The thorn that protects the rose

Chapter 12

Amy POV
As I put on my black dress on I couldn't keep the kiss out of my head.it was replaying non stop in my head but I didn't mind it. I did my makeup and hair when my phone rang.
"Hey Ames"
"Hey sonic"
"You are still going to the party right?"
"Yeah I'm just now getting ready "
"Awesome ! Oh and can you pick up some pizza and alcohol?"
"I'll pick up pizza but not alcohol "
"Please Ames ! "
"Sorry sonic"
"Can you get shadow to do it then !"
"I'll ask "
"Thanks so much Amy your a life saver "
"No problem "
"See you if a few"
"Okay bye"
"Bye"
I then called shadow
"Hey Rose "
"Can you pick up some alcohol for the party?"
"Yeah I guess why?"
" sonic called me, he wanted me to buy it and I don't want to "
"Oh alright , what time are you going over ?"
"Around 8 just so I can talk to everyone before they get drunk"
"Alright talk to you then "
"Bye shad "
"Bye Rose~"
I was about to say something else but he hung up the phone and I sighed and put my phone down. I wanted to see him now,not later . I finished getting ready and I had some extra time so I called rouge
"Hey rouge "
"Hey what's up Amy "
"You are still coming right ?"
"Yeah of course I wouldn't miss drunk shadow for the world !" She laughed
"What does he do when he gets drunk anyway ?"
" well he will do anything really , he isn't worried about what others think about him so he usually isn't mean at all and he gets really talkative, and flirty but I've never seen him take a girl home "
"I've seen sonic take way too many girls home with him ..."
" yup that's who he meet Sally "
"Really ? "
" yeah and then they actually started dating but I think she dumped him for so body else"
" I had no idea "
" I just hope sonic doesn't make shadow mad"
" yeah let's hope "
" shadow doesn't hold back when he is drunk though . But I'm sure it will be fine "
"So how are you and knuckles doing?"
"Amazing, things are getting kinda serious between us "
"That's exciting "
" not as exciting as you and shadows kiss .... I gotta go my baby is calling me. See you at the party !"
"Bye"
I hung up the phone and grabbed my keys and walked out of the house to go pick up the pizzas

* at the party *

I walk in the house and look around. Sonic and silver were sitting on the floor trying to get the speakers to work.
" hey Amy ! " silver yelled as he jumped up to hug me
"Hey " I said as I put the pizza on the table
"Thanks again Amy"
"No problem shadow is bringing the rest"
Rouge, knuckles and blaze walk out to the living room
"Finally your here " blaze said with a smile
" where is your boyfriend ?" Rouge asked
"Who shadow ...? Oh well he will be here soon " I had never even thought about it but me and him Aren't even dating or at lest it isn't official yet. The door opens and shadow walks in holding a few bags
"Here " he said as he put them up on the table
" thanks shadow !" Sonic yelled
"Don't talk to me " he hissed
"Oh come on shadow lets up our hatred for each other aside for tonight"
" we will see how I feel when I'm drunk"he turned to me and held out his hand
And I took it and he pulled me closer and whispered in my ear
"Missed you Rose "
I smiled and hugged him
"Secretes don't make friends ! "Silver yelled
" I got it to work guys !" Silver yelled as he turned on the music
"Knuckles help me move the furniture " sonic asked
"Why ?" Knuckles said
"For a dance floor duh " silver yelled
They both grabbed the furniture and moved it into a different room and walked back out sonic dimmed the lights and turned up the music.
"Let's party !" He yelled as he dug in the bag that shadow brought
"Wow you got the good stuff !" He said looking at shadow
I walked over to rouge and blaze and we started talking to each other. I guess we were talking for a long time because by the time we turned around all the boys were cheering each other on while they were doing shots. We walked over to them and they were all obviously drunk.
"Hey boys " rouge called out
" hey rouge you should try this ! It's crazy ! " sonic yelled while laughing
"Try what ?"
" well shadow got this and it's the best stuff I've ever tasted !"
"Shadow they are going to be completely waisted !" Rouge said looking at shadow
" I can handle it !!" Knuckles yelled
"Same here I can handle it !" Silver called out
" oh I know " shadow said with a smirk
Sonic held out a glass to rouge and rouge took it and drank it.
" alright that's all I'm having " she said
"Suuuuuuuurrrrrrr" shadow said as he took another drink
"Okay well you boys have fun , us girls will be over here " we all turned away and walked over to the other side of the room and started talking again. Some time passed and the room erupted into laughter. We turn to see all the boys laughing like crazy including shadow.
"That's our cue " blaze said
" yay fun shadow is finally here !" Rouge yelled as shadow turned away
"YAY" he yelled back as he stood up
Sonic tried to stand but fell over causing all the guys to laugh again
"I fucking hate you man .... But you are alright " shadow said as he held out his hand to sonic.sonic grabbed it and stood up
"And I actually don't hate you ! I'm just jealous of how cool you are " sonic said as he laughed
"That's alright man" shadow said as he patted sonic shoulder
"I am the ultimate life form after all" he added
"It's actually really cool that you came from a spaceship, even though Maria died "knuckles said
"What can I say life is a bitch " shadow laughed
I was actually really surprised that he didn't yell at knuckles for talking about Maria.
But I lost my train of thought when a new song came on.
"I like this song" silver said he got up and started dancing with sonic.i was laughing but then shadow grabbed my hand and pulled me to the middle of the room.
"Black looks good on you ~" he said as he pulled me close
"Thanks shadow "
"Come on show me your moves" he said and before I knew it I was grinding on him. The whole world disappeared and I didn't care who was watching. It was actually kind of fun. But when the song changed I stopped and he grabbed me and gave me a quick kiss on the forehead
"Thanks babe" he said as he walked back over to the boys. I fallowed him, the girls where over there anyway. I looked at rouge who now had a black bruise on her neck. I nudged shadow and whispered in his ear
"What's that out rouges neck ?"
"Oh that !?" He yelled as he pointed
"Shh shadow "
"Oh no see she doesn't care that's rouge she is chill "he said
"It's embarrassing "
"Nah no it's not, hey rouge who gave you that hickey !? "
My face got so red, I knew what a hickey was but I have never seen/noticed one before.
"Knuckles duh" rouge replied
"Ahhhh nice " shadow said looking over at knuckles then back at me
"Hey guy you wanna take more shots " silver asked
"Hell yeah " shadow said as he walked over to the table
I looked at rouge and smiled and she walked over to me. I see that you are getting used to the improved shadow"
"It's kinda weird"
"Oh you have seen nothing " rouge said as we looked back over to see shadow chugging the whole bottle with the boys cheering
"Oh god ..." I said
"Go shadow. !!" Rouge yelled joining sonic,silver and knuckles.shadow finished the bottle and placed it on the table.
"Broooooo " knuckles said
They all laughed and shadow looked back over at me
"Oh sorry di-did you want some?!" He chuckled
" what If I did ?" I teased as I turned around back to rouge
" oh Amy "rouge said
"What ?" I asked rouge soon after  I felt a tap on my shoulder and I turned around to see shadow
"I'm sure you can still taste it " he said as he grabbed me and pulled me close and kissed me
"Get it shadow !" Knuckles yelled
Shadow licked my lips wanting in, but I pulled away.
"Ooooo Amy !" Rouge yelled I looked at her then back at shadow. He moved my hair from my face then winked at me before returning to the other guys.
"What just happened?" I said turning to rouge
"Don't worry about it " rouge said
" hey Rose Co-come sit by me " shadow yelled
"I'll be back " I said to rouge as I walked over to shadow, he smiled at me and I realized that he has a really nice smile. I sat down by him in a chair.
" wwwwwwhat up " he said looking at me
"Uh nothing just watching you guys being drunk " I said with a laugh
"Well that sound-ds entertaining "he said with a chuckle
" yup it sure is " I said
" you look really nnnice tonight " he said getting closer
"Thanks shad "
" just to let you know I have a huggge crush on yo-you , but I'm to much of a pussy to tell you"
"Really " I said relieved
" oh yeah ! But I just figured that you di-didnt like me back "
" well you thought wrong " I replied
" really ?? Wow ...I gotta tell shadow .."   He said as I laughed
" hey you wanna get out of here and maybe take a walk ?"
" yeah sure " I said standing up
"HEY GUYS IM GONNA GO " he yelled
"N-NO STAYYYYY " sonic yelled back
"Sorry man can't maybe next time " shadow yelled
" awe " silver said as he smacked his head on the table
Shadow grabbed my hand and we walked out .
