I wouldn't say that exactly. Maybe he doesn't entirely realize some things, but he also just...might not be interested.
[ As much as she's told herself that Sonic really does feel the same way about her, and that he just didn't understand his own feelings...sometimes she did have to consider the thought that Sonic just didn't feel the same way about her. ]
[ No matter where Shadow is, he might be able to hear the faint sound of muffled squealing in the distance, as Amy flails and rolls around on her bed in her excitement. ]
[ She groans, covering her face with her hands as she falls back onto her bed. ]
Uuuuugh, okay. Okay okay okay. Maybe I'm just thinking too much about this. It probably doesn't mean anything, right? We're friends. Friends hang out together all the time. It's probably just like a friend date.
[ She shakes her head again, not letting the sour mood settle for long. ] Okay, just relax, Amy...oh! I should...probably answer. [ She glances around, but doesn't immediately see her phone. ]
Where did - ? [ Leaning over the bed, she spots it on the floor, having fallen off the bed while she'd been flailing. As she reaches down to get it, she slips and falls herself, hitting the floor with a thud. ]
[Shadow's ear twitches while he's waiting for the response, he swears he heard something... Probably just a bird. Either way he had waited patiently for Amy to reply back so, the hard part.
What to do.]
There is a cafe I frequent that I think you may enjoy? Unless you have something you'd prefer to do.
[ Amy considers that for a moment. She doesn't think he means the Helleste Café, since she doesn't see him there often. And she does like checking out other cafes that she doesn't work at. ]
Sure that sounds fine! Maybe we could check out the cafe, and then take a walk through the park afterwards?
[ She hesitates a little before sending it, because she worries that that might seem a bit pushy. But it was still an innocent enough suggestion, so. ]

[Look, either way Shadow will think Sonic is a dummy. It's just in his nature.]
no subject
This is just an excuse for you to insult Sonic, huh?
[ She's partially joking. ]
no subject
[Joking or not, he's serious.]
no subject
Well anyway, thanks again for what you said. It means more to me than you know.
[ Much more. ]
no subject
[But her thanks do give him warm fuzzies, which he will deny happening.]
no subject
Or I guess read it, in this case
[ But the fact that he said it at all also makes her feel warm inside. ]
no subject
Yes, well... Good.
[And then he considers some advice he had gotten...]
I was also wondering if perhaps you'd like to do something together?
1/?
Is...he asking her out on a date? ]
2/?
That...had to be what it was, right?
He was asking her out.
On a date. ]
3/?
4/?
[ No matter where Shadow is, he might be able to hear the faint sound of muffled squealing in the distance, as Amy flails and rolls around on her bed in her excitement. ]
Omigoshomigoshomigoshomigoshomigosh
5/?
[ She suddenly sits up again, slapping her cheeks to snap herself out of her emotional outburst. ]
Shadow wouldn't really be asking me out, would he?
[ He wouldn't...right? ]
6/?
What else is it?
7/?
...
Right?
8/?
Uuuuugh, okay. Okay okay okay. Maybe I'm just thinking too much about this. It probably doesn't mean anything, right? We're friends. Friends hang out together all the time. It's probably just like a friend date.
9/?
...Would Shadow even know what a friend date is?
10/12
[ She tries to tell herself that as casually as possible, but it still manages to hurt somehow. ]
11/13 I lied
12/13
Ow!
13/13 I'm so sorry
Okay, just be cool, Amy. It's fine. Nothing to worry about.
[ She taps the sides of her phone as she thinks, and eventually (finally!) sends a reply. ]
Sure, I'd love to! Anything you have in mind?
Never be sorry

[Which he means it that way, cafe and a walk sounds good. Sounds. Normal.]
Would you like to meet at the cafe or should I come find you?
[He's not sure how this all works, after all.]
no subject
[ And sure, he could probably just text her the address and she'd be able to find it. But walking over just meant a little extra time together. ]
