#7 of A Lion's Tail and a Bear's Hug


Sorry its been so long. I predict an upcoming spell of increased work at my school (well for me at least) so in the near distant future my uploads will slow down even further. However by skipping lunch these past few days I've been able to get my homewirk out o the way so here's one chapter. And I've already started on the next chapter as well so that should be coming out soon (probs today tommorow, or maybe the day after) anyway, criticisms and comments are more than welcome ^.^

A Lion's tail and a bear's hug: chapter 7

Home, not-so-sweet home

Lejon awoke to find his groin was warm, wet and sticky, and that there was something moist prodding about in his ear. Lejon murred as he felt a hot breath against his ear and realised the bear was licking it lightly. Lejon blushed, it would have been evident to Bjorn if his head wasn't positioned behind Lejon's and idly licking the lion's ear, but as it was, he noticed nothing and just increased his licking effort when he heard the murr of approval from his lion.

Lejon tried to get himself out of the bed but the bear pulled him close: "And where do you think you're going to, my goldenness?" Bjorn continued to lick Lejon's ear. The feline was doing his best, but failing nonetheless, to keep his murrs inaudible.

"I need to go for a shit" Lejon lied "and if you don't let go I'm gonna let rip"

Bjorn's paws rapidly left their place around Lejon's stomach, and the lion got up gingerly, worried as to whether he'd be able to stand or not. To his surprise he realised he could stand with not too much effort.

"Hold up hun I'm coming with you" Bjorn called out to the lion as he got up from the bed quickly to catch up with Lejon who was halfway to the bathroom door on the opposite side of the room.

"No, its fine Bjorn it's only- whoa fuuuuuuuck" Lejon staggered and fell but Bjorn caught him just before he hit the ground. As Bjorn lifted Lejon to his feet he noticed the wet spot around Lejon's groin. Bjorn started to laugh to himself.

"Ah, so someone got up to something in their dreams eh? Trying to destroy the evidence?"

Lejon blushed and hid his face in his paws.

"Maybe" He couldn't help but laugh to himself at having been caught. "Either way I still need to clean the mess and it seems like I can head home now anyway. That was just a loss of balance, people have been let out in worse conditions than me anyway." Lejon spun around on the spot to demonstrate his improved physical state.

Bjorn sighed to himself. "Well since I doubt I or anyone else can contain you here I might as well go ask. Are you really sure you'll be ok?" The bear frowned, evidently still worried for the wellbeing of his lion. When the lion nodded his response, Bjorn quickly made his way to the reception to see if he could get someone to let Lejon leave. He didn't want to leave the lion alone, but as he waited for a secretary to get off the phone, time seemed to take so much longer to pass. Seconds seemed like minutes to Bjorn, and minutes seemed to turn into days. Even the small clock mounted on the whitewashed walls seemed to take longer for each second to pass. I hope he's ok. Maybe I should go back. No, he wouldn't want that, Come on hurry up someone get off the phone... please...

"Excuse me sir can I help you?" A young female otter was looking up at Bjorn expectedly.

"Oh yeah, um, the patient in room 114 feels he is ready to leave, could you get a doctor or a nurse to check up on him as soon as possible so he can be dismissed?"

"Of course I'll just get Nurse Beatrice to do that for you. We'll do all the paperwork so there's no need to worry about it. We have the patient's file in our records."

Hmmm, I wonder why he's been here before. Meh, I guess it's just annual checkups.

"Alright, thanks very much" Bjorn smiled and quickly made his way back to the room. Lejon was sitting on the bed and looking up at Bjorn happily. His tail wagged at the sight of his lover much to Bjorn's bemusement.

"I didn't realise lion's could wag their tail's I thought they were limited to graceful swishes" Bjorn said with a wink as he sat down next to Lejon and idly played with the lion's tail as he stared deeply into Lejon's eyes.

"Well, I am part wolf, as much as I'd like to forget it" Lejon said seemingly put out by memories of his past.

"Was he a bad father as well?" Bjorn asked with concern in his voice as he took Lejon's golden paw and kissed it softly, hoping to comfort the younger feline.

"I... I don't know" Lejon said as his mind wandered into the past again. He was back in a room in another hospital and his father was on the bed once more. Words bombarded Lejon, but he had nowhere to retreat. Coma.... Your fault... Look at what you've done... I'm sorry.... "I'm sorry"

"You have nothing to be sorry about Lejon" Bjorn hugged Lejon, who was able to do nothing accept make a quiet noise of agreement, "Some fathers just don't know how to look after their children. I know of too many unfortunately. I'd never want to be a father in case I ever turned into someone like them."

"Mmm. Well can I leave yet?" Lejon asked his tail swishing around idly. "It's got to the repeat of friends on E4 and it's an episode I've seen on many previous occasions so I don't really have anything to do."

"The nurse or doctor will come check you out. But until then..." Bjorn hugged Lejon and rolled on top of him. Lejon was slightly squished but he loved the feeling and he could feel himself going erect. Bjorn rubbed himself up and down against Lejon making the lion shudder and purr.

"Sorry to bother you two." A male cheetah was standing in the doorway blushing fiercely when he realised the two furs were men. "Ok so it's Lejon Fenrir, yes?"

"Yep" Lejon pushed Bjorn off of him and sat up to shake the doctor's paw. Then remembering the tent in his trousers subtly adjusted himself and stood up, extending his paw to the doctor, then when the doctor made no motion he took it back. "Sorry, silly me; should have thought of the infectious pathogens. Sorry"

The doctor smiled at the lion, partially surprised that anyone would be using technical terms but continued nonetheless. "

I just need to ask you a few questions do one or two quick physical tests and then we'll be done."

A few minutes later Lejon was ready to leave the hospital. His clothes had been washed and he happily walked out of the hospital paw in paw with Bjorn. The bear looked at him slightly worried that a similar even might happen if they went out like this again. Lejon had assured Bjorn that it would be alright and that he'd rather live his life as who he was rather than hiding from the few who were to petty to understand love. Furthermore Lejon knew that hiding would never gain anything.

The bear and the lion walked together, their shoes crunched in the snow and their breath condensed into little ice crystals before their very eyes. A crowd of young furs walked past them, their hoods were all up, but more likely to protect them from the cold, than for any other reason. Bjorn moved to let go of Lejon's paw but the feline held onto the ursine paw firmly but gently. Bjorn shot Lejon a worried look but the lion only smiled back.

As the two lovers passed the crowd they heard the young furs whispering secretively at one point Lejon thought he heard the word "faggot", accompanied seconds later by the sound of a paw colliding with the speaker's muzzle.

"Don't you ever use that word, I have two dads y'know"

"Sorry" came a timid reply.

Lejon smiled at Bjorn. The two continued walking until Lejon pulled Bjorn to the right and into a housing estate.

"It may look all right in the snow, but believe me, it's a dump normally." Lejon made his way into a block of flats and walked with Bjorn up to the 18thfloor. As the two walked along the corridor of doors Bjorn couldn't help but feel nervous. A third of the lights weren't working, there were various stains all over the unpainted walls and the corridor smelt horrible; but Bjorn kept his comments to himself, both because he didn't want to offend Lejon or anger any of the residents.

Lejon stopped in front of a white door. It seemed to be the only door which was actually clean, but still managed to not look too pristine so that it didn't draw attention to itself. 18F was painted in black paints two thirds of the way up the door.

"Home, not-quite-as-sweet-as-I'd-like-it-to-be home" Lejon grinned at Bjorn and removed his paw from the bear's so he could get his keys from his inside pocket. Lejon opened the door for Bjorn who ventured in cautiously not sure of what atrocities he'd find inside.

To his surprise the place wasn't too bad. It had everything a house needed really; there was a kitchen and a sitting room from where he could see. A short corridor led to what he presumed would be a bedroom and toilet probably with a small shower Bjorn thought to himself council flats never have baths. But at least a small shower will be cosy.

Lejon poked Bjorn from behind. The bear, while lost in his thoughts, had forgotten to move out of the doorway and so he let Lejon past and closed the door behind him. As the door clicked shut Lejon spun round and pulled Bjorn into a deep kiss. The bear happily growled into the kiss and then spun round so Lejon had his back against the door. Lejon whined briefly.

"Sorry hun; was I too rough?" Bjorn said with a concerned look on his face.

"Oh no, sorry, the door handle was poking into my back. Now come on, let's take this to the sofa" Lejon winked at Bjorn as he pounced onto the sofa quickly waiting for the bear to follow suit. To his surprise, and delight, Bjorn pounced onto the couch, landing on top of Lejon. Lejon loved the feeling of the bear on top of him and his tongue went to work on Bjorn's beard. Bjorn growled in delight as the younger lion used his raspy tongue to stimulate his beard. Bjorn held Lejon's head gently with his paw and pressed his furry brown muzzle against the lion's golden one. Their lips mashed together and soon their tongues were poking around in each other's mouths. It wasn't long until the two male furs were trying their best to get as much of their tongue into the others as possible. Lejon loved the feeling of Bjorn's tongue; it was big and fleshy and was dominating Lejon's tongue, much to the feline's delight. As Lejon sucked on Bjorn's tongue and lightly licked at the under surface Bjorn was rubbing his crotch against Lejon's causing both of them to get hard. Lejon smiled up at Bjorn. Then his eyes widened in realisation and he rushed into his bedroom (down the small corridor as Bjorn expected) to get something.

Lejon returned with something behind his back and lay down next to Bjorn. Lejon moved his muzzle to kiss Bjorn but the curious bear wanted to see what was behind Lejon's back. As he tried to get over the lion to see the lion quickly raised his hidden paw to reveal a small piece of mistletoe, as he kissed the bear lightly.

"Merry Christmas, Bjorn" Lejon said with a smile.

"Merry Christmas, Lejon" Bjorn replied with a wink as he groped the lion's crotch and licked his ear. "Let's take this somewhere more comfortable"
