#35 of Scrapped Content

?So after having this for like, three or so years, I have decided it was time to say 'done'. There are a few reasons why this story was not finished, main one I see is that the species I picked for the main cast are just not ones I enjoy overly much. Rarely do I like canines or felines. Deer is alright, but still, circumstantial when I'll like.

So yea, longer pieces are terrible for me but I can't grow with same short stories. Guess I'm stuck as a writer. Go figure, it's just like my life.

Suggest tags if wanted, haven't read this thing in a good while.?


Title

Sunlight pierced the artificial light of the locker room as the outside doors boomed opened. A great collage of voices filled the previously silent room, as many of the baseball players returned from their practice. Varying males of many different species were stripping off their gear, starting with the gloves and hats, the easiest to carry and remove. Daniel was one such guy, making his way over to the supply closet to help his coach put away the training equipment. Most of the others were too preoccupied believing they were the best thing in the world to help the older ram bring in the devices used weekly. A small thanks was issued before the coach headed into his office, leaving Daniel to undress and clean up. Most of the guys were already naked and heading for the showers by the time Dan got to his locker.

A small mirror was in door, allowing Daniel to see himself, usually after showers or something to make himself look half way decent. He was a jackal, black fur plastered over most of his body. Acute blue eyes gazed over his silver hair, knowing that it also came out in other places on his body. A cough as he flushed a little at the thought, the jackal removed most of his clothing and stuffed it into the locker, closing it after grabbing fresh boxers. Grabbing a large towel, the muscular canine moved towards the showers and entered one of the few private shower stalls in the front section. They were installed after a few complaints by some of the teens about wanting to have privacy for their nudity. Dan wasn't aware of the full story, but as long as he could shower by himself, he was fine.

It wasn't that he was ashamed of his body, he was ripped from sports and from self-training. No, he was worried about the fact he was bisexual and some of his teammates were pretty hot. It wouldn't be good to pop a boner with them around, so he tended to keep to himself in the smaller shower. Removing his jockstrap, the jackal set all of the cloth to the side and started up the shower, keeping it luke warm to clean but cool off. He felt over himself, lightly digging some dirt and grime from his fur and hair, grazing his nipples, the muscles under his skin rippling as he scrubbed himself lightly all over. Black fingers ran over the pubic hair about his groin, running over his flaccid dick. He was about average down there, maybe pushing the border, though he had been told by the guys and girls that had blown him that it wasn't as thick or long as others. All in all, Daniel was happy with how he looked.

Turning off the water, the jackal grabbed the towel and gave himself a quick drying session before pulling on his boxers. Sure, it wasn't a long shower, but it made him feel better after practices. Stepping out of the shower, he noticed the showers still going. Even with being one of the last in, some took ages to finish it always seemed. Shaking his head, the canine headed back to his locker, bypassing fellow players as he once more opened the door to grab his clean clothes from a shelf above the baseball uniform. After dressing in rugged jeans and a tight gray t-shirt, Dan pulled out a duffel bag and proceeded to place his much in need of washing uniform into it, zipping it up and throwing it over his shoulder. The doors to the school's interior were repeatedly being pushed opened, a dreadful screech like noise indicating the hinges' need for oiling. The jackal himself caused the noise to issue forth once more as he sighed in the glow of tube bulbs found in most common schools. Unlike most of the other players from the team and whatever other sports who took a left, he himself took a right to head towards a less popular area to get to his vehicle. It had taken a while to get, but Daniel was ever glad he could now get his car to this side of the building.

It wasn't that it was easier to get to, it was because his crush was always at the tutoring center based in the library. Every time the canine had practice, he would always be able to see the smaller guy he desired for a relationship. Even as he thought of this, Daniel turned the corner and saw Thomas coming down the hallway. Thomas was a deer, with deep gray color except for the creamy white that went from his throat down into his shirt. Small antlers poked through the teen's tingled blue silver hair and perched on the little muzzle was a set of spectacles. The smaller male's form was always hidden away inside of his shirts and jeans, never going around with less than full coverage it seemed. It made it hard to tell much about the deer, something that always irked the jackal as he so desperately wanted to see the entire buck in the buff. Letting out a small sigh to himself, he passed by Thomas, wishing with all his might that one day he could ask the deer out.

Another corner was turned, breath shallow and heart beating fast as he acted normal to his crush. Damn it, he mused to himself, before seeing his long time friend that he had first come out to. Antonio was his name, a pitch black panther that always seemed to attract women to him. Blunt and honest, the feline wouldn't dream of breaking a female with his one night stand or friend with benefits behavior. It wasn't a popular thing but the panther had his own ideas of how to handle being with someone. It didn't help that the guy needed to be tutored, something Daniel would always be grateful for and he told Antonio that all the time. Sometimes the canine wondered if the feline intentionally stayed with the program just so the jackal could remain in that parking lot.

"Hey Dan, what's up?"

"Hey Nio."

A smirk played on the panther's face as he turned around to walk beside the jackal. "So, you see him again?"

A flush came up to Dan's face. "O-of course." A cough before rubbing the back of his neck "S-so, how's the whole tutoring thing going?"

"Great dude, some of the tutoring chicks are smoking. Doubt I'll get any in a bed though, they seem too shy and innocent."

A chuckle came from the canine. "Such the gentleman. Only fuck those that have fucked before."

"What can I say? Rather not have bad rumors. Sides, we both know most can't resist what I'm packing."

Another cough with an even fiercer blush. "N-Nio! I thought we wouldn't say stuff like that."

A wide, almost feral grin appeared on the feline's face. "We both know you drooled over it that time when you stayed over and got a nice view of my wood."

"It was just an accident! How was I suppose to know that you sleep naked? Or that you don't like wrapping a towel around your waist after a shower?"

A round of laughter came from the feline as the two exited the building. They approached the jackal's jeep, piling into it as the canine expertly started away from the school to take his friend to his house. The silence was a bit awkward before a small chuckle from the feline brought Dan's attention over to his friend.

"You know, if you ever asked nice enough, I may be willing to consider letting you suck my dick."

Daniel jerked the steering wheel, face redder than black as he swerved on the road. Adjusting the vehicle back, the jackal looked at the panther out of the corner of his eyes. "Jesus Nio! Don't say stuff like that!"

Antonio's smirk stayed in place, humming to himself as the jackal tried to not let his friend get under his skin. It still bothered him that the feline would joke about such things and sighed to himself as he slowly pulled into his driveway. Locking the jeep after exiting, Dan invited the panther into his home as per usual. The inside was nice enough, a small living area to the right as you entered, a dining room attached to a kitchen on the other side. A small hallway to get from the front of the house to the back with a bedroom adjacent to the living room. The master bedroom had a small en-suite, something Daniel was familiar with as his mother didn't mind him bathing in the tub from time to time.

The other side of the hallway was a stairway at the back, leading into the basement. It was fully finished, with washer and drier in the corner right off the stairs. There was an area for storage, a decent size but not taking too much room. The wall extended a bit to make an alcove in the back where the jackal had his room set up. He had his own small bathroom with a shower, a nice touch for whoever built this place. Not only that, but they had thought of people living down here too, leaving room for television and game systems and the like. Though the canine did leave a small area for his weights. Turning on the game system and grabbing a remote, Daniel jumped onto his bed and lazed back, his friend doing the same.

The two continued for a little bit before calling it quits to get something to eat. Daniel wasn't the best chef around, but he did know how to cook. He made a small meal out of chicken and rice, putting the extra set in the fridge for him mother. She wasn't around so much during the week, but that was ok with the jackal. He understood the lengths she had gone through to give them a decent place and food and all that. The house got a bit lonely at times when he was alone, but the jackal always got to see his mom over the weekends, her days off. During the week, he had his friend over usually. The two chatted lightly about the school work they'd need to do afterwards, packs forgotten by the door until dinner time. Finishing up, the canine hand washed the dishes before leaving them to dry and starting on his homework along with the panther. They had a couple of classes together, though not all the same.

It seemed night came on all too soon. Antonio bid Daniel a fond goodbye before setting out down the street to his house. It was common for one to be with the other until night time came, if they even parted then. The jackal was just happy the panther's family was willing to let him do things like that. Regardless, locking the house up and turning off the lights upstairs, Dan went down to his private area of the house and started grabbing his shower things. Sure the one earlier was nice and all, but it wasn't cleaning so much as rinsing. Stripping once more, the jackal took his time in the shower, scrubbing himself with soap and shampoo as he enjoyed the time. As he lightly rinsed himself off, his mind wondered to his friend, a flush coating his face. He would never admit to it, but Daniel sometimes got off to the image of his best friend naked and hard.

It wasn't long before that image aroused him. With a defeated sigh, the jackal gave in easily to his young desires, wrapping his digits around his length and pumping himself. His free hand rubbed over his chest and nipples, pinching one as he imagined it was his friend doing this to him. The hand traveled down his body, over his hip to grab his ass. It brought a whine to the canine's throat, a gasp as he felt the fingers between his cheeks. A finger was inserted roughly, pumping into his slightly loosened tailhole, having played with a toy before. It wasn't long before the canine's mind shifting to him laying on his back, legs in the air as Antonio's throbbing dick was pushing against his pucker, ready to pop his cherry. Three fingers were shoved into his ass to simulate the panther deflowering the jackal, a stinging in the rim from the lack of preparation. Regardless of the slight pain, Daniel's eyes snapped open as he clenched down on his fingers, cock jerking as rope after rope of jackal seed pumped out of his balls and into the spraying water.

Dan's breath was ragged as he slowly came down from his high. His face burned in lust and shame as he removed the fingers from his ass, starting to clean himself of the mess he had made. Turning the water off, the jackal grabbed the towel nearby and dried himself in the tiled enclosure. Stepping out, the canine pulled up the boxers he had on and left the towel to dry over a rack. It was late now and he needed to get to sleep. Turning off the lights to his bedroom once he got out of the bathroom, he pulled back his covers and laid in the bed. He turned his thoughts inward, feeling awkward about the time in the shower.

It wasn't new to him to think of his best friend Antonio in such a sexual way. He had had quite a few fantasies about the feline, even admitting it to the cat once after seeing him naked. It always happened when the panther would talk about sex with him, but it was something he knew wouldn't happen. It was nothing more than sex. If he could just catch a glimpse of Thomas in less clothing, Dan could paint a picture and get off to him more. It feels more like a lasting thing anyways, when the canine day dreamed of the deer. It left him a bit lost on what he really wanted. With a sigh, the jackal turned onto his side, pulled the covers up to his shoulders and attempted to get some sleep for the night.

The alarm on his phone went off where it was plugged into the wall near his bed. With a tired groan, the jackal reached out and turned it off, sitting up and rubbing his eyes. He headed for the bathroom to relieve himself and get his day started. Starting with going to his rack for hanging up his shirts, he pulled one off and tugged it on, a moderate shirt of dark blue. Jeans came next, lighter blue than his shirt as he tugged his skinny tail through the hole. Shoes on, he made his way upstairs, stretching and yawning the sleep away. The kitchen was good, with a used plate on the counter from last night. Seems his mom had gotten to eat.

With a small grin, Dan opened the fridge and pulled out the milk, making himself a bowl of cereal as he enjoyed the early morning routine. He was always happy to know even with the hours his mother worked, she still was able to eat. Regardless, it was always late nights for her and it saddened him a bit. With a sigh, he finished his breakfast and got his bag ready for the day. Keys, wallet, bag, he was ready for his day. Locking the house on his way out, Daniel started up his car and proceeded to his friend's house. Antonio was outside on the porch, waiting for the jackal as he pulled up. The panther got into the vehicle and the two sat in silence as they drove to the school parking lot.

"Ready for that test this morning?"

"Huh? Oh, yea, totally." The jackal was flushed at this point, for two reasons. One for the night before, another for something ahead.

A chuckle rose from the feline. "Forgot, didn't you?"

A sigh. "Yea."

"No worries dude. We are totally going to pass. We did the work and studied last night."

"..."

"Fuck, dude, you forgot to study the material, didn't you?!"

"I had a lot on my mind last night."

"I bet it was your Thomas keeping you up."

Dan's flush grew brighter. "S-shut up." It wasn't, but it had happened enough that it still embarrassed him. It wasn't like he could tell Antonio he had gotten off to him. It was already a bit weird between them with how much the panther joked about the jackal practicing with him. A sigh came from the feline.

"Even without studying, we did the guide last night. You should be good."

"Yea..."

Pulling into the parking lot of the school, the two proceeded to get out and head for the building, using the not so popular lot. It had become habit at this point to be there. The homeroom was something they shared, where the test would take place. The female ocelot stood by the door, waiting for the students to head in and take a seat. The first half of the day would be this test, the second half would be either free time or working on other class work. Daniel was nervous as he took the seat next to his friend, worried about flunking. He didn't plan on it but being average had its drawbacks at times.

The loud ringing of the bell signaled the teacher to come in and talk about how the test would determine a lot about their school knowledge. Most other schools probably spaced them out and did them in different classes, but here it was all one teacher with periodic breaks. As it stood, math was first up as Dan was handed a test packet, something he was decent enough at. Pencil ready, the clock started as soon as the ocelot said to begin.

Pencils scratched, erasers flew across papers, sheets ruffling as people turned to the next page or went back over their work. Bit by bit the day went on, taking small breaks between each test section. Finally the bell rang for lunch, signaling the end of the testing. It made the jackal jerk out of his mind, staring at the last page of his sheet, only half finished. Flipping to the front and moving to turn it in, a sinking feeling started to form in the pit of his stomach. The last test was english, something he wasn't proficient in. As he stood in the line to grab his meager meal of food, the canine couldn't help but worry. As he sat at his usual spot in the lunch room, a suave panther slid into the spot next to him.

"So how'd the test go?"

"Well enough. English though..." A sigh came from Daniel. "I don't know Nio. I'm pretty sure that'll drag my score down and I need to keep it up."

"Ever thought of getting a tutor?" A smirk was on the feline's face as he leaned in close and whispered into the jackal's ear. "I hear Thomas's last guy finished his last session. If you hurry, maybe you'll get him as a tutor."

Dan felt faint at that point. If what Antonio said was true, he could finally have a reason to talk to the deer! Oh, how he wanted that so badly. Shifting a bit as he flushed, the canine went back to eating, joking around with his friend. When the bell rang, most of the students called it the half day that it was, heading home for the weekend. For Daniel and Antonio though, it wasn't the end of the day. Heading down the halls, they came upon the library, the place all tutoring seemed to happen. The jackal's heart pounded in his chest and ears. This was his big chance and he was hesitating at the threshold.

Antonio huffed beside him and started to push the canine into the library. Stumbling a bit, he was practically shoved through the doors. The double doors swung open in front of him as he caught himself, gaze moving to the large one story room with shelves upon shelves aligned in a row. There were tables set up in front and throughout in small pockets, though the back was where tutoring was. With a sigh, Daniel went up to the librarian, a hunched over old lemur lady with glasses on. A small smile graced the jackal's lips as he signed up for tutoring, listing he'd like Thomas for his tutor. There was no guarantee he'd get the deer, but this was the best chance he had!

With a huff, the librarian took the paper and went back into the shelving to find the canine's crush. Antonio stood next to Daniel, lightly whispering words of encouragement and comfort. The jackal definitely needed his panther friend to help him through this. With a shuddering breath, he saw the lemur come back and beckon him. The two followed her towards the back of the library. Sitting at different tables, there were males and females from otters to bulls to lions and more. Sitting to himself, tapping a pencil, was Thomas, looking over a book he had open in front of him. The librarian directing Daniel to the deer's table, the jackal swallowed the lump in his throat and moved over to the table with his crush at it. Sitting down opposite of the deer, Dan was about to speak when Thomas spoke up first.

"I'm Thomas, you were looking for an English tutor, correct?"

Daniel could only nod, flushed a bit. The deer sighed a bit, rubbing his snout.

"I know for jock types like you, this is hard. Understand, I will do what I can until you storm off." Thomas looked over Dan before his eyes narrowed a bit. "You pass by after baseball practice days. You have a friend here?"

"Y-yea. Antonio comes here."

"Ah, him. He's a real case-work." The deer had been shuffling through papers and books before he pulled out what he needed. "Wants to try to get into some people's pants here, though he is courteous. Just his personality due to need."

"Antonio is usually like that, regardless." The jackal felt he needed to defend his panther friend.

A sigh and shaking of his head, the deer looked at Daniel and adjusted his glasses. "Enough of this topic, you came here to learn to do better at something. Let's begin."

It had been only a week and already Daniel had learned much from Thomas. That first session before the weekend had went long, the jackal slowly feeling a bit more natural around the deer. Before they had left, they had discussed days that would work. Friday and Tuesday were the days to meet. Dan was ecstatic that he would be getting together with Thomas, even if it was just as tutor and tutee. He chuckled lightly at his own words, shaking his head as he came back to the class. He still had to get through this tedious lesson before he got to see the young buck. Pencil scratched the surface of his paper as he started to take notes once more, his day dream broken.

The bell couldn't ring soon enough. Collecting his books, Dan packed his bag with them and joined the throng of people rushing to leave. While many left for home, he headed for the library. Already he could feel his heart racing at the thought of spending time with his crush. Though, as he turned a corner leading to a less traveled hallway, he saw that Thomas was surrounded by many jocks of some sort. Wary, Daniel approached quietly to listen in.

"I told you I'm not going to do it." That was the deer.

"And we told you what would happen if you didn't." The jackal tensed at those words. Or rather, that voice. It was the number one player on the baseball team, Colin, an otter. He saw as Thomas was pushed against the locker, dropping the books he had been holding. A snarl coming from him, he rushed forward and bodily shoved the others aside to stand in front of the dazed buck. A stare down with a surprised Colin was followed by narrowed eyes.

"Daniel. Get out of the fucking way."

"Fuck you Colin. Leave him alone."

"Why protect him? He's a fucking wimp." A sneer crossed Colin's muzzle. "Or are you a faggot, defending his boyfriend?"

Snarling, Dan spoke through his teeth. "Better than a bully and a cheat."

The jackal was expecting the punch. He didn't expect it to hit so hard. He fell back against Thomas, his cheek stinging heavily. A yell from somewhere sounded before the crowd ran off, pursued by someone. Another person came up to him, helping him and looking over his face, wincing as they pressed their fingers to the recent sting. Shaking his head, Daniel felt the daze wear off some to see that he and Thomas were being lead towards the nurse's office. It was a middle aged ram, the kindly man looking them over. While the deer was being checked, a teacher started to ask about the incident. Since Thomas responded first, how it was nothing, just a simple disagreement, Dan felt inclined to respond the same. They were let out without much more than a word of warning that next time there would be phone calls and what not. The jackal didn't really care.

The two walked down the empty halls, neither speaking up. Eventually, Thomas stopped at his locker again while Dan waited. The deer spoke up then. "Why?"

The jackal shook his head. "Huh?"

"Why did you get involved?" The voice was sparked with anger. A little confused, Daniel spoke up.

"Because Colin was being a dick and picking on you?"

The locker slammed shut as Thomas whirled about, anger in his eyes behind the glasses. Dan felt the urge to step back it was that intense. "Why the fuck do you care?!"

Taken aback even more, the jackal sputtered. "B-because w-we're friends?"

"How the hell are we friends?!"

Daniel felt flushed as he scratched the back of his head, face down. "I only got a tutor because I wanted to be your friend."

The awkward silence following made Daniel raise his head. There was a stunned expression on the deer's face. "What?"

"You're smart Thomas. Why would you want to hang out with an average guy like me? Just happens Nio kept an eye on you for me. It was a good excuse to approach you." It felt weird admitting it all, though he still wasn't in a good spot to admit his feelings. The stinging in his cheek did make it hard to speak that much though.

"I..." Thomas's voice dropped low, his eyes seeming to tear up some. "I don't know what to say."

"Will you be my friend Thomas?"

The deer just nods before surprising the jackal with a hug. Daniel just wraps his arms around the deer before grinning lightly. "Why don't we skip today's session and I take you home or something?"

"O-ok." Thomas wiped at his eyes after taking off his spectacles. He replaced them with a small smile before Dan lead the way out of the school. This was going well, he thought to himself.

Two weeks zoomed by for the jackal as he spent time with Thomas. The day they had become friends he hadn't learned about where the deer lived but they had stopped by the public library. It was truly astonishing how many books there were in the average town. They had a common interest in fantasy, though Daniel's was more specific towards the knights. Between the libraries, they spent a good amount of time getting to know the other, like Dan knew Thomas's favorite color was yellow and that the deer's birthday was coming up relatively soon. They even had a date for the weekend! Well, to the jackal it felt like one, even if it was just him looking in on a dungeons and dragons game.

He did notice he was spending less time with Antonio and Dan felt horrible about that. So he had asked to make it up. Nio was cooler than Daniel thought he'd be. The panther understood the whole "matters of the heart" spiel, though he suggested a night of gaming and work to try and catch up. The jackal was pleased to have his best friend coming over. He still needed to bring the deer around to Antonio though, Thomas was a bit harsh on the panther. As soon as the final bell rang for the day, Dan piled his materials into his bag and practically ran from the room. He met Antonio near his locker before the two headed for the jackal's car, passing Thomas once and saying hello. The deer was friendly enough as he made his way opposite the duo.

At the Jeep, the two got in and the conversation began. It started with school and life in general, catching up on what was new with each other. Daniel spoke glowingly about Thomas, which got him many remarks from the panther that made him flustered. Nio had been on a couple of dates and had some late night trysts with some of his regulars. Seemed the usual to Dan. Though the last couple days had not been as kind to the panther. He had struck out and decided to cool off a little from that one. Pulling into the driveway of his house, Daniel got out, picking up his bag as Antonio followed suit. Car doors slammed shut as the pair went to the door, unlocking it and proceeding inside.

"So how's the sports scene man?"

A sigh from the jackal before he spoke. "Rough. Ever since Colin's bat with Thomas, tension is high. All that otter wants to do is fight now, looking for any excuse."

"Damn man, sorry to hear."

The two went downstairs to his room, throwing their bags on the floor. "It's whatever. The strain on the team is real though. Without some of their best, they are seriously lacking."

The panther just shrugged. "Well, you know how teenagers are. Hot headed and egos the size of watermelons."

"Probably bigger."

That got a chuckle from both. The two dug into their bags and pulled out their homework, stressing over it as much as the last time they had done this. It felt like ages to Dan and he felt a bit guilty. He had obsessed so much over Thomas he had left his best friend to the side. Even if Antonio didn't say, it probably bothered him a tiny bit. The jackal planned to change that. Yes, he liked the deer but the panther had been his friend for ages and beyond.

Which made fantasizing about the black cat somewhat strange to Daniel. Who wouldn't feel strange thinking of their best friend sexually, after all. Yet he was an attractive male, there was no doubt. He snuck a peek at the feline, eyeing him over before returning to his work. There was no way they would work out anyways, even with the dumb joke of blow jobs aside. It wasn't much longer into their work that the panther threw his pencil down and let out a large sigh.

"It's fucking hot as balls down here." Daniel wasn't inclined to agree, but he wouldn't complain once Antonio had pulled off his shirt, showing his muscular torso. A quick once over on his friend's body before he went back to work, feeling himself start to feel hot for a different reason entirely. Another few minutes of work before the panther spoke up again.

"So, asked Thomas out yet?"

A sigh blew through Dan's nose. "No."

"Why not?"

"It would be best if I waited to know if we were compatible, is all."

The feline rolled his eyes. "Whatever. Though now I wonder if you've had any sex."

That got the jackal to blush. "Er, just blow jobs..."

A devious smirk played at Antonio's lips. "Oh really? Give any yourself?"

The blush deepened. "N-no."

The panther just stared at Dan for a while, his lips in a smirk as he gazed at him. Daniel started to fidget under the intense look before Antonio stood. "I'm going to the bathroom."

The jackal let out a breath of relief as his friend fled the room. Damn him for bringing that up, it was embarrassing. His pencil scratched along the page, the time ticking by as he waited for Nio to return to the room. It was a few minutes, in which Daniel considered banging on the door for his friend, before the panther stepped out of the bathroom. When his blue gaze glanced up at the panther, his jaw dropped and eyes bugged. Antonio was standing in the doorway completely naked. The feline had a smirk on his muzzle.

"Well? You should get comfy too."

The canine turned away, biting his lip as he could feel blood rush to his face and groin. "N-Nio! What the hell?!"

"You're going to suck my dick."

"Like hell I am!"

Dan could hear the soft padding of his friend grow closer, ear flicking at the voice. "Don't you want to be prepared for Thomas?"

That got the jackal's attention. Turning back to the nude panther, Daniel's flush was evident as he focused on the other's face. "What are you talking about?"

The smug grin made Dan want to slap Antonio. "Come on, first time sucking dick is hard and few are naturals. Besides, we both know you want to. Have since that one day."

Daniel couldn't deny it. He shifted uncomfortably, his face flushed as he murmured back. "Things would...change..."

A hand was laid on his shoulder as Nio moved the last bit between them. "Nah, dude, it'll be like sucking a dildo. Only warm, shoots cum and have someone to help you actually learn."

"...we'll need a towel."

"Thata boy. Come on, get undressed and I'll grab the towel."

"U-undressed?!"

"You'll probably jack off to it, might as well be comfy." The panther made a face. "Just don't expect anything other than training on a dick and my balls though."

Even in this bizarre situation, the jackal couldn't help but chuckle lightly. "Wouldn't dream of it, 'ladies' man."

"Screw you too." Antonio turned back towards the bathroom. Dan couldn't help but stare at the firm ass the panther had under that swaying tail. Nio had a point as he took off his shirt, unbuckling his jeans and pulling everything off. He was already half hard from just the sight alone. Hell, he had figured his friend would prefer him dressed while doing this.

The panther returned in no time, spreading out two towel, one dangling over the side of the bed and one laid out underneath. At least Antonio was considerate. Dan fidgeted nervously, way too hot even in the heat of the house. Nio rolled his eyes and sat on the bed, spreading his legs to show off his goods. The jackal swallowed, eyes roaming over the coarse black fur and onyx nipples down to the dense patch around the dick's base and the ebony shaft itself. Biting his lip, he moved forward and knelt down in front of his friend, his heart racing and chest heaving already.

"You'll need to get me hard. It's...not easy with a guy."

"How?"

"Just play around a bit."

Swallowing a lump, Daniel reached out with shaking hands to stroke over the insides of the panther's thighs. The fur was soft, smooth even as he drug his fingers up through it. He heard a sigh above him and kept up his direction, slowly coming to the end goal. Trembling he moved a hand to the dick, grasping it a bit tightly and getting a hiss.

"Not so tight!"

Relaxing his grip, Dan looked up at Antonio. He looked back down and lightly stroked over the shaft, like he had done to himself many times to get started on a session. A purr emitted from the feline, a strange noise to the jackal but at least it was a way to tell the panther was starting to enjoy. Sure enough, the black shaft twitched and slowly started to rise. Using his finger tips, Daniel ghosted them along the shaft, making Nio gasp lightly, ever becoming more aroused. It wasn't long before the ministrations had his friend fully erect, lightly throbbing in the hot air.

"Fuck dude, you're not half bad."

The constant flush on his face got even deeper as Dan looked up at Antonio. "So, uh, w-what now?"

The panther rolled his eyes. "You start sucking. I assume you've done this with one of your toys?"

The jackal just nodded, flushed as he once again swallowed the lump in his throat. Pressing his lips against the head, he stopped thinking and opened his muzzle. Daniel slid the head in, closing his maw around it and sucking lightly. He felt the trembling in the feline above him as he placed a hand on the inner thigh, the other holding the base of the dick. His tongue lashed on the cumslit and played around the edge of the head. The reward was a drop of pre which he pulled onto his tongue. It was sweeter than his own, which he did enjoy getting a muzzle full of now and then. Took a while to get used to it though.

Banishing his thoughts, Dan focused on his task, slowly taking in more of Antonio's dick. Nio's hands found themselves running through the jackal's hair, not that Daniel minded too much. At about halfway, Dan paused and decided this was enough for now. Pulling off the shaft, he sucked on it all the way to the head. He breathed through his nose as he pushed back down, using the hand to lightly jerk the bottom of the length to keep Antonio pleased. If the wiggling fingers that clenched sporadically was an indication, the panther was enjoying it. It was something else, having a real dick in his muzzle compared to a sex toy. Daniel kept trying to take a little more with every bob of his head, keeping it slow and relaxed and swallowing the drops of pre that coated his tongue.

"F-fuck dude, yo-you're good at this!"

Nio was obviously enjoying this. The jackal felt a little pride about that, though he'd be lying if he said he didn't want more right now. The hand on the panther's thigh drifted from there down between Dan's own legs, grabbing at his need. The wild throbbing he felt from clenching his hand around the dick sent a shudder up his spine. He'd need to be careful not to blow too soon. All the while, he slowly descended further and further onto Antionio's length. Soon enough, he had to move his hand away to sink any further and it was near the base that he hit his gag reflex.

While he had some practice and control over this, he admittedly was still a novice. He pulled back once he gagged on the dick, slurping off as he coughed lightly. Daniel stared at the pulsing black rod, now slightly shiny from his saliva. Once again, he felt like he wanted even more. His blush was now not only from the act they were doing, but the feeling of want under his tail. Fuck, how he wished he had grabbed a toy, to at least ease the desire. Instead, the jackal dove back onto the cock, suckling and slurping to his best ability as he stroked himself off. If the lashing tail, spurting cock and twitching fingers weren't enough to tell Dan how much Nio was into this, then the repeated utterances of pleasure were.

"Ngh, fuck, g-getting close!"

It was a strange feeling of time to hear that. On one hand, it felt like forever since they started and on the other, they had just started. Daniel must have gotten lost in blowing his best friend, having long ago gotten to take all of his length into his muzzle to prod at his throat. His hand had moved to the balls, tugging and rolling them as he jerked himself off. He kept his own masturbation slow to keep himself at bay but he was on edge himself from this. Who was he kidding, he had been on edge since the start, ready to explode at any moment. He kept at bay long enough to get to this point, leaking pre over his fingers and using it to lube his hand enough to properly stroke his meat from pubes to tip. The itch under his tail had grown immensely, something he vaguely processed as needing to relieve later. For now, he focused on swallowing the thicker pre that had kept coming during the whole venture. Antonio tensed up, his hands shoving the jackal's face all the way to the base. The panther let out a deafening roar as he came.

Between the sudden hilting and the first rope of seed to hit his throat, Dan somewhat felt justified in gagging. Cum leaked from his muzzle as his eyes teared up before he started to swallow. He could feel the salty sweet slimy liquid run down his gullet, settling in his stomach. It was slightly strange to have another's cum in his mouth and belly but he enjoyed it immensely. As Nio started to taper off, his arms relaxed enough for Daniel to pull back and let the rest empty into his muzzle. As he slurped off his friend's dick, his hand sped up on his own shaft. The jackal hadn't finished yet and needed to badly. It wasn't more than a few pumps before he himself let out a small cry, his dick trembling as he shot his ropes of cum all over the towel set up earlier. His tongue lolled as his eyes closed, feeling the tension draining from his body as he released his seed. It was wonderful, to say the least.

The two panted hard, Daniel falling back to sit on his feet as Antonio flopped back onto the bed. Exhausted, the jackal rose to shaking feet. He noticed right away the cum and spittle still on the feline's member. Feeling a little guilty about that, he picked up one of the towels and lightly cleaned his friend. The groan and light bouncing showed the pleasure and pain from helping.

"Fuck, dude, that was intense."

Pitching the towel, Dan couldn't help but flop next to his best friend. "Y-yea."

"So, how was it?" The voice was quieter, hoarse and punctured by heaving gulps of air.

"Incredible."

A chuckle. "Good."

"Can we do this again sometime?"

"Now and then, to help you practice."

Daniel just grinned as he sighed. Admittedly, he wanted more still, but knew Antonio wouldn't provide. They were done with working and sex now, so when the panther left, the jackal would take care of his issue. For now, they both just talked a little about games and joking about hot topics thrown about in school. Dan felt strange yet happy to have this new development in his life.

The jackal laid on his back, gazing up at his ceiling as he laid there naked. So much was happening in his life, it felt like. He was seeing the guy he was in love with (even if they weren't together), having sex with his best friend (Weird but nice, he had been learning over the past two weeks about sucking dick), his mother taking a bit more interest in his life since she was working a little less (only a little) and the baseball team was fracturing hard (Colin's massive ego). All in all, Daniel wasn't sure where life was heading. Sometimes he just liked to think about everything that was going on like this. Usually until something interrupts him.

Like the buzzing of his cellphone. With a sigh, Dan turned over and opened it, seeing Antonio had sent him a message. "You ask him out yet?"

"Of course not."

"Dude, if you don't act soon, someone else is going to get him!"

The jackal blew out another breath as he adjusted his bangs. "Hardly, you know what he's like."

"That I do. Still can't believe you convinced him to give me a chance."

Daniel smiled at that. It took a little bit but the canine had managed to get the deer to see things from a slightly different perspective. Things were going smoothly, at least to Dan it seemed, after their little date of D&D. They did small things like get slushies and work at Daniel's house. They stayed in the kitchen though, the jackal didn't want Thomas in his room yet. It was silly and dumb but Dan wanted the first time the two of them were together down there to be as boyfriends. Their study sessions turned to a group as the panther 'crashed' a few times for some assistance. Turned out the two did start talking a little, if only about school. Regardless, the canine was certain he'd won a small battle there.

The phone buzzed again. "Come on, just ask him out already! If you don't, I will ask for you."

There it was. The death threat. Dan sighed again. "Ok, fine."

"Tell me all about it!"

The jackal flopped onto his belly as he looked at his phone, moving to Thomas's name and number and opening the text log there. Daniel felt his heart race as his shaking fingers fumbled with trying to type out his message. It was simple, asking if the deer wanted to go out. Finger hovering over the send button, Dan closed his eyes and swallowed the lump in his throat and jabbed forward. He waited before he opened his eyes, hoping that he had missed with his shaking hand. To his dismay, the text had been sent. Thinking he could maybe delete it before Thomas saw it, he was interrupted in trying to delete the message by the deer replying. "Go out?"
