I'm In Love With a Killer ~ Sonadow

Chapter 34 |Family, Love, and Smiles|

|Shadow's.POV|

I wrapped his red scarf around his neck and tucked him into bed while I was rubbing his back. He's so tired after losing all that blood, he'll need to eat something soon. When he wakes up of course, then again I'm too afraid to go down there and suddenly have his siblings walk into the house unsuspectingly. I don't wanna kill them, but I also don't want us to go back to that facility. My ears perk up when I heard the front door being unlocked. Either a burglar is here or his siblings are home. I quickly grabbed the jar of pills and slid them under the bed. I scooped Sonic up while wrapping him in a blanket and hid in the closet. I tried not to make too much noise, but I panicked when I heard them walking upstairs. As I sat in the closet, holding Sonic close.

|Normal.POV|

Sonia and Manic walked into the room while holding their jackets and looking down. "At least we know that he's alive", Sonia said. "He goes missing, they find him, and now he's missing again", Manic replied, sitting on the edge of the bed. "And then our mother...", Sonia teared up. Manic looked down and covered his face in sadness.

Meanwhile, Shadow stood by and watched them suffering from the holding back of tears. He even looked down at Sonic, whose smile was hiding his frown from underneath. He sat back and stared at his sleeping face, after realizing that this whole image that he tried to paint for Sonic, wasn't working out like he thought.

|Shadow's.POV|

His smile is beautiful. His personality is beautiful. His eyes were beautiful. And his cry was beautiful. I slid my fingers on his stitches and cried. I hated that I wasn't gonna see this through to the end. His family misses him, but I'll miss him even more than that after this. I gave his forehead a small kiss before I looked back to see that his siblings were gone. The second that they closed the room door, I got up and left closet, walking to the bed. I placed Sonic back on the bed and laid right next to him. I happily played with his scarf and watched him as he slept. He looked peaceful and happy, haven't seen that in a long time. I remembered the day he came over to my house, it was very pleasant. I think I changed a lot more and became a bit of a different person after having him over. I remember that fun game of hide and seek, that sure was a thrill, especially after he found out who I was and what I've done. Then there was that happy game, telling him to keep a smile. And I'll never forget that night when he was given a stitched smile from me. That beautiful smile that made him so much more appealing to me. The reactions he had given to his friends dying in front of him were priceless. Then there was the night where he had become crazy because of me. I lightly chuckle as I looked at his face, he was almost really smiling. I reached down and held his hand for a little more comfort. He was soft and precious, and he only became so fucked up because of what I had done to him. I was both proud and ashamed that he was mine. If I wasn't at the edge of insanity, then we could've probably worked it out and maybe could've been together for real. Maybe he'd actually be willing to go out on dates like a normal couple. Or even tell me that he loves me willingly, and smile without the need for stitches. His mother would still be alive and his family wouldn't be upset like they are now. He'd always be happy and I'd finally get to see him smile for real.

I felt him shift in his sleep, and suddenly his eyes opened after spending all this time dreaming. "Hi there lover", I said and let go of his hand. "Hi love", he smiled and yawned, but quickly hissed in pain after feeling himself pulling at his stitches After hearing that, I confirmed that he was in his crazy state of mind. "How did you sleep?", I asked. "My face...and my legs really hurt...ouch", he groaned. I lightly chuckled and played with one of his quills. "I'm sorry about that", I said and nuzzled his cheek. He gave a small giggle and I quickly put my finger over his mouth. "Hush love", I whispered. He questioned it and tilted his head. "If you're wondering, this place actually is where you lived. And outside the bedroom door is your brother and sister", I said. He smiled and lightly started bouncing in place. "Can I meet them?", he happily replied. I frowned and lightly cried after he said that. The way he said it, so excited to wanna meet them, even though deep down he already has. This was just getting even more sad to witness. My heart shattered when I saw his eyes that were full of hope. "No..", I said. He gave me a small frown and twitched from the pain of moving his stitches. "I'm so... So... Sorry love... But they wouldn't like you like this", I said and cried a small tear. I heard him start to cry as well, and the room was filled with light sniffles and whining. "I'm so sorry love... But they can't see you like this, not after what I've done to you", I said and pressed our heads together. "But I love you, I don't care how much you hurt me, I always want to be with you", he said and held my hand. "I know you do, and it's not and never was your fault. It's mine", I told him. He squeezed my hand and put two fingers on the ends of my lips and lightly pushed them up, replicating a smile. "Please don't be sad Shadow.... Please smile... For me", he whimpered. My vision was getting blurry from the tears, and his shaky voice was making the emotions inside a lot worse. "We'll have to let go soon", I told him. He broke down and buried his face in a pillow. I lightly started rubbing his back again, and I gently started to sooth him.

|Corrupted Sonic's.POV|

Minutes of crying, I sat up and hugged him tight. He hugged me back and I felt him give me a kiss on my head. "You know Sonic... There is a way out of this", he said and pulled out the little knife that he had in his pocket. I gasped at the thought and looked at him. "You're not... Saying that we should-- No we can't", I whimpered. He sighed and hugged me again. "We're inseparable... You know that", he told me. "I'll see you on the other side, where we can be together forever", he said and kissed my hand. "It won't hurt a bit love", he said and kissed me. We both had tears streaming down our eyes. I've never seen him look so sad in my life, my heart felt like it was hurting with every heartbeat. I closed my eyes and hugged him again. "I'm gonna miss you Shadow", I cried in his chest. I felt him shake and hold me tightly. This was really happening, no hallucinations or dreams.

"I love you..", he whispered back at me.
