❀⊱You’re Mine.⊰❀ ⤷ Shadow the Hedgehog | one-shot

synopsis: He’s just looking out for you.

warnings: creepy behavior.

a/n: This was supposed to be the yandere headcanons remake but it ended up being one-shot instead. Oopsie! Also, I didn't know how to categorize it. It's not quite suggestive but it's also not really sfw? I dunno, you guys tell me lol.

Shadow stood outside of your apartment's kitchen window, his hand twitchy as it hovered over the windowsill. His hand closed into a fist as he steeled himself. He needed to see you. He hadn't seen you all day and he was worried. What if something had happened to you? He wasn't even sure if you were home, even though you should be. He knew your schedule, he memorized it.

And you deviated from it.

Shadow grabbed the edge of the barely cracked open window, lifting it slowly yet impatiently until it was all the way opened. He put one foot onto the sill, slowly lifting his body inside. Sadly, his foot shifted and he knocked over one of your succulent plants, falling over with a clack and almost falling off of the sill. Thanks to Shadow's quick reflexes, though, the pot it was in didn't break. He set it back down onto the windowsill and let out a breath. His reprieve was short-lived, however, when the creak of a door and the plod of bare footsteps was heard from down the hallway.

Shadow quickly slid himself out of the window and hopped onto the tile floor of your kitchen, hiding himself under the table. So you were home. He was glad to know you were safe, but angry that he wasn't able to protect you at all times today.

You rounded the corner, wearing your favorite fuzzy slippers, and a disheveled robe. Shadow blushed heavily, you were only wearing a tank-top and panties underneath! How uncouth! You should be dressed properly, and comfortably, for bed. Shadow watched as you passed by the table and opened the fridge, grabbing your water purifier. You moved over tot he cabinet next to the window and stopped, staring at it. Shadow stopped his breathing, his heart rate high. Do you know that he's here?

"Huh. Thought I closed that," you say, a yawn forming mid-sentence. You close the window and grab a glass form the cabinet, filling it up with the water from the purifier. Putting the purifier back, you start heading back to your room, drinking your refreshing water along the way.

Shadow got up, silently following you. You were so sleepy that you didn't even notice him following you. Yet another reason why he has to protect you. You don't even pay attention to your surroundings.

You set the now-empty cup on your nightstand, flopping onto your bed unceremoniously. Shadow watched form your door as you started softly snoring in minutes. He chuckled to himself quietly. Your antics were cute to him, one of the many qualities he liked that he'll never admit.

Shadow made his way over to you, his hand hovering over your arm for a moment before moving his bed down to your comforter and sheets, tucking you in, making sure you're comfortable. His eyes trailed back up to your face, taking in your sleeping features. He sat down on the side of the bed, his hand moving up to lightly touch your cheek. You're just so beautiful. He wants to keep you safe, where nobody can hurt you. Where nobody else can touch you.

Shadow leaned in, his face barely touching yours, as he stared down at your lips as you softly snored. He closed his eyes and leaned in a little bit more... Before stopping, dipping his head down. He can't steal a kiss from you like that. He'll wait for you. After all, he's your only protector. He'll wait patiently by your side forever.

He leaned away, sliding his hand down your face, lightly touching your neck as it traveled down, passing your chest, tracing in-between your breasts before finally settling down at your hip. Shadow shifted his position on the bed, laying down next to your sleeping form, his hand still on your waist. That's when you suddenly moved in your sleep, stretching before tossing to your side, hugging onto Shadow. His face flushed as you held him to your chest.

Shadow's eyes were wide in shock. His body was tense, he wasn't use to being held. The last time he was held was... His eyes welled up with tears. He held you back, though a bit tightly. He laid there in your arms, feeling safe. He was supposed to be the one to protect you, though, wasn't he? Now he's being protected by you. He knew you were special. You belong to him.

Shadow closed his eyes. Maybe he'll just stay there for a few more minutes....

"You're mine. All mine," he whispered to himself.

Guess who has been thrusted into the Yandere Shadow the Hedghog hole~!

That’s right, it’s me. I’m fucking cringe.

Anyway, I wanted to share some of my own headcanons for a Yandere Shadow. I’ve seen so many cool ones but nothing that’s unhinged enough for me. (I’m sorry, I like them crazies.)

(Reader is assumed to be a Mobian.)

First things first: as soon as Shadow meets you for the first time he’s obsessed with you. Either because you act similarly to Maria or because of other factors, he’s head over heels.

He’s the type to watch you through your windows at night, Scream movie style (love Matthew Lillard). He excuses this to himself as “just protecting you from possible break-ins,” but we all know it’s because this boy is down bad.

Sometimes he’ll call your phone while outside, just so he can see your facial expressions as the two of you talk.

Weeks go by like this without you even knowing he’s even out there. To be fair, he’s practically invisible thanks to his fur (quill?) color.

You get so used to talking to Shadow on the phone so much that you don’t even notice when he’s entered your home, either through an unlocked window or door. He might even just chaos control his way inside.

He mostly just watches you sleep, might even caress your fur, hair, or quills as he thinks to himself: “Mine.”

It might even get to the point where he climbs into your bed and listens to your breathing as he cuddles you, all while you’re none the wiser. (Too much? Haha.)

Strangely enough, you tend to wake up more refreshed than usual on those nights that he does. You also have strange dreams, which is not helping the already-developing crush that you’re having towards Shadow. (But we all know those aren’t just “strange dreams.”)

Even though Shadow is a brick wall when it comes to expressing his emotions, his teammates (specifically Rouge) notice his odd behavior. And, it isn’t long until they call him out on it.

Of course, Shadow just brushes it off. They don’t understand. He wants to protect you. He needs you.
