Serendipity

Chapter 15: Equanimity

Mighty groaned and he dropped his hands coming to his side. "Man, you're no fun."

Sonic smirked, feigning a placid nature. His dull eyes were blocked by a confident smile and bright face. Mighty didn't see past his walls. Mighty placed his hand on Sonic's back. "Stalking Amy?"

Sonic's smirk faded and he rubbernecked Mighty. "Stalking?"

"I thought it was odd you were up here. Why are you by yourself though? Did something happen?" Mighty asked mockingly.

Sonic kept his cool and made no sort of reaction to the topic that Mighty found amusing. Sonic rolled his eyes and looked out the window eyeing her. They had barely made their way to the middle of the quad. Mighty's eyes caught something but it disappeared as fast as he caught it. "Amy?"

Sonic faced him. When Mighty didn't reply Sonic raised an eyebrow. "What about Amy?"

Mighty inspected his looks and turned down to Amy. "Oh, nothing. It's just you looked kinda serious when you were looking at her just now."

"Did I?"

"You're stalking her from up here when you're usually stalk her from behind then surprise her with a 'Hello Amy' or 'Morning' kinda thing." Mighty claimed not taking his eyes off Amy. Sonic felt droplets of sweat down his head. 'Stalk?'

"Stop using the word 'stalking'. You make me sound like a creep." Sonic said turning around and walking down the hall away from the window. Mighty followed with a chinky grin. "Something happened between you two."

"Are you wondering or you know?" Sonic asked rising his eyebrows.

"I know," Mighty bumped his shoulders with Sonic. Sonic rolled his eyes with a smile. "You poor curious soul. I'll leave whatever's running on your mind up to your imagination then." Sonic said turning around to head downstairs, but Mighty continued to follow chuckling.

"So something did happen?"

"Maybe," Sonic said under his breath, but Mighty didn't hear him. Mighty chuckled and they made a round turn to head to the next stairs down to the first floor. The sounds of the students on the hallways were now being heard as they approached the first floor. Once reaching the bottom floor he could hear girls whispering to each other, aweing at him. Sonic closed his eyes ignoring them and the girls stared shocked that he didn't greet them like he'd always have. Mighty looked at them then at him.

"You know, Amy believes you're a good guy." He began softly and Sonic's eyes split open. "And I feel she respects you a lot."

Sonic glared at him not wanting to hear anymore, but Mighty ignored his look continuing. "And I know you feel the same way about her too. Now, I don't know what exactly happened, but I feel she needs you. If you start ignoring her she'll think you hate her and I know you don't want that. Stop playing around with her and get to know her already."

"Mighty!" Sonic growled under his breath and Mighty's eyes shimmered. He was touching something Sonic was reacting impulsively to. Mighty shrugged and grinned turning a different direction than Sonic. "Just talk to her." He said before waving and walking off his side. Sonic sneered something to the side and held his head feeling dizzy. Talk to her, he said. So much for Mighty not being able to read past him, Sonic was unable to keep his emotions in control and therefore it was written all over his face. He turned to find Mighty, but the sight of him disappeared. Sonic rolled his eyes and walked away.

.:xXx:.

Cream and Amy approached the stairs that head up to her first period class. Honey could not accompany Amy this morning due to helping out a friend and a teacher just before the bell rang and so she was going to walk to her classroom on her own, which was good practice for Amy anyway.
