Chapter 5: Morning After
"Oh, what a beautiful sight, like something out of a paining."
Bunnie's eyes slowly batted open as she awoke, still in Shadow's arms on the couch. As she gained her bearings, she looked behind to see Rouge standing over them.
"Rouge?!"
Shadow had now woken up, looking at Rouge standing in front of him with Bunnie in his arms; under normal circumstances, this scene would've been a catastrophe, but it was Rouge who set it up to begin with.
Bunnie jumped up from the couch, almost in response to being caught; then quickly straightened out her clothes, which she fell asleep in.
"My, it looks like I missed quite the night, or did you feel guilty about doing anything behind my back?"
"This was your idea."
Rouge giggled at Shadow's statement. "You're right, but you should have seen the look on your faces when I woke you up; it was like a man and his mistress being caught by his wife."
"Hardy har har."
The bat turned to the rabbit. "So, it looks like you didn't have the nerve after all; just how far did things go?"
"Far enough."
Rouge noted the slight tinge in Bunnie's voice. "Still harboring a grudge?"
"No, just a little disappointed in mahself."
"Well, chin up; and if you have any problems, I really wish you'd come and talk to me, I'd be glad to help. In the meantime, I've had quite the night and I need a shower."
Rouge reached over and grabbed Shadow's arm, pulling him off the couch and dragging him away. "Come on, I need someone to scrub my wings."
Bunnie watched as the pair left, and sighed. All the while she had something nagging her, and quickly looked around the floor. Under the coffee table, thankfully not seen by Rouge, was a pair of panties that were dropped there last night. The rabbit picked them up and quickly pushed them in a pocket.
"He's not yours yet, not by a long shot."
