The next day, you decided to make yourself some breakfast. After you made yourself breakfast, there was a knock at the door. You got up and walked to the door. You looked through the peep-hole, and turned wide-eyed. It was Shadow. The hedgehog that saved you the other day. "What the? What is he doing here?" You ask yourself. You opened the door, and looked at him. "Oh...hi Shadow," you say. "Hey __________," Shadow said with a smirk. "What are you doing here?" You ask. "Well you see. After I met you the other day, I decided that I wanted to come over and meet you." He then said, "And maybe ask you...if you want to...maybe hang out with me today." You turned wide-eyed, but said, "Oh...sure." You then started walking along with Shadow. "So...your name is Shadow?" You ask, trying to get some conversation. "Yes. Don't wear it out," he said. "Why do you keep pausing every time you talk to me?" Shadow asked. "I don't know. I feel this way with a lot of new people I meet," you say. "Well can't you trust me?" Shadow asked. I mean, I did save your life. It's not like I wanna hurt you." "True," you say. "But let's talk more about you. Why did you want to kill yourself?" Shadow asked. You paused for a moment, but you thought there was no way on getting out of it. You then said, "I...I wanted to kill myself because...my boyfriend broke up with me...." You then started to tear up. "And...I thought he was the one for me.... After that, I felt so sad, I wanted to kill myself." Shadow gave you a confused look. "That's it? Just because a guy broke up with you? That's stupid! You can find another guy!" You then looked away from him. A few seconds later, Shadow said, "Sorry. I didn't mean to yell at you." He then touched your hand. You wanted to pull it away from him, but when you felt his hand, you decided to hang on to it. "It's okay," you say. "I know it was stupid of me to do that. I should never have done it in the first place." "Although, if you have never done that, we would never have met," Shadow said. You looked in his red eyes. "Shadow...," You say. "Yes?" He asked. You then held both his hands. "Thank you for saving my life. No one's ever done something like that for me before." "Well...maybe it's because...guys don't understand like I do.... Maybe it's because they're pathetic." "Yeah...maybe they are." You looked down at his hands. Shadow looked up at you. "Has...anyone ever told you that...," Shadow began, but then stopped. "I what?" You ask. "That...you look..._____," he muffled. "I look what?" You ask again, leaning forward to him. "You look...beautiful...." Both you and Shadow blushed deep red, but then you gave him a peck on the cheek and said, "Thank you. And you look very handsome." There was then butterflies flying inside your stomach. You have never felt this way with anyone before. Not even from any of your boyfriends. Maybe it was because there was something about Shadow you never knew about. After you gave him the peck, he blushed really red and looked away, hiding his blush. You slightly giggled at him as you two kept walking together.
