~A Christmas Elf~

	Eddy walked circles around his living room impatiently as he tried to make his brain work faster. The writer was so stressed over his upcoming meeting with his producer that he couldn't even start his newest project. Boxes filled with clothes and papers and other random junk were scattered about the room, making the house seem much smaller than it really was. The mutt never seemed to be able to stay in one town for more than a few months, so he didn't feel the need to unpack. 

	The blanket of silence brought on by the heavy snow still falling outside was a welcome change from the sound of cars zooming past his home at all hours, though Eddy worried he'd be running out of good food any day now. He rubbed his eyes and finally sat down on his large sofa. The chill of the room forced Eddy to wear his dark green robe and some thermal underwear, but he refused to wear shoes. His chilled grey feet rested up on his coffee table as he took a few deep breaths. He had been brainstorming for over an hour, and he needed to get something written down. He closed his eyes gently and let his mind wander to a story. Something that would capture the hearts of his readers. He began to imagine...

	A heavy thump on the ceiling quickly slapped Eddy out of his own thoughts, and the tumbling roll across the roof and a final crash next to the window made Eddy quickly stand up and run for the window. He looked out into the snow but couldn't see anything. Eddy slipped on his furry slippers by the door and quickly pushed out into the blizzard, closing the door quickly behind him. Squinting through the falling snow, Eddy looked over towards the window, and what he saw made his jaw drop. 

	A yellow butt with a sun tattoo on one cheek was staring the mutt in the face, a small cotton tail twitching below it. Hanging upside down by a tangle of christmas lights and faux garlands was a young man probably around twenty dressed in all green with long snow-tipped black ears. 

	The bunny groaned, and never even felt the mutt lift him up and cut him loose of the great tangle. After his nasty little slip, the next thing he remembered was a gentle warmth. His eyes were shut tight, and he barely opened them into a squint as he tried to make out where he was. The smell of dusty books, fresh ink, and toasting bread almost reminded him of his boss's office, but there was so much wrong that it couldn't possibly be. Where was the music that was always playing around the big man's place? Where are the voices of all the other employees? Why couldn't he smell peppermint tea, his boss's favorite all the time drink?

	"Uuuhhhg..."  The bunny slowly sat up, a heavy blanket slipping down off of his shoulder. He scratched his head and looked around the small room, noticing the stack of boxes in the center. He looked towards the window, noticing that it was already dark outside! He needed to go, or else he'd be super later. The yellow boy tried to stand, but his knee buckled under him and he fell before taking his first step. 

	"Whoa whoa!" A worried voice came from the stairs, someone quickly running down. "You have to be careful there, you had a nasty fall." The voice belonged to Eddy, and as the bunny looked up his eyes widened a bit with fear. He wasn't supposed to be seen by anyone, but now he was in this guy's house on his couch? This was getting too scary, and the boy tried to make for the door, but Eddy caught him around the chest in a very strong arm. "Whoa, hold on now, easy... Sit down, you'll hurt yourself more and catch a death of cold."

	The boy felt the stranger lift him enough to keep weight off of his leg as he was walked back to the sofa. Before the blanket was lifted back on, he noticed too heavy and brisk of a breeze. "Huh?"  He lifted up the top of the blanket and looked down, turning a bright red as he quickly hugged the blanket to him. "I'm naked!" 

	Eddy grinned and scratched his head. "Hehe, yeah... I'm sorry, but your clothes were all wet from the snow. You would have REALLY gotten a cold if I had left them on. I put them in the drier, so they should be clean and dry in a few minutes." Eddy looked down at his funny little guest as the bunny was looking back up at him. The bunny was small and just thin enough to put a decent curve to the hips. His white belly matched the snow outside while his yellow was almost glowing with its fine color. Eddy, on the other hand, had warm grey fur and was tall with a wide chest. The mutt had always found time to work out between his writing, keeping him at least presentable. Eddy pulled the blanket further up on his guest. "So, I'm Eddy. What's your name? Oh, and why were you on my roof?" 

	The bunny's ears quickly stood straight up and he grinned wide. "Oh! I'm Bae, and I was just checking your ceiling to make sure it was safe! Oh, you should really call a chimney sweep, it's really dirty." 

	Eddy blinked a few times and looked up, thinking about his ceiling. "Wait, you were making sure it was safe? For what?" 
	
	"You mean for who. Why, Santa of course! Christmas is the day after tomorrow, remember?" Bae's duster tail twitched in a fast wag under the blanket, but Eddy just shrugged. 

	"Ooookay. Look, I don't know what you were ACTUALLY doing on the roof, but try to be a lot more careful okay? I don't want you getting all banged up."

	"But I really was checking it for Santa. He's gonna be coming and needs the parking space, so I gotta make sure it's safe to land." 

	"Aren't you a little old for the whole Santa scene?" Eddy shook his head and held out a hand, ruffling Bae's hair. "Besides, doubt I'll be having a Christmas anyways. I'm way too busy, and the house is a mess." 

	Bae's jaw dropped. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. How could someone not believe in Santa!? And skipping Christmas just because you're busy? "But... But how can you just skip Christmas? What about the holly, and the eggnog, and the presents? You did leave a note for Santa right?"

	"Bae, hold on. Look, I can have eggnog, but I don't need holly or any of that. And If I ever need anything for Christmas, I'll get it myself." Still dumbfounded, Bae just stuttered and scratched his head. "Now, I need to get to sleep, I'm supposed to get a letter tomorrow from my producer and might need to go meet him at a moment's notice. Do you have someone to pick you up?"

	"N...not until tomorrow I don't think. But..."

	"Well, you're more than welcome to stay here then. I don't mind the company. In fact, I was starting to get pretty lonely with this blizzard keeping me away from civilization."

	With only a moment of hesitation, Bae finally nodded, hugging the blanket he held a bit closer. Eddy gave a small smile and wave down to the boy before disappearing up the stairs. 

	Bae listened to Eddy's footsteps until he heard the upstairs door close, then everything was silent. The bunny looked around the room, holding the blankets tighter to his small frame. The dark quiet room made him feel cold despite a small space-heater, and as he closed his eyes to try and sleep the thoughts of this new person completely missing out on Christmas kept him awake. 

	After almost an hour of tossing and turning, the bunny finally sat up and made a firm decision. He got up from the bed and very carefully held his blanket around him as he made his way to the stairs. Leaning on the railing, Bae made his way up the stairs and to the mutt's bedroom. The Bedroom was just as bad as the rest of the house, a few boxes on the floor and nothing else but the plain wire-framed bed. Bae quietly snuck to the side of the bed, seeing Eddy laying on his side, one arm stretched up to the head of the bed under his pillow, his other flopped lazily in front of him. Bae gulped and very carefully lifted Eddy's blanket, dropping his own as he slipped inside. 

	Eddy's bed creaked as Bae slipped inside, but it was warm under the blankets. The bunny's large feet must have had a chill to them, because as they slipped across Eddy's legs the mutt gave a small stir. Without waking, Eddy rolled over, pushing up against Bae's naked body, making the bunny hold back a squeak while his cheeks slowly turned red. Bae didn't move for a moment, worried about waking the dog in such a position, but slowly he settled into Eddy's bed, nuzzling his face into the other boy's chest. 

	Bae slipped his hand around Eddy's hip and one of his legs pushed between Eddy's. With a soft nuzzle, the bunny tempted the mutt's sleeping form to wrap an arm around him, leaving him feeling close and protected. He had always had trouble sleeping by himself, and he felt that even with this stranger he'd feel much more comfortable than sleeping downstairs. Eddy's fur smelled warm yet almost dusty, like an old familiar book. As Bae lay with him, he began to understand parts of Eddy's life, feeling the mutt's emotions running through him as his thoughts danced through dreamlands. He felt Eddy's loneliness, his need to keep working on books to keep his mind off of his need for connectivity with other people. He felt Eddy's want for someone for him to spoil and share with romantically, but as Bae began to feel more into Eddy's emotions, the boy slipped into a sound comforting sleep. 

	Eddy's hand slipped across Bae's back, scratching very softly in his sleep, but the twitching duster tail touching his fingertips woke the mutt from his dreams. Eddy gave a heavy yawn, rolling onto his back, but he froze as he felt a heavy warmth follow him, laying half on his chest. He strained to look down without moving, seeing the white-tipped ears laying across his chest, the head of yellow hair leaning on his side. It took him only a moment to realize what happened, but much longer to try and figure out why the bunny had crawled into bed with him. With a gulp, Eddy lifted the blankets, lowering them again once he found out that they were indeed naked in bed together. 

	A tent began to grow in the sheets, even as Eddy bit his lip and begged his body to not react to his predicament. His sexually starved body begged Eddy to make a move on the boy, but his better judgment prevailed. The mutt slipped his hand down Bae's back, giving a small scratch before he slowly relaxed his body, letting himself fall back to sleep. 

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

	Even when Eddy awoke, he didn't open his eyes. The softness of the pillow under his head was too great of a thing to miss out on. A soft ticking made his ear twitch, however, and a soft buzzing was seemingly getting louder the longer he stayed in bed. The buzzing finally stopped, and Eddy gave a soft sigh of relief, but before he was too comfortable the clicking became a loud chime paired with the coo-coo of at least twelve clocks! 

	Eddy sat up and covered his ears, feeling the world spinning as the clocks all went off at once, making the mutt finally roll out of bed to try and find an off switch. As soon as he hit the floor, the clocks stopped, the steady ticking and soft buzzing started again. The mutt groaned and rubbed his eyes, but as he opened them again it was in confusion and bewilderment. 

	The room Eddy had awoken in was not his own. He didn't have twelve coo-coo clocks, nor thick red and green quilts on a tall queen sized bed, nor a fireplace in his bedroom. He quickly opened the door and walked down a small and somewhat thin flight of stairs, quickly looking down into the living room. A second fireplace burned brightly, small toys rolled around on small tracks around the room, thick carpets stretched from wall to wall, and the old frosty the snowman cartoon was playing on a small box tv. Eddy was beginning to feel dizzy... where the heck was he!?  

	Seeing a window, Eddy ran to it, quickly opening the curtains. he covered his eyes from the blinding white of the snow, but as his vision cleared he felt his jaw drop. Outside this little house was a vast wonderland of snow, snowmen standing in each small yard, houses decorated and brightly lit, every one. A small sled pulled by a single large reindeer was stopped just across the street as a small kitten-girl slipped some letters into a small mailbox before moving to the next house, a huge lion of a man was scooping up 'freshest-of-fresh' snow cones straight from the ground, and doves flopped back into hills of snow, spreading their wings to make perfect snow angels that seemed to dance over the fields as far as the eye could see. 

	Eddy stared for a while and finally backed away from the window. He was obviously dreaming, that was the only logical explanation. Buuuuuuut as long as it was a dream he might as well enjoy himself. He was about to open the door and go running out into the snow, but before he did he noticed his sleeve. Eddy had been dressed in long silver pajamas, soft and light as silk, with a large decorative 'E' embroidered into the chest. He looked at his new garbs just before noticing a small tray set by the door with a thermos and plate of two cookies on it, a small note besides. He picked up the note and read to himself: 

	"Dear Eddy, Welcome to my home in the North Pole. I'm sorry I didn't ask if you wanted to come over, but i saw your mail this morning and your boss wasn't going to be able to see you due to the weather, so I thought you would be happy to have a day off to spend with someone. If you wake up before I get home, I've made you a snack of hot chocolate and cookies. Benny should be around, and I'll be back soon. Make yourself at home. ~<3 Bae." 

	Eddy turned the note over, looking at the fine card it had been written on decorated with a picture of a fine tree decorated with strings of popcorn and candles. he put it down and took one of the cookies, which was somehow still warm, slightly chewy in the middle with a crisp edge, the chips of chocolate soft and almost a liquid. He held the cookie in his mouth as he reached for a large red coat that hung by the door. The coat fit perfectly, thick and warm hanging just below his knees. He belted the coat with a large sash and then slipped into a pair of boots that sat under the coat hanger before walking out into the cold winter morning. 

	The brisk air was clean and thin, though the mutt stayed warm in his borrowed coat and boots. Eddy couldn't help but just look around him at the amazing world he had found himself in, and especially at the strange house he had just exited. The wood had a light bready color to it and Eddy swore he could smell ginger, but the snow clinging to the roof looked like frosting and the lights all like small candies making the whole place look like a sweet treat house. Off in the distance behind the house, Eddy began hearing shouts and laughter, tempting the mutt to investigate. Digging his boot into the deep snow, Eddy walked around to the back of the house, which sat on a large hill. Looking down the mutt could see a large field filled with large muscled deer of all types with others riding on their backs. They were all laughing and running around the field, some of the deer jumping so far he would have sworn they were flying. It seemed the folks riding the deer were tossing snowballs and the like, both at each other and through hoops and nets of all kinds. 

	A young soft sigh caught Eddy's attention, and his eyes were drawn to a small deer leaning on a large shovel on the edge of a partly cleared walkway. The boy had grey fur lighter than Eddy's and small orange spots dotted his face and down turned ears, a color reminding Eddy of orange cream candies. His hair was like mint and stuck out under his white and red peppermint swirl hoody, and sticking out of the top were his 8-point antlers, dripping with lines of tinsel.  

	Eddy almost giggled at the sight of the sighing deer, the boy so caught up in watching the others down the hill playing that he hadn't noticed Eddy sneak around the side of the house. Eddy decided to try and get his attention without scaring him, softly clearing his throat. 

	The deer gave a small start and a jump, the hair on his neck sticking up on end! he spun around and covered his muzzle as he looked back to see Eddy standing there, giving a small shy wave. Eddy grinned and said with a bit of a chuckle, "Hey there, didn't mean to scare you. Uh, I'm Eddy. I don't know how I really got here... what's up?" 

	The deer held his muzzle a little while longer, and then lowered his hand, his cheeks a little red as he looked off to one side. "Um... Hi, I'm... I'm Benny..." The deer spoke so softly that Eddy had to lean forward to hear what he was saying. 

	"Benny, you said? You're the one Bae mentioned in the note then. It's nice to meet you."  Eddy walked right up to the deer and slipped his hand into Benny's, giving it a little squeeze and a nice shake. "So what's going on down there?" 

	"Oh... oh that."  Benny looked back down at the field. "Um, well they're all playing their reindeer games."

	"Oooof course they are. What else would they be playing?" Eddy gave a bit of a laugh as he rolled his eyes. 

	"Well, I dunno, but this is all they like to play around Christmas time. See, Dasher has had the record for most points by hoops alone, but Donner thinks that with Bae as a rider he can beat it." 

	Eddy gave a very slow nod, not understanding really what this kid was talking about, but the games looked fun, and now that he was looking for him, he could make out a spot of yellow out on the field. "And here I thought he'd be working. Tut tut." Eddy turned back towards Benny, who was again leaning on his shovel and watching the game. "So why aren't you down there?" 

	Benny covered his muzzle again as his cheeks went red a bit more again. "I... Well, I'm not big enough yet. I couldn't play with the big guys... I'd probably just get in the way or get hurt or something..." 

	"Don't they have a game you can play? Or just maybe a smaller field to play in and practice? That all looks really fun." 

	"Yeah, well..." Benny kicked around the snow with his foot a while, and before Eddy could try and get him to say more, he turned away from the field and picked up the shovel. "I think I should get back to work, anyways. I was supposed to have this walkway shoveled by the time Bae got back so that I could make us some dinner..." 

	Eddy stepped in front of Benny and quickly plucked the shovel from his hand. "Listen, I need to do something in order to get this whole... I'm not in Kansas anymore feeling out of my head. Why not I finish shoveling and you can start cooking whatever you'd like, and then later maybe we can go out and you can show me how to play some of those reindeer games, hm?"  Benny stuttered for a second, but before he could argue, Eddy leaned forward and gave him a small kiss on the forehead. "Get on inside, cutie. I'll come in once I'm done." 

	 Benny blushed deeper again, but before he could cover his muzzle, Eddy noticed the deer's nose glow a bright red. It probably got much brighter, but Benny quickly covered it up and turned around, making a run for the back door. 

	"Hehe, are you sure your name isn't Rudolph?" Eddy gave a little laugh, thinking what a funny dream he was having. 

	Benny turned and gave one of the cutest pouts Eddy had ever seen. "Very funny... Of course I'm not Rudolph!"  Eddy was about to apologize for his joke when Benny yelled out, "Rudolph is my dad!" The mutt was stunned enough that he couldn't answer before Benny had run inside, but couldn't help himself from laughing at the adorableness of the whole thing. Of course it's Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer's kid, who ELSE would it be?

	Eddy gave the old he-ho and shoveled the whole walkway from the back to the front of the house, making short work of the whole thing. By the time he was done, Eddy was slightly out of break and he could feel a cold burning in his cheeks. He put the shovel by the door and kicked off his boots, knocking before opening the front door and letting himself in. 

	"Is that Bae?"  Benny's voice called from what Eddy assumed was the kitchen. 	

	"It's Eddy, actually. Got the place shoveled out good and clean." Eddy gave a loud sniffle, rubbing under his nose with a cold hand. "Brr..."

	"Oh dear! You must be chilled to the bone!" Benny came out of the kitchen wearing a small white apron without a shirt and seemingly only a pair of bright red boxer-briefs. "I've got some hot chocolate coming out fresh since I poured out the thermos. Sit by the fire and I'll bring you a glass."

	Eddy gave a low whistle and gave benny a wink. "Look at you, all dressed up and fancy."  Benny tilted his head and looked down, only then realizing how he was dressed in front of the new guest. His nose began to glow again as he quickly dashed into the kitchen. Eddy grinned and called back to him, "Hey, you'd better not change. I'd feel bad if you didn't dress however you wanted to in your own house."

	The mutt took a seat by the fireplace in a large leather recliner, keeping on his coat, which somehow seemed clean and dry even after being out in the snow. dreams were great like that. In less than a minute, Benny was coming back into the living room holding a small tray with two mugs and a small silver pot. He was still wearing the same apron/undies ensemble, though he walked a bit awkwardly, trying to somehow hide that he wasn't wearing very much, which made Eddy grin. 

	Benny set the tray down and poured a dark brew into one of the thick clay mugs, the sweet milk chocolate aroma filling the mutt with a feeling of relaxation. The deer handed him the mug and watched him blow over the top of the cup before taking a sip. "Is it good? I made it fresh for you..."

	Eddy smiled and gave a long "Mmmm", making the deer's small tail twitch in relief. "I think it's great. Why don't you sit down, we can talk and warm up by this beautiful fire." Benny looked around him, rubbing the back of his neck. Eddy only then realized that there was really only one chair by the fire, and he was in it. "Oh, I see... well, come here then." Eddy reached over and took Benny by the hip, temping a small gasp from the deer as he was pulled up into Eddy's lap. Eddy chuckled and handed Benny his mug while grabbing the empty one to fill. "Now, what would you like to talk about, Benny?" 

	"Um, honestly sir?"  Benny took a sip from Eddy's mug, leaning back into the mutt's chest as the warm drink sank into his chest. "Mmm... I'd like to know about you. What do you do where you're from?" 

	"I'm a writer. Well, not published yet, but soon, I hope."

	"You write? Like what?"

	"Well..." Eddy set down his mug, thinking about the story he had been trying to publish for months now. "A fantasy novel."

	"Can you tell me about it, or is it all a secret?" Benny smiled up from his drink, a small chocolaty mustache beginning to stick to his lip. 

	Eddy took a small cloth from the tray and wiped Benny's lip with it as he smiled. "Well no, it's not a secret. I can tell you a bit about it, but It's kinda a long story."

	"I do love stories." 

	Eddy looked down at Benny, who's nose gave a soft light as he smiled up at Eddy. "Hehe... okay then. Well, the story starts off with the prince of men, Edrik. He lives in a land where man rule over the world itself, controlling the wind and water with magical machines..."  Eddy began telling his story, and would have made it a quick overview, but Benny seemed so entranced by the tale that he began recalling it in true depth, speaking in fun voices as dialog between characters started, and he motioned with his hands as he described vast landscapes or intricate spells or weapons. 

	As Eddy was going on with his story, the front door open, a happy and tired yellow bunny slipping inside the cozy little house. Dressed in his green stripped jumpsuit and sports goggles, Bae panted with a grin and looked over towards the fireplace. In the soft haze of his goggles, Bae saw Eddy as a blur, a rich red coat with black boots, rosy cheeks, talking with Benny sitting in his lap. His jaw dropped as he thought Santa himself had come to visit, but as he lifted his goggles off of his eyes, he caught his breath and gave a small sigh. "Oh man, Eddy, you scared me." 

	Eddy looked over as Benny looked up and hopped off of the mutt's lap. "Bae! I'm so glad you're home! Eddy was telling about his story, and it's amazing! You should have him tell it again, I don't mind hearing it from the beginning!" 

	Eddy gave a laugh, once again reminding Bae of his boss. "Haha! No no, Benny, I think we're done for today. I'll tell more of it another time." Benny pouted and crossed his arms, but Eddy stood and ruffled his hair. "Don't worry... In fact, maybe I can mail you the first copy when it comes out, what do you say?" 

	"Well... It'll be late for Christmas..."  A smile was pulling at Benny's face even as he said this, thinking of getting the first copy, getting it before anyone else. 

	"Tell you what,"  Eddy hugged Benny from behind and kissed the top of his head. "I'll wrap it up and give you a card and everything, and you can pretend it's Christmas when you get it, okay?"

	Benny grinned and squeezed Eddy's arms before nodding quickly. "Okay! Oh, I need to check on dinner!" Benny ran from Eddy's arms, giving Bae a quick kiss on the cheek before going off to the kitchen. 

	Bae watched him go and rubbed his cheek, smiling. "Hehe, I haven't seen Benny this excited in quite a while. You two have fun while I was gone?" Bae rubbed his arm, half embarrassed for not being at the house when Eddy woke up. 

	"We had fun. Hey, this place is pretty amazing, thanks for bringing me. Even if this is just a dream."

	Bae gave a small giggle and leaned on the wall. "You still think this isn't real, even though you're here?"

	Eddy shrugged and pulled off his sash, letting the big red coat flop into one arm as he walked to the coat rack. "Well, I don't know how else to describe it. The perfect morning can't just happen, so it has to be a dream."

	For a moment, Bae looked a bit worried. "Does.... Does this mean you still don't believe in..."

	"Hey..." As Eddy hung up the red coat, he reached over to the bunny and pet his cheek. "If you're still in my arms when I wake up, I'll believe anything you want." 

	This made Bae blush softly, but Benny came in and broke up the growing silence with a gleeful cry of, "Dinner is on the table!" 

	Bae got out of his sporty jumpsuit and slipped on a cheesy holiday sweater and a pair of shorts small enough to be called into question, but Eddy didn't complain, still in his silvery pjs. The three sat down to a great meal of roast beef and veggies, carefully prepared by the now much less shy deer, Benny. They ate and laughed as Bae told about the great reindeer games he got to play, which he apparently was SO close to winning. 

	After dinner, they all sat by the fire with some eggnog, and then it was time to be getting ready for bed. It was such a fast day, and Eddy had apparently slept through most of it. He gave Benny a kiss on the cheek before the deer-boi went off to bed, and Bae did the same. His nose glowed a bit as Eddy gave his bum a little smack as he went off towards his bedroom.

	Bae leaned onto Eddy, who sat on the recliner once more. "Hey, sorry again for dragging you here without asking. I hope it was worth it." The bunny pushed his muzzle to Eddy's cheek, nuzzling gently as the fireplace warmed them both. 

	"Bae, thank you for everything. I'm kind of glad you had that little crash landing at my house." Eddy nuzzled back and kissed his host's head. 

	Bae blushed and pulled away a bit, rubbing his arm again. "Um... Eddy? I have a question." Eddy tilted his head and listened as Bae tried to find the right words... "Um, I have this talent. I can feel other people's wants and emotions. It helps me when i'm helping Santa find something someone really wants."

	"Okay. So what do you have to ask me?" 

	"Well..." Bae was blushing as he looked up, his green apple eyes meeting with Eddy's. "When we were laying together, I felt a bit of what you wanted, and... Well I want... Um..." Bae looked away and gripped at his arm a bit. "I was wondering if I could... If you'd let me... I could help you get what you really want for Christmas." 

	"Hehe... and what is that, Bae?"  Eddy didn't really know what the boy was talking about and grinned, but his eyes went wide when he felt the bunny lean forward and press their lips together. The kiss caught Eddy off guard and he gave a small gasp before feeling his body loosen and relax, leaning back into the seat, Bae following him into the chair. Bae straddled Eddy's lap as they kissed, slowly opening themselves into a deeper kiss. 

	It had been years since Eddy had felt someone so close to him, and he was almost worried that he might be kissing all wrong, not sure where he should put his hands or if he should stick his tongue out. Bae could feel Eddy's hesitation and his little tail wagged quickly back and forth as he took the lead. He turned his head slightly to one side as his tongue slid against Eddy's lip, tempting the larger boy to open his mouth. Even though he hesitated, Eddy slowly let his new friend slip his tongue inside, tasting sweet chocolate as the bunny made out with him, moving his tongue around slowly exploring every inch of the mutt's mouth. As he pulled back, Bae took Eddy's lower lip gently between his teeth, biting gently. He grinned when Eddy gasped, and as he sat back into the mutt's lap he licked his lips, happy to feel a growing tent in his guest's pj pants. 

	"You know, we can take this up to my room if you want." Bae put a finger to his mouth, turning his body cutely with a wink. "I bet my bed is much more comfy..." 

	Eddy gulped and looked off to the side, his cheeks burning with a deep blush. "I... I guess it would be. You sure you wanna...?"  Eddy gave a small YIPE as Bae's warm hand gripped around his growing erection through his pjs, the bunny smiling wide. "I...Guess you're sure then. Hehe... Why don't we go to your room, then?"

	Bae took Eddy's hand and pulled the mutt up onto his feet, pulling him quickly to the stairs. As they ascended, Eddy couldn't help but get a wonderful view of the boy's butt, only inches from his face. The bunny turned and winked at Eddy, earning him another blush just before he kicked the door to his room wide open, turning and grabbing Eddy's shirt, pulling him to pin the bunny to the bed in a second kiss. Bae's hand slipped from Eddy's shirt and around to his back, his other arm wrapping around him as well, fitting the mutt with a loose hug around his neck. Eddy moaned, pushing forward until his erection pressed into Bae's abs, Bae's lips pulling into a grin. The bunny pushed his forehead to Eddy's, pushing away from the kiss as he panted, catching his breath. 

	Bae moaned and again licked his lips. "Mmm, it feels like you really wanted this, didn't you?" He giggled as Eddy nodded, looking still slightly embarrassed. "Hey hey, you don't have to be all shy around me, puppy dog." Bae's finger pushed against Eddy's forehead, making the dog look back into his eyes. "This is really what I wanted to... Someone to share myself with."

	Eddy finally smiled, feeling Bae's arms around his neck, the boy's loose sweater feeling like a scarf, and he leaned forward to gently lick the boy's nose. "Thank you..." Eddy kisses Bae's cheek, leaning away from Bae's own puckered lips as he made his way down, kissing at his neck. Bae's gasp and dark moan made Eddy's tail wag excitedly, his erection growing larger, barely held in by the loose silvery silk pajamas. He let his teeth drag across the bunny's exposed neck, nibbling the soft fur as he lowered further, pulling at the sweater to get to his shoulder. 

	Eddy's hand had found Bae's hip and caressed it sensually, but he felt the bunny's much smaller hand slip on top of his, guiding it further back and under his tail. The boy's butt was firm yet so soft to the touch even while in those skin-tight shorts. The mutt's paw slipped up, feeling the underside of the shivering cotton-ball tail and squeezing gently. He licked at Bae's neck a while before letting his hand slip further up and into the boy's sweater, feeling the heavy warmth inside. 

	"Isn't this a bit hot, babe? Maybe we should..."  Bae had been waiting for Eddy to finally try to undress him, and kissed his lips before raising his arms. The mutt grinned and slipped his hand around to Bae's front, feeling the boy's tummy under the sweater before sliding his hand further up his body. He took his time, letting his fingers memorize the soft turns and dimples in the muscles under Bae's soft white belly. He slid past the boy'd chest and finally to his shoulders, pushing the sweater up and over, finally seeing the boy without anything to cover his adorably sexy body. Well, except those pesky shorts, but that will come in time. Eddy tossed the cheesy sweater behind him and lowered himself again, kissing Bae's chest as the bunny leaned back onto his arms to close his eyes and just feel as he tried to catch his breath. 

	Glancing up at Bae's panting face, Eddy grinned and slipped his hands around the boy's thighs, lifting him easily up off of the floor and onto the tall soft bed. Bae squeaked in surprise at the quick lift, but moaned and lifted his hand to his mouth as he felt that long flat doggy tongue dragging along his abs and over his belly button, going lower and lower. As Eddy's lips began to tease along the edge of the shorts, Bae began to feel himself pushing his hips upward, hoping for the mutt to keep going, but the lips stopped and continued to tease as strong gently fingers pushed up his thighs. Eddy's thumbs slipped into the tight legs of Bae's shorts, moving in so close, but never quite reaching the lustful itch he was feeling. 

	"E...Eddy, please, I..."

	"Shhhh..." Eddy looked up and grinned at Bae, who looked back down at him flustered and slightly pink in the cheeks. "Don't worry, Bae... I'll take care of you." Eddy's tail wagged high behind him as he finally wrapped his fingers around the button on Bae's shorts, a quick pull popping them open. Bae gave a small gasp as he felt his own erection finally pushing out of it's tight denim prison. As the mutt slipped down the boy's zipper, black fabric stretched out of the confines of the shorts, tenting heavily. Eddy grinned as he pulled the shorts fully off, tossing them back along with the sweater, but as he looked at Bae's tenting undies again, he couldn't help but chuckle. "...a jock strap, hun?" 

	Bae's ears stuck up as he sat up quickly, blushing badly as he stuttered out, "I...We were playing games, and... and I didn't have time to change everything, so...And..." 

	The flustered bunny made Eddy grin, and he laid a gentle hand onto Bae's package to give the bunny a bit of a start and hush him up. "I think they're sexy. I'm glad you kept them on after your games." The mutt lowered himself again, nuzzling the thin black fabric as his hand pushed under the bunny's tail again, feeling the bare fur underneath. Eddy took in deep slow breaths to capture the bunny's scent in his memory, the light musk masking his personally sweet scent with a lustful aroma. He gently nosed at the waistband, giving small kisses and nibbles as his hands played under the boy's tail. Eddy grinned as the fabric moved down, Bae's small hands pulling on the elastic bands wanting more. 

	"Eddy... Touch me, please... I don't want to wait anymore, please..."  Bae's voice was soft as a whisper, making Eddy tail wag faster as he lowered his lips once again. The dog's nose was tickled by the slightly thicker fur surrounding Bae's erect member, and he felt the intense warmth surrounding it on his cheek as he slid down Bae's body. Finally, the sizable cock was in view, and Eddy's lips pressed to it's tip, making the bunny squirm. "Ah! Yes, right there, right there Eddy...!" 

	"As you wish, Bae." Eddy smiled and closed his eyes, letting his other senses guide him along Bae's pleasure. his lips kissed down the bunny's length, and his tongue dragged him back up to the tip multiple times before he let himself lower further, slipping his tongue around the small soft balls underneath. As he nuzzled and kissed at Bae's sack, his hand wrapped gently around the erect length, stroking up and down with the slickness of his saliva, making the boy grip the sheets under him and hiss in blissful pleasure. 

	Eddy's fingers became slightly wet with the beading pre around Bae's tip, but only just as he began to speed his hand, Bae grabbed his wrist and pulled him away. Eddy looked up, Bae's eyes closed tight as he panted hard for breath. "Hah...hah... w...wait..." Bae pulled Eddy's hand to his lips, giving his fingers soft licks as he pulled the dog up further onto the bed. "I don't want to finish like this.... not yet, anyways. Let me do you." Bae smiled as Eddy grinned through an obvious blush, and he pulled the pup further onto the bed before pushing him onto his back. "I'm not as patient as you." He gave a clever wink. 

	"Uh, what do you me-Waa!" Eddy was interrupted mid question when his bunny friend took a hold of his pjs and pulled hard, the silk clothes flying up and out of the way, leaving Eddy very quickly VERY naked. "H...hey!" 

	"Oh, shush. You've seen all of me already." Bae gave a teasing grin as he pulled his jock strap back up so that he wasn't having to pull at them around his thighs, giving his tail a wiggle to feel his bare butt in the warm air of his room. "Oooo, you're not such a lil puppy now, are ya?"  Bae grinned and took a hold of Eddy's fully stiffened tool, the mutt's member a decent girth even for his body size. The quick grip made the mutt whimper as he closed his eyes tight, but as Bae began to lick at the head, the whimpers turned into moans. The bunny slipped back and laid with his elbows on either side of Eddy's hips, gently teasing the member in front of him as he felt himself grinding against his quilt. A quick flick of his head and Bae tossed his ears to one side, taking Eddy's member into his mouth, suckling on the tip. The salty bitter-sweet pre collecting at the head made Bae moan, sending vibrations through the mutt's body as he lowered himself more, covering Eddy's cock in his saliva, making him completely wet before he began bobbing his head. 

	Eddy couldn't help himself, his hand gently petting Bae's cheek before pushing his fingers through the bunny's hair. Gently he gripped the hair, pulling down as his hips pushed upwards, very carefully thrusting into the hot tight mouth. He almost growled in pleasure as his hips shook, gently humping upwards as Bae humped down into the bed, grinding himself pleasurably against the sheets.

	 The two pleasured each other as Bae greedily sucked on Eddy's member for quite a while, but soon Eddy began to feel his pleasure building too much to hold. He pulled Bae's hair gently and whimpered, and the bunny pulled off of him with a small pop, licking his lips and grinning down. "Yes, puppy? You need something?"  Bae's tail wiggled quickly behind him as he lifted himself onto all fours, crawling on top of Eddy, 
pushing their noses together. 

	Eddy's panting breath tickled across Bae's neck, and the mutt tried to speak, but his voice was shaky. "I...I didn't... I mean, I want... was wondering if..." 

	"You wanna do me now? Merry Christmas down the chimney style?" Bae giggled as Eddy looked slightly confused by the terminology, and then kissed the mutt on the nose. "Yes, I want to have sex with you, and I want you to do me nice and hard." 

	Eddy gulped and slid back in the bed, sitting up as he watched Bae sit up on his haunches, giving him a wink before turning around and getting onto all fours. As the bunny's little tail flipped up, Eddy pushed himself up onto his knees, blushing deeply. He gazed at Bae's small rump, the cheeks spread just enough to view a tight pink hole winking at him as if to temp him closer. Eddy gulped and crawled closer to Bae, who reached back and took Eddy's hand, guiding it to the bunny's wide sensual hip. The yellow flirt winked back at Eddy and scooted back a hair, wiggling his hips, feeling the large wet member just behind him. Eddy took a deep breath and held onto Bae as he aimed himself, pushing his tip under the cotton-ball tail, making the boy moan out. 
	
	"Eddyyyyy, come on. I want you so bad..." 

	Biting his lip, Eddy pushed forward, feeling Bae tightly push back until a soft pop send the tip of the hard member inside. Eddy and Bae gasped together, shuttering as the erect cock pushed deeper in. "Ah, This is..."

	"Yeah... for me to. Mmmm....more." Bae pushed back, letting Eddy slip fully inside, the dog giving a soft whimper as his bunny friend simply moaned. Eddy's hands rested on Bae's sides as he felt himself hilt inside of the sexy boy, the soft warm walls caressing him and teasing him as if wanting him to move. 

	Eddy pulled back, feeling Bae's entrance grip tightly before he pushed back in a bit harder, his balls swinging into Bae's with a small slap. "Ah!" The bunny turned his head, grinning back. "Yeah, just there... keep doing that, baby..." 

	Eddy began moving without thinking, his hips moving back and forth as his slick member stretched the boy's rear wide, his tip pulling at Bae's tight ring every time he almost pulled out before pushing back inside. The mutt began feeling a feral rush inside of him, and he leaned down, an arm wrapping around Bae's chest, his hips tensing with each thrust. His muzzle rested just behind Bae's ear, his heavy panting warming the boy's cheek as his tongue hung out, wetting his neck. 

	"Ah! Ah! Eddy, yes! You're getting wild!" 

	The words of encouragement pushed Eddy further, his grip tightening across Bae's chest as he pushed himself faster! He could feel himself getting close to orgasm, and couldn't bring himself to stop. He knew he should ask, he should be careful, but as he felt Bae's hot body underneath him and the gripping hole he was pushing into, he couldn't bring himself to even pause! The mutt pulled back, sitting up while pulling Bae along with him with his hips still pumping in and out of the bunny. He felt himself bite at Bae's neck, his teeth pushing through the soft yellow fur and onto the skin, making the bunny cry out just as the mutt thrust in one more time, holding himself deep in his rear. 

	Eddy felt himself cumming, his balls clenching under him as floods of his seed spilled into his host. His hips twitched, Bae gasping for air as he felt the warmth spreading in his belly. Both lover panted heavily as Eddy held Bae to his chest. Finally, they both fell forward, slumping onto the bed, Eddy rolling to his side to not squish the little bunny. 

	"Hah...hah..." Eddy licked at Bae's neck, the bunny snuggling back to Eddy's chest. 

	"Mmm, I think I made a mess..." 

	Eddy raised an eyebrow and looked down at Bae's head. "You... hah... you did? Even without..."

	"Nope... you were more than enough, babe." Bae turned with a smile, pushing his nose to Eddy's, rubbing gently before giving a small kiss. They both gave a small gasp as Bae moved, letting Eddy's softening member pull out. "Ngg... there we go." A slight shove and a few shifts and Bae had Eddy on his back, the yellow boy resting on him, the mutt's hand lightly scratching his back. They lay together for a few minutes, basking in their afterglow. Eddy was almost asleep when he felt a gentle hand on his still slick member. He gave a small hiss in surprise and looked down, his friend grinning up at him as he reached back. 
	
	"Hee hee, I think it feels like you can go again." 

	"W...wait, what?"  Eddy looked a bit intimidated, but Bae just slid back and began to grind his sloppy rear against his once again stiffening member. 

	"Oh yes, you can definitely go again. I'm going to be on top this time, ride you like a cowboy!" 

	Bae had Eddy go again, and then again afterwards before getting off Eddy again with his mouth. Eddy lost track of how many times they had sex, finally falling asleep sore and exhausted, holding the satisfied.... well, at least mostly satisfied bunny. The sun began to peak over snow filled fields as they finally slipped into sleep. 

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

	Eddy woke up without opening his eyes, trying to remember every detail of his wonderful dream. His hand stretched in front of him, but felt only his own thin sheets. No thick Christmassy quilt, no sexy young Bae, and as he perked up his ears he heard no soft ticking or persistent buzz of the coo coo clocks. 
	
	Eddy sighed and finally sat up, rubbing his eyes. His dream had been so amazing, he had only wished it was real. He would love to believe in a winter wonderland, and Santa Clause, and cute little red-nosed deer, but at the end of the day it seemed that...
	
	Eddy sniffed the air, his nose twitching softly. He had remembered falling asleep the night before to the familiar scent of books and dust, but there was definitely a lingering scent of pine and gingerbread in the air. He opened his eyes and looked around, his eyes going a bit wide. All of the boxes that had scattered around his room was gone, a single open drawer of his dresser showing neatly folded clothes put away. 

	As Eddy quickly stepped out of bed, he noticed in the drawer a familiar silver shirt, and he drew it out. His 'E' embroidered pajamas were right on top, ready for him to wear. Without hardly a hesitation, Eddy put on the pjs and ran downstairs. The large stairs almost too thickly carpeted were definitely his, but as he turned at the bottom step to look into his living room, he was taken aback. 

	Everything that had been stacked throughout the house, all of the boxes and stacks of books and papers were all missing. In their place was a large Christmas tree, fully decorated with small bubble swirling lights, brightly colored bulbs, and a large star at the very top. His table was covered in a cotton-snow playground dotted with little houses just like what he had seen in his dream, and the room was surrounded in a thick garland, a sprig of mistletoe hanging from the kitchen doorway. 

	"I...Uh...wha..." Eddy stuttered as he stepped into the fully decorated room,  and turned around quickly when he heard a clearing throat from the kitchen.

	 Bae stood in the doorway, giving a small finger wave before rubbing his arm. "Good morning... I hope you don't mind that I... well... Merry Christmas." The Bunny was dressed in his little green shirt that reached just past his hips, edged in white cotton fluffs, little golden buttons on the sleeves and chest. He held a small hat with a silent silver bell hanging to the side, and as he saw Eddy's astonishment, he smiled. 

	"Did... Bae, did you do all of this?" 

	Bae shrugged and blushed a bit. "Well, no... Santa came around last night. He and Benny helped out. Oh! He brought you this." 

	Bae handed Eddy a small gift wrapped in green and red sparkly wrapping paper, a golden bow tied into the corner. Eddy took it, but looked at Bae. "You... He brought this for me?"   Bae nodded quickly and motioned at the package, letting Eddy know that he could open it. The mutt tore away the paper and gazed at a large thick covered book. "Nargod... Tales of Man and Elken, a novel by Eddy Holmgren..." 

	"Hehe, I guess Santa went and saw that your producer wanted to get this printed, so he went ahead and let some of my co-workers bind it up and make a few copies. This is the first one off the press." 

	Eddy looked at the book in his hands for a good while before turning back to Bae and grabbing him in a big hug, lifting him off of the ground with a spin! "Bae, this is amazing! Thank you!" He gave the bunny a kiss right on the lips, making the bunny squirm and flail a bit in surprise. 

	"Eeep! Eddy Eddy, come on now! it's just a book!" Even through his protests, Bae giggled and blushed at the kiss. 

	"It's not that, Bae... You made me believe in Christmas again. I had forgotten about how great it feels to believe in something, and to give, and... well, other things." Eddy gripped Bae's tail-end with a wink, making the boy blush. "Thank you... Merry Christmas.

	"Merry Christmas, Eddy." The two kissed again and hugged under the mistletoe, holding each other as their Christmas morning filled each other with joy and glee. "...So, dinner at my place later?"

	"Is Benny cooking?"   <3
