Daniel Murphy's sister was determined to make him "come out of himself." Dan was pretty sure she meant "come out of his shell," but with Elaine, you never could tell. "You remind me of Emma," he told her.
She'd narrowed her eyes. "Is she some slut you haven't introduced me to?"
Dan had chuckled. "No. She's a character in a novel by Jane Austin. She's always meddling in other people's business to terrible effect." Later, he was reminded of his conversation with her after the proverbial shit had hit the fan. It had been eerily prescient.
"Oh, good! She isn't real. I only meddle for your own good, Danny," she'd said. "You need to come to this party. Sally's gonna be there, and I know how much you like Sally!"
Dan had groaned. She was going to keep tormenting him until he said yes. "Shit, Lanie!" he'd cursed at her, "I like Sally, but I like a lot of girls."
Elaine knew when she'd won. She wasn't going to press the issue. She knew he was desperate to win a scholarship to go to a good school. Their parents couldn't afford to send either of them to Junior College, let alone a good school. He'd lettered in football and track his sophomore year, and was on track to do so again this year. When he wasn't hitting the books for his AP classes, he was working out or going to football practice. He used to be a science nerd, but now he was a big, powerful football player, a good-looking jock. He probably could have fucked his way through most of the girls in the High School--and quite a few of the guys--if he'd set his mind to it. He was, however, focused on keeping his 4.0+ GPA and acquiring almost perfect SATs.
Dan had to admit, however, that he was feeling pretty burnt out. It was late-October, and he knew enough about himself that it would be a slog to get to Christmas, let alone the rest of the year, without some kind of relaxation.
"Ok," he sighed.
Lannie just smiled. "Sally's going as Little Red Riding Hood," she said. "Guess what that makes you?"
Well, fuck. "I am not going as the big bad wolf," he said flatly.
"Actually, you are, big bru."
"Shit."
There was no arguing with her.
She grabbed him by the arm and dragged him into her POS Toyota. "Can't we take my Jeep?"
"You won't let me drive it!"
"For good reason, sis. Your driving would make the nuns at school get religion. Where the hell are we going?"
"A Magic Store," she said as she aggressively navigated Denver traffic and he tried not to scream.
"Where the fuck are we?" he asked.
"We're in the River North District," she said. "RINO."
"Hipsterville," he said. "Poser pissants."
"Yeah. Just around the corner." She pulled the car into the only space in a parking lot next to a craft brewery.
"Won't the brewery be pissed off that we're taking their last parking space?"
She shrugged. "Naw. They're cool as long as werewolves don't eat their clientele before they spend money.
Werewolves. Dear God, what was his sister smoking?
They got out of the car and wended their way through some amazing metal sculptures in the courtyard into a small office.
OK. The guy behind the counter might have persuaded him that werewolves were real. Six-foot infinity, shirtless upper torso muscles stretched tightly over skin covered in hair. He spotted Dan when they walked in.
"Ah," he said in a deep voice three octaves below music, "So you're the cub."
"The cub?"
He grinned. "Yeah." Dan might have noticed that his teeth looked like fangs.
"We got your costume right here, dude," he said.
Dan looked at Lannie. "What the fuck have you gotten me into?"
She grinned. "You're going to have So Much Fun!" She actually squealed.
The werewolf guy (as Dan thought of him) disappeared in the back room, then came back with an oil-cloth bag. "Try this on for size," he said, grinning at him and showing fangs that were almost obscured by his beard. Almost, but not quite.
Dan took the bag from him. It was quite heavy.
"Make sure you're naked when you put it on." There were those teeth again.
He pointed him to a closet where he could change.
Oh, God. What the fuck was he facing here?
Dan opened the bag and pulled out two pieces. A top and a bottom. Both were covered with coarse hair. The top would be easy to put on.
The bottom, now, that was an entirely different thing.
He started with it. Two leg openings that stretched over the feet, then contracted tightly over the calves and really stretched over his football-player thighs. They were so tight, in fact, that Dan wondered if they would split or tear, but whatever elastic the base was made of, it stretched. When he pulled them to the top of his thighs, they were so tight that they looked like his own skin--only a hell of a lot more hairy.
The crotch, now, that was a problem. "Oh, hell no," Dan muttered when he pulled the skin up far enough that his balls easily dropped into the ball sack of the costume.
His dick, however. Well, that was a problem. Above the ball sack was a tube intended for his penis attached to te wall of abdomen of the fursuit..
There was no way he would be able to stuff his soft cock into that tube. However, his cock had other ideas and began to stiffen enough that he was able to slide it into the tube.
It was easy, then, to pull the costume up to above his waist, where it hugged his body like a second skin.
His cock, however, was still giving him problems and continued to harden until it completely filled the tube, which extended up to his navel, then a detached inch or so protruded from his abdomen where his swollen cockhead came to rest, completely encased in the furry sheath.
While Danny had a healthy ego when it came to his tackle, with which, unbeknownst to his sister--who was even more of a nerd than he was--he had delighted so, so, so very many cheerleaders and had actually experimented with a freshman, a really hairy guy, who drew the short straw to be the Mascot. However, Danny knew his johnson shouldn't be stretched the entire length of his lower abdomen. His alarm grew as his erection went down, leaving him with his elongated member still quite snug in the sheath.
Tentatively, he touched it and, sure enough, felt a bone that had somehow grown inside the length of his shaft. He pulled the sheath back slightly and looked in horror at his glans, which while maintaining a human shape, had turned a blood red color.
He might have whimpered.
The "werewolf" clerk had to have been standing right outside the curtained cubby. "You okay in there, boy?" he asked as he pulled the curtain aside. Admiring the boy, he muttered, "Damn, son, you look mighty fine. Time to put on the top."
Dan shook his head. "I've decided against this costume," he stammered. "I'd like to take it off!"
The clerk grinned, showing even more of the fangs that scissored in the corners of his mouth. "Too late for that, boy. You're stuck with the pelt for 72 hours."
"Then it'll be gone?" Dan asked hopefully.
Another toothsome grin. "Sumpin' lak 'at."
Gingerly, Dan picked up the top. Like the bottom, it was hair-covered. It was also much too small for his muscular torso and arms, he discovered as he attempted to pull it over his head.
"Let me help you with that," the clerk growled as he helped the boy pull it on, smoothing it over his back and pulling down the sleeves, which were surprisingly long enough to stretch down over the tops of his hands.
The top was every bit as tight as the leggings had been, stretching over his flesh so tightly that it might have been his own skin. His very hairy skin.
Dan walked out of the dressing room, followed by the clerk. He surveyed himself nervously in the floor-to-ceiling mirrors, trying to avoid looking at his genitals, which the suit/pelt had turned into a generous canine sheathe reaching to his navel, while fur-covered testicles depended heavily from between his legs. "I feel more naked than I did before I put this on." He peered at his image more closely. "I can't even see where the top meets the bottom," he murmured.
The clerk smiled and put his hands on the youth's shoulders. "For the next few days, this is what naked will feel like," he said, ignoring the comment about the fact that the two halves of the pelt had somehow grown together.
He walked over to a rack of clothes and pulled out a leather kilt. "Here, try this on."
"A kilt? Why would I wear a kilt?"
"Because your tackle is now wolf-like. Jeans would have to ride above your navel to fit. Even dress slacks don't ride that high on the waist any more."
"That makes sense." He wrapped the garment around his waist, just above his navel, and marveled at what he looked like. The kilt complimented the werewolf costume. The clerk then came back with a baggy long-sleeved shirt that easily fit over the pelt.
"Not so nekked now," he observed. With the exception of his hairy lower legs.
"So what about fangs and a tail?" Dan surprised himself as he was becoming comfortable with his bizarre costume.
The clerk grinned, giving Dan a flash of his own fangs. "That comes later," he said mysteriously.
Somehow that didn't sound very encouraging, and Dan again began second-guessing what he'd let his sister talk him into.
