ShinyShiny9: Thank you! :D Yes, I don't like rushed fanfics and when Shadow or Rouge are OOC. I am trying to keep their characters like they really are.

werewolf lover99: Heh.

Sorry guys if this chapter was stupid I am just tired.

The ebony hedgehog, Shadow, yawned as he woke up. He lazily rubbed his eyes and stretched. But there was something unusual... Shadow noticed, that shades were still closed, that's why the room was dark. And he didn't see Rouge waking him up. Usually, Rouge comes to his room and 'bothers' him to wake up. Or at least opens shades. But today, the hedgehog didn't see neither of these things.

"Something is not right..." Shadow thought, as he sat up.

Then, his ears twitched, as he heard someone's laugh from downstairs.

Without hesitation, Shadow put his gloves and boots on. He quickly ran downstairs.

Once the ebony hedgehog was downstairs, he slowly peeked into the living room. There, he saw Knuckles, Amy, Sonic, Tails and Rouge. They all were laughing at something.

"Alright, alright guys~ Enough." The ivory bat said, as she sat down on the couch, her cheeks in a little shade of red.

After they all were quiet again, Shadow decided to appear. He slowly walked to the room and leaned on the wall, his arms crossed.

"Oh, hey Shadz!" The blue hedgehog waved.

"Hello Shadow." Said Amy and Tails at once.

"Good morning, Shadow~" The treasure huntress winked at him.

Knuckles just looked in Shadow's direction and scoffed.

"What is this all about?" The hedgehog asked, ignoring all the greetings.

"Nothing much~ Just a little chit-chatting." The bat was first to reply.

"Jokes aside." Shadow looked at Sonic.

"Hey, calm down, will you? We just want to do something fun. So, we headed to you and Rouge: just to hang out with you guys." The blued blur raised a thumb up.

Others just nodded.

"And what is he doing there?" Shadow pointed at the guardian of the Master Emerald, who was sitting next to Rouge.

"Well, he's the part of the group." Amy replied to his question. "Why, is there something wrong?" She then cocked an eyebrow.

Shadow was about to speak, when Rouge interrupted him.

"So, now that Shadow is up, what are we going to do?~"

"I don't know. How about a walk in the park? And then we can all go to cafe." The sakura hedgehog suggested.

"Not a bad idea, Amy." The yellow kitsune smiled, which caused Amy to smile as well.

"Really? I hope Sonic likes the idea, do you, Sonikku?" Amy squeeled, hugging her hero to death.

"Well...I have no other choice..." Sonic coughed.

"Yay!" Amy hugged him tighter.

"Alright, why don't you two love birds get a room?~" Rouge smirked.

Amy and Sonic blushed at the comment. Sonic then pulled away from the pink hedgehog.

"Alright, then we are going! Let's go!" Sonic was already at the door.

"Yeah, you guys go, me and Shadow will follow you~" Rouge said.

With a nod, Sonic, Tails and Amy ran outside.

Knuckles, gave Rouge a confused look, then he glared at Shadow.

Shadow returned his glare, twice more threatening.

Knuckles walked outside, slamming the door.

"What is this all about?" Shadow asked at last, demanding an answer.

"I thought you might be tired of my company, so I called other~" Rouge looked at him.

"Why does she thinks so?" Shadow thought. "Her company is pretty enjo- Ugh, stop it Shadow." He then quickly regained his seriousness.

Rouge noticed the sudden change in him.

"Shadow?" She asked, concerned.

"Let's go." The hedgehog replied, walking away, leaving the bat more confused.

Soon, Rouge closed the Club and flew after others.
