       Amy's whole body was tense, the moment she heard the knocking.  She worried that it might have been Shadow, pulling another trick on her like he did earlier.  Amy walked over to the door, very precautious with who might be on the other side.  When she opened the door, she was immediately relieved.
       "Hi, Amy," Cream said, as she waved with a smile on her face.
       "Hey, Cream.  Would you like to come in?" she asked, trying her best not to show her worry from before.  She stepped out of the way and allowed Cream to enter her home.
       "So, what have you been up to lately?" asked Cream, as she followed Amy into the kitchen.
       "Quite the day I've had so far," she said, not sure if she should tell Cream, "If I told you, you probably wouldn't believe me."
       "Really?  That bad, huh?" she asked, giving her a concerned look, "Want to tell me over a cup of tea?"
       Amy sighed.  It was really hard for her not to tell Cream anything.  She looked at her like she was her little sister, always trying to help, whenever they could.
       Slightly defeated, Amy sighed, "Sure, why not.  I was about to get something to eat anyway."
       The two of them made their way into Amy's kitchen and began getting things together for their tea.  Amy filled blue tea kettle and filled it up with water, while Cream got the tea bags out from the cupboard.  She had been over at Amy's house so many times; she knew where Amy kept almost everything.  When the water was ready, Amy poured the hot water in a tea pot with two tea bags inside.  Cream had made toast for each of them and set the table with all the fixings for their small snack.  It wasn't long before they had everything ready and sat at the table, across from each other.
       "So, what happened to you, today?" asked Cream, as she poured two spoons of sugar into her tea and began to stir.
       Amy sighed again.  "I had quite the day.  Everything that happened today kept going from bad to worse.  Then, just when things start to get better for me, they turn out just as bad as the events from before."
       Cream listened intently, as Amy told her about her morning.  She told her about her massive headache from the events from yesterday.  Next, she told her about how, when she went to the store and came back, her whole room was ransacked and destroyed.  Then, she told her about the "secret admirer" letter she had received and all the events that happened at the Casinopolis Café Lounge.
       All the while, Cream couldn't help but think to herself, This has to be the work of Shadow.  He must have done all of this for something.
       "Long story short, Shadow kept bad-mouthing Sonic, so I yelled at him and took off," said Amy, as she paused and took a sip of her tea.  She bit into her jam covered piece of toast and smiled, feeling slightly better.
       "Wow, that's some story," said Cream, as she wiped her mouth with a napkin, "It sounds like you had quite the day."
       Amy sighed.  "Well, that's most of it, but there was one last thing that happened, but I don't know if what I did was the right choice."
       Cream raised an eyebrow and asked, "What happened?"
       "Well," said Amy, feeling a little reluctant to tell her, "You see, after I came home, and before you arrived, I got a phone call from Shadow.  He called to apologize to me about what he had said earlier and…"
       "Let me guess," said Cream, cutting Amy off, "You accepted his apology, but you feel that you shouldn't have let him off the hook that easily, right?"
       "Not exactly," said Amy, as she twiddled her thumbs under the table, "The thing is, I didn't accept his apology at all, but he said he wanted to make it up to me."
       "How did he want to make it up to you?" Cream asked, as her heart began to race on overdrive.  Something didn't sound right in Amy's tone of voice.
       Amy cleared her throat and said, "Well, he asked to take me to Twinkle Park tonight and I accepted his invite."
       Time stood still the moment the words left Amy's mouth.  Cream's heart was racing so fast that it felt as if it had stopped beating all together.  Shadow had planned this whole thing from the beginning.  He set her up so that she had no choice but to accept his invite.  Cream knew she had to do something, and fast.
       "But I thought you didn't like Shadow," said Cream, "Especially after all those mean things he said about Mr. Sonic."
       "Well, I wouldn't say that I don't like him," said Amy, "I just don't like him anymore than a friend.  He's a nice guy, but he's just not my type."
       Cream decided to test the waters a little bit, just for a little piece of mind, by asking, in a casual tone, "If you had to pick between Mr. Sonic and Shadow, who would you pick?"
       Immediately, Amy went on the defensive.  "What are you trying to say?"
       "Who would you pick: Mr. Sonic, or Shadow?"
       "Are you saying that I'm picking Shadow over Sonic?" she asked.  "Are you saying that I'm trying to replace Sonic?"
       "No, No, that's not it at all!" exclaimed Cream, feeling a small bit relieved by her reaction, "I was just curious is all."
       Amy let out a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
       "Sorry, Amy," said Cream, "I didn't mean to offend you."
       "It's okay.  I'm sorry for snapping at you like that," said Amy, "I've just been on edge all day, and I just felt a little defensive for a moment.  To answer your question, I'd pick Sonic, no contest."
       Cream smiled wearily.  She knew she wasn't out of the clear just yet.  There had to be some way to make sure Shadow didn't try anything funny while they were together.  She began to quickly think of ways she could make sure nothing happened between them.  Sure, Amy said she chose Sonic now, but after tonight, Cream began to worry that her feelings might not be the same.  Then, an idea came across her mind.  She knew of a way she was going to make sure they didn't get too comfortable with each other, but she didn't know if Amy would back her on it.  That didn't matter to her, though.  She knew she had to, at least, try.
       Amy smiled and said, "Well, if you'll excuse me for a minute I have to…"
       "Can I come with you guys?" she blurted out, interrupting Amy.  The question had caught Amy off guard.  She had stopped walking the moment the words left Cream's mouth.
       "What?" she asked, trying to comprehend what Cream had said.
       "Can I come with you guys?" she asked again.  Then, she began to beg, "Please!  My mom would be fine with it!  C'mon, please!  Please, please, please, PLEASE!
       As always, Amy found it hard to say "no" to her.  She smiled again and said, "Sure, I don't see why not.  Shadow didn't say I couldn't bring anyone along.  Besides, he owes this to me.  It's not like it's a date or anything."
       The words had caused so much relief in Cream's inside that she leaped up and began hugging Amy, repeating the words, "Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!"
       When she released her, Cream said she had to go and tell her mom she was going with them tonight, so she said her goodbyes and made her way to her house.  As she walked, she began smiling to herself.
       You only think you've won this, Shadow, thought Cream, as she walked down the dirt road, But we'll see who's going to be laughing now!
       As she continued to walk, she let out a deep sigh of worry, as she began hoping that Tails was getting anywhere with his talk with Sonic.
Here's chapter 16...
