Of course trying doesn't mean succeeding.
Tonight was movie night, all of sonic and friends, except Knuckles and Cream, went to the movie. Cream was too young, and Knuckles was still recovering from the previous battle, though he would never admit it, he portrayed to everyone as if he was fine. He was always stubborn like that. He didn't care for any romance action movie anyway.
The only reason why Tails was there, was because Sonic begged him to not leave him alone with Amy. He understood how Amy gets during movies.
The movie was "Mr. And Mrs. Smith".
As they all watched, they could all randomly hear Amy shouting "don't go in there!" "Does she know that?" "Is that poisoned?" "don't drink it! It's poisoned!" "Sonic!!". Surely the annoyance of the evening.
"Hey blue boy, shut pinky up over there!" Rouge yelled across the theater, from her chair. She sat next to Shadow, naturally she had the largest container of popcorn that the ship had. And she did all she could to get it. She wouldn't dare share it with anyone, accept maybe Shadow, but he rarely had any anyway.
In part of the movie, the Mr. And Mrs. Smith did something similar to what Shadow and Rouge had done the night before. Shadow was intrigued by this. He looked over at Rouge slightly, then back to the screen. Rouge. It was interesting, Mr. And Mrs. Smith were both spies, Rouge was a spy, and Shadow had recently been asked to join the GUN force as a GUN agent. He was still thinking it over though.
He heard them mention something about love. Love, what was this love they spoke of? If they did the same things that Rouge and him did, did that mean that He loved her? It was so confusing.
Shadow looked over at her again. She scooped a handful of popcorn into her mouth, and swallowed it down. She looked back at him and smiled.
Shadow looked back at the screen.
During the movie, Shadow unconsciously put his arm around Rouge, by having it behind her, on her chair. Rouge noticed this, and leaned a bit on his shoulder. Shadow had a feeling inside him he could not describe. He tried to ignore it, and watched the movie. They were 4 rows down from Amy, Sonic, and Tails.
Amy elbowed Sonic on the side. "Hey.. Sonic… look down there" Amy whispered, pointing to Rouge and Shadow.
Sonic took his eyes off the screen and looked down there. "Hey hey, looks like Shadow's finally found something worth while" Sonic whispered.
"Hmph, even if it is sweet, I think they disserve each other. I don't like Rouge." Amy said.
Sonic shrugged and continued to watch the movie.
After the movie, Shadow and Rouge were the last ones to leave; they walked close together, but quietly.
"That movie wasn't half bad" Rouge said, breaking the silence.
Shadow nodded, walking beside her.
"What did you think of it?" Rouge asked.
"..Rouge, what is.. love?…" Shadow asked, stopping in front of her, is back to her.
"Well…. It's hard to say… " Rouge said.
Shadow listened.
"Hmm… welll…." Rouge stepped in front of him. "It's when you care about somebody. You know…you'll always be by their side, no matter what happens… Its hard to say…" Rouge took a few steps ahead, her hands on her hips thinking.
Shadow looked down thinking. He paused for a while, Rouge looked back at him.
"hmm.. well lets get out of here, I don't know about you, but I'm not tired. Lets go have some fun." Rouge started walking ahead of him.
He nodded and followed.
