Royal slave: chapter 4
Shadow's POV
I sighed in relief and watched cream sleep. I was able to comfort her a little bit. And she had fallen asleep not to soon after. She was still laying against my chest and i didn't want to move her back onto the matress because i didn't want to wake her up and maybe upset her even more. So i just allowed her to lay against my chest. I Laid down softly and carefully. I closed my eyes and yawned. I decided to move anyway and laid down on my side, but i made sure that cream was laying on the matress. I sighed and closed my eyes. And soon i had fallen asleep again.
Sonic's POV
I woke up the next morning with a headache. I sighed and blocked the sun off with my pillow. I must be having this headache because of all that thinking yesterday. I heard a hard knock on my door, probably from a maid who wanted to bring breakfast, and groaned. "come in." I groaned. "good morning, master. did you sleep well? i have your breakfast here." The maid said and walked in with a plate. I sighed again and threw the pillow of off my face and onto the ground. She put the plate on the nightstand and smiled. "thank you." I groaned and sat up. "is something wrong, master?" She asked upon hearing my groaning. "in fact yes, i have a headache that's killing me." I groaned and recieved as an answer her giggling. "is something funny?" I asked. "i'm sorry, master. maybe breakfast can help against it." The maid said and giggled. I chuckled. "i hope your right." I said once my chuckles ceased. "but, now i need to go, master. i have something important to do." She said and opened the door. "like what?" I asked. "like baking a cake of course." She said cheerfully. "for who?" I asked. "why for, sha-...oh that's right." She said and looked down. "i guess i don't have anything important to do now." She said sadly and left my room.
A cake. For shadow? That's right. It was his birthday today. He has turning 20 today. The maid wanted to bake a cake for him. She was, like other servants, maids and slave, not used to having shadow not around anymore. Every time a servant, a slave or maid had his or her birthday, they would celebrate it in secrecy. I knew that because i used to attend shadow's birthdays without them noticing. Their birthdays were never celebrate by their owners. So they had decided to celebrate their own birthdays without their owners knowing. The person in question was always really happy when his or her birthday arrived. Celebrating eachothers birthday was their way of showing that they cared for eachother.
But, however, it was diffirent. They were so used celebrating shadow's birthday and now, all of a sudden, they couldn't do it with shadow anymore because my parents were to stupid to ask for a reason behind shadow's snapping and instead got rid of him. I sighed and rubbed against my temple. I decided to quickly eat breakfast and get rid of this headache beforre doing something else.
