Random scene

Hershey the Cat stood outside of Amy's hunt. She held a bowl of soup in her hands. She stared at the door contemplating if she should just ding dong ditch the food on the stoop or greet the young girl inside.
"Is she still refusing to see anyone?" Sonia asked.
Hershey jumped a little as she turned to see the magenta hedgehog.
"I'm not sure what to say when she amswers the door," the cat admitted.
"True." Sonia nodded. "Who would have thought Amy would react like that just by being asked to sing happy birthday."
"We were all sure if sugahog asked, she would do it," Bunnie as she walked up with another tray of food. "Is she not coming to the door?"
"Haven't knocked." Hershey replied with an embarrassed expression. The three girls stood around the porch. Amy Rose had run off crying after Sonic tried to get her to sing happy birthday to Rotor with him. None of them had expected her stage fright to be so bad.
"Maybe I should have brought ice cream..." Hershey mused.
"It would have melted by now," Sonia stated.
"Shouldn't one of us knock?" Bunnie asked.
"You were here first Hershey." Sonia waved a hand.
"Bunnie suggested it!" Hershey whined. "And you're not carrying anything, why don't you knock?"
"Are you three forming a cult on people's front lawns?" A voice cut through their hush whispers. The girls jerked back to see Geoffrey St. John staring at them.
"What are you doing here suga?" Bunnie asked.
"Walking." Geoffrey stated. "What's with the cultish behavior?"
"We're not in a cult," Hershey denied loudly.
Geoffrey arched an eyebrow. "Uh-huh. Are you trying to get Amy to join?"
"No," Hershey shook her head.
"Amy is upset and we're not sure how to cheer her up." Sonia answered. "They both brought food for her too."
"Is Amy not amswering the door?" Concern was evident of his face.
"We haven't knocked yet." Herhsey replied as she looked down.
"Well cold food isn't very good," Geoffrey stated as he walked past them to the door, "It's best to eat it warm and fresh." He knocked on the door loudly.
"Geoffrey!" Hershey hissed. "None of us know what to say to make her feel better yet. What if what we say something that makes her feel worse?"
"That's ridiculous. At the very least she'll be happy you tried." Geoffrey shot back.
"You just don't get it." Hershey shook her head. The two began a smal bickering war.
The door opened and she looked at them confused. She looked at Geoffrey and Herhsey bickering and then glanced at Bunnie and Sonia. She took note of the food in Herhsey's and Bunnie's hands. She took a deep breath. Bunnie smiled as Sonia gave a wave.
"What's going on?" Amy finally voiced.
"Oh hi Amy!" Hershey gave a nervous laugh. "I brought you some food."
"I see. Bunnie too." Amy nodded. "Why are you here?"
"We wanted to make you feel better about what happened earlier, suga." Bunnie stated.
"And you brought him because?" Amy pointed at Geoffrey.
"I was out for a walk when i saw them forming a cult on your stoop. You haven't joined a cult have you?" Geoffrey asked as he slowered himself to look her in the eye.
"No. I haven't joined a cult." Amy smiled. "Or at least not a new one ypu don't know about."
Geoffrey burst into a laughter. "That's my girl." He reached out to ruffle her hair.
"Dad, we talked about the hair ruffles." Amy pouted as she moved her head out of his way.
Geoffrey frowned. "Very well then.  I'll be on my way. Make sure you eat the food before it gets cold." With that he turned and walked away. "Oh remember to call your mom tonight."
"I will."
