-☆. Shadow had recently gotten a huge plushie - it was a near life-size recreation of his boyfriend, Sonic. He cuddled with it every night, and Sonic was rather jealous.

One night, Shadow was cuddling into the plush, kissing it all over as Sonic laid beside him, arms crossed.

"I'm right here, by the way." Sonic spoke, trying to get the attention of Shadow and make him finally stop fawning over the fake version.

Shadow stayed silent, unmoving, contemplating Sonic's words. His arms tightened around the life-size plush slightly, fully returning his focus on the plush.

Shadow, almost knowing how annoyed this made Sonic, smirked and rolled over to Sonic, cuddling him eagerly. "Heheh, just kidding. You'll always be my favourite..."
