FIVE

__"You're not worth it!"
__"Stop trying!"
__"You'll never be anything!"
__"Go back to Moebius where you belong!"
__"Nobody cares about you!"
__"Everyone hates you!"
__"Everyone wants you dead!"
__"Stop it!" Scourge yelled into the cold dark abyss. The words continued to fill his ears. He sat down where he was and covered his ears. "Shut up! Shut up! SHUT UP!" He looked up when a blue hedgehog with brown hair, green eyes, and wearing a black business suit with white sleeves and a red tie appeared in front of him. Scourge scooted back slowly as he flattened his ears, feeling his heart beating faster. "No! Not you! Go away!"
__The blue hedgehog stayed where he was. He stared into Scourge's eyes. His own eyes were dull. There was no emotion in them. "Why, Sonic?" He whispered. "Why?"
__Scourge hid his face in his knees, keeping his ears covered. "GO AWAY! LEAVE ME ALONE!" He then forced himself to look at the hedgehog. "Why are you here!? There's nothing here!"
__"There was once," The hedgehog continued to whisper. "Not anymore."
__"Please!" Scourge began sobbing. "I just want to forget!"
__"You'll never forget what you've done to me. You'll never forget what you did to your planet."
__"It's not my planet!" Scourge cried. "I don't want it to be!"
__There was finally some gleam in the hedgehog's green eyes. There was anger and regret in those eyes. "What happened to you? You had everything set up the way you wanted. I didn't neglect you for nothing, Sonic."
__"I'm not Sonic!" Scourge continued to sob as he hid his face in his knees again. "Not anymore..."
__"You've grown soft. My own son. Why did you have to change? Now everyone back home wants you dead."
__"That's not my home!"
__"You can't ignore your origin. There will always be people to remind you of what you've done. Do you honestly think anyone expects anything different from you?"
__"Go away," Scourge whispered. "Leave me alone."
__"You're nothing, Sonic," The hedgehog said in an emotionless manner. "There isn't any place where you'd be accepted."

__Scourge woke up sweating intensely. He was lightly panting as he sat up and started rubbing his temples. Even after death, he won't leave me alone. He groaned and looked beside him at Sonic. He was still sleeping. He looked peaceful. Scourge laid down and carefully put his forehead on Sonic's. He breathed in his scent and felt all of his worries drift away. "Hey," He whispered.
__Sonic's eyes slowly opened and he smiled when he realized he was looking at Scourge. "Hi," He whispered back. He then sat up and stretched. "Imma go make breakfast now." He got out of bed and left the bedroom.
__Scourge sat up as well and watched him leave. He sighed and flattened his ears as he looked at his phone on the tiny dresser, which was still plugged in. Scourge grabbed his phone, unplugged it, and started going through it. He went to his messages and started texting Rouge about his dream. He didn't expect her to reply for another hour since it was early, so he decided to go downstairs. 
__Buck had been waiting for Scourge at the bottom of the stairs. He had his tongue out and was wagging his tail as he watched Scourge slowly go down the stairs. He let out a soft bark as he stood up.
__Scourge went to rub Buck's head for a few seconds before he went into the kitchen. He stood next to Sonic and watched him work on the stove. "I know I keep bothering you about this, but will you continue what you were doing yesterday?"
__Sonic didn't look at him. "Maybe next time," He sighed.
__"What do you mean next time?"
__"Don't worry about it."
__Scourge obeyed and he rested his head on Sonic's. "I don't deserve you."
__Sonic snickered as he lightly pushed Scourge off of him. "Boy, don't even." He then continued cooking.
__"You don't like sappy shit?" Scourge asked in confusion. "I thought that was my job."
__Sonic laughed again and he pointed at the couch in the living room. "Go sit, man. Watch your anime while I make breakfast in peace."
__Scourge hugged Sonic and kissed his cheek before he made his way to the couch. After he turned on the T.V., he pulled out his phone and started going through his gallery. While he did, Buck had jumped onto the couch and laid down next to Scourge. Scourge smiled when he found a picture of him and Sonic holding Buck as a small little puppy. He showed Buck the photo and watched him start smelling the phone. "That's you."
__Buck stuck out his tongue and started panting as he looked up at Scourge.
__"Watchu' smile about?" Scourge put the phone down and started rubbing Buck's neck. "You think you look so cute as a lil' pup, huh? Yeah!" He then heard his phone go off and saw that Rouge had texted him back. So soon? He grabbed his phone again and read Rouge's message.
__Are you feeling okay?
__Scourge sighed as he texted her back. I am now. Just caught me by surprise. He perked his ears after Rouge replied.
__Scourge, this is probably a sign. You're not doing too well here. You need to talk to Sonic about this at least.
__Sonic doesn't need to know. He has enough to worry about.
__Oh, because he's a singer? Come on, Scourge! He's your boyfriend. Couples are supposed to listen to each other about their problems.
__Right, 'cause you and Shadow do just that.
__This isn't about me! It's about you! Please, Scourge.
__Scourge looked behind him as Sonic started putting food on the table. He started typing quickly on his phone. Have to go now. We'll talk later. He turned his phone off and went over to the dining table. He hugged Sonic from behind and rubbed his head against Sonic's. 
__Sonic giggled as he pulled away from Scourge. He turned to look at him and his grin turned into a frown. "Is something wrong?"
__Scourge shook his head. "No, just tired."
__Sonic didn't look convinced, but he didn't say anything. He went back to the kitchen and started filling the empty dog bowl with kibble. Buck had immediately ran over and started scarfing down the food as Sonic walked back over to Scourge.
