Amy sat by the park's central fountain in silent sadness. Ever since Sonic announced to her and his other friends that he and Shadow were together, she'd been happy for the both of them, or she claimed to be. She didn't tell anyone, but she secretly felt a deep sadness, the love of her life having fallen for someone else. Part of her wondered if it was her fault, being so clingy to the blue hedgehog. She had been pretending to be her usual girly, happy self, all the while hiding her feelings of sadness and guilt.

For the thousandth time, Amy could feel tears forming behind her eyes. Before they could fall, however, someone came up to her. It was Rouge. The bat had just been out for a walk when she noticed Amy sitting by herself, rather forlornly, and she wanted to come see if she was alright. Though she already had an idea of what caused her desponency, she let her concern lead her to the pink hedgehog.

Rouge sat down beside Amy. "Still bumming over Sonic?" she asked.

Amy nodded, then sighed. "I know I couldn't force him to stay with me, and I know I should be happy for him and Shadow. I am, really I am. But....."

"But Sonic's been your crush for ages." Rouge said. "I get it. Being in love with someone and then realizing they're in love with someone else, I understand how that must feel."

"Not only that, but I feel like it's my fault." Amy said. "If I hadn't smothered him so much, or tried to keep him by my side all the time, then maybe he wouldn't have felt the need to find someone else."

"Maybe. But you know what, Amy? We just have to let our mistakes teach us to do better next time. So one day, when you find someone else, you'll be less likely to lose them."

Amy smiled, comforted by Rouge's words, but then she felt her cheeks heat up with a sudden blush. She briefly wondered what brought it up, but a second later realized that she knew what is was.

Somehow, being so close to the bat and hearing her kind encouragement, Amy had fallen in love with Rouge.

Now, Rouge's cheeks were tinted the same soft pink hue as she her pity for Amy grew into something much bigger. Love.

In so little time, the two girls had fallen for each other.

Amy scooted closer to Rouge, so close that she was almost on the bat's lap. They leaned in close, slowly shortening the gap between their lips.

And then the gap was gone.

One kiss was all it took for the spell to take hold. The second their lips touched, the girls pulled each other as close as they could, not wanting to leave an inch of space between them. Their lips parted and their tounges were added to the kiss, the spell of love tightening its hold on them. When they finally broke away to catch their breath, they looked as though they had snapped out of a trance, their eyes were glazed over and their cheeks were a deeper, more passionate shade.

"How about we take this someplace more private?" Rouge asked.

A while later, the girls were standing in Rouge's bedroom, facing each other. As they kissed, they absently undressed each other, unaware of doing so, and soon they were fully exposed. Rouge pulled Amy close and pressed her chest to the hedgehog's. Her fingers fiddled with Amy's slit, coaxing a soft moan from her. She pulled Rouge in for another kiss, and the girls fell onto the bed, still kissing.

Rouge positioned herself on top of Amy and spread her legs apart, then pressed her slit up against the hedgehog's. She began moving her hips back and forth, their moistening snatches rubbing together. Amy had never felt something like this before, but it felt amazing. She pulled Rouge closer to her and arched her hips, thrusting along with the bat.

Rouge then lifted Amy's legs onto her shoulders and thrusted harder, her and Amy's moans becoming more intense and less in their control. Their slits were wet like mad, their climaxes were speeding to the surface. Amy was almost breathless and nearly delusional with pleassure, but she managed to repeadedly call out Rouge's name with increasing volume and intensity.

Finally, with one last call of the bat's name, both girls came, letting out final moans as they did.

The girls lay cuddling on the bed, catching their breath. When Amy's head cleared, she thought of the wondeful change to her previously sad fortune. Just moments ago, she mourned losing her beloved Sonic to Shadow. But in so little time, she found someone to ease her heartache away.

She didn't see it coming, but Rouge was her true partner. She was the one Amy would spend her life with. The love of her life.

Ten Months Later

Amy and Rouge walked hand-in-hand on a beautiful night. Earlier that evening, Rouge had invited Amy to a fancy resteraunt she once begged Sonic to take her to. They walked to the middle of a small wooden bridge and watched the starlit night sky.

Amy sighed with contentment. "It's such a beautiful night, Rouge." she said, leaning into the bat's shoulder.

"It is." Rouge agreed. "Amy, I have something I want to ask you. I know this is something you always wanted from Sonic, so..."

Rouge pulled out a small silver box and opened the lid, revealing a gold ring with a pink diamond rose.

"Will you marry me?"

Amy gasped with delight. "Oh, Rouge! Yes, of course I will!"

Rouge slid the ring onto Amy's finger, its jeweles sparkling in the starlight, and the engaged girls shared a heartfelt kiss.
