Alex to Allie

by Allie Elle

 

I stepped off the jet-way my small case clutched in my hand, in my free hand I clutched a small sheet of paper covered with my scrawl of hand writing. The hostess was trying to hurry the passengers off the flight and she smiled at me as I looked around.

"Welcome to the united states Sir I hope you enjoy your stay." She said with a plastic smile. I smiled back and headed out to the baggage hall and straight through to immigration desks. I held my passport now and was swallowing nervously as I approached the uniformed officer. The woman looked up as I approached at the front of the queue there and she flashed me a quick smile as she could see I was nervous.

"Passport please Sir?"

I placed the document on the desk with a nervous smile and the officer opened it. She stared at the page than at me as if measuring me against my image. She nodded and smiled a warm smile and stamped the visa page and motioned me out of the desk area to another office. I walked slowly and opened the door and a stern looking male officer was sat at a desk. For twenty minutes I was subject to a barrage of questions. They mainly concentrated on my passport and why I was in the states without a return date. By the time he had finished I felt as though I had been through a wringer and sweat was pooling at my back.

"Thank you Mister Elle enjoy your stay and sorry for the third degree but with security so tight you understand."

I resisted the urge to giggle like a young girl and turned it a masculine laugh. The officer smiled and showed me out of the office into the main hall of the terminal. I still clutched my small case and made my way out of the terminal and hailed a taxi. I headed for a hotel that I allowed the driver to pick and booked into a room. I breathed a sigh of relief and set the case onto the bed. I opened it and booted up my laptop and connected to the internet. As I opened my e-mails there was one from the woman who I had come looking for. As usual it was a warm letter and I smiled as i read through the document. When ever she wrote to me inside I felt my true self a little girl. There were only a few clothes inside the case and a set of girls underwear.

I quickly put the underwear on after showering and brushing out my long hair. I sat on the bed and replied to her and saw that time was marching on. I phoned rom service to ask them if there was a good restaurant in the area and was directed to an establishment about three blocks away. I put on my outer clothes and set out. The day had turned out to be overcast and I thought it did not meet my mood as I walked through the town that over cast day. I smiled to myself as the people around me seemed to take no notice of me as I walked. It was a busy place this city and I felt slightly over awed by what was around me every thing was so busy and built up.

I started to feel claustrophobic at being surrounded by thse buildings and I started looking for an open space. Every way I turned there were buildings they seemed to be closing in on me and I felt the need to start running from them. Slowly the buildings gave way to the signs of an open space. It seemed a little strange though this placewas lit by bright sunlight where the rest of the city was covered in grey cloud. My laptop in its case bumped against my leg bringing me away from this day dream and I saw the green expanse of a grassy field surrounded by trees. I smiled and wished I had some of my dresses with me as I wanted to run so they would flare around me.

I walked into the field and stood there looking around as I noticed the bright sunlight streaming down. It seemed to warm my body and give me more energy. I almost started to skipalong the green but stopped myself as I thought people would laugh to see a grown man skipping like a preschool girl. I sat on the grass and looked down at myself and shook my head as I took in my body and slowly two tears started to fall.

As the tears touched the ground I saw something laying there in the grass it sparkled invitingly. I picked it up and smiled when I saw it was a young girls bracelet with a pink stone set in it. I looked at it and wished it was magic and it seemed to glow as I looked at it. It seemed to grow and pulse the more I stared at it and it filled the center of my vision. One of the tears splashed onto it, it flared into a bright brilliance and the light sank over my body.

My body started to tingle as if thousands of tiny insects were crawling over me and I almost screamed.I looked as my hands started to shrink and gain puppy fat and mylegsa and I felt the hair on my head tickle the back of my neck. Everything was becoming larger and I was beginningto get scared. I found my self lifting my thumb upto my mouth and I looked at what was going on around me and I noticed a group walking towards me.

The group was all female and they were smiling as they walked towards me. I realised I was naked and I looked down. I noticed between my legs what had tormented me for years was gone to be replaced by a slit and I looked at my body.

"Me a Giwl!!!!!" I shouted just as the group reached me the first was a redhaired greeneyed girl of five who picked up my small body and hugged me tight and seemed to purr.

"KITTEM!!" my langauge was that of a toddler but i did not care.

"then came four women and they gathered roundme and maggie hugging us.

"Welcome home Allie" This was said as one of the womwen picked meupas she sat down and pulled a toddlers party dress out of a bag and dressed me.

"Mama" Was the last word I spoke as my new reality took over and I smiled as I was loved now and for always by the new family i had.
