The Ultimate Shadamy fanfic 3

Chapter 3.
Slowly Amy was walking down the street looking straight in front of her. That blank expression remained on her face. Amy approached her house the second time this day. The first time she dropped by to leave the purchases. This time she had no intention at all. This was the only place she could call home, though it was just an empty house.
She didn’t want to see her friends now. As for parents…
They died in a battle with Robotnik long time ago. The neighborhood brought her up. But she never had someone like mother or father, someone she could tell everything. Maybe only Vanilla, Creams’ mom, was close to her. But that time she must have been tired after a long working day and Amy didn’t want to bother her.
At last she was near the front door pulling out her key.
Suddenly she heard a motor roar behind her. She quickly turned around.
It was Shadow on his Harley Davidson.
“You just won't give up, will you?” Amy shouted.
“Yep. I don't give up that easily" Shadow grinned “Ready for a ride?”
“No, I want to be on my own.”
“And what are you gonna do? Cry over the spilled milk?”
Amy bit her lips.
“Come on, Ames! What are you going to loose?” Shadow winked at her and clapped the back of the bikes’ seat.
Amy hesitated. Some part of her wanted to go and the other still whispered that it is wrong. Is Shadow any better? He wasn't in sight for years, and now...
“Sonic doesn’t love me. He never did. Why then do I have to wait for him?” She said to herself and that second part shut up.
She thought "Shadow doesn't seem dangerous now. I heard he saves people on daily basis. And the stuff he said..."
She took several steps to the bike and then stopped again.
“Why is he here? Could it be that he loves me? Or he just wants to play with me to annoy Sonic or something?” – All those thoughts quickly slipped through Amy’s mind.
“Shadow what do you want from me?” she asked rigidly.
“From you? Nothing. ” Shadow smiled to her as innocently as he could  “I just wanted to show you one place that’s all.”
“And that was the only reason you made me break up with Sonic?!” Amy said angrily.
“A little correction!” Shadow dumped her ardor “Not to break up with him, but to realize that there was nothing to break!”
“And how come you know so much about our relationship with Sonic?! You’ve never been around!”
“I asked Rouge. She’s seen a lot of your interaction with him.” Shadow rolled his eyes.“ She can tell.”
“That simple?” Amy looked at him surprised.
“And what did you expect? Me spying on you or something?” he grinned “I got interested in you after that little adventure of ours, so I asked her about my chances.”
“And what are they?” Amy asked interestedly.
“They exist. That’s all I needed to know.” Shadow gave her a rather playful sight.
Amy blushed a bit and replied:
“Ok. Where are we going?”
“Oh, trust me. You'll like that place. Just get on!”
Shadow shook his head pointing at the back of the motorcycles’ seat.
Amy hesitated again for a moment, but finally got on.
“Hold on, Ames!” warned Shadow.
She had no choice, but to embrace the black and crimson hedgehogs’ waist.
They set off. Very soon they were out of the town. They passed a widely stretched green valley.
The wind that was blowing in Amy’s face was warm and somehow calming.
Without any second thought she leant to Shadows’ back. He glanced at her over his shoulder for a sec. The tears were sliding down her cheeks. Amy didn’t know the reason why she cried right now. Maybe it was just an emotional breakdown. But she didn’t care.
The bike was approaching a big rocky canyon.
“Is this our destination?” Amy thought rather disappointedly.
And yet it was. Shadow stopped the bike and they both got off.
“Now, take my hand” he proclaimed “I’m going to use Chaos Control, cause this is the only safe way for you to get there.”
“Couldn’t you have used it right from the beginning?” Amy twitched an eyebrow.
“Ah, yeah. I could have. But bike rides create their unique atmosphere and I didn’t want you to miss it.” Shadow looked at her with a smirk on his face and some unreadable expression in his eyes.
“I think I understand what you mean” Amy replied quietly.
She gave him her hand.
“Chaos Control!” said Shadow clasping, produced out of nowhere, green Chaos Emerald in his left hand and Amy’s palm in the other hand.
A flash of green light took them away. Only the bike remained still on the canyons’ edge.
