The Box - Sonadow Fanfiction

Research

Several days had passed since Sonic's request to Tails and he still remained firmly planted in Shadows eerily modern government room. He had taken on the role of caretaker as Shadow lurked behind a locked bedroom door, occasionally knocking and convincing the sullen hedgehog to allow a meal through the door, which would only open enough for the plate then immediately slam closed again, Sonic didn't mind at all, in those moments he would get to catch glimpses of Shadow along with the embarrassment mixed with fear that would sprawl throughout his face whenever he looked towards his lover.
He had tried reasoning with him that all of this was simply out of his control, but the argument against this was that if he can control chaos then there should be no reason he can't control himself, and that was an argument Sonic couldn't find a rebuttal for.
As with anything that can run at the speed of light, Sonic couldn't help but admit he was getting antsy, he tried to divulge himself in tv and video games as this would usually work, but being in such close proximity to Shadow just made him burn on the inside, all he wanted to do was be next to him and be touched by him, but he kept these thoughts to himself as he figured it would upset Shadow, who, after briefly crying into Sonic's arm that day and allowing scans of himself and samples of his blood to be sent to Tails, took to playing Rapunzel in order to "keep Sonic safe."
This was bogus to Sonic as he could, and has, kick Shadows ass any day of the week, and if he hated the blackouts that much he would have done so already, but Shadow was adamant that it affected them both in some way, though in truth he really only had bits of memory from the events and was speaking from a place of shame.
Sonic knew there would be no getting through to Shadow, so he begrudgingly agreed to the terms of his stay where he would not try anything and would pretend he wasn't even there half the time.
However, as with most things, this routine had to come to an end eventually, so when Tails called Sonic just after dinner on the fifth day with a dire, and yet awkward request, Sonic smirked to himself briefly before catching his unruly thoughts and strode innocently over to locked white door he had grown accustomed to, knocking hard enough to catch Shadows attention but slow enough that he didn't sound excited.
"Yeah?" Shadow called through the door.
"Hey- so Tails just called-"
"Did he have good news?!"
Sonic could hear the crashing and banging as Shadow booked it to his door and unlocked it, opening it wide, his chest rising and falling quickly.
The two were nose to nose, the smaller hedgehog had to take a sharp inhale as he looked up, pretending that this wasn't at all what he wanted.
"Uh- well, he needs another sample." Sonic held his hands together and pinched his lips tightly together, watching Shadow closely for a sign of understanding.
"Another? He has my blood already, how has he run through it all?" Shadow tilted his head in wonderment.
Sonic sunk a bit and awkwardly squinted his eyes, "not uh- not blood."
Shadow blinked.
"No." He proceeded to close the door again, but Sonic forced a hand up and didn't allow it.
"You don't exactly get to say 'no' to this."
"Yeah, actually, I can." Shadow attempted to move Sonic's hand, jumping slightly as a small blue spark flickered from it.
"No, you don't!"
Shadow looked at the blue eyes and saw they were glowing with anger.
"Do you really expect me to sit in here while you mope away all day? While you close a door in my face constantly?"
Shadow wasn't ever one to respond to another's anger in a mature, calm way and this time was no different, "calm down hedgehog, we've been over this." He smiled jerkishly and grabbed Sonic's hand off the door, "you know damn well I have to stay away from you."
"Why?!" Sonic's voice was raised, and he took the hand Shadow had moved and used it to push the black shoulder of his.. opponent?
Shadow was surprised by this and it reflected on his face only for a fraction of time before he reacted and pushed Sonic's shoulder as well.
Neither said a word as they started to tussle, pushing each other back and forth, each harder than the last until Sonic's frustration had bubbled so much he, without realizing it, had pushed Shadow hard enough to send him further into the bedroom against the wall across from the door.
"The fuck?!" Shadow grunted.
"Everyone, even you, says I need to stay away. Says I can't do this or that because this or that could happen!" He was gesturing wildly around to invisible words, "I'm tired of it! You are so scared of hurting me now that you would rather never see me again, but all these years of you beating me up and kicking my blue ass and you fucking think I can't handle it?!"
Shadow blinked, realizing he needed to allow Sonic to vent and assessing the situation as- fragile, watching Sonic slowly trail towards him.
"Guess what?! I can! I can take it! Nothing you could ever do to me would be something I can't handle. I've been burned, lost my power, sent through buildings by Knuckles and chased around by AMY and YOU THINK I CAN'T HANDLE IT?!"
Sonic was very close now and Shadow decided it was his turn, anger had turned to a drop in his heart, "I don't think that at all," he pointed at himself, "I can't handle it."
Sonic stared, taken aback by this display but saying nothing.
"Sonic, I don't remember ever feeling this way. Ever. I didn't think for the longest time I even could-" he swallowed a lump in his throat, "and it wasn't just that- serum Eggman sent through us, it was before that. For the longest time I would see you and wonder, but not know what I was feeling." He scanned to make sure Sonic didn't think he was being weird, as vulnerability was unbeknownst to him, "so I'm scared. I'm scared I will hurt you, I'm scared of going blank, I don't know anything when I come to, all I see is you all battered and torn up and I wonder, who did that? Even though I know it's me." He blinked very lightly so the tears wouldn't start to roll down his cheeks, "and now that it's grown into something where someone else could get hurt, I just.." he trailed off and looked down.
"What was it like? When you went blank with that trainee?" Sonic broke the silence and attempted to distract his lover.
"Terrifying. Like something was eating me whole."
"And you don't want that monster to hurt me?"
"Not ever."
Sonic stepped forward and grabbed Shadow, forcing him into a deep hug that Shadow breathed into, calming instantly.
"Then, I need you to give me that sample. I don't even need to be here."
"But I-"
"That is how we help you, Tails needs it. He can't do anything else without it."
Shadow smiled and placed a hand on Sonic's face as they pulled away from each other.
"No," he began, "no I meant- but I want you here. This hasn't been easy on me either knowing you've been right out that door the whole time."
Sonic pressed his forehead to Shadows, "if you go blank, I'll get away. Lord knows I'm faster than you anyway."
They both chuckled, agreeing without words that this is the perfect moment to share in a passionate kiss, one long overdue for both of them. It was long, connecting them as their hearts simultaneously began to synchronize. They were finally on the same page about something.
The two shared in this bliss, pushing their bodies close together and sinking to the floor, Sonic resting with his knees on either side of Shadows lap, as the dark hedgehogs back was pressed to the wall. He caressed Sonic's shoulders and glided his fingers like a feather over the blue neck and down the spine, which caused a shiver to run through his lover that he could feel dance through himself as well. Neither wanted to let go of this kiss, but Shadow desperately wanted to tease and decided to do so without speaking. He took Sonic's short tail in between his fingers and twisted it in a circular motion, opening his eyes just enough to see Sonic's shut tight as he tried to stifle a moan, but the vibration still rattled his throat.
Shadow played with the tail for a moment, enjoying the steamy reactions, before ultimately releasing it and reaching back between them to finally release the kiss because although Sonic's tongue was sweet, there was so much more he wanted to taste.
Sonic looked down at himself and flushed red, he was aroused at such little touch and saw Shadows dick did not match his own and wasn't hard.
"Not fair.." he mumbled as he gripped Shadows shoulders with both hands.
The black hedgehog used his own forehead to reach under Sonic's chin and lift it so that he was face to face again, as he did not want to stop fondling the small blue body.
"I'm still nervous, but I think you can help me."
Sonic whimpered as Shadows hands made their way to the top of his thighs, "what can I do?"
"Bite me, my neck, hard, like I did to you." There was a determination in his eyes.
Sonic was desperate not to be the only one rock hard and he easily complied, leaning into the furry black neck and chomping down, Shadow grunted."Harder." He demanded.
Sonic was usually the one getting bit, so he took his sweet time and slowly but surely sank his teeth through skin and felt a warm, metallic liquid seep into his mouth, he pulled away immediately to observe Shadow and see if he was okay.
Shadow was breathing heavily and had squeezed Sonic's thighs so hard his claws were nearly digging into them.
Sonic then looked down to see success, he sighed happily and that bizarre embarrassment that came with being the only one with a boner subsided.
He licked his lips from the blood and pushed himself closer, body heat was filling the room even with the door wide open.
"Fuck, the things you do to me." Shadow breathed as he put his hands on the underside of the thighs and lifted himself and Sonic up in one fluid motion, taking a few hurried steps to the bed and dropping Sonic flat on his back as he still stood at the edge.
"I've missed you," Sonic whispered loud enough for his lover to hear, "all of you." He lifted his knee enough to have it graze Shadows cock, and this seemed enough to finally get Shadow into action.
He climbed between Sonic's legs and hoisted him further up the bed, looking down briefly to line his cock with the dripping wet hole. He had wanted to suck it, but now only wanted to be face to face at all times, staring at and kissing his former enemy.
Both let out loud gasps as they connected, allowing themselves to adjust comfortably before Shadow began to thrust quickly. Sonic wrapped his arms around him and was moaning jovially, loving every feeling he had in this moment, from feeling his own cock jump up and down and slap against his stomach or be pressed still between them, to feeling Shadows balls bounce back and forth as he dug deep into him, he had missed this so very much, missed the closeness and the passion, missed the pleasure.
And he knew Shadow had to, he wasn't even bothering to catch his own saliva as his drool dripped around Sonic's open mouth, just smiled thirstily when his partner opened his lips wider to catch every drop.
Just then, Shadow slowed down, and his smiled disappeared.
He looked away from and back to Sonic, worry overcoming him, both knew what this meant.
Sonic let go of his back and gripped his cheeks, pushing their heads together, "no, stay with me." He begged, Shadow thrusted a bit more and barred his teeth.
"Stay with me, stay with me." Sonic stared into the red eyes and watched them go in and out of focus.
"Stay with me, don't stop, don't stop."
Shadow continued to fuck him, seemingly fighting this feeling that was like a a pair of beastly jaws kidnapping him.
He spoke through it, exasperated and out of breath, "I'll stay, stay with you." He didn't allow his eyes to look away from Sonic, he focused only on him and not at the gnawing in his mind.
"Yeah," Sonic kissed his forehead, "stay, stay here. Stay with me, I love you."
Shadow forced himself to move his hips harder and faster, as though he was running away from the monster, engulfing his senses into Sonic and only Sonic, listening to the moans, feeling the tight hole, smelling his sweat, tasting his tongue, and as swiftly as it came, the feeling had gone.
"I love you, I'll stay with you forever." Shadow said between locked lips.
Something about this caused Sonic to scream and jerk, cum releasing from his member as he let his body relax and feel this missed pleasure, and Shadow, like usual, was in quick pursuit behind him, pulling out of his lover and stroking himself so that his own semen mixed with Sonic's.
They breathed in unison, eyes having never left each other.
Then Sonic did what he does best and spoke, "I don't think we can give this to Tails."
They both laughed.
