Things are getting weird

A/N: So…any questions about this. I'll just start the chapter.

Sonic's POV

Once I get back to normal, I'm definitely blackmailing him if he ever gets married to a certain someone he met a year ago. But I am enjoying someone taking care of me, even if it is Shadow. It is weird to see him like this considering he's not the type to take care of children. Looks like the Ultimate Life form and be an ultimate dad judging by how he's acting.

Poking his cheek, I said, "Shadow, wake up. Wake up."

He groaned and turned, mumbling, "Yes, Sonic?"

Plus he calls me by my name, so that's a bonus.

"I'm bored." I complained; looking over at the nightstand and seeing something glitter inside one of the drawers. He got up carrying me to the bathroom. Sure there are a lot of benefits to this, but having him bathe me is a different story.

Getting out of the tub, he handed me a towel and said, "I'll be right back, start brushing your teeth."

Watching him leave, I reached in the cup and began brushing. Noticing Shadow hadn't come back yet; I quickly finished and stepped back in the bedroom. Remembering the shiny object in one of the drawers, I went over to it. Peering inside, I gulped after realizing the pistol was loaded. I remembered that he somehow still worked for G.U.N, so I can't really be surprised.

I wonder why he still works for them though. Hearing Shadow call me, I ran towards him after slipping on my socks. Putting my shoes down in front of me, I began putting them on and froze as he started brushing my quills. It cannot get any weirder than this. Hoisting me up on his shoulders, I decided it just got weirder and I don't remember him being this tall.

"What's wrong?" I asked, still slightly embarrassed at how high my voice had gotten.

Walking outside and holding my legs, he answered, "Nothing, Sonic, why?"

"You're acting weird."

He chuckled, tapping the hand I had on his ear, replying, "I guess I am."

Looking at the house, I quickly realized it was Amy's and wrapped both my hands around his neck. Amy let us in and cooed at the sight.

"Aw, Aren't you two just the cutest?"

Putting me down, Shadow retorted, "I'll be back later. Sonic, be good for Amy, alright?"

"Okay." I replied, starting to mess with my gloves as he left.

Looking at Amy, I sat down as she said, "He's been acting really strange ever since you were turned into a toddler."

"Yeah, but I like it." I replied, kicking my feet and humming.

"Aw, so cute; I wonder if Shadow will finally get over himself and visit."

"It might take a while, maybe, when I'm normal, we can send him there." I replied, laughing softly. I continued laughing until my stomach growled.

"Maybe he left you breakfast. Aw, he put a little note on it." She said, pulling out a container of pancakes.

Sitting at the table, I grinned as the warm pastry was set in front of me slathered in syrup. Wolfing them down, I stopped, looking up at Amy.

"Is something wrong?" She asked, turning away from the sink.

I shook my head, exclaiming, "These are the best pancakes ever! I had no idea Shadow could cook."

She laughed as I continued eating, finishing a few minutes later. Sitting back on the couch, I wondered why Shadow was acting the way he was. It was weird, yes, but I never thought he'd transform into a parental figure. Well, big brother to me, but to anyone else.

Oh Chaos, they could mistake me for his son or something, especially now. Shadow as my dad, that's weird, awkward, and wrong in more ways than one. Although, it is nice for us to get along; I can see him being a dad, just not to me.

"Amy, what's today?" I inquired, staring at the TV as 'Scooby Doo' came on.

"Thursday." She answered, sitting next to me.

"No." I howled; realizing not even a week had passed since I de-aged.

Patting my head, she reassured, "You'll be fine. You said you enjoyed it."

"Yeah, but I don't think I can take it." I whined, flailing my arms.

"You'll be fine." She repeated, a bit firmer this time.

"Fine." I agreed, lying down to take a nap.

I awoke finding myself still at Amy's, pouting, I asked aloud, "How come he's not back yet?"

Hearing Amy walk in, she answered, "He called earlier while you were sleeping and said he had papers to fill out, so you're staying with me until he gets back.

I whimpered quietly and hid my face in one of the cushions determined to go back to sleep. Why did I react like that when she said he wouldn't be back? If I recall, I reacted the same way when I hadn't seen my dad in a while. Please don't tell me I think of Shadow as my dad. I mean he's nice and protective, maybe that whole Black Doom thing did mess him up more than we thought.

Geez, this being a toddler business is somehow worse than I imagined. Thanks a lot, Egghead. Feeling cold air rush through me, I shivered burrowing deeper in something plush and fluffy. This reminded me of Shadow. Yes, I've grown accustomed to using his chest as a pillow, mainly because he's really warm.

Falling back into my subconscious, I created a small plan to use tomorrow.

A/N: Not much to say here, except, it might not be updated as quickly because of school. And for some odd reason, I keep referring to my crossover series in individual fics. As a reminder this is not connected to it, it's an individual Sonic fic. As stated in the first Author's Note, any questions? Review please.
