Chapter 2 : Blue or Black?

Azure hedgehog sat with his sleeping fluffy lover in his arms. He never slept, sure he couldn't. He had too much on his mind, his lover had been cutting himself, and he discovered Silver's ex is coming to visit this Saturday "That's tomorrow." he sighed, resting his chin on the top of his lover's head. He was truly afraid, and yet truly, TRULY angry at the same time. He was afraid, that HIS fluffy lover, would run back to Shadow. He was also angry, at the fact that Shadow just, left! Just left Silver, alone, scared, vulnerable, and now he just suddenly wants to come back?

Sonic sighed as he gently stroked behind his lover's ears. He smiled as he heard the younger in his arms purring softly. He smiled, and gently kissed the top of the sleeping hedgehog's head. Before his gaze turned to the window, the sun was starting to rise. Still to early to make breakfast, and he didn't want to wake his lover, so he thought an early morning run would help pass the time, and help clear his head.

Smiling, Sonic rolled his young lover onto his stomach, the younger automatically wrapping his arms around his very own Sonic plushy. Sonic smile, became a grin, and he gently kissed his lover's head, before slipping on the shoes he had gotten from the wardrobe earlier. The azure hedgehog sighed, as he stared at the crumpled up piece of paper on the floor, before heading out the bedroom door, quiet closing it afterwards, and walked down the hall way being careful not make noise.

Now standing next to the banister, Sonic threw his leg over it, and hoisted himself up, he slid down the banister, almost falling off as he got to the end. "Whoa." He laughed quietly, and hopped off the banister, and headed out the front, again quietly closing it behind him.

Sonic stared out at the quiet street, the odd car passing by now and then. He smiled as he took in the fresh smell of the damp, morning air. He sniffed the air once more, before darting off in a blue blur, heading for Twinkle Park.

The azure blur sighed, he loved feeling the cold air against his face, the wind blowing through his quills. He loved running, that much was quite obvious, everyone could see it. But ironically, no one had noticed he had a love for a certain ivory hedgehog. At least, know copped on until Sonic and his lover had come out.

Azure's smile faded from his lips, and he slowed down to a walk. He ripped his gaze away from scenery, to his shoes. He was thinking about the letter again, and how much he wanted to tear his dark rival's limbs off! Tomorrow he would have the chance to do so! But it probably will not happen, as he knew it would upset HIS ivory lover.

Sighing, the sapphire hedgehog ran a hand through his quills, his head tilting upwards, to he was just about to enter see the park. His ears twitched every now and then at the sounds of the birds chirping, and sweet singing.

Sonic chewed his lip as he thought about tomorrow. Silver had never told him about Shadow returning. It hurt him a little bit, did his lover not even trust him enough to tell him about the visitor? Perhaps, he didn't want Sonic getting worried. Yet, ironically, the azure, hedgehog already had enough to worry about. His lover was hurting himself, and his ebony rival, who also, happened to be the ivory furies, lover, before they had an argument, which caused the ebony one to run. That was almost a half of a year ago! Why such a big gap, before deciding to come back?

A deep sigh passed peach lips as the hedgehog flopped down onto a near by bench. "This is fucking insane." He muttered, leaning forward, emerald eyes glaring at concrete pathway.

As azure hedgehog sat, muttering to himself, he failed to realize he was being watched. Not to far away, crimson eyes stared the blue hedgehog. The owner of those eyes stepped out from the darkness, and slowly made his way towards blue. He looked kind of similar to Sonic, save for his fur was ebony, with slashes of crimson on his arms and legs, and also on his quills, and his quills pointed up slightly, instead of down.

As the bony creature drew closer, a smirk came to his lips as he muttered "Hello, Faker." Instantly blue ears flickered. Sonic turned his head in the direction he had heard those words. Emerald orbs widened at the sight of his old rival. "Sh-Shadow?" He stuttered, earning a dark chuckle from the ebony hog. "Hah the one and only!" At that moment, Sonic felt his blood boil, he snarled at the ebony creature and quickly stood up, his fists clenched. "You fucking ass-wipe!" Blue growled, his eyes narrowing. Ebony was slightly taken aback by his rival. He merely folded his arm over his ivory furred chest, and replaced his smirk with a frown. "What have I done now, Faker?" Emerald suddenly became wide. 'How fucking dare he!' he thought. "You know damn well what you did, you fucktard!" Sonic growled "You left him! All alone! And for no reason!"

Shadow only glared at the blue nuisance, what happened between him and Silver was their own business. "I had my reasons, and I realize running away was cowardly and foolish. But there is no point in telling you, I need to tell Silver. Tell me, does he still live in my place?" Sonic couldn't help but smirk. He was considering whether or not to break ebony's heart. After a moment of silence death glaring, Sonic decided, to commit one evil act. "Well, not recently." Ebony tilted his head slightly, an eyebrow raised "Oh? And tell me, oh fake one, where is he currently residing?" Ohh Sonic was feeling the pleasure already "Well buddy, he's living with me now." The ebony one only rolled his eyes "Ugh, out of all the irritating people on this earth, he really had to choose a blue faker? Hmmmm well I guess he told you I'd be here for tomorrow then?" A smirk returned to tan lips. If Silver wished to stay with Sonic while Shadow was here, Shadow would make sure to do everything in his power, to piss Sonic off. Oh joy!

Sonic rubbed under his nose with his index finger, his evil smirk never leaving his lips. "I guess you could say that." Again the ebony hog rolled his eyes, and placed one hand on his hip, his foot tapping impatiently "Hmph, can I ask, what on earth was going through my beloveds head, when he decided to stay with YOU." He snorted. Sonic ran a hand through his quills and sighed deeply "Well Shadow, when one is in love and in a relationship with a certain blue sex god, he might feel the need to be closer to the blue sex god, seeing this, the blue sex god offers his home to his IVORY, adorable, FLUFFY, cute, HEDGEHOG, lover." Sonic grinned and tilted his head to the side.

Right now, if looks could kill, Sonic would be seven feet under. Shadow was clenched his fists "What exactly are you saying Faker?" He growled at the blue one, who's grin only widened, if that was possible. "I'm saying Shads, that Silver is MINE now. I love him, and he loves me, and YOU ARE THE REASON HE'S HURTING RIGHT NOW!" Sonic roared, standing in a fighting stance. He knew there would probably be a fight now, but if it was for the right to love his fluffy one, then he'd gladly get broken limbs and scars if it meant him being happy with his lover again.

Shadow's heart was cracking as each second passed. Silver and Sonic were a couple now? How can this be? He's been betrayed by his own ivory lover! Growling ebony pulled out his signature green chaos emerald, he gripped it tightly in his gloved hand "Well then Faker, I guess I shall see him a day early!" he roared before shouting the word "Chaos control!" and disappearing in a flash.

"Wha?" Sonic gasped, and blinked a couple of times before snarling. "He even thinks about touching a quill on Silver I will kill him." He growled before speeding off, back towards his home.
