Too Good To be True
#1 of Another New Family
This is the Disclaimer thingy, if you are underage or dont like gays dont read this, otherwise enjoy the read, i know its kinda short but i worked pretty hard on it.
"God this is going to suck" I thought as I stared out the window of the taxi at the city apartments zooming by. See here's the deal im a 14 year old raccoon with no real parents because of how they had dumped me at an orphanage, right after I was born. And to make things worse I've been shuffled from foster family to foster family ever since, and hated every minute of it. Every time I went to a knew "home" I was always put to work as soon as I got there, like some kind of slave, like I said I've always despised it.
I shuffled out of the bright yellow taxi with a disheartened look on my face. I soon was standing on the curb looking at a two story dark green building that I was supposed two live at. It had a few windows, I noticed a box garden hanging out of the window, that was something I hadn't seen at any of my other homes.
I looked at the grey wooden door of the supposed "loving" home I was to be staying at, thinking "At least these people are practical". I started to knock on the door but as my knuckles hit the door it opened. And standing there was a slim older looking otter standing in the door. I stumbled back a little, almost falling on my butt. But I felt the otters paw on my shoulder holding me up.
First thing out of the otters mouth "boy, you're a clumsy one aren't you?" he let out a small chuckle as he said it to. I started to feel embarrassed, but quickly recovered from it as he led me inside. I stared around the apartment we were in, it was actually really nice, it had a dark green carpeting, a couch with a few pillows on it, a large T.V. at least 42 inches and a nice sized coffee table. It also had a few pictures on the wall most of them were of the otter. There were a few others but I really didn't look at them.
Still feeling a little weird about the whole new home thing, I decided to try and get on his good side, right off the bat. "So your name is?" I asked trying to sound cool. "It's Ray" he replied giving me a small smile as he did. "And yours is?" he added. "Its Alex" I said trying to sound confident while still staying cool. "That's good, needed to make sure we got the right raccoon" he chuckled at the little joke he had made.
He motioned for me to sit down on the tan couch, I happily complied as I had been sitting on a uncomfortable taxi cab seat for hours on the way over here, and the couch looked really comfy. He smiled and sat next to me putting his arm around me, which wasn't exactly all to comforting to me.
"So Ray, are there any things I should know about while im here?" I asked really wanting to know so I didn't get into trouble, mostly because when I used to get into trouble it always ended with a beating. "No not really", not the answer I was expecting but still it was better then other answers I had gotten from other various guardians. "I was wondering on the way over here, why did you want a kid?". "Because, Tom and I have always wanted a son and we thought that it would be nice to add another member to our family", I could tell he was being honest, or at least I think I could. "Plus when the agency showed us all the different pictures of the kids, we thought that you looked like the best choice for a son".
I smiled that was one of the first actual compliments that I had gotten in a long time. And it had felt pretty good to get it to. I started to say that he had a cool apartment when I realized something. "Wait... did you say Tom, as in a guy? I asked with a inquisitive look on my face. His smile faltered a bit, "ya, well see im kinda... gay. And Tom is my mate and I love him a lot."
I almost fell off the couch at that, his smile had grown into one of concern, you're okay with that, right? I nodded kind of unsure, but I really didn't want to go back to one of those foster homes. And he seemed nice so far if he was gay so what, I really didn't care, just as long as I didn't get my ass beat like before. I shook at that thought.
And Ray seemed to notice, he looked at me with an inquisitive yet concerned look. I quickly said "I'm okay". He just looked at me and said "no, your not". I just looked at him as though to say 'how the hell do you know?'. "See im a psychologist, its my job to read body language." I nodded in realization. " Alex as your new dad I want you to know that its okay to talk to me". It slowly dawned on me how cliche the moment that was going on right now was, I laughed at this.
Ray smiled at me with a small swish of his whiskers, which was kinda cute. I guess he thought that I was happy about having someone to talk to, as if that would ever happen.
"Hey Ray is there anything to eat here?"
I asked with a rumbling in my stomach, I guess he heard cause he replied "Not here, but I was
going to get some food when I walked into you at the door".
After that we went and got some Chinese food, and Ray took me to the movies, we saw a really funny one about a secret agent who's really clumsy. We finished it up with renting a romantic comedy (I wanted to get a action one but since I picked the movie, I let him pick the DVD for the night).
I was getting out of the car when I saw a few of the lights were on inside the house. "Alex you ready to meet your second dad?" said Ray with a smile on his face.
"You mean tom.... right?"
"of course, who else?" he replied.
Soon we were inside and there was a bustling coming from the kitchen. I just assumed that it was tom, and to be honest I was really nervous. Ray sat on the couch pulling the small coffee table closer to it. He then padded the seat next to him just like when I had first shown up not even a total of four hours ago, I smiled and quickly sat next to him. To be perfectly honest I was really liking having Ray as a dad, I mean he was nice to me, really liked me apparently, and had one awesome attitude and sense of humor.
As I sat down I heard "Hey... can I get a little help in here" coming from the kitchen, and I couldn't help but notice the slight Scottish accent mixed in with the gruff voice. I looked at Ray to see if he was going to get up but I guess that he wanted me to go surprise my tom by having me sneak up and help him, im guessing, that or he didn't want to get up.
But I motioned my way into the kitchen finding a large... Panda!!! I almost squealled at my delight. See here's the deal I've always liked certain animals better then other ones mostly because of there physical traits, and panda's were on the very top of the list. I just could never get over that shiny white fur, that was so perfectly complemented by that beautiful shadow black fur that you swear you could lose yourself in, the good way I mean. Plus Tom was wearing a pair of jeans and a light blue Hawaiian shirt, leaving everything to imagination.
I kinda stood there trying to get over the fact that I was now in a family with an amazing otter and a big kinda tubby panda for dads, I guess I kinda checked out. Cause next thing I new Tom was about eye level with me waving his paw in front of my face asking if I was okay. Okay that makes two funny first impressions in one day, as I regained my composure I said "hi... so your Tom, its nice to meet you" extending my small brown paw to meet his large black one. He batted away my paw... I looked down in disappointment.
Next thing I new I was being wrapped up in the arms of the big panda in front of me, "I guess Ray hasn't told you that I prefer a hug over a handshake any day" he nuzzled me as he said it to, which felt absolutely wonderful. I had my arms around that giant panda in less then two shakes of a rams tail, hugging back with full force. "No, Ray didn't mention that." I said with a smile on my face.
"Now, close your eyes and keep them closed until I say you can open them." Tom said with a commanding voice.
I backed up and put both paws over my eyes. Soon he was leading me by my shoulders, my eyes still covered. "Alright, take a look"
As he uncovered my eyes I saw a medium sized room with a large queen sized bed, a large T.V. (Maybe 24 inches or something) with a brand new Xbox 360 and three dance pads sitting next to it. Along with a dresser, a desk, and a door that either led to the closet or the bathroom... I think. I smiled and gave Tom a really big hug, and I guess Ray had snuck up when my eyes were covered, cause he was standing next to Tom. And as soon as I had embraced Tom there was Ray with his arms rapped around all of us.
After that touching new family moment, Tom showed me how to work the game system and we started playing Dance Dance Revolution for a good three hours Tom had worked up quite a sweat, and damn he looked hot with that small amount of moisture shining off his black and white fur. His body moving to the beat of the game, him and Ray having a blast. At the time I was taking a break after I was really tired.
After that we ate dinner watched the movie that Ray picked, which was really good cause by the end all three of us were cuddling on the floor, a picture perfect day. By the time the movie was over it was about ten so we decided to go to bed.
As I crawled into my bed I looked up at the ceiling thinking, 'wow I'm absolutly loving it here" as I drifted off into sleep.
I yawned and sat up in my bed looking at the pitch black outside through the skylight in the center of my room. There was a slight creaking coming from the door, I looked over and saw my new tubby dad sticking his head in smiling at me. "You comfortable?"
I smiled and nodded a yes, "good cause I saw you giving me all those looks during today." I stood there awestruck, he noticed!
"Ya and there's something else to... ... ... okay, um Alex are you gay?
I looked down to see my bushy striped tail wrapped around me, "to be honest... I.... think... so"
He smiled and moved all the way into my room, my jaw dropped, he was naked!!!
And then he crawled onto the bed next to me, his paws slowly moved to caress my big bushy tail, "is this why you picked me to be your son???, give me all this cool stuff and then turn me into some kind of sex slave!?!?
"No no no no (really fastly) its just I thought that you looked really cute earlier and... I don't know what I was thinking,"
he motioned to get up but hell I wasn't going to let his conscience get in the way of my new fantasy being fulfilled, I quickly moved my paw to his exposed sheath rubbing his sheath slowly up and down.
Then a loud ringing came out of nowhere
"What the hell!?!?" no no no no no no Damn it
I turned in my bed looking at the waking clock next to my bed, Damn it, it was just a dream I realized.
All i could do was sigh.
