𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 ❞ ¡! Sonadow

[ repost/revamp from my old account ]

I watched as Sonic stared blankly at the photo on his nightstand. Taking a glance at it, I observed the two figures in the frame. One was a small child, who I assumed was Sonic at a younger age, and a taller hedgehog with silky purple quills and bright blue eyes.

"Faker." I said.

"Hm?"

"Is that your mother?" I asked, watching as his ears flicked swiftly. His eyes softened and almost seemed to be laced in sadness.

"Yeah." He whispered, his eyes beginning to glaze over unconsciously. I decided not to mention it, not wanting to cause any issues.

"She's pretty." I said, casting him a glance. "You have her face."

I watched as Sonic's eyes lit up slightly as he met my gaze. "You think so?" He asked, genuine happiness evident in his tone. I nodded slowly with half lidded eyes. It felt nice to see him smile. But just as quickly as the thought came, I felt sadness stab me straight in the chest.

This was I the first time I had actually seen him happy.
