Twilight draped the base in shadow. In the room with the single double bed—Silver's forced arrangement—a heavy silence reigned. Sonic, haunted by nightmares of betrayal from his former team, had unconsciously shifted in his sleep, seeking shelter in Shadow's arms.

Outside the door, Silver stood frozen, watching this quiet scene, a secret photo of their kiss saved in his gallery.
