Hello
Rated: R for 2nd chapter and later on.
Description: Everyone has got the thought in their heads that Chris' new stepfather is perfect, but he shows a different side towards Chris. Will his 'secret' love help him? (Chriskku, HUMAN-Sonic/Chris, yo.)
Genre: Drama/Romance/I dont wanna put Angst here but theres a lot of it o__o!!

............

I dont think Sonic X has seen such a darker side to it before. Ever.

Bad stuff in here, kiddies. Suicide attempts, Deaths, Almost-lemons. ... YES. Almost-Lemons. I'm too young to write a real lemon. Damn. Oh, but it all comes later in the story. This chapter is safe. Unless you hate Chris admitting love for someone who was once a hedgehog.

The first chapter is in Chris' POV. And the lyrics in the chapter are from Evanescence's "Whisper". ... And also, the title of the story is from Evanescence too. I love that band so much. :D The title has nothing to do with the first few chapters but comes in later.

By the way. I want no flames on this fic because of the pairing. It's Chris/Sonic, I know, BUT. Sonic is a HUMAN in this fic and NOT a hedgehog. Wtf. I love saying Wtf. XD;

I've spoken too much. Heres the story. o__o Wtf!

Hello - Chapter 1: Whisper

-- Chris' POV --

Catch me as I fall

Say you're here and it's all over now

Speaking to the atmosphere

No one's here and I fall into myself

This truth drives me into madness

I know I can stop the pain if I will it all away


One week ago was the anniversary of what happened to my father a year ago.

When he died, a promise he made to me was broken. Now since then, i've had a bunch of promises. Broken. Like they were never even made.

He was so fine the first minute, and then he went into the doctor's office. It was just one of those twice-a-year checkups. And then they found something. Some sort of disease. That whole week after that, I was panicking and running around everywhere. I couldn't concentrate, my grades kept falling... My father noticed this. He sat me down and told me it was going to be alright, that he wasn't going anywhere. And, I trusted his words. I started to relax more and be able to do what I couldnt do when I first found out.

And then two weeks later I was standing at his grave at his funeral.

I thought he said that he was going to be okay. Only about 4 or 5 days after that, I got a call from Ella while I was at school, that he suddenly shut down. Then I was drove to the hospital. And as soon as I got there, his heart stopped. I was too late to see him before he died. As soon as I saw him, I fell into shock. That's what my mom told me. Fell into shock, and couldnt eat, sleep, and could barely talk until one night when I was trying to sleep. I suddenly started crying and she came in and hugged me and got me to finally fall asleep after 48 straight hours.

And then there was that other promise. The one with my mom saying that my father would always be with her, that she would never love anyone but him.

So why did she marry my new stepfather? I never got to know his name. So, I can't call him anything. But that's besides the point. My mom said she would never love anyone else, and shes hanging around him like a leech. ... Actually EVERYONE is hanging around him like a leech. He's got everyone thinking hes the greatest person ever.

He's not. Not towards me.

When mom is away, he brings out his worst. He doesnt hit me or hurt me or anything, just tell me bad things, like how worthless I am. How stupid I am. How everything goes wrong because of me. He hurts me verbally.

Theyve been married about 2 or 3 months now. This has been going on since one of those months ago. And i'm not even used to having another father yet, I dont get over the people I love so quickly unlike my mother, obviously. My father died a year ago, when I was 14. I'm 15 now, such a short period of time to get over somebody who died and who was so close to you.

My mom doesn't care. She doesn't even KNOW. So she can't care. My dad can't care either, he's dead. My stepfather SURE doesn't care... There's one person who actually knows about this and cares.

Sonic. He found out about it a few days ago when I accidently let it slip around him. Now i've got him actually worrying more about me. Why is he worrying about me in the first place, you ask? Well... I think I can trust whoever is reading this. We are a 'secret' couple. We've liked each other for a while. I know you're thinking "Ew, what kind of sick freak are you?" But it's not what you think. See, around the time when my dad died, Sonic found this gem almost resembling a Chaos Emerald. As soon as he touched it, it turned him into a human form. I still laugh at the time where he came up to the door pretty much naked except how he used a pool floaty tire to cover himself up. Heh.

And... later on, we found out that we had feelings for each other. I mean... more than friendly feelings. And I shouldnt be talking about this, this is boring. Only a small part of what's going on right now.

I wish everyone wouldnt break their promises so much. I wish my dad was here. I wish my stepdad was gone. I wish he wouldnt remind me so much of why I shouldnt be here. I wish someone would so something about it...

Dad, why can't you just be there? Just stay here with me, and tell me it's going to be alright. Tell me it's going to be all over soon. If I believed you the first time, maybe I can try again...

Don't turn away
(Don't give in to the Pain)

Don't try to hide
(Though they're screaming your name)

Don't close your eyes
(God knows what lies behind them)

Don't turn out the light
(Never sleep, never die)
