Sarah belongs to me.

Chapter Four:

The First Day

Shadow opened his eyes and looked around the room.

It wasn't big, but it wasn't small either, it was…like a home-type, it felt nice and cozy or maybe that was because Amy was sleeping with him. He looked down at his sleeping girlfriend; she was using his chest fur as a pillow. He chuckled at that, she was beautiful and he loved her. He kissed her forehead and she moved, moaning in protest.

He smiled softly and tickled her a little. She moved around more and green eyes met red, "Shadow!"

"Shhh, everyone's still sleeping Rose," he whispered into the crook of her neck.

"Then don't tickle me!" she yelled.

He kissed her then pulled away, "Rose, be quiet," he whispered as if she were a child.

She stuck her tongue out. "You might want to put that back in," he told her.

She did, he'd done it before, "I am," she smiled as innocently as she could muster.

He rolled his eyes as she kissed his cheek. She got up and he whined, holding out his arms for her to stay. She looked at him with her hands on her hips playfully, "Shadow, you do not whine."

He gave her his puppy dog eyes. "No not those eyes!" she said looking away, putting her hands up to refuse even more.

He made a whining noise and she sighed, "Fine!" getting back in the bed with him and glaring at him.

It was his turn to smile innocently.

"Breakfast is served!" Sarah said handing people their plates of eggs with bacon and hash browns.

Knuckles stared at his. "You okay, Knuxie?" Rouge asked, looking over at her boyfriend with concern.

"Why is it called breakfast?" he inquired as mostly everyone laughed or rolled their eyes.

"What?"

"I guess we'll ignore you as well," Sonic mumbled while eating.

"Hey!" Manic said, glaring at his brother.

Scourge smirked at Manic while Charmy pulled back his fork.

"Hey! Damn you, Charmy!" Scourge growled, wiping the hash browns and ketchup off his face.

Sonic busted out laughing but stopped when someone did the same to him, "Who did that!"

His eyes landed on one familiar black hedgehog who was smiling at him with his fork inside his mouth, "Good food, huh, Sonic?"

Sonic glared at Shadow and was about to fling some hash browns at him when he saw Sarah's face, she was glaring.

"Sweetie?" Sonic tried not to stammer.

"No food fights!"

Silence.

Everyone went back to eating with Scourge glaring at Charmy. When Charmy saw, he stuck his tongue out, but stopped when Scourge lifted his finger and brought it across his throat, horizontal. Charmy's eyes widened and he went back to eating.

"Come on, Sonic, it's not that bad!" Amy encouraged.

Shadow, Amy, and Sarah were in the creek. Sonic was being a little baby and wouldn't go in. Tails and Cream were upriver with Big, who was fishing. Scourge and Fiona were somewhere and God knows who wanted to find out what they were doing. Silver and Blaze were waiting for Sonic to go in, then they would.

"Come on, Sonic!" Sarah motioned for her boyfriend to walk in.

"N-no!" he stuttered.

Silver sighed, "Sonic, remember when we went bungee jumping? You weren't afraid then were you?"

Sonic shook his head, "No, that's because you guys pushed me."

"Oh, right," Silver quickly pushed the blue blur in the water.

"Hey!" Sonic said getting up.

"Come on!" Sarah hollered.

"No! I'm getting out!" He made his way out as Silver and Blaze made their way in.

"Blaze, isn't afraid of it! Why should you be?" Shadow asked.

"I just am!" Sonic waved him off.

Amy lost her balance and hit Sarah, "Sarah!"

Sarah screamed and was dragged with the current downstream. Sonic stopped in the water, "Sarah! Hold on! I'm coming!"

Amy laughed after Sonic disappeared with Sarah.

"What?" Shadow questioned, looking his girlfriend.

"She told me to do that this morning because we both know he wouldn't go in!" she laughed.

"I can't believe it; I was tricked twice in less than two minutes!" Sonic said.

They were around the campfire, Shadow had Amy on his lap. She was making them a s'more while Sarah was on Sonic's lap doing the same. Knuckles had Rouge in his chair while he set up a game of horseshoes, "Who would've thought they would let us borrow these?" he asked himself.

"They came with the cabin," Sarah answered.

"Oh…" he whispered.

Cream giggled as she pulled in the stick with the marshmallow while Tails held out the graham cracker with the chocolate. He closed and kissed her cheek, "Looks delicious."

She giggled and bit it, "It is."

Vector was trying to help Espio get the chocolate and marshmallows away from Charmy. When really he already tripped Espio by accident making the bag of marshmallows fly out of his hand and letting Charmy eat that whole bag up.

"Yummy!"

"Vector…"

"Sorry, Espio…"

Amy giggled at the two with the girls. Sonia sat in her chair with Manic by her; he was making them some s'mores since she was wasting marshmallows by letting them melt too much then having them falling in the fire. Amy leaned back and sighed, "Getting tired of holding it?" Shadow asked.

She let him hold it as she held the graham cracker with chocolate on it.

"Is it done yet?"

She looked over to the whining blue hedgehog and laughed, "It'll get done when it gets done Sonic!" Sarah said at least for the fiftieth time.

Shadow pulled it in and put the marshmallow on the chocolate. Amy closed it and took a big bite, "Hey! That was mine!" Shadow whined.

Amy kept chewing as she look at him, she swallowed, "Not anymore," she finished it off.

"That was cruel Rose…too cruel….." he narrowed his eyebrows.

She shrugged and grabbed another marshmallow with the stick, "Oh well."

After a game of horseshoes which Knuckles and Shadow won, beating Silver and Sonic, everyone headed to bed. Amy walked up the stairs and yelped a little when Shadow picked her up, slinging her over his shoulder and running upstairs.

"Shadow!" she yelped.

He dropped her on the bed, "Shadow don't!" she screamed.

"I'm going to!"

"No, stop, stay right there," Amy warned.

Too late. He had gotten in the shower first.

"Damn you, Shadow!" Amy yelled.

"You take too long!" was heard from the other side of the door.

Amy stopped and smirked, "Why don't we take one together?" she asked sweetly.

Silence. Amy had thought she got him, but she wasn't always right.

"Nope! You tricked with me this before remember?"

She pouted though she knew he couldn't see, "Fine, no fun tonight!" she said emphasizing the fun in there.

Silence. This time it was longer. On the other side of the door was a thinking Shadow, he had already gotten his shirt off but was thinking about it, 'We never do it…I believe she's lying…one, we never did it and two, she wouldn't want to do it with a cabin full of people...soooo…nice try Amy Rose, you were close…very close,' he thought smirking, "Nope!"

Amy huffed when she heard the water going, 'That dumb hedgehog…why did he have to be so smart and actually think about it?' she thought.
