Making A Friend

Eve squirmed in my pocket the whole way up to my room. It tickled like crazy as she eventually found her way to that one perfect spot for it. At least the elevator was empty as we road up to my room on the fourth floor. I'm pretty sure I looked like a maniac there with fits and giggles coming from some invisible force. Sadly, there wasn't a thing I could do that probably wouldn't make matters worse.

Inside my room I practically threw myself into my big, round chair and dug her out of my pocket. Immediately she curled up in the palm of my hand until there was just this white fuzzy ball there. It seemed she became frightened at contact with anyone and otherwise acted on instinct to protect herself.

"Hey, its alright" I say, gently petting her, "I got us some stuff to snack on... If you calm down a bit, I can try to get you clothes and maybe some things to play with."

Slowly, Eve began to uncurl herself and stretch out. This was progress. She sat up cross legged and looked around my room. It was a small space really, eight feet wide and fifteen long. The far wall had a heater and curtained windows that we were facing. To the left was my floor lamp, night table, bed, and a shelf over the bed. On the other side of the room there was the trashcan, mini fridge, dresser, and desk with various electronics making a pretty good coating. There was the TV, blu ray player, wii, external hard drive, DVD drive, drawing tablet, phone, desk lamp, laptop and chargers for everything. Behind us there was the closet facing the bed and next to that a mirror and the door. For me, it was a reasonable space and to her it was a vast cavern.

"Okay, now listen, I'm a college student, I'm not going to hurt you. I will protect you," I told her, continuing to gently stroke her back. "Now, if you can be a good little fox, I've got food for you and you can wander the room and do what you want. Sometime later in the week I'll try to get you clothes and whatever else will help you."

She simply nodded and sat there, but, she did seem to be warming up to me. Her back pushed against my hand and she seemed to purr at the attention I was giving her.

I shifted around a bit and started to use my thumb to pet her and my other hand to get food. Once I had my hoagie unwrapped, I sat her on the wrapping in my lap and pulled off a decent sized chunk of beef and bread for her to eat. Next my chips got just dumped on the wrapping and I made her a sort of drinking pan out of my tea bottle's lid.??"Go ahead and eat" I said before starting to pretty much inhale my food. It was habit and instinct... Which turned out to be a bad idea... By the time I was done, she was curled up thinking I'd eat her... "Calm down, I'm not going to eat you."

The little vixen poked her head out of her curled up body to look up at me questioningly. Whoever she'd encountered and done a lot to break her and scare her. This would take some work.

Carefully, I picked up the wrapping with her, the little bit of hoagie, chips and drink, all of it, and put it up on my desk so that hopefully she wouldn't be so worried. "Go ahead and eat, I'll get you some water to wash up with."

Hopefully she'd start on that hoagie. For that matter I hoped she wouldn't just take off and run while I got a bowl, went to the bathroom and filled it with hot water. It was warm enough to feel a little hot, but, cool enough to not burn. This should relax her a bit.

When I got back to the room, she was still sitting there and had gotten through a noticeable amount of hoagie. My spirits were certainly up with that, as I sat the bowl down on my desk. Unfortunately though, as soon as I got in, she stopped eating and started cowering.

"You don't have to be afraid" I said, reaching out and gently petting her head. She nuzzled my hand and licked at little bits of food stuck in my fur. "If you want, I've got a bath for you." I leaned in closer to try and see her better and present a friendly face. "It should help you clean up from that nasty tumble you had earlier and get the grease out of your fur from the food."

She simply nodded and looked at the bowl, which was like a private pool to her and just a tad too big for her to easily climb into. I leaned in and was about to pick her up when I spotted a little collar. "We should probably get that collar off you before you get in," I said, "it might get ruined."??To this she immediately reacted, covering he neck and trying to hide the collar. "Oh, its a sizer-collar isn't it," I guessed, "without it you'd be really little, and you don't want that..."

Eve simply nodded her head in reply.

"Okay, you can keep your collar little miss giant vixen" I said, carefully reaching out and placing her in the bowl. She struggled and cowered at first, but then began to relax as I petted her and as she cleaned herself. When she was finished, I took her out and gave her a tissue to dry off with.

As she dried off, I watched her and saw that really, aside from her obvious abuse, she was a very nice looking fox. She had nice curves and nice fur, her face was cute and, really, I think if she'd had a better owner, she'd have been a happier fox. My goal remained to change that.

Once she was toweled off, Eve went back to her fearful cowering. Perhaps later I could shower her something that'd prove I was only going to be her friend. That was rather dependent on many things, but, it was pretty likely. For now though, I just sat her in my lap and petted her until she was asleep. Once I was sure it wouldn't bother her, I put some cartoons on to pass the time and think.??Time went by pretty quickly. The TV and various cartoons didn't exactly help that. Before I realized it, it was night time and at that, bed time. My day would be early tomorrow and, Eve would probably add a few complications to that, so, the sooner I slept, the better. At least, it'd keep me somewhat awake.??"Eve," I said gently, "Eeeeve, I need to move you." I poked her a bit and then carefully scooped her up and placed her on the bed. She was still asleep, so, I quickly showered and came back all soft, fluffy and warm. Maybe that would help her. Normal sized girls liked soft things and, when it came to that, my fur was as soft as it got.

As I slipped into bed, I thought she was still asleep and soon dozed off myself. That however, was not the case. The bed rocked and tossed just enough to rouse her from her sleep. Slowly she crept down along my sleeping side, up over my leg and straight into my boxers.

First, I'm a virgin. The only thing that ever touched me down there was ME. Second, suddenly feeling something small wriggling around was a very large source of fear. My first thought was that some damn spider was attempting to find the most sensitive space possible to bite me. Quickly, I woke up and reached in to pull out the disturbance. My little fox friend.

This was going to be ridiculous. She was utterly submissive, assumed I wanted to exploit her and assumed that she was bettering her position through it all. How do you show someone that you are their friend? Petting, feeding and helping her wash up hadn't helped at all. Perhaps doing something nice and being submissive back would perk her up?

Well, I had to try and the sooner the better. I turned a light on and sat on the bed with her in front of my paws. She wasn't even as big as my toes, perhaps half, barely half as tall as one of them, maybe. That would change though, my little secret was especially relevant to this.?

"Eve, listen, we're almost the same," I said, "I am a tiny, I just have a way to make myself bigger... I'm going to show you and try to be nice to you, but, I want you to take off your collar too so we can just be each other without anything but us there.

This got a quizzical expression as, she didn't believe me and had no desire to part with her collar. "Fine, I'll make myself a micro and get your collar so we can be small together," I said. With a thought, my expander reduced its output and the world got significantly bigger in an insignificant amount of time. Once I was her size, I snatched her collar off quickly and turned off my expander entirely... Well, it turned out the collar was a sizer collar, but, Eve was a normal micro. Inside the collar she had a picture taped in place that must've made it special to her.

As I dwindled in size, her form mightily towered over me until even her formerly tiny toes were huge. For me, this was especially true as, tinies were, to scale against a micro, far smaller than a micro was compared to a normal. To her, I might've been a flea.

"See?" I called up, "I'm harmless! You're bigger and stronger than me, so, can we just be friends! I'll even do something nice for you to prove it!"

That definitely had an interesting effect. Eve became angry. "No, no we can't" the giant said, she was having issues with this.

I watched as her utterly massive foot came off the ground and then flattened me into it. Her pads were soft and warm, although wet with sweat from how warm she'd been on the bed. I tried to squirm and free myself, but, at my natural size, it wasn't going to happen. I couldn't do much to push against her or anything, it was like being flattened over the world's most comfortable tank. That and, well, her pads were probably a half mile in diameter or some huge distance, I couldn't have covered the distance anyway.

"I am small, weak, and exploited," Eve said, "my old owners beat and abused me in every way that they could conceive... I am to be submissive because I am weak... And you! You're less than I am! My masters would have no use of you! You'd drown in their sweat before they ever noticed you were there! You can't even lift my little paw!" She shifted her weight, flexed her toes and then trapped me in between them. It was soft, but, dirty. She had clearly not bothered to do much in here. The massive digits came together and, I couldn't move an inch. "If anything! I should be saving you! You should be my little toy and my pet! Its all you should be good for! If you were lucky you'd be able to rub all of my paw or a toe without tiring out!"

I understood her problem. She had been cheated by life. In theory, I shouldn't have been as large as I was. I was weaker than her, yet, life gave me an opportunity to be stronger. She was naturally better suited to this world than I was, in its way of classifying that, and yet, I was far ahead of her. As the 'giant' that she was, it felt bad to be receiving help and pity from a lesser creature.??I doubted if she'd listen to me at the moment, but, I figured I could try and be the little submitting creature she had wanted for now. I licked the flesh in front of me and did what I could to get elsewhere. She noticed and began to relax her grip so that I would be able to work. When I started to tire, she splayed her toes and put my hour of hard work to shame by cleaning everything in a few minutes, where I had only managed a narrow field. She forced me onto her pads and had me rub, lick and work on them to little effect before she found I was not even worthy of that distinction.

Breathing there heavily on that massive pad, she plucked me up with the very tips of her claws and pulled me up to her face. "Why? Why should we be friends? You aren't of any worth to me," she said, angrily using me as her target for the world's lack of fairness.

"I found a lucky break, if you'll let me, I'll take care of you and help you find one too," I said, "BUT, if we do, you drop this whole bull shit about size mattering. It doesn't. I can be as big or as little as I please. If I can change that, why does it matter where I fit into society? It doesn't, because that doesn't define it." With that, my expander was switched on and I began to grow until I was normal sized and she was once more a little fox, now sitting there in front of my comparatively huge paws. "I wasn't mean to you, I was nice and I will be nice. I expect you'll at least try to be the same."

Eve wasn't sure now what to be, quiet and submissive or angry and dominating. In these few minutes, I had turned the tides in our scales-war. I had also given myself a very useful position. Without warning, I picked her up and dropped her in the bath-bowl, then jumped and shrank myself to micro-size to land in with her. I needed a bath and she needed better bathing.

"Alright, now that we're friends" I said, "you little miss giant, need a bath in massively understated proportions... Have you any idea how dirty your toes are?" I grabbed her paws and began to clean her, despite our near-freezing condition as, the water was only room-temperature and, that wasn't all too comfortable of a temperature.??The vixen yipped, unsure what to do. Soon though, she decided to grab my toes and clean them, then my tail and, soon afterward, we'd each moved on to all of each other and been totally clean. "We're equals now, okay, no matter how small or how large either of us are, okay?"??"Okay" she answered, floating there across from me.

"Good, you'll be that way to everyone and, I'll make sure anyone bigger than you is just as nice, but, that means you need to stick with me" I said, "during the school day, you'll need to use your sizer collar and be a tiny for a bit. You can sit in my ears or pockets or somewhere you'll be safe and then sometime this week we'll get you some things to play with in the room and clothes to where and whatnot."??"Alright" she answered once again, shocked into submission I suppose. After everything we'd just done, there wasn't anything she was really going to do or say that she already hadn't.

"Now then, we can go sleep, I need to be normal sized and you need to keep out of my underwear" I said as I climbed the edge of the 'tub', jumped out and grew myself. Carefully I fished her out, dried us off, put on clean boxers and got back in bed. This time, Eve accepted me as her protecter and her friend. She was nestled in tight against my chest, nestled in under all my fur and fluff where nothing would harm her. Then and there we'd changed something ancient and evil in her. Slowly, we drifted off to sleep.

Her thoughts were there, dancing around in circles about what had happened. Mine were calm and simple, perhaps enticed a bit by her anger and her actions. Something old in me was threatening my light. At least we were no longer alone in the darkness.
