A story about two dragons sharing a holiday together, where one receives a surprise gift from his friend, and helps return a gift of his own.


I would like to let people know that this is a short story that I helped work on with a friend, who is to thank for all of the story and the whole idea, since I still come short of any good story myself. It is fairly late for the holiday it was based on, but hopefully people aren't too upset with that.


It had been thirty minutes since Fandar had arrived at the shopping plaza. His friend said he would meet him there at a planned time, but he was clearly late. Fandar didn't mind though, since his friend said he had to run some important errands. It was rather nice weather; a blanket of snow, clear, grey sky, and a nice temperature that wasn't cold enough to chill his warm-blooded body so much. The plaza was covered in flashy and bright decorations too, with music accompanying the area to herald the coming holiday; Christmas Day. It was a great holiday for everyone, including Fandar and other dragons. It was just a perfect excuse to get luxurious gifts or present them to those you hold dear.

The weather was a bonus too, since he preferred the cold. Freezing temperatures never bother his kind, but wearing some warming accessories was always fun to him. He was wearing a pretty plain blue scarf, along with his bags of course for the shopping he would be doing soon. His bags were held together with a thick strap connecting the two, with one bag on each side near the front of the wings. Fandar heard they were compared to what humans would call a 'backpack', except there were too bags instead.

He just kept his money in them like a wallet, so he had the extra space to hold the items he will buy that afternoon. That's all he had on him along with his scarf. His scales were a rather darker green colour and his horns were pale white. He felt that the scarf helps add variety to his colours as well. As he sat waiting for his friend and listening to the delightful music in the plaza, he finally listened to the familiar voice of his friend approach him. "Sorry I'm late, Fandar," said the red dragon.

"It was about time you showed up, Mal. I was starting to think you forgot and that I would have to get someone else the nice gift I have in mind for you," Fandar said in response.

His friend, Maldrak, had finally shown up. He was a red dragon, his hide a darker shade than a lot of others he had seen, without any accessories like Fandar's scarf, but carried the same 'backpack' as him on his shoulders.

"Well, I thought you had the patience to just wait a little longer. If I would have known how long it would take, I would have told you before."

Maldrak tried to defend himself, but they knew they liked their little playful arguments.

"Besides, I'm sure it'll be worth it."

"And how will that be? You're going to arrive on time more?"

"You'll see, but it's a surprise. Should we get going before your tail gets frozen to the ground?" Replied Maldrak playfully.

And with no more little quips they started walking to do their holiday window shopping. The evening was quite nice for the both to talk about the things they saw, and thought would make great gifts. They passed jewellery stores, clothing stores, electronics, and some knickknack places as well that had more special ornaments for Christmas. They made small talk and talked about their favourite media, like movies and books.

Fandar and Maldrak were friends and roommates. Though they were friends first, but when Maldrak needed a place to stay Fandar accepted to let him live in him home after some contemplation. Luckily, things weren't so bad between the two; neither of them really bothered the other, and the arrangements went smoothly, as if their relationship was consistent, they just had better access to each other when they needed something and spent a little more time together. They just had that one issue that happened around last spring...

"Hey, Fan, something look good over there?" Maldrak asked, referring to a small jewellery store that Fandar was staring a bit into.

"Um yeah, there's lots of good stuff in there. What do you think looks nice?"

Maldrak was a bit puzzled about the question, since he didn't know who it was for specifically, but noticed a few wristbands and necklaces that looked fantastic.

"How about that one?" Maldrak used his claw to point to a necklace in a display case that was a chain with no jewel or anything but had a nice pattern to it.

It had dark grey and bright silver squares linked together with dark dragon claw marks on the silver squares. It connected at the ends with a buckle it seemed, so quite likely meant for dragons, but he knew some humans who liked the style too. The sign said they were stainless steel and sterling silver, and would likely keep up its shininess and last longer too.

"Why do you ask?" Maldrak followed up with.

"Oh, just thinking about what to get for one of my cousins is all. Still haven't thought up of everyone's gifts yet of course."

The response seemed to make Maldrak forget why he even asked for his opinion anyway, and just looked over some of the other items that might suit his mother. It was finally getting a bit darker as the sun was setting, and the lights began to glow around the plaza. It had been a couple hours since they had been looking and talking, so they decided to make their way home. They agreed to keep their presents for each other secret, so they would do their shopping separately later.

After several more days, it was finally Christmas and they felt the snow chill their cave a bit, although they kept a little fire in the middle of their cave to keep a more moderate temperature, or at least a temperature that could be considered moderate for a dragon. They even had a Christmas tree on one side of the large room, decorated with a rope of shiny gold tinsel and a golden star at the top that sparkled with glitter. It was quite a nice way to brighten up the earthy tones of the cave they were in, but they had a few regular, not-Christmas-y decorations they always had, like basic art and even a TV.

They know the TV kind of stood out, but it was a pretty nice way to pass the time when they had nothing else going on. It's quite a wonder to them how it works, but they heard it received power through the wall and is attached to it tightly. They had basic furniture too, like a table where they can place their food, and some cushions and blankets of varying sizes for chairs and beds. The cushions and blankets split into two piles, one for each of them, and they had two 'rooms' as well, which were more like the main room of the cave, but smaller for their privacy and personal belongings.

Overall, it was quite a nice place for them. They both awoke early to start their morning with the tradition of gift opening. Their gifts for their relatives were delivered a few days ago, hoping they wouldn't be opened until this morning too. "Merry Christmas, Mal," Fandar said kindly to his friend and smiled a bit.

"Merry Christmas, Fan," Maldrak said back to him, making sure to return the smile as well, being sure to show his appreciation.

They had their gifts from their relatives under the tree already, received quite recently. They thought they would start with each other's gifts first, to emphasize their togetherness for that day, since they weren't visiting any family that Christmas. They each picked their respective gifts they chose and gave it to the other. Both simultaneously clawed at the wrapping covering it and opened the small boxes the gifts were in.

They wanted to keep their presents secret for as long as possible. When they opened the boxes, they were both intrigued by what they got. For Fandar, it was a new scarf, a red and white one in a diamond pattern, but also a new book to his surprise, and one that was written by one of his favourite authors no less.

As for Maldrak, he received a necklace, the same one he saw at that jewellery store a couple days ago. As they both looked at their presents and at each other, they were quite curious about their choice in gifts, and the thoughts that had driven each other to buy such nice presents. Maldrak was the first to ask due to his familiarity with the necklace.

"So that necklace at the jewellery store was meant for me then, huh?"

Fandar blushed a little as Maldrak caught on to his plan. "Yeah, it wasn't meant for a relative. I just wanted to ask which one you thought looked nice and took it as a hint that you would appreciate it. It wasn't the only one I considered, but I agreed that it would look nice on you."

"Well, yeah, it's pretty cool. But honestly, I assumed it would be a little expensive for someone who you already allowed to stay in his home with. I would have just stuck with something a little less... glamorous, but this is great. I think that it will look really cool on me. Thank you so much!" Maldrak exclaimed, showing an instant liking to the necklace that Fandar had decided on that day back in the store.

"But what about this book?" Fandar wondered. "I can understand you buying me the scarf, it is lovely. I just didn't think you really cared for books so much, Mal."

It was Maldrak's turn to answer. "Uh, I just know you really like reading. I mean, I never got into it much, but I noticed the kind of books you read at least. I just asked around a few places that sold books and tried to learn what's popular, and then I found the mystery books you like and bought that one. It was the most recent one, so I thought you wouldn't have it yet. And I knew you liked wearing scarves sometimes of course."

It was true that he didn't have it, but he had been planning to get it after the holidays. He doubted his family knew much about books either, so he wasn't expecting it to be a present. Only Maldrak would have known what he was reading.

"This is a very thoughtful gift, Mal. Thank you," said Fandar as he grinned a bit more for the welcome surprise. The gift had gotten Fandar thinking though, since the gift seemed a bit much, like getting two presents in one, and one where Maldrak had to learn a little bit to get the best book for him. Their relationship was fine, but it was just one odd day that threatened to change their friendship.

One day in the middle of the spring season, Fandar and Maldrak had different 'feelings' for each other. It wasn't one of any tiredness or exhaustion from being around each other for so long after living together, but more of the opposite. They had felt too focused on one another in a way. It was the middle of the season that might be considered "mating season" for dragons, only the way it works for them is that they just feel increased sexual need for whoever is close to you already, instead of just the feeling to mate with whoever's around. The confusion for them was that they're both male, and normally the feelings were reserved for females to males or males to females. They just believed their feelings were off, but they knew they couldn't last.

Experimentally, they both decided to scratch that itch and release their desires to let those feelings for each other go. They had started with a little rubbing at their own shafts, before deciding to try and push things a bit further rubbing against each other as well. They had shared quick licks to try and keep each other encouraged with the intimate actions, and before long they were eventually were frotting their members together, using their hips to rub up and down each other's shaft with their own. After they released their tension, more than a few times, they had both been oddly quiet about it.

They didn't talk much about it then, both thinking it was out of necessity for their desire to mate, but now those sorts of feelings seemed to be surfacing again. Fandar was the first to bring up the idea.

"Hey, Mal. Do you still remember that day when we experimented?"

Mal had to blush awkwardly at that, remembering that time immediately. "Y- yeah, why?"

"Well, I was just wondering how you felt about it?"

Mal blushed a bit more. "It felt... good. I didn't hate it, otherwise I wouldn't have done it, but it helped with our needs for the time."

Fandar had to dig a bit more into it. "But what about... after?"

"After? Well, we're still friends, so of course I was fine with it. What's this about all of a sudden?"

Fandar was embarrassed about the idea he was getting and what he might ask but felt compelled to due to his feelings about the situation as he remembered. "It's just, I think those feelings were a bit more, you know..? I don't think they were there for no reason. I was just uncertain about the feeling at the time, but we could have been embarrassed about it."

This created a bit of a puzzled look on Maldrak's crimson face, so he responded "Probably. How did you feel about it?"

"It felt good to me too, but in some way a bit more right. Like how I wanted a bit more of it and how comfortable I felt."

There was a bit of a silence in the room with only the fire crackling softly after that. It was a bit more than he wanted to say, but Maldrak wasn't too shocked about it.

Maldrak's response broke the silence. "I felt comfortable too but was too afraid to make you awkward by bringing it up. You are my friend after all, and I wouldn't dare make something like a personal need change that."

"And it hasn't changed it. You could do it again and we will still be just as close as we are now." This was also a bit too much of a giveaway for Fandar, but he felt more reassured about how Maldrak felt the same way about it. This caused Maldrak to give a little chuckle and be a bit bolder. "Well, maybe we could try, to make sure the feeling between us is mutual."

Maldrak got a bit closer after saying that, Fandar remaining in his sitting position where he was. A bit of nerves made Fandar tense up and his heart was racing a bit in anticipation. It felt like time was going slow for them both, but as Maldrak finally sat next to him, his thigh against Fandar's, he said "Just... don't be afraid to make me stop if I'm making you uncomfortable." Then began placing light licks along Fandar's neck.

The small licks made Fandar wince a little, but he was slowly eased into it as he began feeling warmer and more at ease. The licks started getting a longer after a bit, and Fandar leaned into his friend's side. Maldrak continued for a little bit until he noticed how Fandar's head was getting closer to his. This caused him to raise his licks to his upper neck, just below his cheek bones, and eventually on to his cheek. When Fandar was calmed, he looked up a little at his friend with his maw open slightly from his breathing. And after a moment, their tongues met in each other's maws, not knowing their arousal was building to something very similar to what it had been the last time they shared such a passionate moment together.

The two shared a moment of heated silence as the tender licking continued, each one drawing a quiet sigh or twitch from Fandar, and Maldrak felt himself smiling a bit at the pleasing response he was receiving to his actions. Maldrak felt his red body gradually pressing closer and closer to the green body that he was covering with affection right now, making sure to keep an eye out for any signs that Fandar was uncomfortable at all, and was glad to see that his friend was just enjoying himself.

Fandar's tail was twitching lightly behind him, the quiet thumping against the ground almost setting a beat in time with his heart, his head tilted to the side and letting out pleased sighs and gasps. He could feel Maldrak pushing closer to him and moved his head so that it was resting against the other dragon's body as those licks seemed to explore more and more of his body. He could feel himself starting to get more excited, his hind legs shifting a bit and the scent of his arousal making Maldrak huff out as he caught it.

Maldrak continued his steady advance with his tongue now, knowing that Fandar was definitely starting to enjoy himself more, and starting to get a little bolder with where he was letting his tongue roam. He was currently letting the slick muscle drag across the smooth scales on Fandar's underbelly, his eyes easily spotting the length that was beginning to expose itself between the green dragon's legs. He hesitated with his licks for a moment, lifting his head a bit and looking up towards his friend, but the sight of them with a pleased smile on their face and gently closed eyes told him that they weren't unhappy with anything that he had done yet.

He ducked his head down again, letting his tongue trail across those scales slowly, working down until he was licking along the inside of one of Fandar's legs, making the other dragon twitch a bit in response to that touch, but when he reached what he was really aiming for he was rewarded with a sharp intake of breath followed by a low groan, the sound of that tail thumping against the ground getting even louder. He had coiled his tongue around the tip of the green dragon's exposed length, the pointed shaft twitching and quickly pushing out even more at just that touch.

Fandar was fighting to keep himself calm, feeling that warm tongue wrapped around his overly sensitive feeling member, his hips grinding forwards a bit though he made sure not to move around too much, letting Maldrak take things at his own pace and trying to adjust to the situation himself. His heart was pounding much quicker now, as if he hadn't expected things to actually go this far, but now he was finding it difficult to think of much else besides that delightful warmth. Fandar wanted to just thrust his hips upwards, to feel his needy length buried in the warm maw of his friend, but managed to hold himself back for now.

Fandar couldn't help but let out a sigh of disappointment when he felt that head pull back from him, not wanting things to end so quickly but as he looked down he was met with an almost teasing smile on his friend's face. Maldrak clearly wasn't done with what he had planned, giving a slow lick at his lips before opening his maw to speak. "I think things might be easier if you lay back now, so that both of us can relax." He said with a gesture of his paw.

Fandar was quick to listen, wriggling his body a bit until he could feel his wings against the ground beneath him, spreading out a bit to try and help him keep his balance on his back. His green body was completely exposed before the red on that was above him now, and he felt a moment of embarrassment before Maldrak continued, not giving either of them enough time to get too nervous about things. Maldrak was gently moving his body around, placing his forepaws above Fandar's shoulders and letting his belly gently rest against the smooth scales beneath him now.

Even if he let all of his weigh rest against Fandar he doubted that it would be enough to cause any sort of harm, but even still he made sure to try and keep himself lifted so that the green dragon would still be comfortable. Maldrak let out a quiet rumble as he settled down a bit, feeling the warmth of the body beneath him, but also feeling his own excitement pressing back against theirs, drawing a gasp from him at the feeling of that slick flesh grinding against his own, his hips grinding downwards in a natural response and just making the both of them groan in delight.

Fandar suppressed a shudder of pleasure when he felt Maldrak pressing down against him, his own hips pressing upwards eagerly to feel more of the red dragon's hard length pressing against his own, grinding his hips from side to side to make himself push back even more intensely. For a few moments the two dragons could do little more than just groan and gently push back against each other, savouring the tingles of pleasure that were coursing through their bodies from such a simple touch.

Maldrak was the first to settle down enough to want to try something more, his breath huffing out of him, showing the effort it was taking not to just give in to what his body wanted and thrust down against the green body beneath him and taking whatever pleasure he could from that. Luckily his mind was still hungry for more though, and he let out a quiet grunt as he moved his tail around behind him, bringing the somewhat dexterous tip around so that it rested between Fandar and himself, and then wrapping it around both of the exposed shafts, squeezing them together and earning a surprised moan from Fandar at the unexpected action, the green dragon's back arching against the ground before starting to relax again.

Maldrak grinned down at the dragon beneath him, his tongue poking out for a moment before he started moving his hips, along with his tail, coiling and squeezing at his own achingly hard length as well as the saliva coated one that was held next to it, his own sensitive shaft grinding back and forth against his own tail as well as the one beneath him. The feeling of pressing his own draconic spire against something else that was so hard but so soft in just the right way was an experience that he wouldn't soon want to forget.

Fandar looked like he was in a world of his own bliss, squirming from time to time, pressing his hips back and forth in an unsteady rhythm, but one that set his heart pounding to a beat that was music to his ears. He wasn't sure what he had expected to come from just some nice licking, but it certainly wasn't anything like this, not that he would complain at all at this point. The look of Maldrak on top of him, as well as the sound of their breath huffing out, the feeling of their body pressing down and rocking back and forth against him just seemed to make things even more enjoyable for the green dragon.

Even with something so intense and pleasurable, that left him practically painting his belly with his own pre, Fandar knew that it wouldn't be all that Maldrak would have planned, since he had never known his friend to stop at half measures before, not that this situation would feel half measured to him at all. Maldrak's own eagerness was starting to show more, his hips moving back and forth in long motions, his body pressing down hard each time, as if just feeling more of himself pressing against the green scales beneath him was enough to make him feel even better.

Maldrak was easily getting carried away in just the feelings of pleasure and the incredible feeling of getting to share them with the other dragon beneath him, but he still ached for more, hungry to show how much pleasure both of them could reach. He could feel himself dripping and leaking against his friend already, and had a moment of worry that they wouldn't be happy with something like that, but decided he would just do his best to make sure they weren't unhappy with him later if he needed to. While he almost desperately wanted to do more, to feel his friend even closer, he knew that it wasn't something he could just jump into, even while the two of them were so entwined already.

Though it almost seemed like it pained him, Maldrak eventually managed to slow himself down, his teeth clenched for a few seconds as his body ached to be grinding against Fandar's again already, but he fought back against that feeling. "Fan I... I want to try something... more." He said, sounding unsure with his words, though the meaning was conveyed easily enough, especially with how his body was already resting on top of Fandar's.

Fandar looked up at Maldrak, just blinking a few times before any sense seemed to work its way into his mind, leaving his face feeling flushed at the sudden realisation of what he was hearing. His body was still tingling, and his length throbbing between his hind legs from the inattention, and he found himself quickly nodding his head, having nothing against anything his friend could offer and feeling the same dull sort of ache for more. Maldrak's breath came out in a deep sigh, his tail slowly uncoiling from around the two slippery shafts it had been gripping, and moving to flick excitedly at the ground behind him now.

Maldrak was eager to just move his hips and bury himself in the warmth that he knew he could so easily reach, but decided taking things slow to begin with might be a better idea, gently rolling his hips back a bit and letting himself drop lower, feeling his twitching shaft resting against Fandar's tail base now. He looked down at Fandar, as if to double check that they were really okay with this, though the sight of the green dragon looking back almost expectantly made his breath catch in his throat for a few seconds, a big grin showing on his face.

Without waiting for much else he slowly pushed his hips forwards, feeling the already slick tip of his length gliding against the smooth scales covering Fandar's tail, before kissing up against the warm flesh that was usually hidden beneath the large appendage, his breath huffing out warmly as he wriggled his hips and pressed forwards, feeling his tip sinking into the tight embrace of Fandar's tailhole. Fandar's muscles naturally squeezed down even tighter at feeling that shaft pressing into him, the warm velvety walls gripping at Maldrak in a way that made them both groan out loudly.

Fandar felt as if his body was stuck between a mix of panting out from the sensation, and being stuck breathless, though in the end he settled in a loud groan, his tail thumping loudly against the ground. It was a different sort of pleasure that he was feeling from having Maldrak slowly but persistently pushing deeper and deeper into him, but not something he would want to ignore now. His hips lifted lightly from the ground, pressing himself back against the red dragon, showing how eager he was to feel more of that thick length teasing at his sensitive insides, and he earned more as Maldrak surged forwards with a quick thrust, almost burying himself entirely within the dragon beneath him.

Maldrak huffed out deeply, his paws gripping hard at the smooth stone floor beneath him as if it was the only thing keeping him steady, his jaws clenched as he focused on not just starting to pound away at the warmth that was surrounding his shaft now. He could feel himself twitching and throbbing inside of that tight embrace, and each time his draconic member flexed inside of his friend it seemed to send them squeezing down all the more tightly. A few seconds of sitting still started to seem like an eternity, and before long he found himself pulling backwards, his hind paws shifting a bit as the tight walls that were gripping at him sought to keep him held inside.

His hips twitched forwards, the movement rapidly becoming more than that, and Maldrak grunted out as his hips slapped forwards, burying himself inside that delightful tailhole again, barely aware of what he was seeing while looking down at Fandar's blissful expression. Fandar's chest was rising and falling rapidly beneath Maldrak, letting out soft groans and moans of pleasure every time he felt the other dragon pushing into him, gripping down tightly with his muscles when he felt the pulling back. The sight of the half focused look on Maldrak brought a smile to his face, knowing that his friend was still trying to be careful even though they were obvious struggling with the same surges of pleasure as him, if not more.

The feeling of the red dragon's length grinding and pushing at his insides was making him squirm against the ground, not sure what he should be doing with his body while feeling so much, his paws twitching against the ground and in the air from time to time. Eventually he found something that helped him relax a bit more, his paws lifted and wrapped around Maldrak's neck in a half desperate, hugging at the red dragon while their pace picked up even more, pushing his own hips down against the ground over and over. The sound of Maldrak pushing into him was easy to hear, the room filled with the sound of what was happening as much as the vocalisations of pleasure that both the dragons were sharing.

Maldrak could feel himself starting to become more unsteady with his thrusts, losing his rhythm more and just starting to focus on burying himself as deeply as possible with each thrust, his hips only pulling back so that he could slam himself forwards even harder. It was hard to worry about what his friend was feeling when their body was causing him to lose all track of everything besides the incredible feeling of them, and how much he ached to be back in there even when he pulled his hips back for a few seconds. He could feel Fandar's own length pressing up against his belly, twitching and painting it with his own excited pre while Maldrak continued to pump his slippery fluid deep into the green dragon.

Each thrust seemed easier than the last, but more taxing on his control, leaving him practically growling as he slammed himself home again and again into those warm depths, making Fandar's body slid across the floor a few inches each time. Maldrak could feel himself starting to approach his peak, and rapidly at that, his tail twitching and swaying behind him without any of his control, his wings shuffling above him as if they couldn't sit straight, and his jaws were clenched as he looked down at Fandar's face.

Fandar could see the signs that were starting to show on his friend, though his own pleasure was leaving him feeling like his tongue could escape his maw if he lost focus, his own body tingling and aching at the same time in a way that made him arch his back against the ground, begging for more while wanting that end that he knew was coming. Maldrak blinked a few times above him, a rare show of self-control, before pushing their head down against Fandar's, just nuzzling his snout against theirs before leaning back with a hard shudder. His body tensed up hard, all of his muscles straining at his scales before he tilted his head and released a roar that almost seemed to make the ground shake beneath them both.

Moments later Fandar could feel Maldrak's hard length twitching even harder inside of him, a warmth seeping in through his insides as the red dragon was driven well over the peak of his pleasure. Fandar's own climax wasn't far behind, with the feeling of that shaft pressing against all of the right places inside of him while it worked on pumping him full of what seed Maldrak could offer. His own climax wasn't quite so loud, a different expression of relaxed bliss crossing his features as a long groan escaped him, his hips slowly grinding back and forth against the red dragon as his own member throbbed between their two opposite coloured bellies.

With Maldrak tensed and roaring out his pleasure, and Fandar groaning and trembling from the effort of even keeping his paws lifted from the ground it seemed like the two really were opposites for just a moment, the red and green of their tails coiled together, squeezing tightly at each other. When Maldrak was finally coming down from his climax he let his head drop lower again, pressing his snout against Fandar's yet again, though this time going a step further, opening his maw slightly and gently pressing the green dragon into a half confused kiss to try and show the affection that he was feeling right now.

Fandar accepted the kiss happily after he realised what was happening, pressing his snout and tongue back against Maldrak, leaving them both feeling breathless and incredibly happy after sharing such an intimate moment together. When Maldrak finally seemed to be getting tired he grabbed hold of Fandar, slowly rolling to his side and holding the green dragon in a gentle hug, his body pressed up against their own and feeling Fandar's paws grabbing at his back as well, forcing a pleased sigh from the two of them. Such a tender embrace nearly seemed to make Fandar forget about the fact that Maldrak was still buried inside of him, and a small smile spread across his face as he thought about just what sort of fun they would get up to next time.
