Tik smiled as his best friend opened the door to his home. It wasn't as fancy as Tik's, not as luxurious or modern, but it was a lovely home by anyone's standards. Comfortable. Home-y. No maids, no fancy windows or game rooms, but still huge, still cozy, and with people that he knew loved to spend time with him. Tik loved it.
"Hey, Tik!" grinned the canine in the doorway.
Zone was a good six feet tall at eighteen years old, and the happiest, bubbliest guy Tik knew. When necessary, he could be completely no-nonsense, but between those infrequent times he was excitable, carefree, and positive. He was a mix between a Siberian husky and a border collie. At a glance, he looked just like a regular husky, but the border collie in him showed through in subtle ways, such as floppy eartips when he was relaxed and a black patch of fur around one of his eyes. He still had the beautiful markings and striking, heterochromatic eyes of a husky. The one strange feature was that instead of amber, the eye that wasn't blue was a bright, almost neon green. Zone always said that was just how he was born. The light pair of basketball shorts and snug undershirt he wore showed off his lean frame, his gymnast's physique, the toned muscles of his slim body.
Right away, the dog grabbed Tik and pulled him into a tight hug, his tail wagging furiously. "Good to see ya! How've you been?"
Tik smiled, hugging his excitable friend happily. "I've been alright! Took a crack at the math homework, but couldn't focus."
"Yeah, I took a look at it after you mentioned it on the phone," replied the husky, releasing Tik and walking back toward his bedroom. "Not gonna happen. Hey, my dad went out for a bit, but he'll be back later."
"Ban? Where'd he go?"
"He didn't say," said Zone, flopping onto his bed. "But he did ask me to have you text him when you figured out where you wanted to eat for your birthday."
"Aw, he knows he doesn't have to take me anywh--"
"Tiiik, you say that every year! And every year you know we're taking you, and you're happy when we do, so shut up and tell me where you want to go!"
Tik laughed. "Fine. Uhm... I don't have a preference, really. It's just fun going out to eat with you guys. Surprise me."
Zone shrugged, pulling his phone out of his shorts and tapping on the screen. "Works for me," he said.
Tik flopped onto the bed next to Zone, staring at the ceiling and listening to the rapid clicks his phone made as he texted his father.
"Good grief, you text like a teenage girl," jested Tik, poking Zone's side playfully. The dog paused his fervent tapping to push lightly at Tik's face.
"Oh yeah? Well you... you... your face!"
"My face?" chuckled Tik. "What kind of comeback is that? My face is sexy."
"Tch, my butt is sexy."
Tik raised an eyebrow. "Are you comparing my face to your butt? Why're you so random?"
"What're you talking about! It's true!" He stood up, and Tik watched in astonishment as with perfect confidence, his best friend lowered his shorts. Zone was apparently going commando that day, as his plump, perfectly round buns were bare and in full view.
"... Really?" said Tik. "Are you mooning me right now? Really?"
"Don't be mad 'cause you didn't think of it first!" Zone yapped. He grinned as he tugged his undershirt off over his head, bouncing each perky cheek playfully. Tik had seen him naked before, and knew that Zone preferred wearing light clothes, or no clothes at all. He didn't mind. On the contrary, he decided to challenge Zone's randomness.
"I swear you're gonna be a stripper someday," the panda chuckled. He stood up behind Zone, reaching forward and grabbing his rump in both paws, squeezing the two plump mounds firmly. Zone gave a yelp of surprise, his face blushing crimson.
"Ah! Hey!"
"What?" Tik laughed. "You said it was sexy, and I didn't believe you!"
Zone chuckled. "You're such a homo."
Tik's ears perked in surprise as Zone suddenly let out a very sexual, breathy, over-the-top moan. "Unnh! Ohh, Tik..." He spread his toned thighs apart and pressed backward against Tik's paws. "You're soooo good! Ohh, yeah, squeeze me...."
Tik let go of his best friend as if his paws had been burned, his face bright red. "Ack! And you called me a homo?"
"Tiiiik!" he whined, his mischievous grin betraying him as he leaned forward, his tail wagging slowly over his perfectly round behind, his full balls peeking into view between his legs. "I need yooou!"
Tik facepawed, covering his eyes and hiding the waves of laughter threatening to bubble out and end his charade of disgust. "Alright, you win! I surrender! You've out-gayed me!"
He nearly jumped out of his skin as he felt Zone's paw between his legs, squeezing his crotch. "You're the one pitchin' a tent down there," he smirked.
Tik's face might as well have been on fire for how red it became. His best friend was completely naked in front of him. That wasn't completely new, but even though it was just playing around between best bros, seeing Zone act like this, having had his paws on his body and felt him grind and gyrate against them, hearing him speak the way he was--as over-the-top as it may have been--was actually managing to turn him on. He didn't say anything as Zone's paw fondled his junk. The game needed to stop. Immediately.
But Zone seemed oblivious to the panda's discomfort, and kept going. He turned around, leaning his body back against Tik's. His firm rump pressed backward, and Tik watched in awe as the growing bulge in his shorts pressed between Zone's bubbly cheeks. "Nnn, Tiiik," he panted, his voice very needy and breathy. "Nnh! You're sooo good!"
"Z-zone," Tik gasped. He was throbbing hard now. He was shocked to find that it was getting progressively harder to resist the urge to grind his hips right back against him. His crotch was starting to dampen as his member leaked precum into his shorts. This had to stop... it just had to....
But Zone didn't seem to be stopping. The canine leaned his head back against Tik's shoulder, smiling at his friend. "Enjoying this, ya homo?"
Something was different about Zone's voice, however. The over-the-top moaning was gone, but his voice wasn't normal either. It was huskier, breathier. His eyes seemed a little less focused, and his body was still pressed firmly against Tik's.
This was something new. Tik hadn't actually seen the canine like this before. He had never been this physically close to him--to anyone--before. Zone was so warm, so bare, so... vulnerable. Part of him was embarrassed, shocked, wanted to tell Zone to get dressed and forget this ever happened. Another part of him was intrigued, curious, explorative. And yet another part....
As if they weren't his own, Tik felt his paws reach forward and settle on Zone's waist. To his amazement, the dog didn't object. He actually let out a soft sigh, and Tik could feel his body relax in his grasp. His paws slid down to Zone's hips, and his own began to grind slowly against him, his now damp bulge rubbing slowly between the round buns, eliciting soft, pleasured gasps from Zone. The panda's inhibitions melted away, and everything around him seemed to freeze and fade into nothingness, his mind focused on the canine in his arms, his paws sliding down his hips and shifting to his center, his open paw rubbing against the dripping boner that had been throbbing with need between his legs.
Zone panted softly, his head leaning back against Tik's shoulder, his face flushed, eyes half-lidded with heat and lust. He looked so... hot. Zone turned his head toward Tik's and gazed into his eyes, their muzzles parting slowly, gently coming together as if by an invisible force, an inexplicable magnetism that they could not help but obey.
Slowly, tentatively, their lips connected. It felt so surreal to him, as though he were watching the scene helplessly from outside his own body. He was kissing his best friend, and not like a quick "bro-kiss," if such a thing existed, but a deep kiss, a passionate one. His stomach was in knots. He shuddered as he felt Zone's wide tongue brush against his own. He was incredulous as he realized that his own was responding, venturing deeper into Zone's all-too-willing mouth, exploring him. One of his paws was still on Zone's cock, the other traveling up his side, across his toned torso, feeling the lean muscle beneath his skin. Zone's body was pressed against him, his hips continuing to grind firmly back against the panda's groin.
Tik's heart fluttered in his chest as for a split second he realized what was happening. It fluttered again as he realized that he didn't want it to stop.
More importantly, and more than anything, he wanted Zone, in a way he never had before.
Suddenly, Tik's ears became aware of a low rumble just outside. A 1965 Chevelle SS convertible was pulling into the driveway. Zone's father was home.
Their kiss broke, and with it the spell that had been over them. Tik's eyes stared once again into those of his best friend, and this time they were met with stunned surprise, a hint of sorrow, and much confusion.
But that would have to wait. Zone quickly grabbed his shorts and stepped back into them. Tik watched as he pressed his throbbing cock against his firm abs, tying the drawstring on the shorts and trapping it beneath the elastic waistband. He put his undershirt on again. The bulge was pretty much hidden.
Tik opened his mouth to speak, but he could find no words. His brain was playing back what had just happened. He, Tik, had had his best friend Zone in his arms... touching him... feeling him... kissing him.... How long had they been at it?
His heart skipped a beat as he glanced at the clock on Zone's wall. 5:12 PM. It hadn't changed in awhile.
"No, not again," he thought. He pulled his wallet out of his pocket and tossed it into the air. Sure enough, the moment Tik's paw was no longer pushing against it, it sat suspended in midair. Tik sighed, plucking it from its position and sliding it back into his pocket. What was going on? Was he sick? Did he eat something funny at school? Of all the things time did, stopping just wasn't one of them. Between this and what just happened with Zone, his head was spinning. Too much was going crazy at once.
At least Zone didn't seem to notice. He was so preoccupied with spraying body spray and hiding what they had been doing from his father that he didn't notice the tiny drops of body spray hovering motionlessly in midair, unaffected by any force as he waved the can around.
The bedroom door suddenly opened with a bang. Tik jumped, startled. Instantly, the droplets of body spray dissipated, spreading around the room. Somehow, he had the idea to glance up at the clock. 5:33. At some point during Tik's intimate moment with Zone, time really, truly had frozen. Either that, or he had fainted and dreamed some of what had happened.
In the doorway stood Zone's father. While unmistakably his dad, he had some physical differences from his son. Unlike Zone, he was full Siberian husky--and he was huge. He stood at a massive seven feet and seven inches tall, with a solid, muscular physique. Where Zone's legs were plantigrade, Ban's were digitigrade. His eyes were a striking ice blue, and the black markings on his soft, thick fur were those of a normal husky.
His face was naturally serious. He looked like the kind of person who would cave someone's face in for bumping into him. With his size, his serious face, and his deep, sultry, bass voice, most people found him quite intimidating. Zone's voice was light and youthful, but his father's voice was such that when he spoke, people tended to shut up and listen. Only Zone and Tik best knew how docile and friendly he truly was.
"Tik!" he said, walking straight in and scooping the seventeen-year-old up in his arms, lifting him completely off the ground. "Good to see ya!"
Tik laughed hung tightly onto the giant husky's bicep. He was way too old to be picked up like a kid, but he was used to it from Zone's dad.
"Good to see ya too, Ban! Where'd ya go? Waah!"
The husky threw the panda playfully onto Zone's bed, chuckling in his booming voice. "Nowhere special. I'm thinking of starting a little home improvement project, and I decided to scout out some stores for supplies."
"Home improvement?" scoffed Tik. "As if this place needs improving!"
Ban chuckled. "You're awesome, panda. You spending the night?"
"Y-yeah!" said Tik, suddenly a little nervous. After what had just happened between himself and Zone, was it a good idea? Even so, he rarely passed up the chance to spend the night. Ban might suspect that something was up if he said no. "If you guys'll have me!"
"Psh. Don't act like you feel we won't," said Ban. "It's like I said. Just pretend you live here. I don't even know why you still knock to come in. You have a key."
Tik shrugged. "Manners, I guess."
"Oh good, while you're at it maybe you can teach this one some of that." He gestured playfully at Zone. The younger husky threw the can of body spray at his father.
"Tch! Who needs 'em?"
Ban smiled and lifted a paw, catching the can and tossing it back to his son. "Give me an hour or so and I'll get some food in you guys," he said, turning to leave the room.
"Thanks dad!" Zone called after him, setting the can back on his dresser.
He looked up at Tik. Tik looked back, his heart pounding. How would Zone react to what happened? Would he be upset? Would things be awkward from now on?
His fears melted away as Zone let out a laugh. "Silly dad."
Tik's laugh was one of relief. Zone was still Zone. He smiled a little as he looked at his paw, blushing slightly as he realized that it was still wet with Zone's precum. Maybe things wouldn't change for the worst between them after all.
