The Ruby Eyes of Affection

Rob's reunion

 Sonic awoke in an unfamiliar place. Whoever's bedroom this was had a great sense of style. The morning sun bounced off bamboo wood flooring as everything was beautiful and warm. The room was relatively small but with everything organized and placed in very specific places, it looked much bigger then it really was. In the right corner of the room was a long desk with sheets of paper neatly placed in a pile and a rather sleek looking laptop which happened to be blinking green. The cobalt hedgehog desperately wanted to make the flashing stop so he could continue his wonderful snoozing but felt way too comfortable under the especially warm sheets to get out of bed. He stretched a little not too concerned where he was until he glanced to his right. A skinny black furred hedgehog with red highlights lied on the other side of the bed slowly breathing in and out with his body practically wrapped up in a ball. Sonic giggled a little as he was reminded of last evening. He decided to take a minute to appreciate the other's adorable sleeping position.

(I know the moment he wakes up, I'm going to be destroyed. But man, I would never change yesterday night for anything.) He thought as he started to gently slide his fingers through the ebony hedgehog's quills.

Shadow reacted by turning towards the azure hedgehog, purring softly in his sleep. At one point, he even reached out his arm attempting to grab the person creating such incredible comfort. It was so odd even though he was completely asleep, his body could sense when the sapphire hedgehog was near.

"Ah, so you do like it, you little deceiver. Can't fool me. I can always see through that phony act." Sonic whispered quietly as to not disturb the wonderful slumber of hisrival.

The azure hedgehog gently nuzzled his face against the others while continuing to stroke his quills.

"It's amazing someone supposedly so dark and evil can sleep so gracefully. I wonder how you can train your body to be that perfect. I guess if you're as obsessive compulsive as Shadow, you can train yourself to do almost anything. It's no wonder he's one of the most talented musicians on Mobius." He once again spoke softly trying not to wake him as affection poured into every word.

But this time the charcoal hedgehog replied with a flicker of his ear and Sonic realized he had talked just a bit too loud. He prepared himself for the beating of a life time by burying his body deep under the covers in fear.

Shadow's ruby eyes slowly opened with the irises being back to a normal size. He blinked a few times before sitting up and investigating the situation.

(Okay... What the hell happened last night, I feel like absolute crap. Did I go out drinking again?) He contemplated as he looked around the room and finally to his left, shocked to see a blue fur ball hiding underneath the blankets.

"Sonic, may I ask what the hell you're doing. Actually, no. Let me rephrase that. WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN MY BED?!" He shouted at the azure hedgehog in utter shock and disgust before quickly pulling the sheets off and throwing them to the ground leaving Sonic completely vulnerable to any attacks.

"You don't remember anything?" Sonic replied softly and carefully as he scooted away from the angry eyes of the charmingly hazardous hedgehog.

"OBVIOUSLY NOT! We didn't do anything did we?!" The ebony hedgehog asked with slight embarrassment hoping the kid's virginity was still intact.

"No no. You fell asleep and I took you to bed. Then I realized I was tired and because you looked so soft and appealing I decided to slip into your bed while you were snoozing." Sonic responded with his hand resting behind his head as he shyly nodded trying to make it look like he wasn't a creepy pervert.
