The Lonely Dragon

Story by Scala on SoFurry

The early morning sun had arisen far into the breaking hills, the bright light shining eagerly through the window of a dragons simple home. This dragon was in no way special, nor was he considered a ' possible mate ' to any other fur that he had met, not male, nor female.

He wasn't the best looking dragon, mind you, this is what he thought, he had a very low self esteem, as to being 17 years old and without a mate. Otherwise he was rather handsome, slick black horns, extending from the sides of his forehead, to spiral up a bit before stopping, those horns were about one and a half feet long, not a very astounding size, to him.

His emerald green eyes flashed and shone, every moment he had those sparkling beautiful peepers open, not to mention they were complimented by his deep blue scale color, which sparkled beautiful in the sun.

His long, scaley tail had extended for a good 3 feet behind him, along the top end was a sharp set of 2-5 inch spikes, the spikes within a rather long existance, had extended from the upper area of his tail, leaning down toward the end was the smaller spikes.

Now today was a day like any other, the shine was shone through his window as he laid sleepily in his bed, murmuring as the sun had awoken him due to the warm rays pressing lightly against the scales on his back.

The dragon wrenched the covers up over himself, in a poor attempt to block out the sun which so disturbed him from his sleep, but to no avail, the sun had yet still battered against him, with a single grown he threw his covers off himself, arising slowly from his bed.

His eyes opened slowly as he looked around his room, his arms stretched out lightly above himself as he scowled, staring at the sun filled sky, his emerald green eyes examined the outside, to have noticed that people were out and about.

However the dragon cared not, he simply stood up off his bed, stretching once more as he yawned a bit. " Ahh, another average day, i suppose. " Rosus said to himself. His body seeming to move in unicen with his legs to bring him out of his room, and slowly into the bathroom, where he prepared himself for the day ahead, doing this and that, brushing his sharp white teeth, cleaning off dirty scales and what not.

After he was done, he looked at himself in the mirror, sighing a bit he decided to go for some humor, in which he said " Hey sexy. " with a a smirk and chuckle, he walked out from the bathroom, down the hall toward his kitchen.

When he reached the kitchen, he decided he had not wanted anything to eat, but simply contemplated what he should have to drink, would it be coffee? No, he was not in the mood for that, would it be some soda? No, it was too early for that. " What can i have? " He said aloud to himself, before opening the fridge he looked out his kitchen window, smiling as he saw his neighbour just across from him, hustling and bustling through her kitchen.

As he went to open the fridge with a great tug, he heard a ' ting ting ting ' behind him, only to notice that the door bell alarm was going off, with a small sigh he had let go of the handle of his fridge, simply walking on over to the door which resided down the stairs on a landing from within his kitchen.

As he opened the door he was surprised to see standing there.... His neighbour!

Odd how he was just looking at her not a moment ago, but now to have her standing in his door way? Curious case, that it was. His eyes had looked into that of the vixen who stood before him, her rather small figure humored him, yet he did not laugh, infact, he found her to be quite beautiful even though she was a good bit shorter than him.

And with that, he said " Well hello there, Lily! " His deep voice almost rising into a high pitched shreik. The vixen smiled up at him, almost giggling at the crack in his voice, " Hello, Rosus. " She replied sweetly, her icy blue eyes stared into his at this point, her tail swaying from side to side as she looked up at him.

Rosus was getting nervous at this point, almost to the point where he wanted to run from the door way, but he did not, instead, he courageously invited the vixen inside his house, and to his surprise, she accepted. The dragons body had moved from the door way, allowing the vixen to enter into the dragons humble abode.

The vixen slowly walked up the stairs, her rump shaking lightly from one side to another, almost in an entrancing sort of way as Rosus had watched, but soon shook his head, deciding it was wrong to peak at a woman when she wasn't looking, yes, he had some class and morales alike.

The young vixen had soon disappeared into the dragons kitchen area, soon after the dragon flurried up the stairs and into his kitchen, to have pushed himself behind a chair, pulling it out from under the table, his voice leaving his throat with a sweet tone " Care to sit, madame? "

The vixen smiled at the dragon, sitting in the seat elegantly, " Why thank you, kind sir. " She humorously replied.

The dragon had soon taken a seat just across from the vixen, his eyes examining her curiously, yet soon the vixen had interrupted and spoke with her sweet, soft toned voice " So, what have you been up to lately, Rosus? " The dragon was almost in a trance before, now his eyes snapped up to meet the vixens, before he replied " Oh, i've just been wandering around my house as usual, occasionally leaving for food and what not, but much other than that, i don't get out very much, no reason to really. "

The vixen frowned at this, she looked down for a moment, before looking over at the dragon " Well, one of these days you should come out with me, we can go have some fun together. " Lily said, soon after smiling sweetly at the dragon.

Boy, did this ever get Rosus' heart thumping. A small sweat drop had rolled down the side of the dragons face, " Well.. Umm.. Alright. " He simply smiled back at her from there.
