SonAdow High School Life

Detour, Robbery, and Confessions of Love

 During a presentation; which was extremely boring and hard to keep my interest, my mind began to wonder. My arm didn't hurt as bad anymore and I thought back on what Shadow had said. He compared me to a flower... Or should I say he wouldn't compare me to a flower... Yet somehow, knowing his actions and opposite reactions, could it be that in his mind he was actually calling me a flower?

That was probably a slim chance, but the way he acted when Amy was around was clear jealousy. I felt myself smile; it tickled me to have him jealous, because he was being serious about liking me!

Then I felt a bit worried... Why exactly do I feel like I like him back? Is it because I was just going along with it? If so then it seems that Amy might like me more than a friend as well, should I like her just because she likes me? And in that case I'll end up just with anyone who says they like me!

But no, there was something else. There was the fact that I know I might be able to help him. But then I’ll just be used and pushed aside when he's got the handle on things.

I'm over thinking things aren't I?? Yet I can't help feeling that somehow this will be a big 'adventure' rather than a "normal" high school romance, as I feel it would be with Amy.

But I'm always up for adventure, so there's no time for cold feet. I have to tell Shadow before I over think things again.

This lesson in class pretty much went over my head as I was handed a packet of homework to complete by tomorrow. I'm screwed. Damn you Shadow! Always on my mind now...

There was 2 classes left for the day and they seemed to drag ass. I was half asleep when the last bell rang and first one out the door running at the speed of sound (hah literally!) I wonder if I'd catch Shadow on my way home.

"Sonic!" Amy cried running up to me, "Are you okay?"

"Um yes, why?"

"Just making sure that your arm was okay."

"Yeah it's fine."

"How are you getting home?" She asked again hooking her arm with mine.

"I'm walking." I answered.

"Oh... I ride the bus." She said sounding disappointed.

"Oh? That must stink." I chuckled.

"Yes! It's crowded and loud and there's a lot of pervs and jerks on there I hate it! But I live too far to walk and mom and dad can't drive me for... Various reasons." she shrugged keeping her head low. Wow the bus sounds depressing.

"Well..." I started but hesitated on my idea. She looked up at me waiting. "Um I could run you there."

She laughed, "You're joking."

"Well you obviously never saw me run at gym then! No I'm not joking, I'll run you home."

Her face blushed, "Well I... If you insist." We walked out to the front of the school where I then picked her up bridal style.

Her face was completely red and she began to squeal.

"Hehe where's your house?" I asked.

"Th-th-that w-way!" She pointed to the right nervously.

"Relax its okay just hold tight." I took off in the direction she pointed.
