#2 of Shadow and Troy


Writers note: Although it is shorter than last time, after writing it I felt this scene deserved its own part because of how it showed Troy's infatuation with Shadow while at the same time his desire to keep him as a good friend. My favorite author, Stephen King, once said that he could only write when he heard the song. That he wasn't so much inventing his characters and worlds as much as he was simply reporting a world suddenly opened to his eyes. That when the song stopped, so did the story. That's how this part was for me. The next part will still focus more on Troy's perspective, but Shadow will be more involved as "the plan" is enacted to hopefully shift the relationship more in Troy's favor. Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy it.

Troy

... "Thanks Danny. Gooood mornin' everyone! Big Z here with your weather and traffic updates! It's 9:30 a.m., December 16th and if you don't know what year it is, go find a doctor immediately! It's a balmy twenty-five degrees out, so don't forget to chip the ice off your tail if you're walking around out there today! Traffic has been slowed down Main Street today due to a tennis supply truck overturning, causing a general-" The loud voice of the obnoxious "Big Z" cut off as Troy finally managed to get his paw over to the clock radio. Twenty-five out today? Just thinking about it made him wrap his blanket even closer as he reluctantly got up from his perfect temperature bed. He thought of waiting at the bus stop at five in the morning.... and decided he'd make some hot chocolate to start off his day.

Shuffling to the cramped kitchen and still in his blanket, he turned on the stove and placed a small kettle of water on top. Then he made his way to the living room window and pulled up the shades. Piercing sunlight spilled into the room, casting everything into an orange gold hue. It provided little warmth, but Troy enjoyed basking in it anyway. He took a deep breath as he stood watching the sun climb valiantly over the horizon. The snow that had fallen earlier last night made the outside nearly blinding with the mornings reflected light. Fresh, white snow. Perfect for new beginnings, for changes. He nodded to himself. Today would be a good day, he decided. Just stick to the plan and everything will go great. Maybe more than great. Maybe.. horrible. His ears went flat, maybe it'll be an awful mistake of a day and he'll wish he'd just driven off a cliff instead. He pulled his blanket over his head and groaned. Of course things would fail! He's never shown the slightest inkling of anything! Best just to keep things stable. Nice and smooth, until the right moment presented itself....right?

The sudden whistling of the kettle caused him to jump. Sighing, he headed back toward the kitchen to make his hot chocolate. On the way, he stopped near the front door and cranked the thermostat on the wall to eighty degrees. He frowned. He probably wasn't supposed to do that, heating bills were expensive. He shrugged and headed into the kitchen, taking the kettle off the stove.

A couple minutes later, steaming mug in hand, he returned to his room and sat at the neatly kept desk in the back corner. HQ, as he sometimes referred to it in his head. Troy rested his mug on the desk and picked up a large green note book; one of a dozen stacked on one corner of the desk, and flipped it open to a bookmarked place near the middle. Troy had always kept records and plans of everything he wanted to do since he was a pup. As far as he was concerned, if a task was not written down it could not be done, and that was all there was to it. Looking down at the worn page, he again felt apprehension as he reviewed the schedule for today.

Telling Shadow the Truth

Phase 1: Just tell him, write a letter, flowers? Just kiss that stupid..

Phase 1: Head to Silver Creek Café, Order two caramel lattes (extra foam on top! He loves that stuff)

Phase 2: Suggest movie, dinner, Ice fishing trip over holiday break (enjoys outdoors)

Phase 3: Around campfire, tell the truth about yourself. Might need alcohol for that

Needed items: fishing rods, camping gear, car/four wheel rental? Food

Remember to send dad a message. $2000 enough?

Troy gazed down at the page in uncertainty. Was he sure about this? It could all go so horribly wrong. He leaned back in his chair and took a sip of his chocolate. Shadow was a good friend, probably the only one he'd find in this place. He didn't want to screw that up. Not after all it had taken to get Shadow to finally talk to him. Near his note books on the desk, his cell phone buzzed and emitted the sound of chirping birds. Troy reached over and examined it. A message from Shadow was displayed: "_Class cancelled. Waste of my time. Still up for coffee when I get home?"_Troy replied in the affirmative, shaking his head. One of the quickest ways to annoy Shadow was to make him feel like he'd wasted time. Subjects of the past or future were no good either. Not unless you wanted to see Shadows impression of the Amazing Wolf with No Voice. It was as if, for him, the only thing that mattered was what he was doing now. Shadow had told him a little about his problems. About being sick and the medicine he had to take all the time. But there still seemed to be something deeper, something he was still unable to put into words. Maybe, after today, he'd feel like he could be more open. Hopefully. If things went well.

Troy sighed and got up, leaving his half full mug on the desk. If Shadow was heading back early, then he'd better start getting ready. Walking into the bathroom, he stripped off his grey t-shirt and his red and green plaid pajamas. He turned on the hot water in the shower, then turned and took stock of himself in the small mirror hanging over the cracked bathroom sink. He wasn't really a stunner, as far as the male wolf specimen went. He tried to be healthy, but it wasn't exactly on his mind all the time. He stood at about '5"7 and his muscular build might be described politely as "wiry". The only thing he was really proud of was his fur; which he meticulously tried to maintain bright and sleek.

He flexed his arms, turning slightly to the right. He wished he had a more powerful looking chest and stomach. He tried flexing his Pecs, like those impressive body builders on television, but they stubbornly refused his commands. Feeling ridiculous, he stepped into the shower and closed the glass door. The hot water running down his white fur felt great. After soaping up his body a bit, he simply stood and let the cascade of water run down his chest for a while, letting his mind relax and wander.

There was a gentle knock at the bathroom door, followed by Shadows deep velvety voice. "Troy..? You in here?" Troy, surprised, turned and opened the shower door a crack. "Yeah, what are you doing in here Shadow?" Shadow moved further into the bathroom, "I just really needed to talk to you about something." He said. "Well..I'm in the shower right now, so.." Troy started saying but Shadow cut him off. "Good." He said and opened the shower door wide. Troy was too stunned for words. There was Shadow, quickly removing his clothes right in front of him!

The first thing that came to his mind was how much taller he was than Troy; maybe six feet to his five. He stared at that thick, dark fur covering Shadows large, strong body. How long had he wanted to run his paws through that perfect coat? Trying to take this entire wonderful image in; his eyes travelled over Shadows broad chest, his abs and stomach. He hungrily absorbed the vision of Shadows hips and bottom, his brush like tail with the little curl only at the very tip. Finally, his gaze settled lower at Shadows balls and slowly growing member. Troy didn't think he'd seen anything more enticing, as his heart rate seemed to triple and his own lower regions began to respond in kind. Not overly large, they were so perfectly proportioned to his pleasing body, it seemed Shadow hadn't been born as much as he had been sculpted by a master artisan. Troy was completely breathless. "What do you think?" Shadow said, somewhat teasingly. "I...uhh...good." Was all Troy was able to manage. Shadow chuckled as he stepped into the shower with Troy and closed the door behind him.

The shower was small, really only built for one. Therefore, when Shadow was turning back from closing the glass door, Troy couldn't help but feel the touch of Shadows member sliding across his wrist; which caused an electric tingle to shoot through his whole body. "I've wanted this for a while now..." Shadow whispered as he gently put his left paw on Troy's chest, coming even closer and pushing Troy's back and shoulders up against the shower wall. "M..Me too..." Troy said, swallowing. Without hesitation, Shadow softly grasped the back of Troy's head and pulled him into a deep kiss. Every muscle in Troy's body seemed to melt with the deliciousness of it; his arms wrapped around Shadow and pulled him tight against his chest. This caused Shadow to open his eyes and smile, their muzzles still touching. That image: Shadow's pleased smile, the running water making his black coat shine and complement those twinkling amber eyes, caused Troy's arousal to skyrocket to unprecedented levels. Shadow gave the tip of Troy's nose a playful lick, then ambled the paw resting on his chest down to Troy's member, now fully erect and out of its sheath. "A..aah..." Troy breathed out huskily, as Shadow stroked its underside with the tips of his paw. "You like that?" Shadow said, pulling his head back slightly and slowly cocking his head to the right. "Oh...yeah..." Troy replied, his mind still swimming. "Hmmm..." Shadow said, leaning close. He whispered directly into Troy's ear "I think you'll like this too..." Shadow then bent his muzzle to Troy's neck and began to gleefully apply soft little bites up and down its length. At the same time, his paw fully grasped Troy's member and began deftly sliding from the tip down to the base and back again. "H, Holy....shit....Shadow..." Troy managed to get out. Shadow only laughed softly, and increased the tempo of his ministrations. Troy's paws slipped down and held tight to the pleasing texture of Shadow's ass; more to keep himself upright against the tidal wave of euphoria crashing around within him than anything else. Shadow seemed to like it though; he uttered a lustful growl and increased the speed of his paw another notch. After a few more moments of this, Troy couldn't stand any more. He felt his stomach clench and the area between his legs tighten. "Oh, fffuck...!" He uttered, then lifted his head straight back and gasped as his seed exploded out of him. Four long strands landed against Shadow's chest, running down his fur. Troy felt like toppling over, but barely managed to keep his legs under him. He gazed up at Shadow, who was slowly panting and grinning back at him. "Shadow...." Troy said pulling in deep breaths, "I think... I love yo-UAAGH!!"

Troy yelped and began furiously blinking out the stinging soap that had run into his eyes. Putting his face to the water, he vigorously shook his head until he was able to regain his vision. Afterward, he looked down between his legs, then over at the cum on the side of the shower wall. Leaning back and slowly banging his head against the wall, he whimpered in frustration. Today was going to be more difficult than he thought. He had to keep his head straight if any of THAT was to be in any possible future. He had to be cool and collected. Troy reached out a paw and switched the handle of the shower all the way over to "Cold".

He cringed as water seemingly imported straight from the bowels of a glacier poured across his body. He endured a solid minute of torture before stepping out of the shower, shivering. Shimming the water off the tips of his fur, Troy wrapped himself in a towel and went to get dressed. Shadow would be by in an hour or so. Then....Well, he guessed they'd see what happened afterward.
