Unrequited-Prologue
#1 of Unrequited
Ok, due to the fact that I'm on writer's block with a few other stories with Krystal in them, I decided to be a dramafag at the moment and write a new set of stories. Basically a short pilot for a somewhat book-like story I have, and it's been on my idea list for a while (though in a furry format; the original idea was to be two people, but I like using furs for this). Comments are not only welcome, but needed, but most importantly, criticism if any.
Prologue
Is being a lesbian a choice? Hannah wished it was so she wouldn't be condemned to fall in love with someone she knows she'll never have. Hannah was a 12-year-old, beige mongoose at the moment. She was at the park on a seesaw with her best friend; a red and white gerbil named Maria. Maria was a very popular girl, often having a large number of friends, but Hannah was what she felt was her best of any of them. They both met at the same park they were in right now when they were seven; Hannah was just sitting on the same seesaw, bored since everything else was taken. Maria left the playground to play with Hannah and they connected instantly. Those 30 minutes were the first time she ever had fun with a friend, but her mother interrupted her after striking a drug deal with one of the parents at the park. Hannah found Maria at school finding out she was in a different class, and they've been best friends ever since.
"Kids; it's time to get going!" Maria's mom yelled from the distance, getting back from work. Maria held her end of the seesaw down that they were playing on as she slowly lowered Hannah down. They both ran up to her car and they drove away.
At a trailer park, Hannah was about to approach her house, but when she was close enough, she could hear moaning and grunting. Oh no. Mom must be with a man tonight, Hannah thought to herself. Fortunately, Maria's mom didn't drive off yet. They were used to it by now that she would check on her house first before Hannah gave them the thumbs up to leave...in the rare but known case of seeing her passed out in front of the house. She walked back to the car and was let in.
"I see. I'll take you home with us to stay the night, Hannah," Maria's mom told her. Maria held onto Hannah's hand to comfort her. She didn't respond much, only looking blankly out of the window, trying to repress her 27-year-old mother having sex for whatever reason, probably either for money or for venting out her frustration to "raise" her.
They arrived at a large house. A very LARGE house. Not a mansion, though, but she knew their family must be very wealthy. They had to be to live next to a CEO of a large brewing company, probably the same kind of alcohol Hannah's mother was drunk off of right now. Maria's dad greeted them as they came inside.
"Again?" he asked in a sigh. "This is the fourth time in a row this week." Hannah could hear the disappointment of her own mother by his voice. He cared for her like a father she didn't know she had, understanding that neither she nor her mother knew her father. However, he was a very prejudice man, specifically showing great frustration with the gay community, with Maria's mother sharing similar views. It encouraged Hannah to never reveal her sexuality to anyone, not even Maria, and especially Maria since her friendship with her grew into love on her part.
"Ok, kids. It's time for bed," Maria's mother told them. "Brush your teeth, take a shower, and get into bed." Hannah was able to do these things with the help of Maria's parents; she had her own toothbrush and Maria had so many clothes that she gave her a drawer full of them. They were noticeably smaller for her since Hannah was much taller, but they fit well enough for Hannah to manage. As they both were done preparing for bedtime, they both agreed to share the bed, though Maria always assured Hannah she didn't need her permission.
They both rested with each other close, Hannah holding onto Maria tightly. Maria was ok with her; she understood how scared and lonely Hannah felt. She stroked her long, black hair to ease her crying, feeling her shirt getting wet. Despite scared and lonely, Hannah also felt good knowing she was this close to Maria, though this was probably the closest she could get to her.
"Mari?" Hannah requested from Maria, which is how she shortened her name sometimes.
"Yes Hannah?" Maria responded.
"Thank you for letting me stay over again," she told her.
Maria then put her arms around her. "That's ok, Hannah. I like it when you stay over anyway." She could still hear Hannah sniffling, but at least she wasn't so distraught.
It was a while until Maria finally fell asleep. Hannah had a hard time sleeping at the moment, partially because of what she kept thinking when it came to her mother, and partially because she waited for Maria to go to sleep for her one opportunity. In the past three nights, she fell asleep before Maria did, and now she thought she could work up the courage to try something. She looked up at Maria, who was in deep sleep. "Mari?" she whispered, seeing if she was awake. "Mari?" even louder. She shook her a bit, but Maria was dead asleep. With the opportunity at hand, she moved her muzzle closer to hers, opened it with her tongue, and passionately kissed her. Hannah was done, and luckily, Maria didn't wake at all during that. If her parents were homophobic, she could only imagine how she would react if she found out Hannah was a lesbian. At least she had her first kiss, with the one she loved the most.
