Chapter 1

For a long time Ruth and I snuggled together in our afterglow. Her arm was around me like when we went to sleep, and I gently stroked the back of her hand, loving the feel of the fur under my fingers. Her fuzzy belly was wonderfully soft against my back, and if I hadn’t already been well rested, the rhythm of her breathing would have lulled me right to sleep. Once in a while she would kiss my neck or cheek, and that was amazing too, but mostly we just laid there, enjoying the feel of each other. After a while Ruth shifted and sighed in what sounded like disappointment. I turned over to face her.

“Is something wrong?” I asked as I stroked the side of her face.

“As much as I’d love to stay with you all day, I’ve got to go to work in a couple hours.”

“That’s still a couple hours away though,” I replied with a chuckle. “We’ve got time for some more cuddling!” Ruth laughed.

“I wish, but it’s probably going to take that long to get cleaned up and ready.”

“Really?” I asked, genuinely surprised. Ruth laughed again, this time more tenderly.

“You made a bit of a mess ... and some of it has run down my legs,” she replied with a chuckle.

“Oh ... I’m sorry,” I muttered sheepishly. Ruth just smiled.

“Don’t be.” She kissed my forehead. “You’ve made me very happy. I just need to take a full shower instead of just washing my hair, that’s all.” Having been reassured, I got an idea.

“Do you remember when I was first touring the apartment?” I asked with a cheeky grin.

“Yes, what about it?”

“Do you remember what I said about the shower?” Ruth thought for a moment, then her eyes shot open and she laughed again. “So, want some company?”

“Yes, I would like that,” she replied with a happy giggle. We took a moment untangling from each other and the bed sheets, and when we got up there was a large wet spot on the bottom sheet.

“Oof, I’ll takes the sheets to get washed while you’re at work,” I offered. “I’ll also pick up another set too. I’ve got a feeling we’re going to need it!”

“Thank you, that would be helpful.” I looked back at Ruth and couldn’t help grunting out a chuckle. There were crusty trails on her belly from when I pulled out and crawled up to look at and kiss her, and there was multiple glops of dried goop matted into the fur of her inner thighs.

“You weren’t kidding when you said I made a mess!” She tilted my face back up and she was smiling brightly.

“No, and I wasn’t kidding about you making me happy either.” She lowered her head and kissed me, letting out a happy groan as her thinner lips met mine. My nose pressed up against her soft fleshy muzzle and the warm breath from her nostrils on my face felt wonderful. Almost immediately she slid her thick tongue in my mouth, filling it in a way that no human ever could, and I moaned with delight. I ran my hands over the curve of Ruth’s hips, once again enjoying the shape, and I didn’t think I could ever tire of feeling her fur between my fingers. Unfortunately, after only a few seconds Ruth pulled back abruptly and took a deep breath.

“Unfortunately, I don’t have time to get carried away again.” She glanced down hungrily at my rapidly hardening member. “As much as I would like to...” she added quietly before forcing herself to look away.

“Alright, let’s get you ready for work!” I exclaimed as I physically turned Ruth around. I swatted her butt playfully and she yelped, then giggled. Taking a second to glance back, she glared in irritation, but the happy swinging of her tail showed her true feelings. She left the room with me following close behind.

On our way to the bathroom I found myself unable to tear my eyes away from her wide hips and thick thighs. I reached out and rubbed her plump rear-end with glee.

“David, I’m starting to think that taking a shower together now isn’t such a good idea,” Ruth stated without looking back. Faced with that possibility I pulled my hand away.

“Alright, I’ll behave...”

“Promise?” Ruth asked, turning her head to the side to see me.

“Yes ... as long as you do!” I teased, making Ruth giggle.

“That sounds fair.”

We left the bedroom and headed to the bathroom, and as we were walking through the doorway Ruth turned around.

“Could you give me a minute, I need to use the bathroom first.” I glanced between our nude bodies, and the mixture of each other’s dried fluids on us and chuckled. Ruth followed my gaze and giggled too. “I guess that is a little silly at this point.”

“Maybe, but if you’d rather have some privacy, then by all means.” I stepped back, out of the bathroom.

“No, don’t be ridiculous!” Ruth said with a laugh. “Go ahead and get the shower warmed up.”

“Will do,” I replied with a grin before getting into the massive shower. After getting the water started, I glanced through the translucent glass of the shower door Ruth’s dark blurry shape and laughed.

“Is something funny?” Ruth asked.

“Just thinking that we’re gonna have to figure out what our new normal is going to be, that’s all.” The toilet flushed and a moment later Ruth stepped into the shower.
