Sonic Series Fan Fiction ❯ Stargazer ❯ Slow For Once ( Chapter 2 )

I groaned, flopping backwards onto my bed.

Another day another fight with Sal.

I can't even remember what started it today - something stupid, I'm sure.

I sigh and sit up, deciding that my ceiling is no more interesting now than it was this morning.

Getting out of my bed, I make my way to my window and climb out of it, not really in the mood for talking to anyone. Creeping into the woods just behind my hut, I glance about to make sure no one has spotted me before revving my legs and bolting out of there.

Running just a few paces below the sound barrier, I suddenly find myself standing at the edge of the forest overlooking the vile city of Robotropolis. I fold my arms across my chest and frown.

I don't know why, but I always find myself coming to this very same spot time after time just to think.

Especially about one being.

I close my eyes tightly to try and rid myself of the image that pops into my head at the thought of him, but I can't stop it.

Why?

Why of all things?

Why did I fall in love with him?

Why, when I used to hate him?

Opening my eyes, I look over the dead city, but receive no answer.

I never do.

Suddenly, I feel as though I'm being watched. I whirl around, my eyes narrowed and focusing on the top-most branches of a tall oak. For a moment I swore I could see… something but it vanished before I could get and idea as to what it was.

For a fleeting moment, my heart screamed a name at me, but I refused to listen to it.

There was no way he'd be there.

I close my eyes and shake away a fantasy just beginning to form at the corners of my mind.

As I turn to walk back to my hut deep in the forest, I think about the one causing me this anguish.

I love you, I do.

I love you so very much…

Metal Sonic…

Finally! It's done! Now you can all stop (censored) at me! ><

MS: *muttering* Took ya long enough…

Angel: ;-: *glomps him* you no likey me?

MS: No.

Angel: *whine; glomp harder*

Sonic: *storms in room; snatches Metal Sonic away; sticks tongue out at Angel; storms out*

Angel: >< *summons Amy's Pico Pico Hammer out of nowhere; goes after Sonic*

Tails: … I hate Angel. Anyway, I guess I'll have to do the disclaimer since Angel's out so: Angel does not own Sonic the Hedgehog or any of it's characters.
