That's right, after so long I have finished and typed chapter three, I hope it's up to scratch for everyone, yes please to criticism and definitely yes to ratings, I want your opinions! please =3

To the story:

Dave moved away from the window after a little while he opened his drawers and pulled out a loose shirt, black with Motor Head written across the top and their main logo. He loved their music and had been to a few of their concerts already, he first found their music while playing a game, Tony Hawks, it was an old one, and he loved listening to 'Ace of spades' while pulling off huge trick.

Dave walked over to his bag and sorted himself out for today's lessons, first he had English, reasonably boring as they were doing Shakespeare, next it was Food Tech, no cooking today but oh well and then History, Math and finally PE, that meant trampoline's he'd been practicing his back flips, each week he put off actually doing it, this week he was decided he would do it.

He picked up his now stuffed bag and went downstairs, sure enough his dad was ready and eating his breakfast, "Mornin'" He said raising his free paw while setting down his bag by the door, turning around he went into the kitchen for some food, his tail sweeping the floor as he passed his dad.

Vic looked up from his swirling milk and smiled "Morning, feeling cheery?"

"Always" Dave replied with a smirk while he got his breakfast, it didn't take long to finish it, his dad leaving before hand, after a little while watching TV Dave put on his bag and went outside locking up, wheeling his mountain bike from the shed he got on and rode off towards school.

About fifteen minutes later he reached his school, it was pretty new, now only a few years old and with a decent look, it was specialized in computers and math so typically there was a lot of computers in the school and plenty of math's, unfortunately Dave personally thought as he got of his bike pulling up to the bike racks.

After locking his bike the white tiger began to walk through the main door when he heard someone calling him "Dave!" he looked back to see another white tiger approaching fast, almost a red and white blur, instantly Dave recognized who it was, it was Joseph, better known as Tiger was running up to meet him people called him Tiger rather than his real name mainly because of his abilities, he was a lot stronger and more agile than most, he was the perfect anthro of a Tiger as far as most were concerned.

Tiger finally came to a standstill next to Dave giving a toothy grin as the color of his fur caught up with him, his red head fur visible through his backwards base ball cap, the tuft sticking out wavering a little in the breeze, Tiger stood about 6 foot tall, give or take an inch, he had the usual white tiger fur, white fur all over with the typical stripped pattern, although his stripes were a Navy blue it was the slight difference that set him out.

His code of dress was often a smart casual, with baggy jeans in almost any weather and a T-shirt often over the top of his Tee he would wear a open shirt flowing over it often matching his tee, he was pretty good at color coding so this wasn't really a problem for him, especially when doing one of his most favorite things in the world, Raving and sometimes being the DJ at a rave.

"Whoa tiger, where's the fire?" Dave said chuckling a little to himself

"You know I always run that fast, now if there was a fire--"Tiger began

"I know, Tiger I know how fast you can go" he said rolling his eyes he opened the door for tiger who appreciably walked in and waited for Dave who quickly followed through "So how was your week-end" Dave asked smiling.

"Usual, good sleep in and a late rave" He said with a smirk "In fact..," He began reaching into his pocket and pulled out a few un-used glow sticks "Want a souvenir from what you missed? He said offering a blue one over grinning widely

Dave took it and smiled before pocketing it for later use, a bit of a waste when the suns out, "Thanks, and I told you why I couldn't go, I had a paintball game planned, of which you didn't go to"

"Yeah I needed to set up a deck, you know it was last minute" Tiger said countering Dave

"True, but next time no excuses, or I'll have to bring my paintball gun, in for a show and tell, I show how it works, and you tell how much it hurts" Dave chuckled lightly and was soon joined by Tiger

The two were already at their form class and walking in seeing Calum already sat half asleep with his head on the table, and Mischa was texting on her mobile, Mischa was a brown tabby cat with different shades of brown with black gothic head fur, she was initially a Goth and so dressed as one. Her attire was often a Corset and Skirt all in black along with a black tail ring a third of the way on her tail along and her body also complimented the cloths, not only in her posture but her deep purple eyes that could not only melt ones heart but at the same time pierce.

Both Calum and Mischa looked up when they heard the door open, Calum soon turned back to his daze, possibly mulling over something or just having a good dream. Mischa's reaction was a little livelier, she smiled happily waving towards the two tigers that returned the wave and walked over.

"Morning" she said to them both turning off her phone and pocketing it before leaning on one paw and smiling looking at the two

"Mornin'" Dave said smiling and sitting down

"Yo" Tiger said simply following suit and sitting down next to Dave and opposite Mischa

"So how are you this morning?" Mischa asked looking at the two tigers

"All right" They both said in Unison

Mischa giggled a little "If it weren't for the color of your stripes, head fur and cloths I would mistake you two for twins" She giggled lightly "But I reckon you'd make a good couple"

The two Tigers blushed gently Dave chuckled lightly trying to hide his embarrassment, he wasn't gay or bisexual as far as he knew, and again as far as he knew Tiger wasn't either, but still the initial thought of it did get Dave thinking,and what he didn't notice was Tiger looking straight at Dave with a smirk painted on his maw.

Dave quickly shook off this thought as more students walked in, looking at the clock there was five minutes till the lessons started "Better get to our seats before Sam and his pack get here" he said getting up and putting the seat back, Sam and his pack of cronies included Ben and Alex, Sam himself was a grey wolf he was well toned for his age and was the leader of the other two, his dominance blinding him at the best of times, all in all he was a moron, who's bite for once was stronger than his bark, although his understanding of the illiterate language did usually only consist of two syllable words, the occasional three, but that was getting scientific.

His cronies, Ben and Alex were both Hyena's, obviously more submissive than Sam although Ben did have something between his ears, whether it was brain or somehow he'd managed to tune a box in his head to pick up discovery channel Dave wasn't sure, and wasn't really bothered to try and find out. Alex on the other hand was really just there to hold whoever they were beating up at the time, he wasn't as strong as Ben or Sam but his grip was like iron, unless you knew how to get out of it, or if you were Tiger and just too fast to catch.

Tiger also got up and walked over sitting next to Calum Dave sitting on the other side, tiger looked at Dave grinning, and Dave nodded. One of Tigers favorite things to do was confuse Calum, and as Mischa had said earlier, except for the stripe and head fur color Dave and himself were virtually the same, Tiger slightly more toned but not noticeable through his top, he handed Dave his cap silently who put it on forwards and Tiger took out another cap from his bag and put it on the same way Dave had, hiding his head fur.

"Hey Calum" Dave said with a smile on his face

Calum looked up at him "Tiger? Oh you haven't..." he said turning to look at Tiger smiling back

"So who's who Calum" Tiger asked

"You should know by now, it's been what, four years since we started this game,"

"And you still can't tell the difference" Tiger finished

Calum looked between the two and leant in closer and smiled "Well the Tiger on the right," He said looking at Dave "Is Dave, I know because Tiger hasn't had a wash since the Rave, and it smells like it went a little further as well and he isn't the only one" he said winking at Dave.

The Two Tigers Blushed deeply at Calums words, Calum who thought this highly amusing chuckled and played on it more so, "Are you two official then, or have neither of you asked the other out yet?" He said letting out a laugh

The two tigers couldn't be any brighter, both of them un-sure of what to say or do, both bright red, It could only be described as an extreme pink, not quite red, but well past the initial pink color that could be seen on a cub after his first kiss.

"Well, what's happened to you to, try bathing with your mums red dress? Or were you both bathing with one of your mum's dresses" A husky voice said, the voice belonged to Sam who chuckled to himself

"Nice one Sam" Alex said chomping down on another stick of gum, laughing a little. The only reason Sam became friends with Alex and Ben was because they were Hyenas, and no matter how bad the joke was, it was compulsive for them to laugh, which was shown here as they both giggled at the joke.

The two tigers quickly lost the color in their fur, and Tiger smirked "Well that doesn't beg the question, to why Alex is putting more gum in his mouth, he preparing for your morning kiss, or is he attempting to get rid of a taste in his maw?" Tiger said giving Dave a glance who was smiling widely at this.

"Be careful what you say Tiger, You may be fast, But you can't always watch your back" Sam said Glaring at Tiger, Dave ignored as usual.

"Yeah, careful what you say stripes" Alex said attempting to help Sam, all he got was a quick roll of the eyes from Ben before he decided he'd keep quite from now on.

With that and a few more grumbles, Tiger had successfully pissed off Sam, "You know I think that's a new Record" Tiger said smiling happily

"Well your come backs are becoming funnier" Dave said smiling back.

A little while of idle chatting passed, Furs slowly filtering into the class, this included their tutor, Simon Gray, or Mr. Gray as the pupils (and you will know him) Mr. Gray was a Grey tabby cat, his head fur a darker grey, not quite black but close. He stood about five foot nine inches, this was okay, till his pupils began to tower over him, the main one being Tiger, but on that note Tiger would tower over most furs. Mr. Gray's personality was a kind one, in general. He was very understanding, and he would do his best for all the pupils, no matter the circumstances.

"Morning Sir" This is what he would hear about 6 times, from various pupils before the class started, then after the bell rang the entire group would say it in chorus, if caught off-guard this would give the group the desired effects, a very scared teacher, but five years Mr. Gray had caught onto their scheme, that and most of them were done by Sam, who was predictable at most times, that and Dave, Tiger, Calum and Mischa would all give Mr. Gray a heads up on any new schemes, in return for privileges, sometimes petty things like going to the toilet during lessons or even a chance to skip class, if they had Mr. Gray at the time.

The bell rang, "MORNING SIR!"

Mr. Gray smiled "Morning Class, and what a lovely morning it is, I know, Monday so it's never really that good eh?"

The class moaned a little at being reminded of the day Dave on the other hand smirked remembering the start of his day.

"So, let's do the register." Mr. Gray said before beginning the reel of names.

The Morning was easy English passed reasonably quickly without too many problems, And Food tech was a breeze and math was funny to say the least, this was mainly due to the different shades of red Dave and Tiger could make Sam go. It was now lunch Dave, Tiger and Calum were all back in their tutor room. Their tutor room was based as an art room, so had sinks, paints, loads of art bits of bobs here and there, and various paintings or drawings decorated the walls while a number of different shapes sizes and colored pots and clay structures took space up on shelf's and cupboards.

"I still can't believe how red you two went this morning" Calum teased

"Why what did you do to them?" Mischa asked curiously

"Well before register, " Calum started smirking, at this point Dave was already pink, Tiger wasn't really taking much notice, he was half way through his lunch "They were doing their usual thing, the who's who and I used their scent to mark them out and-"

"And he won; he noticed that I hadn't had a shower since my rave is all" Tiger said cutting into the conversation and stopped Calum in his tracks

"Yeah, but then-"

"Sam walked in and started mouthing off, as par usual" Tiger grinned

"what aren't you letting him tell me, that he also figured that you were into each other" Mischa said giggling andsticking her tongue out at the two, now pink tigers, neither tiger knew what to say or do at this point

"You could say that," Calum said winking sending the tigers redder than before.

Dave finished his lunch and got up, "I'm not standing for this no longer" He said walking towards the door. Tiger followed him also annoyed at Calum and Mischa, but, this also gave him a chance to talk to Dave alone.

The two tigers walked in silence for a little while, they turned through the side gate and walked to a wall they often leant against watching others and communing with their friends, there wasn't anything special about the wall, simple bricks and mortar, it may have been the positioning or maybe the fact that it was a little more secluded, but it had come in handy for various reasons, often when avoiding Sam.

"Dave, I've got something to tell you" Tiger began "While I was at the Rave, another DJ approached me, complimenting me on my decks" He said becoming a little agitated by it

"Yeah go on Tiger"

"Well we met up at the end, trading a few tips, the usual DJ talk, then He kissed me" Tiger said going a little redder"And, I liked it" Tiger took a step anxiously closer.

"Wait, 'he kissed' you, and you liked it, you're saying you're gay?"

"Well, I think I may be but I dunno" He said biting his lip

"That's okay, I'm totally fine with that"

"You are...thanks Dave"

"But why are you telling me"

"Well, what Mischa said, I think...." Tiger stopped lowering his ears, taking another step closer he looked Dave in the eye and kissed him hard on the lips.
