It was a gloomy day in Animal Village as a small skunk sits on an old tire next to his once opened shop, Kicks. His head hangs low, shoulders weak from lack of food to support himself when he sees snow white legs and brown shoes tread the concrete in front of him. "Sir?'' the skunk said in a weak mumble with an Australian accent. The white dog's ears perked up and he turned his head to see the pathetic looking skunk. "Is there anything I could do for you...to give me some change?....'' the skunk said in a fearful tone for he was very intimidated by the canine in front of him. "Oh uh..sure here," the dog took out ten bells and tossed it lightly into the little shoe box that read ''change''. As the dog started to walk away he realized that this skunk was going to need more than ten measly bells. He turned around and said "Hey..would you like to stay with me until you get back up on your feet?" the skunk's ears perked up and he looked up at the dog and replied, "Sir that's a very big offer but..I don't want to be a burden...but thank you," the dog, a little shocked by the decline said, "No you're no trouble! It's lonely at my place..I would like company," the skunk replied, "Well...if you insist.." the skunk tried to stand up but was too weak from starvation. "Would you like me to help you walk?" the dog said and held his hand out towards the skunk. "Sure.." the skunk took his hand. The dog pulled the skunk up slowly and the skunk stood with wobbly legs. He fell and plopped back on the tire. "Sorry.." the skunk mumbled. "No need for the sorry I can just carry you." then the dog lifted the skunk up like he was air. The skunk mumbled "You didn't have to carry me.." the dog replied "It's fine. You're okay."
So the dog carried the skunk to his van and put him down in the front passenger seat. The dog got in the driver's seat as he asked, "What's your name?" the skunk replied "Kicks..." the dog smiled and said "That's a cute name." "Thanks...what's yours?'' Kicks asked. "K.K. Slider," K.K. said. "K.K.....K.K...I've heard that named before," Kicks said "I'm kind of a famous singer and guitarist. I'm pretty well known," K.K. replied. Kicks thought for a moment and said "Oh you're THE K.K. Slider..people talked about you while they were in my store...all positive." "Yep people love me pretty fast it's one of my many talents." Kicks giggled at K.K's confidence. Something about K.K. just made him feel safe. Was it his muscular body? Or was it his selflessness that made Kicks feel so safe for he knew K.K. would protect random people, even people he didn't have a connection with, which made Kicks get a very pleasant vibe from the canine.
K.K. gifted Kicks with a huge combo meal from a burger joint. The meal probably weighed more than Kicks himself but he gobbled it up and love every second of it. K.K. didn't mind Kicks sloppy way of eating he knew Kicks must of been starving and this is the first time he has even seen food in weeks. Once Kicks was finished with his meal they have already arrived to K.K.'s mansion.
"Woah..this is the biggest house I've ever seen..'' said Kicks in awe. K.K. smiled at Kicks comment and got out the car to help Kicks. "I think I can walk Mister Slider...'' Kicks said and got out the car at a turtle's pace. He started to walk a little. He resembled a baby deer who has just walked for the first time. Very wobbly and in awkward steps. When K.K. had enough of Kicks attempts to walk he scooped him up right before Kicks was about to fall. Kicks sighed. ''I was so close...'' he mumbled. K.K. chuckled. "You sure were. Just rest Kicks. Your body needs time to realize it has food,'' K.K. brought Kicks into his house and seated him on the sofa in the living room.
"Um...Mister Slider...if it isn't too much may I use your bathroom to tidy up? as you can see I'm not very...clean." K.K. looked at him. Kicks had dirt caked into his hair, he had patches of grime all over his body in dark brown, yellow, and black colors. His clothes were torn and filthy. ''Sure. But I don't think you have the strength to do that..I can do it for you." The skunk's face turned a bright red color. "O-oh M-Mister Slider y-you don't need to..." K.K. replied looking at Kicks tomato red face with a confused look and said "I think you kind of need it...you can't really walk...so I don't think you have the strength to bathe yourself.." Kicks answered "A-alright sir...'' Kicks let K.K. carry him to the bathroom and sat Kicks on the closed toilet. ''Start undressing I'm gonna get the water ready." Kicks started to undress slowly. He unbuckled his suspenders then unbuttoned his shirt. Kicks was extremely nervous about what K.K. is going to do. "Was he just being nice to rape me?!" Kicks mind yelled as he unbuttoned his pants and unzipped them as well. He slid his boots off his swollen blistered feet were visible from walking in old busted up boots. Then he finally removed his underwear, his face burning and he put his hands in front of his crotch. ''Alright you can get in the tub." Kicks obeyed and stepped in the warm water as K.K. helped him by holding kicks hip and one on his side. Kicks blushed at the touch of K.K.'s hands on his body. He sat down in the tub and K.K. bathed Kicks and was careful not to touch any areas he knew wouldn't be appropriate. Once Kicks was clean K.K. helped him out the tub and dried him off. K.K. gave him a shirt and shorts. The shorts went past kicks knees and the shirt was at his knees. Kicks was incredibly tiny. K.K. looked at the tub water, it was a dark brownish yellow color.
Kicks yawned. ''Warm water makes me sleepy...but it's so much better than cold water..I don't like cold water much..'' K.K. chuckled at Kicks's adorableness. "Well if you're tired you can sleep in the guest bedroom or with me. I'm just saying my bed is a lot better than the guest bed is." Kicks said, ''Well I can sleep with you if your bed is nice...." then K.K. scooped Kicks up and carried him up the stairs to his bedroom and laid him down. "You're right Mister Slider this bed is so soft..." Kicks began to rub his head against a pillow absorbing its coziness. Kicks began to doze off a few moments later. K.K. looked at Kicks and grinned. "He looks so cute and innocent looking. I wonder if I could.." he thought as he slid his arm under Kicks head, trying not to wake him. Kicks buried his head into K.K.'s chest while he sucked his thumb. K.K. chuckled and fell asleep holding Kicks in his arms, the safest Kicks has ever been in his life.
Kicks was the first one to wake up. He woke up and saw a dark green colored object pressed against his face. He soon realized this dark green object was just what the object was wearing. This object, wasn't even an object. It was a tall muscular, white dog with big puffy eyebrows. Who was holding him. Kicks scrambled out of K.K.'s arms with a flushed face embarrassed for his inappropriate act. "I-I'm so sorry Mister Slider! T-That was very inappropriate of me!" K.K. woke up alert and was ready to protect Kicks from who ever made him feel this guilty. But K.K. saw no one. He soon realized Kicks was saying that to him. Caught in awaking from his sleep he didn't notice Kicks was talking to him. He came to his senses and said to Kicks ''It's fine I grew up with six other siblings i don't know what personal space is." Kicks replied "B-but I just met you a-and it's inappropriate for me to do that a-and i must of made you u-uncomfort-" "Kicks." K.K. said in a calm tone "It's fine I'm not upset about it I would never get upset for something as silly as cuddling. Plus I would understand why you would cuddle me. I'm like a teddy bear." Kicks sighed in relief. "Alright Mister Slider...I won't do it again..well I'm going to go make breakfast for you." As Kicks walked away from K.K., K.K. said "Wait you don't have to do that. I can do it." Kicks said "Oh no Mister Slider you've already done so much I want to repay you." "You don't have to do that. I'm fine without repayment." K.K. said. "It's alright I want to." then Kicks walked downstairs to the kitchen without getting a reply from K.K..
Kicks came back up with a plate of blueberry pancakes, eggs that were sunny side up, and bacon. He handed the plate to K.K. and sat next to K.K.. K.K. started to eat. "Woah how do you cook so good. This is really good!" K.K. said in the middle of eating. "Oh just practice.." Kicks said bashfully, "Well I'm off to do some chores." Kicks got off the bed and stood up. "What no you don't have to. You're not responsible for that." K.K. said with his ears pointing down, even though you couldn't really tell because of his lopped ears. "It's okay I made a mess in the tub after my bath..I just want to clean after myself." "Alright if it makes you feel better.." K.K. felt bad that Kicks was doing chores and cooking for him. He didn't want Kicks to be a maid. He wanted Kicks to be his friend. But little Kicks cleaned and cleaned that bathroom until it was shimmering in the light. Kicks limped back to K.K.'s bed, his body sore from cleaning. K.K. looked at Kicks with worry. "Don't work yourself too hard you just got used to having food in your system again that reminds me have you eaten today?" "I have eaten today I ate some blueberries sorry I didn't ask permission to have some.." Kicks flinched a little for some reason when K.K. was about to respond. "It's alright you can have anything you want. You deserve it." "Ok Mister Slider.." K.K. sniffed the air and smelled cleaning chemicals on Kicks. "I think you deserve another bath again." "D-do I smell...'' Kicks said worried. "Not bad you just have cleaning chemicals on you. Also I think you might need my help you do look pretty sore." "I am..." Kicks said and blushed a tiny bit, knowing what's going to happen next. "I can help you bathe." K.K. said and put Kicks on his lap then lifted him up. "Sure.." Kicks mumbled. K.K. carried Kicks to the bathroom and bathed him again.
Once Kicks was out the tub he was laid on the bed. K.K. laid next to him. "I was thinking...I liked cuddling with you last night...and I think we should be cuddle buddies." "What's that?" Kicks asked confused. "It's a buddy you just cuddle with it's pretty nice." K.K. answered. "That does sound nice.." Kicks said thinking to himself about it. "Can we cuddle now?" K.K. asked spreading his arms out. "Sure.." Kicks said and went into K.K.'s arms. K.K. smiled and held Kicks close to his chest. Kicks noticed how hard K.K.'s chest was. "Woah your chest is like a rock.." K.K. smirked and said "Well I do work out." "May I see? I'm just curious...if you're uncomfortable that's okay." Kicks said quietly. "Alright let me get my shirt off first." then K.K. took off his shirt, revealing his abs and other muscles on his chest. His muscles were tight and looked like something off a movie. Kicks whole face became as bright as the sun. "O-oh my.." Kicks whispered to himself. "Like what you see?" K.K. said in a flirty tone and flexed his muscles. "Y-Yea I do!" Kicks giggled and tried to hide his face with his tail so K.K. couldn't see his blush. "You have a very nice body Mister Slider." Kicks said from behind his tail. "I get that a lot and please...call me K.K. you don't have to be so formal." "Alright...K.K." K.K. smiled and cuddled Kicks again. Kicks wanted to touch K.K.'s chest badly but knew it would be to awkward and inappropriate thing to do. K.K. saw him staring at his chest. "You can touch if you want." K.K. said casually. Kicks then began to slowly trace K.K.'s chest blushing a tiny bit. While Kicks was snuggling and tracing K.K.'s chest, he had a sexual thought about K.K. being on top of him with his bare chest pressed against him. "Oh no no no you can't be having thoughts like that you just met him a day ago! Plus he might not be into boys not everyone is gay like you are Kicks." Kicks thought to himself his face burning from blushing. "What's wrong?" K.K. asked. "Oh nothing...just thinking." Kicks said quickly. "Man...he's so cute...I wonder if he's into guys...I can't ask him now it's too soon...but someone as sweet and kindhearted like Kicks can be taken away so fast...I need to act soon but a little hard to get never hurts anyone right?'' K.K. thought. K.K. let go of Kicks and put his shirt back on. He turned the T.V. on and watched it. Kicks was a little upset that K.K. let go of him. But he didn't show it. What these two didn't know is their going to be put on a rollercoaster of emotions and this was just beginning.
