as
something crunchesunder his foot. Looking down, he notices it'sa picture frame. Amywas hugging Sonic, ashe slightly lookedhappy. The glass was everywhere.
 
Sonic:*thinking* Did she breakit? She's gotta still beupset I guess....
 
As Sonicstarts to leavethe room, he noticesa note on her dresser. Hepicks it upas he takes in eachword, as his heartsinks.........
