Omg I love the idea of this story so I'm making another chapter kind of early. Umm enjoy this second chapter!
"And this is my room. Right next to yours and on the opposite is Shadows and Sonic is right across from you. Now, I'm going to go freshen up for dinner. I hope this house tour was helpful. Feel free to ask me or my brothers for anything. See you later Amelia." Silver said, as he walked to his room.
"Amy." She remarked, looking at him.
"Excuse me?" Silver asked, looking back at her.
"Amy. Call me Amy." She smiled.
Silver smiled back. "Alright Amy. See you later."
Amy lightly chuckled and walked to her room, closing the door behind her. When she faced her room, she nearly screamed at the sight of Sonic sitting on her bed with his arms crossed. He quickly dashed towards her and covered her mouth.
"Shhh it's just me." Sonic spoke, taking his hand away from her mouth.
"Why are you in my room?!" She asked, somewhat annoyed.
"You could have told me you were going to be my new foster sister. I could have introduced you to the city a bit more." He sighed as he sat on a chair.
Amy crossed her arms. "Well, why would I tell some stranger something personal?"
"I'm not stranger anymore. I'm your brother." Sonic replied.
"Foster brother. Just saying brother makes me sound related to you." Amy corrected.
"Fine whatever. Anyway, so what's this deal about leaving after a week?" Sonic asked.
Amy's eyes widened. She looked down. "H-How do you know about that?"
"I overheard the conversation you had with our mom." He responded.
Amy felt goosebumps when he said 'our mother' but she had to get used to it. Even if it was going to be for a week. But maybe it could be longer. It all depends if she has a reason to stay.
"You had no right to hear about that information." Amy remarked, frowning.
"We were going to find out eventually. I wasn't sure if it was after you left or before you left. I won't tell Silver and Shadow but at least I know." He said, standing up.
"Okay well it was nice talking to you but I need some alone time." Amy said, opening the door for Sonic.
"Well, dinner is about to start in eaxctl-"
"Everybody dinner is ready!" Aleena's voice echoed through the hall.
"Now." Sonic chuckled.
Amy rolled her eyes and walked away. Sonic followed after her along with Shadow and Silver who came out of their rooms. The 3 rushed down to the dining room with everyone sitting in what seemed to be their own seat. Amy looked at the table and noticed there was only one chair left. It was in between Shadow and Silver.
Amy slowly made her way to her seat and looked down. This wasn't new to her. But the fact that she was in between two boys was new. She didn't know what to say or do.
"So, Amy…how is your stay here so far? I hope my boys have welcomed you to your new home." Aleena smiled, taking a bite at the pasta she made.
"I'm getting settled. But I'm really enjoying my stay here. Silver has been extremely helpful." Amy smiled at Silver. He smiled back.
Sonic stayed quiet. Watching Silver and Amy getting along made him feel a small pang of jealousy. But he refused to show it. Instead, he quietly ate his dinner without saying a word. Shadow started to converse with Amy and Silver which surprised Aleena, Silver and even Sonic. Shadow rarely talked at the table and the fact that he was being talkative was a surprise.
"Yeah I have a girlfriend. Her name is Maria." Shadow smirked.
"How about you Silver?" Amy asked.
"Well, not exactly. We're close but I'm trying to find the right moment." Silver responded.
"What's her name?"
"Blaze. She's my best friend." Silver smiled.
"Aww."
"Sonic here has never had a girlfriend." Shadow chuckled.
"Bro that's not cool." Sonic glared.
"I mean, you have a ton of girls hitting on you at school and you reject them all. I think it's about time to settle down a bit." Silver joined in.
"Well, I'm just waiting for the right girl. There's nothing wrong with that." Sonic defended.
"That's right." Amy accidentally said. She face palmed and looked down. She began to mentally curse and she felt pairs of eyes looking at her.
"Speaking of school…have you decided to enroll? School has just started so it's not too late." Aleena mentioned.
"Yeah! You can hang out with us. We're pretty popular." Silver chuckled.
"All the girls would envy you." Shadow remarked.
"I-I don't know…I'll think about it." Amy muttered, looking at Sonic and Aleena who slowly nodded. Silver and Shadow both looked at each other confused but shrugged it off. An hour later everyone had finished dinner and took off to their rooms.
Amy was already dressed into her PJ's but needed to brush her teeth and wash her face. She made her way to the bathroom and closed the door behind her. When she faced the bathroom, she nearly screamed when she saw Sonic coming out of the shower. She couldn't move.
Sonic came out of the shower and looked at Amy. He shrieked and quickly placed a towel around him. He frowned at Amy who was still shocked to move or react.
"Amy what the hell are you doing here?" He asked, walking up to her.
"N-No! Don't get close!" She stuttered.
Sonic froze. He looked at Amy who was blushing furiously. He smirked and leaned against the wall. "You like what you see?" He joked.
"N-No…can I just please brush my teeth…" Amy mumbled.
Sonic laughed and nodded. He walked to the door and exited. Amy quickly locked the door and sighed. She slid down behind the door. She's never felt more embarrassed in her entire life. She witnessed a guy in the shower. He was flirting with her. Her cheeks were warm.
"I don't think I can even last a week here…" She whispered, a small smile forming on her lips.
Amy was fast asleep. Her bed was cloud 9. She was in her dream world and she never wanted to wake up. Unfortunately for her, she was awoken by Aleena who knocked on her door. Amy groaned and got out of bed. She rubbed her eyes and slowly opened the door.
"Oh! I didn't know you were still asleep. It's almost noon and you missed breakfast." Aleena said.
"Oh my gosh I didn't think I slept through breakfast. I am so sorry. I was just very tired yesterday and this bed is just amazing. Let me change and I'll meet you downstairs?" Amy suggested.
"That would be great." Aleena nodded, walking away.
Amy closed her door and ran to her closet. It was still empty but that might change soon. She picked out white knee length shorts with a yellow blouse and her black strapped sandals. She tied her quills in a high, messy ponytail with a yellow headband over her quills. She ran to the bathroom to brush her teeth and freshen up her face. After she was done, she walked downstairs and greeted Aleena who was sitting on the couch with her purse on her shoulder.
"Oh, are you going somewhere?" Amy asked.
"Not me. We." She smiled as she pointed at her 3 sons sitting on a couch together. Amy turned to look at them and they all had bored expressions on their faces. She didn't understand what was going on. She was about to ask when Silver beat her to it.
"Apparently mom wants us to bond through shopping. She figured you needed a new wardrobe." Silver shrugged.
Amy gasped and faced Aleena. "N-No. You don't have to do this. I was planning on getting a job and pay for my stuff. I feel bad."
"No need dear! I haven't shopped with my boys in so long and to shop with my daughter will be exciting for me! Don't worry. Let's go! I can't wait!" Aleena excitedly spoke, walking out the door. Sonic, Silver, and Shadow all looked at Amy who nervously chuckled.
"This should be interesting." Silver exclaimed, walking out the door.
"I don't like shopping." Shadow muttered.
"What are we waiting for? Let's go!" Sonic remarked, walking out with Amy.
"So what do you want to buy first?" Aleena asked, looking at every store.
"Um…well anywhere is fine. No expensive stores though." Amy spoke, rubbing her arm.
"But they have the best clothes. Oh Amy don't worry. Trust me alright?"
Amy knew there was no way she was going to change her mind. She nodded and walked away with Aleena leaving the 3 boys alone.
"Poor Amy." Silver chuckled.
"Amy? Wasn't her name Amelia?" Shadow asked.
"Amy for short. She likes to be called Amy."
"So what should we do? We haven't been here in a while." Sonic spoke, placing his arms around Silver and Shadow. They all sighed.
"Let's buy something for Amy. From us." Silver suggested.
"You're very fond of her huh?" Shadow asked, smirking.
"No! I mean, I'm excited we have a sister now. I feel as if we need to be the best brothers she's ever had. She's younger than us. Don't you feel some sort of job to protect her?" Silver asked, looking at Shadow and Sonic.
"Well, I guess so. When you put it that way." Shadow shrugged.
"Yeah, I agree. Let's go find something for her." Sonic smiled, walking away.
"Look at this shirt." Amy smiled, placing it over her.
"Oh I love it. You look beautiful in just about anything." Aleena complimented, making Amy blush.
It's been an hour since Amy and Aleena have been shopping for clothes. Amy managed to find a good bunch of clothes that would last her for a few months but she was still unsure if she was going to stay or not. It's been 2 days already. 5 more left before she decides whether she goes or not.
But what worried her was that she still hasn't found a reason to stay.
Aleena noticed Amy looking a little off. She walked up to her and placed a hand on her shoulder. Amy looked up and formed a small smile. Aleena smiled back. Her smile was so heartwarming and sincere. She was a perfect mother. Her sons must be proud to be able to call her their mother.
"Is there something going on in that pretty little head of yours?" Aleena asked.
"I still haven't found a reason to stay. I'm starting to like it here but if I can't find a reason to stay…I leave." Amy sadly replied.
"Well, we still have 5 days. I'm sure you'll find your reason. It might be right in front of you and you wouldn't even know until fate decides when the moment is right. It's about time you found your purpose in this world. Whether it's to make someone happy or make a difference in this world. Just give it time." Aleena advised.
"Thank you…that means a lot. I'll keep that in mind." Amy replied, hugging her.
"Are we ruining your guys' moment?" Silver asked.
Amy and Aleena broke away and looked at Silver who was full with bags. Aleena laughed and helped him with the bags. Shadow and Sonic came in with a few other bags.
"What's all this?" Aleena asked.
"Well, we might have gotten a bit carried away with our shopping. Last time we were here there wasn't anything good but everything is upgraded and we found a bunch of stuff." Sonic explained, nervously chuckling.
"Oh, here Amy. We all got you something. We hope you like it." Silver said, handing Amy a small bag.
"Oh…you didn't have to get me anything." Amy looked at Silver and then at Shadow and Sonic.
"We wanted to. A little something from your brothers." Shadow smiled. He then quickly frowned.
Amy took out a small diary. It was a pink journal with the letter A. The letter A was blank which Amy assumed was a spot for a picture. A small lock and key were attached to the journal along with a fancy looking pen that had feathers attached to the top.
Amy began to tear up. She was trying her best to fight the tears but she couldn't. Soon tears began falling and she quickly rubbed her eyes. She then hugged the trio, thanking them. She placed her gift back inside the bag and continued wiping her eyes.
"This is the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me. I will forever remember this. Thank you so much." Amy thanked.
Aleena began to tear up. "This moment is too beautiful to miss. Let me take a picture. Huddle up my babies."
Sonic, Silver, and Shadow all stood next to each other while Amy walked in the middle. The 3 then surrounded Amy all looking at her with grins while Amy smiled at the camera. Soon, Aleena decided it was time to go home. She went to the cashier to pay and they all walked out the store.
"I've been smiling too much today." Shadow muttered.
"But it feels good right?" Silver teased.
"No, my face hurts." Shadow rolled his eyes.
"Well, you're going to be smiling a lot more now." Sonic exclaimed, looking at Amy.
Amy smiled, nodding in agreement.
A/N: Whew! Another chapter done. I was planning not to do the shopping scene until the next chapter but the number of words would have been short. Since the first chapter ranged about 2000 words, this one would have had about 1500 and I wanted to make it 2000 at least. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this chapter! And thank you for the reviews so far. I'm happy to know a few are liking this story so far. I'll still update H.S Love when I can soon. Baiiii.
