   Summary

   Shadow tried making excuses, he really did. He could say that he didn't know how it all started, but every single word and heartbreaking look was stuck in his brain like a painful splinter. Painful enough to never let him forget it.

   He and Sonic had had an argument, that in itself wasn't out of the ordinary considering they were long-time rivals way before their relationship. But this was different. This was deep, deeper than any late night conversation fueled by insomnia and unhealed trauma. This was fueled by fear, and Shadow really didn't want to admit that that fear had gotten the better of him in the end.
