--

Shadow perked his ears and lifted his head at the slight sound of a groan from Sonic, hoping that meant his permanent and graceful return to the living. "Nngh.."

"You're awake." Shadow breathed, almost not believing it.

"Barely." Sonic croaked, his voice hoarse and weak. Shadow helped him sit up and drink some water. "Everything hurts."

Shadow set the glass down when the other was done with it. "I'll bet. It was quite a fall you took."

"Mm." Sonic turned his head, gently pawing at his face with ungloved hands. "Why am I blindfolded?"

--

After Sonic was blinded during Eggman's last attack, Shadow stayed behind to help him. Faced with the crushing reality that his crush might never see again, he tried his hardest to find solutions and fixes for Sonic's damaged vision. Slowly, Shadow finds his heart calling him to be with Sonic, to love and hold and cherish him.

But Sonic doesn't feel the same, right?
