Heyo everyone! >w<
Here me again with another story. Hope you will enjoy in it.
Until next time.
********************************************************************************
Small but big fan
"I think I will finish this one and that's it for today." Said Terry to himself when he was close to finishing one of many drawing commissions (he drew giant tigress hugging her tiny golden retriever friend). Micro leopard really loved being freelance artist: he is his own boss, no asshole co-workers, make friends easier, he decides what and how long he will do, and most important he really loves to draw and make everyone happy with his art (maybe that's the reason why he had so many commission requests, he is cheaper than most artists).
***************************************************************************Meanwhile, his normal size tiger friend Kyle finished grocery shopping. When he came close to his building, he saw a moving truck and two bulls carrying stuff into the building. "Oh. New neighbor. I wonder who moved in." He made his way towards his apartment and saw strange blue wolf in the hallway of the first floor. "Oh. Hello there. You must be the guy who moved in."
"Huh? Oh. Yeah, I just moved in. Location is good, it's not too expensive, and I need a bit bigger place. So, I couldn't help it. Hehe." There were 10 seconds of awkward silence while Kyle deeply stared at wolf. "Ummm. Is everything ok?" He asked nervously
"You seem familiar." Another few silent seconds passed. "No way! Are you Gamer Wolfy?"
"Hehe. Yeah, that's me. But please call me Fred or just Wolfy. "
"My friend is totally crazy about you. He told me about you."
"It's always nice to know I have fans."
"Come on. You have like 550k followers. What two weirdos mean in that number."
"Don't talk like that. Everyone means to me. Without you I wouldn't have anything I have today."
Kyle shameful looked in the floor and shyly asked. "Sorry if I'm too direct, but... Can we take a picture?"
"Of course."
"And can I send it to my friend? He would really like to meet you. No-one else would know, I promise. I won't tell anyone, and he isn't that type of guy."
"Well... Alright. Why not? I'm always open to meet new people and make new friends."
"Great! Thank you so much!" He pulled out his phone and takes a selfie. "It's perfect. Thank you."
"It's nothing, really."
"I must go now. Still have some things to finish. If you need help, I live on the third floor. We are neighbors now after all. Hahaha."
"Thank you for the offer. I will. And tell your friend he is welcomed to visit."
"I will. Bye."
"Bye."
***************************************************************************
Terry finally finished his last commission for today, and he was finally free for the rest of the Wednesday evening (watch some videos, scroll through social media, or something like that). He was ready to get up from the chair when he suddenly received UwUscord notification. It was Kyle.
Hey Terry! You won't believe who I saw. You will never guess.
Who?
Try to guess.
What's the point if you said I wouldn't guess?
Fun. ^w^
Fine. Your sympathy Mary. X3
NO! What are you talking about? Next guess.
Hehe. Ok. Max?
No.
Some your childhood friend?
No.
I give up. Please tell me.
Are you sure you want to know?
COME ON!
Alright, alright.
Kyle sent a picture.
Wait? No way! Is that really Wolfy?
It sure is.
Where?
You wouldn't believe me. He moved in my building today.
NO WAY! Dude, you are so lucky. I would literally give everything just to see him.
You don't need to give everything, just pay him a visit when you want.
WHAT?! You are kicking, right? There is no way.
I'm not. ^w^ I ask him if you can meet him and he accepted.
OMG! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! @w@
Hehe. Anything for my little friend. ;3
I will do anything you want.
You know I will never say no to nice paw massage, especially from my friend. ^w^
Yeah, yeah. You deserve it.
They changed for a bit more. When they ended Terry couldn't think straight. He will finally have a chance to meet his favorite FurTuber. "Should I bring him something? What even I could bring him? What should I wear? When should I go?" Various questions fly through his head. First thing he must do is to calm down. Deep breath in, deep breath out. "Probably the best day to come is Friday. It's not too early. Right? Now, what to give him? Probably he wouldn't like any micro size gift, and I don't want to bother Kyle with that." He thought for a few seconds. "Oh. I know. I will draw him something. Probably the best option. But, what if he doesn't like it? What if he wants something more... Useful? Stop thinking that way, he seems like nice guy on videos and streams. I have time to think about other things later. Now it's chill time." So he laid down on the bed and scroll through socials. He couldn't completely calm down, he was too excited.
**************************************************************************************************
Finally Friday was here. Terry spent whole Thursday and half of Friday drawing fan art of Wolfy (Blue wolf in berserk state, holding bloody steal axe in each hand, riding huge black dragon that is also in berserk state. Whole drawing had such amazing details, even Terry was impressed how it came out. Drawing represent Wolfy in his most popular video game serial Only capable survive). He printed it in big poster size (at least big for him) and plasticizes to protect it from outside causes. He also had perfect tube to put poster in. In case, he had digital copy in full resolution on his phone.
Now it's the time. He stood in front of the building where lives his best friend and his favorite FurTuber. Terry was so excited; he couldn't believe this is really happening.
Luckily most of the buildings had micro elevator, so he didn't have to climb up on stairs. After few minutes he was there, in front of Wolfy's door. He checked one last time address which Kyle gave him. "This is it. Now or never." He punches doors several times to simulate knocking.
"Coming!" Said Fred politely. How's wolf came closer, Terry's hart started pump like crazy. When doors opened, his heart stopped for a moment. "Huh? No-one. Probably some pranksters."
Before wolf started to close the door micro leopard spoke. "E... E... Ex... Cuse... Me." Said Terry really nervous.
Fred's ear twitched. "Huh?" He slowly looks down and spot tiny nervous leopard. "Well hello there little guy. Sorry for not noticing you. Did you need something?" Surprisingly, really sweet and caring voice comes out from giant wolf.
Terry stayed completely silent; words couldn't come out from his mouth. "OMG! OMG! OMG! IT'S HIM! IT'S REALLY HIM!"
Then Fred realized. "Oh! You must be tiger's friend. Right? No need to be so nervous little one. I'm not going to hurt you. Will you tell me your name?" Said with a warm smile.
"T... Terry... Mister... Wolfy."
"Hahaha. Nice to meet you Terry. And there is no need to be so formal. You can call me Fred or Wolfy, without mister thing." On Terry's face appeared slight smile. "Please come in."
"In?"
"Well yes. What did you think? I will disappoint my fan. Never. So please, come in."
"T... Thank you." Terry slowly enters in apartment. "This isn't happening. Right? This must be wonderful dream." It wasn't his first time in normal size apartment, but that particular one was somehow different.
"Sorry for the mess, I'm still unpacking. And I didn't expect you would come so quickly. I guess you could wait any longer. Hahaha."
"Y-yeah. Sorry."
"Don't need to be. I told friend of yours you can come any time. So it's ok." Fred decided to put his palm on the floor beside micro leopard. "Want to take a ride. It would be faster." Said with a smile.
"T-thank you." He took a step on the palm and sit down in the middle to be more safer.
Wolfy still didn't place the couch and coffee table the right way, so best place would be his computer tablet. He slowly lowered his palm on table, so Terry could jump off. "There we go, nice and safe. Just give me a second. I know I have some juice and snacks."
"Y-you don't need to..."
"Nonsense. What kind of host would I be?" He only could find lemon soda and cheese flavor chips. "When did I eat all sweets? I hope he doesn't mind it." For some reason he cared about all this. "Only thing I could find is this. I hope you don't mind."
"N-no. Thank you." Wolfy started to pore lemon soda into bottle cat when Terry spoke. "Oh! I almost forgot. This is for you." He handed him a small tube.
"For me? Really?" Terry shyly nodded. "Awww. You didn't have to. Thank you." He happily accept fan's gift. This could easily be told because his tail waved like crazy. "What is it?"
"Open it."
Wolfy struggled a lot, still without success. "Ummm. Little help." Leopard gladly opened the tube and handed him a poster. "It's a drawing. No, wait. It's a fan art. Its looks amazing. Thank you so much. I don't see much of it. And I have perfect place for it." Saying that he carefully taped it on corner of his monitor. "Perfect. I don't want to sound ungrateful but, I wish I can see it in full glory. It's kinda hard to see all details like that."
"Well... I... I have whole file on phone. If you want."
"Really!? Can you send me?" He sounded really excited.
"I guess." He opened Wolfy's public social and send him a picture.
He opened file on PC, and stay stunned. "Wow. I can't believe it. This is absolutely perfect. Did you draw this?" Terry just shyly nodded. "You are amazing. I don't remember when I saw drawing that... Amazing like that." Even from fur could be seen how red Terry was, almost like tomato. "To be honest that was literally me when I try to tame that bad boy, I wanted to kill him so bad because he was so difficult to tame. But I couldn't say no to his states. Hahaha. I guess you want your part now."
"Huh?"
"Photo. Didn't you come because of it?"
"N-no. I just wanted to meet you. See you in person. That was my dream from moment when I saw you."
"Awww. Well I think you deserve it."
"I don't know what to say. Thank you so much."
"Oh come on, it's nothing."
Terry pulled out his phone, Fred placed his chin on the table and put goofy smile, Terry also smiled as much as he could and finally take a photo.
"Is it good?"
"It couldn't be better."
"But that is not all." He pulled a piece of paper from drawer and singed it. (Not too big not, not too small. Perfect A3 paper size for small leopard.) "Now you completed your collection. Hahaha."
"This... I... I... Thank you."
"Hahaha. No problem. And you can put it in the tube if you want it. Tube is too small for me, but I keep the drawing. Hahaha."
"Ummm. Can I ask you something?"
"Sure."
"Why did you even accept this? You know, me coming here. Aren't you already sick of those fan meetings and all that?"
"Well... I'm grateful for all who supports me. It's true I had a few bad encourage with some followers, but I can't judge all because of them. And to be honest, I didn't want to see you at first, because your friend said you are crazy about me. And I really have some trauma. But, you know; new town, new everything, but no friends. So I accept it. And that was probably the best decision I ever made. I never met someone that sweet and cute like you."
Terry was now completely red from embodiment. In his head echoed: "Cute, sweet."
"Hey! I just remembered something. Is your account Larry-the-Terry?"
"Y-yes."
"And you think you don't deserve anything from today. Do you know how much you helped me with donations?"
"I'm sure it wasn't that much."
"Do you want to know?" Terry nodded. "This chair. This keyboard. This mouse. And few more things. All top quality. I have half of setup thanks to you."
"I... I just wanted to help you."
"And you did. Hahaha."
"I guess." They continue chat for hours. Both enjoined very much. And Terry's nervousness completely faded away. When he realized how late it was he jumped a bit. "Already 22:30?" He looked back at Wolfy and little disappointed and said. "I should go now. It's getting really late."
"If you want you can stay here for tonight."
"NO! NO! NO! Sorry I don't want to sound ungrateful but..."
"Hahaha. It's ok. I understand you. It would be chances for that. I hope. I guess this is it for today. What a shame, but it was amazing."
"It sure was."
"Oh, before you go." He pulled out his phone and open UwUscord. "Here's my ID. If you want to contact me."
"Y... You giving me your ID?"
"Well yeah. How should I stay in touch with new friend? Would you rather exchange..." He couldn't finish the sentence when suddenly micro leopard jumped from the table on his lap and hug huge wolf belly.
Soon Terry realized what he had done. "I'm really sorry. I got carried away. I just can't believe this is happening."
"Hahaha. No need to be sorry. Sometimes friends hugs. Right?" Leopard nodded. "Now type ID before I forget. Hehe."
"This isn't a dream, this must be heaven."
"Can I at least carry you to the hallway."
"If you want." So he received another short ride. "You know what?"
"What?"
"That was the best day in my whole life. I never was this happy."
"Same here. I'm glad I accept your call. I'm a bit sad this comes to the end, but you can come here any time. I would be happy. And now we can contact each other whenever we want."
"You are very kind."
"For friend. This is nothing." There was slight pause before Fred spoke. "How about goodbye hug?"
"Sure." Giant wolf pressed tiny leopard against his chest. He was surprisingly careful and gentle. Sure that friendship means to both of them. "Thank you for everything today."
"Thank you too." Wolfy released micro leopard from hug and said. "I suppose this is bye for now."
"It's look like that." Wolfy lowers Terry on the floor so he could safely get off.
"I can't wait next time. Good night Terry."
"Good night Wolfy." He gives giant wolf a really heartwarming smile and start his way towards elevator. He pressed the button for ground floor, but then he sits down on elevator's floor. "AAAAAAA! I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING! IF THIS IS A DREAM I DON'T WANT TO WAKE UP!" It was really real. He is happiest and luckiest micro in the world right now.
Just when Terry leave the elevator, giant tiger turn around to see who is leaving. Maybe some tiny fella needs help or something. "Oh, Terry. What are you doing here? Eager for my massage? Hahaha."
"Hi Kyle. Sorry for disappointing you but no. I went to visit Wolfy."
"I see. Usually you don't stay outside this late. Was it spicy?"
"N-NO. What are you talking about? We just talk. And… Get along together. Like a friends."
"Hahaha. I'm kidding. How was it?"
"Marvelous."
"Big words for small kitty. Hahaha. Want to stay with me tonight? It's getting late, and I have your bed prepared. And tomorrow morning I can carry you home."
"I don't know. I don't want to bother you that much."
"Nonsense." Kyle put his palm beside micro leopard in case if he changes his mind.
"Well... If you insist." One step and he was on tiger’s palm.
"Hang on kitty."
When Kyle made first step upstairs Terry spoke. "What about you? What are you doing this late?"
Kyle blush a little. "Well... You see... I was on a date... With Mary.
"Really!? That's great. How was it?"
"Marvelous." Said Kyle with a grin.
"Har. Har. Har. At least try to be original. But I'm happy for you. Give me details."
"Well. I just invited her on a drink. There was nothing special, just talking. I offered her a walk to home and she accepted. She held my hand whole time, I couldn't be happier. In the end she said I can't wait next time."
"Oh you Romeo. Hahaha."
He opened the door of his apartment. "Say that to my paws."
"Hahaha. I will. I will. But please can I do that in the morning. I'm tired."
"Sure. I can't enjoy when my massager doesn't work properly. Hahaha."
"Yeah, yeah."
Tiger opened the night stand drawer beside his bed and lowered tiny leopard on top of the night stand. "Whenever you are ready."
"Thank you."
"Need something before bed? Water? Snack?"
"Maybe just a bottle of water. In case if I get thirsty. Wait here. I know I had one inside." He jumped inside the drawer and quickly found one bottle in his size. "Find one."
"Okay. Let's get you a water." After that they chatted for few more minutes.
"YAWN. Can we go to sleep now? I'm really tired."
"Of course sleepycat." He slowly and carefully put Terry into the drawer. "Do you want to drawer stays opened or?"
"Open please, thanks."
"Alrighty. Good night Terry."
"Good night Kyle. Sweet dreams. Hehe."
Right before Terry was ready to go sleep he heard DING sound from his phone. Terry got UwUscord notification. It was Wolfy he sent waving cat emoji.
What do you say about my new profile picture? ^w^
You put my drawing as a profile picture?
Well yeah. It's just so amazing I couldn't help it. Do you want to I remove it?
No, no. I just didn't expect you would like it that much. I'm surprised.
Awwww Well I just want to show you I didn't scammed you about the profile and I wanted to know if you safely arrived.
Thank you And yes, I arrived safely Thank you for caring. X3
No problem Terry. Of course I'm carrying for new friend.
I would love to chat with you more, but I'm so sleepy. So sorry. QwQ
Awwww No worries Terry, I understand. I'm also a bit sleepy. Then, good night Terry. Sweet dreams. ^w^
Good night you too Wolfy. >w<
Terry put down his phone and with a smile on his face fall asleep. This is sure beginning of wonderful friendship.
