Hi everyone! Well, I’m back with my second sneeze story contribution. This time, featuring a true story! (sorta) This story features my girlfriend and me in our fursona forms, Saphira and Togo the wolves. Yes, we are a furry couple. We actually came up with our characters not long after we met, and we used to role play as them all the time. Most of the time we’d play as ferals who lived out in the wilderness as wild wolves, but once in a while we’d switch over to being anthros who were living normal human-like lives, which is how we are in this story; although, we usually don’t have clothes on, staying true to the canine part. She’s actually drawn quite a few pictures of us, and attached is one such drawing. She’s pushing me against the wall for a kiss, haha. Oh and, in case you’re wondering about the bizarre colors of our fur (blue and orange), there was one day when she just redrew us so that our fur was our favorite colors, and we both liked it like that. So, we kept it that way, and came up with a storyline about how some magic crystal that we found changed our fur.

She does NOT have a sneezing fetish, but she knows about mine…and she often teases me with it in real life. She’ll blatantly sneeze in front of me and grin (my fetish extends into the human world too), and other times when she has a fursuit head on, she’ll act like she’s gonna sneeze for me, and hold her nose and whatnot.
The funny thing is though, since I told her about my fetish early on in our relationship, for the first couple of years she was really self-conscious about sneezing in front of me. It was kind of a long distance relationship for a while, but whenever we saw each other, she just couldn’t do it! She’d feel one coming and remember that she was with me, and it would get scared off. Well, this story tells about the night that she was finally able to sneeze in front of me; a night not long after she moved in with me, when she was sick. I thought it would be cool to retell it in our fursona forms. Mind you, I exaggerated a bit for story telling purposes, but you get the idea. Enjoy!

Saphira’s Struggle
By AMTW03Togo stood absentmindedly at the stove, staring off in space as he stirred the chicken noodle soup that he was cooking up for himself and his girlfriend Saphira, who was right now sitting in their bedroom, already watching TV. It was the same routine that they followed on most nights. They would cook up some dinner, go hide in their room, and spend the evening watching TV shows or YouTube videos as they ate. It wasn’t the most ideal way to enjoy the end of the day, but it was about as good as it would get in this tiny two bedroom apartment that they shared with yet another couple. Togo and his best friend had moved into this apartment together a few years back, and for a while it was just the two of them. But eventually, they both had found serious girlfriends that they enjoyed spending their time with. Now, both girls lived in the apartment with them as well. It had been decided after quite a bit of time, that for a number of circumstantial reasons, it was best that both girlfriends move in until the two couples could afford places of their own. No doubt, it was crowded. But despite these trying conditions, Togo and Saphira never let it ruin their happiness. After growing closer together for years, the canine couple was so happy that they could finally be together all the time. And even though four individuals living together as roommates sometimes got on everyone’s nerves, the group always remained very good friends.
Togo tasted a spoonful of the soup, and decided that it was hot enough. Normally Saphira was here helping him in the kitchen when it was their turn to cook their dinner (each couple made their own meals), but tonight given the state she was in, Saphira was a bit too incapacitated to help. Togo moved the pot to a cool burner, and reached for the cabinet off to his right, grabbing a pair of bowls. His long, arced tail swished to his side as he did so.
Being a wolf in his late 20s, Togo stood about average height. His fur however was not so average. He was bright orange in color from nose to tail, the only exception being the black saddle shape on his back, and a handful of other spots where the same black fur showed, such as on his ears and tip of his tail. A shade of orange slightly lighter than the rest of his body also ran along his front. By no means was he muscular or athletic, but he had a fairly decent build, and he could have been easily classified as handsome. In his opinion though, he paled in comparison to the blue beauty that sat in the other room. Togo ladled the soup into two large bowls, grabbed some spoons and carried the soup out of the kitchen. He walked right past his two other roommates in the living room who were barley even paying attention to him, as they sat mesmerized by the big TV that dominated the room. Without looking away from the TV, Togo’s best friend did at least ask, “Is she okay?” referring to Saphira, as Togo walked past.
“She’ll be fine,” Togo answered, not even breaking stride. “Hopefully the soup will perk her up.” Togo opened his bedroom door to find his girlfriend on the bed, sitting up against the wall, watching the much smaller TV that they had in their room. Saphira was quite a bit younger than Togo, but she was just his same height, and had a beautiful feminine figure. Although Togo joked about how she was such a “typical girl,” always acting self-conscious and obsessing over her minor physical flaws, no matter how much Togo assured her how miniscule they were. Saphira’s predominantly dark midnight blue fur flowed down the sides of her body, and wound around her legs forming a very unique shape. It gave way to a much lighter icy blue color that covered her legs, front paws and the bottom of her muzzle. It also formed a jagged line up the center of her back, and spotted her ears and cheeks. Fittingly enough, her eyes were just the same light blue color. Togo couldn’t help but smile. She still looked beautiful to him, despite the condition she was in at the moment.
Saphira slightly smiled back, not bothering to lift her ears that lay flat against her head, as she let out a sigh. Clearly, she wasn’t feeling well. A slight red tint could be seen through the fur on her muzzle, and she appeared to be sweating a bit.
Togo gave her a sympathetic look as he pushed the door shut behind him with his foot. “How you feeling, sweety?”
Saphira squinted her eyes as she snorted a bit, struggling to breathe as she had been all night. “Ugh, okay I guess,” she said sadly. “My head hurts pretty bad and I’m soooo stuffy.”
Togo folded his ears down as he sat down on the bed next to her. “I’m sorry, babe,” he murmured, “that sounds like it really sucks. Here, eat up,” he said handing her the bowl of soup, “I’m sure this will help.”
“Thank you,” Saphira said, smiling a bit more. “Thanks for taking care of me.”
“You’d do the same for me. So what do you think it is?” Togo asked, “Bad cold or something?” even though he had an idea of what was really going on.
“I’m pretty sure I have a stupid sinus infection,” she groaned. “Figures, I have the worst luck with sinus stuff…
*sniff*“That’s rough,” Togo said, putting a paw on her forehead. “You do feel a little feverish. Well I’ll take you to the doctor tomorrow, sweetie. Like I mentioned before, I can take some personal time off at work.”
Saphira snorted again, her muzzle contorting a bit, but she did manage to smile back, her tail giving a slight wag.
“So, what are we watching tonight?” Togo asked as he backed up against the wall to sit next to his mate, noticing the laptop sitting at the edge of the bed, “Little YouTube action?”
“Oh, yeah,” Saphira said, lifting the remote to turn off the TV, and moving the laptop so that it sat on both of their laps, “there’s some funny vids I wanted to show you.”
Half an hour later, the empty soup bowls were sitting on the chair next to the bed, and the two canids were still laughing at the reactions of a favorite comedian of theirs, who was spastically playing the video game Happy Wheels on YouTube. The couple was very much enjoying the video, but all the while Togo kept glancing over at his girlfriend. He knew that she was in obvious agony, still struggling to breathe and dealing with the pain in her head and face. But one thing in particular kept catching his eye. He noticed all the while that she was occasionally sniffling, and her nose was twitching here and there. Off and on, she was even squinting, her face scrunching up slightly at the same time. Togo saw that she seemed to be doing it more and more as the evening went on. He wasn’t even paying attention to the computer screen anymore at this point. Saphira finally noticed he was watching her, and turned to look at him.
“What?”
“Are you ok?” Togo asked.
“Umm well…my sinuses are just really bothering me,” she said. “And uh, well…I kinda have to sneeze.” She smiled slightly and blushed as she said it.
Togo smirked a bit and his ears perked up slightly. “Yeah?” he teased.
“Well yeah…and I sorta have had to for a while now…but uh…well you’re here.”
Togo chuckled as he shook his head. “Still can’t sneeze in front of me, huh?”
“Ugh, I just can’t since I know about that fetish of yours,” she reiterated. “I swear, every time I feel one coming when I’m around you, right when I’m about to sneeze, I remember that I’m with you, and it just goes away!”
Togo grinned slightly. “Well mark my words; one of these days, I’ll finally get to see you sneeze,” he said.
“Heh, no doubt…although I think that the first time I manage to do it, you’ll be within earshot, just not in the room with me…maybe if I can’t see you, it’ll come out.”
Togo’s tail swished slightly. He knew that this must be awkward, but he really was enjoying this conversation. “You know, it bugs the crap out of me that after being together for two years, I still have no idea what your sneeze is like!”
Saphira smiled, but tensed up and look away a couple of times, obviously embarrassed.
“Like, throw me a bone, here!” he said. “How do you sneeze? Is it like big or small? Is it strong? Does it have a lot of force behind it?”
Saphira smiled sheepishly and blushed, unsure how to answer that. “Well…let’s just say that if you’re not in the room when it happens, and you manage to hear it, you’ll
know it was a sneeze…hehe.”
“Ha-ha, I’ll keep that in mind,” Togo replied, reaching up a paw to stroke the top of her head, pushing her ears back while doing so.
Saphira sighed happily and closed her eyes. But, she snorted a bit and squinted for a second before looking at him again. “Man, you REALLY suck right now! I keep feeling like I have to sneeze, but I just can’t!”
Indeed, Saphira’s swollen sinuses were really bothering her. Normally when one of her sneezes didn’t come out in front of Togo, it was just a minor annoyance. But right now, her condition kept making her nose feel tickly over and over again, and there was no relief from it. This was torture!
Togo was giggling now, “Well…for what it’s worth, I’m enjoying watching your expressions right now,” he said with a wink.
Saphira just groaned a bit and rolled her eyes. “You’re so weird,” she commented.
“That’s why you love me,” Togo joked, drawing yet another groan out of his partner.
They continued to pull up various videos on the laptop, occasionally throwing in their two cents about what they were watching, although Saphira was becoming noticeably quieter, for a good reason. The teasing tickle which had been lingering in her nose for quite a while seemed to be escalating slightly. Her breath started to get noticeably quicker as she could feel it creeping up the length of her long nasal passages, towards the back of her muzzle. Her eyes started to close involuntarily, and her nose scrunched up slightly.
“Heh…”
Her breath hitched slightly, almost inaudibly, to her excitement and delight. Was this finally it? Was she going to be able to finally let it out, while at the same time satisfying her boyfriend’s curiosity? Sadly enough, it died down just as quickly as it came about. She exhaled reluctantly, the tickle backing down slightly, but still persisting. Togo tried to act like he wasn’t noticing what was happening out of the corner of his eye.
It was hard not to though, as Saphira’s frustrations continued. Over the next several minutes, it was obvious that the irritation in her snout was really getting to her. She kept sniffling and twitching her nose, and making those “almost” sneezy expressions. A couple of times, her lips even curled slightly, exposing her sharp, white canines. Togo knew that if he wasn’t sitting there, the sneeze probably would have come out long ago; such a disappointment.
“UUGGHHH!!” Saphira groaned finally, “this sucks! My head and face really hurt, and I have to sneeze, so bad!” She started fanning the air in front of her face.
Togo laid his ears back and whined slightly. “I’m sorry,” he said. He was actually starting to feel bad now, not being able to help but feel somewhat responsible for his girlfriend’s misery. “Here, where does it hurt?” he asked. He reached up and started massaging the length of Saphira’s muzzle. “Does that help?”
Saphira sighed again, but smiled a bit, pushing her snout up against her boyfriend’s tranquilizing paw. It seemed to be easing her sinus pain slightly if nothing else. “A little, thanks,” she replied.
Togo smiled sweetly and let his paw fall as he turned back to the laptop screen, pretending to watch the video that they had pulled up. He glanced over at Saphira again. It appeared that the tickle was still there, judging by the look on her face. She seemed focused on it now, determined to sneeze and stop this endless torture. Togo wasn’t even consciously aware of the fact that he was now staring at her intently. Her whole muzzle was scrunched up now. Her mouth was hanging open and her snout pointed slightly upward. Nothing seemed to happen, though. She stayed locked in this pre-sneeze pose for what seemed like forever, until finally she started to exhale in frustration. Her eyes opened to find her boyfriend looking right at her. He smiled ruefully, realizing that he’d been caught.
“God, I HATE you!” she yelled jokingly, a slight edge to her voice.
“Heh, yeah I know,” Togo chortled. “Here, why don’t I take care of the dishes real quick?” He got up and picked the bowls up off of the chair. He really did intend it as a kind gesture, but he figured he also owed it to his partner to leave her alone for a bit, as his presence was causing her so much discomfort.
“Thanks,” Saphira replied, watching him walk out the door toward the kitchen.
Togo knew that even if the sneeze did finally come out while he was in the other room, he might not be able to hear it over the TV in the living room. But, at this point he didn’t care either way. He just hoped that his girlfriend might finally be able to rid herself of the torture.
Back in the bedroom, Saphira comprehended quickly that this was indeed a great opportunity since her boyfriend had left the room. But to her dismay, it appeared that the tickle was finally receding. “Ugh…no!” She wiggled her nose, and breathed deep, flaring her nostrils, thinking nothing but,
Come on sneeze, come out! But she would not get her wish as she felt the irritation almost completely diminish. She sighed, knowing that she would not get many other opportunities to be alone tonight.

Togo had finished getting ready for bed, and was now standing over the portable air conditioner that stood next to their mattress. He was messing with the controls, trying to get it how he wanted it. He probably should have waited to turn the lights out, until he got it set up right. The blue LED lit screen on the machine was now the only light illuminating the room.
Saphira laid watching him, already under the covers, half asleep, waiting for Togo to lay down with her. Togo finally gave up on the air conditioner and went to grab his water bottle off of the desk, so that he could steal one last swig before he came to bed. He looked back at Saphira in between sips. “How do you feel, babe?”
“Not so good,” she said, rubbing her forehead. Saphira’s sinus pain had taken a turn for the worst. “I really hope that the doctor can help me tomorrow.”
“Oh, I’m sure he will,” Togo reassured her. “He’ll probably give you an antibiotic or something that can help.” He took one last sip and went to set the bottle back down.
“Yeah,” Saphira started to say, “I just hope tha-hah…”
*sniff* That very moment started a completely unexpected turn of events that neither of them saw coming. The tickle suddenly returned in full force, causing Saphira’s nose to sniffle and twitch like crazy. Instinctively, she stopped talking; waiting in case she might sneeze. It was this instinctive reaction that was completely different from earlier that finally had the potential to achieve the desired result. Saphira was too tired to fully comprehend what was happening…to even think about the fact that Togo was
there in the room
with her, to see and hear what could be about to take place. Unimpeded psychologically or physically, the tickle quickly and furiously shot through her nostrils, completely engulfing her long muzzle.
Her nose reacted naturally and involuntarily by scrunching harshly, and turning upright, causing her chin to lift up off the bed.
“Heh…”
She felt her chest push up against the mattress as it puffed out. Her nostrils stretched as far as they could, her eyes squinted tight, and…
“Heehhh…HEEEEEEETSHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!”
Togo jumped, and nearly fumbled his water bottle as he whirled to look at his partner wide eyed. Did…did that just
happen?? He had only seen it out of the corner of his eye, and the darkness didn’t help, but there was no doubt. Saphira had actually
sneezed right in front of him! She eventually looked up at him with the same overjoyed expression, as she also realized.
“Oh…my gosh!” she exclaimed, as she sniffed and rubbed her nose.
“You finally
did it!” Togo burst out!
It was hard to tell which of the two of them felt happier at this very moment. Even Saphira’s painful agony seemed to diminish in the joy that filled the room. “I did!” she exclaimed, “How about that? All I needed was to be really tired for it to finally come out.”
Togo smiled widely, “And I didn’t even have to be in the other room, either!” he laughed.
Saphira smiled happily and sat up in the bed. She grinned at her partner. “So,” she cooed, “did you like what you saw?”
“Well uh…” Togo began as he slowly stepped closer. “Yeah,” he said as he grinned back. “Umm…that was
hot.”Saphira giggled and shook her head, before looking up at him with a raised eyebrow. “Are you
wagging mister?”
“Huh? Oh…” Togo looked behind himself to find his tail going crazy.
Crap…busted! “Yeah…guilty,” he laughed, shamelessly, as he sat down beside his partner.
Saphira just laughed some more as they each put an arm around the other’s neck.
“I love you,” Togo said as they rubbed noses together.
“I love you too,” Saphira replied.
“You were right, by the way,” Togo laughed, “that definitely
was a sneeze!”
