Jay's Love (Prologue)
I tagged this submission as no-yiff because there isn't any in this but there most likely will be in the next part(s) to it, this is just the beginning of the story. I wanted to portray Jay as a jock type who's kinda stuck in the situation of being gay & in love with a boy while not having the courage to admit it. Feedback is greatly appreciated <3

None of us knew his real name, but everyone called him Kit. He was the most beautiful kitten I've ever seen. He had a small build & pure tan fur, with a fuzzy white belly that he always loved to show off in light colored feminine tops. His blonde shaggy hair always hid his big green eyes, but sometimes I would get a small glance of them & I would smile every time I saw them. He would always hang out in the park with his friends, I didn't know any of them but I would always ask a few of my friends to come play football or something in the park just so I could see him. Every time I would play with my friends until we got worked & we would all just sit on the grass together to rest. My friends would talk to each other and I would usually tune them out, staring at Kit from the other side of the field. I would always think about walking up to him... just to hear his voice but I never had the courage. But today was different, I played a little football with my friends & we were resting in the grass. The slight summer breeze was tickling my nose as it passed by, the branches on the trees bordering the park shuffling. My friends were talking to each other and I was staring at Kit. He was talking to one of his friends, holding a book. I loved the way his ears would perk up when he said something excitedly, how he was happy with who he was and was always filled with joy. He was free...
"Jay? Hellooo?" Josh waved his hand in front of my face, laughing at me. "Did you hear me?"
I looked back at him, sensing that I had a dazed look on my face. "What? Sorry, I was just thinking about something"
"Geez Jay, can't keep your mind off tits long enough to pay attention" He showed me his wolf-like grin, but I grinned back, staring him down with my masked raccoon eyes.
"Sorry Josh, your moms were the best though. I think we can all agree." Everyone in our group chuckled, and some said "Yup!" out loud. Josh just shrugged and continued.
"Well, what I was just saying is that we should all come to my house because my parents are still away and we could have a little fun!"
"Your mom's not home? But I still owe her for that...nevermind..." Everyone laughed at the expense of Josh's mom while he raised his fist to me playfully.
"Keep it up, Jay..." He gave me a look before standing up. "Party at my house!"
Josh started to walk away and everyone followed him, everyone except me. "Aren't you coming?" He called out.
"In a sec, I'm going to go to the bathroom" they continued walking from the park while I looked back at where Kit was before but I didn't see him, or his friends. The only people I saw were people I didn't know. I slowly walked to the facilities in the middle of the park but I didn't really need to go. I walked up to the water fountain, pressing the button with my thumb and lapping at the water, the cool splash feeling so refreshing against my dry tongue. I drank a few gulps of it before letting go of the button, turning around before feeling a jolt of surprise surge through my body.
"Ahh!" I let out a shriek of surprise, Kit was standing right behind me. He jumped back a little after I screamed, tripping and falling backward on the grass, his book slipping from his hands.
"Oof!" he looked up at me startled, still laying on the grass.
"S-sorry" I held my hand out to help him up, he grabbed it, looking up at me. His paw was so warm & soft, I didn't want to let go...
I helped him up slowly before picking up his book for him. "I didn't mean to scare you"
"It's okay" his ears perked a little while he smiled at me, his soft voice making my own ears perk. He turned back around to the water fountain, drinking from it while I slowly walked away, whispering softly to myself and making sure nobody could hear...
"...I love you..."
