Disclaimer: o_O Story thing written in a moment of boredom. Just a little. Slightly lemony. Piece involving Lari-Da Echidna, a character of mine, and
her lover, Storm the Hedgehog. Uh..Yeah. -points to random ten-year-old reading this- You! Get out! I don't feel like being sued by anyone. -cough- Yes, this is the first piece worth reading that I'm uploading onto FF.net.

In, out, in, out, in, out.

The rhythm played over and over again in the ebony hedgehog's mind, faster and faster as seconds quickly turned to minutes. Sweat dampened his onyx fur, spines hanging limp at the nape of his neck. Well muscled chest heaving, he wasn't sure how much longer he could hold out. Beneath him, an echidna equally as dark as he lay, her cranium thrown back, skull resting against a pillow. Rubine orbs lightly lidded, there was a look of pure ecstasy upon her delicate features, her lithe, sinewy arms wrapped loosely about her mate's neck.

In, out, in, out, in, out.

The two moved and breathed as one, both caught up in that most sacred of embraces, a mating dance, the union of one anthropomorphic warrior with another, the union of hedgehog and echidna. Then, at the same moment, both reached their climax, the masculine, spined hedgehog's body giving a brief, momentary shudder, his mate bucking beneath him, a small gasp escaping her full, pouting lips. In the next instant, both were still. Storm's chest was heaving, and he slowly allowed his two-toned eyes to slide shut, attempting to catch his breath. Carefully, he slid his arms underneath Lari-Da, pulling her close in a passionate embrace. Intertwining strong, slender digits with the femora's long, dreadlock-like, spines, he inwardly smiled as he felt her plant a gentle kiss upon his neck. Ample bosom pressed against his exposed chest, the obsidian fatale' grinned as well, burying her tawny snout within her lover's sweat-dampened fur.

With Lari secure in his arms, Storm carefully rolled over, laying on his back, allowing his mate to lay on his chest. Lifting her head, the female's gaze met the male's, and both smiled, gently touching snouts for a mere moment before Lari lay her head down again, skull resting on his chest, ear over his heart. Thin phalange tracing the outline of the ivorn lightning bolt patch of fur that, by memory, she knew rested on his upper left arm, the echidna smiled as she now felt his lips against her fur, lips pressed against the top of her skull for a mere instant before familiar, rumbling baritones reached her,

"I love you, Lari-Da."

Smile growing even broader than it had been a moment before, Lari moved her head about to look up at Storm before she replied, and shook her head, chuckling wryly-Already the other had fallen asleep. Without reason or cause, she replied though, whispering softly her answer,

"I love you, too, Storm."

With that, she closed her eyes again, secure in her lifemate's strong arms, drifting off to sleep not long after.
