Brave Hearted Heroes

You Remind Me Of The Good Times.

*WARNING TO YOU ALL RIGHT NOW, THERE WILL BE A SEXUAL BIT SO BE WARNED.*

Sonic pulled away slowly from Shadow's lips and looked into his eyes, scared in case Shadow freaked out. But he didn't, he just blushed and stared at Sonic.

"Shadow...please don't get mad-" Sonic was cut off with Shadow giving him a soft, sweet peck on the side of Sonic's lips, making Sonic quickly be quiet with the shock.

"Sonic. Do I seem mad? If I was mad about this then I would have chaos speared you in the chest." Shadow whispered and stroked Sonic's top quill, getting a clump of bubbles off.

"Shadow...why did you kiss me when I'm nothing but a faker and annoyance to you?" Sonic asked, confused as he fumbled with his hands nervously. Shadow wasn't the politest or the stupidest hedgehog in the world but he was clueless of love, even when it was right in his face. Shadow just shook his head and sighed softly.

"Since I have met you Sonic The Hedgehog, I have always came off as...harsh. I want to apologise for that, the truth is I liked having you around because I had a challenge. Then I realised I like you more." Shadow sighed too, placing his hands over Sonic's as he shrugged sadly.

"Why didn't you just become friends with me then? You had plenty of opportunities." Sonic spoked quickly the last part, not wanting to offend Shadow. After all, they had just kissed. Sonic wanted to feel more of Shadow's lips on his own.

"I work for Eggman. The grandson to my creator, Gerald Robotnik. I felt like I owed him something, although I'm not sure how but he just uses me. What choice do I have? Anyway let's move on." Shadow mumbled, looking up at Sonic who was still holding on to Shadow's soft hands. This side to Shadow, made Sonic's heart race so fast. Simply because Shadow was never the one to open up to people. Could this be the start of something? Sonic started to shiver as the once warm water got colder. Shadow shook his head in a childish manner and got out of the water, grabbing a towel and wrapping it round himself and then opening a towel for Sonic.

Sonic smiled, relieved he was allowed out of the water and sped out of the bath and into the warm towel and in the arms of his rival.

"Thanks Shads. I was freezing." Sonic chuckled and followed Shadow to his room, the smell of fresh paint still in the air.

"Did you just call me Shads?" Shadow said sternly and turned to Sonic, backing him up against the wall with either hands. Sonic began to tremble, not looking into Shadow's eyes. He waited for Shadow to freak out but again...nothing bad happened.

"Because Sonic Hedgehog, I think that's a nickname that I could get used too. But only for you." Shadow purred, nuzzling into Sonic's cheek with his own.

"Is that so? Well then, 'Shads' it is." Sonic purred back, wrapping his arms just under Shadow's black, shiny quills. Sonic looked into Shadow's eyes and seen nothing like it before. They were soft looking instead of hard and stern all the time. It was like Shadow had dropped everything off his shoulders.

"Can I kiss you again?" Shadow asked, looking back in to the blue hedgehog's green emerald eyes. Sonic nodded very softly and brought Shadow's face closer, their lips connecting together. Shadow's hands slowly slid up Sonic's chest and cupped his cheeks, bringing the shy hedgehog closer. Their lips tangled in with each other as Sonic placed his hands over Shadow's, pulling them down his chest and using his own to bury into Shadow's soft, chest fur. A soft noise escaped Shadow's mouth as he massaged Sonic's chest, lips never leaving each other's.
