"Bye Sal, see ya tomorrow", I told my girlfriend leaving her off at her house. She pecked my lips and pulled back to look at me. I could only gaze at her sweet face. I loved how the way part of her brunette hair in the front of her forehead just hanged there close to her sparkling blue eyes.
"Bye Sonic, I'll call you tomorrow then", she said walking back into her house. I waved goodbye and ran off towards my house.
Once I got home, I notice that everyone was going to the dinning room. Oh! I almost forgot to mention. Tails, Rouge, Knuckles, Cream, Amy and me all live together. Rouge and Knuckles are finally going out. As for Cream and Tails, they are both very busy with high school. Back to what was happening at the house, I walked into the dinning room and leaned against the dinning room entrance. The table was getting set up by Amy and Cream with the dinner. Amy still had that childish crush on me. I had told her countless times that we were friends, but she believed that we could become more than that. I honestly didn't think of her 'that way' , only as a close true friend. Sure she was cute, fun and great to be with, but she's really not my type. So I still continue on with my life going out with other girls. Right now the only one that I had the longest relationship was Sally Acorn.
There are certain people you just keep coming back to
She is right in front of you
You begin to wonder could you find a better one
Compared to her now she's in question
"Hey are you going to eat dinner with us?", Tails asked me. He passed me with Rouge and Knuckles trailing behind him.
"Nah, Sally and I went to a restaurant for dinner", I answered. As I was turning around to head to my room, I caught a glimpse of Amy. She had a dish on her hand and she was looking at me with a miserable look on her face. I knew that I had hurt her feelings once again by saying that I went out with my girlfriend. I dashed off into my room, closed the door and laid down on top of my bed. My mind began to replay the sadden expression that Amy had on her face. I had to admit, I felt guilty by making her sad. But she has got to learn that it could never happen, we could only be friends and that's it PERIOD!
And all at once the crowd begins to sing
Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same
Every time, when I would go out for a date with Sally, Amy would seem depressed. Tails told me that when I was on my date. She would go into her room and cry, no wonder I would hear someone sobbing through the walls. And when I would bring Sally inside the house, Amy would go outside for a walk or went shopping, Cream or Rouge would usually go with her. But, she has to learn one way or the other.
Maybe you want her maybe you need her
Maybe you started to compare to someone not there
My past girlfriends were Mina, Blaze, Daisy, Victoria, Susan, Fiona. But, they all were kinda the same, always looking for something that I could buy them or would act cuddly whenever the paparazzi would come up to us and take pictures. Sally, on the other hand, was far much different than all of them. Besides being a princess, she was a great person to have a conversation with or to hang out. When the paparazzi found out we were going out, the news was spread like wildfire. Amy only stood by the sideline and watched how I moved on in life.
Looking for the right one you line up the world to find
Where no questions cross your mind
But she won't keep on waiting for you without a doubt
Much longer for you to sort it out
As time went on, everyone in the house started to tell me that they were concerned about Amy because she was acting like a zombie. Cream even had a serious conversation with me. But, all I could reply was: "Cream, she HAS GOT to get over that SILLY FANATIC CRUSH! There can't be and won't be anything between us. We COULD only be friends". After that I stormed out of the living room and went to call Sally to see if she wanted to go out on another date. She said yes.
And all at once the crowd begins to sing
Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same
Little, by little she subsided the chasing. Until the day came when she no longer looked around for me out on the streets to ask if I wanted to hang out with her. (She stopped asking me for a date ever since I started dating) Of course I felt terrible on how I would treat her. But I was too elated to notice it because I was now free from her. I then knew that she had finally understood.
Maybe you want her maybe you need her
Maybe you started to compare to someone not there
Maybe you want it maybe you need it,
Maybe it's all you're running from,
Perfection will not come
I still remember the day when Tails' told me that Shadow was moving into our house. I was quite glad that Shadow was going to live with us, even though we would often fight. Still it was fun to argue with that faker.
And all at once the crowd begins to sing
Sometimes
We'd never know what's wrong without the pain
Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same
Shadow finally moved in and got adjusted to the house and everyone else. Amy and him became really close. Knuckles told me that ever since Shadow moved in. Amy has gotten back into her old cheerful self. I was proud that Shadow returned the old Amy back, I kinda missed her.
Maybe you want her maybe you need her
Maybe you've started to compare to someone not there
Maybe you want it maybe you need it
Maybe it's all you're running from
Perfection will not come
After a few weeks, I began to have this weird feeling whenever I would see them together. Sally said I wasn't the same any more. That I became more grumpy and anger all the time. I didn't hang out with her as much as we used to, it was more of a 'once a week' date. Till the day came when it became too unbearable, we didn't even communicated for once in two months. So she decided that it would be better to break up with me and go through our own separate ways.
Right now, I'm in the park sitting alone on the grass near the lake. Across from the lake and me, sitting on the bench, is Shadow and Amy enjoying their date. Now they are giggling and snuggling with each other.
Sigh. I had always been running away from the true emotions that I have for her, frightened to acknowledge them myself . I had ignored them for far too long. It was then that I noticed that it was really me who didn't understand. I guess that saying is true after all, 'You don't know what you have until it's gone'.
Maybe you want her maybe you need her
Maybe you had her maybe you lost her to another
To another

Serene: "Chao, Chao". Translation: "I don't think the story is quite done yet".
Omochao & Steph shouts out in shock : "WHAT!?"
