Shadow x Amy part 2

Part 2- Sweet dreams

Shadow walked Amy gently up to his apartment door. He pulled his key out of his coat and  unlocked it. She stepped inside finding a small but nice living room. "So..." Amy began after giving herself a quick look around. "Nice place. But... how do you pay for it?"
He set his coat down. "Eggman sends me bribes every month. I think he's trying to get me on his side. But i just take the money"
She gave a small laugh. "So um..." Shadow stepped foward. "I'll just, go get the bed ready."
"Bed?"
"Well ya. I'll sleep on the couch while you take the bed."
Thats so sweet of him. She thought. Shadow. SWEET?! Wow. "Thanks. But uh... you don't have too. It is kinda cold tonight."
He still seemed reluctant to keep his bed. A crazy thought came to her. "Maybe we could... share it?"
His crimson eyes flashed with suprise. Or anger. Amy said in her mind.
"Um..." He kept his head down for a moment but brought it back up. "Sure, I guess. Are you sure?"
"Ya. Its fine." She felt no problem sharing a bed with him for some unknown reason. Just as long as no one finds out and starts a huge gossip. "I'll just go, change in the bathroom." She smiled to him.
He smiled back. "Sure. And I'll go get a extra sheet for you."
She entered his bathroom. His place wasn't anything like she, or Sonic, had expected. For one thing, he didn't live in a trashy bad area with gunshots and partyers like they all imagined. It was a better area nearby where Sonic's scooby gang lives. His apartment wasn't dirty at all. He kept neat and clean, despite the rumors Sonic would have believed. Everyone thinks terribly toward him. But he isn't terrible. He's kind and gentle. He hasn't done anything wrong after that first time we met him. She stared into the mirror. Am I getting feelings for him. Could she really? She already had forgotten about Sonic. What about Shadow?

She had entered the bedroom Where Shadow was laying out his dark blue sheet. It seemed that he had claimed the left side, and she had the right. Amy sat on her side and removed her pants quickly. Embarressed that she could only wear her underwear and top to sleep in next to Shadow. She turned her head to see if he was staring.
But he only smirked. "I'm not just gonna jump on you."
"Oh... ok then." She rubbed her neck and lied down in the bed, hiding her body under the covers.
He turned the light off and got himself into the bed. "Uh... you have enough room?"
"Ya. Plenty." She looked over to him. "Shadow?"
"Hm?"
"Do... you snore?"
"Um..." He paused. "I don't really know."
"Oh. Well... thank you anyway."
"Your welcome Amy." He then shut his eyes. "Goodnight." He whispered.
She gave a silent smile before whispering back. "Goodnight."


Sonic's POV
"I really screwed up Tails..." Sonic complained. He was hanging ourt downstairs with Tails fixing the Wii, and Knuckles, working on a Rubix cube.
"Oh, Sonic, quit complaining and do something useful, lik- DAMMIT!!!" Knuckles shouted and threw the Rubix cube across the room. "I can't do that thing! Its like a freaking I.Q. test!"
Tails looked up holding a screwdriver. "It pretty much is an I.Q. test, Knuckles..."
"Oh of course you would know-"
"Do you want your Wii fixed or not?" Tails spat.
"Hello? Guys?" Sonic got back up. "What about Amy here?"
"Sor-ee! What do you want me to do? Go find her and ask her to start chasing you again?" Knuckles replied.
"No..." He sighed in response. "Its just that... after such a long time... she's finnaly done with me..."
"Didn't you want her to be done with you" Tails looked back up again.
"Well... sorta but, not like this... I feel like she's gonna hate me for the rest of her life."
"Not the rest of her life." Knuckles said. "But for the rest of your life."
"Gee, that makes me feel better. Thanks for your sympathy, Knuckles..." Sonic peered out the window. "Where is she anyway?"
Cream suddenly came down the stairs. "Hi guys!"
"Cream," Sonic jumped. "Where's Amy?"
"Amy? Oh um..." She bit her lip. "She's out."
"Well out where?"
"Just out." The rabbit was oviously hiding something. "She said she'll be back. I just don't know when..." Cream looked at the clock. It was 11:30.
"Ah ha!" Tails shouted.
He ran to him. "What is it?"
"I fixed it!" Sonic's heart sank. "I fixed the Wii!"
"YES!" Knuckles jumped and high-fived Tails. Sonic walked back and slumped by the window again. "Amy where are you?"


Shadow's POV
Sunlight streached across from the window onto the floor, and then reached Amy's sleeping body. Shadow slowly arose from his sleep. He sat and for a moment, was shocked to see Amy next to him. His memory of inviting her last night came back to him. It was about 7:00. He looked back to see Amy. She lied there, peacefully. Why can't I stop staring at her? Shadow questioned himself. He admired how beautiful she looked. The sunlight on her almost made her glow. But he then noticed that something was on her neck. He pushed her hair back and it reveiled a beautiful tattoo of a rose. It reached from the top of her neck down to her shoulder. She must of had this for a while. It didn't look like she had just gotten it. Shadow gently caressed her neck, until she slightly moved her head, he pulled his hand away.
Her weary eyes opened and turned to Shadow. "Hi."
"Hi." Shadow softly replied to her. "Did I snore last night?"
Amy gave a small laugh. "No. Did I?"
"Nope." He fell back onto his pillow.
"I should get going before Sonic and his bud's call the police."
Shadow looked up. "Did they know your were gone?"
"Ya but, I didn't really tell all of them I'd be gone." She sat up and pulled her jeans from yesterday back on. "I'll go get ready." Sha walked out and into his bathroom.
Whats wrong with me? Why did he get some odd feeling when he got near her? Every time I'm with her... some abnormal feeling is inside inside me... Could I falling for her? I haven't felt this way since... He paused. as a memory of he and a young girl running with him in the space colony ARK passed through his head. Maria. She reminds me of her...

Amy's POV
In the bathroom, Amy checked her purse, making sure she had everything and enough money for the bus. "I wonder if Sonic even missed me..." She mumbled. Of course not! Remember Amy, he's just a stupid jackass! That was true to her. She had no more romantic feelings for him. Amy splashed water onto her face, trying to calm down. "Just don't think of him." She kept repeating to herself.
She left the bathroom and found Shadow sitting on the couch. "You ok, Amy?"
Amy struggled to answer him. "I'm fine."
He still remained unconvinced. He then got up to her. "Are you really?"
Oh just stop hiding it Amy! "Ok... I'm still a little upset about the other day. But..." She paused. "Even though, I'm going through a tough time right now... you've made me feel so much better."
"I want you feel better." He said. "I don't want you upset."
Did he just say that? "Really?"
His hand pushed some of her hair out of her face. "Yes."
Silence over came the moment, until they both leaned closer, and placed their lips together for a passionate kiss. It almost seemed wrong, but it felt so right for Amy. Shadow's hands rubbed her back, and she wrapped her arms around his neck to bring them closer. She hugged him tighter, never wanting to let go.  Despite her desire to stay, she pulled away and grabbed her purse. "I should go." She started for the door.
"Wait." Shadow pulled her around and back to his mouth. But she had allowed him. Shadow moved his lips down onto her neck, while Amy grabbed and then stroked his quills. He kissed her softly back on her lips, but then stopped. "No. You should go. So they know your ok."
She looked back up at him. "Ya." Before leaving, she hugged him again. "Thank you Shadow. For everything." They shared one last kiss.
Amy opened his door and whispered bye to him. She skipped down the steps of his apartment. I feel GREAT! I feel wonderful! I can't wait to tell Cream!!!
Amy stopped dead. Cream. Cream! "Shit! Shit Shit!" She cried as she ran to the bus stop. "I forgot about Cream!"
