	Crys hated being so surrounded.  The young jaguar walked through the 
crowded halls of his new school quickly, pushing past people to get to the 
office and get his new schedule.  The young freshman feline was an attractive 
sight, to say the least, with his shining golden spotted fur, long black hair, 
and beautiful green eyes, and many turned to look at him as he brushed past 
them.  He wasn't paying attention, though.  He just wanted to get his miserable 
schedule before the bell rang.
	Basically, Crys was dressed in big, black, baggy pants, a charcoal-gray 
shirt, and all black shoes.  His backpack was a sight, with patches sewn all 
over it, such as a bright-red "Psycho" patch and a black Good Charlotte one.  
These emblems decorated his black bookbag, along with a small pride flag sewn in 
near the bottom (which very few people took notice to as they inspected him).
	Finally, he rounded the corner and entered the counseling office, where he 
stood in line for nearly ten minutes to get his schedule among the other 
freshmen.  He told the woman his last name and she gave him the slip of paper 
quickly, looking at him and smiling genuinely.  He responded with a sort of 
false smile and turned away, anxious to get out of the crowds.  Now, Crys was 
particularly tall for his fourteen-and-one-half years of age, towering over some 
of the shorter furres at his 5-feet 11-inches.  As he loomed over most he 
passed, females peered into his bright eyes and raised their brows gently, as if 
to say "I like what I see."  Crys payed no mind, though, as he prayed for the 
bell to ring.
	Suddenly, without warning, the shrill scream of the bell echoed throughout 
the halls, and the masses moved like a great ocean of furres, swaying this way 
and that in huge waves to get to class.  Crys checked his schedule quickly to 
see what room he had to go to, and upon reading "507," he headed in the general 
direction of the 500 wing, moving with the herd.
	Crys turned into the doorway of his Art class quickly and looked to the 
overhead to see a seating chart.  This class had tables instead of desks; two 
furres per table.  The feline found his name and took his seat, pulling his 
schedule out again to inspect what other classes he had throughout the day.  
First was Art 1 (obviously), second was Honors Biology, third was Spanish 1, 
fourth was Honors Geometry, fifth was Honors English, and sixth he had PE.  He 
cursed the Physical Education requirement as he read his sixth period class, 
grumbling to himself.  Just as Crys finished reading his schedule and put it 
away, his froze in place.  A very handsome wolf was standing in the front of the 
class, looking at the screen and finding his seat.  He scanned the room quickly 
and his eyes stopped on the seat next to Crys, a look of recognition in the 
wolf's blue eyes.
	As this wolf came towards Crys, he had the chance to study him slightly.  
He had short black hair, lustrous gray fur, and a seemingly toned and muscled 
figure under his loose red shirt and blue jeans.  The wolf's eyes turned to Crys 
as he approached at a casual pace, and his jaw dropped ever so slightly at the 
sight of his table partner.  The two made eye contact, Crys looking slightly 
upward, the wolf staring down as he turned the corner of the table.  The wolf 
raised an eyebrow gently and smiled a charming smile as he sat next to Crys, 
never removing his eyes from the feline's.
	"Hi, I'm Lupis.  Friends call me Lu," came the wolf's deep, resonant voice 
as he gave a small wave.
	"Crys," was the reply as he smiled back and moved some of his long, raven 
hair out of his face and behind his ear.  The bell rang as the two continued 
smiling and staring at each other, and the teacher arose from her desk in the 
back of the room and stepped forward.
	"Alright, let's get started, shall we?  My name's Ms. Vix, and I'll be 
your fabulous new art teacher!" came her loud, feminine voice as she arrived at 
the front of the class.  The petite red panda earned a smile from most in the 
class as her obviously sunny personality showed through, and Crys turned his 
head slowly to look at her.  She was a short and thin woman, pretty for someone 
of her seemingly fifty years of age, and she had a big smile and warm eyes 
behind her thin spectacles.
	"First things first..." was all Crys could remember, because he 
immediately forgot her and started fantasizing about Lu.  He thought about 
hugging Lu, kissing Lu, holding Lu, and just as his mind traveled further, he 
was startlingly interupted.
	"Crystal Kaelbrid?" Ms. Vix called out as she looked in Crys' direction.  
He blinked as he was brought back to reality, and sighed gently.
	"It's Crys," he said softly, raising his hand and putting it back down 
again.
	"Alrighty!" she responded, crossing off the "tal" on her role sheet.  
"Lupis Kincaid?" she called out.
	"Lu," he said, raising his hand and putting it down just as Crys had.
	"Well okay!" she replied cheerily, laughing to herself as she crossed out 
"pis."
	Art went by quicker than Crys expected, and just as he was getting to the 
good part of one of his fantasies, the bell rang shrilly.
	"See ya later, people!" Ms. Vix smiled as everyone got up.  Crys turned to 
his right and noticed Lu was looking at him.  Lu turned away, of course, but 
Crys had been wondering if the wolf had been staring at him the entire period.
	"Well, nice meeting ya, Lu," Crys smiled as he quickly grabbed his 
backpack.
	"Bye, Crys," Lu responded and smiled back.  As the wolf bent over to grab 
his backpack, he watched Crys' full buttocks and thighs with obvious interest as 
he walked out.  Just before Crys turned the corner, Lu caught a glance of a 
pride flag attatched to the feline's backpack, and grinned broadly to himself.
	The rest of Crys' day passed by quickly.  All of his classes were mainly 
receiving syllabai and rule sheets, so he just sat around, daydreaming about Lu.  
But, as sixth period started, his happy, smiling mood became one of annoyance.
	'Why do they even have PE as a requirement anyways?  It should be an 
elective for jocks or something...' he thought to himself as he made his way to 
the gym.  Inside, the freshman PE classes were on the bleachers, clearly marked 
with big signs according to teacher, and Crys climbed to the top right of the 
section his teacher had and sat down, looking at all the other kids and sighing.  
As he looked on, he saw a congregation of boys near the bottom, snickering to 
each other and making dumb jokes.  "Pathetic...immature..." Crys mumbled as he 
watched them.
	"Aren't they?" came a feminine voice as he felt someone sit next to him.  
A pretty female fox had just sat next to him, with bright blue hair and eyes.  
She was wearing a black, corsette-style shirt and a black, knee-length skirt, 
with big blue boots.
	"Hi," Crys said a little annoyedly as he looked at her.
	"Sorry, you just looked lonely," she said softly, half smiling.
	"Oh!  Sorry, I didn't mean to sound so bitchy...it's just I hate PE..."
	"I know!  They should make it an elective for jocks!" she said 
understandingly.  With that one statement, Crys knew he had just made his best 
friend.
	"I'm Crys," he said with a little wave, smiling more and thankful there 
was someone who shared his views in this class.
	"Right on.  I'm Kara," she replied, smiling back.  This fox seemed to be 
the only girl he had passed that didn't oogle at him like he was some kind of 
sex trophy.
	Before Crys could say anything else, the bell rang and their teacher 
automatically began talking.  He seemed like a nice guy, with his deep voice and 
hearty smile, and Crys already liked him.  He was husky, without being fat, and 
had a laugh that could make anyone smile.  Again, Crys was relieved to know that 
not everyone was a moron at his new school.
	By the end of sixth period, Crys and Kara had had a great conversation, 
and after they talked about each other a little (realizing that both of them 
liked many of the same bands, artists, and poets), they turned to the class, and 
Kara told Crys about most of the furres in it.  They had all gone to her school 
last year, she had explained, and she put in that most of them were mindless, 
bleach-haired idiots bent on a quest for non-existant popularity.  Crys had 
agreed, noticing that many of the kids indeed had bleached hair.
	Kara and Crys were in such deep conversation that it took them ages to get 
to the bus circle, and by then, Crys had missed his bus.
	"Fuck!" he shouted as he saw the bus circle deserted.
	"Damn!  Now how're we gonna get home?" Kara asked.
	"Hey, Crys!" came a familiar, resonant voice.  Crys turned to see Lu 
walking up, and nearly had a heart attack.
	"Hey Lu," Crys sighed finally, barely able to tear his eyes away from the 
wolf.  "Lu, Kara.  Kara, Lu."
	"Pleasure," Lu smiled at Kara.  Kara blushed and smiled back before Lu 
turned to Crys again.  "Need a ride?" he asked smoothly.
	"Lu, you're a God send!" Crys laughed.  "I missed the bus!"
	"Well, I'll take that as a yes!" Lu laughed.
	"But," Crys said, suddenly becoming very business-like, "I refuse to 
accept your offer unless you take Kara home, too."
	"Fine by me," Lu grinned.
	The three of them walked to the student parking lot together, chatting 
about this and that.  They all climbed into Lu's blue Honda Civic (first Lu, 
then Kara, and finally Crys), and Lu couldn't help but stare at Crys' rear end 
again as he bent into the car quickly.  Kara noticed this, but only smiled to 
herself.
	"Okay, where do you both live?" Lu asked, turning back to Kara, then to 
Crys in the passenger's seat.
	"I live on Rotondo," Kara said, smiling happily.
	"I'm on Crest Villa," Crys said, staring into Lu's eyes.
	"Seriously?" Lu asked quizically.
	"Yeah, why?"
	"I live on Crest Villa!  And Rotondo's right off it!" he laughed.
	"No shit?  That's awesome, then, and convinient!" Crys grinned.
	"Alright, so we'll get Kara home first, then you," he said to Crys, then 
turned to Kara and smiled again, starting the ignition.
	The ride was fairly uneventful, just excessive chatter between Crys and Lu 
as they got to know each other.  Lu was surprised as Crys told him he was only a 
freshman, and Crys wasn't surprised to know that Lu was a swimmer and a junior.  
It was obvious to Kara that they were into each other, and she smiled to herself 
as she saw the sparks fly.
	"It's the green one right up there," she said and pointed as they turned 
onto Rotondo Drive.
	"Here ya go," Lu said as he braked and turned to smile at Kara once again.
	"Thanks a lot, Lu!" Kara said, grabbing her backpack and removing her seat 
belt.
	"No prob.  See ya later!" he replied.
	"Bye Lu!  See ya tomorrow, Crys!" she said as she slid out of the car and 
shut the door, walking up to her front door.
	"Alright, off to our street, then!" Lu said, and drove to the end of the 
short street of Rotondo.  "What's your number?"
	"Nine-eight-one-seven," Crys said as they stopped at the stop sign and 
turned right.
	"Perfect!  I'm at nine-eight-two-three!  We're right down the street from 
each other!"
	"How awesome!" Crys laughed.  His house came more quickly than he had 
anticipated, and the jaguar was sad to leave the company of his new wolf friend.
	"Well, see you tomorrow, Lu," Crys said softly as he latched his paw to 
his backpack strap.
	He was just about to turn and open the door when he saw Lu move close to 
him, and he nearly had a heart attack as he felt Lu's lips brush his cheek 
gently.  He inhaled quickly in shock, and turned to see Lu with a slightly 
anxious look on his face.
	"I'm sorry," he said gently, turning forward and looking down at the 
steering wheel.  "You just...seemed like you liked me...and I saw the pride flag 
on your bag, and-" he started, but abruptly stopped as he felt Crys' paw slide 
atop his own.  He was just as shocked as Crys had been when he felt the feline's 
warm tongue across his muzzle.
	"Don't be sorry," Chris said softly, giving Lu's paw a quick squeeze 
before opening the door and getting out.  "Bye!" he said a little more cheerily, 
leaning in the open door.
	"Bye Crys," Lu responded quietly.  He couldn't help but turn his head to 
look at Crys' back side once again as he walked up his driveway and into the 
house, though it was sort of masked by the feline's baggy pants.  "Hmmm?" Lu 
said to himself as he rubbed something between his fingers.  It seemed to be a 
piece of paper.  "Call me tonight.  Love Always, Crys," he read, smiling 
broadly.  There was a phone number right underneath the message, and as Lu 
looked at this little paper, decorated in hearts, with the short but sweet 
message, he nearly leapt for joy.
	Crys watched from the window and saw Lu smiling and grasping the paper he 
had put in his paw.  He sat and observed the wolf until he drove away, smiling 
to himself the whole time.
	"Crap, better get those syllabai for when Mom gets home," Crys told 
himself, going into his backpack and grabbing the papers.  He set them all on 
the kitchen table in a neat stack, then went to his room.  By this time he was 
already thinking about what he should do, since he was completely bored, and 
decided he'd call Kara.  He pulled the number out of his pocket and dialed.
	"Hello?" he heard a familiar female voice answer after a few rings.
	"Hey Kara, it's Crys," Crys said merrily, still happy about Lu.
	"Oh hey Crys!  What's up?" Kara said just as merrily.
	"Not too much.  Actually, I'm kinda bored," Crys replied.
	"What, run out of fantasies about Lu?" she asked a little more quietly and 
giggled to herself.
	"What?" he asked.  No one had ever really ACCUSED him of liking a guy 
before...they usually just had their "suspicions."
	"You two were totally into each other!  Okay, for a straight chick, my 
gay-dar and flirt-dar are pretty damn good, and both of them were going off the 
charts with you and Lu!" she laughed.  "I swear, it's the cutest thing I've ever 
seen!"
	"Okay, so you win this round..." Crys laughed.
	"Oh, and by the way, it doesn't exactly take a genius to recognize a pride 
flag when they see one, although I like to think of myself as a genius," she 
laughed back.
	"Well, I tried to put it on there so people would see it, but not see it, 
you know?  Anyways, enough of that.  Isn't Lu the most gorgeous piece of drool 
material you've ever seen?" he giggled.
	"I don't know...I'm in debate between you and him," she responded, also 
giggling.
	Their conversation lasted for a little more than an hour, mostly Crys 
talking about Lu and how much he liked him, and Kara smiling as she noticed how 
often the wolf came into the conversation.  Really, he never left.
	"Well, I better go do my homework," Kara said, letting her laughter 
subside.
	"Oh shit!  I forgot I have math homework!" Crys remembered.  "I better go 
too, then, or my ass is grass when my mom gets home!"
	"Alrighty, see ya later Crys, and hopefully Lu calls today!"
	"Hopefully.  Bye Kara."
	"Bye," she said, and hung up.  Crys clicked off his cordless phone and 
ripped out his math homework.
	Problem after problem, Crys just breezed through, showing all his work, 
and not missing a single one.  Just as he finished and stretched his arms, the 
phone rang, and he nearly fell out of his chair.
	"Oh my God!" he gasped, and grabbed the phone off the desk.  "Hello?"
	"Hi there, sexy," came a beautifully resonant voice.  Crys blushed madly 
at the sound of these words.
	"Hi Lu!" he said enthusiastically, smiling to the point of hurting his 
face muscles.
	"Hello Crys.  Got your little message," he said smoothly, nearly purring 
into the phone like a feline.
	"Obviously so," Crys responded.  "So, what's up?"
	"I can't stop thinking about you," came the lupine reply.
	"I'd be a liar if I said you went out of my mind for more than five 
minutes," Crys said softly.
	"Really?" came the reply.  It was almost squeakily high.
	Crys laughed hysterically, smiling at the wolf's sudden nervousness.  
"Yes, really."
	"Well...did..did you want to come over?" Lu asked quickly.
	"Sure, I'll be right there," the jaguar said seductively, actually licking 
his upper lip a little.
	"Great!" Lu said enthusiastically.
	"Bye Lupie," Crys purred.  "See you in a few."
	"Bye," Lu said softly and hung up.  "Wait a minute.  Lupie?" he questioned 
himself, laughing.
	Crys hung up and quickly scrawled his mom a note that he was at his 
friend's house down the street and he'd be home by six.  He then ran to the 
kitchen, put the note on the table, and decided he had better write Lu's address 
and "P.S. My homework's done!" before leaving it.  That finished, Crys grabbed 
his house key, ran out the front door, locked it, and began walking to Lu's 
house in great anticipation.
	As Crys walked, he looked at all the different houses.  He had just moved 
here about 3 weeks ago from across town, so he was a little unfamiliar with his 
surroundings.  As he watched the numbers pass, and Lu's get inevitably closer, 
he became a little excited.  Finally, he spotted Lu's house, and stopped in his 
tracks.  He had driven down his street several times in his few weeks here, and 
he had always marveled at this particular house, and wondered who lived inside.  
Lu's house was the biggest one on the street, standing majestically as Crys 
began approaching it again.  It even had a rod-iron fence around the property, 
and a gate.  Crys thought of how rich Lu must be, and shook the thought out of 
his head as he opened the gate and walked to the door.  The house loomed over 
him as he stood at the door, and he hesitated to ring the bell.  Finally, he 
pushed the little button, and as he heard the whole house ring with the familiar 
"ding-dong" tone, he waited anxiously for Lu.
	About ten seconds later, Crys heard the shuffling of feet as someone 
approached the door, and smiled as Lu opened it.
	"Hi!" Lu said enthusiastically, motioning for Crys to step inside.  "Come 
on in!"
	"Don't mind if I do," Crys said softly, stepping past Lu and into the 
foyer.  He lifted his tail and caressed Lu's chest and neck with it slowly as he 
took another step, taking his time and lowering it slowly, since the tail slit 
was too big in these pants and exposed his ass when his tail was lifted.  Lu 
shuddered with lust as he felt the tail leave him, and he nearly drooled as he 
looked to its base and saw Cry's ass just barely exposed.
	"So..." he started, swallowing, "what do you want to do?"
	"Ida know..." Crys said as he looked around.  The house really was 
beautiful, and everything looked to be expensive.  "How about you give me le 
grande tour?"
	"Sure!" Lu said, gaining a little more confidence as Crys turned and 
smiled at him.  "Well, this is the foyer, obviously, and over there is the 
living room..."
	The tour was a long one, going through six rooms and a bathroom 
downstairs, as well as four bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs.  Finally, the 
two came to a door at the end of the hall on the second floor.
	"And this," Lu said a little softer than usual as he put his hand on the 
knob of the door, "is my room."  He turned the knob slowly and pushed the door 
open, revealing a huge room painted blue.  This fifth bedroom, Lu's bedroom, 
astounded Crys, and he padded inside as if for fear of hurting anything by 
touching it.
	"Wow," Crys said as he looked around, seeing posters of some of his 
favorite bands across the beautiful blue walls.  The huge bed in the corner 
caught his interest.  It was a four poster, made completely of black rod-iron, 
and had a sheer light green canopy with a matching bed spread.  It looked 
insanely comfortable, with all of its throw pillows and softness, and Crys 
suddenly wondered what it'd be like to lay on it with Lu.  He squelched the 
thought quickly.
	"You like it, I'm guessing?" Lu smiled and stepped behind Crys.
	"Yeah...it's awesome..." Crys said vaguely, his eyes passing over what 
appeared to be a dresser and desk made of cherry.  He merely stood there as Lu 
walked past him and sat in the chair of the desk.
	"Well, that's the end of the tour.  What did ya want to do now?" Lu asked, 
smiling sweetly.
	"Do you have a pool?" Crys asked after a moment, remembering his swim 
trunks.  This morning he had woken up very late, and accidentally put swim 
trunks on instead of boxers.
	"Yeah!  Did you want to go for a swim?" Lu said.
	"If you want to, sure," came Crys' reply.
	"Well, great!" Lu smiled, getting up and going to the dresser.  He pulled 
out a pair of trunks and turned around just as he heard Crys unzip his pants.  
As he looked over, the feline's pants fell to the floor, revealing his dark navy 
swim suit.  Lu was facing Crys' back, and he found he couldn't move his eyes as 
Crys pulled the bottom of his shirt up over his head, revealing his entire upper 
body.  Lu almost drooled at the sight of Crys' curvacious figure, with his 
slender waist and big, rounded hips, and he felt his pants bulge a little as 
Crys shook his long black hair from side to side and dropped the shirt on the 
floor.
	"I'm ready," Crys said softly, turning to Lu.  He kicked his clothes off 
to the side gently and walked a little closer to Lu.  The wolf smiled a little 
and walked to the open door at the other end of the room, which Crys hadn't 
noticed before, and into a large bathroom.  He shut the door and changed quickly 
and came out within a couple of minutes wearing his trunks and smiling.
	"I'll grab the towels," Lu said gently, and walked out into the hall, Crys 
on his heels.  They got towels and went downstairs to the dining room, where 
there were two huge french doors draped in thick curtains.  Lu pushed them out 
of the way, and as Crys peered through the glass, he was astonished by the sight 
of a huge pool and jacuzzi, with a beautiful garden to the left.  Lu unlocked 
and opened the door, and they went outside into the burning warmth of the sun, 
and Crys smiled as he set down his towel on a patio chair.  It was obvious Lu 
wanted to swim.
	Lu suddenly threw his towel at one of the patio tables and ran to the 
pool, diving in.  Crys laughed at how quickly he had gone, and walked over 
slowly, watching as Lu surfaced, his fur and hair matted to his body with water.
	"Come on in!" he laughed as he tread water.  Crys spotted a diving board 
around the other side of the pool, and walked towards it without a word.  "Oh, 
so you're going to dive, then?" Lu asked, smiling.
	"Got a problem?" Crys laughed as he made his way to the board.
	"Be my guest!" Lu chuckled.
	Crys stepped up onto the board and walked about half-way out onto it, 
breathing in deeply.  Suddenly, to Lu's amazement, Crys ran to the edge of the 
board and bounced high, performing a double twist in the air and landing a 
perfect dive.  As the jaguar surfaced a few yards away from Lu, he smiled at the 
astouded look on the canine's face.
	"Whoa..." was all Lu could say.
	"I've been diving since I was four," Crys replied, smiling.
	"Oh, since last year then?" Lu laughed, swimming closer.
	"Look, just because I'm not old like you..." Crys chuckled.
	"Old?" Lu asked, raising an eyebrow and splashing Crys in the face.
	"Hey!" Crys splashed back, laughing.  This started a splashing war, and 
what the two didn't notice is that as they splashed each other, they slowly got 
closer to each other, as well as closer to the shallow end, until they were only 
a few feet apart, able to stand, with the water up to their shoulders.  As Crys 
tried to give Lu a final splash, he felt Lu's large paws grasp his narrow 
wrists.  He stopped and blushed, tilting his head to the right slightly.  Lu 
slowly closed the gap between them, and Crys turned his head forward again, just 
in time to receive a warm kiss from Lu.  Crys nearly melted as he felt Lu's arms 
wrap around his waist, and he reciprocated, moving his own arms around Lu's 
neck.  The two kissed for what seemed like eternity, though it was only about 
five minutes, until Lu pulled away.
	"Crys, I need to ask you something," he said, staring into the feline's 
eyes lovingly.
	"Yes?" Crys replied softly, returning the wolf's gaze.
	"I know it's kind of sudden, since we just met today, but I feel like I've 
known you all my life...so...Crys?  Will you go out with me?"  Lu said it with 
such tenderness, such heart-felt sincerity, that Crys nearly cried.  He hugged 
tight to the wolf, resting his head on the lupine shoulder, and sighed.
	"Yes," was his answer.  "Yes, I'll go out with you!"  He clung to him, and 
smiled very broadly.  He had never been happier.
	Lu hugged his new boyfriend tight, also smiling ear-to-ear.  Their embrace 
lasted even longer than their kiss had, but finally, Crys pulled back.
	"Lu?" he questioned, smiling still.
	"Yes, love?" came the reply.
	"Kara's gonna flip," he laughed, and swam out of his love's embrace.  He 
dunked himself and walked to the steps, slowly getting out of the pool.  Lu 
watched as his boyfriend took each step, marveling at the long, raven hair and 
the beautiful fur.  It seemed to go in slow motion as the wolf watched, and as 
Crys stepped out fully, he felt his trunks begin to swell with lust.  Now that 
Crys' trunks were wet, they clung to him tightly, showing off his perfectly full 
and rounded thighs and buttocks, and Lu merely stared as the feminine figure of 
his boyfriend as the feline lay on the pool deck and motioned with a finger for 
the wolf to come to him.  Lu swam to the edge of the pool at top speed and 
hauled himself out, standing over Crys as he lay there, his long black hair 
spread out like a pillow beneath his head.  As Lu looked at him affectionately, 
he felt the bulge grow ever bigger, his swelling sheath filling with desire.  
Crys stroked a pawfoot along his boyfriend's leg seductively and smiled, again 
motioning for Lu to come to him.  Lu eased atop Crys and kissed him, letting his 
full weight rest against the feline.  Crys kissed back and wrapped his arms 
around the wolf's neck again, opening Lu's lips with his own and sliding his 
velvet tongue into Lu's muzzle.  Lu moaned and deepened the kiss, pressing his 
own tongue to Crys' and rolling over, pulling Crys atop him.
	Crys ground his hips into Lu's gently, pressing their crotches together, 
and making Lu realize that Crys was just as aroused as he was.  The two kissed 
and clung to each other for hours on the pool deck, bodies pressed together, 
until they heard a car drive up the driveway.
	"That'll be my dad," Lu said a little sadly as he pulled away from his 
love.
	"Might I ask...do your parents know you're gay?" Crys questioned, 
furrowing his brow a bit.
	"Yes, they do.  And I'm sure after you leave, I'll get the 'Was that your 
boooooooooooyfriend?' treatment from my mother and sister."
	Crys chuckled to himself, then said, "And you'll tell them...?"
	"Yes, and that he's the most wonderful guy I've ever met," Lu answered, 
smiling up at Crys.
	"I could fall in love with you," Crys said sweetly, kissing the wolf 
beneath him gently and hauling himself up.  Just as Lu got up, his father, a 
tall, burly wolf that looked to be around forty in Crys' opinion, walked up to 
the French doors and opened one.  He walked out, and as he came closer, Crys 
could see that he was still handsome for his age, and very much in his prime.
	"Hey son!  Who's your friend?" came his booming deep voice.
	"Hey dad.  This is Crys.  Crys, this is my dad," Lu said, gesturing 
between the two.
	"Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Kincaid!" Crys smiled and held out his paw.
	"Nice to meet you, too, Crys!  And please, call me Tom!" the big wolf 
smiled back, grasping the small paw in his massive one.  "So, you guys have a 
good swim?" Tom asked, glancing between them.
	"Yeah, it was great!" Crys answered for them.  "I love your pool, as well 
as your entire house!  It's beautiful!"
	"Well thank you!  I designed it myself!" Tom grinned.  "Why don't you two 
get dried off and come inside?"
	"Okay," they replied simultaneously, walking to the patio to get their 
towels.  Just as Tom was walking inside, Crys called out "Hey Tom!"
	"Yeah?" Tom asked, smiling as he came back.
	"What time is it, please?" Crys asked, smiling sweetly.
	"It's about..." Tom said, tilting his head to look at his wristwatch, 
"five fifty-six."
	"Oh shit!" Crys blurted, before covering his mouth with a paw.  "Sorry 
Tom, I-"
	"Don't worry about it.  What's the problem, though?  Need to get home?"
	"Yeah," Crys replied, smiling once again.  "I just need to get my clothes.  
I live right down the street."
	"Okay, well be my guest!" Tom smiled, moving out of the way of the door.
	"Thanks," Crys smiled, walking past.  Tom felt something rub against his 
leg, and watched as Crys' tail brushed past as Crys walked inside.
	Both Tom and Lu watched the feline climb the stairs, and just as he was 
out of sight, Tom said softly, "Lu, you pick guys better than I do!"
	Lu laughed and patted his father on the shoulder.  "Don't put yourself 
down, dad.  I just got lucky with this one."
	"Already?" Tom asked anxiously.  Lu laughed hysterically, and let out a 
"Not like that!" before the two wolves saw Crys come back down the stairs.  He 
walked over smiling.
	"Bye Tom!  Hope to see more of you!" he grinned, looking up at the bigger 
wolf.  "Bye honey, see you tomorrow," Crys smiled and kissed Lu on the lips 
before turning and walking to the door, swaying his hips with every step.  He 
turned back and gave a little wave, then exited the house, leaving the father 
and son just standing near the French doors.
	"'Honey?'  So you two ARE a couple!  Just as I suspected!" Tom teased, 
poking his son in the shoulder.  "Let me know when the wedding is, 'honey!'" he 
laughed.
	"Back off, Dad!  We just started going out today!"
	"Coulda fooled me," Tom laughed.  "Well, I'm glad you've finally got 
another boyfriend.  You were so mopey..."
	"Is this Make-Fun-of-Lu Day or what?" Lu asked, laughing.
	"No, that's every day.  This is Make-Fun-of-Lu's-Love-Life Day!"

	And so the two were a couple.  They held hands, no matter who saw, every 
day in art, and helped each other out as much as one or the other could on their 
projects.  By the end of the first week of school, Crys and Kara were taken to 
and from school every day by Lu.  Kara, of course, was ecstatic when she found 
out that Crys and Lu were boyfriend and boyfriend, and she just about messed 
herself when she saw them kiss for the first time.  Crys later found out that 
the handsome Tom was bisexual, and loved flirting with him just to make Lu 
angry.  The weeks passed by, and Crys quickly made friends by himself, as well 
as with all of Lu's and Kara's friends.  All three were very happy.
	The days got colder, and Thanksgiving came and went (which Crys' and Lu's 
families spent together).  Soon, it was December, and Crys was pestering Lu 
about what he wanted for Christmas.
	"C'mon, you must want SOMETHING!" he pressed, poking his love in the 
chest.
	"You," Lu smiled, kissing Crys on the nose.  They were at Lu's house, as 
usual, and Tom was occasionally spying on them from the kitchen.
	"You've already got me!" Crys smiled.  Lu was sitting in a big recliner, 
and his feline lover was straddling his waist.
	"True.  Therefore, you don't need to get me anything!" he smiled, kissing 
Crys again.
	"Oh c'mon!  Make my life easier!" Crys whined, adjusting his rear, which 
was firmly planted on Lu's thighs.
	"Fine, if you really want to get me something, get me a heap load of 
mistletoe.  We can hang it, say, above my bed?" he chuckled, repetatively 
kissing the jaguar.
	"I'll be sure to remember that," Crys laughed back, kissing the canine 
passionately.  Soon the two were locked, their tongues dancing in one another's 
mouths, wrapping their arms around each other.  Just as Crys was about to press 
his body up to Lu's, Tom walked in, clearing his throat loudly and obviously.
	"Dinner's ready, you two!" he chuckled.
	The couple blushed and went into the kitchen, just as Tom came out with 
five fully-loaded plates on his arms.  He set them down accordingly and took his 
seat at the head of the table, ready to dig in.  "Lu, will you tell your sister 
and mother it's time to eat, please?" he asked.
	Lu walked over to the bottom of the staircase and yelled, hand to his 
muzzle, at the top of his lungs, "Mooooooooooooooom!  Chrissyyyyy!  Foooood!"  
He came back to the table and sat next to Crys, smiling at him.  A minute or so 
later, Lu's mom, Sharron, and his sister Chrissy, came down the stairs.  Sharron 
had been working on some take-home work, and Chrissy had been doing her 
homework.
	Sharron had the gray fur of her son, as well as the black hair.  She was 
petite compared to her massive husband, but a very pretty wolf.  Chrissy had her 
father's sandy fur and brown hair, but had gray eyes all her own; a mix of her 
mother's green and her father's blue.
	"So how are the love birds today?" Chrissy asked sarcastically, smiling 
broadly.
	Crys stuck his tongue out at her and they all had a good laugh before 
eating their dinner.
	"This is excellent, Tom!" Crys smiled as he swallowed the steak in his 
mouth.  Tom had prepared T-bones with mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables, 
which was one of Crys' favorite dishes.
	"Thanks," Tom smiled back, only after licking his own muzzle.
	"Yeah, very good, Dad," Chrissy put in, shoveling a forkful of potatoes in 
her mouth.
	"Thanks, honey," Tom turned and smiled at his daughter.  "I guess I'm just 
that good of a chef!"
	"Ha!  That's a laugh!" Sharron chuckled as she swallowed some of her 
vegetables.  "I taught you everything you know!"
	They all laughed again, and dinner was fairly pleasant.  After they 
finished, Crys waved good-bye to the family and gave Lu a good-bye kiss that 
lasted about ten minutes, then left, wallowing in happiness.
	Crys got home just as his mom pulled up, and they exchanged greetings as 
she got out of her car.  She had been on a date with some new guy, so Crys had 
had the night to himself, and his boyfriend and family, of course.  They talked 
about their evenings, joking and laughing together as they usually did, then 
both went to bed, as they had to both get up early for school and work the 
following day.  Friday, the last day of school before the winter break.  Crys 
could hardly wait.
	The young jaguar awoke the next morning feeling refreshed as his alarm 
clock went off at 5:35, and he stretched and smiled.  He was looking forward to 
the last day of school, as it would be the mark of a whole two weeks with just 
Kara, Lu, and he.  He grinned to himself, and planned to pester Kara about what 
she wanted for Christmas, too.
	After getting ready (dressed entirely in red and green, with a Santa hat 
to top it off, and bells on his shoes), Crys heard Lu honk his horn, and he ran 
out, jingling all the way.  Lu immediately laughed as he saw his boyfriend run 
down the front steps, ring-a-linging with every step, and Crys stuck his tongue 
out as he rounded the car.
	"How is my little elf today?" Lu laughed as Crys got in the car.
	"I'm great, actually, now that I'm with you," Crys said sweetly, leaning 
over and kissing Lu.
	"And I'm glad I'm with you," Lu replied, smiling.
	"Good, now stop making fun of my outfit!" Crys said, sticking out his 
tongue.
	They both laughed as they went to pick up Kara, then all three of them 
laughed, as Kara had her hair temporarily red and green.  They drove to school 
laughing and chatting about this and that, then walked to class together as they 
got there just before the bell rang.  By then, Crys had noticed that Kara was 
also in his art class, and she had asked Ms. Vix if she could be moved right in 
front of them.  They went to art and had a good time, and the rest of the day 
passed rather quickly, with fun Christmas movies and projects instead of work 
(except in Math).  But, as Crys walked to PE, he was suddenly afraid of what the 
kids would say about his outfit.  He had classes with many of them, but only the 
really moronic ones were in this class (besides Kara).  Their teacher had told 
them that they weren't dressing out, so he was at least thankful for that.  He 
found Kara and some friends and chatted, but as he did, his body suddenly 
lurched forward and he slammed into the girl across from him as he was pushed.  
He turned and saw the bleach-haired group laugh and shout "Fag!" before stalking 
away.  Kara and Brittany (the girl across from him) helped him up, and he cursed 
and muttered under his breath.  Otherwise, the period passed quickly, and he was 
relieved to be able to go.  Then he forgot he had left his PE shoes in his 
locker.
	"You coming, Crys?" Kara asked as he turned around suddenly.
	"I'll catch up with you.  I've got to grab my PE shoes," he said, and 
walked briskly towards the boy's locker room.  Kara shrugged and kept walking.
	Crys walked to his locker quickly, and was almost finished with the 
combination when he felt a tap on his shoulder.  He turned, and was surrounded 
by Kevin, Brad, and Scott; the bleach-haired trio.
	"Look, it's the little fag," Kevin said, the obvious leader of the bunch.  
They weren't nearly as tall as Crys, but he was afraid of them for their 
muscles, not their height.
	"Leave me alone," he said quietly.
	They pushed him against the lockers and he flinched as his head hit the 
metal.
	"What does the number twenty-five mean to you, faggot?" Kevin asked, 
sneering at Crys.
	"I don't know, your IQ?" Crys mumbled, glaring at the three of them.
	"You'll regret that," Kevin sneered again, punching Crys in the stomach.  
He winced visibly, bowing his head a little.  "Since twenty-five is the number 
of the day of Christmas, the boys and I have decided to give you a little 
Christmas present; twenty-five hits each!" he laughed, socking Crys in the side 
of the face.  Crys refused to whimper or cry out for these bastards.
	"Why don't you cry like the little bitch you are?" Brad asked, holding 
Crys' right arm.  The three laughed as Kevin punched Crys in the shoulder.  
Soon, Kevin was punching every few seconds, hitting Crys in the stomach, 
shoulders, face, and chest.
	Meanwhile, Lu and Kara had been waiting for nearly ten minutes.
	"How long does it take to get your shoes?" Lu asked himself, tapping his 
foot.  "Hey Kara, I'm gonna go find Crys.  Will you stay here and watch my car?" 
he asked her.
	"I'm sure your car would die if it didn't have a guard at all times," she 
laughed.  "Go get your boyfriend so we can get the hell out of here!"
	Lu walked briskly towards the locker room, and for some strange reason, as 
he got ever closer, he felt as if something were terribly wrong.  Finally, he 
walked into the locker room, and was first confused, then terrified at what he 
heard.  At first, all he heard was laughing and a muffled sound, like someone 
was hitting someone else.  But then he heard the light twinkle of bells every 
time the hitting sound came.  Suddenly enraged, Lu searched the aisles quickly, 
and found what he was looking for.  There was Crys, pushed against the lockers, 
getting the crap beat out of him by three guys.  Lu growled loudly, snarling at 
the three, and they all turned in time to see Lu's fist come in contact with the 
left one's face.  He kicked the middle one in the balls as hard as he could, 
then hit the one on the right in the chest, knocking the wind out of him.  The 
wolf was already strong normally, but in this rage, he was painfully powerful.  
He growled at the three, and two got up and ran away.  Lu let them go.  The 
middle one had been the one hitting his love.
	"What the fuck is your problem?" Lu growled loudly, grabbing the remaining 
abuser by the neck and slamming him against the lockers.
	"I-I-I'm..s-s-sorry!!" he choked out as his throat was grasped, and he 
moaned at the pain in his loins.  "I s-swear, it'll never h-h-happen again!"
	"It better not.  Or you'll had wish you had never been born," he growled 
ferociously, dropping the kid.  He ran off whimpering, tail between his legs, 
and Lu watched him go in contempt.  Then he heard Crys sob.
	"Crys!  Ohhh...honey!!" he whined as he saw the condition his love was in.  
Crys' nose was bleeding, and he had welts on his face, and most likely 
elsewhere.  Lu swooped down and picked the sobbing Crys up, letting him cry on 
his shoulder.  "I'm so sorry, Crys...I should have come sooner...I'm so so 
sorry..." Lu whimpered, then broke down, crying into Crys' shoulder.
	"It wasn't your fault," Crys said softly.  He had stopped sobbing.  The 
pain wasn't too great.
	"I know...but if I would have been there, I could have protected you..." 
Lu cried.
	"You did protect me, Lu.  You saved me from being beaten worse.  Thank 
you," he smiled and wrapped his arms around Lu's neck.
	"Let's get you cleaned up," Lu sniffed as his crying subsided.  He smiled 
a little at the sight of Crys smiling, and was glad he had come before Crys 
retained any serious injuries.
	After cleaning Crys off at the sink in the bathroom, Lu grabbed the 
feline's backpack and slung it over his own, carrying his love the whole time.  
He carried Crys all the way to the parking lot, though Crys insisted he could 
walk perfectly fine.
	"Oh my God!  What happened?" Kara exclaimed as she ran up to meet them in 
the middle of the parking lot.
	"Those spikey-haired assholes started beating me up...but Lu saved me..." 
Crys sighed, tenderly touching his cheek and wincing.
	"Ohhh!  Damn you Crys!  You just had to get those shoes!"
	"I'm fine, Kara, I'm fine...I'll be okay..." Crys said softly.
	"Let's get you in the car," Lu said gently, and walked over to his car.  
Kara opened the passenger seat door and Lu set Crys in gently, making sure not 
to hurt him in the process.  Kara and Lu got in, and they set off for home, Kara 
ranting the whole time about how she was going to "beat those morons' asses into 
the ground."
	They dropped Kara off first, as usual, then drove directly to Lu's house.  
Crys didn't question it.
	Lu carried Crys (who didn't protest this time) all the way into the house 
and up the stairs, laying him on his own bed.
	"What happened to Crys?" Chrissy asked gently as she appeared at the 
doorway.
	"He got beaten up, Chrissy.  Please leave us alone."
	"Okay," she said softly, closing the door behind her as she left.
	The two lovers just sat there for a few minutes, looking into each others' 
eyes as Lu stroked Crys' hair gently.  Then suddenly, Lu got up.
	"I'm going to go get some ice," he said, and turned to leave.
	"No!" Crys cried and sat up.  "Please, just...lay here with me," he 
pleaded as his love turned around.
	Lu nearly cried again as he saw the desperation in his boyfriend's eyes 
and heard it in his voice, and he quickly complied, sliding under the covers of 
his bed with Crys and wrapping his arms around the jaguar.
	"Crys?" Lu asked gently.  The jaguar could feel his love's voice rumble in 
his lupine chest.
	"Yes, honey?" Crys said softly and sweetly as he leaned up to make eye 
contact with his lover.
	"I can only think of one good thing that came out of today," Lu sighed.  
It was obvious he meant Crys' getting beaten up.
	"What's that?" Crys questioned.  He really was interested to know how Lu 
could come up with something positive out of all this.
	"Seeing you hurt, seeing you being hurt, made me realize how lost I would 
be without you.  You're my whole world, and if I ever lost you-"
	"Lu, I'm not going anywhere, it was just a fight," Crys sighed, smiling at 
his love.
	"None the less, if I ever lost you...I don't think I could go on living.  
Seeing you being hurt showed me how much I really need you, really care for 
you...I love you, Crys."
	Crys was shocked for a moment.  He hadn't expected Lu to say that.  He 
just stared into the eyes of the wolf wrapped around him for a minute, and felt 
tears come to his eyes as he looked into the wolf's eyes.
	"I love you so much, Lu!" Crys cried happily, clinging to his lover and 
kissing all over his neck.  "I could have told you a hundred times over by now, 
but I didn't, and I'm sorry!  I love you, I love you, I love you!" Crys cried, 
kissing all over the canine's muzzle.
	Lu grabbed Crys' muzzle gently and pulled him into a deep kiss, sliding 
his tongue into his boyfriend's mouth.  Crys complied, pressing his velvet 
tongue against Lu's, and wrapped his arms tightly around him, clinging to him as 
if for dear life.
	Suddenly, Crys felt his clothes were a barrier, a layer of heat and 
itchyness that were keeping him from really experiencing the arms of his lover.  
He pulled away and threw off his jacket, continuously kissing Lu.  The wolf 
watched as his lover scrambled out of bed, running to the door and locking it.  
He pulled off his shirt over his head and climbed back into bed, kissing Lu 
again.
	"Are you sure this is what you want?" Lu asked gently as he watched the 
jaguar begin to unbutton his own pants.
	"All I want is to be able to lay in my boyfriend's arms without any 
barriers.  I want to be able to feel your fur against mine," Crys purred, 
shoving his pants off his hips.  By now, Lu's cock was already poking out of his 
sheath, and he could see the bulge in his lover's boxers.
	Crys helped pull Lu's sweater and shirt off over his head, and he smiled 
as he felt Lu's paws slip into his boxers and over his rear.  He felt them 
squeeze softly, then arched his back as Lu pulled the boxers off, exposing the 
feline to his wolf lover.
	The wolf's brows raised and he gasped as he saw the full form of his 
beautiful and seductive lover, but Crys didn't notice as he unbuttoned Lu's 
pants and slid them off, along with his underwear.  The feline smiled at his 
love's naked body, and finally calmed a little from his frantic clothes-removing 
frenzy of before; he sighed and slumped into the wolf's warm embrace.  The 
jaguar slid upward, lifting his head then leaning back down again to kiss his 
love, forming a canopy of long, black hair over them.  The wolf squeezed his 
mate's rump gently, making the feline purr into the kiss.  The lovers' sheaths 
pushed together as the jaguar relaxed and let his full weight rest upon his 
love, making them both moan.  They clung together and kissed for hours, naked 
and sublimely happy.
	Just as Crys pulled away from his love, his ear twitched.  He had heard a 
noise from behind him.
	"Did you hear that?" Crys asked at almost a whisper.
	"Hear what, your delicious purring?" Lu grinned and licked the feline's 
neck.  Crys figured it had been his imagination, and so kissed his lover again.  
Then, suddenly, both of their ears twitched in unison.  There was a noise coming 
from the door.
	The two lovers turned just in time to see the knob of the door turn and 
Tom step in the room, with a smile on his face.  His smile soon vanish as his 
face contorted to shock, the sight of his own son and his boyfriend tangled 
together, naked under the sheets.
	"Oh my God, Tom!" Crys gasped, jumping off Lu and covering himself with 
the sheet up to the shoulders.
	"Dad, I swear, we weren't doing what you think we were!" Lu said, not 
knowing whether to scream for his father to get out or laugh at the expression 
on his face.
	"Boys, get dressed and come downstairs.  We need to talk about this," he 
said gently, then left, shutting the door behind him.
	"Shit..." Lu said simply, falling back onto his pillow.  "Guess we better 
get dressed and go down to face the music."
	Crys rolled on top of his love and kissed him affectionately before 
rolling completely off the bed and collecting their clothes.  He tossed Lu his 
gently and pulled on his boxers.  They felt kind of loose, and fell to his 
ankles as he stood straight.  They were Lu's.
	"Trying to put my boxers on?" Lu laughed as he saw them fall.  They both 
had a little chuckle before they realized the seriousness of the situation 
again, and dressed quickly.  They headed downstairs and walked instinctively 
into the dining room, where Tom was seated and waiting.
	"Sit, please," Tom said very gently, gesturing to the chairs across from 
him.  Lu took the one directly opposite Tom, while Crys took the one beside him.  
"Explain," came the deep, rumbling voice a little more sternly.
	"Dad, I swear, it-" Lu started, but was silenced by a paw held up in the 
air by his father.
	"Crys, explain please.  Then Lu."
	"Well, Tom, we weren't having sex, if that's what you're concerned about.  
I just wanted to lay naked with Lu, so I told him as I pulled off my 
jacket...and one thing lead to another, I guess.  I take complete responsibility 
for what happened," Crys responded slowly, yet surely.  He didn't blush or 
flinch at all.
	"I went up there because Chrissy told me that you, Crys, had been beaten 
up.  So I went to see if you were all right.  I turned the knob on the door, and 
just thought it was stuck, but I know now that it was probably mislocked.  I 
turned harder and it gave, and you two know very well what I saw.  From the 
looks of it, Crys, you have been beaten a bit, although not so badly as not 
being able to make-out naked," Tom laughed, a smile gracing his face.  He was 
very good-natured about the whole thing, and it put Lu and Crys at ease.
	"Do you agree with Crys' story, or do you have anything to say, son?" Tom 
asked, smiling at his son.
	"I agree, except for one aspect of the story.  It isn't all Crys' fault.  
It takes two for something like that to happen, and I let it just as much as he 
did."
	"Shit, you didn't LET it happen!  You dork!" Tom laughed.  "It happened 
because it's obvious you two love each other very much!  And by the way, I have 
nothing against you two going further with it.  I just wanted, and want, to make 
sure that you really do love each other."
	The two lovers were shocked at this kind of response to what Tom had seen, 
and both let out huge sighs of relief.  After a second or two, Lu spoke up.
	"Yes, dad.  We love each other.  We're in love," Lu said sweetly, and 
turned to Crys, kissing him on the lips softly.
	"That was pretty corny, Lu," Crys snickered as his love pulled away, and 
all three laughed.  "But," he put in as the laughter subsided, "very sweet.  And 
very true.  I love you, Lupis Kincaid."
	"I love you too, Crystal Kaelbrid," he confessed in return.  They leaned 
in simultaneously and passionately kissed, just as Tom began to laugh.
	"What now?" Lu asked his father as he pulled away from his lover.
	"Crys' name is CRYSTAL?  I thought it was Christopher!  You know, like C-
H-R-I-S!" he cackled.
	"Hey, Crystal's a beautiful name, Dad," Lu defended, resting a paw on 
Crys' knee.
	"I know, I know...it was just...unexpected...so it made me laugh!  I'm 
sorry Crys," he apologized, smiling at Crys.
	"No prob, Tom," Crys smiled back.  "In fact," he started and got up.  He 
walked around the table and next to Tom.  "For you!" he grinned, and kissed the 
wolf on the cheek.  His expression changed to shock as he blushed deeply at 
being kissed by such a young beauty.  Crys grinned and went back to his seat.  
Tom's expression changed yet again, this time from shock to a huge grin, 
directed towards his son's lover.
	"Hey!" Lu said after a second as his father and lover stared at each 
other, both grinning.
	"What, I can't give your dad a friendly kiss on the cheek?" Crys said 
innocently.  It was so adorable that Lu had to laugh.  "No more than that, okay?  
It makes me nervous..."
	"Don't worry, Lu," Tom said heartily.  "I don't go for guys nearly thirty 
years younger than me.  It was totally innocent, as Crystal here made it out to 
be," he laughed.
	"Hey, don't plan on getting any more kisses if you make fun of me like 
that," Crys said, and stuck his tongue out.  They all had another good laugh, 
and everyone was smiling by the time they ceased giggling.
	"Now go on, you two.  Go have fun.  But no more getting naked!  Your 
mom'll be home soon!" Tom laughed.  The two ran back up to Tom's room and shut 
the door, kissing and hugging.  They flopped on the bed and snuggled together 
until they both fell asleep.  Meanwhile, Tom was downstairs, calling Crys' mom 
and telling her Crys would be spending the night.
	The next few days went by fast, and Crys and Lu spent a lot of time 
together, alone as well as with Kara.  They all had a good time waiting for 
Christmas to roll around, and when Christmas Eve was finally upon them, they had 
even more fun.  Kara's parents had gone to a company Christmas party, so Kara 
had spent Christmas Eve with the Kaelbrids and Kincaids.  They all sang 
Christmas carols together (Crys and Kara singing a beautiful duet of "Noel"), 
admired the huge tree in the parlor of the Kincaid house (the center house of 
just about everything), and laughed together.  Christmas was a beautiful 
holiday, and everyone was sublimely happy.
	That night, they all sang one last carol together, then either walked home 
or went to their rooms.  Crys and Lu went up to Lu's room and snuggled under the 
covers of the bed, warm and cozy in each other's arms as the clock struck 
midnight.  It was Christmas Day.
	The two lovers awoke to a soft tapping on the door, and they heard a "Get 
up, it's time to unwrap presents!"
	"Mmmm...Chrissy, go away!" Lu called out, snuggling against Crys and 
licking his neck.
	"Get up!" she yelled, opening the door.  She couldn't help but smile at 
the sight of her brother and his boyfriend curled up in bed, snuggling together.  
Then her smile turned from sweet to wicked.
	"Merry Christmas!" she yelled and jumped on them.  She was acting like 
they were her parents; but, she'd already done that to her parents.
	"Ack!" Crys sort of half-gasped, half-laughed as he rolled over onto his 
back, letting Chrissy slide between them.  "Nice way to wake us up!"
	"Isn't it just?  I find it rather effective," she replied, smiling.
	"Oh really?" Crys asked, raising an eyebrow.  Suddenly, without warning, 
his paws shot out to her sides, and he tickled her furiously, sending loud 
laughter through the second storey.  She laughed and laughed as he tickled her, 
and Lu merely watched, smiling at the scene.  'He's going to make a good father 
some day,' Lu thought, then suddenly shook the thought from his mind.
	"Go downstairs and...I don't know, sort the presents into stacks by 
person.  We'll be down in a minute," Crys told Chrissy, relenting on his 
tickling.
	"Okay, Crys!" she said happily, jumping off the bed and running out the 
door.
	"How come she listens to you?" Lu asked, laughing.
	"Because, I'm nice, and you're the big bad wolf," Crys chuckled, kissing 
his lover on the nose.
	"You know you like it," Lu growled suddenly rolling and pinning Crys 
beneath him.
	"And?" Crys smiled, leaning up and kissing the canine.  The two had a 
short exchange of tongues before Crys pulled away.  "Better not keep Chrissy 
waiting!" he laughed.  "Besides, we can finish this later," he added 
seductively, licking the wolf's muzzle.
	"Oh, okay," Lu said, hauling himself up and stretching his back with a few 
loud cracks.  Crys rolled out of bed, Lu on his heels, and went all the way 
downstairs, where Chrissy was just finishing sorting presents.
	"Finally!" Tom laughed, who was sitting next to Sharron on the couch.
	"Hey, we're teenagers, we need our sleep!" Lu chuckled, sitting in the 
recliner opposite the couch, very close to the Christmas tree.
	"These are yours, Lu!" Chrissy said enthusiastically, pushing a massive 
pile of wrapped gifts to her brother.  "And here's mine," she said, hoarding her 
own pile to herself, earning a laugh from everyone present.  "These are yours, 
Mom and Dad," the spry little wolf continued, pushing her parents' presents 
across the carpet and to the couch.  "And," she said with a tone of finality, 
"these are yours, Crys!"  Chrissy turned behind herself and pushed out a pile of 
several gifts towards Crys, who was sitting on the arm of the recliner, Lu's arm 
wrapped around his waist.  A look of sudden shock came over Crys' face, then a 
huge smile graced it.
	"You guys didn't have to get me anything!" he said happily, looking around 
the room at all of them.
	"Nonsense!" Tom replied for them all, smiling at Crys.
	"You're family," Sharron said, clarifying her husband's comment.  Crys 
blinked back the tears of happiness that were beginning to well in his eyes and 
smiled even more broadly.
	"Go ahead!" Tom said, smiling at all of them.  Without warning, all three 
of them viciously attacked their piles of gifts, unwrapping clothes, CDs, 
movies, and all sorts of things.  Eventually, the parents began unwrapping their 
gifts as well, and soon they all finished, leaving heaps of wrapping paper and 
boxes in the center of the room.  After they all finished, Crys was nearly about 
to cry again.  No one had ever been this nice to him in his entire life.
	Crys ran to Tom and Sharron, first hugging Tom tight and kissing him on 
the cheek, then latching on to Sharron, hugging her close.  "Thanks Mom," he 
whispered in her ear.  After releasing Sharron (who was smiling broadly) he ran 
over and grabbed Chrissy, swinging her around (she had bought him the CD he 
wanted).  They laughed and hugged as Crys set the little wolf down, then finally 
turned to his love.
	"And thank you, Lu," he said gently, climbing atop of his lover.  They 
kissed passionately, hugging each other close as the family watched.
	"Hey Chrissy, get some popcorn, this is entertainment!" Tom laughed, 
watching as the two lovers pulled away and stuck their tongues out at him.
	They all grabbed up their presents and went to their rooms, changing from 
their pajamas to clothes and stashing their gifts.  They all went downstairs and 
grabbed the left-over unwrapped gifts,  the whole family walking down the street 
to Crys' house for the Christmas Day celebration.  Crys' mom, Lisa, welcomed 
them in and kissed and hugged her son, very happy to have guests for Christmas.  
Of course, Sharron bustled right into the kitchen with Lisa to help her out, and 
everyone had a good time, for the most part, chatting away and laughing 
together.  A few hours later, Kara came over with her parents, and all of them 
spent the holiday together, Crys and Lu hanging all over each other the entire 
time.  At four-thirty, they all had turkey and all the trimmings, prepared by 
Lisa and Sharron, of course, and everyone had a wonderful time.  After filling 
their bellies and singing, chatting, and laughing long into the night, Kara went 
home with a last "Merry Christmas!" with her parents.  A few minutes later, the 
Kincaids got up to leave, and Lisa stood up with them.
	"You guys have the house to yourself, okay?  I'm gonna spend the night at 
the Kincaid residence," she said to her son and his lover, winking.
	"Okay Mom!" Crys said quickly, standing and giving her a kiss on the 
cheek.  They had planned it the whole time.  With a final "Merry Christmas 
boys!" on the part of the Kincaids (minus Lu) and Lisa, they left, and the two 
lovers were alone.
	Lu sat kind of dumbfounded on the couch, blinking every few seconds.
	"What just happened?" he asked, smiling a little as Crys walked over to 
him.
	"It's your Christmas present from me!" Crys replied, smiling and handing 
his love an envelope marked "Lu."
	Lu merely set the envelope down on the couch and stood up, taking his love 
into his arms.  They kissed very passionately, caressing each other's tongues, 
and pressed close together.  Slowly they moved to Crys' room, not breaking their 
kiss, and flopped on his bed together, breathing hard from lack of oxygen.  The 
two helped each other out of their clothes, only breaking their kiss to pull 
their shirts and sweaters over their heads.  They lay in their underwear, Lu on 
top, kissing for several minutes, both heavily aroused, when Lu felt the 
feline's paws slip into his boxers from behind.
	They pulled away from each other, and Crys pushed Lu down on his back, 
licking his lips and smiling seductively.  Crys removed his own underwear 
quickly, exposing his ever-emerging cock, and licked his lips again as he saw 
the tent forming in Lu's boxers.
	Lu smiled at his love and breathed in deeply as he felt the little feline 
paws slide his boxers down, revealing his maleness to the air.  The wolf moaned 
gently as he watched, and felt, his feline lover take his cock in paw and lap at 
it gently, sending shivers down his spine.  Crys took the head into his mouth, 
suckling gently and inching the throbbing member into his muzzle.  Crys nearly 
gagged as the head of his love's dick gently bumped the back of his throat, and 
suddenly realized just how big his wolf was.  The feline took it a little more 
slowly, relaxing his throat and letting the wolf down into it, sucking and 
licking at the meat in his muzzle.  He heard his love moan loudly in ecstacy, 
and he slowly bobbed his head up, then down again, earning another moan.  Slowly 
Crys began a rhythm, lapping at the wolf's cock as he moved his head upward, 
causing a small sucking noise.  Lu was content to let his love pleasure him, 
moaning and sighing as he felt Crys' paws move over his body; one to cup his 
balls, the other to slip under his ass and grab it softly.
	Finally, just as Lu was about to start wildly thrusting into his lover's 
mouth, Crys drew back and released his aching cock.  Lu leaned up and kissed 
him, licking the insides of his mouth lustfully before pushing him down into the 
pillows on the bed.  Without a word, Lu kissed down along his lover's body, 
elicting small moans and a low purr as his tongue flicked over the feline's 
nipples.  He kissed down the feline's smooth, slender belly, licking the navel 
gently and sending a shiver through Crys.  Lu then kissed downward, licking 
Crys' cock, sheath and balls gently, smiling as his love moaned above him.  
Finally, Lu came to his destination, and lifted the jaguar's round rump, rolling 
his tongue along the crevasse and lapping at his love's hole.  Crys let out a 
soft moan and began purring louder than before as his tailhole was caressed by 
his love's tongue, preparing it for something much more pleasurable.  Lu darted 
his tongue inside the feline gently, licking inside him and earning another moan 
before he felt a paw on his muzzle.  Crys pulled his lover away from his rear 
and wrapped his legs around the wolf's waist, pressing his ass against the 
canine's huge member.  The wolf couldn't hold back anymore, and with one swift 
motion, guided the head of his cock, slick with saliva, into his love's ass, 
elicting a massive moan and very loud purring from the jaguar.  Crys was 
extremely tight, and Lu realized that his lover was tense.
	"Relax, my love," he whispered as he leaned down, licking the edge of the 
jaguar's ear tentatively.  Crys turned his head slightly and kissed his love, 
relaxing the muscles of his hole to allow his love entry.  This was all Lu 
needed, and he pulled away from the kiss, slowly entering his beautiful lover to 
the hilt.  Crys cried out in pain, clenching his teeth, and Lu nearly stopped.  
But, he soon realized the problem.  His love was a virgin.  The canine leaned 
down again and licked Crys' muzzle, which was contorted in pain, and felt it 
relax slightly.
	"It'll only hurt for a second, but I promise, you'll like it," Lu 
whispered gently, drawing back.  Crys nodded slightly, signaling for Lu to 
continue.  The wolf placed his paws on the feline's hips, smoothing over them 
and clenching them again as he pulled out, almost to the head, then plunged back 
in again, causing Crys to bite his bottom lip.  Lu thrust out and in again, and 
watched as Crys' face relaxed, then changed completely.  It was obvious the pain 
had subsided, and the pleasure was seeping in.
	Soon, the wolf had a thrusting rhythm, driving his cock slowly in and out 
of his feline lover, sending waves of pleasure through both of them as the 
wolf's meat prodded Crys' prostate.  The feline soon got into the rhythm, 
pushing back and meeting each thrust, then pulling away as Lu did, causing even 
more pleasure to shoot through his body.  Lu could feel the cum welling in him 
as he thrust, and was soon grinding into his lover's ass, pumping harder and 
faster than before.  Crys moaned and purred again, sending a low vibration 
through his whole body, all the way to his rear, where Lu moaned at the feeling 
of it.  Lu slipped his paw around Crys' cock and began pumping it in rhythm with 
his thrusting, causing the jaguar to moan and thrust up into the paw grasping 
him.
	"Don't...hold back..." Crys gasped as their rhythm increased slightly.  Lu 
couldn't stand being on the edge anymore, and slammed his hips against his 
feline lover's ass, pumping his cock just as fast and hard.  Crys arched his 
back and moaned very loudly, feeling his orgasm come in waves as his seed shot 
out onto his chest and belly.  Lu was very close, and with a final massive 
thrust, let his load loose inside his love, his orgasm sending huge waves of 
pleasure through him.  The wolf threw his head back and howled as his seed shot 
into his love, and was shocked to hear a deep-throated roar come from Crys.  The 
two panted hard as Lu's orgasm finally subsided, their chests heaving with every 
breath.  Lu had never had such an earth-shaking orgasm before, and silently 
wished he had just waited for Crys all along.  The wolf soon fell atop his love, 
pressing Crys' cum between their bellies, and they both hugged each other close, 
smiling and panting.
	The two lovers lay like that for over an hour, when suddenly, Lu asked, 
"So what was in that envelope, anyways?"  He pulled up and looked his love in 
the eyes, who had almost fallen asleep before the question arose.
	"Get up, and I'll show you!" Crys smiled, pressing a paw to his lover's 
strong chest.  Lu pulled his softened cock out of his love's ass, and as soon as 
he did, it retreated back to its sheath.  Crys gasped slightly at the feeling of 
it leaving him, then rolled out of bed, walking to the door and out of the room.  
When he came back, still covered in his own seed, as well as that of Lu dripping 
down his thigh, he handed the wolf the envelope.
	"Open it!" the feline said anxiously, grinning at his lover.  Lu ripped 
open the envelope quickly and pulled out a very formal-looking slip of paper.  
It read:
"To my beloved Lu, I sign away my virginity, as well as my eternal love.  I'll 
love you forever, Lu.  Merry Christmas.
Your Boyfriend,
Crystal Kaelbrid"
The little slip was signed elegantly by Crys, who smiled at his love.
	"I just thought I'd make it official, in writing, that you are now the 
keeper of my heart, and that I've willingly given you my virginity as a symbol 
of my love for you," Crys said officially, giving a warm smile.
	"I think you've given me the greatest gift I could ever receive, Crys," Lu 
replied slowly, tears welling in his eyes.  He stood up and clung to his lover, 
leaving the slip of paper on the bed.  "I love you Crys," he said as he hugged 
the jaguar, kissing his neck softly.
	"I love you too, Lu," Crys said, hugging close to the wolf.
