(Rouge's POV)

After gym class was done, I head to the Girls' gym locker room to get changed. I gotta say, Knuckie was very good at basketball. When I got in, I saw Nebula trying to stay away from some rude girls. I could tell they want her away from Shadow, so I decided to do something.

I just took Nebula's arm to get her away from the angry expressions on the rude girls. We both sat on a bench somewhere else in the locker room.

"Nebula. Why were they staring angrily at you?" I asked her.

"They want me to get away from Shadow I guess" Nebula said.

"They're just jealous, hon. Don't let them try to steal your sexy boyfriend" I said to her.

"I won't let that happen. I am glad you are on my side" Nebula said.

"Yep. And I hope Knuckles can control his anger one day" I said.

"Yeah, but sometimes he's funny when he gets grumpy" Nebula giggled.

"Yeah. He really is a grumpy boy" I giggled as well.

Later after we changed, we both headed out from the locker room with Amy.

"Amy. How's it going for you and Sonic?" I asked Amy.

"Just fine. He and I are still best friends" Amy said.

"Well he might become your boyfriend" I teased her.

"Ha ha....very funny, Rouge" she playfully rolled her eyes.

"You'll see" I chuckled and left both her and Nebula.

(Sonic's POV)

"Don't give me that grumpy pouty face, Shadow" I playfully punched his shoulder.

"Dude, knock it off. You think that the mean girls are gonna leave me alone just like that? The only way I guess is to stop being famous in school" Shadow said.

"Dude, is not about you being famous. The girls just like your muscular body" I corrected him.

"I gotta gain a few pounds or something or wear a sweater" Shadow sighs.

"It's not that, just ignore them" I said, "And remember, Nebula loves you not just because you have a sexy muscular body. She loves your personality and for who you are"

"I know but those mean girls want her away from me. They have to understand that in their thick skulls" Shadow said.

"Sooner or later you'll find a way to reason with them" I said and left the Boys' locker room to get to the cafeteria.

When I got there, I saw it was soup, I bet its fish soup today. I took my bowl and spoon to get my bowl filled by the school chef. Then I took some bread and drink on the tray.

"Why can't you admit that you lost against me in basketball?" Rouge talking to Knuckles. This is gonna be good. Knuckles will always blush hard and go into a hot-head.

"Because I didn't lose!" Knuckles said.

"Guess you did your best to stand against me. Remember I'm a good acrobat" Rouge said, playing a little with his dreadlocks.

"Hmph! You're batty!" Knuckles scoffed.

"Uh, I'm not a bat, Knuckie" Rouge glared.

"I know because you have that batman symbol tattoo on your upper arm" Knuckles said.

"Oh, hehehe. That. But in that case I'm Batgirl" Rouge said.

"Whatever" Knuckles kept the same grumpy expression.

"You're so cute when you get grumpy. Anyways, see you around handsome" she winks at him.

I snickered at this and went to the table where Amy is sitting, "Hi Ames" I said and sat down on the chair near the table.

"Hi Sonikku. It was fun playing today with you and the others" she said.

"Yeah it was. You were good too" I replied and take a sip from the spoon.

"Sonic. What do you think the right girl should be like?" Amy then asked.

"Well she should be kind, caring, supportive and goodhearted" I said.

"And that she won't try to use you for fame or try to cheat?" she said.

"Yes. Just for who I am. Love comes from the heart" I said, knowing how real love is actually. Sierra had no love in her heart.

(Amy's POV)

I was heading home after school and I got to ask my parents if it's okay that I can go over to Sonic's house ordering pizza. I know it has to have cheese on it. I went to the kitchen where mom and dad were having tea.

"Oh hello there Amy" Mother said to me.

"Hi mom. Hi dad. I have a question. Can I go over to Sonic's house to have pizza with him?" I asked them.

"Yeah sure. And by the way are you two dating or what?" Mother asked me.

"No, just still friends" I blushed.

"Amy. You don't need to be shy for a boy. Describe how he is" Mother asked.

"Well he's kind, pure hearted but mostly lonely" I said, "Anyways, I'll see you later"

"Have fun Amy" My dad said.

Soon I arrived at Sonic's house, knocking on the door and I waited patiently for answer. Then the door opens and there stood Sonic. And of course, the Chihuahua fairy dog Chip.

"Hey, Ames. Come on in. The sun is almost setting down soon" Sonic said.

"Okay. Hi Chip" I petted Chip and he smiled cutely at me.

"Thanks" he nuzzled on my hand and I got inside.

"Alright shall we order now?" Aleena asked us near the phone.

"Heck yes. I'm gonna have pepperoni on mine" Manic said.

"Cheese pizza for me and Amy. Uhh...excuse me for a sec" Sonic groaned and rushed downstairs since the sun has gone down. I heard him howl downstairs and he comes back up.

"Sorry about that" he chuckled nervously.

"It's okay. Now where was I? Oh, I'll just have a small mushroom pizza" Aleena said and then turns to Sonia.

"I think I'll have a Hawaiian" Sonia said.

"Alright and a Hawaiian. Okay, we'll wait" Aleena then finished the ordering and hung up, "In about 10 minutes they are done" she said.

(Sonic's POV)

Right after 10 minutes has passed, I quickly hide in my room from the pizza man coming towards the door. I could hear my mother talking and she paid for the pizzas. As soon as the delivery man left, Aleena called for me that it's okay to come downstairs.

I could smell the pizza in the air. I was able to control my animal instincts like last time and I head downstairs to have pizza. We opened each box and I saw my own cheese pizza, my favorite, "Mmmmmmmmm" I sniffed it.

"Sonic, please behave like a human" Mom got disgusted by me smelling my pizza like a dog.

"Sorry" I chuckled.

"Smells delicious" Chip sniffed the pizza and took a bite. I was a bit worried that since he's a dog, I'm not sure if he'll have stomach problems. But he did told me that he's not actually mortal like us. So I guess it was okay for him. I gave him a slice and he ate it. I couldn't help but smile at how cute he looked. Amy was sitting next to me having her pizza. Sometimes I looked at her admiring her look. Man, why is my heart beating right now?

I never felt my heart beat like that when I dated Sierra last year. Probably because it wasn't 'Love at First Sight' or something. Perhaps I was an idiot to understand what real love is. But I wonder if Amy feels the same.

"Hey Sonic, can you hand me the Coca Cola?" Manic interrupted my thoughts.

"Yeah sure" I handed him his Coca Cola and he takes it.

"Amy. How was your day in the town you first lived in?" Sonia asked her.

"It was quite amazing. The new house was a lot better than my old one in Mercia" Amy said.

"Cool. Did you have any friends there?" I heard Sonia ask her again.

"Well not so many friends. But I got you all now" Amy said.

"That is very kind of you to say" Manic said.

"Thanks. Uh...curious question. Are you three like....triplets or something?" she asked me and my siblings.

"Uh yeah. But Sonic was born first of the siblings during birth" Aleena said.

"Wow. And who came last?" she asked.

"I did" Manic said. "So that makes me the little brother. But I don't mind that" he said.

"Oh okay. Well I better hope nobody confuses you with Scourge since he's also green haired" Amy joked.

"Yeah, I get that a lot from others in school" Manic chuckled, "But what I don't have is those two nasty clawed scars. Scourge has those on his chest"

"Yikes, how did he get that?" she asked.

"That we don't know. But my guess is maybe he got scratched by a wild bear in the forest" I said.

"Ouch. But he's lucky to survive" Amy cringed.

"Yeah" I nodded.
