Sonic was always the light - the unshakable, untouchable hero. But beneath the speed and the smile, he was breaking. Years of buried trauma, unspoken hurt, and Shadow's relentless words finally push him to vanish in silence, leaving the team behind.
When he returns, he's different. Quieter. Precise. Smiling too widely and speaking only when necessary. He deflects every question, absorbs every insult, and lives like he's trying to be what everyone wants - even if it's killing him inside.
Shadow notices first. And slowly, painfully, he realizes the damage his own words carved into someone already drowning.
As missions cease and the world quiets, the team watches Sonic spiral deeper - refusing food, hurting in silence, breaking piece by piece. But through quiet gestures, sleepless nights, and tender moments in borrowed hoodies, Sonic begins to heal - not by erasing the pain, but by letting someone stay with him through it.
A lemon filled Sonadow where Sonic tricks shadow into doing something *cough* Kinky *cough* with him and it all starts off as a joke, at least for Shadow it does.
Sonic= Seme. Shadow = Uke
No M-preg cause I just don't like it personally.
