The hedgehog was himself clad in sheer black boxer briefs with crimson banding that complimented his own hues.\n\n       “They're not white,” said the puzzled fox, sitting cross-legged on the couch with a stack of videos.  He reared up slightly and showed his briefs to Shadow.  “They're supposed to be sky blue, but I guess they faded.  I wear these a lot.  The waistband is still blue, see?”\n\n       “It’s just a saying, no need to get technical,” snickered Shadow.  “They suit you, they’re cute.”  With hand on hip, he presented himself for the young fox's review.  \"How about mine?  I trust these are acceptable?”\n\n       “Wow, those are nice!” chimed Tails.  Clad only in briefs and socks, the fox boy curled his toes excitedly.  “You see, me, Sonic and Knux unanimously voted underwear to be the official uniform of guys' movie night.  And guys' gamer night.  You're in.”\n\n       Shadow cocked an eye.  “I’m surprised you three don’t have a totally-not-gay wrestling night, too.”\n\n       “It’s just called wrestling night, if you [i]must [/i]know,” corrected Tails indignantly.  “The dish is still messed up from the storm, so we can’t stream anything.  I’ll fix it tomorrow.  But I found these oldies the hall closet, some look pretty good.  Wanna see?”  Tails started to carefully hoist the teetering stack for Shadow's inspection.\n\n       “Hold that thought,” said Shadow, stepping towards the kitchen.  “I'll definitely need coffee for this, it’s been steeping long enough.  Did you want some, or anything else while I’m up?”\n\n       “No thank you,” smiled Tails, putting the videos off to the side.  “My tongue is still kinda burning from dinner, I don’t want anything hot.  That was really good, by the way.  What was it called again?”\n\n       Shadow smiled, pushing down the plunger on the coffee press.  “Spicy chicken spinach peanut curry with roasted peppers.  Over lentils and saffron rice.  I’ll teach you some others this week.  Thank you for dicing vegetables and measuring and washing up, by the way.  Your help made it go so much faster.”  \n\n       “The pleasure’s all mine, Shad.  Pretty hot dish though,” chuckled Tails, wiping a bead of sweat from his brow.  “I might not use as much curry next time, Sonic can’t handle anything spicier than a chili dog.  If he overdoes hot peppers he has to drink a ton of milk and… has problems all night.  Oh, that reminds me, Knux said I could try one of his import beers.  Could you please bring me one?”  Tails squinted, reading the back of the topmost video box to himself.  “Tenticaligula?  I bet [i]that's[/i] a scary monster.”\n\n       “A beer?” muttered Shadow to himself, opening the fridge and peering in.  “Can’t imagine he drinks beer.”  Rummaging downwards through each shelf, Shadow’s rump protruded from behind the open door.  “Let’s see—ugh, is that moldy broccoli?  Disgusting.  Oh, and soggy, half-eaten sandwiches, too.  Lovely.  I’m going to have to clean this all out tomorrow.  Now where did that that red lummox hide his… ah hah!  There they are.”  Peering out from behind the door, Shadow eyed Tails skeptically.  “Tails, the only beer I see has a note that says 'DO NOT DRINK'.  With the initial 'K' next to an angry frowny-face.  Am I missing something?  These seem rather off limits.”\n\n       Tails scratched his cheek with the corner of the box.  “No, those are it.  Red Quill, I think it's called.  That note's just for Sonic because he never asks first.  Like when he ate all the cookies I bought from the Omochao Scouts.  I asked Knux nicely, so he said I could have one.  Don't tell Sonic, okay?”\n\n       Shadow laughed as he pulled out a beer.  “You know what?  I believe you.  But if I find out you're lying, I'm ratting you out the moment Knuckles gets back.  I know what it's like to try and steal from an echidna and it's not pretty.”   Tails opened his mouth to say something but closed it again, listening to Shadow take glassware from the cupboards and pop the bottle cap.  Sighing, he moved the videos to the coffee table as Shadow returned with beverages in hand.  “Here we are.  Black coffee for me, Red Quill for you.”\n\n       “Thanks,” said Tails half-heartedly, looking down at his hands.\n\n       Shadow eyed the downcast fox as he set down their drinks.  “What's the matter?”\n\n       Tails' voice was soft.  “I wouldn't lie to you, Shad.  Or steal.  Friends don't do that.”  He looked innocently up at Shadow.  “Why do you always think I'm up to something?”\n\n       Shadow sat next to Tails and leaned back, tugging the front of his boxers for a little extra room.  “Up to something?  Look, you're not old enough to drink, it's as simple as that.  And that note doesn't exactly say help yourself, so forgive me if I think I'm being outfoxed.  No offense.”\n\n       “None taken.  But there's been other times too, ever since you got here.  You ask me where I'm going, who I'm texting, always checking to see where I am.  You didn't even let me sign for that package this morning.”\n\n       “It looked suspicious,” shrugged shadow, blowing on his coffee.\n\n       Tails rolled his eyes.  “It was my package, I was expecting it.  It even said  'fragile - airplane parts' on the side.”\n\n       Shadow took a small sip before clinking his cup back on its saucer.  “You're forgetting my previous occupation, kiddo.  Sure, it's airplane parts.  Arriving at daybreak for some reason.  But it would also be a great way to send a bomb, poison, or perhaps a nasty little robotic surprise.  You and Sonic have left quite the trail of ruined, bitter enemies behind you, some of whom remain unaccounted for.  I should know, I was almost one of them.”\n\n       “Sorry.”  Tails looked back down at his folded hands. \n\n       “Don't be.”  Shadow set down his coffee and patted Tails' thigh reassuringly.  “Getting shown a way out was the best thing that ever happened to me, but I'm an exception.  I do trust you, Tails.  Sonic too, for the most part.  But amnesia makes a person guarded, especially when you recall things you're not proud of.  Don’t take it personally.”\n\n       Tails tilted his head and smiled softly at Shadow.  “I guess when Sonic says keep an eye on me, you really follow through, huh?”\n\n       Shadow nodded.  “I promise I'll try to relax.  And not take it so... literally.”  Shadow retrieved his coffee and took a long, satisfied sip.  “I shouldn’t worry, I’ve seen you hold your own in a fight.  I’m sure that Jet character won’t forget his busted collarbone anytime soon.”\n\n       “I don’t think I ever punched anyone that hard before,” grinned Tails, rubbing his fist.  “Hey, I’ve been meaning to ask you.  What did you and Sonic do with him after that?  All I remember was auntie Rouge bandaging my hand and taking me with her.  I asked her, but she told me not to worry about it.”\n\n       “And you should heed her advice,” said Shadow coolly, sipping his coffee.  \n\n       “Oh.  Okay,” smiled Tails, reaching for his beer.  “She’s really cool, I hope she visits again soon.  This is new for me too, I'm kind of used to being ignored.  Until something breaks, that is.  It's why I like movie night.  Just me and my closest friends, laughing and hanging out, no work or visitors or shop talk getting in the way.  I hope you like it too, Shad.” \n\n       “I like good movies,” nodded Shadow, resting his coffee against his midriff and setting his feet on the table.  “Emphasis on 'good'.  Those, however, look like they were fished from a dumpster.”\n\n       Tails giggled.  “You’re almost right.  Knux took these to the record store for credit, but they didn't want them.”  His blue eyes brightened as he held up his beer.  “To Shadow—movie night virgin no more!”\n\n       “Deflowered and at your service, fox-butt.”  Shadow clinked his cup with Tails' bottle and watched the fox chug a few brave gulps.  “So, what's the verdict on Red Quill?”\n\n       Wiping his mouth with the back of his hand, Tails licked his lips, seemingly pleased at first, but his face quickly soured as the aftertaste assaulted his youthful palate.  “Eww,” he winced, setting the half-emptied beer on the table and belting out a robust belch.  “Oops!  Excuse me.  It's really bitter at the end.  Like pee, or maybe battery acid?  I don't like it.”\n\n       Shadow laughed, nearly spilling coffee on himself as he quickly pulled his feet from the table and set down the cup.  “Like pee or maybe battery acid!  Not exactly a stellar review.”  Shadow wiped a tear from the corner of his eye.  “Come now, it can't be [i]that [/i]bad.”  Reaching over, he slowly polished off the beer.  Pondering the flavor thoughtfully for a moment, Shadow winced as well, his ears flattening as he set down the bottle.  “Actually, that's a fair assessment.  Dreadful.  I'll dig up a decent bottle of wine for us tomorrow, perhaps with dinner.”\n\n       “I'd like that,” smiled Tails, hopping down and running to the kitchen before returning with a can of soda and cracking it open.  “What should we watch first?  How about that top one, [i]Naughty Ninjas?[/i] Tails leaned against Shadow's arm as they peered at the back cover.  “Wow.  For ninjas, they sure don't wear much clothing.  Who's that guy?  Is he the villain?  The girl ninjas are doing the funny kiss on--”\n\n       “Uh, we're not watching this,” stammered Shadow, quickly shoving the video to the bottom of the stack and inspecting the others.  “Let's see.  [i]Terms of Enrearment[/i]... no.  [i]My Little Horses Magical Rappin' Christmas Adventure[/i]... good lord, no.  [i]Inspector Shadow[/i]...  possibly.  [i]Turbo the Mole-Rat[/i]...”\n\n       Tails squinted at the box.  “Turbo the what?” \n\n       “It's animated.”  Shadow read the back cover.  “Meet Turbo, the fastest Mole-Rat around!  Together with his trusty fennec sidekick Ears and their allies the Patriot Pals, Turbo leads a revolt against Professor Von Eggplant, a dictator bent on stealing the Mayhem Moonstones for his ultimate weapon!  Will Eggplant succeed?  Or will Turbo and his friends, something something, teamwork...”  Shadow turned helplessly to Tails.\n\n       “That sounds retarded,” said Tails flatly.\n\n       “Agreed.  Moving on.”  Shadow held up the next box.  “[i]Space Cop[/i].  He's a cop.  A cop from the future of space.  Who travels back to the present and teams up with a cop who was frozen in the past but then thawed in the future, which is now present.  Except a few years later.  Together, they fight evil aliens.  Rated B for BLOOD.”  Shadow beamed.  “That's not really how time travel works, but I do like his GUN.  Nice and big.”\n\n       “Blood 'n guns,” chuckled Tails.  “Shadow approves!”\n\n       “Load that sucker up.”  Tails did as bidden and excitedly took his seat next to Shadow.  As the opening credits unfolded to explosions and murder, the fox looked up admiringly at Shadow and leaned against him gently, the pair smiling as they sipped their beverages.  Shadow sighed contentedly and snugged Tails by the shoulder.  “Ahh.  This isn't so bad.”\n\n[i][t]Some bad movies later...[/t][/i]\n\n       “This is horrible,” groaned Shadow, his smile and enthusiasm lost in the sands of time. His resolve was corroded nearly to nil.  His eyes dry and slightly bloodshot, the hedgehog's stiff and sore muscles cried for relief.  [i]My Little Horses Magical Rappin' Christmas Adventure[/i] lay snapped in pieces nearby on the floor.  [i]Tenticaligula, Vampires vs. Zombies—The Movie[/i] and [i]Wombatman vs. Supermandrill[/i] had suffered similar fates.  Several emptied coffee cups and an additional bottle or two of Red Quill had made things passable earlier in the evening, but their effects had long since worn off, leaving a pasty exhaustion in their wake.  Worse, an unfazed Tails was handily defeating Shadow in battle.  Not even a desperate best-of-three maneuver could save the flagging hedgehog, who frowned as the fox held up his scissors-hand and “cut” Shadow's paper.  \"Ha!  I win again, Shad!  Next up is [i]Vampires vs. Zombies 2—The Headsplosioning.”[/i]  Tails happily grabbed the box and knelt before the player to swap videos.\n\n       “There's a sequel?” Shadow's head flopped back against the cushions in defeat.  “Pardon me while I quietly pray for my own death.”  \n\n       “What's the matter, Shad?” grinned Tails wryly, “I thought you liked violence.  [i]Space Cop[/i] was pretty fun.  And look at the floor!”  Tails nodded at the broken videos.\n\n       “I do.  But these movies... so very, very awful.”  Shadow tiredly rubbed his face.  “They deserved it.  The fact they’ve drained me and damaged my brain is the only reason I haven’t taken the pieces outside and burned them.”\n\n       “Well, no loss I guess,” giggled Tails.  “We did try to get rid of them.  At least now I know one of your secret weaknesses.”\n\n       “That terrible movies negate my energy?  They’re like the opposite of chaos emeralds.”  Shadow yawned and eyed the couch’s armrest.  “I agree, the first two titles were fine.  But the rest?  I honestly don’t understand how anyone can purposefully sit down and watch garbage.”\n\n       “That’s part of movie night,” smiled Tails, standing back up.  “You go in cold.  You never know what you’re going to get, and sometimes it's amazing.  But it’s also a gamble and we just lost.  But so what?  It’s not like we paid money to see these.  Let me see if this next one is any good, then we can shut it off and go to bed, I promise.”\n\n       Shadow was unmoved.  “The fact you're curious whether a movie called [i]Vampires vs. Zombies 2—The Headsplosioning[/i] might be good,” said Shadow, making air quotes, “proves you're either too young to have taste yet or you're the world’s greatest optimist.  I predict it will be atrocious.”\n\n       “Aww, c’mon Shad,” pleaded Tails, flashing his big blue eyes.  “Just give it a shot.”\n\n       Shadow chuckled.  “I left my gun at home.”\n\n       “That’s NOT what I meant,” huffed the fox.\n\n       “Fine, fine, let’s give it spin,” sighed Shadow.  “But if I am to be tortured again, I demand to be comfortable.”  Shadow flopped back into the couch and sighed deeply, stretching his athletic limbs one by one.  “I don't know why I didn't think of this earlier,” he yawned, curling his toes.\n\n       Tails padded back to the couch and frowned.  “Hey, there's no room for me now.”\n\n       “Of course there is,” smiled Shadow softly, scooting his head and shoulders back against the padded armrest and patting his stomach.  “Climb aboard.”\n\n       “Oh,” blushed tails, placing a finger on his lower lip and looking over Shadow's body.  “You want me to...”  Tails gingerly climbed on the edge of the cushions, looking for a spot to lay next to the hedgehog or perhaps sit between his slightly parted legs.  “Maybe I'll just sit on the floor.  I don't want to get you too warm.”\n\n       Shadow grinned, glimpsing the tug-of-war between shyness and curiosity on the fox's face.  “Your butt’s mine now, remember?  And I don’t want it in the floor.  I insist.”  Shadow effortlessly hoisted the surprised fox face-to-face atop himself, the hedgehog's white chest ruff making for an inviting if impromptu pillow.  Taking a deep, relaxing breath, Shadow hugged the fox and began to massage the boy's lower back and hips.  “There.  Now I have a living shield to protect me from bad movies.  Comfy?”\n\n       “This works,” grinned Tails, his cheeks flushed pink.  As he lay draped atop the warm, fit hedgehog, the young fox slowly began to melt under Shadow’s attentive, exploring hands.  He curled his arms softly against Shadow's sides as both eyed the screen, which showed a montage of stylishly dressed kickboxing vampires battling the titular zombies, the latter suffering exploded heads aplenty.  \n\n       Amused by the mayhem, Shadow let his fingers methodically massage and work their way up Tails’ spine.  “Wow, the vamps are just going for it, eh?  They might win me over this time.  Ooo.  Yeah!  Good spray pattern on that one.  Yesss!  Kick that fucker’s head in!”  Shadow winced, stopping the massage for a moment.  “I mean, kick that sucker’s head in…”  He shrugged apologetically at Tails, who simply giggled and patted the hedgehog’s side.\n\n       “Can't go wrong with exploding heads,” grinned Tails.  “You must like it, I can hear your heart speeding up through your chest.” \n\n       Shadow chuckled and stroked Tails' soft headfur.  “At least that proves I still have one.”\n\n       “I’m just glad you’re into it,” smiled Tails, shifting his slender hips.  He noticed his bulge was pressed, rather snugly, against Shadow's.  “Um, Shad?  I'm... I'm not squishing you, am I?”  \n\n       “I'd call it more snuggling than squishing,” smiled Shadow.  “And I rather like it.”  Shadow stressed the point by playfully thrusting his hips a couple of times, intentionally prodding his considerable slumbering maleness into the fox’s.  “Does it bother you?”  Tails gave Shadow a mischievous glance and pressed his bulge right back into the hedgehog’s.  “I’ll take that as a no.”  Tails lay his soft cheek against Shadow’s chest as the pair wordlessly watched the rest of the first half.  Able to recline and recover from his earlier torment, Shadow gently rubbed Tails' neck, shoulder blades, spine, lower back, hips and the top of his buttocks all in turn, massaging more firmly wherever he found a particularly tense spot.  Not much was said, nor was there need, until the movie’s initial promise evaporated, leaving behind a turgid, boring soap opera.  “A guy your age should not have this much muscle tension,” whispered Shadow into Tails' ear.  “You work too hard, always hunkered down over some gadget or other.”\n\n       “I know,” slurred Tails softly, his face a picture of bliss, eyelids drooping contentedly.  He dreamily rubbed his socks against Shadow's legs.  “Sonic gives good back rubs too, it's one of my favorite things.  Ooo…  right there.  Sonic likes foot rubs too, especially—ah!—if you want to get him to—ungh!  Do stuff for you.  Mmmff...”  \n\n       “Duly noted,” grinned Shadow.  “And I hope he's willing to share.  He texted while you were in the shower, by the way.”\n\n       “Yeah, I got one too,” grunted Tails, his body shifting as Shadow massaged over his kidneys.  “Hundred degrees out, Knux missed his opening gig and Amy’s already bumming cash off him.  Says he misses us.”\n\n       “As well he should, the big blue dope.”  Shadow's brow furrowed as he pressed his fingers into the tight muscles around the base of the fox's twin tails.  “These have to be sore, they're practically knots.”\n\n       “Nnnnughh!” moaned the fox, nearly drooling as Shadow's powerful fingers went to work.  “It's from yesterday—ah!  Ohh... right there.  I flew way longer than I—uhh!!—I should have.”  Tails began to rub Shadow's sides and shoulders appreciatively.  “At least you—nnnggff!—take care of me.  Maybe I—oof—should lose more often.”\n\n       “You've a nice bod, foxy. I'd say we both won.”  Blissfully ignoring the movie, Shadow eased off Tails' more tender spots and resumed gently caressing his back and nape.  His fingertips left goose pimples and soft, boyish moans in their wake, stroking in slow, deliberate circles against the soft fur and delicate skin.  The fox boy's scent was subtle, clean and sweet.  Shadow drank it in, inhaling deeply as he nuzzled into the base of his warm, velvety ear.  The fox enchanted.  So beautiful.  So close.  Shadow wanted more, but felt a tinge of nerves.  Would the boy allow it?  Would Sonic?  Would he even know?  Was it right to even be asking?  So tempting...  let the scholars debate.  Shadow took a deep breath.  Leaning in, he opened his mouth and gently seized the outer third of Tails' ear, tenderly nibbling it.\n\n       Tails let out a small gasp and tensed momentarily, but relaxed again as Shadow's lips explored and savored the sensitive appendage.  Finding no resistance of note, Shadow nibbled and kissed more freely, his lips making their way to the base of Tails' ear, then his soft cheek, then lower still to his tender neck.  The hedgehog's nibbly, exploring muzzle made the fox's entire body tingle, like little sheets of stars fanning out to his belly and toes.  Tails brought his hands up and caressed the hedgehog's furry chest in kind, slowly rubbing his soft cheek against the ruff and enjoying his friend's clean, masculine scent.  “Mmm...  that feels really good...” he whispered dreamily, planting small, discreet kisses on the hedgehog's chest.  Tails felt his foxhood begin to stir within his briefs, the bulge hardening right against Shadow's, which mirrored the response.  Tails' throat grew dry and tight; he was becoming lightheaded.  Timidly he met Shadow's confident gaze, the hedgehog's eyes glowing like little red lanterns of want.  “I...  I don't care about the movie anymore, Shad,” said Tails nervously.  “You want do something else?  Maybe... with me?”  Nearly croaking the last word, Tails swallowed hard.\n\n       “Something else?” grinned Shadow, his voice soft and deep.  He caressed down the length of the boy's soft, slender back and gave the fox's briefs-clad bubble butt a firm squeeze.  “I can think of quite a few things I'd like to do with you.  Wonderful, exciting things.  I'd like to teach you, if you'll let me.”  Tails nodded, both his hands taking one of Shadow's and caressing it needfully.  With a playful smirk, Shadow reached over and mashed the remote's OFF button with his free hand, killing off the now flaccid movie.  Beyond the soft shuffle of their bodies pressing together, all the pair could hear was a chorus of crickets outside and the distant roll of the ocean.  Cradling Tails' soft cheek, Shadow kissed him sweetly on the lips, bringing forth an appreciative moan from the fox.  “Understand, though.  You must trust me and you must talk with me.  Don't bottle anything up.  Good partners understand this.  We will [i]only [/i]go as far as you are comfortable with.  If you stay stop, we stop.”\n\n       “But I don't want to stop,” whispered Tails, kissing across Shadow's hand and fingers, “I want to keep going, Shad.  Teach me...”\n\n       Shadow took Tails' hand and kissed it.  “Just follow my lead.”  Leaning up slightly against the armrest, Shadow planted a full, firm kiss on Tails' tender lips, one hand sliding down to cup and squeeze the fox boy's rump as the other slowly fondled his chest, where he soon found a small but very erect nipple.  Gently rolling the fox's pink nub between thumb and forefinger, Shadow was rewarded with a loud moan that punctuated their kiss.  Shadow became more insistent, his lips pressing Tails' mouth open as the softly trembling fox closed his eyes.  A lustful whimper escaped Tails' mouth as Shadow slipped in his tongue.  Snaking in, the latter quickly found its quarry, curling and coiling wetly around Tails' tongue, the hedgehog savoring the wet, faintly spicy, sugar-tinged taste of the boy's mouth.  Pressing his growing erection reflexively against Shadow's, Tails suckled back against the hedgehog's commanding tongue, awkwardly at first, but as he too became more aroused, the fox was soon pushing his tongue into Shadow's mouth, the pair exchanging saliva and breath alike.  Slipping his hand under Tails' tails and into his briefs, Shadow tickled along the fox's fuzzy crease before pressing in and petting the tender pink folds around his foxhole.  Tails moaned loudly again deep into Shadow's mouth, his hot breath stolen away as quickly as he exhaled it. Tails' trapped erection now pressed and prodded painfully into Shadow's.  The fox's repeated boyish moans mingled with the hedgehog's low, contented rumble.  When he finally broke the kiss, Tails did so reluctantly.  \n\n       “W-wait,” panted Tails, a strand of saliva connecting his lower lip to Shadow's.  As if doing a pushup, the fox reared up and peeked down between their bodies to where their bulges pressed.  Both cocks were now fully erect, straining against their respective confines and sporting impressive wet spots.  “I'm gonna shoot in my undies if we keep going like that.”\n\n       “Then let's take them off,” whispered Shadow, tugging Tails' briefs downward.  “Let Shadow see you.”  Rearing up, Tails straddled Shadow's thighs, his briefs tenting impressively as he rubbed his concealed erection against Shadow's.  The hedgehog looked on, smiling and patiently caressing the boy's soft thighs.  “You're a naughtier fox than I surmised.  Yes...  [i]rub [/i]that hot foxy dick with mine.  See?  They like each other.”  Blushing brightly, Tails hooked his thumbs into his waistband and gingerly slipped his briefs down until his curved, rock-hard cock sprang up and slapped his soft, white belly. Once freed, Tails tossed his briefs to the floor.  Shadow gently cupped and caressed the fox's silky white orbs and the impossibly soft inner thigh fur surrounding them.  “Very, very nice.  Sonic's right, it [i]is [/i]a good size.” \n\n       “Thank you,” blushed Tails gratefully, curling his arms cutely against his chest as he stuck out his hips and watched Shadow fondle him for a few moments.  Eyeing the hedgehog's impressive bulge, Tails reached for the waistband of Shadow's boxer briefs.  “Now let's get yours out.”  Shadow grinned mischievously as he and Tails both pulled down his boxers, freeing the hedgehog's long, thick cock, which rose to attention like a steel crane.  Mouth agape, Tails' eyes widened at the sight.  “Whoa... it's big!”\n\n       Tilting his head, Shadow gently tugged and fondled the fox's jutting cock.  “And it's all for you, foxy.  Careful, though.  It takes some training to shoot big guns properly.  But I suspect you're up to the task.”\n\n       Kneeling over one of Shadow's legs, Tails leaned in and inhaled the clean, masculine, almost spicy scent rising from Shadow's shaft, the fox rubbing the hedgehog's silky thigh fur on either side.  “May I please touch it?”  \n\n       “So polite,” chuckled Shadow.  “Yes, you may touch.”\n\n       Tails tentatively gripped Shadow's cock just above the hilt.  Handsomely shaped with a nearly intact foreskin, it felt warm, spongy and muscular, too thick at its base for Tails' fingers and thumb to meet.  “So warm...”  Tails could feel it throb against his hand.  Like its owner, Shadow’s cock was dusky with lighter area below the head, symmetrical, upright and handsome.  A large, attractive pair of obsidian orbs completed the picture.  Transfixed, the curious fox cupped Shadow's hefty balls in one hand, rolling them slightly as he started to stroke Shadow’s pole with the other.  Tails’ breathing grew heavy.  He licked his lips, watching Shadow’s satiny foreskin slide up and down over the attractive glans, a silky pearl of precum beading at the tip.  The spicy, sweet scent drew him closer.  Something was urging him on.  He liked what he saw; he craved it.  Swallowing the excess saliva that refused to abate, Tails’ own cock pressed hotly into the hedgehog’s thigh as he held Shadow's erection still for a moment and licked his lips.  The fire-eyed hedgehog watched intently.  Trembling softly with anticipation, Tails leaned in and opened his mouth, his pink tongue and wet lips lowering onto Shadow's cock head.\n\n       “Ah ah,” Shadow slipped his hand under Tails' chin and caressed it.  “That’s a bit more than touch.”  His mouth closing slightly, Tails blinked and looked up at Shadow as if he had done something wrong.  The hedgehog smiled reassuringly.  “Be patient, foxy.  As much as I want that—and believe me, I do—that's a lesson all its own.  Tomorrow perhaps.  Right now, I need you to finish lesson one.  So bring those foxy lips back up here.”\n\n       “Y-yes, Shadow,” smiled Tails bashfully, still blushing as he reared up and gingerly lay himself back atop the hedgehog, making sure their erections mirrored one another.  Tails curled his soft, boyish arms around Shadow's broad shoulders as their warm, throbbing lengths pressed together.  They kissed once more, now with gusto, the fox boy's tongue and muffled, needful moans soon filling Shadow's appreciative mouth.  Shadow gave slow, deliberate thrusts, his long, sinewy, leaking rod rubbing the whole of Tails’ shorter length as their slickened heads and frenula swirled and swiped wetly together, edging them both relentlessly closer to climax.  Tails panted into Shadow's mouth, suckling, licking, craving release, male to male, cock to engorged cock, their balls steadily tightening as they brushed and bumped together.  Tails’ caressing, groping hands stumbled across Shadow’s nipples as they kissed, the fox boy rolling them in his nimble fingers.\n\n       “Fffuck yesssss,” hissed the hedgehog, his forehead beading with sweat as an especially generous strand of pre slipped from his slit.  Tails tugged downward on Shadow's nipples, pinching hard as the pair now frotted as fast as their hips would allow.  Shadow's fiery eyes widened at the unexpected provocation.  “Ohh, ffffffuuuuck!  [i]Hrrrrr...[/i]” Shadow's head flopped back against the armrest, tossing side to side as his own large, sweaty orbs tightened precipitously.  He thrust even harder up into the fox's cock, gnashing his teeth to forestall orgasm, but it was of little use.  The obsidian hedgehog growled.  “Not… fair, [i]hero[/i].  Ohhh, you little orange cockhound...  roll daddy's nips… fuck my cock…”  Not one to go down so easily, Shadow reached up and gave Tails the same treatment, flicking and rolling the boy's hard, pink nipples under his cottony chest fluff.\n\n       “NNNnngghh!!”  Tails huffed hotly, his face drawing into a reddened, open-mouthed mask of impending, desperately needed release.  His toes began to curl and uncurl, his tails partly aloft and flicking wildly.  Tails’ thrusts suddenly grew short and spastic, almost mechanical.   “Sh—Shadow!!” he cried helplessly, “I'm gonna COOOOOME!” \n\n       “That’s it,” hissed Shadow fitfully.  “[i]Cum[/i] for me, foxy.”  Rearing up, Shadow plunged the pair back into a wet, ecstatic kiss.  Shadow could feel Tails' cock throb and spasm against his own as  the fox boy burst like a small floodgate, shooting spurt after spurt of hot, semi clear semen over their throbbing cock heads and injecting itself deep between their bellies.  Tails' whole body shook as his muffled cries of pleasure filled Shadow's mouth.  The sudden, pulsing warmth and wetness and the angelic beauty of the fox boy's body and face in their orgasmic state pitched Shadow headlong into explosive climax, his face contorted and red.  “Hrrrfff!!  HRRRRFFF!!!  HHRRRRGGH!!!!  HRRRRRGGHH!!!!\"  The force of Shadow’s ejaculation sent gobs of hot, white cum far between their bodies, leaking down both sides and soaking their torsos.  Even as the pair slowly broke the kiss to pant for air, it took some time for Shadow's orgasm to subside before they collapsed against one another.  The fox and hedgehog opened their eyes and nuzzled one another tenderly as the last of their combined fluids leaked out warmly between them.  “Lesson one... success,” panted Shadow, sliding his hands down to Tails' buttocks and squeezing them playfully.  “With bonus points for volume.”  \n\n       “Wow... I've never done [i]any[/i]thing like that before,” huffed Tails, the fox wet, winded and flushed.  Rearing up on wobbly arms and shaky knees, Tails grinned down at Shadow as they peeked at the mess between their bellies, their noses immediately filled with the scent of their combined seed, which soaked them through and through.  “You made lots, I felt it,” giggled Tails, taking a bit of cum from Shadow's belly on his a fingertip and tasting it.  “It's kinda sweet.”\n\n       “It should be, coming from you,” smiled Shadow, stroking Tails’ hips and cheeks.  “It’s all those sweets you sneak into your shop.  You’ve got me started on them now, too.”\n\n       Sitting back to straddle Shadow's thighs, Tails titled his head an squeezed their soaked, slowly softening cocks together.  “I want to do that again, Shad!”\n\n       “We shall,” nodded Shadow, looking over Tails’ damp body, “There are other lessons ahead, so long as you want them.”\n\n       “I want!” grinned the fox boy, stroking their members together in one hand, “But maybe next time, you could... uh...”  Giddy with afterglow, Tails suddenly looked away, smiling shyly.  “Well, I kind of want you to... to try...”\n\n       “Just spit it out,” chuckled Shadow tiredly.  “Like I said, talk to me.  What would make you happy?”\n\n       Tails bit his lower lip and looked down.  “Maybe next time I could be like... the girl?  With you inside me, doing my butt.”  Tails blinked worriedly, unsure how the hedgehog might take the graphic request.       \n\n       “A true fox,” chuckled Shadow softly, taking Tails' damp hand off their spent cocks and kissing it.  “I need to think about it first.  What you’re asking for is very intimate, and there’s a lesson or two I’d prefer to give you first.  Give me a little time.”  Tails nodded, relaxing a bit.  “Now come on, mister sticky.  Let's hit the shower before we fall asleep or we'll wake up cemented together.”\n\n       Spent as they were, neither Shadow nor Tails would recall much of the shower, though someone casually sharing the bathroom would have seen them happily chatting and washing one another behind the steamy glass, enjoying the intimate company and the natural high of a powerful afterglow.  Apart from Shadow helping to lather and rinse both of the fox's tails, always a chore, the time passed quickly, with only a single, sweet kiss at the shower's end hinting at the evening’s earlier events.\n\n       Shadow plopped against the stack of pillows on the master bed, laying his hand on his belly and sighing in deep relief.  The cool, fluffy bed was heaven itself.  He smiled over at the cute, freshly toweled fox boy, the pair luxuriating in the soothing linen embrace as Tails continued their conversation.  “It just seems like every time I even get close to a girl, something awful happens.  Someone butts in, or she already has a boyfriend, or a girlfriend, or she doesn't care about anything I do.  And when I do get a date, it's usually just a matter of time before she finds out that--that--\"\t\n\n       “That you both like dicks?” snickered Shadow tiredly.  His face scrunching, Tails punched Shadow's bicep.  Hard.  “Ouch!”  The surprised hedgehog laughed, playfully turning aside and shielding himself with his forearms as the slightly damp fox lunged.\n\n       “Takes one to know one, [i]faker!\"[/i] sneered Tails, the fox grinning and landing a few glancing blows on Shadow's arms and shoulders.  Tails giggled, grabbing a pillow and thrashing Shadow with the business end.  \"Maybe I do, but you don't have to be a jerk about it.  I still wanna know about girls!\"\n\n       “I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself.  Truce, truce!”  laughed Shadow, catching Tails' arms and kissing each clenched fist in turn.  “I yield.  That was very crude of me.  I apologize.  Stand down, fox-butt.\"\n\n       “All right,” snickered Tails, setting the pillow down and flopping back down next to Shadow.  “But only because you groveled.  And really know how to kiss.  What I was gonna say is, they always find out I'm with Sonic.”  Tails made a girly voice.  “Oh, I see!  You must be the little sidekick, then.  What's Sonic like?  Is he dating right now?”  Tails blew a wet raspberry with his lips.  “The last girl I dated was really cool, an artist and a gamer.  I really, really liked her.  But when she finally came over and met Sonic, she ask me if I was 'the bottom' and stopped calling me.  I told Knux about it and he laughed so hard he almost peed himself.  I STILL don't know what I did wrong.”\n\n       Shadow chuckled, pulling Tails closer.  “You did nothing [i]wrong[/i], per se.  She just might be on to something.  Or you really weren't her type, and she just wanted an easy out.\"\n\n       “But what's being the bottom?” asked Tails quizzically.  “That someone's not important?  Like, the bottom of the barrel?  That figures.”  Tails huffed and looked away.\n\n       “It's not that at all,” yawned Shadow, shaking his head.  He squeezed Tails' hand reassuringly.  “Just know that it means a very sweet and wonderful kind of guy.  One that guys like [i]me[/i] love being with.”  Shadow kissed Tails sweetly on the lips and nose, then reached over to turn out the light before settling in at last.  “Now, it’s insanely late and I’m fading like crazy.  Let’s get some sleep, hero.”\n\n       “Okay,” yawned Tails, his eyes lidding heavily.  “G'night, Shad.  I really like being with you.  You make me feel really good inside.\"  The fox snuggled close, his nose pressed into Shadow's.  Curious how he might react, Tails reached over and gave Shadow a very private squeeze under the sheets.  “I hope we play again soon.\"\n\n       “What have I done?” sighed Shadow, gently pulling Tails' hand up from his crotch to his belly and squeezing it.  \"Soon, I promise.  But until then, don't get any ideas, silly fox.  Sweet dreams.”  Shadow exhaled blissfully and drifted to sleep, muttering a few more things, things about respect and consent and timing.  Most of it was lost on the exhausted fox boy, his own mind racing towards vivid dreams about what he and Shadow might do next.  The silly fox was very much getting ideas.\n\n","writing_bbcode_parsed":"<span style='word-wrap: break-word;'><strong>Disclaimer and warning.</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>This story is entirely fictional and for entertainment purposes only.&nbsp;&nbsp;I do not own the characters and no monetary gain was made or sought.&nbsp;&nbsp;Chapters contain adult themes and may include explicit depictions of sex (e.g. gay, anthropomorphic and adult/teen).&nbsp;&nbsp;If you are under the age of eighteen, live where such material is not legal or find such themes offensive, read no further.&nbsp;&nbsp;The author accepts no responsibility to any who ignore this disclaimer.&nbsp;&nbsp;This work is free to share, in whole or in part, unaltered and with proper credit.&nbsp;&nbsp;Enjoy! -Valdisfoxy July 2016</em> <br /><br /><div class='align_center'><span class='font_title'>Chapter 2 &ndash; Movie Night</span></div><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Hey there, tighty whities,&rdquo; smiled Shadow as he walked past the living room couch and patted Tails&#039; head.&nbsp;&nbsp;The hedgehog was himself clad in sheer black boxer briefs with crimson banding that complimented his own hues.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;They&#039;re not white,&rdquo; said the puzzled fox, sitting cross-legged on the couch with a stack of videos.&nbsp;&nbsp;He reared up slightly and showed his briefs to Shadow.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;They&#039;re supposed to be sky blue, but I guess they faded.&nbsp;&nbsp;I wear these a lot.&nbsp;&nbsp;The waistband is still blue, see?&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;It&rsquo;s just a saying, no need to get technical,&rdquo; snickered Shadow.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;They suit you, they&rsquo;re cute.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;With hand on hip, he presented himself for the young fox&#039;s review.&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;How about mine?&nbsp;&nbsp;I trust these are acceptable?&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Wow, those are nice!&rdquo; chimed Tails.&nbsp;&nbsp;Clad only in briefs and socks, the fox boy curled his toes excitedly.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;You see, me, Sonic and Knux unanimously voted underwear to be the official uniform of guys&#039; movie night.&nbsp;&nbsp;And guys&#039; gamer night.&nbsp;&nbsp;You&#039;re in.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow cocked an eye.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I&rsquo;m surprised you three don&rsquo;t have a totally-not-gay wrestling night, too.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;It&rsquo;s just called wrestling night, if you <em>must </em>know,&rdquo; corrected Tails indignantly.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;The dish is still messed up from the storm, so we can&rsquo;t stream anything.&nbsp;&nbsp;I&rsquo;ll fix it tomorrow.&nbsp;&nbsp;But I found these oldies the hall closet, some look pretty good.&nbsp;&nbsp;Wanna see?&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails started to carefully hoist the teetering stack for Shadow&#039;s inspection.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Hold that thought,&rdquo; said Shadow, stepping towards the kitchen.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I&#039;ll definitely need coffee for this, it&rsquo;s been steeping long enough.&nbsp;&nbsp;Did you want some, or anything else while I&rsquo;m up?&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;No thank you,&rdquo; smiled Tails, putting the videos off to the side.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;My tongue is still kinda burning from dinner, I don&rsquo;t want anything hot.&nbsp;&nbsp;That was really good, by the way.&nbsp;&nbsp;What was it called again?&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow smiled, pushing down the plunger on the coffee press.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Spicy chicken spinach peanut curry with roasted peppers.&nbsp;&nbsp;Over lentils and saffron rice.&nbsp;&nbsp;I&rsquo;ll teach you some others this week.&nbsp;&nbsp;Thank you for dicing vegetables and measuring and washing up, by the way.&nbsp;&nbsp;Your help made it go so much faster.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;The pleasure&rsquo;s all mine, Shad.&nbsp;&nbsp;Pretty hot dish though,&rdquo; chuckled Tails, wiping a bead of sweat from his brow.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I might not use as much curry next time, Sonic can&rsquo;t handle anything spicier than a chili dog.&nbsp;&nbsp;If he overdoes hot peppers he has to drink a ton of milk and&hellip; has problems all night.&nbsp;&nbsp;Oh, that reminds me, Knux said I could try one of his import beers.&nbsp;&nbsp;Could you please bring me one?&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails squinted, reading the back of the topmost video box to himself.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Tenticaligula?&nbsp;&nbsp;I bet <em>that&#039;s</em> a scary monster.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;A beer?&rdquo; muttered Shadow to himself, opening the fridge and peering in.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Can&rsquo;t imagine he drinks beer.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Rummaging downwards through each shelf, Shadow&rsquo;s rump protruded from behind the open door.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Let&rsquo;s see&mdash;ugh, is that moldy broccoli?&nbsp;&nbsp;Disgusting.&nbsp;&nbsp;Oh, and soggy, half-eaten sandwiches, too.&nbsp;&nbsp;Lovely.&nbsp;&nbsp;I&rsquo;m going to have to clean this all out tomorrow.&nbsp;&nbsp;Now where did that that red lummox hide his&hellip; ah hah!&nbsp;&nbsp;There they are.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Peering out from behind the door, Shadow eyed Tails skeptically.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Tails, the only beer I see has a note that says &#039;DO NOT DRINK&#039;.&nbsp;&nbsp;With the initial &#039;K&#039; next to an angry frowny-face.&nbsp;&nbsp;Am I missing something?&nbsp;&nbsp;These seem rather off limits.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tails scratched his cheek with the corner of the box.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;No, those are it.&nbsp;&nbsp;Red Quill, I think it&#039;s called.&nbsp;&nbsp;That note&#039;s just for Sonic because he never asks first.&nbsp;&nbsp;Like when he ate all the cookies I bought from the Omochao Scouts.&nbsp;&nbsp;I asked Knux nicely, so he said I could have one.&nbsp;&nbsp;Don&#039;t tell Sonic, okay?&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow laughed as he pulled out a beer.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;You know what?&nbsp;&nbsp;I believe you.&nbsp;&nbsp;But if I find out you&#039;re lying, I&#039;m ratting you out the moment Knuckles gets back.&nbsp;&nbsp;I know what it&#039;s like to try and steal from an echidna and it&#039;s not pretty.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tails opened his mouth to say something but closed it again, listening to Shadow take glassware from the cupboards and pop the bottle cap.&nbsp;&nbsp;Sighing, he moved the videos to the coffee table as Shadow returned with beverages in hand.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Here we are.&nbsp;&nbsp;Black coffee for me, Red Quill for you.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Thanks,&rdquo; said Tails half-heartedly, looking down at his hands.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow eyed the downcast fox as he set down their drinks.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;What&#039;s the matter?&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tails&#039; voice was soft.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I wouldn&#039;t lie to you, Shad.&nbsp;&nbsp;Or steal.&nbsp;&nbsp;Friends don&#039;t do that.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;He looked innocently up at Shadow.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Why do you always think I&#039;m up to something?&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow sat next to Tails and leaned back, tugging the front of his boxers for a little extra room.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Up to something?&nbsp;&nbsp;Look, you&#039;re not old enough to drink, it&#039;s as simple as that.&nbsp;&nbsp;And that note doesn&#039;t exactly say help yourself, so forgive me if I think I&#039;m being outfoxed.&nbsp;&nbsp;No offense.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;None taken.&nbsp;&nbsp;But there&#039;s been other times too, ever since you got here.&nbsp;&nbsp;You ask me where I&#039;m going, who I&#039;m texting, always checking to see where I am.&nbsp;&nbsp;You didn&#039;t even let me sign for that package this morning.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;It looked suspicious,&rdquo; shrugged shadow, blowing on his coffee.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tails rolled his eyes.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;It was my package, I was expecting it.&nbsp;&nbsp;It even said&nbsp;&nbsp;&#039;fragile - airplane parts&#039; on the side.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow took a small sip before clinking his cup back on its saucer.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;You&#039;re forgetting my previous occupation, kiddo.&nbsp;&nbsp;Sure, it&#039;s airplane parts.&nbsp;&nbsp;Arriving at daybreak for some reason.&nbsp;&nbsp;But it would also be a great way to send a bomb, poison, or perhaps a nasty little robotic surprise.&nbsp;&nbsp;You and Sonic have left quite the trail of ruined, bitter enemies behind you, some of whom remain unaccounted for.&nbsp;&nbsp;I should know, I was almost one of them.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Sorry.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails looked back down at his folded hands. <br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Don&#039;t be.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow set down his coffee and patted Tails&#039; thigh reassuringly.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Getting shown a way out was the best thing that ever happened to me, but I&#039;m an exception.&nbsp;&nbsp;I do trust you, Tails.&nbsp;&nbsp;Sonic too, for the most part.&nbsp;&nbsp;But amnesia makes a person guarded, especially when you recall things you&#039;re not proud of.&nbsp;&nbsp;Don&rsquo;t take it personally.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tails tilted his head and smiled softly at Shadow.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I guess when Sonic says keep an eye on me, you really follow through, huh?&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow nodded.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I promise I&#039;ll try to relax.&nbsp;&nbsp;And not take it so... literally.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow retrieved his coffee and took a long, satisfied sip.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I shouldn&rsquo;t worry, I&rsquo;ve seen you hold your own in a fight.&nbsp;&nbsp;I&rsquo;m sure that Jet character won&rsquo;t forget his busted collarbone anytime soon.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t think I ever punched anyone that hard before,&rdquo; grinned Tails, rubbing his fist.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Hey, I&rsquo;ve been meaning to ask you.&nbsp;&nbsp;What did you and Sonic do with him after that?&nbsp;&nbsp;All I remember was auntie Rouge bandaging my hand and taking me with her.&nbsp;&nbsp;I asked her, but she told me not to worry about it.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;And you should heed her advice,&rdquo; said Shadow coolly, sipping his coffee.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Oh.&nbsp;&nbsp;Okay,&rdquo; smiled Tails, reaching for his beer.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;She&rsquo;s really cool, I hope she visits again soon.&nbsp;&nbsp;This is new for me too, I&#039;m kind of used to being ignored.&nbsp;&nbsp;Until something breaks, that is.&nbsp;&nbsp;It&#039;s why I like movie night.&nbsp;&nbsp;Just me and my closest friends, laughing and hanging out, no work or visitors or shop talk getting in the way.&nbsp;&nbsp;I hope you like it too, Shad.&rdquo; <br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;I like good movies,&rdquo; nodded Shadow, resting his coffee against his midriff and setting his feet on the table.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Emphasis on &#039;good&#039;.&nbsp;&nbsp;Those, however, look like they were fished from a dumpster.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tails giggled.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;You&rsquo;re almost right.&nbsp;&nbsp;Knux took these to the record store for credit, but they didn&#039;t want them.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;His blue eyes brightened as he held up his beer.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;To Shadow&mdash;movie night virgin no more!&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Deflowered and at your service, fox-butt.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow clinked his cup with Tails&#039; bottle and watched the fox chug a few brave gulps.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;So, what&#039;s the verdict on Red Quill?&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Wiping his mouth with the back of his hand, Tails licked his lips, seemingly pleased at first, but his face quickly soured as the aftertaste assaulted his youthful palate.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Eww,&rdquo; he winced, setting the half-emptied beer on the table and belting out a robust belch.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Oops!&nbsp;&nbsp;Excuse me.&nbsp;&nbsp;It&#039;s really bitter at the end.&nbsp;&nbsp;Like pee, or maybe battery acid?&nbsp;&nbsp;I don&#039;t like it.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow laughed, nearly spilling coffee on himself as he quickly pulled his feet from the table and set down the cup.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Like pee or maybe battery acid!&nbsp;&nbsp;Not exactly a stellar review.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow wiped a tear from the corner of his eye.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Come now, it can&#039;t be <em>that </em>bad.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Reaching over, he slowly polished off the beer.&nbsp;&nbsp;Pondering the flavor thoughtfully for a moment, Shadow winced as well, his ears flattening as he set down the bottle.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Actually, that&#039;s a fair assessment.&nbsp;&nbsp;Dreadful.&nbsp;&nbsp;I&#039;ll dig up a decent bottle of wine for us tomorrow, perhaps with dinner.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;I&#039;d like that,&rdquo; smiled Tails, hopping down and running to the kitchen before returning with a can of soda and cracking it open.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;What should we watch first?&nbsp;&nbsp;How about that top one, <em>Naughty Ninjas?</em> Tails leaned against Shadow&#039;s arm as they peered at the back cover.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Wow.&nbsp;&nbsp;For ninjas, they sure don&#039;t wear much clothing.&nbsp;&nbsp;Who&#039;s that guy?&nbsp;&nbsp;Is he the villain?&nbsp;&nbsp;The girl ninjas are doing the funny kiss on--&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Uh, we&#039;re not watching this,&rdquo; stammered Shadow, quickly shoving the video to the bottom of the stack and inspecting the others.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Let&#039;s see.&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Terms of Enrearment</em>... no.&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>My Little Horses Magical Rappin&#039; Christmas Adventure</em>... good lord, no.&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Inspector Shadow</em>...&nbsp;&nbsp;possibly.&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Turbo the Mole-Rat</em>...&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tails squinted at the box.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Turbo the what?&rdquo; <br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;It&#039;s animated.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow read the back cover.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Meet Turbo, the fastest Mole-Rat around!&nbsp;&nbsp;Together with his trusty fennec sidekick Ears and their allies the Patriot Pals, Turbo leads a revolt against Professor Von Eggplant, a dictator bent on stealing the Mayhem Moonstones for his ultimate weapon!&nbsp;&nbsp;Will Eggplant succeed?&nbsp;&nbsp;Or will Turbo and his friends, something something, teamwork...&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow turned helplessly to Tails.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;That sounds retarded,&rdquo; said Tails flatly.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Agreed.&nbsp;&nbsp;Moving on.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow held up the next box.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;<em>Space Cop</em>.&nbsp;&nbsp;He&#039;s a cop.&nbsp;&nbsp;A cop from the future of space.&nbsp;&nbsp;Who travels back to the present and teams up with a cop who was frozen in the past but then thawed in the future, which is now present.&nbsp;&nbsp;Except a few years later.&nbsp;&nbsp;Together, they fight evil aliens.&nbsp;&nbsp;Rated B for BLOOD.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow beamed.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;That&#039;s not really how time travel works, but I do like his GUN.&nbsp;&nbsp;Nice and big.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Blood &#039;n guns,&rdquo; chuckled Tails.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Shadow approves!&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Load that sucker up.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails did as bidden and excitedly took his seat next to Shadow.&nbsp;&nbsp;As the opening credits unfolded to explosions and murder, the fox looked up admiringly at Shadow and leaned against him gently, the pair smiling as they sipped their beverages.&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow sighed contentedly and snugged Tails by the shoulder.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Ahh.&nbsp;&nbsp;This isn&#039;t so bad.&rdquo;<br /><br /><em><span class='font_title'>Some bad movies later...</span></em><br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;This is horrible,&rdquo; groaned Shadow, his smile and enthusiasm lost in the sands of time. His resolve was corroded nearly to nil.&nbsp;&nbsp;His eyes dry and slightly bloodshot, the hedgehog&#039;s stiff and sore muscles cried for relief.&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>My Little Horses Magical Rappin&#039; Christmas Adventure</em> lay snapped in pieces nearby on the floor.&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Tenticaligula, Vampires vs. Zombies&mdash;The Movie</em> and <em>Wombatman vs. Supermandrill</em> had suffered similar fates.&nbsp;&nbsp;Several emptied coffee cups and an additional bottle or two of Red Quill had made things passable earlier in the evening, but their effects had long since worn off, leaving a pasty exhaustion in their wake.&nbsp;&nbsp;Worse, an unfazed Tails was handily defeating Shadow in battle.&nbsp;&nbsp;Not even a desperate best-of-three maneuver could save the flagging hedgehog, who frowned as the fox held up his scissors-hand and &ldquo;cut&rdquo; Shadow&#039;s paper.&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;Ha!&nbsp;&nbsp;I win again, Shad!&nbsp;&nbsp;Next up is <em>Vampires vs. Zombies 2&mdash;The Headsplosioning.&rdquo;</em>&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails happily grabbed the box and knelt before the player to swap videos.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;There&#039;s a sequel?&rdquo; Shadow&#039;s head flopped back against the cushions in defeat.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Pardon me while I quietly pray for my own death.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;What&#039;s the matter, Shad?&rdquo; grinned Tails wryly, &ldquo;I thought you liked violence.&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Space Cop</em> was pretty fun.&nbsp;&nbsp;And look at the floor!&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails nodded at the broken videos.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;I do.&nbsp;&nbsp;But these movies... so very, very awful.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow tiredly rubbed his face.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;They deserved it.&nbsp;&nbsp;The fact they&rsquo;ve drained me and damaged my brain is the only reason I haven&rsquo;t taken the pieces outside and burned them.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Well, no loss I guess,&rdquo; giggled Tails.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;We did try to get rid of them.&nbsp;&nbsp;At least now I know one of your secret weaknesses.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;That terrible movies negate my energy?&nbsp;&nbsp;They&rsquo;re like the opposite of chaos emeralds.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow yawned and eyed the couch&rsquo;s armrest.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I agree, the first two titles were fine.&nbsp;&nbsp;But the rest?&nbsp;&nbsp;I honestly don&rsquo;t understand how anyone can purposefully sit down and watch garbage.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;That&rsquo;s part of movie night,&rdquo; smiled Tails, standing back up.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;You go in cold.&nbsp;&nbsp;You never know what you&rsquo;re going to get, and sometimes it&#039;s amazing.&nbsp;&nbsp;But it&rsquo;s also a gamble and we just lost.&nbsp;&nbsp;But so what?&nbsp;&nbsp;It&rsquo;s not like we paid money to see these.&nbsp;&nbsp;Let me see if this next one is any good, then we can shut it off and go to bed, I promise.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow was unmoved.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;The fact you&#039;re curious whether a movie called <em>Vampires vs. Zombies 2&mdash;The Headsplosioning</em> might be good,&rdquo; said Shadow, making air quotes, &ldquo;proves you&#039;re either too young to have taste yet or you&#039;re the world&rsquo;s greatest optimist.&nbsp;&nbsp;I predict it will be atrocious.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Aww, c&rsquo;mon Shad,&rdquo; pleaded Tails, flashing his big blue eyes.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Just give it a shot.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow chuckled.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I left my gun at home.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;That&rsquo;s NOT what I meant,&rdquo; huffed the fox.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Fine, fine, let&rsquo;s give it spin,&rdquo; sighed Shadow.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;But if I am to be tortured again, I demand to be comfortable.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow flopped back into the couch and sighed deeply, stretching his athletic limbs one by one.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I don&#039;t know why I didn&#039;t think of this earlier,&rdquo; he yawned, curling his toes.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tails padded back to the couch and frowned.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Hey, there&#039;s no room for me now.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Of course there is,&rdquo; smiled Shadow softly, scooting his head and shoulders back against the padded armrest and patting his stomach.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Climb aboard.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Oh,&rdquo; blushed tails, placing a finger on his lower lip and looking over Shadow&#039;s body.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;You want me to...&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails gingerly climbed on the edge of the cushions, looking for a spot to lay next to the hedgehog or perhaps sit between his slightly parted legs.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Maybe I&#039;ll just sit on the floor.&nbsp;&nbsp;I don&#039;t want to get you too warm.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow grinned, glimpsing the tug-of-war between shyness and curiosity on the fox&#039;s face.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Your butt&rsquo;s mine now, remember?&nbsp;&nbsp;And I don&rsquo;t want it in the floor.&nbsp;&nbsp;I insist.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow effortlessly hoisted the surprised fox face-to-face atop himself, the hedgehog&#039;s white chest ruff making for an inviting if impromptu pillow.&nbsp;&nbsp;Taking a deep, relaxing breath, Shadow hugged the fox and began to massage the boy&#039;s lower back and hips.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;There.&nbsp;&nbsp;Now I have a living shield to protect me from bad movies.&nbsp;&nbsp;Comfy?&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;This works,&rdquo; grinned Tails, his cheeks flushed pink.&nbsp;&nbsp;As he lay draped atop the warm, fit hedgehog, the young fox slowly began to melt under Shadow&rsquo;s attentive, exploring hands.&nbsp;&nbsp;He curled his arms softly against Shadow&#039;s sides as both eyed the screen, which showed a montage of stylishly dressed kickboxing vampires battling the titular zombies, the latter suffering exploded heads aplenty.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Amused by the mayhem, Shadow let his fingers methodically massage and work their way up Tails&rsquo; spine.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Wow, the vamps are just going for it, eh?&nbsp;&nbsp;They might win me over this time.&nbsp;&nbsp;Ooo.&nbsp;&nbsp;Yeah!&nbsp;&nbsp;Good spray pattern on that one.&nbsp;&nbsp;Yesss!&nbsp;&nbsp;Kick that fucker&rsquo;s head in!&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow winced, stopping the massage for a moment.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I mean, kick that sucker&rsquo;s head in&hellip;&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;He shrugged apologetically at Tails, who simply giggled and patted the hedgehog&rsquo;s side.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Can&#039;t go wrong with exploding heads,&rdquo; grinned Tails.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;You must like it, I can hear your heart speeding up through your chest.&rdquo; <br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow chuckled and stroked Tails&#039; soft headfur.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;At least that proves I still have one.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;I&rsquo;m just glad you&rsquo;re into it,&rdquo; smiled Tails, shifting his slender hips.&nbsp;&nbsp;He noticed his bulge was pressed, rather snugly, against Shadow&#039;s.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Um, Shad?&nbsp;&nbsp;I&#039;m... I&#039;m not squishing you, am I?&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;I&#039;d call it more snuggling than squishing,&rdquo; smiled Shadow.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;And I rather like it.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow stressed the point by playfully thrusting his hips a couple of times, intentionally prodding his considerable slumbering maleness into the fox&rsquo;s.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Does it bother you?&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails gave Shadow a mischievous glance and pressed his bulge right back into the hedgehog&rsquo;s.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I&rsquo;ll take that as a no.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails lay his soft cheek against Shadow&rsquo;s chest as the pair wordlessly watched the rest of the first half.&nbsp;&nbsp;Able to recline and recover from his earlier torment, Shadow gently rubbed Tails&#039; neck, shoulder blades, spine, lower back, hips and the top of his buttocks all in turn, massaging more firmly wherever he found a particularly tense spot.&nbsp;&nbsp;Not much was said, nor was there need, until the movie&rsquo;s initial promise evaporated, leaving behind a turgid, boring soap opera.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;A guy your age should not have this much muscle tension,&rdquo; whispered Shadow into Tails&#039; ear.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;You work too hard, always hunkered down over some gadget or other.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;I know,&rdquo; slurred Tails softly, his face a picture of bliss, eyelids drooping contentedly.&nbsp;&nbsp;He dreamily rubbed his socks against Shadow&#039;s legs.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Sonic gives good back rubs too, it&#039;s one of my favorite things.&nbsp;&nbsp;Ooo&hellip;&nbsp;&nbsp;right there.&nbsp;&nbsp;Sonic likes foot rubs too, especially&mdash;ah!&mdash;if you want to get him to&mdash;ungh!&nbsp;&nbsp;Do stuff for you.&nbsp;&nbsp;Mmmff...&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Duly noted,&rdquo; grinned Shadow.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;And I hope he&#039;s willing to share.&nbsp;&nbsp;He texted while you were in the shower, by the way.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Yeah, I got one too,&rdquo; grunted Tails, his body shifting as Shadow massaged over his kidneys.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Hundred degrees out, Knux missed his opening gig and Amy&rsquo;s already bumming cash off him.&nbsp;&nbsp;Says he misses us.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;As well he should, the big blue dope.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow&#039;s brow furrowed as he pressed his fingers into the tight muscles around the base of the fox&#039;s twin tails.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;These have to be sore, they&#039;re practically knots.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Nnnnughh!&rdquo; moaned the fox, nearly drooling as Shadow&#039;s powerful fingers went to work.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;It&#039;s from yesterday&mdash;ah!&nbsp;&nbsp;Ohh... right there.&nbsp;&nbsp;I flew way longer than I&mdash;uhh!!&mdash;I should have.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails began to rub Shadow&#039;s sides and shoulders appreciatively.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;At least you&mdash;nnnggff!&mdash;take care of me.&nbsp;&nbsp;Maybe I&mdash;oof&mdash;should lose more often.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;You&#039;ve a nice bod, foxy. I&#039;d say we both won.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Blissfully ignoring the movie, Shadow eased off Tails&#039; more tender spots and resumed gently caressing his back and nape.&nbsp;&nbsp;His fingertips left goose pimples and soft, boyish moans in their wake, stroking in slow, deliberate circles against the soft fur and delicate skin.&nbsp;&nbsp;The fox boy&#039;s scent was subtle, clean and sweet.&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow drank it in, inhaling deeply as he nuzzled into the base of his warm, velvety ear.&nbsp;&nbsp;The fox enchanted.&nbsp;&nbsp;So beautiful.&nbsp;&nbsp;So close.&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow wanted more, but felt a tinge of nerves.&nbsp;&nbsp;Would the boy allow it?&nbsp;&nbsp;Would Sonic?&nbsp;&nbsp;Would he even know?&nbsp;&nbsp;Was it right to even be asking?&nbsp;&nbsp;So tempting...&nbsp;&nbsp;let the scholars debate.&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow took a deep breath.&nbsp;&nbsp;Leaning in, he opened his mouth and gently seized the outer third of Tails&#039; ear, tenderly nibbling it.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tails let out a small gasp and tensed momentarily, but relaxed again as Shadow&#039;s lips explored and savored the sensitive appendage.&nbsp;&nbsp;Finding no resistance of note, Shadow nibbled and kissed more freely, his lips making their way to the base of Tails&#039; ear, then his soft cheek, then lower still to his tender neck.&nbsp;&nbsp;The hedgehog&#039;s nibbly, exploring muzzle made the fox&#039;s entire body tingle, like little sheets of stars fanning out to his belly and toes.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails brought his hands up and caressed the hedgehog&#039;s furry chest in kind, slowly rubbing his soft cheek against the ruff and enjoying his friend&#039;s clean, masculine scent.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Mmm...&nbsp;&nbsp;that feels really good...&rdquo; he whispered dreamily, planting small, discreet kisses on the hedgehog&#039;s chest.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails felt his foxhood begin to stir within his briefs, the bulge hardening right against Shadow&#039;s, which mirrored the response.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails&#039; throat grew dry and tight; he was becoming lightheaded.&nbsp;&nbsp;Timidly he met Shadow&#039;s confident gaze, the hedgehog&#039;s eyes glowing like little red lanterns of want.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I...&nbsp;&nbsp;I don&#039;t care about the movie anymore, Shad,&rdquo; said Tails nervously.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;You want do something else?&nbsp;&nbsp;Maybe... with me?&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Nearly croaking the last word, Tails swallowed hard.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Something else?&rdquo; grinned Shadow, his voice soft and deep.&nbsp;&nbsp;He caressed down the length of the boy&#039;s soft, slender back and gave the fox&#039;s briefs-clad bubble butt a firm squeeze.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I can think of quite a few things I&#039;d like to do with you.&nbsp;&nbsp;Wonderful, exciting things.&nbsp;&nbsp;I&#039;d like to teach you, if you&#039;ll let me.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails nodded, both his hands taking one of Shadow&#039;s and caressing it needfully.&nbsp;&nbsp;With a playful smirk, Shadow reached over and mashed the remote&#039;s OFF button with his free hand, killing off the now flaccid movie.&nbsp;&nbsp;Beyond the soft shuffle of their bodies pressing together, all the pair could hear was a chorus of crickets outside and the distant roll of the ocean.&nbsp;&nbsp;Cradling Tails&#039; soft cheek, Shadow kissed him sweetly on the lips, bringing forth an appreciative moan from the fox.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Understand, though.&nbsp;&nbsp;You must trust me and you must talk with me.&nbsp;&nbsp;Don&#039;t bottle anything up.&nbsp;&nbsp;Good partners understand this.&nbsp;&nbsp;We will <em>only </em>go as far as you are comfortable with.&nbsp;&nbsp;If you stay stop, we stop.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;But I don&#039;t want to stop,&rdquo; whispered Tails, kissing across Shadow&#039;s hand and fingers, &ldquo;I want to keep going, Shad.&nbsp;&nbsp;Teach me...&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow took Tails&#039; hand and kissed it.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Just follow my lead.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Leaning up slightly against the armrest, Shadow planted a full, firm kiss on Tails&#039; tender lips, one hand sliding down to cup and squeeze the fox boy&#039;s rump as the other slowly fondled his chest, where he soon found a small but very erect nipple.&nbsp;&nbsp;Gently rolling the fox&#039;s pink nub between thumb and forefinger, Shadow was rewarded with a loud moan that punctuated their kiss.&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow became more insistent, his lips pressing Tails&#039; mouth open as the softly trembling fox closed his eyes.&nbsp;&nbsp;A lustful whimper escaped Tails&#039; mouth as Shadow slipped in his tongue.&nbsp;&nbsp;Snaking in, the latter quickly found its quarry, curling and coiling wetly around Tails&#039; tongue, the hedgehog savoring the wet, faintly spicy, sugar-tinged taste of the boy&#039;s mouth.&nbsp;&nbsp;Pressing his growing erection reflexively against Shadow&#039;s, Tails suckled back against the hedgehog&#039;s commanding tongue, awkwardly at first, but as he too became more aroused, the fox was soon pushing his tongue into Shadow&#039;s mouth, the pair exchanging saliva and breath alike.&nbsp;&nbsp;Slipping his hand under Tails&#039; tails and into his briefs, Shadow tickled along the fox&#039;s fuzzy crease before pressing in and petting the tender pink folds around his foxhole.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails moaned loudly again deep into Shadow&#039;s mouth, his hot breath stolen away as quickly as he exhaled it. Tails&#039; trapped erection now pressed and prodded painfully into Shadow&#039;s.&nbsp;&nbsp;The fox&#039;s repeated boyish moans mingled with the hedgehog&#039;s low, contented rumble.&nbsp;&nbsp;When he finally broke the kiss, Tails did so reluctantly.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;W-wait,&rdquo; panted Tails, a strand of saliva connecting his lower lip to Shadow&#039;s.&nbsp;&nbsp;As if doing a pushup, the fox reared up and peeked down between their bodies to where their bulges pressed.&nbsp;&nbsp;Both cocks were now fully erect, straining against their respective confines and sporting impressive wet spots.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I&#039;m gonna shoot in my undies if we keep going like that.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Then let&#039;s take them off,&rdquo; whispered Shadow, tugging Tails&#039; briefs downward.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Let Shadow see you.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Rearing up, Tails straddled Shadow&#039;s thighs, his briefs tenting impressively as he rubbed his concealed erection against Shadow&#039;s.&nbsp;&nbsp;The hedgehog looked on, smiling and patiently caressing the boy&#039;s soft thighs.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;You&#039;re a naughtier fox than I surmised.&nbsp;&nbsp;Yes...&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>rub </em>that hot foxy dick with mine.&nbsp;&nbsp;See?&nbsp;&nbsp;They like each other.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Blushing brightly, Tails hooked his thumbs into his waistband and gingerly slipped his briefs down until his curved, rock-hard cock sprang up and slapped his soft, white belly. Once freed, Tails tossed his briefs to the floor.&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow gently cupped and caressed the fox&#039;s silky white orbs and the impossibly soft inner thigh fur surrounding them.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Very, very nice.&nbsp;&nbsp;Sonic&#039;s right, it <em>is </em>a good size.&rdquo; <br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Thank you,&rdquo; blushed Tails gratefully, curling his arms cutely against his chest as he stuck out his hips and watched Shadow fondle him for a few moments.&nbsp;&nbsp;Eyeing the hedgehog&#039;s impressive bulge, Tails reached for the waistband of Shadow&#039;s boxer briefs.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Now let&#039;s get yours out.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow grinned mischievously as he and Tails both pulled down his boxers, freeing the hedgehog&#039;s long, thick cock, which rose to attention like a steel crane.&nbsp;&nbsp;Mouth agape, Tails&#039; eyes widened at the sight.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Whoa... it&#039;s big!&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tilting his head, Shadow gently tugged and fondled the fox&#039;s jutting cock.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;And it&#039;s all for you, foxy.&nbsp;&nbsp;Careful, though.&nbsp;&nbsp;It takes some training to shoot big guns properly.&nbsp;&nbsp;But I suspect you&#039;re up to the task.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Kneeling over one of Shadow&#039;s legs, Tails leaned in and inhaled the clean, masculine, almost spicy scent rising from Shadow&#039;s shaft, the fox rubbing the hedgehog&#039;s silky thigh fur on either side.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;May I please touch it?&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;So polite,&rdquo; chuckled Shadow.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Yes, you may touch.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tails tentatively gripped Shadow&#039;s cock just above the hilt.&nbsp;&nbsp;Handsomely shaped with a nearly intact foreskin, it felt warm, spongy and muscular, too thick at its base for Tails&#039; fingers and thumb to meet.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;So warm...&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails could feel it throb against his hand.&nbsp;&nbsp;Like its owner, Shadow&rsquo;s cock was dusky with lighter area below the head, symmetrical, upright and handsome.&nbsp;&nbsp;A large, attractive pair of obsidian orbs completed the picture.&nbsp;&nbsp;Transfixed, the curious fox cupped Shadow&#039;s hefty balls in one hand, rolling them slightly as he started to stroke Shadow&rsquo;s pole with the other.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails&rsquo; breathing grew heavy.&nbsp;&nbsp;He licked his lips, watching Shadow&rsquo;s satiny foreskin slide up and down over the attractive glans, a silky pearl of precum beading at the tip.&nbsp;&nbsp;The spicy, sweet scent drew him closer.&nbsp;&nbsp;Something was urging him on.&nbsp;&nbsp;He liked what he saw; he craved it.&nbsp;&nbsp;Swallowing the excess saliva that refused to abate, Tails&rsquo; own cock pressed hotly into the hedgehog&rsquo;s thigh as he held Shadow&#039;s erection still for a moment and licked his lips.&nbsp;&nbsp;The fire-eyed hedgehog watched intently.&nbsp;&nbsp;Trembling softly with anticipation, Tails leaned in and opened his mouth, his pink tongue and wet lips lowering onto Shadow&#039;s cock head.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Ah ah,&rdquo; Shadow slipped his hand under Tails&#039; chin and caressed it.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;That&rsquo;s a bit more than touch.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;His mouth closing slightly, Tails blinked and looked up at Shadow as if he had done something wrong.&nbsp;&nbsp;The hedgehog smiled reassuringly.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Be patient, foxy.&nbsp;&nbsp;As much as I want that&mdash;and believe me, I do&mdash;that&#039;s a lesson all its own.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tomorrow perhaps.&nbsp;&nbsp;Right now, I need you to finish lesson one.&nbsp;&nbsp;So bring those foxy lips back up here.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Y-yes, Shadow,&rdquo; smiled Tails bashfully, still blushing as he reared up and gingerly lay himself back atop the hedgehog, making sure their erections mirrored one another.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails curled his soft, boyish arms around Shadow&#039;s broad shoulders as their warm, throbbing lengths pressed together.&nbsp;&nbsp;They kissed once more, now with gusto, the fox boy&#039;s tongue and muffled, needful moans soon filling Shadow&#039;s appreciative mouth.&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow gave slow, deliberate thrusts, his long, sinewy, leaking rod rubbing the whole of Tails&rsquo; shorter length as their slickened heads and frenula swirled and swiped wetly together, edging them both relentlessly closer to climax.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails panted into Shadow&#039;s mouth, suckling, licking, craving release, male to male, cock to engorged cock, their balls steadily tightening as they brushed and bumped together.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails&rsquo; caressing, groping hands stumbled across Shadow&rsquo;s nipples as they kissed, the fox boy rolling them in his nimble fingers.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Fffuck yesssss,&rdquo; hissed the hedgehog, his forehead beading with sweat as an especially generous strand of pre slipped from his slit.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails tugged downward on Shadow&#039;s nipples, pinching hard as the pair now frotted as fast as their hips would allow.&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow&#039;s fiery eyes widened at the unexpected provocation.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Ohh, ffffffuuuuck!&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Hrrrrr...</em>&rdquo; Shadow&#039;s head flopped back against the armrest, tossing side to side as his own large, sweaty orbs tightened precipitously.&nbsp;&nbsp;He thrust even harder up into the fox&#039;s cock, gnashing his teeth to forestall orgasm, but it was of little use.&nbsp;&nbsp;The obsidian hedgehog growled.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Not&hellip; fair, <em>hero</em>.&nbsp;&nbsp;Ohhh, you little orange cockhound...&nbsp;&nbsp;roll daddy&#039;s nips&hellip; fuck my cock&hellip;&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Not one to go down so easily, Shadow reached up and gave Tails the same treatment, flicking and rolling the boy&#039;s hard, pink nipples under his cottony chest fluff.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;NNNnngghh!!&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails huffed hotly, his face drawing into a reddened, open-mouthed mask of impending, desperately needed release.&nbsp;&nbsp;His toes began to curl and uncurl, his tails partly aloft and flicking wildly.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails&rsquo; thrusts suddenly grew short and spastic, almost mechanical.&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Sh&mdash;Shadow!!&rdquo; he cried helplessly, &ldquo;I&#039;m gonna COOOOOME!&rdquo; <br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;That&rsquo;s it,&rdquo; hissed Shadow fitfully.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;<em>Cum</em> for me, foxy.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Rearing up, Shadow plunged the pair back into a wet, ecstatic kiss.&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow could feel Tails&#039; cock throb and spasm against his own as&nbsp;&nbsp;the fox boy burst like a small floodgate, shooting spurt after spurt of hot, semi clear semen over their throbbing cock heads and injecting itself deep between their bellies.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails&#039; whole body shook as his muffled cries of pleasure filled Shadow&#039;s mouth.&nbsp;&nbsp;The sudden, pulsing warmth and wetness and the angelic beauty of the fox boy&#039;s body and face in their orgasmic state pitched Shadow headlong into explosive climax, his face contorted and red.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Hrrrfff!!&nbsp;&nbsp;HRRRRFFF!!!&nbsp;&nbsp;HHRRRRGGH!!!!&nbsp;&nbsp;HRRRRRGGHH!!!!&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp;The force of Shadow&rsquo;s ejaculation sent gobs of hot, white cum far between their bodies, leaking down both sides and soaking their torsos.&nbsp;&nbsp;Even as the pair slowly broke the kiss to pant for air, it took some time for Shadow&#039;s orgasm to subside before they collapsed against one another.&nbsp;&nbsp;The fox and hedgehog opened their eyes and nuzzled one another tenderly as the last of their combined fluids leaked out warmly between them.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Lesson one... success,&rdquo; panted Shadow, sliding his hands down to Tails&#039; buttocks and squeezing them playfully.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;With bonus points for volume.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Wow... I&#039;ve never done <em>any</em>thing like that before,&rdquo; huffed Tails, the fox wet, winded and flushed.&nbsp;&nbsp;Rearing up on wobbly arms and shaky knees, Tails grinned down at Shadow as they peeked at the mess between their bellies, their noses immediately filled with the scent of their combined seed, which soaked them through and through.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;You made lots, I felt it,&rdquo; giggled Tails, taking a bit of cum from Shadow&#039;s belly on his a fingertip and tasting it.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;It&#039;s kinda sweet.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;It should be, coming from you,&rdquo; smiled Shadow, stroking Tails&rsquo; hips and cheeks.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;It&rsquo;s all those sweets you sneak into your shop.&nbsp;&nbsp;You&rsquo;ve got me started on them now, too.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Sitting back to straddle Shadow&#039;s thighs, Tails titled his head an squeezed their soaked, slowly softening cocks together.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I want to do that again, Shad!&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;We shall,&rdquo; nodded Shadow, looking over Tails&rsquo; damp body, &ldquo;There are other lessons ahead, so long as you want them.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;I want!&rdquo; grinned the fox boy, stroking their members together in one hand, &ldquo;But maybe next time, you could... uh...&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Giddy with afterglow, Tails suddenly looked away, smiling shyly.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Well, I kind of want you to... to try...&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Just spit it out,&rdquo; chuckled Shadow tiredly.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Like I said, talk to me.&nbsp;&nbsp;What would make you happy?&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tails bit his lower lip and looked down.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Maybe next time I could be like... the girl?&nbsp;&nbsp;With you inside me, doing my butt.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails blinked worriedly, unsure how the hedgehog might take the graphic request.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;A true fox,&rdquo; chuckled Shadow softly, taking Tails&#039; damp hand off their spent cocks and kissing it.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I need to think about it first.&nbsp;&nbsp;What you&rsquo;re asking for is very intimate, and there&rsquo;s a lesson or two I&rsquo;d prefer to give you first.&nbsp;&nbsp;Give me a little time.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails nodded, relaxing a bit.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Now come on, mister sticky.&nbsp;&nbsp;Let&#039;s hit the shower before we fall asleep or we&#039;ll wake up cemented together.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Spent as they were, neither Shadow nor Tails would recall much of the shower, though someone casually sharing the bathroom would have seen them happily chatting and washing one another behind the steamy glass, enjoying the intimate company and the natural high of a powerful afterglow.&nbsp;&nbsp;Apart from Shadow helping to lather and rinse both of the fox&#039;s tails, always a chore, the time passed quickly, with only a single, sweet kiss at the shower&#039;s end hinting at the evening&rsquo;s earlier events.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow plopped against the stack of pillows on the master bed, laying his hand on his belly and sighing in deep relief.&nbsp;&nbsp;The cool, fluffy bed was heaven itself.&nbsp;&nbsp;He smiled over at the cute, freshly toweled fox boy, the pair luxuriating in the soothing linen embrace as Tails continued their conversation.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;It just seems like every time I even get close to a girl, something awful happens.&nbsp;&nbsp;Someone butts in, or she already has a boyfriend, or a girlfriend, or she doesn&#039;t care about anything I do.&nbsp;&nbsp;And when I do get a date, it&#039;s usually just a matter of time before she finds out that--that--&quot;\t<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;That you both like dicks?&rdquo; snickered Shadow tiredly.&nbsp;&nbsp;His face scrunching, Tails punched Shadow&#039;s bicep.&nbsp;&nbsp;Hard.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Ouch!&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;The surprised hedgehog laughed, playfully turning aside and shielding himself with his forearms as the slightly damp fox lunged.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Takes one to know one, <em>faker!&quot;</em> sneered Tails, the fox grinning and landing a few glancing blows on Shadow&#039;s arms and shoulders.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails giggled, grabbing a pillow and thrashing Shadow with the business end.&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;Maybe I do, but you don&#039;t have to be a jerk about it.&nbsp;&nbsp;I still wanna know about girls!&quot;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;I&#039;m sorry, I couldn&#039;t help myself.&nbsp;&nbsp;Truce, truce!&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;laughed Shadow, catching Tails&#039; arms and kissing each clenched fist in turn.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I yield.&nbsp;&nbsp;That was very crude of me.&nbsp;&nbsp;I apologize.&nbsp;&nbsp;Stand down, fox-butt.&quot;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;All right,&rdquo; snickered Tails, setting the pillow down and flopping back down next to Shadow.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;But only because you groveled.&nbsp;&nbsp;And really know how to kiss.&nbsp;&nbsp;What I was gonna say is, they always find out I&#039;m with Sonic.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails made a girly voice.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Oh, I see!&nbsp;&nbsp;You must be the little sidekick, then.&nbsp;&nbsp;What&#039;s Sonic like?&nbsp;&nbsp;Is he dating right now?&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails blew a wet raspberry with his lips.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;The last girl I dated was really cool, an artist and a gamer.&nbsp;&nbsp;I really, really liked her.&nbsp;&nbsp;But when she finally came over and met Sonic, she ask me if I was &#039;the bottom&#039; and stopped calling me.&nbsp;&nbsp;I told Knux about it and he laughed so hard he almost peed himself.&nbsp;&nbsp;I STILL don&#039;t know what I did wrong.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shadow chuckled, pulling Tails closer.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;You did nothing <em>wrong</em>, per se.&nbsp;&nbsp;She just might be on to something.&nbsp;&nbsp;Or you really weren&#039;t her type, and she just wanted an easy out.&quot;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;But what&#039;s being the bottom?&rdquo; asked Tails quizzically.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;That someone&#039;s not important?&nbsp;&nbsp;Like, the bottom of the barrel?&nbsp;&nbsp;That figures.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tails huffed and looked away.<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;It&#039;s not that at all,&rdquo; yawned Shadow, shaking his head.&nbsp;&nbsp;He squeezed Tails&#039; hand reassuringly.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Just know that it means a very sweet and wonderful kind of guy.&nbsp;&nbsp;One that guys like <em>me</em> love being with.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow kissed Tails sweetly on the lips and nose, then reached over to turn out the light before settling in at last.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Now, it&rsquo;s insanely late and I&rsquo;m fading like crazy.&nbsp;&nbsp;Let&rsquo;s get some sleep, hero.&rdquo;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Okay,&rdquo; yawned Tails, his eyes lidding heavily.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;G&#039;night, Shad.&nbsp;&nbsp;I really like being with you.&nbsp;&nbsp;You make me feel really good inside.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp;The fox snuggled close, his nose pressed into Shadow&#039;s.&nbsp;&nbsp;Curious how he might react, Tails reached over and gave Shadow a very private squeeze under the sheets.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I hope we play again soon.&quot;<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;What have I done?&rdquo; sighed Shadow, gently pulling Tails&#039; hand up from his crotch to his belly and squeezing it.&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;Soon, I promise.&nbsp;&nbsp;But until then, don&#039;t get any ideas, silly fox.&nbsp;&nbsp;Sweet dreams.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shadow exhaled blissfully and drifted to sleep, muttering a few more things, things about respect and consent and timing.&nbsp;&nbsp;Most of it was lost on the exhausted fox boy, his own mind racing towards vivid dreams about what he and Shadow might do next.&nbsp;&nbsp;The silly fox was very much getting ideas.<br /><br /></span>","pools_count":1,"title":"Ten Miles of Shadow Ch. 2 - Movie Night","deleted":"f","public":"t","mimetype":"application/msword","pagecount":"1","rating_id":"2","rating_name":"Adult","ratings":[{"content_tag_id":"4","name":"Sexual Themes","description":"Erotic imagery, sexual activity or arousal","rating_id":"2"}],"submission_type_id":"12","type_name":"Writing - Document","guest_block":"t","friends_only":"f","comments_count":"16","views":"962","sales_description":null,"forsale":"f","digitalsales":"f","printsales":"f","digital_price":""}
