Tales From Girly Camp

by Jeff Stephanie Sevem

 

Session One (9-13 year olds)

 

"Are you sure you want to go?' My Mom asked. "Yes Mom I am so sure." I said. "Okay you have fun. Maybe when you get back you could put all this foolish girl stuff behind you." My Mom said. "I hope not." I said with a huge smile on my face. I then hugged my Mom and boarded the plane.

My name is Jeff and I am twelve years old. I have one very big secret. As long as I can remember I always wanted to be a girl. My dream was about to come true. I was about to spend two wonderful weeks at Camp Make-up which is located in Arizona.

The plane couldn't land faster. There was person holding up a sign for all Camp Make-up campers. "Welcome." A lady said. "Thank you I just can't wait to get to camp." I said. "It won't be long now." The lady said.

After a thirty minute car ride we arrived at the camp. It was located in the middle of the Arizona dessert and sat on about two hundred acres. It had a huge lake.

My first stop was to the administration building. "Welcome honey. My name is Ms. Jones and I am the camp director here. What is your name." Ms. Jones asked. "My name is Jeff but I much prefer Stephanie." I said. "Stephanie that is a very beautiful name. Are you ready to have a great time." Ms. Jones said. "You bet I am." I said. "Good I love your excitement. Here is a map of the camp. Your cabin is circled in red. You have about an hour before today's activities begin." Ms. Jones said.

My cabin was located very close to the lake. I was in cabin number five. "Hello. My name is Karen and I will be your troop counselor. What's your name?' Karen asked. "My name is Stephanie.' I said. "Stephanie let me see here. Here you are. You have the bed to the right. Your roommate should be here in a couple of minutes." Karen said. "Thank you." I said. "You are so welcome. I am here whenever you need me." Karen said.

My cabin was huge. It had pink shaggy carpet, a chest of drawers, a closet, and two beds that had white sheets on them with red roses on it. I was looking through the chest of drawers and saw all the wonderful clothes they had on it. They even had my name on them. "Are you okay?' A girl asked. "I'm fine." I said as I wipe away a tear. "Good my name is Donna and I am your roommate." Donna said. "I'm Stephanie it is nice to meet you.' I said. Donna was a perfect picture of femininity. She had dark brown hair that went to her shoulders and stood about four feet six. She was wearing a floral print skirt and a white blouse that showed her bra from underneath. She was also wearing three inch sandals.

"You are so beautiful." I said. "Thank you. So are you." Donna said. "I don't think so." I said. I am about five feet three and still growing. I had light brown hair that went to my shoulders. It took a lot of pleading to my Mom to let my hair grow. Even through it was long it was a mess not as perfect as Donna. I was wearing a white T-shirt and a pair of blue Jean shorts. "Don't talk like that. Here let's get you out of those yucky boy's clothes." Donna said.

Donna than walked over the chest of drawers and handed me a pair of white panties and a white training bra even through I had nothing let to train. "Let's be sister's today." Donna said. "I would love that." I said. I quickly took off my ugly boy's clothes and put them under my bed. I told myself I won't wear them again until I have to go home and maybe not even then. After I slipped on the bra and panties Donna handed me a white camisole. I then put on my floral print skirt that went to about three inches above my knees. I put on my white blouse that had a Peter Pan collar and had ruffles up the front. I slipped on my three inch heels. "There. Feel better." Donna asked. "Feel awesome." I said. "Good." Donna said.

"Let's add some color." Donna said as she took some make-up out. "Wait just a minute." Karen said. "What I want to make my friend here beautiful." Donna said. "I love your sprit but we have to go. We have a lot of work to do today. Grab your suits we have to go to the lake." Karen said. "Oh all right." Donna said.

Lucky for us we were just a hop and a jump away from the lake.

Standing before us was a perfect vision of femininity. She was about five eleven and had beautiful blonde hair that had many curls in it and rested on her shoulders. She was wearing a pink one piece mallot suit that tied around her neck and was cut high on her hips. "Ladies I want to welcome you to the aquatics area. My name is Je." The lady said. After a couple of seconds of awkward silence. "No it's Stephanie and I am your Aquatics director. First I want you to change into the club house that is behind you. You will always need to have a buddy when you come to the aquatics area. Now go get changed and I will give you your swim test." Stephanie said.

"She is so beautiful." I said. "I wasn't really looking. Hey Stephanie do you like girls. If so that is okay but I like boys." Donna said. "I didn't mean beautiful in a sexual way I was just admiring her beauty and I wished I could look like her one day." I said. "I understand and don't worry after these two weeks you will be well on your way." Donna said. "I sure hope so." I said. I then changed into my one piece swim suit that had red roses on it. "Very cute." Donna said. "Thank you." I said. "Don't worry by the end of the week you will be in a bikini." Donna said.

"Okay ladies the swim test is really easy. All you have to do is go to the end of the dock and swim towards the floating dock turn around and swim back." Stephanie said. Sounds easy I thought. Not to brag but I am a pretty good swimmer. Our whole group past the test. "I will see you all tonight. Enjoy the rest of the day." Stephanie said.

Our next stop was to Ms. Betty's. She was the camp doctor and in charge of the beauty salon.

"Hello ladies." Ms. Betty said. "Hello." We all said. "The first thing I am going to do is give you all a physical. Don't worry it won't hurt I just want to make sure you are all healthy. Sweetie why don't you go first." Ms. Betty said. She was looking right at me. "Okay." I said. To be honest I was a little scared but Ms. Betty seemed liked a very nice person.

"What's your name sweetie." Ms. Betty asked. "Stephanie." I said with a nervous voice. "Don't be nervous my dear. It says here that you are not on hormones yet." Ms. Betty said. "No. My Mom won't yet me. She is hoping I grow out of this silly girl business." I said as tears flowed from my eyes. "I'm sorry sweetie." Ms. Betty said. She then gave me a big hug. After a couple of minuets of hugging. "You feel better." Ms. Betty asked. "Yes thank you." I said. "Don't worry about that is why I am here. Now let's check you out." Ms. Betty said. She then gave me a complete physical from head to toe.

"I'm going to give you a couple of shots. "You are going to give me female hormones." I said with a big smile on my face. "I'm sorry sweetie but I can't do that without your Mom's permission.' Ms. Betty said. I then started crying again. "Hey stop that. I am going to give you a couple shots that will slow down your testosterone. You are at that age that your secondary male characteristics are about to kick in and we don't want that do we." Ms. Betty asked. 'No we don't." I said. "I thought so. Don't worry about your Mom I will give her a call and we are going to have a little talk." Ms. Betty said. "Thank you so much." I said. I then gave her a hug. "Your so welcome sweetie. If you need to talk or you feel any side effects please don't hesitate to come see me." Ms. Betty said.

After all the girls had there physical we were lead to the camp beauty salon. We were then lead to the chairs. "Let's make you beautiful." Ms. Betty said. 'I can't wait." I said. "Good now sit still you are in good hands." Ms. Betty said. She then had me lean my head back and she began to wash it. After a couple of minuets she took out a brush and began brushing my hair. "You have very beautiful hair. Now don't get emotion on me but I need to cut your hair a little. Don't worry I won't take a lot off. I just need to even it out a little." Ms. Betty said. After five minuets of cutting she was done. She then resoaked my hair in a strong smelling solution. 'Let's see what you think of having curly hair." Ms. Betty said. "Please do it." I said. Ms. Betty then began to roll my hair with metal rods that made my head very heavy. After a half an hour she was done. She then lead me over to the dryers.

"Hello sweetie my name is Amy and I am here to do your nails." Amy said. She then took my hands and placed them in a bowl of soapy water. After a couple of minuets she took out a nail filer and began to shape my nails into oval shapes. She then painted them a frosty pink color. "What do you think of the color?" Amy asked. "I just love it.' I said. "Good." Amy said. She then repeated the process with my feet and twenty minuets later I had ten pink toe nails. Just then my timer went off.

I was then return to my chair for Ms. Betty to remove my metal rods and replace them with plastic rollers. I was then back under the dryers for a half an hour.

The suspense was killing me as Ms. Betty began removing my rollers and brushing my hair. "Sit still sweetie I am almost done." Ms. Betty said. "I'm sorry I am just so excited to see the finish product." I said. "I know. You girls are all the same." Ms. Betty said. After ten more painful minuets Ms. Betty was finally done. "I'm done." Ms. Betty said. I was then lead over to a full length mirror. I just couldn't belive the reflection in the mirror. This person could not possibly be me. She was gorgeous. Her hair instead of a boring light brown with no life to it was now blonde with many curls in it. I then let out a laugh. "That's a first." Ms. Betty said. "I'm sorry I love my hair it is that one of my curls tickled the back of my neck." I said. "You silly girl.' Ms. Betty said.

After all the girls were done we headed back to camp. "I just want to say that you all look amazing." Karen said. "Thank you." We all said in unison. We had about an hour before dinner.

"Stephanie you look amazing." Donna said. 'Thank you I feel so pretty. Can I ask you a personal question." I asked. "Let's wait for tonight okay." Donna said. "It's a deal." I said.

After we changed into our Alice in Wonderland dresses we headed to the cafeteria for dinner. Our table was by a window.

"Ladies I will like to introduce myself. My name is Karen and I am in charge of the cafeteria here. Everyone one of you will get to help the kitchen staff during your stay here. You will help prepare the meal, serve the meal, and clean up after the meal. Our staff will doing it tonight so pay close attention." Karen said.

"Well that sucks." Donna said. "It won't be to bad it is only for one day. Hey maybe they will teach us how to cook." I said. "Maybe but it still sucks." Donna said. After a wonderful meal which the staff served us.

"Ladies I will like to officially welcome you to Camp Make-up. My name is Ms. Jones and I am the camp director here. I started this camp about thirteen years ago. Like all of you I was born a boy but always knew deep down that I should have been a girl. After I won the lottery I started this camp to help people find themselves. The most important rule here at camp is to always have fun and never make anyone else feel bad about themselves. We are all friends here. Is that understood." Ms. Jones said. We all said yes as fast as we could. We could tell that Ms. Jones meant business.

"We have a lot of fun activities for you this wee which we will go into great detail tonight at the camp fire. The camp store will be opening in a couple of minuets. You all need to be back here by eight o'clock. Don't be late." Ms. Jones said. Before we left we were give the day we were going to help out at the cafeteria. Since this was a small week we had to help out twice. Donna's and I days were Tuesday of our first week and Thursday of our second week.

"Let's do some serious shopping." Donna said. 'I'm right behind you.' I said as we headed to the camp store. The camp store was like a small mall. It had clothes as far as the eye can see. "They are so beautiful.' I said. "I know. I got to have that one and that one and that one." Donna said. "Be careful you don't want to spend all your money on the first day." I said. "Your right but look at these prices." Donna said. 'I just could not belive it. I walked up to a white floral print dress that had red roses on it which usually cost over one hundred dollars was only twenty dollars. "Donna." I said. "Yes." Donna said. "Forget what I said earlier." I said. "Don't worry I have already have." Donna said. "I see you take my opinion very serious." I said. "I do but not about shopping." Donna said. She then playfully hit me on the shoulder. I have only known Donna for merely hours but it seemed to me that we have been best friends for life. I don't have many friends and I hope Donna could become my best friend in the whole wide world. Donna bought a dress and I bought a frosty pink lipstick that matched my nails. I wanted to pace myself.

The campfire took place at the arena. All the camper sat on wooden bleachers that were elevated. "Welcome to opening ceremonies for Camp make-up. Now what are you girls going to do all week." Ms. Jones said. She then put her head in her hands and acted like she was thinking. "Well they could come down to the lake for fun in the sun and even a trip to our water park." Stephanie said. "That's a great idea." Ms. Jones said. 'I have a better idea. They could come to the crafts building and make there own dresses and even model them at the fashion show." Another girl said. "Janice that is a wonderful idea." Ms. Jones said. 'Hello ladies my name is Janice and I am in charge of the crafts area and I am also your program director. We have so many wonderful activities planed this week. Make sure you talk to your troop counselor every day to find out what the activity for the day is." Janice said. There were so many wonderful activities to do. We could go horse back riding, take a nature walk, and many more. There were so much to do that I don't think two weeks will be enough. "Ladies Monday is going to be a busy day for all of you so I want you to get a good night sleep. If you are scheduled for cafeteria duty be there by six." Ms. Jones said.

After our baths we are headed back to our cabins. 'I can't sleep." I said. 'Me too." Donna said. "Then let's talk." I said. "Sounds great. Tell me your story." Donna asked. "Hey you tricked me." I said. "After you tell me yours I will tell you mine." Donna said. "It's a deal. When I was ten I was looking out my window and saw the girls of the neighborhood playing with there dolls and I had an urge in me to run and play with them. My Mom didn't mind at first. I guess she was happy that I had some friends. I had so much joy playing with them. After a couple of weeks My Mom and I went shopping and I spotted this beautiful doll that I just had to have. I beg my Mom to buy it for me and she said no. Every time I went shopping with her after that I beg her to buy it for me and she kept saying no. I guess she got tired of arguing with me and banished me from playing with the neighborhood girls. I was so miserable. I just wouldn't leave my room. My Mom didn't now what to do so she deiced to take me to a Doctor who asked me a lot of funny questions. After my Mom had a long talk with the doctor she deiced to make a compromise with me. I wasn't allowed to play with the neighborhood girls but she was willing to buy me my doll. I just loved that doll I never put her down. My Mom didn't like it but she was satisfied. That went on for about a year. Then when I hit eleven I got this need to dress as a girl. I would sneak in my Mom's closet and try on all her clothes. My Mom went nuts so she took me back to the doctor. I just couldn't stop I think I dressed almost every day. I was talking with my doctor one day when she suggested me attending this camp. Let me tell you I was so excited I just couldn't stop talking about it. My Mom finally agreed to let me go. I guess she thinks that after living as a girl for two weeks I would want to stop. Parents are so silly." I said. "Wow." Donna said.

"It's your turn." I said. "Okay but it is not as exciting as yours." Donna said. 'I don't care." I said. "Okay I guess I always knew that I wanted to be a girl. I told my Mom about my feelings and she went nuts. After a couple of days she calmed down. She then said let's give it a try and see if you like it. So she bought me a girls' wardrobe and I got to dress as a girl on weekends. I still had to be a boy during the week when I was at school. After a couple of months my Mom realized that this phase was not going away so she took me to a doctor and after a couple of visits my doctor proclaimed that I was indeed a transsexual and suggested putting me on female hormones which I started a week before I came to camp. Oh Stephanie I am so happy. When I go back to school this fall I will get to go as a girl." Donna said. Just then I broke into tears. I wished my Mom was as understanding as Donna's Mom. "I didn't mean to make you sad." Donna said. "I'm sorry you are just so lucky. I want to be a girl so bad that it is eating me up inside." I said as I cried some more. 'Listen you get to be a girl for the next two weeks so let's make the best of it. Maybe my Mom can talk to your Mom." Donna said. She then walked over to me and gave me a hug. I felt so close to her at that moment. I just knew that we were going to be friends for a long time. After crying for ten minuets I went to the bathroom and washed my face. I took a long look at myself in the mirror and thought to myself that Donna is right I am going to make the best of these two weeks.

"Good morning ladies." Ms. Jones said. "Good morning." We all said. "I see you all didn't listen to me. You silly girls stayed up all night. Here is how today is going to work. In the morning you will attend classes and the afternoon is free for you to do whatever you want." Ms. Jones said.

Our first stop was to the crafts building. "Good morning ladies. I will like to welcome you to crafts class. We are going to work on making our dresses for the fashion show. It is not as hard as it sounds. The first thing I want you to do is draw a picture of the dress you want to make. I recommend you make it as easy as possible to begin with. You can always add flare to it later." Janice said. The fashion show was going to be on Saturday and we had only five days. "What are you going to make Donna?' I asked. "No peaking." Donna said. After a couple of minuets that felt like hours I finally came up with an idea. I was going to make a lace back slip dress that was white and had red roses on it. It will go down to about four inches above my knees and it would button up the front. I know it sounds conservative but I saw it in a shop window one day and I fell in love with it.

"I just can't do this." Donna said. "Yes you can." I said. "I am glad that you have confidence in me." Donna said. "Just take your time." I said. After a couple of tries Donna was able to do it. "What do you think?' Donna asked. "It's beautiful.' I said. I just knew that the dress was going to look better on her than it did on paper. "Stephanie very good. You are a natural." Janice said. "Thank you." I said. I think I blushed about ten shades of red.

Our next stop was the lake. After we changed into our bathing suits we sat on the beach. "We have a lot of classes to offer you. You can choose from lifeguarding to scuba diving." Stephanie said. I deiced to take lifeguarding.

'Okay ladies the first think we are going to do is swim some laps." Stephanie said. We had to swim about four laps around the swim area. "Stephanie." I said. "Yes dear." Stephanie said. "When do we get to take out the speed boats." I asked. "I'm sorry but you are a little to young. Now lifeguarding is a lot of work. It is not about getting a great tan. It comes with a lot responsibility. I am going to teach you all the different techniques and you will even get to lifeguard during free swim.' Stephanie said. She then handed us some books to look over.

After our time at the lake it was lunch time. "What are you going to do after lunch?' I asked. "I think I am going to work on my dress for a while.' I said. "That's a good idea but let's have some fun.' Donna said. "What do you mean?' I asked. "Let's go horse back ridding." Donna said. "I don't know animals really don't like me." I said. "Nonsense. I all ready made our appointments with the horses. It's to late to back down." Donna said. 'I guess I'm stuck." I said. "You got that right." Donna said.

After lunch I walked as slow as I could to the stables. I was so nervous. "Stop acting silly. You are going to be fine." Donna said.

"Your right on time. My name is Billie. Here change into these and let's find you a horse." Billie said. We then slipped into our very tight riding pants and placed a little black hat on our heads.

"You both look nice. Now let's get going." Billie said. My horse was beautiful. It was a white stallion. "Calm down honey. You are going to have a lot of fun." Billie said. We then hit the trail. I was bouncing up and down the whole time. It did not feel good. At least the horse seemed to like me. "Billie what's that." I asked. 'It's Camp Wildcat it's the boy's camp." Billie said. "Are they cute?' Donna asked. "Very but they are a little to old for you." Billie said. "That stinks." Donna said. "I'm sorry come back next year and find out how cute they are yourself." Billie said. After a couple more miles we made our way back to the stables.

To be honest with you I had a great time horse back riding. The only part I didn't like was right now. I smelled like a horse. "I need a bath." I said. "Your telling me." Donna said.

After our nice long bath which felt so good. "I never thought I would get that horse smell off me." I said.

We then changed into a pink ankle length dress that had a white bow in the back. I put on my pink one inch heels. "We have an hour before dinner. Let's do our faces." Donna said. "Sounds great." I said. Donna then applied some light foundation to my faces. She then added some light green eye shadow on my eye lids. She added pink frosty lipstick to my lips and added some light red bush to my cheeks. "You look so beautiful." Donna said. "Thank you for all you have done for me. I don't know what I did to deserve a friend like you." I said. "Knock it off. Just promise me you will help me with my crafts project." Donna said. "It's a deal." I said. We then gave each other a hug and headed to dinner.

After dinner we had a ice cream social. "May I have your attention please. I will be giving make-overs." Ms. Betty said. "Let's go." I said. "I am right behind you." Donna said.

"You two look very nice this evening." Ms. Betty said. "Thank you." Donna and I said. "Who's first?' Ms. Betty asked. "Donna is." I said. "Okay." Ms. Betty said. "You are very beautiful my dear." Ms. Betty said. She then washed Donna's face and gave her an incredible make-over. I hardly recognized her after Ms. Betty was done. "Wow." I said. "Your next my dear." Ms. Betty said. "I'm not sure you can top what you did with Donna." I said. "Let's see." Ms. Betty said.

After an hour she was done. "Wow." I said. "It's all you sweetie. Make-up just brings out the person's best feature. Your make-up tonight was fantastic. Who did it for you.' Ms. Betty asked. "Donna did it." I said. "She is very good." Ms. Betty said. 'Yes she is." I said.

After the social Donna and I spent some time on our dresses but we were way to tired to get much done. We also had to get up early since we had cafeteria duty.

Our alarm clocks went off way to early. Donna and I didn't want to get out of bed. "Took you long enough you too." Karen said. "Sorry it is way to early." I said. "Here are your aprons." Karen said. She then handed us two pink aprons that had ruffles on it. Our job was to set the tables. After the campers arrived we served the meals and after the meal we cleared the tables and did the dishes. We had to hurry to make it to crafts on time.

"It's about time." Janice said. "Sorry." I said. 'It's okay. Today was are going to begin making the dresses." Janice said. We had to measure each other. We all were in our bras and panties. I looked around and saw some of the girls even were beginning to develop. I could see there nipples begin to swell up a little. "Let's see you have a twenty inch waist and a twenty four inch chest." I said. "Let's do you." Donna said. "Wow you have a twenty three inch waist and a twenty eight inch chest. You are going to look so great when you get your breasts." Donna said. "I sure hope so. I would just love to have them." I said. "You will you just can't give up hope." Donna said.

After we took our measurements we picked out the fabric for our dresses. Tomorrow we were going to start making them.

Lifeguarding class went great. I was really getting the handle of it. I just loved learning how to save lives.

Lunch duty went really easy since all we had was hot dogs and a bag of chips. Donna and I were scheduled to mop the cafeteria. "This isn't to bad." I said. "Speak for yourself." Donna said. "I got a idea to cheer you up. Let's work on our tans this afternoon." I said. "I love that idea." Donna said.

After we finished moping the cafeteria we headed to the lake. Donna convinced me to wear a bikini which was pink and had a tie on top. It had a skirted bottom. "I knew you would look good in a bikini." Donna said. "Thank you. You don't look to bad yourself." I said. "I sure wish boys were here." Donna said. "Me too." I said. 'Really I didn't think you liked boys." Donna said. "I'm coming around." I said. "Good." Donna said.

We then laid on the beach and let the Arizona sun tan our bodies. "You ladies look beautiful this afternoon." Stephanie said. After two hours of tanning we had to leave for cafeteria duty. Luckily for us this was the last time for a while.

The whole camp was pretty tired so we all headed back to our cabin to get a good night sleep.

Tomorrow was going to be a big day. We were going to have the camp water carnival. Donna and I were going to participate in as many events as possible. I was having so much fun the problem was that it was going way to fast. I just couldn't belive that tomorrow was Wednesday all ready. I also noticed a little bump in my chest. I sure hoped it was the start of something special. I fell a sleep with a huge smile on my face.

"You are in a good mood this morning." Donna said. "I feel great. Here feel this." I said. I then lifted up my blouse and showed her my chest. She then began to feel my breasts. "You feel that." I said. "Yes I do it is only a matter of time." Donna said. "I sure hope so." I said.

"Janice I am never going to finish on time." Donna said. "Yes you will. You just need to spend more time working on your dress than going to the camp store." Janice said. "I just love the dresses they sell. Why can't we just model one of them." Donna asked. "Well Donna it will be a lot more satisfy for you if you model your own creation. Trust me." Janice said. "I'll help you." I said. "That would be great but we only have a couple of days." Donna said. She was really getting upset. "Listen up ladies. Every year girls complain that they will never finish but they always do." Janice said. We spent the rest of the morning session working on our creations. As I looked around I saw the beautiful creations beginning to come to. It was going to be a awesome show.

The whole camp was a buzz for the water carnival this afternoon. We were all going to report to the lake at four in the afternoon which gave us a little time to relax.

"Ladies I will like to welcome you to the water carnival. We have a lot of events for you to participate in. The first event is going to be the sand castle building contest that will take place throughout the carnival." Stephanie said. Just then about ten girls came into the area.

"The next event is going to be the water balloon toss." Stephanie said. "That's us." I said. "Let's go get them." Donna said. We started off pretty well we made it to the finals before we got beat.

"You girls did great." Karen said. "Thanks I thought we had it." I said. "Yeah I guess I thew that last balloon a little to hard." Donna said. Donna and I sat out the next two events to give our other troop members a chance.

"The next event is the relay race." Stephanie said. "We are sure going to win this one." Donna said. "No doubt about it.' I said. The relay race was pretty simple. One person swam out to the dock and back and then the other one did the same thing. Donna and I smoked the competition.

An hour later the carnival came to an end. There was fun by all. We were going to find out who won at dinner.

"That was great." Donna said. "I know I sure hope we won." I said. "I'm sure we did." Donna said. "Let's look extra pretty tonight. I am in a pretty mood." I said. "You read my mind." Donna said.

After a quick bath Donna and I headed back to our cabin. "I am going to try to do my make-up myself tonight." I said. "Go for it." Donna said. After I changed into my white bra and panties I headed over to my vanity table and began my make-up. "You can do it. Just take your time." Donna said as she began apply her make-up. I first started with my light foundation. I made sure it was even all over my face. I then added light green eye shadow to my lids. It took me a couple of tries to make sure it was even on my eye lids. I then applied pink lipstick to my lips and added blush to my cheeks. "What do you think?' I asked as I ran my brush through my hair that was still very curly. "You did a amazing job." Donna said. "Thank you but I still need a lot of practice." I said. "That is what this camp is all about." Donna said.

I deiced to wear my light green dress that had rose detail and went down to my ankles. It was cut tight against my stomach and had puffy sleeves. I slipped on my white three inch sandals and Donna and I headed to dinner.

"Enough with the suspense. Stephanie and Donna will you please come up and accept your water melon for your troop." Stephanie said. We were all so excited Donna and I had huge smiles on our faces as we walked to the front of the cafeteria. "Don't eat it all at ounce." Stephanie said. "We won't." I said.

"Ladies I am so proud of you all. You did a wonderful job." Karen said. We then began to eat the watermelon. I then began to look around at my troop members and realized that I didn't know any of them. I was spending so much time with Donna that I forgot all about the other members.

Thursday afternoon Donna and I spent our time back at our camp site. "Donna I was thinking." I said. "Oh no that can be dangerous." Donna said. "Oh Donna. I was just thinking that we have been spending so much time with each other that we haven't got to know the other campers." I said. "I like spending time with you. You are really nice." Donna said. "Thank you but we need to open our horizons." I said. "Okay let's give it a try." Donna said. We both spent the rest of the afternoon working on our dresses. Janice was right I think we had a good chance of finishing by Saturday.

"Good morning ladies. It's Friday and that means water park day." Ms. Jones said. There was then a roar from the crowd. "I know you are all happy. We are going to spend the whole day at the park. So I want everyone to report to the lake.

"My name is Stephanie what's yours." I asked a girl who seemed to by herself. "I'm Amy." Amy said. "I'm Donna." Donna said. "It is nice to meet you both." Amy said. "You want to ride with us to water park." I asked. "I would love that." Amy said.

The ride to the water park was amazing. We got a tour of the lake. We also saw the Camp Wildcat. "Hey Stephanie I got a great idea." Donna said. I didn't like the tone in her voice. "What?" I asked. "Let's sneak over to the boy's camp and check it out." Donna said. "I don't think that is a good idea." I said. "Hey don't you want to make sure that you are into boys." Donna said. "Yes but I don't want to get into trouble." I said. "What is life without a little danger." Donna said. "I guess so." I said. "Good let me think of a plan." Donna said. I was a little worried.

"We're here." Stephanie said as she pulled the boat up to the water park. The water park had a couple of slides, a lazy river, and a wave pool. "Ladies have fun. When lunch is ready I will call you." Stephanie said.

'Let's go to the slides first." Donna said. "Right behind you. Come on Amy." I said. "I'm coming." Amy said. The slides were great. There was a curvy slides, a slide you used a inner tube and a slide that went straight down. After spending four hours on the slides it was time for lunch.

"Ladies I thought it would be a good time to do a little bonding so I am closing down the water park so we can talk." Ms. Jones said. There was then a loud groan. "None of that ladies." Ms. Jones said.

"So Amy are you enjoying camp." I asked. "Oh yes I just love it. It is like a dream come true." Amy said. "I feel the same way." I said. "I am a little worried that I won't get my dress done in time." Amy said. "I was worried also but Stephanie here is a genius with a needle and thread." Donna said. "I will be happy to give you a hand." I said. "I would like that." Amy said. Amy was quickly becoming a very close friend. I don't think she will be as close as Donna is to me but she is getting there. We spent for what seemed like hours talking. We covered so much subjects that it was tough to keep up. We were still talking non stop on the boat ride home.

Saturday was a day for us to get ready for the fashion show. The crafts area had so many campers there that you could barely breath.

"Donna can you check something for me?" I asked. "Sure." Donna said. "Is my seams straight." I asked. "They look good from here." Donna said. "I am so nervous. What if I fall down." I said. "That won't happen. Just remember to smile and everything will be great. By the way we leave tomorrow for Camp Wildcat." Donna said. "You sure picked a good time to tell me. We are about to go on." I said. "You will do great.

I sure hope so. I did love my dress. I was so proud of myself. I made a lace back slip dress that button up the front and had a scoop front that would have looked great if my breasts were a little bigger. It went down to about four inches above my knees.

"A little nervous." Ms. Betty asked. "You can tell." I said. "Yes. I got something to help your dress a little." Ms. Betty said. "You don't like it." I asked. I was a little offended. "No I love the dress." Ms. Betty said. She then unbuttoned my dress and exposed my chest. She then put a white substance on my chest which made my breasts pop out a little. She then attached two size A breasts forms to it. They even moved when I moved. "I just love them." I said. "I thought you would. You are going to do wonderful tonight." Ms. Betty said. I then buttoned my dress back up and there sure was a huge difference. My confidence went through the roof.

I was going to go third. It was finally my turn. I took a deep breath and stepped on stage. Stephanie represented the staff and she did a wonderful job. I tried to mock the way she walked. I made sure I swung my hips as I walked onto the stage. I felt like a model as I walked on stage. The rest of the girls did a awesome job. Ms. Jones was very pleased with our of all creations.

Sunday was a going to be a day off for the camp. We were on such a high form the fashion show. "Your ready." Donna asked. "I am so nervous." I said. "You are going to have a blast. Here put this one." Donna said. She then handed me a white blouse and a flora print mini skirt that came down to just about four inches above my knees. I just couldn't stop looking at my breasts. I just loved them. I put on a pair of tennis shows. We put our heels in our purse. "Are you ready?' Donna asked. "As ready as I will ever be." I said.

Our plan was that we were going to take the horse trail. It was going to be a long walk.

"There it is." Donna said. We were overlooking the camp. The camp seemed to be dead. There didn't seem to be anyone there. "I think it is abandoned." I said. "Nonsense. Let's go." Donna said. We then walked down the hill and walked into the camp.

"Hello anyone here.' I asked. "Stephanie be quiet." Donna said. "Sorry." I said. Camp Wildcat was set up about the same way that Camp Make-up was. We walked by the cafeteria and still didn't see anyone. "Maybe they are down at the lake." Donna asked. "I think we should turn around." I said. "Don't be scared. Let's go see some boys in there swim suits." Donna said.

When we arrived at the lake the whole camp seemed to be swimming away. "Wow they are cute." Donna said. "I'm not sure." I said. "Give me your honest opinion." Donna asked. "I guess there okay." I said. "Just okay. Girl you have a lot to learn." Donna said.

"Hello ladies." A man said. "Hello." I said. "My name is Robert and I am in charge of the aquatics area. Where are you two from." Robert asked. "We'll from Camp Make-up." I said. "I see. I think it is a good idea to give Ms. Jones a call and tell her two of her campers got lost." Robert said. "Please don't do that. We would get in so much trouble." I said. "I'm sorry but I have to do it. I will be happy to give you ladies a ride." Robert said. "Can we at least stay for a while." Donna asked. "I'm sorry. Come back next year and you will get to spend a lot of time with us." Robert said.

The car ride back to Camp Make-up was very long. I just knew that we were in deep trouble. "Robert so nice of you to return our girls." Ms. Jones said. "You are so welcome." Robert said. "By the way Stephanie can't wait till your date tonight." Ms. Jones said. "Figures all the good ones are taken." Donna said. I then gave out a little laugh. "You think this is funny Stephanie." Ms. Jones said. "No not at all. We are so sorry. It won't happen again." I said. "Yes we are very sorry." Donna said. "I appreciate your admitting your guilt but that does not excuse what you did. You two could have gotten hurt. Now for your punishment. You are banned from all camp activities until Wednesday. You will also do cafeteria duty until then." Ms. Jones said. "That's crazy. Please reconsider." I said. "I'm sorry but my ruling stands. Now report to the cafeteria for dinner." Ms. Jones said.

"Was it worth it?' I asked. "Yes it was." Donna said. "Welcome ladies." Karen said. We then put on our aprons and began getting ready for dinner. After dinner we moped the cafeteria.

Before we were to report to breakfast we had to make a special stop at Ms. Betty's. "Hello ladies." Ms. Betty said. "Good morning." I said. "Here you go." Ms. Betty said. She then handed us a white blouse and a green and jumper. "You are expected to wear to wear these until your punishment is over." Ms. Betty said.

"This is so bad." Donna said as we were clearing the tables from breakfast. "I know but it is only for a couple of days." I said. "I'm so sorry I got you in trouble." Donna said. "It's not to bad. At least we get to wear these pretty jumpers. I never got to wear a school jumper before." I said. "You always look on the bright side of things." Donna said. "Life is to short not to." I said.

Our punishment seemed to last forever. Not only did we have cafeteria duty but we also had to clan the buildings and pick up trash around camp.

"It was finally Wednesday and our punishment was over. "I missed you guys." Amy said. "We missed you." I said. 'Ladies I have a special surprise for you when we get to the water park." Stephanie said. "What is it?' I asked. "It's a surprise." Stephanie said.

After a short boat ride that felt like hours we arrived at the water park. "Welcome ladies. My name is Robert and I will like to introduce you to the boys of Camp Wildcat." Robert said. Just then someone hit me in my ribs. Donna then gave me a funny look as like to say we got in trouble for nothing. "Everyone enjoy themselves today." Robert said.

"My name is Ben." Ben asked. He had the deepest blue eyes that I seemed to get lost in. "I'm Stephanie." I said. "It's nice to meet you." Ben said. I then looked around and Donna was gone. "You want to take a ride on the lazy river." Ben asked. "That would be great." I said. For some reason I wanted to spend a lot of time with Ben. I had these feelings for him that I never felt towards another boy before. I guess Donna was right I really do like boys. "What's going on in that pretty head of yours." Ben asked. "I was just thinking what a beautiful day it is today." I said. "You got that right." Ben said.

Ben and I got in a tube together and began floating down the river. "Having fun." Ben asked. "Having a blast." I said as I moved closer to Ben. I then ran my hands over his chest. He was so strong.

Ben and I spent the whole day together. As the sun was lowering Ben took me to a secluded spot in the woods. The sun was sitting and the Moon was coming up and at that very moment I received my first kiss. The kiss seemed to last forever I think I even saw fireworks going off. "I had a great time today." Ben said. 'Me too." I said. Ben then took my hand and lead me back to the boat.

"Took you two long enough." Stephanie said. "We're sorry." Ben and I said. "It's okay I will let it go.' Stephanie said. Ben and I sat as close together as possible as we rode back to the Camp Wildcat. I was so sad to see Ben go. "Ben here is something to remember me by." I said as I gave him a big kiss. "I won't forget you. Here is my number." Ben said. "I will call you as soon as I get home. I just can't stand to be apart." I said. "We will never be apart. I will think of you all the time." Ben said. 'That's so sweet." I said. Ben then pulled me close to him and gave me a kiss that I would soon not forget.

"I just knew it. You just had to find the right person." Donna said. "Your were right. I know I only spent a day with Ben but I am in so much in love with him. Do I sound silly." I asked. "No not at all. You are just in love." Donna said. I slept so well that night. I had the best dream about Ben and I.

Thursday was a blur for me. I just couldn't get my mind off Ben. I loved him so much and I had to see him again. In all my happiness over Ben I totally forgot that Friday was going to be our last full day here.

"I don't want to go home." I said. "Me either." Donna said. Friday was spent cleaning up loose ends. I ended up putting my initials in one of my towels in crafts class. Stephanie was very nice allowing me to catch up for all the time I missed.

"I had so much fun these two weeks." I said as I finished putting on my make-up. "Me too. We just got to stay in touch." Donna said. "You can count on that." I said. Donna and I gave each other a long hug. We made sure not to ruin our make-up.

The whole camp was in a sad mood during the closing ceremonies. "Cheer up ladies. You have all grown so much these past two weeks. When I call your name please come down to the stage." Ms. Jones said. We were then all called down to the stage where we received a crown and a picture book that had pictures of our wonderful memories from the past two weeks.

"I have an idea to cheer you up." Ms. Jones said. "What?" We all asked. "You will see. Follow me to the cafeteria." Ms. Jones said.

Our mood quickly changed when we walked in. There standing in the cafeteria was the boys from Camp Wildcat. "Ben." I said as I ran up to him. "Hello sweetie. I missed you so much." Ben said as he gave me a kiss. "It looks like Stephanie got an early start. Everyone have fun tonight." Ms. Jones said.

Music began playing. "Would you like to dance?" Ben asked. "I would love to." I said. Ben then took my hand and lead me to the dance floor. Ben then put his arms around my waist and pulled me close to him. I then put my arms around his neck and we began to dance. I felt so safe in his arms. I looked over and saw Amy and Donna dancing with boys also. We all had huge smiles on our faces. Ben and I danced for hours.

"I promise I will call you call you as soon as I get home." Ben said. "You better." I said. "I will." Ben said. He then pulled me close to him and gave me a kiss that I won't soon forget.

Saturday was a very tough day for all of us. No one wanted to say good-bye. Ms. Jones had to practically push us out of camp. "I will miss you so much." I said. "I will miss you. You better call me." Donna said. "I will. See you next year." I said. We then gave each other a long hug. We both knew that we were going to be friends for a long time.

Attending Camp Make-up was a dream come true for me and I will never forget my time I spent there.

 

Epilogue

My Mom had the shock of her life as I walked from the plane. After a couple of hours of yelling she finally realized that it was not a phrase that I was going to grow out anytime soon. The following summer I return to Camp Make-up as a full time girl with my own breasts.

Ben and I had remained very close. We call each other almost everyday until my Mom got mad at me because of the expensive phone bills that she limited our calls to once a week. Every summer we would return to Camp Make-up and Camp Wildcat and renew our romance. We both went to the same college and our still together who says summer flings don't last.

Donna and I have remained great friends. Donna and her Mom had moved to the same city that I lived in. We are extremely close friends. Donna's mom had helped my Mom adjust to life with a daughter.

We are all so happy and we owe it all to Camp Make-up where dreams really do come true.

 

Session Two (14-16 year olds)

"Are you sure about this camp dear?' My Mom asked. "Yes Mom I am." I said. "I just wanted to make sure. Now remember our deal. I only allow to do this silly girl stuff if you become a lady. You must be perfect at all times." My Mom said. "I will. I won't disappoint you. Trust me Mom I was born to be a girl and in two weeks I will show you." I said. "I'm still not sure but I love you and if this is what you want to do then go have fun." My Mom said. "I will I promise." I said. I then gave my Mom a hug good bye and boarded my plane.

I was heading to Camp Make-up which is located in Arizona. It is for boys who want to be girls. I am not your normal sixteen year old boy. I had light brown hair and was five eleven and sure hoped I stopped growing. Ever since I was little I always knew that I was meant to be a girl. I would tell my mom every day that I wanted to be a girl. She finally got tired of listening to me and she took me to a doctor who diagnosed me as a transsexual and suggested female hormones which I started a month ago. The only way my Mom would let me become a girl if I become a proper young lady and that is where Camp Make-up comes in.

"Welcome dear." A lady said. "Thank you are you from Camp Make-up." I asked. "I sure am. Now what is your name." The lady said. "My name is Stephanie." I said. It is really Jeff but I much prefer Stephanie and I insists everyone calls me by it. "That's a lovely name. Are you ready for some fun." The lady asked. "I sure am." I said.

After a twenty minute car ride we arrived at the camp. It was more beautiful I could ever imagine. It was located in the middle of the Arizona dessert and had a beautiful lake in the middle of it. "What's that place?' I asked as I looked across the lake. "Good eye my dear. That is Camp Wildcat it is a boy's camp. We will be spending a lot of time with them. You do like boys do you." The lady asked. "I'm not sure." I said. "That will change. Let's go check you in." The lady said.

"Welcome my dear. I am Ms. Jones and I am in charge here. What's your name." Ms. Jones asked. "I'm Stephanie." I said. "What a lovely name. Let me see here." Ms. Jones said. She then took out a piece of paper and began to look at it. "Here you are. Cabin number five. That is a beautiful one it is right by the lake." Ms. Ryan said. She then handed me a map of the camp and I was off.

"Hello my dear. I'm Karen and I will be your troop counselor. I am here to help you in any way I can. Now what cabin are you in." Karen asked. "Cabin five." I said. "That's a lovely one. It is right this way. Your roommate hasn't arrived yet." Karen said.

The cabin was awesome it was so big. It had two queen size beds, a vanity table, a chest of drawers, a closet, pink shaggy carpet on the floor, and white wall paper that had red roses on it. "You have a couple of minuets to get settled in. In about hour we have to head to lake for our swim test and make overs." Karen said. "Can't wait." I said. "That's the spirit." Karen said.

After she left I began to unpack my suitcase. I bought all my girl's clothes that I had. I didn't have that many but I loved the ones that I had. I was hoping to buy some clothes during my time at camp.

I was looking at a list of all the activities that Camp Make-up had to offer when a young girl walked in who was about five six and had long black hair. "Hello." I said. "Hello." The girl said. "My name is Stephanie what's yours." I asked. "You don't need to know that. You better not get into any of my stuff. You hear me." The girl said. "I won't." I said. I wonder what her problem was. If she was going to be my roommate it was going to be a long two weeks but hey I not going to spend all time in my cabin.

"Stephanie and Donna it's time to go. Don't forget your swim suits." Karen said. Donna that's her name I thought as I grabbed my swim suit. It was a light purple one piece that was cut high on my legs and had a low scoop back. "Your wearing that." Donna asked. "Yes I am. What's wrong with it." I asked. "I just know I wouldn't be caught dead in it." Donna said. She then grabbed a two piece bikini that had very little material to it.

After a short walk we arrived at the lake. It was so beautiful. It sat at the bottom of a hill. Standing in front of us was a very feminine person. She had long curly blonde hair that sat on her shoulders. She was wearing a red two piece scuba suit that had a zip front high neck that showed off her breasts and had red high cut bottom that showed off her long legs. "Ladies my name is Stephanie and I am the Aquatics Director here. We have a lot of fun stuff planed this week. Today you are going to take your swim test. All you need to do is swim out towards the dock turn around and swim back. Good luck to you all." Stephanie said. I was a very good swimmer and past the test pretty easy.

Our next stop was to Ms. Betty's who was the camp doctor and also ran the beauty salon. "Hello ladies. Today is all for you. I want to give you a check up and then it is beauty time. Okay who is first." Ms. Betty asked. Just then someone pushed me from behind and I stumbled forward. "Thanks for volunteering my dear. I promise it won't hurt." Ms. Betty said. "Your welcome." I said. I gave Donna an angry look as I followed Ms. Betty to the back.

"Hello my dear. Don't be nervous. I won't hurt you. What's your name." Ms. Betty asked. "It's Stephanie." I said. "Very lovely. You know our Aquatics Director has that same name." Ms. Betty said. "I know she is a very lovely lady.' I said. "I know." Ms. Betty said with a little smile on her face. "Now how is everything going today." Ms. Betty asked. "I just love it here. My roommate doesn't like me." I said. "That will change. Pretty soon you two will be best of friends. Now let me see here." Ms. Betty said. She then took out a chart. "Let's see you have only been on hormones for a month. Is that true." Ms. Betty asked. "Sadly yes it took a lot convincing on my part to get my Mom to let me take hormones. I just can't wait till they kick in." I said. "Just give it time. Now please change into this paper gown and we can get on with your examination." Ms. Betty said.

After I changed into the gown I headed to the examination table. "Let's see what we have here." Ms. Betty said. She than began to check my nose, my thwart, and my ears. "This won't hurt a bit." Ms. Betty said. She then gave me a shot in each breasts. I looked down and saw them pop up a little. "Wow." I said. "Now calm down. It take patience. Changing a dull boy into a beautiful young lady takes time but there is no problem in speeding up your development a little." Ms. Betty said. "No not at all." I said with a huge smile. "I thought so. Now roll over." Ms. Betty said. She then gave me two shots one in each butt. "Stephanie you are going to be a little sore tomorrow but that will go away. I put female hormone capsules in your butt that will filter female hormones throughout your body at all times. Now roll back over." Ms. Betty said. I was so happy I couldn't contain myself. I didn't even notice Ms. Betty give me two shots in my maleness until the pain ran through my body. "Stand up my dear." Ms. Betty said. After I stood up I looked down and saw that my maleness has shrunk to twice it's normal size. Ms. Betty then took a flesh like garment and pulled it up between my legs. She then pulled my maleness between my legs and finished pulling up the garment. She made a couple of adjustments and then pulled a string. I felt a jolt of pain run through my body. "Please take it off. I think I am going to pass out." I said. "No you won't. Now I want you never to take it off. You can even go to the rest room in it. Now stand still.' Ms. Betty said. She then applied a substance to my chest and then attached two size B breasts forms that looked very life like. I then ran my hands over them and could not belive it. "They feel so real." I said. "I thought you would like them. They are the best breasts forms on the market. You never have to take them off." Ms. Betty said. I then changed back into my clothes and walked out of her office. I felt so pretty with my new additions to my body.

I then sat and waited for the rest of our group to go. After the last person was finished we headed to the beauty salon for our make overs. "You have very beautiful hair." Ms. Betty said. "Thank you I just love the length and can't wait till it grows longer." I said. My hair was down to my shoulders. "I have a perfect plan for it and you are just going to love it." Ms. Betty said. She then went to work and an hour later I was sitting under a hair dryer with many metal rods in my hair which made my head feel very heavy. The hot air from the dryer felt so good that I was beginning to fall asleep.

"Wake up dear." A lady said. "I'm sorry." I said. "That's okay my dear a lot of girls fall asleep under the dryers. Now let's make your hands and feet beautiful.' The lady said. She then took my feet and placed them in a bowl of soapy water. She then took out a file and began to shape them in a nice oval shape. After a couple of minuets she took them out of the bowl and began to paint them a dark red color. I just loved them. I couldn't take my eyes off them. They looked so feminine. She then took my hands and placed them in a bowl of soapy water and began to clean them. She then took a file out and began to shape them in a nice oval shape. After she was finished she began to paint my finger nails a clear color. She then began to attach ten fake finger nails to my finger nails that extend about a third of an inch past my finger tips. She then took out a file and began to shape them into a nice oval shape. She then pained them a dark red color. She even added a second coat to them. She then added a clear polish to them that gave them a glossy shine. "What do you think?' The lady asked. "I just love them." I said. "Good. It looks like your hair is dry." The lady said.

After spending a half an hour back in the chair I was back under the dryers and then back to the chair for twenty minuets. I just couldn't wait to see the final results. "Please yet me see." I asked. "No not yet. I don't want to show you until I am completely done. I want to do your make-up." Ms. Betty said.

I was so excited this would be the first time I had my make-up done by a professional. I have read many books about make-up but I always made a couple mistakes. "Now just sit still and listen to everything I tell you." Ms. Betty said.

"Now we need to thin out your eye brows a little. They are a little to bushy." Ms. Betty said. She then took out her tweezers and began to pluck my eye brows. It hurt a lot but beauty is pain and I wanted to be beautiful. After twenty minuets she was finally done.

She first started with my foundation. She made sure it was even all over. "You are lucky your beard hasn't come in it. Hopefully with you on female hormones you won't need to have it removed." Ms. Betty said as she finished my foundation.

She then took out a light green eye shadow and began to apply it to my eye lids. "This is going to take a lot of practice to get it right. You should practice every night." Ms. Betty said.

"I am going to give you a ultra sexy look." Ms. Betty said. She then took out a pair of false eye lashes and placed them on my eye lids. She then took some black eye liner and outlined my eye lashes and then curled them with a black mascara.

"It's time for your lips. Now you want to make sure they are very kissable for all those boys you plan on kissing." Ms. Betty said. I still wasn't sure about kissing boys I thought to myself as Ms. Betty outlined my lips with a light red liner and filled them in with a dark red lipstick. She then added some blush to my cheeks. "Now let's see what you think." Ms. Betty asked.

I was nervous and excited at the same time as I was lead to a full length mirror. "Take a look my dear." Ms. Betty said. I slowly opened my eyes and looked into the mirror. I just couldn't belive that the person in the mirror was me. She was gorgeous. Her hair was a very curly blonde and her make-up made her look so innocent. "Wow." I said. "It's all you my dear. Make-up only brings out the beauty of the person. Now you have about an hour till diner. I will see you then." Ms. Betty said. "Thank you so much. I feel so pretty." I said.

I didn't think Donna could become more beautiful than the first time I saw her but boy was I wrong. She was a knock out. "You look amazing." I said. "Listen I don't like you. I am stuck with you as a roommate and I don't like it one bit. I only like real boys. Now if you don't mind I have to get ready for dinner.' Donna said. What did I do I thought as I went to my closet to look for a dress to wear to diner.

I deiced to wear my black and gold gilded lace dress that had a rounded square neckline and cap sleeves. It went down to about four inches above my knees and was cut low across my chest. I slipped on my two inch black heels and headed to dinner.

All the campers looked so pretty. We all had to sit by camp sites so I was stuck at the same table as Donna. She didn't even look at me.

"I will like to welcome you all to Camp Make-up." Ms. Jones said. "Thank you." We all said. "We have a lot of fun activities for you this week which we will go into detail tonight. Now I will like to introduce you to Karen who is in charge of the cafeteria." Ms. Jones said.

"Thank you Ms. Jones. During your stay at camp you will have the opportunity to help out in he cafeteria. You will be assign two days. Your troop counselor will tell you the days you are assigned. Don't be late." Karen said.

We were then dismissed to do what we want to do. I deiced to check out the camp store. There were so many beautiful clothes in there. I also noticed Donna was in the store and she seemed to be having the time of her life. I just don't get her I thought to myself as I watched Donna checked out the clothes.

I didn't want to be late to the opening ceremonies so I headed to the arena. The arena had elevated bleachers that over looked the stage. The ceremonies began with a big musical number put on by the staff. They did dance numbers that showed off the activities that they were going to offer this week.

"As you can see we have a lot of activities for you. Take advantage of them. The only rule we have here at camp is to never put another person down. We are all friends here." Ms. Jones said. We were then dismissed for the night

I slipped into my pink lace panel gown that had a side swept flora and a thigh high slit. I had so much fun today and couldn't wait for tomorrow. I looked over at Donna's bed and she was not there. I sure hoped Ms. Betty was right. Donna seemed like a nice person and I sure wished I could become her friend I thought as my head hit the pillow and I drifted off to sleep.

I arose before my alarm went off and hurried to get ready for the exciting day I had planed. I wore a white blouse and a black mini skirt. I slipped on a pair of three inch heels. I used a light foundation and a light red lipstick for my lips. My hair still looked wonderful from my trip to Ms. Betty's. "Come on sleepy head. You are going to be late." I said. "Five more minuets." Donna said. "Donna you are going to be late." I said as I taped her on her shoulder. "Okay I'm up. Oh it's you." Donna said. Your welcome I thought as I headed to the cafeteria. Donna made it just in time.

After breakfast my first session was in the crafts area. "Welcome ladies. My name is Janice and I am in charge here. Today I am going to begin to teach you how to be proper young ladies. I want you all pay close attention to me. The only way to make it second nature is to do it all the time. For the next two weeks if I see you act UN lady like I will punish you. Do you all understand." Janice said. We all nodded in agreement.

"Good now the first thing we are going to work on your posture. Your posture is very important. Now here is how to do it. Make sure your chin is erect parallel to the floor. Make sure your shoulders are back in a relax position and your chest is high. Tuck your buns under your pelvic box and keep your knees relax and your elbows slightly bent. Now every one give it a try." Janice said. We all gave it a try. Janice had to make a couple of corrections but overall she was satisfied.

"Very good. Now for the next stage. Nothing is more feminine than a graceful walk. Make sure your posture is right before you begin walking. Make sure you maintain your posture as you walk. The first thing you do is lift your thigh slightly don't lead with your shoulders. Move your thigh first. The space between your steps should be no longer than the length of your foot. As you walk act like there is a line running down the center of your path. Never close that line. Keep your elbows close to your waist and keep your toes pointed straight ahead. Here is a good formula for you to remember. 'Head up, shoulders down, thigh forward over your foot. Now I want you to give it a try. I want you all to walk back and forth about one hundred times." Janice said. "One hundred times." We all yelled. "Yes one hundred times. Remember what I told you before we got started you need to practice, practice, and practice some more. Now move it ladies." Janice said. From the sound in her voice there was no arguing so we all began to walk back and forth. "Ladies swing your hips when you walk. Boys love that." Janice said. After an hour we were all finished and very tired. Janice also seemed very pleased.

"Very good ladies. Now go have a seat." Janice said. We all then flopped down on our seats. "Ladies what on earth was that. I was going to teach you how to sit for tomorrow but I see it just can't wait. Now watch me closely. You first walk directly up to the chair and pivot to a back stance position so that your back leg brushes against the chair. You don't have to look you can feel it with the back of your leg. Now slide your back foot under the chair about two or three inches and then lower yourself into the chair. Keep your head erect and your back straight. All your weight should be on your back leg. Make sure to keep your knees together. To get up you slide one foot back from under the chair and keep your torso erect. You lift yourself gracefully in one smooth motion using the muscles in your back leg. Now everyone give it a try." Janice said. We all then began to practice. We would sit and rise from our chairs. Time seemed to have flown by. "Before I dismiss you for lunch I want to remind you that the camp wide fashion show is on Saturday. You will be modeling a swim suit and a dress that you will make so I suggest you get started." Janice said.

After lunch we had some time off to ourselves. I deiced to start on my dress for the fashion show. After working on my dress for a while I deiced to head to the beach to catch some rays.

"Welcome dear. Would you like to go water skiing.' Stephanie asked. "I would love to." I said. "Figured you would. I going to work on tan and get ready for the big dance. I don't want to ruin my hair." Donna said. "I guess she's right. Can I take a rain check." I asked. "Sure honey but don't let other people spoil your fun. Live your own life." Stephanie said. "Thanks for the advice." I said. "Not a problem." Stephanie said.

After a hour and half of working on my tan I headed back to my cabin to get ready for dinner. Dinner was going to be real conservative so I just wore a ankle length skirt and a white blouse.

After dinner I spent a couple of hours working on my dress and deiced to get to bed early. "Good night Stephanie." Donna said as she slipped into bed. "Good night Donna." I said. Maybe things will work out after all between the two of us I thought as I drifted off to sleep.

"Wake up sleepy head.' I said as I rolled out of bed. "Leave me alone." Donna said. "You don't want to be late. We have cafeteria duty today.' I said. "I'm coming." Donna said. I wore my black dress that had white roses on it and it had a flared skirt and a front bodice. It went down to just about four inches above my knees. "Why so dressy today?' Donna asked. "I just want to look pretty today." I said. "I see you want to impress that life guard of yours." Donna said. "Why you say that?' I asked. "Because you like girls." Donna said. "I'm just not sure about boys yet." I said. "Are you scared about your feeling?' Donna asked. "No I'm not scared." I said. "I am going to give you some advice. I feel you fall in love with a person not his or her gender. Think about it." Donna said.

Donna gave me a lot to think about as I walked to the cafeteria. "Welcome ladies. It is so nice to see you. You are a little late." Karen said. "I'm sorry." I said. "Don't let it happen again. Here put this on." Karen said. She then handed me a pink apron that had many ruffles on it. I was sent to the kitchen to begin setting up the table.

After the meal we were assigned to clear the table and then do the dishes. "I don't belive this. I was hoping to have fun." Donna said. "You know it is not that bad. It is only for two days." I said. "Well I don't like it." Donna said. "Why are you always in a bad mood. Don't you like being a girl.' I asked. "It's none of your business.' Donna said. She then threw down her cleaning rags and tore off her apron and stormed off. Some one's in a mood I thought as I finished the dishes.

I was so late to crafts class. "Stephanie your late." Janice said. "I'm sorry I had cafeteria duty.' I said. "That's no excuse. You need to apologize to the girls here. They are here to learn. Now I want you to do what I taught you yesterday and you better do it right." Janice said. I gave a look over to Donna as to say why did you abandoned me. I then did my walk. "Not bad. You are walking a little to fast." Janice said. I then sat down in a chair and then I rose from it. "Not bad. Now go join the others." Janice said.

"As you all know tomorrow is a big day for the camp. We have our first dance with Camp Wildcat. You can look beautiful and walk very feminine but if your voice sounds like a boy people will know who you really are. So today we are going to work on your voice. Like your walking and your sitting you need to do it every day so it becomes second nature to you. For your voice you need to work on raising your pitch now you want to make sure you don't raise it to high. You don't want to sound like a little girl. You want to sound like a young lady. Now I am going to pair you up and you are going to talk with each other. I want you to tell that person your story." Janice said.

"Janice." Donna said. "Yes Donna." Janice said. "I don't want to be partners with Stephanie.' Donna said. "Oh all right." Janice said.

"I'll be her partner." A girl said. She was about five foot four and had red hair that rested on her shoulders. "Thank you. Girls go find a quiet place and begin." Janice said.

"I'm Amy." Amy said. "I'm Stephanie." I said. "It is nice to meet you. Why doesn't that girl like you." Amy asked. "I don't know. She been mean ever since I got here." I said. "Well forget about her. Let's begin." Amy said.

I went first. "My story began when I was twelve. For some reason I had this urge to dress up in my Mom's clothes. The minute I put on the clothes I felt so good. I just couldn't get enough. Every time I was home alone I would dress up in my Mom's clothes. It felt so nice I just couldn't get enough." I said. (Author's note this part of the story is true.) Now back to the story.

"My Mom finally caught me. She came home early and I didn't hear her. I guess I was in dream land. My Mom had the shock of her life when she walked in. She went through the roof. She told me if she ever caught me in her clothes there would be serious trouble. I just couldn't stop. I loved the feelings I had when I was dressed up as a girl. I knew I should have been a girl. I would dream about it all the time. My Mom realized that a lot of her clothes were not in the place she left them I guess I wanted to get caught. My Mom finally had enough and sent me to a doctor. After two appointments the Doctor diagnosed me as a transsexual and after a lot of convincing the doctor convinced my Mom to put me on hormones and sent me to this camp to become a young lady." I said. "Wow what a story." Amy said. "What's yours?" I asked.

"It is not as exciting as yours. You see my parents died in a plane crash when I was very young." Amy said. "I'm so sorry." I said. "It's okay I never really knew them. After they died my Aunt became my guardian. She lived in a very big house and had a very busy social life. She would also wear the most beautiful clothes. One rainy afternoon my Aunt got a silly look on her face. She then asked me if it was okay if I dress you up as a girl. I didn't know what to say. I was shocked but also excited at the same time. I said a very quiet yes and my journey to womanhood began. I felt so alive when I was dressed up and my Aunt knew it. Every weekend we would play our dress up games. I then began to develop my secondary male characteristics and got really depressed. I beg my Aunt to make me a real girl. She finally took me to a doctor and he agreed with me that I should have been born a girl. I have been on female hormones for a year now and I just love it. This is my third summer attending this camp. " Amy said. "You are so lucky." I said as my eyes began to water up. "Look at the cry baby." Donna said. "Hey knock it off." Amy said. "I think it is a good time for a little break." Janice said.

"Why are you so mean to me?' I asked. "Because I can." Donna said as she walked away.

"Okay ladies it is time to work on your dancing. Partner up and take turns being the girl." Janice said. "Would you like this dance?" I asked. "I would love to." Amy said. "I do have to tell you something I have never danced with anyone before." I said. "That's okay I will help you." Amy said. She then placed my arms around her waist and she put her arms on my shoulders and we began to dance. "You are a wonderful dancer." I said. "Thank you but before anything goes to far I need to tell you that I have a boyfriend." Amy said. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to offend you." I said. "That's okay. You are scarred about the dance tomorrow." Amy asked. "You can tell." I said. "Oh yes. Don't worry you are going to have a blast. Now it your turn to be the girl." Amy said. We then switched hands and began to dance. For some reason I felt better dancing this way. I felt so safe and wondered if I was going to feel that way dancing with a boy.

"Ladies you did a wonderful job today. I think you are ready for the dance. If you have cafeteria duty you better move it. Karen hates it when people are late." Janice said.

We hurried to the cafeteria. "You are late again." Karen said. "I'm sorry." I said. "After your lunch duty is over stay behind I have a job I want you to do." Karen said.

Lunch was pretty easy since we had hot dogs. "Donna and Stephanie for your punishment for being late is to mop the cafeteria. Make sure you make it as clean as you can. I suggest you two get started.' Karen said.

"Let's get this over with." I said. "I will do this end and you will do that end." Donna said. I thought it was a good idea the farther apart we were the better. It took us over an hour to finish. "Very good girls. Don't be late to dinner." Karen said. "We won't." I said. "Speak for yourself." Donna said.

I hurried back to my cabin and changed into my tropical push-up bikini that showed off my breasts and the bottom was cut high on my hips. It was the first time I ever wore a bikini. I looked at myself in the mirror and was amazed at what I saw. I just couldn't belive that I could look good in a bikini.

I was heading to the lake when I heard a voice. "Hey wait up." Donna said. "Yes." I said. "Oh it's you. I didn't reckonize you." Donna said. "You want to go to the lake." I asked. "No I'm fine." Donna said. "Suit yourself." I said.

"Hello dear. You want to go water skiing today." Stephanie asked. "I'm not sure." I said. "Come on. No one wants to do anything this week. I am so bored." Stephanie said. "I guess they are just excited about the dance tomorrow." I said. "Your not looking forward to it." Stephanie said. "I'm a little scared.' I said. "There is nothing to be scared about. You are going to have a blast. Let's take your mind off things by doing a little water skiing." Stephanie asked. "You know I have never been water skiing before and I think it will be fun." I said. "That's the spirit." Stephanie said.

After a couple of tries I got the hang of it. It was so much fun as I skied across the lake.

"Have fun?' Stephanie asked as we pulled up to the dock. 'It was a blast." I said. "I'm glad you had a good time. I will see you at dinner.' Stephanie said.

When I return to my cabin I saw Donna taking a nap. I took a quick bath and headed to my cabin to dress for dinner I changed into my sliver shimmer dress that tied in the back and was cut low across my shoulders. It also showed off my shoulders which I loved since it showed off my deep dark tan I was getting.

"Donna you don't want to be late." I said. "I don't want to go tell them I'm sick." Donna said. "Have it your way." I said. I then headed off to the cafeteria.

"Where is your roommate?" Karen asked. "She is feeling a little sick tonight." I said. "I hope she feels better. You do know that is means more work for you." Karen said. "I understand." I said. "Okay now get to work." Karen said.

After dinner it took me forever to finish the dishes. At nine o'clock I headed back to my cabin. I was hoping to get a good nigh sleep. Tomorrow was going to be a big day for me. I was going to attend my first dance.

"Are you feeling better?' I asked. "A little." Donna said. "Here I saved you some food." I said. "Why are you being so nice to me?" Donna asked. "I guess I am just a sucker for punishment." I said. "That's funny." Donna said. "Make sure you eat something. Tomorrow is going to be very busy." I said. "I'm not going to the dance." Donna said. "Why not. I thought you loved dancing with boys." I asked. "Leave me alone." Donna said. She then rolled over and fell back asleep.

What's her problem I thought as I began to remove my dress. I then noticed a picture under Donna's bed. It was a picture of Donna and a boy who seemed very much in love. There was some wring on it which read 'Love you always Jake'. She must miss her boyfriend. I then got an idea in my head. I quickly took the picture and headed out the cabin.

"Karen can I talk with you." I asked. "Sure that is why I'm here." Karen said. "Can you find this boy." I said. I then showed her the picture. "Who is that?" Karen asked. "He's name is Jake. He is Donna's boyfriend. I think he attends Camp Wildcat." I said. "I will see what I can do." Karen said. "Thank you." I said.

I was still nervous when I fell asleep but I felt good. It feels good doing something good for someone.

The camp was a buzz on Wednesday. We were all looking forward to the big dance. I was still nervous but I was looking forward to a good time. "Good morning ladies. I see you are all very excited about the dance. I expect you all to act like young ladies. Don't embarrass the camp." Ms. Jones said.

During crafts we spent getting the cafeteria ready for the dance. I was in charge of putting the streamers up. "Hey Donna I think you should reconsider going to the dance. I have a funny feeling you are really going to enjoy it." I said. "I don't think so." Donna said. "Come on be a sport." I said. "I will think about it.' Donna said.

The afternoon activities was shut down so we could get ready for the dance. After a quick bath I began to get ready for the dance. "Come on Donna it time to get dressed. I will make a deal with you. If you go to this dance I will find a different cabin to live in." I said. "You got yourself a deal." Donna said. "Good." I said. I had a good feeling that Donna will be very happy with me after the dance. The dance was a semi formal affair. I deiced to wear my blue velvet strapless dance that hugged my body like a glove and was cut low across my chest. It also went down to about four inches above my knees. I wore my hair up in a French twist to show off my neck. I slipped on my blue three inch heels. "Try this." Donna said. She then took some perfume and sprayed it behind my ears and on my breasts which tickled a little. "Now remember our deal. After this dance you move out." Donna said. "I remember." I said.

The cafeteria looked so pretty. The boys were going to arrive at seven thirty. So it gave us some time to make some last minute changes to the cafeteria. "Ladies the boys have just arrived. Remember to act like young ladies and most important have fun." Ms. Jones said.

After the boys arrived I noticed some of the girls run up to there boyfriends. I was looking at Donna. I wanted to see her reaction when she saw Jake come in. I went over to get a glass of water. "Would you like to dance?" A boy asked. "Sure." I said. I didn't even think about it. "My name is Ben." Ben said. "I'm Stephanie." I said. "Are you okay?' Ben asked. "I'm fine. I'm sorry my head must be somewhere else. What do you want?" I asked. "I want to dance with you." Ben asked. "Sure why not." I said. Ben then took my hand and lead me to the dance floor. As I was walking I was looking for Donna I just couldn't see her. I guess my plan didn't work.

"Are you sure you okay?" Ben asked. "I'm fine. I was just looking for someone." I said. "I see." Ben said. "It's not that way. I was looking for one of my friends. Do you know a Jake." I asked. "I know him." Ben said. "Good." I said. "I go find him for you." Ben said. For the first time since Ben talked with me I got a good look at him. He was six feet three and had the deepest blue eyes that you could get lost in. For the first time in my life I actually checked out another boy. "I thought you wanted to dance." I said. "I do." Ben said. "Then let's dance." I said. Ben then put his arms around my waist and pulled me close to him. I put my arms around his neck and we began to dance. As we danced I felt so safe in his arms. I then rested my head on his shoulders. "You are so pretty." Ben said. "Thank you." I said as I blushed a dark red color. After dancing for a couple of minuets which felt like hours to me we went to get something to drink.

"So what do you do here." Ben asked. "You know just your regular camp stuff. We go swimming and take crafts class. I am making this beautiful dress for the fashion show on Saturday." I said. "Sound exciting." Ben said. "I'm sorry I must be boring you." I said. "No not at all I just love spending time with you. I am so lucky to be with a girl as pretty as you." Ben said. "Oh Ben you are so kind." I said.

Ben then took my hand and lead me back to the dance floor for another fun round of dancing. Amy was so right I felt so safe and happy dancing with Ben. I know I only knew him for a couple of minuets but I felt like I knew him for years. I guess I do belive in love at first sight.

As the dance was winding down I still haven't seen Donna. It was so annoying I so wanted to find out if my plan work. "You want to go someplace quiet." Ben asked. "I would love to." I said.

Ben and I then walked outside. "It is such a beautiful night tonight." I said. "Yes it is." Ben said. I didn't realize it but Ben was looking at me and not the sky. "I have never seen so many stars in my life." I said. "There beautiful." Ben said. Ben then moved next to me and put his hands on my hips. He then pulled me close to him. At that very moment under a full moon is where I got my very first kiss. It was wonderful I felt like I was on cloud nine. I even think I saw fire works go off. It was a moment that I would never forget. We kissed for hours okay a couple of minuets but to me it felt like hours. Like all good things the dance came to an end. We were all so sad to see the boys leave but the good news is that they will return for the fashion show.

I danced all the way back to my cabin. I kept running the moment of Ben kissing me through my head over and over again. I totally forget about Donna.

"What a night." I said as I danced into my cabin. "Stephanie how could I ever thank you." Donna said. "About what." I asked. "You silly girl. You know what I am talking about. I had so much fun with Jake tonight." Donna said. "So he showed up." I said. "Yes he did. I am so happy." Donna said. "That's great. So I can stay." I said. "Of course you can silly. Now tell me all about this boy." Donna asked. "What boy." I asked. "Stop fooling I know that look. Now spill." Donna said. "He's name is Ben and he so cute and an awesome kisser." I said. "How romantic." Donna said. "Oh it was it was night I will never forget. I will remember this night for the rest of my life." I said. "See I told you. All it takes is the right person." Donna said. "You are so right." I said. "I am so sorry. I have been so awful to you." Donna said. "Don't feel bad. I totally understand. If I was away from Ben I would be a grouch also." I said. "Oh Stephanie." Donna said. She then walked over and gave me a big hug.

Donna and I spend the whole night talking about everything under the sun. We got so close. When I finally fell asleep I fell asleep with a huge smile on my face. It was one of the best days of my lives. I meet a boy who I am madly in love with and Donna and I are finally becoming good friends. The only thing that is making me sad is that tomorrow is Thursday. These two weeks are going by way to fast.

Thursday was a complete blur to me. I assume I did some activities but I mostly thought about Ben. Boy am I in love.

Friday was a start to a wonderful weekend. Today we were going to go to the water park and Saturday was the big fashion show. "I can't wait till this weekend. I am so excited." I said. "Me too. I just can't wait to see Jake again." Donna said. "The boys are going to be at the water park today." I asked. "You bet." Donna said. "That's great. Oh my what am I going to wear." I said. I then hurried to my chest of drawers and began to toss my swim suits on the floor. "I am running out of time." I said. "Calm down. Let's go to breakfast first. We will find one when we get back.' Donna said.

After a fast breakfast we returned to our cabins to gather our stuff for a fun day in the sun.

"Wear this one. It is very cute." Donna said. She then handed me a light blue sun goddess bikini that had a tie on top with a peek a boo sun burst and a full coverage bottom that was cut high on my waist showing off my long legs. "Donna you are so right." I said. I quickly put on the suit and grabbed some sun glasses and a towel and headed to the boats.

"You all look very nice today. Now I want you all to behave yourself. Camp Wildcat will be there and I expect you all to act like young ladies." Ms. Jones said. We all boarded the boat and was off.

"Where are they?' I asked. "Calm down they will be here. We have the morning to ourselves. Now go have fun." Ms. Jones said.

The water park was awesome it had many slides of different sizes, a lazy river, and a wave pool. "Let's go to the slides first." Donna said. We spent the whole morning playing on the slides. The boys were going to arrive after lunch. We were all very excited.

"Hello sweetie." Ben said as he got off the boat. "I missed you." I said. I then ran up to him and threw my arms around him and gave him a big kiss. "I missed you too. Oh no." Ben said. "What's wrong?' I asked with a worried look on my face. "It looks like you are getting a little red. Here let me take care of that." Ben said. I then laid down on my towel and Ben began to run his hands all over my back. It felt so good. "You have wonderful hands." I said. "I just love running my hands over your beautiful body." Ben said. After ten wonderful minuets Ben was done.

"Let's go on the slides." Ben asked. "Sweetie can we go on the lazy river. I want to spend some alone time with you." I asked. "Oh all right. The slides are getting crowed." Ben said.

"One raft." Ben said. Ben then hoped in. "Come on sweetie I won't let you get wet." Ben said. "I'm not sure. I don't think it will hold the both of us." I said. "Don't be a afraid I will protect you. Come on it will be fun." Ben said. I then got in and sat on Ben's lap. He put his arms around my waist and I wrapped my arms around his neck and we were off. "It is so beautiful here." I said as we floated around the park. "Yes very peaceful. You have such soft hair." Ben said as he ran his hand through my hair. "Thanks sweetie." I said. I then leaned over and gave him a kiss on his cheek. We ended up going around about five times. It was so much fun. I just loved being in Ben's arms. I felt so safe when he held me.

"Let's go to the slides." Ben said. "I'm right behind you." I said. Ben then reached out and put my hand in his it was so romantic that it caused a big smile to appear on my face. I had to admitted it I was in love.

We rode the slides for over an hour. Sadly our fun in the sun was coming to an end. "I'll miss you." I said. "I'll miss you." Ben said. He then pulled me close to him and gave me a big kiss on the lips. "I will see you tomorrow." Ben said. "You mean you are coming to the fashion show." I asked. "I wouldn't miss my sweetie's modeling debut." Ben said. "Oh Ben what did I do to deserve you." I said. I then gave him another kiss.

"Stephanie we got to go. Stop kissing your boyfriend. You will see him tomorrow." Ms. Jones said. Boyfriend I never thought of Ben as my boyfriend. I just thought him as a boy who I loved spending time with and loved kissing. Who am I kidding Ben is my boyfriend. I don't belive it I have a boyfriend and a cute one. "I'm coming." I said. I gave Ben a final kiss and headed to the boats.

"Girl you are in love." Donna said. "I know and it is so amazing." I said. "Girls I hope you will be ready for the fashion show tomorrow. I highly suggest you spend the rest of the evening and tomorrow making sure everything is ready." Ms. Jones said. Luckily for me my dress was just about done. I haven't picked out a swim suit to wear yet.

The rest of the night was like a mad house with girls working feverishly to finish there dresses. There was defiantly a sense of panic throughout the camp.

"Stephanie can you help me finish." Donna asked. "I would love too." I said. "Good I want to pull it in a little." Donna said. "Donna that dress is amazing. You are going to knock there socks off tomorrow." I said. "Thanks I can always count on you to give me a lift. You are such a positive person.' Donna said. "Thanks I guess it comes from finally being able to live the life I was meant to live." I said. "I guess being a girl is a dream come true for you." Donna asked. "Yes it is. It is not for you." I asked. "Don't get me wrong I love being a girl I guess I have been on for so long that it is the only thing I know." Donna said. "If you don't mind me asking can you tell me your story.' I asked. "I would love to. I guess my Mom always knew I should have been a girl. So when I was six she started dressing me up as a girl and calling me Donna. I really didn't have a choice in the matter." Donna said. "Oh Donna I'm so sorry. I guess you really didn't have a choice in the matter." I said. "Now don't get me wrong I am forever grateful to my Mom. She was right and by the time I hit the age of ten I loved being a girl. I wouldn't change anything about my life. " Donna said. "Thanks for sharing." I said. Donna and I stayed up half the night to make sure we were ready. We wanted to be hot for the fashion show.

The excitement level was at a all time high on Saturday. We just couldn't wait for the fashion show. The show was going to start at four in the afternoon. We were all suppose to report to the cafeteria for the show at three.

"Donna are you going to do your make-up here or at the show." I asked. "I'm going to do it here. Back stage becomes a mad house." Donna said. "Sounds like a good idea. " I said. After Donna and I made sure our make-up was flawless we grabbed the outfits we were going to wear and headed to the cafeteria where the show was going to take place.

We were going to model our swim suits firsts. Stephanie was picked from the staff to go first. I felt it was wrong since she was so beautiful she was going to show us up. I mean how do you follow a perfect ten I thought as I watched her walk down the run way.

I was near the end which was a good thing for my nerves. For my swim suite I wore my blue and yellow tattoo bikini that had a very small top that barely covered my breasts and tied around my neck and had a Brazilian style bottom that was cut high on my thighs. "You can do it." I said. "Who are you talking to?' Stephanie asked. "Myself. I am really nervous." I said. "Well don't be. You are going to do great." Stephanie said. "Easy for you to say. You are gorgeous." I said. "I was extremely nervous but you want know a little secret. Pick out someone in the audience and stare at them. I picked my boyfriend and when I looked in his eyes all my nervousness went away.' Stephanie said. "Thanks for the advice." I said. I sure hoped Ben was in the audience.

The minute I stepped on the run way I looked in the audience and I saw Ben. His face light up and Stephanie was right I wasn't nervous anymore. I was actually having fun as I walked down the run way. I sure felt like a model. I knew I could never be a real model but it is fun to pretend.

"You did awesome." Donna said. "Thanks so did you." I said. For my dress I wore my burgundy velvet column dress that went down to my ankles and was cut low across my breasts. It fit me like a glove. I deiced to wear my hair up in a French twist to give my look a sexier look. I wasn't as nervous as I was the first time sad I walked down the run way. Everyone seemed to really enjoy themselves. The boys really loved seeing there girlfriends in there skimpy swim suits. After the show we had a reception.

"You did an amazing job." Ben said. "Thanks I owe it all to you." I said. I then leaned in and gave him a kiss on his lips. "What did I do?' Ben asked. "You were here. I couldn't have done it without." I said. "Are you thirsty?' Ben asked. "I'm fine. I would like to dance." I asked. "You know we think a lot of like." Ben said. "Oh Ben." I said with a little laugh.

Ben then took my hand and lead me to the dance floor. Ben then put his arms around my waist and pulled me close to him. I rested my hands on his shoulder and we began to dance. "I love you.' Ben whispered in my ear. Just then small tears began rolling down my cheeks. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to upset you." Ben said. "You didn't. I am just so happy." I said as I rested my head on his shoulders. "Girls you are so confusing. I think as long as I live I will never understand you." Ben said. "Oh Ben you are so silly." I said as Ben and I danced the night away.

Sunday was day to relax. The whole camp was shut down. "You know Donna I think when Ben and I get married we are going to have a lot of kids." I said. "You are all ready talking about marriage. You have only known him for a couple of days." Donna said. "Love doesn't have a time frame. I knew the first time I looked into his deep blue eyes that I would spend the rest of my life with him. Oh Donna it just has to be that way. I can't imagine my life without him." I said. "Calm down. Don't get mad at me for what I am about to say. Summer flings don't last long. You don't even know where he lives." Donna said. "Stop being mean." I said. "I'm sorry if I sound mean but I am being honest." Donna said. "I need some air." I said.

I deiced to take a little walk. I headed to the lake. I just loved it there. It was so peaceful. I sat down on the beach and looked over at Camp Wildcat. Maybe Donna was right I thought as I began to cry.

"I'm sorry." Donna said. She then sat down next to me and put her arm around my shoulders. "No your right. It may be just a summer fling for him." I said. "Nonsense I see the way he looks at you. He truly loves you." Donna said. "I hope your right." I said. "Me too." Donna said. We then sat there on the beach looking across at Camp Wildcat and wondered how long our relationships are going to last.

Monday came and the whole camp rushed to the lake. "I see you all want to do stuff. Now in the morning we offer classes like lifeguarding and scuba diving. We have only five days so we better get started." Stephanie said.

"I deiced to take lifeguarding class. I thought it would be so cool to be able to save someone's life. It was a lot tougher than I thought it would be. We swam a ton of laps and learn so many lifeguarding techniques.

"Doing okay." Donna asked at lunch. "Just extremely sore." I said. "I could imagine." Donna said. "I think I am going to take a nap for the next twenty years." I said. "No your not. We are going horse back ridding after lunch." Donna said. "Okay." I said.

I never rode a horse before and I was a little nervous. "Hello ladies my name is Billie and I run the stables here. Now pay close attention." Billie said. She then went through all the different techniques on how to handle a horse. We then changed into our riding pants and hoped on our horse. My horse was a beautiful white stallion. "Listen horse let's make a little deal here. Please don't throw me." I said. My horse then made a horse sound which I took as a good sign. We were then off.

The trail went around the camp. After a couple of minuets I was able to get the hang of it and had to admit to myself that I was enjoying myself. "Camp Wildcat." Donna said as she pointed towards the camp. "I see why you wanted to do this." I said. "You got that right. Maybe we can see Jake and Ben." Donna said. "I think your dreaming." I said. "There is nothing wrong with a little dreaming." Donna said. "No there isn't." I said. Sadly we didn't see our boyfriends.

I was so sore after the ride. I knew I was going to get a great night sleep.

Tuesday was a pretty uneventful day. I took my lifeguarding class in the morning and in the afternoon I convinced Donna to go water skiing. We were all looking forward to Wednesday. We were headed back to the water park to see the boys. The only bad thing about it was it was going to be the last activity between the two camps and we were all ready to make it the best day ever.

I deiced to wear my white string bikini that barely covered my breasts and was cut extremely high on my hips. I know it is not a very practical suit to go on water slides but I wanted to look good for Ben. "Wow Ben is going to go nuts when he sees you." Donna said. "That's the idea." I said. "Now be careful." Donna said. "Ben is a gentleman." I said. "He may be but suit may bring out the animal in him" Donna said.

This time the boys were going to spend the whole day with us. "I missed you." I said. "I missed you more." Ben said as he pulled me close to him and gave me a big kiss on the lips. "Race you to the lazy river." I said. "I am right behind you." Ben said. I didn't run as fast as I could I wanted to be caught. "Don't' ever run away from me again." Ben said as he picked me up. "You got me." I said with a little laugh.

After a couple of times around the lazy river we deiced to work on our tans. My tan was extremely dark but it gave me time to talk with Ben. "Ben I got to tell you something." I said. "Honey you don't have to. I already know the truth about you. Our camp director told us all about you girls and I don't mind at all. I love you way to much to care about your past." Ben said. "Oh Ben you make me the happiest girl in the whole wide world." I said. I then rolled on top of him and rested my head on his chest. I just loved hearing his heart beat. It was so calming. Ben then put his arms around me and rolled me back over. He then began to kiss me on the neck which he gave me a hickey. He then moved to my breasts but before I was able to feel the excitement of Ben Kissing my breasts we were stopped. "That is enough you two." Ms. Jones said. "Ms. Jones." I said. "Ms Stephanie and Ben head over to the lunch table and get it ready." Ms. Jones said. "Yes Ma'am." We both said in unison. We shared a little laugh as we walked over to get lunch ready. Luckily for us Ms. Jones didn't hear us.

Ben and I had to set the table and after lunch we had to clear the tables and wash the dishes and pack them up for the return home. It was a lot of work but it was well worth it.

"Don't go." I said. "I will never leave you. Here is my number and my address." Ben said. "Oh my. I can't belive it." I said as I jumped up and down. "What is it?' Ben asked. "You live five minuets from me. Why haven't I seen you before." I asked. "I just moved there." Ben said. "Oh Ben you made me so happy." I said as I put my arms around Ben and gave him a huge kiss.

I was on cloud nine on the entire boat ride home.

"On Thursday Donna and I had Cafeteria duty but I didn't care because I was still thinking about Ben and how wonderful it was going to be able to spend a ton of time with him.

Friday was a very sad for all of us. We all knew that our time at camp was coming to an end. "Come on Ms. Jones. Please invite them." We all pleaded. "I'm sorry girls but they are very busy today. The water carnival will go on without them. Now I don't want hear another word about it." Ms. Jones said.

The water carnival was a lot of fun. We played many games like sand volleyball, water balloon tosses, and relay races. We even had a swim suit contests which wasn't very exciting without the boys to cheer us on.

There were a ton of sad faces at the closing ceremonies. We all had so much fun theses past weeks. We learned so much and got very close to each other. We were like a big family. We received a picture book that had a ton of pictures in it from all the wonderful activities we did at camp and of course we got to keep all the clothes we made.

"I don't want to go home." I said. "Me either." Donna said. "I'm sorry girls but it time for you to leave. You can always come back next year." Karen said. "There is not doubt in my mind I will be back." I said. "Me too." Donna said. We then gave each other the biggest hug in our lives. I know Donna and I got off to a rocky start but we have become the best of friends and it was awful to say good-bye to her.

As the van drove away from Camp Make-up I looked back at the wonderful place that makes dreams come true.

Epilogue

The minute I got off the plane my Mom realized that I was serious about this girl stuff. After many long tearful nights she finally accepted me as her daughter.

I had my surgery the summer after I graduated from High School. My mom was by my side the whole time.

Donna and I have remain the best of friends. We call each other every day and at least once a month we visit each other. We return to Camp Make-up for the next two summers before we became part of the staff. We are best friends to this very day.

Ben and I relationship only got stronger. He has been very helpful with my Mom accepting me as her new daughter. My Mom feel in love with him the first time she meet him. Ben and I both attended the same high school and college and got married a year after we graduated from college and true to my word at camp we have adopted six kids.

I am so happy now and I owe it all to Camp Make-up a place where dreams really do come true.
