Never
Chapter 11

It was several hours past the last time Scourge and Shadow had their fun, and Scourge was the first to wake up. He slowly sat up and stretched, yawning as he did so.

'Hmm….' He looked at his alarm clock. He didn't use it for an alarm. It was only a clock to him. It read: nine pm. 'Interesting…. There's no way in hell that we'll be able to sleep tonight anyway…. Oh well! Guess I'd better wake Shadow up.' The emerald hedgehog looked over at his sleeping ebony and crimson streaked lover. He looked co adorable and sweet when he slept. It were as though he didn't have a care in the world. Soft blush tinted the darker hedgehog's cheeks, and he was temptingly beautiful to the evil, green hedgehog. He tenderly caressed Shadow's right cheek with the back of his right hand. He noticed that there was some dried cum on both of them from their fun, and wondered how he could have missed a single drop. 'I guess we should take a bath real quick before we do something else….' He noticed that Shadow's eyes started to open. The uke's eyes were still adjusted to the darkness, and he looked over at the clock.

"Good morning, Princess." Scourge said teasingly.

"Good morning, my ass!" Shadow growled. "It's only three hours until midnight! We'll never be able to sleep tonight!"

"Ah, hell, Shadow. It doesn't really matter anyway. That means we could do something fun together." Scourge tilted Shadow's chin up to where his lovers crimson eyes met his ice blue ones. "What do ya say, stripes?" Shadow was about to answer, when they heard Shadow's stomach growl. Shadow blushed from embarrassment. "Well, I know what we're not gonna do." Scourge stood up and went to the kitchen to get a bowl and a wash rag. He filled the medium-sized bowl with warm water, and brought it back upstairs to where Shadow was still laying down.

"What?" Shadow asked. Scourge sat on the bed next to him, and placed the bowl on the nightstand. He dipped the wash rag in the water, and then squeezed it out. There wasn't much water left in the rag. He started to gently rub it on the areas that needed to be cleaned off. Shadow blushed again and also wonder how his lover had missed any of it during their earlier fun.

"We're not gonna stay here tonight. We're gonna go out and have some fun. I say we hit a few clubs, have a few drinks, go out to eat, and go get some groceries." The emerald hedgehog said.

"Groceries?" the ebony hedgehog was confused.

"Well, we wouldn't need to go out to eat if we had groceries. That and, I didn't say everything we were gonna do was all fun and games." Scourge sweat dropped a little bit and shrugged.

"I'm worried, though." Shadow said.

"Why? What's there to worry about?"

"My backside still hurts…."

"Ah, it'll be alright." Scourge dipped the wash rag in the water again and rung it out once more. He started to clean himself off a little.

"What's the bowl of water for, anyway?" Shadow asked.

"I figured that a bath would take too long, so I thought a rag would be a smart idea. Plus, everything else on our bodies excepting these few areas is clean, so another bath would be unnecessary." He cleaned Shadow off a little bit more once he was done cleaning himself. "Get dressed, Princess." Scourge helped Shadow stand up. "There's fun to be had."
