It's a Friday and for many of them, their minds lay on other things. Most of them don't take it that seriously, except for the few who hone in on Academia. For the rest of them, their minds cared only for the weekend. It was only a matter of time before the bell rang. Every so often looking up from their tests to see that the time on the clock hadn't moved at all.\n\nDhruv was a young Bengal tiger boy who lived on the outskirts of New Delhi. At 9 years of age, he had high hopes of becoming a dancer on the silver screen of Bollywood. Dhruv was your typical boy who was rather active on the dance floor. His parents had afforded him dance lessons at a young age and the boy had taken to it like bees to a flower. Over the last few years, he had become quite adept at mastering the fine art of dance.\n\nDhruv was not the most studious of students. He had a small clique of friends who had flitted in and out of the hobby. None of them took it as seriously as he did. The only exception was Sajita who was the only girl he got along with despite her being a few years older. The two had grown rather close and had even become dance partners at the school where they practiced but had never transpired to anything outside of the hobby.\n\nThat weekend was the first time that was supposed to change. The Bengal cub had finally convinced his parents to let him have the girl over for a sleepover. He had been pushing them for some time now but had never made any progress. However, the Bengal boy's parents had made plans for the weekend and had hired the most strict babysitter they could find. A sitter they had used countless times in the past, who Dhruv knew took no nonsense.\n\nDhruv had been counting down the days until Friday and now it was only a matter of minutes before the close of the day was to come. The worksheet in front of him was uninteresting. Math was far from his favorite subject and he was in no mood to do it. Still, he knew better than to guess. He needed to get at least a passing grade or he'd never hear the end of it. So he put effort only into the first half before giving up and guessing the rest.\n\nJust as he finished the final problem, the bell rang and the kids crashed out of the room into the hall. Dhruv was much the same, leaving his paper behind on his desk and only taking his bag with him. He piled his way through the crowd, not caring who he ran into. Of course, being one of the smaller ones made that difficult. Still, being a strong boy he was able to maintain himself all the same.\n\nOnce he made his way out into the open, he had to wait for Sajita. The girl was an athletic cub who wasn't known to be the most assertive kid. While waiting he practiced handstands on the lawn, not caring if he knocked into someone or not. He was eventually stopped by a teacher who was on duty, who warned him not to do it again or he would end up with detention. \n\nHe began standing around idly, tiddling his hands as he looked around trying to occupy his boredom. It wasn't much longer before Sajita showed up. Like him, the girl was a big cat, except she was an albino leopard that lacked the traditional coloration of the species. She was a lanky girl who was tall for her age, much taller than the tiger himself. The older girl had recently had a growth spurt and much of her clothing poorly fit her.\n\n\"Ready to go to your place, Dhruv?\" The bigger girl asked nonchalantly as she approached him.\n\nThe Bengal cub nodded his head. \"Uh-huh. Come on…\" \n\nThe smaller cub tugged on the larger one, seemingly easily. The girl putting up no fight but tagging along all the same. The two joined hands and skipped along once she got tired of being dragged along. The trip to his place wasn't too far and the weather was good except for the occasional drip of rain that fell from the sky. As they got closer to the Bengal family home, it began to rain harder so they quickened their pace in hopes they wouldn't get as wet.\n\nFortunately, the rain tapered off a bit and once they arrived, they were only mildly damp. The Bengal cub noticed that his parent's car was already absent and that only a moped sat in the parking space, chained to itself. It seemed that the sitter had already arrived. The smaller cub led up to the door and let them both in.\n\n\"Here, let me get us a towel.\" He suggested before darting off and returning with one that they shared.\n\nThe sound of the door closing back shut was enough to alert the sitter who was sitting nearby in the living room. The older teen stood up from the lounging chair he had gotten comfortable in. The large dhole, who went by the name of Ishir, had a burgundy-colored coat that was rather short in length. Still, in college, the teen did what he could to make ends meet even if meant spending time with kids. It had been a while since the last time had visited this home and he wasn't sure he would remember him.\n\nThe sight of seeing him standing up made the leopard girl hesitate a second. Sure, she had never seen Ishir before but he was like nothing she'd ever seen before. His body was toned and he seemed to have taken up a gym routine. He was chewing on some gum rather loudly with some beat-up old clothes that hung tightly against his body, leaving very little to the imagination. Dhruv, having noticed her distraction, tapped her on the shoulder to remind her that he was there.\n\nThe leopard girl turned around and smiled warmly. He reached out his paw to take the other paw in his grip before leading her to his room. Upon arriving in his room he showed his friend around, presenting his most prized possessions and ignoring some of the ones he thought were more childish. Despite only being 9, he thought himself a proper big boy and didn't like when his parents bought her things like action figures, which he always stashed in his closet. Though, he was far from ready to move on from his plushies, which he had more than enough of.\n\nSajita picked up one of the many that were stashed on the tiger's bed. The small caterpillar was one that Dhruv had had since he was a toddler and was one of his earliest recollections of toys. He quickly lashed out and snatched the thing from her, catching his friend off guard. The girl backed off a bit but not saying anything about it. Dhruv patted the thing and placed it down back on the bed. The Bengal boy pointed to a corner where he stashed his bag and motioned for the leopard girl to do the same. \n\nOnce they were settled, the friends began their dance recital. Dhruv took the lead, as he often did doing little spurts of spins and curtseys to motion for his friend to be his partner. It wasn't long before the sitter showed up to check in on them. Ishir didn't bother to knock on the door.\n\n\"Oh, how cute. You two having a Gaudiya Nritya session together?\" It was the only traditional dance he was familiar with.\n\nSaljita blushed and stopped just short of picking the other cub off the ground. She looked over at him and eyed his body once again. The young girl wasn't sure what was appealing about it but she found herself continuing to stare at him. Dhruv watched her ogle over the older male, tapping her on the shoulder but not gaining her attention.\n\n\"How would you cubbies like to play a little game?\" The teen asked, feeling it was his duty to keep them occupied.\n\nSajita stuttered as she spoke. \"S-sure…what game?\"\n\n\"Just a board game. Nothing special.\" Ishir had brought Jaipur which he figured could be modified for three players.\n\nThe two cubs crooked their heads in curiosity before nodding. Following after the bigger male as they made their way back into the living room. The teen showed them how to play but Sajita found it very hard to focus with the teen right in front of her. Her eyes remained transfixed on him as he continued to focus on the game at hand. She wanted nothing more than to impress him and began to concoct a plan in her mind of how to accomplish that.\n\nDespite her best attempt to win the game, Dhruv was able to outdo her with a single hand. Ishir patted him on the back and ruffled his fur, making the Sajita feel rather jealous. Anger was building up inside her, feeling that she was being outdone by her so-called friend. She wanted nothing more than one up him. The girl stood up and stormed out of the room, and back into her own.\n\nDhruv got up from where he was sitting to check on his friend. She seemed upset and he didn't want to leave her hanging. Checking back in his room, he found no signs of her. Eventually, he discovered the bathroom door was shut. He knocked on it and there was no response. He assumed she had to be in there.\n\n\"You, alright?\" He asked through the door.\n\nThe girl leopard remained quiet and eventually stormed out, pushing Dhruv into his room. Stomping her way over to the bed, Sajita sat down with a sour look on her face. Her friend followed before long.\n\n\"I want a dance-off…this instant!\" She said, feeling like she was the better one at it.\n\nNot even bothering to ask, she began searching through his stuff and looked for something she could wear. Dhruv watched in awe, unsure of what to think of the girl's meltdown. Sure enough, she found a leotard to looked to be unisex. She tossed some of the other clothes to the side, causing them to fall from the drawer. The smaller cub walked up to pick up the mess his friend had created.\n\nSajita took the leotard over to the nearby bed and began to undress from her school stuff. Putting on the leotard was much more difficult than taking off the clothes. The thing was designed to be a tight fit, to begin with, and it wasn't her size. For some reason she believed showing off her body would win the older teen the attention she wholeheartedly desired. She struggled to put the thing on but after some effort, she managed.\n\nThe leopard girl walked in front of a mirror and admired herself for a moment. She lacked much definition but was more muscular than the average girl her age. The fact she had changed in front of the younger boy didn't bother either of them. Dhruv in the meanwhile found something for himself as he wasn't one to turn down a challenge, even if it came from a friend. The Bengal cub eventually found something but went to the bathroom to change as he wasn't quite as secure around others as she was.\n\nDhruv changed into a blue leotard that had recently been bought for him. Putting it on, he found the garment to be looser than he was used to. However, the Bengal wasn't one to be one-upped, let alone by a girl. Once he was changed into it, he walked back towards the front room, overhearing some laughing from the living room. Entering it, he noticed Ishir galloping around with the girl on his back.\n\nDhruv smirked at the show of affection between the two. A fire began to burn on the inside, a sensation he had not experienced before. The warmth of his body was more apparent to him as he felt his muscles ache ever so slightly. The Bengal looked at his arm, examining it, and saw that nothing was off so he shrugged the feeling off as nothing. He approached the two, they continued their horsing around not seeming worried about his return.\n\nThe boy stood there a moment feeling the anger bubble up inside him again. Never had the jealousy monster bit him so badly as it had now. He began to feel warm again, the sensation of a balmy itch causing him to scratch himself. It was an odd prickle that he couldn't explain. His muscles became even tenser, despite him just standing there. Even his joints began to creak and ache a bit.\n\nDhruv shook himself out of the funk he was in and walked closer to them. Sajita and Ishir had already stopped as the girl had grown tired of it. The teen was now kneeling on the carpet, looking over at the boy who looked visibly annoyed.\n\n\"Were you uncomfortable or something? Why did you change?\" Ishir wondered why he had changed into something that didn't appear to be as comfortable on her.\n\nDhruv shook his head. \"Nuh-uh. Do you like it?\" He said giving off his best superhero pose.\n\nSajita raced over to him. \"I love it! Do you have another one like that?\"\n\n\"Uh…no…sorry.\" The boy stood shoulder to shoulder with the girl looking right into her eyes.\n\n\"Aw…okay. I guess I'll just wear this then...\" Sajita didn't want to be outdone by her friend.\n\nThe two of them were just looking for any reason to be alone with the older teen. Ishir got up off the floor once Sajita was off him and stood up, seeming disinterested in her. She scowled at him, wanting nothing more than for him to pay attention to her. \n\n\"Sorry, bubarina. It's his turn now.\" He got closer to the boy and kneeled before him.\n\nIshir got back on the floor and presented his back just for Dhruv to mount, just as the other cub had. The Bengal boy wasted no time in getting on him. The two began to trot around the room in circles with Saljita looking on with a continuous frown on her face. She angrily turned around so she didn't have to look at it anymore.\n\nDhruv smirked as he looked at the girl. She was unhappy with the state of things. Yet, he couldn't have been happier. Joy filled him as the familiar sensation of warmth returned to his body. His muscles aching became more prominent, as the leotard began to stress more tightly against his expanding form. The moment he turned around, the feeling left him again. Saljita stared at him with arms crossed.\n\n\"Hmm? What's up? Did you need something?\" He asked figuring she was hungry or something.\n\nShe stamped her feet. \"I want something to eat!\"\n\n\"Isn't it a bit early for that?\" He asked looking at his watch.\n\nDhruv got off the makeshift horse standing up again, his legs wobbling a bit as he stood.\n\n\"What do you two want to do anyhow?\" Ishir asked as the only thing he brought was the card game.\n\nSaljita butted in before Dhruv could put in a word. \"A dance-off!\"\n\nStanding next to Sajita, Dhruv finally realized he could see overtop the girl's head. It was an odd thing to be sure as he had gotten used to the girl being bigger than he was. Now, all of a sudden he was the bigger one. Before he could think anything more of it, he accepted the challenge as he had been waiting for it for some time now.\n\n\"You're on!\" The boy bumped his shoulder into the girl.\n\nIshir had never been asked to host such a thing before but he wasn't about to turn down a chance to pass the time and entertain them. \"Alright, so how does this work?\"\n\n\"One person does a dance move. The other has to repeat or do better. The winner gets to do something special with Ishir?\" She smirked as she said this, feeling confident that she would come out on top.\n\nDhruv pumped his fist. \"Anytime, sister!\"\n\nIshir had no idea what she meant by \"something special\" but figured it couldn't have been that bad coming from an 11-year-old. He made himself comfortable on the reclining chair and leaned back.\n\n\"Well? Show me what you got.\" The teen said before folding his paws in his lap.\n\nThe girl put out her first next to Dhruv's. \"Rock, paper, scissors; to see who goes first.\"\n\nThe bigger boy nodded and the two did a single round of the game. The girl came out on top as she celebrated. Dhruv felt a slight twinge of annoyance rush through him, making him slightly angry. The familiar sensation of warmth running through him as his muscles continued to ache with increasing frequency. The boy continued to struggle as his body continued to ache and creak, little did he realize he was having a bit of a growth spurt. \n\nHis face even turned red at the continued disappointment of the moment. He was about to throw a fit and he was doing everything she could to continue to bottle up his emotions. Yet his body still inched upward, now able to see over the leopard's pointed ears. The sensation died down again as he wanted to focus on the matter at hand. Winning meant more than anything to him.\n\nSajita went first, doing a few cartwheels and rotating herself around before ending up in a handstand. She wanted nothing more than to show off to Ishir, who she knew was watching her every move with interest. The teen clapped once she was done, seeming impressed with the bit. Dhruv knew he had to do even better or he would never forgive himself.\n\nMoving caused his joints a sharp shrill of pain as he powered through it. He bit his lip as he tried to force himself into the action. Cartwheels were nothing special as he was able to go through the motions of what Sajita had just done. However, when he attempted the handstand it seemed his body wobbled a bit and he wasn't able to maintain it very long. He ended up on his bum in an inglorious end to his routine.\n\nSajita couldn't help but laugh as the boy fell short in just the first routine that he attempted. Dhruv had humiliated himself and he didn't know how he had failed something so simple. The Bengal boy had done that same routine many times in the past without issue. He sat there pouting, looking at the floor at a loss for what to do. He felt the tears welling up in his eyes, certain that he would never be as good as she was. His body felt warm…tensing up, he felt like he was going to explode. Gripping his thighs and writhing at himself trying to ease the discomfort.\n\n\"Aw, what's wrong?\" Sajita could tell he was upset and went over to comfort him.\n\nDhruv looked up in her moment of despair. He was without words but pushed her away, not wanting what she was offering.\n\n\"Oh come on. Your friend is just trying to help you.\" Ishir didn't like to see them fight over an issue he wasn't even aware of.\n\n\"I'll give you another try if you want…one more time?\" Sajita said trying to be as flexible as possible.\n\nThe boy picked himself up, hugging the girl. Feeling sorry for himself for a change and for not giving her a chance. As she backed up from him, she realized that she barely came up to his chin now. Sajita looked up at him, still with a smile on her face not seeming concerned by his apparent change in size. Dhruv wiped his eyes and backed away from the smaller girl, deciding to give it one more go.\n\nThe Bengal cub stood still for a moment. His muscles were very much sore but he didn't care. All he wanted to do was beat her. Nothing else mattered to him. Once again he gritted his teeth and grinned and bore through the motions of the routine. This time he was able to get through it without issue, landing on his two paws to rousing applause. Both Sajita and Ishir clapped at him.\n\nDhruv felt relief that he accomplished the feat. Pride soon began to billow in his chest as he stood there, his body warming up to the surging of emotions. A smile crept across his face as he could barely hide from the moment. His body steadily climbed upward, growing bit by bit. The seems in the cub's leotard began to rip and tear as it continued to stress against his larger form.\n\nThe applause slowed until it came to a stop as the three shared a moment of awkward closure. The girl was far enough away that no alarm had been raised. He approached Sajita once more…now very clearly towering over her. It was as if puberty had hit him, even though his form showed no definition. Ishir rubbed his eyes as if imagining things.

A mostly quiet class of kids drolls about doing their tests. It's a Friday and for many of them, their minds lay on other things. Most of them don't take it that seriously, except for the few who hone in on Academia. For the rest of them, their minds cared only for the weekend. It was only a matter of time before the bell rang.  Every so often looking up from their tests to see that the time on the clock hadn't moved at all.

Dhruv was a young Bengal tiger boy who lived on the outskirts of New Delhi. At 9 years of age, he had high hopes of becoming a dancer on the silver screen of Bollywood. Dhruv was your typical boy who was rather active on the dance floor. His parents had afforded him dance lessons at a young age and the boy had taken to it like bees to a flower. Over the last few years, he had become quite adept at mastering the fine art of dance.

Dhruv was not the most studious of students. He had a small clique of friends who had flitted in and out of the hobby. None of them took it as seriously as he did. The only exception was Sajita who was the only girl he got along with despite her being a few years older. The two had grown rather close and had even become dance partners at the school where they practiced but had never transpired to anything outside of the hobby.

That weekend was the first time that was supposed to change. The Bengal cub had finally convinced his parents to let him have the girl over for a sleepover. He had been pushing them for some time now but had never made any progress.  However, the Bengal boy's parents had made plans for the weekend and had hired the most strict babysitter they could find. A sitter they had used countless times in the past, who Dhruv knew took no nonsense.

Dhruv had been counting down the days until Friday and now it was only a matter of minutes before the close of the day was to come. The worksheet in front of him was uninteresting. Math was far from his favorite subject and he was in no mood to do it. Still, he knew better than to guess. He needed to get at least a passing grade or he'd never hear the end of it. So he put effort only into the first half before giving up and guessing the rest.

Just as he finished the final problem, the bell rang and the kids crashed out of the room into the hall. Dhruv was much the same, leaving his paper behind on his desk and only taking his bag with him. He piled his way through the crowd, not caring who he ran into. Of course, being one of the smaller ones made that difficult. Still, being a strong boy he was able to maintain himself all the same.

Once he made his way out into the open, he had to wait for Sajita. The girl was an athletic cub who wasn't known to be the most assertive kid. While waiting he practiced handstands on the lawn, not caring if he knocked into someone or not. He was eventually stopped by a teacher who was on duty, who warned him not to do it again or he would end up with detention.  

He began standing around idly, tiddling his hands as he looked around trying to occupy his boredom. It wasn't much longer before Sajita showed up. Like him, the girl was a big cat, except she was an albino leopard that lacked the traditional coloration of the species. She was a lanky girl who was tall for her age, much taller than the tiger himself. The older girl had recently had a growth spurt and much of her clothing poorly fit her.

"Ready to go to your place, Dhruv?" The bigger girl asked nonchalantly as she approached him.

The Bengal cub nodded his head. "Uh-huh. Come on…"

The smaller cub tugged on the larger one, seemingly easily. The girl putting up no fight but tagging along all the same. The two joined hands and skipped along once she got tired of being dragged along. The trip to his place wasn't too far and the weather was good except for the occasional drip of rain that fell from the sky. As they got closer to the Bengal family home, it began to rain harder so they quickened their pace in hopes they wouldn't get as wet.

Fortunately, the rain tapered off a bit and once they arrived, they were only mildly damp. The Bengal cub noticed that his parent's car was already absent and that only a moped sat in the parking space, chained to itself. It seemed that the sitter had already arrived. The smaller cub led up to the door and let them both in.

"Here, let me get us a towel." He suggested before darting off and returning with one that they shared.

The sound of the door closing back shut was enough to alert the sitter who was sitting nearby in the living room. The older teen stood up from the lounging chair he had gotten comfortable in. The large dhole, who went by the name of Ishir, had a burgundy-colored coat that was rather short in length. Still, in college, the teen did what he could to make ends meet even if meant spending time with kids. It had been a while since the last time had visited this home and he wasn't sure he would remember him.

The sight of seeing him standing up made the leopard girl hesitate a second. Sure, she had never seen Ishir before but he was like nothing she'd ever seen before. His body was toned and he seemed to have taken up a gym routine. He was chewing on some gum rather loudly with some beat-up old clothes that hung tightly against his body, leaving very little to the imagination. Dhruv, having noticed her distraction, tapped her on the shoulder to remind her that he was there.

The leopard girl turned around and smiled warmly. He reached out his paw to take the other paw in his grip before leading her to his room. Upon arriving in his room he showed his friend around, presenting his most prized possessions and ignoring some of the ones he thought were more childish. Despite only being 9, he thought himself a proper big boy and didn't like when his parents bought her things like action figures, which he always stashed in his closet. Though, he was far from ready to move on from his plushies, which he had more than enough of.

Sajita picked up one of the many that were stashed on the tiger's bed. The small caterpillar was one that Dhruv had had since he was a toddler and was one of his earliest recollections of toys. He quickly lashed out and snatched the thing from her, catching his friend off guard. The girl backed off a bit but not saying anything about it. Dhruv patted the thing and placed it down back on the bed. The Bengal boy pointed to a corner where he stashed his bag and motioned for the leopard girl to do the same.

Once they were settled, the friends began their dance recital. Dhruv took the lead, as he often did doing little spurts of spins and curtseys to motion for his friend to be his partner. It wasn't long before the sitter showed up to check in on them. Ishir didn't bother to knock on the door.

"Oh, how cute. You two having a Gaudiya Nritya session together?" It was the only traditional dance he was familiar with.

Saljita blushed and stopped just short of picking the other cub off the ground. She looked over at him and eyed his body once again. The young girl wasn't sure what was appealing about it but she found herself continuing to stare at him. Dhruv watched her ogle over the older male, tapping her on the shoulder but not gaining her attention.

"How would you cubbies like to play a little game?" The teen asked, feeling it was his duty to keep them occupied.

Sajita stuttered as she spoke. "S-sure…what game?"

"Just a board game. Nothing special." Ishir had brought Jaipur which he figured could be modified for three players.

The two cubs crooked their heads in curiosity before nodding. Following after the bigger male as they made their way back into the living room. The teen showed them how to play but Sajita found it very hard to focus with the teen right in front of her. Her eyes remained transfixed on him as he continued to focus on the game at hand. She wanted nothing more than to impress him and began to concoct a plan in her mind of how to accomplish that.

Despite her best attempt to win the game, Dhruv was able to outdo her with a single hand. Ishir patted him on the back and ruffled his fur, making the Sajita feel rather jealous. Anger was building up inside her, feeling that she was being outdone by her so-called friend. She wanted nothing more than one up him. The girl stood up and stormed out of the room, and back into her own.

Dhruv got up from where he was sitting to check on his friend. She seemed upset and he didn't want to leave her hanging. Checking back in his room, he found no signs of her. Eventually, he discovered the bathroom door was shut. He knocked on it and there was no response. He assumed she had to be in there.

"You, alright?" He asked through the door.

The girl leopard remained quiet and eventually stormed out, pushing Dhruv into his room. Stomping her way over to the bed, Sajita sat down with a sour look on her face. Her friend followed before long.

"I want a dance-off…this instant!" She said, feeling like she was the better one at it.

Not even bothering to ask, she began searching through his stuff and looked for something she could wear. Dhruv watched in awe, unsure of what to think of the girl's meltdown. Sure enough, she found a leotard to looked to be unisex. She tossed some of the other clothes to the side, causing them to fall from the drawer. The smaller cub walked up to pick up the mess his friend had created.

Sajita took the leotard over to the nearby bed and began to undress from her school stuff. Putting on the leotard was much more difficult than taking off the clothes. The thing was designed to be a tight fit, to begin with, and it wasn't her size. For some reason she believed showing off her body would win the older teen the attention she wholeheartedly desired. She struggled to put the thing on but after some effort, she managed.

The leopard girl walked in front of a mirror and admired herself for a moment. She lacked much definition but was more muscular than the average girl her age. The fact she had changed in front of the younger boy didn't bother either of them. Dhruv in the meanwhile found something for himself as he wasn't one to turn down a challenge, even if it came from a friend. The Bengal cub eventually found something but went to the bathroom to change as he wasn't quite as secure around others as she was.

Dhruv changed into a blue leotard that had recently been bought for him. Putting it on, he found the garment to be looser than he was used to. However, the Bengal wasn't one to be one-upped, let alone by a girl. Once he was changed into it, he walked back towards the front room, overhearing some laughing from the living room. Entering it, he noticed Ishir galloping around with the girl on his back.

Dhruv smirked at the show of affection between the two. A fire began to burn on the inside, a sensation he had not experienced before. The warmth of his body was more apparent to him as he felt his muscles ache ever so slightly.  The Bengal looked at his arm, examining it, and saw that nothing was off so he shrugged the feeling off as nothing. He approached the two, they continued their horsing around not seeming worried about his return.

The boy stood there a moment feeling the anger bubble up inside him again. Never had the jealousy monster bit him so badly as it had now. He began to feel warm again, the sensation of a balmy itch causing him to scratch himself. It was an odd prickle that he couldn't explain. His muscles became even tenser, despite him just standing there. Even his joints began to creak and ache a bit.

Dhruv shook himself out of the funk he was in and walked closer to them. Sajita and Ishir had already stopped as the girl had grown tired of it. The teen was now kneeling on the carpet, looking over at the boy who looked visibly annoyed.

"Were you uncomfortable or something? Why did you change?" Ishir wondered why he had changed into something that didn't appear to be as comfortable on her.

Dhruv shook his head. "Nuh-uh. Do you like it?" He said giving off his best superhero pose.

Sajita raced over to him. "I love it! Do you have another one like that?"

"Uh…no…sorry." The boy stood shoulder to shoulder with the girl looking right into her eyes.

"Aw…okay. I guess I'll just wear this then..." Sajita didn't want to be outdone by her friend.

The two of them were just looking for any reason to be alone with the older teen. Ishir got up off the floor once Sajita was off him and stood up, seeming disinterested in her. She scowled at him, wanting nothing more than for him to pay attention to her.

"Sorry, bubarina. It's his turn now." He got closer to the boy and kneeled before him.

Ishir got back on the floor and presented his back just for Dhruv to mount, just as the other cub had. The Bengal boy wasted no time in getting on him. The two began to trot around the room in circles with Saljita looking on with a continuous frown on her face. She angrily turned around so she didn't have to look at it anymore.

Dhruv smirked as he looked at the girl. She was unhappy with the state of things. Yet, he couldn't have been happier. Joy filled him as the familiar sensation of warmth returned to his body. His muscles aching became more prominent, as the leotard began to stress more tightly against his expanding form. The moment he turned around, the feeling left him again. Saljita stared at him with arms crossed.

"Hmm? What's up? Did you need something?" He asked figuring she was hungry or something.

She stamped her feet. "I want something to eat!"

"Isn't it a bit early for that?" He asked looking at his watch.

Dhruv got off the makeshift horse standing up again, his legs wobbling a bit as he stood.

"What do you two want to do anyhow?" Ishir asked as the only thing he brought was the card game.

Saljita butted in before Dhruv could put in a word. "A dance-off!"

Standing next to Sajita, Dhruv finally realized he could see overtop the girl's head. It was an odd thing to be sure as he had gotten used to the girl being bigger than he was. Now, all of a sudden he was the bigger one. Before he could think anything more of it, he accepted the challenge as he had been waiting for it for some time now.

"You're on!" The boy bumped his shoulder into the girl.

Ishir had never been asked to host such a thing before but he wasn't about to turn down a chance to pass the time and entertain them. "Alright, so how does this work?"

"One person does a dance move. The other has to repeat or do better. The winner gets to do something special with Ishir?"  She smirked as she said this, feeling confident that she would come out on top.

Dhruv pumped his fist. "Anytime, sister!"

Ishir had no idea what she meant by "something special" but figured it couldn't have been that bad coming from an 11-year-old. He made himself comfortable on the reclining chair and leaned back.

"Well? Show me what you got." The teen said before folding his paws in his lap.

The girl put out her first next to Dhruv's. "Rock, paper, scissors; to see who goes first."

The bigger boy nodded and the two did a single round of the game. The girl came out on top as she celebrated. Dhruv felt a slight twinge of annoyance rush through him, making him slightly angry. The familiar sensation of warmth running through him as his muscles continued to ache with increasing frequency.  The boy continued to struggle as his body continued to ache and creak, little did he realize he was having a bit of a growth spurt.

His face even turned red at the continued disappointment of the moment. He was about to throw a fit and he was doing everything she could to continue to bottle up his emotions. Yet his body still inched upward, now able to see over the leopard's pointed ears. The sensation died down again as he wanted to focus on the matter at hand. Winning meant more than anything to him.

Sajita went first, doing a few cartwheels and rotating herself around before ending up in a handstand. She wanted nothing more than to show off to Ishir, who she knew was watching her every move with interest. The teen clapped once she was done, seeming impressed with the bit. Dhruv knew he had to do even better or he would never forgive himself.

Moving caused his joints a sharp shrill of pain as he powered through it. He bit his lip as he tried to force himself into the action. Cartwheels were nothing special as he was able to go through the motions of what Sajita had just done. However, when he attempted the handstand it seemed his body wobbled a bit and he wasn't able to maintain it very long. He ended up on his bum in an inglorious end to his routine.

Sajita couldn't help but laugh as the boy fell short in just the first routine that he attempted. Dhruv had humiliated himself and he didn't know how he had failed something so simple. The Bengal boy had done that same routine many times in the past without issue. He sat there pouting, looking at the floor at a loss for what to do. He felt the tears welling up in his eyes, certain that he would never be as good as she was. His body felt warm…tensing up, he felt like he was going to explode. Gripping his thighs and writhing at himself trying to ease the discomfort.

"Aw, what's wrong?" Sajita could tell he was upset and went over to comfort him.

Dhruv looked up in her moment of despair. He was without words but pushed her away, not wanting what she was offering.

"Oh come on. Your friend is just trying to help you." Ishir didn't like to see them fight over an issue he wasn't even aware of.

"I'll give you another try if you want…one more time?" Sajita said trying to be as flexible as possible.

The boy picked himself up, hugging the girl. Feeling sorry for himself for a change and for not giving her a chance. As she backed up from him, she realized that she barely came up to his chin now. Sajita looked up at him, still with a smile on her face not seeming concerned by his apparent change in size. Dhruv wiped his eyes and backed away from the smaller girl, deciding to give it one more go.

The Bengal cub stood still for a moment. His muscles were very much sore but he didn't care. All he wanted to do was beat her. Nothing else mattered to him. Once again he gritted his teeth and grinned and bore through the motions of the routine. This time he was able to get through it without issue, landing on his two paws to rousing applause. Both Sajita and Ishir clapped at him.

Dhruv felt relief that he accomplished the feat. Pride soon began to billow in his chest as he stood there, his body warming up to the surging of emotions. A smile crept across his face as he could barely hide from the moment. His body steadily climbed upward, growing bit by bit. The seems in the cub's leotard began to rip and tear as it continued to stress against his larger form.

The applause slowed until it came to a stop as the three shared a moment of awkward closure. The girl was far enough away that no alarm had been raised. He approached Sajita once more…now very clearly towering over her. It was as if puberty had hit him, even though his form showed no definition. Ishir rubbed his eyes as if imagining things. The boy had just been barely bigger than the other cub only moments ago and yet now stood looming overtop of her. He stood up from the chair he was in and approached the two. Dhruv was still smaller than he was but the difference was much smaller than the one he had with Sajita.

Ishir couldn't figure out what was going on but it was apparent that something wasn't right.

"Did you have a growth spurt or whatever they're called?" Sajita asked as it finally dawned apparent to her that her friend was bigger than she was.

Dhruv shrugged. "I guess…my body is all sorts of sore from it."

The teen knew that could have been true but he had just watched it unfold in front of his eyes. He knew growth was a much more tedious process than that. He wanted answers and needed them before the boy's parents discovered the issue. Looking at him, the clothing he was wearing had visibly begun to tear.

"Hey, Dhruv. Do you want to do a move now?" Saljita suggested since it was his turn now.

The Bengal boy nodded, after all, he still wanted to come out on top. A thought came to his mind as he bent his form down on the floor and took a seat. Angling his hands behind him, Dhruv slowly lifted himself off the floor. His joints ached as he gritted his teeth and spun himself around, trying his best attempt at what he considered a break dance. Only managing a single round before his muscles gave out on him.

Ishir and Saljita clapped at him as if it was a move neither of them had expected. The cub beamed a smile back to them, showing a huge toothy grin on his face. The leopard smiled, happy that her friend was content at the moment as he had seemed so distraught recently. The familiar warming sensation he had been experiencing throughout the day soon returned to his body.

Dhruv's grin soon turned sour as the growing pains returned to his body. Some rips and tears could be heard as the cub tore through the inseams of his leotard. The cub's form elongates, seemingly stretching right before their eyes. The boy couldn't help but cover himself as he realized his underwear could now be seen underneath.

"Maybe we should stop…?" Ishir asked, feeling like something was wrong.

Dhruv huffed. "Then I win?"

"How about you two go play and we can continue later…?" The dhole suggested a temporary solution to the boy's comment.

Ishir offered a paw to help the crestfallen Bengal cub. Dhruv took a hold of the paw and picked himself up.  The teen grunted as he struggled to maintain his balance to pull the cub up. Once he was standing, he looked over at the Bengal boy. The cub now just came up to under his shoulder. He was bigger and getting closer to Ishir's size now. Dhruv craned his head upward, realizing that very same issue. Bewilderment caused him to hesitate a moment before reaching around to hug the teen.

Ishir thought to deter him but didn't, allowing the affection to remain for a moment. The teen reached around him and patted her on the back, ruffling his fur a bit. The bigger male broke off the hug and looked at him again. Dhruv's smile was rather wide and his leotard did very little to hide his lithe form.  Nothing about this seemed right anymore. It didn't make sense.

Ishir's mind was clouded with self-doubts about what happened to the boy. He left the girl with her friend, alone once again. His mind swirling with confusion.
