❤ Engaged To My Enemy 🚫 [ SonAmy AU ]

Chapter 8 | 'The Duel'

•••

"She was the most beautiful and understanding person I knew, too perfect to be even in this world. I guess maybe that's why they killed her."

I looked at him in shock, "How can you say that without any feeling? Aren't you hurt or even angry?" He looked at me, his expressions seems to tell me that he's either suprised or confused. He just looked at me, his eyes doesn't tell me any emotion. Was there even any emotion from what he just said?

"I do feel angry but overtime... I just want them dead." He said. I gasped, "What? Why? Aren't you doing the same as what they did--" He cutted me off and gave me a glare, "What I want or think doesn't have to do anything with you, all I want is revenge. That's what she kept me alive for, and I'm sure she thirsts for that too."

I gritted my teeth and slammed my fists on the table, causing the plates and the untentils to jump. Sonic also jumped in suprise and looked at me. "How can you be so sure that she wants you to avenge her? Don't you think that maybe she doesn't want you to cause more trouble in the name of her death?"

Sonic glared at me, "Stop acting like you even care, what I do and what I want is up for me to decide." I looked at him sadly and remembered that I shouldn't even care, he is right, I can't control him. I sighed in defeat and leaned against the chair again, "Sorry." I muttered.

Dinner went on, with me and Sonic eating quietly. I was really trying to make eye-contact with him to lighten things up a bit, but he just averted his gaze to the ocean from time to time. My ears drooped, and I bit my fork continously. Dessert time came, and I happily asked the waiter for tiramisu and some earl grey tea. If we won't talk, I guess I'll just have to make myself happy for a bit.

The waiter smiled after I told him what I want and asked Sonic after, but instead of saying it, Sonic told the waiter to come closer and only whispered to him. I couldn't hear anything, but it didn't stop me from trying to. The waiter only nodded and rushed back to the kitchen. I was confused but I just shrugged it off.

I stood up and leaned on the railings, viewing the illuminated ocean. The waves was now calmer than before and the moon shined brightly, I could see a thousand sea creatures in the ocean. I was in awe, and I guess Sonic noticed too since I heard him chuckled softly.

"What?" I asked. I shouldn't have asked him that question because when I did, he showed me a smile I couldn't forget. It was a soft smile, but maybe it was his aura that made my heart... WAIT WHAT. I looked away and touched my heart, wondering why my heart was beating so fast. "It's amazing isn't it?" Sonic said, looking at the ocean. I nodded, "It is."

"I love looking at the ocean. It always reminds me that even though it may look dangerous and threatening above during a storm, it still won't be able to cover up of how beautiful it is underneath. Kinda like a person." Sonic smiled. I felt my stomach tingle and nodded, "It does....remind me of you." I looked at him and his face was also illuminated by the moonlight, he looks so... angelic.

Sonic chuckled, "Me? How?" I nervously laughed and shrugged, "Maybe because you may look rough and unapproachable in the outside, but just now... you showed me a bit of how deep your thinking is and gentle you are in the inside." Sonic stared at me in silent, and I couldn't tell what he was thinking about, but all I noticed was the smile he was trying to hide when I said that.

"Amy.. I'm--"

"Your desserts are here!" The waiter announced. I rejoiced and clapped happily, "My tiramisu and tea!" I cried happily. I paused and noticed another cake in the waiters other hand, it seems like.... a chocolate and strawberry cake in one plate?!
