❤ Engaged To My Enemy 🚫 [ SonAmy AU ]

Chapter 19 |'In Awe' [ 5 ]

Sonic's POV:

"Geez, why is it so cold?" I muttered. My mom looked at me, "What do you mean? The ac is at medium level." I shook my head, "Beats me, I'm getting the chills." She looked at me blankly before she gave me a smile, "Oh, maybe the wind made it's way here." Before she looked at the front again. "Huh?" I thought.

How will the wind get here?

I shook it off and listened to the boring introduction and other announcements, it was very boring. Well... it's always like this every year. People just host parties to show-off how rich they are, typical rich people. The kids here are no different, just like Scourge, they value family names and riches before other things. Don't get me wrong, I'm no different.

But I didn't want this life in the first place, I never chose this. They say that we must thank our creator for all the blessings, but to me... this feels like a nightmare. A long nightmare.

Sally is different, she works hard to get what she wants and doesn't ask things from her parents. Her parents are like angels, but sometimes, they're too nice. Well, it's not really a problem compared to the problems we have in our world. But sometimes it became a problem that even Sally has to step in so they won't be scammed in fake deals and collaborations.

That's why my mom decided to get her engaged with me years ago, but it didn't work out because Sally was against it. I am also since both of us don't have any romantic feelings for each other before and during the engagement.

"Please welcome, Sonic 'Mexuis'! As he would be performing a song number to start the party." Miss 'Barington' announced. I looked at my mother in shock, she could've told me that I would be performing this evening instead of letting me find out just now. "What? You should have expected this, since we're the co-hosts we also have to make an entrance." My mother yawned, as she gestured me to go up the stage.

I sighed, annoyed by what she just did. I stood up from my seat and slowly walked up the stage. Even though I have always been expected to sing for a couple of events, I still couldn't get used to the stares and the fake smiles of the people in the room. I know that they're expecting me to make a mistake so that they could shower me with disappointed looks and comments, just to make them appear great and almighty.

A black piano was readied on the stage with a mic. I walked up to the stool and sat on it, and readied my fingers as I think of what song I'm gonna play. Since there's also a band and a back-up singer at the side of the stage, I need to consider them too. I breathed in and out and closed my eyes, as I traced the words my mind knows.

Amy's POV:

"I never thought that he could sing." I thought as I watched him press the starting keys.

As soon as I heard him open his mouth, my mind went blank and just listened to him. His voice was very relaxing and breathy, but somehow it made me and the crowd want to listen to him more. At that stage, he looks like an angel. Every note he sang, made my heart skip a beat as he pressed the piano keys.

He made it sound like he was singing for someone who he lost, and as soon as the back-up singer sang, I was just staring at him in surprise as I watched him closely. Never taking my eyes off of him, as he sang like it was his last show.

The room went quiet for a moment, I was also in awe. I've never seen him pour his heart out on something before, and I was lost in words. The crowd instantly clapped, some cheered, some hollered, and some stood up as they watched Sonic stood up from the stool and bowed on the stage before he went back to his seat.
