Chapter 12: Amy's decision and Shadow's confusion.
...One week has passed since Amy's poor health...
And around the duration that past week, Amy Rose finally got over her illness and made a full recovery. Feeling revitalized and full of life once again, the pink flower soon started bouncing off the walls being the cheerful, fun-loving hedgehog she is. Much to Shadow's delight even though he's not one to show it.
Least not yet.
As far as Amy and Shadow coexisting with one another, it has gotten better. Shadow has been...talking more. Well, only conversation's he deems worthy of discussing about. The best part about all of this is when Amy, on her last try, asked Shadow if she can have one of his empty unused rooms To Amy's surprise, Shadow ACTUALLY said yes. The ebony gave her a small bedroom within the dark hallway across from the bathroom. The pink flower has never been happier of having her own personal space and within a couple of days later, she ended up buying cheap affordable furniture and bedding for her room.
No more sleeping in the living room sofa for the excited rose.
As far as Shadow the Hedgehog...his perspective for Amy...changed. Amy's glowing smile, her bells of laughter, the precious humming, the need of wanting to touch the pink flower, and a whiff of Amy's ravishing peach/berry fragrance here or there. Shadow just didn't know what to do with himself! Day after day the ebony just wanted more of Amy but at the same time, needed to keep his self-reserved, solemn behavior in check.
And as much as Shadow the Hedgehog wanted the blossoming pink flower.
There's still so uncomplicated thing's he needs to take care of.
Himself.
Despite the teeth-chattering cold, Monday evening.
There was a splendid yet gorgeous sunset coming from the West. Its distinctive colors of tangerine and lemon tinted the atmosphere, waning off whatever cerulean pigment left in the sky. With no cloud or snow fall in sight; the enchanting hue was free to densely radiate its dull fascination across the deep, glacial forest of the Mystic Ruin's humble community from above.
Even though the twilight's shallow brilliance was magnificent...its beauty was nothing compared to a certain pink flower and her supportive close friend on the job echidna, down below in the tarnished forest.
Amy's current attire was; a pearl-colored mid trench coat, her traditional white gloves and gold bracelets, white long scarf wrapped around her neck, light pink ear muffs, pearl-colored snow boots, and her quills tied into a bun. Tikal's winter attire consist; a long lavender trench coat past her knee leveled, traditional white gloves, white short scarf bundled around her neck, light purple ear muffs, lavender colored snow boots, and quills tied up to a pony tail. Though the two of them were still in uniform.
And just getting over the bitter stress and exhaustion, Tikal and Amy were in a hurry to make it back home on time after a long day of work and shopping. With Tikal on her right and Amy to her left, together as friends they walked in silence getting closer to the narrow parts of the woods. Amy grasped one large brown grocery bag in her arms up against her chest while Tikal, carried her own plastic bag of groceries on her right arm. As the forest was getting strangely smaller with all the snow-covered trees and bushes bunched up, Tikal had to dodge from one tree branch to another with a groan whereas Amy had to hop over multiple tree roots sticking up with a sigh.
It just made traveling much slower now.
Amy eyes widened as she stumbled over a stray tree root and immediately stopped herself from falling, almost dropping her groceries. Gritting her teeth in humiliation, she fumed. "I HATE going through these parts of the woods." Amy growled and gripped the brown bag tighter against her bosom.
Tikal wasn't having much luck either as she accidentally ran into a hanging tree branch with a rough surface, hitting both her eyes in pain. "Kyaa-AAAH!" The poor echidna shrieked and frantically stepped back, rubbing the agony away from her sapphire spheres.
Amy stared in horror and gasped at her friend's cries. "TIKAL!" She quickly rushed to Tikal's aid and stood right next to her. watching Tikal removed her hands from off her watery pink eyes.
"Are you okay?" Amy asked.
The darling echidna removed her hand's. "I'm alright, dear." Tikal eyed Amy as she blinked her watery pink eyes. "Let's keep going." She said with a faint smile, trying to sound normal.
Amy nodded in agreement as she still displayed a worried look and soon, Tikal and herself resumed walking side by side. Some minutes later after that gruesome ordeal just trying to avoid anymore blunders or accidents, the orange/caramel echidna and the pink flower were able to walk a smooth path again onto the thick snow beneath their shoes. They shared a moment of relief to themselves, seeing as there are now less trees and brushes ahead.
"Thank Chaos." The pacifist echidna beamed, walking a bit faster now.
The pink flower cutely furrowed her brows and walked faster, seeing as Tikal went ahead of her. "We should try another path next time." Amy smiled and caught up to her friend.
And Amy kept on...smiling...with her muzzle faintly blushing?
Hm.
As Tikal narrowly kept her eyes ahead, Amy was soon trapped in her own little world with a hazy expression thinking about...impressing Shadow.
Interesting.
Verde eyes glanced down at the brown bag, displaying a bashful smug. "I hope Shadow will like the stuffed green peppers I'm going to make tonight." Amy thought, gleefully. She then closed her eyes as muzzle glowed even redder. "Hm, lately I can't help but wonder how strange Shadow's been behaving around me." She tried not to giggle. "And I noticed his eyes...I've never seen them glowed with such fury and darkness." Amy sighed, passionately.
The pink flower's blushing soon vanished as she turned her attention to Tikal. Amy gave a sweet, playful frown. This whole time, the intense sapphire eye echidna and herself has walked during the cold freezing forest without engaging in a conversation. It's not like they were at work. None hadn't even attempt to speak with one another except when Tikal hurt herself earlier.
Still maintaining her childish demeanor, Amy of course, became the first to speak. "The grocery store sure packed back there, wasn't it?" She puckered her lips in complaint.
Tikal closed her eyes as she hung her head with a sweet chuckle. "I know, did you see how far back we were in line?" She groaned, remembering in displeasure.
Amy turned her neck away from her sweet friend, looking ahead again. "Yeah, good thing no one ahead of us had a lot of groceries." The pink lady beamed, just before she dropped her kiddie expression.
The darling echidna lowered her brows as she kept her eyes on the road. "I'm just happy it didn't take as long, dear." Tikal agreed, with grace and gratitude.
Both echidna and hedgehog went back to walking in silence since Amy was a bit satisfied with the small talk she received. After some minutes, the pink flower began to hum a sweet, melodic tone from her throat to whatever song she knows. Unbeknown to Amy, Tikal closed her eyes in amusement and lightly bobbed her head sideways to the pleasing music.
That was until Amy abruptly stopped her humming only to looked back down in her large grocery bag with a sigh. Making Tikal snapped her eyes open.
And although Tikal never asked Amy why she ceased her sing-song attitude, the pacifist echidna sensed the pink flower's sudden depressive mood. She only laughed. "Mmm...here it comes." Tikal waits for it.
"Hey...Ti...?" Amy sighed again, indirectly.
Tikal half-lidded her sapphire eyes as she displayed a cheesy grin, suspecting Amy's problem surfacing. "I wonder what's she's going through this time?" She eyed her friend. "That tone of voice, Amy..." The orange/caramel echidna emphasized, low and playfully.
The pink flower flinched as she closed her eyes. "She knows me too well now." Amy bit her bottom lip. One of her jade orbs opened and eyeballed Tikal back with her ears folded. "Can I ask you for a favor?" She asked, with a pinch of regret already.
The sweet echidna motioned her sapphire eyes back ahead on the snowy path, still walking forward. "Sure, dear." Tikal grinned, feeling ready.
The baffled rose motioned her verde eyes back ahead, also looking where she's going. "Can you check your neighborhood to see if there's any affordable apartment for rent?" Amy asked, in hopes of a 'yes'.
"..."
Tikal eyes widened in confusion as she was left speechless whereas Amy, remained quiet.
"..."
Neither girls looked at eachother as they continued to walk.
"..."
Tikal still held her flabbergasted look. Amy however, had a blank expression on her face.
"..."
Sixty seconds later.
Tikal finally shook herself off from that awkward trance as she rose both her brows. "What's wrong with the place you live in now?" The echidna asked, patiently. "Weren't thing's okay between you and this Shadow?" She tried to reconfirmed.
Amy shook her head and shoulders after being brought back to reality just hearing Tikal's voice. She looked down on herself. "Sometimes I can't help but feel like I'm imposing my roommate now." Amy admitted, in shame.
"How so?" The pacifist echidna, questioned.
"I live rent free and Shadow never had me pay for utensils..." Amy confessed, in disappointment.
"Uhm err...Am-" Tikal fumbled her words.
"My only contribution to my stay is cooking, grocery shopping, and cleaning up after myself."
"That's actually no-"
"Sometimes I feel like a nuisance to my roommate nowadays." Amy goes on.
"Okay, that's a pretty considerate of you but-" Tikal failed to reason.
"Sure, Shadow provided me privacy after I asked him yet..." Amy repeatedly, cuts off Tikal.
Tikal rubbed the back of her head feeling dumbfounded. "What is she talking about?" She blinked as she dropped her arm back to her side. "People would kill to live like that without paying any bills or all that other stuff." She closed her eyes and gave it one more attempt, reopening them again. "You sure you want to mov-"
"And to top it all off, I can't help but feel I made myself too comfortable and half the time I'm reluctant to leave!" Amy STILL didn't let Tikal voice in her opinion.
That kind of did it.
Tikal threw her head back in a minor frustration. "Amy, what you just mentioned doesn't even sound like real issues." She jerked her face at the surprised. "No offense dear but maybe it's you this time." Sapphire eyes finished sternly, with a pinch of gentleness.
Exactly.
Amy flinched at Tikal's truthful saying, even if she was trying to being gentle about it. "She's right but..." She sighed.
Even though Amy and Tikal was just about closer to home, neither showed much excitement after the "so-called" fallout with their interaction. Still walking on the white patch surface beneath her shoes, Amy tried to forget about how Tikal put her on 'blast'. She clutched her large brown bag tightly and looked up in the sky. The once alluring sunset colors were now gone. This whole time the surprised hedgehog and the sweetly firmed echidna were talking, Amy hadn't realized how dark it has become. They were both late making it home now and sky was making the woods look even more...
Darker...
And darker.
Without further due, the sapphire orbs couldn't stand the quietness coming from Amy. With a blissful sigh, Tikal used her free arm just wrapped it around and pulled her closer to a hug.
Tikal turned her gentle demeanor at the quiet rose, smiling. "I didn't mean to sound like that, dear." She reassured, smoothly. "It's just that you got the kind of life style that other's would be really envy of." Tikal reminded Amy.
Amy glanced at the echidna. "Really?" She smiled, sheepishly.
Tikal removed her arm of from Amy's neck. "Amy, you live free of cost from and this Shadow guy isn't asking a darn thing from you." The echidna addressed to Amy, looking straight ahead now.
The pink flower looked down on her large grocery back, shrugging. "I guess that's true.." She whispered, delicately.
"Besides, it seems like you've already settled yourself with this Shadow guy." Tikal scratched her loose quills.
Amy squeezed her lips together, groaning. "Mmmm." Her face wrinkled.
Sapphire eyes glanced at Amy as she displayed a curious look. "Why suddenly you want to move out and start paying bills again?" She almost laughed.
Amy turned her neck to Tikal and expressed a bland, soft look. "Ti, I miss my independence." She spoke up.
Oh.
Tikal ceased her humor.
As well as both Amy and herself stopped walking. Tikal circled her body around first to face Amy and the pink flower followed, facing eachother now.
Tikal gave a proud demeanor at Amy, making her blush. "Talk about maturity." She smiled, making her flush and giggle.
Amy stopped her laughter and heaved a relaxing breath just before she got serious. "You're right about one thing, I am fortunate that I got a roof over my head without hardly spending a penny." She said, being open-minded. "Trust me, I've never felt any richer saving money too." The pink flower forced a laugh.
Tikal half-lidded her eyes, nodding in agreement. "I'm starting to understand now." She replied.
Amy then hung her head down as her bangs shadowed her eyes. "But I can't stay with my roommate Shadow any longer." She crept a smile. "You heard what I said earlier in the conversation, right? He's done so much for me and I bet Shadow doesn't even know it." The pink flower got teary-eyed and rose her head back up. "I just feel so bad and I don't want to take advantage of Shadow's "hospitality" anymore." Amy finished with a small groan..
Sapphire spheres gave one more reassurance as she gave a soft questionable gaze. "Is that how you really feel?" Tikal asked.
Amy only nodded. "Please Tikal?" The pink flower almost begged. "It's not like me to depend on anyone for anything." She tried to convince her friend and herself.
Tikal just urged Amy to go on. She never thought the little lady would be so upfront about herself and whatever situation she's in.
Amy face shone with beauty and sincerity as she tilted her face. "There's more to it than just being a Freedom Fighter and dedicating your life into protect others." The pink flower half-lidded her jade eyes, feeling good. "It's also about growth and being my own role model." She finished her speech.
Wow.
Tikal placed a hand over Amy's cheek and began to rub it, giving her a gratifying look. "For someone her age to talk like that, I'd say she already grew up." The darling echidna thought, with pride. "Okay Amy, I'll see what a part of my neighborhood has." She complied, releasing her hand from Amy's cheek.
Amy jumped with joy. "Thank you SO much, Tikal." Her face brightened.
The sweet echidna laughed at Amy's sweet, childlike bouncing behavior. "She can act so innocent and still work her way up to maturity." She just shook her head, smiling. "With pleasure and watch that grocery bag, dear." Tikal winked.
Amy ceased her bouncing. "Really...thank you for being a great friend to me." She gave her gratitude to her best friend. "I'm glad I've met you and hopefully in the future, we can hangout more." Amy hoped, fluttering her eye lashes.
Tikal gave a thumps up. "It's a date then." She promised.
Both girls nodded at one another after their understanding. Checking their surroundings, it has gotten so late, so much dark; the woods don't even look attractive anymore this time of night now. It became deathly quiet and eerie. No other sound was except for both hedgehog and echidna's breathing.
"Let's hurry and get out of here." Tikal said, calmly.
"Right." Amy agreed.
And JUST before Tikal and Amy made their first step.
The sound of speed was being heard from a distant and the two girls were to slow to react.
WHOOOOOOOOOSH
Trees and bushes swayed in one direction as the snow flew off abruptly.
A blue blur zip past Tikal and Amy in supersonic speed leaving a strong trail of azure wind behind. Both girls kept their feet on the ground, trying to hold on to their groceries and keep from falling down
As the echidna got her composure back after she thought she was getting a heart attack, the pink lady just stood wide-eyed in shock.
Amy's face slowly brightened in amazement. "That speed of sound..." She thought, in happiness.
The baffled echidna looked at the direction where the blue trail disappeared to. "What was that?" She stammered, looking at Amy.
The pink flower ignored her friend's calling as she was lost in thought. She gave a heart-filled smile. "That was So-" Tikal yanked Amy out of her thoughts as she dragged the poor rose by her wrist. Now running through the snowy patch leaving irregular footprint trails behind, this kind of speed forced Amy to hold her large grocery bag with one arm.
Tikal kept on running with Amy behind her as she's the first one to admit to hate walking in the woods this time of night. "Next season, I'm getting my driver's license." She promised.
The pink woman gave a crazy look at the back of her best friend's head. "Tikal, what are you talking about?" Amy stuttered, cocking a funny brow. "Couldn't you just climb a tall tree and glide your way down home?" She tried and failed to remind her friend of her abilities.
The pacifist echidna paid no attention to the Amy, seeing as she had enough walking in the dark after work, shopping, or whatever. Not that it scared her or even Amy. Just using common sense, anything lurks in the dark and anyone be too stupid to hang around longer unless lost. They don't know what's out there.
And in a matter of time, the two disappeared further and further in the dark, snowy woods reaching home.
...
Minutes later after Tikal and Amy ran off..
The blue blur zipped right back to the very spot he left the two girls bewildered after Amy and Tikal were force to take off running. He scratched his head and wondered where the two women ran off too.
That is until his emerald orbs glanced down at the irregular shaped footprints below.
Sonic stood still for a moment as he COULD'VE sworn one of the women looked familiar when he sped by. "Amy?" He blinked and thought for a second just before he displayed a striking smirk. "That has to be Amy!" He said, triumph.
Feeling good that his pink comrade is alright and not frightfully missing off the face of Mobius, Sonic decided to follow the disfigured snow footprints in secret, refusing to use his supersonic-speed to give himself away.
Sonic then cocked a brow as he smiled in both happiness and disappointment. "This is why I keep telling Amy to get a cellphone and what happens?" Sonic shook his head. "She goes AWOL and no one could get a hold of her." He shrugged, still following the footprints.
The azure hedgehog hung his head down and sighed. "Then again, why hadn't she took the time to call me or the rest of the guys? And where has she been this whole time?" Sonic's last thought wandered off.
He'll soon find out.
Dusk.
No wind or snow at all, except the tongue-biting chilly air outside.
Standing outside with his back turned behind the front door of the snow-covered roof beige house, the ebony patiently waits for his pink roommate to come home after he noticed how much dark it has gotten. Feeling ready to just stand outdoors in the cold for a while without enduring the freezing winter air penetration his fur, Shadow's winter attire and clothes for tonight was; a mixture of black/dark crimson down jacket, underneath is a dark blue long sleeve V-neck shirt, black denim jeans, his traditional hover shoes, gloves, and inhibitors.
Screw the ear muffs, winter hats, and scarves!
In his right hand, Shadow tapped into his cracked screen IPhone 4 and looked at the Time. He only frowned. "Rose, is late." He thought, placing the phone into his jacket pocket.
It was 8:39 p.m. and still no Amy Rose.
Shadow replaced his frown with a lucid expression, smirking with his arms crossed. "She'd probably went shopping again...I'll never understand women." He shook his head.
The ebony took his first step off the porch onto the snowy ground as his hover shoes were already leaving a trail from behind. Being a few feet away from his house, Shadow looked from his left and right and still, no signs of the bubbly pink flower walking, running, or coming out between trees nor bushes.
He hung his head down as he placed both hand's in his pocket and halted, scowling in boredom. "Perhaps I should sear-" Shadow felt a jerky sensation travel up to his right arm that caused him to snap his head up, being brought out of his thoughts.
The IPhone 4 vibrated inside one of Shadow's jacket pocket.
"..."
The black hedgehog's expression darkened with hostile and annoyance as he pulled out his phone. "I'll tear that blue hedgehog's ass a new one if I see that's him calling me." Shadow mumbled, as he looked down at his IPhone 4 caller ID.
"..."
Shadow half-lidded his eyes and displayed a poker-face.
-Rouge the Bat's name appeared on screen-
The ebony dropped his awkward expression and rolled his eyes. "What does she want now?" He pressed the talk button and placed the phone up to his right ear. "What?" Shadow answered, distantly.
Shadow heard a girly grunt from the end of the line. "You need to start saying 'hello' when you answer the phone, Shadow." Rouge's pointed out her partners fault.
"Hmph." The ebony disregarded, not caring what his G.U.N. partner just told him.
"Sooooooo, how things between you and Pinky been up to?"
"None of your business."
"May I remind you that it IS my business seeing as I was the one who pushed you into giving Amy a chance?" The jewel thief reminded Shadow, in mischief.
"Don't start with me tonight, Rouge." Shadow warned, hinting some hostile to it.
"Don't start with ME tonight, Shadow." Rouge mimicked, hinting some sass to it.
"..."
Shadow hasn't been on the phone for not even 15 seconds and already he wanted to hang up. "Wrong night to do this to me, Rouge..." He gripped the phone tighter in his grasp. "YOU MESS AROUND TOO MUCH!" The ebony barked, not caring if his tone was too loud.
A sharp, high pitch squeak was heard. "Ow my ear, you ASS of a HEDGEHOG!" Rouge screamed, probably rubbing her ringing ears.
"Teh, you had it coming." Shadow smirked, in victory.
"Shadow, I'm not hanging up until you tell me how thing's between Amy and yourself been doing!" The lovely white bat demanded, knowing she always get what she wants.
Shadow face-palmed, growling in disbelief. "Again, with this?" He dropped his free hand. "Very well." Shadow answered, smoothly.
"Finally!" The sassy Rouge bellowed, in excitement. "So, anything interesting happened since we last spoke?" She hummed, patiently waiting through phone.
"Yes and No."
"You're making it sound like both good and bad happened."
"It did, what did you expect?"
"Alright, I want to hear the bad first." Rouge calmly asked, through the phone. "You know, just to get it out the way." She purred, adding some bitter sweetness to it.
"I made Rose cry at one point." Shadow bluntly admited his main mistake.
Even over the phone, Shadow heard a 'slap', probably indicating Rouge face-palming. "What did I tell you about your ATTITUDE!?" Rouge scolding pierced through the phone.
"Be silent, Rouge." Shadow remained, cool and calm. "I apologized to her and since then, Rose and I has been on positive terms."
"Oh good, for a moment I thought you never took my advice."
"Yes about that, I'll thank you in your next life seeing as I'm immortal." Shadow spoke, in dry sarcasm.
"I still believe that if a blunt object went through your heart, you'd probably die from it." Rouge snickered.
"Don't be preposterous, Rouge." Shadow grumbled, arrogantly. "I'm no vampire."
"Anyway, what's the good part? The jewel thief decided to get back on topic.
Shadow suddenly remembered that he was outside of his house waiting for Amy to come back home. He turned his neck from left to right just to make sure no one or even Amy herself walk up on him, knowing the ebony seeing he is in for another one of those "serious" conversation's with the curvaceous bat over the phone.
He was completely alone.
"..."
"Shadow, you still there?" Rouge wondered, the ebony was too quiet now.
"Rose." He spoke, velvety.
"...What about her?" The jewel thief replied, a bit surprised at Shadow's tone.
Shadow lowered his eye-lids and displayed a dull, soft and silky demeanor. "I don't know but when I'm around Rose, I have this unnerving desire to have her." He practically whispered.
"So, Amy herself is the good?" The jewel thief questioned.
"Yes." Shadow said lowly, not realizing what he just told Rouge just now.
"..."
Scarlet eyes widened in stupidity.
The ebony just admitted he liked Amy.
Oh, crap...
"How exactly do you feel around, Amy." Rouge wondered, in mischief.
Shadows expression darkened, completely dropping his 'hazy' look. "I just told you." He reminded Rouge.
"Didn't tell me a lot, handsome." She giggled, hinting some evil snicker to it.
Rouge was all ears for this now!
The black hedgehog closed his eyes and hung his head, groaning. "It was a mistake to tell Rouge this." He opened his eyes slowly, eying the phone in his ear. "Just drop the subject, it's no importance." He said, in almost regret.
Rouge hummed in questioning through the phone."But you just mentioned you have this desire for Amy." She replied, not understanding Shadow's sudden behavior to change the subject. "Sounds like you're kind of attracted to her." She teased, in mischief.
"I'm not going to ask you again." He warned for the last time.
"You want her like that?" Rouge persistently pressed the issue, giggling.
"No...Rouge." Shadow closed his eyes, furrowing his brows. "I want ALL of Rose." He groaned, in confession.
Shadow is serious.
The curvaceous bat ceased her teasing. "Shadow..." She called his name, sounding genuine. "When did you start feeling like this?" Rouge asked.
"Since..." The ebony grimaced as his muzzle nearly...flushed? Shake it off! "Rose made physical contact with me by hugging." He replied, smoothly.
"You know, I would've thought a kiss would do the trick but a hug?" Rouge sounded pretty puzzled.
"Perhaps what I'm experiencing is just a mindless urge." Shadow tried to pass it off.
"No, it's not."
"How do you figure that?"
"You just admitted that you like Amy, right?"
"Yes."
"And you feel different but in a good way when you're around her, right?
"I cannot deny that, yes."
"Soooooooo..." The treasure hunter playfully sang. "Why are you trying to pass it up?" She asked, bluntly
The ebony lowered his crimson orbs as he sunk his shoulders, staring down at the snow surrounding his feet. "'I'm not the hedgehog she'd prefer anyway." He said, rubbing the back of his quills.
Rouge smacked her lips through the phone. "You don't know that."
"We both know Rose always has her eyes set on that blue hedgehog." Shadow countered.
"And did anything happen between Amy and Sonic?" Rouge gave it back.
"Now, we don't know that." The ebony responded, in a gruff.
"How about we stop using the 'know' in a sentence for a while."
"Whatever."
"When I suggested for you to open up or at least tap into your soft side, it was more like loosen up the rough and tough attitude." The jewel bat clarified. "Also try to be more inviting towards some things you'd normally find annoying and I thought Amy would indirectly help you on that." She finished, sounding bittersweet to the end.
"You're making it sound like I was horrible from the very start." The black hedgehog said.
"Oh believe me, I am." Rouge tried to hold it in. "But I wasn't...(crackled through her teeth)...expecting you t-to d-deve-lop (She chortled) a crush on AMY!." She bawled out laughing.
Shadow was not one to be teased by anyone, eyes flashing in anger and malice. "You find this funny you DESPICABLE WOMAN!?" He boomed over the phone.
Rouge slowly ceased her laughter. "Okay Mr. Doom and Gloom, shit." She completely stopped. "Now then, what're you going to do?" She asked, with a soft chuckle.
"Do what?"
"About your attraction towards Amy."
"What I tried to suggest earlier; drop it."
"And let your feeling's go unanswered?" The treasure hunter heaved a puff. "Shadow, just fucking go for it already." She fumed, wanting Shadow to stop being so stubborn with himself.
"Why should I?"
"Amy is only living with you until she finds her own place, remember?"
The ebony grimaced and as much he tried to brush of the thought of Amy leaving, he simply just...couldn't. "Yo-You're...right." He acknowledged, smoothly.
"Shadow, you don't know how much time you have left."
"Perhaps, you're on to something then."
"So from this point on, it's all you." Rouge sassed, with a mixture of sweet encouragement.
"Even so."
"Really, you can either ignore it or-"
"Explore it." She finished, with a tasteful chirp.
"I won't forget this, Rouge." Shadow 'thanked', the lovely bat over the phone.
"I'm have to go because Knuckles is coming over and it's going to a long, sensual, and satisfying erotic night."
The ebony almost dropped his phone.
And Shadow displayed a distasteful, disgusted expression at the thought of his G.U.N. partner and Knuckles...No, just no! "Don't you ever tell me about your business with that echidna again." He snarled, baring his fangs.
The lovely white bat muffled a laugh just before she bawled out again. "Ahahaha! And if something REALLY interesting happens between you and Amy, let me be the first to know." Rouge beamed, with SUCH excitement over the phone.
"Stay out of my business."
"Also when the time REALLY comes, just be as slow and gentle as possible with Amy." She teased, hinting Shadow that Amy may still be a virgin.
"You fu-"
-Click-
In. Your. Face!
Shadow half-lidded his scarlet spheres as he slowly took the phone from off his ear and glanced at it. Cocking a brow the ebony showed no signs of anger, malice, or even frustration this time. "Maybe I should be like Rose and not carry a phone around since this is all I've been getting lately." He said, as his ear's attempted to twitch in SOME form of irritation.
The ebony then circled back around to the snowy footprint trails he left behind, leading back to his front steps and house. Shadow only made two steps forward narrowing his face as if he meant to do something earlier before his G.U.N. partner called...
Of course.
The black hedgehog walked no further as his face sprung with shock and concern. "Rose." Shadow remembered and turned his heel BACK around and got his footing set on the snow."I almost forgot, I meant to search for Rose seeing it got so late." He tensed up, slouched a bit and, was ready to go super-speed until-
"Shadow!" A sweet, melodic voice sang his name.
Coming out between the naked yet snow-covered trees and brushes, the happy-to-be-home Amy Rose ran her way up to Shadow carrying a large bag of groceries. As Amy happily continued to run up to her ebony roommate, it was obvious that the bottom of the brown bag of groceries was kind of ripped and her bun 'quillstyle' was loosely falling apart due to all that running earlier.
Thanks to Tikal.
The ebony closed his eyes and relaxed his muscles, seeing as the pink flower made it home after all. "About time." He smirked in relief, getting out from his footing position just before he was about to search for Amy.
Amy stopped in front of Shadow and smiled sheepishly, partially slouched over catching her breath. "Hi Shadow." She heaved, in and out through her lungs.
Shadow displayed a soft and blank expression at the pink flower. "Evening Rose." He greeted back, both sleek and dark.
The pink flower straightened herself and gave Shadow a cute smug. "When are you going to start calling me by my first name again?" She playfully fumed, eyes twinkling
"..."
That look.
The ebony's expression became softer as his ruby orbs pierced deep into the those fuming green jewels. "...Rose..." He half-lidded his eyes and stared at Amy, blankly.
After hearing her name sound like that, Amy stood frozen and blinked at Shadow's sudden...soft demeanor? "He's doing it again only..." She whispered, melodically.
...Shadow, didn't hear her?
Without knowing it, the ebony took one step closer to Amy staring down at her at eye-level. The black hedgehog's crimson orbs darkened in hunger and his pupil's dilated as pink flower's beauty was hypnotizing him.
Amy gripped her large bag tighter for protection as she stared wide-eyed, gaping. "Sh-Shadow?" She stuttered, nervously.
The ebony slowly eyed Amy from the neck up.
Very slowly.
Her naked, slender pink neck stood out. Awaiting to be devoured by licking, biting, and nipped to the core.
Both the pink flower's flushed cheek and muzzle was in DIRE need of being caressed and petted.
Beads of old sweat ran down from Amy's forehead to her neck from running earlier, even in the cold. Drenching her pink fur darker making it more appealing and glossy.
Amy's verde spheres glimmered in fascination and fear as she shivered unintentionally by Shadow's intense stare down.
And lastly, her bun that was coming apart with a few strands hanging. Only gave Amy a messy, beautiful appearance in front of the ebony.
The ebony clenched both of his fist into a ball, still maintaining his soft gaze. "So, beautiful." He thought and grimaced lightly, unsure how much longer he can control himself.
Then something happened.
Shadow hissed in sexual stimulation making Amy's muzzle completely turned red as her body heated up from that mating call.
Amy's eye-lids drooped and she displayed a sweet hazy expression, answering his call. She took one step closer to nuzzle underneath Shadow's chin JUST before she stopped herself."What am I doing!?" She questioned herself, face widened in disbelief.
The pink flower ears folded back in sheer embarrassment and after getting turned on herself. "I-I'm goin-g to leave the groceries in the table and take a cold shower I MEAN, just take a shower!" Amy stuttered, giggling her way out of this.
The pink flower stepped aside only to give herself some space to quickly run to the house, holding her already torn brown bag from the bottom making sure the food don't go sprawling out.
Despite how kind of freaked out Amy were, she half-lidded her jade orbs and smiled preciously. "Does Shadow like me or something?" The pink flower would go back and ask Shadow if she wasn't by the door already. Using her free hand, Amy grab hold of the doorknob and twisted it open.
The pink flower began to walk inside the half-lit house. "I thought that unique smirk from last week would be my only problem." She finally thought, shutting the door behind her.
Left behind outside in the cold stood Shadow.
He can't believe he just did that.
He DEFINITELY can't believe Amy almost nuzzled him like that.
Damn.
Shadow placed a hand on top of his quills, displaying a guilty look. "Perhaps I should give Rose her space before I go back inside." He made his word final, dropping his hand back down to his side. He glanced up in the obscurity that was surrounded by stars, wrinkling his face in doubt. "Maybe Rouge is wrong about all this." He thought, narrowing his eyes just before it soften again. "If so, then why do I still desire Rose even more after what she almost did?" The ebony couldn't help the way he felt after everything that just happened.
...
From a distance.
A blue figure stepped out of his hiding spot from behind the tree, witnessing everything that just happened, gaping in shock. "What is Amy doing with Shadow?" Sonic whispered to himself, looking at the very direction where Shadow still remained and where Amy previously stood.
Sonic then displayed his trademark heroic smirk, with his arms crossed. "I'll come back for you, Amy." He promised and turned his heel hoping Shadow don't see him from a distance.
Getting his footing together, the blue blue took off in super-sonic speed, promising to come back for Amy and getting answer's to why she's living with Shadow.
