Chapter 1: An Eye Opening Experience


I sigh in frustration as I patrol through Mushroom Hill, usually the guys patrol near their zones for me, but Archie has been getting on my case about shirking my duties. Not that I am, I still patrol the zones twice a month after all. But “You’re the Guardian, m’boy, not them,” I mimic Archie’s irritating reminder under my breath, as if I could ever forget that irritating fact, especially now that there’s an entire city to remind me. It’s not that I don’t like patrolling, in fact Mushroom Hill is one of my favorite zones, it’s just that there’s so much more I could be doing now. ‘Like Julie’ I think, and know she’d knock me a good one if she heard that thought. But I can’t help it, we are soul-touched, and she’s finally mine. And damn it, but this is her favorite zone and I know if I’d have brought her on patrol with me we’d definitely be making love. I know I’m probably grinning like an idiot at the thought, but who wouldn’t be?

But then I hear raised voices in the distance, and I get serious, too faint to hear the words, but they sound like they’re commin’ from near Hydrocity. Probably close to the border, though most Islanders don’t even know Hydrocity is there. I move as quickly and silently towards the upraised voices as possibly, it sounds like just two, male and female. The cadence and tones are familiar, and as I get closer I realize its just Julie-Su and Vector, arguing loud enough to wake the dead. I roll my eyes and close in at a more leisurely pace, not really paying attention to their words. They do this at least once, if not twice a day whenever they’re anywhere near each other, but it’s not really arguing anymore, just teasing banter.
As I get closer the mushrooms thin out and the deciduous trees start getting thicker, Julie suddenly yelps, and there’s the sound of someone being thrown. I feel a sudden flash of rage and start to charge, but the sight that greets me freezes me in my tracks.

Vector has her pinned underneath him, almost exactly how I had her pinned when we first met, he’s smirking obnoxiously and she’s looking up at him as if she can’t believe he actually managed to pin her. The shock of it must be the only thing keeping her down and its obvious that they’ve been sparring. He brings his head down, looking like he’s going to say something to really piss her off, but she bites his nose before he can get it out. He hisses but instead of jumping off of her, he tightens his hold. His eyes flash, and for a second I think he’s really going to bite her back. But he doesn’t. He kisses her.

I’m not as shocked as I should be, when he kisses her. He’s closer to me than any of the other guys. I could tell that after he knew she could be trusted to not betray us, he liked her. A lot. It’s obvious when you’ve got such a heightened sense of smell as me, I can smell his lust for her whenever they banter. They’re always tigerishly bantering. And once his teasing stopped being cruel and started getting playful, I could smell her lust too. I'm surprised at how tenderly he kisses her, almost as if he was afraid she could break at any moment. He changes his hold so that she could easily break it, but she doesn’t. She kisses him back, drawing him closer to her. I feel a familiar tightening in my stomach, and carefully take my gloves off. I make sure that they can’t see me, and kneel down, watching them.

They break the kiss slowly, as if not wanting to stop. Then they look at each other, talking with looks instead of words. I feel my cock harden at the way she’s looking at him, feeling excited that they don’t know I’m here, and knowing from that look that she’s about to pounce. But Vector beats her to the pounce, he’d taken his gloves of while I was watching her face, and now slides his bare hands down to her pussy. She gasps at the feel of his fingers spreading her pussy open. He strokes her slowly for a moment, but then slides his fingers inside her and pushes his thumb against her clit, her hips thrust up at the contact and moans. At the sound of her moans I feel my cock get hard and lower my hand to touch it lightly, teasing myself.

He fingers her a bit longer, watching as her face twists with pleasure. As soon as she begins panting he pulls his fingers out of her pussy, she whines in need and glares at him for stopping. But he puts his hands on her hips and slowly pulls her sweet pussy up to his mouth, pressing his lips against her, tasting her wetness. She moans low in pleasure and I can’t help but shiver, even if she isn’t moaning for me she still sounds so hot. I lick my lips and my self-teasing becomes firm stroking. Her moans get louder, though not loud enough to cover the sounds of his lips and tongue eagerly tasting her pussy. She arches her back and thrusts her hips against his mouth, her sexy lavender eyes half closed as she watches him pleasure her. I feel my stomach tighten and my cock twitch at that look on her face, it’s so utterly sexy its sinful. Her head falls back and her eyes close and her wordless moans become something closer to his name. I look back at Vector, seeing that he moved one of his hands to join his mouth.

‘Damn, why haven’t I thought of that?’ But it’s a fleeting thought as her moans become almost screams and my eyes are drawn back to her face as she cries out for him. Her eyes unfocused and gasping for breath, she comes for him. He takes his mouth away from her pussy, slowly licking her juices off his lips, but he leaves his hand there. I can see that he’s not moving it, but holding it on her clit, keeping her from coming down from her orgasm. She’s making the absolutely most delicious fuck-me-now noises and that obnoxious smirk that she hates so much spreads across his face. He lowers her hips to the ground, keeping his fingers on her clit, and leans over her. I can see her eyes tracking his movement, trying to glare at him, but only looking even more fuckable instead. He moves his free hand to her vest, his smirk predatorial as he rips it off her, while she makes an utterly delightful noise of almost-indignation. I move my hand up and down my cock, stroking it harder as I watch, while he teases her nipples with his free hand.

He finally takes his hand from her clit, and she gasps and moans, sprawling below him in a boneless heap, halfheartedly glaring at his still smirking face. He moves his hand up from her pussy and places his wet fingers against her mouth, her halfhearted glare becomes a sexy smirk, and I stroke my cock harder as she takes his fingers in her mouth and sucks her juices off of them.

He groans deep in his throat, the first noise I’ve heard him make since the kiss, then says “Gods Jules, you have got to be the sexiest woman alive.” Her whole body radiates smugness when she hears him say that, but Vector is too busy watching her mouth to notice. He also doesn’t seem to notice the slightly evil look spreading across her face either, but he does notice when she flips him on his back. I have to hold back a snicker at the surprised look on his face, seems he underestimated my woman’s stamina…
She pressed her tits against his chest and practically purred, “I hope you didn’t think you were actually gonna keep me pinned.” But from his look it was obvious he had that thought exactly. ‘Idiot, if I can’t keep her pinned, how could you?’ I think. Then she grinds her hips down onto his and he gasps at the contact and thrusts against hers. She grins and grinds down again, but this time Vector grabs her waist and thrusts up into her. She arches into him gasping and clenching her hands on his shoulders. I feel my cock throb and stroke faster, as I remember what she’d told me once as we basked in the afterglow…
We were sprawled across her bed, she was laying on me with her head on my chest. “Ah, gods, nothing feels as good as that first thrust,” She nuzzled into my neck, radiating contentment as my fingers traced nothing-patterns on her back “Not even orgasms?” I asked, feeling hopelessly naïve. She laughed softly against my neck, “They come close.”

She grinned fiercely as he held her hips in place and began thrusting quickly into her, her sharp panting became moans as he began to lick and suck her nipples. I could tell from the way her moans were getting louder that she was close to coming again, but I could tell from his frenzied pace that Vector was closer. He moved one hand to her ass, pushing her down, hard, onto his cock, and slid his other between them. She gripped his shoulders hard enough for her small claws to draw blood and cried aloud as she came, Vector moved his hand to her hip and groaned and thrust jerkily as he came in her pussy. I felt my balls tighten and bit back my own groan as I came, spilling all over my hand and on the ground. I lean shakily against a nearby tree, panting as softly as possible.
I hear Julie hit him with her metal hand, he yelps and I wince. That hurts, I know.
“Vector you ass, where am I going to get another vest?”
He whines pathetically and says, “It ain’t my fault you look so sexy nekkid.” I laugh softly at their banter, and she rolls her eyes, getting ready to smack him again.
Good to know some things won’t change.

Author’s Note: Howdy all! This is my first published fan fiction, though I’ve been a fan of Knuckles since his first appearance in Sonic 3. How time flies! Anyways, this story, if you couldn’t tell, is smut. There is going to be at least some lime in every chapter, but it will have an almost plot. Really more characterization oriented than action, not that action! This is also my first serious attempt at a POV chapter, so please let me know what you think about it. The pairings in this story won’t change from Vector/Julie-Su/Knuckles, but if you have any suggestions for settings or dirty deeds, please review!
