Rouge just SAVED Shadow by taking him to the G.U.N recovery quarters. Her and the dogs are mourning outside.

Rouge : Shadow. Why would you love me it doesn't make sense...

Cosmo : *Appears out of no-where* Because...

Rouge : C-C-Cosmo?! What are you doing here? How did you--

Cosmo : I heard about what happened to Shadow...

Rouge : *Starts sobbing again*

Cosmo : Why don't you understand?

Rouge : I thought he didn't--

Cosmo : At first Shadow NEVER understood love but then I told him this morning...

Spike : *Perks up*

Cosmo : He was worried YOU wouldn't love him back. But in a different way.

Rouge : What?

Cosmo : He gets so worried that YOU won't love him back, That he starts misunderstanding what love even is...

Rouge : ...

Cosmo : Please Rouge...

Rouge : I think I love him...

Cosmo : Rouge...All he ever dreams thinks and sees is YOU.

Rouge : WHAT?!

Cosmo : *nods*

Rouge : I......Do love you Shadow...

*CRACK!!!*

Cosmo : Hmm?

Rouge : What is that noise?

Spike : *alert look*GRR.

Lippy : *Perks up*
