Chapter Text
Shadow sat in 0 period, tapping a pencil against his leg, music blasting through his earbuds as he waited for class to start.
The door swung open for what felt like the thousandth time that minute, and two people entered the classroom: one, a tall girl in a red dress and red boots, golden bangles clanking around her wrist as she tucked her pale pink hair behind the headband perched on top of her head. Her other hand clutched onto a slightly taller boy, blue spikey hair blown about, his classic red shoes, blue jeans and blue sports jacket ever present on his body. The two idly chatted for one second as Sonic's eyes scanned the room. Catching sight of shadow, sonic let go of Amy's hand and sprinted over.
Shadows' dark black leather jacket restricted his arm movement as he dug his phone out of his pocket and turned his song down. Sonic slid down to the seat across from Shadow, Amy following suite (slightly bitter) as she sat down next to sonic, grabbing his hand again.
“Sorry ames.” Sonic apologized, before turning his attention to the man across from him.
“How was your weekend?” Sonic asked casually as Amy reclaimed his hand.
Shadow’s stomach lurched seeing the closeness of the two. The constant public affection disgusted him. Was it jealousy? Outwardly, he would never admit to it. Ever since Sonic had accepted Amy's invitation to date, the two had been attached. Shadow hated watching the couple, and so pushed himself to the side, only to be found again and again by the self proclaimed “blue blur”.
“Shadow?” Sonic waved his hand in front of Shadow's face.
Shadow jumped, clearing his throat and hurriedly responding “good. Me and Rouge went downtown to this new dinner place. It was good.”
“Ooh! We should go there!” Amy suggested, leaning onto Sonic's shoulder.
Sonic shrugged her off, smiling, “we’ll see!”
Shadow was thankful for the bell that rang seconds later.

“Groups are on the board, the presentation will occur on Thursday and friday-” the professor says, the slides above him switching.
Shadow scanned the board.

Shadow cursed under his breath.
