It wasn’t exactly like it was unusual for the literal Fastest Thing Alive to beat someone in a race – it should be expected even. Unfortunately for Sonic, beating Rouge in a car race multiple times in a row does a bit of damage to a woman’s ego. He realized it when she left in a huff, uncharacteristically shutting down any of their typical mutual banter. That’s when he knew he fucked up. After leaving an unanswered voice message and unread text, the blue blur had to do something about this predicament and he knew exactly what: no one can resist free pizza.
So, just as planned, he rang at Rouge’s apartment wearing a nice red varsity jacket and a fresh box in hand, still hot from the speed at which he ran over. After a few moments, the blue blur was allowed in and he opted to knock at her door, a mere second later, making sure he was as considerate as possible. Thankfully, she had opened the door, wearing an oversized band t-shirt and fluffy slippers, yet still held a threatening frown on her face.
“Pizza delivery!” He cheered. “For a special promotion, you’ll get it for the low, low price of zero rings!”
“You’re not seriously thinking you can bribe me with this…” She rolled her eyes.
“Is it working?” Sonic chuckled.
“Maybe a little.” She yanked the box from his hands, smirking a bit. “But, it’ll take more than that for me to completely forgive you.”
“I can wait.”
“Oh, please~. Mr. McSpeed being patient about anything? I highly doubt it.” Rouge chuckled teasingly.
“Got me there.” He pulled his hands up in playful defeat.
“Come in, you dork.”
Rouge’s apartment was surprisingly quiet, minus the cheesy romantic comedy that played on her large wall-mounted television. There was none of the rest of Team Dark in sight, which wasn’t that out of the ordinary for Shadow in particular, but it was odd not hearing Omega’s heavy steps thumping rhythmically around the place. Noticing the blue hedgehog’s mild confusion, the disgruntled bat plopped herself onto the sofa and tapped the empty space next to her.
“You’re lucky I’m bored out of my mind, right now. Those two are at HQ for the day. Omega had to get some repairs since the last mission and Shadow had some tests to do. So I’m all alone today.” She whined dramatically, sighing to herself.
“And that’s why you wanted to race with me?” He asked curiously, sitting next to her.
“Yeah, and you had to show off so hard, you didn’t let me win even once!” Rouge huffed.
“Sorry!” Sonic scratched his head awkwardly.
“Eh… it’s not that big a deal, it’s better than going easy on me.” She took a bite of her slice. “I just didn’t think you’d beat me that hard.”
“Sorry… you know how I get when it comes to competitions.” He chuckled apologetically.
“Yeah. You get so~ excited.” Rouge teased.
“It’s not like that.”
“Really? Are you sure about that, hon?” She smirked devilishly. “Because I see it in that handsome face of yours. The way your eyes lit up when I asked you.”
“Oh, come on.” Now it was his turn to whine, a bit flustered.
“You deserve a bit of teasing and you know it.”
It was always like this with them, somehow their banter tended to turn into some sort of flirtatious teasing. The blue blur knew how much his impish friend absolutely adored teasing people, and he would return it in full as a strange battle to see who would win in this game of chicken. However, no matter how much effort and time Sonic had taken to hone this skill, over the years, it was always Rouge who eventually won. Always. It was something she was openly proud of, especially so towards him and Knuckles. She couldn’t help it, they were her favorite victims.
“Besides, you’re the one who said you could handle curves like an expert.”
“And you started it when you said I shouldn't get distracted by you.” Sonic retorted, taking a slice of pizza for himself.
“You can’t fight me on this, hon. You know I’m right.” She pointed confidently.
“As if you don’t like it when I fight.” He smirked.
“Oh yeah, I love seeing you squirm for me~.”
“Pfft. As if. You were the one squirming today.”
“How dare you!” She guffawed semi-jokingly.
“You asked for it.” He chuckled, before taking another bite.
“Oh yeah?”
Suddenly, Rouge had taken the opportunity of his distraction to inch dangerously close to him, placing a seductive finger onto his chest. That alone nearly made Sonic choke on his pizza, as he swallowed hard to brace for impact of whatever evil thing she was about to say. The bat was perceptive enough to notice, no matter how much her brave friend attempted to keep his signature cockiness intact, she could see right through him. It only encouraged her to see how much longer could he sustain it.
“Just because you’re faster than me, doesn’t mean I can’t beat you at anything else~.”
“I dunno… being fast is an advantage to pretty much everything I do.” He chuckled.
“Not everything. Some things are better slow and steady, if you catch my drift.” The provocative bat winked, inching closer.
“Oh, I’m catching your drift alright.” Sonic grinned, though his confidence waned.
“Are you, now? Still confident in handling the curves?” Rouge placed her hands on her hips, tilting herself sideways.
“I’m not the type to back out of what I said.”
“Not even to back out of a bumpy ride?”
“I can handle a little bump.”
“A little? I don’t think that’ll be enough, hon.”
With nothing more to say, all Sonic could respond with was a sheepish chuckle, signalling his defeat. Rouge returned a hearty snicker, satisfied with her victory, finally backing away from him at an appropriate distance. She couldn’t be mad at him anymore when his face was so adorable.
“I have to say, red looks good on you, Sonic.” She teased a bit further, giggling.
“I can’t help getting flustered, when you say things like that.” He scratched his cheek timidly.
“Well, I’d think you would’ve gotten used to it by now.” The impish bat raised a brow.
“Hey, I’m just an average guy. If a pretty lady starts flirting with me, I’m gonna blush.”
“Aw, you’re just saying that so I stop being mad at you.”
“Is it working?”
“You’re such a dumbass.” She elbowed him playfully.
“Ow…!” He chuckled.
A dumbass who still gets all embarrassed over some light flirting when he’s got groupies all around the world fawning for him? The irony wasn’t lost on her. Really, the way the blue blur had always kept himself humble after all this time and all this praise was beyond her. It would’ve definitely gotten to her head by now – in fact, it has. Still, it was something she always appreciated and knew, deep down, that was what kept him from always being there to save the world when it needed him. Nothing like her morally grey self, who had to be persuaded and compensated for. Still, Sonic also knew that it was somewhat of an act, a mask to play to keep things fair and in proper check. He never asked anything for his heroic deeds, but there was still something heroic in Rouge and the rest of Team Dark to still give a helping hand to whatever needed to be done. Thankfully, despite their differences, it was that mutual understanding and respect they shared that kept them being friends for so long. It made things fun.
“You can’t keep your innocence forever, handsome. One day, I’m gonna see that naughty side of yours.” She smirked mischievously.
“I doubt that. I ain't got a naughty bone in my body.” He shrugged coyly.
“Oh, you got a naughty bone, alright~.”
“Geez, Rouge.” Sonic's eyes grew wide in embarrassment.
“Come on, that was too easy.”
“Got me there, I fell into that one.”
They both chuckled at that. With their battle of wits over – Sonic 0 vs Rouge 2 – they contended themselves to simply continue watching the movie instead. He relaxed himself into the comfortable sofa, as his coy friend boldly placed her head onto his shoulder, eating the rest of the pizza together. Not wanting to impose her into restarting it from the beginning, the blue blur asked his roguish friend to catch him up on the plot. It was just as cliché as he expected: A plucky business woman is assigned to the countryside, as a representative for her company, while a gruff gentle-giant farmer teaches her the simple life with whimsy and manly charms – hilarity and romantic tension ensues. As Rouge continuously commented on the ridiculousness and unrealism, Sonic understood her strange enjoyment of watching such cheesy rom-coms. That was until an unexpected sex scene for comedic value had flashbanged his eyes. Of course, the seductive bat thought nothing of it, simply laughing at the absurdity. However, the poor blue hedgehog couldn’t help but avert his eyes at the scene. Rouge, as perceptive as ever, had noticed his awkwardness.
“What? Is it weird watching a sex scene with me?” She teased lightly.
“It’s not just a you thing. I just don’t look at that stuff.”
“Oh, please. You haven’t looked at porn ever in your life?”
“Not really.” Sonic shrugged nonchalantly.
“You haven’t gotten some ever in your life?” She raised a skeptical brow.
“No.” He chuckled awkwardly.
“Now, I know you’re lying to me.”
“I’m not lying, why would I lie about that?”
“I dunno… so I think you’re just a pure innocent man?”
“I’m not trying to impress you with my goody-two-shoes attitude. If I was trying to impress you, I’d be boasting about my goody-in-bed attitude.” His lips quirked into an ironic smile.
“... I know how much you’re surrounded by women and even men, Sonic.” She gave him a dubious look, still unconvinced.
“And I’m not an expert in seduction, Rouge. That's your thing.”
“Touché…” The bewitching bat crossed her arms, realizing he wouldn’t budge on the subject. “But, really… you’ve never been intimate with anyone?”
“You’re starting to sound jealous, Rouge.” He attempted to reverse the embarrassment onto her.
“I’m not jealous. Just… curious.”
However, she couldn’t deny that there was slightly more to her curiosity, especially when he looked so timid about it. That was when she really knew he was telling the truth. Sonic had always been honest to a fault, but when he was awkward about telling the truth, that was when he really was putting out his heart to her. It wasn't really an insecurity for him, it isn’t exactly easy for someone titled The Fastest Thing Alive, who was too busy running around and saving the world, to think about giving another kind of action a chance. Not that he was completely pure-minded either, the routinely suggestive banter with Rouge was proof enough that he’d always found her alluring. How could he not? Honestly, it was just difficult for him to ever stand in one place, it wasn’t in the cards.
“Is it really that surprising that no one has ever been able to pin me down?”
“I could test that theory~.” She teased.
“Stop.” He says, despite laughing. “I’m being serious.”
“And I’m being serious too. You’re attractive, I’m attractive. I wouldn’t mind giving you a test drive~.” Rouge leaned in close, smirking impudently.
“We’re still talking about cars here, right?” He lightly deflected, still unsure if she was serious or not.
“You and I both know that’s not what I’m talking about.”
Conflicted between taking her seriously or not, Sonic stood more still than he ever had in his life, feeling a nervous sweat crawling down his back, as Rouge leaned ever so closer. Slowly, she reached for his chin and placed a surprisingly chaste kiss on his lips. The shockingly flustered expression on his face made it all the more satisfying to see. She understood sweet guys like him – the kind that only want to chase you if you give them just a little of what they really want.
“See? That wasn’t so bad, was it?”
“I never said I was expecting anything bad, I just didn’t know if you were serious or not.” He chuckled nervously.
“So, does that mean you accept my offer?”
“I dunno… I might need a little more convincing.” He shrugged playfully.
“... You’re absolutely incorrigible.” She guffawed.
Despite putting on a brave face, the impish bat knew all too well that the coy hedgehog in front of her was a complete flustered mess, deep down. The way his smile cracked sheepishly when she placed both hands on his muzzle, the way his hands shakily shifted from hovering over her waist to decisively firmly grasp at her shoulders – she knew those signs all too well. Sonic couldn’t deny them, even if he wanted to, his lips were sealed shut by hers, as Rouge pulled him closer to kiss him fully. They were just as soft as he imagined, plump and glossy enough to be worthy of her well-known immaculate self-care. Rouge would be the one to be somewhat surprised by how nice her snuggle partner’s lips were, once she really kissed him much more seriously. Although it made it all the more tempting to continue seducing him even further.
The temptress grew bolder by the second, every kiss became deeper than the last. They weren’t paying attention to the movie anymore, it had long since finished. The only thing they could focus on was their current make-out session growing steamier. Rouge had begun perching over Sonic, her knees on each side of his legs, as she pushed him onto the armrest. He held her closely by the crook of her waist, trying his best to hide the sheepish shock in his eyes. The hedgehog knew she was purposefully continuously trying to catch him off guard, as he caught a glimpse of her impish grin, before closing in for another salacious embrace. It didn’t surprise the blue blur how much of a great kisser she was, though it didn’t make it any easier not to be enraptured by her touch. The only thing he could do is keep up with her – it was what he knew how to do best.
“You can always tell me to stop, y’know?” She suddenly commented, graciously letting him catch his breath.
“And if I don’t want you to?” He retorted breathlessly.
“Then I’m gonna start thinking you really want me, bad~.”
“I’m not sure I want you that badly, just yet.” Despite Sonic’s confidence, he was completely red.
“Hm, playing hard to get, are we?” Her grin grew wide. “I’m not sure you’re as tough as you think, Sonic.”
“I think I’m doing pretty well.”
“If you say so… Don’t say I didn’t warn you~.”
Maybe he shouldn’t have challenged her, he had a habit to continuously boast about his self-assurance to the bitter end, no matter what happens. This was one of those moments that would really bite back at him – this time, literally. Rouge wasted no time pulling him into another deep kiss, slipping her tongue across his bottom lip before nipping at it lightly between her fangs. That alone made his grip tremble under her, however, she wasn’t done. The bat continued by slowly lowering her hands from his muzzle down to his neck and began unbuttoning his jacket. Sonic nearly stopped her, taken aback by the sudden gesture, that was until she continued by caressing each nook of his collar bones and pectoral muscles. The contradicting sensations sent shivers down his spine, as he clung to her waist tighter and let a soft moan escape his lips. The devilish woman couldn’t help expressing her delight in seeing the poor hedgehog melt under her. Still, it wasn’t enough for him to admit defeat, there was more to be done for him daring to challenge her tempting prowess.
Rouge resumed her lustful nibbles, as she unbuttoned the rest of his jacket, letting her hands roam lower and lower feeling every bit of his discreetly defined abdomen. Sonic obviously couldn’t hide the way her touch made him feel, as a low whine reverberated between their lips. Without thinking, he let his hands slip higher lifting up her shirt-dress ever so slightly above her thighs. The gesture had somewhat turned the tables on the seductress, becoming a couple shades of red herself. Thankfully, the blue blur was none the wiser to the point he had made, especially not after Rouge decidedly nipped at his neck for this unknown transgression. The sudden act made him yelp involuntarily.
“Rouge…”
“Hm…?”
“Rouge, I… I don’t want you to take this the wrong way, but…”
“What could I possibly take the wrong way?” She smirked,
“Look, I’m being really serious…” He says through a wry chuckle. “I just… I don’t know if I’m ready for a relationship right now.”
Sonic expected her to be disappointed, as her eyes grew wide in surprise. However, what he didn’t expect was for her to start laughing at him. It was as if it was ridiculous to even mention it – because it was. He didn’t understand the situation at all.
“Sonic, hon, handsome, you didn’t have to take my offer that seriously.” Rouge snickered.
“W-What?” Sonic stuttered uncharacteristically, completely confused.
“Don’t get me wrong, I still don’t mind being intimate with you, even as far as sex goes.” She clarified coyly. “But I didn’t say it had any more strings attached.”
“But I…” He frowned to himself, trying to understand. “I guess I thought it came with.”
“It doesn’t have to. Think of it like we’re just fooling around and having fun, like we always do.”
“I feel like I’d describe this more than just fooling around.” He scratched his head awkwardly.
“I dunno… you’re acting pretty foolish to me.” She smirked, raising a dubious brow.
“Oh yeah? You wanna say that to my mouth, maybe?” He smirked playfully.
“You’re so stupid.”
Maybe it was the clarity to where they stood, the fact that Sonic was beginning to get used to Rouge’s advances, the peaked sexual tension or all of the above. Either way, it emboldened the both of them to continue tenfold their make-out session. As the enticing bat continued her gentle caress down his abdomen, the blue blur was confident enough to fight back, this time. He pulled her closer, one hand ruffling the back of her hair, while the other impurely grasped at her rear. She hummed delightfully at the initiative and rewarded him with a soft bite at his upper lip, before she slipped her tongue between his teeth, as he adorably gasped for air. Despite the deepening red in his face, it didn’t deter Sonic for even a moment to not return her lustful attacks in full. He swiftly slid his lower hand into her shirt tenderly feeling every curve on her body. It was enough to make the bat shiver under his touch, as his warm hand enveloped her. However, his confidence waned once more, right before he reached her chest, opting to stop himself at her ribs. Of course, Rouge had noticed his hesitance to go further, but she had a small hint – or decently sized hint – that told her to egg him on.
“Is that a gear stick, or are you just happy to see me?” She joked.
“Maybe a bit of both.” He chuckled sheepishly, realizing he’d been caught.
“Any further than that, handsome, and I’d be thinking you want to take it up a notch.”
“You know me and going fast.”
“And didn’t I tell you it’s better to take it slow on a bumpy ride?”
Without warning, Rouge had elected appropriate to take his hand that rested so timidly at her ribs to slip further and cup her voluptuous chest properly. It was honestly amusing to see his muzzle somehow grow even redder, biting her lip with carnal desire . Unfortunately for him, she wasn’t done with her teasing, as she promptly reached at his crotch and gently fondled his “gear stick”. He flinched involuntarily at the sudden touch, as a hoarse whine escaped his lips.
“I’d say we move this to the bedroom, handsome.” Rouge gave him a bewitching smile.
“I didn’t even… say that I was accepting your offer.” He still had some fight in him, breathing heavily.
“Oh please, we both know you want it~.” She teased, her fingers continuing to stroke his shaft.
“Ugh… fuck, Rouge.”
Without another word, the blue blur lifted her by the waist and swiftly carried her to the bedroom, within a second. As the mischievous bat suddenly found herself flopped onto her own bed, she was amused by his abrupt rush to fulfil his sexual desires. However, she wouldn’t have the time to tease him on the matter, stopping her mouth from speaking with a steamy French-kiss, as he leaned over her to boldly massage her breast under her shirt, all on his own. Rouge softly bit at Sonic’s lip in retaliation, until she felt his dick poking at her inner thigh. If only it had been a little more to the right.
Decisively, she opted to wrap her legs around his waist to properly feel him. The adaptable hedgehog understood, despite the sensation nearly causing his knees to buckle, as he began grinding his member onto her silken underwear – the only barrier between them. With a burning urge to feel her more, as well, Sonic removed his gloves to explore her curves further, as he lifted her shirt enough to completely expose her chest. Although Rouge would admit she had actively provoked him into doing so, she hadn’t expected it to feel this good. She was beginning to be suspicious of his virgin status again. Unless he really was just naturally that good?
Either way, it was clear that his patience and restraint were growing thin, as Sonic began slipping her lingerie down to her thigh. There was still a moment of hesitance before he shifted forward between her legs, pressing his cock against her now bare lower lips. There was still a part of him that wondered if this all went by too quickly – that it wasn’t very chivalrous of him to indulge in something like this so voluntarily. But, it wasn’t easy to think heroically when half your dick is inside of someone. Not that he was complaining.
“Oh, shit~...!” Rouge whined, squirming lustfully.
Sonic could only respond with a gravelly moan, completely overwhelmed by the arousal of being inside her, falling onto her, as he reached as far as he could. It wasn’t Rouge’s first time, but it didn’t make it any less satisfying for her to do – especially with him. It was something particularly special to feel someone so intimately when you fully trust them. Seeing the fearless blue blur so vulnerable to his primal desires made it all the more attractive. Devilishly, knowing he was still catching his breath with this new experience, she rewarded him with another deep kiss, electing to rhythmically move her lower body. He gasped under her lips, holding her hips for dear life, as he flinched at every movement. Realizing that the expert seductress would stop at nothing to make him squirm, the blue blur had to fight back. Still firmly grasping her hips, he began following her rhythm, though with much better control at his side by being on top, moving more intensely.
Maybe it was only because of his highly perceptive nature, but it continuously caught Rouge off guard how good he was at this. He followed every shift of her body, every sound she made was put into consideration in a lewd game of hot and cold, every attempt to push him further into lust was thrown back at her in full. It wasn’t long before the temptress lost herself in his warm, strong, erotic embrace. Every push inside her made her hunger for more, which he returned with such vigor the entire apartment complex would probably be able to hear at what violence the bed was creaking. That is if her loud breathless moans weren't indication enough. Thankfully, the walls had been preemptively made sound-proof from the rest of its residency, otherwise Omega’s steps alone would have caused police interventions on a daily basis.
“F-Fuck…! Oh fuck, shit…! Hng… y-yes… FUCK! Hah… Sonic, h-holy shit! Don’t stop…!”
“Ugh… mh… shit. Rouge… h-hoh man you’re so… fucking hot.”
Their breathing became heavier and more intense as Sonic gradually picked up the pace. He wasn’t about to slow down now, especially after Rouge pleaded him not to. The next few moments felt like a blur focusing purely on the absolute primal heat of the moment. That was until there was a ferocious pang at his pelvis, immediately followed by an explosive release from his cock. He yelped, as he fell into the crook of her neck, shakily holding her hips as they mutually gasped at the sensation of his load filling her. The bat whimpered shakily, internally admitting defeat in this erotic game. Was her luck so bad today that she couldn’t even win at things she excelled at? This was getting ridiculous.
“You know… you still haven’t said if you accepted my offer or not?”
“After all that?” He guffawed, still catching his breath. “I think this is more than a yes, at this point.”
“Touché.” She chuckled.
“Anyway, you still haven’t said if you forgive me or not.” He returned.
“Obviously, I’d forgive you before I’d start having sex with you.” Rouge gave him an ironic smirk.
“I know.” He chuckled.
“You’re such a dork, you know that?”
“A sexy dork.” Sonic winked playfully.
“You’re so stupid.”
However, Rouge couldn’t help but laugh at Sonic’s antics. It was almost jarring how quickly he recovered from his previously timid-to-complete-horndog demeanor a mere minute ago. But that was what he knew best and made him the most fun to mess around with like this – his ability to always keep moving forward and adapt to any circumstances. Even if that circumstance is just sex.
