hanahaki (sonadow)

.

he sighed as he sat down. albeit his current mood on a certain someone everything else seemed to be dandy for said hedgehog.

to him it would've another night alone sight seeing the stars far away from society, the tranquility overall easing away everything in his surroundings. though tonight was different. the faint sound of the fair could be heard in the far distance.

sounds of children screaming in glee, old time fair music, the soft creak of
roller coasters.

usually he wouldn't consider being this close to people, let alone have it in sight, but tonight was a different occasion, he was thinking.

thinking about a certain someone and a certain offer..

"so this is were you decided to run off too huh?"

shadow didn't pay the person any mind and shifted slightly. he hoped this would discourage the unannounced guest in hopes of making them leave.

he really hoped that was the case, he wasn't in the mood.

wrong.

there was silence for awhile but eventually footsteps could be heard and later on came the sound of someone taking a seat on the ground next to him. shadow groaned in displeasure, though his expression didn't show that much.

he scooted away to avoid contact and scoffed. "oh c'mon shadz, don't be like that!" the voice dragged out with a fake pout. shadow didn't give much as a meer glance, it seemed the other noticed.

his laugh died down and after awhile shadow could feel a pair of eyes on him. "okay im guessing you want to know why im here-" they started and let out a dry laugh. "i know you said no to the fair.. so I figured i'd going looking for you. and before you say anything i know you said leave you alone blah blah blah.. but i just wanted to know why you said no..? you don't gotta answer i was just wondering."

"faker?"

"uh-huh?"

"has anyone ever told you that you talk a lot?" shadow said holding back a small snort.

"well tails said i-" sonic, the unwanted guest started. shadow sighed. "it was a rhetorical question faker." it took awhile to process but when he did sonic let out a small 'ohh'.

"wait a minute...hey! did you just try changing the subject?" so maybe shadow wasn't so slick after all. his head was all over the place which was very much unlike him, the uneasiness was making him uncomfortable.

"no." was all he responded with to which sonic elbowed him and laughed. since when did he get so close? why was he laughing?

"oh you totally did!" sonic laughed some more and shadow couldn't help but feel the slightest bit of flustered and irritated at the same time. sonic soon caught on after his fit of laughter and cocked his head in confusin.

"okay my bad, my bad. if you don't have a specific reason that's valid i guess.. but why choose this spot of all places?"

"so many questions faker jeez.. did you finally annoy your scrawny little friends to the point where they've left you've and have come to bother me?" shadow spat and gave a proud little smirk.

sonic felt his stomach twist, it was rare for him to see any emotion from shadow so right now he was in awe. it wasn't much obviously but he couldn't help but find it attractive in a way.

he held back a laugh and responded. "nah. i guess i just wanted to see you again, you are one of my friends ya know? even if i kinda talk a lot and you just listen."

shadow eyed him before rolling his eyes. "we're rivals, don't forget our proper formalities moron. i am not your friend."

he proceeded to cross his arms and could feel those emeralds on him again. "so you say. i kinda thought we we're past this whole emo phase but i guess someone's having a hard time moving on.~" sonic teased playfully.
