Out of the Slump~Shadamy

What do you want to know?

Shadows Pov

"I had a great time tonight Shadow. " Amy says as we both lay on our backs gazing up at the sky, from the hillside.

" I did too." I reply.

"It's a shame that we missed the sunset but it was worth it."

"There's always another day,"

She finally turns to look at me. We've been talking but ever since that awkward moment on the Ferris wheel, she hasn't been acting quite like herself. Avoiding my gaze, and stuttering a lot. She just started acting normal now that we got here.

"There is," She says, giving me a strange look.

"What's up with that face?"

She immediately looks away. That confuses me a bit. Is she uncomfortable around me or something?

"Rose, are you ok?"

"I was j-just thinking..."

"About?"

"The Ferris wheel..." she mutters and even though it's dark outside I just know that she's blushing.

"You really don't have to worry about that, it didn't bother me." I don't get why she's so embarrassed. The two of us have been through far more uncomfortable situations.

She keeps facing towards the sky, once again trying to avoid my gaze.

"Rose you..."

"I loved Sonic!"

Ok. Now I have no idea what to say.

"For so long... it was always him. I thought that one day he would see me the way I saw him and we would be happy together."

For some reason, I felt my body tense up at her confession.

"I know that I said this many times before..."

 I have no idea what to say and she is fidgeting nervously. But suddenly she sat up.

"WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY IS THANK YOU!"

"Rose there's no need to-"

"Yes, there is, you've done so much. You saved me from myself and stayed by me through this all. But I know nothing about you. I don't know anything, and I've never asked."

"Well, it's not like I've told you anything either." I scratch the back of my head. This is the first time in a long time, that someone's wanted to know anything about me. Rouge already knew everything there was to know so she never had to ask.

"I'm ashamed that I've let our relationship get this way. I've been treating you the way that people have treated me. Always wanting me to be there for them but would never do the same for me. I want that to change Shadow. I want to be there for you too. I want to know more about you!" She didn't take her eyes off mine the whole time she spoke. She was serious.

If it was anyone else I would tell them to shut up and leave me alone. But it seems like with Amy, I'm always saying and doing things I thought I would never do. A few months back I wouldn't be here. This late at night I'd be in my house reading a book or something. I would never go to an amusement park, go out of my way to help someone else, or offer to stay by their side. But it's Amy. And just because it's Amy I say,

"Ok Rose, then what do you want to know first?"
