Die with a Smile (Movie Shadow x Reader)

Meaning of the color Yellow: associated with happiness, joy, optimism, and hope

"W-what..?" She asked, feeling tears slowly begin to fall as she tried blinking them away. Shadow sighed as he gently caressed her cheek "I love you, Y/n...all of you. I hate that I didn't realize it sooner, but...I think we both just saw it as a way of us showing each other we care. You've always been my best friend. You and Maria. But..when it came to you...I always felt there was something more."

He chuckled softly "I don't understand these feelings yet...but I know deep down you're all I have left. I've already lost Maria and I won't lose you too! Do you hear me? Do you understand now..?" He closed his eyes placing his forehead against hers. "I've never loved anything more in my entire life, Y/n. I promise my heart will belong to you and you alone."

He felt a small tear fall down, wishing for her to respond as he shuddered a breath "So, please...come back to us..to me."

What? Where am I..?!

You're with me now, N/y..

No! Take me back! I want to-I NEED to go back!

Haven't you been listening to..? We don't need to hurt anyone anymore..

B-but...!

I've seen everything. Shadow loves us, N/y...he loves US.

No! He-...he only said your name! He doesn't care about me. He fears me! They all do!

You are just as a part of me...as I am a part of you.

W..what?

You've helped me through countless of nights. I thought you were just a figment of my imagination, a coping mechanism that took my form, but I realize you're much more than that, N/y. I need you as much as you need me.

You don't understand..! You and I weren't meant to share the same body! How do you expect-

Trust...N/y. The same way Shadow does and Maria too. We don't let...our titles define us. WE choose who we want to be. And I'm more than willing to walk that path...with you beside me.

....I hope you know what you are doing

Don't worry....I do.

He's lucky to have you..

We...both are...

Let's get out of here.

With a sudden switch my head fell back as my eyes returned to normal gasping for air as I clutched onto Shadow making Sonic let go as tears poured down my cheeks. I shut my eyes as I cried into his shoulder "I'm...I'm so sorry!" I felt his hand run through my quills whispering to me that everything was okay now. That I didn't need to hold it in anymore.
