I'm In Love With a Killer ~ Sonadow

Chapter 25 |Tasty Treats|

|Shadow's.POV|

The last thing I remember was sleeping on the couch. It seemed pretty comfy and I had felt pretty tired from a long day. I open my eyes in total darkness and see absolutely nothing. But I feel a warm and comforting sensation of being held. My heart quickly started beating when I realized that it was Sonic. My head was gently resting over his shoulder as he held me tight. One of his hands held around my waist, while the other was gently petting my quills. "Finally...you're awake." he said still petting my quills. This was strange because I thought he'd be tired and fall asleep as well."Don't worry love, I won't let anything hurt you," he says with a sinister voice. "They can't ever take you away from me." he continued.

"No one will ever touch you." he began holding me tighter.

"Why are you so worried about me?" I turned away. "Because they're watching." He blankly states. A shiver went down my spine. "Who's watching?" I asked. He looked at me and smiled. "I made you a cake." he ignored my question. He held my hand and lifted me off the couch, leading me to the kitchen. There, he showed me a small adorable cake with simple vanilla frosting and a couple of sprinkles. "I made it when you were sleeping." he smiles. I quickly realized that the house smelled like something sweet was being made in the kitchen. He grabbed the knife that he used to frost the cake and cut me a slice. Upon receiving the cake, I quickly realized that inside was a simple vanilla cake with our recent kill's insides being inside the cake. It wasn't cannibalism, but to many would still be eery. I playfully rolled my eyes and mumbled "Of course.." and took my first bite. It tasted like a regular vanilla cake with little chunks of flesh getting stuck between your teeth now and then. I smiled at Sonic and leaned in to kiss him. But weirdly he leaned back, denying my kiss. "Finish your cake, then I'll reward you", he said demandingly. "You put something in this cake huh?" I ask, knowing full well that something was in it. He couldn't help but laugh at the question. He then smiled at me and slowly nodded.

"Is it going to kill me?" I asked him. "No of course not." he says with no emotion.

|Sonic's.POV|

It was filled with poison, not the kind that could kill him of course. I wouldn't want to kill him, it just has a small dosage of poison that will make him go insane. I watched him take another bite, to which I squealed in excitement. He stopped and looked at me weirdly. Then I watched him put two fingers in his mouth, and pull out a piece of glass. "How did that get in there?" I asked myself while I grabbed the glass shard and threw it away. Shadow spit out blood in the sink and hissed at the pain while doing so. "Come here I'm sorry love," I grabbed his cheek and kissed him. He quickly pulled away to spit out more blood.

I'll admit, that looks like it hurts a lot. He washed out his mouth to clear away any blood that remained. Meanwhile, I inspected the cake for any more pieces of glass. I don't know how any glass got down there. Maybe I accidentally broke something and it got in the cake batter. I checked all over the kitchen for any pieces of glass. I soon found myself with absolutely nothing.

When Shadow was finished washing off, he walked towards me. "While I respect the fact that you made me a sweet and delicious cake, I won't forgive the glass part." he wipes his mouth. "I'm sorry Shadow, I swear I didn't know how that got in there," I whined. I was serious, the glass scares me just as much as it would with anyone. But what made me worried even more was the poison taking effect. I hope he took enough bites to fully take in the poison. The plan seemed to be working fine until he said "I'm not risking this," and made his way to the bathroom.

I didn't follow because I knew exactly what he was going to do. He made himself vomit out the rest of my cake. I sat by the table with a cake that had flesh, poison, and somehow glass shards. I picked it up and angrily threw it away. What a waste of my time and his, all ruined because of a glass shard. I sighed and groaned while I sat back on the couch. I heard Shadow return, sitting next to me. I could smell a bit of mint, realizing that he had brushed his teeth after throwing up. I still wasn't going to kiss him though, he'd probably pull away from it for hurting so much. Instead, I gave him a tight squeeze, a hug. "I'm sorry," I pleaded. He gently started petting my quills while I lightly cried in his arms. I begged and begged for forgiveness. But it frustrated me when he wouldn't answer me. "I didn't mean to hurt you," I really didn't. He looked down at me and frowned. "You really wanna make it up to me?" he asked. I nodded and looked up at him. "Remember earlier when you said that someone was watching? What did you mean by that?" he asked.

So strangely, someone was knocking at the door earlier. We never get company at all at our door. I remember looking outside the peephole and seeing around a group of 4 people who didn't seem so nice to me. I heard them muttering something about how they wanted to take us away somewhere. Maybe my mind was playing tricks but you know very well that I didn't open that door. Shadow was asleep on the couch during this time so he wasn't aware of it. If there's one thing I knew it's that they were probably still out there, maybe they were checking out our house and peeking through windows to see if we were here. Oh, the thought alone gives me chills. That's why I went to hold onto Shadow while he was sleeping, I didn't want anyone to separate us for anything.

"Well...earlier... I saw some bad people," I explained. "What kind of people?" he asked again. I opened my mouth to answer but was interrupted by the loud sound of our front door being kicked open. My heart started pounding full of adrenaline. Shadow had also jumped to the sound and the thing that truly almost gave me a heart attack was hearing those police sirens from outside. Loud footsteps approached and you could tell that it was a big group of people. Shadow and I both looked at each other when we realized that this was real and happening. The sound of a police siren scares me already, but to hear it right outside our house was even scarier. Shadow held my hand from the fear of losing me and squeezed it when we felt their guns being pointed at our heads.
