Chapter 11

It's a Natural Thing

Then next moon Sonic came over to Shadow's as soon as he was done with work. They had somewhat come up with a plan so Knuckles wouldn't catch on to what was happening being he was somewhat smart. Though really it was more of a test for Streaks, as Shadow put it. The younger hedgehog just wanted to test his acting skills so they were going to humor him. Quills dyed blue and green contacts and Streaks looked just like Sonic. Only a few inches shorter. "What do you think?" Both black hedgehogs couldn't help but ask.

Sonic was stunned, to say the least. It was like he was looking into a mirror. Whoever had dyed Streaks' quills had done a nearly flawless job. "Looks great," Sonic replied with a thumbs up sign. "Only one thing though... Streaks, you don't sound anything like me."

"Oh really?" Clearing his throat Streaks put a hand on his hip. "How about now?" He was able to throw his voice so he sound just like Sonic's. There was no doubt that he could pull this off now. Grinning Streaks clearly felt like he was a genius.

"He has many talents. I think you can agree on that." Shadow smiled, being very proud of his brother's work.

"Whoa..." Now Sonic was even more impressed. "How... how'd you do that?" The younger hedgehog could easily pass as Sonic. That was almost scary.

With a grin Streaks actually rubbed under his nose like Sonic would. "Easy to throw your voice with years of practice. I could take over you life if I really wanted to. Be thankful I like you." He laughed a bit getting Shadow to cough a bit to get him back on track.

"It will help him when he starts voice acting for cartoon characters when he's not on Broadway." Shadow smiled. "Now show him how you will talk to his roommate."

"Right." Putting a hand being his back in a way Sonic has before when talking to Knuckles a bored look came on his face. "Knuckles, what are you watching? Ghost again? I will never understand how you could believe in such things. It's all a bunch of none sense..." Grabbing his chest a little Streaks looked bit pained. "That hurt a little."

"Streaks! Don't break character."

"Yeah..." Clearing his throat again he shook his head. "You know what? It's been a long day. I'm going to bed. And scene." Bowing Streaks smiled.

He could take over my life? The kid had to be joking. At least he hoped so. "That... that was pretty good. Wow. Uh..." Sonic looked towards Shadow. "Is it weird that I'm strangely creeped out by how good that was?"

Putting an arm around Sonic the dark hedgehog smiled. "That's how most people react but it will make him very well known." Turning and pecking his boyfriend on the cheek he grinned. "All he will do is have a quick conversation with your roommate, then he'll go to your room. So you can relax here with me. And remember Streaks, this is just a test run."

Getting a nod from his brother Streaks grinned. "Night you two. I'm off to my greatest acting job yet." Leaving the young hedgehog whistled.

The two of them watched as Streaks went off. It took a while for Sonic to break the silence. "I'd say the kid's still a genius. Not in your way but in a different way," Sonic said with a small smile.

"He makes me proud." Pulling Sonic close Shadow gave him a kiss. "Now, what do you want to do while we wait for the transformation?"

"You make it sound so casual." Sonic's face fell. The last time this had happened Shadow had gotten furious with him. What if that seem feeling of restlessness happened again tonight? If he couldn't control himself before then he probably couldn't this time either. And he seriously doubted rope would help keep him still, thinking of Shadow's threat.

"Hey Shads..." Blue had started using Streaks' nickname for his brother a few days ago and luckily Shadow hadn't minded. "I've gone berserk both times I've transformed. I need something to do. Wear me out. Otherwise I might go nuts again."

Sitting back on the couch Shadow had to think. "I have some exercise equipment. That might be able to help." Smiling a bit friendly Shadow was hoping he didn't have to tie Sonic up.

"I don't know if that'll work... I mean I ran up at least ten flights of stairs without even breaking a sweat." Sighing, Sonic sat next to his boyfriend. "Not to mention I apparently have super speed. I've tried it out a few more times and I don't get tired very easily then either."

With a sigh, the dark hedgehog sat up before stroking Sonic's quills. "We'll think of something. And if not I will tie you up... With chains if I have to."

Gulp. "Y-you have... chains?"

"Yes. I use to use them when we owned a boat. I doubt you'd be able to get out of them."

"Erm..." The way Shadow was casually talking about tying him up made the blue hedgehog feel rather uncomfortable and at the same time strangely excited. The latter he couldn't explain at all. He wasn't into that sort of thing, was he?

Leaning back Shadow smiled before turning on the TV. They had some time to kill before Sonic turned so it was best to relax before then. He enjoyed just sitting with Sonic.

When Sonic finally did transform he growled but then collapsed again. That was extremely hard on his body. And each time it happened it felt worse than the last. Or was he just imagining that? "Ugh... that, by far, is the worst part."

Going over to the werehog Shadow put a hand on his back. "I'll get you some pain killers." Moving over to the bathroom he came back with what the other needed. "I hope that helps... how are you feeling other then the pain?"

"Uhm..." Like I really need to break something. "Okay, I guess..."

"Good." Getting down Shadow gave Sonic a bit hug. "If there is anything you need you do know you can tell me... and don't say you want to go running."

"Well I do," Sonic replied with a small chuckle, watching Shadow go back over to the couch and pat the spot next to him, signaling he wanted the werehog next to him. Shadow wanted to keep an eye on Sonic as much as possible so he didn't run off or do anything else as stupid as he did the last time he was like this.

Sitting next to his boyfriend Sonic couldn't really hold still. Though he could tell Shadow's eyes were on him making him just a tad nervous. Those red eyes, even behind glasses were very intense. The only person he knew with red eyes and they could make his skin crawl. Everything about Shadow though made his skin crawl in all the best ways. How he would like to know what it was like to get Shadow's skin to crawl.

It was then an interesting smell came to Sonic and he perked up. Whatever it was it smelled really nice. Looking around, his eyes eventually fell back on Shadow and the werehog leaned on him. Yep, it's coming from him. Must have just gotten out of the shower. He purred, nuzzling Shadow's neck, admiring him.

Moving a bit so he could put an arm around Sonic the dark hedgehog purred at being nuzzled. It didn't take long though for him to feel Sonic sniffing him. It tickled a little but Shadow was able to hold still. "Feeling affectionate are we?" He teased a bit, still enjoying him being close.

Sonic didn't answer, only moving closer to Shadow and letting out some more soft purrs. "You smell nice..." he finally said, starting to lick.

Shivering slightly to the lick Shadow had to blush slightly. "Well, I was at the gym earlier today so you might be smelling my soap from when I showered. I didn't think you'd want me to be sweat and smelling of that said sweat."

"Mmm..." Another lick. "Smell, no...but seeing you like that, maybe. Kinda hot."

Blushing even more, and shivering again the dark hedgehog had to eye Sonic. The sent that filled the air was a familiar one to him. And quite frankly Shadow didn't really know what to do about it. Didn't help that being he knew Sonic could easily over power him if he really wanted to got him a bit excited. It was rare when he wanted to be over powered by someone.

And since Shadow wasn't doing anything to stop him yet Sonic just kept going. Licking where ever he found and slowly starting to crawl on top of the darker hedgehog.

When the large dark blue werehog was on top of him Shadow instinctively raised his hands, placing them on Sonic's chest. His face was completely red now with how close the other was, and what he knew this was all leading to. "M-maybe we sh-should move to the bedroom..."

For once it was Shadow who was the nervous one. Though Sonic had to admit, he had no idea what he was doing. He was only following instinct. "Okay...? Are...you alright?"

"Fine... just... you took me off guard. Let's go to the bedroom." Closing his eyes a bit Shadow leaned back slightly. It had been so long since he had been touched in such a way, so he couldn't help but be nervous, yet excited.

Sonic nuzzled Shadow under his chin and slowly got off of him. If this was leading to where he thought it was then the werehog could hardly contain himself.

Once the two of them were in the bedroom Sonic couldn't wait much longer and pulled Shadow close, wrapping his giant arms around him and kissing him fiercely.

Shadow barely had time to lock the door, something he was just use to doing when conducting such activities when Sonic pulled him in. For a while he couldn't kiss back due to the shock he found himself in. But he eventually he just started kissing back just as fiercely. As they pulled away Shadow couldn't help but bit the bottom of Sonic's lip briefly.

It was the first time they had kissed while Sonic was a werehog and Shadow had to say that he quite enjoyed it. Sonic was a little surprised when his bottom lip was captured by Shadow's canines, giving a small grin. That just got Sonic to grin as well. Once Shadow let him go Sonic went straight for his neck, nipping and licking at everything he could find.

Holding onto Sonic's shoulders Shadow had to let out a moan. One thing he loved was what his mate was doing to him now. Never really knew why but for some reason Shadow just loved having his neck kissed and licking and biting only drove him crazy. Squirming a bit, one of Shadow's legs just hooked around Sonic's.

The werehog paused when he felt Shadow respond very positively to this treatment. He grinned and made sure to leave plenty of marks on Shadow's neck. Both of them were getting extremely excited and Sonic was pleased that Shadow was going along with it this time. If we're going as far as I hope we are then I'm glad he's making good on his word. Heh.

Really all Shadow could do was bask in it. Then Sonic decided to make a risky move and grabbed the dark hedgehog's ass making him jump a bit. Pulling away slightly, Shadow smiled as he took off his glasses. "Wait, wait. I need to know something before we continue..."

Blinking Sonic had to swallow. Maybe he over stepped his bounds. "What... what is it?"

"I need to know you are ready to take this step... are you sure you want to do this Sonic?" Rubbing his arm a bit, he looked to Sonic with a combination of longing and worry. Shadow just wanted to make sure that his boyfriend was positive this was what he wanted. It wasn't something they could take back.

"Oh is that all?" Sonic chuckled to himself and leaned in for another kiss. "Shadow, I don't think I've ever been more sure about anything else in my entire life. I've liked you for so long and...doing this with you...it would honestly be a dream come true."

Smiling and giving a playful lick on the cheek Shadow just purred. "I just needed to be sure." Being pulled into another kiss he couldn't help but moan. In the back of his head he was trying to remember how long it had been since he laid down with someone one but when those large hands started to roam again it was soon forgotten. Going to what was left of Sonic's pants Shadow started to take them off.

He could already feel Sonic's hardness through his pants and almost gasped when he finally got those pants off. Sonic was huge.

Curiously Sonic looked down as well and was a little shocked himself. "Huh... I guess this transformation really does apply to my entire body, huh?" He said nervously.

Biting his lip a bit and looking away, now Shadow was really excited but had to try and contain himself. Jumping the gun on this one could really get him hurt. "W-why don't you sit down?" Pushing Sonic back a bit to get him to sit on the bed he got to work on taking off his own clothes, as well as setting his glasses on the night stand and taking out some lubrication. They would need it.

"Eh?" The blush on the werehog's face came back when Shadow started undressing. They really were going to do this, weren't they? That thought alone kept Sonic nice and hard.

But he had no idea what he was doing. Before he was just going on instinct. The way Shadow was acting however, and even getting out the lubrication (making Sonic blush even more) got him thinking about something he probably shouldn't bring up now but just had to ask. "Um...Shadow? I don't wanna kill the mood or anything but...have you...uh...d-done this before?"

Freezing a bit Shadow had to look at Sonic a bit confused. It just seemed like an odd thing to ask. "Of course I have... what on earth would make you even ask that?" Completely naked now, Shadow crawling into Sonic's lap. Facing Sonic but sitting on the blue werehog's knees.

"Just..." Sonic suddenly felt a little out of his element. "I haven't done this before, so..."

Chuckling, Shadow brushed his hand against Sonic's cheek. "First time with a man?"

"No...well, yes, but... I mean, this is my first time in general..."

Falling silent a dumbfounded look came to Shadow's face as he looked to his mate before him. Opening his mouth he tried to say something but it wouldn't come out. Looking down for a bit he had to think of what to say but could only think of one thing. "You... you're a virgin?"

"Uh-huh..." Sonic looked away, now completely embarrassed. "That's not...bad...is it...?"

"No, no." Cupping Sonic's cheeks, Shadow guided his gaze up to look at him again. "That's not a bad thing at all. It's good that you've saved yourself." Pulling him into a kiss now Shadow wasn't sure if this was a great idea but he knew that it would break Sonic's heart if he just pulled away. And it was clear that the blue hedgehog wanted this, having no second thoughts about it. Pulling away from the kiss Shadow nuzzled Sonic's neck. "Do... do you want me to take charge?"

It was strange how someone as menacing as Sonic looked right now could seem so innocent and oblivious. "Y-yeah...if you don't mind... I have no idea what I'm doing..."

Purring slightly the dark hedgehog continued to nuzzle Sonic's neck. "Well, firs things first." Sighing he would have liked to let his boyfriend do this being he was a virgin but with the way Sonic's hands looked with those claws there was no way. Taking the lubrication Shadow put some on two of his fingers. Rubbing them together a bit he slowly adjusted himself, moving his hand down before rubbing his tailhole then pushing them in, biting his lips.

"Wh-what are you doing?" Sonic stuttered nervously, even though this was incredibly hot. He was feeling like he was getting left behind.

"Y-you're large. I need to stretch myself b-before we do anything." Even though he was panting a bit Shadow pulled Sonic into a heated kiss while he fingered himself. It was a bit cute how nervous Sonic was about this, but Shadow was hoping that wouldn't last during the whole thing.

Oh. Well that made sense. One look at his claws told Sonic why Shadow was doing it himself instead of letting him. He swallowed and shuffled nervously but wrapped his arms around the dark hedgehog, kissing him deeply. Even if he was nervous, there was no way he was going to back out of this. No way. He needed this.

Slipping in a third finger Shadow had to moan. Shaking a bit he started to stretch them meaning he had to break the kiss so he could take in as much air as he could. For a while he did this till he was sure it would be okay. Fingers coming out he put some of the lubrication on his hand. "It's okay if you want to move a bit." He grinned as he wrapped his hand around Sonic's nicely sized cock. It needed to be slicked up before it was inside him.

"Ah-!" Sonic froze when he felt the hand on his cock and gripped tightly at the bed. It would probably be ruined in the morning but right now neither hedgehog cared. "Sh-shadow...!" He moaned once his mate started moving his hand, slicking up the large appendage.

Purring at his name, Shadow rubbed his thumb a bit on the head. It didn't take too long to get the hardened flesh ready. Taking a deep breath the dark hedgehog moved and rubbed his tail hole on the cock. Spreading his legs as much as he could without making it uncomfortable and grabbing onto Sonic's shoulders he slowly lowered himself with a moan.

Oh Chaos! Sonic wasn't sure if that prepping had helped because Shadow was so tight! "Ahhh... G-god Shadow..." He had no idea it would feel like this. The lube was certainly helping. Sonic just hoped he wasn't hurting his mate.

Holding on to Sonic tightly Shadow just started to move. In a way he needed this a little more then his mate being he had done things like this before. It was nice to finally have something that wasn't a toy or his hands. Moaning the dark hedgehog started to nip at Sonic's ear, not knowing if the other would like that.

Every action Shadow made fascinated and excited Sonic to no end. The way he moved, the way he sounded, everything just made the werehog want this moment to never end. The way Shadow worked his cock made Sonic wonder just how many times Shadow did this before.

I'm all his... I've given myself up for him... He'd given Shadow everything now and wanted to take none of it back. Maybe this was what bliss really felt like.

Stopping for a moment to catch his breath, Shadow rested his head on Sonic's shoulder. It felt good but for some reason he just couldn't find his own sweet stop. Shifting slightly he almost yelped when his mate growled and bucked his hips. Grinning Shadow just nipped at Sonic's nose. "I-if you don't want be to stop th-then you better do that again."

The look on Shadow's face made Sonic growl even more. He was challenging him. With his own wicked grin, showing off vicious canines, Sonic bucked his hips again, this time harder. "Y-yeah?" He asked in a husky voice. "Like that?"

"Ah!" Squeezing Sonic's shoulders Shadow couldn't help but call out. Purring the grin stayed on his face as he looked the other in the eye. "Yes... l-like that."

Oh my Chaos, if he's trying to turn me on even more then it's working. Sonic gritted his teeth and continued to thrust upwards into Shadow, the both of them calling out on each. Sonic's sheer size was making this amazing for Shadow and either the blue hedgehog was getting more comfortable with this or that instinct of his was kicking up again to make him act this way.

Whatever the reason was, after a few more thrusts, Shadow suddenly found himself on his back and Sonic on top of him, licking and nipping at his neck once again and thrusting even harder.

Body shaking in delight by it Shadow knew he wouldn't last much longer under this treatment. It was raw. It was primal. And he loved it. Wrapping his legs around Sonic's wast, and grabbing onto his sheets the dark hedgehog just called out Sonic's name, over and over again till he finally reached his limit and came. "Ah! S-Sonic!" Grabbing onto his mate tightly at the feeling his body just wouldn't stop shaking. Chaos I needed that. I forgot how that was suppose to feel.

The reactions were wonderful and Sonic wished it lasted longer. One thing Shadow noticed though was that Sonic had excellent stamina. He wasn't sure if it was because of this form or it was just natural for him, but for this being his first time having sex, Sonic was holding out for a while.

Blue's form was shaking almost as much as Shadow's but he held on for at least five more minutes after Shadow came before cumming himself, biting his lip to keep himself from howling like he wanted to. "Ahh..."

Gasping at the feeling of being filled Shadow smiled, brushing some of Sonic's quills. Purring he pulled the other into a kiss. After that it was something Shadow needed. As they pulled away he looked into green emeralds and could feel his body melting even more. They way Sonic was looking at him just made him speechless.

It was pure love and adoration. He hadn't realized until now how strongly Sonic's feelings were towards him and he felt rather flattered by it. No words needed to be said at this point. Neither of them could really speak very coherently after that anyway.

When Sonic pulled out he almost collapsed on top of Shadow had he not rolled out of the way at the last second. The bed wasn't very big so he almost fell off. But he pulled Shadow close to him nonetheless and nuzzled the top of his head. He never wanted to let go and fell asleep almost instantly like this.

Shadow fell asleep a little slower, needing to catch his breath before being able to. That was an experience he wouldn't be forgetting any time soon. And the look in Sonic's eyes. They wouldn't leave his mind. When he finally was able to get to sleep those eyes haunted him.

About eight Shadow was awoken by Sonic shriek of pain as he was turning back into his normal self. Groaning a bit at the awakening the dark hedgehog put a hand on his boyfriend's shaking body that had fallen on the floor. "Morning... You're not in too much pain are you?"

"U-uh..." To be honest he was. Sonic swore that pain got worse every time it happened. "No... I-I'm fine. No worries..." But he didn't want to seem weak in front of Shadow, especially not after last night. Some of it was a bit of a blur but Sonic remember most of it. Especially how it felt. Even with the pain his body still tingled with delight.

"Mmm... good." Shadow mumbled a bit. "I forget now... did I tell you I have the day off?" It was clear by how his speak was a tad slurred that Shadow wasn't completely awake yet and was just startled by Sonic's scream.

"No..." was the reply, Sonic climbing back on the bed. Shadow was indeed still half asleep. "Funny coincidence... I don't have to work either. I didn't even know you could get days off."

"Good... then we can just stay in bed." Yawning again Shadow sat up a bit and rubbed his eyes. He liked having lazy days. That was one thing he needed to have more often.

"I wonder how Streaks is doing pretending to be me..." Sonic couldn't help but think as he lied back down next to Shadow and nuzzled his neck. "Last night was awesome, by the way..."

Chuckling a bit Shadow had to playfully push Sonic. "Don't talk about my brother then bring up last night. That's just strange." Laying completely down Shadow to sigh. It was just a peaceful sigh.

"Sorry..." Admittedly Sonic wasn't really thinking. He was still in a daze from his transformation and their actions.

Rubbing Sonic's back a bit the dark hedgehog purred. "But... what were you saying about last night?"

"That it was great..." Sighing Sonic scooted closer to his mate and clung to him. "I didn't hurt you, did I?"

"Of course not." Nuzzling the top of Sonic's head he purred some more. "Still... are you sure you were a virgin?"

"Pretty sure, yeah." He had only been with one other person besides Shadow and Sonic knew for a fact that they never went that far.

"Hard to believe." Licking the back of Sonic's ear he was a bit horny still. After all, he hadn't had sex in years before last night. So now his need had come back.

The blue body he was wrapped around shivered with delight and purred softly. It was a wonderful sound and Shadow ached to hear more. Seeing Sonic like this, a little more docile, had sparked something in Shadow that made his need even more present to him.

Stopping for a moment Shadow couldn't help but grin. "Sonic... do you want to know what it feels like?" Letting one of his hands go up Sonic's thigh he purred in his ear.

"Ahh..." Sonic's muzzle was now beat red. Since his blue hedgehog had reverted back Shadow could tell that Sonic's confidence had dwindled a little. Perhaps a little fun could help that. He brushed his body right up against Sonic's, grinding their hips together and making Sonic moan wonderfully. "Y-yes..." At least Shadow knew he wasn't the only one who was still horny.

Getting right on top of Sonic with a purr, eyes half lid, and grinning. "Well I'd be more then happy to show you." Rubbing Sonic's side a bit Shadow was showing off his dominate side. Spreading his legs a bit the dark hedgehog got in between them and grinded. Both their cocks rubbing together showing how much larger Shadow was then his mate.

Sonic certainly was not as big in this form as he was last night but he was still a nice size. Already fully erect he stood a nice seven inches. The blue hedgehog observed however that Shadow was bigger than him, and thicker. He moaned and arched his back slightly at the feeling. The way Shadow was acting was so hot. Sonic could barely stand it.

Grabbing both of Sonic's hands and pinning them down Shadow grinned. Those looks were quite nice on him. Suited him in a way. Licking up Sonic's neck, then biting down he gave the other a quick love bite. Pulling away and looking at it he had to purr. "You look good like that." Letting go of Sonic's hands so he could get the lubrication. Putting some on his hand he had to grin even more. "I'm going to start with one finger. But I'll bet you'll like it." Rubbing on his tailhole Shadow slowly pushed his finger in.

"Ah-!" Sonic's hips jerked at the sudden intrusion and he squirmed slightly. He felt awkward and stuffed. Was it supposed to feel like this? He wasn't sure what to make of it. Just relax, Sonic... It just started... You saw how Shadow was last night, he loved it... And the blue hedgehog prayed that he would enjoy it that much as well. Just the way Shadow was acting, dominating him in an almost teasing way, made this a lot more interesting. He licked his lips in anticipation.

Feeling Sonic tense up a bit Shadow's ears went down slightly. Wiggling his finger around he brought the rest of his attention to Sonic's aching cock. Licking up the bottom side of it he purred. Especially when it made his boyfriend's hips buck. "Bet you like that." Taking the tip in his mouth he moaned around it, finger still moving.

iOh god!/i This kind of feeling Sonic couldn't describe. It was almost like his whole body was on fire and he was loving every second of it. "Sh-Shadow!" the blue hedgehog called out desperately, hips bucking again.

Sucking a bit hard Shadow started to wiggle a second finger into his boyfriend. The blow job was more of just a distraction from the fingering helping Sonic get more into it. But Shadow had to say that he liked Sonic's taste, making him suck harder.

"Ghhk...! Ahh!" This was driving Sonic completely insane and Shadow knew it. He couldn't believe how tight Sonic was. Now he was certain the blue hedgehog had been a virgin before last night, and in a way still was, as least in this regard. Sonic was clenching his fingers hard and tight to the point where they could barely move at first. With the way the blue hedgehog exercised Shadow wasn't too surprised but this was still unreal.

Now Sonic wasn't sure what to focus on. The fingers invading him or the mouth covering his cock and sucking wonderfully. Again he called out Shadow's name, feeling his release come up quickly.

It was the third finger that actually set Sonic off. Cumming he just called out. Being he got off last night there wasn't too much so Shadow had no trouble just taking it all and swallowing. Pulling away he grinned up at Sonic as he moved his fingers a little more. "Glad to know you are enjoying yourself."

"Uhn..." By this point Sonic could barely form coherent words. The fingers still pumping inside his tight hole made him squirm but otherwise he was trying not to move. He knew he had to relax if he wanted to fit Shadow inside of him (and boy did he ever).

Once he was sure Sonic was stretched to a nice size Shadow pulled his fingers out of him. Putting some lotion on his one impressive dick he positioned himself and looked right in Sonic's eyes. Smiling he licked the blue hedgehog's nose. "Are you ready?"

The blue hedgehog was a bit intimidated by Shadow's size and swallowed. That was really supposed to fit in him? But if he could somehow fit inside Shadow then he supposed anything was possible. Slowly Sonic nodded and braced himself.

Cupping Sonic's cheeks and rubbing them with his thumb like he usually did Shadow smiled down at him. "Relax and stay calm. Deep breaths. This is your first time so I won't lie... for a while it will just feel strange." Pecking Sonic on the forehead Shadow slow pushed in with barely and problems. He knew how to prep without causing much pain.

Since it was his first time Sonic already assumed it was going to be a little bit painful at first. When he felt Shadow fully push into him he groaned loudly and wrapped his arms around his mate. "Shadow! Agh!"

Nuzzling the side of Sonic's head to comfort him, and rubbing his back Shadow stopped when he was all the way in. For a while he just stayed there, keeping his arms tightly wrapped around his mate and comforting him. Then he slowly started to rock his hips.

A few whimpers and moans came from Sonic but for now he was relatively quiet as he clung desperately to his mate. "Oooh..." He managed to get out a few squirms and bucks but most of the time Sonic was trying to adjust to this new and strange feeling. It didn't hurt so much anymore but it was still odd and unfamiliar. Maybe because Shadow was used to it more than he was he could enjoy it better?

At least from where Shadow was it seemed like Sonic was at least enjoying himself and the new sensation. Plus the way that his mate clung to him really made the dark hedgehog feel good. But he wanted to make Sonic love this and understand why people did this when they couldn't have children. There was a reason to make love together and not for only one person. Showing Sonic that reason though was the only way he'd understand it.

When Shadow gave a particularly hard thrust Sonic's whole body jolted and it felt like he was seeing stars. Something had been hit deep inside him and it felt wonderful. "Th-that...what did you...ohhhhh... M-more...!"

Grinning it looked like he found what he had been looking for. Quickly he complied with Sonic's moan and thrusted right back into the spot as hard as he could without it being painful. Getting a cry of pleasure got him to moan in delight. It was always wonderful for him to be able to please his mate. Always thought that and always would. Though deep down he was hoping this would be the last one he had to learn about. The last one he would always lay down with and say good-night.

And with the way Sonic looked at him last night Shadow could think that was a very strong possibility. He still couldn't get those eyes out of his head. That look of love and longing. He wanted to see it again. But first Shadow had to please Sonic in the best way possible.

With his decrease in stamina, Shadow pounding away in him, and his cock getting rubbed in between their two bodies, Sonic didn't last long once again. He came again, the white seed clashing violently on Shadow's dark fur and nearly collapsed. Doing that three times in the past twelve hours really drained a person.

With Sonic cumming he tightened up even more. Pushing in as far as he could Shadow had to let go and cum with a moan. Catching his breath quickly he pulled out of the other with a sigh of bliss. Before collapsing next to his mate he gave him a lick on the forehead and then laid down. For a while the air was filled with nothing but their panting. "So... how was your first time?"

Shadow felt Sonic hold him closer and nuzzle him. He felt so full and stuffed and loved every second of it. "Great..." Sonic panted out, kissing Shadow's cheek. "Wouldn't...have wanted it any other way..."

"Good." Nuzzling Sonic back and purring loudly Shadow couldn't be much happier. Holding the blue hedgehog close he started kissing him wherever he could.

At one point Sonic moved so that Shadow kissed him on the lips, Sonic digging his tongue into Shadow's mouth to explore as much as he could. "Shadow..." Blue panted out as they pulled away. "I don't mean to go all girl on you here but...all that stuff just now... It meant more to me than anything. And... I guess that's why I can finally say this again."

He pulled Shadow into another kiss, this one much shorter but not any less passionate. "I love you. Have for a while. I was just too scared to say so until now."

Smiling Shadow put a hand on Sonic's cheek, eyes half lid and looking similar to the way Sonic did to him the other night. "I had a feeling that's how you felt." Leaning up he gave the blue hedgehog in front of him a very passionate brief kiss as well. "I love you... and can't figure out how you stole my heart so quickly."

The blue hedgehog grinned. He tried not to show it but inside he was thrilled that Shadow said those words back. "Heh... What can I say?" Sonic purred while lacing his fingers with Shadow's. "I like to move fast."

Chuckling and leaning his head back Shadow purred as he held Sonic's had back tightly. "I can see that." Nuzzling his mate a bit he had to pull him close. "I have to confess. I hope that this lasts..."

"You and me both, pal." Sonic didn't want to sound cliche but he couldn't help but think that the last twelve hours were the best twelve hours of his life. He finally got the guy of his dreams and he even felt the same way. Sonic couldn't be happier.

Laying in silence eventually Shadow fell asleep with Sonic still in his arms. It wasn't till noon that he woke again, the blue hedgehog sleeping save and sound in his arms still. Smiling he pecked Sonic on the forehead. Carefully the dark hedgehog removed his mate from his arms so he could stretch a bit.

It was a good thing he locked the door. Streaks had a nasty habit of barging into his brother's room when he didn't get up to make breakfast if he didn't have school.

"Shadow!" There was a loud knock at the door. Speak of the devil. "What're you doing? I'm hungry!"

Sighing Shadow had to shake his head. Hearing a groan he looked down to see that the knock had woken up his bed mate. "Be out in a bit Streaks! Order pizza." Laying down and nuzzling the blue hedgehog he purred. "Have a good rest?"

"Mngh..." It was clear Sonic was still half asleep. He looked up at Shadow, dazed. "What's all the noise...?"

"Streaks. He got home and is hungry." Brushing some quills he couldn't help but smile at how his boyfriend looked. "I'm going to go take a quick shower. You just rest as long as you like. When the food gets here I'll wake you."

"Kay..." As the blue hedgehog lied down, a sudden jolt of pain went up his spine and he winced. "Agh..."

Shadow rose a brow. "Sore?"

"Of course I am! How are you not?"

"It's been a while but my body is use to it. Over time yours will too." Leaning down and giving Sonic a peck, Shadow crawled out of bed. Going over to his closet he got his bath robe and threw it on. "Just relax."

"Yeah..." It felt like all Sonic could do was sleep. His body was beyond tired but still burned wonderfully from their actions. Even if he was a little sore, Sonic didn't mind. He knew it would happen anyway.

Going to the bathroom Shadow quickly jumped in the shower. Clearly Streaks had used it earlier being there was blue around the drain. Once clean Shadow made his way back to his room, ears twitching to Streaks playing one of his games. Getting dressed he almost had to admire Sonic as he slept. He's beautiful. I don't think he realizes that.

Shadow's ears twitched as he heard a phone ring. The ringtone wasn't his so he could only assume it was Sonic's. Going over to their discarded clothes, Shadow's face fell when he saw the rags of what remained of Sonic's clothes. After his transformation they tended to get quite tattered.

Hoping Sonic wouldn't mind, Shadow took Sonic's phone out of his pocket just to see who it was so he could tell the blue hedgehog later. It was a number that wasn't programmed into Sonic's phone. Odd. Probably nothing important.

Putting the phone next to Sonic, and giving him a peck on the cheek Shadow smiled. Turning he left, resting on the couch. Didn't take too long for the pizza to get there. Streaks rushed out of his room when he heard it and got to the door. "Hey! Thanks for getting here so quickly." Shadow had to smile as his brother paid for it before rushing it to the kitchen.

"Hey, so," Streaks started as he walked out with two plates of pizza, handing one to Shadow. "Where's Sonic? He still sleeping?" The younger hedgehog was all for sleeping in but this was kind of ridiculous.

"Sonic's had a bit of a rough night. Let me go get him." Getting up Shadow went back in his room, moving over to the sleeping hedgehog in his bed. "Sonic... food is here. Time to get up."

"Mmmn..." Sonic's ears twitched and he blinked awake slowly. "Food...?" That seemed to be the magic word to wake the blue hedgehog up. Kind of like his brother.

Chuckling Shadow nodded. "Yes. Pizza. You can barrow some clothes if you like... though I think you should shower before you eat."

"Um yeah..." One look at himself made Sonic blush. He'd made quite a mess of himself. "Could I borrow a robe too? No need to scare your brother out of his mind."

"Of course." Moving to the closet Shadow took out another robe and handed it to Sonic. "Why don't we have dinner tonight?... just you and me. After last night I feel like we have to."

Saying thanks, Sonic was in the middle of putting on the robe before Shadow mentioned dinner. "Sure..." he replied with a lovestruck smile. "I'd love to."

"Good." Going over to Sonic and rapping his arms around him he nuzzled the side of his head. "And you should spend the night too. I hope your roommate won't mind me stealing you for so long."

"Nah. He's probably happy for the alone time with his girlfriend anyway." Wincing again, Sonic almost limped his way out of the room and looked around. Streaks seemed to be glued to the TV so hopefully he wouldn't notice the blue hedgehog slip into the shower.

Shadow went and got some pizza for himself. Sitting down with his brother he started watching the cartoon that was one. Something about them reminded him of simple days. Leaning back him and his brother just ate.

As the days went on it was rare that Sonic was even at his apartment. He would usually be at Shadow's place. Both of them just enjoying all that the other could give. Sonic even started to help his boyfriend cook.

One day as they were preparing a meatloaf the dark hedgehog seemed a bit lost in thought. Sonic barely noticed as he was chopping vegetables. "Sonic... I've been thinking..."

"Hmm?" Sonic turned at smiled at his boyfriend. "So what else is new? You're always thinking."

Nodding he looked to the blue hedgehog. "Yes... but this is a little different. It's just... I don't think we can keep doing what we did last new moon."

"Well yeah. I mean I'm sure we can't keep it up forever but I'm sure you'll have found a cure by the time people start getting suspicious, right? Couldn't I just say that I'm staying at your place those nights?"

"Well yes but I was thinking on the lines of something a little more permanent." Shadow was mixing the meat and could hear Sonic stopped chopping to look over to him. Not sure what was going through Shadow's mind. Though he did learn Shadow was a horrible tease and part of that was he liked to slowly play into what he wanted to say when he was playing. "I was just thinking... maybe you should just move in. You are here most of the time anyways."

There was that blush again that Shadow learned to love so much. Making Sonic embarrassed was just too fun. "R-really? Move in here?" Sonic would have said yes immediately but a few things held him back. "Are you sure? What about Streaks? And... I'm falling a little behind in rent so I don't think I could pay it..."

Chuckling Shadow just shook his head. "Rent is not an issue. You don't even have to pay if you live here. Streaks won't mind, I've already talked to him about it. Next year he is going to be finishing up high school and then he'll be off to New York anyways. What? Are you saying you wouldn't be comfortable living with me?"

"I didn't say that..." Nervously Sonic scratched behind his head. "But what do you mean I don't have to pay rent if I live here?"

"Exactly as it sounds. You said you were behind. I can help keep you up your pay and even if you wanted just pay the whole rent. If you live here you don't have to worry about a thing. I'll take care of you, especially when you are down on your feet."

"Shadow..." To say Sonic was flattered was an understatement. Shadow's kindness continued to amaze him. Going over and kissing Shadow on the cheek, Sonic nuzzled his neck. "I appreciate it... but I can't ask you to do something like that for me."

"You aren't asking, I'm offering. Plus you still have not answered me." Nuzzling back a slight purr came. But Shadow didn't understand why Sonic was always so reluctant about taking things when offered. Maybe he was just being polite.

"I'd love to move in with you. Really." This was actually perfect because Knuckles was talking about moving in with Julie-Su as well. But if Sonic moved then the female echidna could move in there instead and save Knuckles the hassle of dealing with Julie's dysfunctional family. "But you don't have to pay for me. I'm a little late on this month's rent but I'll make it up."

Chuckling a bit Shadow pecked Sonic on the cheek. "Well good. As soon as you can I think you should start moving."

"I'll talk to Knux about it." With that Sonic pulled Shadow into a short but passionate kiss. He couldn't believe how lucky he was to snag someone like Shadow.

After cooking and eating that food Sonic rushed home to find Knuckles looking bored on the couch. Looking over the echidna had to smile to his friend. "Hey! And here I was thinking you were spending the night with Shadow again."

"Well I wasn't going to, for the record." Admittedly Sonic felt a little bad leaving Knuckles alone a lot like this. He hoped his friend didn't think he was abandoning him because of this. "But hey. Remember when you said you wished 'Su could move in here?"

"Yeah. Boy that would be nice living with my girl." Smiling it was clear Knuckles dreamed about living with her. Of course after how long they had been dating it made sense. There was a time Sonic over heard them planning a future together.

"Well hey, you might get your wish. Shadow offered me to move in with him. So if I move out you could have her move in with you."

"What!?" Getting up Knuckles had to go over and hug Sonic. "This is great! With the way you two have been acting I was sure that you would eventually. It's about time you had something go right for you Sonic!"

He really couldn't ask for better friends. Grinning at Knuckles, Sonic replied, "Thanks, Red. I'm glad you're gonna be getting your way too. You and Julie probably should have moved in together a long time ago, huh?" Things were going better for Sonic then they have been for the past few years or so.

Now if only Zonic and I...were on speaking terms... The two brothers hadn't spoken a word to each other since their birthday.

"Yeah!" Knuckles grinned before rushing over to his phone. "I need to call Su and tell her the good news!"
