The thorn that protects the rose

Chapter 9

Amy's POV
I still had my legs wrapped around shadow when sonic come up to us.
"Shadow I need to talk to you" sonic hissed
"Then talk" shadow said in a firm tone
"Alone" sonic said
"Alright then faker "
I had no choice but to unwrap my legs, I didn't want to let go.i watched as shadow and sonic walked onto the beach.
"What's sonics deal tonight " blaze asked
"I have no idea " tails said
"So you and shadow huh? " rouge said looking at me
"Oh no it's not like that " I said rubbing my arm
"Amy it's okay we can all tell he likes you, why else would he be here "  blaze said
"You really think so ?" I said
"Oh course ! Do you see the way he looks at you girl!" Rouge yelled
"I've never seen shadow talk this much in my whole life" said knuckles
"You two are so cute together" said cream
"Thanks guys" I said with a smile
"And plus you seem way happier with shadow then you have ever looked with sonic" rouge said and the others nodded.i looked up and shadow and sonic
"I better go check on them, they look like they are going to fight"
Everyone fallowed me out
"Stay away from her "sonic hissed as he threw a punch. Shadow moved a little to the right dodging the punch.
" touch me and I'll fucking kill you" shadow yelled
"Fuck you!" Sonic yelled
"Hey boys calm down!" Rouge yelled as she walked up to them
"What's going on " I asked
But they ignored us
"Stay away from Amy !" Sonic yelled
"Why should I you didn't care about her until I showed up"shadow hissed
"You're just trying to steal Amy away from me"
"excuse you!? " I yelled
Both of them looked At me
"Sonic are you being serious right now we broke up over a month ago"
"Let's just calm down everyone" cream said
"Beat his ass shadow !" Rouge called out
"Sonic don't fight him you know you will lose " silver said
"Oh please I'm not going to fight him, he isn't worth the energy " shadow said coldly
"Oh shut up !" Sonic yelled
"Guys stop" I said
Shadow looked at me and nodded. Sonic was still full of anger.
"Sonic lets go for a walk, and when we get back I expect everything to go back to the way it was before all this" I said looking at sonic
"Alright Ames " sonic said lowering his voice
Me and sonic walked off, I could feel shadows eyes watching me and I could tell already that he wasn't happy about me walking off with sonic. Once we got away from the beach we started to talk.
"So what was that about" I asked
"I guess I just got jealous ... I'm not used to seeing you with other guys and I guess when I saw you with shadow it brought back some memories from use dating and stuff..."
"I'm sorry sonic but I have moved on and I really do like shadow"
"I could tell..."
"Sorry ...but you are just going to have to get used to it, you left me for Sally..and I just had to get used to it"
"Yeah but that's different " he said
"How?" I said looking at him
"Shadow is a bad guy , he has worked for eggman for years and you see nothing wrong with that .... I just want to protect you..."
" he isn't a bad guy...he is just ... Different .. A lot of stuff happened to him and he is just having problems figuring out where he fits in at"
"He fits in with the bad guys" sonic snapped
"Just try and be nice , he isn't so bad" I said
We finally made it back to the beach
"Please try and give shadow a chance, and stay out of our love life okay ?"
He sighed and nodded
"Thanks sonic " I said as I ran down the little hill over to shadow.
"Hey shadow " I said with a smile but he didn't look at me.
"Shadow ?" I sat next to him on my towel
"You don't have to say anything, I already know " he said
"What are you talking about ?" I asked
"I know you are going to get back together with sonic." He said as he closed his eyes
" what ! Ew no never " I said as I gave him a little push
"Really ?" He said as he looked at me
"Yeah I don't what him ...I want something a little more ..ultimate" I said with a smile
I stood up and started walking down to the water. I looked back at shadow who was smirking.
"Coming?"
"You have to carry me" he said teasing me
"But I can't, I'm not strong enough "
He shrugs
"Guess I'll have to stay here " he said
"What if you carry me instead ?" I asked
"Alright that will work " he said as he stood up
I smiled as I walked over to him
"Oh never mind, I'm far to weak to carry you" he said with a smirk
"Omg stop teasing me and get in the water " I said as I grabbed his hand. We walked back down to the water and shadow walked in and I fallowed. He held out his hand and I grabbed it, he pulled me closer to him.
"Tomorrow would you like to go out for lunch ?" He asked
"Like a date" I asked
"I guess you could say that" he said
"Okay it's a date then " I smiled
"amy it's time to get out of the water ! It's getting late!" Rouge called
"Okay" I yelled back
Shadow got out of the water and I fallowed he picked my my towel and handed it too me
"Thanks shad"
He only nodded
"Shadow ?"
"Yes Rose " he said looking at me
"Can I sleep over at your house again ?...."
"Uh yeah I guess so " he said
