*~Cody~ *

A strong, musky smell filled the hallways of Canyon Highschool. I was standing behind the chemistry door, I made myself look like an idiot thinking the door was locked. I felt a sea of anxiety deep down. I could feel my nerves tingling like being tickled with a small feather. I slowly open the door and walk in steadily, hoping I wouldn't make a fool of myself, again.

Anyways, I might as well tell a little about myself. I'm a wolf. I have white fur with a mixture of blue and black in there. My blue fur went around my muzzle and went down my chest. Then I had black fur that went around my neck that went down my back. My tail was white, but at the tip was a mixture of black and blue. I was around 5'9, not too short for someone like me. I was athletic, I played soccer but I stopped since my father needed help around the church. Yes, my father was a priest. Because of that, I didn't go out much, but I oddly still maintained the body of an athlete. I wasn't buff as hell, but I had an average athletics body, maybe a bit above average.

As I walked into the classroom, I felt like an alien. I looked down at my white paws, twiddling at each other. I'm basically an alien. I thought to myself. I could feel all the stares pointed directly at me. It felt like their stares were burning holes into my eyes.

"Alright class, I want to introduce you to.. What's your name again, son?" The chemistry teacher asked me.

"C-Cody" I say breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Okay class, I want you all to treat Cody as a friend and with respect. He is a new student to this school so you better show him respect." The Chemistry teacher said finishing introducing me.

"Take a seat any where you'd like Cody. We'll be starting a lab soon." She tells me.

As I looked around for a seat, I found everyone gave me a death glare, it looked like a thread that said "If you come any where near my seat I'll kill you" type of glare. I froze up, staring blankly at the class, not knowing where to sit. Before the teacher chose a seat for me, someone decided to speak out.

"Hey Cody, why don't you sit next to me?" A husky said raising his hand. He was at the back of the classroom, I didn't even notice him when I walked in. Then again, I didn't want to notice anyone at all. I gulped as I noticed it wasn't an ordinary husky, it was a huge husky. He looked like he was on the football team, he was really buff and scary looking.

I had no choice, if I decided to sit next to anyone else, they'd probably kill me. But If I sat next to the jock, he'd probably eat me alive. I didn't care, as long as I got into a seat, away from all the death glares pointed towards me.

I walked steadily to the back of the seat next to the large, muscular husky.

"God I hope he doesn't eat me alive." I say praying in my mind.

===================================

*~Gray~ *

Cody was moving awfully sluggish. He had a mask of terror as he neared me. Geez, I doubt he gets out much. Just because I was in football and I'm big and strong and look scary doesn't mean I'm going to beat him up and make him do my school work. I hate those type of stereotypical descriptions of jocks they make in the movies, it's sickening. But then again, that's the thing with Highschool movies or TV shows, they like to exaggerate people. I inhaled a breath of fresh air from the calm atmosphere and exhaled in a sigh.

As Cody neared me, he still seemed uncomfortable. Though, he looked pretty cute when he was nervous I thought to myself. I liked his color and pattern, it looked absolutely adorable and fit him very well for a nervous guy.

Wait what. I just called him cute and adorable? Huh, that was pretty unexpected.. It was probably nothing. Guys always compare themselves to other guys, it's natural. It's just like when girls called other girls pretty, same thing happening now. Yeah, that's probably it.. Whatever, I doubt that will affect me.

"No, you think he's cute, don't deny it." I say to myself.

Great. Now I'm having one of those moments where I argue with myself. And it seems the other part of me thinks he's cute.. "I don't think he's cute, I'm just comparing myself to him, everyone does that." I say in defense.

No response. Seems like I won. That's good, when ever I argue with myself it ends up in me yelling at myself which ends up in everyone hearing me..

"Y-You're not going to hurt me, are you?" He managed to stutter out as he reached the edge of the seat next to me. I sighed in exasperation. I guess he really does believe the crap they put on Highschool drama movies.

"No, I'm not going to hurt you." I say with a smile on my muzzle. "Though, I'm not sure about everyone else." I could see that everyone's death glares started to turn into fake smiles as I looked at them.

He sat down and got his materials out. Mrs. Fuix then started talking about the chemical structures of atoms and what-not. Her lectures bored me, I know I wasn't the smartest in chemistry, but she could at least talk about something interesting or make her teaching FUN.

I then turned to look at Cody, he was unusually staring at me.

"W-Why are they doing that?" Cody asked me in a gentle tone, his voice was as gentle as a lamb.

My mind was in a fog when he asked me that question. I stared at him confused. "What do you mean?" I ask, staring at him blankly.

Cody scanned the whole classroom. I can tell he meant the students because everyone seemed to be staring at Cody. Their facial expressions seemed to be saying "How dare you sit to MY Gray." The facial expressions seemed to be too much for Cody because he was concealing his face by nudging next to me, trying to hide himself using my arm. How soft his white fur felt, it felt like an angels touch.

"They look like they want to eat me alive." Cody said. I started to sweat a bit.

"Nah, they're probably just hungry. I heard today's breakfast was just cereal and milk. Well, if you call cereal with cardboard pieces and expired milk breakfast." I respond jokingly, giving a sly smile.

"I suppose I'd be hungry, too. If that's ALL they had this morning." I noticed a gaze of satisfaction on his smile. He managed to give a weak smile. That didn't matter to me, as long as he was opening up a bit to me.

Mrs. Fuix continued talking about the structure of atoms and how they worked, and I still ignored her boring lecture.

"Okay Class," Mrs. Fuix said. "You may now pick your partners."

"Shit!" I said in a mutter as I saw a pack of students rush towards my desk. Why do people even want to partner with me? I'm literally the dumbest husky in this class, I'm surprised I even made it this year.

Off to my left, I could see a panic expression on Cody'sface, as a herd of students came towards the back of the room. Now I feel guilty for putting Cody throw such a horrible situation. I could see him frantically trying to find a way to escape from the walls of students that contained us in such little space.

I guess there's only one thing to do. I'll have to partner up with Cody. Though, that's probably not a good idea. I can imagine all the girls that would rip up the cute wolf if I did such a thing..

Ugh, there I go again, I called him cute. Weird, there was no response from the other me. I'm probably right, as I've said before. Before it turned heinous, I finally spoke up.

"Sorry guys, I already chose my partner." I then looked to my left and stared at Cody, who was still struggling to escape. "Right, Cody?"

Cody froze and looked at me, holding his breath. "Wha-what?" He managed to stutter out. Okay, I had to admit, he looked adorable, but I don't like him. Though, I felt bad for putting him in the spot light like that.

"You're my lab partner. Sorry everyone." I heard groans of disappointments from many, but they left without saying anything else. A few people towered over Cody and gave him a death glare that made the wolf's face turn whiter than his fur. I know I felt guilty for doing that, but I couldn't help but try to keep a straight face.

They luckily left, as well as everyone else who tried harassing the hell out of me. Luckily, the class settled down. Though, I couldn't help but apologize.

"Hey Cody, sorry for all of this. I shouldn't have put you in the spotlight like that, I saw how nervous you got." I said to him in the most apologetic way I could.

"T-That's okay." He managed to say.

"Do you still want to be lab partners?" I ask reluctantly with a wink.

"I-I'd like that." Cody said with a slight blush. I guess my wink just has that kind of affect on people.

"Can I ask you a question, uh, Gray?" He said to me.

"Why?" Was the only word he said.

"Huh? What do you mean?" I ask. I was pretty confused.

"Why did you partner up with me? There are a ton of other students to partner up with, but why me? Plus, I barely know you.." He asks lowering his head a little.

That question got me thinking. Why did I decide to partner up with him? Was it because I liked him? No.. Was it because I felt bad for him? Probably.. I did feel bad for him and I still am guilty for putting him through this.

"Oh you know, all the better." I say with a sly smile, giving him another wink.

Cody blushed again, I could see it in his face. "Oh, okay." He said managing another smile. I'm glad he's starting to warm up to me now. Though, I can't help but apologize again. I was invading his personal space. And believe, it's rare for me to apologize to someone this many times.

"You're strang -- I mean, weird." He said to me. "Sorry if that came out wrong, or offensively."

"Oh, that's okay." I say.

"I agree with you fully." The other side of me said in my brain.

"Quiet you!" I said in a low, muttering voice.

"Are you okay, Gray?" He looks at me with a confused stare.

"Yeah, I'm fine, really." Stupid inner voice...

"You really are strange.." He says in a low voice, wagging his tail slowly. "B-but I like that... sorry if that came out awkward."

I could see his cheeks flaring up again, I couldn't help but admit mine did, too. "T-that's okay" I said stuttering. I haven't stuttered since freshman year, but I couldn't help it. His comment made me blush a bit, I looked down and stared at the lab instructions and containers that Mrs. Fuix passed out to conceal my face.

"Anyways, I think we should start on the lab. I'm not the best of chemistry, so I'm sorry if I'm not a lot of use." I was being honest, I sucked at chemistry.

"Oh, that's okay. I'm pretty good at Chemistry. It only comes down to a little math and a bit of memorization, that's all." He tells me.

"Easy for you to say.." I said muttering.

Well, I might as well make myself useful by trying to find which chemicals to mix. I grabbed the instruction paper and started on the lab.

===================================

*~Cody~ *

I saw as Gray was frantically looking at his paper, desperately trying to find what these chemicals mean and what to do with them. I giggled a bit, seeing him struggle like that with chemistry was pretty funny. I started mixing the chemicals just as the paper instruction said. Mean while, I saw Gray was about to mix the wrong chemicals.

"Wait Gray!" I say, yelling at him. Gray stood there frozen with both chemicals in his hand, he then looked at me nervously.

"Just an FYI, those aren't the right chemicals. I hope you're not planning on killing us because mixing those 2 chemicals will cause a fire.."

He laughed nervously and put the chemicals down. "Sorry, I didn't want to seem useless."

I couldn't help but giggle a bit. He was really cute, I'm surprised someone as cute and handsome as him would become my frien- I mean partner.

"Hey Gray?" I ask hesitantly. "Are we, um, f-friends?.." God I hate how I stutter so much. But I'm dumbfounded by his looks.

He didn't respond.

"U-um, s-sorry for saying that suddenly. We just met so suddenly, I shouldn't have assum-"

"Of course we're friends!" He says smiling, giving me that cute wink.

I couldn't help but blush. I felt so weak and incompetent blushing, but I honestly couldn't help it. His voice is tranquil and smooth, almost like an Angels. I smiled and nodded my head. At first I thought he was going eat me alive, but he's so kind and sweet. But I doubt he's gay or likes me.. I hate being the son of a priest. Seeing that gay furs are thrown around and discriminated, it's distasteful and it aggravates me. If only my father wasn't a catholic, if only he didn't set me with a girl, if only I could live my life the way I want to instead of my father or God trying to control my life. I hated it all! Though, I haven't told him that I'm a priests son..A tear ran down my cheek.

"Hey, are you okay Cody?" I look up at Gray. He could tell something was wrong, I was going to tear. I needed a shoulder to cry on, I wanted to hold it in but I couldn't.

Just as I was about to put my head down and sob on my face, Gray grabbed me and pulled me towards him. I was shocked. I was going to ask him why he pulled me in but I couldn't, I just sobbed on his arm.

"There, there." He tells me, stroking the back of my head. "It'll be alright."

"Thanks for the comfort." I tell him.

"It's okay, that's what friends are for." He says smiling at me.

At that moment, I didn't care if he liked me or not, whether he was my boyfriend or friend, I couldn't help but smile. I was glad to have someone like Gray, I felt happy for the first time.

I smiled and thought, maybe today wasn't going to be as bad as I thought.

Maybe I can find my happiness..
