The band had completed their residency and had left town. All signs of Alvin and the Chipmunks posters had been taken down and replaced by whatever other groups were coming in the future. Things had returned to normal for the two teens, except that the young chipmunk's Lacrosse team had entered the postseason. They had played well enough that they qualified for the playoffs.\n\nXavier woke up early that morning, as he had been doing more often than not of late. Setting his alarm an hour before his usual wake-up time. Of course, he'd told his parents about it. They usually got up earlier than he did, but he didn't want them to think he was doing anything nefarious. They weren't surprised when he told them he wanted to get up early to practice, especially on game or training day.\n\nThat particular day was a practice day for the young teen. He got out of bed and rubbed his eyes as the alarm clock buzzed in his room. Briefly looking outside, he could see that it was still dark outside. Only a few street lights could be seen with a single fur out for their morning run. Xavier didn't recognize them but he felt certain that they were likely a member of the community where he lived.\n\nThe rodent slowly eased himself out of his bed. Nearby he had placed one of the plushes that Pent had given him. The fox boy had insisted he had one too, and Xavier didn't mind placating his boyfriend. He got up and slowly padded over to his wardrobe. His drawers were organized by type with his sporting stuff set in second rung to the top. Opening it so he could grab himself a pair of sweat pants and a thin long sleeved shirt.\n\nXavier changed out of his pajamas and into his training gear. The stuff was somewhat big on him since he was between sizes. He rolled up the cuffs of the sleeves and pants so they didn't hang on him as much. Sliding on some socks and shoes, he began to make his way. The chipmunk didn't bother turning on the lights as he lightly moved through the house. He heard no movement so he assumed his parents were still asleep.\n\nThe chipmunk teen headed outside, lightly closing the door behind him so it didn't make any noise. It was a little brisk that day and a light breeze blew through the area, which made him glad he had dressed a bit warmer. Going around the back of the building to the rear portion of it. His parents had set up a small shack where they kept stuff and much of Xavier's sports stuff was kept inside. \n\nThe door was always kept open to the small shack. The old wooden shed had no lock on it since the family kept nothing valuable inside. Rifling through it, the teen looked for his Lacrosse stuff. His lacrosse stick, balls, and net were all placed in the corner. He took it out, bringing it into the more open area of his backyard. The teen set it up near the back right next to the fence so the wood would act as a backstop for any balls that went awry.\n\n Previously he had set up a bullseye chart on the fence so that he could practice his aim. Xavier was more than adept at shooting towards any part of the target but he did it anyways. The chipmunk pulled backward and began practicing his shooting and passing skills. Not having anymore to toss the ball back at him meant he had to fetch his balls when he ran out. Fortunately he had a good few of them so he didn't have to do it very frequently.\n\nXavier proceeded to practice for the next hour as he rocketed ball after ball toward the net or target. His aim was impeccable and he only missed twice when he tried to repel the ball off one of the metal bars of the net. He practiced a few trick shots but none of them were flambuoyant in nature. He was much more interested in getting goals or hitting a specific area of the target then showing off, at least when his boyfriend wasn't around.\n\nHis mother was the first one out to check on him as she was the earlier riser of his two parents.The woman stepped outside, still in her bed robe. She wasn't too surprised that he was practicing. Xavier had always taken lacrosse seriously and little had changed of his work ethic toward the sport. She approached him but didn't get to close to avoid being hit with the stick.\n\n\"I made you some breakfast when you're ready.\" She said with a soft tone.\n\nHe didn't look back at her. \"Just a few more.\"\n\n\"It's almost time for school, honey. Please finish up.\" The older woman wasn't always firm with him, so he knew when she meant business.\n\nXavier tossed one more ball inside the net. \"Okay, Mom.\"\n\n\"Clean up and breakfast will be ready for you inside.\" His mother sad before turning around to head back inside.\n\nThe chipmunk teen, as he was told. Putting the stuff back away in the shed before closing it. Heading back inside, he wiped his forehead of a few beads of sweat. He hadn't worked up much of a sweat, but his body was still heated up. Once he was back inside, the air conditioning caused his body to shiver. His body didn't take long to adjust since his parents didn't keep it that cool in the fall.\n\nMaking his way back to the kitchen, he saw some pancakes and syrup ready for him on the counter. His father greeted him but said nothing else as the older male pushed passed his son. Xavier grabbed himself some juice and sat down. The teens mother returned before long to the area with a wash rag in her hand.\n\n\"Here…you're a sweaty mess. Please wash up before I take you to school.\" She handed it to the boy.\n\nThe rodent boy looked up at her before taking it. \"Alright, I will.\"\n\nHe began to dig into the meal. It was a hearty breakfast, and the syrup was rather rich in flavor. The older woman passed him an apple on her way back out of the kitchen. Xavier nibbled on it a bit as the wet rag. He could smell the soap on it and quickly wiped it once over his forehead. Figuring he didn't need to spend much effort on it since he didn't think it was that bad. Xavier finished his meal and wiped a bit more of the sweat off his fur. The soapy and damp cloth left his fur a bit moist, but it was nothing he couldn't deal with.\n\nOnce he was done cleaning up, he returned to his room to get read for school. Stripping out of his clothes changing into his school uniform. The stuff clothes sticked a bit to his body but he quickly shook it off. His mother soon called from down the hall to him telling her son that she was ready to head out. Xavier was just finishing up in slipping into the longer cotton socks and stiffer shoes and he hopped down the hall as he kicked them on.\n\nHis mother handed him his book bag and held the door open for him. Soon the two of them made their way out of the home. The wind had picked up a bit as it was now gusting through the area. It was strong enough that the trees and bushes around them could be seen swaying back and forth. They made their way back to the woman's car, both of them getting inside it and buckling in. Xavier tossed his bag on his lap and waited patiently.\n\nThe trip over to the school took a bit longer than usual. The two of them hit traffic when they came across a wreck. It was nothing serious but a collision always amounted to some degree of rubber necking. Fortunately, they had left early enough that they were able to get past it without much stress. A traffic cop helped to redirect traffic and it made things smoother than they might have otherwise been.\n\nThey arrived to the school before long. It was somewhat later and more students had already arrived. Xavier waved to his mother and picked up his bag before heading out to the school yard. The chipmunk had cooled down now and his body was no longer sweaty as much of it had absorbed into his body. The teen walked back to the rear portion of the school, hoping to find his boyfriend still waiting for him.\n\nOf course, like the bookworm he was the fox had his nose in yet another science book. The rodent slowly crept up on him before standing overtop him.\n\n\"Hey, foxy, how are you?\" The brown furred boy said in a soft tone.\n\nPent placed his book down on his lap. \"Hey, Xae. I'm good. How are you?\"\n\n\"I'm alright. Sorry that I'm late. We went past a wreck on the way to school.\" The bigger boy sat next to his boyfriend.\n\nThe fox teen smiled at him. \"It's not a problem. It's not like there's anything you could have done about it anyway.\"\n\nXavier looked at the book briefly. \"What'cha reading?\"\n\nThe smaller boy showed him the book. \"It's about volcanic processes in magma chambers.\"\n\n\"That sounds interesting. What got you interested in that?\" The rodent placed his bag on the ground.\n\nThe white furred boy hummed. \"Mr. Bernard suggested that I might be interested in it and loaned me a book about it.\"\n\n\"Neat. Do you want to come to practice today? We are getting ready for the big game against the school. Maybe the coach will let you participate again.\" Xavier suggested as he liked to play with the fox boy, even if he wasn't great at the sport.\n\nPent nodded. \"Yeah, my foster mother doesn't care. I told Samaliel that I was going with you after school.\"\n\n\"Cool, one of my parents will take us there and drop you off when it's over. Maybe we can get dinner too.\" The chipmunk had worked out the entire plan in his head.\n\nThe smaller boy gently leaned on his boyfriend. \"That sounds good. I can't wait.\"\n\nThe brown furred boy draped his arms over the other teen. They remained like that for a short while until the warning bell rang. They didn't have as long together that morning since Xavier had gotten there later than usual. Joining hands, they made their way inside, going through the back doors that led through the school. Passing by Santiago and some of the other older students, who paid them no heed.\n\nThey stopped by Xavier's class first before they separated. Some of the other students eyed them warily but said nothing as it was a normal occurrence now. The chipmunk waved to his boyfriend as he waited to be let into\n his first class. His early classes were slower than usual. Xavier's anticipation for practice only made the wait even more palpable. Fortunately for him, most of the assignments were reviews since the school was more involved in the local youth sports scene.\n\nThe secondary school had several sports that it offered with the only one offered off campus being hockey. Lacrosse was far from the most popular and was only offered during the warmer months. Xavier had been a part of the private team after having shifted from the school one a few years back. The school team was still considered one of the best teams in the district, even without him on it.\n\nThe Lacrosse tournament was not the only sporting championships held that time of year. Basketball and Tennis competitions were rotated with Lacrosse. Basketball was by far the dominant sport in the fall and had the most matches. The school Basketball team was well known at the secondary level and had placed top ranked several years in a row. Lacrosse wasn't nearly as popular but the school team still did well enough.\n\nXavier went through his first classes as normal. Only math gave him homework, but it was an assignment he felt fairly confident in since Pent had shown him how to do it. It wasn't until Science that things mixed up a bit. The science teacher decided to announce a test, despite the upcoming tournament. It put a damper on the young chipmunk's day, though the constant thought of Lacrosse later that day lessened his disappointment.\n\nWhen lunchtime rolled around, Xavier made his way through the busy halls leading towards the cafeteria. He passed by a few members of the school lacrosse team, but they said nothing to him. Many of them still treated him like a pariah, even though the moment of their history had faded into memory. The chipmunk harbored no ill will toward any of them, but he still avoided them to stay away from any potential drama.\n\nXavier made his way into the lunchroom. He could see Milo hanging out with Chloe again. The girl was once again draped over him. They seemed to have hit it off despite all of the rabbit's troubles with relationships in the past. The chipmunk decided not to bother them and waited in line as it moved toward the serving station. The old hippo was back serving food again, so the queue was moving quicker than lately.\n\nAs he waited, he looked around for Pent. The fox was seen nowhere, so he figured the other boy must have gone outside already. Xavier waited for his turn for food and thanked the server when he was given a tray of food. The meal that day was veggie casserole soup and some crackers. It was different than usual as the cafeteria staff was trying to mix up the variety. The chipmunk was more than glad that something different was being offered.\n\nMaking his way away from the serving station, the rodent looked around once again. Pent was still nowhere to be seen. The teen decided to head outside as he was more than certain his boyfriend was outside. Just as he was exiting the building, he saw someone standing in front of the tree where he and the fox boy usually hung out. The unfamiliar buck was someone he hadn't seen before, but he sensed something was wrong.\n\nPent was minding his own business, waiting for his boyfriend to join him like he always did. This larger moose teen had approached him and now stood right in front of him. The much more bulky male kicked some dirt in his face.\n\n\"Where's your boyfriend, nerd?\" The cervine said with a scowl on his face.\n\nThe fox looked at him briefly. \"Beat it.\"\n\n\"Or what? Xavier isn't here to defend you, pipsqueak.\" The larger teen was in no mood for nonsense.\n\nPent rolled his eyes. \"I can defend myself.\"\n\nXavier was now close enough to see what was going on. Now just a meter away.\n\nThe chipmunk grabbed the moose from behind. The rodent was a good deal smaller than the other teen but showed no sense of fear.\n\n\"Get lost.\" The rodent said defiantly.\n\nThe moose smirked at him. \"Looky who it is. Just who I wanted.\"\n\n\"I don't know who you are but you need to leave. You're not welcome here.\" Xavier gave him a stern look.\n\nThe bigger teen cackled. \"You don't need to know who I am.\"\n\nThe moose suddenly swung forward as he tried to hit Xavier on the side of the face, causing him to drop his food on the floor. The chipmunk was quick enough that he was able to dodge it. Stepping behind him to take him into an armlock. Xavier held him like that for a moment.\n\n\"I don't know what your problem is, but I'm not going to fight you.\" The smaller rodent said confidently.\n\nThe chipmunk had gotten into a few scuffles when he was young and Pent had changed his mind about conflict. Nowadays, he followed the fox boys creed of non-violence. The larger moose struggled to get out of the hold. \n\n\"Let me go or you'll regret this.\" The moose was making no progress in getting out.\n\nXavier huffed. \"Only if you promise to leave us alone.\"\n\nThe bulkier teen nodded as he knew there was no winning this now. The smaller boy let him go before the moose walked off. Xavier watched him leave to make sure he didn't come back. The whole ordeal had only lasted a few minutes but it had disrupted their entire day. Looking down, the brown furred boy couldn't help but frown as his food had all fallen to the ground. Still, he was more concerned about his boyfriend then that at the moment.\n\n\"Are you alright, Pent?\" He knelt down to get closer to the fox boy.\n\nThe white furred teen nodded at him. \"Yeah, he wasn't here long. How about you?\"\n\n\"I'm alright. I'm just glad he didn't hurt you. What was his problem anyways? Did he tell you who he was?\" The rodent picked up some of the food from the ground in hopes of cleaning it off.\n\nPent noticed the food had been dirtied. \"I'm not sure. He didn't say much. Do you want some of my food since yours is ruined now?\"\n\n\"Are you sure? I don't want you to go hungry.\" Xavier said before finally taking a seat next to him.\n\nThe smaller teen nodded. \"Of course. I don't want you to go hungry either. Please have some of mine.\"\n\nThe fox picked up some of the food and plasticware and transferred it over the chipmunk's tray. It was by no means a lot, but Pent wasn't going to let his boyfriend go without food. The two of them ate the rest of their food. Xavier was able to salvage some of the stuff though the main dish had been completely spilled out. Fortunately it was enough to tide them over at least for the time being. The bell rang after a few minutes of them talking about nothing specific.\n\nThe rest of the school day went by like normal, with nothing out of the ordinary happening. They didn't see the moose teen again. The incident had fallen to the back of their mind, and neither of them thought to report it since it hadn't escalated beyond the initial conflict. Besides…it wasn't even like they knew who it was.\n\nWhen the final bell rang for the day, Xavier made his way outside with Pent. The two of them had just finished a game of volleyball in gym class. They didn't get to participate much since the school only had a few nets. As such, the students who played were rotated so that everyone got to play a match. The chipmunk and fox were both in two games, and in the ones they weren't, they sat in the bleachers with some of the other students.\n\nOut in front of school, clouds had begun to move in so much of the sun was obstructed. A light gale passed through the area, pushing some leaves and twigs along with it. Xavier looked up at the sky. The clouds were not grey but he hoped that the weather would not worsen. After all, he had practice and had been looking forward to it the entire day. Xavier and Pent continued their way to the car loop.\n\nThe fox stopped by the bus roundabout to make sure his brother had a good day. Samaliel was hanging out with Nait and Dakota. He'd been hanging out much more frequently with both of them. Pent had noticed that lately his brother had been spending more time with the girl. He assumed something more was developing between them, but had said nothing about it. The teen figured his brother would talk about it when he was ready.\n\nThe white furred teen returned to the side of his boyfriend. Xavier was texting his parents to see if they were close. He knew that he had plenty of time to get their on time but he wanted to be early. His parents let him know they were waiting in line and to be patient. They continued to wait a few minutes as the car line fed through the loop. It was a short while until his fathers familiar sedan could be seen in the distance.\n\nXavier's father picked up and let both of them in the back. He had already placed the chipmunk boys equipment bag in the front so that they could sit together. The older male knew both of them preferred it this way. They buckled in and soon after the boys father made his way to the park where the private team held it's practices. \n\n\"How was school, sport?\" The elder chipmunk asked his son.\n\nXavier gave him a thumbs up. \"It was alright. I only have math homework but it's easy.\"\n\n\"Easy, eh? I guess you won't be needing Pent's help tonight then?\" His father chuckled at his own joke.\n\nThe brown furred boy leaned forward in the seat. \"No…but can he come over for dinner after practice, please?\"\n\n\"Did your foster mother say it's alright, Pent?\" Xavier's father rarely said no to the request anymore.\n\nPent shrugged. \"I'll text her, but I don't think she cares.\"\n\n\"As long as she says yes, then he can stay.\" He winked at the two boys through the car's rear-view mirror.\n\nPulling out his phone, the fox texted his foster mother. He knew she didn't care but he still did it to follow the rules. Xavier's father began the trek from the school to the park. The distance to the park wasn't very long but with the usual traffic coming out of the school, it took longer than it would on a weekday. The private team accommodated for such things\n and the coaches allowed for staggered arrival times.\n\nThey arrived at the park before long. The usual check point at the entrance had been stream lined with a row for the private team. All Xavier's father had to do was show his team pass. It was a little voucher he could keep on the dash board for like events. The fur taking care of the station waved them through as hes potted the fairly obvious pass. They were on their way with a few other cars in front and behind them following the same route.\n\nFollowing along the route that led to the red part of the park, Xavier's father continued at a slow pace. As they got ever closer to the site of the practice, Xavier asked for his gear bag. His father handed it back to him before he changed from his school gym clothes to his lacrosse gear. Handing his clothes to Pent for him to hold for the time being. Stopping short of putting on his pads and deciding they could wait until they got out of the car.\n\nThe fox stashed away Xavier's clothes in his bag for him. It didn't take much longer before they arrived at the place of the practice. The field had been freshly mowed with the grass short and the air ripe with the smell of it. Various members of the team could be seen on the field, including the two coaches who had arrived previously. Xavier's father pulled into one of the parking spots and handed his son the water bottle he'd prepared for him.\n\nXavier and Pent filed out of the car the moment it came to a complete stop. Not waiting for the chipmunk's old man, as both of them were excited. The fox wasn't big on Lacrosse but enjoyed doing anything that the other teen liked. The rodent knew he needed to ask one of the coaches to see if Pent could participate in passing drills. He knew the fox couldn't do any scrims since he had no protective equipment, but it was better than nothing.\n\nOf course, the coach was fine with it, and the older otter handed the fox some of the loaner equipment they kept around. Xavier and Pent trotted off to join the rest of the team. Participating in some of the passing drills. The fox had gotten much better at the sport, but he was nothing more than a novice compared to the players on the team. Despite being at a higher tier of play now, the chipmunk boy was still the best player.\n\nOver time the rest of the team showed up and Pent would only participate for a short time. The fox retired to the bleachers to watch his boyfriend with the teens father. The team soon began it's scrim games, a match of offense versus defense. No side would remain one the entire time but players would keep their usual roles. Every player was expected to know both sides of the ball and Xavier was adept at both offense and defense.\n\nPractice was very intense that day. The coaches made the players do several sprints around the field before it began. Five scrimmages would ensue with each of the players expected to rotate on both sides of the ball. It was full contact except that they weren't allowed to tackle. Xavier wanted to show off to Pent and played hard. Scoring on the very first possession of the game. His boyfriend cheered him on with glee.\n\nThings slowed down a bit after that, with the other players clamping down on defense. It was a hot day, and the players were given occasional breaks to hydrate. The scrims were highly competitive, with neither side giving much of an edge to the other. Xavier was able to score twice more, but other than him, only one other player hit the back of the net. As the sun began to go down, it started to sprinkle, and the field became muddy and slick.\n\nAs it continued to rain and the players became increasingly dirty, they were soon called in by the coach. They decided to end it as they wanted them to rest for the big game. The Sphinxes were to play the school team in a few days. The coaches held a big pow wow, urging the players to be ready for the game. It was the first game of the playoffs, and they wanted to hit things off on the right foot. Xavier was especially enthused as it would be the first time he got to play against the school team since leaving it.\n\nThe coaches dismissed them before long. Xavier had worked up quite the sweat and was cooling off on the sideline. Much of his body was littered with dirt and mud. His boyfriend had been watching him with interest the entire time. Pent had always been a good supportive member of his life and hobbies. The fox made his way over to the other teen to join him. The other players paid him no mind since they'd seen him plenty of times, and having him around was a normal occurrence.\n\n\"You played well today, Xae.\" The smaller teen smiled at his boyfriend.\n\nThe rodent swung his arm around the fox. \"Thanks, Pent. \n\nThe smaller boy joined his arm around him as well. Xavier grabbed a bottle of water before squirting him a few times with it. \n\n\"Hey…no fair…\" The fox gave him a fake grimace.\n\nThe chipmunk smiled at him and offered Pent the bottle. Gladly taking a swig of it, the two boys made a few short strides over to the team bench. Some of the other team members were still around, but they continued to mind their own business. The coaches, in the meantime, were collecting the gear left around so that they didn't leave anything in the park. The players started to leave once they had gathered their own things. It was all a bit of a rush as they wanted to get out of there before the weather got any worse.\n\nXavier's father called them over to let them know it was time to go. The chipmunk grabbed his stuff and both he and Pent made their way back to his father's car. His father put it in a plastic bag before he could put it inside. The white furred teen checked his phone to see if his foster mother had responded. Of course, she put in a simple response to say it was all alright. The woman was always short with him, but it was an issue that Pent never kept close to his heart or mind.\n\nThe rodent and fox filed back into the back seat after Xavier's father took his bag from him. He teen was dripping with both sweat and water. His fur was matted and his jersey was soaked. The teen was a dirty mess. It was evident the teen had overspent himself. He handed a towel to both of them so they could dry off.\n\n\"I want you to take a shower before you do anything with Pent at home. Is that clear?\" His father reminded him since he knew the teen could smell quite foul at times.\n\nXavier nodded at him from the back seat. \"Alright, Dad.\"\n\nThey began their trek back home. The bigger teen held his boyfriend right against his chest. Pent's nose brushed right against his jersey. He could smell the boyish musk of the other teen. It was a smell he knew all too well and one that he was rather fond of, and Xavier knew it. It was almost as if the chipmunk was tantalizing him as the brown furred teen smirked at him with his usual toothy grin. The bigger boy made sure to keep him as close as possible.\n\nXavier's body was warmer than usual, though it had cooled off a bit since the end of practice. Moving his hand under Pent's shirt and rubbed his midriff. Slowly he stroked his soft but somewhat wet fur. The smaller teen was all too keen to stay the way he was. The longer he did, the more of that pheromone filled musky aroma filled his nostrils. Still, he did not dig his nose into the other boy as he was afraid of being discovered by the other teens father.\n\nThe trip back to the chipmunk's house wasn't very long, even despite the weather. It continued to rain down as it trickled down slowly. Clouds completely covered the sky in a grey overcast. Xavier's father pulled into the front of their home. There were no signs of his wife's car, so he figured she was likely out and about doing errands. The chipmunk and fox teens got out of the car once it had come to a full stop.\n\nXavier's father tossed him the bag from the other side of the car. \"Shower…now!\"\n\nHis son nodded. \"I will after I put my stuff in the laundry room.\"\n\n\"Good idea. Make sure you take your cleats off at the door. They are caked in mud. Pent…you too. No shoes for either of you…please.\" The older male followed behind them and made sure they followed the house rules.\n\nBoth Xavier and Pent shuffled off their shoes. Xavier's father shook out the umbrella just outside the door. The older rodent looked at their socked paws briefly. His sons were grungry and he wasn't sure the other boys feet were any better. He considered his options for a moment but before the man could say anything the two teens were gone. Fortunately it didn't seem that neither of them were trailing any dirt so he decided to let it go. \n\nThe two of them made their way to Xavier's room. The chipmunk knew he needed to grab a change of clothes before he could take a shower. Stepping inside, the brown furred boy looked at the white furred one for a moment. The fox's eyes were glazed over as if he were in a daze. Pent stared at him with a light smile on his face. The bigger teen took a step closer to him so that they were within one another's personal space.\n\nXavier tipped up the fox's chin a bit, looking directly into his eyes. He scratched his chin lightly.\n\n\"You're such a silly fox sometimes, you know that?\" The bigger teen grinned at him with his usual toothy demeanor.\n\nPent arched his eyebrows in confusion. \"Huh? What do you mean?\"\n\n\"Nothing. It's just easy to get you worked up.\" The rodent hung his arm around Pent to make sure he kept him as close as possible.\n\nThe fox hesitated a moment before answering. \"I'm not worked up.\"\n\n\"Are you sure about that, foxy? My smell isn't bothering you…Is it?\" The bigger teen nuzzled into his boyfriend.\n\nThe fox boy gulped a bit. \"I'm sure…\"\n\n\"You didn't answer the second part of my question, foxy…\" Xavier trailed his longest finger right under Pent's wet nose.\n\nThere was no doubt that he could smell Xavier. The chipmunk's boyish musk was strong and emanated from his body.\n Having his boyfriend smell like that was even more enticing to him. He took a deep breath as Xavier's acrid aroma filled his nostrils.\n\n\"No…it's…not…\" The fox was keeping himself from indulging willfully.\n\nGently, the rodent pushed him back against the closest wall. \"Good…I didn't think so.\"\n\nNo struggle apparent on Pent's part as he was more than happy to give in to his whims. His boyfriend was never assertive with him, as Xavier was always respectful of his boundaries. Ever since they started their relationship, he'd been mindful of Pent's insecurities. Always taking things slow and going at a pace that the more introspective fox was comfortable with. Not much had changed over the past few years, except that Pent had gotten a little more used to things with him.\n\nThe brown furred teen tilted back up so their eyes were just about level. Xavier still had a slight smirk on his face, tracing his finger along his boyfriend's collarbone. The chipmunk's touch made his body quiver a bit, but it wasn't because he didn't want it. He leaned in to kiss the smaller boy on the cheek.\n\n\"How do I smell, foxy?\" The chipmunk ran his right hand along Pent's side.\n\nThe white furred teen murmured. \"Good…\"\n\n\"Just good…are you sure you don't want more?\" Xavier made sure he was as close as possible to him so that his smell was unavoidable.\n\nPent swallowed and said in a low voice. \"What about the shower…?\"\n\n\"It can wait.\" The bigger teen began stroking Pent's arm fur to relax him a bit.\n\nThe fox looked down at the floor. \"But…your dad….\"\n\n\"Pent…I promise he won't come in. He has always respected our privacy before hasn't he?\" The chipmunk tilted up his neck again.\n\nThe smaller teen hesitated before responding. \"Yeah…he has.\"\n\nThe fox boy's smile slowly grew wider as he realized that. Xavier never forced him to do anything he didn't to. The chipmunk leaned in and gave him another kiss, this time on the lips. His passionate embrace remaining for a few seconds. Pent was all too keen to return the kiss with one of his own. Finally letting himself go a bit more, he took a much more audible smell of Xavier's boyish aroma.\n\nTugging on him gently, Xavier took him over to his bed. He wasn't worried about getting the sheets dirty. All he cared about at the moment was his boyfriend. The request his father had made fell to the back of his mind. Sitting down, he crossed one of his legs so that his paw was over his knee.\n\n\"Hey, Pent…I need some help with my socks. Do you mind?\" Xavier kept that big, toothy grin on his face.\n\nThe fox rolled his eyes a bit. \"Really, Xae?\"\n\n\"Please? My paws hurt…I could really use a foot rub.\" The chipmunk knew his boyfriend needed a bit of incentive.\n\nThe white furred teen slowly got down in front of him. \"Alright….\"\n\nThe chipmunk wiggled his toes a bit inside his socks. Pent was now centimeters away from his paws. His socks were dirty with signs of both dirt and grass stains on them. Xavier was certain they were ripe…something he knew his boyfriend would enjoy. He flexed his paw a bit so that it completely hung over his knee. Slowly, the fox began easing himself close enough so that he could take hold of it.\n\nThe moment he was close enough, Xavier adjusted his paw so that it was upright. Sliding it forward, he pushed it right against Pent's nose. The fox wasn't expecting it as he felt it press against his snout. He stopped himself suddenly and looked up at Xavier as if seeking his approval.\n\n\"Go on, foxy…I know you want to. I bet it smells nice.\" The chipmunk lightly pinched Pent's nose between two of his toes so he couldn't get away as easily.\n\nBreathing slowly, Pent continued through his mouth, stopping short of indulging. The rodent knew he had always been hesitant about his vice. Very little had changed about that. He needed a way to get his boyfriend to give in, even if just a little. Xavier moved his paw away, deciding to tease him a bit. Tugging at the somewhat moist sock before throwing it onto Pent's lap.\n\n\"Guess I won't be needing this…Can you rub my paws, please?\" Xavier figured he knew just the way to get his boyfriend to let his guard down.\n\nThe fox teen looked at his boyfriend's paw. His fur was just as matted from sweat down there. Xavier knew he was looking at it, considering his next move. The chipmunk wiggles his toes, causing a small blade of grass to fall from between them. After a moment more of hesitation and consideration, Pent reached forward, taking hold of the chipmunk's bare paw. The bigger boy looked down at him with a soft smile and gave him a slight nod.\n\nPlacing it between both of his hands, Pent started squeezing and rubbing his boyfriend's bare paw. Xavier leaned back a bit, though not much, since he was far removed from the headboard of his bed. The fox began stroking each of his toes and massaging them before running his hand underneath the other teen's paw pads. The brown furred teen giggled a bit as his boyfriend touched against one of his ticklish spots.\n\n\"Hey…no fair…\" Xavier squirmed a bit.\n\nThe fox teen lightly smiled at him. \"You started it…\"\n\n\"Oh, I did? I'm the one rubbing my boyfriend's paws?\" The chipmunk straightened himself up again.\n\nPent stopped for a moment. \"Sorry, I didn't mean to. Do you want me to stop?\"\n\n\"No, please don't stop. I'm just joking around. It feels really good.\" Xavier splayed his toes a bit more.\n\nThe white furred teen turned his attention back to the other boys foot. Pent was slow and methodic with his touching and rubbing. He'd only gotten even more skillfull over the last few years. He knew exactly what Xavier liked. Being that close to the other teen's paw, he couldn't help but inadvertently smell it. Xavier's paw smell was much stronger than usual and the aroma of boyish musk exuded from it.\n\nThe chipmunk loved it when his boyfriend showed attention to his paws. Soon, he plopped his other foot onto Pent's lap. It was still draped in the dirty sock, placed inconspicuously close to his bits.\n\n\"Xae…\" The fox noticed how close it was to his boyhood.\n\nThe rodent gave him a coy look. \"What? I'm not doing anything. I just want you to rub my other foot.\"\n\nPent let go of his boyfriend's other paw, and both of them placed on his lap now. Just as he was about to grab it, Xavier lifted the socked one to his nose again.\n\n\"Just a little sniffy sniff Pent.\" The chipmunk pinched the other teen's nose between his toes again.\n\nThe fox once again hesitated. Part of him still thought it was weird, even if they had done it before.\n\n\"Please?\" Xavier said with his best innocent puppy dog look.\n\nThis single request was all the fox needed to finally give in. Allowing himself to breathe through his nose again, Pent took a single elongated sniff. There was no doubt he'd been wanting to do it. It had been on the back of his mind, even despite his inhibition. Xavier's boyish musk flowed into his nostrils. The chipmunk could feel a slight push of air as he exhaled. He knew he had won…\n\n\"Good boy…\" The chipmunk kept his paw right where it was.\n\nPent took one of his hands and cupped it underneath where his boyfriend's paw was. Taking a much more audible whiff, the fox breathed in more and more of the chipmunk's pheromones. Xavier's smell was acrid and rich with an earthen scent to it, mixed from the dirt and grass he'd played in earlier. It didn't take long before Pent's rocket began to rise in his pants, and his boyfriend noticed it almost immediately.\n\nXavier edged himself forward on the bed and gently pushed Pent back onto the floor. Keeping him just under his socked paw to make sure he kept breathing it in. The fox's skin underneath his fur brightened red in color as he took longer and more willfull inhalations of it. With each indulgence his arousal continued to grow. Xavier was getting worked up as well, seeing his boyfriend give in was enough to get him in the mood.\n\nWith his bare paw, Xavier began to fiddle with Pent's tented member. The fox was fully erect now, and he could feel his hardness even through the fabric of his pants. \n\n\"Take 'em off, Pent. I wanna make you feel good…\" Xavier said with a soft tone.\n\nThe fox nodded and began to pull down his pants. He was already way too far gone to decline the request. He wanted more of whatever Xavier wanted to do. Following with his boxers, he shoved both of them down to his knees. The chipmunk smiled at him as he placed his foot right on top of Pent's red rocket. The flesh twitched a bit as he rubbed it lightly between the space between two of his paw pads.\n\n\"Like this, Pent?\" The rodent said with his usual toothy grin on his face.\n\nRolling back his eyes in his head, the white furred teen let out a soft sigh of delight. Having Xavier rub his foot against his bits was more than he could handle. The rough sensation of his paw pads in combination with his somewhat matted fur created friction along his shaft and knot. The chipmunk knew he was getting to him as he fit the engorged flesh between his toes and continued to rub on it. Xavier smirked at him as he continued rub his cock with his paw.\n\nPent moaned as a small dribble of saliva seeped out from his mouth. He was completely lost in the moment. His loins were tingling, wanting more attention. Xavier continued a slow, methodical pacing, feeding his member through his digits. The fox could feel himself getting ever closer to his limit. He knew he wouldn't last much longer if his boyfriend kept up like this. The smaller teen leaned back and arched his back a bit.\n\nThe fox let out a short whine before he finally exploded. Several jets of cum exploded from his tip. Flowing out from within and bursting all over the top of Xavier's paw. A wider smile grew around the chipmunk's face as he was more than satisfied that he'd indulged the other teen's vice. Slowly, he retracted his foot, not seeming to be bothered by the fact that the sticky fluid was now caked within his fur.\n\nThe\n smaller boy lay there idly for a moment, still in a state of bliss. It took him a few seconds to come around. Slowly, he sat up and pulled himself upright so he could face Xavier. The chipmunk's toothy grin looked at him in a lurid way. His own flesh was tented through the thin fabric of his lacrosse pants. Pent smiled at him briefly before positioning himself so that he was directly in front of it. Slowly, Xavier eased himself forward so that his boyfriend could have better access to his bits if he wanted.\n\nThe white furred teen wasn't about to leave him hanging. Pent began to tug on the other boy's pants. They were loose-fitting, so they were easy enough to remove. Now staring at naught but the chipmunk's tented boxers. The purple and green striped fabric was tighter fitting than his own, as Xavier chose to wear such things on sporting days. The chipmunk light rubbed him on the head affectionately.\n\nSlowly, Pent moved forward, placing both of his hands on his boyfriend's thighs. Kneading them for a second, he rubbed his fingers around in circles. Xavier closed his eyes as he completely trusted the other teen. There was no ruining this moment for either of them. Centimeter by centimeter, the fox's method and soft touch grazed ever closer to the rodent's groin. The moment he finally hit it, the chipmunk let out a soft sigh.\n\n\"That feels nice, Pent.\" The rodent did not open his eyes and relaxed even further back.\n\nHesitating for a moment, Pent considered his next move. He and Xavier had done enough in the past that he knew what he liked. The fox wanted to try something new and lurched his head forward before licking a single time against the fabric of the chipmunk's somewhat moist boxers.\n\n\"Oh…jeez…Pent…\" Xavier wasn't expecting that, and the sudden cool touch against his bits was a lot to bear.\n\nThe smaller teen looked up at his boyfriend to make sure he was alright with it. The brown furred boy had a big grin on his face. It was evident he was enjoying it. So slowly, he extended his tongue and dragged it along the length of Xavier's fabric enclosed member.\n\n\"Mmmph…man…\" The chipmunk gripped the sheet of the bed to better deal with the sensation he was experiencing.\n\nPent rotated his tongue so it was on the other side of his boyfriend's flesh. With each touch, the warmth of it seemed to increase. Already Xavier's cock was pulsating. He could feel his heartbeat steadily increase the longer he stayed down there. The fox once again lathered his tongue along the perimeter of the other teen's tapered bits. A cool, moist fabric only spread further across Xavier's groin, making him start to tingle.\n\n\"P-pent…\" The brown furred teen moaned lightly as the pleasure was ever-increasing in his nether region.\n\nThe fox wanted to make him feel even better. After all, Xavier had always been good to him, and he loved the other boy. He continued to lick around the chipmunk's member. Fidgeting, the chipmunk was fighting the desire to bust. He wanted this to last as long as possible, but Pent's continued attention down there was making it difficult. His hands remained gently behind the fox boy's head as if intent on keeping him there.\n\nXavier curled his toes as he squealed ever so lightly. He knew that Pent was driving him ever closer to his limit. Already the entirety of his cock was throbbing with anticipation. Pent suddenly kissed the tip of his tapered bits. Even if it was still through the fabric of his boxers, it was enough to send him over the edge. His member twitched a few times before ultimate exploding a few quick squirts of cum into his underwear.\n\nPent could feel a sudden rush of warmth spreading around Xavier's tip. Some of it seeped through the underwear. Just enough for him to get a light taste of the salty fluid. Gently pulling himself back, the smaller fox looked up. The rodent's face was one of stupefied satisfaction. It was evident he'd enjoyed himself. He couldn't help but be happy that he had pleased the other teen. Slowly, Pent eased himself and sat next to his boyfriend.\n\nIt took Xavier a few minutes before he came around. As they were settling down, there was a knock at the teen's door. \n\n\"I don't know why your not in the shower…but get in there now.\" His father reminded them of the order he made earlier.\n\nFortunately, the older male did not step through the door and discover their state. The sudden, abrupt noise caused both of them to freeze and snap out of whatever remained of their stupor.\n\n\"I'm going to take a shower so he doesn't actually come through the door…\" Xavier suggested that since he was the dirtier of the two boys.\n\nThe fox teen nodded. \"Alright, I'll wait here.\"\n\n\"Be right back. I won't be long.\" The brown furred boy wiped the bottom of his foot with his sock and began to tread back to the bathroom.\n\nOne after the other, both of the boys went into the bathroom to wash themselves. Xavier allowed Pent to use his clothes since he hadn't brought a change for himself. It wasn't much of an issue since they wore the same size. When they were done, the fox and chipmunk made their way into the kitchen. They could smell the scent of food and were certain that dinner was ready. Surprisingly, they found a meal ready for them on the table with a note from Xavier's father.\n\n\"I had to go out and deal with something. You're mother will be home to take Pent home soon.\" \n\nOn the table in front of them was some pasta and veggies. After all, Xavier had spent a lot of energy playing lacrosse, and both of them were fond of it. They sat down together and began eating. The chipmunk was quieter than usual and wasn't saying much. Pent began to wonder what he might be thinking about.\n\n\"Is something bothering you?\" The fox asked after a few moments.\n\nThe bigger boy shook his head. \"Huh? Oh…nah. I just hope he doesn't suspect anything.\"\n\n\"I don't think he does, but it would be weird if he confronted you about it even if he did.\" Pent used common sense to settle the other teen.\n\nThe brown furred teen scratched the back of his head. \"Yeah…that's not a conversation I want to have with them.\"\n\nThey finished dinner before long, and the two of them cleaned up together. Xavier seldom left a mess behind, and with his boyfriend around, he was more responsible. It wasn't much longer after they were done that Xavier's mother came through the front door. The woman had a longer day at work and had gotten home late. She had been told previously by her husband that she'd be taking the fox boy home.\n\n\"Pent, it's time to go home.\" She called from the living room, not even bothering to check on them.\n\nThe two of them returned to the living room holding hands. Pent was still wearing Xavier's clothes and carrying a bag of his own. It wasn't the first time he'd done this before, so she didn't think to question it. The smaller boy leaned in to hug and kiss his boyfriend. The two of them shared a passionate embrace before finally letting go. She smiled at her son before telling him that she'd be back shortly.\n\nThe woman took him home, and not much was said between them. Pent was usually quiet, in addition to being tired from the day. In the back of his mind, the fox was feeling a little guilty for indulging in his vice. It was still something he wasn't proud of, even if his boyfriend supported it. Still, he felt good about making the other teen feel good, even if he had taken it a bit further than he intended to. \n\nOnce Pent was returned home, he thanked her for again toting him around. He grabbed his bag and was on his way. Letting himself inside, he found Samaliel in the front room. The younger fox was still playing games.\n\n\"You're home late.\" The salt and pepper cub said as he looked over his shoulder.\n\nPent closed the door behind him. \"Yeah, Xavier's mom got home late.\"\n\n\"I'm surprised they didn't just let you sleep over.\" The younger fox turned his attention back to the game.\n\nThe white furred teen shrugged. \"It's a school day. I didn't ask.\" \n\n\"Did you have fun?\" The smaller boy asked shortly.\n\nThe older teen crossed behind him. \"Yeah. He's excited about the upcoming game against the school team.\"\n\n\"Do you think they will win?\" Samaliel was curious since he'd heard about it.\n\nThe bigger fox nodded. \"I hope so. I don't want him to lose. He's been talking about beating them for a while.\"\n\n\"Only time will tell. It's only in a few days. You won't have to wait long to find out.\" The younger fox planned on going to the game as well.\n\nPent rotated just behind him. \"Finish up, please. It's late.\"\n\nMoving past the room, the white furred teen assumed his brother would obey the request. Deciding to change into his pajamas, he stripped down in his room and placed Xavier's stuff in his bag for tomorrow to give to him. It wasn't much longer before Samaliel returned to the room. It was pretty late out, and the older fox was already tired. Still, that wouldn't stop him from reading even if just for a little while.\n\n\"Pent, can I go to the Autumn Haydown?\" His brother asked abruptly as he was getting a book.\n\nThe bigger teen looked over his shoulder again. \"The what?\"\n\n\"The haydown. You know where they take you out for a hay ride on a tractor.\" Samaliel decided to hide some of the information from his older brother.\n\nThe older fox arched his eyebrow. \"Why? You've never expressed interest in it before.\"\n\n\"Dakota is going. I want to go with her.\" The salt and pepper boy said sheepishly.\n\nPent considered it for a moment. \"I don't see why not.\"\n\n\"Thanks, It's on Friday. It's free. They will pick us up from school and drop us off after.\" The younger boy showed him a flyer about it.\n\nTaking it into his paw, the bigger boy read through it briefly. The details were innocent enough. A simple hay ride into an agricultural field. But at the end, there was a mention of a \"Hoedown.\" Pent was familiar enough with what it was. He knew all too well it was a dance. He\n looked at it briefly before gazing back at Samaliel. The younger boy had an innocent look to him, but his brother had intuitions that there was more to it. Still, he dropped the issue and let it go.\n\nThe older fox handed him back the paper. Samaliel was relieved that the older boy didn't ask him anymore about it. Part of Samaliel felt guilty but he wasn't quite ready to talk about his real reason for wanting to go. However, his brother was not naïve and was already suspecting something was up. Pent wasn't one to be pushy and figured his brother would talk about it when he was ready.\n\n Getting into bed, Pent pulled his book along with him and started to read. Losing himself in the book before long. His brother climbed the ladder and retired to bed. The rest of their night was a quiet one for the two boys. As usual the older boy kissed his brothers forehead before finally resting himself. Both of them eager for the next day, Pent even more so ever keen to see Xavier show the school team who was boss.

It had been several days since the concert. The band had completed their residency and had left town. All signs of Alvin and the Chipmunks posters had been taken down and replaced by whatever other groups were coming in the future. Things had returned to normal for the two teens, except that the young chipmunk's Lacrosse team had entered the postseason. They had played well enough that they qualified for the playoffs.

Xavier woke up early that morning, as he had been doing more often than not of late. Setting his alarm an hour before his usual wake-up time. Of course, he'd told his parents about it. They usually got up earlier than he did, but he didn't want them to think he was doing anything nefarious. They weren't surprised when he told them he wanted to get up early to practice, especially on game or training day.

That particular day was a practice day for the young teen. He got out of bed and rubbed his eyes as the alarm clock buzzed in his room. Briefly looking outside, he could see that it was still dark outside. Only a few street lights could be seen with a single fur out for their morning run. Xavier didn't recognize them but he felt certain that they were likely a member of the community where he lived.

The rodent slowly eased himself out of his bed. Nearby he had placed one of the plushes that Pent had given him. The fox boy had insisted he had one too, and Xavier didn't mind placating his boyfriend.  He got up and slowly padded over to his wardrobe. His drawers were organized by type with his sporting stuff set in second rung to the top. Opening it so he could grab himself a pair of sweat pants and a thin long sleeved shirt.

Xavier changed out of his pajamas and into his training gear. The stuff was somewhat big on him since he was between sizes. He rolled up the cuffs of the sleeves and pants so they didn't hang on him as much. Sliding on some socks and shoes, he began to make his way. The chipmunk didn't bother turning on the lights as he lightly moved through the house. He heard no movement so he assumed his parents were still asleep.

The chipmunk teen headed outside, lightly closing the door behind him so it didn't make any noise. It was a little brisk that day and a light breeze blew through the area, which made him glad he had dressed a bit warmer. Going around the back of the building to the rear portion of it. His parents had set up a small shack where they kept stuff and much of Xavier's sports stuff was kept inside.

The door was always kept open to the small shack. The old wooden shed had no lock on it since the family kept nothing valuable inside. Rifling through it, the teen looked for his Lacrosse stuff. His lacrosse stick, balls, and net were all placed in the corner.  He took it out, bringing it into the more open area of his backyard. The teen set it up near the back right next to the fence so the wood would act as a backstop for any balls that went awry.

 Previously he had set up a bullseye chart on the fence so that he could practice his aim. Xavier was more than adept at shooting towards any part of the target but he did it anyways. The chipmunk pulled backward and began practicing his shooting and passing skills. Not having anymore to toss the ball back at him meant he had to fetch his balls when he ran out. Fortunately he had a good few of them so he didn't have to do it very frequently.

Xavier proceeded to practice for the next hour as he rocketed ball after ball toward the net or target. His aim was impeccable and he only missed twice when he tried to repel the ball off one of the metal bars of the net. He practiced a few trick shots but none of them were flambuoyant in nature. He was much more interested in getting goals or hitting a specific area of the target then showing off, at least when his boyfriend wasn't around.

His mother was the first one out to check on him as she was the earlier riser of his two parents.The woman stepped outside, still in her bed robe. She wasn't too surprised that he was practicing. Xavier had always taken lacrosse seriously and little had changed of his work ethic toward the sport.  She approached him but didn't get to close to avoid being hit with the stick.

"I made you some breakfast when you're ready." She said with a soft tone.

He didn't look back at her. "Just a few more."

"It's almost time for school, honey. Please finish up." The older woman wasn't always firm with him, so he knew when she meant business.

Xavier tossed one more ball inside the net. "Okay, Mom."

"Clean up and breakfast will be ready for you inside." His mother sad before turning around to head back inside.

The chipmunk teen, as he was told. Putting the stuff back away in the shed before closing it. Heading back inside, he wiped his forehead of a few beads of sweat. He hadn't worked up much of a sweat, but his body was still heated up. Once he was back inside, the air conditioning caused his body to shiver. His body didn't take long to adjust since his parents didn't keep it that cool in the fall.

Making his way back to the kitchen, he saw some pancakes and syrup ready for him on the counter. His father greeted him but said nothing else as the older male pushed passed his son. Xavier grabbed himself some juice and sat down. The teens mother returned before long to the area with a wash rag in her hand.

"Here…you're a sweaty mess. Please wash up before I take you to school." She handed it to the boy.

The rodent boy looked up at her before taking it. "Alright, I will."

He began to dig into the meal. It was a hearty breakfast, and the syrup was rather rich in flavor. The older woman passed him an apple on her way back out of the kitchen. Xavier nibbled on it a bit as the wet rag. He could smell the soap on it and quickly wiped it once over his forehead. Figuring he didn't need to spend much effort on it since he didn't think it was that bad. Xavier finished his meal and wiped a bit more of the sweat off his fur. The soapy and damp cloth left his fur a bit moist, but it was nothing he couldn't deal with.

Once he was done cleaning up, he returned to his room to get read for school. Stripping out of his clothes changing into his school uniform. The stuff clothes sticked a bit to his body but he quickly shook it off. His mother soon called from down the hall to him telling her son that she was ready to head out. Xavier was just finishing up in slipping into the longer cotton socks and stiffer shoes and he hopped down the hall as he kicked them on.

His mother handed him his book bag and held the door open for him. Soon the two of them made their way out of the home. The wind had picked up a bit as it was now gusting through the area. It was strong enough that the trees and bushes around them could be seen swaying back and forth. They made their way back to the woman's car, both of them getting inside it and buckling in. Xavier tossed his bag on his lap and waited patiently.

The trip over to the school took a bit longer than usual. The two of them hit traffic when they came across a wreck. It was nothing serious but a collision always amounted to some degree of rubber necking. Fortunately, they had left early enough that they were able to get past it without much stress. A traffic cop helped to redirect traffic and it made things smoother than they might have otherwise been.

They arrived to the school before long. It was somewhat later and more students had already arrived. Xavier waved to his mother and picked up his bag before heading out to the school yard. The chipmunk had cooled down now and his body was no longer sweaty as much of it had absorbed into his body. The teen walked back to the rear portion of the school, hoping to find his boyfriend still waiting for him.

Of course, like the bookworm he was the fox had his nose in yet another science book. The rodent slowly crept up on him before standing overtop him.

"Hey, foxy, how are you?" The brown furred boy said in a soft tone.

Pent placed his book down on his lap. "Hey, Xae. I'm good. How are you?"

"I'm alright. Sorry that I'm late. We went past a wreck on the way to school." The bigger boy sat next to his boyfriend.

The fox teen smiled at him. "It's not a problem. It's not like there's anything you could have done about it anyway."

Xavier looked at the book briefly. "What'cha reading?"

The smaller boy showed him the book. "It's about volcanic processes in magma chambers."

"That sounds interesting. What got you interested in that?" The rodent placed his bag on the ground.

The white furred boy hummed. "Mr. Bernard suggested that I might be interested in it and loaned me a book about it."

"Neat. Do you want to come to practice today? We are getting ready for the big game against the school. Maybe the coach will let you participate again." Xavier suggested as he liked to play with the fox boy, even if he wasn't great at the sport.

Pent nodded. "Yeah, my foster mother doesn't care. I told Samaliel that I was going with you after school."

"Cool, one of my parents will take us there and drop you off when it's over. Maybe we can get dinner too." The chipmunk had worked out the entire plan in his head.

The smaller boy gently leaned on his boyfriend. "That sounds good. I can't wait."

The brown furred boy draped his arms over the other teen. They remained like that for a short while until the warning bell rang. They didn't have as long together that morning since Xavier had gotten there later than usual. Joining hands, they made their way inside, going through the back doors that led through the school. Passing by Santiago and some of the other older students, who paid them no heed.

They stopped by Xavier's class first before they separated. Some of the other students eyed them warily but said nothing as it was a normal occurrence now. The chipmunk waved to his boyfriend as he waited to be let into
 his first class. His early classes were slower than usual. Xavier's anticipation for practice only made the wait even more palpable. Fortunately for him, most of the assignments were reviews since the school was more involved in the local youth sports scene.

The secondary school had several sports that it offered with the only one offered off campus being hockey. Lacrosse was far from the most popular and was only offered during the warmer months. Xavier had been a part of the private team after having shifted from the school one a few years back. The school team was still considered one of the best teams in the district, even without him on it.

The Lacrosse tournament was not the only sporting championships held that time of year. Basketball and Tennis competitions were rotated with Lacrosse. Basketball was by far the dominant sport in the fall and had the most matches. The school Basketball team was well known at the secondary level and had placed top ranked several years in a row. Lacrosse wasn't nearly as popular but the school team still did well enough.

Xavier went through his first classes as normal. Only math gave him homework, but it was an assignment he felt fairly confident in since Pent had shown him how to do it. It wasn't until Science that things mixed up a bit. The science teacher decided to announce a test, despite the upcoming tournament. It put a damper on the young chipmunk's day, though the constant thought of Lacrosse later that day lessened his disappointment.

When lunchtime rolled around, Xavier made his way through the busy halls leading towards the cafeteria. He passed by a few members of the school lacrosse team, but they said nothing to him. Many of them still treated him like a pariah, even though the moment of their history had faded into memory. The chipmunk harbored no ill will toward any of them, but he still avoided them to stay away from any potential drama.

Xavier made his way into the lunchroom. He could see Milo hanging out with Chloe again. The girl was once again draped over him. They seemed to have hit it off despite all of the rabbit's troubles with relationships in the past. The chipmunk decided not to bother them and waited in line as it moved toward the serving station. The old hippo was back serving food again, so the queue was moving quicker than lately.

As he waited, he looked around for Pent. The fox was seen nowhere, so he figured the other boy must have gone outside already. Xavier waited for his turn for food and thanked the server when he was given a tray of food. The meal that day was veggie casserole soup and some crackers. It was different than usual as the cafeteria staff was trying to mix up the variety. The chipmunk was more than glad that something different was being offered.

Making his way away from the serving station, the rodent looked around once again. Pent was still nowhere to be seen. The teen decided to head outside as he was more than certain his boyfriend was outside. Just as he was exiting the building, he saw someone standing in front of the tree where he and the fox boy usually hung out. The unfamiliar buck was someone he hadn't seen before, but he sensed something was wrong.

Pent was minding his own business, waiting for his boyfriend to join him like he always did. This larger moose teen had approached him and now stood right in front of him. The much more bulky male kicked some dirt in his face.

"Where's your boyfriend, nerd?" The cervine said with a scowl on his face.

The fox looked at him briefly. "Beat it."

"Or what? Xavier isn't here to defend you, pipsqueak." The larger teen was in no mood for nonsense.

Pent rolled his eyes. "I can defend myself."

Xavier was now close enough to see what was going on. Now just a meter away.

The chipmunk grabbed the moose from behind. The rodent was a good deal smaller than the other teen but showed no sense of fear.

"Get lost." The rodent said defiantly.

The moose smirked at him. "Looky who it is. Just who I wanted."

"I don't know who you are but you need to leave. You're not welcome here." Xavier gave him a stern look.

The bigger teen cackled. "You don't need to know who I am."

The moose suddenly swung forward as he tried to hit Xavier on the side of the face, causing him to drop his food on the floor. The chipmunk was quick enough that he was able to dodge it. Stepping behind him to take him into an armlock. Xavier held him like that for a moment.

"I don't know what your problem is, but I'm not going to fight you." The smaller rodent said confidently.

The chipmunk had gotten into a few scuffles when he was young and Pent had changed his mind about conflict. Nowadays, he followed the fox boys creed of non-violence. The larger moose struggled to get out of the hold.

"Let me go or you'll regret this." The moose was making no progress in getting out.

Xavier huffed. "Only if you promise to leave us alone."

The bulkier teen nodded as he knew there was no winning this now. The smaller boy let him go before the moose walked off. Xavier watched him leave to make sure he didn't come back. The whole ordeal had only lasted a few minutes but it had disrupted their entire day. Looking down, the brown furred boy couldn't help but frown as his food had all fallen to the ground. Still, he was more concerned about his boyfriend then that at the moment.

"Are you alright, Pent?" He knelt down to get closer to the fox boy.

The white furred teen nodded at him. "Yeah, he wasn't here long. How about you?"

"I'm alright. I'm just glad he didn't hurt you. What was his problem anyways? Did he tell you who he was?" The rodent picked up some of the food from the ground in hopes of cleaning it off.

Pent noticed the food had been dirtied. "I'm not sure. He didn't say much. Do you want some of my food since yours is ruined now?"

"Are you sure? I don't want you to go hungry." Xavier said before finally taking a seat next to him.

The smaller teen nodded. "Of course. I don't want you to go hungry either. Please have some of mine."

The fox picked up some of the food and plasticware and transferred it over the chipmunk's tray. It was by no means a lot, but Pent wasn't going to let his boyfriend go without food. The two of them ate the rest of their food. Xavier was able to salvage some of the stuff though the main dish had been completely spilled out. Fortunately it was enough to tide them over at least for the time being.  The bell rang after a few minutes of them talking about nothing specific.

The rest of the school day went by like normal, with nothing out of the ordinary happening. They didn't see the moose teen again. The incident had fallen to the back of their mind, and neither of them thought to report it since it hadn't escalated beyond the initial conflict. Besides…it wasn't even like they knew who it was.

When the final bell rang for the day, Xavier made his way outside with Pent. The two of them had just finished a game of volleyball in gym class. They didn't get to participate much since the school only had a few nets. As such, the students who played were rotated so that everyone got to play a match. The chipmunk and fox were both in two games, and in the ones they weren't, they sat in the bleachers with some of the other students.

Out in front of school, clouds had begun to move in so much of the sun was obstructed. A light gale passed through the area, pushing some leaves and twigs along with it. Xavier looked up at the sky. The clouds were not grey but he hoped that the weather would not worsen. After all, he had practice and had been looking forward to it the entire day. Xavier and Pent continued their way to the car loop.

The fox stopped by the bus roundabout to make sure his brother had a good day. Samaliel was hanging out with Nait and Dakota. He'd been hanging out much more frequently with both of them. Pent had noticed that lately his brother had been spending more time with the girl. He assumed something more was developing between them, but had said nothing about it. The teen figured his brother would talk about it when he was ready.

The white furred teen returned to the side of his boyfriend. Xavier was texting his parents to see if they were close. He knew that he had plenty of time to get their on time but he wanted to be early. His parents let him know they were waiting in line and to be patient. They continued to wait a few minutes as the car line fed through the loop. It was a short while until his fathers familiar sedan could be seen in the distance.

Xavier's father picked up and let both of them in the back. He had already placed the chipmunk boys equipment bag in the front so that they could sit together. The older male knew both of them preferred it this way. They buckled in and soon after the boys father made his way to the park where the private team held it's practices.

"How was school, sport?" The elder chipmunk asked his son.

Xavier gave him a thumbs up. "It was alright. I only have math homework but it's easy."

"Easy, eh? I guess you won't be needing Pent's help tonight then?" His father chuckled at his own joke.

The brown furred boy leaned forward in the seat. "No…but can he come over for dinner after practice, please?"

"Did your foster mother say it's alright, Pent?" Xavier's father rarely said no to the request anymore.

Pent shrugged. "I'll text her, but I don't think she cares."

"As long as she says yes, then he can stay." He winked at the two boys through the car's rear-view mirror.

Pulling out his phone, the fox texted his foster mother. He knew she didn't care but he still did it to follow the rules. Xavier's father began the trek from the school to the park. The distance to the park wasn't very long but with the usual traffic coming out of the school, it took longer than it would on a weekday. The private team accommodated for such things
 and the coaches allowed for staggered arrival times.

They arrived at the park before long. The usual check point at the entrance had been stream lined with a row for the private team. All Xavier's father had to do was show his team pass. It was a little voucher he could keep on the dash board for like events. The fur taking care of the station waved them through as hes potted the fairly obvious pass. They were on their way with a few other cars in front and behind them following the same route.

Following along the route that led to the red part of the park, Xavier's father continued at a slow pace. As they got ever closer to the site of the practice, Xavier asked for his gear bag. His father handed it back to him before he changed from his school gym clothes to his lacrosse gear. Handing his clothes to Pent for him to hold for the time being. Stopping short of putting on his pads and deciding they could wait until they got out of the car.

The fox stashed away Xavier's clothes in his bag for him. It didn't take much longer before they arrived at the place of the practice. The field had been freshly mowed with the grass short and the air ripe with the smell of it. Various members of the team could be seen on the field, including the two coaches who had arrived previously. Xavier's father pulled into one of the parking spots and handed his son the water bottle he'd prepared for him.

Xavier and Pent filed out of the car the moment it came to a complete stop. Not waiting for the chipmunk's old man, as both of them were excited. The fox wasn't big on Lacrosse but enjoyed doing anything that the other teen liked. The rodent knew he needed to ask one of the coaches to see if Pent could participate in passing drills. He knew the fox couldn't do any scrims since he had no protective equipment, but it was better than nothing.

Of course, the coach was fine with it, and the older otter handed the fox some of the loaner equipment they kept around. Xavier and Pent trotted off to join the rest of the team. Participating in some of the passing drills. The fox had gotten much better at the sport, but he was nothing more than a novice compared to the players on the team. Despite being at a higher tier of play now, the chipmunk boy was still the best player.

Over time the rest of the team showed up and Pent would only participate for a short time. The fox retired to the bleachers to watch his boyfriend with the teens father. The team soon began it's scrim games, a match of offense versus defense. No side would remain one the entire time but players would keep their usual roles. Every player was expected to know both sides of the ball and Xavier was adept at both offense and defense.

Practice was very intense that day. The coaches made the players do several sprints around the field before it began. Five scrimmages would ensue with each of the players expected to rotate on both sides of the ball. It was full contact except that they weren't allowed to tackle. Xavier wanted to show off to Pent and played hard. Scoring on the very first possession of the game. His boyfriend cheered him on with glee.

Things slowed down a bit after that, with the other players clamping down on defense. It was a hot day, and the players were given occasional breaks to hydrate. The scrims were highly competitive, with neither side giving much of an edge to the other. Xavier was able to score twice more, but other than him, only one other player hit the back of the net. As the sun began to go down, it started to sprinkle, and the field became muddy and slick.

As it continued to rain and the players became increasingly dirty, they were soon called in by the coach. They decided to end it as they wanted them to rest for the big game. The Sphinxes were to play the school team in a few days. The coaches held a big pow wow, urging the players to be ready for the game. It was the first game of the playoffs, and they wanted to hit things off on the right foot. Xavier was especially enthused as it would be the first time he got to play against the school team since leaving it.

The coaches dismissed them before long. Xavier had worked up quite the sweat and was cooling off on the sideline. Much of his body was littered with dirt and mud. His boyfriend had been watching him with interest the entire time. Pent had always been a good supportive member of his life and hobbies. The fox made his way over to the other teen to join him. The other players paid him no mind since they'd seen him plenty of times, and having him around was a normal occurrence.

"You played well today, Xae." The smaller teen smiled at his boyfriend.

The rodent swung his arm around the fox. "Thanks, Pent.

The smaller boy joined his arm around him as well. Xavier grabbed a bottle of water before squirting him a few times with it.

"Hey…no fair…" The fox gave him a fake grimace.

The chipmunk smiled at him and offered Pent the bottle. Gladly taking a swig of it, the two boys made a few short strides over to the team bench. Some of the other team members were still around, but they continued to mind their own business. The coaches, in the meantime, were collecting the gear left around so that they didn't leave anything in the park. The players started to leave once they had gathered their own things. It was all a bit of a rush as they wanted to get out of there before the weather got any worse.

Xavier's father called them over to let them know it was time to go. The chipmunk grabbed his stuff and both he and Pent made their way back to his father's car. His father put it in a plastic bag before he could put it inside. The white furred teen checked his phone to see if his foster mother had responded. Of course, she put in a simple response to say it was all alright. The woman was always short with him, but it was an issue that Pent never kept close to his heart or mind.

The rodent and fox filed back into the back seat after Xavier's father took his bag from him. He teen was dripping with both sweat and water. His fur was matted and his jersey was soaked. The teen was a dirty mess. It was evident the teen had overspent himself. He handed a towel to both of them so they could dry off.

"I want you to take a shower before you do anything with Pent at home. Is that clear?" His father reminded him since he knew the teen could smell quite foul at times.

Xavier nodded at him from the back seat. "Alright, Dad."

They began their trek back home. The bigger teen held his boyfriend right against his chest. Pent's nose brushed right against his jersey. He could smell the boyish musk of the other teen. It was a smell he knew all too well and one that he was rather fond of, and Xavier knew it. It was almost as if the chipmunk was tantalizing him as the brown furred teen smirked at him with his usual toothy grin. The bigger boy made sure to keep him as close as possible.

Xavier's body was warmer than usual, though it had cooled off a bit since the end of practice. Moving his hand under Pent's shirt and rubbed his midriff. Slowly he stroked his soft but somewhat wet fur. The smaller teen was all too keen to stay the way he was. The longer he did, the more of that pheromone filled musky aroma filled his nostrils. Still, he did not dig his nose into the other boy as he was afraid of being discovered by the other teens father.

The trip back to the chipmunk's house wasn't very long, even despite the weather. It continued to rain down as it trickled down slowly. Clouds completely covered the sky in a grey overcast. Xavier's father pulled into the front of their home. There were no signs of his wife's car, so he figured she was likely out and about doing errands. The chipmunk and fox teens got out of the car once it had come to a full stop.

Xavier's father tossed him the bag from the other side of the car. "Shower…now!"

His son nodded. "I will after I put my stuff in the laundry room."

"Good idea. Make sure you take your cleats off at the door. They are caked in mud. Pent…you too. No shoes for either of you…please." The older male followed behind them and made sure they followed the house rules.

Both Xavier and Pent shuffled off their shoes. Xavier's father shook out the umbrella just outside the door. The older rodent looked at their socked paws briefly. His sons were grungry and he wasn't sure the other boys feet were any better. He considered his options for a moment but before the man could say anything the two teens were gone. Fortunately it didn't seem that neither of them were trailing any dirt so he decided to let it go.

The two of them made their way to Xavier's room. The chipmunk knew he needed to grab a change of clothes before he could take a shower. Stepping inside, the brown furred boy looked at the white furred one for a moment. The fox's eyes were glazed over as if he were in a daze. Pent stared at him with a light smile on his face. The bigger teen took a step closer to him so that they were within one another's personal space.

Xavier tipped up the fox's chin a bit, looking directly into his eyes. He scratched his chin lightly.

"You're such a silly fox sometimes, you know that?" The bigger teen grinned at him with his usual toothy demeanor.

Pent arched his eyebrows in confusion. "Huh? What do you mean?"

"Nothing. It's just easy to get you worked up." The rodent hung his arm around Pent to make sure he kept him as close as possible.

The fox hesitated a moment before answering. "I'm not worked up."

"Are you sure about that, foxy? My smell isn't bothering you…Is it?" The bigger teen nuzzled into his boyfriend.

The fox boy gulped a bit. "I'm sure…"

"You didn't answer the second part of my question, foxy…" Xavier trailed his longest finger right under Pent's wet nose.

There was no doubt that he could smell Xavier. The chipmunk's boyish musk was strong and emanated from his body.
 Having his boyfriend smell like that was even more enticing to him.  He took a deep breath as Xavier's acrid aroma filled his nostrils.

"No…it's…not…" The fox was keeping himself from indulging willfully.

Gently, the rodent pushed him back against the closest wall. "Good…I didn't think so."

No struggle apparent on Pent's part as he was more than happy to give in to his whims. His boyfriend was never assertive with him, as Xavier was always respectful of his boundaries. Ever since they started their relationship, he'd been mindful of Pent's insecurities. Always taking things slow and going at a pace that the more introspective fox was comfortable with. Not much had changed over the past few years, except that Pent had gotten a little more used to things with him.

The brown furred teen tilted back up so their eyes were just about level. Xavier still had a slight smirk on his face, tracing his finger along his boyfriend's collarbone. The chipmunk's touch made his body quiver a bit, but it wasn't because he didn't want it. He leaned in to kiss the smaller boy on the cheek.

"How do I smell, foxy?" The chipmunk ran his right hand along Pent's side.

The white furred teen murmured. "Good…"

"Just good…are you sure you don't want more?" Xavier made sure he was as close as possible to him so that his smell was unavoidable.

Pent swallowed and said in a low voice. "What about the shower…?"

"It can wait." The bigger teen began stroking Pent's arm fur to relax him a bit.

The fox looked down at the floor. "But…your dad…."

"Pent…I promise he won't come in. He has always respected our privacy before hasn't he?" The chipmunk tilted up his neck again.

The smaller teen hesitated before responding. "Yeah…he has."

The fox boy's smile slowly grew wider as he realized that. Xavier never forced him to do anything he didn't to. The chipmunk leaned in and gave him another kiss, this time on the lips. His passionate embrace remaining for a few seconds. Pent was all too keen to return the kiss with one of his own. Finally letting himself go a bit more, he took a much more audible smell of Xavier's boyish aroma.

Tugging on him gently, Xavier took him over to his bed. He wasn't worried about getting the sheets dirty. All he cared about at the moment was his boyfriend. The request his father had made fell to the back of his mind. Sitting down, he crossed one of his legs so that his paw was over his knee.

"Hey, Pent…I need some help with my socks. Do you mind?" Xavier kept that big, toothy grin on his face.

The fox rolled his eyes a bit. "Really, Xae?"

"Please? My paws hurt…I could really use a foot rub." The chipmunk knew his boyfriend needed a bit of incentive.

The white furred teen slowly got down in front of him. "Alright…."

The chipmunk wiggled his toes a bit inside his socks. Pent was now centimeters away from his paws. His socks were dirty with signs of both dirt and grass stains on them. Xavier was certain they were ripe…something he knew his boyfriend would enjoy. He flexed his paw a bit so that it completely hung over his knee. Slowly, the fox began easing himself close enough so that he could take hold of it.

The moment he was close enough, Xavier adjusted his paw so that it was upright. Sliding it forward, he pushed it right against Pent's nose.  The fox wasn't expecting it as he felt it press against his snout. He stopped himself suddenly and looked up at Xavier as if seeking his approval.

"Go on, foxy…I know you want to. I bet it smells nice." The chipmunk lightly pinched Pent's nose between two of his toes so he couldn't get away as easily.

Breathing slowly, Pent continued through his mouth, stopping short of indulging. The rodent knew he had always been hesitant about his vice. Very little had changed about that. He needed a way to get his boyfriend to give in, even if just a little. Xavier moved his paw away, deciding to tease him a bit. Tugging at the somewhat moist sock before throwing it onto Pent's lap.

"Guess I won't be needing this…Can you rub my paws, please?" Xavier figured he knew just the way to get his boyfriend to let his guard down.

The fox teen looked at his boyfriend's paw. His fur was just as matted from sweat down there. Xavier knew he was looking at it, considering his next move. The chipmunk wiggles his toes, causing a small blade of grass to fall from between them. After a moment more of hesitation and consideration, Pent reached forward, taking hold of the chipmunk's bare paw.  The bigger boy looked down at him with a soft smile and gave him a slight nod.

Placing it between both of his hands, Pent started squeezing and rubbing his boyfriend's bare paw. Xavier leaned back a bit, though not much, since he was far removed from the headboard of his bed. The fox began stroking each of his toes and massaging them before running his hand underneath the other teen's paw pads. The brown furred teen giggled a bit as his boyfriend touched against one of his ticklish spots.

"Hey…no fair…" Xavier squirmed a bit.

The fox teen lightly smiled at him. "You started it…"

"Oh, I did? I'm the one rubbing my boyfriend's paws?" The chipmunk straightened himself up again.

Pent stopped for a moment. "Sorry, I didn't mean to. Do you want me to stop?"

"No, please don't stop. I'm just joking around. It feels really good." Xavier splayed his toes a bit more.

The white furred teen turned his attention back to the other boys foot. Pent was slow and methodic with his touching and rubbing. He'd only gotten even more skillfull over the last few years. He knew exactly what Xavier liked. Being that close to the other teen's paw, he couldn't help but inadvertently smell it. Xavier's paw smell was much stronger than usual and the aroma of boyish musk exuded from it.

The chipmunk loved it when his boyfriend showed attention to his paws. Soon, he plopped his other foot onto Pent's lap. It was still draped in the dirty sock, placed inconspicuously close to his bits.

"Xae…" The fox noticed how close it was to his boyhood.

The rodent gave him a coy look. "What? I'm not doing anything. I just want you to rub my other foot."

Pent let go of his boyfriend's other paw, and both of them placed on his lap now. Just as he was about to grab it, Xavier lifted the socked one to his nose again.

"Just a little sniffy sniff Pent." The chipmunk pinched the other teen's nose between his toes again.

The fox once again hesitated. Part of him still thought it was weird, even if they had done it before.

"Please?" Xavier said with his best innocent puppy dog look.

This single request was all the fox needed to finally give in. Allowing himself to breathe through his nose again, Pent took a single elongated sniff. There was no doubt he'd been wanting to do it. It had been on the back of his mind, even despite his inhibition. Xavier's boyish musk flowed into his nostrils. The chipmunk could feel a slight push of air as he exhaled. He knew he had won…

"Good boy…" The chipmunk kept his paw right where it was.

Pent took one of his hands and cupped it underneath where his boyfriend's paw was. Taking a much more audible whiff, the fox breathed in more and more of the chipmunk's pheromones. Xavier's smell was acrid and rich with an earthen scent to it, mixed from the dirt and grass he'd played in earlier. It didn't take long before Pent's rocket began to rise in his pants, and his boyfriend noticed it almost immediately.

Xavier edged himself forward on the bed and gently pushed Pent back onto the floor. Keeping him just under his socked paw to make sure he kept breathing it in. The fox's skin underneath his fur brightened red in color as he took longer and more willfull inhalations of it. With each indulgence his arousal continued to grow. Xavier was getting worked up as well, seeing his boyfriend give in was enough to get him in the mood.

With his bare paw, Xavier began to fiddle with Pent's tented member. The fox was fully erect now, and he could feel his hardness even through the fabric of his pants.

"Take 'em off, Pent. I wanna make you feel good…" Xavier said with a soft tone.

The fox nodded and began to pull down his pants. He was already way too far gone to decline the request. He wanted more of whatever Xavier wanted to do. Following with his boxers, he shoved both of them down to his knees. The chipmunk smiled at him as he placed his foot right on top of Pent's red rocket. The flesh twitched a bit as he rubbed it lightly between the space between two of his paw pads.

"Like this, Pent?" The rodent said with his usual toothy grin on his face.

Rolling back his eyes in his head, the white furred teen let out a soft sigh of delight. Having Xavier rub his foot against his bits was more than he could handle. The rough sensation of his paw pads in combination with his somewhat matted fur created friction along his shaft and knot. The chipmunk knew he was getting to him as he fit the engorged flesh between his toes and continued to rub on it. Xavier smirked at him as he continued rub his cock with his paw.

Pent moaned as a small dribble of saliva seeped out from his mouth. He was completely lost in the moment. His loins were tingling, wanting more attention. Xavier continued a slow, methodical pacing, feeding his member through his digits. The fox could feel himself getting ever closer to his limit. He knew he wouldn't last much longer if his boyfriend kept up like this. The smaller teen leaned back and arched his back a bit.

The fox let out a short whine before he finally exploded. Several jets of cum exploded from his tip. Flowing out from within and bursting all over the top of Xavier's paw. A wider smile grew around the chipmunk's face as he was more than satisfied that he'd indulged the other teen's vice. Slowly, he retracted his foot, not seeming to be bothered by the fact that the sticky fluid was now caked within his fur.

The
 smaller boy lay there idly for a moment, still in a state of bliss. It took him a few seconds to come around. Slowly, he sat up and pulled himself upright so he could face Xavier. The chipmunk's toothy grin looked at him in a lurid way. His own flesh was tented through the thin fabric of his lacrosse pants. Pent smiled at him briefly before positioning himself so that he was directly in front of it. Slowly, Xavier eased himself forward so that his boyfriend could have better access to his bits if he wanted.

The white furred teen wasn't about to leave him hanging. Pent began to tug on the other boy's pants. They were loose-fitting, so they were easy enough to remove. Now staring at naught but the chipmunk's tented boxers. The purple and green striped fabric was tighter fitting than his own, as Xavier chose to wear such things on sporting days. The chipmunk light rubbed him on the head affectionately.

Slowly, Pent moved forward, placing both of his hands on his boyfriend's thighs. Kneading them for a second, he rubbed his fingers around in circles. Xavier closed his eyes as he completely trusted the other teen. There was no ruining this moment for either of them. Centimeter by centimeter, the fox's method and soft touch grazed ever closer to the rodent's groin. The moment he finally hit it, the chipmunk let out a soft sigh.

"That feels nice, Pent."  The rodent did not open his eyes and relaxed even further back.

Hesitating for a moment, Pent considered his next move. He and Xavier had done enough in the past that he knew what he liked. The fox wanted to try something new and lurched his head forward before licking a single time against the fabric of the chipmunk's somewhat moist boxers.

"Oh…jeez…Pent…" Xavier wasn't expecting that, and the sudden cool touch against his bits was a lot to bear.

The smaller teen looked up at his boyfriend to make sure he was alright with it. The brown furred boy had a big grin on his face. It was evident he was enjoying it. So slowly, he extended his tongue and dragged it along the length of Xavier's fabric enclosed member.

"Mmmph…man…" The chipmunk gripped the sheet of the bed to better deal with the sensation he was experiencing.

Pent rotated his tongue so it was on the other side of his boyfriend's flesh. With each touch, the warmth of it seemed to increase. Already Xavier's cock was pulsating. He could feel his heartbeat steadily increase the longer he stayed down there. The fox once again lathered his tongue along the perimeter of the other teen's tapered bits. A cool, moist fabric only spread further across Xavier's groin, making him start to tingle.

"P-pent…" The brown furred teen moaned lightly as the pleasure was ever-increasing in his nether region.

The fox wanted to make him feel even better. After all, Xavier had always been good to him, and he loved the other boy. He continued to lick around the chipmunk's member. Fidgeting, the chipmunk was fighting the desire to bust. He wanted this to last as long as possible, but Pent's continued attention down there was making it difficult. His hands remained gently behind the fox boy's head as if intent on keeping him there.

Xavier curled his toes as he squealed ever so lightly. He knew that Pent was driving him ever closer to his limit. Already the entirety of his cock was throbbing with anticipation. Pent suddenly kissed the tip of his tapered bits. Even if it was still through the fabric of his boxers, it was enough to send him over the edge. His member twitched a few times before ultimate exploding a few quick squirts of cum into his underwear.

Pent could feel a sudden rush of warmth spreading around Xavier's tip. Some of it seeped through the underwear. Just enough for him to get a light taste of the salty fluid. Gently pulling himself back, the smaller fox looked up. The rodent's face was one of stupefied satisfaction. It was evident he'd enjoyed himself. He couldn't help but be happy that he had pleased the other teen.  Slowly, Pent eased himself and sat next to his boyfriend.

It took Xavier a few minutes before he came around. As they were settling down, there was a knock at the teen's door.

"I don't know why your not in the shower…but get in there now." His father reminded them of the order he made earlier.

Fortunately, the older male did not step through the door and discover their state. The sudden, abrupt noise caused both of them to freeze and snap out of whatever remained of their stupor.

"I'm going to take a shower so he doesn't actually come through the door…" Xavier suggested that since he was the dirtier of the two boys.

The fox teen nodded. "Alright, I'll wait here."

"Be right back. I won't be long." The brown furred boy wiped the bottom of his foot with his sock and began to tread back to the bathroom.

One after the other, both of the boys went into the bathroom to wash themselves. Xavier allowed Pent to use his clothes since he hadn't brought a change for himself. It wasn't much of an issue since they wore the same size. When they were done, the fox and chipmunk made their way into the kitchen. They could smell the scent of food and were certain that dinner was ready. Surprisingly, they found a meal ready for them on the table with a note from Xavier's father.

"I had to go out and deal with something. You're mother will be home to take Pent home soon."

On the table in front of them was some pasta and veggies. After all, Xavier had spent a lot of energy playing lacrosse, and both of them were fond of it. They sat down together and began eating. The chipmunk was quieter than usual and wasn't saying much. Pent began to wonder what he might be thinking about.

"Is something bothering you?" The fox asked after a few moments.

The bigger boy shook his head. "Huh? Oh…nah. I just hope he doesn't suspect anything."

"I don't think he does, but it would be weird if he confronted you about it even if he did." Pent used common sense to settle the other teen.

The brown furred teen scratched the back of his head. "Yeah…that's not a conversation I want to have with them."

They finished dinner before long, and the two of them cleaned up together. Xavier seldom left a mess behind, and with his boyfriend around, he was more responsible. It wasn't much longer after they were done that Xavier's mother came through the front door. The woman had a longer day at work and had gotten home late. She had been told previously by her husband that she'd be taking the fox boy home.

"Pent, it's time to go home." She called from the living room, not even bothering to check on them.

The two of them returned to the living room holding hands. Pent was still wearing Xavier's clothes and carrying a bag of his own. It wasn't the first time he'd done this before, so she didn't think to question it. The smaller boy leaned in to hug and kiss his boyfriend. The two of them shared a passionate embrace before finally letting go. She smiled at her son before telling him that she'd be back shortly.

The woman took him home, and not much was said between them. Pent was usually quiet, in addition to being tired from the day. In the back of his mind, the fox was feeling a little guilty for indulging in his vice. It was still something he wasn't proud of, even if his boyfriend supported it. Still, he felt good about making the other teen feel good, even if he had taken it a bit further than he intended to.

Once Pent was returned home, he thanked her for again toting him around. He grabbed his bag and was on his way. Letting himself inside, he found Samaliel in the front room. The younger fox was still playing games.

"You're home late." The salt and pepper cub said as he looked over his shoulder.

Pent closed the door behind him. "Yeah, Xavier's mom got home late."

"I'm surprised they didn't just let you sleep over." The younger fox turned his attention back to the game.

The white furred teen shrugged. "It's a school day. I didn't ask."

"Did you have fun?" The smaller boy asked shortly.

The older teen crossed behind him. "Yeah. He's excited about the upcoming game against the school team."

"Do you think they will win?" Samaliel was curious since he'd heard about it.

The bigger fox nodded. "I hope so. I don't want him to lose. He's been talking about beating them for a while."

"Only time will tell. It's only in a few days. You won't have to wait long to find out."  The younger fox planned on going to the game as well.

Pent rotated just behind him. "Finish up, please. It's late."

Moving past the room, the white furred teen assumed his brother would obey the request. Deciding to change into his pajamas, he stripped down in his room and placed Xavier's stuff in his bag for tomorrow to give to him. It wasn't much longer before Samaliel returned to the room. It was pretty late out, and the older fox was already tired. Still, that wouldn't stop him from reading even if just for a little while.

"Pent, can I go to the Autumn Haydown?" His brother asked abruptly as he was getting a book.

The bigger teen looked over his shoulder again. "The what?"

"The haydown. You know where they take you out for a hay ride on a tractor." Samaliel decided to hide some of the information from his older brother.

The older fox arched his eyebrow. "Why? You've never expressed interest in it before."

"Dakota is going. I want to go with her." The salt and pepper boy said sheepishly.

Pent considered it for a moment. "I don't see why not."

"Thanks, It's on Friday. It's free. They will pick us up from school and drop us off after." The younger boy showed him a flyer about it.

Taking it into his paw, the bigger boy read through it briefly. The details were innocent enough. A simple hay ride into an agricultural field. But at the end, there was a mention of a "Hoedown." Pent was familiar enough with what it was. He knew all too well it was a dance. He
 looked at it briefly before gazing back at Samaliel. The younger boy had an innocent look to him, but his brother had intuitions that there was more to it. Still, he dropped the issue and let it go.

The older fox handed him back the paper. Samaliel was relieved that the older boy didn't ask him anymore about it. Part of Samaliel felt guilty but he wasn't quite ready to talk about his real reason for wanting to go. However, his brother was not naïve and was already suspecting something was up. Pent wasn't one to be pushy and figured his brother would talk about it when he was ready.

 Getting into bed, Pent pulled his book along with him and started to read. Losing himself in the book before long. His brother climbed the ladder and retired to bed. The rest of their night was a quiet one for the two boys. As usual the older boy kissed his brothers forehead before finally resting himself. Both of them eager for the next day, Pent even more so ever keen to see Xavier show the school team who was boss.
