It all started when Amy and Shadow were on a mission with the Freedom Fighter's to stop Eggman once again. Except, this time, they somehow managed to trap themselves in a cave.
~Flashback~
"Shadow, I don't think this cave is what we're looking for..." Amy sighed.
"Hmph. I know what I'm doing."
As if on que, a clutter of boulders came tumbling down onto the exit, trapping the pink hedgehog with Shadow.
"Oh no! What are we going to do?!" Amy cried, already cold from the cave.
"I have a chaos emerald, idiot." Shadow grunted, reaching into his quills. His eyes widened when he realized there was nothing but empty space.
"Really? Who's the idiot now?" Amy grinned smugly.
"Dammit. Faker must've took my chaos emerald for the mission." Shadow gazed at the exit and sighed.
"Now what are we going to do? It's freezing in here!" Amy shivered as she folded her arms. Shadow looked at her, deep in thought.
"There's no reception here. So I can't call the others. We'll have to camp out until they figure out where we went." Shadow glanced at his watch in disappointment. But it didn't compare to Amy's.
"Well, c-can we at least make a fire?" Amy shivered.
"Do you see any wood in here, Rose?" Amy could just see the sarcasm in his voice.
"Sh-shut up! How are you n-not cold?"
"I'm the Ultimate Lifeform. I do not get cold." Shadow reminded the freezing pink rose, who rolled her eyes in response.
"Come here." Shadow sighed, Amy raised a brow wondering what he could possibly want.
Amy shuffled over towards the now, sitting hedgehog. She stood above him, awaiting what to be told next.
"Sit."
Amy sat down next to him, feeling even colder than before. The ground was beyond freezing and she wondered how this would possible make her feel better.
It didn't click until she felt warm arms wrap around her shivering body. Slowly, Shadow brought her down onto the floor and cuddled her. Amy found comfort in his fluffy chest and nuzzled into it. Shadow reacted by clutching her tighter and bringing her closer to him. His legs wrapped around the rose and Amy absorbed his warmth.
"Thank you." Murmured Amy.
"Hmph."
They stayed like that for the next 12 hours, asleep. It wasn't until the next day that Rouge broke in and helped the two out.
Shadow would be lying if he said he didn't enjoy their cuddling session.
~End of Flashback~
Everything was back to normal, they both parted ways. Amy went alongside Sonic and Shadow went off on his own. It wasn't until the next night that Shadow went through withdrawal and couldn't sleep.
Shadow teleported into Amy's room and immediately went under the covers with her. He smoothly wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into his chest, resting his chin on her head. Amy shuffled a bit until she relaxed into the chest fur.
Unaware that she wasn't snuggling into a pillow.
Thankfully, Shadow was able to wake up before Amy did and quietly teleported out of her room before she noticed. But once she did wake up, she couldn't help but feel she was missing something...
