XD and I'm rhe author) anyways this is my first book that I am publishing so please R&R. reviews are most welcome it will tell me what I absolutely NEED to work on for future chapters and future stories (I have a lot more plans in mind this was a first. It came to me when I was cooking French Toast one day {hence BAKERY}no shit). And now without any further Adeu I proudly present to you...
Star Fox Bakery
For years now I have been working in this bakery as a baker and a bit of a janitor. I took over my dads business after he got called off world to tend to something personal he never did say just what it was but, I knew that it had to be important for him to leave in such a rush and leave me in complete control of the family bakery, it wasn't a very big bakery, the store front were the customers used to pick out what they wanted was about the size of your average living room give or take. I have had many costumers over the years but one costumer catches my attention most of all. I don't know her name still we've never introduced formerly to one another. Shes very cute, hell, even HOT. She is a blue vixen, I presume an off worlder, but I am sures hell not going to jump to any unnecessary conclusions. But anyway, she tells me that she only comes here to my store because she has never had problems with my service, speaking of which here she comes now.
The door chime rang off as as she opened the door and crossed the threshold into the bakery. The blue vixen was wearing a shorter sleeve T-shirt that and an imprinted design on it and she was wearing skinny figure-fitting jeans and lastly a pair of flats.
"Hello ma'am," Fox said politely with a smile as he continued to spray down the stainless steel counter area and wiped it dry "what can I do for you today?"
"Oh just the usual today sir." the nice looking polite woman said in her heavenly accented voice with a smile as she went over to the bread section further away from Fox.
'Oh god that smile. I could stare at that smile for days,' Fox thought to himself 'and that body, oh that gorgeous body of hers holy Krazoa, I don't want to think anything dirty about it but I sure want to though. Shes so fit and sexy looking. I'm sure if she entered in a beauty contest she would just slaughter and mop the floor with all of the other contestants using their metaphorical blood for the cleaner' Fox thought to himself and then paused while scratching the back of his head 'but then again I don't even know her name, or where she comes from for that matter. Foolish me, maybe I could pull up enough courage to ask her what her name is, but then again I'd probably just pussy out like I did the last ten times.' Fox said to himself in his mind as he sighed and went back to work pulling fresh bread out of the oven not realizing that the woman he adored so much was a telepath and heard all that Fox had said about her. With her back toward him she smiled deviously and restrained her laughter and thanks toward Fox. Once she was done collecting what she needed for the dinner party she was going to later she went up to where the cashier was who was Fox because he was the only one owning and operating the bakery. When the woman had first started coming to the store she asked Fox if there were any other people that worked with him in the store and he said no he was too worried about people stealing his family's secret recipes that he uses on a daily basis. The girl walked up to the counter just as a loud chime went off.
"Uh, sorry miss I will be right with you, I don't want my croissants drying out in the oven."
"Oh it's no big deal,, I'll wait," the nice girl said "besides," she chuckled "I absolutely love the smell of freshly baked croissants."
"Would you like a fresh one," Fox offered "it's on the house I insist." 'What are you doing Fox your going to come off way to strong for a girl like her... wait then again you don't even know what her name is-'
"I would love one, thank you sir." the girl said
"Please, call me Fox." Fox said as he pulled the tray of croissants from the oven and walked back over to the till "Here you are, pick one."
"Fox huh," the girl said picking up a croissant looking deep into his jade green eyes. "that's a wonderful name." making Fox blush.
"Well uh... thanks." Fox said walking back over to the stove to put the baking sheet down.
"Not a problem." the girl said. 'Damn he is so cute, kind and polite, of course being polite is his job but what about his thoughts...' the girl said to herself in her mind trailing off. "Oh my name is Krystal by the way, I almost forgot." Krystal said, nervously chuckling to go with it as Fox went up to the till.
"Krystal, that's such a lovely name." Fox said as he gazed into her blue sapphire eyes and put his paw out to shake her hand. "It is a pleasure to meet you." he added before he kissed her paw
Krystal immediately blushed and cutely said "Aw thanks, your too kind." 'I can honestly swear I'm never going to wash that paw ever again.'
"No problem Krystal." Fox said as he intentionally entered in the wrong order "that'll be... WHAT! 200 credits. No that's not right." Fox said as he removed the black bakers apron to reveal a tightly toned buff body under a rather tight, white t-shirt. "I'm going to go and check this out." Fox said as he hopped over the counter and walked over to the bread section.
'What the hell is he talking about, that I'M hot holy shit did you see that chest daaaaaaaamn what I would do to see what that shirts hiding. Now, back to what I was saying... oh yeah, I'M hot. Yeah right' she laughed to herself in her mind 'I'm afraid if I touch him I'll spontaneously combust-' Krystal thought as she nibbled on the croissant Fox gave her.
"Ah here's the problem, I added one too many nines into the order number. Sorry about that delay." Fox said hoping she wouldn't be too mad at his intentional screw up.
"Oh, its fine." Krystal said dreamily then corrected herself after she found out what she said and how she said it. "I mean, it's fine." she said emotionless and went a little pink under her fur and looked away from the man that she thought was sexually attractive.
"Ok." Fox said as he climbed over the counter 'Ok was it just me or was she under a spell, I've seen that before in many other women and it seems to always happen around me.' "So that will be 15 credits please, miss."
"Ok one second please." Krystal said as she looked in her purse.
'Come on you pussy, ask her, ask her for her phone number. Fox, you have known her for a few years now. You may not have known her name but still shes been coming to your store for years. YOUR store nobody else's. Now ask her for her number so you can call this girl and hear her heavenly voice whenever you want-'
"Fox?" Krystal asked confused like
'-to and ask her ou-'
"Fox?!" Krystal half shouted worriedly at Fox worried he is starting to have a heart attack she quickly waved her hand in front of Fox's muzzle
"Huh, what? Oh sorry Krystal I was in a bit of a trance-"
"You were thinking about me weren't you?!" Krystal backed away from the till a bit then put her hands on her hips and shouted making Fox's ears go back to defend against the mid-pitched, accented voice screaming at him.
"I was but it honestly wasn't what you think, please, let me explain." Fox cried out as he put his hands up near his chest. 'Oh god your in for a shit kickin' now boy, ha ha ha,'
"Okay, you got thirty seconds to explain before I knock you on your ass." Krystal scolded
'Oh look at that, your getting off easy.' "Well my conscience was trying to get me to ask you for your number because well I think your very cute and-"
The enraged Krystal lost control of what she said and let out an answer she didn't want Fox to hear just yet. "I know."
"-I wanted to take you... out and- what? how do you- what do you mean you know?"
"That doesn't matter now. What matters now is that I'm sorry for flipping out on you." Krystal said as she looked away from Fox and realized she still hadn't paid for her bread so she pulled out 20 credits and one of her business cards and gave it to him. "Keep the change its part of... of my apology." Krystal said as she wiped a tear from her eye feeling bad for how she freaked out and threatened Fox she grabbed her buns (not those buns you sick freaks) and left.
'Two weeks have gone by and Krystal still hasn't returned to my store, Oh, I hope she's okay. I know she is a grown adult or "young adult" but I still care about people. Did I really fuck up that bad? I hope not. I enjoy her company and I kinda like her. I felt like... nah there no such thing as 'love-at-first-sight'. I'll give her a call business has been quite slow lately and I need someone to talk to right now' Fox picked up Krystal's business card and looked at it. 'wow she owns and runs her own yoga studio, that's great, no wait, that's awesome. Wait, hang on, I'll call her after I've closed up shop for the night, yeah not a bad idea you know in case she comes by. I doubt it but you never know what the future holds. And I really have to stop having full conversations with myself.' Fox said shaking his head in disappointment. Fox closed up shop and went home for the evening. At his one bedroom bachelor apartment he finally sucked up his courage and called Krystal, he dialled the first number on the card. "Hello you have reached Krystal Fit. My domain is closed for the evening but your call is important to me, please leave your name and number at the to-" *click* 'wrong number, lets try this one'
*dial tone, ring, ring* and a girl answered on the other line "hello?"
"Uh, hi is this Krystal?" Fox said in the call
"Um yes, who might you be sir?"
"Oh my name is Fox, we met officially met a couple of weeks ago in my store..."
"Ah yes, now I remember. So what can I do for you Foxy?"
'Foxy, I kinda like it.' "Well I was just wondering... Er, well, I mean, if you want to..." *sigh* "I was wondering if you wanted to go to dinner with me sometime." Thinking he would get rejected he sat down on his loveseat and started to rub the back of his neck.
*pause on the call* "Are you sure you have the right number Fox?"
Fox chuckled "Yes I am-" gets put on hold.
~X~X~X~X~
Krystal squealed "Yay I cant believe I didn't screw up with the one, true, nice hot guy that I adore, AND I GET TO GO TO DINNER WITH HIM TOO!" Krystal squealed and jumped up and down like a little kit would do, the she realized that Fox was still on hold
~X~X~X~X~
"Hello? Krystal? Are you still there? Hello?"
"Yes hello, sorry I had a pot on the stove that was about to boil over," Krystal lied. "I would love to go to dinner with you Fox."
"Great, so what time would be good for you Krystal?"
"Any time Saturday, if that's any good for you?" Krystal inquired
"Yeah its great, so I'll pick you up at seven?"
"Yup that's good. I will text you the address. See you then Fox." Krystal said overjoyed at the fact that she gets to spend personal after hours with Fox.
"Okay." *click* Fox said as Krystal hung up the phone. 'way to go Foxy your going out with the hottest girl you have ever seen or met. DON'T CHOKE THIS TIME!'
~X~X~X~X~
"YAY! I cant believe it I'm going to a nice dinner with the polite, young Fox... uh, I don't know his last name. SHIT I don't know his LAST NAME who the hell am I, wait did he even tell me. Mmmm, no, no I don't believe he has. okay great calm down Krystal your going to find out tomorrow." Krystal said calmly and then shrieked with joy "I'm going to find out tomorrow. Wait tomorrow, what am I going to wear. Oh no what am I going to do?" as she buried her face in her hands and let her ears droop. "Ah that's it," as Krystal perked up with joy and snapped her fingers. "I will wear that dress." she said as she as she jumped out of her seat and ran into her room and pulled a nice sleek metallic blue dress out of her closet and raised it in front of herself in the portrait mirror. "perfecto."
~X~X~X~X~
"I cant believe it, I just cannot believe that I'm going out with the hottest and most fit girl I have ever met. I wonder what she can do... no don't think that. I refuse to think that about such a beautiful person, but you gotta admit it is hard not to... stop it Fox, your better than that, now, what are we gonna wear? A suit will do hopefully she wears a dress so I wont look so... erm... classy as you would call it." Fox said aloud to himself. "I'll just put a change of clothes into the trunk of my car in case I need to 'step down'. Right its settled then I'm going to wear a suit with this blue and white striped dress tie. I hope she likes it." *yawn* "I'm going to bed I have a big day ahead of me tomorrow."
During Fox's sleep Fox felt a strange force but not a very noticeable one, Fox was not alarmed he fell fast asleep and during which he had felt another presence with him but the presence wasn't a physical one, it was mental. Fox started having a strange dream but he started to enjoy it more and more as he fell into an even deeper slumber.
"Hey Krystal, you look exquisite tonight." Fox said as he opened the passenger door of his car and escorted her onto her seat making sure she didn't trip in the process.
"Thanks, you look so handsome tonight as well Foxy." Krystal said as she made sure that she was fully inside the vehicle, dress and all.
"Thanks," Fox said warmly as he shut the door to the car. then he walked around the car and got in to the driver seat. "Where would you like to eat tonight?"
"McDonald's." Krystal said and started to laugh hysterically "I'm only joking fox. Um lets see, lets see. How bout The Keg?"
"That sounds enticing," Fox said as he put his Corvair into gear and drove off. "yeah lets go there, unless you have any other ideas we could try?"
"Nope The Keg sounds just fine by me." Krystal said surly nodding her head.
"Okay, well if your fine by that, I'm fine by that." Fox said with a growing grin on his face.
"I'm more than fine by it." Krystal said as she looked over to
Fox.
"That's good. So, I hear that you own your own yoga studio. How has that worked out?" Fox asked with enthusiasm
"Good. It's been good, not too many guys come to do yoga though. In fact I think there's only been one guy, he was gay as well. I'm not against that or anything though it's just that he was pretty cute and it's too bad that he didn't want to have kits naturally I did kind of liked him in that way. It was a bit of a let down you know? But oh well I met you." Krystal said dreamily as she looked at Fox and closed her eyes peacefully.
"Aw thanks Krystal that's so sweet, and I've been meaning to give yoga a try and now that I know of one place that I can go I feel more likely to do so." Fox said reassuringly
Krystal chuckled "No problem Fox, and I was thinking, well if your up for it, because you look really strong, that I can give you a personal one on one yoga session." 'nude would be perfect *evil laugh*' Krystal said keeping the nude out of the picture.
"Well that sure would be nice, are you sure it wouldn't be a burden to you though?" Fox asked politely.
"Oh of course not I would love to train you personally" 'What the fuck Krystal your gonna scare him off like the others-'
"Well, in that case I would really appreciate that, thanks." Fox said in a more delighted tone.
"Oh it's no problem, really" 'whew that was close' Krystal stated
"Okay. Here we are." Fox said as he parked the car and went around to the passenger side and helped Krystal out of the car. 'was it just me or did that car ride take a really long time.'
"Wow, even the sign looks delicious." Krystal gapped as she stepped out of the car.
"Just wait till we get inside." Fox chuckled "It will smell as good as it looks. Here." Fox said as he put out his arm for Krystal to grasp onto as they walked though the dark and gloomy parking lot. "Do you hear that?" Fox asked as he was really puzzled.
"What's that love? I don't hear anything." Krystal said as she let go of Fox's arm and vanished as Fox wasn't looking.
"That buzzing sound- Krystal? Krystal!? AH- whats that light? WHAT THE FU-"
Fox yelled as he woke up *smash* "you mother-. Bitch I was having the best dream of my little live. That's the last time YOU end it you little cock block. Now what did you read before I broke you into little bits? 9:30 that's right. Time to get some chow and start ironing my clothes before tonight. Ah tonight, Krystal looked so damn beautiful in that blue dress of hers in my dream. I wonder what will happen after we get to The Keg." Fox started to talk to himself about several random topics of the day. Then a knock at the door was heard
"Hell- Krystal what are you doing here?" Fox asked intuitively.
Krystal has *face-palm* "I didn't know this is where you lived, just across the hall from me." Krystal said as she lowered her hand "Well I guess there's no need for foreplay later," Krystal giggled "your just wearing your boxer shorts after all" Krystal giggled and snapped the waistband of his boxers against him gently as she was just playin'. Fox was wearing his standard pair of genuine black boxer shorts, the ones with the X-box three sixty logo on it with the caption underneath it that said 'this is mine, but you can play with it.'
"Yeah, sorry, oh goodness me where are my manners. Please come in and have a seat, I was just about to make bacon and eggs. Would you like to join me?"
"Oh I would love to. Are you sure I wouldn't be intruding on your privacy though?"
"Of course not I would love to have you for breakfast, I mean have you over for breakfast." Fox said as he started to blush fiercely and scratch the back of his head in embarrassment. He could barely hold himself together from the shear beauty that stood before him, Krystal in a tight aqua blue tank top that fashioned her tribal tattoos on her right and left upper arms and showed the outline of her bra rather well and also her elegant feminine curves and lastly she was wearing a pair of yoga shorts with the emblem KF on the right thigh.
Krystal raised her paw to her mouth and giggled. "Ok then I just have to lock up my apartment and I'll be right back."
"Ok I'll get crackin'." 'First I have to get more clothes on instead of just these boxers that are so inviting to have the girl of my dreams come and play with me in that way.'
"Ok, be back soon." 'Holy Krazoa did you see that chest, I could fall asleep on him any day, it looks so hard, yet so soft and inviting. I'm not going to be demanding but I sure hope he invites me in for a night cap so I can test out my hypothesis.' "Hey Fox, I'm back." *Shuts door behind her* "Fox?"
"Just getting dressed Krystal, be right out." Replied a muffled voice from the bedroom.
"Okay." 'Aw man. He's getting dressed. Oh well. I guess I can't change that, or can I?' Krystal thought mischievously to herself as she took a seat on the plush blue loveseat in Fox's living room. 'nah... in due time.'
"There, now to make breakfast." Fox said as he opened his bedroom door and stepped out closing the door behind him. Fox was wearing a navy blue t-shirt and black track pants. "How do you like your eggs Krystal?"
"Cooked." Krystal said as both she and Fox broke out in a fit of united laughter. "Oh-ho um, over easy. Ugh I cant stand sunny side, its disgusting."
"Wow, I feel the same about that. What about your toast? I have raisin bread, whole wheat and flax."
"Mmm raisin toast, tempting but, I always eat whole wheat with my eggs."
"Damn, are you sure you can't read minds?" Fox inquired.
"Oh, of course not." Krystal laughed but in the back of her mind she was nervous as hell on how to tell Fox that she was a telepath.
"Oh, okay." Fox said partially sarcastically as he walked into the kitchen. 'I know that something is up Krystal' Fox thought and then turned around to see Krystal with her hand over her muzzle in disbelief.
"Oh my god, how did you know?" Krystal asked in complete shock and awe.
"Lucky guess, I guess." Fox remarked "Nah remember you came to my store that one day and you freaked out on me and you let me explain..."
"Yeah, what about it?" Krystal asked dumbfounded as she tilted her head and cocked an eyebrow.
"and you snapped back at me when I was and you said I know"
"Oh yeah, so you figured you would would try to prove that I'm a telepath, by thinking that I'm a telepath to see if I was listening,"
"Yup." Fox concurred.
"And your thoughts, you knew that from the start that I would be able to hear them?" Krystal concluded.
"yup." Fox concurred again.
"So all you did here was create a theory and execute the plan?"
"yup."
"And that means your gay right?" Krystal asked slyly.
Not catching on to what she said right away, "yup- wait, what, no, I'm not gay." Fox tried to defend himself but Krystal couldn't hear him over her riled-up laughter and this made fox blush fiercely and you could see it even through his fur it was that bad.
"Relax Fox I know your not. Remember?" Krystal said as she tapped the side of her head with her finger.
"Right," fox said holding the 'I' for a longer period. "telepath."
Krystal giggled "Yup. And might I ask you something?"
"What's that?" Fox questioned.
"Are you mad at me. I mean for not telling you earlier that I was-" Krystal started and then was stopped by Fox.
"A telepath?" Fox chuckled "no, I am no telepath but... I sensed a certain, uh, connection between the two of us."
"What kind of connection?" asked Krystal as she moved over on the loveseat and motioned for Fox to sit down and join her. "Please, sit, tell me. Don't worry I won't bite." Krystal chuckled 'much' she thought to herself.
Fox took a seat, "well I had this... dream as you call it and you were in it, it started when I came to your place and picked you up for dinner. You were wearing a one shoulder metallic blue dress and then we decided in going to The Keg for dinner after we had a laugh over you saying you wanted to go to McD's. So after that you asked me if I wanted to be personally trained in yoga by you and then I said yes I would love to and then we got to The Keg and I helped you out of the car and we started to walk across the parking lot to the keg when my alarm started to go off and then you let go of my arm and vanished into thin air and then I woke up."
Krystal gasped 'It can't be, not this soon. It's never come this fast before. Unless. We are destined to be together?'
Fox asked worriedly. "Are you okay?"
"Huh, oh yeah I'm great. Just me zoning out." the blue furred vixen said and then gave a nervous chuckle.
Fox cocked and eyebrow to this.
Krystal sighed. "You caught me mister McCloud." Krystal said throwing her arms in the air. "I am from a planet on the edge of the Lylat called, Cerinia. Us Cerinians all have telepathic abilities, and with these abilities come certain, uh, how do I put this? "side effects". These include mental bonds with the ones you love the most such as, family members, children and mates or as you Cornerians call it, your spouse or relationship partner.These bonds include being able to sense when someone is in despair, hurt physically or emotionally, being able to find them if needed and lastly which rarely happens dream sharing."
"Wait, wait, are you implying that we shared a dream last night?" Fox asked with inquiry.
"I'm more than positive we did. I had the same dream last night." Krystal nodded keeping very calm while Fox was starting to break down.
"So your saying-" Fox started.
"That we have a mental bond? Yes I am afraid so."
"So what does this mean?" Fox asked with a bit of a jumpy pitch in his voice.
"Fox, I'm sorry but-" Krystal started
"But what Krystal? Your scaring me!"
"We are destined to be together." Krystal said to him putting her hands on his shoulders and shook him out of his frenzy.
'WHAT THE F-' "So how can these mental bonds be broken?"
Krystal let go of Fox and looked at the beige carpeted floor in a heart pressed moment and then she cleared her throat. "The only way I know of is... death."
Fox was so traumatized from this that he felt like he was going to throw up. "I'm sorry. Did you just say, death?"
Krystal started to cry. "Yes. Fox, I am so sorry I didn't know that destiny wanted us to become one with another."
Fox scooted over a little and grasped Krystal in a loving caring embrace and whispered into her ear. "Hey, hey, it's okay. It's not your fault."
"I feel like somehow it is." Krystal replied as she buried her head into Fox's masculine chest. "I feel like my power has made me into a freak of nature and that's why I moved here from Cerinia to see if I can escape it all.
"No your most defiantly not a freak Krystal, and don't think like that. From what I understand it's against your will, and we can still make it work trust me. I will do everything in my power to make it work so don't you worry about it."
*sniffle* "Okay, I feel better now just talking to you about this." Krystal pulled a weak smile and hugged Fox tight.
"That's good to hear." Fox said as he embraced her back. 'are you still hungry?' he thought
Krystal chuckled 'your not mad at me? You still adore me?'
"Of course I'm not mad at you. And yes obviously I still adore you, I take it you heard me in my store when I said you should enter a beauty contest."
"Yeah, it took me all my power and strength to keep from laughing and thanking you because so many of my friends have said the same things."
"You should though I bet you would be great at it."
"Oh, I know that." Krystal said smiling deviously "I just want to be able model for one person and that is all."
"Who?" Fox asked with inquiry.
"You'll find out one day." Krystal said and then kissed Fox on the cheek. "Do you need any help cooking, baker Fox?"
"Uh, me, um. What was the question again?" Asked a stunned orange Fox McCloud that was put into a trance from the powerful kiss that Krystal delivered Fox, sure it may not have been on the lips but it still put him into a babbling coma.
