Chapter 8: Playing pretend.
2 WEEKS LATER.
It was now spring. Brids were chirping, the sky was clear, everything just look nice. It seemed like a good day to go outside but 2 henghogs stayed in doors.
Sonic was looking out the window in his bed wishing to go outside.
"You really want to go outside don't you"Shadow ask.
"Yeah. It's been 3 months SHads and now all I do is just stay in here and get more rest"Sonic fronwed.
"Rose says it will take alot time for you to be recovered"Shadow said.
"I know"Sonic said then look at Shadow and smiled. 'I want to ask him but is it to much to ask'Sonic thought.
'I'll ask him later'Sonic thought.
"Your always smileing even when something like this happens to you"Shadow said.
"Yeah because like Maria something bad always takes the place of another bad thing so if I keep silmeing things might change I know it's a 50 50 chance but I can't really do a whole lot with 1 leg"Sonic smiled.
'Something about this doesn't feel right or at least to me'Shadow thought.
"Shads whats wrong"Sonic ask.
"Nothing i'm just a little tired"Shadow lied.
"Thats all"Sonic ask.
"Yeah don't worry about it"Shadow said.
"Okay"Sonic smiled then layed down on the bed.
'This faker dosen't ask to much all he ask is food and something to drink and that tends to be it so techally all i'm doing is watching him'Shadow thought 'And everytime I look at him when he's sleeping and awake I get a very strong feeling something's wrong. Why am I thinking like this it's not like I care to much about that Faker. I guess i'm just happy he's okay. But why? Why did Eggman wanted to kill him then again when I think about it Sonic always stops Eggman's plans from taking over the world I guess Eggman finally went insane after he couldn't take that fact Sonic always saves the day'Shadow thought.
"Yo Shads your stairing off to space again"Sonic smiled.
'Maybe I should worry about it later'Shadow thought. "What you don't like it when I daydream or something"Shadow ask.
"No it's just that you look alitte worried when you do that. Are you sure nothing is bothering you"Sonic ask.
"Nope"Shadow answeared.
A knock was on the door and it open to see Tails with comics in his hand. "Hey sorry for bothering you two but I thought I bring some comics for Sonic"Tails smiled.
"REALLY THANKS TAILS"Sonic smiled.
"Here you go"Tails gave SOnic the comics.
"THANK YOU SO MUCH"Sonic smiled.
"Anytime Sonic. Also me and Rose are gonna get you tv in here and some dvds were just still debeting on which type of Tv we should get"Tails smiled.
"Thanks Tails I owe you one"SOnic smiled.
"Its okay Sonic really. I was glad to give you them well I still gotta debate with Rose see you"Tails waved good bye and left.
"That was nice of him. I better do something nice for him when i'm my feet or should I say foot"Sonic smiled.
Shadow look Sonic "Your really joking about that"Shadow ask.
"Yeah I just had to"Sonic smiled and started reading a comic.
Shadow sigh and started to think again. 'It's so strange. He's always so damn happy. Why is it. It likes he's happy being with one leg'Shadow thought.
"Shads you gotta stop have that worried face. Here"Sonic gave one of the comics to Shadow. "Here you wanna read a comic"Sonic ask with a smile.
Shadow gave it thought and said "Fine"Shadow started reading the comic.
1 WEEK LATER.
All the comics both SOnic Shadow read were finshed reading and they both had nothing to do. Thats when Maria came in with a tray with 2 glass clear cups with pink lemoade.
"Hey I hope i'm not bothering you two"Maria ask with a smile.
"No we weren't doing anything"Shadow said.
"Oh we-AH"Maria fell and both of the drinks spilled.
"MARIA"Shadow ran to Maria and help her up "Are you okay"Shadow ask.
"Yeah but wish I could say the same for the lemoade"Maria giggled.
"It's fine"Sonic smiled.
"Still I made them for you to"Maria frowned. "I'll just go make more"Maria smiled.
"No I'll make more"Shadow offered.
"It's okay Shadow I don't mind making more"Maria smiled.
"It's okay really"Shadow said.
"Well okay then I'll stay here with Sonic"Maria offered.
"Okay"Sonic smiled.
"Okay then would you like some lemonade Maria"Shadow ask.
"No thank you"Maria smiled.
"Okay then i'll be back"Shadow said then left to make more and get a towel for the spilet lemoade.
"Man Maria your so lucky to have Shadow he's always so nice to you"Sonic smiled.
"You really think so I just think i'm lucky"Maria smiled.
Sonic giggle and so did Maria.
"So Maria Shadow's been stairing off into space alot I was wondering if you know what might be wrong"Sonic ask.
Maria look at Sonic and then remembered something "Well I might know one thing"Maria said.
"Really"Sonic smiled.
Maria then went to SOnic's bandaged ear and whispered "I think Shadow has a crush on you"Maria whispered.
Sonic blushed and was shock "A CRUSH ON ME"Sonic
"Yep" Maria smiled.
"Wait how do you he has a crush on me"Sonic ask.
"I only said ' I think' So it's a maybe"Maria smiled.
"Oh"Sonic smiled.
"Why do you have a crush on him"Maria ask.
"WHAT! No at least I don't think so"Sonic smiled.
"So it's a maybe for you to"Maria smiled.
"Yeah I guess"Sonic giggled. 'I can't take it. Once Shadow comes back and Maria leaves I'll ask Shadow'Sonic thought.
Shadow then returned with 2 glasses of pink lemonade "Here you go Faker"Shadow gave a glass to Sonic.
"Thanks Shads"Sonic smiled.
"I'll be back I'll clean up the spilled lemonade"Shadow said and left.

"So Blaze what do think is gonna happen to SOnic now"Silver ask.
"I wish I knew Silver"Blaze said.
"Oh"Silver gave a concern look and Blaze notice it"It's so strange not seeing Sonic run how will he get around and his life was all about running and adventure whats gonna happen now"Silver ask.
"Silver" Blaze smiled "Things happen in the world and we need to stay stronge are Sonic or he might never get use to his new life"Blaze smiled.
"Then what about adventures to save the world Sonic loved doing that"Silver fronwed.
"Then well find a way to bring him along with us. Sure it might be diffacult but thats why we care for Sonic he saved us more times then I can count and he always bring us on the adventure which I can't belive i'm going to admint but fun"Blaze smiled.
"So this is our way of saying thank you"Blaze smiled.
"Yeah"Silver smiled "BLAZE YOUR THE BEST"Silver smiled.
Shadow then qickly ran and got what he needed and ran back to Sonic's room.

'Finally she's gone now I can Shadow'Sonic thought.
Sonic was about to ask Shadow something and Shadow look at Sonic.
"Whats wrong Faker"Shadow ask.
Sonic smiled and was about to ask Shadow something when Sonic felt deep pain.
"Ah!"Sonic screamed but not loud enoghe for everyone to hear just him and Shadow heard alone.
"Sonic are you alright"Shadow ask.
