Thermal Expansion

By Swishy Raccoon (Robert Frye)

Getting this trip together to hang out with his best friend was the best idea the raccoon ever had he thought as he merrily strode along the sidewalk to his buddy's house. For years, Byron had had a crush on his best friend, a red fox named Edward, but he couldn't get around to telling him that not only was he gay, but that he also was in love with him and this trip was his plan to break the ice.

He rang the doorbell and a few moments later Edward's mother came to the door; a cute vixen with blonde hair that cascaded down to the middle of her back. She smiled, "Come on in Byron, Edward is just getting his gear together. He'll be down in a bit." The ringtail thanked her and came inside, sitting on the couch. "I hope you boys don't get into trouble. It's pretty cold up in the mountains this time of year." Edward's mother said, sitting in her easy chair, picking up her crochet set.

It was February and neither of them had ever been snow camping or skiing so the plan was to rough it in the snowy peaked caps of the mountains around, and possibly try some skiing, though secretly they weren't going to be near any resorts; they just wanted to camp where no one would spoil their fun. "Don't worry Mrs. Raposa, I'll be extra careful and I always come prepared. I was a cub scout, remember?" Byron said with a grin as Edward came down stairs, his things in a neat bundle on his back.

After they said their goodbyes to Ed's mom, they loaded up Byron's car and set off to their destination. It was a fun, if uneventful drive up the mountains. About the only thing they had to stop for besides lunch and gas was to put the chains on the tires, which being the first time doing so wasn't exactly easy, but they made the best of it, lobbing snowballs at each other and giggling as they worked.

It was getting late in the afternoon and would be dark in about an hour when they finally hiked up to a good place to set up camp. "I only have a two man tent, I hope you don't mind," Byron said; a part of his ulterior motive to be closer to his best friend and crush. Edward smiled and shrugged, "S'ok, it's better than nothing at all. I don't even own a tent." The quickly set up the tent and got a fire going to cook some of the pre-packaged food they brought with them. The night went on with roasting of s'mores, telling of ghost stories and of course a little smoking from the bong Byron packed with him before putting the fire out and nestling into their sleeping bags and going to bed.

"Good night, Ed."

"Night, B."

"Hey, Edward? Um... I have something I want to tell you..."

"Yeah?"

"Er well... Uh... Never mind... I'll tell you in the morning."

"Whatever, B. Night."

Edward fell asleep almost immediately; his back turned towards his friend. Byron on the other hand chided himself silently, cursing himself for being so nervous and not telling his friend whom he knew would understand, even if he didn't feel the same way. Eventually he cried himself to sleep, and swore to tell him tomorrow after they did some hiking.

Morning came and Byron made breakfast, neither one finding the powdered eggs to be all that appetizing and instead filled up on bacon and sausage. They put the fire out and made sure no trace of it was left, just in case an official found it and them; they weren't in a camping area, nor were fires permitted on park grounds. They then packed up the tent and got their packs on and set off hiking, exploring the mountains unrestricted by someone else's rules.

Everything was going great until they found a large frozen lake which their hike had them planned to cross.

"Are you sure it's safe?" Edward said, testing the solid water with a footpaw.

"It should be. The ice this time of the year is thick enough to skate on." Byron said, stepping onto the frozen lake, turning back to his companion. "See. It's fine, come on."

"Alright..." Edward said, stepping out onto the lake, following Byron's lead.

Byron was actually a bit worried because the map he had of the area didn't have a lake marked here, and it was pretty big; at least a few miles across to his estimation. He was a fearless leader though and didn't want to worry Ed. Eventually his own worrying was forgotten when he caught sight of trees ahead, and laughed.

"I'll race ya to the shore!" He exclaimed and began running as quick as he could; the snow fall on the ice making it hard as it is without slipping all over on the slick surface.

"Wait up!" Edward shouted, picking up his pace to follow the 'coon. Suddenly his heart stopped. Byron just disappeared before his eyes and all he heard was a yelp followed by a faint splash. The ice had thinned out and his friend had fallen through!

"BYRON!" He shouted, running to where his friend fell in. He carefully tiptoed on the ice so as he wouldn't fall in as well and crawled to the hole that Byron had made, peering into the not-so-clear blue water. He couldn't see him anywhere. Suddenly he heard a faint tapping a few feet over and scrambled over to see what it was; brushing the snow off the ice. He saw Byron beneath him, pounding the ice in vain trying to break through.

"I'll get you out, B! Hold on!" He screamed, adrenaline pumping through his veins. He threw his pack off and quickly tried to remember where his hatchet was but couldn't even open the zipper and he looked back at Byron, his pounding slowing. "Fuck it!" He shouted and began punching the ice with all his might. He pounded again and again, hearing the ice crack beneath his paws while it was being stained by blood from the sharp splinters cutting his knuckles. With one final slap he broke through and grabbed the freezing wet raccoon from the water and grabbed his back pack and sprinted quickly by cautiously to the shore, building a fire with the emergency stuff Byron had given him in case it rained.

He hurriedly started the fire and set up the tent, which thankfully was on his pack and stripped the shivering young man pulling him inside. "Come on... warm up..." He said as he pulled his sleeping bag over the still moist raccoon. The water in his fur wasn't helping at all but Edward remembered something he saw on TV once about thermal transference. "Don't hate me for this B, it's for your own good..." The fox said, stripping from his clothes and getting into the sleeping bag with his frozen friend, holding him close and rubbing him for extra warmth from the friction.

Soon, Byron stopped shivering but was still unconscious and Edward hoped he was alright and checked his breath, sighing with relief when he heard him breathing normally. "Thank God..." He said, his arm draped over the black and grey form in the bag with him. He thought about getting out and putting his clothes on, but the excitement from before had fatigued him and he soon fell asleep, spooning with his friend.

As he slept he dreamed about the events but soon his mind started wandering towards other fantasies. "Mmm... that feels good..." he heard in his dream. Or was it? He slowly awoke and felt a furry rump pressing against his waist, and his now erect fox cock. Forgetting about where he was he pulled the sleeping raccoon closer and myrred as Byron grinded against him. "You're pretty frisky baby..." Ed murmured in Byron's ear.

Byron moaned back, "Fuck me Ed..." having dreams of his own, and Edward came to his senses, remembering what was going on. He froze for a moment and then felt Byron press his ass against his throbbing hard on, the hot tailhole of his friend exciting him even more as a drop of pre leaked from the head and coated the orifice. At first he was scared, then confused, but he smiled finally seeing his friend in a new light. He had always though the 'coon was cute, even for a guy. He thought himself bi but never really experienced anything with another male before and this got him thinking.

"I'll fuck you, B. Consider it repaying me for saving your life." The vulpine whispered in Byron's ear, causing the sleeping raccoon to moan again and smile. Ed kissed Byron on the cheek and reached a paw to his loins, positioning his prick at Byron's winking entrance and slowly pushed himself inside, gasping from the intense pleasure of heat and tight grip his friend's ass had. Slowly he pushed all his length inside and held it there, the raccoon myrring loudly.

He began to pull out and then thrust inside again, working up a rhythm of slowly fucking Byron's cute butt, his pre cum lubricating the hole as he thrust in and out of the raccoon. Edward lost himself inside his friend, gaining speed and power, and without even thinking he reached a paw around and found Byron's erect cock, leaking its own lube and began to stroke him in time to screwing that wonderful pink pucker.

Byron moaned and myrred, finally feeling his friend inside him as he pretended to sleep. He waited so long for this moment and the feeling of intense pleasure of that hot fox cock inside him, with the knot popping in and out of his hole, Ed's balls slapping against his ass as well as the paw on his cock coupled with knowing his was being taken by the one person he loved for so long caused him to orgasm, shooting his cum against the sleeping bag and Ed's paw.

The smell wafted up to Ed's nose and with one final thrust, he impaled the raccoon, tying with him as his knot swelled, filling Byron completely before he shot load after load of cum deep inside the bowels of his best friend, and now lover. "Mmm," the fox myrred, "I love you..." He smiled

"I love you too, Edward." Byron reciprocated, reaching an arm back to scritch the fox's side. "That was the reason I planned this trip... To finally tell you how I feel."

Edward smiled, deep down always having a similar feeling for Byron but never accepting it until now. "Hey, you're supposed to be asleep... Naughty 'coon. Don't ever scare me like that again, huh?" He said, resting his head on Byron's shoulder, kissing the 'coon's neck.

"I won't love... But even if something happens, you'll be there to save me." Byron smiled and hugged the fox with his tail. "Let's get some sleep though... It's already late and we have more hiking to do in the morning."

Edward laughed and kissed Byron again, "Even after facing near death, you still want to continue our trip? I guess that's why I've been your friend for so long; nothing phases you."

They both laughed and kissed each other, still tied together in a bond of love and fell asleep with dreams of the next day's adventure before them.

The End
