Offer of a Lifetime: Part 1
One Door Closes, Another One Opens
By: Ta'kom Ironhoof
The long days of high school were finally over. While not an exceptional student, Daniel had at least managed to pass his classes while also working a part-time job to save up for a car, and now, college. The young stallion had always wanted to get into the veterinary field, however, being that he was from the inner city, he had next to no experience with any other animals besides cats and dogs. Even those were a rarity in the densely packed apartments in the low-income house building. But Daniel still lacked about half of what it would cost to pay for just his Bachelor's degree. Daniel's class graduation was only a few weeks ago but he started to feel as if his dream was going to slip away just because he couldn't get the money together.
"Daniel! You've got mail!" he heard his mother's sing-songy voice call out from downstairs.
Begrudgingly getting up from his bed, Daniel replied, "Coming!" His hooves clacked loudly on the floor in a show of defiance as they met the floor. His frustration was becoming manifest. Taking a moment to put on a shirt to cover his blue roan colored torso and to fix his dark gray mane, he breathed in sharply and sighed through his flared nostrils. "Probably just another piece of junk mail," he thought to himself as he proceeded toward his bedroom door, only stopping for a moment to stare at himself in the mirror with his piercing green eyes.
As Daniel got to the landing of the staircase, his mother commented, "I was beginning to wonder about you. Usually, on Saturday, you're out with your girlfriend or buddies doing something. Anything wrong?" Daniel's mother, Elizabeth, was once a beautiful mare with golden-brown eyes and a blue roan coat that matched her sons with a light gray mane. Even though her eyes were still bright, it was apparent that time and the stresses of a difficult life had taken their toll.
The apartment in which Daniel, Elizabeth, and Daniel's father, Edward, lived wasn't the standard of living, far from it. It was apparent, from the slightly musty smell in the air, that the building was very old and many families had lived in this apartment in the past, as was the case with all the apartments. Though all the appliances worked decently well, they were far from new, and stains from ages past still clung to both the interior and exterior. In fact, everything about the apartment gave the appearance of cheap labor and plenty of wear.
"Nah, everything's fine," he replied, unsuccessfully disguising his frustrations from his mom.
Elizabeth gently placed her hoof-tipped hand on her son's shoulders. "Daniel, I know when you're upset. I heard your feet stomp on the floor as you got up before coming downstairs. What's the matter, hun?" Elizabeth, with a gentle yet concerned look, stared intently at Daniel awaiting his response.
Still attempting to hide his feelings, Daniel stared at the floor while gritting his teeth as a wellspring of emotions began to come up his throat but Daniel suppressed them. Closing his eyes for a moment before opening them back up to face his mother, he replied, "I've been working so hard to pay for college and I'm still thousands of dollars short. I mean, yeah, I got a car finally but I really want to go to school to be a veterinarian. Before graduation, I applied for scholarships and work programs but no one has sent me anything. Nobodies called me. Not heard anything and I'm just frustrated. What if I'm stuck the rest of my life in a dead-end job wondering what could have been?"
Elizabeth simply smiled as the look of concern washed away from her face. "You're 19 years old young man. Sometimes in life, you just have to roll with the punches. Besides, you DID get a letter just now. Maybe it's good news." Elizabeth turned around, grabbed the letter, and handed it to Daniel. "
Daniel let out a hearty laugh. "Fat chance. Probably just more junk mail but thanks, mom." As Daniel began to open the letter, he asked, "So when do you think dad will be home?"
"Probably sometime after dark. You know, you're not the only one that works hard around here. We might not have enough to help pay for your college but it's enough to pay for the roof over your head and the food in your belly every night. Oh, and the electricity for those fancy video games that you like to play," she said as she reached up and tousled his mane.
"Hey stop it!" Daniel exclaimed. "I work hard to take care of this mop."
"And who buys the stuff to do that? Just open your letter already" Elizabeth replied. The hem of her simple floral dress twisted sharply as she turned to start walking toward the mostly-intact kitchen to begin making dinner for the family.
Daniel ripped the envelope open and let out a sigh. "Let's see what kind of bullshit this is," he thought to himself as he unfolded it. After fully opening the tri-folded letter, Daniel began to read silently. His eyes went wide before he then proceeded to read it aloud.

As Daniel finished reading the letter, he looked up to see his mother, staring at Daniel with a look of absolute delight. However, Daniel's head felt light. The blood was slowly fading away from his face as his brain tried desperately to process what he had just finished reading. This was the best news anyone had...
Daniel promptly fainted.
As Daniel opened his eyes and they had adjusted, he found himself in unfamiliar surroundings. As startled and confused as he was in this stupor, he was too weak to move other than shifting his head. He was in a hospital. The various sounds of beeping and various medical devices could be heard through the door to his room. The nurses were bustling as a patient in another room began to yell at them. Daniel started to look around. To his right, his girlfriend Laura, a female antelope that Daniel had been dating for a long time and graduated with, was fast asleep in a chair. To his left were the various medical monitors found in every hospital. Daniel continued to take in his surroundings and he suddenly remembered the letter as his head began to throb. "Had it all been a dream," he thought to himself. "And what the hell happened? Why am I in the hospital?"
Just as those thoughts entered his mind, the door to his room opened and Elizabeth entered the room. "Hey Daniel, you're finally awake. How's your head feeling?" she spoke quietly as she walked toward the hospital bed, gently placing a hand on her son's shoulder.
The pain continued to pulse from the back of his head. "It feels like someone dropped a bowling ball on it. What happened?" Daniel reached back to touch his head only to find that it was completely wrapped in gauze with a thicker pad of the material on the back right side with only his ears exposed.
"Hey Laura, wake up. Daniels back with us again," Elizabeth called out. She then turned her attention back to her son. "Well, you finished reading the letter you got from Ableton, and... you just passed out. The back of your head hit the console table and broke my grandmother's antique ceramic bowl. Left a pretty nasty gash on the back of your head and the poor doctor pulled almost a dollar's worth of loose change out of your ear."
At this, Laura spoke up with a slight chuckle. "Maybe now your hearing will 'change' for the better." Both Daniel and Elizabeth looked at her with the blankest of expressions, desperately trying to suppress their laughter.
After a moment of deadpanning, Elizabeth broke the deafening silence left by Laura's awful joke, with a small chuckle. "Well, I think you two have a few things to discuss. I'll leave you be. Laura, let me know when you'll be leaving and I'll take you home."
"Yes ma'am," Laura replied. "I've already let my parents know what happened as well. They're not expecting me for a while."
Elizabeth turned and walked out of the room, only stopping long enough to shut the door behind her. Laura then slowly got up from the chair and sat down on the bed next to Daniel before speaking. Her lithe body did little to disturb the firm mattress on the bed. "I'm really glad you're alright. Why'd you have to go and get yourself hurt?" Laura said, smiling, as she placed a hand on Daniel's thigh.
"Hey! It's not like I meant to," he exclaimed while throwing his hand up. Daniel was beyond thrilled that Laura was here. They were supposed to have a date tomorrow but he guessed that those plans would have to be put on hold now. As if there was a sudden pause in time, Daniel took a moment to really take in the beauty of his girlfriend. From her black horns to her oak-colored back and legs, he thought she was an amazing creature to behold. The white fur from the nape of her neck leading to her pubic mound really accentuated her reddish golden-brown eyes. Reality, however, waits for no-one and his mind was brought back to the present with thoughts of the letter he had received earlier. "Did mom tell you?"
At Daniel's question, Laura lowered her head, looked away, and flattened her ears. "Yeah, she did. I got a letter in the mail today as well." Her expression had changed from happy to somber very quickly and Daniel was confused by the juxtaposition of her words and body language. He knew what was coming next wasn't good.
"Well? How about you share your letter first and then we can talk about mine," Daniel spoke.
A tear began to form on the corner of Laura's eye and her hooves gripped the blanket on the bed tightly as she turned to answer him. "Daniel, we're going to be on opposite ends of the country," she paused. "I got accepted to Stockton University. It wasn't my first choice but it's a full-ride scholarship. I can't really turn it down." Her hooves finally released their grip as a tear fell from her cheek down to the bed.
The sudden realization of the point Laura was hinting at quickly hit Daniel. "Plenty of folks are in long-distance relationships, Laura. I think I know what you're about to say but come on. We've been dating since, like, forever ago." Daniel could feel his ears begin to water as well and the throbbing in his head intensified as he spoke.
Laura closed her eyes for a moment and slammed her hoof down on the bed. "Don't you think I know that? This is hard enough as it is and I had all of this sorted in my head but now...I love you Daniel but long-distance just isn't me. But I also don't want this to end our friendship. Just..." Laura fell silent as her throat ached as she struggled to continue to talk while holding back her tears. "I'm so happy...that you'll be able to do what you want in life."
Daniel reached out his arms and Laura fell onto his chest, her tears soaking the medical gown he was dressed in. For the next couple of hours, the two talked about life, what they plan on doing after college, and how they were going to stay in touch. Daniel hated they would be apart, and now no longer be a couple, but she was still his friend, and him, hers. Laura revealed that the university that she would be attending would begin classes in only a week's time, which meant she would need to fly out the day after tomorrow. With Daniel in the hospital, this would be one of, if not the only, chance they'd be able to see each other for a long time.
"Listen, I'll always be your friend so if you ever need me, you've got my number," Laura said as she started to get off of the bed. "Maybe we can visit each other some time."
Daniel reached up for another hug as he said, "Yeah, I think I'd like that. Better go let mom know you're heading out." Daniel and Laura embraced tightly. The pressure of her breasts pushing back against his chest was just another wonderful thing on a list of many things he was going to miss about her. After a moment more, the two separated.
"And make sure to save some of this for me when I do visit," Laura said as she reached over and grabbed Daniel's balls. "Jeez Daniel, a little full aren't you?" she said as she gave a little giggle and a sly look.
Daniel laughed before speaking. "I guess so. It's been what...a week since we fucked last?"
As Daniel was talking, Laura had already started to make her way to the hospital room door. Daniel couldn't help but stare intently at her ass that was tightly enveloped in her blue jeans. A jet-black stripe ran from the back of her neck, all the way down to the tip of her tail. The hair of her tail swished back and forth as she purposefully swayed her hips to entice the young stallion. "Maybe I should give you a little parting gift before I head out tonight," Laura said as she locked the door. "Hopefully, those monitors don't alert anyone."
In the time between when Laura grabbed Daniel's heavy nut-sack and when she locked the heavy hospital room door, Daniel's black and pink speckled cock had already relaxed out of his sheath with just the prepuce still covering the head of his equine cock. Laura sexily sauntered back toward the hospital bed as she started stripping off her black t-shirt and kicking off her tennis shoes. Daniel always had an appreciation for antelopes and Laura checked every box on that list. From her coat's color and pattern to her taut ass, strong thighs, and decently sized perky breasts, he admired every inch of her body. Laura continued with her striptease as she turned away and reached behind herself to unclasp her neon green bra. With one arm covering her nipples, Laura unbuttoned her pants while swaying her supple hips back and forth, slightly bending forward to accentuate her cleavage.
At this point, Daniel was fully erect and pre-cum had soaked through a spot in the blanket covering his lower half. The scent of his musk began to fill the room and mixed equally with Lauren's own. Any other time, Daniel would have thought twice about his surroundings and be worried about being caught, but at this moment, all he could think about was her. He wanted to cherish this moment forever.
With only a few swift motions, Laura gracefully slipped out of her jeans and they hit the floor as her tail slipped out of the hole in the back. As usual, no panties were to be found. "I promise I'll be gentle. Don't want you passing out again now do we?" Laura teasingly questioned as she climbed onto the bed. She then threw her leg over Daniel's torso, straddling him. Though it was painful, Daniel lifted his head and met Laura's mouth as their tongues intertwined in a deep and passionate kiss. Laura then lifted her torso so that her breasts hung directly in front of Daniel's face and he obliged her with his mouth and hands. His tongue happily lapped and circled her nipples as his hands continued to caress and explore her body. His hands were all too familiar with the landscape in which they found themselves once again.
Daniel's left hand moved down the white fur of her midsection, slightly grazing her belly button, before finally landing at her clit as he began to gently rub it. Within moments, Laura was unconsciously rocking her hips back and forth. The two young lovers continued to kiss as Daniel moved his hand a little lower and slipped a finger inside of Laura's pussy while using his thumb to continue messaging his lover's pleasure button. The amount of fluid seeping out of Lauren's cunt surprised Daniel but it was an only fleeting thought. With each rock of Laura's hips, he could feel her walls clamping and releasing, almost as if her body was greedily begging him for more. He obliged her with another finger, slowly slipping them in and out of her womanhood, all while keeping his thumb gently on her clit.
After a few more moments, Laura lifted straight and forcefully put her hand on Daniel's chest. "Ok hang on. Let me turn around and get a condom on you. I...kinda forgot my birth control..."
"Hey, no problem. Just give me a chance to get a mouthful of that delicious pussy of yours," Daniel replied as he removed his fingers from inside her. Laura leaned in really close and continued to kiss and nibble at Daniel's neck. It was something that she knew drove Daniel mad and his cock started pulsing with each movement of her lips. His pre-cum, along with Laura's juices, had soaked a rather large spot in the blanket by now. As Laura was teasing Daniel, he didn't notice that she was reaching under his pillow.
"There it is. I had to hide it under your pillow after it fell out when I first got here," Laura laughed. "Didn't want your mom seeing that."
Daniel only grinned. He could have cared less at this moment if his mom had seen it or not. Laura then carefully turned around and planted her firm ass directly in Daniel's face. Without hesitation, Daniel began to run his tongue on, in, and around her clit and folds of her pussy as he used his hand to spread her cheeks open. Laura had to throw a hand over her mouth to cover the sound of her pleasured moans as Daniel began to eat her out. Laura then started licking and stroking Daniel's cock, forcing pre-cum to rise out of the head. She gingerly licked all of it up before slipping the head of his dick into her mouth. Daniel instinctively thrust his hip upwards at this and Laura threw back her hand, slapping his side in a little fit of annoyance.
Pulling him back out of her mouth, "Daniel please, my cunt might be able to take you but not my mouth," Laura said.
Again, Daniel only grinned and said, "Sorry, I can't help it."
For only a few moments longer, Daniel and Laura continued to pleasure each other orally. Laura finally shifted forward and straightened a bit to begin slipping on the condom. Like an expert, she had the little rubber tube on Daniel's throbbing cock in seconds and started to turn back around to face him. His eyes stayed locked onto Laura's bodily perfection the entire time as her face met his. "I love you, Laura," Daniel whispered
"I love you too Daniel," Laura whispered to him as she reached back and lined up the head of his cock with her pussy. Laura slowly shifted her weight back onto his dick and the initial entry made her body convulse as she let her head fall back. Her long black hair gently swept across his balls causing him to stiffen his member for a moment. Laura always had to stop when he first entered her for a brief moment to allow herself to stretch out.
Laura let out a muffled moan as she got off of her knees and planted her feet on the bed to squat over her lover. Daniel simply laid his head back onto his pillow to admire what was about to transpire. Watching Laura slowly take the entirety of his shaft always made Daniel excited and this was his favorite position. He knew she was doing this for him. Very slowly, Laura lowered herself down his shaft, inch by inch. After the first eight or so inches, her labia finally met the medial ring of his equine cock. Laura placed both of her hands on Daniel's chest as a look of pleasurable determination came across her face. Slowly, she lifted herself up and then slowly back down a couple of times. Daniel could tell that she was incredibly horny just from the amount of lube that had accumulated around his cock.
Laura, with a swift but gentle motion, forced the medial ring to enter her body. A winced moan escaped her lips as her faced washed over with a slight grimace before turning back to pleasure. "I hate that part, "Laura chuckled. "But fuck does it feel so good afterward." Laura lifted back up from over the medial ring and used her hand to stroke her lube down the remainder of his member, giving it a slight tug with each stroke. Daniel could feel, and Laura watched, as his cock flexed and his balls rose upwards. She locked eyes with Daniel as she continued to fill herself to the brim with his cock. After a few more moments of her downward movement, her eyes slowly closed as she finally reached the base of his cock. Laura always loved how full and stretched out she felt when reaching this point but she knew she couldn't stay there forever.
As her eyes opened once again and Daniel's bright green eyes locked eyes with hers. The fiery, reddish golden-brown color of her iris was always so beautiful. "You ok?" he asked.
"Yeah...I'm just going to miss the fuck out of this...and you," Laura said as she leaned in for another passionate kiss, placing her hands squarely on his shoulders. As she leaned forward, Daniel's member slid out just enough to allow him to thrust but still stay in.
Laura moved her face closer to his ears, "Fuck me, Daniel..."
As if testing the waters in consideration of his injury, Daniel thrust his hips upwards, slowly at first, then gaining a fair bit of momentum as his cock thrust in and out of Laura's wet pussy. The squelching slap of their fucking echoed throughout the room but neither of the young lovers cared. As Daniel reached a speed they were both comfortable with, Laura reached down between her legs the white fur covered pubic mound and began rubbing her clitoris. With each thrust of Daniel's cock, waves of pleasure washed over both of their bodies. "Oh god, Daniel...."
The young stallion couldn't help but to start grunting and snorting, his balls ever-rising as he began to reach his climax. Laura moaned and grunted into Daniel's ear as the walls of her vagina clamped down on his pumping cock. "I'm cumming...fuck me...breed me stallion..." Laura demanded as her grip tightened on his shoulders and her rock hard nipples slid back and forth across Daniel's chest. Laura's entire body tensed up as her fingertips dug into Daniel's shoulder flesh, all the while, Daniel continued to thrust more and more.
Just as the intense waves of orgasm began to lessen, Laura could fill her insides getting tighter. Daniel was about to cum as well. Using the hand she had between her legs already, She reached back and began to fondle his balls and kissed his neck. "Give it to me..."
Daniel's entire body tensed up suddenly, and with a loud grunt, orgasm overtook his body. His arms around Laura's body tightened, trying to force more of himself inside of her, though there was nothing left. His cock throbbed defiantly against the walls of Laura's vagina and the head of his cock flared to its full size forcing her insides to tighten. Daniel could feel every gush of cum that was leaving his body as wave after wave of climax hit him. Laura then began to rub her clit to once again bring herself to climax while Daniel was fully trapped inside of her. The feeling of fullness inside of Laura was enough to easily bring her to another orgasm within seconds.
The two lovers continued to lay, embracing one another until Daniel's cock had retracted and fell out of Laura with a splattering sound. "Oh good. The condom didn't break," Laura said as she looked back to watch as Daniel's cock tried to retract into his black sheath.
"Should probably take that off," Daniel said, pointing at the red-colored condom that hung heavily from the head of his shaft. His seed filled at least half of the equine condom and that was no small feat. "Would be embarrassing to have to call someone in to clean that up."
"Don't worry, I got it," Laura said as she got off the bed and slowly pulled the condom off. As she did, however, she leaned down and put as much of his still semi-hard shaft into her mouth as she could and tugged upwards to suck out any of the remaining cum still inside. Daniel's entire body tensed again due to still coming down from the orgasm as Laura finished slurping up the contents of his dick into her mouth. She let out a satisfactory sigh, "Horse cum is just the best. I'm tempted to suck up this condom too..."
"Ew, don't do that," Daniel exclaimed. "It's hot but just dump it out and get rid of it somewhere away from the hospital."
Laura smiled and opened her mouth, mimicking pouring the contents into her mouth before stopping. "Oh ok, fine." With that, Laura stepped into the bathroom.
Daniel dropped his head back down onto his pillow and began reflecting on what had happened and all that might happen soon. The sound of the toilet flushing brought him back into the current moment. Laura was about to leave and it might be a while before he saw her again. "Hey, Laura. Before you go, promise me you'll call me when you get out west. Even if you don't call again for a time afterward, at least do that for me," Daniel said as Laura stepped into the room again.
"Of course I will stupid," Laura said as she began to pick up and put her clothes back on. "I plan on calling you every day. We might not be 'dating' anymore but you're still my best friend." Laura then slipped on her jeans and did a little hop to get her butt fully inside of them.
Daniel's eyes began to briefly water as he knew he was going to miss being around her and yet he knew she wasn't lying. In all of the time that they had been together, he knew when she promised something, she kept her word. Daniel watched as she put her clothes back on and fully appreciated every inch of her body. "Think you could find me another blanket? We kinda messed that one up." He said as he pointed to the blanket that was now on the floor, soaked with a mixture of pre-cum and natural lube.
Laura simply turned and smiled in his direction. "Sure Daniel. Maybe I'll take it with me as a souvenir." She then began to look in the cabinets around the room, finally finding a fresh blanket in one of the upper cabinets. Without a word, she pulled his gown back down, unfolded the blanket, and covered her lover's body. Laura then leaned in once again for a kiss, after which, they placed their foreheads together.
Daniel spoke, "Laura...thank you."
Laura spoke, "For what..."
"For being the best..." Daniel said as a tear ran down his cheek.
"Dido..." said Laura as her eyes also began to fill with mixed tears of joy and sadness.
The two lovers continued to sit there for a moment longer before there was finally a knock at the door. "You two ok in there?" Daniel's mother called out. "I heard... 'stuff' and then it went silent." The pair of young adults chuckled.
"Yeah, we're alright Mrs. Everton. Just saying my goodbyes."
"You'd better go," Daniel said. "Text me when you get home. Hopefully, mom brought my phone to the hospital with her."
At that, Laura stood up, waved goodbye half-heartedly, and walked to the door. With a loud clack, the door mechanism unlatched and the heavy door swung open. Daniel's mom looked at him with a knowing look as she put her arm around Laura's shoulders. "I'll be back in a little while Daniel. Come on sweetheart, let's get you home."
The door shut and Daniel was left alone. He was extremely happy and terribly saddened at the ending of this chapter of his life. He had often fantasized about after college asking Laura to marry him but he'd not thought about the possibility of his current situation. Maybe it could still work out. Maybe not but right now, he knew he needed to focus on getting better and preparing for his dream: Becoming a veterinarian.
