Damien, a 16-year-old furry fox, has lots of secrets to hide.
He wants to be open about his sexuality, but he's too afraid of other furs' reaction.
Especially for what his mother and his classmates will think about him.
He hopes to find a perso...
I woke up and felt rather... Excited.. For once. Last night was pretty successful if I say so myself. I was combing my fur when I thought of something fun I could do today.. I giggled to myself at the thought, I can't wait to tell him.. Drove to school with a mischievous chuckle. Maybe a call wouldn't hurt.

I was groggily pulling a shirt over my head when my phone went off in my jeans. I jumped and tripped over myself, still blinded from my shirt. Popped my head through the collar and fetched my phone from my pocket. I lied flat on the floor and flipped it open
- " H-Hello?..." I said with a tired voice. I didn't see who was calling so I hoped this wasn't an important call.
- " Noah!.. Don't be late this time! I have a good idea.." Damien ! I hopped up and started grabbing my things.
- "Hhm... Okay.. What's up? " I tried to sound casual. Do not show weakness infront of him..
- " Well...I know you still can't exactly... Play yet. But I don't want you to be embarrassed in front of the class.. Soo.... How about we both play at the same time? I'll lead if I have to, but I'll show something simple to start with.. How does that sound?", I could tell he was excited.
- " Hhm... I...." Should I do it?.. Nothing could go wrong, right? " Yea... That sounds cool.. I'm on my way "
- He paused " G-Good!.. Don't be late this time!.." I chuckled but he hung up before I could reply. So I grabbed the drumsticks he gave me and drove off.

Oooohhh... This is gonna be fun.. I don't know what I'm gonna do. But I'm gonna make it work. I ran into the classroom early as usual and gazed into the trap set, wondering what I'm gonna do. My thoughts were interrupted by the bell and I got a bit nervous. I saw Noah walk in quite early this time, so I waved to him to quickly get over here. Let's try to work this out.

I had... absolutely no idea what I was doing. He told me to try a simple beat with the high-hat and snare. I was still a bit confused when we started playing. I...seemed to drag the class down because well.. I wasn't doing so well. But whenever that happened, Damien giggled and took over. Speeding things back up and getting the energy back to the class. Ugh...he was too good at this. I guess you could say I was jealous.. But it didn't bother me to much because well...it was Damien By the time class ended. I lost count of how many times I lost track. Got some scowls from furs as they left the class so I lowered my ears and hung my head. Yea... Nothing could go wrong. I was about to leave when something...clung onto me from behind. I was about to go into a defensive stance when I realized who it was. I could feel myself blush a bit, but he didn't seem to care.

- " Good job!.. I'm honestly proud of you..!" He said with such enthusiasm.
It made me feel... Glad.. Like, all the looks from the other furs meant nothing.. Dammit.. I was doing it again..
- " Uhm... T-Thanks bro..." I chuckled a little and he hopped off to grab his things.
- " S-See you tomorrow..!" He stuttered. I could tell he was embarrassed.
Maybe... It is not a bad thing that I like him. Perhaps, things could work out. I smiled a bit at the thought and walked out.

Oh god...
I hope that wasn't too much.. Nah, no-one saw me.. or US...
I started to have a mini panic attack.. I hope he doesn't..HATE...me now. No. You're fine! Just... finish the day. I'll text him tonight like it didn't happen.
I got home and flopped flat on the bed. Maybe now would be a good time. I pulled out my phone and texted Noah.
"Yo. " was all I could think of.
I just wanted to make sure he was still.. Okay.. With me.
He didn't- respond so I started on homework. An hour and a half later he didn't respond. I started to get nervous. He hates me I bet.. I need to calm down...
Some Xbox wouldn't hurt? I grabbed my controller and looked through my friendlist... Hmm... Gabe was on Minecraft... Hunter was on Minecraft as well. Might as well join them. Yeah, I know.. I'm in Highschool and I still play Minecraft...Deal with it! I joined them both and was pulling out a map when I was suddenly kicked from the game. What?.. What did I do? I texted Hunter what happened. And I got a reply soon enough which made my spirits drop hard.
- "We don't want you here" was all the text said. I stood there in awe and I feared I had done something wrong.
- " Why?" Was all I sent back. Can't be anything major right? I was horribly wrong.
- " It's obvious, you are a faggot. Go away!"
W-What...? No.. Do they know...? Do they know I'm gay? They shouldn't.. I needed to confirm this.
- "What do you mean?" I sent it. And this shook me up hard. Instead of replying, they deleted me. Completely..
Fuck! No! This can't be happening! I bet the whole school knows by now. Feels like I'm going to throw up. But instead. I start crying..
Then throwing things. I even broke my Xbox, which made me feel worse about myself. This day was going so well!!! Now it's gone to shit!!! I stuffed my face into my pillow and cried for a whole hour. I was... Scared.. No, not scared, terrified. I soon cried myself to sleep without even eating dinner. And without a reply from Noah..
