A Fur of a Present


_"Christmas alone,"_the reindeer sighed as he spread across the couch.

The Christmas tree was lit up in the corner of the room, the fireplace giving off a warm heat from the opposite side of the room. The curtains wide open, allowing a beautiful scene of snow falling on the winter's night from his apartment window.

The Christmas tree looked pretty Archie thought to himself. Rather a shame that there are no presents under it; sighing again at the thought of being alone.

Archie lays his head against a pillow of the arm rest as the sunset disappears, leaving the sky bright with stars.

He adjusts his position; not being quite as comfortable as he thought he'd be, his antlers knocking his cup o' hot chocolate off the side table, crashing to the floor.

He throws himself off the couch in shock, his hooves standing in the mess. Cursing quietly under his breath as he grabs paper towels, leaving a trail of hoof shaped hot chocolate marks upon the floor.

Archie finishes up with his mess, heading to his bedroom as he slips into something a little more comfortable. He slips off his shirt and trousers, proceeding to his briefs draw and pulling out a pair of black 'Bad Paws' briefs with a bright pink tiger pattern. He looks at his reflection in the mirror once he slips on his briefs. "Eh, could be worst," he muttered to himself, letting out a slight giggle.

Archie stood at a height of 5' 8, a height he couldn't be happier with. His fur was a dark brown that blended in with beige fur over his body. His chest and belly covered in white fur and his neck and scruff a fluffy white. His eyes were a golden brown, a feature he admired most.

Once comfortable, Archie returns to the lounge room and lays himself back on the couch; making sure he won't knock anything else over this time. The fire keeping him warm as he stares out the window, lost in thought.

Archie awoken for what seemed hours but only mere minutes of sleep to a dressed up group of furs singing Christmas Carols the next set of apartments down. He approaches the windowsill, resting against it as he listens to the tunes they sung. This lifted his Christmas spirits a little, feeling for a slight moment that everything felt right. He admired the snow as it fell, getting lost in another world of thought.

The brief moments of his dream like state were interrupted by thoughts of his family.

"Argh, I told myself I wouldn't let it affect me this year," he angrily thought to himself.

A tear rolls down his face; the memories of last year's events will not fading so easily. He sits back on the couch, grabbing out his personal journal; filled with entries that make him feel uneasy.

He opens to the first page, dated the 20th of November.

I am now officially Manager at 'Cup Fur You'. I could not have been happier, I now earn enough that I can move out of home soon. Maybe find myself a nice apartment, and today I got my usual visit from Beau. He was as attractive as ever, with a coat of pure white. He was well built, wearing that tight singlet and well fairly short-shorts, it was like he was teasing me. But, like usual I could not deter myself from those deep blue eyes. His smile was pretty perfect to, and for a big wolf like himself, he was a big softie. Definitely boyfriend material, but who am I kidding, he knows I'm gay as do most but I don't think he is; never showed otherwise.

Archie stared at his journal, feeling content for a minute. He continued on to the next page; 21st of November. His eyes sadden as he looks over the page; tear stained from when he wrote the journal entry. Doubt filled his mind as to if he should briefly re-live the past months experience. Tears filled his eyes and he reads the first few sentences aloud, "Today I went home, feeling like I had everything. But I was not happy, mostly everyone I knew, knew I was gay but my parents. So I decided to confront my parents about my sexuality. Oh how wrong I was, now I'm here with tears hitting the page after just arguing with the ones who I thought would support me and love me for who I am no matter what. I am happy with who I am but not who I have come from and as harsh as that is...

Wiping his eyes, he smiles. "If they can't support me like everyone else does and being my parents, then I do not need that in my life."

That will never change my unconditional love for them no matter he thought.

The fire roared with pleasant warmth as he fed the hungry fire with wood. The stars shining bright in the night sky, the street covered in snow and no sign of any spirited carol singers either. Just peace and quiet, calming Archie's overwhelmed mind.

The peace was interrupted by the ringing of Archie's phone.

"H-Hello" questioned a voice on the other end.

_"B-Beau is that you?"_Archie's eyes lit up cheerfully as he responded.

"Yeh, is it okay if I come over and all?" His voice sounded sad, "If not that is totally fine."

"No, of course it is fine, Beau. I'd love nothing more!"

"Th-thanks, I'll be there shortly," Beau replied.

Archie slaps his forehead at his reply, "I'd love nothing more, what am I thinking."

Archie impatiently waited, staring outside the window waiting for any sign of Beau. Still concerned with how sad he sounded over the phone, he couldn't await his arrival, especially on Christmas Eve which worried Archie.

Archie cleaned up around the place and fuelled the fireplace once again, making sure the place was well warmed up and presentable for his long awaited guest.

Minutes passed with still no sign of Beau. He knew that he would arrive and tried to keep his mind off of the time; so he headed to the kitchen and made two cups of hot cocoa and placed a couple of marshmallows in each.

He giggled to himself, "Everybody loves marshmallows."

There was a soft knock on the door which made his heart race. Not knowing what was going on he eagerly opened the door.

There stood Beau; as attractive as ever. Being instantly drawn to his eyes, he noticed a dark grey shadow beneath them, and he looked slightly depressed. All he was wearing was some trousers there were soaked from the snow and a t-shirt.

"C-come in, you must be freezing, Beau!" Archie dragged him in worryingly.

Beau blushes, looking over Archie. "Well I hope not as much as you look, Archie."

He looks down to discover he was only in his briefs and blushed, hiding his face.

"I'll be right back," he insisted embarrassingly.

He grabs a towel and a pair of his favourite pans and rushes back out, quickly remembering to grab the hot cocoa with marshmallows he had made. He heads into the lounge to find Beau sitting in front of the fire.

"H-here is a towel to dry yourself with and a pair of pants. I also made hot cocoa with marshmallows, just the way you like it."

Beau smiles and nods in acknowledgment, not hesitating to dry himself and stripping off his soaked pants.

Archie blushes as Beau freely changes in front of him, his cheeks a burning red noticing that Beau was keeping the pants off. Still having forgotten to put a pair on himself before, this made him feel a little more comfortable.

"So, I-Is everything okay?" Archie asked sincerely, sipping on his own hot cocoa.

"Well, no. I have something I want to tell you, it means a lot to me and I am hoping the same for you."

At this point Beau was standing in just briefs and a t-shirt. His white fur a tinge of orange from the fire and his eyes sparkled in the light; still as blue as ever.

Archie nods as he waits for Beau to continue.

"I haven't slept much the past couple days and as hard as it is to admit, I have been crying."

Archie's heart drops upon hearing this but before he could say anything, Beau hinted there was more to be said.

"This means a lot to me what I am about to say because I trust you most definitely."

"I had to get out of the house and as sad as it is being Christmas Eve and all, but I knew you would understand. My parents and I have had a fall out, the household has been tense and I have been barely acknowledged by my parents." He mumbled the last few words as his eyes tear up and his voice shaky.

Archie couldn't think of a reason why and really felt for him. Without thinking he moved in close to Beau and hugged him tightly. Feeling the droplets of tears hit his shoulder as Beau's emotions flow freely.

Beau returned the hug just as tightly, moving in closer to Archie. The moment lasted a full minute, Archie not wanting it to end, but curious as to why Beau was like this.

He looks deeps into Beau's eyes, Beau did so in return; Archie's heart racing.

Without warning Beau slowing leant in and kissed him deeply. Archie's body pulled in closer as Beau grips him gently and passionately. Their bodies pressed together, Archie returning the passionate kiss whilst gripping Beau's fur. Their lips locked onto each other's passionately, neither wanting the moment to cease.

The moment ceased, Beau looking deeply into his eyes, "I... I love you," Beau whispered as his cheeks blush. The words making his heart race, leaving himself blushing, as the words filling the empty space that left Beau without reason of his misfortune with his parents.

Archie didn't say anything, looking at Beau with such content and the courage it would have taken for him to reveal this.

He pulls Beau in close and hugs him lovingly. "I love you too," He replies.

Beau's eyes lit up as he returned the hug.

The evening passed by, and by this time Archie had grabbed a blanket while Beau laid on the couch, stripped down to just his briefs.

Beau opened his arms, making room for him as he lay down next to him, covering their bodies with the blanket. Beau's arm draped over Archie as he snuggles in close. Beau gently turned his head towards him as they spooned and kissed him passionately on the lips once again.

"Goodnight," Beau whispered as he draped his arm over him, cuddling him lovingly.

Best Christmas EVER Archie thought to himself.
