Meanwhile at the Night Babylon Apartment Complex…

"Rouge don't answer the door. Do NOT answer the door!" Shadow buried himself under the covers and tried not to exist.

Rouge walked around his bed and pulled the covers off of him. "Why are you acting like a scared child?"

Shadow hissed at her and grabbed the covers back. "That pink hedgehog is coming-"

There was a knock at the door. Rouge rolled her eyes at Shadow and went to go answer it. Amy stood on the welcome mat on the ground.

"Hello Amy, what brings you here?" Rouge asked her with her hand rested against the door frame.

"Hi, Rouge. Is Shadow here?" She asked while smiling sweetly with her arms behind her back.

"Oh Shadow will love this." Rouge thought with an evil little smirk on her face. She motioned for Amy to come in and moved out of the way.

"Yes. Shadow's here, he just woke up from a nap. Come in, come in." She let Amy sit on their couch. "Just a minute. I'll go get him for you."

Amy sat down on the couch and looked around. They really had a nice little apartment. It wasn't as nice as hers but it was still something. Amy's ears picked up the sound of Rouge's voice and scuffling, followed by yelling. Rouge finally came back into the room holding Shadow in her arms, who was visibly irritated at being cradled. She set him down on the couch next to Amy.

"I'm sorry if you heard any of that. Shadow was just being a baby about seeing you. He's still cranky because he just woke up."

Shadow growled at the white bat.

"I'll leave you two alone for now. Tell me if he needs a diaper change or whatever."

Shadow twisted around. "F*** YOU ROUGE!" He yelled at her. Rouge only laughed, patted him on the head and left to go to her room to read a magazine. Shadow seethed in anger but turned back around to look forward.

"What do you want?" He asked Amy with his arms crossed.

Amy smoothed her dress out and smiled. "Shadow, did you know that if Sonic ever got with anyone else. God forbid he ever does get with anyone else; that you are my second choice?"

Shadow uncrossed his arms. "I maybe have suspected it."

Amy smiled more. "That's good because-"

"Sonic got with someone else didn't he?"

Amy hung her head to where he couldn't see her eyes. "Yes…He got with Blaze…"

"That must be heartbreaking."

"It is…" A tear fell on Shadow's glove.

Shadow looked at her and shook his head. "Poor girl…"

Amy wrapped her arms around his shoulders for a hug. "Shadow, I know it just sounds like I'm coming to you because I need to fill the hole in my heart right now but…I have to ask you a question."

Shadow slightly hugged her back to comfort her, as much as he wanted to not to. "What do you want to ask me?"

Amy sniffled and looked at him. "Would you ever betray me like Sonic did?"

Shadow sighed. "Amy, he didn't betray you, he's single and he found someone, and that someone turned out to not be you."

Amy started breathing heavily.

Shadow continued. "What would you have done if he turned out to be gay?"

"…I don't know…"

Shadow looked at her. "Are you okay?"

"No…You and Rouge aren't dating are you?" She asked, wiping her eyes.

"Nope, we're actually exes, but we still live together for some reason." The hedgehog answered. He yawned.

"Shadow…I like you a lot."

Rouge peeked out from her room. "Just kiss him!" She yelled.

"Shut up!" Shadow yelled back.

"Do you like me too?" Amy asked.

Shadow thought carefully for his answer. "I like you when you aren't acting crazy. For example, right now."

"So, we could be a thing if I don't act crazy around you?" Amy asked excitedly.

"Well-"

Amy hugged him more. "Yay!

"Shadamy!" Rouge sang from her room.

Shadow wanted to yell at her but he kept his mouth shut.
