No, that's impossible. That can't be him.
Shadow thought this to himself upon hearing the sound, recognizing the voice that produced it, yet not quite believing it.
He's not the type to cry over something. But...I should still make sure it's really him.
The black hedgehog treaded lightly towards the source of the crying. Before long, he was lead past a line of trees to a pond, and sure enough, on his knees sat his blue rival, crying, sharply intaking a breath every few seconds.
Despite now seeing it for himself, Shadow found the sight very hard to believe.
My God, I never thought I would see this, he thought. Still, if he's crying, there must be something terribly wrong.
He hesitated, debating if he should go see if Sonic was alright. Am I foolish for doing this?
But then he shook off his doubts and walked quietly towards Sonic. As he came closer, he could see the tears trailing down the blue one's cheeks. Shadow could almost feel the sadness and pain in his rival's voice as he cried, like an ache in his heart.
When he was close enough, Shadow knelt down beside Sonic and gently said his name. Sonic's ears twitched, picking up the voice, and he momentarily paused crying when he saw who it was.
"Sh-Shadow." he said with surprise. "W-What are you doing here?"
"I heard you crying and wanted to see if you were alright." Shadow lay a comforting hand on Sonic's arm. "What's wrong?"
Sonic was hesitant to share his burden with Shadow, not sure if he could trust him with it. But he knew that keeping it to himself forever wouldn't make him feel better, so he decided to come out and say it.
"I've realized something, Shadow. It's something I really, really want, but..." He sighed. "It'll never happen."
"What is it, Sonic?" Shadow didn't want to admit he was genuinely concerned now, but he was.
"W-Well, y-you see, Shadow, I-" Sonic's voice shook. "I realized that I...I-" Fresh tears started to fall. "I...I love you, Shadow! I'm in love with you!"
Sonic buried his face in his hands as his sobs returned. "That's why I'm crying! I love you, but you could never love me back! Because you're my rival!"
Sonic cried for a few long seconds, awaiting Shadow's responce. He was taken by surprise when he felt the dark one's hands take ahold of his own, and when he pulled them away, the blue one saw that he was smiling.
"In all honesty, Sonic, I've secretly felt the same way for you. I didn't say anything because I also felt like you wouldn't accept my feelings, because of our rivalry. But..." Shadow caressed Sonic's face in his hands, wiping his tears away. "I don't think there's any need for that anymore. I love you, too, Sonic."
Sonic was stunned silent, daring to believe that what Shadow just said was true. But finally, his tears of pain became tears of joy.
"Shadow, I..." Sonic didn't know what to say, but there was no need for words. He wrapped his arms around Shadow, and the new lovers were engaged in a passionate kiss.
Shadow gently caressed Sonic as they kissed, making him let out a few cute-sounding moans. He always took Sonic as being the kind who would be strong for others, but when it came to now-his love for the dark hedgehog-he was letting someone else be strong for him. As for Sonic, he was glad to let go of his earlier sadness and pain, to trade it for happiness and love for Shadow. He had been so afraid that Shadow wouldn't accept his feelings, but now he couldn't remember why.
Shadow broke away from the kiss. "Come, Sonic. Let's go back to my place." He stood up and offered his boyfriend a hand. "There's something I want to try with you."
Sonic took Shadow's hand and let him guide him to his house, which was just a few blocks from the pond at which he had been crying. Together, they walked up the walkway to the front door, into the house, and up the stairs to Shadow's bedroom. Night was falling, and the final rays of light shone weakly through the double doors leading to the balcony.
"Lay down, Sonic." Shadow said, gesturing to his bed. Sonic did, and Shadow soon followed, laying on top of him, gazing lovingly down at his blue boyfriend. They began to kiss again, with even more passion than before.
Shadow's kisses soon moved below Sonic's lips, to his neck, his chest, his stomach. Sonic liked how it felt, and he completely gave in to the feeling, letting Shadow do whatever he wanted to him.
But then he felt Shadow spread his legs apart, and he let out a startled gasp that made Shadow instantly recoil.
"What's the matter, Sonic? Am I going too far?"
"N-No, Shadow. You just...took me by surprise there. Keep going."
So Shadow leaned back down and gently started to rim Sonic. This sensation was entirely new to Sonic, but it felt wonderful. He moaned with bliss as Shadow's rimming increased in speed and intensity, and before long his member emerged from his blue fur and quickly hardened.
Shadow sucked on the new invitation presented to him, making both Sonic and himself moan with pleasure. The hot, enticing taste of his boyfriend's member combined with both of their moaning spiked his own arousal, and one of his hands went to stroking his own hardened shaft.
"Hah.....hah.....Sh-Shadow..." Sonic could barely speak over all the pleasure he felt. His moans grew louder as he drew closer to his climax. When he reached his peak, he called out Shadow's name twice more before releasing his seed into his boyfriend's mouth.
The dark hedgehog moaned with relish as the blue one's hot, white fluid flooded his mouth. He pulled back gently and swallowed, savoring the taste.
"How was it, Sonic?" he asked.
"Shadow...that was amazing." Sonic replied.
"Well, that was just a warm-up. Now it's time for the real thing." Shadow positioned himself to push his member into Sonic's hole. "Are you ready, Sonic?"
"Yeah, Shadow. Go on in."
"Don't worry, I'll be gentle."
By this time, Shadow's member had already started leaking precum, which he hoped would make the penetration somewhat easier. He aligned the tip with Sonic's entrance, then carefully started to push into the tight hole.
Despite the fact that Shadow was being as gentle as he could, Sonic couldn't help but wince in pain. It was his first time, so he wasn't used to the penetrating sensation yet. He gripped Shadow's right hand in his left for support until he was fully inside. The dark one allowed his lover a moment to let the pain fade.
"Are you alright now, Sonic? Can I start moving?"
"Yeah. I'm ready, Shadow."
Shadow's thrusts began slow and careful, to let Sonic become used to the feeling. At first, it felt very uncomfortable for Sonic, and he winced at every thrust. But then the pain started to deminish, slowly fading to a feeling of enjoyment.
Then Shadow hit a certain spot in Sonic, and the blue hedgehog moaned in complete pleasure, all signs of discomfort gone. Shadow kept pounding that spot, making Sonic moan again and again. Sonic pulled his boyfriend down and kissed him passionately, their tounges intwining almost desperately.
"Ah, Shadow...faster, please..." Sonic begged.
Shadow increased the speed of his thrusts. Their moans were almost beyond their control now, as Shadow hit Sonic's pleasure spot over and over again. Precum leaked from both of their members, their climaxes rapidly approaching.
"Ah...ah...Sh-Shads...Shads-!" Sonic struggled to speak over the intense levels of pleasure, holding tightly onto Shadow. "I'm...I'm gonna-!"
All of a sudden, Sonic's seed shot out and soaked the both of them, staining their fur white. At the same time, Sonic felt Shadow's seed pouring inside of him, leaving him with a feeling of fullness and contentment.
Shadow pulled out of Sonic, a stream of white fluid leaking out of his hole, and laid down next to him, both of them panting. Neither of them had energy to speak, so they wordlessly cuddled together, watching the now fully dark sky through the balcony doors.
When Shadow regained his strength, he grabbed a towel and wiped Sonic and himself clean, then laid back down next to his blue lover. Sonic was starting to fall alseep, the exhaustion from their sex and the comfort and warmth from their snuggle making him drousy.
"Shadow, I love you." he said wearily.
Sonic felt Shadow's lips on his cheek and his reply of, "I love you, too, Sonic." before he contently drifted off.
The resting couple would soon be in for a surprise. The seed that the black hedgehog released had fertilized an egg inside of the blue one.
Without really meaning to, Shadow had impregnated Sonic.
