DO NOT READ IF YOU HATE YAOI OR SONADOW! WARNING!
It was morning time in Mobius, and two hedgehogs were inside a room. Both laid on the bed, one hedgehog was awake and another was asleep, yet to awaken. The awoken hedgehog was a ebony hedgehog with crimson streaks in his upturned quills, arms and legs. He had deep crimson eyes that matched his streaks. He had a tan muzzle with a white patch of chest fur. This hedgehog's name was Shadow the hedgehog. Shadow was currently sitting next to his love, who was also a hedgehog and the hero of Mobius. The cobalt hedgehog was sound asleep next to his ebony lover, peaceful snoring away. The two hedgehogs have been together for two happy years that neither of them would trade for anything else. Shadow slowly got up from the bed after he kissed his lover on his forehead and headed to the bathroom. After he finished freshening up, he quietly changed into his G.U.N uniform very cautiously to avoid waking his lover. He didn't want to wake up Sonic because of one, he was in a peaceful sleep, but mostly because he wouldn't be able to take the hurt face on the hedgehog when he realizes were Shadow's going.
Shadow had told Sonic yesterday that he would have the whole day off and spend it with him. Sonic was overly joyed and excited that he planned everything they were going to do today. The only problem is that during last night, G.U.N had called Shadow and told him that he had a very important mission. Shadow tried everything to get them to change their mind but couldn't. Once Shadow excepted that he wasn't going to win he agreed to go to work the next day. While they were in bed about to sleep, Sonic caught on to Shadow's strange behaviour. He was curious so he decided to satisfy his suspicion.
"Shadow is everything alright. You've been acting weird. What's up?".
Shadow looked at him, debating whether he should tell Sonic or not. He didn't want to see Sonic upset so he said,
" Don't worry, everything's fine", but didn't look him in the eye as he said that.
" Are you sure?", Sonic asked, pressing the matter further.
"Yes, everything's fine love", the ebony hedgehog said reassuringly.
He then kissed Sonic on the cheek and told him,
" Go to sleep and stop worrying about nothing".
Sonic looked at him skeptically, but then shrugged it off, they would talk about it in the morning. They both said goodnight to one another and then went to sleep.
Shadow was recalling that whole scene last night as he changed into his uniform. He knew that Sonic had a suspicion and he couldn't take the risk of Sonic knowing. So that's why he was leaving before his lover woke up. As he was finally dressed and had his briefcase, he quietly walked to his lover,
"I'm so sorry i have to leave", he whispered in Sonics ear,
" I don't know when I'll be back but i hope you understand why I'm not with you when you wake up. I love you".
He then kissed Sonics forehead and walked to the door ready to leave, little did he know that Sonic was awake, and heard every word...
As soon as Shadow opened the door, a voice that was soft, curious and slightly upset asked, " Why are you leaving?".
Shadow cursed in his head and turned around to see Sonic bright and awake, with his beautiful emerald eyes filled with curiosity and hurt. Shadow didn't say anything nor did he look at him. His gaze was averted to the floor and he was silent. Sonic was about to ask another question until he looked at Shadow in his uniform and all the pieces fit into place.
" Your leaving for work... Aren't you?"
Silence.
It was so silent that you could hear the sound of a pin drop. It stayed that way for a minute, but not for long.
" Sonic I-"
" Why didn't you tell me?"
By the sound of Sonics voice, Shadow could tell he was disappointed, upset and most of all, hurt. He was afraid this would happen. This is what he tried to avoid, but it seems he might have made it worse.
" I wanted to but i couldn't. I didn't want to see you upset".
" So instead you lie to me and then leave in the morning without saying goodbye!? Why would you do that?!"
" I did this because i didn't want to make you upset. I didn't want this to happen!"
" And how's that working out for you! How long do you have to go..."
" I don't know."
Sonic was upset to the max. He wasn't angry, he was just madly disappointed and hurt. This isn't the first time that this has happened and all the other times, Shadow promised he would be home, but he always came back the next day, leaving Sonic alone and upset. He was tired of Shadow lying to him about working and especially making promises he can't keep. Once is whatever but...
" Do you have to go? I mean can't you do it tomorrow? I planned so much for us to do".
" I have to Sonic and you know that. My job is important and me i have to work to pay for the house, you know that".
"..."
" (sigh) I'm so sorry Sonic but i have to go. If i don't i could get fired. Don't think that my job is more important than you because nothing could ever compare to that. Ok? You understand right?"
"... Ya i know and i do understand but i just wish you didn't have to leave".
Shadow crouched down to look Sonic in the face as Sonic was sitting on his knees on the bed. He cupped Sonics chin with his hand and looked him in the eyes. Crimson red met emerald green. Shadow then kissed him and Sonic kissed back. It was brief, but passionate.
When they pulled back Shadow looked him in the eyes again and said,
" I'm so sorry love. I hope you can forgive me. I promise I'll make it up to you and i promise that i will come home lat-".
Sonic has heard this many times before. Shadow would make it up to him but he would never come home when he says he will. That was just another lie. That was another promise that Shadow wouldn't keep. Sonic closed his eyes as he interrupted Shadow to say, in a shakily, soft, gentle and very hurt voice,
" Don't just... Don't. Stop making promises to me that you can't keep. Just go...".
Once Sonic said that, he laid down on the bed with his back facing Shadow and did not say another word. Shadow, on the other hand, felt terribly guilty. The last three sentences he said stuck in his mind like glue. He felt terrible for making Sonic upset and regretted not telling Sonic the night before. But what he said was true, he does make promises that he doesn't keep. "Well that was the last time that was going to happen" he said to himself in his head as he quietly left the room with a new plan in mind, but not before saying to Sonic,
" I love you"
Shadow thought he heard wrong but didn't. He heard a quiet whisper come out from Sonic saying,
" I love you too...".
With a satisfied smile that was small, Shadow opened the door and left for work, after he took one last look at his lover under the sheets. While Shadow had a small smile on his face, Sonic had a frown on his face with small tears running down his cheeks. Once he heard the " Click!" sound from the door, he quietly said his lovers name before crying himself to sleep.
~ Ok so i was going to make this a one shot until i realized that my idea for the one shot was really long so i decided to make it into a two shot to make it easier on me because this would have been a long ass one shot for me to right and a long chapter for you to read. So here you go! I hope you all enjoy it! I'm still gonna right character profiles for my OC's but i though why not do some one or two shot stories on my favourite couples! So ya that's what I'm gonna do. The main story i have is in high school and the main character is my OC, Scarlet, but normal Sonic characters will be in it but i will start writing that when I'm done the main character profiles of my OC's. Also the story will include hetero couples and yaoi couples just to warn you early. The main reason why i have CP of my OC's is because they are in my story a lot with the Sonic characters and i want you to visualize what they look like, know who they ARE, and get to know their personality before you read the main story because it don't want to do that describing shit of them in the story 'cause that will waste my time and be unnecessary reading for you readers. So ya check then out and follow me if you like this story and my characters and i love comments, likes and reviews! ;) I will post the next chapter of the two shot when I'm not in a lazy mood! By for now!
