A Lie

As we stand here to together, I can't help but wonder what it would be like to be loved, in the arms of the person beside me getting looks of love. As I look out at the ocean, I feel no fear consuming me like I usually would being this close to my fear, but when I look over to the other with me I can not help but stare. The wind brushing past the coat of fur and the bunch of quills, how the eyelids are closed, hiding the orbs I just am obsessed to stare at. I can't help but admit I'm sad and happy. I'm happy because I get the chance to even be near them, but I'm sad because I know not even in a million years will they love me back, its just the way its got to be I guess.

I'm in love. Its that easy anyone can see it. I remember the first time we met. Hating me like it was his soul purpose in life, but also not remembering a thing about what happened before Eggman used it to his advantage to obviously try and take over the world. But after myself and my friends, Amy, Tails and Knuckles, helped regain the memories lost, we started to get closer and closer. The more friendly fights we got into, the playful name calling made use closer to being friends.

When I first started to get feelings I thought that it was just a silly crush and it would eventually past but it didn't. The more I thought about it the more I continued to fall, fall into the endless pit never going to find the end. As much as I am going to hate to say this, I am just helplessly in love with the mobian in front of me.

I know that they don't know but every word that my secret love said to me and every name I will be called breaks my heart. Every day after one of these I end up just putting on a mask to cover the real pain I feel. When it gets too much even for me to handle I just end up crying myself to sleep, but even after every word that is said I just can't help but be in love.

As we continue to stand there I see that the mobian is starting to walk off, the legs continue to go in front of the other. The red striped, upturned quills having a slight bounce to them as he walks off. I just stay there, knowing I will just be more trouble.

I feel empty.

Not because he's leaving but to know I will never know what the love between us would feel like. I feel like I should tell someone, maybe my brother? No he's to young. Knuckles? No he will just laugh. Amy's a big no no. then there is Rouge, but she will tell him. I just don't know what to do any more, I'm in a tunnel that has no end. But I will continue to live in the lie that is my life at the moment just to not worry anyone.

But mostly just to keep everyone happy. Including my love. The love that I have had for my black and red rival. Shadow the hedgehog. My name is Sonic the Hedgehog, the hero of Mobius.

And I'm living a lie that I cant get out of.

I hope I did okay. It's my first time writing something like this. I had purposely tried to not say Shadows name till the end, but still tell you at the same time that it is Shadow that I am talking about. Well I hope it was okay.
