The sun stood high, burning the concrete of the skatepark in Grand Garden. This was normally a well used park to meet other sporters, but this summer day had most skaters cooling off along the waters elsewhere in the green venue. But not the two maniacs who were sweating their balls off by going on just to proof to the other that some heatwave couldn't best him.

To counter the sun somewhat Shadow the hedgehog wore a long sleeved shirt over his black fur. It was buttoned up and in white linen, with holes stitched in the back to make room for the quills.

"Cool drip, Shads." Sonic joked earlier that afternoon when Shadow joined the blue hedgehog at the skatepark and he saw his attire.

"Can it, Sonic. You try wearing black during this damn heatwave!" But Sonic was right, the style didn't really fit with his skating shoes and it looked too formal to sport in, but Shadow hoped the burning sensation his black fur gained would be turned down a notch.

Within 15 minutes of skating Shadow already unbuttoned his shirt to let the air in. Clothing appeared quite restrictive in this weather… By the time Shadow and Sonic rounded up their skating session the hedgehogs were drenched, by both their sweat as well as the waterbottles they emptied on their fur to prevent a heatstroke. Still panting Sonic patted Shadow on the shoulder. The latter unscrewed a bottle containing the last of his water.

"I think we should reschedule tomorrows meetup to sundown." Sonic suggested. Suddenly distracted he glanced a moment past Shadow. While Shadow had barely opened his mouth to agree he was already interrupted by his friend, receiving a strangely devious wink. "Look at that, your wife is coming in to check on you. Laters, Shadow!" Without further warning the blue blur dashed off.

Curiously Shadow turned around, taking a sip from his water. On the path up to the skatepark she came walking, glowing angelicly in the full sun. Not only parts of her fur but also the dress Rouge wore was a soft white. At the front the garment was low cut and quite exposing, yet the skirt came well past her knees, rippling softly around her legs. For once the only pink the bat wore were her sunglasses, protecting her eyes by giant hearts. She waved theatrical. "Hello there, handsome."

Shadow almost chocked on his drink. While he coughed out the water Rouge calmly approached him.

"I thought you were resistant to my charms?" She said as seductive as she could.

"Ugh.." Shadow coughed a few more times before the irritation in his throat seemed to have passed. "It was just Sonic…" … implying a status Shadow and Rouge hadn't even on the horizon yet...

"If you say so, mister ultimate." Rouge pulled him in by his shirt. "Look at us in matching outfits."

Feeling flushed Shadow looked away. "It was just against the heat."

"How ironic, mine is for the heat. I made it easier by not wearing anything underneath." She bit her lip, acting as flirty as she could.

Shadow hooked a finger under the strap of her dress, leaning in so close the woman could feel his breath on her muzzle. "Right here, right now?" He saw Rouge's eyes widening behind the pink glasses, quickly checking her surroundings. Her tease was turned against her, making Rouge blush undeniably. Shadow pushed her away while laughing. "Are you actually considering doing that here?"

"No!" Rouge was embarrassed by how loud that word left her mouth. Then she turned away, cocking her head insulted. "I have my standards." But a little smile kept lingering on her face.

Shadow put his emptied waterbottle back into a bag he hang over his shoulder, holding his skateboard under his right arm. "A skatepark is below you?" He joked when he passed her, making Rouge grab his left arm to walk besides him.

"I just prefer somewhere less exposed." She said.

In silence they walked up the main path through the park. Shadow let his eyes wander across it. The green of nature had unfolded beautifully. He squinted his eyes to look up the rays that passed by the ceiling of leaves. He saw the rustling of birds. Felt the heat. Then he remembered a locked of part of the park he had noticed before. Earlier this year it had been used to house a small herd of long haired goats. Since a while they had been transferred to another park. They rotated through the region to give the grass time to grow again, but that also meant there was at least one locked of empty place out in the open available.

Glancing beside him Shadow looked at Rouge. She was still holding his arm, clearly enjoying the same views of the park around them. Or was she secretly scouting as well? Her silence implied so.

"Rouge?"

"Yes?" The word was pulled out long, as if she expected the thing she also had on her mind to follow.

"It really is a nice day." Shadow started cautious for he didn't know for sure what her earlier tease had implied. "I know somewhere more discrete."

"Oh really? How convenient." Rouge slightly pulled him in to whisper in his ear. "We've never done it outside in broad daylight before. Besides, I am well dressed for the occasion, so make use of this chance while it lasts, big guy." She enjoyed the awkward grin that formed on Shadow his face. With their fur masking most of the skin on their faces, this was the closest to a blush she could visibly get out of him.

"It is still quite a walk. The section with the animals is on the outer edge of the park."

"Then you have time enough to talk me up before we get there. Go on, try it. Make me hot."

Feeling the woman burning to his side, Shadow simply said; "You already feel quite hot."

Rouge couldn't keep herself from chuckling. "Forgive a girl for trying."

"… You look good in that dress."

"Well thank you, darling." Rouge sighed.

Reaching the secluded fenced of field was in multiple ways a walk in the park, for Shadow found the place he had seen with ease. The only path that passed the field was the one he and Rouge stood on here on the north side of the field. That path also bended away from the field.. Beyond the fencing grass had grown high. Scattered across the field were trees and bushes providing shadow. The few wooden walls and animal pens on the furthest end were empty. After that another fence barricaded a slim of forestation, thick enough that it seemed you couldn't see passed that.

Rouge put her hands on her hips, inspecting the area. Even though the park was crowded today, most people gathered around the ponds and streams, or camped with drinks on the open patches of grass. Here it was a lot less lively. Up until now the conditions seemed perfect. Beside her Shadow walked towards the fence, looking up and to the sides. It seemed well closed down. He spotted no holes where unexpected visitors could crawl through.

The flapping of wings behind him made Shadow turn around. Rouge was already departed from the ground, the hem of her dress tucked between her legs: no peeking. "Give me your hand." She commanded, on which Shadow stuck his out and Rouge grabbed him. With ease she pulled both of them over the surroundings, across the field and to the furthest pens where she sought cover.

Once landed Rouge inspected the possible sanctuary and approved of the privacy the location provided. She contently closed her eyes, stretching her wings out to catch the sun. The smell of the warm grass was wonderful. From the trees beyond the fence there came a cooler scent of wet ground hidden amidst their roots. Without any grazers the grass had grown high enough to tickle their calves.

"Good spotting, big guy."

"I watch my surroundings." He said while laying his skateboard on the grass, using it as a plateau for his bag.

Rouge opened her eyes and watched him standing there, bathing in the light, still scanning around him. He looked tempting by the way he just existed right now. His ruffled look from working out in the park gave him an edge that was arousing. And Rouge could smell his willingness from over where she stood, them both oozing the thick odour of lust. "Just watching, or planning?" In a swift move she pulled of the sunglasses from her face and tossed them aside, knowing they would land softly.

Shadow's eyes rested on her, flaming red from the daylight bundling up inside of them. "Both." He said, in awe by her wings stretched out to their fullest. It made her look grand, even royal, contrasting to the softness of her curvy shapes. The grass rustled around his legs when he stepped in, able to touch his girl now they were hidden from prying eyes. But even before Shadow's hands touched her face, Rouge took his between her hands and planted a kiss. In her excitement she refolded her wings, enjoying the salt taste that had formed around Shadow his lips.

With his hands free Shadow slipped them past Rouge back to her behind. He felt her soft butt through the fabric and moved his hands around, squeezing and massaging. Rouge let her fingers travel down his front, gaining access to his sensitive area. After just a few strokes and pulls Rouge noticed how he squeezed her harder, left the bat her lips to quiveringly gasp in air.

"This day made us both extremely thirsty." Rouge breathed warmly in his ear, followed with a lick and nibbles.

"Don't… stop…" He growled in his pleasure, feeling his insides building up to a climax.

But then Rouge did stop. She pulled Shadow in by his hips and placed herself around his upper leg. She softly started rubbing herself against him, the fabric still in between.

"You are a tease." Shadow laughed painfully, full of pent up energy. But he enjoyed the feeling of Rouge riding against him. It also gave him time to carefully explore her behind more clearly. He took up the back of her dress, allowing him to feel her up barehanded, stroking his fingers by her tail. In return Rouge started moaning, moving herself up and down his leg even faster.

"A tease… who wants you… to give your all… inside of her…" The bat huffed while holding herself up to Shadow, feeling weak in the knees with a strong heartbeat between her legs.

"Let me give you that right now." But while he embraced the woman tightly to bring her down to the ground Rouge resisted.

"No wait, my dress. It will get stained from the grass." She said while wiping the sweat from the fur of her forehead.

Shadow had stopped in his movements, a bit unsure what to do. Thinking of his own white shirt, laying on his back was neither a good option. He could take it off, but Rouge was quicker in her approach, pushing herself out of his arms.

"We could just as easily stay on both feet." She said. With her hands Rouge quickly tugged up her dress to her waist and turned around. The wall of the pen was of withered wood, but it would give a good hold for her. She bent over, broadening her stand, exposing herself to the only one who was allowed to see her like this.

For a brief moment Shadow admired the view of Rouge standing there waiting in full glory. The sun shimmered on every moist fold she had. Then he stepped in, stroking his fingers from front to back, getting a shiver out of the bat. Firmly he spread her up more and entered with desire, grabbing her hips tightly, pushing in and out with rhythm.

Being already hot made that it didn't take long before Rouge was enjoying it as well, hissing her excitement to keep her from crying out. She tried her hardest to stay quiet: being caught like this in the open would be too embarrassing. They might have been hidden from eyes, but not ears. And while this woman might act flirtatious with ease, she still had her pride. As if Shadow knew, he as well made growling huffs that were a lot more quiet then normal.

Rouge felt his fingers gripping her hips strongly, his pumps making her back arch, taking each push deeply. She held her balance by resting her arms from their elbows up against the outer wall of the pen. But the more she felt the tension building, the deeper her nails cut into the old wood. Her legs began to tremble, the ecstasy growing. Before long the woman entering a rush that lingered on and on. "Keep.. going…" She gasped, wanting it to never end, breathing deeply in and out to let her body suck the pleasure in more.

With each move Shadow went a bit wilder. A bit harder. He felt Rouge ever so deeply, taking her into his very soul. The world around him seized to exist during his build up, becoming a blur in which only the repetitive motion and expanding sensation existed.

The burst arrived like fireworks. In an instant his world a white heaven, that wonderful moment after which he almost collapsed, bending over and embracing Rouge her waist to recover. Rouge had felt the explosion inside her and new it was over. That was for the better, because she didn't know how much longer she could keep herself up by her mere fingernails.

Together they just stood there, huffing and sweating while the euphoria wore off. Then Shadow pulled out and sank down in the grass, enjoying the aftermath. Watching Rouge, still exposed, made Shadow realise he had a small towel in his bag to wipe himself dry after skating. It was as if this escapade was planned after all..! Without standing up Shadow reached for his bag and cleaned himself. Then he looked up to Rouge, who had just straightened herself up. With a sigh he stood up and reached under the dress which had fallen back into place. Rouge softly leaned onto him while Shadow delicately cleaned her still sensitive below.

"It really is a beautiful dress." Shadow whispered. Rouge smiled, for she knew the hedgehog was bad with compliments, but the ones he did make meant more then its literal words.

"I know." She replied softly. "I know."
