A Shadow the Hedgehog story
Songfic – Shadow x Amy
"Then I Met You" the Proclaimers
Though that I'd be happy
Gonna be so happy living life alone
And never sharing anything
Shadow's eyes opened slowly. The silence of the night enveloped him, alone, lonely. A dream had awakened him, a happy dream, which dreaming in itself was new, but never happy.
Thought that I was finished, Thought that I was completeThought that I whole instead of being half of something
Thought that I was growing, growing older
Amy's eyes opened, the bed lonely because of it's emptiness. She turned over with a sob. She never awoke to another's arms waiting to comfort her after the old nightmare, the memory of her rejection.
Wiser, understanding why this world held nothing for my spirit
Thought that I was destined, destined to be nothing, destined
To be nothing in this world and then I Met You
Shadow heard the sob. He had not been far away. He dropped onto the window seal, his head cocked at the sight of Miss Amy Rose sobbing alone in bed. The forgotten believe they are alone until they find others of their kind… He thought to himself. He lowered himself silently to the floor.
I met youAmy sat up when she felt his weight on the bed. "Amy?" A kind, if rough, voice enquired. Her ears perked in recognition.
"Shadow?"
Thought that God had failed meThought my prayers were useless
Thought that he would never give the chance for me to praise him
Shadow smiled at the new light in her eyes. "Shadow!" She hugged him, nuzzling deep into the pale fur of his chest. His hand lifted to stroke the back of her head wonderingly. Perhaps not so forgotten after all…
Thought the book was writtenThought the game had ended
Thought the song was sung and I could never sing another
Amy sighed softly as she drifted off to sleep, half sprawled across Shadow's lap. She hoped he wouldn't be too terribly angery, but she was just so tired! They would be able to visit in the morning, however… When she could think strait again.
Thought my faith was misplaced
Thought my back was broken
Broken by a weight that I was never fit to carryAmy was not the only one emotionally exhausted, Shadow found out as he slipped off to sleep as well, pulling her closer to himself as he curled up on her bed. It was a first, but would not be a last.
Thought I knew this city, thought I knew all about itAnd then one night I went to Morningside and you were waiting
Then I Met You
Cuuuuuuute... But I had a flame. My response: Blink blink, shrug. Everyone's entitled to their own oppion. I guess I'll just go put up a ShadAmy warning in the Summary, huh?
