Chapter 13 "Surprises Everywhere"

It was such a blissful feeling, sleeping with another person. The feeling of their warm body next to your's giving you comfort and pleasant dreams through the night. That was how Max felt right now, curled up in Aiden's bed, her mind full of pleasant dreams and feelings.

That contentment was unfortunately shattered by a sudden, ear piercing buzzing. She groaned as she curled up and covered her ears, not ready to wake up yet. "No, I don't wanna get up."

Suddenly a warm body pressed up behind her as Aiden's arm reached over her, fumbling with the alarm clock for a bit. As soon as silence filled the room, Aiden let his arm fall, draped over the skunk as he returned to sleep. Max smiled and snuggled against him, loving the feel of him against her, even with the morning wood against the small of her back. She just sighed and shut her eyes, falling back to sleep. Sleep felt even better when someone was snuggled right up against you.

Max got to enjoy that feeling for about ten minutes, before the wretched buzzing once again filled the room, waking them both again, This time Aiden shut the alarm off and rolled onto his back with a groan, rubbing his eyes before sitting up in the bed.

"What was that?" Max moaned as she pulled the covers over her head. "What time is it?"

"That was my alarm." Aiden answered with a yawn. "It helps people get up at six in the morning when they need to go to work during the day." He was already crawling over her to get out of bed, which further disturbed the girl.

"Well I don't like it." She grumbled from beneath the covers. "No one should have to get up to such an annoying sound."

"If you sleep in here, you have to deal with it." Aiden said before yawning again. "It's off now, so you can sleep in peace. I need to hit the shower."

Max had pretty much already fallen back to sleep before he had even left the room, the warmth of his bed enveloping her and lulling her back to slumber. She remained there until some new noises woke her up yet again, and the skunk opened her eyes to quite the treat.

Aiden had returned from his shower and was now wrapped in a towel as he gathered his clothes for the day. She had to admit, the fox was damn sexy. She had no complaints to seeing that view first thing in the morning.

Either Aiden didn't realize that Max was awake, or he had forgotten she was there, but without a second though he pulled the towel away to dry his hair, giving Max a sneak peek at his manhood. 'Hot damn!' She bit her lip, trying not to make a sound as he got dressed. 'If it's that big when limp... damn, Cheryl's lucky.'

She giggled to herself and quickly shut her eyes, pretending to sleep as he finished getting dressed and left. At least now they were even for the time he peeked at her. But still... 'How is he so big? It must be huge when he's hard. I don't know whether to be impressed or frightened.' She giggled through a yawn as sleep tried to take her again. Max rolled over in the bed, curling into the sheets and smelling Aiden's scent all around her. It was too soothing to resist, and the skunk was once again sleeping happily in no time.

Aiden hummed along with The Eagles as he droves his delivery truck. It was a good day to be outside, with the bright sun shining high in the sky, and a comfortable breeze keeping him cool. The fox was in a pretty good mood until he saw the address of his next delivery: the art supply store where Jacob worked.

Aiden stopped humming as he thought about the raccoon. He hadn't seen Jacob since that night, when they had a little too much to drink. He pulled up in front of the shop, seeing Jacob inside and he could almost feel his friend next to him, almost feel Jacob's lips...

He shook his head, clearing his mind of those thoughts. He had a job to do afterall. Taking a deep breath he grabbed the package and went inside. "Hey Jacob, I've got a delivery for you. Just one, though."

"It's probably more of the pastels we ordered." Jacob said without looking up from his sketchpad. He was blushing a bit and seemed distracted, but Aiden didn't notice, as usual. "Just give me a moment and I'll sign for it."

Aiden just nodded, standing around and looking about the store idly as Jacob finished whatever he was working on. Every now and then his eyes would glance at Jacob, and hazy memories of that night would return to his mind. He couldn't deny that he had enjoyed the attention, the touch, but he was drunk that night. 'Yeah, it was just the alcohol messing with my head.' He reasoned. 'Besides... I'm with Cheryl now.'

"Alright." Jacob finally closed his sketchpad, blushing a bit more as he looked at Aiden directly. "Sorry, but sometimes I just have to finish a drawing, or it gets messed up."

"No problem." Aiden chuckled as he handed over the package, letting Jacob sign for it. "I get the same way when I'm writing."

"Yeah. How's that going anyway?" Jacob casually asked as he opened the box, confirming it was indeed the pastels. "Have you made any progress?"

"Oh, yeah a little bit. I've been going in a new direction, and I think it's going well."

"That's great. You'll have to let me read it sometime."

"Of course." Aiden forced a smile. Then they both went quiet, an awkwardness falling between them. Despite trying to act normal, neither one could forget what had happened that night. "Well... I better get going." Aiden chuckled, feeling the strong urge to get out of there.

"Yeah, alright." Jacob nodded. The raccoon took a deep breath, watching the fox leave. "Hey, we should hang out sometime. Wanna do something tonight?"

Aiden paused at the door, silent for a few seconds, before turning with a smile on his face. "Sure. But I can't tonight. How about Friday? We'll detail it out later, okay?" He didn't wait for a response, quickly getting into his truck and driving off. "Idiot. What's wrong with you?" He cursed at himself. "It's just Jacob, you're friend. There's nothing going on, now get over it." He took a deep breath to calm his nerves, not wanting to think about it anymore.

Jacob, on the other hand, felt like he was going to throw up. He had kept his cool the whole time, but now that Aiden was gone, he could barely stand. "He... he said yes?"

"Good work, killer." Alice teased, coming out of the woodwork and scaring the crap out of Jacob. "So you finally had the balls to ask him out. That wasn't so painful, was it?"

"Don't... do that." Jacob muttered, catching his breath from the fright. "And no, it wasn't painful, but I feel like I'm gonna barf."

"Well don't do it up here." Alice laughed, patting him on the back. "But hey, you did good, and he said yes. So, what are you going to do with him, now that you have him?"

"I have no idea." Jacob admitted, finally feeling his nerves settle. "After the other night, I expected him to say no."

"Well you better come up with something. You certainly don't want to screw up this chance."

"Yeah, I know." Jacob sighed, staring out the store window. His plans had already gone ary after his last attempted. Whatever happened this time, he knew he'd have to get past any of the uncomfortable feelings between them first. 'I have to at least get things back to the way they were first. It's the only way, if I ever intend to pull him away from... her.'

Aiden wasn't the only one who managed to get out and enjoy the midsummer's day. Max had managed to finally catch up with Amy and make up for cancelling their previous date with a late lunch. Of course, she hadn't expected the collie's friends, Trish and Ling, to tag along.

Now she found herself idly sipping an iced coffee as they walked about the city, the three girls gabbing and gossiping, feeling very much like just an extra wheel. She soon found herself only half paying attention as they talked about the latest songs from their favorite artists.

"Oh my god, his new song was so sweet!" Trish was already gushing. "And did you see the music video? It was so romantic."

"I don't know." Amy shrugged. "This one was good, but I thought his last song was even better. Don't you think so, Maxi?"

"Huh?" Max suddenly started as she heard her name. "Oh, well, yeah he's pretty good, I guess." The skunk faked a smile, lying through her teeth. She had no idea who they were even talking about.

It was apparent by the look on their faces that the three of them had noticed this. "Maxi, I asked which Bruno Mars song you liked better: his newest hit, or the one before it?"

Max just stared at her blankly, not sure which songs Amy was talking about. The skunk barely paid attention to that kind of thing, just listening to whatever came on the radio. Her first instinct was to fall back into her old habits and lie to stay on their good side. But she resisted that urge, wanting to finally building true relationships with people. "I'm sorry, I'm not sure I'm familiar with either of those songs."

"You're not?" Trish gasped in disbelief. "Don't you listen to the radio, or YouTube or anything? I mean, what kind of music do you listen to?"

"She's probably more familiar with erotic dance music." Ling interrupted. "I bet you can name all kinds of songs like that, given your job."

"Well..." Max hesitated, not sure if she should feel insulted or not. Especially since it was somewhat true. The skunk was familiar with quite a few dance song from working at the club. But that still wasn't her preferred choice of music. "Actually, I do listen to the radio occasionally, but mostly I like the soundtracks from musicals."

The three girls just looked at each other, then back at Max, which only made her feel more embarrassed and isolated. 'Dammit, why didn't I just lie?'

"Well anyway," Amy quickly changed the subject, "I am so going to miss doing this with you guys when summer's over."

"I know." Ling lamented. "But at least we'll have winter break to look forward to, and the next summer. It's not like we'll never see each other again."

"What, is someone moving?" Max asked, mildly curious.

"No. Well, sorta." Amy tried to explain. "You see, we're all going to different colleges this fall, and we'll be too far apart to see each other regularly." She suddenly turned, taking Trish and Ling in a big hug. "I'm gonna miss you guys."

Max just rolled her eyes as they hugged. This was why she hated going out with her dates and their friends: someone was always left standing there feeling awkward.

"Hey, are you going to college, Maxi?" Trish asked as they broke the hug. "Y'know, just stripping to pay your way through school?"

The skunk scowled a bit at that. Another stripper stereotype. Like she didn't hear that enough from the occasional asshole client. "No, I'm not going to school." She answered flatly. "I like working as a dancer, so I'm going to stick with it."

Amy placed a hand on her arm, a slight look of concern on her face. "You... you don't think school is a waste, do you?"

Max thought about it for just a moment before shaking her head. "If going to school helps you achieve your goals in life, then it's not a waste." She looked at each of the three girls in turn, her face unusually serious. "Don't ever give up on your dreams. You'll regret it for the rest of your lives."

"Okay, we won't." Amy said at length, clinging to Max's arm while Trish and Ling shared a nervous glance. It made Amy a bit nervous too. She had been worried that something was wrong ever since Max cancelled their date the other night. Despite the skunk's protests, she knew something was bothering her. She just didn't have the courage to delve deeper.

"Oh look," Trish said, wanting to try and lighten the mood, "a bakery. Why don't we get something to eat real quick?"

They all looked up to see that the Goodwin Bakery was indeed right across the street. Max had been so lost in thought, she hadn't even noticed where they were.

It was also the site of the accident.

Max usually tried to avoid crossing at this intersection, and had actually been better about coming here over the past few years. But with those old memories resurfaced, the fear was returning, and there was no way of getting out of it now.

As they waited to cross, Max instinctively took Amy's hand, trying to stay calm. The collie just thought it was a show of affection, giving the skunk's hand a loving squeeze in return. As they crossed though, Max's grip tightened, and she kept her eyes locked to one side, watching for oncoming traffic. She didn't breath until they were safely on the other side.

"Are you alright?" Amy asked quietly, while the other's headed inside. "You seem really tense."

"Yeah, I'm fine." Max faked a smile, giving Amy's hand a squeeze. She still wasn't sure she was ready to tell the collie the truth yet. "Come on, let's go inside."

Wanting to avoid the discussion, Max put on a warm smile and led her girlfriend into the bakery. A pleasant ringing announced their entry, and they were greeted with the wonderful smell of fresh baked breads, cakes, and pastries. A few small tables and chairs sat near the front window, for any customers who wanted to stay for a bit. Max had many fond memories of playing at those tables, and of the bakery as a whole. Despite the nightmare that had occurred just outside, this place really was like a second home to her.

"Welcome to Goodwin Bakery." Cheryl started in her usual greeting as she finished restocking a display case. "What can I help... Maxi!" At the sight of her best friend, she dropped everything and rushed around the counter.

Max rushed to meet her halfway, the two hugging in the middle of the store, which irked Amy just a little bit. "How are you doing, girl?" Cheryl asked as she broke the hug. "Feeling better?"

"A bit, yeah." Max admitted with a light shrug. "I'll be alright. It's nothing I haven't dealt with before."

"Well, you know where to find me if you need me." Cheryl smiled. It was then she noticed the collie over Max's shoulder, watching them intently. "Oh! Is this her? Your new girlfriend?"

"Ah, yes." Max smiled, waving the collie over. "This is Amy. Amy, this is my best friend, Cheryl."

"Oh my god, she's cuter than you said." Cheryl suddenly gushed, giving Amy a hug. "You take good care of my Maxi now. She's like a sister to me."

"A sister?" Amy muttered, a bit relieved. "Oh, yeah. Really I'm the one who's lucky to have her though."

"Guys, I'm not that special." Max insisted through a blush. They all shared a laugh before Max gave Cheryl's arm a tug. "Can I talk to you in the back real quick?"

Cheryl paused, noticing the guilty look on the skunk's face. "Yeah, alright. Just let me get my mom to watch the front of the store."

Max nodded, following Cheryl towards the back kitchen. "Amy, could you wait here please? It'll only take a minute. Personal stuff."

"Okay. We'll just pick out some snacks or something." Amy smiled back at Max as she disappeared into the back, a middle aged tabby cat emerging to watch the store.

"Hey." Trish snuck up on her, keeping her voice low. "You haven't told her yet, have you?"

"Not yet," she admitted. "Nothing's set in stone yet. I'll tell her when it's the right time."

"Don't take too long." Her friend tried to warn her. "It'll only make it harder when you finally tell her."

"I will, okay." Amy huffed, blushing a bit. Her attention was elsewhere at the moment, her curiosity peaked. Pretending to be browsing, she made her way closer to the back door, trying to get into earshot while staying out of sight.

"So, what's up?" Cheryl asked once they were in the back kitchen. "You didn't get into another fight with your dad, did you?"

"No, nothing like that." Max chuckled, already twirling a strand of her hair between her fingers. "I just, well... I need to tell you that I sorta slept with Aiden last night."

"You what?!"

"We didn't do anything!" Max quickly clarified. "I just slept in his bed, while he was also sleeping in it."

"But," Cheryl stammered a bit, looking more confused than hurt. "But you're my best friend, and you said you weren't interested in him. Why would you do that?"

Max bowed her head a bit. "I had the dream again last night. When I woke up alone in my bed, I almost lost it. I couldn't calm down. I just, I needed to be with someone, and Aiden was the only person there." She looked up at Cheryl, a weak smiled on her face. "I panicked. I'm sorry."

"Oh, you have nothing to be sorry for." Cheryl responded, pulling the skunk into a hug. "If that's the reason, then I have no problem with it. Can't have you going into hysterics alone in the night. If Aiden can help you get back to sleep, then you go to him when you need to."

"Thank you, Cheryl." Max sighed warmly, returning the hug. "Him being there helped a lot. He's very comforting to be around."

"Really? I spend half my time arguing with him." Cheryl joked, secretly wishing it wasn't as true as it really was.

"Yeah, well, when I'm around Aiden..." She paused blushing a bit. "It's almost like I have my big brother back."

"Oh Maxi." Cheryl whimpered, hugging her friend tightly again. Something about that sentiment just seemed so sad to her. "I know, we should do something fun together, to get you back into good spirits. How about a double date?"

"Eh, what?" Max blinked a few times in confusion at that one. "People actually go on double dates? I thought that was just used on bad sitcoms."

"Of course they do." Cheryl laughed, hoping it was true. "Come on, me and Aiden and you and that cute little girlfriend of yours. It'll be fun! We can get an early dinner on say... Friday?"

"Alright." Max conceded with a sigh. "But it'll have to be pretty early, so I don't miss work."

"Don't worry, I won't keep your fans from your boobs." Cheryl joked. "It'll be fun though, I promise."

"I don't doubt it." Max rolled her eyes with a grin as she made her way back toward the front of the story. "Oh, and by the way, I may have accidentally seen Aiden's thing this morning, too. If it's that big soft, there is no way you can take that whole thing hard."

"Shut up! I take it just fine!" Cheryl stammered, blushing heavily and glancing over at her mother, hoping she hadn't heard any of that.

They almost crashed into Amy as they returned to the storefront, who seemed to be quite interested in some fresh danishes. "Hey Amy," Max smiled. "Are you free on Friday?"

"Huh? Oh yeah I should be." The collie squeaked, trying to act like she didn't know the question was coming. "Why?"

"We're going out with Cheryl and Aiden for an early dinner." She explained, wrapping an arm around her girlfriend. "Speaking of doing things early, do you want to head back to my place for a bit? I'll let you do what you love so much."

Amy blushed heavily at the implication, her eyes instantly going down Max's cleavage. "Yeah, okay."

"Glad to hear it." Max smirked, then glanced over her shoulder at Cheryl. "I gotta go get ready for work now. I'll talk to you later, girl."

"I'm leaving too." Amy stuttered nervously at her friend's, who exchanged knowing smirks "I'll talk to you guys later."

As they made their way out of the store, Amy couldn't help but glance at her girlfriend with a bit of curiosity. Something was definitely going on that the skunk was keeping secret from her. What was all this about dreams and sleeping with brothers? She was determined to find out, after she got her nearly daily dose of skunk tit, anyway.

---

"This was a nice surprise." Cheryl beamed as Aiden let her into the apartment later that very evening. On a whim, Aiden had picked her up after work with the promise of a quiet night together. His attempt at showing the Torgi that he could be more romantic and expressive. "So, are we going back out to eat, or are you treating me to more of your cooking?"

"I have a meal planned that I think you'll like." Aiden smiled as he made his way up to his room to change. "I'll get started on it as soon as I come back down."

"Actually, can I borrow your shower real quick?" Cheryl asked as she examined the matted fur on her arms. "I was working in the kitchen before you picked me up, and I feel all dirty and sweaty."

"Go ahead." The fox shrugged before disappearing into his room. Cheryl skipped a bit as she made her way into the bathroom, humming to herself as she stripped down and started the water. Aiden really had surprised her and made her day when he had whisked her away from the bakery for a romantic evening for two. It was exactly the kind of thing she wanted from her boyfriend, and she felt absolutely giddy as she stepped into the warm water, letting it cascade over her and soak soothingly into her fur.

She felt so relaxed that she practically jumped out of her skin when Aiden suddenly pulled the shower curtain aside. "Aiden! You scared me! What are you... oh." Cheryl stopped herself, a smile forming as she noticed he was naked.

"I thought about it, and a shower sounded pretty good." The fox commented casually as he stepped in behind her. "Might as well take one together, right?"

"Hm, that does sound good." The hybrid smiled suggestively. "We can help each other with those hard to reach spots." She giggled as she turned back around, looking for the shampoo. There were a couple of nondescript bottles, clearly the type a guy would buy, buried in a multitude of name brand shower products in a wide variety of fruity or flowery scents. "Wow, Maxi really took over." She giggled, grabbing a mango scented shampoo.

"You can just use my stuff." Aiden offered as he soaked in the water. "I don't know if Max will like it if you use her fancy stuff."

"Oh she won't mind If I use her stuff. We've always been okay with borrowing each other's things." She paused and smirked, swapping the bottle for one with a hibiscus scent. "She certainly didn't hesitate to sleep with my boyfriend."

Aiden froze at that as panic seized him. "She... she told you about that?" He stammered, trying to find his voice. "Cheryl, it's not what you think. We didn't do anything, I swear. You see, she had a bad dream, and-"

"Aiden, it's okay." Cheryl interrupted with a chuckle. "Maxi explained everything, and it's fine. In fact, I'm glad you were able to help her. She needs someone around she can trust for when she has that dream."

She smiled warmly at the man, feeling a strong fondness for him at that moment. He wasn't just handsome and passionate. He was also kind and caring. Cheryl found herself blushing at his inquisitive look, smiling wistfully. She quickly tried to shake it off, handing a bottle of shampoo to Aiden. "Will you wash my hair?" She asked meekly.

"Of course."Aiden smiled as he took the bottle. Soon Cheryl was moaning softly as she felt the fox's strong fingers massage her scalp. She loved it when other people washed her hair, the feeling sending strong, soothing ripples down her spine.

Aiden certainly wasn't complaining, thinking this to be exactly the sort of thing Cheryl wanted from him. Besides, he actually rather liked the Torgi's unique hair coloring: a dirty blonde with natural streaks of white and dark brown, matching her hybrid fur colors. It was also quite soft, and Aiden smiled at how much she enjoyed such a simple yet intimate interaction.

Eventually the fox's hands began to wander, massaging into the back of Cheryl's neck, then her shoulders. She was purring contentedly at this point, mere putty in his hands. Aiden let his fingers dance across her back a bit, the bathing turning into a slow yet passionate foreplay that had Cheryl moaning and gasping, lost in his touch. Aiden stepped closer then, wrapping his arms around her smaller frame, continuing with the play of washing her fur as his hands gently kneaded her breasts.

"Oh, Aiden." Cheryl moaned, leaning into him and instantly feeling his thick manhood pressing against the small of her back. This was exactly the kind of random, passionate type of thing she liked, and right now the Torgi was in bliss. Between his hands massaging and lathering her body, and the feel of the warm water, her body was completely relaxed.

Maybe a bit too relaxed, she realised as Aiden gently massaged her stomach. "Uh, Aiden, I'm sorry but I have to go."

"Go?" Aiden quirked an eyebrow. "But you're covered in soap. You can't leave now."

"No, you idiot." Cheryl stammered, blushing slightly as she rocked from one paw to the other. "I have to go pee."

"So, go ahead and pee." Aiden suggested as he nuzzled into her neck, keeping his arms wrapped around her. "I don't care if you do that in the shower. I do it all the time."

"B-but..." Cheryl whimpered a bit, feeling the need becoming quite urgent as Aiden held her close. 'Does he really want me to do this?' She blushed heavily at the thought, not sure how she felt about that. But it didn't really matter, she realised, as a sharp pain in her abdomen called for her full attention. "F-fine... idiot, but I don't know if I can with you watching."

"Just relax." Aiden whispered, holding her close. "It's not like I'm really watching. I don't care if you go in the shower or not. It just seems easier this way."

Cheryl whimpered at that, leaning into the tall fax and closing her eyes. She was going now, no matter what. She had to too badly to hold back any longer. A soft moan escaped her lips as she finally let go, the strong, musky scent of her pee filling the room. She had to admit to herself, as she glanced down at the stream pouring forth from her dick, that it was kind of relaxing to do it in the shower while in Aiden's embrace.

Aiden just held her as she relieved herself, finding the scent strangely intoxicating. he become so lost it it, that it took him a moment before he noticed the warmth spreading across his legs. Aiden glanced down to see another stream of pee showering his paws. "Wait, you go from both sides?"

"Of... of course." Cheryl stammered, blushing heavily as Aiden brought her back to reality. "Both are fully functioning, with all the parts they're supposed to have. Why wouldn't I pee through both?"

Aiden shrugged, holding her close and afraid he may have insulted her. The fox went back to lathering her fur, nuzzling into her ear. "You feel better?"

"A bit." Cheryl purred, having finished relieving herself. "But I bet you could help me feel even better." She reached behind her, gently stroking Aiden's dick, purring as she felt it grow in her hand. She smirked as she remembered her talk with Maxi earlier. The skunk had seen this, and been impressed. But she hadn't seen it hard and at full size. Still, Cheryl was kind of proud, wanting to gloat about her boyfriend's impressive endowment.

She realized there might be a problem though, as Aiden wrapped his arms tighter around Cheryl, pressing against her back, his dick rubbing against her lower back. 'He's too tall for this.' She lamented. 'My feet wouldn't even touch the ground if I was on that thing.'

She glanced over her shoulder and instantly knew that Aiden had come to a similar realization. His face was locked in thought, a look she had only ever seen him make when writing before. This was the first time she had ever seen him think this hard about her, and it made her heart flutter.

A smirk suddenly crossed Aiden's face as an idea came to mind. Without a word he turned Cheryl around so the two were facing, gently placing his hands around her hips. "You may want to hold on to me."

"Why would I, HEY!" She suddenly yelped as Aiden lifted her into the air with ease, resting her against his chest. She quickly wrapped her arms around his neck, hanging on for dear life. "Aiden! What the hell are you doing?"

"Solving a problem." He grinned, and it was then that Cheryl felt his dick throbbing beneath her ass. She was practically sitting on it. It was a new and rather thrilling experience for her, perched so high in the air with nothing but Aiden's strong arms keeping her aloft.

The fox's solution was obvious, too, as he lifted her even higher. Cheryl moaned, purring softly, as the head of Aiden's shaft poked against her. Without need for words, she reached down, helping to hold the fox in position while he slowly lowered her. The hybrid gasped as she was penetrated, once again wrapping her arms around her lover as she felt him slide deeper inside.

"I think I like this solution." Cheryl purred, nuzzling into Aiden's neck as he held her close. "It's like I'm floating while you do me." She wrapped her legs around his waist, rocking her hips to better feel him. "I've never done it like this before."

"Neither have I." Aiden admitted, taking a firm grip on her thighs. "Hopefully this works." Slowly he lifted her up, then back down again, moaning softly as he felt the velvety folds of her pussy slide along her length, waves of pleasure coursing through both their bodies.

"Oh, it's already so deep." Cheryl purred, licking at Aiden's neck as she felt him push against the back of her pussy. God he was so big, and with gravity pulling her down on him he felt even bigger. And she was loving every slow, agonizing second of it as her lover continued to slowly lift and drop her. "Yes, right there... faster."

"Not sure if I can." Aiden huffed, the act of keeping her up and steady proving to be more of a distraction than he thought. "You're really slippery from all the soap and water."

"The wall," Cheryl moaned, "brace me against the wall. Oh, Aiden, fuck me hard!"

Growling a bit but loving the idea, Aiden turned, pinning Cheryl's back to the shower wall and pushing in balls deep in the process. The Torgi gasped out in pleasure, her nails digging into Aiden's back as he began thrusting in harder and faster, water splashing in every direction. The feel of her fingers digging into his back caused the fox to growl even deeper, thrusting in so hard that Cheryl was sliding up and down the wall.

"Oh, Aiden... f-fuck!" Cheryl could barely hold on, lost in the feel of weightlessness as the hot water fell over their bodies. She dug her claws into his back, squeezing her thighs around his hips and encouraging him on even more. "Yes! Fuck me, Aiden! Make me cum!"

Aiden didn't need to be told twice. Pressing tight against her, Aiden took advantage of his length, pulling almost all the way out before thrusting in balls deep. Unable to stop growling, he kept up the pace, encouraged by her wails of pleasure.

"Aiden! Fuck! Aiden!" Cheryl cried out, arching into him as an incredible orgasm rocked her body. Her own cum shot out in thick streams on both their chests as her pussy tightened around his dick, trying desperately to milk it. "F-fuck! More! Give me more!"

"No... problem..." Aiden growled, gritting his teeth as he held on for as long as he could, despite how tight her pussy had gotten. The thick smell of her semen soon filled the air as she kept trying to cum with each of his thrusts, her eyes rolling back in her head as she became lost in orgasmic ecstasy.

"F-fuck!" Aiden growled, his entire body tensing up. "Cheryl, I'm gonna... fuck!" The fox suddenly thrust in balls deep, the tip of his dick practically puncturing the smaller girl as he finally came, filling her tiny pussy with his thick cum. Cheryl cried out, fully cumming again as she was filled, her mind completely lost in the bliss. Her body jerked loosely in the air as Aiden pumped his seed into her, his thick cream overflowing to run down his legs and splash on the shower floor.

Cheryl was barely aware of anything after that, hanging limply as Aiden lifted her off his dick, more thick cum splattering to the floor and running down her legs. She purred softly as he held her close, his arms being the only thing keeping her standing. But she didn't care. Her limp body was only further proof of how great a lover Aiden was, and she loved every minute of it.

Aiden smiled as he felt his lover nuzzle into his chest, leaning against him for support. It felt like his attempts were really working, that he and Cheryl really could work things out. And the best part was, the night was still young. The fox still had more planned for this wonderful evening.

It took quite a while for them to get out of the shower after that, given the mess they had made. Cheryl couldn't stop giggling after that, once she came to, her legs feeling like rubber and her stomach feeling rather full. But each of her sighs were satisfied ones. "Best fuck, ever."

The evening continued on in a good light, with Aiden treating Cheryl to a wonderful, homemade dinner. The meal was filled with idle chit chat and romantic nonsense, and they both were enjoying themselves. "We'll have to do this more often." Aiden mused. "Perhaps have a date night once a week."

"That sounds great, actually." Cheryl agreed as she nommed on her pasta. "Oh, speaking of dates, you and I are going out on a double with Maxi and Amy on Friday. That girl is so cute, by the way."

"Alright. Wait, this Friday? No, I can't. I already made plans."

"You did?" Cheryl pouted at that. "But, can't you change them? This double date was my idea, and I don't want to back out of it now."

Aiden just shrugged. "Sorry, but I already promised Jacob I'd spend time with him on Friday."

Cheryl's ears flattened as her pout turned into a scowl. Jacob was the one Max had warned her about, and she wasn't so sure she liked the idea of him alone with her Aiden. "Well, I guess you'll just have to cancel your plans with Jacob then, because you'll be out with me."

Aiden paused at that one, as it sounded more like a demand than a request. "I'm sorry, Cheryl, but I made my plans with Jacob first. Perhaps if you had asked me before making plans on my behalf, we wouldn't be in this situation." He sounded snarky and he knew it, but Aiden didn't particularly care for being ordered around like that.

Cheryl just let out a heavy breath in response, an indignant look on her face. "I don't think I like the idea of you hanging out with Jacob, alone." She admitted. "Maybe I should come along. Never hurts to have your girlfriend around."

"Cheryl, Jacob is one of my closest friends, and I've known him a hell of alot longer than you." Aiden countered, managing to keep his voice calm. "If I want to hang out with one of my friends, then I will, girlfriend or not."

"I don't know if I like Jacob..."

"Cheryl..." Aiden started to argue, when his cellphone went off. Thankful for an excuse to end this conversation, he quickly answered it. "Hey Marcus, what's up?" After a few moments of listening, his demeanor changed to one of shock. "Really?... Yeah, I'll help in any way I can. Friday?" He glanced at Cheryl. "No, I'm hanging out with Jacob that night. Want to join us? Well alright, another time perhaps... Yeah that works... Right, I won't say anything. Talk to you later."

With a quiet chuckle he hung up the phone and returned to quietly eating.

"So, what was that about?" Cheryl asked somewhat coldly. "If you're making more plans, you should let me know."

"Nothing. No plans yet." Aiden answer curtly. "I'll keep you posted on my availability."

A soft growl emanated from deep in Cheryl's chest at that, which Aiden either didn't hear, or ignored. She scowled as she stared at her half finished dinner, her appetite gone, the mood ruined. With a sigh she put her fork down and stood. "Aiden, I'd like to go home now."

"Fine." Aiden said casually as he finished chewing. He wasn't feeling very romantic anymore, anyway. And he certainly didn't want to spend time with someone who wanted to cut him off from his friends. Without another word he got his keys and drove Cheryl home. The entire night was over.

Growling quietly, Cheryl avoided her parents when she got him, saying she was tired and going straight to bed. "Dammit, Aiden, why'd it have to be Jacob?" She muttered and fumed to herself, sitting up in bed and hugging her pillow. "Well, you better not try anything funny with my Aiden, 'coon, or you'll feel my wrath. I just started really getting close to the guy. I refuse to let him go so easily."

It was taking more self control than Jacob cared to admit to keep his calm demeanor as he watching Aiden pace around a few feet away, talking on the phone with Marcus about something apparently urgent. It felt to him that the week had taken a month to pass, but it was finally Friday night and his date with Aiden had finally started.

'No, not a date.' The raccoon had to remind himself. 'We're just two friends hanging out. Totally normal. nothing gay or anything.' Of course, Jacob didn't even have anything planned for the evening. He knew he could never get away with the things he really wanted to do, and everything else he came up with seemed like the usual cliche, bad date material. So now he was stuck with nothing.

After a few minutes Aiden put his phone away, chuckling to himself. "Sorry about that, Jacob. So, what's the plan for tonight?"

"Oh, no problem." Jacob shrugged casually, still not sure how to answer that question. "So, um, what did Marcus want?" He asked, hoping to stall for more time to think.

"He just needed some advice about something." Aiden answered vaguely with an innocent grin, clearly not willing to say anymore. This did pique the raccoon's curiosity, but he wasn't willing to push it. Not tonight. He still had to come up with something to do afterall.

Ultimately it was Aiden who suggested that they just chill at Jacob's place, drink some beers and watching some classic sci fi movies. They spent hours watching and analyzing some of their favorites, and it was a good, distracting evening for both of them. By the end of the first movie, Aiden had forgotten about his fight with Cheryl and Jacob had forgotten to be nervous. They were just two friends enjoying each other's company.

After several movies, Aiden let out a yawn. "Damn, it's after midnight already? I should be heading home."

"Are you sure?" Jacob asked, sounding a bit more down by that thought than he meant to. While Aiden had been careful about how much he drank, Jacob hadn't held back as well as he would have liked, and was now feeling a bit loose. "You can crash here tonight, y'know, since it's so late."

"I dunno, I'm good to drive." Aiden yawned again, standing up with a stretch. "Besides, Cheryl might get mad if she finds out I slept here tonight." He couldn't keep the disdain from his voice, didn't even try.

"Fighting again?" Jacob tried not to sound hopeful as he stood, placing a hand on his friend's shoulder. "But, uh, why would she be mad if you stayed here?"

"She didn't want me to come here at all." Aiden said with a derisive snort. "She's all mad because I wouldn't go on some stupid double date with Max. I'm sorry, but you can't just make plans like that behind my back and then expect me to drop everything for them."

Jacob just nodded, trying to appear neutral. Inside he was panicking. Did Cheryl know of his intents, his deeper desires? Or was she just the jealous type? Either way, it seemed to be working in his favor tonight.

Feeling brave, and a little bold from the alcohol, Jacob stepped closer to Aiden, placing both his hands on the fox's broad shoulders. "It sounds like she doesn't trust you. I don't mean to butt in, but I think trust is a very important quality in any relationship." He looked deeply into his friend's eyes, trying to keep his voice sincere, though he knew Aiden was likely too oblivious to pick up on any ulterior motives. "Do you really want to be with a jealous lover, or would you rather be in a relationship based on trust and understanding?"

Aiden let out a sigh as he pondered the question. "Not really much of a choice there. Obviously, anyone would want to be trusted."

"Then maybe you should find someone who really trusts you."

"But I like being with her." Aiden argued, turning away and rubbing his eyes. "I like it when we aren't fighting, anyway. When we get along, it's pretty good. But even then we usually end up arguing over something. The only time we aren't arguing is when we're having sex, which has always been good."

Jacob winced at that comment. He hated to think of Aiden sleeping with anyone. But the 'coon swallowed his nerves and stepped closer, standing behind Aiden and placing his hands comfortingly on the man's shoulder's "Sex is just a small part of a good relationship. You're a great guy, Aiden. You deserve to be with someone who makes you happy all the time. And there are plenty of people who would do anything to have a guy like you... even me."

"I'm nothing special." Aiden shrugged. "I just want someone who appreciates me for who I am, and wants me for more than just my body. Lately that's all anyone really seems interested in." He glanced over his shoulder at Jacob, giving him a half hearted smile. "Thanks, but I'll be alright, I'm sure. Cheryl and I will work things out. We usually do."

"But Aiden, you deserve better than that." Jacob insisted, pressing right up against Aiden's back. "You shouldn't have to settle for someone who makes you this upset. Not when there's someone who wants to treat you right standing right next to you."

"Jacob?" Aiden's ears twitched as the realization finally hit him. "Wait, you don't mean..."

"I'm sorry." Jacob whimpered, burying his face into Aiden's back. "I've... kinda had a crush on you for years now. You're just so handsome and so caring." Jacob sighed. Finally letting his feelings spill out felt good, even if it meant possibly losing Aiden forever. It was too late to back out now though.

"Jacob..." Aiden turned around, facing his friend. "How long have you felt this way? Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

Jacob just shrugged at first, suppressing a sniffle. "I thought you were straight. You thought you were straight. There was no point in even mentioning it if there was no chance it would go anywhere." He turned his gaze back to Aiden, an almost hopeful look in his gray eyes. "But, now you're more open, right? Even if you're just bi-curious, there could be a chance for... us?"

"Well..." Aiden hesitated, not really sure what to say. How had he never noticed this before? Was he really as oblivious as everyone said? And now Jacob was confessing all of this to him. Perhaps Cheryl had been right to be worried. But then, didn't she trust him to remain faithful, even with a confession like this? All he could do was sigh as he looked into his friend's misty eyes. "Jacob, I'm with Cheryl right now."

"But she makes you so unhappy." Jacob was quick to argue, grasping Aiden's shirt. "Why not just dump here? I know you better than she does. I know what to expect from you, and I know what makes you happy."

"I'm not sure I'm ready to give up on her just yet, though," Aiden admitted. "I feel like I owe her a lot, and I don't want to give up just because things are tough."

Jacob pressed in closer, breathing a bit heavier as he felt more daring. "Aiden, I can make you feel way better than she can, and you'd never have to worry about things being tough. Just give me a chance to show you."

"But... I'm with Cheryl." Aiden repeated, though with far less conviction. He could feel his own heart racing as Jacob came onto him, remembering the other night with more fondness than he cared to admit. Still, he had his principles. "I won't cheat on her, Jacob."

"I know." Jacob whispered, shaking a bit as he stepped in close, their chests touching. "I won't make you, Aiden. I love this honest, caring side of you, and I'd never ruin that." Despite his words, Jacob pressed closer, his lower lip quivering. "I know it's selfish of me, but could I at least take just one thing from you?" The raccoon's heart was pounding in his chest, and he needed to take a deep breath to keep himself steady, taking in the fox's musk in the process. "Aiden, could I just have one kiss?"

"Jacob..." Aiden wanted to protest, wanted to push his friend away. But something inside wouldn't let him. His hands found his way into Jacob's hips, his own lips parting slightly at the anticipation of Jacob's caress. "Just... one kiss." He agreed in a hot, hesitant whisper, instinctively pulling his friend closer.

"Just... one..." Jacob reiterated, before finally pressing in. Their lips met and both men moaned softly, Jacob wrapping his arms around Aiden's neck, holding him close. Aiden had no intention of pulling back just yet though. His head tilted to one side slightly, allowing their lips to glide and lock together passionately.

Jacob didn't want it to end. Aiden's lips felt even better than he had ever dreamed, and he moaned with hidden passion from the embrace, even daring to let his tongue dart out and trace along Aiden's lips.

It was then that Aiden finally pulled back, panting and blushing heavily. He looked into Jacob's eyes, seeing a bit of panic and disappointment there, as well as something more. "Just one kiss." Aiden stated again, somewhat firmly. Though he didn't push Jacob away. He was too busy fighting the urge to pull him back in.

Jacob nodded, also resisting the urge to press in again. He had gotten his kiss; he didn't want to push his luck. "Thanks, Aiden. it was better than I could have hoped for." Jacob blushed at that, finally stepping away. "So, are you sure you don't want to just crash here tonight?"

Aiden caved and agreed after that, even agreeing to sleep beside Jacob in his bed, not that it was a first time for that.

The fox found himself laying there, wide awake, as Jacob slept peacefully beside him. He couldn't believe that he had allowed Jacob to kiss him. Even more, he couldn't believe how much he had enjoyed it. He had felt a deeper passion behind that kiss, and was now seriously considering his rocky relationship with Cheryl. He felt guilty for kissing someone behind her back, but not as much as he thought he should.

He glanced over at the sleeping raccoon, and seriously had to wonder if he was right. Maybe he should break up with Cheryl to be with someone who knew him better. But, could he really cast her aside so easily, after all the work they had put into this relationship? The fox sighed as he closed his eyes, hoping for sleep to come. This was going to require a lot of thought.

Cheryl stared blankly at her reflection in the mirror, still not quite awake as she brushed her teeth. It was somewhat early that morning and the Torgi was still trying to wake up. Luckily her parents wouldn't need her in the bakery for a few more hours.

She yawned as she walked back into her room, wanting to go back to sleep but resisting the urge. As she stood in the middle of her room stretching, her eyes fell on the calendar on her wall, noticing something she had recently forgotten. Seven days in a row each had a small, red mark on them, the first one being the previous Saturday. The day after that failed double date was supposed to happen. She ended up spending that night at home, with her parents.

But it was the red marks that had gotten her attention. It was now Monday, and the marks started on Saturday. Silently, she counted off some numbers on her fingers, flipping back and forth between the current month and the previous. Her eyes slowly widened as the realization finally hit her. "Oh fuck," she muttered as she glanced down at her panties, then back at the calendar, "I'm late..."
