To all my watchers, sorry I disappeared for a month. I wasn't getting any story ideas, then something happened with my personal life that prevented me from submitting the stories I eventually came up with. I won't go into details, but there is something else. This story isn't like my others at all. Sorry if this isn't what you're watching me for.

About the story, I'm pretty sure I should mention all 2 of the named characters in this story are non-binary. That means they aren't either male or female. I will use the singular "they" pronoun when talking about either of them. Don't like that? Sorry, my story.





Devin is a rabbit. They’re a short, bright yellow bunny that’s 13 years old. They woke up one morning, and it was a morning like any other. They ate breakfast, hugged their parents goodbye before leaving on the bus. It was fairly normal. Then they arrived at class.

“Students, you have a new class mate today. I would like you to welcome Cam.” At those words, a short, pink cat walked into the room. They were even shorter than Devin! “Cam, please introduce yourself,” the teacher gently requested.

“Um, hi, I’m Cam.” There was something about Cam that intrigued Devin. Maybe it was their cute pink fur, maybe the way they talked... or maybe Devin was just happy to finally meet someone shorter than themself. Whatever the reason, Devin felt like they really wanted to get to know Cam. Is this what a crush is?

At recess that day, Devin found Cam and started up a conversation, eager to befriend them. “Hi Cam.”

“Oh, hi, uhh...”

“Devin!” Devin said, holding out their hand to Cam, but they just looked at their hand, not reaching out to shake it. It seemed Cam was pretty shy. Devin noticed and took their hand back. “So, you seemed kinda nervous back there when you were introducing yourself.”

“Yeah. I don’t like big groups.”

“Well, how about just 1 person?” Devin asked, smiling and hopeful.

Cam smiled back. “Yeah, just 1 is good.”

The 2 talked for a while, discussing interests, hobbies, they talked about food for a while, and they both enjoyed the conversation. Before long, though, recess ended, but Devin was liking Cam even more, and Cam was also starting to like Devin.

The 2 would always be talking at school, always hanging out with each other. They were good friends at this point, so Devin decided to pop the question. “Wanna come over and hang out at my house?”

Cam agreed, and after a quick talk both of their parents after school, Cam was going home with Devin. They thought back to when Devin had first approached them. They were a bit scared, as they didn’t like talking to strangers, but at the same time, there was something interesting about Devin. Maybe it was their kind smile, maybe their gentle speech... or maybe it was just that Devin was short enough that it didn’t feel like they were talking to the Leaning Tower of Pisa for once!

While they were talking, when Devin held out their hand to shake, Cam feared that they would get offended because they wouldn’t shake it. Fortunately, Devin seems to be very accepting of Cam’s shyness. And not once did they make a joke about how short they are! Cam hopes that this will be a friendship that will last.

While they were there, they played some video games, had some cookies, talked some more, it was nice. Eventually, they heard Devin’s parents calling them up, and it was time for Cam to leave.

Before they left the room, though, Devin stopped them. “W-wait a sec. I just wanna say Cam, I really enjoyed our play-date. Did you enjoy it too?”

“Yeah,” Cam responded, smiling. “It was a lot of fun.” Then Devin surprised Cam. They suddenly wrapped them in a hug. Cam was a bit stunned; this was very unexpected. At first, nothing happened, and Devin feared they had overstepped Cam’s boundaries. They were about to pull back and apologize, when Cam hugged them back. They both thought it felt kinda weird at first, but as it went on, it felt good. Being squeezed against your best friend, holding them close and being in their arms... is it wrong to thing about friends like this?

Eventually, after realizing they had been hugging each other for maybe a bit too long, Devin pulled away. “Heh, uh, sorry about that. It just kinda happened,” they said, looking embarrassed.

“Well, I don’t think you need to apologize.” Cam replied, smiling at them.

“Thanks.” Devin thought they might be mad. You shouldn’t just hug someone without asking. Devin knows that. But Cam likes Devin just as much as Devin does Cam. They both knew that this probably wouldn’t be their last hug.
Devin’s parents called them again, getting a bit concerned about how long they taking. The 2 quickly ran upstairs.





Sorry if it isn't fluffy enough yet. This is only the set-up for more fluff, so don't worry.
