I came home a day after Rouge's party. The house was clean and empty.

"So, you're finally back," Rouge walked out in her nightgown.

"Put some clothes on woman," I sighed.

"Well I'm sorry if I'm not sexy enough for you. I was planning to surprise my boyfriend when he came back from shopping," she said.

"Your. What," I felt like growling at her.

"You left, I shared wonderful kisses with our little Sonic," she gave me a smirk of confidence.

"So, you took advantage of him. You're drunk ass pinned him down and kissed him as he said no. Now you're calling him your boyfriend," I growled.

"Saw the security photage did You? Not bad, and you're total obsessed with him."

"Shut it bat," I snapped.

"A-am I i-interrupting s-something?" Sonic was at the door.

"No, nonono sweetie. It's nothing to worry about," she grabbed him.

"R-Rouge! W-why aren't you dressed?!" Sonic's face was completely red.

"Woman will you put Dom fucking clothes on!" I threw my shirt at her.

"You know what, this is sexier," she but it on and pulled off her nightie from underneath.

"I hate you," I growled.

"I'm gonna put the groceries away," I noticed the amount of bags he had, all of them seemed to be straining his hand.

"My cutie," Rouge was smothering him.

"Shadow?" He looked at me as I took his bags. They were heavy as two cartons of milk each.

"You carried these all they way home?" I asked.

"Y-yeah... how else would I carry them?" He answered.

"Chais," Rouge picked up a bag, "Your arms don't hurt do they?"

"N-No, not at all. I'm just gonna put this way before it turns warm," Sonic took the bags back, removed his shoes and went straight to the kitchen.

"Sonic, you okay?" I asked quietly as Rouge fixed her hair in the mirror.

"Yeah... yeah I'm fine. I'm just still tired from the party," I say the bags under his eyes, "shoot," he dropped the milk. I got a towel and picked it up for him, "You really shouldn't be the one cleaning. I'm sorry you've had to before."

"Sonic, it's fine. Even if you're just here, you need a break too," I started helping him put things away.

"I should start lunch," he picked up a few things after we put it all away.

  He started cooking. Rouge was bugging him a soon as he started cooking.

"Sonic, what are you making?" She asked.

"I was thinking fried rice. Would you like something else?" He stopped washing the vegetables.

"Rice is fine, I'll snack on you after," she sat down of the sofa.

  I kept an eye on Sonic as he kept cooking. Chopping the vegetables, and starting the water for rice. He was fidgety and nervous today. Something happened to him... Is it because of Rouge's kiss?

---

  Lunch was done and Sonic was cleaning. He cleaned, cleaned, cleaned, and cleaned. Rouge went to the bathroom, I took the chance to talk to him.

"Hey," pulled him of the ground from scrubbing the floor, "what's going on with you? You're not usually this fidgety."

"It's nothing," he pulled away.

"That's it."

"Shadow! Put me down!" I tossed him over my shoulder.

"Not until you talk," I sat him on his bed and pulled up a chair to block the door, "Was it something at the party?"

"... no, someone just freaked me out while shopping today. If it wasn't for Silver I might have been..." he stopped talking.

"They didn't touch you did they?!" I didn't notice I lept to his side's to check him, "I swear of they-"

"They didn't touch me. Silver got to them first," he said.

"Who's Silver?" I asked.

"Oh, he's a cashier at the market. We've been friends for a while now. Three years I think."

"So long as your safe," I rubbed behind his ears a bit, "feeling better?"

"Yeah, much..." he yawned, "now."

"Take a nap," I pulled the apron off him, "I take care of the cleaning."

"No, Shadow, please. I can't have you doing anymore for me. It's not right when you work so hard at work," he stated.

"You're too humble," I got up.

"... T-thank you..." he blushed.

"Do you need anything?" I asked him.

"No I'm alright."

"So long as you're alright."

  He walked out before me, holding the door. The second he did, he started cleaning again. He looked like his happy usual self again.

"You talked to him," Rouge was smiling.

"So," I rolled my eyes.

"You love him."

"Shut up."

"I'm keeping him for myself."

"I doubt that."

"Think you're better?"

"I know I am."

"We'll see."

"Have fun staying single."

"Jackass."

"Bimbo bitch."
