Rouge Story

It was one innocent phone call that started it all for Rouge. Her cell rang as she was lounging about in her apartment, and she answered it casually with a bored expression. “Yes?”

“Hey. Got a lead for you” came  familiar voice from the other line. It was a contact of hers, a pawn shop owner that she occasionally got some good info from. “I think this might be a big one.”

“Keep talking” Rouge said as she stood up, her interest immediately piqued. It had been a little while since she’d gone on a good heist, and there had been no word that anything world-threatening happening either, so this was welcome news.

The voice on the other end chuckled before he continued, as if he could see the expression on her face. “This guy came into my shop today and asked me some pretty weird questions. At first he was just talking about precious stones… but then he asked me how much he could get for something like a Chaos Emerald.”

Her eyes widening, Rouge felt her body tense up. She tried not to her hopes up too much, after all this was more than likely nothing. If it was true though, then this could be huge. “Did he have it with him or anything?”

“No, and not long after he left the shop. He probably realized he said too much.” Rogue groaned in frustration, but the guy chuckled again in response. “I didn’t get his name or anything either, but I did happen to get his licence plate number as he was leaving the parking lot. I’ll send you the picture when we’re done talking. He was a guy in his late twenties, brown hair. Pretty average looking.”

“Excellent, thank you.” Nodding to herself, Rouge smiled. That would be plenty enough information to work off of. “And if this lead turns out to be genuine I’ll make sure you get your cut.”

“That’s why I like working with you, I don’t even have to ask. Good luck.” With that the call shut off, and she began making preparations.

-

It was right around sunset as Rouge finally located the house she was searching for, and she smiled to herself as she strode confidently up to the door. There was even the car in the driveway with the same licence plate she had been given earlier. Thankfully due to a few people owing her some favors she had easily pulled retrieved the info for her potential target, a man in his late twenties named Alex. She grinned to herself, feeling almost sorry for the guy. This would be all too easy. Before knocking on the door she checked herself over one last time, smoothing out a couple of wrinkles on her suit, adjusting her glasses and making sure she was showing plenty of cleavage. Satisfied with the state of her disguise Rouge reached up and knocked on the door, adjusting the briefcase in her free hand.

There was nearly a minute’s pause before she heard footsteps, and then a moment later the door opened as Alex looked down at her. He was wearing a pair of jeans and a loose hooded sweatshirt, his feet bare. “Oh. Good evening. Can I help you?” It was the same face as the one she’d seen on the driver’s licence, though he did admittedly look better in person even if he did have unkempt brown hair.

“Yes, you can in fact.” Reaching into her breast pocket Rouge withdrew a card and handed it over to a curious Alex. “My name is Barbara, I’m from a group called the Tyrell Corporation. I won’t mince words with you, we believe that you are in possession of a Chaos Emerald. We were hoping that maybe we could offer you something for it.” It was true that she was taking a large risk here. Normally she would just break in and steal the thing while he was at work or something, but frankly she didn’t know if it was true he even had the thing in the first place. Better to confirm that it existed now, and if that didn’t work she could try Plan B later.

Alex’s eyes widened a bit but to his credit he didn’t react much besides that. “Where’d you hear something nuts like that?” he asked casually as he pocketed the card.

“Our organization does have a substantial information network” Rouge answered cooly. She had to stop herself from smirking, his reaction had given it all away. Lifting the briefcase and looking around briefly Rouge flipped the tabs and opened it, showing Alex the neatly arranged money inside. This time she had to stop herself from bursting out into laughter as he openly gawked. “And if the rumor is true I’m authorized to make a deal for a substantial sum.” Closing the briefcase with a snap, Rouge allowed herself a small satisfied smile. The money was counterfeit of course, but judging by his reaction he had no idea whatsoever. She would only have to keep up this charade only a little bit longer and then she’d have her prize, she could feel it.

For a minute Alex looked hesitant. He scratched his head as he thought, and there was a brief moment where Rouge was unsure if she’d succeeded. “Well…” he said slowly, glancing surreptitiously at her breasts, “I suppose it wouldn’t hurt to hear you out.” Stepping aside, Alex held the door open wide for her.

“Thank you.” Rouge’s smile didn’t drop off her face as she was led to the living room, Alex sitting on an armchair while she sat on the couch. Thankfully her feminine charms worked just as well on humans.

“I suppose I should introduce myself, sorry about that” Alex said slightly awkwardly as he gave her a smile. “I’m Alex. Though I suppose your company probably knew that already. Would you like a drink or anything?”

Shaking her head, Rouge laid the briefcase out on the coffee table in front of her. Though she spoke calmly, she couldn’t help but feel giddy about the goal in front of her. “I’ll be fine. I’d like to get this done quickly if at all possible. So. Are the rumors true? Do you have a Chaos Emerald?” Alex paused for another long moment before simply nodding. “Is it here? May I see it?”

Alex nodded again. “...Sure. Just a minute.” Standing up, he left the room without looking back. Rouge felt strangely apprehensive, there was something slightly suspicious in the tone of his reply. However she considered that it was probably just nerves as Alex came back into the room, sitting back down in his chair. He held up a cloth bag, and Rouge could see the noticable lump of the item within. “Right here.”

“Can you take it out of the bag for me?” Rouge tried her hardest not to sound impatient as her eyes stayed glued onto the sack.

“No.” Alex’s answer was short and curt, and Rouge found the smile dropping off her face as she felt a twinge of annoyance. Placing the bag next to him he looked right into her eyes. “I’d like to settle on a deal first.”

Nodding back, Rouge smiled. “Of course.” Reminding herself to take this slow and steady, she reopened the case. “We’re prepared to give you everything here, and if we confirm it to be the genuine article we’d give you this twice over. I hope that would be satisfactory for you?”

Reaching down, Alex picked up a stack of cash and flipped through it. “Damn. That IS a lot…” he mumbled to himself. Frowning, he sat back in his chair. “I dunno. This is a big decision to make at once.” Taking out his phone, Alex began fiddling with it as he thought. “I might want to get an opinion or two about this from others.”

“That’s completely understandable.” Looking down at the case again Rouge snapped it shut and locked the clasps. There was a clicking noise from Alex that made her glance up curiously, but he appeared to be paying attention to his phone and not to her at all so she just shrugged it off. Standing up, she smiled at him. While she had planned on drawing this out a bit longer, frankly this guy didn’t seem too bright. She would just get this over with right now. “Excuse me, do you mind if I use your restroom?”

“What?” glancing up, Alex seemed momentarily confused before nodding and waving his arm vaguely. “Oh, right. Yeah, down the hall, first door to the left.”

“Thank you.” Rouge began to walk past Alex and then stopped, looking him over. “Oh, one thing.” Licking her thumb, Rouge leaned in close to Alex as she reached up and pretended to wipe something off of his cheek. She made sure that he had a nice, good look at her cleavage while she was at it. “Sorry. You had a smudge on your face” she said in a sultry voice.

“Oh… um… thanks” Alex said in a small voice. His face was red now as he glanced briefly to her breasts and back to her face again.

“Don’t mention it.” Standing up straight Rouge walked away slowly, making sure that he was watching as she left the room. Then, as soon as she was out of sight, she began to hurry down the hallway as silently as she could. Her heart was racing as she reached the bathroom and quickly locked the door behind her. He hadn’t even noticed that she’d swiped the bag, which even now rested in one of the pockets of her suit coat. Thankfully on the wall there was a window, and after she scrambled up onto the toilet she slid it open and began to push the screen out.

Of course, even though Alex wasn’t that bright the human wasn’t dumb. “Hey, Barbara?!” came his voice, coming closer fast. There was a pounding on the bathroom door as Rouge finally pushed the screen free. “Open up!”

“Sorry honey” Rouge replied smoothly, climbing up to the window. “Better luck next time.” She slipped out easily, landing on her feet as she sprinted away. She was briefly aware of Alex’s voice shouting from the window, he must’ve opened the door somehow even if it was too late.

Not far away Rouge made it to her parked motorcycle, and getting on she quickly fired it up. She was about to drive away as fast as possible, but her curiosity overcame her. Reaching into her suit pocket she extracted the bag, and with slightly trembling fingers she worked at the drawstring knot. “I wonder what color it is… ohhh I hope it’s the pink one” she said giddily. Finally the knot came free and reaching in she pulled the gem out.

The smile died on her face. The stone inside was indeed pink, but it was just a cut piece of quartz, not a Chaos Emerald. She stared at it for a bit, uncomprehending before glancing dismally inside the empty bag as if hoping that it contained a second gem. After another minute of silence Rouge let out a frustrated growl, shoving the quartz back inside the bag and throwing it angrily onto the grass nearby before putting on her motorcycle helmet and speeding away. “That son of a bitch…” Rouge muttered to herself, narrowing her eyes. Oh, this wasn’t over by a longshot. No way.

-

It was nearly a week later as Rouge sat in a rented car not far from Alex’s house. She had been casing out his place every day since the incident, and now she was ready to make her move. Every weekday Alex went to work for around nine hours, so once he left today the plan was simply to break in and search the place. She had got here nice and early, a hat pulled down over her face as she waited.

Thankfully, right on schedule Alex’s car came around the corner. Rouge was ready, making sure to angle herself so that he wouldn’t notice her as the car sped past. There was no mistaking that car, its engine even had a slight whine to it that was very distinguishable. After watching it go out of sight, Rouge waited another half an hour or so before getting out of the car and making her way to Alex’s house, trying to be as nonchalant as possible. The lock opened right up after a bit of picking and in no time at all she was there in the house, closing the door behind her as she looked around. Well, time to search she supposed.

The next couple hours passed as Rouge began searching the place slowly and methodically. She checked every drawer, behind every piece of furniture and in every possible nook and cranny she could find. After her first major search of the place however, she hadn’t found anything interesting at all. Walking back into the living room Rouge sat down on the sofa with a grunt of annoyance. Glancing at her watch she could see that it was a little after one, which meant that she only had a few hours left until Alex showed back up. Standing up, Rouge tried to psyche herself up a bit. Of course it wouldn’t be that easy, but she was confident she’d find it. Thankfully even if Alex did show back up home early, she’d hear his car coming far enough in advance to quickly leave the place.

Of course she should have known that even thinking that would jinx everything. As Rouge got up to begin looking around again, the door suddenly opened and Alex walked right in. He glanced at her and jumped, his eyes widening as he just stared at her. Rouge could only just stare back, like a deer caught in headlights as she too fought for what to say. The two just ended up standing there, unmoving.

“Well. I didn’t expect to see you again so soon” Alex finally said, breaking the silence. His body relaxed, and turning away from her he took off his sweatshirt and hung it on the hatrack near the door. “Do you want a drink or something Barbara? I’m gonna make one for myself.”

Frowning, Rouge followed Alex as he left the room. She didn’t know why, part of her was saying that she would have just run as soon as she was caught, but she was annoyed to admit she was intrigued. “A drink? Seriously? Aren’t you going to call the cops? And where’s your car?

Shrugging, Alex still looked unconcerned. “I thought about it. I almost went and talked to them after the last time. But nah, I’m not gonna do that. It’s just going to cause more problems, if you think about it. As for my car, I dropped it by the shop since the office is closed today and I got a cab home” As he walked into the kitchen, Alex looked around at the mess Rouge had left behind in her search. “Damn. You really tore this place apart, huh? Anyhow, do you want that drink or not? I’m making a whiskey sour.”

Hesitating, Rouge felt unsure. This was not the attitude she had been expecting from this guy at all. However she figured that this might be advantageous. His guard still seemed down, maybe there was a chance she could still get the location of the emerald out of him. “Fine. I’ll take one, sure” she conceded with a nod. Alex almost seemed to smile in return as he looked away and made his way to the counter where he kept his alcohol. “So, what exactly do you mean ‘more problems’?”

Snorting, Alex rolled his eyes as he prepared the drinks. “There’s just one person I told about the Chaos Emerald. And I didn’t even tell the guy, I hinted I might have something like that. With just that I’ve already got someone here at my place trying to steal it.” Turning back to her now, Alex passed her a drink as he sipped at his own. “If I told the police what I had, do you think the rumor wouldn’t spread more? I don’t need that Eggman guy sending robots after me or something. I can tell it was a mistake to say something in the first place, really.”

“Well you’re probably not wrong about that” Rouge conceded as she too sipped at her drink. “So if you’re not gonna call the police… what are you gonna do?” She felt very weird right now discussing this so casually with him. It was like they were discussing what they wanted to eat for dinner or something.

“I dunno” Alex said with a shrug. “I kinda feel like I’m in a catch-22 situation because of you if I’m being honest. I take it you’re gonna keep trying to steal the gem?”

“Of course” Rouge shot back, though she regretted it almost at once. She was feeling a bit off her game right now with this guy, normally people were a little more guarded around her.

Surprisingly Alex laughed. “It’s kinda cute how open you are about it” he said with a grin. Feeling annoyed, Rouge looked away from him as she felt a blush rise to her cheeks. Taking a long pull of his drink, Alex looked her in the eye again. “So. I’ve been thinking. If you want the gem that bad why don’t we just make a deal for it? I know the money from the other day was fake, but could you just offer me some actual cash?”

“I… suppose I could” Rouge said a little uneasily. She hadn’t even considered simply bargaining with him for the gem, but now that the subject was broached she might as well try it. “I couldn’t offer nearly as much as that fake offer I made though. Maybe… 1/20th of the amount?” She did have a little bit of money put aside, and even though it would hurt to give that away if he DID agree to it it would be an absolute steal.

Shaking his head, Alex clearly rejected that outright as he frowned. “No way. Not nearly enough, sorry.”

Rouge sat back as she drained her drink. She should have figured it wouldn’t be so easy. “Fine then… I could maybe offer to do something for you?” An idea came to her mind as she sat up straight. “I could steal something for you if you’d like? Maybe you want some famous painting or gem?”

“What?” Alex looked vaguely annoyed now. “No, absolutely not. Then I’d have a famous piece of stolen artwork, which would be even harder to sell and I’d probably go to prison.”

Sighing, Rouge tried thinking for a few minutes. “...I don’t know what I could offer you then” she murmured to herself as she pursed her lips. Glancing to Alex, she raised an eyebrow. “Look, there’s gotta be something you want for the gem right? I’m willing to do anything. If it’s just money then I could get it together, but it’ll take some time.”

The expression that crossed Alex’s face was hard to read as he studied her face. “...Anything?” he asked, clearly intrigued.

“Within reason, of course. But yes” she said simply. She meant it too, after all this was too good to pass up.

“Fine then. Yes, there is something I want from you, and I’m willing to give you the emerald for it” Alex’s face had broken out into a wide grin now as he settled back in his seat. “I want to fuck you.”

It took a moment for those words to register in Rouge’s head before she sat up straight. “Wait… what?!” she asked in alarm.

“What, is that asking too much?” Alex asked curiously.

Getting her emotions under control again, Rogue folded her arms and glared at Alex. “Now wait just a second. We were talking about money, and now you suddenly just want sex? What am I, an idiot? Am I really supposed to believe that you’ll give me the Chaos Emerald if I hump you?”

Shrugging, Alex looked unconcerned. “To be honest, this whole encounter with you has given me a lot to think about. Like I said earlier, if anyone else finds out I have this thing then I might be in real trouble. Not only that but selling it isn’t going to be simple at all and I don’t really have the money to buy bodyguards or anything like that. I mean, if you came after me for just a small rumor then what’ll happen when it’s confirmed I have one?” Finishing off his drink, Alex reached out and took Rouge’s glass as well and began making two more. “I’ve been thinking lately that it would probably be best if I just got rid of it as fast as possible. So, frankly this works out for me as well.”

Nodding in response, Rogue wordlessly took the second drink Alex gave her and started sipping at it before speaking again. “That makes sense, but I still don’t understand why you’ll give up the Chaos emerald for that. I mean, even if you sold the emerald quickly for a fraction of the price you could still make a lot of money.”

“It’s simple.” Alex paused with his drink halfway to his mouth as he looked Rouge over, his eyes exploring her body. “I’ve thought you were ridiculously hot since the moment I met you. Plus you have those amazing tits. Getting to fuck you in exchange for the emerald seems fair to me for that reason alone.”

Momentarily speechless, Rogue could only avoid Alex’s lustful gaze as she sipped at her drink in embarrassment. As much as she hated to admit it, she was a little flattered to hear that a night with her was worth that much to him. “...Well, that makes sense” she said after a pause, unsure of what else to say. Rogue was starting to get a little annoyed with herself as she sat up straight and looked Alex dead in the eyes. This wasn’t like her to get so timid. It wasn’t like she was a virgin after all, she would just look at this as a business transaction. “So tell me. What assurance can you give me that you even have the emerald or that you’ll even hand it over?”

“None, I guess” came Alex’s blunt reply. That wasn’t good enough for Rogue though as she sat back and crossed her arms, so he sighed and reached for his phone and began fiddling with it. “Fine… I can at least show you this.” As he held up his phone to her Rogue leaned in eagerly, and on the screen she saw what was undeniably the blue Chaos Emerald sitting nonchalantly on Alex’s coffee table. “I took this before I hid the thing properly” he explained as he put the phone back in his pocket.

“Hmm…” Rogue took another long sip at her drink as she drummed her fingers on the table, thinking hard. Right now she was torn. Part of her was saying that she should turn down the offer, then she could come back here and search again with a clear head. However, if she hadn’t found it already then there was a chance that he buried it somewhere or maybe even put it in a safety deposit box of some kind. She could follow him around for a while and see if she could find something out, true, but that would be risky and of course he now knew that she was actively trying to steal it. “What… exactly are the terms you’re proposing?” she asked cautiously, deciding to get some more information before making a choice.

Alex hummed to himself in thought as he glanced over his shoulder at a clock on the wall. “Well, it’s twenty minutes ‘till three right now” he noted as he looked back at Rouge. “So how about this? From now until eight AM tomorrow, you’ll stay here with me and I get to fuck you whenever I want. Then I’ll bring you to the emerald and you can have it.”

Feeling a little self-conscious under Alex’s gaze Rouge broke eye contact as she bit her bottom lip. That would mean staying the night here with him. Seventeen hours in total. “I… let me think it over a moment” she mumbled as she drained her drink. Right now she could really use another, and thankfully Alex seemed to read her mind as he took her glass.

“Take your time” Alex said absentmindedly as he made yet another pair of drinks. He smirked as he handed her a fresh one and settled back into his chair. “I didn’t think you’d get so flustered over this… you’re not a virgin, are you?” he asked, curiously.

Scoffing, Rouge glared at Alex indignantly. She was pretty confident that she’d had sex with more people than Alex, probably with more women too come to that. “Of course not. I’ve just never… gone that far with a human before, that’s all.” Annoyed at the smirk on his face Rouge suddenly made up her mind as she took a long sip of her drink. “Fine” she said simply, suppressing a smirk at the look of surprise that crossed Alex’s face. “But I have a few conditions if we’re going to do this.”

“Go ahead” Alex prompted, sitting back with a look of interest.

“I’ll be blunt. First off, no anal sex.” Rouge crossed her arms and gave him a fierce look. “There’s no way I’m gonna let you fuck my ass for seventeen hours.”

Though he looked vaguely disappointed, Alex nodded. “That’s fine, I agree.”

Nodding back, Rouge let her body relax just a little. That was one big concern off her mind. “Second… well, I don’t exactly know what you’re planning, but I want the right to refuse if you propose something kinky.” There wasn’t anything in particular Rouge was worried about, but she didn’t want to be blindsided with something like whips without warning.

“Alright, sure.” Alex looked unconcerned as he shrugged. “I was always planning on some pretty basic sex, really.”

“Good. And the last condition…” Rouge looked Alex dead in the eyes and gave him a fierce glare. “If it turns out that you don’t actually have the Chaos Emerald, or if you try to weasel out of holding up your end of the bargain… trust me, you’ll be very sorry. I’ll see to that personally. I have… ways of getting back at you, believe me” This was the last major concern on her mind, after all it wouldn’t be crazy to think that he had simply pawned it off for some cash already and now he was using this to his advantage. Rouge meant what she had said, though she was willing to go along with this she would have her revenge if he was lying. There were some rather unsavory people that still owed her some favors after all.

Though he did look a bit intimidated for a moment, Alex was still calm and collected as he answered. “I meant what I said. I have it here, and if you’re willing to go along with this then I’ll give you the emerald after you’ve held up your end of the bargain.” Leaning forward in his chair, he fixed Rouge with an unblinking stare. “So? What do you say?”

Rouge took one last moment to think it over as she pursed her lips. She would be taking a gamble on this since she hadn’t seen the emerald with her own two eyes. However Alex did seem sincere, and ultimately this would be quicker and easier than having to think of a way to steal it in time. “Fine” she agreed with a nod, holding her gloved hand out to Alex. “I agree.”

Alex nodded back as they shook on it, eyes locked. “It’s a deal then.” As they let go of each other, Rouge had no idea of what to do next and Alex seemed to be the same judging by the way he looked to be searching for something else to say.

“Well…” Rouge tried to push aside the awkward atmosphere as she stood up confidently and reached down to pull her shirt off. She figured that she may as well just get this over with. “I suppose you want to start right away?”

“Woah, hold up for a sec” Alex replied quickly, holding his hands up to stop her. He grinned pleasantly at her, settling back in his chair. “It’s true that I’m eager, but we’ve got all night. I haven’t even eaten today. Why don’t we just relax for a bit? I’ll make us lunch and we can put on a movie or something. What do you think, Barbara?”

Though Rouge wanted to refuse at first, now that she thought about it she also hadn’t eaten today. Not only that but she certainly wanted another drink or two. “...Alright then. And the name’s actually Rouge, by the way” she said after a moment’s pause, not wanting to sound too enthusiastic as she settled back in her chair and drained the rest of her drink. “I do retain the right to veto any movie, by the way.”

“Of course, Rouge” Alex replied amicably, not missing a beat.
-

“So anyway, the guard demands to search me, and even though he gropes me in the process he STILL never finds the diamonds hidden right in my tits!” Rouge said with a huge grin on her face, settling back after she finished her story.

Alex let out a burst of laughter before grinning at her. “Ah, that’s hilarious. I’d love to have seen his face when he found out the truth.” Sipping at the remains of his beer, he raised an eyebrow. “...Your line of work does sound exciting. You ever worry that you’re gonna get in over your head someday?”

Letting a smug smile creep across her face, Rouge finished off the last of her own can. “I’ve been able to handle myself pretty well so far, I think.”

“I’ll say.” Alex reached out and took the empty can from Rouge, still grinning. “After all you’ve been able to handle your alcohol pretty well. Do you want another?”

Pausing to consider, Rouge nodded. “One more, sure.” She smiled to herself as Alex wandered off towards the kitchen, picking up her bottle of water and drinking idly as she listened to the music in the background. Glancing at the digital clock on the DVD player, Rouge was a bit surprised to see that nearly four hours had passed. Thinking about it, she had to admit this whole experience had been a lot less awkward than she thought it would be. Rouge was still a little anxious because Alex hadn’t tried anything physical yet, but she appreciated that he was at least making some effort to make her feel at ease before diving right into things. They had started off by simply talking as Alex prepared a stir-fry lunch, followed by a viewing of Event Horizon after she insisted they watch a horror movie. After that the two had simply conversed for a while, at first about the movie but then simply trading small talk for a while. As she considered it all, Rouge let out a wry laugh as a strange thought occurred to her. This was, ironically, the first time she had actually watched an entire movie with a guy where he didn’t try to stick his hand down her shirt or pants.

“What’s up?” asked Alex as he came back into the room, passing Rouge another can of beer. He sat back down on the couch, closing his phone as he placed it on the couch.

“Nothing, don’t worry about it.” Opening the beer, Rouge's face spread into a grin as she held it up to Alex. “Cheers.”

Alex gave his own smile in return, clinking their drinks together before both took a long sip. For the first time he started to look just a bit nervous as he shifted his position slightly. “So Rouge, I’ve been wondering… uh, do you have a…” he began before he was interrupted by his phone chiming.

Rouge had only glanced at it due to the noise distracting her, but almost at once she saw something that made her take notice. Reaching out, she grabbed Alex’s phone before he could and stared closer at the screen. Sure enough, the background of his phone was a picture of her in the business suit getup she had worn a few days earlier. She wasn’t looking right at the camera true but you could still clearly make out her features quite well, and of course it had a very generous shot of her cleavage as well. Looking up, she gave Alex a stern look. “Why exactly do you have a picture of me?” she demanded.

To her surprise, Alex didn’t look guilty at all as he took his phone back. “Well, I mean you were a mysterious woman who showed up on my doorstep with a briefcase full of fake money, wanting to buy the item I told one person about. I don’t think you can blame me for taking a picture of you just on how sketchy that is alone.” Rouge did feel that annoyed edge draining away as she conceded that he did have a point. Before she could say anything though Alex spoke again, looking a bit nervous this time. “That’s not the only reason though… I meant what I said earlier. I’ve thought that you were beautiful since the moment I met you. I just thought that if you left I might never see you again, so I wanted a picture of you for myself.”

“Oh.” Rouge felt quite flattered as she looked for something to say. She couldn’t seem to break eye contact as she just said the first thing on her mind, leaning in a bit closer. “Thank you. I… think you’re quite handsome too.”

There was a long moment where neither one spoke or moved until Alex leaned in quite suddenly and kissed her. At first she was surprised, but Rouge quickly got over that as she closed her eyes and slipped her tongue into his mouth. Alex responded in kind, and for a bit Rouge just marveled at the size of his tongue as the two made out, pressing their bodies closer to each other. She nearly let out a gasp when Alex reached down and grabbed her ass, pulling her in closer as his hands kneaded her butt.

Finally the two broke off the kiss, a glistening strand of saliva connecting their lips momentarily before dropping off. “Well…” Rouge said breathlessly, running her hands along Alex’s chest as she tried to regain her composure. “I guess we’re getting down to business then?” she asked with a smirk.

“Guess so” Alex responded simply, releasing her ass with a huge grin on his face. His eyes roamed her body briefly, and Rouge could feel his erection throb against his jeans.

“Alright then.” Smiling at Alex, Rouge got off the couch and stood up as she reached behind her back, fidgeting with her top for a moment before she unzipped it and slowly pulled it over her head. Her smile nearly turned into a smirk when she saw how closely Alex was watching her as she dropped the top onto the floor, her breasts now only covered with a black bra. Rouge then moved her hands slowly down to her pants, taking her time unfastening the belt and zippers before sliding them off as well. Stepping out of her discarded pants, she pointed to Alex with a frown. “I’m not going to be the only one in my underwear, am I?” she asked as she took off her socks. The key here was to take charge. It was true that this would be her first time with a human, but Rouge was sure that if she controlled the pace of this she’d be fine.

Alex kept grinning as he began to undress. He looked almost giddy now as he pulled his shirt off and began fiddling with his pants as he stood up. Eager as he was he still gave her a curious look as he pulled his pants down, revealing a pair of boxers which very clearly outlined his erection. “So, I’ve been thinking. Earlier you said that you’ve ‘never gone that far’ with a human before… so I’m the first human you’ll be fucking, right?”

Rouge raised an eyebrow, nodding. “Yes. Why do you ask?”

“Well I was just wondering, how far HAVE you gone with a human before?” Alex asked with obvious interest, sitting down as he took his socks off.

For a moment Rouge felt a bit nonplussed, but she quickly recovered as she gave him a curious smile. “And why do you want to know that?”

“Just curious” Alex said with a shrug as he settled back on the couch, now clad only in his underwear. “You don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to, of course.”

Pursing her lips, Rouge considered for a moment. She had never actually told anyone about her… encounters with other humans, not even Amy or her other friends. Her gut reaction was to do the same here and tell Alex that it was none of his business, but after considering it for a moment she was surprised to find herself beginning to speak. “Well… there’s been three humans I’ve fooled around with before.” She briefly looked at Alex as if checking if he wanted her to continue, and seeing his interested expression she continued. “The first was one of my friends at the bar I frequent, Camila. I was a little curious at the time, about humans and about other girls, so one weekend when we were drinking at her house the two of us began fooling around a bit. It wasn’t anything too serious, mostly just groping each other and eating each other out, but it was my first time doing something like that with a human.”

“Wow.” Alex was looking at her with rapt attention as he leaned forward. “That’s pretty fucking hot. So, what was the next time?”

Though the memory was a slightly unpleasant one, Rouge found herself speaking again almost against her will. “The next one probably won’t be as hot then. It was not long after I had became a thief. I had successfully pulled out a couple of heists, and I had set my sights on an art gallery that had some valuable jewelry on display. I thought it was going to be an easy job, it was just some relatively small-time place after all. But when I finally broke in I ended up being discovered by one of the guards. He was slacking off in a place I wasn’t expecting and listening to music, and he happened to spot me. At first I thought I was done for because he pulled out his radio, but to my surprise he looked me over and told me he’d make me a deal.” Rouge paused now, though she had been speaking freely this was the part she always disliked thinking about.

“And? What was the deal?” Alex put his hands together, his interest not having wavered for a moment.

Once again Rouge found herself speaking as she looked into Alex’s eyes, almost as if the words were being drawn right out of her. “He said he’d let me go if I sucked his dick, to put it bluntly. I tried to weasel out of it of course, but the guy made it clear that he could easily call the other guards any moment. So… I sucked his dick. It was pretty unpleasant, but he came quick enough so I suppose it wasn’t too bad all things considered.”

Alex’s brows raised in surprise. “I’m shocked he just let you walk out after that, honestly.”

Letting out a brief laugh with no humor in it, Rouge shook her head. “Oh, he didn’t really. In fact after he was done, he tried changing the deal so that I had to fuck him. Luckily for me the guy was kind of an idiot, and he didn’t even notice I’d taken out my stun gun until it was too late. I wish I’d been able to do it sooner, of course.” Looking away from Alex for a moment, she frowned at the memory. The guard’s penis had tasted particularly awful.

“I see. Sorry you had to go through all of that” Alex said, his eyes gazing into hers as she looked back up. “So, did you still get away with the heist?”

“Well, of course.” Rouge smiled again. “In fact I took his walkie-talkie, so it was even easier for me to move around the place.” The thought of it was cheering her up again, she had really made a lot of money in the end. “I heard the guy was found unconscious with his dick hanging out. I never did check if he lost his job or not.” She shrugged, unconcerned. He had been extremely aggressive when he was insisting on sex, after all.

“And what about the third?” Alex pressed, watching her with intrigue.

This time Rouge hesitated for a moment. She hadn’t ever intended on telling anyone this particular story, even more so than the other two. However she had actually felt rather good telling Alex about these incidents, it was a relief to finally get them off her chest after so long. So, slightly reluctantly, she began to speak. “The third… was a human I met at a bar when I was on vacation once. I don’t even remember his name, to be honest. We were drinking and getting along… then we just kind of started fooling around.”

Raising an eyebrow, Alex grinned. “How far did the two of you get?”

“We just ended up fooling around a bit, nothing too serious. We… that is...” Rouge hesitated before she said more. Even though she had been completely forthright so far, she found herself being evasive as she answered. “We made out, and I ended up jerking him off.” It was true of course, though it hadn’t exactly been the entire truth.

“So…” Alex kept grinning as he reached out and grabbed Rouge by the waist, drawing her nearer as she climbed into his lap. “It’s really true, huh? I’m gonna be the first human to fuck you?”

“Yup” Rouge tried to seem quite confident as she smiled back. “Lucky you.”

Alex moved his face closer to hers, and as he did so Rouge could feel his erection throbbing against her thigh, straining against his boxers. As much as she hated to admit it, the feeling was really beginning to make her horny. The two kissed again, slow at first, but gaining intensity as they leaned into one another. Alex’s hands came up to her back almost at once, unsnapping the band of her bra in one quick movement. Rouge didn’t miss a beat, pulling the garment out from between them and tossing it aside, and even as she did so Alex’s hands slid up to begin playing with her tits.

Rouge moaned briefly into his mouth as Alex pinched her nipples, and she pulled away for a moment as she gasped for breath. ‘Remember, take control of the situation’ she thought to herself as she looked into Alex’s eyes. “So… how about I start by sucking your dick?” she offered, smiling devilishly at him.

To her absolute shock, Alex thought about it for a moment before shaking his head. “Nah. Not yet” he said dismissively. Before Rouge could complain though, one of the hands on her breasts slid right down to her waist, slipping inside her panties. “I’m enjoying myself too much.”

“Wait, I-” she began, but was cut off as Alex’s questing fingers quickly found her pussy. She moaned as they brushed her lips, and then without even a warning Alex slipped two fingers right inside her. She gasped out loud this time, eyes widening as Alex began to finger her slowly and steadily. “I… oh…” she managed, wrapping her arms around Alex’s neck for support.

Alex leaned down and began to nibble at the end of Rouge’s ear as his two hands worked tirelessly, one at her breast and the other picking up speed as it plunged in and out of her pussy. She let out a sharp intake of breath, biting her finger to stop herself from making too much noise. This human was… pretty good it turned out. Really good. She hadn’t even hold him that her ears were sensitive.

As Alex’s hand in her pussy slowed down a bit, his mouth made its way slowly down and along her neck, making his way down to her breasts. She leaned back, allowing him access as he took one of her nipples in his mouth, teasing it with his tongue as he sucked on it gently. Rouge bit down harder on her finger, not quite suppressing the moan that tried to escape her mouth. Alex’s hand on her nipple pinched gently, rolling it between his fingers, while his teeth gently played with her other nipple. Finally, readjusting his hand down by her pussy, Alex slid his pinky, ring and middle fingers inside of her while his thumb and forefinger found her clit. As he began to play with it, gently stroking it with his two fingers, Rouge removed the finger from her mouth and used the hand to steady herself on Alex’s shoulder. She was gasping now, loving this feeling as Alex switches breasts, now sucking at her other nipple. A lot of the Mobian men she’d been with didn’t go much in for foreplay. Kind of a shame too, she had missed this.

It didn’t take long after that. Soon Rouge was humping back against Alex’s hand, practically panting as he continued to play with her breasts and pussy. Just as she was beginning to tense up, her cries getting louder and louder, Alex released her breast and brought his mouth up to hers, silencing her as he put his tongue in her mouth. She didn’t care at all, kissing back as she felt the orgasm take her. She eventually had to break the kiss though as her body tensed up, trembling as the pleasure shot through her body and letting out a high-pitched scream of delight. After the moment passed she felt her body shaking as she sat down on Alex’s lap, hands still on his shoulders. She was taking long, deep breaths as she regained her composure, Alex removing his hand from her panties with a smirk on his face. “Guess I did a pretty good job” he said casually, reaching down to her butt and pulling her close. They kissed again, Rouge a little annoyed at his cocky attitude, but not complaining as the two made out.

“You aren’t bad. You have nice hands for a human, at least” Rouge conceded as they seperated, trying to sound just as casual as Alex. In truth she was surprised at how quickly he has brought her to an orgasm, but there was no way she’d tell him that. Now that she had a moment though, she smiled as she began to slide her hands down his chest and towards the waistband of his boxers. “Now it’s my turn. I think-” she began, but stopped as Alex stopped her with a hand on her wrist.

“Actually, let’s put that on hold for a minute” Alex said as he gently but firmly moved Rouge off his lap. “Before we start I’d like to… do something” he said, evasively.

Narrowing her eyes, Rouge glared at him. She had a sneaking suspicion what this was about, and she was also a little annoyed she kept getting interrupted. “Right. ‘Something’. And what would that something be?” She was pretty sure it had something to do with the Chaos Emerald, during this whole encounter she hadn’t let it drop from her mind for a moment.

“Well…” Alex hesitated, not quite looking her in the eye. “We had a lot to drink. I’d like to… use the bathroom before we fool around more, frankly.”

As Alex continued not meeting her gaze, his face beginning to blush, Rouge found herself snorting with laughter. She broke out into chuckles as Alex looked at her with mild annoyance. “Sorry, I just thought… nothing” she said, waving it away. “That’s fine.”

Nodding as he stood up, Alex grinned. “I’ll use the guest bathroom, you can use mine if you’d like. I’ll just meet you in my room in a few, how about that?”

Shrugging, Rouge nodded back. “Sure.” She might as well take this opportunity while she had the chance for a breather. There was no telling how Alex was going to get when the sex started after all. As Alex gave her a quick wave the two separated, Rouge heading to Alex’s room.

Opening the door Rouge made her way inside, stopping briefly as she looked around. The place was a mess, and Rouge was uncomfortably reminded that she had ransacked the room earlier. The bed was clear though, and most of the stuff was pushed against the walls, so they could still use it no problem. Deciding to worry about that later, she made her way into the bathroom. Thankfully she hadn’t torn this place up hardly at all, and she locked the door as she took a deep breath. After freshening up a bit, Rouge looked into the mirror as she took stock of herself. She was just wearing a pair of panties at this point, which were still soaked with her juices. Peeling them off, she stepped out of them before turning on the shower. She wanted a few minutes to think, and this seemed like a good way to focus.

As she stepped into the warm water and began washing herself, Rouge found herself thinking of what she had told Alex earlier, about the three other humans she had sexual encounters with before. She didn’t know why she was thinking about this so much, but she hadn’t exactly been 100% truthful with Alex about the third one. What she had told him was technically true, the two had made out, she had jerked him off, and the two had parted ways. But the reasons for her not pursuing things further had been something she kept from Alex. To be frank, the human from the bar had a huge dick. Not huge for a human, in fact it was pretty average at around five or five and a half inches, but it was the biggest dick she had seen up close and personal to that point. It was even larger than the guard’s penis had been, that had been a little bigger than four inches at most. Seeing a dick that big had managed to make Rouge feel a little nervous, and even though she had been ready to fuck that random human before she found herself just jerking him off and making up an excuse to leave. Of course that was something she couldn’t ever tell Alex, if she did admit that this was making her nervous then there was no way she’d regain the upper hand again.

After washing herself thoroughly, Rouge shut off the shower and dried herself, stepping out and looking herself in the mirror again. She took a deep breath and made a determined face. “Just go out there and be confident” she muttered to herself, smoothing back her hair, adjusting her boobs a bit and then leaving the bathroom without a glance back.

Seeing that Alex wasn’t quite back yet, Rouge sat down on the bed as she considered how she should look when Alex showed up. She tried various poses, frowning as each one seemed a bit too forced. Finally she just went with a demure, crossed-legged sitting position which obscured her vagina from view. As she waited patiently for Alex to show up, knowing he wouldn’t be long now, Rouge realized that if she was ever going to back out of this deal, now was the time. If she really wanted to she could be out of here in a minute, grabbing her car and heading back to her apartment. She found herself not seriously considering this option however. True, this had no guarantee to turn out well. Some instinct told her that it probably would though, and banking on that she sat determined. She’d get that Chaos Emerald, dammit.
