Shadow's Point Of View

After Mephiles and I got Tails and Rouge to my house, Mephiles started healing them, while I took a bath. This time for once, I was able to take a long, warm bath without feeling watched. I threw off my sweatshirt and underwear into a trash can I kept in the corner. I didn't want to keep them as they seemed far too repulsive to stay in after having been touched by Sonic in them. I stepped into the water, I had already prepared and slouched in it, letting it wash off the dirty feeling I had from being with Sonic. I rubbed some soap from a bottle in my fur, making sure not to miss a single spot. Once I was completely clean, I simply laid in the water, until I zoned out entirely.

I was on the Ark, in the lab room with Robotnik and Maria. I had asked if my genetics had anything to do with me being a herm at all. Maria was dead set on the fact that I'd turn into a girl completely and I was hoping that she was wrong on her theory. We had finally asked Robotnik if he could tell us. He agreed and now we were waiting for him to finish.

We laid on a bench for hours and hours until finally he came out of the lab room. We stood up waiting for his answer.

"Well Maria you were almost right. As it turns out he will have every part of a female as he gets older except the eyelashes, his nose, boobs, and his voice. But of course he would still keep his male organ." He stated.

"So wait, he won't have boobs?!" Maria asked, her eyes wide with surprisment. The doctor nervously nodded a yes and she suddenly started moping.

"Oh man! Now we can't go bra shopping together!" she said giving me a headache, even if I wasn't a complete girl, I still hated what I just heard.

"Well, he will still have nipples under his tufft of fur if that counts..." Robotic sweatdropped as he talked.

"But it's not the same!" She said sounding even more saddened than before. She suddenly stopped when she saw me leaning over into the wall.

"Shadow...?"

"I think...I'm going to be sick..." Then I ran off to find a bathroom.

"Huh? But I thought he'd be happy..." Maria said sadly.

"I don't think it'll ever be easy for him having to worry about his future in such a state."

"Really? I think being a hermaphrodite is awesome! Being able to create a life is a wonderful thing!"

I finally realized that the water was freezing already and quickly got out of the water, before I got sick. I got my towel and wrapped myself in it, letting it warm me from the now cold water. I walked into my room and since it was empty, I changed into another sweatshirt. This one seemed the comfiest, compared to the rest and I was glad to be able to relax. Eventually, I left my room and headed for the guest bedroom seeing Rouge and Tails resting on the bed, but Mephiles wasn't anywhere in sight. I panicked again. What if he had left again?! I rushed off downstairs and relaxed, when I found Mephiles on the couch. He was resting with his arms behind his head. His eyes opened as I got closer to him and he smiled.

"Morning, love."

Mephiles' Point Of View

"Good morning." Shadow greets back.

"Tails and Rouge are healed; they just need to rest for a while." He nods and he takes a seat next to me.

"Umm, Mephiles?" He asks.

"Yes?"

"How did you know I was a herm?" I smirked.

"Characteristics in behaviors, your tail and other body parts have the same instincts of a female." He looks shocked.

"Oh." He blinks, probably not realizing that detail on his own.

"And if I were to actually have kids...would you hate me?" Now it was my turn to be shocked, how could he possibly think that I'd ever hate him? I turn fully towards him.

"I'd never do that. In fact, I'd love you even more and help take care of them just like a father should." He smiles at me and he surprises me with a kiss to my lips. I put my arms around his waist and pull him closer, so he's once again, sitting on my lap. He suddenly breaks it.

"Shouldn't you be asleep?" Shadow worried. I smirked; of course he'd worry about me.

"I guess I could use some rest...but only if you sleep with me." I wink at him at the last part and his muzzle becomes scarlet.

"F-fine." He says as we get up and I follow him up the stairs to his room. As soon as we both are inside I lock the door and pull him into my arms. If his muzzle could get any redder, it was.

"Mephiles! What are you-?!" I kiss him before he finishes and he wraps his arms around my neck. I lightly traced my tongue on his lips asking for entrance and his mouth opened enough for me. I slid my tongue in and he moaned, as our we battled fiercely over our dominance. Eventually, I won and explored his mouth, touching every sweet spot I knew of. He shivered and moaned in my grip on him and eventually we had to break apart for air.

"We...really should...go to bed now." He said in between breaths. I nodded and not wanting to let go of him, picked him up bridal style in my arms, making him gasp. I chuckled and carried him to the bed. I laid him in the covers and then I joined him myself. I wrapped my arms around him and we snuggled into each other. Immediately, he yawns from the softness of the bed. He was probably feeling the effects of not sleeping for almost two nights in a row. It was most likely that we'd sleep the whole day. As we lay there together I started petting Shadow's head, making his eyes heavy with sleep. Before I knew it, I heard soft breathes coming from him and the occasional purr, as I keep brushing my hand through his quills.

"Shadow?" I ask. There wasn't an answer, confirming that he was asleep.

"I love you." He murmurs in his sleep and I smile.

"I love you too Shadow..." I whisper into his ear. I watched him sleep for a few, then I realized something that blue hedgehog had said before we left the base

"You think you've defeated me! Well guess again!" Then the green orbs in his eyes disappeared, leaving only the whites of his eyes, as he continued.

"There will be more who will try to get that hedgehog! And eventually he will have him!" He said, looking straight at me. Then Sonic held the remote he had above his head.

Just what did he mean by he? Who was it? What ever it was, it would have to wait till tomorrow.

*One Year And A Half Later*

I feel like the luckiest demon in the universe. Shadow and I are still together and I could never be happier. Rouge and Tails had become great friends to the both of us and we had created plenty of fun memories with each other. Rouge had even introduced me to some of their other friends like Knuckles, Cream, and Cheese and Tails had even started looking for the chaos emeralds again with my help.

At the moment. Me and Shadow were in bed, he had fallen asleep already, but I was still stuck on what Sonic had said when the base blew up.

'Eventually he will have him' He had said. it still bothered me. But only time would tell. With that thought, I drifted into a deep sleep, only to have that same nightmare I had so long ago, again.

Hey Guys! Thats the end of chapter 1! I'll get the second started as soon as possible! C:
