A Rough Start

It all started back in the academy. A young officer Shadow walked into his assigned dorm room and stopped. Bent over, loading the last of his personal belongings into one of the two dresser/closet combos in the room, was the ass of a raccoon. And what an ass it was, and that tail! Is was so rich, so bushy, and so... turning around!? Quickly grabbing his bag, and the room assignment sheet he was given, he glanced down to see the name of the fur he was rooming with..

"You must be Krystal," Shadow said.

"Krys," came the reply as the coon turned. "Call me Krys. And you must be Shad... oh."

Shadow had been prepared for this, his appearance usually shocked other furs the first time they saw him. While it was true that he was a grey fox, his fur was an extremely dark grey, not the usual light grey, which brought out the deep garnet of his eyes in a startling way. On top of that he usually wore black, and now was no exception. He was also wearing a long black coat as well, which only made him look all the more menacing. He was about to say something when he noticed where Krys' eyes were looking. They were frozen on his neck where, prominently displayed, was a silver pentagram necklace.

Narrowing his eyes, Shadow asked, "Is there a problem?"

"N-no," Krys stammered. "it's just ironic ya know? Them making us roommates."

Now Shadow was mad. "No, I don't know. Let me guess though. You're such a fanatic that, because I'm a Wiccan, you hate me right?" Shadow growled, causing the coon to jump.

"No! It's just that I did a small background check on everyone's religious beliefs before I came, and found that there were only two pagans in this entire patch of trainees," Krys said quickly.

"And?" came Shadow's terse reply.

"I'm the other one!" Laughed Krys, "I wanted to know how open to be."

Shadow's face softened. "You're right that is kind of ironic. And for the record my name is Rhys," Shadow said extending his hand.

"Rhys? I thought it was Shadow? At least, that's what the door says."

"Shadow was a joke by..." Rhys trailed off," a friend called me that once and it just stuck."

That's cool," said Krys, but Rhys barely heard him he was so lost in thought. He was remembering the other coon he had known, the one who had given him his nickname. His name was Ryan. They had met when Rhys was 19 and Ryan was 22. Ryan had started calling Rhys "Shadow" because of his interest in becoming a detective. Shortly there after, Ryan had been shot and killed. Ryan had worked at a bar, and one night it had gotten a little rowdy. One of the guys, a rat, was trying to sell some stolen goods, and seeing as it was about ten minutes till Ryan got off, he had decided to just escort the rat outside and ask him to leave instead of calling the cops. When he left the rat to go back inside, thinking he was going to call the cops anyway, the rat shot him and ran off. By that point the and Rhys had been dating for four years, and had just moved in together. When Rhys found out he rushed to the hospital where Ryan was, only to arrive just as Ryan's vitals flat lined. Rhys had always hated the name "Shadow" but kept using it to remember Ryan by. That was six months ago. Rhys had applied to the academy in order to put away scum like the rat who had taken his Ryan.

Shadow looked up and saw that Krys was looking hungrily at him so he asked, "So Krys, got a girlfriend?"

"What! Why-"he cried before being cut off.

"I want to know if we'll be expecting company often is all relax."

"Oh. No. I don't have a girlfriend. What about you? You got one Shadow?" Krys noticed a look of pain cross Shadow's face.

"No," was his short answer. Before Krys could ask what was wrong Shadow asked, "You wanna get some food? I'm kind of hungry."

"Sure!" Krys said happily. "How about the little Italian place called Mario's up the hill or the bar-"

"NO. I'm not... I can't... just no." Rhys didn't want to go there for a while because that was Ryan's bar.

"Okay... What about Mongols up in the Highlands?"

"That sounds ok. I'll drive." Rhys' car had originally belonged to Ryan, but after his death, he had left it to Rhys. It was a small, black sports car with a license plate bearing the decal DARK1. As they walked past, Krys noticed a small pride flag sticker with some writing in the lower corner of the rear window. His heart leapt and the sank as he noticed what the writing said. "Ryan + Rhys" it read. So Shadow belonged to someone and Krys had no chance it seemed. The drive to the restaurant was uneventful with Rhys making some light conversation. When they arrived, Rhys' friend Meg, a tiger, was their waitress. Her first words to them were "Oh Rhys sweetheart! How are you holding up?" which made Krys wonder about Shadow's recent past. After ordering two specials and two cokes, Rhys excused himself to the restroom and Meg sat down.

"Ok buddy, listen up. What do you know about Rhys and Why are you with him tonight?"

"Not much Meg. We're roommates at the academy and he asked if I was hungry is all. Not much else."

"So you're not trying to date him?"

"Like I stand a chance seeing as he has a boyfriend."

"He does? Who!"

"Some guy named Ryan. I saw the sticker on his car."

"Oh..."

"So what are you to talking about?" said Rhys as he walked back to the table.

"Just asking him some questions,? replied Meg. "Now follow me Rhys."

Shadow walked off with Meg leaving an even more confused Krystal sitting alone, trying to figure out just what was going on in Shadow's life. Once they were out of earshot, Meg said. "What do you think of him?"

"What do you mean Meg?"

"I mean do you think he's cute him stupid."

"Sure he is meg, but I'm not really ready to date again."

"Ok..."

"What?"

"Just give him a chance Rhys." Shadow huffed and walked back to the table. As he sat down he managed to bump the table enough to topple over His drink , which soaked Krys' pants. Hurrying to grab some napkins Shadow tried to dry them off and managed to rub Krys' crotch in the process.

Without thinking, Krys said, "That feels nice."

Rhys immediately stopped and walked away. As soon as he was gone Meg returned with their food in to-go bags and said, "What the hell did you do?"

"Nothing... well I managed to clue him in big time that I was interested in him I think. I said him drying my pants felt nice..."

"Damn it Krys!"

"What! I didn't think. I'm sure Ryan won't be mad at him."

"That it though, Ryan can't be mad or angry at Rhys. He can't be anything at Rhys anymore. Krys honey, Ryan was killed six months ago in a shooting at the bar next to Mario's where he worked. Rhys hasn't gotten over it yet."

"Great! Now I've ruined all chances I had with him, AND any chance at friendship in one go. Goodnight Meg." He left the money for their food on the table and walked out. He began walking back to the dorms, and had only gotten a few feet, when Shadow pulled up and opened the passenger side door. Krys got in with out a word and didn't say anything for the rest of the ride home. When they got back he walked up to their room and sat he food on the table. Then he went to take a shower. While he was in the shower Rhys ate and then went to bed. After Krys got out he noticed that Shadow was asleep and had managed to push the cover's down to his feet. He also saw that Shadow was shivering so he walked over thinking he would just pull the covers back over him, but when he was at the bedside he saw that Shadow's cock was rock hard. Seeing this he felt his own sheath swell, and he pulled the covers over Shadow's sleeping form. Then he got into bed himself, but before he fell asleep he decided to take care of the raging erection he had. Slowly he began to fondle his balls and stroke his shaft. Seeing his desire's cock had really aroused him and it took only a few minutes before he came shooting his seed onto his chest. Exhausted from his efforts, Krys fell asleep basking in the after-glow of his orgasm. While this was going on Rhys was dreaming of Krys. Krys was giving him the best sucking he had ever had. He was gently licking Rhys' balls and slowly licking up and down his swollen cock. Then he engulfed the swollen member and began to suck. Quickly, Rhys came. His cock spurted shooting his load deep into Krys' mouth, who swallowed every drop of his cum. Then Krys licked off all the cum from Rhys' cock. That was the last thing Rhys remembered before he woke up. Once he woke up Rhys decided to go for a run, and left a note telling Krys that he had done so. On the run he debated about what to do. Clearly form his dream last night he wanted Krys, but was he ready? He thought so and decided to tell Krys that when he got back. Meanwhile back at the dorm, Krys woke up to find Shadow gone. He looked and found the note that Shadow had left him and decided to talk to him about how he felt. At that moment Shadow walked through the door.

"Shadow I need to talk to you."

"Can it wait until I've had a shower?"

"I guess."

Shadow walked towards the bathroom and said, "You know, I can never really get my back clean alone. Mind giving me a hand Krys?"

Krys couldn't believe his ears! "You? Me? Shower? Together?" he rambled. "Nude?"

That's how one usually takes a shower Krystal," laughed Rhys. "Come on."

They got in the shower and began to clean each other off. After a bit, both looked down and noticed that the other had, as they expected, an erection. Looking into Krys' eyes, Shadow grabbed hold of Krys' cock and began stroking it. Krys jumped and managed to slip. They both fell over. Krys hit his head and Shadow some how cut his knee on the bath faucet. Both looked at the other, and began to kiss passionately. After a few minutes Rhys broke the kiss to wash the blood off his knee and then they moved to the bed. After their fall in the bathroom both were too sore, and neither was in the mood to do more than just lay there and rest. In the end, both fell asleep curled in the other's arms.
