Chapter Five

The next morning, Rouge awakened to see her husband sleeping next to her, she smiled watching him sleep, he looked so peaceful. She then looked towards the clock on the bedside table.

It was half eight, the thoughts of last night came back to her when she had almost fainted in the restaurant, slowly she got out of bed trying not to awaken her husband. She walked up to the armchair where her clothes were. She quickly got dressed and left the room as quietly as she could.

Before she left she kissed Shadow's forehead, he didn't stir at her touch as he was so deadly asleep. As she left the room, She was worried, she had checked her room calendar and realised she hadn't had a period for two weeks, she then feared the worse, so she decided to go down to the hotel surgery where they would be able to tell her if she was or not….

Unknown to her, Razor was following her from her bedroom to the bottom of the hotel, he had been spying on them from the balcony, and now he had chaos controlled to the hallway to follow Rouge. As he followed her he kept his evil eyes on her body and his perverted thoughts returned to his head.

When Rouge arrived at the surgery, she was greeted by a female brown and black raccoon, the secretary; "Good morning love" said the raccoon lowering her spectacles so she could see Rouge clearly. "Morning" said Rouge; she then began to explain why she wanted to see the doctor.

The secretary nodded and asked her to have a seat, after about five minutes she was called to the surgery, when she walked in, she saw the doctor, a brown lioness preparing the surgery bed. "Ah come in" she said kindly. She shook Rouge's hand and asked her what the problem was.

Rouge took a deep breath, "last night" she said slowly "I almost fainted, I thought it was just the wine as I had been drinking last night with my meal at the beach restaurant, but then I remembered I hadn't had a period for a while, I thought I may as well check"

The lioness nodded understanding her and took her to a door in her room, then gave her a small container, "I'll take a urine sample and then I'll check it out" she said. Rouge nodded and went into the small cubicle. Outside the room Razor pressed his ear against the door listening "I wonder what she might have?" he thought "this will be interesting"

After a while the lioness had tested the urine she looked seriously at Rouge, "well Miss Rouge" she said "it appears that you are in fact six weeks pregnant", Rouge put her hand to her mouth in shock.

The lioness nodded her head, Rouge then took a deep breath and said thank you to the doctor. The Lioness then spoke about how Rouge should care for her unborn child by avoiding drinking and smoking or very physical activities. Rouge nodded understanding her and then thanking her again, then got up to leave.

Razor who was listening, his eyes went wide and his smirk got bigger, "this is precious!" he thought "perfect!" he rubbed his clawed hands together. "Now I know the perfect way to ruin everything! It will be an experience they will never forget!" he hid around the corner as Rouge left the surgery and began to walk up back up to her room. Razor watched her leave, and his eyes glowed.

When Rouge arrived back in her room, she saw Shadow beginning to stir; she sat next to him and stroked the side of his face. Shadow's eyes fluttered open and he saw her face. "Hey Rouge" he whispered, sitting up and moving closer to her to embrace her.

Rouge returned the embrace quite awkwardly, Shadow noticed her worried face and asked "what's wrong Rouge?" he asked, Rouge looked at him, "Shad…" she whispered "there's something I need to tell you...something's happened" Shadow stood up looking worried.

"What is it Rouge?" he asked concerned as he grasped her hands, he looked really worried. Rouge looked into his ruby eyes, "remember last night?" she whispered "when I almost fainted?" Shadow nodded, "I went to the surgery this morning while you were still asleep, and I…" she paused.

Shadow grasped her arms, "Rouge" he said gently but firmly "you have to tell me, I'm your husband Rouge, you can tell me anything!" Rouge bit her lip, "I wasn't sure at first, but I had to find out" she bit her lip again, then forced herself to look into Shadow's eyes.

"What is it?" said Shadow, the worry was still in his voice, but there was a hint of impatience in it too. "I…I…I'm pregnant" Rouge said, Shadow looked in her eyes not believing a word, he looked as though he would faint, "oh shit!" he said in a choked voice, he fell against the bed stand trying to steady himself.

"Shadow!" cried Rouge leaning towards him, "are you ok?" Shadow looked up at Rouge "are you serious?" he said, Rouge nodded, her heart was beating so fast it hurt, she wasn't expecting Shadow to act like this "I…I…I'm gonna be a father?" said Shadow. Rouge nodded "yes" she said.

Shadow then steadied himself and cupped Rouge's face with his hands, "why…that…that's…wonderful" he said trying to find the right words. "This is so unexpected" said Rouge "what are we going to do?" Shadow wrapped his arms around Rouge and embraced her. "I love you Rouge" he whispered "we'll work through it"

Rouge began to cry, she held Shadow closer to her and tears streamed down her cheeks, "oh Shad" she whispered "I love you" "I love you too" whispered Shadow stroking the back of her head to comfort her. Rouge held him tighter and smiled through her tears.

Later in the afternoon Shadow and Rouge decided to take a walk around the island, they were walking in the green area looking at all the exotic flowers, Shadow pulled Rouge closer to him, the whole area was very quiet as there was hardly anyone about.

It was indeed a perfect afternoon, the sun wasn't as hot and the shade of the trees made dancing shadows around the soft green floor. Rouge smiled as the cool breeze blew through her white hair. "It feels so perfect" she whispered, "such a perfect day" Shadow smiled down at Rouge and pulled her closer.

Soon they came to a dark shady area where there was a large tree to rest against, Shadow sat down and Rouge leaned against him, "When we get home Shadow" said Rouge "I'm gonna set up the baby's room" Shadow smiled down at Rouge and continued to stroke her hair, "we'll work through it"

Rouge smiled and snuggled closer to Shadow, she rested her head on his soft white chest fur and closed her eyes, soon lulled by the warmth of the air, Shadow stroking her hair and the soft thud of his heart in his chest, she began to fall asleep.

Much later, Rouge opened her eyes to see a coppery gold wash over the greenery; she could feel the softness of Shadow's chest fur against her cheek. As she stirred she felt Shadow's arms tighten around her.

"Hey sleepy head" he whispered "you've been asleep awhile" Rouge yawned and rubbed her eyes, "the suns almost down" said Shadow, Rouge sat up and looked towards the beach. "It's still high in the sky" she whispered "it hasn't quite set!" Shadow stood up and stretched, then helped Rouge up.

"Let's go down to the beach!" said Rouge excitedly "so we can watch the sunset!" Shadow nodded and they walked down towards the beach, when they got there, they were surprised at how empty it was. Shadow looked across to Rouge and smirked; they then sat about a few feet away from the gentle rolling tide and watched the sun cause a coppery gold on the rippling sea.

Rouge stared at the sunset ahead, she looked at Shadow who was also staring at the sunset, he then turned to her, he then leaned towards her, "its beautiful isn't it?" she said, she looked around the beach, "yeah" said Shadow stroking her hand with his "no-body about, just us, alone, with only the sun, sea and sand"

A cool wind blew making his quills ripple in the wind. He then felt Rouge's hand move up to his shoulder, then up to his neck, he then felt Rouge's delicate hand on his cheek, stroking it gently. "We are completely alone Shad" she whispered, she smiled seductively at him.

Shadow smirked back and wrapped his arms around her, pressing his lips against hers in a passionate kiss, Rouge moaned as she felt his tongue explore her mouth, she then felt Shadow run his hand over her thigh and then wrap one leg around his waist. "You're so beautiful Rouge" he whispered.

Rouge giggled, then she moaned as Shadow's lips touched hers an their tongues started fighting, Shadow then began to fiddle with her top, Rouge giggled as Shadow pulled it off, he then began to kiss down her neck to her breasts again, she wasn't wearing a bra.

Rouge moaned then Shadow began to slowly peel off his clothes, Rouge lay down on the soft sand and waited for Shadow, as soon as she lay down, Shadow lay on top of her and began to kiss down her neck to her breasts. Rouge moaned as Shadow began to gently lick her nipples.

Rouge reached between his legs to feel for his manhood, she found it, standing up at eight inches long, Shadow moaned as she began to massage it, Shadow then pressed his large organ against her clit, tickling it, then pushed himself into her moist entrance. Rouge gasped at the sudden pleasure she felt.

Shadow then began to thrust himself in and out of her vagina, Rouge moaned louder as he went faster, "oh Shadow…" she gasped "harder, faster" Shadow went faster and deeper, he held onto her hips and thrust harder. Rouge spread her arms over her head surrendering to the passion.

"More…more" she demanded, Shadow smirked "I love you Rouge" he said pushing harder, as he did, he released himself into her, the fluid overflowed from her vagina and dripped on the sand. "It feels so good" Rouge gasped. Shadow held her close, and Rouge ran her hands over his quills.

After a while they pulled their clothes back on, "that was wonderful Shad" Rouge whispered "that was a truly interesting experience" Shadow smirked, "yeah, sex on the beach huh?", "truly amazing" said a voice behind them. Shadow looked behind them and he saw Razor standing a few feet away behind them. "Who the fuck are you?" snarled Shadow looking up at the smirking wolf.

Razor's smile got wider, "have a little more respect hedgehog" he said "I've come to give you a message from my Master, Eggman" Shadow scoffed "oh yeah!" he said "you taking over that little pipsqueak Bokkun's job?" Razor's smirk never faded, "Eggman's not happy I'm afraid Shadow" he said.

"What? Because we left the business?" snarled Shadow "forget loser, we're not going back to Eggman" Rouge nodded. Razor then walked towards them, "he also sent me to do more than give you a message" he whispered. He walked towards them and over to Rouge who grasped a hold of Shadow in fear.

Shadow clenched his fist, Razor's eyes glowed as he walked closer to Rouge, Shadow couldn't take it anymore, he leapt towards Razor and bared his teeth at the wolf, but the wolf smirked and punched Shadow in the face. Shadow fell to the floor in shock, "Shadow!" screamed Rouge, she ran over to help him when she was grabbed from behind by Razor.

Rouge screamed as the wolf pulled her towards him and held her in a tight grip, Rouge tried to struggle, Shadow then looked up and saw Razor holding Rouge, "Get your hands off her!" he yelled. He jumped up, his hands glowing yellow, "Chaos spear!" he yelled.

The yellow spears flew from his hands towards Razor, but Razor smirked "Chaos Block!" he yelled and a red shield appeared repelling the spears. "Nice try hedgehog" he smirked "you're beauty's mine now!" he pulled a red chaos emerald out of his pocket. Rouge's eyes widened in terror.

"NO!" yelled Shadow, Razor smirked again, "chaos control now!" he said, and he vanished in a red light with a terrified Rouge hostage. Shadow watched them vanish, he stared at the spot where they vanished and anger filled his heart. "Eggman!!" he growled. "You're gonna pay!" he pulled out a green chaos emerald, "Chaos control" he said as he disappeared in the green light.
