Sonic's POV
I was getting ready for the date Blaze and I had set. Blaze wanted to apologize about what happened and what better way than some dinner? I was going out while Rouge was staying behind. I put on my best shoes, a black and white shirt, some jeans, and a watch to see just what time it would be when the date ended. I went downstairs where Rouge was just reading one of the magazines she brought with her. "Later, Rouge," I said. "See ya," Rouge simply replied. I headed out the door and went to meet up with Blaze. Unknown to me, Shadow was waiting for me to leave so he could regain Rouge.
Shadow's POV
I was in a nearby alley when I saw Faker amscray. "Time to get Rouge back," I said to myself. I then walked over to the door, went inside, and noticed it was completely dark. I flipped on the lights and saw Rocket sitting on the couch, polishing a rifle and Blaze besides him. "Hey, Shads. I guess you thought I wouldn't be here, didn't you," Rocket asked. "How did you know," I asked back. "Just overheard Blaze talking about your little scheme. Isn't that right, Blaze," Rocket said. "It is. I'm sorry, Shadow. I'm not helping you anymore," Blaze said. "Fine, I'll tell Faker all about our little encounter then," I said. "Too late. I already know all about that," Sonic said leaning in the doorway. "Faker," I said as I turned around. "I already know about it because Rouge told me over the phone," Sonic said. "I'm not your property anymore," Rouge said stepping into the room. "If you know better, you'll leave Rouge alone," Rocket said aiming the rifle at me. "You win again, Faker. But mark my words, Rouge will be mine again," I said before leaving.
Rocket's POV
"Nice job, Rocket," Sonic said. "Thanks," I replied. "Rocket, I just wanted to say something," Blaze said. "What's that," I asked. "I'm sorry for using you. Shadow blackmailed me with the encounter we had. I feel terrible about it," Blaze said. "It's alright. You had to help Shadow because he had something he could use against you," I said. "Thanks for understanding," Blaze said. "Come on. We should go," I said. "That sounds like a good idea," Blaze replied. Blaze and I then left, leaving Sonic and Rouge alone with each other.
Rouge's POV
I was just sitting there besides Sonic, feeling the awkward silence in the room. Sonic finally broke the silence by asking "How are you holding up?" "Pretty good," I replied. "I guess you aren't even to give Shadow a chance, huh," he asked. "No, I'm not. He cheated on me. Plus, I already have feelings for another hedgehog," I replied. "Another hedgehog? Well, who is it," Sonic asked. "Who do you think it is," I asked back with a smirk. "Let me think. Amy's a girl, so she's out. I don't see you with Silver, so he's out. I'm pretty sure Rocket likes Blaze, so he's out. That leaves...," Sonic started before realizing who I was talking about. "I see who it is," Sonic said. "Just kiss me," I said. "Done," Sonic replied before kissing me right on the lips. We kissed for five minutes before Sonic broke the kiss. "To tell ya the truth, I had feelings for you. I just buried them because of Shadow," Sonic said. "Really," I asked. "Yeah. If Shadow knew I liked you, he would beat me into an inch of my life," Sonic said. "It's a good thing Shadow and I were done," I said. "That was the best piece of news I ever got," Sonic said before kissing me again.
