Café Love

Chapter 1

Rain heavily poured down from the skies of Station Square as many people on the ground ran around for shelter. Walking through the rain holding her arms close together, was a pink hedgehog named Amy Rose. She sighed sadly and mentally scolded herself for not bringing a coat along with her, as she knew this rain was coming, she just thought she'd get home on time, but clearly that didn't happen.

Amy lifted her head as some light had reached her vision and she spotted the familiar sign of the city's most popular café. She sighed in relief when she entered through the door that chimed with the sound of a bell. She spotted her usual seat that her and her friends normally sit at, was free and she sat down. The table was close to a large stage and near a fire place and Amy was grateful that it was on so she was soon dry and warm.

A waitress had come round and asked if she would like anything and Amy had ordered a hot chocolate, as she drank a bright light was shone on the stage and many people who were mainly girls had crowded round on the dance floor waiting for whatever was coming on. Some of them screaming with excitement. Amy had no idea who was playing that night, but she wasn't all that interested.

Suddenly a microphone was set up and a voice sounded through it grabbing a little of Amy's attention but she still stared at her cup, "is this thing on? Testing 123, yes its working thanks for the set up Ray!"

Amy briefly looked up at the stage and saw an older looking hedgehog taping on the microphone. "Okay, thanks for your patients folks, we've finally got things set up here and running properly, so without further ado I'm pleased to introduce the newest up and coming pop star to the Twilight café...Zach the hedgehog!" He yelled as many females screamed the pop stars name and cheered.

The older hedgehog stepped aside as a really handsome younger male hedgehog who wore a set of sunglasses on his head and a leather jacket, white gloves, blue trainers and an earring on his left ear stepped up to the microphone, the hedgehog was red and had bright crystal blue eyes. Around his shoulders he had a guitar that was all black but had a lighten bolt on the front.

"Zach, we love you!" Some of the girls called.

The hedgehog on stage grinned at them and started to play his guitar. He then sang one of his most popular songs which the fans went crazy over. The pop star looked over the crowd but he almost stopped singing, when his eyes fell on a pink hedgehog who was listening but not watching, she seemed more interested in her cup.

He felt a nudge on his side and frowned when his band member who played the bass snapped him out of his stupor. He realised that he nearly missed some of his words, he shook his head and carried on singing and he couldn't wait until the show was over.

It was almost closing time in the café when the concert was over but Zach was thankful that the pink hedgehog was still there, but she was about to leave. He ran over to the table as soon as she had left money on the table and stood up, "h-hey wait!" He called.

Amy looked back as she had placed the money on the table, her eyes went wide when she realised that it was the pop star who talking to her.

"H-hey uh, I um, noticed ya sitting there, and not up dancing like most of the other girls and I wondered if you were okay?" He asked feeling himself blush.

Amy raised her eyes, "uh, yeah I'm okay, thanks for asking and I just didn't feel like dancing."

Zach nodded in understanding and started rubbing the back of his head, "cool, so uh my names Zach in case you don't already know, might I know what your name is?"

Amy's mouth fell open slightly, "um, it's Amy Rose."

Zach smiled with a nod "Amy Rose, you suit that name."

Amy blushed slightly, "uh, thanks, I'm really sorry but I have to get going, it was nice meeting you!" Amy called as she saw that the rain was off and it was now starting to get dark.

Zach felt slightly disappointed when she started to leave but he quickly grabbed her hand "please wait!"

Amy eyes went wide again when she felt her hands being pulled back, Zach was now blushing full force "um, sorry but I'd really like to get to know you, could I see you again?"

Amy was about to say no when a familar voice to her answered for her, "Ah, oh my gosh I can't believe it, Zach, oh of course you can see Amy again, I'll even give you her number!" It Rouge the bat. Amy gasped in fright when the bat had screamed.

Zach grinned when he was handed a piece of paper with a phone number on it, Amy growled "Rouge you can't just give away my number!"

Rouge pulled Amy away from the pop star "Amy, hon this could be your chance if you date this guy big blue might get jealous," Rouge whispered.

Amy sighed "I don't think that'll work, Rouge."

Rouge chuckled "oh it will, Sonic likes you I know it. He's just shy."

Amy grumbled, "if he liked me then he wouldn't run away from me."

Rouge sighed "I take it that's why your in the cafe huh?"

Amy nodded, Zach made a coughing sound to get the girls attention, "um, so would it be okay if I contacted you Amy? Don't wanna do it without asking since your friend here gave me your number."

Rouge nudge Amy in the side, "go on," she whispered.

Amy sighed "um sure it's okay."

Zach grinned "great ya might hear from me in a couple of days since I got time off." He was then called over by his manager and he said goodbye to the girls.
