She's not the same. I didn't mean to do it. I really didn't. Now she's gone. With them. Glaring at me. And he's staring at her like I want to.. ShadAmySonic.

I only own the play and most of the characters used in it, and also, I own Karou.

Black Shaded Roses

Thanks again to my reviewers! Only two of you this time.. ;; But they still made me smile! And since there's only two, I'll answer them.

Warior- Hehe, this made me laugh. Sounds tempting, but I have my own plans for Shun.. -laughs maniacally-

Krannapple- I don't care! . It depends on your idea, if they'd be a part of it or not.

THANKS GUYS!

I love you all. In a platonic way. Also, I have no excuse for taking so long. Well, I kinda do. I've had a lot of work to do on an ff site my friend and I are making. I'm very sorry, and hope you'll still read and review. I will update as soon as I get inspiration and time. I hope this doesn't seem too forced.

Her amber-brown eyes widened.

" Oh.. dear.. Come in. " they carried him to the couch, then heaved him up into Cream's room and onto her bed.

" It looks like he just fainted. He'll be fine. " Amy said, calming the rabbit girl down.

Where.. am I? I'm floating..

Shadow?

Who's there?

Shadow.. Vanilla, why isn't he waking up?

A..amy?

Amy, calm down! He's going to be alright!

I am?

How can you say that when he's not breathing!

...I'm.. not?

Amy! Call someone! Do something!

Cream.. Vanilla... Amy.

Okay, okay!

Woah.. hey, wait.. Amy!

Cerise eyes fluttered open, staring up to see two pairs of amber brown eyes and one apple green pair. He sucked in his breath, then gasped out, finally breathing. He sputtered and choked before Vanilla handed him a glass of water, and Shadow hastily downed it. He was suddenly embraced by the females, and he scowled, an unnoticable blush on his muzzle. He was showered with sayings that really all referred to ' I'm soooo glad you're okay! '. Only one comment stood out to him.

" Welcome back to the world of the living, Shadow. " he blinked, watching the rose shaded hedgehog.

" Uh.. thanks? " he said raspily, his vocal cords worn. He inwardly winced. His throat was sore.

" Don't speak. Just rest. "

She walked out of the room as Shadow slightly dozed half-way, talking about nonsense and suddenly yawning, falling asleep. A few hours later, he was awoken to only one pair of eyes in the darkness. Apple green.

" A-amy? "

" Shh. I came to talk to you. "

" Okay.. "

" Why did you faint? "

" ... I.. it was the heat. "

" Shadow, don't lie to me. " Amy said sternly.

" I heard you and Cream talking. "

" Oh, Shadow, I-- "

" I didn't mean to eavesdrop. But-- but then you said.. Shun.. you.. "

" Yeah.. " she gave a bitter laugh.

" So... "

" Yeah? "

" It's.. true. " he stated it more than asking it.

" Unfortunately, yes. "

" I'll do something. " she looked at him.

" No. "

" No. Amy Rose, I promise you. I will make your life better. " she smiled at him.

" Shadow.. " she leaned down next to him, and they both inwardly started to panic. Amy looked into his eyes, and for once, saw fear. Millions of emotions flooded them, and she just wanted to make it better. All in a magical moment, she closed the space between them, erasing any doubts from eithers' mind.

I... I like Shadow.. my best friend.
