It was a rather slow afternoon at the club.

The main restaurant was quiet, only a few tables full of customers after the main lunch hour. C.J was helping Lance, one of the waiters, wipe down a few of the tables since he had been on his way through with nothing pressing of his own to do. The otter smiled at him gratefully, even going to far as to pat the young fox on the rump with a firm grip as he went by towards the back. C.J's ears flicked and he grinned, blushing slightly, but he had gotten used to the flirtatious nature of most of the staff here over the past month.

The front door opened and he looked up in time to see the owner and boss stroll in, the handsome wolf/husky hybrid giving him a bright smile and half-hug as he walked by. "Heya, kit," Auren rumbled softly, tussling the fox's headfur. "Already looking to move in on the wait staff too?"

"Nah, just been a slow day, so I thought I'd help out," C.J replied, smoothing his headfur back into place with a mock pout at his boss. "Already got the inventory done, and the bookings for the week." He shrugged, and the taller canid hummed in thought.

Auren scratched his chin as he headed over to the bar/lounge area, where Georgia was busy cleaning classes and bottles behind the wooden counter-top. "Funny, its like that all over town," he said, coming to lean against the wood surface as the busty equine greeted him with a nod. "Even driving back from Harborview was relatively quiet. Which is odd, since traffic is usually a nightmare at midday."

His bartender grunted as she put away the glass she was cleaning, picking up another one and resuming her cloth's polishing motions as if on automatic. "Eh, could be just the time of year. Summer is almost over, holidays begin popping up in a month or so, everyone going back to school and work." She shrugged, putting the second glass away and tossing her bar rag on the counter. "Speaking of, you still planning on giving those guest lectures at the Uni this semester again?"

Auren snorted, his shoulder shaking as he reigned in his laughter. "Oh come on, G...you know those are less 'lectures', and more 'helping the Sexual-Health department'," he grinned, making quotation marks with his hands. "Besides, Alice and Kerri were the ones that came up with the idea of doing the informational seminars. I just got invited along as an assistant. Well....me, Rex, Hayden...."

"Yeah, well, I know a few professors who enjoy you three helping educate their students on the multitude of 'non-traditional sex practices' that have crept up over the years," the equine said. "Certainly a lot better now than back when we were kids; all chance and rolling the dice."

The canine hybrid arched an eyebrow at her. "'When we were kids?' Jeez, Georgia, That was barely four years ago!.You make it sound like we're old," he said, sticking his tongue out in mock disgust. He froze then, as his own words registered in his mind, tilting his head to the side. "Huh...was that really only four years ago...?"

The barkeep nodded solemnly, "Yeah...that hit me this morning too." She shakes her head. "Crazy couple o' years, huh?"

Auren nodded, his ears splaying back for a moment, before returning upright. "I'll say. That reminds me, I should phone the boys..." he trails off, his paw dipping down to brush the smart-phone in his pocket. He shook his head lightly again. "Later. I keep forgetting what timezone they're in now, I don't want to phone them in the middle of the night."

"Psh...like it'd be the first time," the equine barkeep snorted. "Over protective D-"

"Hey!" the husky/wolf hybrid growled. "So I care, sue me."

Georgia smiled, and folded her arms. "Never said it was a bad thing, pup." Her smile widened, and her eyes lost the teasing edge, instead showing an almost...fondness to them. "It still surprises me how much you grew up in the last four years."

Auren felt his ears warm, and he flicked them self-consciously. "Yeah well...I had some help from you and rest of the crazy people we call friends," he retorted back gently. "Speaking off....when's the last time we all got together?" He pulled out his phone now and flicked to the calendar. "Gods...its about time, don't you think?"

"Hey, whoa whoa whoa..." the mare quickly reached forward and pushed his phone down, ignoring the strangled cry of protest. "Don't go jumping off on a tangent like you usually do; running around throwing together plans last minute and scrambling to get in touch with everyone. Remember next week is the city festival, and we're bound_to be swamped like we are every year." Her arms folded across her expansive chest. "And last year, _someone forgot to make sure we had enough staff on, leading himself to pick up the slack and run himself ragged....ring any bells?"

"Ugghhh...yeah, yeah," Auren huffed and put the phone back in his pocket. "Act like the boss, remember where we are, blah blah," he grumbled, pushing off the bar and heading towards the doors marked 'Employees Only'. "Jeez, you say I grew up these past few years, G...but you just got downright old and cranky."

He had to duck behind the door quickly to avoid the wet splat of the sopping bar rag aimed at his head.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

On the opposite side of the large former warehouse from the main restaurant, club and bar, the decor changed to a comfy hotel setting as Auren transitioned to the secondary part of the Howling Moon's property. Truth be told, they had actually merged two of the larger warehouses once the business had taken off, converting the second to the hotel and brothel part of the business, and leaving the first solely for food and entertainment. It was also here that the owner's office lay, above the two-storey hotel on its own third floor. Auren smiled warmly at Rei, the club's main receptionist as she typed away behind her desk in the main foyer. "Hey there, gorgeous. Keeping busy?" he said, leaning over her desk on his forearms.

The pretty lynx giggled softly, batting at his muscular arms as she blushed. "Oh, always, boss, you know that," she replied in her soft voice. "Oh, by the way," she jumped slightly, digging under a few folders before pulling out large envelope. "This came for you this morning. Your Dad dropped it off on his way to work. He says hello, by the way."

Auren nodded in thanks, and took the parcel, looking over the front curiously. It was addressed to him, but at his old home address on the north side - his parents' house. "Huh, odd," he murmured, looking over the graceful scrawl, feeling a sense of recognition that he couldn't place. "I haven't lived at home since before college," he said, voicing his thoughts aloud. "I wonder who..."

He trailed off as he turned the envelope over and slit the top with a claw, pulling out a few sheets of stationary, and saw the same handwriting fill the pages. As he read over the first few lines, his eyes widened in recognition, before narrowing in thought as he looked off to the side.

Rei watched his expression change as he read, not used to seeing her normally chipper and allof boss so pensive. "Is...everything okay?" his receptionist asked, worried.

The canid shook himself from his revere, and smiled back at her. "Oh...yeah, sorry, Rei," he said, stuffing the papers back in and tucking the whole thing under his arm. "Just wasn't expecting.....never mind," he said, waving his free hand and patting her computer. "Oh, before I forget, can you forward me the schedule for next week. I was...er...reminded about the festival and I want to make sure I didn't under staff us again," he smiled sheepishly.

"Er, yeah, sure," the young lynx said, clicking a few keys on her keyboard rapidly. "Its in your inbox."

"Thanks, you're the best." Auren smiled toothily, bringing his ears back up fully."Welp, I should leave you to it. I'll be upstairs if you need me!" With that, he turned and headed up the staircase towards the second floor and on to the third where his office lay, greeting several of his other employees along the way with casual paw-bumps or the occasional rump pat.

Finally reaching the third floor, he closed the heavy oak door behind him and sighed, resting against it for a moment. Auren padded across the large room to where his expansive desk lay, and dropped into his chair with a grunt, pushing aside his keyboard and pulled out the envelope Rei had given him. He pulled out the letter and regarded its contents once more, gently leaning back in his cushioned chair as he read the letter in its entirety. His tail flicked behind him slowly as his paw tapped the edge of his desk, lost in thought as he read.

Reaching the end of the page, he set the letter down and and stared off into space for a moment, letting the contents of the letter sink in. Turning back to his desk, he pulled a picture frame forward and tapped the digital screen, flicking through the stored images. The standard pictures of his family shifted aside to show a younger image of himself and a German Shepard, caught in the middle of a playful wrestling match by his mother. A small smile tugged at his muzzle, as he flicked through a few more, showing the pair of them standing with another group of similarly aged furs outside a large, old-fashioned looking building.

Setting the picture back on his desk, Auren pulled out his phone and typed in the number listed and the bottom of the letter. After a few rings, he heard the line pick up. "Hello?" a female voice answered, the gentle melodic tone it carried making Auren's frown disappear slightly, as his memories were jogged.

"Hello, Rachel Barnes?"

"Yes? Who may I ask is calling?" the female voice asked, the tone ever so slightly suspicious, no doubt from the unfamiliar number.

The canine smiled. "Its Auren. Auren Drakeson...from SeaCrest High? I got the letter you sent to my parents' house."

"Ohh, Auren!" the voice on the other end - Rachel - lit up and practically squealed in delight. "I was hoping it would get to you; sorry if I bothered your parents, but that was the last address we had for you."

"No no, no worries at all. I realize I kind of dropped off the map," the canine chuckled as he rested his forearms on the desk in front of him. "Anyways, I just wanted to call and RSVP to the reunion."

"That's terrific!" Rachel practically cheered on the other end. "We were hoping it wasn't too last minute for everyone. Gods knows how busy life gets - I only just got the weekend off myself." She paused a moment to recollect herself. "I hope you don't mind us taking the liberty of assigning you a room already. The hotel needed to know numbers, so we had to book ahead...."

"Not at all," Auren assured her. "In fact, I was going to thank you." He smiled at the slight noise of curious confusion from her. "It reminded me I haven't called him in a while, so this is the perfect excuse to do so."

He could head the apologetic tone in her words. "Yes, well...the hotel wasn't about to give us that many rooms, so we had to double people up in order to make it all work. We tried pairing people with whom they hung out with back in school, but...hopefully nothing has changed too much."

"Oh no, he and I haven't changed that much," Auren chuckled. "I think we can manage to get along for a weekend," he joked, even as the paw not holding his phone reached down and subtly adjusted himself. "Anyways...just wanted to confirm that I'll be there. Check-in is Friday at 5pm?"

"Yep!" Rachel chirped happily. "Can't wait to see you then! We have sooo much catching up to do!"

"You bet. Seeya then," Auren agreed, and they ended the call. He smiled to himself.Well, she sure sounds as bubbly as she was back then. He then flicked through his phone's contact menu and pulled up one of the favourited ones, pushing the screen to dial.

Only two rings passed before the line was picked up. "Agent Birch, speaking." The voice was clipped and neutral, indicating a very business-like demeanor. Auren smiled as he heard the familar voice, gruff as it was, and his tail wagged gently against the leather. He opened his muzzle to reply, then grinned toothily as a naughty thought crossed his mind.

"What underwear you got on, handsome?"

"The fu-" The voice on the other end choked slightly and coughed in shock. Auren could hear the swish of air over the speaker - no doubt the owner was pulling the phone away from their ear to check the caller id. Then... "Sonofabitch....Auren, you nearly made me choke on my bagel."

The husky hybrid burst out laughing, laying overtop his desk. "I'm sorry...I couldn't resist."

"Jackass."

"Ohh, you know you love me," the club owner giggled and recomposed himself. "How you been, Mike?"

A gentle sigh echoed from the other end of the line, but Auren could hear the smile on his face. "I'm doing good, Aur. How about you? Hows the club life?"

"Eh, never a dull moment," Auren shrugged, leaning back in his chair with a warm smile on his own muzzle. "Sorry to bug ya at work, but did you happen to get a letter from Rachel Barnes lately?"

"Oh!" there was a shuffling sound over the phone, and Auren could hear a paper being retrieved. "Yeah! Just got it yesterday, I meant to phone you but caught buried in finishing a case." The unmistakable tapping of a tail wagging against something could be heard over the connection. "Looks like we're rooming together, huh?" came an amorous and playful growl.

"Damn right," Auren rumbled back. He eyes looked back towards the picture frame on his desk. "I've missed you, dude. I'm sorry we haven't gotten together lately."

"Naw, no blame to be had, man," the Shepard said quickly. "Things happen, life piles up, we both know how it is." There was a slight pause as the pair of canids smiled at each other, separated by cyberspace and phone lines as they were. "I'm really happy to be able to see you this weekend."

"Me too, Mike. We have lots to catch up on."

"Ohh yes, and then some," came another, amorous growl. Then, in the background, another muffled voice spoke, and Auren could hear his friend sigh. "Hey, I gotta head into a brief. I'll call you tonight, kay?"

"Yeah, of course. Be safe out there."

"I will," the Shepard rumbled warmly. "I'll talk to you soon." There was a slight pause. "Oh...and, the red ones."

Auren tilted an ear for a moment, then it dawned on him and he grinned wolfishly. "Mmff....those still fit?"

"Use your imagination."

"Already am," Auren growled, tilting the phone down so his friend could hear the unzipping of his pants clearly. The laughter was loud and clear on the other end, and made his own smile wider. "I'll be thinking about that all day now."

"Good," the canid on the line rumbled affectionately. "I'll be thinking of you too. Bye~"

"Bye~" Auren echoed, and the call ended. He sighed and leaned back in his chair, idly rubbing at the now pronounced bulge in his pants that the sound of Mike's voice had brought up. The canine smiled to himself, eyes half-lidded as he let his mind bring up old, cherished memories. He hummed to himself softly, only coming back to focus when he felt a warm, sticky sensation on his paw. He looked down, to see his fully hard erection poking up through the open fly of his pants, having been slowly stroking himself as he reminisced. His deep red, tapered cock rested across his abdomen, pulsing gently against his blue shirt, making him sigh in amusement at himself.

"Later," he said down to his eager dick, pulling himself back up straight and turning his attention to his computer, but not bothering to put himself away. After all, the way things went at the club, it was almost pointless to do his pants back up, he mused. He checked the clock on his desktop, and mentally bet himself he'd be out of his pants for one reason or another by lunch time.

He reached for the keyboard to being working on next week's schedule...but then paused and grabbed his phone once more. Leaning back, he angled for the perfect shot and snapped a picture, quickly sending it off to the same number he had just dialled with a little message. Then, with a grin on his face, he set to work on the computer, letting his tail wag happily behind him.

'Like I said...thinking of you <3'

The drive from the coastal city inland towards the mountains was pleasant, and Auren enjoyed the changing scenery as it whisked by the windscreen of the car. He glanced over at the digital screen on his dashboard to double-check the GPS, and noted he was rapidly approaching the hotel he had marked out that day. The mountain-side resort that the reunion committee had picked out and rented was a just into the mountain range that dominated the center of the state, and was certainly a change from the urban scenery the canine had become so accustomed to. The vibrant greens, browns and whites of the mountain forest made his tail wag gently across the leather seat of the car, and Auren was reminded of how long it had been since he had been out this way.

After another 10 minutes, the black two-door rumbled deeply up the gently sloping main entry of the resort, sliding smoothly into a nearby parking spot. Stepping out of the car, Auren arched his back and stretched expansively, groaning into the crisp air as he worked out a few kinks from having sat so long. He retrieved his modest bag from the trunk and locked the car with a chirp from his remote, before striding up to the reception area. Inside, the hotel/resort was decorated like a warm, homey-feeling log cabin, including a large fireplace in the middle of an expansive main lounge area. There were already a fair number of guests milling about, and the canine briefly looked around to see if he recognized any old, familiar faces among the guests. He had just reached the check-in counter when a voice trilled behind him. "Auren! About time you got here!"

Spinning around, the tall hybrid let out a surprised grunt as a smaller figure glomped him around the middle and hugged him tight. He looked down to see a lean, but fit black and grey calico squeezing him tightly, and his large arms quickly encircled her as well. "Kerri! Heeeyy!"

Giggling, the feline pulled back and tilted her head up to kiss the larger canine on the cheek. She stepped back and held him at an arm's length, looking up and down his frame. "Well, look at you, pup! Damn...you are really filling out! You're gonna put the old football team to shame," she purred, letting her paws trace from his shoulders down his thick biceps, giving a playful growl.

Auren chuckled, patting her shoulder gently, before letting go. "And you haven't aged a day, Ms. Head of the Department," he smiled. Kerri batted at his chest, rolling her eyes, but her own smile was just as wide. "So, where's your better half? She manage to get here as well?"

Kerri's ears flicked momentarily, before she shook her head. "No, sadly Alice couldn't make it. We were already getting set up for the new semester when I got the reunion letter in the mail. It was a little short notice for both of us to up and take the weekend, so she volunteered to stay behind while I came up."

"Aww, I'm sorry to hear that. I was hoping to at least say hi," Auren said, his triangular ears flopping over slightly. "But you two are doing well?"

"Mmhm!" the bubbly feline nodded, her long tail gently curling back and forth upright behind her. "Maybe not quiiite as well as the big successful club owners," she said, prodding his chest in a teasing manner. "But yeah, things are good." Her smile twitched for a moment, as she rested the paw that had poked his chest atop his firm pectorals. "Okay, wow, you really have filled out since last I saw you." Kerri said, one groomed eyebrow raised slightly.

Auren smirked and gently lifted her paw from his chest, even though his fluffy tail wagged behind him. "Now now, don't go giving me that look. You _know_what I do for a living," he said rolling his eyes in a playful manner.

The cat's gaze was firm, and her tail flicked a bit more animatedly behind her. "Auren, I saw you only a few months ago and you've put on at least ten pounds since then." Her eyes briefly flicked down his torso to his belt-line, then back up. The suspicion in her eyes made him wince, and he sighed.

"Ker, I see that look and its not like that," he rumbled gently, placing a paw on his hip with an exasperated tone. She looked unconvinced, and he sighed, rubbing his free paw down his face. "We had a retirement party last month for our oldest employee, and he....well, let's just say he gave a few parting gifts of his own," the canine said, his voice dropping a few notches in volume.

Kerri still looked slightly unconvinced, but a gentle cough from their left made both furs turn. The receptionist smiled politely, and Auren folded his ears back with an apologetic smile. He quickly checked in and received his room key, before picking up his bag and heading away from the desk, the monochrome feline close by his shoulder as they headed into the wide open lounge area. A brief glance down his shoulder saw the unsure look on her face, and he sighed again. "Kerri, you know it's not like that anymore. I'm not like that anymore." He set his bag down on a wide couch and took a seat, as she slid down next to him without prompting. "Everything I do is strictly business related."

The feline looked him over for a moment, her amber eyes taking in his expression carefully. "Alright," she said after a long pause. "If you say it was honestly and freely given, I'll believe you." She reached over and patted his wrist, and he took her paw in his without hesitation. "Its just...hard not to think about it, y'know?" she said, looking down and off to the side a bit. "We educate and we mentor, we give kids as much knowledge and such as we can, but it's still hard to forget what we went through. _Why_we do what we do."

Auren rumbled softly, giving her hand a squeeze. "Believe me, I know. And I promise you, I'm okay." He shook their joined hands gently. "I know after Gerrard I...changed. But you guys helped me from going down that same path." He smiled at her, his teeth glinting in the firelight as he gave her one of his best smiles. "I'm okay. Its all okay," he repeated.

Kerri patted the back of his hand with her free one. "Alright, big guy," she said, returning her smile. "I trust you. Just know Alice and I are always available to talk if needed."

"I appreciate it," Auren nodded. He let go of her paw and raised his arms over his head, stretching once more. "Nngh...well, I'm going to go drop my stuff of in my room, and maybe take a walk around. Drive up here was nice, but I need to move around." The feline smiled and waved him off as he stood, and he bent down to kiss her cheek lightly, before grabbing his bag and heading off down one of the large hallways leading to the guest rooms.

It wasn't more than a few minutes later when he came to the door matching the number of his keycard, and the canine swiftly unlocked in and stepped inside. The room was rather large, but not overly so, being that the committee for the reunion opted for the mid-range rooms in order to make the weekend feel a little more like a holiday. Auren looked over the small entertainment unit with the TV on it, as well as the small fridge underneath. There was a desk table next to it with one chair, resting between the TV stand at the large patio door that lead out into the resort's outdoor pool and recreational area. The bathroom to his right was again modestly sized; a tub/shower combo across from the wide sink and toilet area. The wolf-husky hybrid was about to toss his bag onto one of the matching queen beds, when he finally realized there was someone else in the room.

There was a brief flash of brown and black fur, before Auren wrapped his arms around the figure, even as a pair of tightly muscled arms were gripping him right back. The two held each other for a long moment, Auren letting his nose press into the thick fur at the other person's neck and taking in the familiar scent. "Fuck...I missed you."

"I missed you too, stud," came the warm, masculine voice as they pulled back, even as they continued to hold one another close. Auren looked into the smiling face of the German Shepard, as their tails wagged happily behind them both. Mike's eyes dipped down from the hybrid's face briefly, before coming back up to meet his, gently rubbing his paw along his friend's flank. "You look good."

"So do you, Agent," Auren rumbled happily, leaning in to bump noses. The Shepard laughed, pressing into the contact as their muzzles rubbed against one another. "How long have you been here?"

"'Bout an hour," Mike said, shrugging lightly. The two canids moved over to the bed, still in contact with each other as they sat. "You run into Kerri yet?"

Auren nodded. "Yeah, just saw her as I checked in. Shame about Alice though."

"Yeah...I know how she feels. Ash was pretty bummed about not being able to make it," the tan and black male sighed. He saw Auren's crestfallen expression, and bumped their shoulders together. "Hey, not all of us can just take off whenever they want, Mr "Owns His Own Club"."

Auren snorted, playfully shoving the other canine. "Oh please, Georgia is just as much the owner as I am. Hell...sometimes I think she actually_does_ more around there than I do."

"Well, that's not surprising," Mike said, waggling his eyebrows. "You're probably too busy playing with the customers and staff most nights, eh?" he teases, digging his elbow into the hybrid's side jovially.

"Oh come on...do you really think I'm that bad?" Auren said with a mock offended look on his face.

"Dude...you nearly missed a mid-term in college because you and Todd were 'exercising' all over the fitness center," the Shepard grinned widely, his tail thumping the bed behind them. "And even when you managed to show up for the test, it was _plainly_obvious what you had been doing."

Auren felt the insides of his ears go hot, and he growled defensively. "Oh like you were any better. Hell, we nearly had to soundproof the frat rooms because you and Ash were so loud some nights."

Mike shrugged innocently. "My Dalmatian was vocal, what can I say?"

"It wasn't just hm, dude..."

They stared at each other for a moment, before bursting into a giggles like a pair of school children. Auren pulled the Shepard close to his chest, holding him with arms around Mike's abdomen as they laughed. "Ohhh....man, those were some good times," he rumbled, gently tracing the dog's firm lines of muscle under his simple grey shirt. Mike hummed in agreement, leaning back to rest his head in the crook of Auren's neck. The sat there for a moment, just enjoying the physical contact - contact they hadn't had for a long time. Most other former highschool classmates might be surprised at the open affection between the two, but it was a bond that had been forged over many years, and only tempered after their time in college.

Mike's large ears twitched briefly, even as Auren nuzzled the side of his neck. "Oh, speaking of good times," he said after a few moments of relaxing in his friend's embrace. A soft 'hmm?' rumbled against his back, and he took it as acknowledgement to continue. "You think you'll be able to get some time off this fall?"

"Probably, why?" Auren said, turning his head slightly as his nose pressed into Mike's cheek, so he could better look at the Shep. Mike didn't answer for a moment, and the grey and white husky hybrid was about to ask again, when movement caught his eye. He looked forward and saw Mike's left paw raised up, a distinct gold band around one of his smaller fingers. "No....shit...." Auren gasped, as he realized what it was.

"Yep.

"Serious?!" Auren yipped, squeezing Mike firmly enough the Shepard actually let out a wheeze. "When? Who? How?"

"L-lemme breathe, you dick, and I'll tell you," Mike huffed, laughing. He felt Auren loosen his grip and he half-turned against the slightly larger canine's chest. "Damn, you got strong." he chuckled. "Anyways....yeah. He popped the question a few weeks ago over dinner." His smile was blinding, and his tail tapped against Auren's thigh rapidly. "Caught me completely off guard, the bastard."

Auren took the paw in question in his own, bringing it up close to his nose so he could see the ring better. "Fuck, Mike...this is awesome," he said, his own tail wagging just as hard. "I am so happy for you guys. G and I were wondering how much longer it was going to be."

Giving another soft chuckle, Mike wriggled his paw free of Auren's grip, and rested it on the hybrid's firm chest. "Yeah...still makes me stop and think every now and then. But anyways, back to the question at hand," he said, raising an eyebrow slightly. "Can you-"

"Of course!" Auren barked, grabbing the Shepard in another firm hug. "You honestly think I'd miss it? Hell, once I tell Georgia, she'll practically force us out the door!" He chuckled, pressing their foreheads together as they embraced tightly. "Congrats, man. I'm friggin buzzing over this right now."

Mike rumbled back just as warmly, keeping the contact between them. Their muzzles brushed lightly, and he rubbed his against Auren's softly. There was a brief hesitation, then the Shepard gently pressed his lips to that of his friend, and was welcomed in with a tender kiss. Auren's paws slid down from his shoulders to his lower back, and Mike's looped around the slightly taller hybrid's neck, deepening the kiss as their tongues curled against each other. Mike lay over Auren's chest as they laid back on the bed, tenderly exploring each others muzzle after what felt like ages. Finally, he pulled back ever so slightly, keeping his nose pressed that of his friend. "Mmff...damn...I _did_miss this," he said softly.

"Heh, you sure your fiance won't be mad about you making out with your old benefriend?" Auren teasing lightly, nipping at the tan-and-black dog's chin.

"Pfft, please," Mike snorted, his chest vibrating with laughter. "He would have had his tongue in your throat soon as the door closed." The pair of canines chuckled.

Auren smiled. "Yeah...good point." He slowly rubbed up and down Mike's back, drifting down towards his firm rump now and then. The Shepard rested his head in the crook of Auren's neck as they lay together, relishing the contact after having not seen each other for so long. "So..." Auren said after a few minutes of cuddling. "Threesome for your bachelor party?"

Mike snorted again, lifting his head up and staring down at his dearest friend. "How would that be any different than the several we're going to have between that, the wedding, and the honeymoon?"

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

An hour or so later, both canids were changed into more casual wear and were sitting in the lounge enjoying a few drinks as they caught up with one another. They had met a few other faces from their old high school class, including Kerri, but now it was just the two of them sitting next to each other on one of the large, leather couches that faced out into the mountain scenery near the back of the main building.

"No, no really...he's a great assistant," Auren was saying, ignoring the playful jabs of the Shepard next to him. "He's great with the bookkeeping, and even manages to organize my schedule better than me." He sipped his lemonade briefly. "Not to mention how many nice reviews I've gotten from his working in the restaurant."

"Uh huh," Mike said with a knowing leer. "And just what kind of...review...did you give him when you hired him?" The sheepish grin on his friend's face as all he needed to see, and he howled with laughter. "Hah! Friggin horn dog," he giggled, bumping their shoulders together lightly. His paw rested on Auren's thigh momentarily, giving a squeeze before dropping away. Despite their own reunion back in their shared room, out here among the rest of the guests and former school-mates, the pair of canines were careful not to be too affectionate. "So..." Mike said after a moment's pause. "Take him home on your arm or..." he trailed off, a knowing grin on his muzzle.

Auren sighed, before patting his groin, and the Shepard laughed deeply again.

Mike set his drink down on the small, low table in front of their couch, and pulling one of his legs up under himself as he half-turned to face his friend. "Speaking of which," he said in lower voice. His eyes drifted down to Auren's groin once more, before tracing their way back up his abdomen and torso. "You're, ah, a little bigger than I remember." His muzzle still held his smile, but one quick glance was all Auren needed to see the slight question in the German Shepard's warm brown eyes.

"Don't you start too," the hybrid rumbled. "Like I told Kerri, its not like that." He leaned over and gave Mike the short version of the retirement party they had for Bradford last month. He noted with some satisfaction the growing bulge in Mike's pants, which the Shepard quickly adjusted with a grin, but Auren finished the recounting of the encounter. "So, it was his choice," Auren shrugged, sitting back slightly. "I told her, and I'll tell you; I'm okay. Even my 'interview' with my little fox - its all kept strictly business now."

"I know, and I trust you, Aur," Mike said, using the nickname from when they were younger. He reached out and held Auren's shoulder firmly, his thumb caressing the thick muscle there. "Its just...you worried us for a bit back in college after, well..."

Auren sighed, and reached up to put his paw over Mike's, giving it a soft squeeze. "Yeah, but I had you guys. You and the others kept me from going over the edge, and I haven't come close since." His green eyes crinkled at the corners as he smiled. "You have no idea how much I ow-"

"Well well, lookie here, boys," a deep rumble boomed from in front of them, making both canines jump and turn to face the source. "Was wondering if you two nerds had showed up or not." Standing in front of them was large grizzly bear, his beefy arms crossed over his thick chest. The imposing former captain of the football team stood on the other side of the coffee table from Auren and Mike, looking down his short muzzle at the pair. Back in highschool, the bear had been a well-built tank for the defensive line, and always cut a wide swath through the hallways as well both with his figure at his attitude. Now though, the layers of fat had covered the once rock hard midsection of the ursine, evidence that his football days were long behind him.

Beside him, a short and stocky cougar chuckled, but stayed silent. His ropy tail twitching behind him. He was shorter than the bear by a full head, probably more, but his frame carried his thickset built decently well. Like the bear though, it was clear life after highschool had been less than active, as the slight paunch of a belly hung over his jeans.

At the bear's left shoulder, stood a large stallion, and Auren let his eyes briefly flicker up and down the tall equine's frame. Unlike the grizzly and cougar, the former cornerback's frame was still as muscular and fit as it ever was - probably even moreso given the years since highschool. His thick thighs were barely contained in his casual slacks, and the tight green t-shirt hugged his chisled torso, leaving very little to the imagination, especially against his midnight-black fur. Auren actually felt his sheath stir a bit at the sight of those pronounced pecs straining the fabric, not to mention the outline of those abs. However, where the bear and cougar were regarding them with slightly more than begrudging, feigned friendliness, the stallion's grey-blue eyes were much warmer, and he smiled softly at the two canines, giving them small nod.

"Calvin," Auren greeted the ursine, though his tone was decidedly less warm than what it had just been. "Good to see you," he offered politely, though the slight cant of his ears belied otherwise.

"Drakeson," the bear grumbled in his gravelly tone, giving the mono canine a dismissive nod. "Birch," he said, tipping his thick jowls to Mike, before refocusing back on the monochrome hybrid. "Talk around the old group is you got yourself some kinda club downtown now," he said, jerking his head back towards a larger group of people at the other end of the lounge when he said 'group'. "Is that so?"

"Yeah, I do indeed," Auren said casually, even though he sat a little straighter on the couch. He folded his own arms over his chest, noting to himself how Calvin's eyes darted down over his large arms and firm torso with a slight hint of jealousy. "She's called the_Howling Moon;_ heard of it?"

"Wait...you_own the _Moon?" the stallion spoke up, his rich, warm voice a far cry from the gravelly rasp of the bear. He slipped around the grizzly - ignoring the frown that appeared on his brown muzzle - and leaned in a bit, resting a hand on the far couch arm on by Mike. "Dude...that place is amazing!"

"Thanks," Auren's cool tone defrosted lightly as he smiled at the stallion, ears cupping forward. "You been there?"

The stallion nodded rapidly. "Hell yeah! The boys and I head there almost every Friday after practices are done for the week," he said, grinning. Behind him, his tail flicked back and forth, brushing over the leather of the couch. "I would have never guess you were behind it, Auren."

The canine opened his muzzle to reply, when Calvin grunted an interruption. "I heard some things," he said in his rough tone. "Some of it sounds like bull, but meh." He waved a meaty paw dismissively. "Honestly thought you two would be working some office job or something else as boring. You guys weren't exactly the most outgoing or interesting back in the day."

"Pft, hardly," Auren growled, his hackles rising slightly. He saw the look of bored disinterest on the bear's face, and it made him think back to the smug bugger's attitude all through highschool. "Mike here works with the Feds," he said bluntly.

_That_got a reaction. "Wha...no way!" the cougar moaned in his slightly nasal voice.

"Aur," the named German Shepard smirked, leaning back on the couch, his shoulder against Auren's but no one seemed to notice. "Come now, this isn't a contest." His eyes said otherwise as his tail twitched behind him.

"Dude, that's impressive!" the stallion said as he leaned in closer, sitting on the edge of the couch near the canines. He gripped Mike's paw in his own large hand and shook it firmly.

"Heh, thanks."

"Yeah...well," Calvin interrupted loudly. "We should probably go see if the rest of the team is here yet." His scowl deepened on his thick brow as he turned away from the two smugly grinning canines. "Might as well catch up with some of the guys" He lumbered off without a second glance, the cougar in tow.

The stallion hesitated, before standing up. "I, er, should probably go say hi as well." He looked down at the wolf-husky hybrid once more, his soft smile returning. He glanced over at Mike, giving him a frendly nod, before his eyes met back into Auren's own green. "It's really good seeing you, Auren," he said warmly. "Maybe...we can catch up? Y'know, later?"

"Yeah," Auren said again. "I'd like that." Unlike talking to the bear, his voice was genuine, as was the expression on his face. "Good to see you, Zach." He nodded at the stallion as the larger male turned and headed resignedly back towards the larger group, watching his muscular form move under his clothes. He didn't realize he was staring until a light cough came from beside him. He blinked, and refocused back on Mike's grinning face. "Huh?"

"Dude," the Shepard growled lightly, leaning in with a smile growing on his muzzle. His finger wiggled between Auren and the retreating back of the large stallion. "What was that about just now?"

"What? I can't say hi to Zach at our reunion?" the husky hybrid grunted, his fur ruffled a bit.

Mike shook his head. "Uh uh...don't bullshit me. I know you too well for that," his teasing growl deepened, and he shuffled in close. "Calvin and whatshisname I get, I'm not exactly thrilled to see them either." He waved a paw in front of his muzzle as if waving away a fly. "But I noticed the way your eyes lit up when Zach started talking to you, and gushed about the club." His tail tapped the side of the leather couch. "And it wasn't just because he was complimenting your work..."

"Wha-"

"I_saw_ that look, Aur," Mike rumbled, cutting off the retort. "I'm a detective, remember? I'm good a reading people, and you my dear friend, I can read like a book." He looked over Auren's slightly embarrassed face, as his mind worked. "You two hung out a bit back in the day, didn't you? Weren't you his tutor for a subject or two?" He tapped his chin in thought as his mind wandered.

"Well, yeah," Auren mumbled. "What has that got to do with anything?"

"In fact...you two were pretty chummy all senior year_._We never really associated with the jocks and their group in school, but you and Zach started hanging out that year when we came back from the summer, even after his buddies gave him guff over spending time with 'us geeks'," Mike continued to read over his features, making the husky hybrid squirm in his seat a bit. The way Auren's ears were back, tinted red, and how his eyes refused to meet that of his friend. Finally, the Shepard's eyes lit up and he grinned widely. "Bull. Shit."

"Mike..."

"You did!" the tan-and-black dog giggled like school girl. He quickly glanced around to make sure no one was within earshot. "Details.Now."

"Dude, its not like that..."

"Auren," the Shepard growled. "I know_you. I _know that look; its the same one you gave Todd in college right before you two started dating." He poked his friend in the chest firmly, but not enough to hurt. "He was giving you the same eyes. Now, spill it."

Auren sighed heavily, flopping back in the couch and running his paw over his face. "Its...not what you think," he grunted. "We weren't, y'know, together or anything."

"Clearly. That would have been all over school. So....?"

Growling, Auren met his friend's curious and playful gaze. After glaring for a moment, the monochrome canine relented. "I started tutoring him the summer after junior year. We met up a few times, going over stuff to help him to get ready for senior year." He sighed again, folding his arms over his chest as he stared out the window. "We...started talking when we weren't working on school stuff, and we ended up really connecting. He wasn't like all the other dumb jocks; the dude was actually pretty smart. He even was into a bunch of table tops and games, but didn't think anyone would go for 'the football guy' hanging out in the A/V club." Auren shook his head, grumbling about the old stereotypical atmosphere of highschool

"Anyways, the more we hung out, the more he opened up," the canine continued, his friend leaning in to soak up the details. "We started having deeper conversations, and talking about personal and random stuff, and I got to see a side of him he didn't really advertise. I started seeing him as more than just 'Zach the football jock'." Auren's gaze was lost off in the mountain scenery beyond the window as he reminisced. "One day, he asked me if I was gay."

"Just like that?" Mike asked, his ears cupping forward.

Shrugging a shoulder, Auren went on. "Wasn't like, accusing me or anything. He honestly just asked." Another shrug. "I told him I was, and he asked how I knew. I said to him I just realized I wasn't into girls like others were, and that I found myself more attracted to guys. No really big secret formula to it."

"And..." the Shepard leaned in, engrossed in the story.

"He told me he wasn't sure about girls either," Auren smile gently. "He dated a few, and it was nice, but he said there was 'nothing special'. He liked hanging out with his buddies more, said it made him happier." The canine chuckled, letting his head fall back as he closed his eyes. "He asked if that made him gay, and I said 'Not exactly. Do you find the girls attractive?' He shrugged and said 'Not really.' So I asked him if he liked looking at guys more, and he just shrugged again. 'I don't pop a boner in the showers, if that's what your asking.'"

"Gods, that such a jock thing to say..."

"Hey, you wanna hear the story, or not?"

"Sorry."

Auren smirked and continued. "I told him I didn't mean it like that; more if he found guys in general attractive. He said 'I dunno...some guys are cute, I guess. Like you.' At first, I didn't really register what he said, but then I asked him to say it again. He just looks at me and says, 'You're cute, and I like being around you.'" Auren shook his head, smiling. "Gotta admit, he took me by surprise. Anyways, we kept talking and one thing led to another..." he trailed off, his grin slowly growing wider.

"And?" Mike practically shook him with anticipation.

"I sucked him off," Auren said, a blush tinting his cheeks. "We started casually messing around then. Nothing major; just jerking him off or giving him some head now and then. Lasted for most of senior year," the canine snickered.

"So, is he? Gay I mean?" Mike said, ears fully cupped.

Auren shrugged. "He never did say whether he was or not, but then again, I never really asked." The husky hybrid smiled at the memories. "We became really good friends - fun aside. In the end, that's all that really mattered between us."

"Dayum..." the Shep sighed, leaning back and chuckling. "You never told me I were swallowing the biggest stud in school. Though I guess that explains all the times you had to duck out of our plans, heh."

"What, and make you jealous?" Auren teased back, jabbing the tan-and-black canine in the ribs. "You know I still loved all the stuff with you too, hun."

Mike chuckled, leaning in and giving the other canine a quick kiss on the cheek. "I know, I'm just teasing. But damn...Zach. Sooo....were the rumors true?" he said, waggling his eyebrows. Auren just growled playfully, and that was all the answer he needed.

Later that night, the two canines were back in their shared room, after the evening's activities had wound down. The big 'meet-and-greet' dinner had actually been pretty fun; learning what all their old classmates had been up to in the years since graduating highschool. Auren and Mike had naturally sat next to each other, but both were pleasantly surprised when Zach had sat across from them, despite most of the old football crowd being at the other end. The stallion had happily engaged the two in conversation about what the three had been doing over the years, and all three had shared quite a few laughs going over one anothers tales.

Now though, the hotel had grown mostly quiet as many guests retired for the night, and the moonlight gently trickled in from the patio doors, half covered as they were by the large curtains. Auren lay on his back looking at the ceiling, a small smile on his muzzle as he thought about all the old memories seeing his former school-mates had brought up.

"Aur? You still up?" came a soft voice from next to him, pulling him from his thoughts. He turned his head slightly to see Mike looking at him through the dark, the Shepard naturally opting to share a bed with his best friend rather than take the other.

Auren simply nodded, rolling onto his side so they could talk face to face. "Mm...just thinking."

"About...?"

"Just...old times," he smiled. "High school, college...some times it feels like forever ago."

Mike nodded, shuffling a bit closer under the covers, until their bare legs brushed against one another. "Yeah. Today's really driven home how much I've missed spending time with you," he said, his tone soft and apologetic. "I know we said we'd keep in touch, but..."

Auren rumbled and leaned into cut his friend's words off by bumping their noses together. "Hey, its not like we're fifty and looking towards retirement," he chuckled. "Yeah, we've been busy the past year or two, but we're back together now, aren't we?"

"Heh...you're right," the tan-and-black dog smiled, nuzzling against the husky hybrid's muzzle. "We can pick up where we left off, and make up for lost time."

Auren hummed and nodded, settling back into his pillow. It surprised him how just one afternoon back with Mike was like a week-long vacation for the soul. He truly had missed the Shepard; they had rarely been separated since they were pups. Growing up and going out in the world was truly scary at times, which made him all the more happy to keep those closest to him within arms reach. Auren was staring off into space a bit when he felt something gently graze his upper thigh, and he flicked and ear as he refocused back on the smiling Shep next to him, raising an eyebrow.

"What?" Mike rumbled softly. "I mentioned making up for lost time, didn't I?" True to his words, the slowly grazing paw drifted higher, slipping inwards until Auren felt the bottom of his furred sac being teased. "Heh...you still sleep in the nude, I see."

The husky hybrid snorted lightly, sliding his own paw over and unobtrusively sliding down Mike's abdomen till he felt the warm, furred tube of the Shepard's own sheath. "You're one to talk," he chuckled. He felt the had on his balls begin to cup and gently caress the heavy orbs, so his own paw gave the tan-and-black dog's sheath a firm but soft squeeze. "Trying to insinuate something, Sheppie?"

Mike shrugged, slowly rolling Auren's balls around in his paw. He opened his grinning muzzle to speak, then paused with a look of surprise. Without asking, he tugged the covers and sheets down to reveal both their nude frames, and leaned in to examine what his paws had found. "Dude...you really _re_bigger than I remember."

"Did you already forget what I told you about Bradford's retirement party?" the monochrome canine rumbled deep in his chest. He rolled onto his back slightly as Mike's exploration of his groin continued, letting the moonlight fall across their bare frames. His thick sheath and heavy balls were highlighted in the pale light, giving Mike a good look as the furred tube plumped up slightly, the tip of his thick shaft beginning to poke free.

Meanwhile, the German Shepard's paw continued to examine the larger-than-average testicles of his friend, noting just how heavy and dense they felt. "Noo....but I thought you said afterwards everything would revert back to normal?" He hefted one orb gently, resting the naval orange sized shape in his palm. "You definitely got more here than before."

Auren shrugged, gently rubbing his own paw up and down Mike's side tenderly. "Blame the bull," he grunted lightly. "He's the one that started the transfer before I knew what he was up to. Not surprised There was a bit of permanent gain." His sheath throbbed slowly from the constant attention, his thick red shaft starting to protrude more as it inched out, laying across his firm abdomen.

Mike let out a soft chuckle and whistle of appreciation. "I mean, you_had_become quite the stud after our exploits in college, hun. Especially given how you and I started out," he grinned, his white teeth glinting in the moonlight in contrast to his dark muzzle. "But now, this is just impressive."

"Mm...not just for show either," Auren said, waggling his eyebrows in the dark playfully. His tail swished against the mattress at his friend's compliment and constant attention to his groin, several inches of his thick cock already resting against his abs. Looking down he could see Mike growing from his sheath as well, and it was clear from the rising pheromones in the room both canids had the same thing on their mind.

"Yeah...?" Mike chuckled lowly, letting the heavy orb fall back between his friend's legs as he slid his paw up stroke over the emerging hybrid's cock. "Leave people a little heavier now, do ya?"

"Let's just say, more than one round and most people need to find looser clothing," the husky cross giggled.

"Oh yeah?" the Shepard growled lustfully, sliding over to straddle Auren's thighs. He leaned over to bring their slowly growing erections together, stroking them with his paw just barely able to fit around their combined girth. A pair of rumbling sighs echoed through the room as both canines shifted and ground their hips together, relishing in the heated friction growing between them. It wasn't long before both of them were fully erect and throbbing, Mike's own ten-inch doggy shaft pulsing eagerly. The pinkish-red flesh was a stark contrast to his black furred belly, giving Auren no difficulty in seeing the nearly soda-can thick member throb with need. The Shepard however, had his eyes glued to his friend's cock as it jutted out from his sheath, deeper red in color than his own. Auren had at least a two inches on him, if not a bit more, but was just a hair thinner around the middle than his own thick meat. "Damn stud..." he grunted in a whisper as his paw stroked the pair of pulsing rockets. "You finally passed the footlong mark, huh?"

"Mm-hhmmm..."Auren murmured, arching his hips lightly as that paw stroked over his exposed flesh. His paws gripped Mike's thighs gently, even though his claws poked against his skin a bit. "You still got that girth though," he growled with a grin.

Mike nodded, and lifted himself up a bit before sliding forward, making Auren shudder as the husky hybrid's cock dragged across his own plump balls, before gliding up the Shepard's taint and sliding between his firm ass cheeks. "Ayeup...I can't wait to stretch you around it," he chuckled. "But for tonight..." he trailed off, reaching back to stroke the heavy twelve-and-a-half-inch monster hotdogging his backside. "I'm curious to see what some bull-enhanced wusky can do~"

Auren bit his lower lip slightly, despite his eager grin. He could feel his large tip sliding between the hard buns of Mike's well-toned ass, grazing the hidden ring of muscle each time. "You sure?" he asked, even as he shuffled a bit lower on the bed, so as to better position the pair of them."You know I'm fine with bottoming if its too much."

"Pssh...I lived with Ash since college, stud," Mike retorted, though not unkindly. "Not to hurt your ego, but you remember what our Dal is packing, right?" He let out a soft grunt as Auren's tip kissed his entrance once more, and felt a splash of warm precum jet against his hole. "N-not that this won't be enjoyable..." he admitted. The pair ground their hips together slowly for a few moments, simply enjoying the contact as Auren's shaft worked back and forth between the German Shepard's firm glutes, giving his tailhole a nice coating of precum. His own thick cock glided against the rock-hard ridges of Auren's six-pack, making him growl at the sensations, as he left a large stick trail through the hybrid's fur.

Auren felt his tongue loll out of his muzzle gently as those tight globes of the Shep's butt gripped his member, feeling himself shoot another thick jet of preseed to coat the underside of the male. Mike's paw wrapped around his head just an inch down from the tip, guiding him against that tight ring of muscle and Auren let out a soft groan as he felt himself push against the ring of muscle, slowly spreading it. "W-wait," he grunted, as his head inched every so slowly inside. "Got...condoms in my bag," he managed to pant out.

From his position atop his friend, Mike tilted his head and looked down with a confused frown. "Dude...when have we ever...?" He shook his head lightly. "Why would you think we need them now?"

The mono canine below simply grinned up at his companion smugly. "Just wondering...what you're fiance would say if you came home from this weekend carrying _my_pups instead of his," he said, waggling his eyebrows in just.

Mike simply rolled his eyes, and pushed backwards against the thick shaft prodding his tailhole, letting out a hissing grunt as Auren's tip spread him open. He felt another jet of precum lance up inside him, aiding in the penetration, before the head of the husky hybrid's cock slipped inside with a wet squish. "Nnngh....ahh fuck, there we go," he grunted. Below he heard Auren let out a soft whine as his sensitive flesh met the warmth of his tunnel. He wriggled backwards a bit, sliding another inch of his friend into him before leaning forward, his paws braced on either side of Auren's head. They locked gazes as they panted, slowly gyrating their hips in tandem as they began to work the hybrid's heavy shaft into his tight passage.

"O-oh fuck Mike," Auren said, his tongue hanging out the side of his muzzle slightly as his hips gave a soft buck upwards. The German Shepard was tight, but not overly so, and felt like warm silk wrapping slowly around his throbbing member. He ran his paws up Mike's thighs and gently squeezed those lovely glutes as they rocked together, working to get Auren deeper bit by bit. "I've...ngh...missed you,"

"M-missed you too, babe," the tan-and-black canine growled, rolling his hips side to side as he began to ride the slightly larger male below. His leg gave a brief quiver as several more inches of Auren's thick shaft slid inside, stretching his passage out along the way. He felt the wide middle of the canine's cock spread him a bit more, before Auren growled and thrust up again on instinct, managing to bury a good half of his member swiftly, causing the Shepard to let out a soft yip. "Sh-shiiiiit.." Mike whined quietly, wriggling his rear a bit, even as he pushed down on Auren's next upward buck.

The wet sounds of flesh meeting flesh sounded from between their moving hips as the pair of canine's panted and gazed at one another. Mike's nose would brush Auren's every time they moved, from his position of leaning forwards over the other male. "A-almost..." Auren whispered, gritting his teeth as he bucked up again, feeling more of his exposed shaft surrounded by warm, supple flesh."You okay?" he murmured.

Mike nodded, biting his lower lip as he felt the thick, throbbing member press against his prostate as it slid on deeper inside. He could feel the head of Auren's cock probing deeper up into his guts, making him shudder as he rubbed a paw over his lower belly. "Y-yeah...keep going," he panted, licking the husky hybrid's nose affectionately. Auren grunted an affirmative, and leaned his head back, eyes closing as he relished in the sensations gripping his needy member. After a few more moments of moving in tandem, and Mike could feel a much thicker bulb of flesh pushing against his entrance, and he couldn't stop himself from letting out a deep moan. "F-fuuuuck..." he whined softly. His paw could feel a slight bulge just above his own groin, under his furred abdomen, and he rubbed its outline slowly.

"M-Mike...d-damnn..."Auren grunted, panting. His gaze flicked back up to look at the Shepard in askance, but was quickly filled with the other canine's visage as Mike wrapped his muzzle around Auren's. The monochrome male moaned into the heated kiss as their tongues sought one another out and intertwined, his eyes fluttering closed again. He held his friend around the middle as he began to slowly move his hips back and forth, pushing upwards with firm but gentle pressure each time. He could feel and hear Mike whimper and groan into his muzzle as he took the lead, but the Shepard only kissed him harder as they mated.

The pair of canine's moved and writhed together atop they bed as Auren worked himself in and out of Mike's stretched tailhole with steady pace. The slightly smaller German Shepard gripped his companion's muscular chest firmly, almost dragging his claws against the flesh below, feeling Auren's muscles move and flex with the motion of his body. Auren's own paw held his friend tightly around the waist or thigh, sliding back and forth, while his other slipped between their abdomens and wrapped around Mike's own aching shaft. That earned another whine in their conjoined muzzles from the Shep, but he gripped it firmly and stroked it in time with his own thrusts, feeling his abs getting slowly more and more soaked with the dog's precum.

After another few minutes of fevered thrusting, Mike broke their long kiss with a growl, his lip curling slightly to show his teeth. "Nngh fuck...n-not gonna last much longer," he grunted. His girthy cock in Auren's grip pulsed heavily, his knot already swelling up and bumping against the paw holding him as his hips bounced. The softball sized knot throbbed angrily, signalling the dog's appoaching orgasm.

"Mmff...s'sokay..."Auren panted, their faces still pressed against one another. His hips bucked upwards a few more times, his own knot starting to press in and stretched his companion a bit more each time. "I'm pretty close too. Go for it," he said, sliding his paw down to grip at Mike's knot, earning a _much_deeper growl of pleasure.

"Sh-shit...n-no..." Mike snarled, jerking his hips a bit involuntarily as the grip around his sensitive knot nearly set him off. He nipped at Auren's muzzle aggressively, pushing his hips down against the fat base of the hybrid's thrusting shaft. "Tie me first."

"Y-you sure?" Auren groaned, feeling Mike's shaft pulsing rapidly in his grip. He could feel his own knot starting to blossom as it thudded into that firm ass. "Gonna be...mmf...stuck together all night if I do," he warned. His balls clapped up against the Shep's backside, their hips still moving in tandem as the growled at each other.

Mike leaned down to gently, but firmly get his jaws around Auren's neck, causing the wolf-husky cross to whine loudly. Inside, he felt Auren's shaft throb powerfully, a sharp buck of his hips driving it deeper than before, causing Mike to choke on his own growl at the sensation. But as he felt Auren's own jaws close around his neck and shoulder in a similar grip, he knew the message had gotten across. Moreover, the pace at which his long-time friend rammed upwards increased significantly, causing the bed to shake and shudder as they bucked atop it.

Slowly but surely, each impact of Auren's hips into that of his friend and lover started to spread the Shepard wider, the growing bulb of Auren's knot seeking entrance. He could feel each successive thrust getting juuust a bit more of his swelling flesh inside that tight ring, and his instincts began to override all else. His hips snapped up again and again as Mike held onto his throat, the German Shepard's own cock trapped between there firm abdomens as it pulsed with approaching climax. As he felt the ring of muscle finally beginning to yield, Auren snarled into Mike's shoulder and gripped the Shepard's knot_hard._ Mike practically roared into his throat as he felt the simultaneous sensations of his sensitive knot being squeezed, as well as Auren's own breeding tool shoving inside his passage.

The German Shepard's cock began to spurt and unload its rich seed across Auren's abdomen, even as the husky hybrid's knot inflated to full size inside him, turning Mike's roar of pleasure into a gasping whimper as his prostate was crushed by the sheer girth of Auren's knot. "Mmmgghh! Nnnnggghhhh!" he moaned and cried into his friend's neck, shuddering as he emptied his balls over Auren's torso. His friend was not far behind, as those teeth dug into his shoulder firmly, as the heavy cock buried inside his guts began to throb madly, and soon he felt the warmth of Auren's own seed beginning to pump inside.

Letting go of his mating bite, Mike panted and spasmed atop his friend as they rode out their respective orgasms, his cock leaving a decent sized pool of sticky white over and in the grooves of Auren's abdomen. The monochrome male kept up his grip and bite however, still thudding into his hips as he continued to unload for at least another minute. Mike's breath caught in his throat as he felt the warmth in his guts growing with each buck from the canine under him. "Sh-shiiiiit stud..." he whined, holding his lower belly just above his groin as he felt his hide expand slightly, pushed out from the sheer volume of cum Auren was pumping into him.

Thankfully, after another few rough thrusts, Auren sagged and released his own mating bite, falling back to the bed panting heavily. "Fuuuuuuuucck..." he moaned breathlessly, his paws caressing the sides of the canine atop him. His tongue lolled from the side of his muzzle as he caught his breath, looking up at his similarly panting partner with a goofy grin on his face. "Ohh gods...that was worth the wait..." he groaned.

"G-got that right," Mike said, giving another shudder as he stroked his swollen member gently, the tip giving another small gush into the mess he made of Auren's torso. Inside, he felt Auren's cock still pulsing and throbbing heavily, and he felt himself blush under his fur as his lower belly gurgled and pushed out a bit futher still. "O-oh jeez.....y-you're still going?"

"L-lil bit," Auren huffed sheepishly, pressing himself up against the snug tunnel that wrapped around his knotted shaft as it pumped and pulsed a few more times, adding to the growling deposit inside his partner. His balls did relax however, and he sighed, stroking Mike's fur as he came down from his high. He giggled a bit as he watched the Shepard rub over his lightly swollen lower belly - not overly bulging, but slightly noticeable from his normal trim beltline. "S-sorry. I did warn you."

Mike grunted, his ears flicked backwards momentarily. "Mmf...guess you are pretty productive now," he sighed, laying forward and getting comfortable atop his best friend. "So, that quip about what happens after two rounds..."

"Yeah, wasn't kidding," Auren smirked, as he nuzzled his partner."But I did get off before I left home, so I wasn't as pent up as I could have been," he winked playfully. "Not uncomfortable, is it?"

"Nah," Mike shook his head, and snuggled in close as they enjoyed the afterglow. "I could get used to it." He lifted his head and kissed his friend once more, earning an amorous growl in response. "In fact, I plan to."

Auren nodded, keeping up the kiss a bit longer. "Mmm...we're definitely not taking another year to get back together again," he vowed, getting a rumble of affirmative from the Shep atop him. He wrapped his arms around Mike's lower back as they felt the fatigue of sex wash over them, Auren giving a light push upwards now and then to gyrate his knotted cock inside his friend. Mike rumbled and chuckled, nipping and kissing a trail along Auren's neck and shoulder. "I missed you so much."

"Me too, babe," the German Shepard sighed, resting his head in the crook of his slightly larger companion's neck. "From today on; you, me, Ash....we're spending alot more time together. Work be damned." The gentle stroking up and down his back, as well as the warm, full feeling of cock and cum deep inside was quickly lulling him towards sleep. He shuffled slightly, feeling the weight in his lower belly shift and gurgle a bit. He could feel Auren's chest rise and fall smoothly, pressed together as they were, knowing the other canine was almost drifting off as well. The warmth in his gut made him smile...then... "Hey, Aur?"

"Mm...?"

"...you were joking about the whole, 'pups' thing, right?"

"Well, duh," the monochrome canine snorted. "Why? Want to go again and look the part?"

A light slap on his chest was his answer, and the pair drifted off against one another as the night rolled on.
