#4 of My days with Alex

Our wuffs story continues...


Hello everyone! Here's our next chapter in this little series. I'm not quite certain about how I feel how the chapter came out when I wrote it down, but for the moment I'm happy enough with it and I'm sure it'll do! :) As usual, don't forget to comment, vote, fave and do all that good stuff. Especially comments will help you telling me what I should improve on and all that jazz. Enjoy! P.S: that song in the beginning is "Euphemia" by Area 11

"Betrayed by trust, forever left to scream"

I panted as I ran on the treadmill, a minute left of my usual fifteen minute jog before a few minutes rest and then go for another fifteen minutes of jogging. My music was playing into my ear as I had my mp3 player with me, and it was currently playing one of the same songs I remember listening to when I first met a certain tiger a few days ago.

"Oh hold me closely and die in my arms"

It was perhaps not the best workout music, but right now I didn't care much about what was playing. I had come to the gym for two reasons: to get my usual exercise and to try and clear my head with the help of said exercise.

"And then take this secret with you"

The week had started fairly well, despite my slight hate of Mondays. Quite a lot of the Monday had been spent in thinking about the pleasant memories that Alex had given me and it had been an unusually good Monday. Normally I would've probably been a bit grumpy, since I wasn't a fan of Mondays. But not this past Monday. It had been quite alright, with both the official promotion and the pleasant thoughts.

"Just take my secret with you!"

As the song ended I decided that my fifteen minutes were close enough to be over and I started to turn down the speed of the treadmill until it came to a stop and I stepped down. I grabbed a towel I had left lying on a nearby chair and wiped my sweat off from my face and then took a swig of water from my water bottle.

I turned my mp3 player off for a bit while I sat down on the chair and rested. Coming to the gym to try and get my mind from things hadn't really worked out. It was still just as clogged of the thoughts that had been going through my mind for the whole day, and I guess listening to that song didn't help much.

I looked up at the gym-ceiling and gave a sigh.

Last night I had sent that text message to Alex. I had felt nervous about it since I was a bit paranoid about him thinking it would've been weird, but I also felt hopeful and a smile was on my face as I waited for a response. I had taken the first step to hopefully get to meet him again.

For a few minutes I waited, without getting a response. I of course wondered why he hadn't responded, but since there could be a million reasons for why he hadn't responded right away I wasn't too worried.

Then another ten minutes past.

And another ten.

No response at all. Fearing that maybe he had written down the wrong number, I quickly looked him up with my laptop. It felt maybe a bit stalker-ish to be doing that, but I didn't really care. I guess there weren't a whole lot of furs named Alex Leigh in this city, as it didn't take long at all to find his number. And the number displayed to me on the computer screen was the very same one that I had on my phone.

Starting to feel worried about why I wasn't getting a response, fearing that maybe he didn't really want to talk to me after all, I had even tried calling him just to see if I could reach him at all. But all I could hear from the speaker in my phone was the usual tone you'd hear when nobody was picking up. And after a while I just reached his voice mail, but decided not to leave a message.

Feeling defeated, I put my phone down on my living room table and curled up on my sofa. In my head I went through any reason for why I wasn't getting a response. Maybe he was already sleeping or was doing something that kept him busy. Maybe he had misplaced his phone somewhere. Maybe he had someone over, and because of that he didn't want to answer...

I stared up at my familiar ceiling, as I had done so many times before. I sighed to myself as I let these thoughts run through my head. I didn't really know why it was bothering me. Like I said, there could've been a million reasons for why he didn't answer. But I couldn't help but to feel bothered by it. I guess he really must've had a big impact on me, for making me feel this way over someone I had only known for a day. I guess that, somewhere deep down, I felt lonely and that's why I got so attached.

And that's how my thoughts went for an hour or so before I had had enough of it. I was feeling tired again, both from my usual Monday tiredness and from the worried feelings going through me now. And since I still hadn't gotten a respond, I decided to call it an early night and went to bed. I fell asleep surprisingly easily, but my sleep had been plagued by bad dreams.

Now it was Tuesday. I had finished a very grumpy and tough workday. I was glad I had my own office now, cause that meant I could more easily be left to myself. There weren't any matters to be handled and my teammates could do their work on their own, so nobody really needed me. I had gone to the gym almost immediately after work, only stopping by my home to pick up my gym stuff. The whole day I had spent hoping to get to hear from Alex, but to no avail. And since my head had been filled with bad thoughts, I had decided to go to the gym in hope of the exercise would clear my head a bit.

Of course, it hadn't worked.

And another fifteen minutes of jogging I doubted would help. I had already been here for over an hour, doing both some weightlifting and jogging. And since neither had helped, I now decided to just call it quits and head home. I wasn't really feeling like being in a public place now anyway. Normally I'd really enjoy going to the gym, both because of the exercise and because of the hot guys I always could sneak a glance at. But today I just... wasn't really that much in the mood for either, I guess.

I headed for the locker rooms, quickly wiped some remaining sweat off and then put on my usual jeans and shirt. Normally I'd shower at the gym, since that gave prime opportunities to catch some good sights (even though it could be a bit dangerous if I perhaps got a bit too excited), but today I was just gonna shower at home. I got my stuff and left, and soon I found myself in my car on my way home.


The water felt really nice as I let it fall down on me. My shower was almost done, and it was probably the only thing that had felt really good today. There was probably nothing better than a nice, cooling shower after working out. Well, having some company in the shower could of course make it even better...

But thoughts like that only made me think of Alex again, and whatever good thoughts that the shower had brought with it was quite quickly torn away and replaced by the bad thoughts. I ran a paw through my soaked head fur as I let out another sigh.

Was I really this obsessive over someone I barely even knew? It felt strange and it couldn't possibly be normal! Obsessing over someone you had known for a day... who did that? Well, apparently I did...

I remembered my ex once saying something about me getting a bit obsessive sometimes. He had told me that often during times when I had been left alone for a couple of weeks while he was off on his work trips I had gotten quite obsessive over him and called a lot. I don't think it was something I had thought much about back then, since to me it had only been natural to want to talk with your boyfriend. And I couldn't recall calling him THAT much anyway. About once every day, sometimes twice.

Of course, he was my ex and he was someone that had proved to be very unfaithful, and whatever he had said was probably not something I should pay much thought too anyway since half the stuff he used to tell me where lies anyway.

I looked down at the floor for a few seconds as I turned off the water, wondering if there was maybe something wrong with me for being this obsessive. Maybe I should ask someone I knew and see what they had to say? But who...

Well, that wasn't that hard of a question to be honest. The fur that knew me the best was my brother Sean, and he was always understanding and good at giving advice. And since he had known me for my whole life, he was sure to have noticed anything unusual about me.

"I'll call him once I've dried my fur" I thought to myself as I stepped out of the shower and reached for a towel. But I had barely had time to start drying myself off before I could hear the familiar tune coming from my cellphone that I had left by my bathroom sink.

"Huh... probably Sean that wants to check on me as usual..." I said to myself as I reached for it. I didn't bother to check who was calling as I was sure it was my brother, I just hit the "answer call" button and held the speaker to my ear.

"Robert's" I said as usual when answering my phone so that the caller would know that they had actually reached my phone and not someone else's.

"Hello? Robert? This is Alex. Alex Leigh. Uhm..."

My eyes widened and my whole body tensed up as I heard that voice and I froze for a moment, not sure what to say or think.

Alex? It was Alex?

He had finally contacted me, after a whole day of me moping and being in a generally bad mood because of not getting an answer. And now, when I heard his voice again, I wasn't quite sure what to do. It didn't take long though before I could feel that old jitter in me and I could also feel relief and a hint of happiness. He had finally answered!

"Robert? You there?"

I my head twitched a bit as I realized I had just been standing there, being quiet for a couple of seconds. I cleared my throat as I started talking.

"Alex? Hey, whatsup!"

It sounded maybe a bit lame, but I didn't know how to start. On the other end of the phone I could hear a small sigh and I figured he was just glad he had called the right fur.

"Not a whole lot, sitting in front of my computer and not doing much. What about you? You alright?"

I thought I could hear a slight purr as he spoke and, and hearing that purr caused a warm feeling to start in my belly. I could feel myself smiling as I quickly dried myself off with one paw, my tail wagging excitedly. I could feel more and more of my bad feelings slip away from me, and it felt great!

"I'm just getting out of the shower. I'm glad to hear from you!"

I could hear him chuckle and then purr again. I started to awkwardly slip into my bathrobe, finding it a bit difficult when holding the phone in one paw.

"Yeah, I'm sorry I didn't respond yesterday. I forgot my phone at work..."

He gave what I guess was a slightly abashed laugh and I chuckled and, as I was finally in my bathrobe, opened my bathroom door and stepped out.

He forgot his phone at work. And here I had been going around all day being worried about him not wanting to talk to me...

"It's alright Alex, I'm just glad to hear from you again!"

I could feel myself blush a bit at my own words and the tiger just chuckled and kept purring. I imagined him sitting there, with a nice smile on his face and that striped tail happily swaying back and forth.

"And I'm glad you saved my number and decided to try and reach me! I had a great day together with you, not to mention our night together!"

He gave a playful growl and I couldn't help but to just feel a little tingle down at my crotch region when once more remembering the Saturday night.

"I had a great day too Alex, even without the... well... sex."

I sat down on my bed and leaned back, my ears flicking at the various sounds coming from his end of the conversation. I could hear his breaths and purrs and growls and any sound he made, and I found myself wishing we were having the conversation face to face on this bed rather than over the phone.

"Hehe, well I'm sure you enjoyed giving my striped butt a good ride. I know I did, even though I got a bit sore!"

He growled again and gave a chuckle and I found myself blushing even more. He sure didn't seem to be shy when it came to sex talk! And even though I was blushing, I didn't really mind. I was often a little bit reserved when it came to that, but with the right fur I could definitely talk about anything. And Alex sure seemed to be the right fur!

"Good to hear I wasn't the only one that enjoyed it. I'm gonna have to buy more lube and condoms though, we used up most of what I had left!"

He giggled a bit at this and I laughed as well. I could feel the heat down in my groin increase and I suspected that if this went on, I would end up having to do some pawing.

"Well we did fuck a lot that night. Plus the extra play the morning after!"

I could basically hear him grin and I wondered if he too was starting to feel a bit happy in certain regions.

"I hope we could have a repeat sometime!"

My ears flicked and I grinned when I heard him say those words. Getting down and dirty with the tiger again was certainly not something I'd have any protests against! He was pretty damn hot, especially because of the stripes, and another night with him was something I could definitely look forward too.

"Hehe, maybe we can. I sure wouldn't mind!"

He growled again at me and I gave him a playful growl back while I, for a moment, let myself imagine a second night together with him.

"I say we got ourselves a deal then!"

I heard him giggle again and I chuckled and then laid down on my bed, silence falling between us for a few seconds. I figured he was perhaps imagining the same things I were, which was why I only heard purrs right now and no words.

"How was your day, Robert?"

I didn't want it all to be just about sex though, and as he gave me that question I wondered if he felt the same. I scratched my chest a bit as I wondered how to answer his question. I didn't want to make him feel bad for not being able to respond and I didn't want to come out as weird for obsessing over him.

In the end I figured that honesty was probably the best. If we were maybe gonna get things going between us, I wanted to be honest with him.

"It was... rough."

I started with just that, to see if he'd be interested to hear why it had been rough and also to give myself some more time to think. I thought I could hear him sit up in his chair or sofa or whatever he was sitting on.

"Oh? Did something bad happen or...?"

I thought I could hear a worried tone in his voice, and it made me smile for a moment. Of course, then I thought about why it had been a rough day...

"I was... worried. About why you didn't answer. I thought maybe you didn't want to talk to me after all."

I felt a bit ashamed as I told him the truth, and I could hear him give a few nervous breaths. I wondered what was going through his head.

"I'm sorry, Robert. I shouldn't have forgotten my phone..."

I felt even more ashamed now and I sat up again as I shook my head a bit as to say it wasn't his fault the day had been rough. Of course, he couldn't see me do that though...

"Don't be sorry. It's none of your fault. It's really just me being... silly."

Both of us went silent for a few moments and I looked up at my all too familiar ceiling, hoping I wouldn't ruin anything by admitting I had sort of been obsessing over him. The silence was finally broken by a chuckle.

"You're right, you were being silly. If I didn't want to talk to you, you wouldn't have gotten my number."

My cheeks went red again and I scratched my neck, feeling stupid. He was right. My brother had been right. I had just been acting stupid.

My ears flicked when I could suddenly hear him start purring again.

"But now we're talking again, so you don't have to feel worried or anything."

I smiled to myself when hearing those words and I laid back down on my bed, feeling relieved and kind of feeling like something heavy had been lifted off from me.

"Yeah, you're right. Was silly of me to think like that..."

"Well, to be honest I feel really flattered. I must've made quite an impression on you for making you think so much about me!"

I heard him giggling again and, with my cheeks still blushing hotly, I gave a slightly nervous laugh and scratched my neck again.

"Yeah well... you know... It's been a while since I was with someone. And you were... simply great to be with."

Had he been by my side now I would've probably looked away from him since I felt rather shy for admitting those feelings? As I listened to him I could practically hear him smile broadly and his purrs seemed to get just a tad bit louder.

"Well, you know. It would be a lie if I told you I had not thought about you as well, Robert. It had been a while for me too since I was with someone that was little more than a one nighter!"

I just kept blushing when hearing those words and I didn't really know what to say in response. I could feel that warm, good feeling inside me and the shame I had been feeling for being so obsessive quickly went away. He had been thinking about me too...

Both of us just stayed silent for a few moments. I didn't really know what to say, and I guess he didn't either. I could still hear him purring though, and I felt as if I'd be happy with just spending the night listening to him purring into my ear...

I decided to break the silence after a couple more moments, feeling it was getting a bit awkward.

"So how was your day then, Alex?"

"Oh it was nothing out of the ordinary. Helped out customers, handled the register... the usual, boring stuff."

I let myself imagine, as I remembered doing the day before, the tiger bending over and show off his nice rump a bit as he picked up a box from the store floor. I licked my lips for just a second at the image.

"Had a good day in general though?"

"Would've been better if I had had a nice wolf to keep me company!"

He gave a "mrowling" sound at me and I gave him a soft growl in response, the feeling of awkwardness being gone and being replaced by what felt like playfulness and sort of wanting to be a bit flirty.

"I don't suppose that wolf would be referring to me?"

"Maaaaybe..."

I grinned a bit at his flirting and imagined both of us being somewhere together, just talking like this back and forth while maybe cuddling and generally having a good time.

"Well I definitely would've liked having a nice tiger as company! It can get a bit lonely in my office sometimes..."

He giggled again and I growled playfully once more at him. I know I had told myself that I didn't want this to be all about sex, but it was hard to keep myself from thinking those kinds of thoughts as I talked to the tiger and images of him bending over and do other... suggestive stuff came into my thoughts. It proved hard not to move a paw idly down to my private regions...

"Oh, didn't know you had an office. Need a nice, striped secretary to go with that office?"

I grinned to myself at the thought of having Alex in there with me, maybe doing some paper work and spending the day flirting with me like all those secretaries you see in the movies does.

"It would be a bit cramped though. And I don't know if my boss would approve."

"Oh I'm sure you could find room for me. I could just hide under your desk, between your legs if nothing else..."

He purred seductively at me and it became apparent to me that I wasn't the only one really feeling happy in his nether regions.

"Sounds like someone is starting to feel a bit frisky!"

He just giggled at me and I let myself imagine him being in my office, under my desk... doing whatever it is he wanted to do.

"I hope I'm not the only one!"

I grinned a bit at his response.

"Well, what work would you be doing down there, between my legs?"

I let out a deep murr and let a paw slowly trail down towards my groin. He giggled again at me and I thought I could faintly hear the familiar sound of pants being unzipped.

"Not sure if it would count as work. Although I'd certainly be helping you out, like a good secretary."

I could hear a faint pant coming from him and it only caused the descent of my paw to go a bit faster.

"Work or not... tell me what you'd be doing down there."

And there we go! As usual, remember the votes, comments etc. I will be quite busy for a week or two, so I can't really tell when the next chapter will be up. I'll work on it when I can and it'll be done when it's done. :) Toodles!
