The Male Debutantes' Pageant

by Annabel Naismith

 

Chapter twenty five

Danni recovered by the time it was two o'clock and time to go to Sally's. She had finished all the ironing and Linda had been very happy with the result. As always, Danni had managed to accomplish the task more quickly than her mother would have.

Danni had packed a small shoulder bag with the clothes and things she would need for the weekend.

As Jess had been released from police custody, Danni asked Linda to walk with her through the village. Danni did not think the risk was great; even a psychopath like Jess would not be so stupid as to attack someone in broad daylight she reasoned, but Danni and Linda thought it would not be worth the risk.

Danni was wearing the dress she had been wearing earlier when Kirsty had visited and a pair of white sandals with a three inch heel. She walked next to her short mother and enjoyed the rare experience of being significantly taller than an adult. The wide dress meant that Danni had to hold her elbows close to her waist and her wrists facing forwards and outwards when she walked. Her high-heels meant that she took shorter steps than usual and swayed her hips. All in all, she had a very feminine walk.

As they turned the corner, they saw Gemma and Lucy across the road.

"Hey, Gemma, Lucy," called Danni, her boy's voice belying the clothes she was wearing.

Gemma and Lucy crossed the road, while Linda and Danni waited for them.

"Hi, this is my mum. This is Gemma and Lucy."

They exchanged greetings.

"I'll be alright now mum; Jess won't attack me while Gemma and Lucy are with me."

"Too right she won't," confirmed Gemma in a menacing tone.

"OK then, Danni love. Have a nice time and we'll see you Sunday. Give me a ring if you're coming home for lunch."

"Will do mum. Bye."

Gemma took Danni's bag from her and calmly slipped the strap over one of her broad shoulders. They linked arms and the three teenagers walked on towards Sally's house, with Danni in her pretty dress flanked by the two big girls in jeans.

Danni was strongly aware of the swishing sound of her petticoats and the click of her heels as she walked along. Danni felt safe, knowing that the two girls would protect her from Jess, or any of the village boys who might became rowdy when they saw such a pretty dress. At the same time, she felt vulnerable, knowing that the two big powerful girls could overpower her at any time.

"Danni, you look really sexy," said Lucy. "That dress is so pretty on you. I wish I could look so good in a dress."

"Thanks, Lucy. My mum bought it for me yesterday. I like it, but Kirsty thought it was too girly."

"I must admit, I wouldn't wear something like that," said Lucy. "But it really suits you, because you're so petite."

"Are you wearing a petticoat under it?" asked Gemma.

"Yeah."

"I've never worn a petticoat. I wouldn't feel comfortable in one," said Gemma.

"I don't think you're supposed to feel comfortable. I think they just make your dress hang nicely. I don't feel particularly comfortable, but I do feel really sexy."

"Sexy like a bloke or sexy like a girl?" asked Lucy.

Danni blushed. "Like a girl," she said quietly.

"Would you like a bloke to make love to you?" asked Lucy.

"No, not a bloke."

"Well who do you want to make love to you? A girl?" asked Lucy.

Danni blushed again.

Gemma grinned. "You want a girl wearing a strap-on, don't you Danni?"

Danni felt her mouth go dry. "Yeah," she whispered.

Lucy realised that she was getting seriously turned on listening to Danni's description of her feelings.

"I wish I had a strap-on. I'd love to make love you," said Lucy.

"For Christ's sake, Lucy," said Gemma. "Danni's a girl and you're a bloke. You can't chat a girl up like that. How would you feel if a bloke said to you 'I'd love to make love to you.'?"

"Sorry Danni, I didn't mean it to sound like that."

"It's OK Lucy. I wish Kirsty thought like you Lucy," said Danni.

"Why do you say that?" asked Gemma.

"Kirsty came to my house this morning and I was wearing this dress. She gave me a blow job and at the same time, she…"

"Go on, what else did she do?"

Danni went white. Her voice was not more than a whisper. "She put her fingers up my bum."

"God, how awful," said Gemma.

"I wanted her to. When I came, she asked me if enjoyed it. I said yes and that I really wanted her to use a strap-on."

Gemma glanced across at Lucy. Lucy was looking intently at Danni.

"What did she say to that?"

"She said I was a total girl and she wanted a man, not a boy who really wants to be a girl. She's not sure if she wants to be my girlfriend anymore. She made me a girl and now she doesn't want me because I'm a girl. I don't know what she wants."

Danni sniffed and a tear ran down here cheek. Lucy gave her a comforting hug.

"It's OK Danni. I think you're gorgeous and I'm sure it'll be OK. You'll be back to being Dan soon and it'll all be forgotten."

Even in three inch heels, Danni was still three inches shorter than Lucy. Lucy was heavily built and had large breasts, which were very close to Danni's face.

"Yeah, cheer up Danni," said Gemma. "We're going to have a wicked party. If Sally gets her computer organised, we might even be able to buy a strap-on on the internet."

"What the hell are you talking about Gem?"

"Yesterday Sally told us about all these websites she's been to on her computer where you can buy sex-toys. You know, dildos and vibrators and things. We're going to do a bit of shopping."

Danni was suddenly aware that she could have inadvertently put herself at risk of being serially raped by these two massive girls, each wearing an enormous, hideous, vibrating strap-on dildo. Her penis started to become erect at the thought. Fortunately, the gentle pressure of the petticoats was enough to prevent any bulges becoming visible.

"I wonder what else there is," said Lucy. "I don't know much about all this stuff. I know they do uniforms and stuff like that. I suppose they do all kinds of bondage gear."

"Yeah, they're bound to," agreed Gemma. "Have you ever seen any of this stuff, Danni?"

"No, but I'm really interested. I don't want someone to attack me with a huge thing, I'm only little myself. I just want to, you know, experiment with something small."

"Size matters, doesn't it Luce?"

"So they say. I wouldn't ever want to hurt you Danni, but you're really turning me on with what you're saying."

"How do you mean?"

"Well you know, you say that you feel like a girl in your pretty dress and you want to be a girl wearing a strap-on to make love to you. You're describing my favourite fantasy."

"Go on Luce. You never told me this one." Gemma grinned and looked across at her friend.

"Well, I know I've always said I liked firemen, because all girls do. And if I'm being a submissive girl, then that's true. But I'd really like to be the dominant one and take control and really dominate a pretty boy."

"And I'm a pretty boy?"

"You're the prettiest boy I've ever seen. So if Kirsty doesn't want to go out with you anymore, I'd love to go out with you, Danni. I know I'm talking a bit, you know, like I'd be rough and hurt you, but I never would, honest. I just like the idea of being dominant in love-making."

Again Danni's mouth went dry and her penis started to become erect again.

"Lucy," whispered Danni urgently. "Please stop talking like that. It's giving me a, you know what."

The two girls looked down at the front of Danni's dress. However, under the petticoat there was no discernable evidence of arousal as Danni walked along.

"It doesn't show, Danni," said Gemma reassuringly, if unflatteringly.

"I still love Kirsty and I really want to keep going out with her. But I'm really flattered by what you say Lucy. I'm just so totally confused. I don't know where I'm going or what's going to happen between me and Kirsty."

"I understand Danni," said Lucy. "And I'm sorry if I've said anything I shouldn't have. But I do think you're so sexy."

They reached Sally's house and walked up the drive.

"Wow, this is big. Is this a mansion or what?" said Lucy.

"Yeah, and it's really cool inside as well. Sally's got a massive bedroom with her own walk-in closet for her clothes."

They rang the doorbell and waited for a reply. Gemma put Danni's bag down.

Danni continued, "and Sally's got a big telly and her own computer in her bedroom… I don't think anyone's in. Come round the back. We can wait in the garden."

Danni led the way round the side of the house into the large garden and they sat on the seats on the deck, which over looked a large lawn and flower beds. The rich crimson flowers of a large rhododendron dominated one corner of the garden.

"I wish I'd brought a bikini," said Gemma. "I could have done a bit of sunbathing."

They sat back and let the strong afternoon sun warm their arms and faces.

After a few minutes, they heard a car approach as Janet drove into the drive.

They went round to the front of the house and saw Amy helping Mandy out of the car, while Sally carried a sleeping bag towards the front door, which Janet was unlocking.

"Hi Danni. Hi Gemma. Hi Lucy, I'm so glad you could make it," greeted Sally cheerfully. "Can you give us a hand with all the sleeping bags and stuff, please?"

"Hi Danni, Your dress is gorgeous," said Amy as she held Mandy's arm and walked slowly towards the house.

Gemma and Lucy dropped their bags on the front porch and nonchalantly carried all the rest of the sleeping bags plus Amy's and Mandy's overnight bags. Danni was left looking on, feeling completely helpless, as the two massive girls refused to let her carry anything. Danni shut the car doors and meekly followed the girls into the house.

Sally was upstairs, organising where the bags and bedding was to go in the spare bedroom until it was needed later in the evening.

Sally introduced Lucy and Gemma to Janet, as they all assembled in the large living room.

Amy was very interested in Danni's dress.

"I do love that dress, Danni. It really suits you. I think it's pretty enough to wear on the actual pageant. One look you could try experimenting with is to pin up the hem of the dress and show some of your petticoat."

"How did you know she was wearing a petticoat?" asked Lucy, fascinated."

"Well she must be. The dress wouldn't hang like that if she wasn't."

"They might have built it into the dress."

"They never do. Except maybe for wedding dresses. I love clothes."

"You're nice and slim, like Danni. I look like the back of a bus if I wear a dress."

"It's much easier getting pretty clothes if you're small, I agree. But there are nice things for big girls as well. You'll have to come shopping with us one day. I'd love to help you find some nice clothes."

"I get bored when I go shopping."

"It's really fun when we do it," said Danni. "We try on all different clothes together."

"You go shopping with the girls?" Lucy could not believe it.

"Yeah."

"Even in the changing rooms?"

"Of course she does," said Amy simply. "How else can she buy her clothes?"

"I think Kirsty's right. You are a total girl. But I don't mean that in a nasty way," Lucy added hastily. "It's just, you know, you're more natural as a girl than I am."

"If you want to be more girly, just hang around with us," said Danni. "I was just an ordinary bloke a couple of weeks ago and now I'm so much like a girl that my girlfriend doesn't want to see me anymore."

"Ohmigod. Danni, what happened?" Amy looked into Danni's eyes with her clear blue eyes.

Danni related the events of the morning, omitting some of the detail, but conveying the message that Kirsty thought that Danni was so much a girl that they might not be compatible.

"But it'll be alright when you go back to being Dan, won't it?" said Amy reassuringly.

"I don't know. I've never been so turned on as I was this morning. It was amazing. And now I really want to do more stuff like that. I know Kirsty would, because she's such nice person and we both love making each other happy. But I'm worried that she won't think I'm enough of a man for her to feel like a girl."

"Danni, that's awful. I'm sure Kirsty isn't really thinking like that. I know I don't think like that, and Mandy's more of a girl than you are."

"I wouldn't care either," said Lucy. "I think you're gorgeous and I like a man who's in touch with his girly side."

"I know. But you two aren't Kirsty and I'm so worried she'll end it on Sunday."

Danni began to cry again. Amy moved to her side and kissed her cheek delicately. Lucy moved to Danni's other side and kissed her other cheek firmly. Both girls put their arms round Danni.

From the other end of the room, Janet came over looking concerned.

"What's the matter with Danni?"

"She's OK," said Amy. "She had a bit of a situation with Kirsty this morning. Now Kirsty has gone away until Sunday and Danni doesn't know if she'll stop seeing her on Sunday."

"Oh poor Danni. I think Kirsty knows what a nice sensitive boy you are and I'm sure it will be alright. If you want to call her at any time, just ask. And try and cheer up, but I know it's difficult when you've got something so important weighing on your mind. If you need to come and talk to me at any time, I'll be happy to listen."

"Thanks Janet," sniffed Danni.

The doorbell rang and soon afterwards Alison and Abigail arrived in the living room.

After a few minutes everyone went upstairs to Sally's room.

Lucy and Gemma were impressed with the size of the room and all the gadgets in it.

"Wow," said Gemma, "you've got your own telly and video. And a computer. And a stereo. This is amazing. You could set up an office in here."

"Yeah, I guess you could," said Sally, slightly embarrassed by the reaction.

Amy was last to arrive upstairs as she had been helping Mandy carefully up the stairs. "Listen everyone," she said loudly, then continued more quietly when she had everyone's attention. "Danni and Kirsty had a conversation and Danni's in a right state, because she doesn't know if Kirsty is going to want to still go out with her. We need to help Danni. What can we do?"

"We need to know what happened." said Abigail practically.

"You know yesterday, when we were here, we were talking about girls wearing strap-on willies?" began Danni uncertainly. "This morning I was wearing this dress when Kirsty came round. Well to cut a long story short, I told Kirsty I really wanted her to, you know, to, well, erm..."

"To make love to you wearing a big strap-on," finished Lucy helpfully.

Danny blushed and nodded.

The others including Amy, who had not previously been told this detail, looked aghast.

"Oh my God! What did Kirsty say?" asked Abigail.

"She said she thought I was a total girl and she wasn't sure if I could ever be enough of a man to make her feel like a girl. She's going to think about it and tell me on Sunday if we're still going out."

"There's nothing for it Danni, you'll have to leave school and train to be a fireman," said Sally cheerfully.

"Sally, that's not what Danni needs to hear now," said Alison reproachfully.

"Sorry, I was only trying to cheer her up."

"I know Sally. Let Danni say what she's feeling now, though."

"I don't know what I'm feeling. I was so turned on this morning. I really found out today what it feels like to be a girl. To need someone to give you pleasure. To need to feel their strength and power filling your body and the sensations it gives you. It was awesome. And then later, when I was wearing this dress and heels and walking over here with Gemma and Lucy, I felt so pretty and small and vulnerable but so secure with two such big strong people. Part of me knew that at any moment they could attack me and there would be nothing I could do about it. I knew they wouldn't of course. Now I just wish I could turn the clock back and I'd never become Danniella."

"Danni, I'm so sorry you think like that," said Amy. "I'm going to call Kirsty and let her know how upset you are. I can't bear you being like this all weekend."

Amy took her mobile phone and went out of the room and onto the landing, dialling Kirsty's number as she went."

"I don't know what's going to happen," said Danni. "I don't know if I want to be a boy or a girl or a boy sometimes and a girl sometimes. It's so confusing."

Alison put her arm round Danni. "Whatever happens, we're all here for you."

"I won't even have a team for the pageant. I was with Kirsty and Jess, remember?"

"Looking the way you do, Danni, you don't need help to look pretty. You just need a couple of minders. We can do that, can't we Luce?"

"Definitely Gem."

The two big girls simultaneously crossed their arms, giving the impression of two heavy night-club doormen. Danni smiled weakly at them.

Amy came back. "I couldn't get her. Her phone's switched off, or the battery's died or something. I've sent her a text telling her to call and that Danni's upset."

"Would you like to choose some music or watch the telly Danni?" asked Mandy. "Just do something to take your mind off what Kirsty's going to decide."

"Yeah, that's a good idea, Mandy." Danni brightened up as she realised that her worries were bringing everyone down.

Danni chose a CD and soon all the teenagers were bopping around in Sally's bedroom.

After they had listened to music for an hour or two, a thought occurred to Gemma. She went to talk to Sally.

"Sally, you remember yesterday at Mandy's, you said I could try on one of your corsets?"

"Yeah. Do you want to try one on now?"

"Can I? I've never worn anything like that before."

"Of course. What about Lucy? I've got another one she could try."

Gemma spoke to Lucy. "Hey Luce, would you like to try on one of Sally's corsets?"

"What the hell would I want to do that for?"

"Sally's lost loads of weight in the last couple of weeks and she thinks wearing corsets has really helped her."

"Oh OK then, I keep trying to lose weight and nothing seems to work."

Sally, Gemma and Lucy all went into Sally's clothes closet.

"I can't believe anyone has a bedroom like this," said Gemma. "You're so lucky Sally."

"You'll need to take your clothes off, all except panties."

"What even our bras?" asked Lucy.

"You're being a bit forward," said Gemma.

"I'm sorry Gemma. I didn't mean to be. It's just all the other girls keep stripping off in front me, Mandy and Danni. I just assumed all girls always stripped off in front of each other. You can keep your bras and jeans on while I lace you up gently. Then I'll leave and you can take off your bras and pull the laces really tight on each other."

"No, it's OK Sally," said Gemma as she slipped her T over her head and unhooked her bra. She undid her jeans and let them fall to the floor. Lucy stripped to her panties as well.

Sally took a black satin corset and started to lace it tightly around Gemma. Lucy looked on, fascinated.

"OK Gemma, I'm going to tighten the laces. You won't be able to breathe so deeply and you'll feel you tummy pulled around, but it won't hurt. You might need to lift your boobs with your hands so I don't pinch them. I never had that problem, but your boobs are much bigger than mine."

Lucy looked on as Sally pulled the laces the corset.

"How does that feel?" asked Sally.

"Fine."

"OK. Gemma, I'm going to pull really tightly. Try and relax and stand tall."

Sally pulled as tightly as she could on the laces. Then she lifted her skirt so she could put her knee in the small of Gemma's back. She tied off the laces in a double bow.

"How does that feel now?"

"Tight, I don't think I can breathe very deeply, but it feels OK."

"Would you like to lace Lucy into her corset?"

Gemma grinned. "Come on, Luce. Your turn for the torture."

"OK." Lucy turned her back to Gemma and Gemma slipped the pink satin corset round Lucy's torso. The excess flesh was squeezed up, over-flowing the cups designed for her breasts and giving Lucy the effect of a very full cleavage. As Gemma started to tighten the laces, Lucy became rather nervous.

"Are you sure it's supposed to be this tight Gem? It feels like my ribs are being crushed and I can hardly breathe."

"That's fine," reassured Sally. "I felt like that the first few days. You soon get used to it."

"How long have you been wearing corsets?"

"A couple of weeks now."

"And she's lost a hell of a lot of weight, Luce. Try it. You keep moaning about being fat. Do something to help yourself."

"OK then. Do it up tightly Gem."

"You asked for it."

The heavily built Gemma put her knee in the small of Lucy's back and strained on the laces. Sally found it quite erotic, watching one large buxom girl lace another one tightly in a corset. Gemma got the laces as tight as she could, although there was still a gap of an inch or two between the two sides of the corset.

"Bloody hell," gasped Lucy. "Are you sure this is safe?"

"You'll be fine, Lucy, honestly. Wait here a minute, I've had an idea, but I need to get Amy." Sally hurried out of the room, leaving the two big girls wearing just their corsets and panties.

"What's Sally going to do?" Lucy asked Gemma.

"I don't know. We'll find out in a minute."

"How long are we going to have to wear these corsets?"

"As long as it takes."

"As long as it takes to do what?"

"Give us a nice sexy body, like Sally's got. If she can get a sexy girl's body in a couple of weeks, we should be able to. After all, we really are girls."

Sally knocked on the door and came into the closet, accompanied by Amy.

"Sally thought it would be nice if we gave you both a makeover, as you've got some sexy underwear on. Would you like to pick out one of Sally's skirts?"

"Amy," said Sally, "if we're going to give Gemma and Lucy a makeover, we need to do their hair, nails and make-up as well."

"What do you have in mind Sally?" asked Gemma, a little apprehensively.

"Wash, condition and style your hair. Manicure and pedicure, and then make-up. Nothing drastic, just make you look pretty."

"You'll have a job," grunted Lucy.

"Oh, go on Lucy," said Amy. "Being tall and well-built doesn't stop you being a girl. You're only a little bit bigger than Ali and Abi and they're really pretty feminine girls."

"Come on Luce. What do we have to lose?"

"OK then."

"Yay," said Amy and gave Lucy a friendly hug. Lucy glared at her.

"Lighten up Luce. Amy's just being friendly."

"Sorry Amy. I'm just not used to this kind of attention."

Amy smiled and wrinkled her nose. "It's OK. Let's get the others. I'm sure they'll want to help."

Sally went back to her bedroom. "Listen everyone. We're going to give Gemma and Lucy a make-over and we need everyone to help. If you can make me a girl, we must be able to make a real girl into a girl. Danni and me will wash their hair and then Ali and Abi can style it because they're used to long hair. Then we'll all help with their nails. Then Ali and Abi can do their make-up and Amy and Mandy can sort out some clothes. Is everyone happy with that?"

"Yeah, that'll be fun," said Alison. Abigail concurred, although she was still a bit unsure of Gemma and Lucy as friends. Mandy was happy that Sally had assigned her a job which meant she would be with Amy.

Sally found a robe for both Gemma and Lucy and they went with Danni to the bathroom.

First Gemma dampened her hair in the sink. Danni massaged in a generous amount of shampoo, and Sally rinsed it over the bath using the shower head. They repeated the process for Lucy and then Danni applied shampoo for the second time to Gemma and then Lucy got her second shampoo. Finally, Danni applied conditioner to Gemma and Sally combed her hair to ensure the conditioner reached evenly to the tips. Danni applied conditioner to Lucy and combed it through.

"My arms are aching," complained Danni. "I wish I wasn't so little."

"I'll lift you up," said Lucy helpfully, and promptly did, squatting slightly and putting her arms around Danni's waist. Danni found herself, eight inches off the floor in a bear hug, held close to Lucy's ample bosom and looking directly into her face. She continued to continue to comb the conditioner into Lucy's shoulder length hair.

Sally meanwhile was rinsing the conditioner out of Gemma's hair.

"You can put me down now Lucy."

"OK Danni."

"You're so strong, that's amazing."

"You're very light, Danni. I don't think I could do that to Sally."

"How are you finding the corset? It really suits you. It gives you a lovely sexy figure."

"But I'm a whale. Do you really think I've got a sexy figure?"

Danni blushed and nodded.

"You're blushing Danni," said Lucy quietly, making Danni blush even more.

Sally turned the shower off.

Gemma looked round to see Danni still blushing and still gently combing the ends of Lucy's shoulder length thick dark hair. "You'd best stay here and keep an eye on these two, Sally. I'm not sure they're safe to be left alone together. I'm going to get my hair dried now."

Sally was puzzled by Gemma's comment. She could see that Danni and Lucy were getting along nicely but were they really being over-friendly?

"Shall we rinse your conditioner out now Lucy?"

"Go on then." Lucy bent her head over the bath and Sally held the shower head while Danni rinsed Lucy's hair. Lucy rested her hands on the side of the bath and soon all the conditioner was rinsed out.

"Thank you girls, that was really nice. Much nicer than doing it yourself in the shower."

Sally gave Lucy a towel and she wrapped her hair in it and went back to Sally's bedroom.

Alison and Abigail were attacking Gemma's face, plucking her eyebrows, prior to applying her make-up. Mandy was with Amy in the closet, selecting clothes for Gemma and Lucy to wear.

"Would you like us to do your hair and make-up, Lucy?" asked Danni.

"Hey, that's our job," called Abigail. "You can start doing her nails if you want."

Danni and Sally started Lucy's pedicure, taking one of Lucy's feet each. The task was not made easier by Lucy having extremely ticklish toes. Lucy giggled, squirmed and kicked out at her would-be pedicurists.

"What the hell is going on over there?" asked Abigail.

"We're not doing anything," said Sally.

Danni was being kicked mercilessly, but gamely tried to hold Lucy's feet and file her toenails. Sally had given up and was waiting to see the outcome of Lucy's treatment of Danni. At length, Lucy landed a particularly well-aimed kick, which caught Danni in the lower ribs. Danni went flying backwards across the floor, performing half a backward somersault, landing on her back with her legs in the air. Her dress and petticoat flew up, exposing her stockings, suspender belt and lacy panties.

Lucy hurried to rescue Danni.

"Sorry, Danni. I didn't mean to catch you like that. Are you OK?"

"Yeah I'm fine."

"You've got gorgeous undies on," commented Alison. "Don't ruin them playing around."

Lucy effortlessly picked Danni up and then she kneeled in front of her to shake out her petticoat and make sure her dress was hanging properly.

"Thanks Lucy."

"That's OK Danni. I'd have felt terrible if I'd torn your nice dress."

The telephone rang downstairs. They heard Janet answer it. A few seconds later, she called up to Sally. "Sally, can you get Amy. Kirsty is on the phone."

Danni was instantly concerned. Why did Kirsty want to speak to Amy and not her?

Amy emerged from the closet and hurried down the stairs. Danni went and stood on the landing, hoping to learn something of how Kirsty was feeling about her.

Danni did not hear much; clearly Kirsty was doing most of the talking.

"Oh no," said Amy.

Pause.

"Oh that's terrible."

Pause.

"Oh god, how awful."

Pause.

Danni could not bear it any longer. She started to walk slowly down the stairs. Amy heard her footsteps and beckoned to her to come down.

"Oh I'm so sorry Kirsty. That's terrible. Danni's here. I'll put her on. Bye Kirsty, see you on Sunday."

"What happened?" asked Danni anxiously.

"Talk to Kirsty," said Amy.

Danni anxiously put the telephone to her ear. "Hello Kirsty?"

"Hi Danni. God I wish you were here. It's terrible. My dad's got a new job down here in Exeter. We're going to have to move down here."

Danni sank into a chair.

"Hallo Danni? Are you still there?"

"Yes, I'm here. Are you going to have to move to Exeter?"

"Yes, I am going to have to move to bloody Exeter. I'm really upset. How bloody inconsiderate can he be? I'm going to have to leave all my friends behind and start making new friends in bloody Exeter. If he could just wait another year or two, I could get a job and support myself in Nutstead, but oh no, there won't be another opportunity like this one. Bollocks there won't! There are always opportunities. I'm bloody furious."

"Does this mean we aren't going out anymore?"

"God Danni, I'd forgotten about what I said this morning. Oh shit! Can this get any worse? How the hell can we go on seeing each other when we're two hundred miles apart? I love you Danni. I will always love you. You will always be special to me and I'll always remember our special times together. But we can't go on seeing each other. It just won't work."

"I love you too Kirsty. I will always remember you too. Can't we find a way to meet up sometimes and be friends at least?"

"Yes, but how often will that be? Until one of us drives, we won't be able to see each other, except in school holidays and even then where would we stay? I suppose I've got plenty of friends in Nutstead I could stay with, but I don't think my bloody parents will let me come and stay with you, because I might lose my virginity. If only they knew."

"So we're through?"

"Yes, Danni. We might as well face the fact. We're through. And I'm so sorry for what I said this morning. It was bitchy and unfair and I hate to think that you will remember me for saying that, and not for all the fun times we had together. Please say you forgive me."

"There's nothing to forgive, Kirsty. You only said what you felt. I was upset, but I was upset with myself for putting you in that position and making you doubt me. I still don't really know whether I want to be a boy or a girl when I'm making love. The one thing I do know is that I'm not gay. I don't find boys or men attractive at all."

"I never doubted that for a moment, Danni. You're in love with femininity. You've been exploring your feminine side and now you want the complete experience of being a girl. And if you had to be a girl, you would be a lesbian. You can't change that. I do hope you find someone who can make you happy, Danni. You're so special and kind and loving."

Danni heard some voices in the background. She heard Kirsty's voice shouting back. "I'm trying to talk to my friends. I'm upset. You spring a bombshell like this on me. You should expect me to be upset."

Kirsty spoke more clearly into the phone, "Danni I've got to go. Ring me on my mobile in few minutes. I'm going out for a walk."

The line went dead. Amy gently took the handset from Danni and put down on the receiver.

"It's over," said Danni, as tears started to run down her cheeks.

Amy knelt down next to Danni and hugged her.

"Danni, come in the living room and talk to Janet. She said you could talk to her."

Amy held Danni's hand and they went into the living room.

Amy explained what had happened and Janet sat next to Danni on the sofa.

Janet gently held Danni's hand as Danni tearfully sat next to her, still numb from the conversation with Kirsty.

"Would you like a drink or anything to eat, Danni?" asked Jane gently.

Danni just shook her head.

"I'll never see Kirsty again. What am I going to do? I love Kirsty. She's so much fun. OK, she can be bossy sometimes and she gets angry sometimes, but she's so nice. And especially now I'm Danni. What other girl wants to go out with a boy who wants to be a girl?"

"You're a lovely boy Danni," said Jane gently. "You will find someone. It may take time, but there is someone, somewhere just for you. Just keep being friends with the girls and one of them will fall for you, or introduce you to their friends."

"That's right," agreed Amy. "If I wasn't in love with Mandy, I'd want to go out with you. And I'll happily introduce you to all the girls I know, until you find a nice girlfriend."

"Thanks Amy. But you're not Kirsty and none of your friends will be like Kirsty. Can I call her now? I've got to call her mobile. Will that be all right?"

"Of course, Danni. Will you be comfortable in here?"

Danni nodded and Janet passed the phone. Danni dialled the number she knew by heart.

"Hello Danni?"

"Hi Kirsty."

"Oh Danni, thank god you called. My bloody parents are driving me mad. They can't understand that I'm upset. I'm losing all my friends, my home, everything and I've lost you as well. It's all so unfair. There's nothing I can say or do that will change anything. They're absolutely bloody determined to ruin my life and all my friendships and everything. And for what? A bloody job. Who gives a shit what they do? Everyone hates their job. He'll just go from one bloody boring job he hates to another bloody boring job he hates, but he won't listen to anything anyone says. God, it makes me cross."

"It's awful and it doesn't just affect you. All your friends will miss you too, especially me."

"I know Danni. I'm so sorry it has to end like this. I'm sorry it has to end at all. There is nothing we can do."

"When does his job start?"

"As soon as he can leave his old job and move down here. We'll be moving down here before we've even sold the house. Apparently the company dad's going to work for will arrange for us to get a house before we've sold our old house. So we might be moving in a week or two."

"I didn't realise it would be that soon."

"Neither did I. Two weeks and everything I was planning to do is just not going to happen. Why the bloody hell he couldn't have let me know a bit sooner, I don't know. I'm so cross."

"Kirsty, are you going to look for another boyfriend?"

"I'll have to, won't I?"

"Should I start looking for a new girlfriend?"

"Do you have someone in mind?"

"Not really. I want you. But if someone asks me out, would you mind?"

"You do have someone in mind, don't you? Who is she?"

"I'd rather not say, because she hasn't asked me out yet."

"You're sounding like a girl, Danni. You should ask her out. Who is she?"

"Lucy." Amy and Janet were listening intently, but Danni was only concentrating on her conversation with Kirsty.

"Lucy? You want to go out with Lucy?"

"I wouldn't if you were here, but she told me she liked boys who were, you know, a bit girly."

"Given how butch she is, I'm not surprised. Do you really want to go out with her?"

"No, not really. I want to go out with you. But if you're not going to be here, I'll have to find someone else. She seems quite nice, but she's not as funny as you are. She really seems to like me."

"Danni. It wouldn't be fair if I were to say that we're finished and then not let you look for another girlfriend. I hope you'll be happy because I will always have a special place in my heart for you. You took my virginity, remember, and that will always be a special moment for me."

"Thank you Kirsty and I will always love you. I hope you find someone soon too. A nice athletic fireman, maybe, who likes wearing a dress sometimes."

"I can't imagine a fireman wearing a dress. Danni you really are mad. The whole point of firemen is they're so rugged and they've got a really sexy uniform."

"But he wouldn't wear it when he's off duty, so he could wear a dress."

"You've totally lost it Danni. I'm really going to miss your silly ideas. You always manage to cheer me up, however bad I feel. You will let me call you up, so you can cheer me up, even when you're going out with Lucy or whoever?"

"Of course you can, but it could be embarrassing. Imagine if we were you know, having a bit of a snuggle."

"Well I suppose I could tell you what she'd like you to do to her, but why should I? I should tell you to do something she won't like, then she'll break up with you and you'll come back to me."

"Can I really come back to you?"

"I don't thing so Danni. I think we'll both have to move on. God, it breaks my heart. But thank you for cheering me up, Danni. I know we'll always be friends. I'll see you on Sunday anyway. But if you do want to go out with Lucy in the meantime, I won't stop you. I just want you to be happy. If you can't be happy with me, then just be happy."

"OK Kirsty. Thank you for that. And I hope you get a nice sexy boyfriend soon. Bye Kirsty. I love you mummy."

"Bye baby. I love you too."

Danny gave the phone back to Janet.

"Do you really think Lucy wants to go out with you?" asked Amy.

Danni shrugged. "She seems very friendly towards me today. She's weird. She likes me because I'm being girly and just a few days ago she was helping Jess hurt Mandy because she was being girly."

"That is odd, now you mention it," said Amy thoughtfully.

"It's probably because she was led by her friends," said Janet quietly. "I think she's self-conscious because she sees herself as being big and she finds it difficult to make friends. If you do want to go out with her Danni, and you think she is interested in you, ask her out. You've got nothing to lose."

"I won't look silly, being a little bloke going out with a massive girl will I?"

"I don't think so," said Janet.

"At the moment you look like a slim pretty girl, so it won't look odd at all if you go round with a bigger girl," added Amy.

"But I do want to be Dan at least some of the time."

"You'll be fine Danni," said Amy. "Silly people might tease you, but after those photographs of you in that little girl's dress got sent round to everyone, you've proved you're strong enough not to worry about being teased."

Danni considered this. "Yes," she said thoughtfully, "lots of girls are bigger than me, so I can't be too picky. And anyway, I find big girls sexy. Kirsty was sexy too and she's not that much shorter than Lucy."

"You stay here with Janet. I'm supposed to be picking something pretty for Lucy and Gemma to wear. We're giving them a make-over, Janet. They're both a bit self-conscious about being big and they both find clothes shopping frustrating because there isn't much in their sizes."

"I know that feeling," said Janet grimly.

Amy left Danni and Janet chatting in the living room and hurried upstairs to Sally's room.

Gemma and Lucy were having the finishing touches being done by Alison and Abigail. Mandy and Sally were sitting at Sally's computer.

"How's Danni?" asked Alison.

"She's OK. She and Kirsty won't be going out anymore. Kirsty's dad has a new job in Exeter and she'll be moving away soon, so they have agreed to not go out anymore. Danni's upset but not too bad in the circumstances."

"Where is she?" asked Abigail.

"Downstairs, talking to Janet."

"Why didn't she come upstairs with you?"

"I think she wanted to talk to Janet." Amy changed the subject. "Mandy, I thought we were supposed to be picking out clothes for Gemma and Lucy."

"Me and Sally did that."

"Show me."

Mandy stood up carefully and walked slowly to the closet. "I thought Lucy would look nice in the yellow dress. The yellow will contrast nicely with her dark hair and brown eyes. And Gemma can wear the strapless burgundy dress because she's got honey blonde hair."

"They'll look really pretty. Well done Mandy. I thought Gemma might look good in black, but black is rather boring. "

"We were really lucky, Sally takes the same size shoes as Gemma and Lucy is only half a size bigger, but her feet are actually thinner than Sally's, so she can wear the yellow sandals that go with the yellow dress."

Gemma's make-up was finished, but her hair was still held back with an Alice band as she came into the closet. "What have you chosen for me to wear then? Not yellow, surely."

"No, you're the burgundy."

Amy got the dress of the hanger and undid the zip before handing it to Gemma. Gemma stepped into the dress and pulled it up over her strong thighs and broad hips. She offered her back to Amy to do up the zip.

"It's a bit tight," said Gemma.

"It has to be. It's strapless," said Mandy. "I wish I could wear a strapless dress"

"You probably can now your boobs are stuck on," said Amy.

Gemma fussed with the skirt of her dress. "I've never worn anything like his before. It feels weird."

"You look fab, doesn't she Mandy."

"Yeah, definitely. We just need Ali and Abi to finish your hair and you'll look gorgeous."

"Shoes Gemma," exclaimed Mandy. "These are the ones Sally and Mandy chose."

The burgundy court shoes with a three inch heel meant that Gemma was now close to six feet tall.

"I never wear heels either. I'm too tall for heels."

"You don't need them, because you've got such nice long legs," agreed Mandy, "but they do make you much more feminine and sexy."

"Hmm," said Gemma doubtfully, "and people don't say I look sexy very often either."

"If you dress like this more often, I'm sure they will, won't they Mandy."

"Definitely."

Gemma walked self-consciously back to the bedroom and sat at the vanity for Alison and Abigail to apply the finishing touches to her hair.

Lucy entered the closet. "You expect me to wear a yellow dress?"

"Why not?" asked Mandy. "You'll look really nice in it."

"I'll look like a blimp."

"No you won't," said Amy. You're wearing a corset, so you've got nice sexy curves. You'll look like a big sexy girl. Trust me."

"I'm not turning myself into a joke for you lot."

"Tell you what," said Mandy. "Danni hasn't seen you yet. If she laughs, then we'll say sorry and we'll never do this to you again. But I'm sure she won't."

"OK then."

Amy passed the dress to Lucy and she put it on. Mandy helped with the zip, which she had some difficulty doing up. Lucy's bust was too big for the dress to be a perfect fit, but the result was very feminine and quite attractive and buxom. Amy knelt at Lucy's feet to do up the straps on the yellow sandals.

"You look really good, Lucy," said Mandy.

Lucy looked doubtful and walked back to the bedroom to have her hair finished.

Alison and Abigail had just finished Gemma's hair and she really did look attractive. They quickly set to work on Lucy, teasing hair up and back, away from her face and leaving bangs on either side, framing her face.

Lucy was astonished at her appearance. She had never worn her hair up. She seldom wore make-up and was used to appearing to have round cheeks. The effect of the make-up heightened her cheek bones and made her dark eyes more prominent. The scarlet lipstick made a bold contrast with her yellow dress and dark hair and eyes. She was really impressed.

"I've got to say you've done a fantastic job with the hair and make-up. I'm not sure about the dress, but I'll wait and see how Danni reacts before I take it off and put my jeans back on."

"Come on, girls," said Abigail. "Are you ready to meet your public?"

"Yeah I guess, Come on Lucy."

The two large girls walked carefully down the stairs in their unfamiliar heels. They waited in the hall for everyone else to go into the living room before they made their grand entrance.
