~Morning~

~Cody~

I slowly woke up to the bright, beautiful shine of the sun and the beautiful singing of the birds outside our window. I scratched my head with my paw and looked at the time. 5:29am. "Hmm, school doesn't start for another 4 hours..." I grumbled. I still had about a good 4 hours, so I might as well get ready.

I then looked over at Mark. I could see he had a bit of drool hanging from the side of his muzzle, though let's face it, he looks like a mess. I couldn't help but giggle and stroke his fur. I heard him grumble a bit as he turned over to his side. "Might as well let him sleep," I said getting up. It is a bit too early for both of us to be up, especially after last night. But I can cope.

I got up and went straight to the bathroom. I took of my clothes, which were still stained from last night. I'll just wash our clothes after school. I quickly then went into the shower and placed the water temperature at 'hot'. Since I have a lot of time, might as well enjoy a nice, hot, steamy shower. My mind had a lot of thoughts scattering every where, but I immediately started thinking up what happened last night.

Last night was one of those moments that you can't explain. Well I could explain it, but that would ruin the beauty of it. My muzzle below still hurt from Mark's cock, he sure was big.

"I might have trouble sitting for the past few days.." I said to myself. It was worth it, though. I'm hoping to do that again another night, when I'm used to it, that is. Just then I yelped in surprise to find a pair of paws covering my eyes.

"Guess who?" I heard Mark's voice.

"Mark. I swear, you sometimes act like a cub." I couldn't help but giggle a bit.

"Love you too" He says, uncovering my eyes. I then turn around and he gives me a passionate kiss by surprise.

"Hmm, that's not nice. You didn't invite me to shower with you" He says touching my ass.

I yelped in surprise. "Ah, come on. Not in the shower." I tell him.

"Sorry, got a bit carried away. Especially after last night."

"Yeah, you tore my ass apart. I'm probably not gonna be able to sit down right for a few days." I said rubbing it a bit.

"Sorry babe. Should have gone a bit easier." He says grabbing some soap and rubbing it on both of us.

"It's fine, I loved it actually. We should do it again sometime." He quickly looked at me with a smile on his face. "Once I get used to it, and when my ass feels a lot better. But next time, I get to fuck you."

"Sounds good to me." He said giggling. We stayed in the shower for about 20 minutes, passionately kissing.

After the shower, we promptly went to our room and changed clothes. While we were changing, I couldn't help but stare at Mark's beautiful body. His masculine body made him shine like a star, and his gorgeous face just fit so well with his body. I didn't like Mark just because of his body, I'm not like that kind of guy. I like him because he's smart, funny, and a cool guy to be around. And the fact we're both in love, which makes it even better! But really, who wouldn't resist him? I'm still surprised I'm together with him. I'd thought he would have millions of girls over him while I go sit in my depression corner.

But, I still remember the day we met. It wasn't the most romantic setting, but it was the day I met my true happiness. I'm just lucky to have a guy like him, it's probably Karma. But there is always bad and good karma, so I can't get too optimistic. As I got changed, I wanted to ask him why he fell for me. Why he loved me. Why he even bother to care for me.

Let's be honest right now, compared me to a hot girl, I'd lose. I'm not a wolf that's ripped, but I have an athletic body. No packs, but I do have a bit of abs and muscle. I would say I am a bit above average, but that's fine with me. I don't like to be that kind of person that would work out 24/7 just for the perfect body. I actually loathe that.

Most gays would go to the gym 24/7 and work out for the perfect body. If they have the perfect body, they'd think they won't be ridiculed. They just push and push themselves to the max just to achieve something pretty stupid, if you ask me. You can't find true happiness like that. But today's society is pretty screwed. It's almost impossible to be your self, you just have to try and fit in. But no one's normal in this world of ours, we're all weird in our own ways.

I'd actually wish I'd live no another planet than here. But as long as Mark's here, I would live here forever. I then started thinking deeply about this. Seemed like I'm going into my depression over-thinking phase again.

"Uh, hey cody? You alright bud?" He said waving a paw in my face.

I accidentally tripped and fell back. I landed on my butt, and it kind of stung since my ass was still kind of sore. "I'm sorry!" Mark said helping me up.

"It's fine" I told him. "I just got lost in my own little world, that's all."

"You didn't look alright. You sure you're alright?" He asks me reluctantly.

I didn't want to make him nervous. Something was wrong, but I didn't want to see him worried. Seeing someone else worried/bothered/unhappy/depressed hurts me. It's true I'm not happy, but seeing others happy brings me joy to me. It's weird I know, but it's how I am.

"Yeah, I'm fine!" I said managing a smile. "I was just thinking about some stuff, nothing to worry about."

Before he could protest, I just gave him a hug. He was pretty surprised, but he didn't resist. I looked into his eyes, which were looking at mine. I was happy, but I still had those questions scattering all over my mind. I didn't dare to ask, I'll ask at a better time.

I then gave him a kiss.

"We should hurry up and get dressed so we can get some breakfast." He said, giving me a warm fuzzy smile.

My heart skipped a beat, just looking at his smile, his gorgeous face, and his beautiful eyes. "Alright then." I said, shooting back a smile back at him.

We got dressed, grabbed our bags, and went off to the small cafe.

"Hmm, let's try the small cafe near the apartment complex." I suggested.

"Alright." He said, holding my hand as we walked down toward the cafe.

~Cafe~

As we entered the cafe, I saw Katy. I was pretty surprised, what is she doing this early in the morning? Mark and I promptly found a free table and quickly sat down. We picked up the menus and scanned to see what there was for breakfast. As we scanned through the menus, I noticed Katy, the younger otter coming toward our table.

"Hey Cody!" She said to me.

"Hey Katy!" I said back. "What are you doing this early in the morning?" I asked.

"Oh, just an early shift for extra money. It's not that big of a deal, once you get used to it." She replied.

"Dang, that would be impossible for me to wake up so early and work before school. Anyways, is your boss back yet?"

"Yeah, my boss got back yesterday. Are you still coming to interview for the job?" She asked me.

"Definitely! I'll come by maybe some where at 3 or 4, if that's okay with your boss."

"Sounds great! I'll make sure to tell him." She then changed the subject. "Anyways, can I take your orders?"

Before I could answer, Mark spoke up.

"Yeah, I'll take some pancakes with scrambled eggs." He said putting down his menu revealing his face.

"Oh, hey! You're that guy that helped me clean out the apartment complex!"

Mark smiled. "Indeed I am. Nice to meet you Katy."

"Nice to meet you! Uhm, err-"

"Mark" I said to her.

"Sorry, never got the time to ask your name. Nice to meet you Mark!" She replied quickly.

"Pleasure to meet you." Mark said smiling.

"So," Katy said. "You two best friends?" She asked.

"Um, well, I guess you can put it that way." I said nervously.

"We're going out" Mark said reluctantly. Before I could reply to what he said, Katy interrupted me.

"D'awww, How cute!" I was pretty surprise to hear that coming from Katy. I would of thought she had a thing for Mark, and seeing she's one of my first female friends here, I was scared of ruining that chance with her.

"So wait," I said. "You're not bothered by this at all?"

"Naw, I knew you were both gay when I both met you, actually."

Mark and I were pretty surprised to hear that. "How?" We both asked in Unison.

"Well, I've had a pretty crazy life. I've had a lot of gay friends, though I am straight. Plus, when you hang out with people, you're almost able to read them like books." She said winking.

"That's cool." I said.

Before anything got off topic, Katy asked what I wanted.

"Um, I'll just take what Mark's having."

"So 2 pancakes with scrambled eggs, correct?" She asked us.

'"Yes."

"Okay, I'll have it ready in 10 minutes! Now I'd better hurry before my boss get's suspicious why I'm talking to my customers." She said leaving.

"Thanks!" We both said in unison. After 10 minutes went by, we got our breakfast and immediately gobbled it down within minutes. It seemed we were both pretty hungry. After finishing, we paid our bill and gave Katy an extra tip. She also reminded me to be here at 3 for the job interview.

I then looked at my watch and saw it was 7:59am. We still had about an hour left, so we had some free time. I didn't know where to go, since I wasn't really used to going any where else. Just then, Mark sparked an idea.

"Since we have a lot of time on our hands, want to go stroll down the park?"

"Sounds like a great idea!" I said.

"Great! This park has a secret pathway which leads to a beautiful waterfall. I'm the only one who knows it."

"Sounds fun!" I said.

"Yeah, I'll make sure it'll be fun."

Mark then came over toward me. "Here, get on my back." I blushed a bit.

"O-on your back?" I said hesitantly.

"Yeah, come on! I'm pretty strong and It'll be fun for you." He said smiling at me.

"A-are you sure about this?" I ask.

"Totally! Come on, don't be such a cub" He says in a taunting tone.

I knew I couldn't argue against him, he'd probably just forcefully put me on his back. I decided not to think about it, and I got on his back. I swear, I felt like a little cub again. Remembering how my father used to put me on his shoulders when we went to the carnival. It was pretty boring, but that was a time my parents were actually happy. If they were happy, I'd be happy. I did live a hard life, but this feeling, just brought me happiness. We then got to the park in a matter of minutes.

~Park~

"How's the view?" Mark asked me.

"It's magnificent." I said. I felt like nothing could ruin this moment, it was just so beautiful.

I wished I regretted those last words, for I spoke too soon. As Mark was carrying me on his back through the park, we heard someone yell at us.

"FAGS!" Someone yelled. As we turned around, we saw it was a blue feline cheetah with a group. The blue cheetah was as tall as Mark, but not that muscular. "Hey fags, you don't belong here. So why not just leave this park already? You're ruining the moment for everyone."

As he called us out, we noticed a crowd forming around us. I swiftly got down from Mark's back and went over to him. Mark tried stopping me, but I told him it'll only be a second. I was pretty mad, the nerve he had to call us out like that. I just wasn't going to stand that. Luckily, if I was in trouble, I knew karate from when I learned as a kid. I know he was pretty much twice my size, but I'm sure I'd be able to kick his ass.

I confronted him face-to-face. "What did you say?" I said in a low voice. "Didn't you hear me?" He replied back.

I quickly grabbed my bag, wrapped it around his neck and pulled him toward my height so we were face-to-face. "I'm not going to ask again," I said. "What did you say?" The cat wasn't hesitant, he was pretty stupid actually. Right after I asked him, he attempted to punch me in my face but I dodged it and he fell over by tripping himself. The crowd then started to erupt in laughter. I could't help but laugh myself.

"You're gonna pay, fag!" He said yelling, running toward me with his fist locked in an offensive attack. I quickly blocked his punch, and front kicked his face, which sent him flying to the floor in a matter of moments. The crowd was pretty shocked to see what I was able to do, including Mark. Just as I came over to him, out of no where, one of the cheetahs friends came at me with a stick. I didn't know what to do. I didn't have time to block or dodge it, just as I closed my eyes. I saw a big figure standing over me. It was Mark!

I saw as the cheetahs friend hit Mark in the face with his stick. Mark quickly grabbed the stick and pushed the friend aside. I then came over to Mark's side to examine the blow he just took. Just then, we heard the K-9 unit come over. "Crap," I said. Let's go Mark." Just as I was going to help Mark up, remarkably, Mark got up and carried me and we ran through a mysterious path.

After losing them, we sat beneath a tree. We sat there in silent, both of us trying to comprehend what just happened. I wanted to cry, but I held it in. It was my fault Mark took the blow. It was my fault Mark's hurt. Because of my stupid, selfish decision, Mark has a bruise on his face. I never anticipated one of the cheetahs friends would help him. After a few minutes of silence, I spoke up.

"Why'd you do it?" I asked reluctantly.

"Huh?" He said in a confusing manner. "Why'd you take the blow for me? I told you I had it, you should have just stayed put. I would have been alright..." I then started to tear up. Mark didn't answer, but he just sat there silently. "

I felt weak again. I knew I couldn't take them on, but I was confident to protect Mark. I didn't want him to fight my battles, I wanted to defend myself for once" I said in my mind.

"Mark, why do you care so much for me?" The Dog looked confused. "Why do you love me so much? Why did you decide to protect me?" I was fighting back the tears, but it was no use.

"Out of all the boys you could have bumped into that day, why'd it have to be me? I'm nothing but trouble. I'm weak, insecure, and I make you take pity on me. Ever since I've been young, I've always been weak. Now that I think about it, I feel like I'm going to be a bother for you in the future. And i'll be afraid we won't be together anymore, but I feel like it would be the best thing to do. I honestly feel like you deserve someone better. I fee-"

Before I could finish, Mark grabbed me by my shoulders, turned me around, and kissed me.

"Don't you ever say that again." He told me crying. "When we met in the apartment complex, I thought it was love at true sight. It's true I've met a lot of handsome gay men, but you were different from the rest." He told me.

I was going to say something, but he then continued on.

"When I saw you, I fell in love with you. When you smiled at me, I knew I fell in love with you because you smiled. After the incident that occurred to me in the past, I want to protect everyone. I swore to protect you, and that's what I'm doing. Don't victimize yourself, I love you, Cody. I'll love you till the end, even if you don't love me back." He said tearing up.

"But, I feel like a bother to you. I feel like I'm nothing but a burden. I'm weak, and I'm honestly a mess" I said to him.

He then grabbed me and pulled me towards him as we met face-to-face.

"I didn't fall in love with you because of your looks, your insecurity, or none of that. I feel in love just who you are. Because I love you, I'd never let you go in any situation. Don't think about the past, it'll just bring you tears. Don't think about the future, it'll just bring you fears. Just think about the present, and cherish the wonderful smile and cheers." He said.

"I love you, Cody."

"I love you too, Mark." I said to him and as our muzzles met, we pulled each other into a deep, passionate kiss.

"We're going to have to go through a lot of difficulty, but I'm sure it'll work." I say to him smiling.

"Yeah, that is true. But you know the saying, 'True love never dies, it only get's stronger with time."

"Yeah, it does." We then kissed again and got up.

"Here, follow me." He said grabbing my hand. "We're still going to see that waterfall."

As we walked down the path, I saw a huge, beautiful waterfall pouring down. I stared in awe. Mark and I just stood there, cherishing it's beauty.

"Hey, Cody." Mark said to me.

"Yeah?" I replied back, holding him close to me.

"Remember when you said how out of the people I would bump into that day, why were you lucky? I wouldn't say it would be luck.

I'd just say it's Karma's Fate on it's good side.

"Yeah, maybe you're right." I said giving him a kiss.

"Well, we should probably get going now. Class starts in about 20 minutes." He told me.

"Yeah, let's go." I said.

As we walked down the path toward the college, I couldn't help but stare at the waterfall in awe one last time before we left.

"I guess the old saying is true." I said to myself.

"Love is like a Waterfall, it pours out of you forever." I said in a low voice, managing a smile.

"Huh, what was that?" Mark asked me.

"Oh nothing!" I said. "Let's hurry before we're late to class!" I said quickly. I was still on Mark's back, but he didn't seem to care.

But, I'm still hoping in my heart, we'd see that waterfall one more time, one day.

I finally managed to smile, and we set off towards our classes, awaiting what Karma has in store for us next.
