Work Text:
The first thing that crossed Shadow's mind the minute he entered Sonic's small home in the middle of the woods, was a simple: ‘Damn.’
All the hybrid could do was stare wide-eyed into the living space, frozen in place as his crimson eyes scanned over every stack of books piled into the cluttered area.
He had never seen so many in his entire life, let alone stacked into one small space.
Stacks upon stacks littered the room, across bookshelves, tables, the couch. Hell, even the floor had piles stacked so chaotically high, Shadow wondered if they had any sorting system at all.
It was like the world's most chaotic, cluttered, insane library of babel.
Shadow registered Sonic's nervous chuckle beside him, causing him to finally snap out of his stupor to face the hero.
“I mean..” Sonic chuckled again, rubbing the back of his neck in a nervous stim. “I did warn you the place was kind of a mess.”
Kind of a mess was putting it lightly.. Shadow wondered if they should have come here in the first place. Perhaps it would have just been better to remain in the flower field they fell into, fucking in the grass and soil like a pair of feral animals.
But no.. Shadow just had to insist they do it in private, like a mature grown hedgehog. And now he was here. In Sonic's crazy ass hoarders den.
Shadow wished to himself (not for the first time) that he owned his own home, and didn't have to share with his teammate. That way he could just hook up with someone whenever he pleased, not having to worry about the possibility of choking on book dust in order to get laid.
Sonic closed the door behind them, effectively closing off Shadow's last chance of escape.
The blue hedgehog then cleared his throat, rocking on the balls of his feet with hands held behind his back. “Sooooo” he drawled, clearly a little jittery having Shadow in his home for the first time. “You want some water or somethin’?” His emeralds still refused to make contact with bright judgemental rubies.
“Sure.” Shadow answered simply, attention still preoccupied elsewhere.
Sonic made a popping noise with his mouth, “Okay cool, won't be a minute.” And took off in the direction Shadow assumed led to his kitchen.
Shadow balled his hands into fists, wondering again to himself what lust-filled demon convinced him this was a good idea in the first place. Was he truly this desperate to lose his virginity to this moron?
….Perhaps.
The hybrid turned to scrutinise Sonic's front door one more time, weighing up just how rude it may be to dip out now that the blood flow had returned to his head and wasn't preoccupied in other places. Giving himself what he needed in order to think clearer about what exactly it was he was doing.
Fuck it.
Shadow turned away from the door, shaking his head as he walked further into the living space towards the closest overflown bookshelf.
He barely got to read over one title, before bright cobalt appeared in his peripheral. Shadow startled as Sonic smiled brightly at him, peach muzzle slightly damp from where it looked like he had splashed it with water.
“Here ya go!” And a glass of cold water was shoved into the hybrids awaiting gloved hand.
Shadow watched Sonic with a put-on bored expression, slowly bringing the glass up to honey tan lips.
He paused it just millimetres from his mouth to speak softly. "A lot of books you've got here.” Before taking a tentative sip of water, an attempt to clear his throat and mind.
Sonic blinked back to reality, seeming to have spaced out slightly whilst watching his rival.
“Oh! Yeah, uhh..” Sonic turned to his bookshelf to look it over, before returning his attention to Shadow's face. “I like to read.”
“Evedently.” Shadow remarked, his lips curling into a smirk over the rim of his glass.
Sonic seemed to relax after Shadow's light-hearted jab, the tension breaking slightly as they fell into their usual rhythm of friendly banter.
“Hey, look.” Sonic started, huffing a laugh of feigned exasperation. “I did mention that I only really use this place for storage, and I meant it. We could always just go back to your place if it's such an issue?” He smirked.
Shadow grumbled into his glass as he swallowed, before finally lowering it from his mouth to speak.
“We can't, idiot. Rouge is home.”
“So?”
“So.” Shadow sighed. “I don't want her overhearing anything, and knowing you. You're probably loud as hell, I'd rather not hear about it from Rouge later.”
Sonic snorted, seemingly amused by their minor debacle.
“Okay big guy, whatever you say.”
The blue hedgehog still seemed anxious, unsure how to get the ball back into sexy territory, instead of whatever other weird court they were in now. He tapped his hands repetitively on his own thighs, looking off to the side and then up before he looked at Shadow once again.
“What do you like to read?”
Smooth.
Shadow mulled it over a moment, clearing his throat with a quiet closed-mouthed cough.
“History books and non fiction mostly.” He stated, unsure why Sonic had asked that question of all things.
“Mostly?” Sonic tilted his head as he raised an eyebrow at his counterpart, leaning in to metaphorically squeeze more information out of him.
Shadow's face flushed, grip on his glass of water tightening.
“I..” he started, pausing to avoid Sonic's questioning green eyes before answering. “I like romance and fairytales too.” He said simply, attempting to be nonchalant about it.
He also liked smut on occasion, reluctantly, after Rouge had pestered him to read one of hers she was adamant about being good. Shadow found himself reaching for the genre more and more often afterwards.
But he wouldn't be giving up THAT information to Sonic of all people. He would never let him live it down.
Sonic huffed a “huh” at Shadow, seemingly very fascinated by his other two favored genres. “Didn't expect either of those to be honest.”
Shadow grumbled, before speaking up to move the spotlight off himself. “How about you then, Faker. What sort of books do you favor, hm?”
Sonic chuckled, before thinking it over a moment.
“Hmmm, honestly?” He laughed. “I don't think I have one, I read a bit of everything.” Sonic put on a mocking english accent for his next sentence. “An eclectic reader if you will!”
“Pheh.” Shadow laughed, a short huff of a thing. “That makes sense for you, given the absolute chaos that is your collection.”
“Hey man!” Sonic grumbled. “It may be chaotic, but I totally know where everything is. Got my own system!”
“I'm sure you do.” Shadow smiled, the expression teasing in nature and seemingly amused by Sonic.
“I do!” Sonic's voice raised up a pitch, “and I'll totally prove it, watch.”
He pointed in the direction of the pile stacked on a wooden coffee table, sat in between an old couch and television set.
“Those are all gardening books I brought out to prepare for springtime.”
Another pile stacked beside the couch.
“Those ones are all children's books I've pulled out from when Tail's was younger, so I can go donate them to the local daycare.”
Another pile next to the shelves in front of them.
“Those are all fantasy and sci-fi novels.”
He sucked in a deep breath, about to gesture towards the bookshelf Shadow had started scrutinising earlier.
“And this one-”
Shadow cut him off before Sonic got the chance to continue, hand not occupied by a glass coming up to silence him with a gentle ‘stop’ gesture.
“Okay, okay.” The hybrid huffed a lightly annoyed laugh. “You've made your point, hedgehog.”
Sonic puffed up his chest at the admission, “Damn right I have!” He smirked.
Shadow felt his shoulders jostle as he laughed deep in his throat and chest, amused by Sonic's act of bravado over his own knowledge of book placement.
It reminded him why he reluctantly liked this idiot in the first place.
“Have you actually read all of these?” The hybrid asked, tone more light hearted than usual, as he gestured a hand in the direction of Sonic's shelf.
Sonic perked up at the query, “Oh yeah, sure have!” He smiled, “Ah wait. Not ALL, all of them, the ones I haven't are stacked on my bedside table.” The blue hedgehog gestured a thumb over his shoulder in the direction of his bedroom.
“Hmm.” Shadow mused, “Up until now, I would have assumed you didn't even know how to read.” He jested.
Sonic baulked at him, “Ah! I rebuke that! I'll have you know I've actually gotten sucked into a few books!” he pouted.
“Sucked in?” Shadow raised an eyebrow as he chuckled slightly, amused.
“Yeah!” Sonic confirmed. “I have!”
“Sure.” Shadow wasn't sure he believed that claim.
Sonic threw his head back to groan from his throat, frustrated. “Dude I'm serious! It was, like. Some weird alternate dimension thingie.”
“Mhhmm.” Shadow mumbled.
“You were a knight and everything! It would have been cool if not for all the crazy world ending shit.” He laughed.
“Okay.” Shadow said flatly as he smirked, eyes lidding as he observed Sonic's growing agitation through his long eyelashes.
“Come on!” Sonic groaned again, throwing his hands up in exasperation. “Why doesn't anyone ever believe me when I tell them about that. It's true!”
“Oh I believe you.” Shadow lied, tone clearly indicating that he was, and further pissing off the blue hedgehog in front of him.
Sonic growled at him, “You're an asshole man, you know that?”
“I've been told once or twice.”
Sonic huffed at Shadow's attempt at humor “Was that a joke? Didn't know you knew how to make those.” He jabbed.
“And I didn't know you knew how to read, so now we are even.”
Sonic rolled his eyes, crossing his arms as he laughed in amusement. Taking the insult on the chin as best he could. “Right, okay. Whatever you say, you dick.”
Shadow chuckled low, Sonic's quip unfortunately reminding him of why they were here in the first place.
He took a confident step towards the hero, shoving the now mostly empty glass into his gloved hands as he lent in close. Breath ghosting over Sonic's lips in the tease of a kiss that wasn't happening just yet.
“I believe we came here to do more than talk about your book obsession, Sonic.” He purred, lips curled into a flirtatious, sultry smirk that could put Rouge's to shame.
Sonic's eyes blew wide, and the emerald color of his irises shrunk as his pupils dilated. He gulped before attempting to take a breath of air in, a difficult feat when it was shared with the dark hedgehog before him.
The hero gripped tightly at the glass thrust towards him, eyes dropping to look down at Shadow's tan lips. Before coming back up to determined crimson irises drowned out by the black of Shadow's own dilated pupils.
Sonic wet his lips with a swipe of his own tongue before speaking in a rather pathetic tone. “Oh uhh, yeah. Heh heh, sure are.” He agreed, squeezing his eyes shut for a moment to internally reprimand himself for his lack of cool.
Get it together Sonic!
Shadow huffed a laugh, before turning to shoulder past the hero in the direction he assumed his room would be in.
“Well don't keep me waiting, hedgehog.” He called over his shoulder, expecting Sonic to follow and guide him.
Sonic shook his head after a moment, snapping himself out of it. Then in a streak of blue, deposited the glass in his kitchen sink, and rushed ahead of Shadow to hold the bedroom door open for him.
“Ma-sir” he joked, bowing as he gestured for Shadow to step inside the room ahead of him.
Shadow huffed a laugh, running his hand over Sonic's forehead and face, pushing it down playfully with the firm swipe.
“Idiot.” He smirked, the small smile leaving his face the moment he stepped foot in the new space presented to him.
‘Oh my fucking god.’ He thought, and with nothing more intellectual to say, repeated the thought out loud.
“Oh it's not that bad!” Sonic laughed, before stepping in after him and shutting the door with a dull ‘click.’ “You should have seen it before I cleared up some of my older books.”
There. Were. Books. Everywhere.
On all the shelves, floor, tables, desk. You name it, there were books on it.
“This is a little excessive.” Shadow mumbled, more to himself than to answer Sonic.
“You're a little excessive.” Sonic mocked back. “Now we doin’ this or what?”
Shadow quirked a brow at the increasingly impatient blue hedgehog, nodding in agreement anyway. “I suppose so.”
Sonic chuckled at his weak response, before walking further into his room to remove his red and white sneakers.
“Just dump your shoes wherever man." He said, while kicking his own pair under the bed in front of him.
The ultimate lifeform supposed wherever would be fine anyway, considering how messy and cluttered the room already was.
With a “hmm” of acknowledgement, Shadow removed his airshoes, carefully placing them out of the way beside Sonic's bedroom door.
When Shadow finally looked up again, Sonic was walking towards him. Face split into a suggestive smirk as he approached the hybrid.
“So.” Sonic grabbed Shadow's slim waist to pull the two of them flush together. “How we doin’ this?” And pressed a quick peck to tan lips.
Shadow was unsure what Sonic meant by that, so voiced it to him. “What do you mean?”
Sonic giggled at his question, “Ya know, who's topping who's bottoming. Any likes, dislikes, that kinda stuff.”
“Topping and bottoming?” Shadow parroted in question.
“Yeah man! Have you not done this before?” Sonic quirked an eyebrow in question.
Shadow looked off to the side to avoid looking at Sonic, his cheeks and ears heating in what he hoped wasn't a visible blush.
“Oh chaos, no way!” Sonic laughed in shock and awe, causing Shadow to scowl in response. Ears folding back against his head in quiet shame. “You really haven't? Awhh Shadow.” He kissed the hybrid's nose, his own weird way of trying to sooth him. “That's totally okay, we can take it slow.” His fingers danced up Shadow's sides teasingly, “I can make it all romantical and junk for ya.”
“Romantical..” Shadow scoffed, cringing as his blush and scowl deepened.
“Haha yeah!” Sonic confirmed. “Unless you don't want that? Anyway, basically the top is the one who sticks it in and bottoms the one who takes it, yeah?” He informed rather crudely.
“Charming.” Shadow deadpanned, pinching Sonic's side as a warning not to be a jackass.
Sonic yelped and giggled, “You know how I be, so? Top or bottom princess?”
Shadow might actually kill this blue hedgehog instead of fucking him, Gaia knows he deserves it ten times over. He then took a moment and thought it over, unsure which would be best to start with for his first time.
Sonic seemed to grow tired of waiting on his answer. “Well, we could always just go with whoever is smaller bein’ on top? Easier that way for all involved.”
“You top.” Shadow finally answered, his response monotone.
Sonic barked a laugh, “Wow, that's presumptuous.”
“It's probably accurate.” Shadow smirked. “I'm rather.. sizeable.” He admitted, keeping lidded eye contact with his astonished rival.
“Oh yeah?” Sonic laughed. “Prove it then! Whip that thang out!”
Sonic laughed harder as Shadow groaned and rolled his eyes, clearly unimpressed with Sonic's continued tom foolery.
“It's hardly an accurate representation of my size currently, hedeghog.” He grumbled. “I'm not exactly.. aroused at the moment.”
“Oh?” Sonic smirked, pulling Shadow closer and wrapping his arms up so his hands held the backs of ebony shoulders. “Let's fix that then.” he drawled, voice lowering as his head did, closing the few inches of space between them to lock lips with Shadow.
Shadow allowed Sonic to guide the kiss, tilting his head upwards to press more firmly into his rival. As he wrapped red striped arms around the hero's torso.
Sonic seemed rather happy with their progression, humming into the kiss and pressing his arms and hands tighter against the hybrid to pull him up and closer.
Sonic broke the kiss to nuzzle against Shadow's neck, earning a low needy pant from him in response. Already embarrassingly worked up from a short, barely minute long make out session.
“You're so hot, Shadow.” Sonic rumbled against short obsidian neck fur. “Fuck..” And started peppering kiss after kiss there, sucking on certain areas before nibbling them and kissing gently over them once again.
Shadow groaned as Sonic continued, striped arms squeezed around a bright blue waist, before letting go in order to roam over the hero's plush and athletic body. Squeezing the fat along his sides, and chest before dipping back around to grab at Sonic's flanks.
Sonic yelped, jumping a little in his grip before pulling back from his rival with wide eyes and a wider smile.
“Hello there!” He laughed. “Someones feeling rather bold.”
Shadow rolled his eyes and squeezed Sonic's ass harder, earning him another yelp of surprise from the hero.
“We are here to have sex, aren't we?” Shadow stated matter-of-factly, his voice a low growly rumble of exasperation.
Sonic's eyes lidded, growling low in the back of his throat as he was riled up. Before shoving Shadow back into the door behind them by the shoulders rather unkindly, a cobalt knee pressing into the space between Shadow's thighs.
“That we are.” He rumbled, leaning forward again to continue his firm sucking and nibbling.
Shadow groaned, throwing his head back and knocking upturned quills against the wood of the door. Grabbing onto Sonic's flanks harder, he began pushing the blue hedgehog against him, forcing his swelling pouch to rut against Shadow's upper thigh.
“D-damn Shadow..” Sonic breathed, his breath ghosting over wet neck fur causing Shadow to shiver from the chill of it.
The hybrid groaned in response, allowing his head to fall against Sonic's shoulder to hide his face. Both of them rutting together in tandem with one another.
“F-feeling aroused now Shad?” Sonic chuckled into his shoulder, grinding his knee harder into Shadow to get his point across.
“Ngh.” He groaned, “Y-yes, now shut up.”
Sonic sighed into his neck, “you love telling me to shut up, huh Shadow?” he asked rhetorically, chuckling as he pulled back to appraise Shadow's flustered and determined face. “Are you ready for our little show and tell then?” He asked.
“Why.” Shadow panted as a cobalt knee grinded into his pouch again. “Do you f-feel the need to word things like that?”
“Word things like what?” Sonic giggled, running his hands up over Shadow's shoulders before following the red stripe down to his inhibitors. Never breaking the charged eye contact with his favourite rival.
“You know ‘like what’.”
“Naahh.” Sonic drawled, pulling back in to nip the cuff of Shadow's ear so it flicked reactively. “I don't think I do.” He cupped Shadow's sizable bulge with one hand, as he licked over the previously bitten cuff.
Shadow moaned, squeezing his eyes shut and resting his forehead arrow against Sonic's sturdy shoulder. Squeezing his ass one last time before releasing his hold to shove Sonic back by the shoulders.
“I've had enough out of you!” Shadow growled as he led Sonic backwards towards his messily made bed. Sonic's face breaking out into an extremely exhilarated grin as he did so.
“Ohh yes, that's what I'm talkin’ abo-”
Sonic was cut off as Shadow shoved him back unforgivingly, Sonic landing on his back with a loud “oof” before having his mouth attacked by a ferocious hybrid on a rampage as he quickly crawled over the hero.
Shadow growled in between each kiss, “you.” Kiss, “are.” Another one, “so.” Yet another one, this kiss growled into quite loudly, a string of saliva following Shadow's mouth when he pulled back to spit venomously. “Annoying!”
Sonic keened into their sloppy, vengeful makeout, threading his hands through red and black quills.
Sonic let Shadow lick, bite and suck over his lips for a few more moments, before inevitably growing impatient. Shadow bit at Sonic's lower lip, tugging it a moment before pulling off with a suck. And that's when Sonic decided it was time to flip their positions.
With a surprised gasp from Shadow, Sonic wrapped his arms securely through his head quills and along his lower back. Using the grip to flip him towards the top of the bed, and lay him on the pillows there.
Shadow groaned as something sharp dug into his back just below the spines there.
“What the hell?” He growled, pulling the blanket back to reveal a stray book. “You can't be serious.” He deadpanned, grabbing the offending book, and haphazardly tossing it across the room.
“Hey!” Sonic reprimanded, “Come on man, that-” and was cut off yet again by Shadow's mouth on his.
“Zip it hedgehog, now hurry up and get to fucking me.”
Sonic rolled his eyes, “Okay, okay, geez.” And grumbled under his breath as he got off the bed to rifle through the bottom drawer of his dresser. “Condoms or no condoms?” He asked, holding the box up to show Shadow. “I've been tested recently, so I'm good to go either way.”
“I can't catch or carry diseases, idiot.” Shadow deadpanned.
“Oh yeah.” Sonic laughed. “Right, I forgot. No condoms then?”
“No condoms.” Shadow confirmed, before rubbing over his own bulge to confirm that he was still hard.
Sonic watched the movement avidly as he crawled back onto the bed between Shadow's legs, tapping the hybrid's knee to silently ask Shadow to spread them. Which he did.
“Sweet.” Sonic purred, removing his gloves slowly as he appraised Shadow's swollen pouch with his emerald eyes.
“Now whip that thang out boiii~”
“Really, Sonic?”
“Yes really.” Sonic chuckled, “Lemme see it.”
“You're such a dick.” Shadow growled, making Sonic wait longer just so he could punish him for his idiotic wording.
“Yes, yes. I'm a dick, and I wanna see yours, now get to it!” He grinned, rubbing a now gloveless hand up Shadow's thigh.
Shadow swore at Sonic under his breath, making a big show of being grumbly and huffy as he finally relented. And allowed his fully hard cock to meet the warm air of the bedroom, the member bobbing slightly against his belly.
“Shit.” Sonic breathed the minute he caught sight of it. “You were not kidding about the whole “sizeable” thing, huh?”
“I never “kid” hedgehog.”
“I mean..” Sonic huffed a short laugh, “You do sometimes.”
“Rarely.” Shadow deadpanned, “Now it's your turn, fool.”
“Huh?” Sonic took a sec to catch on, “Oh. Yeah, right. Dicks.”
Shadow laughed despite himself, watching as Sonic removed his own semi-hard length from his pouch.
“Ehh, he's not at full attention at the moment.” Sonic chuckled, “so don't judge me too harshly.”
“I'm judging.” Shadow jested, nudging Sonic's leg with a socked foot playfully.
“Wow.” Sonic giggled, leaning over his rival with lidded eyes. “So mean to me.”
Shadow's own eyes lidded as Sonic came up closer to his face, hands bracing on either side of the hybrid as he did so.
“Well..” Shadow started, voice a low rumble. “I'd be nicer, but something tells me you like it when I'm mean to you.” He drawled, leaning that little bit more forward to nip at Sonic's lip. “Freak.”
Sonic groaned as the tension broke and their lips met, snarling into the kiss with bared teeth. Clearly ready to move things along, Shadow's low tone and playful insult having riled him up further.
“Damnit Shadow.” Sonic practically growled, taking the clear bottle of lubricant he'd grabbed earlier into his hand and popping it open. “I'm gonna start prepping you.” He warned, pulling away from Shadow's tan lips to kiss over his jaw and into the crook of his neck. “Lemme know if anything doesn't feel right.”
Shadow keened at the pleasurable feeling of his neck being suckled on, arching his chest into Sonic's. “Okay.” He breathed, unable to say much else as Sonic's now lubed fingers trailed over his tight lower muscles.
Shadow watched as Sonic kissed lower, nuzzling into white chest fur a moment to appreciate its softness. Before tilting his head to the side to firmly lick over the hidden nub of Shadow's left nipple.
The hybrid sucked in a hiss as Sonic licked over it a second time, then sucked his mouth over the area. “F-fuck.” Shadow breathed the swear, tilting his head back while Sonic finally entered him during another gentle suck over the sensitive spot on Shadow's chest.
“Thatta boy.” Sonic groaned against Shadow's chest. “Taking it so well.” And pumped his finger, the intruding digit only going in about half-way. “How's that feeling so far?”
Shadow groaned in annoyance, not appreciating being questioned while he was trying to relax.
“F-feels.. weird?” He answered truthfully, it wasn't pleasant just yet. And Shadow couldn't help wondering to himself how exactly people enjoyed this.
Sonic chuckled, swiping his tongue across the left nipple one more time before switching his attention to the other.
“Yeah, it's gonna feel a bit weird at first. I didn't enjoy it much the first time either, but’cha get used to it.” He reassured, quieting again when he continued to give attention to Shadow's nub with firm sucking kisses.
Shadow tilted his head back, closing his eyes in an attempt to relax, and just let himself feel for a moment.
He felt a twinge of jealousy at Sonic not being a virgin like he was, a selfish part of him wishing they were on equal footing with their experience levels.
But no matter, it was probably for the best, at least one of them knew what they were doing.
The hybrid groaned again, panting into the open air and twisting his gloved hands into cobalt quills to pull Sonic closer to his chest. Feeling Sonic smile into the tender area as he did.
After a few more moments of shallow pumping, Sonic plunged further in, crooking his finger as if searching for something. Before pulling out, adding more lube and adding another finger.
“Still good?”
Shadow gripped Sonic's quills tighter, hands interwoven between them so as to not stab himself on accident.
“Y-yes.” He grunted, puffing air out through his nose as he attempted to breathe through the strange new sensation.
“Good, good.” Sonic humped against Shadow's thigh, seeking stimulation as he crooked his fingers up into the hybrid with another languid lick over a perked nipple.
Shadow gasped suddenly, as Sonic's finger knocked something inside of him. His cock jumped where it rested upon his stomach, leaking excessive amounts of pre over the tense area.
“S-sonic..”
“Hmm?”
“D-do that again.” He pleaded.
Sonic didn't answer verbally, just shifted to kiss against Shadow's collarbone while fulfilling his request. Crooking his finger into what Shadow assumed was his prostate.
Shadow moaned, the tone growly and broken, devolving into a whimper as Sonic's fingers sped up to abuse the same spot over and over.
“S-sonic.” He moaned, cock twitching against his stomach. “Sonic, hah- ngah-”
Sonic's tail began slapping against Shadow's leg, the blue hedgehog humping down onto his thigh faster as Shadow's noises egged him on.
“F-fuck Shadow.” He moaned and turned his muzzle into Shadow's throat to give it a hard suck, no doubt bruising the skin under dark fur. “You have n-no idea what you're doin’ to me man.” he canted cobalt hips again, “I'm so d-damn turned on hearing the noises you're making.”
Gloved fingers tightened in Sonic's quills, making the hero groan. Sonic then removed his fingers to once again add more lube, thrusting three in the next time he entered Shadow's stretched muscles.
Three were a little harder to take, but the lube helped, Shadow grunted as Sonic continued to speed up his fingers overzealously.
“Sonic, S-Sonic.” Shadow tried getting his attention, turning his head so that his lips were against a peach and cobalt ear. “P-please, hah-”
“Please what?” Sonic asked, his voice breathless from rutting against his rival.
“I.. I need you..” Shadow paused to catch his breath and steel himself. “Now.”
Sonic pulled back to look him in the eye, searching them as if looking for any sign he wasn't ready.
“You sure?”
“Yes.” Shadow hissed. “Now hurry up.”
Sonic rolled his eyes good-naturedly, “Pushy.” he chuffed, before pulling his fingers out with a slick sound, wiping them off on his own cock then adding more from the bottle of lube.
The hero wiped the excess slicked on his hand against the side of his blanket (gross) not having grabbed a towel beforehand to help with cleaning up. (A problem for future Sonic and Shadow)
Shadow slid his hands over Sonic's plump chest as he lined himself up at Shadow's entrance. Looking up into crimson eyes to check for any negative reactions, Sonic pressed in, panting at the first feel of Shadow's heat stretching around the head of his cock. The hybrid groaned, brows knitting together as pressure built at his core, not painful, but not quite pleasant.
Sonic grabbed the space where Shadow's thighs met his body, holding on as he watched himself carefully slide into his rival. A low groan exiting them both.
“D-damn, you're so tight, dude.” Sonic stated, groaning as his fingers flexed where they gripped into ebony fur. “And hot too, I know you have a high body temp and all t- that… but man. This is insane.”
Shadow grew annoyed once more at Sonic's unending need to comment on everything.
“Could do without the commentary, hedgehog.” He grunted, frown severe as he tried to keep his voice steady.
Sonic just laughed, as he typically does. Before pulling Shadow towards him to slide the rest of the way into his cock, cobalt thighs meeting the back of his with a dull slap.
Shadow gripped at Sonic's chest, fingers flexing into the short peach fur.
“F-fuck!” He yelled, arching his back. “Sonic!”
“Oh fuck..” Sonic moaned above him. “You feel s-so good.. hah- you okay?”
“Y-yes.” He gritted out, lower muscles flexing and stomach twitching as he curled himself upwards a little bit. “Now shut up and move!”
Sonic huffed “you got it, boss.” Before beginning at a languid pace, carefully moving his hips back and forth with a firm grip still set on Shadow's upper thighs.
Shadow laid back on the bed, grunting while he wondered to himself. ‘When was this supposed to start feeling good?’
In the smutty books Shadow had read (his only point of reference up till now) they had talked about sex being this mind blowing, life changing, mind altering experience.
But in reality.. it really just felt like taking a shit or something.
Not really all that pleasant, save for when Sonic had knocked against his prostate earlier.
His dick however, seemed to be enjoying the stimulation more than he was. Leaking pre, bobbing against his stomach with every thrust and feeling overly sensitive compared to how it usually felt.
Shadow grunted at a rather harsh trust from his counterpart, Sonic was panting and groaning above him. Rutting faster as he rambled on about how good Shadow felt, at least he was seemingly enjoying himself..
Sonic seemed to pick up on Shadow's souring expression, pausing his movements to address his rival.
“Uhh, you okay man? Not looking overly happy there.” He asked, stroking a hand through his chest fur to comfort him.
“Fine.” Shadow muttered, “Just.. doesn't feel...” he considered his next words carefully, exasperated by his lack of ability to word his feelings properly. “Like I thought it would.” He settled on.
“Hmm” Sonic considered him a moment, continuing to stroke through soft white fur. “Maybe we could try another angle..” he thought out loud. “Hold on lemme.. lemme try somethin’” Sonic muttered, grabbing underneath Shadow's thighs to fold him forward a bit. Allowing Sonic the room to angle his cock into Shadow's prostate, and rut a little faster if he needed to.
Shadow panted, nervous but willing to see where this would go. Not stopping Sonic as he began to move again, shifting to angle himself just right.
And that.. that was it.
“Hngh” Shadow grunted, “R-Right there.”
“Yeah?” Sonic smiled to himself, proud to have found the right spot. “Okay, sweet. Stroke yourself while I do this, yeah?”
Shadow resisted the urge to tell Sonic off for telling him what to do, ripping his gloves off to firmly grab his own cock and begin stroking.
And oh, finally Shadow could sort of grasp why people seemed to enjoy sex so much. It was nowhere near the life altering experience his corny smut books claimed it to be, but it was certainly becoming increasingly more enjoyable.
He began stroking himself faster, head tilting back as far as it could with upturned quills pressing into plush pillows. And groaning loudly while Sonic pressed his legs forward further, practically folding the hybrid in half. As blue thighs met black, wet slaps of fur on fur sounding out between their stuttered grunts and wanton moans.
“Hah- Shadow- I.. crap I-I'm so close already.” Sonic panted, gripping Shadow so tight his blunt claws pierced skin. “Fuck, man.. shit.”
Shadow laughed at Sonic's expense, the sound clipped as Shadow was pounded into.
“P-pathetic..” He grinned, “Your mouth is far dirtier than what I expected from you, hedgehog.”
Sonic laughed, not letting up his brutal pace. “Oh, I'll show you how dirty my mouth c-can be, Shadow.” He moaned again as Shadow clenched around him. “J-just you wait, w-when I suck you off at some point, y-you'll see.” He laughed again, the sound sloppy, making Sonic sound drunk.
“Bold of you to assume this will ever happen a-again- shit!” Shadow gritted his teeth at a rough thrust.
“Bold huh?” Sonic folded Shadow further, leaning his body over him, continuing to pound away as his face came up closer to Shadow's, puffing hot air against a honey tan muzzle. “The way you're clenching on my cock tells me otherwise, admit it Shadow. Y-you're loving this.”
“Ngh-” Shadow keened, tilting his chin up to meet the kiss Sonic was threatening him with. He pulled back a moment to growl into his rival's face. “Y-you talk too much.”
Shadow continued stroking himself, even as his own dick was angled at his chest fur. Sonic had folded him almost in half, as the two locked lips breathlessly.
Sonic broke the kiss this time to let out a guttural grunt, “F-fuck Shad.. I'm, Oh- I'm- hah-”
Sonic didn't finish that thought, his body going ridged above Shadow, thrusts stopping as he buried himself home, spilling deep inside his rival as he shook with his orgasm.
“Ah- shit..” Shadow swore as he felt hot liquid burst inside him in ropes. His own legs shook where they were held against him, and with a few more strokes to the tip of his cock. His belly flexing and jolting, Shadow followed Sonic's lead, cumming with a deep and powerful yell.
Sonic panted as he finally stopped shaking, his hands sliding up from ebony thighs to cup his knee-ditches instead. Keeping Shadow folded as he tilted his head up to kiss over him feverishly.
“That..” Sonic said between sloppy, frantic kisses. “Was so good, holy shit dude.”
Finally the hero relinquished his grip on Shadow, allowing his legs to drop, an ache shooting through them from being in the awkward position for so long.
“Hmm” Shadow agreed. “Not bad, hedgehog.”
Sonic giggled against his lips, his breath puffing against Shadow's. “Oh? not bad, huh? I'll have to up my game next time then.” He paused to laugh. “Let's see if I can get that five star review.”
“Pheh” Shadow laughed as Sonic pulled back from his face, stroking peach hands across Shadow's chest and torso as he watched the other breath. “We shall see, Sonic.”
“Yeah?” Sonic asked. “So there will be a next time then?” He sounded hopeful, tail smacking the bedsheets where it wagged behind him.
Shadow rolled his eyes half-heartedly feigned annoyance written on his face.
“I suppose you have proven yourself to be worth my time, so yes. There may be a next time”
Sonic's ears perked up on the top of his head, face breaking into a wide happy smile before turning flirty again.
“That's good enough for me, I'll hold ya to that Shad's.” He smirked, leaning over him to press one last chaste kiss to tan lips. Before finally pulling out of him with a quiet hiss.
“Oh, shoot.” Sonic murmured, “I totally forgot to grab somethin’ for clean up.. whoops.”
“Fool.” Shadow huffed at him.
Sonic said nothing to that, fixing Shadow a playful glare before asking for a moment and quickly jolting off in a blur of blue. He was back within milliseconds, his member tucked away back into its pouch. Sonic began carefully cleaning up his own mess from Shadow, a hand gently bracing itself on the back of Shadow's thigh to keep him open.
“I can do that myself, you know.” Shadow grumbled, trying to hold on to his grumpy persona even now. “I don't need your help.”
Sonic paid him no mind, chuckling to himself as he continued to clean Shadow.
“I know, but sometimes it's nice to be taken care of, yeah?” He shot Shadow a warm smile, quickly trying to get Shadow's own spend out of his white chest fur, before giving up and turning to throw the wet towel into a clothing basket a short distance from the bed.
Shadow made to sit up, just getting to his elbows, a dull ache shooting through his tail. Before Sonic gently shoved him back down with a gentle nudge to his chest.
“Ah, ah. Not yet, tiger.” He petted Shadow's fur once more, leaning down to curl up next to Shadow. Nudging the hybrid onto his side so that they could spoon, wrapping peach arms around his rivals waist. “First, some aftercare.” He smiled, nuzzling into the space between Shadow's neck and shoulder.
“Pheh” Shadow scoffed. “I don't require your “after care” I'm the-”
“Yes, yes.” Sonic interrupted with a groan, mocking Shadow's voice with his next words. “You're the “ultimate lifeform”” he huffed before continuing “but hey, even ultimate lifeforms need to be cared for every once in a while, man.”
Sonic swiped his tongue over Shadow's neck to begin grooming him, causing the self proclaimed ultimate lifeform to shiver at the sudden tenderness to the sensitive area.
“Let me do this for you.” Sonic whispered, his voice husky against Shadow's neck.
Shadow suppressed a whimper, heat stirring in his gut again as Sonic continued licking over him.
Shadow sighed deeply as he gave in to the tender care Sonic provided, honestly quite surprised by the hero's unnaturally sappy behaviour.
“Fine.” He put on an exasperated huff, relaxing in Sonic's hold.
After a good few minutes of attentive grooming, Sonic paused to nuzzle his nose into Shadow's cheek. Holding it there and breathing against the short fur.
“Also I was thinking.” Sonic began. “We should totally read together sometime, I got a few books that I think you might like.”
Shadow doubted it, but hummed in agreement anyway. “Whatever.” He dismissed, closing his eyes to wait for Sonic to continue with the soothing care.
Sonic blew a laugh into Shadow's muzzle, disturbing the fur there by accident, before fixing it with a couple of well placed swipes of his tongue.
“Well, that wasn't a no.” He joked, chuckling again as Shadow let his grievances be known with another low groan.
“Maybe.” Shadow sighed, “If you can prove to me it won't be a waste of time, I'll consider reading your recommendations.”
“You're on!”
And with that, Sonic took off in a streak of blue, no doubt to go find his aforementioned book recommendations right this moment. Instead of waiting till later.
Shadow breathed a deep, long suffering sigh, placing an arm over his own eyes as he rolled over onto his back.
“That damned fool.” He muttered, choosing his battles and deciding to let this one go. As he sat up to grab his discarded gloves and make his way out to join Sonic.
But not before tipping over the large pile of books stacked on Sonic's bedside table. A small act of revenge, as he began walking towards the door. Shutting it behind him with a knowing smirk and a soft ‘click’ joining Sonic as if nothing had ever happened.
